Sun and Thorn readily agreed to talk to those plants, and after a while, they conveyed the reply of those plants.

[Those two plants don’t want to listen at all!] Sun said.

[They said that we are all enemies and they will get rid of us!] Thorn added.

"So, they still wanted to attack us?"

[Yes, they said humans are all despicable and that they have to get rid of them!] Thorn said.

[They even said that since we are also together with humans, then we are also enemies!] Sun said with anger.

"Ok, then we will just get rid of them if they really don’t listen. But try talking to them again and let them retreat."

The plants weren’t that near yet, and they still had a lot of snakes around them, so Luciel told them to talk to those plants again. Sun and Thorn talked to those plants again, and those plants obviously became more frantic in their movements and seemed to want to rush to where they were immediately.

"They don’t listen?"

[It’s no use; it seems that they really hate all humans. They are old enough so they don’t listen to us at all. They just said that they’ll kill you all,] Thorn said.

[Yes, they really hate humans. They kept saying that they’re going to get rid of all of you no matter what and kept saying that all humans had to die,] Sun added.

"Did you ask why they hate humans very much?"

[We asked, and they didn’t say anything about it. They just said that they’ll get rid of all of you just like what they did to the humans that they met before,] Thorn said.

"Tsk. Then we will just get rid of them if they really don’t listen."

Those two plants were obviously not young plants like Sun and Thorn, as was obvious from their main bodies and from what Sun and Thorn had said.

They had even killed humans before, so if they really hate humans very much, then it’s better to just get rid of them before they could cause trouble later.

Those plants were already old enough so they certainly wouldn’t be willing to be in a contract with him, and their thoughts would also be very hard to change if they had hated humans for a long time already.

[Oh, they just said that they had already started attacking you guys, so you can’t escape!] Thorn said immediately.

As soon as Luciel heard what Thorn said, he frowned and quickly said, "Nate, Derek, clear the air around us! And keep an air barrier around!"

Luciel had always been paying attention to the things around them but hadn’t noticed anything different at all, so he could only guess that it’s probably something that they couldn’t see or smell at all.

Nate and Derek also stopped attacking the mutant snakes and immediately did what he had ordered.

However, it seemed that they were still a bit late because he could already feel a bit numb, and looking around, it seemed that the others also had the same problem, as they were sluggish.

It seemed that they had already inhaled whatever the plants had released and it seemed that they had already been poisoned.

Luciel quickly took out a small cylindrical box from his pocket which contained an antidote that Jacob had gifted him, which could be effective in dealing with a lot of poisons.

The antidote was something that doesn’t have any serious side effects even if it was taken accidentally.

Jacob had been experimenting with it every time he had time and even went to the research center to get some of the things that he needed, while using the points of the team in exchange as well as some of his own, as it’s a study that’s also related to strengthening the team.

Everyone in Treyton’s team had some allotted points from the team that they could use if they were going to exchange for something to strengthen themselves, which would also be helpful for the whole team.

And among the members, Jacob, Aldo, Samuel, and Derek were the ones who were frequently using theirs so that they could exchange something from the research center, engineering center, and other places so that they could make or do something.

According to Jacob, the antidote that he gave him as a gift is very hard to make, as the materials weren’t enough and he had to remove the toxins; the ratio also needs to be very accurate because just a little difference would make the antidote into a very poisonous substance, as it was also combined with a lot of different poisons.

When Jacob gave it to him, he said that he only managed to make 5 vials, which took a lot of time and materials. And on his birthday, Jacob gave him one as a present together with other poisons and antidotes.

He doesn’t know what kind of poison they had inhaled as he didn’t see or smell anything at all, so he just drank the antidote as soon as possible to avoid further complications.

While drinking the antidote, he also heard Treyton shouting for Jacob to quickly check everyone as well as make an antidote. Afterwards, Treyton also drank an antidote that he also always carried with him.

Nathan, who had been fighting the mutant animals, also stopped attacking totally and went to where Jacob was and began reporting what he was feeling while checking on his own condition.

They began to act quickly as the people around them had further slowed down their movements.

Luciel, who had drunk an antidote, wasn’t sure if the antidote had worked because he was still feeling numb and couldn’t move properly; but even though he already couldn’t move properly, he still began moving forward to the walls and began attacking the mutant snakes that were still around them.

He couldn’t afford to just stand at the back already as they weren’t sure about the poison that they had inhaled, and it would certainly be difficult to continue fighting if all of them couldn’t move later on.
