The Apocalypse Grinder - Chapter 280
<< Chapter 279| Index| Chapter 281 >>Ronan was surprised by the pleasant taste of the Serum of Rabid Randomness. There was no specific flavour that he could pick out, but rather a general tingling on his tongue and a blend of tastes that made his tongue say ‘nice’ to his brain. The moment he swa...
