"Sobriety Potion" has a mild effect on ordinary people, and its sequelae are similar to those of a hangover, with a slight headache and lack of energy.
But Old Man Tust's physical condition does not allow for too much stimulation, so this medicine can only be used for emergencies.
But it is definitely not the amount of two pills taken in a short period of time. The severe sequelae after overdose can make a healthy extraordinary person suffer from headaches for several nights.
The old man suddenly fainted. In fact, half of his feet were already in the coffin.
It was good luck to have Ren, a doctor who knew how to perform micro-manipulation of "gang line".
The blood vessels in Tust's body are now very clogged, and strenuous exercise can cause the blood clots to break off, which may pose a fatal risk at any time. The medical community in this world has not yet reached the level of equipment that can unblock blood vessels at any time...
Except for a few extraordinary abilities like "Gangxian".
In other words, if Renn were not present, even if a senior doctor was here, the old man would most likely not survive.
... ...
Finally, a quarter of an hour after first aid.
Renn breathed a sigh of relief.
The old man's heart rate stabilized, and he was able to regain half his life.
Karl's little face looked nervously for a long time, watching Renn stop the treatment, and then he dared to ask in a low voice: "Brother Renn, how is my grandfather?"
Ren's expression was slightly solemn and he said: "The side effects of the 'awakening potion' and the coma caused by overexertion are temporarily out of danger. But... it is estimated that it will take a long time to rest before he can return to his previous appearance."
This is an understatement.
Tust's current physical condition, even without the side effects of the medicine, would become worse day by day.
"Huh..."
As Karl listened, the breath hanging in his throat finally came out, and he said to himself: "It's good that Grandpa is fine."
Turning around, he looked at Renn: "Thank you, Brother Renn."
Ren shook his head, "Grandpa Tust took the potion just to lead me out of the encirclement. To say the least, I should say thank you."
After a pause, he did not continue to dwell on this topic and said, "Let's get Grandpa Tust out of this machine first. He should lie down and rest."
Karl nodded: "Oh."
He seemed to be very familiar with the job of taking care of his grandfather. He skillfully unlocked a few metal locks, removed the octopus mechanical arm from the old man's back, and left it in the control room of the combat mecha.
Then, he carefully hugged the skinny little old man and got off the armor.
Light and airy, like a puppet.
... ...
Without the danger of the "beast tide" attacking the city, there is naturally no need to break out.
The hunters who rushed out also returned to the city one after another.
"Did we survive?"
"Seems to be... "
"Hahaha... I survived! I got rich!"
In the messy ground base, the hunters were at a loss for a moment, and then their faces showed the ecstasy of surviving the disaster!
There were jubilant celebrations and hysterical vents everywhere.
Everyone felt that this victory was inexplicable.
But, he survived after all.
The hunters also began to clean up the battlefield.
... ...
After the heavy rain, the fog dispersed, and we had a rare day of clear weather with extremely high visibility.
There are blue clouds in the sky, the dawn light pours on the earth, and it is dawn before you know it.
In this battle, there were 60,000 to 70,000 people in the "Plague Base", and it was estimated that only less than 10,000 people survived.
Half of the dignitaries in the Mechanical City survived, and 90% of the hunters died. This is the difference between having the protection of Mechanical City and not having Mechanical City.
Ren and Karl did not go to clean up the battlefield full of treasures. They only collected the corpses of a few high-level monsters that the old man had killed and left them in the tent.
Carl made a pot of hot soup.
Tust regained consciousness after being fed a little hot soup.
The old man was surprised to see that he was still alive, but then the free and easy smile of "One more day to live, one more day to gain" appeared on his face.
It was a bit cool in the camp after the heavy rain, so Renn took a sip of hot soup to warm himself up.
Karl also served a bowl to Bazel who was sitting in the tent, and said timidly: "Mr. Bazel, you can also drink some hot soup..."
The "Top Ten Legendary Demon Hunters" are like the top stars in their previous lives. They are the legendary stars that almost every teenager in the world dreams of getting in touch with.
