Mamon Youth Development Program

Although Stephanie is called a "merchant who sells everything", she should actually be called a "merchant who never buys normal things". Her products always have some weird functions, just like the first bottle she exchanged Medicine, while curing Viper, it also has the effect of "accelerating hair growth".Of course, with Ambra's illusion, Viper's hair looks like a broccoli no matter how long or short it is, and this side effect is ignored.

So it's not that Viper doesn't have the spirit recovery potion in his hand, but both Stephanie and Viper agree that they should not even touch this potion until it's a life-threatening moment.

[Spirit potion (giant × male only): Instantly restore the spirit to the maximum, and let people experience the life of the opposite sex. (Note: The time limit for sex change is 6 hours, and the secondary traits are guaranteed to develop well. Both oral and external use are acceptable.)]

Resolutely took out a few bottles of spirit potions from his bag, Viper chose giant and poor for men without hesitation, and threw all of them at Scaru with a wave of his hand.Skaru dodged back, but the liquid in the bottle still touched him.

In an instant, his brain felt a wonderful feeling, as if all the exhaustion had been driven away, as if he had just slept, with an unprecedented sense of relaxation, he felt that he could even carry out those perverted researches of Verdi now .

"Bastard Viper, what are you spouting!?...!" Skaru realized that something was wrong when he said this sentence. His voice seemed to have changed, and his body felt something wrong. "Senior Colonello? Senior Verdi?...Why are you all looking at me like this?" It was like seeing a ghost.

Finding that the clothes were not right, some places were tight and some places were loose, Skaru raised his hand, and in the place where he didn't feel right... he felt something strange - two lumps of flesh.Looking down, the clothes were stretched tightly on the body, and the zipper was even broken.Two lumps of meat...soft, round, and elastic.

"...What is this!?" Skalu lightly squeezed twice. "What the hell is going on here! What is this!? What's wrong with this! I shouldn't be like this."

He suddenly figured out something, touched down, and was stunned. "...No, no more..."

Everyone present turned their heads away slightly, only Viper looked at him, shook the empty bottle he picked up from the ground beside him, and smiled.

"Bastard Viper, what have you done!?" Skaru rushed forward, pressed Viper under him, and grabbed his cheeks with both hands, pulling them to both sides. "It's gone! It's gone! It's gone! It's gone—!"

"Take the invincible spirit without medicine! (Don't pull my face!)" Viper struggled, but unfortunately his strength was not enough. The only thing he was lucky was that his hat would not be pulled off when he was lying on the ground. If they saw him hairstyle, he would rather die! "When Nu blame bombs, say! (It's your fault!)"

The people watching the battle could no longer hold back the laughter pouring out.

Scaru can't bring Viper with him now, so Colonello and Feng look at each other, what should we do?

Colonello stepped forward and pulled Skalu away, and Feng squatted down in front of Viper, who sat up while rubbing his face and continued to mock Skalu, and stretched out his hand. "How about I carry you?"

Viper said nothing.

So Feng carried Viper on his back and followed the crowd.

The body temperature of the wind is hotter than Viper, which can be easily felt on a hot summer day.

The slight shaking made Viper even more sleepy, and his sanity was a little unclear.His brain short-circuited for a moment, and he remembered that Fantazima was still resting in the egg, so he took Fantazima out, pulled off Feng's collar and put the egg on the back of his neck, but immediately put it back.

"What's wrong?" Feng asked, feeling his movement.

"I want you to hatch the eggs for me." Viper put away Fantazima and confessed honestly. "However, it seems too hot...then forget it."

At that moment just now, Fantazima was tossing and turning in the egg, and the only Viper who could hear it screaming couldn't understand, but he roughly guessed that he was shouting something like "I'm burning to death."For Fantazima, anyone with a higher body temperature than Viper is hot, and anyone with a lower body temperature is ice, so it only looks for Viper.

Feng's smile was a bit stiff, and the corners of his mouth twitched: "Is that so...that's really...thank you...love..."

Skaru suddenly snorted in confusion and paused.Why does my stomach hurt a little?

Everyone turned to look at him in unison.

Viper suddenly remembered what Stephanie specifically instructed, and said with a sneer, "The second trait is guaranteed to develop well..." The soft, sleepy voice clearly reached everyone's ears.

Skaru thinks he understands something...

"Asshole! When will this situation pass! Viper!"

"Who knows that kind of thing, it will probably last a lifetime."

"...Go to hell, bastard!" Skalu yelled and rushed forward, Viper twisted decisively to block the wind in front of him.The Chinese man caught between the two was neither crying nor laughing. Fortunately, Colonello stopped Scaru in time to prevent the situation from worsening.

Skalu was still yelling, but found that no matter what he said, Viper never spoke back.

He fell asleep, and only sleep is the oldest and most normal way to restore mental strength.

