"President Peng! Let's not ruin the harmony."
"Thud!" The spear was planted directly in the spot where the castle had just been standing. Luckily, the castle dodged quickly, otherwise it would have lost a leg.
"You think I don't know what's in here?!"
The moment the castle opened its mouth, a packet of powder was smeared all over its face.
This was too sudden, and with the force field I used, "poof!" the bag exploded in his face, and the castle was instantly turned into a dough figurine.
I waved to the gatekeeper, and all the water in the cup landed on my hand, condensing into a water ball.
"Don't move!"
The castle certainly knew that the powder on his face was what he had hidden in the spear, and he also knew what the consequences would be if it came into contact with water.
He had just wiped his face when he saw the water balloon in my hand and immediately raised his hands.
"Zheng Yang! Calm down. Let me deal with the powder first, and we can talk this out."
"Don't move! I think I can hear the truth if I stay like this."
"Alright! Go ahead and tell me!"
He also knew that the longer he delayed, the more likely he would be poisoned, since saliva and tears are both water.
"What exactly are you looking for when you brought us to these ruins?"
Just as the castle was about to speak, I added, "Think carefully before you speak. The reason I asked this question is because I know a lot."
The castle indeed hesitated.
"Is it for the treasure?"
The castle could only nod in the end.
"Then why would you use this drug to harm me?"
"I...I was just jealous of your hacking skills, so I wanted to cripple your hands."
"Ah!" A scream suddenly rang out, and Peng Jun relaxed, turning around at the same time as the knight.
The knight's sword had somehow ended up in my hands and was already piercing the right side of the castle.
"You want to cripple both my hands? It's not too much for me to cripple only one of yours, is it?"
"Snap!" I drew my sword, and the castle winced in pain.
Castle clutched his hand, his teeth chattering from the pain: "Not at all!"
If I go too far, I'll have to restrain him. In that case, it won't just be his hands that will be ruined, but his brain too.
"May I leave now?"
"Remember this! I'm not someone to be trifled with. If you want to mess with me next time, think twice before you decide whether you're even qualified."
After I finished speaking, I looked at the knight, who was so frightened that he took a step back.
What do you want to do?
"Let me tell you, it was my master who saved you, otherwise, with your broken sword..."
"Crack!" I just snapped it in two with my hand, and it looked so easy.
The knight was now even more frightened; his face had turned pale.
"From now on, make sure you understand the whole story before you come out and act all high and mighty, you idiot!"
