Poison With Poison

"Alright, then I'll trouble you, Mr. Aiven."

Just then, a calm voice suddenly sounded in the room, startling everyone.

It was Phyllis who spoke. Her face showed no expression, as if those words hadn't come from her.

He actually agreed... Master John's mouth was so wide open it could fit an egg.

"Sister..." Sir Enzo said, his voice trembling.

Phyllis gave him a cold look, then turned to the other apothecaries and said, "As for my words, all the apothecaries present can bear witness."

Seeing this, Apothecary Olay and Master John exchanged a glance and nodded in silence. They were also curious about how Aiven would detoxify the Magical Beast.

Aiven also looked at the decisive Phyllis with surprise. A complete Ironclad Rhinoceros carriage, including the Ironclad Rhinoceros, Beast Gear, and carriage, was worth hundreds of gold coins.

"These are the materials needed for the antidote. Go and prepare them," he said, handing over a piece of paper without revealing his surprise.

This was prepared in advance... Phyllis took the paper, her heart tightening. It seemed this Apothecary Aiven had known they would come to him?

Then, she looked at the materials on the paper and frowned slightly. There were really too many materials listed.

However, apart from the venom of a few Magical Beasts, ingredients like Orange Fruit and Mango Fruit could be obtained.

But Aiven was clearly refining an antidote, yet the materials included venom. This made her realize that a large portion of these materials were not for an antidote.

Was one Ironclad Rhinoceros carriage not enough? Phyllis bit her lip lightly. However, their Viscount family could afford this price.

"Mr. Aiven, some of the materials in the formula may require the help of the apothecaries present," Phyllis said after a moment of thought.

Aiven nodded lightly, indicating that the potion formula could be shown to the other apothecaries.

Just as Phyllis had guessed, only a small portion of the materials in his potion formula were for the antidote.

However, although the paper was prepared by him in advance, this detoxification was indeed an unexpected event. This was originally intended for Link to help him purchase the materials.

Master John and Master Olay's eyes lit up. They took the paper from Phyllis and placed it on the table to examine it.

Orange Fruit, Mango Fruit, Peach Fruit, Lingyu Fruit, Sakura Fruit... Tongtong Fruit.

Looking at the list of fruits among the materials, the two masters quickly focused on Peach Fruit and Tongtong Fruit.

Peach Fruit was a very common detoxification fruit. It could easily neutralize most common poisons.

As for Tongtong Fruit, both of them, as experienced masters, knew about this relatively rare fruit. It could indeed be used for detoxification!

However, relying solely on Tongtong Fruit was not enough to detoxify. It had to be made into a special antidote, a potion formula that even they had not mastered!

This Aiven knows the formula for making an antidote with Tongtong Fruit... The two masters were once again shocked.

Considering the poison that no one could cure, they felt that only this special potent antidote could remove the Luxray's poison.

"I didn't expect Mr. Aiven to possess that antidote formula."

Reluctantly pulling his gaze away from the potion formula, Master John nodded to Phyllis.

Phyllis breathed a sigh of relief and had someone copy the potion formula, handing it to her somewhat depressed younger brother.

While Sir Enzo went to gather the potion materials, the two masters studied the potion formula in their hands again, trying to find the true antidote formula.

Link leaned over to take a look, and after just one glance, he confirmed that the potion also contained a formula for poison.

"Mr. Aiven, why would this formula use Magical Beast venom?"

Master John, unaware of the situation, asked. Although he was sure the potion formula was unusual, wouldn't it be a bit too much to directly list Magical Beast venom...

"Mr. John... Have you ever heard of fighting poison with poison?" Aiven smiled slightly, a mischievous thought suddenly arising in his mind.

The apothecaries were stunned. They chewed on the words, and suddenly felt like they were on the verge of grasping something.

But upon closer thought, they felt like they hadn't grasped anything. Was fighting poison with poison really possible?

Ignoring the apothecaries who were once again studying the potion formula, Aiven crouched down to continue examining the Luxray's condition.

This Luxray's strength had reached the elite level. In his previous world, it would have qualified to compete in the league championships.

Converted to the strength levels of this world, it should be equivalent to a beginner Magical Beast.

According to the classification of knight levels, the Magical Beasts in this world were also divided into beginner, intermediate, and advanced, which was easy to understand.

Yet, such a beginner Magical Beast was on the verge of death so quickly under the Deadly Poison Technique of the little novice Petilil. This showed the power of the Deadly Poison Technique.

Even intermediate or advanced Magical Beasts would be greatly affected if they were hit by the Deadly Poison Technique. If left untreated for a long time, it would also be life-threatening.

"Doll."

The Petilil also came closer, looking at the miserable state of the Luxray. A sense of satisfaction arose in its heart.

I seem to be quite strong now?

The Deadly Poison Technique was truly effective. I wonder how powerful the Leech Seed is. Status effects are truly amazing!

Thus, time passed quickly.

Before long, hurried footsteps could be heard from outside the door.

Perhaps because they were prepared in advance, Sir Enzo quickly returned with the materials from Aiven's potion formula.

"Hmm, the materials are all here," Aiven said, glancing at the materials in his hand.

Although several ingredients were still missing, the magical beast venom and Tongtong Fruit he wanted were among them.

Sir Enzo breathed a sigh of relief at this. He had already sent people to collect the other ingredients, but it would take time, and time was what they lacked the most right now.

After checking the ingredients, Aiven had Sir Enzo take him directly to a quiet room.

The other apothecaries were somewhat disappointed and shook their heads, but potion-making was a very private matter, and they couldn't make unreasonable requests.

Upon entering the room, Aiven first inspected it before placing the Petilil on the table.

The little one blinked its big eyes, watching as Aiven laid out the ingredients one by one, sorting them into categories.

These ingredients were enough for Aiven to concoct several potions, which left him quite satisfied.
