Lupin looked down at his thigh......

There, the scales are pierced.

A black hole appeared on the skin, and there were even scorched marks on the edges.

However, as soon as Lupin gritted his teeth, the deep muscles slowly squirmed, and in a moment, a yellow and clear warhead fell out of the small hole and landed with a "clanging" sound.

"Herring scales, sure enough, can't stop the gun at all! Fortunately, the thigh muscles were thick enough for the bullet to penetrate the ...... directly" Lupin's heart jumped wildly, and he didn't dare to stop, limping and continuing to run forward, while thinking to himself, "But I can't resist a few shots, especially in the area with a thin muscle layer, and I can't bear it." ”

"But how dare the Blades shoot in broad daylight?!"

Lupin was in disbelief.

Dream Weaving City is extremely strict in the management of firearms. Perhaps because guns are one of the few means that can make the poor who have nothing a slight threat to the upper class, the Weaving Dream City police have always cracked down on illegal gun possession.

Especially this is a busy area! There are quite a few high-end shops, and there are even decent people in the Misty District who occasionally come here to visit.

Shooting here is tantamount to a serious provocation to the order of the city, and although the gangsters have guns, few people dare to use them so unscrupulously in broad daylight......

But the other side still fired.

This also proves from the side that the Blades are determined to hold on to themselves today!

Bang!

Another gunshot rang out, this time hitting Lupin in the shoulder, sending him stumbling forward, sending sharp pain in his shoulder blades.

Lupin's pupils shrank wildly, and he suddenly changed direction and ran to the dock not far away.

Dream City is a port city, with several rivers running through the city, so there are many large and small piers, and the thrift store where Lupin used to buy canned herring was in a dock market.

Three steps and two steps, Lupin ran to the dock, pounced, and jumped directly into the river!

There were already many people on the dock, and when they saw this scene, they all exclaimed.

"Someone jumped into the river!"

"Dare to go into the water, don't you want to die?"

People were pointing at the water, but soon, the Blades gang rushed over and cleared the docks.

The people of the Blood Axe Gang in the distance have obviously not yet assembled, there are only thirty or forty people, but there are hundreds of Blade Gang here, so they are still watching from afar.

The One-Eyed Gang leader soon came to the dock, looking at the turbulent water with a strange expression on his face.

"How long has he been down?" One-eyed asked.

"It's been 3 minutes!" A minion replied, "Boss, this guy can't think about it, the water is poisonous!" And no matter how good the water is, it is impossible to escape from underwater, although there are no 'devil vines' near the docks, but a little farther away they are everywhere, and no flesh and blood life can swim through their ground......"

"He's not going to wander." One-eyed glanced at the Blood Axe Gang in the distance, his face was a little irritated, "He's dragging his time......"

This is the territory of the old enemy......

Although the One-Eyed Gang leader verbally promised Dr. Ge that he would do his best to capture the "test subject", if the Blood Axe Gang was assembled, he would have to leave, and it was impossible for him to really put his own life into it.

————

Lupin plunged into the water.

A normal person holds his breath under the water, at least one or two minutes, or at most four or five minutes, before he will surface for ventilation.

But the moment Lupin entered the water, the skin on both sides of his neck began to squirm, and slowly grew several cracks, symmetrical left and right.

That's the gills!

Lupin unlocked 100% of the herring's genes, and naturally also has the genes for the formation of fish gills, and in addition to creating silver-scaled cattle and horses in the past few days, he has also created several other gadgets along the way.

At present, this recombinant state, which he calls "fish man", is currently mainly engaged in underwater warfare, and its strength is weaker than that of cattle and horses, because muscles are large oxygen consumers, and the proportion of cattle and horse genes has to be reduced in order to prolong the diving time...... But the remaining muscles are more streamlined and have gills!

It's just that these gills are still too small for Lupin's size...... Genetic recombination is also not a panacea, and some traits can be perfectly transplanted from another organism to another, and some cannot.

