Chapter 219 Return
Finally, after a moment of stunned silence, the three of them reacted. The bald man immediately turned around and ran towards his laboratory, where there was a magic wand!
Seeing the bald man's terrifying moving speed, Liu Chi smacked his lips. It seemed that he could not catch up with him. Even if he took out his pistol and shot now, the man might disappear as soon as he aimed.
When Lance saw that the Minotaur didn't move, he realized that it was Liu Chi who was helping him.
"Lord Liuchi, where are you?"
As Lance finished his words, Liu Chi's true body appeared on the side.
Liu Chi thought for a while, looked at the anxious Lance and said,
"We have obtained Eugene's consciousness. Now... let's go. If we delay any longer, it will be bad for both you and Eugene."
Seeing that the goal had been achieved, Liu Chi did not want to take the risk of letting Lance continue chasing. As the old saying goes, don't chase a desperate enemy.
If the bald man is pushed into a corner, he might die together with the others, which would be a waste of time.
Lance immediately agreed to Liu Chi's proposal. He did not dare to use this inexplicable power at the moment. Leaving here should be the best option.
After the two men agreed on their goal, they quickly left the basement of the villa, almost without looking back, and got into a carriage in one go.
"Where are you two going?"
Seeing Liu Chi and Lance get on his carriage with nervous expressions, although the coachman knew that something might happen, he didn't want to get involved in unnecessary matters. He was only responsible for taking the money.
"In the direction of Li Luo, the faster the better!"
Liu Chi said that he didn't expect the carriage to be able to return to Lilo non-stop. The only way to achieve travel speed was to run as fast as possible and change carriages at the right time.
"Are you two from the Imperial Capital?"
The coachman quickly started the two horses running and started talking to Liu Chi and the other man with a try-it attitude.
"No."
Liu Chi said without hesitation that he had an oriental face and was most likely not from Liro.
All the coachman wanted to do was to ask some questions and find out the background of the two men.
"Who are those two? Why are they at the border of the empire? Are they here for tourism?"
Seeing that the coachman began to check the household registration in a joking manner, Liu Chi did not choose to avoid it, but started to weave lies on the spot.
Being able to work as a coachman in the chaotic border area, he must be a good person. In other words, he speaks differently to different people.
"It's not a trip, we're just in a hurry to go to Lilo for some business."
"Oh! Hehe~ But since we are going to Lilo, why did you just let me go in the direction of Lilo?"
After saying this, the coachman quickly understood what Liu Chi meant.
"Are you planning to kill me? Haha~"
Hearing the coachman's jokes coming from outside the carriage, Liu Chi did not respond, but just said lightly,
"Would you please hurry up?"
The coachman was also stunned. He didn't expect Liu Chi's attitude to change so quickly.
Then the carriage began to speed up.
In this way, after changing several carriages and coachmen, it only took three days to return from Berghead to Lillo, which was one day shorter than before.
The two people who returned to Lilo immediately used the fortress's molecular teleportation to arrive on the fortress ten thousand meters above the ground.
After Liu Chi placed the magic wand next to the treatment chamber where Eugene was being treated, he followed Nanako's instructions and used an instrument to connect the magic wand and the treatment chamber.
After finishing, Liu Chi walked out of the room.
"Eugene, how is she?"
Seeing Lance's anxious look, Liu Chi pressed his palm.
"Eugene she's fine, now you better go get surgery to get the bug out of your brain."
Lance was very surprised to hear Liu Chi's words. He didn't understand why there was a bug in his brain.
“Is there a bug in my brain?”
Liu Chi nodded and then explained,
"This bug is probably the source of Butler Fox's and now your power."
After hearing Liu Chi's words, Lance was frightened. At the same time, he understood why he was parasitized by the Insect King. It seemed that the original butler's body had been hollowed out.
“How do you get the bugs out?”
Lance began to wonder again. The bug was inside his brain, so how could he get it out?
"Craniotomy!"
Liu Chi smiled, and just as he expected, Lance refused with great resistance.
"Wouldn't that kill me? How can a person live if his head is broken?"
Liu Chi smiled. If he had not been exposed to modern medicine from Zhu Xiu's memory, he would also think that craniotomy was fatal.
"Trust me, what is happening around us right now may not be explained by common sense. We should hurry up without delay. The longer the Insect King stays, the more danger there will be!"
Seeing that Liu Chi was serious and was not joking with him, Lance agreed with what Liu Chi said about the craniotomy.
Afterwards, under Liu Chi's arrangement, Lance took off all his clothes and entered the treatment chamber in another room.
After putting on the respirator and inhaling trace amounts of nerve-paralyzing toxins in the air, Lance fell asleep directly.
The robotic arms in the treatment chamber also began to work quickly.
Extremely delicate and quick, the entire craniotomy took only more than five minutes from start to finish.
An emerald green insect was firmly fixed by a mechanical arm and placed in a device beside it. Its emerald green body kept twisting, as if it was angry and relieved.
After looking at the surgical scene information provided by Nanako, Yanagi also became interested in this small insect that can directly provide power.
"Nanako, have you seen this kind of bug?"
"No, this bug seems to be artificially bred. It is mixed with DNA from many kinds of organisms."
"is it?"
While being surprised, Liu Chi also felt a little admiration for the bald man. He didn't expect that he was actually a biological magician who was good at recreating various creatures.
At the same time, Liu Chi was also worried that the bald man would develop some kind of monster that would endanger human life, just like the living dead.
While Lance was still unconscious, Liu Chi walked into the room and took out the emerald green bug.
Due to having nothing to eat, the Insect King has become much smaller than before, and its originally round and plump body has turned into a wrinkled skin.
After a close observation, Yanagichi was about to destroy the insect king, but was stopped by Nanako.
"Leave it to me. Genetic reprogramming is a difficult problem in biology. I want to see what this worm is made of."
Seeing Nanako speak, Yanagiike, who was interested in insects, agreed to her request.
"Then I'll leave it to you. It's a good opportunity to analyze what this is."
After Liu Chi put the Insect King back, the mechanical arm in the room started to operate and picked up the Insect King.
Then Nanako began to analyze the Insect King.
