Upon hearing Charlie’s remarks, the twelve individuals felt their doubts dissipate, replaced by a hint of excitement.

Initially, the antidote had to be administered every seven days, but now they were informed it would be stretched to fifteen days. This extension was undoubtedly a reason for celebration among them.

Noticing their eagerness, Charlie produced twelve antidotes, distributing them one by one. He stated calmly, “In five minutes, each of you will meet me in the next office, following the order in which I handed out the medicines.”

He added, “By the way, the British Lord places great importance on this new antidote. During the testing process, if you experience any sensations different from the previous antidote, please provide me with detailed feedback. Should any significant discoveries arise, I will surely recognize your contributions to the British Lord!”

The group nodded respectfully, exchanging glances before simultaneously taking the antidote and swallowing it.

Charlie chose not to linger and exited the meeting room, closing the door behind him.

Within mere seconds, the Xiaoqiguards would begin to realize that this antidote was effectively eliminating the poison from their systems.

From that point, the decision to either hide this information or declare it would rest solely on each individual’s inclination to break free from their constraints.

As soon as Charlie entered the adjacent office, the twelve individuals in the conference room sensed something was amiss.

One of them opened his eyes wide and exclaimed softly, “Everyone, has the poison in my body vanished?! Is it just my imagination?”

Another replied, “Mine has also disappeared… it’s real, not an illusion!”

Excitedly, a third person chimed in, “Could it be that there’s a flaw in this new antidote?!”

“It must be!” a short-haired man sitting in the center couldn’t contain his excitement as he declared, “Regardless of any flaws, this antidote has rid us of the poison, which means we are no longer under their control!”

A man next to him quickly interjected, “Are you suggesting we betray the organization? If they catch you, it could mean your death!”

The short-haired man retorted, “What’s there to fear? We’ve all taken the antidote. If we remain silent and inform the special envoy that the antidote is normal, he will likely distribute it to others!”

After a brief pause, he continued, “Don’t forget, we have over 200 Valiant Cavalry Guards, numerous family members in the residential area, plus thousands of soldiers stationed beneath the copper mine! If the antidote can truly cleanse everyone’s systems, neither Jiedushi nor his guards can compete against us, and even the special envoy would be outmatched!”

“At that point, we could seize control and take over the entire copper mine!”

However, someone immediately raised a concern, “What’s the benefit of taking over the copper mine? Once the organization realizes this place is beyond their control, they will undoubtedly send reinforcements to encircle us!”