Lupin can grow enough herring scales to cover his body, but the gills can only form a few finger-length pieces. His ability to supply oxygen in the water only allowed Lupin to stay underwater several times longer than ordinary people, but it could not allow him to be in the water forever like a fish.

Unless one day, he can find a more powerful underwater oxygen exchange organ gene to perfect the "fish-man".

But that's enough.

Lupin's original purpose of diving into the water was to dodge the gun, no matter whether the Blades dared to chase him into the water or not, at least the threat of the gun to him was gone...... And if the other party really dares to go into the water, it is even more in the arms of Lu Ping, ordinary people are far worse than fish people, and weapons such as machetes are also more seriously resisted by water. This is your home turf!

Not to mention, after all, this is the territory of the Bloodaxe Gang, and Lupin doesn't believe that the Blades dare to spend time with him at the docks?

In the water, with nothing to do left and right, Lupin couldn't help but look into the distance.

His eyes, somehow, were covered with a transparent membrane, which was a fisheye structure, which made his underwater vision slightly better.

Lupin vaguely learned from the memories of the original body that the whole world is now polluted by hell, and there are hellish creatures in the water, similar to the devil grass that can be found everywhere on land, and it is a thing called "devil vine".

As far as the eye can see, there are many purple anemone-like plants on the riverbed, swaying leisurely at the bottom of the water.

Lupin didn't dare to come closer, and only stayed near the docks.

Silently estimating the time in his heart, Lupin planned to wait at least 20 minutes before going up quietly, as long as there was no strenuous activity underwater, plus the oxygen of the herring's gills, holding his breath for 20 minutes would not be a problem.

Gradually, however, Lupin felt a hint of coldness.

His body seemed to be a little numb, and this numbness began at the ends of his limbs and spread little by little towards his torso, but on the contrary, it was moisturizing and silent......

By the time Lupin reacted, he was almost completely numb, and he couldn't lift ten percent of his strength!

"What's going on?!" Lupin's heart was pounding.

At this time, only 10 minutes had passed, but Lupin didn't dare to wait any longer, switched to the state of the most powerful cow and horse, paddled with all his might, and slowly floated upward.

With inhuman strength, Lupin barely swam to the shore.

Luckily, the Blades seem to have left, and given their clearance, there doesn't seem to be anyone near the docks.

Roars and sporadic gunfire could be heard in the distance.

Lupin struggled to swim to the shore and clinged to the rafters of the pier with both hands, trying to climb out of the river.

But his body was paralyzed, and he almost didn't listen to the call, and he tried several times without success!

Just then, a voice sounded overhead.

"Need my help?"

Lupin was startled and looked up.

A middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses was looking down at him with a smile.

And behind him...... Several sturdy young men with blood-colored axes tattooed on their bodies were pointing guns at themselves.

——————

An hour later, in a lavish private suite, Lupin was strapped to a thick, sturdy metal bed with a needle in his wrist and a hanging bottle pumping pale pink liquid into his body.

The middle-aged man in glasses looked at him with a smile, as if he was looking at some kind of treasure.

"You're pretty good at holding your breath...... But don't you know that the toxins in Hell in the water are many times higher than those on the shore? ”

"And when there are wounds on the body, it is more likely to be eroded by hell toxins......"

"I am also very impressed that you dared to jump into the water after being shot twice."

Lupin was silent.

In the memory of the original body, there was indeed no such knowledge, so he didn't know.

However, the pink liquid he is injecting, the original body has a relevant memory - it is "divine water", which is said to be made only by the gods, and the effect is to remove the hell toxin from the human body.

Every month, the residents of Dream Weaving City receive a copy of the divine water made by the god "Arakne" and drink it.

Gradually, Lupin could feel it, and the numbness in his body disappeared.

"Who are you?" Lupin felt his body's strength almost regain and asked the question he had been wondering about.

"You can call me 'Dr. Ning'," the middle-aged man with glasses straightened the collar of his suit and leather shoes, "Currently, I am temporarily living in the Blood Axe Gang and doing some research on genetic enhancement potions. ”
