Sun Ying was the first to react. She looked at President Wu, who was drenched in sweat. She deliberately asked in front of The Clown, "President Wu, are we, are we going back?"
President Wu glared fiercely at Sun Ying. He secretly glanced at The Clown, only to see The Clown staring at him in a very peculiar way.
That gaze was like how he would look at the girls on Hongdeng Street in Sujing.
Suddenly, fat President Wu recalled a rumor. It was said that many of these special ability users would have some peculiar preferences.
So President Wu instantly felt that his current situation had changed from life-threatening to chastity-threatening.
Luckily, there was another ability user in his car. Making eye contact with Long in the front seat through the rearview mirror, President Wu had already regarded Long as the last line of defense for his chastity.
"Long, go talk to the Clown. We really are in a difficult spot now and need to head back."
Long: "..."
"President Wu, I don't think there's anything to talk about. We're outmatched here..."
President Wu's expression instantly darkened.
"Long, you're not listening to me--"
Snap!
In the middle of President Wu's words, The Clown opened the rear door next to him. He took out a balloon from somewhere and put it in his mouth to blow it up.
Seeing The Clown's actions, everyone in the car fell silent.
Vroom--
Suddenly, the roar of a car engine came from behind.
The few mercenaries hired by the Starlight Group in the last vehicle had started their car and fled after seeing what had happened to the people in the cars ahead.
Looking at the retreating armored off-road vehicle through the rearview mirror, although they knew that the people in that car probably couldn't help much, Sun Ying and the others still revealed indignant expressions.
The Clown tied off the inflated balloon while slowly laughing, "Hehe, what's the use of teammates like them?"
"Don't be angry, I'll teach them a lesson!"
As he spoke, The Clown took out a remote control. Opening his crimson mouth, he clamped the antenna between his teeth and pulled it out.
Then, with the four people in the car looking on anxiously, the smile on The Clown's face grew even wider.
His gaze followed the fleeing armored off-road vehicle. When it reached a certain spot, he pressed the button on the remote control with a snap!
Boom!!!
A billowing burst of flames lit up the nighttime highway!
The off-road vehicle, reinforced with defensive armor and weighing several tons, was sent spiraling into the air before everyone's eyes!
When it reached a sufficient altitude, the armored vehicle spun back down!
Bang!
A jarring crash of deforming metal rang out, with the flames from the explosion flickering violently in the night wind!
Gurgle--
President Wu secretly swallowed his saliva.
At this point, even Sun Ying, Long and the other two had ugly expressions.
Previously, when they were being chased, those people were trying to capture them alive in order to find out why they had come to this area.
But this guy in front of them...
Would directly go for the kill once he made a move. He didn't even consider leaving them an escape route.
Sun Ying cautiously asked, "Excuse me, are you...are you Dr. Lu's man?"
"That's right, it was someone surnamed Lu who sent me to pick you up."
The Clown put away the detonator and tied the long, inflated balloon around President Wu's neck.
Seeing The Clown's hand trembling as it held the balloon while moving around President Wu's neck, Sun Ying beside them truly became a little worried.
Firstly, she was worried that The Clown would suddenly twist President Wu's neck.
Secondly, she worried the balloon would suddenly explode.
"Hehe, darling, first, don't touch this balloon, second, don't go too far from me. Otherwise, this balloon might explode!"
Hearing The Clown's words left the other three people in the car completely confused. Whether the balloon exploded or not, could he still remotely control it?
At this time, President Wu himself cried out, "There's, there's a smell of gunpowder in this balloon!"
Sun Ying and the others: "..."
Long: "President Wu, I'll go talk things over with this Clown. We really are in a difficult spot now and need to head back."
"Like hell you'll talk! Have you not heard of 'when in Rome, do as the Romans do'? Now that we're in someone else's territory, we'll follow our host's arrangements!"
