Chapter 373: Chapter 331: Breaking Your Teeth _4

Master Basil stared and added one more sentence: "It doesn’t seem to be due to a particular rebel."

"Hahaha!"

...

This meal had been going on from noon until almost evening. The sun was setting in the west, and the temperature in Extinct Village was beginning to drop. The slanting rays of the sun passed through the tall tree canopy, seeming to blend warmth in the dim yellow light, but it felt cold upon touching the skin.

Master Basil and Uncle Yao were both drunk. Uncle Yao lay sprawled on the table like a dead pig after having too much alcohol, while Master Basil would occasionally turn over, humming a few words in his sleep, not knowing what he was saying, before falling back into a deep slumber.

Owen Bertram took out a bottle of Spiritual Pills and fed them to the two men.

He had repeatedly refined his formula many times, personally concocting it to neutralize the Cold Poison in the village. Since the pill needed strong alcohol as a medicinal guide, he took advantage of the opportunity to intoxicate the two elders and administer the medicine.

Since Owen couldn’t be certain whether the Spiritual Pills could help prolong the lives of the villagers, he didn’t want the two elders to get their hopes up, only to be disappointed in the end.

Berry silently watched from the side. After Owen fed Uncle Yao and Master Basil the pills, he handed the remaining pills to Berry: "Take one pill every three days. You too, there are enough pills here to last you a month."

Berry hesitated before asking, "Will it work?"

Owen didn’t lie to him and shook his head gently: "I don’t know."

Berry pouted, "Why can’t you just comfort me?" Owen only sighed in response.

Berry grabbed his spear from the side, stroking it in his hand and suddenly said, "What’s the point of practicing all these? We’re all going to die eventually."

Owen left the village in despair, avoiding the main road, and instead, traveled through the forest. He stopped behind the village, gazing at the massive Burning Hillock in the distance.

Where is the source of the evil energy in the village?!

After standing there for a while, Owen turned to leave. Magpie was waiting for him not far away, and they descended into a field shortly after he mounted.

On the Gourd Vine, there were four gourds left.

Ivan was hanging from Master Basil’s waist, and Brother was living comfortably inside Ivan.

Boss and Victor were in Master’s sleeves, always fighting for a more forward position, often leaving them bruised and bloodied. Victor had always been ahead, but ever since Boss had absorbed the Spiritual Treasure Embryo, he felt even more qualified to take the foremost position so that Master could touch him as soon as he reached in.

There was also a bug that often crawled between the two gourds. The bug wanted to be a borer, just like the one that ate the Tree Demon, and eat the two gourds, but it didn’t dare... because they seemed too frightening.

This feeling was like an old gourmet who’d heard that dragon liver and phoenix gallbladder were marvelously delicious but could only secretly drool at the thought because he’d never dare to slaughter a dragon or a phoenix that lived right in his house.

"Master..."

The remaining four gourds sobbed and trembled, causing the Gourd Vine to falter under their weight.

They thought Master had abandoned them. If that was the case, Master was really lacking vision. How could those three, Boss and the others, compare to me and my abilities!

But without Master’s nourishment these days, everyone’s growth had slowed to an infuriating crawl, almost coming to a standstill!

Owen unzipped his pants and released the spirit water, suddenly feeling as though he was burdened with providing for a family even though he wasn’t yet married.

"Master will not abandon you. I have just been too busy with my official duties lately, so I haven’t been able to visit as often."

After saying this, Owen touched his chin and felt that something was off about his words... they sounded just like something a man ready to abandon his family would say to his mistress.

Jerry Gourd suddenly made a bold move, causing the gourd shell to break open and fall into Master’s hand.

Owen chuckled, "Another one has matured."

Jerry Gourd’s divine power was "Unparalleled Hardness," which was precisely the defensive magic treasure Owen lacked recently!

"Great!" Owen was satisfied and put Jerry Gourd into his sleeve.

However, Jerry was domineering. As soon as he entered, he was like a hardheaded doll, bumping Jerry Gourd into both Boss and Victor, sending them to the back of the sleeve!

Both Boss and Victor Gourd were furious but couldn’t fight back against Jerry, sulking in resentment: just wait until Master realizes you’re useless, and he’ll naturally throw you to the back.

Jerry Gourd threatened the bug: get lost, or I’ll break your teeth!

The bug shivered and shrank back a bit.

Owen was satisfied, waved Magpie to go play and, with his hands on his back, strolled back to the Outpost.
