Chapter 536 Strength is not the key
"Did you put drugs in the dumpling soup?"
Seeing these three people fainted, Wang Sheng immediately used his soul power. His martial spirit possessed his body, his hands turned into tiger claws, a word "王" appeared on his head, three long whiskers appeared on both sides of his cheeks, and his whole body became bigger.
However, the spirit ring cannot be manifested, but the spirit skills can be used.
"It really looks similar to the mutant."
Odin remained indifferent and still maintained that expressionless face, but the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, allowing people to see that she was smiling.
"Don't get excited, Wang Sheng. Miss Odin means no harm." Zhou Qing signaled Wang Sheng to put away his martial spirit, then turned to look at Odin and asked, "The so-called test started the moment I saw you, didn't it?"
“Very clever.”
Odin was not stingy with his praise. "To gain the qualification to enter the lower level, that is, my recognition, it is not enough to surpass me in strength, you also need to have brains."
"The three of them are obviously unqualified. They trusted a stranger like me so easily and ate my food without any hesitation... Two of them are spoiled young ladies and princesses, so it's understandable that they are a little naive; but Riko is already fifteen years old and grew up in Abyss Town, but she is still so naive. It seems that Aber took care of her too well... This situation can't continue."
"Perhaps it's better to stay here. Her mother won't have to worry about her dying while exploring downwards."
However, Tang San asked about the reason why the three of them fainted. After all, he had checked and there should be nothing harmful to the human body in the dumpling soup.
"What is harmful to the human body? What is harmless to the human body? Boy, your definition of poison is a bit too arbitrary."
Odin grinned, holding a glass of water, and said, "Like this boiled water, most people think it is non-toxic, but what do you think would happen if a person drank ten kilograms of water at once? What would happen if he soaked in water for a whole day?"
Tang San was slightly stunned.
He really hadn't thought about this issue.
"Also, if two non-toxic things are combined together, they may become toxic and harmful to the human body. For example, eating dairy products and green peppers together can cause vomiting and diarrhea. Another example: eating fish and persimmons together can also cause vomiting, diarrhea, and even dizziness."
Odin put down his glass and continued, "In the examples I gave above, any one of the ingredients is non-toxic if taken alone, but if they are combined or consumed in excess, they may be harmful to the human body."
"Thanks for the enlightenment."
Tang San accepted it humbly.
He actually knew the examples Odin gave, but he had never thought of linking them with poison.
Now that I think about it, I really shouldn’t have done that.
So-called poison, or medicine, is rarely used alone. It requires mixing multiple different drugs in proportion. If there is too much or too little of any one of them, the medicine may become poison, and the poison may become ineffective.
The ingredients of the current dumpling soup may not be toxic individually, but when combined together, they can have a certain drowsiness effect.
"You are welcome."
Odin looked at the three sleeping people and said, "My dumpling soup recipe, in addition to being able to fill their stomachs, can also help them sleep. It is very effective for people with insomnia. These three little guys may not have slept well recently, or they may have been too energetic, so the effect is so obvious."
Ning Rongrong really had trouble sleeping recently. After all, nearly a month ago, she witnessed a massacre outside the Yu Tiandou auction house. The bloody scene left the nine-year-old girl with some aftereffects.
What about Visa?
She had participated in the Soul Fight and studied the human body structure, so her situation was better than Ning Rongrong's. However, she was the one who bought the stone that produced the mutant, which led to the Tiandou side's tendency to hold Tianhun accountable... She felt guilty, which meant she suffered from insomnia and nightmares.
In order to relax, the two of them naturally followed their elders to watch the finals of the Continental Elite Tournament. However, they were children after all, and since it was their first time to come to the Abyss Ruins, they naturally wanted to come down and explore.
As for Riko - "Come out, you can take your little master back. If they really run to the third floor, the ascending curse is not something they can withstand."
Odin suddenly spoke toward the window.
"excuse me."
The guardians from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and the Heavenly Soul Kingdom, who were secretly protecting Ning Rongrong and Visa, filed in through the window, lifted Ning Rongrong and Visa up, and quickly left the tree house.
"These guys really have no manners at all."
Only after the group of people disappeared did Odin slowly shake his head, and then he told Zhou Qing and the others about the qualifications to enter the lower level.
"To go down, the criterion is not strength... Well, that's not true. At least the person going down needs to be a little stronger than a normal person. Otherwise, when going up, they may not be able to hold on to the rope because of the curse and fall to pieces."
"Of course, if you don't plan to come up again, that's another matter—"
"However, whether you can get up or not, as long as you don't want to commit suicide but want to survive, then having a smart brain that can discover and summarize the habits of the animals and plants at the bottom and judge the direction and environment is the best choice."
"As for strength... it's best to have it, but it's not a critical condition. After all, as long as there is water and soil, and there are living things in the soil, and the surrounding environment has air that people can breathe, then humans can survive even if they are weak."
The reason for saying this is that Zhou Qing, Tang San, Xiao Wu, Romantina, and Wang Sheng already meet the basic requirements, so there is no need to make things difficult for them.
but--
"Where's Riko?"
Looking at Riko who was sleeping soundly, Zhou Qing asked.
"She is still too immature. Later..."
"I'm not asleep!"
Suddenly, Riko straightened up and shouted to Odin.
In fact, she was pretending to be asleep just now. Before she fell down, she deliberately winked at Zhou Qing and others, but unfortunately they didn't seem to understand what she meant, and instead started chatting with Odin.
But now, seeing that Odin was about to send her back, Riko knew that if she continued pretending to sleep, she would really have to go back to Abyss Town!
"I told you, you're not qualified."
Odin said leisurely, "You were born on the seventh floor of the Abyss Ruins and were sent back to the surface by your mother in a special way. Your body is more resistant to drugs, but you don't have their vigilance, nor the ability to solve problems on your own when you encounter them."
"But I'm their guide, I have to lead them down!"
Li Ke didn't seem to be pretentious, her eyes were firm, "I have received their deposit, I can't give up halfway! Also, I must go down to find my mother!"
"Then I can give you a chance—"
Odin stood up, his tall body was extremely oppressive, and walked to Riko's side. Before she could react, he grabbed her head, lifted her up, and threw her towards the left door.
That's the living room.
