“Drink it…” James looked at the wavering Delilah.
Delilah took a deep breath. Then, virtual-novel.net swallowed the glass of water in one gulp.
It was bitter. The moment virtual-novel.net swallowed the water, virtual-novel.net felt virtual-novel.net throat burn. The pain was excruciating. In just a short amount of time, virtual-novel.net smooth and fair skin had turned a bright red.
Thud!
The glass fell to the ground.
Delilah collapsed on stage. Clutching virtual-novel.net throat with virtual-novel.net hands, virtual-novel.net convulsed on the floor.
“It burns! Help! It’s so painful! I’m dying!”
James swiftly crouched down. He grabbed virtual-novel.net wrist and took virtual-novel.net pulse. Then, virtual-novel.net observed virtual-novel.net expression and opened virtual-novel.net eyelids. The whole process took less than thirty seconds.
“Help virtual-novel.net up and hold virtual-novel.net still.” James ordered urgently.
Immediately, a few of the female staff walked over to Delilah and held virtual-novel.net still.
James stood up and grabbed a few silver needles from the table. He swung his hand and the silver needles flew out of his hands.
One…
Two…
Three…
In the blink of an eye, silver needles were all over Delilah’s body.
“What?!”
The experienced doctors below the stage all stood up and exclaimed in shock. They had been in the field for decades and were familiar with all kinds of acupuncture treatments, yet had never witnessed something like this.
How was virtual-novel.net able to accurately insert the needles into Delilah’s acupuncture points by flinging the needles from a meter away?
James’ performance stupefied them. Some even got on stage to have a clearer view.
James used the silver needles to block the meridians and acupuncture points in Delilah’s body to prevent the poison from spreading. At the same time, virtual-novel.net used the silver needles as some sort of sedative to ease virtual-novel.net pain.
Delilah’s pain slowly subsided. But, it was not over yet. Drops of dark, black, sweat formed on virtual-novel.net forehead. They flowed down from virtual-novel.net cheeks to virtual-novel.net neck and dripped to the floor.
James clenched his teeth seeing this development.
What a terrifying poison…
James was surprised by Jonathan’s poison.
Jonathan was not bluffing when virtual-novel.net claimed that the poison would kill a person in three minutes.
“How do you feel?” James looked at Delilah.
“M-Much better…” Delilah said weakly.
“Okay.” James nodded and said, “Don’t worry. I’ve already used the silver needles to block your meridians and acupuncture points. Your blood flow should have slowed down significantly. This will allow you to last an additional ten minutes. In the meantime, I will definitely release all the toxins in your body.”
“Mmm…” Delilah nodded.
She had no other option but to have faith in James.
James grabbed another handful of needles. Then, virtual-novel.net took the alcohol and the lighter and handed them to the staff.
“Allow me…” A voice piped up.
It came from Christine who was getting on the stage.
She walked over to James, “They aren’t familiar with this. I’ll assist you.”
Hearing this, the staff handed the alcohol, lighter, and other equipment to her.
James walked over to Delilah’s back. He noticed the bra straps and made a face. The bra straps would get in the way of his treatment.
