Your killing blow splits the vile creature in two, severing the venom sac located below its tongue. The small amount of fluid remaining in the sac splashes on your weapon and immediately it gives off wisps of acrid, green-grey smoke.

Unless the weapon you are using is a Special Item, the acid quickly corrodes it and renders it useless. (Delete this weapon from your Weapons List.)
