Chapter 2003
"But," Scott, Chad, and Jerry opened their mouths hesitantly when they heard Leon turning down the Detox paste offered by Fletcher.
Since they already convinced themselves that Leon obtained his status through connections, none of them believed that Leon’s Essential Detox Pills could counter the Poisonwielder's Reaper’s Breath.
The three of them desperately wanted to accept the Detox paste, but Leon turned it down as their leader, so they could not possibly argue with Leon. Hence, they all smiled bitterly and swallowed the words rolling on their tongues.
"Mister Wolf, if you and your team don't need the Detox paste, that's fine!' Fletcher said, before putting the Detox paste away.
"How insolent!"
"Fletcher offered him the Detox paste out of kindness and he turned it down!"
"Yeah, the damage of having an incompetent leader is worse than having an incompetent soldier!"
"He's already acting all smug now because he was appointed as leader. Who knows how arrogant he will become later on?"
The members of the western region Dragon Corps all had a dark looks on their faces as their doubt about Leon's capability deepened.
Leon himself mentioned that the Essential Detox Pills might not work, and like Fletcher, the others thought that the Detox paste would work much better; yet Leon refused the Detox paste Fletcher offered to him, and in their perspective, Leon could not have been more foolish.
This exhausted quite a big portion of the Dragon Corps' manpower and if the Poisonwielder was not eliminated anytime soon, they would all be ordered to leave as they could not simply protect the Tiddertons forever.
Without the Dragon Corps' help, the Tiddertons would not stand a chance in defending themselves against the Poisonwielder, who was in the Almighty State, and this was Fletcher's biggest concern.
"Mister Wolf, before you arrived, I have gotten Elder Tidderton to agree that we shall use the motherwort as bait and lure the Poisonwielder out to ambush him! What do you think of this plan? Do you think it will work?" Fletcher asked.
The western region branch no longer had the time and resources to waste on the Poisonwielder, so he intended to take the initiative and lure the Poisonwielder out instead.
Since Leon was the leader of the reinforcement from the southern region branch, he figured that he should ask for Leon's opinion on the plan as well.
