“What a coincidence,” said Bruno as he motioned to the people he had come with. “I’m thinking of bringing a few friends in to widen their horizons too.”They exchanged smiles and seemed to understand what each other

Raphael was involved now, so Kane did not dare to do anything rash. He gritted his teeth and glared furiously at Carl. "Carl, how dare you slander Heath like that! Are you trying to become enemies with the Romarins?"Joel scoffed as he stood next to Carl. After glistening moons flew up from behind his back, the pressure exerted on Kane increased manyfold. "Kane, we've barely seen anything of this footage and none of us know what's going on yet. How are you so sure that Carl is slandering Heath?"What Joel said made sense. Everyone turned to look at Kane, suspicion clear in their eyes. Kane's expression flinched several times but he could not answer Joel at all.Meanwhile, the Recording Fly was not affected by the tension below at all and continued replaying the footage it had captured of Heath and Colin talking to one another. Their voices could be clearly heard by everyone in the tower, making their faces pale as they gasped in shock.It never crossed any of the
Chapter 139
The fact that King Harold had personally invited Carl to become one of his loyal subjects was surprising, since the king normally left such matters to his subordinates. Yet, it seemed only natural for the king to do so. That giant beast from the Abyss was valuable beyond measure and as the person with the formula that could turn this monster into treasure, Carl was most certainly worthy to be called upon by the king himself.Besides, the king had already said before this that the one who won the apothecary competition would not only receive a large amount of cash, but would also be conferred a title. Harold was just going through with what he had promised.Everyone could already imagine what would happen next. Carl would pledge his allegiance to the king, be accorded the title of baronet and end this competition beautifully with an elaborate celebration banquet within the palace.Of course, there were some who exchanged shifty glances. They, too, needed the drug that

Besides Joel, everyone in the tower was shocked that Carl wanted Joel to drink the contents of the bottle. They even wondered if Carl had gone mad. How could he ask Joel to drink something like that?Joel was not only the general of the royal guards, but he was also a member of one of Tooda Kingdom’s five most powerful families and he was also a formidable Moonlight Knight. Doing anything that might offend or hurt a man of such high standing would result in disastrous consequences.In fact, immediately after Carl made this request, Joel had gotten angry. He glared murderously at Carl for an instant and genuinely felt offended.However, two seconds later, he calmed back down again. He was being watched by so many spectators and competitors, so he could not back out of this, regardless of why Carl had made this request. At the same time, as long as Carl had not truly gone mad, Joel did not think that the young man would ask him to do anything that would prove detr
Chapter 137
Carl observed the reaction for a while and felt that Phineas’s line of logic was actually the right one. Phineas had made an extremely powerful poison, which threatened to break the structure of the blood down. That was why the evil energy inside the blood was fighting back so hard.However, the harder the blood fought, the more it proved that the Phineas’s poison was actually effective. Before long, the blood had been broken down and disappeared, leaving nothing but the poison behind in the bowl.Lawrence’s face lit up and he smiled brightly as he said, “Master Phineas, you’re a true expert! You are definitely going to…” He caught sight of Bradley and cleared his throat halfway through his sentence before changing his choice of words, “It’s quite probable that you’ll become the champion!”The two foreigner apothecaries who had been the winners of the first batch looked disappointed. Phineas’s po

Dorothy glared unhappily at Carl. “Weren’t you going to use my formula to make the drug I told you about? Why are you going back on your word now?”Carl had a twinkle in his eye as he said, “I was just listening to your suggestion. I didn’t say I was going to listen to it.”“If you weren’t going to listen, why did you tell me to get those ingredients?” Dorothy gnashed her teeth angrily.“That’s because I can use the ingredients you were going to get.” Carl did not give Dorothy any chance to use her formula and stopped her from arguing further. “Stop wasting time. Help me to process these herbs now.”Dorothy scoffed and was clearly annoyed, but she started preparing the ingredients anyway.During this time, Carl also went to get more ingredients, then set up his cauldron in an unhurried manner.Carl and his team were considered slow compared to the rest. That was because

The transformation in the Winged Demonic Wolf shocked and unsettled everyone. Many got ready to defend themselves in case the wolf suddenly lost control and began attacking them.Dorothy was also wary as she stood behind Carl and said with a glint in her eye, “Carl, don’t worry. That Baron Bradley was probably trying to get his magical beast to absorb the blood, but it looks like his attempt wasn’t successful. The wolf looks more like it’s trying to protect itself from the blood.”The cyclone of knives gathered around the wolf and gave off a powerful energy.Just then, the wolf suddenly opened its mouth and spat the one drop of purplish-black blood it had swallowed earlier right out.Bradley immediately got out a bottle to store the blood.The cyclone disappeared after that and the wolf was drained of all its energy. It lay limply at Bradley’s feet and whined unhappily.Bradley consoled it for a moment, then began ins
