Chapter 199: Chapter 199

Underneath her black hair, the female doctor’s red lips formed a gentle and charming smile.

“A private clinic created by the Master, rest assured, this place is absolutely safe.”

“Wait—my body!” Yi Chen immediately recalled his encounter upon leaving the Old World, remembering the icy feeling of his neck being cut, he quickly checked his current physical condition.

Aside from being somewhat cold, his body was normal, and he could feel shallow sutures at his neck.

“Could it be that you reattached my right half that was buried at the bottom of the lake?”

“Correct, the surgery went smoothly, or shall I say, your physical body was very cooperative. As soon as it was attached, iron chains with needles crazily grew from your neck, reforming and merging with your right half.

Your soul has completely fused with the iron chains, no wonder those monks insisted on chasing you.”

His survival was wholly due to the silver-haired young man in front of him.

Although Lorrian’s malevolence could not be overlooked, Yi Chen’s attitude toward and understanding of him had greatly changed… He walked straight to the desk, expressing his gratitude with the manners of a gentleman.

He then pulled over a chair and sat opposite Lorrian, as he had something he needed to clarify in person.

“Lorrian, besides the Watcher, is there anyone else outside the tunnel?”

“Yes, your team member seems to have a good relationship with you.

He has been waiting outside for you all this time and his own strength is formidable. If he were to break through the Limit of Man and cooperate with the Watcher, he might really pose a threat to me.”

“No… it’s not your little girlfriend. It’s that chubby young man, I remember his name is Ludwig Reagan.

This guy, although he appears friendly and treats you well, harbors something very evil inside… I have seen this kind of ‘evil’ in Doctor Macaul at the Twilight Clinic.

They could even be said to belong to the same species, one look and I can distinguish them.”

Yi Chen could probably understand what Moon Scar was saying, knowing well that Reagan was an extremely paranoid person, capable of doing anything for his girlfriend.

Once his girlfriend’s issues were touched upon, he would immediately change his standpoint. Yi Chen only hoped that Reagan could find a way to revive his girlfriend and resolve his issues.

Yi Chen muttered, “Since Jin isn’t at the tunnel entrance, could she have already gone back?”

Moon Scar waved his finger, “That might not be the case. That woman cares a lot about you. She would definitely wait for you until you come out, and I’m completely certain about this as an observer.

That woman must still be in the Old World.

Either she’s already dead,

or like us, when approached by a duke, she must have been seen as valuable by some power in the Old World.”

Yi Chen wasn’t particularly worried, “Although Jin is crazy, she also cherishes her own life… With her talent and the mysterious illness of the Red Lotus, being eyed by some big shot in the Old World is plausible.

By the way, how long has it passed?”

“We have been wandering the Old World for a week, and you’ve been unconscious for ten days after coming out.”

“Damn! It’s been seventeen days already?”

The planned day-long expedition in the Old World had turned into half a month, making him suspect that Zion might even declare him missing or dead.

Lorrian closed his book, stood up, and walked towards the floor-to-ceiling windows behind him, gazing at the round moon outside.

“William, after you fully recover, do you want to go ‘to the moon’ with me?”

“Let’s talk about that later, I still need to rely on Zion for growth, skills, and obtaining the ‘Gentleman’s Skin.’

To wander freely in such a world, I must at least reach the standard of Zion, that is, the standard of a Watcher.”

Unlike their first meeting, Lorrian was not insistent this time.

“Then let’s wait for you to continue growing, after all, obtaining ‘novels’ still depends on you… You are indeed too weak, following me wouldn’t be very interesting.”

“Where do you plan to go? Continue wandering among different human cities to absorb the essence of medical skills?”

“No… I have already obtained the ‘Path’ from the duke, and now I am going to some more dangerous areas on my own, attempting to defeat and assimilate some powerful pathogens, deepen the connection with the source of Pathological changes, and strive to reach a higher level.

Also, I will collect some valuable treasures along the way, hoping to exchange them for valuable moonlight treasures from the duke soon.”

“Alright, good luck.”
