NovelEnglishChapter 1984
As soon as the cloth covering the cage was removed, the two mice reacted with obvious alarm, running in circles
within the confines of the enclosure. However, their mobility was restricted, but where else could they flee?
"Dr. Larson, I'll take the lead." Zayn purposely emphasized the word "Dr. Larson," which was laced with sarcasm.
Matthew Larson, you should hold your horses! This is merely the beginning of what's to come! He mused, and a
penetrating chill lurked beneath his warm smile.
Seeing Matthew nodding in agreement, Zayn drew a long silver needle. Then, under the scrutiny of the other
three people, he dipped the end of the needle with the elixir made from the heart-stopper pampas. Since he
possessed both martial arts and medical skills, he could strike with lightning speed.
Next, he waited until the mouse was near the cage's edge before launching his attack with the silver needle. Due
the excruciating pain, the mouse tried to flee, but as soon as it lifted its forelegs, its entire body froze. Following
that, a dark purple shade began to spread throughout the mouse's body at a rate visible to the naked eye. A
moment later, the life of the weak and defenseless white mouse was over as it fell stiffly without a fight.
"Wonderful!" Baltazar exclaimed as the elixir's effect exceeded his expectations. Ah! My beloved disciple has
caught up to my level of expertise in drug-making. It seems that formulating my own poison would have a

"Your turn, Dr. Larson!"
Meanwhile, Salazar watched the event from the other side of the room and tried to conceal his shock. If this
poison is administered to humans, not even a martial arts master could contain its effects for at least thirty
minutes. Moreover, they will die instantly without putting up a fight if the antidote isn't found in time. While
considering that, his confidence took an immediate nosedive when he caught a glimpse of "the perfect tonic"
that Matthew was holding. He may lose this competition because the second round will require him to develop
an antidote for the poison demonstrated in the first round! Well... Suddenly, Matthew patted his shoulder and
flashed him a grin. "Relax!"
Afterward, he opened the elixir bottle and dipped his finger into it before placing his finger inside the cage. Then,
the last surviving mouse perked its ears, took a whiff of the air, and darted toward his finger in the cage to lick it.
It cautiously retreated after licking the elixir, but before it could take more than a few steps, its entire body
began to tremble, making it difficult to maintain balance. Soon, the mouse gasped for air, then collapsed and
died.
The results showed that Zayn had decisively defeated Matthew regarding the drug potency and how quickly the
elixir took effect. However, when he saw that, Salazar could not help but discreetly shake his head. Matthew has
lost!
However, as the competition's judge, Baltazar stepped forward to examine the mice. So, when he opened the
mouse cage, he confirmed that the two mice were dead.
At that moment, Zayn could not contain his laughter and said, "Sorry, Dr. Larson." It looks like | have won this
round!
"What's the rush? Let's give the poison more tto spread." Matthew's statement caught the others off guard,
and they wondered what he meant.
Wasn't it obvious who won the first match? Was he trying to have the last laugh, or was he unable to accept
defeat?
Nonetheless, Matthew ignored the stares of the others as he moved forward to remove the cloth from the mouse
cage, and the two mice inside the enclosure appeared to have a painful death under the bright light. Meanwhile,
Salazar was staring into the mouse cage with curiosity when he noticed the mouse Matthew had given the elixir
and began twitching its limb.
The unusual phenomenon of the situation drew Zayn and Baltazar's attention. Then, they fixed their gaze on the
mouse, and it twitched one of its limbs. Soon, after taking a few deep breaths, it rolled over and started
exploring its surroundings.

the dead back to life?"
