"The Feathered Serpent is weak in direct combat, but its venom is extremely deadly. Adventurers will fall into a state of being unable to stop bleeding, unconsciousness, and hypothermia. Then their magic circuits will be damaged, their brains will be corroded by the venom, and they will eventually fall into a deep sleep."

Identifying the type of toxin is good news.

The bad news is that the venom of the Feathered Serpent is extremely potent.

With the materials Linda had, she couldn't concoct an antidote.

In a maximum of three hours, Tasia will become a cold corpse.

"If I hadn't chosen to continue forward, but instead returned to the public area via another route, Tasia would probably..."

Thinking of this, Linda felt a chill in her heart.

Given the current situation, there are actually some solutions.

If we can collect some dragon blood—dragon blood belongs to the fire element and has a strong suppressive effect on the venom of the Frost Poison Feathered Serpent—it won't be difficult to save Tasia if we combine it with antidote herbs.

However, collecting dragon blood is too difficult.

A drop or two of dragon's blood isn't very useful; at least a teacup is needed.

Linda's head is as big as a bucket.

He's just a level 26 support, where is he going to get so much dragon blood?

You can't exactly pray that Mori Ryu is female, and then happen to be on her period...

Even if such dragon blood existed, its quality could not be guaranteed.

"Is it possible to snag a bargain?"

Linda suddenly realized that there should be some dragon blood left in the places where Senlong and the Chaoyang-level adventure team fought.

As far as he knew, there were three Rising Sun-class adventure teams that had ventured deep into the Dragon Forest. They couldn't defeat the Forest Dragon, but they could certainly injure it.

Linda hugged Tasia, her eyes shining as she looked ahead.

Regardless of whether they have dragon blood or not, they can only move forward.

If all else fails, ask those Rising Sun-level adventure groups for some dragon blood.

I don't know the name of the Phoenix Tail Flower, or how useful it is at the Rising Sun level... By the way, the leader of the Holy Rock Adventurer Group is Eiko's father, so we can consider using that connection.

Afterwards, I'll owe Aiko and Shengyan a favor. Wait, Aiko seems to have a strained relationship with her family. Will mentioning Aiko's name backfire?

Linda's mind was a mess; she was completely exhausted from thinking.

"There's no point in thinking too much. Let's go to the Forest Dragon Cave first, and deal with the rest as we go."

He crawled forward.

At the same time, he held Tasia tightly, allowing his body heat to transfer to her.

Tasia, who usually sweats a lot and is always warm, is now as cold as ice.

As the team captain, Linda felt the pain both in her eyes and in her heart. She felt that her team members were like daughters she had personally raised, and she couldn't bear to let any of them go.

As Linda sensed Tasia's body growing colder, a burning desire ignited within her.

Half an hour later, we arrived at the end of the tunnel.

He stood up with Tasia on his back, carefully pushed aside the stone slab, and looked outside.

Thanks to the moonlight, the surrounding scenery was barely visible.

The enormous creature that had been guarding the entrance to the lair had vanished.

Many traces of the battle were left on the ground.

A huge crater, broken trees, rocks, blood...

Linda couldn't help but get excited: Could that blood be Senlong's?
