Chapter 149: Chapter 149
The tips of the two wooden boats just touched, forming a straight line across the center of the lake.
An unintended creation of the Twilight Clinic, the perpetrator of the False Moon incident, the origin of the new Moon Transformation Disease, the unrestrained Patient Zero.
Moon Trace Lorrian, Lorrian, the Moonscars.
In this meeting, Lorrian seemed to have gained more understanding of the world and mastered deeper methods of concealment, preventing Yi Chen from seeing the “Frame System” that should have been visible above his head.
If it weren’t for the female doctor by his side, one might actually mistake him for an ordinary human.
Lorrian stretched his right arm toward the sky, his palm making slight stirring motions… The dense clouds were instantly dispersed somewhat, casting down a spotlight-like effect of moonlight, coincidentally landing on the center of the lake.
With Cold Lake as a stage, and the two as its main characters.
The primary purpose of this moonlight was disguise and concealment.
If someone happened to pass by the lakeside of the cemetery, looking towards the center of the lake, they would see nothing at all.
“I knew you were a principled, humane guy and definitely wouldn’t accept the first option.
Let us talk about the safer option two then.”
Moon Trace pointed at the female doctor by his side.
“First, let me introduce, this is my newly improved atypical patient, also one of my favorite female doctors, I haven’t given her a name…[She]is fine to be referred to as this for now.
After leaving Twilight Clinic, I visited many human cities and had private exchanges with some highly skilled doctors, usually taking their most flexible finger at the end of our meetings.
A total of thirteen fingers have been attached to her body, and after long-term training, she has become very proficient in various types of surgical procedures.”
During the introduction, the fingers connected to the female doctor’s body via catheters also swayed, seemingly greeting Yi Chen.
“The second option is very simple, it requires no one’s death.
We only need to perform a surgery on site, cut off half of your body, and then sew me into it.
Once we successfully head to the Old World, I will voluntarily separate from you.”
“Do you want to take over my body?”
As Yi Chen cast this critical question, Lorrian hastily waved his hand to deny it, “Although I am very interested in you and was initially insistent on combining with you to return to the ‘Dual Moon Form.’
But now, my combination with Elton John (a Moon Transformation patient with performing abilities, former theater owner) is going well.
I don’t need you for the time being.”
At this moment, Moon Trace removed the medical gauze from his right eye.
A full moon pupil emerged, its surface still marred with some impurities, needing more time to recuperate.
“Even if I really wanted to take over your body, not now.
Your current developmental state is very good, much better than I anticipated. I would not obstruct such development by grafting an imperfect body prematurely.
This time, I am merely asking you for help, don’t slap me with the villain label.
Compared to some of you humans, I am quite benevolent.”
“Benevolent? The benevolence that wipes out an entire city?” Yi Chen retorted fearlessly.
“Don’t talk nonsense, I just placed the moon in the sky, never getting involved personally… And besides, they might not see it as a slaughter but more as a ‘Promotion Selection.’
That’s enough~ If we delay any longer, your chubby friend might come along with the Tomb Guardian to find you, tell me your decision.”
There was never really a choice to begin with, but Yi Chen had been aware of this from the start,
“Option two, but I have three conditions.
1. You can cut off half of my body, but my entire brain must be preserved.
2. Bury the cut-off part of my body at the bottom of the lake and conceal it using your abilities.
3. You may not interfere with any of my actions during the climb.”
“Hmm~ I can agree to the first two, but this third one, we need to talk it over a bit.
