Chapter 344 A Glimmer of Hope
"Given Master's current situation, the only way is to take her back to my hometown."
There are higher-level SSS-level mental manipulation masters and SS-level healing masters there, who may be able to unleash her potential and awaken her.
Another point is that she is suffering from the backlash of the Heavenly Dao on this planet. Once she leaves this place, the backlash may be lessened.
Of course, these are just some possibilities I deduced from the information I collected in the database, and they don't represent a 100% probability of saving her.
After a long silence, Mao Li finally spoke. Apart from Zuo Shan, no one else knew anything about his background.
His family only knew that he was a super-intelligent robot with self-awareness and the ability to change his form.
His words essentially revealed his secret of coming from another planet.
But everyone here is willing to do anything to save their master, including the only outsider, Bo Yiyan.
The difficulty increases exponentially with each level of advancement in one's superpower.
Going from the eighth to the ninth rank is something many people can't achieve in their entire lives, but he actually injured his own essence for his master, falling from the ninth rank to the eighth rank.
This alone was enough for Mao Li to consider him one of his own and to be completely unguarded.
Bo Yiyan was shocked. He never expected that there was an alien hiding next to Zuo Shan!
But right now, the most important thing is to wake her up; nothing else matters.
"Years ago, when I was collecting medicinal herbs deep in the Black Forest, on my way back, my companions coveted a rare herb that I had collected. Taking advantage of my unpreparedness, they pushed me off the aircraft."
I accidentally fell into a huge sinkhole, but luckily there were thick vines clinging to the bottom, which saved me from death.
Then I discovered a huge spaceship covered in vines.
Its shape is different from our native aircraft; it is spindle-shaped and looks very high-tech.
If anyone gets within ten meters of it, an audio warning will be broadcast, warning the intruder to leave or it will attack.
My initial thought was to leave first and then find someone to come and study the matter later.
But when I took out my aircraft to fly away from the sinkhole, I found that it was malfunctioning and could not be started at all.
I walked to the edge of the sinkhole and was entangled by a vine. Its true form was the Ghost Entangling Vine, which had the ability to prey on small animals long before the Great Cataclysm.
At that time, it was already a seventh-tier mutated plant, while my ability level was only fifth-tier, so I was powerless to fight against it.
Moreover, it has developed intelligence. Even though I used my own concoction of herbicide to kill the vines that were trapping me, its true form commanded new vines to keep coming and surrounding me.
Finally, I've used up all my paraquat. I think I'm going to die here this time.
Unexpectedly, I escaped from a desperate situation and awakened the Devouring skill. Taking advantage of its unpreparedness, I devoured about 30% of its life force and finally managed to climb to the ground above the sinkhole.
After I got back, I found an opportunity to kill the comrade who had betrayed me.
After much deliberation, I decided to suppress everything about the sinkhole, because I was worried that someone might discover my devouring ability because of it.
Since Mr. Mao Li comes from a higher dimension, I think you might have a way to control that advanced shuttle-shaped spaceship and take Zuo Shan back to your homeland.”
Bo Yiyan's words greatly excited Mao Li. As a knowledgeable member of the mechanical race, operating a spaceship was one of the essential skills he had learned from a young age.
Given the opportunity to get close to that aircraft carrier, he was confident he could crack its code and easily turn it into his own mode of transportation.
“Dr. Bo, I’m 99% confident I can control it, unless it’s a spaceship from a higher dimension, but that probability is extremely low,” Mao Li said confidently.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's head to that sinkhole now!" Lele said impatiently as soon as she heard there was hope.
"We still need to wait for one more person. I just downgraded my level, so I'm not sure I'm confident I can deal with the Ghost Entangling Vine in the sinkhole, after all, that happened 15 years ago."
As I progressed, it must have progressed as well, and none of you here can probably rival it.
"We can only wait for Modi to return. With that guy's ninth-level superpower, he should be able to deal with that Ghost Entangling Vine," Bo Yi said.
“I’ll contact Dad right now!” Achen said.
“If he could get away with it, he wouldn’t have stopped contacting your mother by now,” Bo Yi said.
