Listening to Sun Ying and Wei's conversation, Long's hands on the steering wheel began to tremble again. He really didn't want to go back.
Two hours later, the car with three people drove back to Yun City. By this time, the sky was already dark. Long drove towards the eastern suburb of Yun City based on his memory.
The streets of Yun City were quiet and silent under the night curtain. Often one could not see even one or two people on an entire street.
Squeak -
Suddenly, the three people in the car heard a very strange sound.
Sun Ying looked out the window and saw a man in the darkness of night hopping on one foot while walking, however...this man's hops were quite far.
Seeing the distance that man leapt out on one foot, the eyeballs of Long and Wei almost popped out.
Sun Ying asserted, "It must be a bionic limb that allows such a powerful leap. It looks like a high-quality one."
Wei was very surprised and said, "Because hunting demon beasts is too dangerous, such high-quality bionic limbs are often priceless."
"I didn't expect someone here to be able to spend a lot of money to buy it. It seems I really underestimated the potential of these small cities."
The car slowly approached, and the three of them could gradually see clearly that it was a young man, who seemed to be carrying something unusually thick on his back.
Wei wondered, "Huh? Why did he only install one leg?"
Because her own industry was related, as soon as Sun Ying saw this rare bionic limb, she immediately became interested.
She ordered Long, “Long, drive slower. Let's follow behind him and take a look at that bionic limb.”
"Okie dokie."
Long was about to slow down, but then...
Squeak!
That man with only one leg standing by the street leapt forward again. With just one leap, he left Long’s car far behind.
Long hurriedly stepped on the gas pedal to catch up.
At this time, the one-legged young man also noticed the car following behind him.
This was none other than Seventh Brother.
He was now a night security guard at Xia Group and was on his way to work.
Seventh Brother looked at the license plate of the car following behind him - it was empty, most likely an out of town car.
Seeing those three country bumpkin-like people staring at his bionic limb, Seventh Brother couldn't help but reveal a hint of smugness on his face.
Hmph, a bunch of country bumpkins!
Never seen such an awesome bionic limb before, huh?!
Installed by Dr. Lu himself!
Thinking this, Seventh Brother deliberately held his breath and leapt forward violently. Squeak!
This forceful leap was a full double the distance of his previous jumps!
Not only that, after landing, Seventh Brother even stood on the toes of his one leg with both hands raised gracefully above his head, making a heart shape!
At this moment, the three people in the armored car were completely shocked!
"That, that must have been nearly a hundred meters!"
"My god, what is this? That's a ballet move! How could a bionic limb installer..."
"No no no, that's not a bionic limb! That's an infected beast warrior! And a pretty sick one at that!"
"Bionic limbs will always just be artificial limbs. There's no way they can be as agile as real biological limbs!"
"He saw us! He saw us!"
"Crap, it's dangerous! Brother Long, turn around, quick!"
In the driver's seat, Long looked at Seventh Brother very calmly. One hand on the steering wheel and the other hand casually resting on the window, as if he was about to light himself a cigarette.
He said very calmly, "He is just an ordinary person. There is a trace of demonic beast aura on him, but it is not strong. Those are real bionic limbs."
The people in that small clinic were much more terrifying.
Long only thought this to himself and did not actually say it out loud.
Hearing this, Sun Ying and Wei didn't seem to quite believe it. By the time the car got close again, Sun Ying decisively said, "Long, stop the car. I'll go have a chat with the lad."
Long was about to hit the brakes, but -
Squeak!
Seventh Brother leapt far away again with one leg.
Sun Ying and Wei looked at Long at the same time.
Feeling the gaze of the two, Long gripped the steering wheel with both hands and pressed down on the accelerator. Vroom -
In an instant, the armored sedan roared forward in chase!
In front, Seventh Brother listened to the motorcycle-like roar behind him. A hint of contempt flashed across the corner of his eyes and a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth!
Hmph, just a bunch of country bumpkins!
Right at this moment, Long stepped on the gas pedal so that the car pulled up beside Seventh Brother. Just as Sun Ying was about to speak, Seventh Brother took off the long package he was carrying on his back.
Under the puzzled eyes of the trio, another thick object was revealed inside the package. It was shockingly another bionic leg!
At this moment, the eyes of the trio immediately changed into a slightly fearful shock!
"What, what is he trying to do?!"
"He can't be planning to come over here and hit us with that leg?!"
"Don't worry, we're in an armored vehicle. Not afraid of legs, not afraid of legs..."
The next second, Seventh Brother calmly unscrewed the mechanical metal ring on his broken leg with a nonchalant expression on his face.
Click click
Click, click, click!
Under the nervous stares of the three, Seventh Brother successfully installed the other bionic leg onto his broken leg!
Then Seventh Brother began stretching exercises on the spot. The three people in the car were dumbfounded.
