Chapter 18: Vessel of Disaster (Thanks to the Alliance Leader 'viburnia')
"Done, everything is arranged."
In the afternoon, Lu Feng, who had disappeared for a whole day, finally returned with a cheeky smile. While Ji Jue was washing his hands, Lu Feng lay on Ji Jue's hospital bed and started picking his feet, unceremoniously.
"Mom took Er Niu and the others back to the village to live for a few days. The repair shop is closed for now, and will be reopened after things are resolved.
I've also been to your house, the door is fixed for you, but the refrigerator is completely scrapped. You can move the one from the shop back to make do for now.
Also, the little scooter is parked in the hospital shed for you. You can pick it up yourself when you are discharged."
Saying that, he took the car keys out of his pocket and put them on the table.
Using those two fingers that were just picking his feet...
Ji Jue felt his eyelids jump, wanting to say something but stopping: I don't want these keys anymore, can you change me a new one?
But thinking that his little pink scooter was half-sold and half-given to him by Lu Feng after he changed to a tricycle, and it was a second-hand girl-used 99% new one, maybe this foot had already picked on the seat who knows how many times...
Is it too late to put it on Xianyu now?
After the usual disgust, he still shared half an apple with Lu Feng. Watching him eat it in two bites without washing his hands, Ji Jue couldn't help but give a thumbs up to his digestive system forged in Middle Earth.
But the constitution is different after all.
Besides being electrocuted, Ji Jue only crawled and rolled twice, and didn't even have many bruises on his body, but until now he could only move by shuffling. Instead, this dog Lu Feng, after fighting at close range with those ghost things and getting shot, had no idea how many big and small injuries he had, but after sleeping, he could jump around.
"Envious, stinky brother?"
Lu Feng showed off his biceps, grinning: "I urged you to exercise early, you didn't exercise. Running a thousand meters makes you collapse, now you know regret?"
Ji Jue rolled his eyes and ignored him.
Seeing Lu Feng jumping around, saying he wasn't envious would be a lie, but he was more concerned about whether Brother Watch had any changes. It's a pity, yes, and only a little bit.
Besides draining aberrant spiritual quality to his heart's content, the progress bar was pulled back to 99 again, and the number 【0】 covered by gold on the dial finally changed.
If the original degree of coverage was 80%, now it was almost 99%, and only a tiny bit of space was not covered.
It's a pity that it still didn't complete the great breakthrough from 0 to 1.
Stuck on the progress bar.
No matter how anxious Ji Jue was, it didn't move at all, leaving that tiny bit unfilled, making his obsessive-compulsive disorder flare up, wishing he could dismantle the watch cover and fill it in himself.
He could only burn incense and kowtow in his heart, hoping Brother Watch didn't pick up some bad habits from certain shopping websites before the disaster era, where there is 99 after 99, with no end in sight.
Otherwise, he would probably only be a 0 in this life.
"Also, this is for you, take it first."
Lu Feng took out something wrapped in two layers of black plastic bags from the side pocket and stuffed it under Ji Jue's pillow. When Ji Jue identified the outline of that thing, he couldn't help but gasp.
Gun!
His face turned white.
"Big brother, this is a hospital, what do I need this for?!"
He asked in a low voice, reacting halfway, staring vigilantly at Lu Feng: "Why are you suddenly exploding equipment? Don't tell me you were drafted by the Security Bureau?"
"Am I crazy? I finally crawled out of the Military Department's mud pit, and you want me to drill into the Security Bureau's hole? Without the Military Department's conscription letter, dreaming of moving my personnel relationship in the Federation."
Lu Feng waved his hand, covering up his embarrassment: "I'm going out to avoid the limelight, hiding for a while... If a woman with a scar on her neck asks about me in these two days, you must not say anything!"
"What did you do again?" Ji Jue stared suspiciously.
"You think getting so many things doesn't cost money?"
Lu Feng rolled his eyes, saying in a low voice: "The cheapest pistol with twelve bullets costs 28,000, plus middlemen adding layers of price.
Damn, for just this little bit, I lied and coaxed, almost selling my ass. If I don't run fast, I'll have to sell sperm to pay off the debt and be caught by people to be a star slave!"
Ji Jue was silent.
Staring straight at him for a long time, he finally patted his shoulder, comforting: "Brother Feng, don't think too much, people who do duck work also need education and looks."
Ji, you motherfucker...
With one knife down, Lu Feng was instantly broken.
"If you need education and looks, then you go! Anyway, it's all for this family!"
Lu Feng said halfway, suddenly his eyes lit up.
Yeah, why didn't he think of that?
"Look at those tragic dramas, aren't they all played like this?"
Lu Feng persuaded earnestly: "Big brother owes a debt in the outside world, parents are sick, younger brothers and sisters have no money to go to school, Er Niu finally got into Tianmen, you as an older brother don't know how to express it? You have to buy her a computer and a phone, right?
Boys don't need to study much, as long as you loosen your pants, the family will have everything!"
"Get out get out get out!"
