Chapter 5: Mentors
"The date is over?" When Zilin walked in, Lance threw a malicious smile at him.
Zilin didn't care, he put his hands in his pockets, walked with a relaxed expression, and replied casually: "It's all said that it's business." ”
"Oh? So, you're not interested in Miss Yi? Lance continued, "Then you shouldn't have a problem with me making a move on her, right?" ”
"Huh...... No comment. Zilin knew that Lance was testing himself, and replied calmly, "If you succeed, remember to say hello to me, and then I will help you arrange a 'three-person date' with her and Miss Carmen. ”
Lance still had a smile on his face when he heard this, but the smile was a little stiff, and he didn't answer again.
Zilin also greeted him with a smile, and his eyes showed a little success.
The two looked at each other for a few seconds, then changed their expressions at the same time and raised their middle fingers at each other.
After the erection, as if they had reached some kind of tacit understanding, they stopped playing with each other and looked straight ahead.
At the moment, they are in an "observation room", one of which has one-way glass; On the other side of the glass, there is also a person holding a person.
It wasn't anyone else, it was - Hunter.
"How is he doing these days?" After a moment of silence, Zilin spoke again.
"Scans have shown that all indicators of his body have stabilized, and the last 'runaway episode' was four days ago, and the condition was not very serious...... At least it's not compared to when he first came, when a small amount of suppressing gas was used for him, and it was quickly suppressed. After Lance replied, he paused, and immediately said, "What? This is going to be experimented on him, right? In my opinion...... Throw a fierce captive in first, let him swallow it and see if there is a reaction. ”
"What do you think? Both deputy wardens were useful. Zilin immediately rejected Lance's mad suggestion.
"Huh?" Lance's evil joke began again, "If you want to 'use' the woman, you can also 'use' the man?" ”
"Do you have to turn into that joke every three words?" Zilin said, "I think you need to learn hardcore feminist ...... from Lilia."
"Forget it, I can't control her type......" Lance said, putting his elbow on Zilin's shoulder and smiling with a sneering face, "Besides, how can I win people's love?" ”
"You're not done yet, are you?" Zilin tilted his head and gave Lance a disgusted look.
"What? I've been here for you as a 'guinea pig administrator' for half a month, what's wrong with teasing you? Lance was still upset, and raised his voice.
"Didn't I bring you a mission?" As he spoke, he took out an I-PEN from his trouser pocket and held it up to Lance.
"Hmph......" Lance snorted coldly, snatched the I-PEN from Zilin's hand, turned around and walked out, "You'll take over the 'guinea pig'." ”
So saying, he went out; Looks...... He didn't want to be here for a second.
After Lance left, Zilin silently observed the hunter for a while, and then, a few steps forward, leaned over to the microphone on the table slightly, and pressed a button on the console.
"Mr. Levine." A second later, his voice was heard in the room across the one-way glass.
At this time, the hunter was wandering and pacing around the house; This move is not because of how anxious he is emotionally, but because his body is overfunctioning, and it is uncomfortable to lie down, and it will be easier to exercise.
"Who are you?" After coming here and regaining consciousness, Hunter had not heard anyone other than Lance, so he asked.
"Zilin." Zilin replied.
Although the two of them had communicated with each other in the "Book of the Heart", they were all transmitting information in the form of words, so Lieba was still unfamiliar with Zilin's voice.
"Oh......" Hunter nodded, "Are you the one who caused Lao Tzu to be like this?" ”
"Heh......" Zilin laughed, laughing with a little disdain, "Mr. Levine, why do you say this?" ”
"If it weren't for you inciting me to devour human DNA, how would I have become such a half-human and non-ghost?" Hunter asked coldly.