Wei didn't seem to quite believe his eyes. He blankly asked, "Sister Sun, the bionic limbs nowadays, they are so advanced?"
The shock in Sun Ying's eyes was no less than Wei's. Due to her abundant industry experience, Sun Ying understood even more clearly what she had just witnessed!
Detachable bionic limbs?!
For a detachable bionic limb, doesn't that mean other prosthetics can detach as well?
In theory, if one bionic limb can be detached, then the others definitely can be too!
Because once the detachability issue of the first bionic limb is solved, changing to other prosthetics is just an interface issue!
Just imagine, someone with the ability to switch between different bionic limbs, how much would their combat power increase?
What is this?
This is a technological revolution in the industry!
At this time, Seventh Brother, who had installed a second leg on himself, reached out to the three people sitting in the armored vehicle -
And flipped them the middle finger.
Sun Ying immediately guessed what the young man in front of her was about to do. She almost shouted, "Long! Catch up to him! We can't let him get away!"
"O-okay!"
Long stammered a response and hurriedly stepped on the accelerator, but...
With the second leg on, Seventh Brother perfectly demonstrated the characteristics of the Blood Demon Ape's thick lower limbs!
He strode forward vigorously, each step faster than the last. Before Long could shift gears and accelerate, Seventh Brother had already rushed to the next intersection ahead!
He turned around and disappeared like the wind into the night!
By the time Seventh Brother's figure completely disappeared, Long's car had just started moving into gear below.
Sun Ying and Wei turned their heads to look at Long at the same time. Feeling the eyes of the two people, Long could only lower his head and say, "If it was a race...I would definitely be faster than him..."
As a driver, this was Long's last bit of stubborn pride.
"Phew -"
Sun Ying took a deep breath. She had seen such groundbreaking bionic limbs here in Yun City. She thought for a while and said to Wei, "Send an email to headquarters immediately to explain the situation here. Remember to attach the video from the car's recorder."
Wei nodded. "Okay!"
"Long, it's late, let's find a hotel to stay first."
"Tomorrow we'll go to Dr. Lu's place. Perhaps we can get some information from him."
"Alright."
...
East Suburbs Medical College.
Amidst the deep night, apart from a few sparse lamps still on, the entire medical school was pitch black everywhere.
Clinic, 5th Floor, Room 97.
This was Little Grass' room.
Squeak -
Suddenly, on this quiet night, the window of Little Grass' room opened.
Immediately after, a head made of straw slowly emerged from the window, carefully observing the surroundings.
The red light in its eyes flickered from time to time, as if hinting at Little Grass' nervous mood at the moment.
After making sure it was safe, Little Grass lifted its legs made entirely of hay over the windowsill and jumped down.
Swish!
Little Grass made some noise in the flower bed below, causing all the straw leaves on its body to shake violently!
Little Grass immediately stood up straight in the flower bed.
That's right, it was pretending to be a lifeless scarecrow.
In the past when Little Grass encountered creatures it felt were very powerful enemies in the wilderness, it would always use this method.
And in fact, most creatures would take it as a real, lifeless scarecrow.
Clearly, Little Grass was also using this method now.
It stood firmly in its original spot for over half an hour before twisting its grass head slightly.
Confirming no one was around, safe.
Then, under the cover of night, Little Grass slowly made its way toward the medical school's front gate.
Every stretch of the journey, it would stand erect and motionless in one spot for a period.
In that moment, it was as if it had returned to the good old days when it really was a scarecrow.
Effort pays off, and finally, Little Grass arrived at the front gate.
Even after getting here, Little Grass remained extremely cautious.
It did not immediately rush out of the front gate, but stood at the entrance pretending to be a scarecrow for another half hour.
Confirming there was no movement outside the gate, this time, Little Grass swiftly ran out of the medical school's front gate.
In an instant, the two red lights in Little Grass' eyes started blinking rapidly!
It was extremely excited!
Haha! Finally escaped, they want to imprison me?!
No way!
Heehee!
Before leaving, Little Grass took one last look at Dr. Lu Yuan's clinic inside the medical school, then rushed headlong into the darkness before it without hesitation.
However—
Little Grass had just taken two steps out when it immediately stood still again pretending to be a scarecrow.
W-What is this thing?!
The red lights in Little Grass' eyes blinked lightly a few times, it had some difficulty comprehending the creature that had appeared before it.
At first glance it was clearly a ferocious alligator with three heads, but looking at its cheerful appearance...
It can't be an idiot can it?
Alligator?
Or idiot?
Alligator?
Or idiot?
Grass!
It's an alligator!
When that Mechanical Blood Marsh Crocodile King opened its massive blood-filled maw to bite Little Grass, the pitiful scarecrow finally had the answer in its heart.
