My Dad Is the Galaxy’s Prince Charming-Chapter 111 - The Sick Must Be Treated
The four earthlings were taken away by two guards. The entire time, the guards remained silent without even a single glance being exchanged. The silence and lack of interaction seemed odd, provoking a suspicion within Yao Si.
The guards brought the four earthlings to a room that was slightly bigger than the one they were in before. It was filled with various equipment, and there were more passing guards as well as several people dressed in white.
Yao Si’s heart sank. She felt as though she had returned to the research base. Before her, there was the same unidentifiable equipment and the similar researchers dressed in white.
“You’re finally back.” The minute the earthlings entered, one of the men dressed in white who seemed to be the leader came forward to welcome them. “What’s wrong?” The man took a closer look at the four earthlings, but instead of addressing them directly, he turned to the guards.
The guards shook their heads.
“Another failure?” The man’s face darkened, his lips quivering with unsaid words.
“Didn’t I tell you, you will never succeed.” A mocking sneer came from behind, and a familiar figure dressed entirely in black walked forward.
“Yuan Han!”, “That b*tch!” Yao Si and Bai Yi exclaimed in unison. F*ck, he really is here!
“So this is where he has been hiding!” Bai Yi fumed, preparing to rush over, but Yao Si reached out her hand to stop him.
“Wait a minute! Let’s watch.”
The man in white and Yuan Huan were obviously acquainted. He had have done something for the researcher to be kept save and free to roam around with the entire Galaxy seeking him as a wanted criminal. Who exactly was that man then?
“Impossible.” The man in white switched on his optical computer to inspect the figures. As he looked at them, he said almost maniacally, “I clearly duplicated your DNA, so how can they be unresponsive?”
“You’re comparing me to these puppets?” Yuan Han seethed, glaring at him. “I told you I’m the last earthling. None of these puppets will react regardless of how many you try to clone them.”
Earthling!
Yao Si’s eyes went wide. Yuan Han was an earthling! She turned toward the two people at her side, and they too wore faces of shock.
How could Yuan Huan exist? Weren’t all earthlings extinct? Besides, based on the Galaxy’s data, he belonged to another race?
“The data may have been changed,” Mu Xuan explained. Regarding Yuan Huan’s earthling identity, he had his reservations. After all, he had experienced the doomsday period and was most acquainted with the situation.
Yao Si was in a daze from the news while the two before them started a debate.
“This cannot be, the data is identical, so the genes are the same. Why can’t they be awakened?” The man in white flipped through the documents in a frenzy, then shifted to face Yuan Han. “No, I want to try again.”
Yuan Han grew increasingly more infuriated. “Get this straight, we already made things clear back then. You will provide me with a safe place while I provide you with my genes to allow you to create clones. Now that the clones are here, why should I do it all over again?”
“I must have missed something. It will definitely be a success this time.” the man in white insisted anxiously.
“You clearly know that there is something wrong with the cloning techniques.” Yuan Han scoffed. “Cloning earthlings only creates shells without a mind of their own. They only awaken after conversion. Regardless of how many times you attempt it, the result will always stay the same.”
“It won’t, they will definitely awaken. You just have to let me try once more. Weren’t you awakened as well?”
“I’m not your clone!” Yuan Han bellowed, his eyes filling with fury from the insult. “Don’t lower me to their level! I will never offer up my genes again, give it up.”
Was this why he was here? Yao Si knew that earthlings cloned by bloodlings were just empty bodies, since it was common knowledge. It was only after conversion that the bodies started to possess some consciousness.
The man in white hid just to give the clones consciousness? But why did he have to do it in secrecy? Wasn’t it a good thing? If the clones gained consciousness, they would be earthlings.
But where did Yuan Han get the virus?
“You…” The man in white seemed to have something to say, but then he stopped, clenching his teeth in anger. After a moment, he smiled coldly. “Don’t forget that you have nowhere else to hide.”
“You’re threatening me?” Yuan Han glared at him, fury simmering within him.
“You should understand the reason why the organization decided to save you,” he said. “If you aren’t cooperative…”
Organization! A chill ran down Yao Si’s spine. Did Euphoria really control this place?
Even though the sentence hadn’t been completed, its meaning was clear. Yuan Han burst out like an infuriated lion, grabbing the person in front of him. “You think you could stop me if I wanted to leave this place?”