"First of all, if I hadn't instigated you to devour human DNA, you would have hung up on the ...... when the prison break happened," Zilin replied calmly, "You would either die from the mouth of that monster developed by EF, or you would have died at the hands of Aki Shoichi...... It is precisely because of the mutant ability in your body after swallowing the first human that you have survived until now. He paused, observed the change in the expression on the other party's face, and then said, "Secondly, aren't you doing well now?" Where are the half-humans not ghosts? After the initial 'rampage', the genetic sequence eventually stabilizes and becomes a controllable force, and the actual result is ...... You've gotten stronger, haven't you? ”
"Hmph...... Do you think I'm going to fall for you? Hunter sneered, "What 'controllable power', even if I urge the ability I have mastered a long time ago and obtained from animals, I will also have the risk of losing my mind, where is this ability stable?" ”
"That's because your 'foundation' is too poor to be controlled." Zilin replied methodically, "Don't forget, your abilities are not innate, but rather an adjunct created after a failed 'molecular teleportation experiment'...... Compared to those who have innate abilities that have slowly cultivated and upgraded from the paper level, you are of course flawed. If you want to be parable...... This thing is like being a cook, everyone else is from washing, side dishes, and cutting vegetables step by step, but you are directly on the stove, and of course the fried things will be mushy. ”
Listening to Zilin's explanation, the hostility of the hunter gradually became less intense, although he was still a little worried that he was being fooled, but because he couldn't find the flaw in his words...... There was no reason for him to reject it entirely.
"In addition, don't forget, the person who controlled you in the violent state, brought you out of the Nine Prisons, and treated you is also us." Zilin's demonic whisper continued, "If I'm simply trying to use you, then what reason do I have to keep you alive after my people escape from the 'forbidden zone'?" ”
"Look...... I have to thank you, huh? Hunter couldn't refute the other party logically, but he was still a little unhappy in his heart, so he replied viciously with his eyes in his eyes.
"You're welcome, just thank the organization, it's not my personal credit." Unexpectedly, Zilin accepted it all with a smile, "We just saved your life, gave you freedom, and strengthened your abilities." ”
"Cut ......" Hunter pouted, basically being fooled, "Then what do you mean by locking me up now?" ”
"We'll have to wait until your body is basically stable before we can release you." Zilin had been waiting for the other party to ask this question for a long time, and the answer was blurted out.
"And when can I get out?" Hunter asked again.
"That's a good question." Zilin said, "I'm here today to inform you, you can go out immediately." ”
"Oh?" Hunter is not a fool, when it comes to this, he still smells some of Zilin's intentions, "Let me guess...... You let me out because you want me to die for you, right? ”
"No, I don't need that yet." Zilin said, "But I do have some arrangements for you. ”
"Hmph......" Hunter snorted again, "Then what do you want me to do?" ”
"Learn." Zilin's tone when he said these two words, for some reason, always felt a little sarcastic.
"Are you looking down on me, kid?" After hearing this, the hunter immediately replied with an unhappy face.
Before becoming a "hunter", Levine's position in that molecular laboratory was...... Janitor; And the biggest reason why he was recruited is that his education level is surprisingly low, basically, just literate...... Not to mention physics, he doesn't know anything about science above middle school, and even if you put experimental data and various drawings in front of him, it is impossible for him to understand or leak secrets.
Zilin naturally knew about this matter, and it was clearly recorded in the archives of the Federation; Some of the people who captured the hunters had used this to mock him.
"Don't get me wrong." Zilin replied with a smile, "I'm not asking you to learn cultural knowledge, but letting you learn how to control your abilities; I'm sure you have no reason to say no, after all...... It's directly related to your health and life safety. ”
"Learn how to control?" Hunter repeated this and wondered, "Who to learn from?" With you? ”
"Me? Scold...... No, no, no. Zilin in the observation room shook his head again and again, although the other party couldn't see him shaking his head at all, "I'm a very bad teacher, and my patience is very poor when it comes to teaching people, so I stopped teaching male students a long time ago......"
Hunter always felt that his words were a bit subtle, but it didn't seem to be related to him, so he didn't interject.
“…… The teacher I arranged for you is much stronger than me, and he is currently the strongest mutant in the whole universe, so the opportunity is rare. And the second half of Zilin's sentence also successfully aroused the interest of the hunter.
