Hill quietly met the gaze of his Tower Spirit, trying to move Liszt's frozen heart with his big eyes full of pure innocence.
This potion was genuinely fascinating!
More importantly, after sensing it a little, he found that the materials Jijiyaya used were minerals combined with plant matter!
It was rare to find such a highly toxic substance with such unusual properties that he could handle directly.
How could Hill possibly restrain his hands?
Shar and Lathander watched with great interest as Little Bear personally put on this confrontation game before them.
