Perhaps, we really have no choice but to take a gamble!
Zhuge Shensuan really wanted to stay here until his talent cooldown ended, then go out and kill the man! But he could guess without even thinking that the man wouldn't wait that long.
He carefully opened the morgue door and looked around. Zhuge Shensuan could keenly sense that a gaze was fixed on him, but he could not see the man in his sight.
He deliberately patted his chest, pretending to be reassured, and then slowly retraced his steps.
If a man wanted to take action, he would have done so already. To be honest, Zhuge Liang didn't think he had any use to him, and the man's decision to let him go was definitely not out of pity.
However, this situation absolutely cannot be allowed to continue like this. If the man doesn't act now, he might act at any time. Zhuge Shensuan cannot entrust his life and death to someone else.
He stopped and stood still.
He didn't know if this method would work, but it was indeed the only method he could think of. If he tried to escape, given a man's physical abilities, he would definitely be caught in a very short time.
"Come out. I know you've been following me. You're only doing this for that reason, but I won't let you have your way."
There was still no movement around.
"You think I'm bluffing you? You've been following me since the moment I left the morgue, sir with the stun gun."
"You're quite perceptive, aren't you? No wonder you're from over there." The man clapped his hands and chuckled as he emerged from the darkness. "But you're certainly not very clever. Do you think you can survive after exposing my existence so clearly?"
Was it because the man mistakenly thought Zhuge Shen was "on the other side" that he didn't kill him directly? It seems that the two organizations may be hostile, but they also have mutual benefits!
"Do you think I can survive if I don't expose your existence?"
"It's no fun just saying it directly, so I'll get straight to the point." The man pulled out a stun gun from behind his back, his eyes turning menacing. "Take me to Dr. Yang, and I can allow you to join the organization. This is your only chance to survive and become one of our colleagues!"
“If I can betray Dr. Yang today, why can’t I betray you tomorrow?” Zhuge Shensuan blurted out. “The reason I’m here is, of course, because I believe in Dr. Yang’s ideals. We are not on the same path.”
"What's so great about that old man's philosophy that you believe in? Everyone we've captured says the same thing. Does that old man's word really have some kind of magic?"
The man raised his voice: "He simply doesn't understand. What he's doing is only hindering human progress! It's taken us thousands of years to evolve from ancient civilizations to where we are today, and now we have an opportunity to potentially evolve into a completely new species within ten years. If you're not going to help, fine, but why are you trying to obstruct us?!"
Based on the information from the conversation, Zhuge Shensuan's mind raced: "You only talk about evolution, but don't mention the cost at all. I have to say you're very suitable for the pyramid scheme business."
“Sacrifice is necessary.” The man smiled dismissively. “Leaps in civilization are always accompanied by sacrifices, but history books often only record the glamorous side.”
"So what? Who do you think you are? A pioneer carrying the burden of darkness?"
"A very melodramatic description, but I like it." The man raised the stun gun. "Alright, enough chit-chat. Whether you live or die is your choice."
“Since that’s the case,” Zhuge the Divine Calculator shrugged, “of course I choose to live.”
"A wise person knows when to yield, and I like that, so take me with you..."
"But I have no intention of taking you to see any Dr. Yang!"
Zhuge Shensuan quickly retreated, shouting at the top of his lungs, "Little girl! I've found your mother!"
"What are you yelling about?" The man was clearly angry. "How dare you play me! Fine, fine, since you won't cooperate, then die!"
A hand rested on the man's shoulder.
"who?!"
The man turned around instantly and saw a little girl hanging behind him. Alarm bells rang in his mind, and he swung his stun baton at her!
The little girl caught the stun gun with one hand and crushed it into powder!
"Damn it, what the hell is this?!"
The man panicked at this moment. The ghostly thing in front of him was clearly not comparable to the group of corpses in the morgue. Their fighting power was not even on the same level!
"I saw this guy arrest your mother!" Zhuge Shensuan shouted, pointing at the man. "You quickly ask him where your mother is!"
"I didn't! Don't you fucking talk nonsense!"
The man couldn't help but swear. He never expected that the situation, which seemed so certain, would change so suddenly. What puzzled him even more was the origin of this damn thing.
"The boss said there's been some kind of minor anomaly here, this is what they call 'minor', I can't believe it!"
"I want... Mommy!"
The little girl broke free of the rope around her neck and pounced on the man, knocking him to the ground!
"ah!"
As flesh was torn apart, the little girl ripped off the man's entire right arm!
"Tell me quickly! Where is my mother?!"
"I...don't know!"
In just a few seconds, the man's body was covered in blood, and he slowly stopped struggling, losing his last breath.
The little girl didn't stop what she was doing and continued to vent her anger on the man's corpse. Zhuge Shensuan didn't leave but slowly approached her.
He is dead.
"Dead...?" The little girl stopped what she was doing and looked blankly at Zhuge Shensuan. "Then...where is my mother?"
"Although we haven't found out yet, we still have a chance to keep looking, don't we?"
"Yes...oh." The little girl grinned, "Then you must help me find my mom, brother."
In the blink of an eye, the little girl disappeared again.
Zhuge Shensuan leaned against the wall, looking at his hands in disbelief. He had actually survived?!
He had no confidence that the little girl would respond to his call, nor did he know what level the man's physical enhancement was. It could be said that this plan was made on the spot when all the preconditions were unclear!
"Ancestor, are you protecting me?"
But this was only one hurdle to overcome; the real world of ghost stories was still a long way off.
"Yes, it seems this guy took something from the morgue!"
Zhuge Shensuan searched through the man's corpse and soon found a key stained with blood!
