"This is bat potion. Drinking it can greatly enhance your hearing, but it's slightly poisonous. Drinking half a bottle at a time will be enough."
Martina pouted slightly and asked aggrievedly, "Is it poisonous?"
Reiner glanced at Martina beside him and said, "Don't worry, it's within the human body's acceptable range. If you don't drink it frequently, it won't kill you. Besides, you used to eat poisonous mushrooms as snacks when you were a kid. Are you still afraid of this potion now?"
"That's good." Martina pulled out the cork and took a sip.
Reiner followed her example and took a big gulp.
The effect of the medicine came on quickly. After a brief period of tinnitus, Reiner heard a strange female voice.
"Accept the reality, Helitos. I sympathize with those innocent children, but we can't save them. Don't be stupid. The dragon has awakened and may eat those children at any time."
The voice should be that of Helitos's female companion.
"What child?" Martina elbowed Reiner and asked in confusion.
"I don't know. I just heard them talking."
Nora pointed at the scattered clothing and said slowly, "It seems those cultists have captured quite a few women and children to offer to the earth dragon."
Martina opened her eyes wide: "What! Then let's save them quickly! Before it's too late."
Reiner stopped her: "Wait a minute."
He squatted down slightly and touched the ground with his hands: "If the situation becomes serious, I will take action to control the earth dragon."
"Can I?"
"Nonsense! Do you think I haven't improved myself at all in these ten days except for playing with you guys?"
Martina glanced at Nora: "Ah? Isn't it...?"
Reiner shook his head. "Obviously not."
When his wife didn't need help, he would practice magic alone and strengthen his control over the devil.
Now he only needs a little bit of magic power to easily kill the earth dragon in seconds.
At this moment, the voice of Anahita, Helitos's female companion, came: "It's over... Helitos, how about we go in together? You move quickly and use wind magic to drag them up and fly away. I'll help you attract the earth dragon's attention and buy time."
Martina also heard this. She frowned and said in a slightly unhappy tone: "My son will not hide behind a woman."
As soon as the horsewoman finished speaking, Helitos spoke up, "I'll go by myself. You and Sadie go out first. The cave might collapse soon. I won't let you take any risks. My mother told me to always protect the children. They are the future hope of Northland."
Martina's ears pricked up again. She puffed out her chest and said proudly, "Helitos, be brave! He has become a qualified warrior!"
Before Nora could complain, the woman named Sadie said, "What if you were buried underground? Even if you were powerful..."
"No, I can fly very fast."
Reiner thought the kid would ask them for help, but he seemed to be planning to handle it himself.
After thinking for a moment, Reiner injected magic power into the cave, and the ochre-colored rocks were quickly solidified.
"Honey, what are you doing?" Martina asked in confusion.
Reiner raised his eyebrows slightly: "Help Helitos, we've been caught in the rain, now hold an umbrella for him."