He waved his hand, and the next moment, a familiar machine appeared behind him. It was clearly in better shape than before when its arm had broken off. Besides, it was different now, the originally black body was tainted by a faint red glow.
This machine… had been upgraded again?
It hadn’t even been that long!
“You-your machine!” The man in white jumped back in fear, pushing the other aside. When he took a look at the machine, he seemed to realize something. “Your machine has grown! This… This is impossible!”
“What’s impossible?” Yuan Han smirked. “My lightning is a growing machine, every battle allows it to grow in strength.”
“Heh, do you really think your machine can take you out? We are bloodlings after all!”
“You can try!” The moment Yuan Han said this, the machine behind him waved its arm, and the red scythe appeared. The machine then directed the scythe in front of itself, radiating a threatening aura.
The man in white stilled for a moment, then his eyes widened as he glanced between Yuan Han and the machine in disbelief. “You-you didn’t even do anything, so how did it move. It…”
“You’re right! It has a mind of its own.” His laughter became arrogant, mocking the other man. “Your clones are a bunch of puppets while I and my machine have a mind of our own.”
“A machine with a mind of its own…” The man in white suddenly became excited, his eyes gleaming at the machine before him. “That’s great, that’s great! You must stay, and the machine must stay too!”
“That depends on your ability!” The machine directed a light at Yuan Han, transporting him inside its cockpit.
The man in white immediately sounded the alarm, and numerous blooding guards came rushing in.
Was this… an internal betrayal?
Yao Si was still debating on whether to stop these people when Yuan Han suddenly pointed his scythe at the sky. A loud clap of thunder erupted, exploding a gigantic hole. He flew upwards.
“Stop him!” the man in white shouted.
Around ten guards ran over at him while channeling their abilities. The scene turned into chaos, with various abilities flying at the machine in midair.
“Mu Xuan!” Yao Si turned to the person beside her, wondering if they should help. What if Yuan Han escaped? His confidence had to be backed by his knowledge about his machine.
“Let’s wait a little more!” My Xuan replied, his tone much deeper than before, akin to a calm before a storm. Yao Si’s heart sank.
“What happened? Why did you sound the alarm!” a familiar voice asked, and a new person appeared on the scene.
“Fourth Elder!” Bai Yi exclaimed.
The familiar voice indeed belonged to Fourth Elder!
Why was he here?
A shiver ran Yao Si’s back as she connected the dots. Heavenly Bestowed Yard was under Fourth Elder’s care, but she had originally assumed that he was not aware of Yuan Han’s presence… Yet it showed up that he was even part of it!
“Ji Yang, we can’t allow anything here to be exposed, so why did you sound the alarm?” Fourth Elder headed straight for the man in white.
So… he was the reason Elder Council couldn’t find anything?
But… Why? Wasn’t he an Elder?
Yao Si didn’t listen to their conversation in detail since her mind was a mess. Not long later, more people went after Yuan Han.
The skies were filled with an array of abilities, but due to certain considerations, their attacks were restrained. Unlike them, Yuan Han went all out. His machine was indeed impressive, for in the face of so many attackers, he didn’t seem to be on the losing end.
“It’s time to end this.” Mu Xuan sighed, taking a step forward.
The next instance, a familiar force exploded from him, spreading across the entire Heavenly Bestowed yard. Yao Si’s heart trembled, and her legs started to weaken. This was a force she had no power to fight against—the bloodline suppression.
The next instant, all the abilities stopped, and all bloodlings in the room, besides Yao Si and Bai Yi, fell to the ground as though a strong force had pushed them down. Mu Xuan’s conscience was released at that moment as well
“You-your highness!” Fourth Elder fell on his knees from the pressure, his face full of shock as he looked at the three of them. He seemed to have figured something out. One side of his lips pulled up, and a bitter smile filled his face. “You… you found out after all.”
Mu Xuan frowned, keeping his silence.
“It’s you guys!” The only one that wasn’t affected by the bloodline suppression was Yuan. Even though his expression couldn’t be seen, his infuriated snarl showed that he had recognized Yao Si and Bai Yi. “What great timing! You saved me the trouble of having hunting you down.”
He waved the red scythe in his hand. “Heh, so what if your king is here, today I shall avenge my previous defeat. None of you will escape!”
“…”
Yao Si was appalled. Was his ignorance that serious? He was the first person who dared to speak to Mu Xuan like that…
You should get yourself treated if you’re mentally sick!
