Chapter 231 Licking Wounds

• Dixon brought his hover bike down to rest just above the ground for Lisa and Hanna to get on. Hanna was nervous at first, this would be her first time flying. Though after facing the Twisted and other traumas she didn’t even realize her nervousness until they had already taken off. Hanna clung to Lisa’s arm as she marveled at the sight of everything shrinking below her.
• As they rose over the cliff and headed for the dam, Lisa looked back at the people below by the barge. “It’s a shame I can’t go ask them what those gas rockets were made of. If we had them, we wouldn’t need to worry about the Twisted coming back here again.”
• “Don’t fret yourself about that.” Dixon said with a bit of a sigh. “That is an invention of the Sun People, those crazy guys with all the mud on them. They keep the important ingredients as a secret. The Hunters Clan and other big business entities have tried to buy or coerce the information from them but, for years now, they have kept it a close secret. All I know is that they use a desert weed called Creeping Mahonia. It smells sweet and has edible berries, but it alone does nothing to irritate the Twisted. Whatever its mixed with the plant is key but no one has figured it out yet.”
