"This is over? Great. Ryan, I admire you even more," Paul said happily.
Just as he was happily about to pick the Red Poison Flower, suddenly a dart shot from afar, grazing the skin on the back of his hand.
He felt a sting below,withdrew his hand, and looked back.
It was actually Green,he was angry, "What are you doing?"
Green quickly plucked the red poison flower away.
Paul said, "This is what we just killed the scorpion tail for, it was hard to get, why do you have the right to take it?"
Grimm brought along a dozen or so people dressed in black and wearing masks, becoming arrogant once again, "Who can prove that this snake was killed by you?"
"You have no witnesses, but I am different. The dozen or so people behind me can all testify for me."
Grimm looked at Ryan with a contemptuous gaze, "You didn't bring the Memory Stone this time, right? Let's see how you can resist."
One of Grimm's subordinates said, "Yes, this is a scorpion-tailed snake. Do you think you, a cow with weak attack power, or this useless, worthless human can do it?"
Ryan said, "You're so pathetic, I didn't expect you to be this short on money, not even ten gold coins. Doesn't the city lord usually give you pocket money? Looks like your dad doesn't love you."
Grim felt a pang in his heart, "Damn it, when you're kneeling in front of me begging for mercy, let's see if you still talk to me like that."
Paul sensed something was wrong,immediatelyshifted into a bull and stood in front of him, saying, "You need to leave quickly. The two of us can't be caught by him together. If you leave, we still have a chance to survive, and you can come save me. Get out of here fast."
"Paul, you have no right to make decisions for me, come back now." Ryan shouted.
"Trying to run? Not that easy. Cast the net!"
A large black net was thrown over, Ryan immediately retreated, and Paul, to let him escape, jumped up to meet the net, pushing his body to the limit, continuously expanding, filling the entire net.
Ryan gritted his teeth and left, Paul laughed out loud.
Green's main target this time was Ryan, and seeing him run, he shouted, "Chase him quickly!"
He then walked up to Paul alone and kicked him hard in the face. "Bastard, I'll make you know what it means to be worse off than dead."
"People like you will never understand because you have no heart." Paul spat in his face.
Green kicked him in the abdomen, his expression grim. "When you lose your tongue, I hope you can still say things like that."
Half an hour later.
After everyone had left, Ryan secretly returned to the side of the scorpion tail snake's corpse. If they could sell this snake on the market, the money would be enough to cover both of their tuition fees. But right now, there was no time to worry about that; saving people was the most important thing.
He took out a small bottle he carried with him and drew a small amount of the snake's venom, taking the leaves that had fallen from the red poison flower.
After that, he secretly went to the pharmacy to get a crucible and ground the leaves into a fine powder, mixing it into the venom.
Ryan had read in a book that although the scorpion tail snake's venom was highly toxic, mixing it with the leaves of the red poison flower would produce a hallucinogenic effect.
Since Green actually dared to kidnap his good brother and even stole their loot, he must pay the price.
He, Ryan Smith, would rather fight to the death with Green than be manipulated by anyone.
Edward looked at Ryan with a gloomy face and asked, "I heard Paul was taken away by Mr. Green. Is that true?"
His tone was cold. He glanced at him and asked, "How do you know? Did Green come to warn you?"
"No, the commotion you caused in the forest was too loud, it alerted several teachers. I secretly followed and found outPaul was taken away. I know you're anxious now, so I sneaked a look and found he's locked in the storage room on the second floor. Every 4 hours the guards change shifts. You can sneak in to find him when the guards switch."
"Why should I trust you?" Ryan asked condescendingly.
"Suit yourself, what benefit would I get from lying to you? If you don't believe me, you don't have to go. I'm a simple person. If you defeat me, you're the strongest, and I'll listen to you. Although I don't know what your talent is, but you can beat me in human form, I'm completely convinced." Edward said honestly.
Ryan was unwilling to trust him, but even if it was a trap, he still had to go save him.
Grimm is a very frightening person; he dares not imagine what Paul will go through.
Ryan ran to the storage building,the second floor is very high,and he definitely couldn't jump up there alone. He wanted to move a ladder, but moving the ladder would surely attract the guards' attention.
He didn't want to wait for the guards to change shifts; he had to rescue Paul as soon as possible.
So he climbed up a nearby big tree,and as a result, a bird was startled and flew off from the tree.
The guard suddenly heard a noise at this moment and wanted to come over to check.
He jumped up sharply, stood on the wall, took out the hallucinogenic drug he had just made, opened the bottle, and poured it on the guard's head. After dealing with this trouble, he climbed in through the second-floor window.
After he went in,he found Paultied to a chair,with many bruises and wounds from being beaten, black and blue all over his body.
Paul opened his eye sand saw him, anxiously saying, "Why did you come? Why didn't you go find the teacher?"
Ryan said, "Green is the son of the city lord, is it any use for me to find the teacher?"
Paul gave up, "You should leave quickly, he tied me up just to threaten you."
Suddenly a large iron cage fell from above, enclosing both of them tightly inside.
Green laughed loudly as he walked by and said, "Ryan, I told you long ago, people shouldn't be too clever, the first time I saw you I knew you were a genius, I even told you to be my friend, but you just wouldn't listen, so what else can I do? I have no choice but to kill you."
Grimm said, "I'll make sure you die understanding why. I don't want to duel you. As the son of the city lord, having some minor conflicts with classmates, my dad won't interfere. But if I kill someone, even if it's during a duel, my dad will neglect me because it won't help his votes."
