The World of Beasts: She's Got Their Hearts novel Chapter 142

"Is that what Nelson told you?" Ryan was still doubtful.

"Why do you think Gideon is in pursuit of Nelson and trying to kill him? Don't you remember how Nelson was covered with injuries when he first arrived at our alliance?" Russell rolled his eyes at Ryan, who remained silent.

It did seem reasonable. Nelson had been half-dead when he arrived that day.

"But The Reclaimers are still the enemies of Interstellar Alliance. I still don't think we can trust them."

Ryan still felt that The Reclaimers and Nelson were not to be trusted.

"Aren't these alliances just afraid of us?" Russell returned to the couch once more and sat down. "Do you really think that there are two souls in Sean's body? How could something so ridiculous exist? This is just because Scott was the victor. He imprisoned Sean, and now he can say whatever he wants."

Ryan pressed his lips together, wavering at Russell's words.

Many things that didn't seem reasonable back then were starting to make sense now.

"Just buy five potions as usual today, and we'll bring them back for research. When the time comes, we'll expose Gideon's deceptive scheme!" Russell looked confident.

Over at Shadowhawk Alliance, the acting lord, Francis Kanz, knocked on Gideon's laboratory door and entered.

"Mr. Clarke, Colossus Alliance hasn't responded. They just ordered five potions. Also, there are many negative comments about you on the interstellar network now."

"Oh? What are they saying?"

As Analise had been around, Gideon also hadn't seen the interstellar network for a few days.

"There was an account that seems to be from one of The Reclaimers, and it mentioned just now that the new reagent they're developing is to help therians control natural elements."

"I saw that, too. It says that itchiness and temporary loss of consciousness are just clinical manifestations and side effects of the potion."

"Doesn't that mean that we shouldn't take the potions manufactured by Gideon? We want to get abilities, too!"

"What nonsense are you all talking about? This is the antidote potion that Ms. Chamber and Gideon developed together! I trust Ms. Chamber!"

"Yes! You are all being illogical. You can't possibly think that The Reclaimers are good people, do you?"

"Are you Gideon's lapdogs? Why are you so anxious to yap on his behalf?"