Ever since he heard about the assassination in Glory City, this little mechanic had long wanted to meet this big shot who was only known in legends.
Now that he knew that this strong man who looked a bit ugly but not so fierce was the legend, Karl was naturally a little cautious.
"Thanks."
Bazel took the soup bowl and gave a rare thank you.
Renn was slightly surprised, but he knew that it would be difficult for a weak person to stand in the eyes of this legend. This is a thank you and recognition.
Gulu gulu~
Bazel drank the soup very rudely. He probably poured it into his stomach without even tasting it.
Karl: "Would you like me to fill a bowl for you?"
Bazel handed over the big bowl and smiled slightly: "Thank you, it tastes good."
After smiling, his brows wrinkled again.
Renn had never seen him look like this, even when the beast tide came before. After thinking about it, he took the initiative to ask: "Senior Bazel, do you think there is something wrong? I see you look a little worried."
Bazel thought about it and said: "Kid Ren, I think we should take a break and leave this base. This time the beast tide retreated too strangely... I don't feel good."
It stands to reason that the beast tide has receded, and it is unlikely that it will come again in a short time.
Even Bazel himself found this sense of crisis somewhat inexplicable.
After hearing this, Ren frowned and thought for a moment, not daring to be careless: "Okay! Let's pack up and leave the base immediately."
He remembered that this big boss once said that werewolves have the talent of crisis perception like a "prophet". The stronger the strength, the more accurate the perception.
This ability allows him to have premonitions and make correct judgments at certain "extremely dangerous" moments. This ability is also the reason why he has been able to escape the pursuit of vampires many times and is still alive today.
What makes Bazel feel this way may not be the crisis within the base, but some kind of crisis more deadly than the beast tide.
... ...
Once they said they wanted to leave the plague base immediately, Tust and Karl didn't say anything.
Renn helped Carl quickly pack the necessary things and load them on the "Dachshund" steam locomotive.
The hunters in the camp were all cleaning the battlefield. Although they all knew that there was a very powerful mechanic here, no one came to disturb him.
Unexpectedly, just when they were about to get in the car and leave, a group of uninvited guests visited the tent.
Taking a closer look, it turned out to be Phoebe, the vice-president of the "Sunflower Merchants Association" and the housekeeper and his entourage who had been here yesterday.
"Sorry to bother you."
Phoebe's tone was unexpectedly polite, with a familiar warmth.
Renn had no intention of paying attention to this group of people and said with a cold face: "Madam, I already told you that I won't sell the gloves. Please come back."
"No... I'm not here for the gloves."
Phoebe showed a gentle professional smile. She looked at the packed luggage, and a flash of joy flashed in her eyes.
Fortunately, I didn't delay and came as soon as possible, otherwise I would have missed this great opportunity.
She didn't mean to look at Ren at all. Instead, her eyes fell on Mr. Tust who was lying on the chair. She said in a gentle tone: "I just want to visit an elder who is an old acquaintance of my mother. .”
When Ren heard this, he immediately realized that this woman was here for Tust's mechanical skills!
The smile on his face did not hide his sarcasm.
Haha, you looked indifferent yesterday, and now as soon as the war is over, you are now trying to make friends
In the battle last night, everyone saw the terrifying combat power of the "Big Muscular Deer God Armor". This top-notch mechanical technology is an immeasurable asset for any force.
Not just mechas, but people and technology!
The higher the upper class people are, the more they realize the value of top mechanics like Tust.
Ren didn't hide his sarcasm and sneered: "Sorry, we are all civilians here and don't have any old acquaintances with you. Madam, you probably went to the wrong door."
After a pause, he unceremoniously gave the order to expel the guests and said: "Everyone is blocking us, please give way."
Normally, if this proud noble lady was scolded like this by a commoner, no matter how well-mannered she was, her face would change.
But at this moment, Phoebe not only didn't have any anger at all, but the smile on her face became more... enchanting
... ...
Professional businessmen don't care about this so-called face, and Phoebe cleverly avoided the awkwardness of the topic.
