Chapter 1324

The stealth weapon and the poison on the weapon were still hidden inside the wound.

With an urgent tone, Rio asked, “Ms. Garcia, have you figured out anything? What kind of poison has Mr. Cox been afflicted with?”

Neera bit her lip and said, “It’s cottonmouth venom.”

“Cottonmouth venom?” Everyone present had never heard of this type of snake, completely unaware of its potency.

Neera said with a grave expression, “Cottonmouth is a semi-aquatic creature. It should be quite common on small islands like this one. The venom of this snake is hemotoxic, which can severely damage human tissues. The infected area will quickly swell, harden, and bleed incessantly, causing unbearable pain.”

She glanced again at Avery’s wound, her forehead already beaded with a layer of cold sweat.

“Judging by the state of his wound now, the snake venom should have already spread throughout his body.”

Having said that, she laid him down and began to take his pulse.

Rio was sweating profusely in his anxiety and quickly asked, “So, is the venom of this cottonmouth very potent, compared to, say, a rattlesnake?*

Neera didn’t respond immediately, only pulling back her hand after a moment. Her expression grew even more unpleasant.

“Cottonmouth is far more dangerous than a rattlesnake. Its venom is extremely potent. Right now, Mr. Cox’s pulse. is very weak. We must detoxify him as soon as possible. Do you have a sterile room here?”

Ronald nodded repeatedly. “Yes, yes! Due to Mr. Cox’s poor health, every place he resides is equipped with a fully stocked medical room.”

Neera nodded and said, “Take him there immediately. I need to start the rescue operation right away.”

When it came to the life and death of Avery, no one dared to waste time.

Without a word, Irwin helped Avery up and, along with another subordinate, carried him out.

Neera followed them downstairs, with Violet following closely behind.

Her nervousness and fear were plainly visible. Neera saw it and sighed inwardly.

After all, she was still a young girl. No matter how strong she might be, there were moments when she too would feel fear.

“Neenie, Satan will be okay, right? You can cure him, can’t you?”

Ever since Jean arrived, Avery’s mind had been in a whirl. It had been a long time since she had addressed someone so intimately.

Neera walked to the corner of the stairs, stopped in her tracks, and looked at her earnestly.

“I will do my utmost, but the situation is currently beyond my control, so I can’t make any guarantees. All I can say is, I will exhaust all my knowledge and skills to save his life.”

Violet’s eyes suddenly reddened, and large teardrops began to fall.

She had never cried in front of others, nor had she ever shown her vulnerability and helplessness to anyone.

But this time, she couldn’t help but cry. She even wanted to sob uncontrollably.

She clung to the hem of Neera’s clothes, her heart about to shatter.

“Please, Neenie, I beg you. You must help Satan get better. I don’t want to lose him…”

Neera was overwhelmed with mixed emotions and could only offer her an encouraging hug.

After descending the stairs, she discovered that people from both the Cox and Gordon families were present.

Upon seeing her, Albert still wore that disdainful look, showing clear disgust.

She couldn’t be bothered to deal with it. Instead, she turned to Chad and Adriana. “Uncle Chad, Aunt Adriana, what brings you both here?”

Chad looked serious. “I heard that Avery has been seriously injured. I’m worried, so I came to see him.”

Adriana asked, “I saw them carry Avery down to the basement. Are they going to perform surgery?”

Neera nodded. “He’s been poisoned by a cottonmouth. His life is hanging by a thread. I must quickly save him.”

Time waits for no one. She didn’t dare to waste time. After hurriedly saying a few words, she was ready to leave when Jean stopped her.

He opened his mouth as if to say something but hesitated. In the end, he only gave her a gentle reminder.

“You also need to take care of your own health. If you collapse from exhaustion, there will be no one left to help Avery.”

Neera knew that he was worried about her. After reassuring him, she then went down to the basement, changed into surgical scrubs, and entered the sterile room.

It was not a big issue as long as there was an antivenom available for treatment, but the current situation was that there was no antivenom.

This type of snake was rarely seen in Phison, and not many people knew about it. Therefore, the hospitals here did not have the necessary antivenom.

Moreover, a considerable amount of time had passed since Avery was poisoned. The toxin had already penetrated deeply into his body.

The only reason he didn’t die from poisoning was thanks to his sickly constitution.

Due to his prolonged illness, he had taken a lot of medicine. When he was in Essley, Neera had even specifically prescribed him medication to help him recuperate.

These medicines that accumulated in his body perfectly counteracted the venom of the cottonmouth. This was what held back the eruption of the poison within his body, thereby postponing his impending death.

However, this also implied that the treatment became more challenging.

Because there were various substances interacting within his body, his internal condition was extremely complex. Therefore, medication must be administered with utmost caution.

Otherwise, if certain medications incited adverse reactions or induced synergistic effects, they could potentially hasten the onslaught of the toxins, posing a direct threat to the heart. At that point, even if a deity were to descend upon earth, rescuing him would prove challenging.