At this moment, seeing The Clown reveal a smile uglier than crying, President Wu said, "Mr. Clown, I, I'm Wu Xiong. Next, please, please lead the way ahead?"
The Clown didn't speak. He took out another balloon and started blowing it up.
This time, the other three people in the car became nervous.
"Huff-- Puff--"
Every time The Clown blew into it, their hearts would violently throb.
On the other hand, President Wu was feeling better now that he had company.
However, this balloon did not end up around anyone else's neck. Instead, The Clown lightly tossed it into the sky. The balloon was sent flying far away in the night wind.
A moment later...
Boom!!
The balloon in midair exploded with a violent burst of flames, causing all four people in the car to jump in fright.
Seeing the ashen face of President Wu next to her, Sun Ying scooted as far away from him as she could in the opposite direction.
As for President Wu, he had completely lost the ability to speak. A large wet patch had formed in his crotch area, filling the car with a pungent stench...
...
In the second half of the night, Wei drove the entire way trembling until finally arriving at the East Suburban Medical College in Yuncheng.
Behind him, The Clown followed leisurely and carefreely.
Along the way, The Clown stopped the car several times to deal with some "tails." Each time he stopped, he scared the four people in the car ahead into a cold sweat.
By now, Lu Yuan had already finished treating that infected person earlier. Dissecting the infected had provided Lu Yuan with new future medical knowledge once again.
Soft biomechanical prosthetic limb structure.
Before The Clown's group arrived, Lu Yuan had already completely figured out this field of knowledge.
Such soft biomechanical prosthetic limbs probably wouldn't be of much use to ability users, but they would definitely have immense appeal to the male members of the privileged classes!
Because combined with some specialized knowledge Lu Yuan had already mastered, they could enable the customization and transformation of that particular part of the male anatomy.
Things like entire snake shapes, loach shapes, earthworm shapes, and so on...
Now the doctor Lu Yuan had gained another skill.
That infected person who had provided Lu Yuan tremendous help did not end up hung up in the freezer. Instead, he obtained a temporary room on the minus three floor.
This was the number three test subject Lu Yuan had reserved. After all, test subjects couldn't only be normal people and ability users. Infected ones were indispensable as well.
When Sun Ying and the others arrived, as soon as the car stopped, Wei, Long and Sun Ying sprang from the vehicle as if it had nails sticking out of the seats.
Leaving only President Wu alone in the car.
"You heartless people!"
President Wu cried out as he gingerly extricated himself from the vehicle.
He looked back hoping to find The Clown, only to discover that The Clown completely ignored him and hopped up the stairs toward the clinic.
Luckily, in front of the reception hall, he caught sight of Lu Yuan in his white doctor's coat.
From a safe distance away, Sun Ying called out a greeting, "Dr. Lu, we meet again!"
"We're so grateful that you came to pick us up tonight. This is our President Wu. He's responsible for the discussions and negotiations this time."
Lu Yuan strode forward very enthusiastically to shake President Wu's hand. "President Wu has come a long way. You must be exhausted!"
President Wu forcibly squeezed out a smile to politely respond, "You must be Dr. Lu? I have admired you for a long time--"
As soon as their hands gripped each other, both involuntarily revealed astonished expressions.
President Wu felt something slimy on his hand, while Lu Yuan caught a whiff of the smell of urine.
President Wu proactively changed the subject. "Dr. Lu, what is this stuff on your hand?"
Lu Yuan looked rather embarrassed. "I'm so sorry, President Wu. I just finished dissecting a snake-form infected person."
"I just remembered that I didn't apply anesthetic when skinning the snakes, and those two snakes actually started moving. As a result, I accidentally got some blood stains on myself. I was a bit nervous when I heard you coming and forgot to clean it off..."
Dissecting, snake-transformed infected person, skinning snake scales, didn't apply anesthetic, got some blood stains...
Wu Xiong looked at Lu Yuan and blinked. Huh!
This Dr. Lu has quite a sense of humor!

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King.