Scaru lowered his voice, muttered a few words, and ran lightly to the front to find Luche and Lal.

"Sorry no..."

"That kind of thing you think I will carry with me?"

"Scarlu-kun, when you get back, wash your clothes properly."

Apart from these few words, no one spoke again.

Skalu could only cry inwardly, staring fiercely at someone's sleeping face on the back of the wind.

After this mission, everyone discussed with the representative of Garcafis about the information leak this time, and threatened that if such a thing happened again, they would never continue the mission.

With the other party's guarantee and a large amount of compensation, Viper generously said that there is no problem.

And now, the time is the first night of the return voyage after the mission is over, which is actually the second day before.

The location is... aboard a military ship.

The reaction to seasickness this time was obviously much better than last time, Viper heaved a sigh of relief, and looked at the seasickness medicine in his hand under the light.

Why is Viper on a military ship and why does he have seasickness pills in his hand? These are all questions.

On the return journey, Gakafis did not provide a boat ticket, and Lal found a military ship nearby that was just about to go back. After showing the documents, she and Colonello were allowed to board.

Viper himself wants to go back to Italy as soon as possible. In fact, after the previous assassination, he has been wanting to go back to the abandoned street to have a look, and he doesn't know what kind of state Ambra and Carlo are now.

Between calling Stephanie and the two of them back there together and rubbing the boat on Lal's side, Viper decisively chose the latter. Long-distance teleportation would be a heavy burden on Stephanie's physical strength.

After being stared at by Viper for a long time, thinking about how this guy can be regarded as his savior, Lal, who can roughly guess what he wants to do based on Viper's temperament, which is completely different from the rumors, sighed, and Colonello beside her laughed. Then patted her on the shoulder.

In short, there is no need to pay for a boat ticket.

Not feeling anything wrong, Viper just got a free return ticket.

It is worth mentioning that Verdi, Scarlet, Feng and Luche were on the boat with Viper, and basically all of them boarded this boat except for the killer who had some affairs abroad.

The ships that were originally used for official business were treated as ordinary cruise ships by these guys.

The seasickness medicine was thrown into Viper's hand by the killer before boarding the boat, and he said "If you are really seasick, it would be better to take some medicine." Then he left.

At that time, he was still awake not long ago, and the sequelae of mental overdraft hadn't healed yet. Viper looked at him in a daze and turned around to leave.

This... probably won't be poisoned.

I took the medicine with the mood of giving it a try, and the symptoms of seasickness that had been relieved were also within an acceptable range.

That's good, Viper heaved a sigh of relief, and turned to look at the night sky outside the window.

It's really cold at this time...

While thinking about it, Viper transformed into a blanket and wrapped it around his body.

My own strength has also increased a lot in the previous two battles. Now, it is already a little higher than Ambra's strength, so this can be regarded as a teacher at last.

It's just worse than Carlo...

As Viper thought, all kinds of thoughts were concentrated in his mind, tangled up in a mess.

Can't sleep.

Lal stared at the ceiling.She seems to be insomnia.

Tossing and turning, she couldn't calm down every time she closed her eyes. There should be darkness in front of her eyes, but she always saw other things.

The night was very cold, Lal got off the bed, and when her feet touched the ground, she still couldn't help frowning slightly, it was too cold.Lal couldn't help shivering, rubbed his arms, took the clothes aside and put them on his body, and stood up.

Before she knew it, she had been part of the "Strongest Seven" team for some time.

The weather abroad is really bad... But it should get better when I return to Italy, it's a serious summer there.

Walking out the door, there is an orange light outside the door. This color is not white and dazzling, but it brings a bit of warmth to people in this season.

Lal went downstairs, and the slippers stepped on the stairs, making a continuous sound.

After drinking a cup of hot water, she turned her head to look. The lights in the hall were still on, and she could hear some sounds.

Is anyone in the lobby at this time?Does anyone else have trouble falling asleep like her?

The hot water brought her some warmth. Lal held the cup, hesitated for a moment, and walked towards the hall. She could vaguely guess who was there.

After all, there is a stove in the hall.

Walking to the door of the hall, Lal looked, the man was sitting on the sofa next to the fire, with his back to her, from this angle he could only see the man's head, covered in the quilt.

She knew in her heart that she had guessed right, so she raised her foot and walked towards that person. When the other person heard her footsteps, she also turned her head slightly, and then turned back immediately.

"It's you, Viper." Lal said in a quiet, sure tone.

"It's you, Lal." Viper remained motionless, still looking at the burning fire.

Lal sat across from him. The sofa was not very cool, and it was estimated that it would warm up after a while. She fell back, leaned on the soft sofa, held a water glass in one hand, and looked at the person opposite her , and asked, "Can't you sleep too?"