"Huh? The strongest mutant? Hunter also knew some federal information, and he thought that what Zilin said was, "Could it be the 'Guard Officer' Nakanwo?" ”
"Nakanwo...... Heh, stop laughing. When Zilin said this name that frightened countless people, he seemed to be talking about an insignificant little role, "That kind of guy, how can it be compared to 'Shi Sanwen Teacher'." ”
…………
At the same time, Cairo, in an apartment.
A man who looked to be in his mid-thirties, with sloppy hairstyles and pajamas, was woken up by a ringtone on his mobile phone.
He opened his eyes and saw the familiar ceiling, and then reached for his phone as he followed the sound to see if he had slept on the floor again.
In the process, he touched a lot of strange things...... Used paper towels, empty cans, greasy stains that have solidified on the stalls, leftover food, and gamepads with missing keys, etc.
Finally, after getting a dirty hand, he grabbed the phone with his already dirty hand and put it to his ear in a daze: "Who?" ”
"It's me." A man's voice came from the other side.
The moment he heard this voice, Shi Sanwen immediately sobered up a little, and then ...... He pressed the "hang up" button.
When the "damn ......" communication was terminated, Shi Sanwen still put on a loveless face and cursed a swear word.
But a few seconds later, the phone rang again.
"No!" He was obviously the only one in the room, but Shi Sanwen shouted as if he was arguing with someone for some reason, "If you don't take it, you won't answer it!" Get lost! ”
He yelled at the air as he walked to the bathroom.
Then, amid the almost non-stop ringing of his mobile phone, he pretended to be calm and finished washing.
When I came out of the bathroom, sure enough...... The phone is still ringing.
"Alas......" Shi Sanwen sighed, after all, he picked up the phone again, pressed the answer button, "Say-"
He was very angry and exuded a kind of helplessness.
"It's been a long time since I've been in touch, how are you doing?" Tianyi on the other end of the phone was in a good mood and greeted him happily.
"Don't you know how I'm doing?" Shi Sanwen raised his voice and replied, "I don't know, don't you know if you go through your broken book?" After saying these two sentences, he changed his words and said in an impatient tone, "Less close, hurry up and say what you are going to do." ”
"I've found you an apprentice." Tianyi also stopped beating around the bush and explained the requirements.
"Is it a beauty?" Shi Sanwen is also straightforward, not false.
"I'm sorry, the beauties have been taken in, and the only ones I can give you are men." Tianyi on the other end of the phone was smiling happily at this time.
"I've destroyed the earth!" Shi Sanwen's unhappiness was also beyond words, and he directly gave a half-joking and half-serious threat.
"Hey~ Why are you bothered, with your Excellency's appearance, just clean it up, go and soak it, you can take away at least ten or eight beauties or something." Tianyi continued, "You yourself want to be a dead house in the house all day, who is to blame?" ”
"You're a dead house in a bookstore all day long and qualified to talk about me?" Shi San asked unconvinced.
"Okay, then I won't talk about it, I'll send you the picture of that person first." Tianyi hadn't finished speaking, and a beautiful photo taken when Hunter was in prison had already bounced on Shi Sanwen's mobile phone screen.
"Hmph, what's so good about the rough man's photo." Although Shi Sanwen muttered like this, he still glanced at the screen and asked again, "What is the requirement this time?" ”
"This is already a madman, but because he is not an innate ability, I need you to teach him how to control the power that is easy to go berserk." Tianyi, "Time...... Now is the time to employ people, can you get it done in four months? ”
"As long as you can guarantee that I won't be harassed by you or others for at least eight months after he leaves school." Shi San asked.
"Huh...... I can't guarantee that. Tianyi replied in a chatter-like tone, "You go online every day, you must have seen the news, the situation has been a bit chaotic recently." ”
"Nonsense! Why is the current situation chaotic, don't you have a little pressure in your heart? Shi San asked.
"Okay, then I'll do my best." Tianyi finally gave a promise, but it sounded like a perfunctory.
"Cut ......" Shi Sanwen didn't bother to listen anymore, and finally left a sentence, "If it's really annoying, I'll destroy the galaxy!" He hung up the phone again.
