BXBX NOVEL Chapter 139: Poison Master (3)
Ev if he was writhing in the accidt, ev if he was trying to keep himself awake, he had managed to get used to this poison after almost an hour, James, who still thought that he was still spinning betwe poisons of the same strgth, had no idea how powerful of a poison was now tering his body.
Of course not! After all, his aura and magic protected him in such a way that there was no way to explain it with the laws of the tower. Poison started to disappear as soon as it reacted with magic, rotting and turning to dust, so most mages tried to avoid poison as much as possible, but James, of course, did not know that.
So James had be exposed to such poisons one after the other for almost 7 hours. His magic had stopped running away from the poison and started to attack the poison, becoming accustomed to it.
This was the thing that helped him the most in becoming the th poison master.
After all, poison was a type of magic and once you started to control it and somehow saved yourself from dying, you could master it.
It was considered a miraculous evt, and it was se as something of great beauty.
Noah was preparing to give James the next poison, yet at the same time, he seemed to be hesitant, unsure if he was changing poisons too fast because he was excited.
[What is it? Isn\'t it too late to hesitate?]
Wh Noah saw the message window from Nyx, he tossed his hair back with his hand and th said with an angry expression, "I was hoping it would be a little quiet, I was wondering if I was increasing the level of the poison too fast."
Suddly, however, the liquid in the cauldron began to change.
His anger at Nyx seemed to have forced Noah to make a sudd move. James\'s expression showed the pain he was in, red as a tomato from squeezing himself.
The poison in the cauldron was bubbling, and a lot of vapour was coming out of the poison. This liquid had such a disastrous and disgraceful appearance that anyone looking at it could recognise that it was poison just by looking at it, ev if they did not know what was inside.
James was writhing in the cauldron, it was such a bad pain that James would prefer to be punched a thousand times by the Fall God than the pain he was suffering right now.
At the same time, he began to exhale audibly for all to hear and realised that his magic and aura were slowly beginning to fade as he began to fuse with the new poison with each passing second.
"HAH!"
"HAH!"
"HAH!"
"HAH!"
"HAH!"
His breathing was getting louder and louder each time and it was drawing all the atttion to him, yet Noah was sure that James would make it, he just had to hang on.
The poison Noah had giv him now was almost five times stronger than ever before, the poison itself could knock a Behemoth down and kill it.
Ev if James wasn\'t in that state, he was still in a terrible state, it was just that his body, or rather his aura, his magic and his accompanying body were adapting to the poison incredibly fast.
This was what prevted him from dying at the momt because this was the poison that Noah had planned to maximise and that would paralyse James, although now Noah was busy preparing a bigger poison.
James looked like he was going to suffer a lot more.
-----
"He\'s already killed two. How many more do we need to bring back to kill that bastard Nyx\'s dog!"
In the darked room, glowing pupils constantly looked a and spoke as if they could see others. Ev though the room was in darkness, other glowing eyes appeared and the voice of one of them could be heard:
"If that idiot Sopdu hadn\'t made him more promint, if he hadn\'t gott stronger, we could have killed him! Stupid low-level gods meddling in our business as usual!"
Wh someone else said these words, there was a growling sound in the whole room, and after a few seconds another voice was heard:
"There\'s nothing to do. If we want to control the gods, this is what we have to do, we can\'t ev go down to the th floor because of some deal we don\'t ev know where it came from. To take control we must destroy the lower floors, we have only used two but there are thousands more waiting to be used."
As this voice rang out in the room, no one made a sound, and only the glowing eyes moved.
These seemed to be the people who used the Fall Gods.
-----
"Are you sure you want me to increase the poison? This is the third most powerful poison I have, this could kill you James, I\'m serious." Noah said suddly, seeming to shock James, who had oped his eyes to look at him.
James was breathing in and out deeply and wondering whether he should accept this or not. He thought that he should accept the possibility of such a developmt because he did not know wh he would catch such a developmt again, but at the d of the day, he could not accept that there was such an evt as a vegetative state.
It had be almost 5 days, it would be the last time this poison was used, James had be travelling above the th floor for 4 or ev 5 months, so long that he had already turned 4 years old, the fact that so much time had passed since he tered the tower filled him with pride.
It must have suddly occurred to him that he had never run away from any danger in all that time, for he looked at Noah with shining, lively eyes and shook his head.
He wanted to embrace the poison.
