Jack's expression suddenly turned furious. "Tell me, where's Flynn? Were you the one who gave him the idea to mess with me?"
Alex had planned to withhold the information that Jack wanted. "How dare you…"
A deafening slap rang across the room. Alex's cheek immediately began to swell, as if stung by a bee. His resolve finally crumbled after seeing Jack move closer to him, injection needles still in hand.
"That's enough! I'll talk! I'll tell you everything. You're right, I was the one who put Flynn onto you. Flynn… He's on his way to Alnewgo Clubhouse to meet some friends. Please… please have mercy…"
"Good! Since you were so obedient and told me so quickly, I'll let you off easy this time."
Jack lifted one of the injection needles and stabbed it into Alex's left buttcheek. It immediately began to swell up after the liquid was injected into his flesh.
Alex howled in pain, "It hurts! It hurts so much!"
Caspian dragged Charlie's unconscious body closer to Jack and Alex. After a few powerful slaps from Caspian, Charlie started to groggily regain consciousness. Caspian used the remaining injection needle on him, injecting the red liquid deep into his veins.
Charlie's face was pale as he asked, "What did you inject into me?"
Alex's other followers looked on with pity in their eyes.
Meanwhile, Alex was already feeling the effects of the drug. "Hurry! I… My whole body itches!"
The drug was scarily effective. Or it would be more accurate to say it wasn't that the drug was too effective, but that Jack had injected the pair of them with way too much of it.
The amount that he injected into their bodies would have been sufficient for a bull. How could a regular human body withstand it?
Alex started thrashing about on the bed. Charlie's body was heating up as well, his eyes turning red. Jack signaled for Caspian and his group to ready their recording equipment.
