A Man Like None Other - Season 4 Episode 73

Explosion Pill

At the mansion of the Jantz family.

Zachariah stood respectfully in Venicus’s room with a beautiful wooden box in his hand.

At the moment, Venicus was sitting on the bed with his eyes closed while conjuring magic with his hands. Balls of green flames were floating around like wisps.

Zachariah was amazed by what he saw. Even as a Master of internal energy, that was the first time he saw such an astonishing technique.

Huff!

Suddenly, Venicus shouted, and the green flames melded together, followed by a deafening explosion.

Boom!

The jarring noise was so loud that all the glassware in the room rattled.

After the flames exploded and the smoke dissipated, a green-colored pill appeared in Venicus’s hand.

“This is an explosion pill. After consuming it, it can instantly double your strength. However, it only lasts for three hours. Once the time is up, you will return to your original state,” Venicus explained before he casually tossed the explosion pill to Zachariah.

“Thank you, Master Venicus. Here, this is a thousand-year-old ginseng. Please take it as an offering from me to you,” Zachariah placed the wooden box on the table and said.

“Good!” Venicus nodded and waved his hand, signaling Zachariah to leave the room.

After Zachariah went out of the room, Venicus’s face broke out in excitement. He jumped down from his bed and opened the wooden box. Then, he carefully put the thousand-year-old ginseng into his pocket.

In actuality, many mages were able to create an ordinary pill like the explosion pill. However, not many people from the martial arts world knew about this. Therefore, they would worship mages as a god. After all, they were oblivious due to the difference in their profession.

Venicus was overjoyed to have obtained a thousand-year-old ginseng in exchange for an ordinary explosion pill.

“Mr. Jantz, it took you a lot of effort to find the thousand-year-old ginseng, and you’re just giving it away?” Puzzled by his decision, Leonardo asked when he saw Zachariah walking out of Venicus’s room

“Hahaha! What would you know?” Zachariah exclaimed with the explosion pill in his hand. “This pill will instantly double my strength, and I’ll be undefeatable in the arena tomorrow! Do you think I’m just fighting for the Whitaker family’s assets? No, I want the whole Warriors Alliance! I want to be the leader! With this explosion pill, everyone will have to obey me!”

“As expected of Mr. Jantz.”

Leonardo didn’t expect Zachariah’s end goal to be the Warriors Alliance.

The next morning, many people rushed to the arena venue on the outskirts of Summerbank. Among them were people from martial club families in the Warriors Alliance and many people from business families.

Anthony brought the Department of Justice and set up a perimeter around the area to prevent anything unexpected from happening.

He was well aware that the Department of Justice couldn’t interfere in the affairs of the Warriors Alliance. Even if something brutal happened, the Department of Justice could only watch. However, he was responsible for protecting the safety of the surrounding area.

Jared took Josephine and Tommy along and followed the people from the Phoenix Regiment to the venue.

Lizbeth, on the other hand, was on the move with the Department of Justice. She was an investigator, after all.

“Phoenix, don’t force yourself when you’re fighting against Zachariah later. Only kill when you can, and retreat if you can’t. The Jantz family’s days are numbered anyway,” Jared warned Phoenix in the car.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Chance. I have full confidence in this fight!”

Phoenix smiled.

Jared could tell that the woman had accumulated a substantial amount of strength over the years. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be this confident.
