Chapter 1047: Chapter 967: Medicinal Herbs, or Axes?_1 Chapter 1047: Chapter 967: Medicinal Herbs, or Axes?_1 “What’s wrong with you all?”

Connar looked at the crowd of people sprawled across the floor, somewhat perplexed.

She glanced again at Victoria lying on the ground, blinked her eyes, and then for some reason, threw herself backward, landing with a “thud” next to Victoria.

She had quickly become part of the group.

Of course, she did not waste the roasted fish in her hand while lying down, so Connar ate the remaining grilled fish in big bites, munching away…

Only after swallowing it contentedly, did she casually turn and look at Victoria.

“…” Victoria twitched all over her body while rolling her eyes, speechless.

‘Greedy little fat dragon!’

Connar blinked her eyes and finally realized that something was wrong.

She ran up to Victoria and shook her shoulder, puzzled: “Sister, what’s wrong with you?”

Victoria, looking at the plump dragon tail shaking unconsciously behind Connar, sighed inwardly.

She now understood what had happened:

The [Poisonous Wolf] was indeed poisonous.

Even though they had been very careful not to touch potentially poisonous parts or glands, only roasting leg meat and breast meat, those places turned out to be toxic too!

However, at the end of the day, Connar is a dragon.

Even if she can’t transform into a great dragon now, her physical physique and resistance to toxins isn’t something the ‘Ordinary People’ (the players) can match.

The food that could paralyze them, and even kill them with poison, was for Connar, just a snack…

At this point, Victoria, being pulled and shaken by Connar, could only think one thing:

“How am I not dead yet?”

This was also the mindset of most players on the scene.

Players on the ground, dogs collapsed all over – be it the old hunter or a player holding Milkshake, no one hesitated to share their food with their pets.

The result was that everyone fell at once.

Mechanoid Mo Niang seemed fine-they could eat and drink normally, but their way of “digesting” food differed from people, so they were unlikely to suffer from “food poisoning”.

Now they sat worriedly next to the players on the ground, at a loss for what to do.

Just then, two more players were lured by the smoke and found their way here.

As soon as Shuihua came out of the forest, her “Angel’s Halo” above her head, and saw the bodies of the players lying all over the ground, she immediately halted.

Not only did she stop moving forward, but she also swiftly retreated three steps to hide behind a tree.

——So many “bodies”, something big must have happened!

The Poisonous Wolf who had been following Shuihua all along, smartly moved forward, defending her in front of this unknown enemy, baring its teeth.

Brother on the other side, upon seeing the tragic scene on the field, turned and ran without a word!

Inside, Yi saw Brother run away and couldn’t help but shout in his heart: “No!

Come back!

Help!”

“If it’s too much to ask, just kill me!”

“Anyways, I’ve already saved my progress here!”

However, the unfamiliar Brother couldn’t hear Yi’s thoughts, and he ran away like a puff of smoke.

Shuihua cautiously peeked out half her face from behind the tree to observe the situation.

Meanwhile, Connar, who was shaking Victoria, twitched her ears slightly, then turned her head, and looked in Shuihua’s direction.

Seeing Shuihua’s face, she immediately waved to Shuihua excitedly: “Sister~ over here!”

Shuihua saw Connar and immediately waved back: “Connar?

Come here quickly!

It’s dangerous over there!”

But Connar stayed with Victoria, unmoved.

Anxious, Shuihua reached up and touched the floating [Angel’s Halo] above her head, gritted her teeth, and ran out from the shelter of the forest.

——Many players were testing these days, experimenting with the items and effects given by individual achievements, to see if they still applied in Pandora.

In the difficult situation of being unable to bring any resources along, these achievements and effects were the last safeguard.

Thus, Shuihua also tested this halo, and to her surprise:

This stuff really works!

She too encountered poisonous wolves in a graveyard.

But she only encountered two, and these two wolves noticed Shuihua, but didn’t attack her.

Instead, they halted their steps and laid down on the ground.

The way they acted was as if they were inviting her to ride on them.

One of them was even eagerly sticking out its tongue at Shuihua.

In a blink of an eye, the ferocious wolf transformed itself into a docile big dog.

With courage, Shuihua approached and petted the wolf’s head that was sticking out its tongue.

Then, this wolf followed her and didn’t leave her side.

It followed her to the base of the smoke signal.

When Shuihua ran out to “save Connar,” the poisonous wolf also ran with her, protecting her side.

After rushing to Connar’s side, Shuihua, without any hesitation, picked up Connar, placed her on the back of the wolf, and turned around to run back into the forest.

The entire process took less than 10 seconds.

It was done in one go.

Victoria lay on the ground, watching as Shuihua approached her and then ran off, ignoring her while selfishly taking Connar away…

“Oh!” Connar found riding on the wolf to be fun, but she still dutifully explained the situation to Shuihua –

“Everyone was eating, but then they suddenly collapsed.”

Upon finishing her statement, she led Shuihua over to Victoria, who was still anxious.

‘You came back?’ Victoria greeted Shuihua with her eyes.

Shuihua felt a little embarrassed: “I didn’t see you earlier…

I didn’t step on you, did I?”

Victoria rolled her eyes downwards, hinting for Shuihua to look down.

Shuihua then shifted her gaze, and saw a fresh paw print on Victoria’s belly.

Obviously, she didn’t step on Victoria, but her wolf did…

“So…

you were poisoned?”

Victoria rolled her eyes: ‘Isn’t this obvious?’

Shuihua scratched her cheek, contemplating.

She then took her backpack off, rummaged through it, and held out both her hands to Victoria –

In her left hand was a silver axe and in her right hand were several strange green plants.

She motioned to Victoria, then asked: “Which one do you choose?”

‘Medicinal herbs?’ Victoria was a bit confused.

But this time, Shuihua didn’t understand her eyes, instead she directly said: “So you choose this?

Wait a moment.”

After that, she cut up the plants on a makeshift wooden “cutting board” by the bonfire, poured the chopped plants into a wooden cup, shook it evenly, and then turned around to hand it over.

“Victoria, it’s time to take the medicine.” Shuihua propped Victoria’s head and helped her take a sip.

While taking the medicine, Victoria was thinking: ‘As expected of Shuihua, her luck is remarkable!

She actually found some local medicinal herbs!’

However, as soon as the “potion” went down her throat, Victoria immediately opened her eyes wide –

There was an uncontrollable, severe pain in her belly!

At the same time, a strong feeling of nausea surged!

‘Is this…

an emetic?’

Victoria had this thought in her mind, but before she could vomit it out, her vision turned black and she died on the spot.

Little Connar turned into a beam of light and disappeared on the spot.

Watching Victoria be revived and leave, Shuihua nodded: “Euthanasia is indeed more dignified than being axed to death.”

She glanced down at the cup in her hand.

Victoria only took one sip, and there was still a lot left in it, so Shuihua raised her medicine cup towards the incapacitated players scattered all around and asked:

“Does anybody else want a sip?”

No one responded.

“Oh right, you can’t answer, so…

one sip per person?”

After saying that, she patted the backpack beside her, “Don’t worry, I’ve picked a lot, enough for everyone!”
