Chapter 190
Ronan ran over and handed the herb to Denver, saying. “This kind of herb can effectively paralyze people’s nerves”
Denver grabbed it and examined it. “You’re not that useless.”
Ronan was rendered speechless.
Stephanie took the herb and told them her plan, leaving them silent.
Stephanie remarked. “This is the best way. Don’t worry. I have good martial arts skills.”
At this time. Vincent walked toward them with Elvis in his arms.
Seeing how well Vincent held Elvis from a distance, Stephanie believed Vincent would be a wonderful father should they ever have children.
Vincent came closer and said. “My mentor said this kind of herb might be useful to us.”
Stephanie nodded and told him the plan.
Vincent frowned. “This plan will be less risky. Let me do it.”
Using her hand to gauge his height, Stephanie said, “Your height will make you easily exposed. Don’t worry. I swear not to expose myself
After a while, Vincent nodded.
Stephanie said. “We’ll do it tonight!”
Vincent weighted Elvis in his arms and said, “Elvis, make an OK gesture.”
Elvis immediately did as told with a big smile and said, “OK!”
Everyone was amused by his cuteness.
Stephanie and Vincent picked the herbs after lunch, dried them, and ground them into a powder.
When Stephanie was dividing the powder into two portions, Vincent looked at her without blinking.
Stephanie paused and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing. I’m worried about our action night.”
“Everything will go smoothly. Don’t worry.” Stephanie continued her work. “Those captors‘ nerves will be paralyzed once they drink the water drugged with this powder. People from Terodt Village won’t drink the water after being tortured. At that time, we can let them out before fighting back.”
Vincent frowned. “But I have a bad feeling.”
“Don’t say anything unlucky. Come on!”

Stephanie pinched his face. “Good boy.”
Vincent held her hand. “I will always be your good boy.”

Chapter 190
Stephanie curled her lips and looked extremely determined. “Vicent. I promise to cure you.”
Vincent nodded. “Thelieve you”
It was getting dark, with the stars hanging in the sky.
Stephanie and Vincent sat on the cabin steps, looking up at the stars.
The asked. “Which star do you like?”
Stephanie pointed to the brightest one. “The shiny one,“
Vincent took her into his arms and said, “Then I’ll buy it for you.
“Don’t brag! The International Astronomical Union is the only organization authorized to name stars, and it abstains from any commercial star naming or trading”
“I have a plan. Now all you have to do is think of a nice name.
Stephanie was doubtful, but Vincent had never lied to her.
Therefore, she believed it would be fulfilled. Stephanie gave it some thought before saying. “How about StephielsTheBest? It’s related to my name”
“StephielsTheBest? Let me see how good you are. You want to have sex all night?”
Stephanie glared at him. “You’re so annoying! But given your condition, can you do it all night?”
Vincent pinched her chin with his fingertips and kissed her fiercely. “When I’m cured, I make you too exhausted to get out of bed for three days!”
Stephanie knew what he meant and he was capable of that. Vincent was not just talking.
Late at night, Stephanie took the parasite from Elvis to two villages 15 miles away from Terodt Village
The two villages were not far away, and Stephanie’s king parasite given by Lola could sense where Lola was kept.
Elvis‘ parasite emitted certain smells that put other parasites to sleep, but the smell couldn’t reach far.
Therefore, the villagers‘ nerves had to be paralyzed.
If not, some parasites that hadn’t gone to sleep would become restless and realize that someone had invaded their territory.
This tropical place was dense with trees.
Even though most animals slept at night, some were nocturnal, so there was movement in the woods at times, along with the chirping of cicadas.
Stephanie wasn’t scared; she just hoped to reach the destination soon.
Stephanie had good strength. It only took her less than two hours to run 15 miles.
She sprinkled the powder into the well at Steop Village because it was deserted and the guards there were also dozing off.
The villagers would wake up the following morning, drink water, and the herb would take effect an hour later.
Stephanie left Steop Village and arrived at Poadew Village, she was shocked to see that it was well–lit and that people seemed to be celebrating
Chapter 190
She hid behind a tree and watched what was going on
People were singing and dancing like it was a ritual to celebrate
Stephanie had a wild guess that they might be holding a wedding
She could still clearly recall the elderly woman informing her that the village chief’s son had previously expressed interest in marrying Lola.
Stephanie pursed her lips, clenching her hands.
Suddenly, she saw the shirtless guard at the village gate walking toward the woods she was in.
She quickly hid herself.
Unfortunately, the man stopped behind this huge tree.
Stephanie heard rattling sounds.
He finished pissing, turned around, and walked out humming.
Repressing her disgust. Stephanie lunged to strike the man in the neck, knocking him out before he could react.
Stephanie took out a silver needle and pricked his acupoint to put him to sleep for a longer time.
She stood up and noticed another man peering through the gaps in the gate. He didn’t notice her when she walked over gently because the village was full of laughter.
After knocking down this one too, Stephanie stepped into the stockade.
Hiding behind a haystack, she observed the surroundings
On the high platform, a man dressed like a groom was drinking wine, while a girl dressed like a bride sat on a stool with her hands and feet tied up, staring at him fiercely.
Stephanie guessed the man to be the village chief’s son and the woman Lola. They were holding a wedding tonight.
Lola would be taken to his bed if she couldn’t save her sooner.
Stephanie searched for the well. It was right ahead, but she didn’t have the chance to drug it because people were everywhere.
At the sight of a woman walking toward the entrance with two large bottles, Stephanie guessed she was taking wine to the guards there.
Stephanie took her away as she passed by.
Before the woman could react, Stephanie stuck a needle into her acupoint, causing her to fall into a coma. Then Stephanie took off her clothes and put them on herself.
This was the only way for her to sprinkle the powder into the well
Stephanie straightened the clothes, hurried to the well, and opened the powder bag she was carrying.