Ji Jue was no longer polite, kicking him off his bed with one foot. Watching Lu Feng walk away swaying, his originally tense mood relaxed a little.
Seeing him still able to joke, things didn't seem that big, at least not that big. Comrades, comrades, heh, I'm afraid it's the kind of comrades who often exchange techniques in the artillery battalion!
"The brothers have a good relationship."
On the bed next to him, the thin old man with a cast on his leg sighed, muttering: "Hey, my brother... hasn't been in touch for many years. The two boys at home are always at odds, fighting every day."
"Oh, children, they are always naughty, they will be sensible when they grow up."
The aunt on the other bed comforted: "Aren't my second and third children the same? When they grew up, they knew life was hard, and they knew their own family was reliable. Two days ago I went to see them, their relationship was so good they slept in the same quilt. The eldest occasionally went to live together."
The old man sighed: "Harmony in the family brings prosperity, old sister has blessings."
Only Ji Jue, who was dumbfounded beside them, wanted to say something but stopped several times.
In the end, he didn't dare to speak.
He lay on the bed, dreaming of the great dream of going from zero to one, and gradually fell asleep.
Outside the window, twilight was falling, at dusk.
A deafening explosion came from the distant wind.
A thick smoke slowly rose from the foothills at the other end of Yacheng.
"What's going on?"
In the violently shaking office, smoke was swirling. In the courtyard outside the window, employees were screaming and screeching, turning into non-human monsters, attacking the intruders.
Only in the CEO's office, which had just changed its new nameplate, was it silent.
The old man hiding behind the window was dumbfounded.
Frantically dialing the phone in his hand, once, and again, finally connecting amidst the busy signal, he couldn't control his anger anymore: "What's going on? Lawrence, what the hell are you doing?!"
Lu Wending was about to faint, trembling in horror: "Didn't you say it was foolproof?!"
"The experiment is indeed foolproof."
The steady and gentle voice on the other end of the phone replied: "Please rest assured, your sacrifice will not be in vain."
"What do you mean?"
Lu Wending felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar, screaming: "Don't forget, who pulled you out of the mud pit, if it weren't for me..."
"Sixteen patents that are enough for your company's valuation to increase several times, isn't that enough?"
Lawrence laughed: "Besides, I have already exhausted all my strength to produce ten standard longevity drugs and sin-tainting mitigators without side effects for you, to help you rise to the top.
As for the slight trouble caused by this, it is just an inevitable side effect. As a pharmaceutical CEO, don't you ever read the manual?"
"Our contract is over, Mr. Lu. Thank you for your support and dedication all along. In future papers, I will vigorously thank you.
This is a great achievement engraved in medical history!"
"Achievement your mother!"
Amidst the approaching loud sounds, Lu Wending roared, yelling at the phone: "Don't forget, without me, who would help you find qualified test subjects. For such a long time, you only raised so many wastes, and the only one that was considered a result, that bitch, also died.
Wait, I can still..."
Snap!
Before the words fell, a crisp sound rang out.
A golden chain appeared from mid-air, and then, fell apart.
The Covenant of Heaven, broken here.
"Now, please make your final sacrifice for our great cause."
In that instant, Lu Wending stiffened on the spot, breathing violently, vomiting blood uncontrollably. Scarlet permeated from the corners of his mouth, veins burst, and his hands grew rapidly, turning into sharp claws.
Immediately after, another twisted head grew from his shoulder.
His body expanded, and expanded!
In just a few snaps of fingers, he had already broken through the shackles of the wall, rolling out like flesh, and in the eyes covering his whole body, despair dissipated, leaving only the hunger and madness of a beast.
Amidst the falling dust, in the ruins, the voice from the phone still came.
"By the way, forgot to tell you, please don't worry, the experiment will inevitably have results."
Lawrence smiled, full of joy: "I have already found a better 【Fetus】, no, should say—a genuine, Vessel of Disaster!"
But Lu Wending could no longer hear it.
The aberrant ghoul, weighing tens of tons, was like a mountain. Strips of limbs and arms extended from its body, as if a giant mouth spanning its body opened, spitting out poison and acid.
Just twisting its body, it cast a huge shadow.
Slowly turning its head, looking at the intruder who didn't belong here, opening its mouth, and pouncing out!
Then, it flew back the same way, slamming into the factory building, falling into the production workshop, and was nailed to the ground by a crystal giant pillar that appeared out of thin air.
Wen Wen didn't even pay attention to what the thing she had thrown out was.
At this moment, amidst the siege of many ghouls, her eyebrows frowned, listening to the phone that had just connected, becoming more and more irritable: "Can you speak human language?"
Sacrificing a new book. The author is a newcomer like me, but I didn't expect to be like-minded and talk happily. His lewd and shameless appearance is just like an old friend of mine. I hope that after sacrificing him, I won't be stuck in writing anymore...
If you like a relaxed and happy style, you might as well go and see. Of course, leave the monthly tickets to someone like me who is reliable and reliable! ===== CHAPTER 19 =====