"Hum~ I guess." Viper was still wearing his quilt at this time, and his whole body was wrapped in the quilt in a ball, only showing the lower half of his cheeks, a few strands of hair and most of his palms, holding a book in his hands. Hot water, curled up on the sofa. "... I don't know why, I can't sleep..." He had already fallen asleep at this time before, but this time he just couldn't sleep, and even his biological clock, which was always punctual, completely forgot him. Viper was so depressed that he wanted to drink sleeping pills.

"Me too." Lal was shaking the water glass, looking at the water inside, the orange light was flashing on the surface of the water, "I don't know why I just can't sleep, it's obviously a very simple thing, and it can be done easily at ordinary times. But this time... I find it difficult to even sleep."

Even the simplest things in ordinary times will become extremely difficult at a certain moment, and even the common things that can be seen all the time may at a certain moment, search the whole world and find no trace.

Viper looked at Lal, and Lal also looked at Viper, and they found that each other's body was covered with a layer of warm orange red by the flames, which seemed a little different from usual.

"Today..." Lal looked at Viper, still unable to see his eyes, but at this moment, even the inverted triangle on his face was different from the past, melted into those fire lights, no longer the coldness of the past.His hands holding the water glass were not as pale and cold as before.This illusion filled with warm colors softened her heart a little. "Thank you very much."

"...I remember you said 'thank you' once when you woke up." Viper said, lowering his head and drinking a sip of water. "If you think that if you say it a few times, you can not pay, it is impossible. Even if you are a woman, even if you say it a hundred times, don't try to delay my payment."

"..." Lal really didn't understand, it was just a thank you, why was it misinterpreted by this person to such an extent, forget it, he was suffocated to death in Qian's eyes, didn't he already know about this kind of thing?

It's a pity that she finally wanted to say thank you.

She lowered her head, and suddenly remembered Viper's action of drinking water before, and inexplicably felt that the puffed cheeks of this person were cute.Even his voice became cute, and of course his words were...

Lal sighed, maybe it was an illusion, maybe it was the impact of the fire, she always felt that Viper's cheeks were flushed for a moment. "Don't worry, I promised, I won't default."

"That's the best."

Lal suddenly remembered Viper's pale face before.She could naturally see that Viper was not mentally stable at that time, and even his steps seemed a little vain.

"...Are you... all right?" Lal said, looking away from the fire.

When Viper looked at Lal, he naturally saw those fires dancing in her eyes, dancing in her brown eyes, warm fires.This time... it was Viper's turn to have the illusion.

"It's nothing, I'm not someone who would be vulnerable because of that kind of thing."

"I think so too."

They watched the fire together.

"Ah!" Viper sneezed suddenly, shrunk back, touched his nose, and when he lowered his head, he found that there was no hot water in his water glass.

Viper fell silent.

Although at this moment, Viper didn't express his entanglement, but Lal watched him staring at the water glass, and a guess that he also thought was bizarre arose in his heart.This guy...wouldn't want to add a cup of hot water, but would not give up the quilt, sofa and stove, and be entangled with it...

After all, he is also the number one illusionist in the world, it is impossible... no!It seems to be the case!

Lal silently looked at Viper who turned his head slightly to the side, sighed silently, and stood up.

"Give me the cup." She held out her hand and said, "You're nothing but a brat, Viper."

"What kind of a brat is that!" Viper immediately retorted, looking at it from this angle, it made Lal feel that he was a bit cute. "Let's talk about it first, even if you help me, I won't pay you."

"Who would need your money?" He took the cup, went over there to get a cup of hot water, Lal walked back, and put the cup into the hands of Viper who had been looking at her.Watching the little ghost take a sip and continue to hold the water glass and shrink there, just like a thing called zongzi that Chinese men once mentioned.Lal couldn't help asking, "You don't really feel cold, do you?"

Viper silently glanced at her without saying a word, and Lal didn't ask any further questions, and went back to sit on the sofa opposite him, still silent.

How could it be possible not to be afraid of the cold? thought Viper.

The nightmares are various, and he was frozen to death more than once in the dream.

Why are you better at ice illusion?Because he knows ice.Because he knows what cold is, because he knows the feeling of being numb in hands and feet and about to freeze to death.

So... Viper makes perfect ice.

"Even if it looks warm, fire...is not always a good thing."

"what?"

"No, nothing."

To create illusions, you must first understand what you want to create, only in this way can you use illusions best.Umbrella often takes Viper out just to get him hurt.Remember that feeling, and then in the illusion let others feel that feeling.

"are not you cold?"

"It's cold. The temperature here is indeed much lower than in China."

"Then this time, I will barely charge you."

In the blink of an eye, more flames appeared around them, burning blazingly, making the surroundings warm. Viper threw the quilt away, trying to convince himself of his own falsehood.

That night, Viper and Lal were not in their room, they fell asleep on the sofa in the hall.
