Lin Ze struggled twice more, but the rope didn't move at all, but tightened even tighter.
He sighed, gave up struggling, and began to look at the cabin.
The cabin was not big, with four iron walls and a ceiling so low that he would probably hit his head when he stood up.
A yellowed nautical chart hung on the wall, its corners softened by moisture.
There were several wooden boxes stacked in the corner, and an extinguished lantern was placed on the lid, which was the one Bados used in the garage.
The whole room was filled with the smell of diesel and salted fish, which made me a bit heady after smelling it for a long time.
"Don't bother, it's a rope made of snakeskin and Devil's Snare. The more you struggle, the more it will burrow into the flesh." Bados turned his back to him and continued to peel the pile of artichokes. The sound of the knife cutting across the roots of the plant made a rhythmic sound.
"Move your muscles and bones." Lin Ze said harshly.
"You are quite thoughtful." Bados laughed.
"Can I give you a drink of water? My throat is about to smoke."
Bados put down the knife, grabbed a tin water cup from the table, walked to the bed, and brought it to Lin Ze's mouth.
Lin Ze took a few sips, and the water smelled like iron. Fortunately, it could soothe his throat that was about to smoke.
"Thanks."
"You're welcome. I'll do an experiment on you later. I hope you can cooperate."
"..." Lin Ze almost choked on the water he just swallowed.
"Is it so direct?"
"Isn't it better to just do it? It won't make everyone tired." Bados sat back at the table, picked up the freshly cut rhizome, and looked at the light.
"That... Mr. Bados."
"Huh?"
"Can I ask what experiments you plan to use on me? It will help me mentally prepare." Lin Ze tried every means to divert Bados's attention, while slowly mobilizing the magic power in his body.
Just...
The magic power seemed to be suppressed by something, and it didn't obey his orders at all.
Oops, I almost forgot that this guy has the metal ring that can suppress the magic of wizards...
Bados put the white rhizome in his hand into a stone mortar, picked up the pestle and started pounding it.
"A new type of Potions is still in the experimental stage. As for its specific effects... you still don't know."
"Can I still see the sun the next day after I'm done?"
"It depends on your fate."
"..."
Lin Ze fell into silence.
"Then can you tell me, how did you deal with that blond man?"
Bados kept pounding the medicine, "Locked in the bottom cabin, it's a little worse than you. I stuffed a dead mouse in his mouth to prevent him from screaming."
"..."
Well, poor Tom, I don't know if he was awake at this moment, would he be angry? Or angry? Or angry?
It seems that Bados does not know that the man has been possessed by Tom, but... even so, this cannot be the key to his escape.
Lin Ze took a deep breath and decided to chat with this pervert Potions Master first to stall for time.
"Mr. Bados, I have always wanted to ask you a question."
"Say."
"Why did you want to help Death Eaters in the first place? With your ability, you can make a good living on your own, right?"
Bados's hand that was pounding the medicine paused for a moment, then continued to pound it.
"Money."
"That's it?"
"Otherwise?" Bados looked back at him.
"Research is very expensive, especially the kind of research that is not recognized by the mainstream Wizarding World. The money given by Dark Lord is generous and the requirements are simple. I think it is quite suitable."
"Now that Dark Lord has fallen, what are you going to do next? You can't just float on the sea forever."
"It's none of your business."
This bullshit is none of my business. I'm going to be experimented on by you soon, and it's none of my business!
"Um... Mr. Bados, is there a possibility that the person in front of you is an invisible rich man who takes advantage of his money?"
"What do you mean?"
"It means, I can provide money to support your research, what about it? Put me down and let's chat?"
Bados rolled his eyes, "Although I am obsessed with research, it does not mean that I am an imbecile. You are the experimental specimen that I finally found. I advise you not to think about running away."
Damn it, this villain has a brain!
"Okay, done." Bados poured the mashed mucus into a test tube containing purple liquid with a happy face, and shook it with his hand.
The mucus combines with the purple liquid to give off a faint golden halo.
"Okay, Mr. Lin, congratulations on becoming the first experimental subject of "Dragon King Potion"..."
Just when Bados approached Lin Ze with a smile on his face, a huge explosion suddenly came from the door of the cabin.
The cabin door was blown away by some huge force. The iron door turned two somersaults in the air and flew past Bados's head.
"Tom" stood at the door with his dark red eyes staring at Bados. The muscles on his face were still twitching irregularly, and his blond hair danced wildly with the magic power overflowing from his body.
"How dare you... stuff a mouse... into my... mouth..."
Looking at the furious "Tom", Lin Ze swore that he had never liked Tom Riddle so much. For the first time in his life, he felt that he was very cute.
Bados reacted quickly. The moment he dodged the flying door, he pulled out the wand from his waist, and the smile on his face disappeared completely.
"It's interesting that you can break free from my restraints."
"Tom" did not reply.
He probably can't speak properly now, and the smell of dead rat in his mouth probably hasn't dissipated yet.
I saw a few vague syllables rolling out of his throat, and when he raised his hand, the sky was full of Confringo.
Bados overturned the table in front of him, and the wooden table was blown into sawdust in mid-air. The broken wood flew everywhere, and it was like a rain of wood fell in the cabin.
"Tom" didn't have a magic wand in his hand, but it didn't stop him from blasting Bados wildly.
Bados resisted while retreating to the experimental bench, where the lantern he used in the underground garage was placed.
"Don't let him get that lamp!" Lin Ze reminded.
"Tom" understood it, and flicked his fingers at the lamp from a long distance away, only to see the lamp fly away, and the glass cover above shattered into pieces with a "crash".
Well done, Lin Ze gave Riddle a thumbs up.
Bados's expression finally changed.
"You broke my most valuable thing."
"Tom" ignored him, raised his hand and the debris on the ground was suspended in the air, shooting towards Bados.
Bados rolled on the spot, and the debris knocked out small holes in the wall. The sea breeze poured in through the holes with a salty smell, and the temperature in the cabin dropped sharply.
Bados laughed evilly, and swept the wand calmly towards the shelves filled with bottles and cans.
The bottles and cans immediately rose into the air and smashed towards "Tom".
Colorful Potions exploded in mid-air, with red, green, and purple mixed together, as if a whole set of paint trays had been overturned.
"Tom" was surrounded by magic power, not even a drop of Potions touched him.
But...
Those Potions were sprinkled on the ground and made a "sizzling" sound, and a thick mist rose from the floor.
"Tom" was caught off guard and inhaled the mist into his lungs. Suddenly, he felt a strong sense of dizziness, causing his body to shake uncontrollably.
