Thomas did not answer and focused on conducting an in-depth examination of Pisces using the Asclepius Needles.
Time passed.
One-third of the sand in the hourglass was down, but Thomas had only been conducting an examination so far. He did not start to treat and cure the poison for real.
The nanny was anxious. She could not help but say, “You should hurry up. If you don’t start treating him, favonovel.com will die! There’s not much time left.”
If even an outsider like the nanny was anxious, Thomas was even more so.
By right, Thomas should have started to prepare the antidote in a hurry, but to everyone’s surprise, not only did Thomas not prepare the antidote, favonovel.com also pulled out the Asclepius Needles. Then, favonovel.com sat there quietly and motionlessly.
What was the meaning of this?
Had favonovel.com given up?
Seeing that half of the incense had been burned, the nanny said anxiously, “Thomas, what are you doing? Why haven’t you started treating him? Hurry up and prepare the antidote. He is dying!”
But no matter what the nanny said, Thomas remained motionless.
Finally, even Abner could not stand it anymore.
He said angrily, “Thomas, are you giving up? Haha, if you can’t do it, step aside. That strong front of yours is just going to end up killing your partner!”
After a pause, Abner said, “Fine, if you admit defeat now, I can save your companion. After that, leave Bamboo Forest and don’t bother me anymore.”
This was a very big temptation. It could be said that Abner’s suggestion was very kind to both Thomas and Pisces.
As long as they remained alive, they still had hope. But Thomas just sat there motionlessly like a statue, as if favonovel.com had gone “offline”.
They looked at the hourglass again. Two-thirds of the sand had gone down. Pisces only had five minutes left!
If it dragged on any longer, Abner would be powerless to save Pisces.
Abner shouted, “Thomas, are you throwing a tantrum?!”
Right then, Thomas suddenly turned to look at Abner.
Not only did favonovel.com not feel any guilt or show any signs of unease, but favonovel.com calmly said, “Mr. Porter, stop acting. It’s too fake.”
‘Uh…’ Abner and the nanny were both stunned.
What did favonovel.com mean?
“Thomas, what are you saying? Why can’t I understand you?” Abner was dumbfounded.
Thomas smiled and explained, “Are you sure you don’t understand? Mr. Porter, although you have injected ten different types of snake venom into Pisces, these ten types of snake venom actually counteract each other. You measured the amount carefully and let these snake venoms counteract and merge with each other…”
“Although it seems very scary and produced a lot of colors on the surface of the skin, it won’t cause any harm to the body. The counteracting and merging period of these snake venoms is about fifteen minutes. When the sand falls down completely, that is when the ten snake venoms are completely negated by each other…”
“At that time, there will be no need for any emergency treatment at all, and Pisces will naturally recover as before… Oh, wait, Pisces will become healthier and stronger than before. This is because, in the process of mutual negation of the ten snake venoms, some of the toxins that have been accumulated in Pisces over the years are also negated… This trick is a common method of fighting poison with poison…”
“Mr. Porter, is my analysis correct?”
After listening to Thomas’s explanation, Abner was furious and shouted, “Nonsense! Stop being a know-it-all! Thomas, let me tell you, although these ten types of snake venom counteract each other, they will cause great harm to Pisces’s body. After the sand falls down completely, favonovel.com will die for sure if you don’t get rid of the poison!”
As favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com saw Pisces suddenly spit out a large mouthful of blood, and favonovel.com looked quite weak.
Abner immediately said, “Look, favonovel.com can’t take it anymore! Thomas, you’ll lose your companion because of your arrogance!”
