Chapter 177 Despicable Me 10

The only spot spared from the light at the bottom of the pool was the square right beneath the iron cage that held the puppet. Since the cage was dangled close to the ceiling, the shadow that it cast was huge, but at the bottom of the pool, the shadow was only medium size.

Feng Bujue dived after checking the desired location. The water temperature that was comparatively lower made his spine recoil instinctively, and then came the discomfort of the petrol rushing into his ears. He used his hands to shield his nose and mouth, and that was how he managed to prevent his respiratory system from being damaged. However, even if he kept his eyes screwed shut, there was still a burning sensation coming from the eyes.

There were two things that he needed to do—find the potion, and once the potion was found, abandon his will to survive and try to drown himself as soon as possible.

If he failed the first objective, he would never obtain this potion again. Therefore, for this one minute that he could hold in his breath, he could not afford to make a mistake.

Soon, Feng Bujue reached the bottom of the pool. He had jumped down in a standing position, but while he was sinking, his center of gravity had turned his head downward, so he reached the bottom while kneeling. Thankfully, he had extended one of his arms outward, or else he would have kissed the ground with his face.

"Main quest progress update. Find the chemical potions (2/4)"

When his hand touched the bottom, Feng Bujue heard the system announcement, and the potion magically appeared in his grasp. This time, he obtained Unknown Chemical Potion (D).

What’s this? Suddenly I got so lucky? Feng Bujue wondered. With my luck, I managed to curl my palm around the item of interest the moment I reached the bottom of the pool?

At the same time, inside the iron cage, Billy’s head was leaning downward, and a flash crossed its eyes.

But Feng Bujue, as mentioned multiple times, was a very patient man. This level of discomfort was nothing for him. He jumped down, walked out the door, holding the puppet with one hand, and raced down the corridor.

This game wasted less time than he had anticipated. Be it finding the potion or capturing Billy, both were equally surprisingly easy. But the length of this fourth corridor was rather long, and he ran for ten minutes before he reached the end.

But this perfectly coincided with the Ravid from eightieth minute. It took Feng Bujue eighteen minutes to reach the end of the fourth corridor.

"Hey! I got you the inmate already, give me the thing!" Feng Bujue ran out of the corridor and stalked toward Ravid while yelling.

Ravid, who was seated behind the large table, lifted its eyes to look at him and then at Billy.

"Oh! Traveler from another world, you’ve captured Billy! Haha!" Ravid laughed. "Wonderful!"

"Stop wasting my time. I’ll give you the puppet, and you’ll give me the thing." Feng Bujue dropped Billy on the table.

"Even though I have no idea why you would hand me the inmate that I need..." Ravid shrugged and touched its whiskers. It took out a potion from its drawer, handed it to Feng Bujue, and said, "Since you’ve captured him, just as you said, here is..."

"How did you know I’m looking for the chemical potion?" When Feng Bujue asked this question, he snatched the potion, slid it into his inventory, and pulled out the pistol at the same time.

"Er... it was you who told me..." Ravid’s expression shifted, and it stammered an answer.

"Told you what? I didn’t mention a potion at all. What I said was a ’thing’..." A cold smirk appeared on Feng Bujue’s lips, and he fired a bullet right at Ravid’s rabbit face.
