Asthenia Powder, colorless and odorless, appeared as a fine powder.
After it was mixed with air and inhaled into the body, under normal circumstances, people would not have an immediate reaction.
But once one used his strength, he would feel weak all over, unable to exert any strength.
If it had been a normal situation, John would definitely have taken precautions.
Asthenia Powder, however, was mixed in when the Reynolds brothers just now poured out the medicinal materials.
It was mingled with the dust inside. Moreover, everyone paid attention to the medicinal materials. Therefore, even an experienced man like John fell into the trap, let alone the others.
The Reynolds brothers couldn’t help laughing proudly, as if they had already taken control of the overall situation.
They did not care whether it was an instructor in the imperial army, a superior officer, or a young lady of a wealthy family.
It seemed to them that the lives of all on the spot were in their hands.
The Reynolds brothers, who had earned their living in Fatuma and Chamber Mountain for decades, had extraordinary courage and martial arts and relied on their intelligence.
“Mr. Smith, if you hadn’t been poisoned, the three of us together couldn’t have beaten you.” Randy, in the lead, put on a smug face.
“But now, any one of us can beat you easily! You should accept the fact!”
Eric Reynolds, the youngest one of the Reynolds brothers, also smiled, “Mr. Smith, I advise you sit down obediently. Don’t act recklessly!”
John widened his eyes angrily, mortified at having been conspired against by the weak.
He takes a deep breath and prepares to forcibly detoxify in a self–inflicted manner.
However, John was reluctant to take that step unless absolutely necessary because it would also harm him, which wasn’t worth it. It would inevitably lead to hidden ailments in the future, negatively impacting his strength.
“You are the Reynolds brothers, right? I remember you all! How dare you poison me? You are so bold!
“Do you know who I am? Do you know who my father is?”
Darius also warned angrily.
“Afterwards, I will definitely tell my father, and we will join forces with the colleagues of Fatuma Police Station to encircle and suppress you! You have nowhere to escape!”
Faced with Darius‘ threats, ordinary thieves would definitely be frightened.
But the Reynolds brothers, a group of desperadoes, didn’t seem afraid.
“Mr. Timon, right? We are so scared!”
The Reynolds brothers pretended to be scared and then laughed jokingly.
“Do you think we will be threatened?
“The three of us are wanted criminals. We are not afraid of joint encirclement and suppression.”

Gloria gritted her teeth secretly. She didn’t expect that with John following her, she was still trapped. Villains could not be prevented!
For a moment, the atmosphere at the scene was tense.
On Gloria’s side, even though they were weak, they still refused to cooperate, and they were very
resistant.
Seeing this, Brad hurriedly persuaded them. “Ms. Baker, we have all suffered from Asthenia Powder and are completely weak. It is better not to confront the Reynolds brothers head–on. “Why don’t we sit down and have a good talk? We bear no deep grudges against them. I think the Reynolds brothers won’t go too far.”
Randy said, “Mr. Harrison, you have a clear view of the current situation.
“You are right. We only want money, not anything else. If you are sensible, you should cooperate obediently and avoid suffering.”
Just when Gloria wanted to say something, Leones suddenly spoke,
“Okay. Let’s sit down and have a talk!”
Randy smiled, “You are quite smart!”
Leones said that and seemed to give in. Even though the others were angry, their reason told them they had to endure this unfavorable situation first.
“Hmph!” John snorted coldly and sat back down again.
Seeing that everyone sat down obediently, Randy nodded in satisfaction.
Then he continued, “The century–old wild ginseng, ambergris, Cordyceps sinensis, and medicinal mushroom are all natural treasures. Each of them is worth 100 million dollars, and with our travel costs, it is 500 million dollars in total!”
Randy looked at Gloria and the others with a smile, as if he were looking at a flock of lambs waiting to be slaughtered, smug and arrogant.
Five hundred million dollars?!
As soon as Randy offered the price, the faces of Gloria and others were as cold as frost.
If the medicinal materials in front of them were more than a hundred years old, 500 million dollars would be acceptable to the Baker family because it was a life–saving medicine.
However, these were fakes, and Randy still asked for an exorbitant price.
It was simply unreasonable!
“Do you think the money of the Baker family is all brought by the wind?” Gloria snorted coldly. “I won’t even pay 50 million dollars!”
Randy sneered, “Ms. Baker, haven’t you realized the reality? You have no right to bargain with us
now!
“Five hundred million dollars. Not a single penny can be less. Otherwise, my brothers are all rude, and I am not sure if they will do something bad to you!”
Smiling, his brothers stared at Gloria with lustful eyes.
“How dare you!” John immediately flew into a rage. He was mentally prepared. If the Reynolds brothers dared to act rashly, even if John would die with them together, he would never let them touch a single hair of Orlando’s granddaughter.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense again.
“Our patience is limited.” Randy warned coldly, “I’ll give you a minute to think it over.”
“No need.” At this moment, Leones suddenly said, “Let’s settle at this price!
“Each of them is 100 million dollars, but they must be genuine. We won’t lose you a penny.
“But if you can’t provide the century–old medicinal materials, leave your heads!”
As soon as these words came out, the Reynolds brothers were slightly taken aback, not understanding what Leones meant by these words.
They thought, “Must they be genuine?
But he already knows that these are all fake. Why is he obsessed with the authenticity of the medicinal materials now?”
“They are here.” Randy reached out his leg and kicked the four medicinal materials on the ground, looking a little impatient.
The wild ginseng and the medicinal mushroom rolled down to Leones‘ feet.
Leones didn’t even look at them, raised his leg, and smashed all the fakes.
“I’ll say it again. As long as they are genuine, we won’t lose you a penny. But if you only have fakes, you’ll pay with your heads!”
What?!
As soon as he finished speaking, the Reynolds brothers were shocked and angry. Leones‘ words. and deeds had obviously angered them.
“Damn, you are courting death!”
Paul Reynolds immediately stepped forward and reached out to grab Leones.
Paul wanted to catch Leones and teach him a lesson on the spot, which was also a warning to the
others.
After all, among Gloria’s group of four, only Leones seemed to have no background or identity, and they had no worries about their actions.
But the next moment, a cold light flashed in Leones‘ hand.
Paul froze in his footsteps. Then he clutched his throat, stepped back a few steps, and fell dead on the ground with a bang.
“You were the one who sought death first!” Leones replied coldly, wiping the dagger lightly. “Paul?!” Randy widened his eyes, glanced at his brother, and then looked at Leones in shock. “Haven’t… Haven’t you been poisoned?”
“Hump! Do you want to control me with mere Asthenia Powder?” Leones smiled disdainfully.
