"What's this?" Harold looked at the bottle of bright red liquid. An urge rose from deep within him the moment he set his eyes on it."It's a drug," explained Carl. "If you drink it, I believe you'll be able to regain your strength, but the effects only last for about three minutes. Therefore, you either have to defeat your enemy by then, or prepare to be killed by your enemy.
