I collect fragments in Douluo Continent

Chapter 52 Battle of Poison

Inside the private room, the members of the Royal Fighting Team chatted happily.

Even with Lu Feng as an outsider, the atmosphere remained lively thanks to the efforts of Oslo and Yu Feng.

Joyful laughter kept coming from the room and could be heard clearly in the hallway.

However, one person seemed out of place.

Dugu Yan turned to look at Lu Feng from time to time. This boy, who only drank juice and never drank alcohol, had successfully caught her attention.

As the granddaughter of Poison Douluo, no one had ever dared to speak so arrogantly in front of her.

He claims to be the third best poison master in the world?

Hmph, that's quite a boast!

"Brother Tang, you must have encountered quite a few good things while gathering herbs in the forest, right? Is there anything unusual you could share with us?"

Dugu Yan spoke slowly and deliberately, her voice carrying an air of undeniable authority.

"Sigh." Yu Tianheng sighed silently from the side.

As Dugu Yan's suitor, he knew her temperament all too well. Once she made up her mind about something, nothing could sway her.

"Hehe, it's hardly a treasure. But there's plenty of scrap metal."

Lu Feng chuckled softly and calmly took out a small medicine bottle from his soul tool.

"Brothers Tang, what is this thing?"

Oslo reached out and took the small medicine bottle to his side, examining it carefully.

"Brother Tang, what does this label say?"

"This is called Pinyin, a simplified script I created myself," Lu Feng said calmly. "This is Datura; just smelling it can make someone sleep for a whole day."

Oslo was about to uncork the bottle when he heard Lu Feng's words and he quickly stopped himself.

"Phew~"

Oslo patted his chest, still shaken, and then handed the bottle back to Lu Feng. "You didn't say anything about something this important sooner. Luckily, I reacted quickly."

Lu Feng smiled gently, uncorked the bottle, and dripped a drop of datura into the wine.

The datura liquid is pure white, but the moment it is dropped into the wine, a strange green flash appears, only to disappear just as quickly.

A moment later, the glass of wine looked exactly the same as before, as if nothing had ever happened.

The moment the green appeared, Oslo's body involuntarily trembled, clearly startled.

"That's amazing!"

Oslo opened his eyes wide and stared intently at the white wine in his glass, trying to find something different.

However, the wine looked completely unchanged.

He leaned closer to smell it and found that apart from the smell of alcohol, there was indeed no other special smell.

"Brother Tang, are you selling this medicine? You can set the price however you like, I'll accept it!" Oslo said with a big smile.

His small eyes kept darting around, and no one knew what little scheme he was plotting.

"It's not expensive at all. If Brother Ao likes it, we'll go with the cost price of one hundred gold soul coins."

Upon hearing this, Oslo's face immediately lit up with a smile.

He carefully placed the medicine bottle into the soul tool, then deftly took out a money bag from the soul tool and tossed it to Lu Feng with a grin.

"Datura dissolves in water, is colorless and odorless, and can cause drowsiness if ingested by mistake," Dugu Yan said confidently, raising her head slightly and crossing her arms.

"Brother Tang, how come your datura produces green pigment? Isn't that easy for someone to detect?" Dugu Yan asked with a sneer.

Lu Feng replied with a smile, "Water is also colorless and odorless, and it won't change anything if you add it to wine. Before consuming it, who can tell whether you're using water or datura?"

"So, I added a little bit of color effects."

As Lu Feng spoke, his face was full of smugness.

"That way, laymen will think my medicine is amazing, and then I can take the opportunity to raise the price, hahaha."

Upon hearing this, Oslo's smile vanished instantly, replaced by a look of astonishment.

Am I not the outsider myself?

A fat sheep?

A great traitor?

"Hmph!" Dugu Yan let out a cold snort from her nose.

Then, she deftly took out a small bottle from her soul tool and placed a glass of untouched liquor in front of her.

"Tick-tock".

A drop of eerie green liquid dripped from the small bottle.

In an instant, the originally clear and transparent glass of baijiu turned into a chilling dark green, as if by magic.

At the same time, a strong, pungent fishy smell suddenly wafted into my nostrils.

The smell made people want to vomit and made them feel dizzy.

"This is snake venom that I, a nobody in the mainland who's not even considered a venom expert, concocted myself when I was bored. Brother Tang, do you dare to come and taste it?"

Dugu Yan's lips curled up slightly, a provocative smile on her face.

"If you can cure my Azure Phosphorus Serpent venom, then I will admit that you are more powerful than me. And your master will naturally be more powerful than my grandfather."

Dugu Yan's face was full of arrogance, and her tone revealed extreme confidence.

It's important to know that this snake venom was extracted from her martial soul, the Azure Phosphorous Serpent. The venom takes effect extremely quickly; if an ordinary soul master is even slightly exposed to just a tiny bit, their entire body will fester and turn into pus within a short time.

Even her grandfather praised this toxin, believing it to be about one-third as potent as the venom of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent King.

"Oh, I've long heard of the Azure Phosphorous Serpent's fame. It's an honor to see it today. It truly is extraordinary." Lu Feng said slowly, still with a smile on his face.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

At the same time, he felt a secret excitement rising within him.

Dugu Yan was far too proud.

The simplest yet most difficult way to truly subdue her is to thoroughly humiliate her in her area of ​​expertise: poison.

This caused her to "hold a grudge".

This created the possibility of him seducing her.

Pooh.

The possibility of him swindling her family's assets.

"However, this Jade Phosphorus Snake Venom is no ordinary substance!" Lu Feng stared at the dark green liquor, his expression becoming extremely serious.

In the original story, Tang San successfully countered Dugu Yan's third soul skill by using high-proof realgar wine.

At first glance, it seems that it was all Tang San's doing.

But in reality, that's not the case.

The greatest credit should actually go to Ma Hongjun.

Ma Hongjun's martial soul is extraordinary. The evil fire he possesses is much hotter than ordinary flames, and it is also extremely aggressive and highly dependent. Once it comes into contact with anything, it is extremely difficult to extinguish.

Using it to deal with snake venom is a piece of cake.

While realgar wine can somewhat counteract snake venom, its greatest effect is to amplify the harmful effects of pathogenic heat.

It was precisely the combination of the evil fire and realgar wine that enabled the Shrek team to successfully break through Dugu Yan's poison array.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh."

Lu Feng took out several small bottles from his soul tool. These bottles were colorful and vibrant, and just looking at them made people feel a little scared.

Each vial has a label that lists the name of the medicine.

However, this is not the script used in Douluo Continent; it is entirely replaced with "pinyin".

When Oslo saw the bottles, he immediately felt a chill run down his spine.

Oslo and Dugu Yan had always had a good relationship; their families were even neighbors. Because of this, he was often teased by Dugu Yan when he was a child.

Therefore, he now feels a chill run down his spine whenever he sees those poisonous creatures.

Upon seeing this, Yu Tianheng couldn't help but frown.

He had initially thought Lu Feng was merely a talented Soul Master. He never imagined Lu Feng's skill in alchemy would be so exceptional.

"If the opponent suddenly uses these poisons during the battle, I really don't have a sure chance of winning," Yu Tianheng thought to himself.

Yu Tianheng was unaware that he had subconsciously regarded "Tang Si" as a rival.

As the saying goes: laymen watch the spectacle, experts watch the details.

Dugu Yan wasn't intimidated by these small bottles; after all, she was an expert in poisons.

However, among the poisons that Lu Feng took out, there were several that Dugu Yan could tell were potent just by smelling them.

Dugu Yan couldn't help but believe Lu Feng's words a little more.

This handsome young man seems to be quite extraordinary.
