Chapter 183: Revenge, Treatment
“Yes, our Dragon Country needs this technology, so I want you to help me bring it back and hand it to the country,” Li Guofu said to Zhou Chen.
He then used his mutated left hand to point at the sealed letter. “There’s also this envelope. Inside is my work report and words to my family. Please help me deliver them as well.”
“As for the reward, I have a few things here. Take a look.”
Li Guofu placed the engine and letter on the ground and showed Zhou Chen a few items.
[Random Teleportation Talisman
Type: Mid bronze talisman
After using it, you will immediately teleport to a random location within a 300-kilometer radius.]
[Magic revolver
Type: High bronze weapon
This revolver’s effective range is 200 meters. It can pierce through a ten-centimeter thick steel plate. It doesn’t need to be equipped with ammunition, but it will consume the user’s magic power or spiritual power when fired.]
[Bewitching Perfume
Type: High Bronze potion
This perfume can enchant people who smell it for up to a day. In this state, they will accept and follow your instructions, and when they wake up, they will ignore this memory.
However, its influence on people with higher Spirit is lower, and the duration of the enchantment will be shorter. It might even have no effect.]
Zhou Chen glanced at the three items displayed by Li Guofu and found that they were not low in value, but they were not particularly precious. He did not immediately accept them and said to him,
“Don’t be so pessimistic. Things shouldn’t have reached that point.”
After saying that, he pointed at the old man who was standing beside the jeep and stroking his hair. “I brought that old man here to treat you. He’s a mutant with a healing ability. He should be of help to you.”
“Huh?” Li Guofu’s bloodshot eyes immediately widened. He immediately turned to look at the old man in the distance.
“Put the items away for now. Let’s hear what he has to say.” Zhou Chen saw his reaction and knew that he still had the desire to live.
“Sure. Anyway, I still have some time left.” Li Guofu smiled. He put away the things he had taken out of his inventory and walked towards the old man with Zhou Chen.
Two minutes later.
“Li, I can heal your friend, but healing him will consume a lot of my energy, so I have a request.” The old man, who had been living well recently, nodded at Zhou Chen after checking the situation of Li Guofu.
“What request?”
Zhou Chen had not held much hope that this old man could cure Li Guofu. He felt that it would be good enough if he could alleviate Li Guofu’s condition. Therefore, when he heard that he could cure Li Guofu, he was a little surprised and was interested to hear the other party’s request.
The old man looked at Zhou Chen and said with a serious expression, “I want you to help me kill a guy named Thompson from Nete Tech.”
“Thompson? Who is he?” Zhou Chen asked.
“He’s a director of the No. 4 Research Institute of Nete Tech. He’s the one who killed my girlfriend.” The old man slowly explained, and flames of hatred seemed to rise in his eyes.
“He killed your girlfriend?” Zhou Chen immediately felt that something was wrong. This guy in front of him was at least 60 years old. How did he have a girlfriend? Granddaughter would be more like it.
“Yes.”
The old man ignored the strange gazes from Zhou Chen, Li Guofu, and Lucy. “Don’t look at my aged appearance. I’m actually not much older than you. I became like this because of special reasons.”
‘This is possible?’ Zhou Chen was mystified. He felt that this old man had many secrets.
“Sir, as long as you can cure me, I will help you complete your revenge.” Li Guofu, who was standing to the side, heard their conversation. Therefore, before Zhou Chen said anything, he gave his promise. After all, this concerned his own life.
“Can you shatter that rock over there with a punch?” The old man looked at Li Guofu cautiously and asked.
“???”
Li Guofu was puzzled. He looked at the direction the old man was pointing at and saw a large rock more than a hundred meters away.
“Are you doubting my strength? It’s just a rock. I’ll smash it right away.”
Breaking a stone was a piece of cake for the high bronze-ranked Li Guofu. He was about to walk to the rock and show the old man his strength.
“I meant from here.” However, the old man’s next words made him stop in his tracks.
“It’s not that I don’t believe you, but you’re clearly not a powerful mutant. You don’t have the ability to complete my revenge.” The old man shook his head when he saw Li Guofu’s reaction.
“Old man, don’t underestimate him. His strength is not inferior to mine.” Seeing that the situation was developing strangely, Zhou Chen immediately said to the old man. “I agree to your revenge. When can you treat him?”
“As soon as I see Thompson’s corpse, I will heal him immediately,” the old man looked at Zhou Chen and replied calmly.
“Alright.” Zhou Chen nodded, but then he changed the topic. “But I can’t believe you can treat him just because you say so. How about you relieve his abnormality first?”
Zhou Chen’s request was very reasonable. Although the old man had displayed a suspected healing ability a month ago, Li Guofu’s symptoms were not ordinary injuries. He could not easily believe that the old man could treat him.
“Sure.” The old man was not surprised by Zhou Chen’s request. He looked at Li Guofu, “Show me your left arm.”
Li Guofu knew that the old man was about to showcase his healing ability. He immediately took off his long coat and revealed his ferocious mutated left arm.
Zhou Chen and the others saw that Li Guofu’s entire left arm had taken the disgusting appearance of the arm of a humanoid monster. Moreover, there were similar changes to his left shoulder and near his left chest. It looked rather terrifying, like he had turned into a half monster.
The old man was not afraid when he saw Li Guofu’s appearance. He directly reached out and pressed on Li Guofu’s left arm. Then, he frowned slightly. The deformation on Li Guofu’s body began to retract from his left shoulder. In two seconds, his left shoulder and left chest returned to normal state, returning to normal skin and muscle. Only his left hand was still in the deformed state.
“Ahem… see that?” After completing this treatment, the old man was panting slightly, and his hair seemed to have turned white.
He looked at Zhou Chen and said, “I have the ability to fully heal him. As long as you help me take revenge, I will heal him..”
