"Hurry up and begin. How do you want to compete?" Yolanda asked.
She wasn't worried that Miguel would sabotage the competition at all. When it came to poisoning, only Val, her fourth master, was the expert. She had never even heard of Miguel's name before she was reborn.
"We'll both create a poison each, exchange it, and create its antidote. The time limit will be an hour. How's that?"
Miguel thought about it and said, "However, it's not safe to let people who are present ingest the poison, and no one would be willing to anyway. Let us both ingest the other's poison and then create an antidote for that. How's that?"
"Ingest the poison?"
Miguel's words stunned all the patients who heard them. This was no longer just a bet that involved clinics and 200 million dollars; lives were involved now.
Such dangerous acts were not compliant with the rules as well.
However, they didn't say anything to stop them. Since this was a matter between two clinics, it had nothing to do with them.
The crowd merely stayed intending to watch how things went. They merely wanted to know how the two of them would create antidotes for each other's poison.
Some people who liked to gossip had already whipped their phones out to film it all. They thought if someone really died later, they would upload the video online immediately and it would be news that was sure to shake the entire Havaria.
Some people also thought that Yolanda was too young and that she wouldn't step up to the challenge.
She wouldn't joke about her life if she had some form of common sense.
Also, Yolanda was so young. Even if she knew some medical skills, it would be impossible for her to be as experienced as Miguel was.
"You don't have to worry about it being dangerous. We can set the rule now to only create slow-acting poison. It cannot be a poison that endangers one's life immediately after ingesting.
"If one party isn't able to create a successful antidote within ten minutes, it will be considered defeat, and the other party has to create the antidote immediately."
Miguel already had a plan formed in his heart. If Yolanda agreed to this, he would be able to poison her somehow.
