The monkey stared blankly at the system notification in front of it, its eyes completely glazed over.
He thought he had misread it...
I read it carefully several more times...
"How is this possible..." The monkey was filled with horror. He slowly raised his head and looked at Lin Nai opposite him: "You did it?"
Lin Nai shrugged: "What else could it be? Did a senior executive at the gene company suddenly have the kindness to help you solve it?"
"You...you really are a hacker with superpowers?" The monkey frowned slightly. "I still find it hard to believe...unless..."
[Beep beep!]
[Note: Your genetic control lock has been relocked!]
monkey:"......"
Linnaeus smiled: "Now you believe me?"
Monkey: "...I believe you..."
The monkey had a strange expression, looking at Linnaeus with a very complicated look in its eyes.
[Monkey: How did you do that? The gene lock from the gene company uses nanochips, the pinnacle of human technology. Even a national-level expert team couldn't crack it in a few months, right?]
Linnaeus: Don't worry about that, it's none of your business.
"Let's not talk about that now."
Come on, call me "Dad" first.
【monkey:......】
The monkey remained silent.
The raised muscles and tumors on his body gradually subsided.
His fighting spirit vanished, and his body gradually transformed from the "Hulk" state back into the normal, emaciated state of a monkey.
The monkey returned to normal, then looked at Linnaeus and continued to communicate with him using the system's text.
[Monkey: Regarding my G-type mutated cancer cells... can you really help me control them?]
Linnaeus: I can't, but I have a friend who can.
[Monkey: (Looking doubtful.jpg) As far as I know, suppressing cancer cells requires a high-level healing superhuman of level 20 or above. My G-type cancer cells have a vitality thousands of times greater than ordinary cancer cells. Unless it's a level 30 healing superhuman, I'm afraid there's little chance... Can you really command a level 30 healing superhuman to expend their soul power to help me?]
[Linnaeus: Do you think I'm more credible, or the genetics company's?]
The monkey didn't speak. But he lowered his head and thought about it, and it seemed that it might be true...
[Linnaeus: I can help you break free from the shackles of the gene company. You can gain your freedom and no longer be troubled by G-type cancer cells, living a completely normal life while retaining your original abilities—of course, my help won't be without conditions. You understand.]
The monkey felt a sudden tightness in its chest upon hearing Linnaeus's words.
The opportunity to live like an ordinary person...
The chance to be free from the threat of cancer cells, just like a normal person, and to maintain one's own abilities...
Linnaeus didn't say anything more, but simply looked at the monkey with a calm gaze. He believed that the monkey would definitely make a judgment that was in his favor.
About a minute later, the monkey slowly raised its hand and said in a clear voice without any expression, "Referee, I concede defeat in this match."
After a few seconds of silence in the illusionary scene, the referee's voice rang out from the sky: "Are you sure, Hou Zi?"
The monkey's expression was firm: "Yes."
A few seconds later.
"Since Hou Zi, a contestant from the Gene Company's directly affiliated academy, has chosen to concede, Lin Nai of the Night Watchman Academy wins this match!"
A few breaths after the referee announced the result, a "buzz..." was heard, and the battle scene gradually shattered.
The illusion vanished...
The white light faded, and the view before me returned to light.
Linnaeus and Houzi returned to the center of the stadium's competition area.
A series of surprised, puzzled, and confused voices suddenly rang out from the audience.
The tens of thousands of people in the stadium were completely dumbfounded, and there was an uproar.
What the heck?
These two were fighting, and suddenly they stopped and stared at each other for over ten minutes. Then, the monkey suddenly admitted defeat?!
What kind of operation is this?
"What's going on? Why did this kid from the gene company suddenly admit defeat??"
"Yeah, wasn't the battle evenly matched for the whole time?"
"I was really getting into it, is this guy messing with me??"
"Keep hitting! Don't stop!"
"Tsk tsk, I bet this monkey's immortality ability wasn't limitless. His energy must have run out. Although he seems to be immortal, continuing the fight will definitely be disadvantageous for him..."
"What a pity. I thought this monkey might actually have a chance to beat Linnaeus. For an ordinary person to beat an apostle is unprecedented..."
On the preparation bench of the gene company, Brother Zhang and Brother Li looked like they were going crazy.
"Holy crap, what the hell is that monkey doing?!" Brother Li's expression was almost frantic, and his eyes were red with anger!
The white beast sat in the back seat, arms crossed, seemingly lost in thought.
On the Night Watch's side, Lin Yuxi, Lao Zhang, and the others were also completely bewildered, having no idea what had happened.
"Linnai, he just won like that?" Nail asked suspiciously. "But how exactly did he win?"
"I think that monkey is definitely under an illusion!" A-Guang nodded with his arms crossed with certainty: "Lin Nai knew that the monkey's physical body was immortal and could not be killed, so he used an illusion to hypnotize the monkey, and then controlled the monkey's body to make him raise his hands and surrender!"
"Huh? That seems possible!" Lin Yuxi exclaimed in surprise, "I didn't expect there to be such a thing... Ah Guang, how did you suddenly become so smart?"
Ah Guang said smugly, "Of course..." Then he realized something was off and said with dissatisfaction, "Hey! Why is it called suddenly?"
"Hypnosis..." Tang Hongshan murmured, puzzled. "When did Lin Nai learn this kind of illusion magic?"
......
On the field.
The monkey looked at Linnaeus in front of it and said, "If you can really help me control the G-type cancer cells, I will be yours from now on."
Lin Nai: "...That sounds a bit strange?"
"I'm glad you understand what I mean." The monkey looked into his eyes. "I hope you're not just trying to fool me."
Lin Nai smiled faintly and said seriously, "Don't worry, I never lie to people."
The monkey didn't say anything more.
He turned around and walked off the stage.
Back at the gene company's preparation area, Monkey was immediately shoved hard by Brother Li, who angrily cursed, "What the hell are you doing?! Why did you give up? It was obvious that Lin Nai couldn't do anything to you..."