Although he didn't want to admit it, he couldn't deny that Modi valued Zuo Shan highly; otherwise, he wouldn't have allowed Ah Chen, this super little genius, to use the name Zuo Chen all this time.
For exceptionally talented illegitimate sons, powerful families always have only three options:
One option is to spend a sum of money to sever the relationship between mother and child;
The second option is to kill the mother and keep the child, taking advantage of the child's young age and lack of memory to kill the shameful mother.
Third, the mother was to accompany the child in his studies as a tutor until he was ten years old, and then the mother would stay on as a servant.
Of these three options, there is absolutely none that allows the illegitimate child to be taken back and given his mother's surname.
This shows that in Modi's heart, Zuo Shan was even more important than his exceptionally talented biological son, A Chen.
After using his time-reversal ability, Zuo Shan met with Mo Di immediately. After that, he left in a hurry and never contacted any of his family members again.
Therefore, we can infer that he must be extremely busy, dealing with a major disaster. Even if Ah Chen tried to contact him at this time, he probably wouldn't be able to reach him.
"Don't worry, I'll find out what that guy Modi has been doing since he left."
"I'll contact him as soon as I confirm he's available," Bo said.
He quickly made several communications, using the connections of those important figures who had once owed him a life.
The information came back quickly, and he explained to Achen, "Modi is currently on the front line, helping the vanguard battalion to wipe out the beast tide."
So far, he has wiped out the beast tides at two vanguard camps and is heading towards the third camp.
In times like these, let's wait patiently. Don't worry, with me here, I'll definitely be able to save your mother's life.
Achen fell silent. As a citizen of the Algae Star, even though he was young, he understood that what his father was doing at that moment was to save more people.
To prevent this matter from becoming known to more people, Bo Yiyan directly used a flying vehicle to take everyone to his private residence at the academy.
Before leaving, Ah Chen transferred some money to the gatekeeper, saying that it was a joke he had played on Dr. Bo and asking him to keep it a secret.
Seeing that the young master was lively and energetic, the servant believed him and said that he would pretend not to know about Dr. Bo's visit.
Young Master Chen is usually very kind to his servants. Besides, he will most likely become the heir of the Lan Dun family in the future. Of course, the servants would not report such a small matter to the head of the family and offend Young Master Chen.
After taking care of these matters, everyone began a long wait at Bo Yiyan's residence.
On the evening of the fifth day, Zuo Shan's wristwatch finally rang, but the bio-wristwatch could only be unlocked by the user; others could only watch helplessly.
Bo Yiyan dialed Modi's number, but it was always busy. Achen also dialed it several times, but it was still busy.
Finally, Bo Yiyan managed to get through to his number during a break in his replay.
When Modi saw the incoming call, he answered it immediately, assuming it was Zuo Shan calling back.
"Hello?" Bo had barely opened his mouth when Modi was so angry he almost hung up.
"Spit it out, don't interrupt our important communications," Modi said coldly.
Even through the receiver, Bo Yiyan could feel his coldness.
"You think I want to call you? If you want to save Zuo Shan, get back to my residence at the academy as fast as you can!" Bo said irritably.
"What? Your residence? My lady, why are you in your residence?" Morti was almost furious.
"Is it wrong for me to have an affair with her? Anyway, come or don't come if you want!" Bo hung up the call immediately.
Modi felt a wave of dizziness. He had barely slept in the past five days, only managing to get a short nap on the way from one vanguard battalion to another.
Moreover, every time I fall asleep, I dream of his fan lying on the bed, looking like it's about to die, which scares me awake.
He was so angry at Bo Yiyan that he almost lost his temper.
But he quickly calmed down when he thought of Zuo Shan.
The fact that Zuo Shan was with Bo Yiyan meant that she must have been very ill, which is why Achen found him and sent his mother to him.
He took two deep breaths, then instructed Mina to retrieve the high-speed warship: "Use your superpower to propel the warship and get to the academy as quickly as possible!"
"Mat, use your mental net to locate your position in advance. Make sure you take a straight line, don't take any detours or waste even a little bit of time, or you two will be punished!"
