Chapter 683
A cool wave spread through Scott’s body
It felt like a steady stream washing over him, smoothing
so long. The lingering damage from eating crystal cores the aching an pressure in his head eased by more than half
His body felt lighter, especially his mand it was clear and sha
been scrubbed away
Scott stood there, stunned by the feeling
He looked at Hayley, disbelief written all over his face
She actually had such an effective medicinet A dog that directly countered the side effects they had been suffering through.
If everyone in his base could take this
Even someone as controlled as Scott couldn’t hide the flicker in his eyes After a moment he asked Can you supply this in bulk?”
Hayley shook her head without hesitation. Nope. Not happening”
Scott paused, caught off guard.
She went on. “This drug is super rare. Just came out of our research lab We don’t even have 100 l the entire League. My own people haven’t even gotten any yet”
She let that hang for a second.
“But You and me, we’re practically family. If your base is struggling, find a way to supply you
Scott didn’t say anything right away. He just looked at her, the smile at the come

“Once Brookville and Crestford are cleared,” Hayley said, “Haylight League will officially welcome you We’ll be waiting.”
Scott’s eyes curved with a smile.
He wasn’t stupid. He knew exactly what she was doing. She was using him like a weapon
But the detox pill was too tempting.
They had been eating crystal cores raw for too long. The toxins had built up in their bodies. Every episode hit harder than the last, pushing them closer to the edge.
Sometimes, Scott even thought back to last year. If Hayley hadn’t taken their crystal cores back then, they might’ve already overdosed and died from it.
She had been right about cooking them, too. It did help reduce the damage.
Alas, it was too late. The damage was already there.
