Chapter 37: The Good Man and the Beast
Levi doesn't say much to Stan at the scene of the killing.
After confirming that Stan has come to his senses, Levi takes the devastated Stan back to Arkham Asylum.
At this time, Dr. Hugo had just finished cleaning up the mess in the laboratory.
As soon as he looked up, he saw Levi coming down the elevator with Stan, and he subconsciously closed the door of the laboratory behind him, for fear that Stan would go in again and wreak havoc.
Of course, the dejected Stan apparently doesn't notice Dr. Hugo's movements.
Levi noticed, but he just smiled and didn't say anything more.
"Dr. Hugo, come over too, I think we need to help our new members accept the truth......" Levi turned back to Dr. Hugo.
β¦β¦
In the laboratory where werewolf experiments are conducted.
The lab table has already been propped up by Dr. Hugo, and Stan is placed on one side of the bench, while Levi and Dr. Hugo sit across from him.
"Mr. Kada Ember ......" Stan's nervous voice shuddered.
But Levi interrupted him with a wave of his hand.
"Stan, you should call me Dean Levi now."
Previously, Stan didn't belong to Arkham Asylum and naturally didn't care what he was called, but now that he was in Arkham Asylum, he could no longer call himself Kada Ash.
"Dean Levi," Stant paused, "can I know what happened to me?" I...... How did it come to be. β
His last memory is still the image of himself jumping off the roof of the hotel.
As for what happened next, he was completely unclear, and when he regained consciousness again, he found himself standing in an alley, covered with stump fragments, his hands stained with blood, and his mouth filled with the strong smell of blood.
It is clear that these corpses are caused by him!
And not only that, but Stan can clearly feel that his body has changed drastically compared to the past, no longer thin, and full of strength!
All this filled his heart with a sense of confusion and bewilderment.
"Stan, you jumped off the roof of the hotel and died......"
Levi didn't have anything to shy away from, and told him what happened to Stan from beginning to end.
Starting with the release of the viper's venom gas, then later drinking a large amount of viper potion, and eventually, Stan dies and the body is taken back to Arkham Asylum, and then gets out of control after resurrection......
It was also the first time Dr. Hugo really learned about Stan's life.
A tragedy, downright tragedy, is also the most commonplace tragedy in Gotham.
As an old Gotham, Dr. Hugo's tragedy has long been unable to touch his heart.
What really makes Dr. Hugo ponder is that Stan's previous life is the same as the werewolf Warwick that Singid remembers.
The same tragedy, the same alchemical experiments that led to the deadly beast hidden under the faΓ§ade of the good guys......
Amazing similarity!
Is this a coincidence?
Dr. Hugo turned his gaze to Levi, who immediately dismissed the idea.
Coincidental? Will there be a coincidence on this guy's hands? Eighty percent was deliberately guided by him!
But Dr. Hugo, though skeptical, did not say it unwittingly.
Anyway, it's okay with him, and besides, it's not necessarily a bad thing for Stan.
β¦β¦
Stan, on the other hand, doesn't have the complexity of Dr. Hugo's mind.
To him, Levi was a good man.
He helped realize his plan for free from the beginning, and now resurrects himself after his own death.
Although the resurrected self will become like a beast due to the body's thirst for blood, it is not Dean Levi's fault.
After all, it's scientific common knowledge that people can't be resurrected after death, and as a Ph.D., Stan is a strong believer in this.
Now that he has been resurrected for the first time, what more could he ask for?
"Stan, that's all there is to it." Levi said frankly, "What are you going to do next?" β
"Intended?" Stan smiled wryly, "What can I do?" Now out there, I'm a dead man, and ......"
Stan looks down at his hands, having killed so many people in his first killing, making his hands still tremble with nervousness.
"Where else can I go like this? What else can you do but stay in your madhouse......"
Star's tone was filled with bitterness.
Levi spread his hand, stood up, and said with a smile.
"Stan, you're right to stay in Arkham Asylum, but you're wrong to say you can't do anything!
Now, Stan Topolsky, I officially invite you to join Arkham Asylum and join the glorious evolution! β
Levi said, his form beginning to change and distort, and he was once again transformed into Kada Ember in front of Stan.
And that's not all, at Levi's suggestion, Dr. Hugo also changed his body in front of Stan and became Sinjid's appearance!
Dressed in tattered cloth clothes, a huge shield nearly human high, a huge green alchemy pot emerged from behind it.
Star's mouth wide open, stunned at the scene in front of him.
Although this was the second time he had seen Levi transform into Kada Ash, he was always amazed to see this unscientific scene.
Not to mention, this time there's a new character - the alchemist Sinjid!
"Would you like a drink?" Dr. Hugo reached out and picked up the cup and took the green potion from his alchemy jar.
"Thank you." Stan subconsciously thanked and took the alchemical potion from Dr. Hugo's hand, and was about to put it to his mouth when he came to his senses, "Uh, this thing...... Can I drink it? β
Hugo shrugged, "Of course, you can." β
Skeptical, Stan tries to take a small sip, and it tastes surprisingly good!
Now that Stan's body is long gone, all of his body fluids are alchemical potions, and even his heart has been replaced with a medicine pump heart, and drinking Sinjid's alchemical potion is like a normal person replenishing water.
Stan drank the alchemical potion from the cup before putting it down and looking at Levi.
"Dean Levi, what you just said about joining...... What does glorious evolution mean? Stan asked, uncertain, but at the same time there was some anticipation burning in his heart.
"Just like us!" Levi opened his hands, "I will give you more power to become a deadly hunter in the night, the law cannot change Gotham, I said I would let you end the evil with your own hands." β
Although Levi's words are very passionate, they are also very inflammatory.
However, Stan is silent for the first time.
He knew very well what he had done, and he also knew very well what he would do if he continued to live.
Maybe if you die, you can live a lot of people.
But Levi's next words soon made Stan no longer have to worry about it.
"The good guy was a lie, the disaster has exposed the lie and revealed the naked truth, and although the Viper Elixir project of Wezan Pharmaceutical has been halted, there is still too much evil in the city, and the nature of the city will not change because of this......"
"Good! I agree! Stan finally made up his mind!
It was Wezan Pharmaceuticals that killed him, it was the evil of the city that killed him!
They killed Stan Topolsky, but left the beast behind!
His name is Stan, and he's a sinner.
However, there are so many sinners in the world waiting to be hunted by him......