She simply ignored Ren and walked to the chair where Tust was lying.
Like a junior visiting a seriously ill relative, her eyes were full of concern: "Are you...Uncle Tuste Fuentes? Oh, forgive my niece for not thinking of the 'Elma Garda' you mentioned yesterday. Ms. Sia's name... later my housekeeper reminded me that she was the name my mother had before she got married and changed her name."
The information on Blackwater Tower is very detailed.
She didn't expect that the person involved in the "scandal" was not dead yet!
What's even more unexpected is that he actually masters mechanical technology that is more advanced than that of the Omar Royal Academy of Sciences!
Phoebe can take charge of a large chamber of commerce, her methods are naturally strong, and she can also grasp the subtle emotions between men and women. How could she not see the "first love" emotion in the old man's eyes when they met yesterday
But the old mother was too far away from the imperial capital of Oma, so she had to go into battle in person.
In the eyes of professional businessmen, color has always been just a bargaining chip.
The only thing is whether it is worth exchanging, but there is no such thing as "taking advantage". Phoebe is very confident in her charm, which she relies on repeatedly in Omar's upper class society.
What's more... It seems that the old man's physical condition is at best capable of surviving hand addiction.
At this moment, she, who was already an actress, squatted beside the chair. From this angle, she saw a blur of white flowers.
She held Tust's cold and dry palm affectionately and placed it very skillfully on her chest, holding it just right. It's not explicit, but if you move a little, you can feel the ultimate touch. This is a subtle temptation that is difficult for normal men to control...
"You can call me little Phoebe, Uncle Tuster. Many people once said that my mother and I looked exactly the same when we were young..."
Phoebe was so caught up in the show that she didn't give anyone a chance to chase her away, and started her performance directly, "Over the years, my mother has always thought that life in the imperial capital is too boring, and I often see her looking depressed. Oh! If my mother knew that there was an old friend in the distant 'City of Glory', she would also be very happy..."
Renn felt terrible in his heart.
This exaggerated emotional release may seem embarrassing to others, but in the eyes of the person involved, it may not be that simple.
But Ren suddenly understood what this woman was planning to do.
She was planning to seduce the old man!
Not only did this woman's attitude become more pleasant, but she also dressed up carefully. A low-cut retro palace dress, and even retro makeup from thirty years ago? It was obvious that she wanted Tust to find her mother's youthful self in her!
Although he guessed that this woman had bad intentions, after all, it was the old man's private matter and he was still an elder. It was hard for Ren to say anything and just watched her performance quietly.
Sure enough, when Tust saw Phoebe dressed like this, he seemed to see the old friend from thirty years ago.
However, the complicated emotions disappeared in a flash, and he shook his head: "I'm sorry, madam, you recognized the wrong person."
After a pause, he said to Renn: "Boy Renn, let's go."
Hearing this, Phoebe's expression changed slightly, but she had no intention of giving up.
Turning her face, her eyes were already filled with tears, and she said: "Oh, Uncle Tust, are you blaming your niece for being rude? You don't seem to be in good health. The environment here is simply terrible. If you don't mind , I want to invite you to the Mechanical City, and I will let the best doctor take a look at you... That way, my mother will not blame me for my rudeness if she finds out in the future... "
Don't hit the smiling person with your hand, this trick will work every time.
no matter where.
But she didn't know that Ren and the others were in a hurry to leave.
Renn didn't give her a chance to continue her performance: "Madam, they say you have recognized the wrong person. Please leave. Be careful that the motorcycle will scratch your expensive clothes..."
After saying that, he ignored it and carried the old man onto the steam locomotive with Karl.
... ...
After being blocked one after another, Phoebe looked at Ren, a cold light flashed in her eyes. She knew that playing the emotional card wouldn't work, so she stood up and glanced at her housekeeper. The butler immediately understood and made a small move that made people unaware.
Not long after, there was an urgent and frustrated shout from the door.
"Mother, that is a murderer, we cannot let them go!"
