Hydra's First Battle

"We were just talking about... Poison Making and Detoxification."

Tang San answered Xiao Wu's question according to his own understanding.

What he said was not exactly wrong.

Summed up, what Chen Feng had discussed with him really could be described as making and detoxifying poison. It was simply missing a few details.

But to Xiao Wu, those words meant something else entirely.

Her brows shot up, and her tone turned hostile. "Xiao San, do you really enjoy studying Poison Making and Detoxification with her?"

"Huh? I wouldn't say I enjoy it. Mainly, she's easy to talk to, and we were only talking..." Tang San explained in a slight panic, though he did not know why he was panicking himself.

Just then, Chen Feng took over. "Oh, I remember now. We were saying you couldn't play too hard with Miss Meng, or things could go wrong. Right, Xiao San?"

"Uh... right." Tang San felt something was off, but after thinking it over, he could not find anything wrong with it.

After all, Chen Feng really had reminded him that Oscar's Detoxifying Sweet Garlic had limited effectiveness and might not be able to counter particularly potent poisons, telling him to take it easy when making them.

So there was nothing wrong with Chen Feng's words, at least as far as Tang San could hear.

Xiao Wu, however, grew anxious. "You couldn't play too hard? Just how hard do you want to play with her?"

"Well... we have to be safe. Isn't that perfectly normal?" Tang San did not quite understand why Xiao Wu was so agitated.

"You!" Xiao Wu's chest heaved violently a few times, and she pulled her leg out of Tang San's hands. "I can't get through to you! You really are a blockhead. Go be safe with her, then!"
