As a matter of fact, Darryl did not wear any soft armor. He made up the lie to avoid suspicion, pretending that he could withstand Magnum's attack because of the soft armor.
Everyone in the room felt relieved when they heard that.
'We thought he was hiding something from us. It turns out he wore soft armor. No wonder Magnum was not able to injure him.'
Despite knowing that, Sofia's admiration for Darryl did not diminish. On the contrary, she further adored Darryl. 'The head of the Elixir Sector is such a genius for putting on the soft armor.'
'Soft armor?' Among the crowd, only Gigi furrowed her brows. 'That can't be. Darryl had just come to the Pure Yang Division not long ago. Even if Master is very fond of him, I've never heard of him being gifted with soft armor.'
"Huh?" As Gigi was secretly wondering, Darryl suddenly realized something. He pointed at a small leather bag on the ground next to Magnum. "What's that?"
The small leather bag was made with exquisite workmanship. It was the size of a palm in a fishtail shape, and its opening was tightly sealed with silk threads.
At that moment, Magnum was utterly furious. When he saw the small leather bag, his face changed.
Indeed, in that bag was one of the world's rarest poisons, Hysteria Powder.
Everyone looked in that direction at the same time.
"What's that?"
"I've never seen Elder Walt using that."
Magnum was eager to pick up the small leather bag after hearing everyone's doubts.
However, in that instance, Zacho's face turned solemn. Quickly, he rushed in front of Magnum and picked up the small leather bag. He saw some green powder in it.
Zacho poured it onto the table without hesitation and said, "Darryl, take a look at what this powder is." Darryl knew medical skills and would be able to identify the content.
However, he had not known that even though the herbs were the same as those in the Nine Mainland, the names were different. Even if Darryl knew the herb, he would not be able to explain it.
The elders rushed forward, took a close look, and exclaimed before Darryl responded.
