"Are there only these few potions?" Matriarch Cynthia asked.
"Of course not, this is only the first batch of finished products. Next, the factories under the Baishi Research Institute will do their best to produce a new type of plague bane to help our allies through this difficult time," Cecilia said.
"How long will it take? My clansmen can't hold on for too long. " Mother Cynthia was a little scared. She had already experienced the delaying methods of the Baishi Humans.
Fortunately, Cecilia gave her an accurate answer, "Seven days at most."
Mother Cynthia sighed in relief. According to her observation, the higher the status of a noble, the heavier the weight of their promises. If this sentence came from Knight Marco, she would have some doubts, but Cecilia's credibility was undoubtedly higher.
Of course, this was different from the drows. Due to the belief of the Spider Queen Lolth, the drows were proud of going back on their words and reneging on their promises.
Cecilia looked at Mother Cynthia's relieved expression and added, "Your Excellency, scouts reported two days ago that spies of the remnants of the Sinful Realm have begun to infiltrate the North. I hope you can send someone good at detection to capture them. "
"No problem." At this juncture, Mother Cynthia would certainly agree to any request, at least on the surface.
Cecilia was not fooled. She said, "I don't know how many spies there are, but a conservative estimate is no less than ten teams. I hope you can capture at least half of the number. Otherwise, if they destroy the production of the medicine factory, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deliver the goods on time. "
"… I understand." Mother Cynthia of course heard Cecilia's hidden threat.
"Then I'll take my leave."
After Cecilia left, the two Spider Priestesses behind Mother Cynthia came forward to look at the box of new plague bane potion.
"Can this potion really cure the deadly poison of the undead plague in our bodies?"
"Will the humans deceive us?"
The two Priestesses raised their doubts one after the other.
"No, if they use fake potions to fool us, the result will be that our entire tribe will become the plague undead and become their enemy. This is something that humans don't want to see, and it's also our hidden bargaining chip … Otherwise, that female city lord would have proposed even more harsh conditions. "
Mother Cynthia said slowly, "Marcia, Alba … the first batch of finished products will be given to the two of you first."
The two priestesses' expressions changed slightly.
Marcia quickly said, "Mistress, how could I dare to use the antidote before you?"
The other priestess, Alba, was obviously much more straightforward. "Mistress, if you want to test the efficacy of the medicine, you can find a few ordinary people."
"Do you think I'm asking you to test the medicine?" Cynthia said coldly, "I've already said that there's no problem with the medicine. You actually dare to go against my good intentions? I'll have to reevaluate your loyalty. "
A faint murderous aura spread throughout the tent.
The two priestesses' expressions fell.
Marcia lowered her head and said, "Yes, we didn't know what's good for us and disobeyed Mistress's wishes. I hope Mistress will give me another chance to use the medicine. "
Alba said, "Yes, I'm willing to use the medicine after Marcia to relieve Mistress's worries."
Marcia cursed in her heart, but under Cynthia's coercive gaze, she still obediently picked up a tube of the new plague antidote and drank it in one gulp.
"How is it?" Cynthia asked.
"No … I don't feel anything." Marcia was stunned for a moment and carefully sensed it. Indeed, she didn't feel anything. The pale skin and scars on the surface of her body were still the same.
"The humans used fake medicine to deceive us!" Alba shouted angrily.
Before her voice died away, Marcia's expression suddenly changed. She sat on the ground holding her stomach and screamed suddenly.
"It's poisonous! The humans have ulterior motives. They actually gave us poison! "Alba rejoiced in her heart.
"Shut up." Mother Cynthia was much calmer. She reprimanded, "Look carefully, the livor mortis on the surface of Marcia's body is slowly fading."
That was indeed the case.
It didn't take long for the priestess Sima Marcia to recover from the pain. Her skin regained a trace of luster, and the livor mortis also dissipated a lot. She originally looked like a zombie filled with water, but now she at least looked a little more like a living person.
"How do you feel? This medicine is effective, isn't it? "Mother Cynthia asked.
"It's effective. But the process is very painful. The stimulation of this medicine is very strong … Moreover, I haven't fully recovered. I should need at least two or three more doses of this medicine to completely eradicate the plague virus. "Marcia was rather glad to have survived the disaster.
"Yes, I heard from the female city lord that the previous plague's nemesis medicine needed a few weeks to fully recover. Now, it seems that the new plague's nemesis medicine's effectiveness has improved a lot. You only need to take it a few times to recover. That scholar is really amazing. He's an outstanding talent. If there's a chance, we can pay him a visit and rope him in. "
Mother Cynthia said and then said to the other priestess, "Alba, it's your turn to take the medicine."
After Bosuwei's upheaval suffered a great loss, Mother Cynthia's sense of crisis was very strong. She was afraid that Marcia's test was a coincidence, so she had Priestess Alba act as the experimental sample again.
As for why she chose these two priestesses to test the medicine, and not a few lowly ordinary clansmen? The reason was simple. These two priestesses and Mother Cynthia's strength and bloodline were relatively similar, and the results of the test were the most convincing. If it was a weak ordinary clansman, the results of the test would be different.
Priestess Alba took the medicine, and the results were similar to Priestess Sima Sia's. After the intense pain, the symptoms of the undead plague were alleviated.
This time, Mother Cynthia was relieved.
"Mother, what should we do next? Should we listen to the human city lord's arrangements and capture the scouts of the Sin Domain survivors?"
Mother Cynthia nodded: "Of course we should go, and we can't do it half-heartedly. We have to do our best. Didn't you hear the hidden meaning in her words? If our results don't satisfy them, the supply of the antidote will change. Now, our clan is in urgent need of the human's antidote … We have to listen to her orders. "
"When the undead plague virus is completely eradicated, we won't have to look at the human's face anymore." Priestess Alba said.
"Hmph, when the time comes, we won't just not have to look at her face … …"
Mother Cynthia clenched her fists, "I still want to occupy White Stone City!"
