Rhea was quick, but Cameron was quicker. The moment she raised her hand, he had already caught her arm and twisted it in the opposite direction with one hand, while he used the other to cover his nose.
It seemed that he did not breathe in any of the powder that was in the air. Cameron smirked. “Rhea, you’re still too naive, and you’ve underestimated me.”
Rhea had her arm restrained, but she did not panic at all. Suppressed, she was forced to bend her back slightly. She looked to the side at Cameron and smiled. “I’ve never underestimated you, Uncle Cameron. I know that these tricks are nothing to you as well and that they won’t work on you, so…”
“So what?” Cameron had a bad feeling about this as he stared at her sternly. He did not feel uncomfortable anywhere else either.
Rhea just smiled in response to his question. “Don’t you feel uncomfortable somewhere?”
With that, Cameron could feel that his body was starting to go numb, especially his hand that was holding onto her arm. He could not help it and released her arm, and soon the feeling of numbness spread all over his body.
Sensing that something was not right, he quickly used his willpower and used one hand to grab onto his wrist, only to see that there was a tiny needlepoint at the center of his palm.
“I know you won’t get drugged easily…” Rhea stood up straight and stretched her limbs, which were slightly sore, before saying slowly, “The powder was just to deceive you. You’re feeling numbness in other places other than your arms right now, aren’t you?”
She was right. Cameron felt that his throat and even his tongue were numb. He wanted to call for help, but when he opened his mouth, he realized he could not make any sound.
‘What kind of drug is this? I’m surprised that it has such strong effects.’
