Chapter 3537 Poisoning

Bloodfang Viper, Mortis Spider... Matthew mused as he gazed at the dishes laid out on the table in his room on the third floor.

If Shaun had overheard Matthew's thoughts, he would have been shocked, for Matthew had named every ingredient correctly. These were precisely the poisons Shaun had extracted for this attempt.

"Well, seems like someone's getting impatient. His restraint isn't as impressive as I thought."

Without hesitation, Matthew dumped the food into the trash can and then focused on planning the next day's fight.

Agreeing to Garrett's proposal to face Shaun hadn't been a spur-of-the-moment decision. His primary objective was to investigate Shaun's connections with the Marine Corps' shipment—and to take control of the Viper Crew once he was done.

As for Garrett... Matthew hadn't yet decided what to do with him.

Next day's fight would undoubtedly involve some dirty tricks from Shaun's side. But Matthew wasn't worried about whoever faced him in the arena. No matter how skilled Shaun's fighter was, unless he managed to bring in a grandmaster-and not just any grandmaster, but one of the elite-there was nothing to fear.

That said, there was no point dwelling on what-ifs. Whatever came his way, he would deal with it.
