"Are you alright, Master Bennett?" Master Alfred looked worriedly at Abel, who was lying in a pool of blood. He jumped down from his giant wolf and asked.
"Thank you for saving me, Master Alfred. I'm fine!" Abel was very grateful for Master Alfred's help. If Master Alfred was just a little bit late, he would have to expose his power and use a wizard spell to attack the assassin.
"This arrow is poisonous!" Master Alfred squatted down to check on Abel's injury, but he was shocked when he saw the black glow on the iron arrow.
By that point, Abel's golden combat qi had suppressed the poison in his body. He could finally control his body. He pressed on the ground with one hand and stood up.
"Master Bennett, don't move. The poison will spread to your heart faster!" Master Alfred quickly held Abel and said.
"Master Alfred, it's nothing. It's just a little bit of poison." Abel said gratefully as he waved his hand.
Master Alfred took out a wooden brush from his portal bag and gently brushed the iron arrow a few times. He then put it under his nose and sniffed. His eyes were filled with disbelief.
"It's the poison of the dark scorpion. That's right. But how can you still move after being poisoned?" Master Alfred asked in shock as he looked at Abel, who was bandaging his wound.
"Master Alfred, I don't know much about poisons. What is this dark scorpion poison?" Abel also felt that this poison was very powerful. His golden combat qi could easily get rid of most poisons, but this one could only be suppressed in his body. There was no way to get rid of it in a short period of time.
"I have a bottle of antidote here. Although it can't get rid of the poison, it can alleviate some of it. Drink it first!" Master Alfred did not answer Abel's question. Instead, he took out a bottle of golden potion from his portal bag and handed it to Abel.
Seeing Master Alfred's caring gaze, Abel took the golden potion and opened the cap. He poured the potion into his mouth. Master Alfred let out a long breath of relief.
"The poison of the Dark Scorpion is the poison contained in the stinger of the Dark Scorpion. The Dark Scorpion is not a creature of the Double Moon Forest. It is a poisonous insect from the extreme north. Even if it comes into contact with the poison, it can poison a giant bear!" At this point, Master Alfred looked up and down at Abel, as if he still couldn't believe that Abel's body could withstand the Dark Scorpion's poison. He continued, "It seems like these assassins want to kill you. This Dark Scorpion's poison rarely appears in the Double Moon Forest. Even in the extreme north, it's a type of poison that almost has no cure. The 'antidote' I just gave you can only alleviate the effects of the Dark Scorpion's poison. It's best if you return to the Alchemy Union with me, and we can think of a solution together!"
"Master Alfred, there's no need. This poison doesn't affect me much. I'll be able to get rid of it within a day!" Abel said confidently.
Master Alfred wanted to persuade him again, but when he thought of Abel's identity as a Master Alchemist, he gave up. If he wasn't completely confident, he wouldn't play with his life.
"Master Alfred, do you know the identity of these assassins?" Abel thought of the terrifying black flames and felt his heart palpitate.
"Although they've been blown to pieces, from their performance just now, it goes without saying that they're all Dark Elves. A bunch of gutter rats!" Master Alfred gritted his teeth and scolded angrily.
At this moment, a figure riding a giant wolf appeared in front of the Alchemist Guild. It was a Druil riding a giant wolf. Abel could feel the powerful aura of this elf from about ten meters away. It was a mid-level Druil.
"Master Alfred, you're here too. Did you do this?" An elf Druil bowed to Master Alfred and asked.
"Yes, Captain Lionel. A bunch of Dark Elf rats. How dare they attack a Master Alchemist!" Master Alfred replied in a deep voice.
The Druil named Lionel was shocked. Attacking a Master Alchemist was not a small matter. He turned to look at Abel and saw the honorary Master Alchemist medal and the lord medal on Abel's chest. Then, he saw the bloodstains and bandages on Abel's waist and legs. He couldn't help but step forward and bow. "Master, it's our negligence. Don't worry, we'll definitely give you and the Alchemist Guild an explanation. I still have some things to ask you. Do you have time now?"
"Captain Lionel, I'm injured, so I'll take my leave first. If you have any questions, you can ask at my residence!" Abel didn't say much. The most important thing now was to hurry back and find a way to cure the poison. He turned and got into the silver carriage.
"Let's go back!" Abel said to the half-elf coachman, Archie. The half-elf coachman had recovered from the shock, so he quickly drove the carriage forward.
"This …" Captain Lionel still wanted to say something, but when he saw Abel get on the silver carriage, he didn't say anything.
As the captain of the city guard of Angstrom City, of course, he recognized the silver carriage. It was the exclusive carriage of the Grand Ducal Palace. Only a few very important people in the Grand Ducal Palace could use it. If the Master Alchemist who just left was in this carriage, it meant that this Master Alchemist's identity was not normal.
Captain Lionel seemed to have thought of something, and his face changed. He quickly turned and asked Master Alfred, "Master Alfred, what's the name of that Master Alchemist who just left?"
"Captain Lionel, that's our Alchemist Union's new honorary Master Alchemist, Master Bennett!" Master Alfred replied.
"So it was him. This is troublesome!" Captain Lionel knew this Master Bennett. He even had a bottle of elven perfume made by this Master Bennett.
At this moment, he looked around and saw the small ballistae on the two carriages. His face was instantly filled with anger. This was no longer a simple attack by the Dark Elves. The Elven nobles must have been involved. Otherwise, why would such military weapons appear here?
A team of city guards had already arrived on their battle deers. Under the command of the team leader, they sealed off the scene, and specialized city guards began to collect information at the scene. When Captain Lionel saw that the city guards had taken over, he hurriedly gave a few instructions. He then turned to Master Alfred and said, "Master Alfred, this is a serious matter. I have to go to the Grand Ducal Palace to report the details of the incident.
After he finished speaking, a white light flashed in Captain Lionel's hand, and his body disappeared from the scene.
Abel's face was a little pale due to the loss of blood. The half-elf coachman Archie knew the situation was urgent, so he drove the carriage with all his might. Luckily, this carriage was a special carriage in Angstrom City. No matter if it was a noble's carriage or an elf's carriage, they would all make way. It didn't take long for the carriage to reach the mansion.
"Master, what happened to you?" Steward Brewer saw Abel covered in blood and couldn't help but ask in shock.
"I'm fine. I need to open the defense circle. Don't let any elves disturb me!" Abel said and quickly returned to the master's building.
He turned on the defensive circle and the seclusion circle of the main building. Afterward, he took out the "Akara tent" from his personal storage box. If he wanted to get rid of the Dark Scorpion's poison completely, he would have to synthesize a high-quality antidote.
Luckily, the alchemy union had already bought all the ingredients. Abel used the Akara's alchemy bottle in less than an hour to make 9 blue quality antidotes. However, he didn't stop. The golden antidote didn't have much effect. Although it wasn't the golden antidote synthesized by the Hradik cube, it still showed how scary the dark scorpion's poison was.
He put the 9 blue "antidotes" into his Horadric Cube and combined them 4 times. In the end, he got a bottle of "antidote" that was flashing with dark gold lightning.
