Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew) novel Chapter 1895

"Why do you say that?" Gregory was confused. "Is it poisonous if we eat it now?"

Lord Voodoo shook his head. "It has nothing to do with poison! When we eat the fruit, the energy contained inside it will clash with our energy. Therefore, after eating the fruit, there will be a period when we'll lose all of our power and won't be able to fight at all. Don't forget that we're still in Eastcliff territory. It's already dangerous enough for us to even be here. Things would only become even more perilous for us if we became powerless too."

Gregory and Macon both nodded in realization.

"You're right," Gregory said. "We should leave this place at once and find a safe place to hide before we eat this fruit."

Macon tightened his grip around the bottle in his hand as he commented darkly, "I hope Larson stays alive a little longer. I want to kill him myself!"

The sun was slowly beginning to rise.

The three men didn't dare to stick around any longer. They began journeying north under the cover of the forest.

Matthew was having breakfast in the dining room when Melvin came rushing in through the door.

"Something terrible has happened, Matty!" Melvin announced gravely. His expression was grim as well.

Matthew was startled. He had never seen Melvin this anxious before. What happened?

"What is it?" Matthew asked.
