Chapter 23: Am I Not Dead?

The man, John, also had the impression that he was also a member of the college students on the winter outing, named Lauren, who was an expert skier, a very strong white woman.

She now sat quietly under the tree, her thin down jacket covered with snow, her hat didn't know where to blow, her blonde hair was shiny, and her whole person seemed to be an ice sculpture. The ski tools she relied on to be proud of were at her feet.

A dozen meters from her is the road, and occasionally a car passes by.

There is no doubt that she also escaped from the sanatorium by luck, and wanted to rely on her own skills and ski to the town for help, but unfortunately, she finally fell in front of the hope of ten meters.

John has the support of [Extreme Cold Body] plus the intermediate [Ice Field Combat] talent, and he also drinks alcohol, eats energy bars, and chews energy tablets to replenish his energy many times, so that he can chase in a blizzard for more than an hour.

Lauren is just an ordinary person, and it is no surprise that she has fallen under the forces of nature.

John was silent for a moment.

He pulled out his phone, which already had a signal.

He called the police and reported the location of Lauren's woods, the location of the bodies of several other victims who had been buried on the ice field, and some details.

Then, he removed the phone card and crushed it.

He took one last look at the ice sculpture under the tree and drove onto the road. He now needs to go to the town, find a hotel, and have a good rest.

……

After a day in the hotel, it wasn't until the evening that John recovered.

He swore that he would never travel in the wind and snow again if it wasn't necessary, it was a terrible feeling, and until now, it seemed that there was still a cold in his bones.

"However, last night's harvest was really good, cold is a little cold, but I got a lot of experience, specialization qualifications and some other special specializations, of course, the most peculiar thing is this ...... I touched from that freak"

Mutated glands (edible) that can undergo unpredictable mutations after consumption.

As the saying goes, if you want to have the ability to protect yourself, then you must take risks.

In addition, my hands have always been very red, and I don't know how many egg knives, orange bows, wind swords, etc., I don't know how many egg knives, orange bows, wind swords, etc., can be expected to be the last thing to touch from the freak's body is definitely not simple.

Think of it again when I think of the freak in the body of four bullets and not falling, and the brain makes up for four shots...... Such a counterintuitive constitution must have a lot to do with this gland.

"Fight! Anyway, I have a system, and the system shows that it is edible, so it must not die, and it is easy to do it if it does not die. ”

John swallowed the glands the size of a snake's gall.

After a while, I didn't feel any difference in my body.

After a while, it was still the same.

"Perhaps, it will take some time for this thing to work."

……

Next.

"Wow, why is it so hot? Was there a fire? ”

John lifted the quilt and flipped it over, feeling like a fire inside his body, and sweat was pouring out of his skin.

System: "Congratulations on obtaining the personal trait [Demon's Embrace]." ”

System: "[Demon's Embrace] (One-Eye Drop) grants you unparalleled recovery ability, increasing your [Stamina] attribute by 300%, greatly increasing your resistance to deadly attacks." ”

"[Devil's Embrace]?! Ha! Hahaha...... That's it! ”

John was ecstatic, the freak's constitution that violated the laws of evolution was because of this thing, and this was a super skill to save his life.

If you get shot in the head, you don't necessarily die, do you say God or not?

"It's just...... Why is something wrong with my body...... It's a little too hot. ”

System: "You gain the negative trait [Mania] (curable) You will faint intermittently, and the slightest mood swing will make you unable to control your sanity. ”

"Oh no......"

John wanted to cry without tears.

Everything has a price, and I only saw the freak's strong physique, but I ignored why he was so tough.

The physique of a freak has undergone a mutation and has adapted to the mutation, and my normal body inherits the characteristics of a freak, and bad things will inevitably happen, because I am too eager for quick success.

However, this negative trait shows that it can be cured, so it proves that there is still hope for elimination.

"I'll go to the town hospital first to check it out and see if it can be cured by conventional means."

John ran shirtless to the bathroom and got a basin of cold water, and then poured it down from his head, and the heat in his body was finally relieved.

He took his bank card, went to the town's Three Oaks Credit Bank and withdrew some cash, and went to the hospital for a check-up.

……

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Wick. Your physiology is all right, and there's nothing wrong with it. If you have any doubts about our diagnosis, we recommend that you go to a hospital in a big city for another medical examination. ”

After all, the town's hospital has limited medical resources, and there is no way to deal with incurable diseases.

Besides, the doctor thinks that Mr. Wick is just too hot, and if he finds a female companion, he should be fine.

"Mr. Wick, I would like to ask, ...... you How long has it been since I had sex (*). ”

According to the doctor's judgment, John was nearly fifty years old, and this situation must have been caused by that reason.

John: "What the hell do you mean?" Yes?! ”

The fire in his body suddenly rushed straight to his brain.

John: "You damn doubt I have a problem?" Fake! Do you want me to prove it to you? Do you want?! ”

Doctor: "Don't fight! Don't hit...... Help me! help! help me! ”

……

Public Security Station.

After paying a fine, John was released.

Old Sheriff: "Hey, old man, at our age, we need to be calm. Look at Bobby, he's fifteen years old, and his personality is still so good. ”

“yeah,good dog。” John touched the head of the police dog, and after beating the doctor to vent, the fire went down a lot, and his sanity had returned.

Old Sheriff: "By the way, I'm very sorry for the accidental fire in your house in the Icefield. ”

"It's fine." John shrugged his shoulders, there are insurance benefits anyway, it doesn't matter, just ask the financial advisor to call the insurance company when the time comes.

John started the car and decided to leave town and go to the big hospital in Los Angeles for another check-up.

In the case of Laomei medical institutions, if there is no way to deal with this negative characteristic, then the conventional methods will be ineffective.

……

Los Angeles.

John also owns a property here, one of four properties purchased by his predecessor.

John pulled out the key and opened the door, and happened to meet the eyes of a white woman.

"Cheever Charlos?" The woman looked incredulous.

The name Cheever Charles is a pseudonym for John Wick, who forged his identity to complete his mission in Los Angeles and found a girlfriend.

This white woman named Eve is his former girlfriend, a girlfriend who is twenty years younger, and the house in Los Angeles has always been provided for Eve to live in for free.
