Venom Pool Novels & Stories

“I didn’t even hear you.” “It’s okay,” I assured her, and I approached her desk. “What’s going on?” “I found something strange about the venoms,” she explained, and she gestured at a few of the vials. “The ones that we couldn’t identify? I’ve been running tests all morning. Even though they’re all very different, their chemical structures are similar. If my hypothesis is correct, it seems like they were all produced according to the chemical structures of Udosyn.” “Does that mean that the other kinds of poisons were recreated using the base of Udosyn?” I wondered.

"Not everyone gets this kind of help. You should know how valuable they are." "What is the root called?" Melinda asked looking the charred wood over. "How can they be good for you?" "It is called Heaven's Venom. A type of poison. It can only be grown from the blood of a cultivator hit by powerful lighting. Very good at killing parasites that thrive off of eating synapses." Ren said politely. "The parasites grow and grow till they burst out. Making it difficult to move around beforehand. With the little critters eating away at one's synapses it makes it to difficult to do much of anything."

Toxicity already mapped thin, black veins up the ankles of the people nearest the break. Leo waded into the waist-deep pool of poison. I felt the structural failure of my own soul. The violet water hit Leo’s legs, and through our Shared Heat, I felt the agony—the sensation of a thousand jagged needles driven into his marrow. His skin reacted instantly. “Leo, get out!” I projected the thought into the bedrock, my stone frame vibrating until the floorboards warped. He ignored me. He reached into the rushing violet water, his small hands fisting around the jagged edges of the shattered pipe. He used his good left arm and his broken right shoulder, groaning as he fought to pull the leaden ends b

Light’s flickering, tendrils of black smoke unfurled from behind him, curling around the council members closest to him. They appeared in the underground atrium a second later, interrupting the elders who were chanting a prayer in unison. “Why did you bring us here?” Ronin spit. “We need Dr. Reynolds!” “He won’t be able to help us,” Nikolai stalked over to the hecatolite pool, getting in and floating Liora just near the water’s surface. “Luna’s been poisoned with a very rare, very old toxin called kneiom.” “Knee what?!” Lucien quipped, rolling up his pant legs and getting in the pool beside Nikolai. Thaddeus and Caius followed suit, wading in the water until they stood opposite.

Somehow hearing whatever that was made me dizzy. It was mocking me. Speaking without words. But I couldn’t be distracted. I dipped my hand into the pouch at my side. A special present I'd requested from Vann — black sap venom. It was meant for putting down beasts of burden that were too wild to be tamed. It was an extremely powerful poison, the kind that fed on rot and spread even better in decay. I popped the cork with my teeth and smudged the thick sludge across my claws. It burned my skin. Good. It would hurt the beast more.

It had a strange, milky viscosity to it, a chemical sheen that caught the harsh light of the room. "Liquid fire," I whispered, the realization making my stomach drop. "It’s a localized coagulant neurotoxin. Arthur Vance’s old research from the Oakhaven facility. They’re coating the rounds, Vulture. Even a graze will freeze the lungs in twenty minutes if we don't counter it."

Inside, the roar of rushing subterranean water was deafening. ​"The aqueduct," I said, pointing to a dark, swirling pool of black water at the back of the cave. "It dips deeply below the bedrock and channels straight up into the lower dungeons of the Keep. It’s a three-hundred-yard swim. One breath." ​Vesh stood at the edge of the freezing pool. Without a word, she reached up to the clasps of her heavy, bone-white helm. ​I held my breath, my heart pounding against my ribs.

"I made a special poison to put on the edge of the stakes. I want to make sure that even if we don't get the chance to stab Amon and his crew in their hearts, the poison alone will kill them." "What's in the poison?” Viktor asked. "Snake venom, rat acid, and garlic. Speaking of which, we need to wear gloves. You don't want to touch this stuff." I handed Wendall and Viktor a pair of black gloves before giving them each two stakes to put in their backpacks. Once we were situated, I nodded. "Alright, guys, let's go." We jumped out of the van, and followed behind Wendall, who led the way to the tunnel. We had been walking for what felt like at least 10 minutes when Wendall stopped.

Lorenzo POV We went back into the car we came In and drove straight to the house, after which we went to the underground equipment room. According to Vince, he had injected Scarlett with a mini liquidated microchip, the chip is untraceable due to its liquid state, but can only be traced when the serial number of that particular dose is typed into the system, it will lead you to its current location. “Why the fuck did you bring her in here?” I asked,

Venom clamped a hand over his mouth to stifle a scream, tears streaming down his face. Trembling, he fumbled with his schoolbag and began recording the horrific scene on his phone.
