The Gentleman at the End

Chapter 55: Chapter 54: Collaborative Enemy Killing

The shadowy figure with a liquid tank embedded in his head was unlike the voluptuous “female doctor” who had previously patrolled the dormitory.

Temporarily referred to as “male doctor,” he looked like someone who lived in the gym and drank protein powder like water—a terrifying presence.

1. “Arm”: Cables from various medical devices wove in and out of his arm. It was less like one arm and more like a complex arm formed by the interconnection of multiple arms. Even some baby-sized little hands could be seen clinging to it.

The length of the arm far exceeded that of a normal human, dragging on the ground beyond the wrist.

2. “Torso”: His physique could rival that of a bodybuilding champion, though a black-and-white screen heart monitor was embedded in his left chest.

He also wore a white lab coat without sleeves… or rather, the sleeves had long been torn apart by his robust arms.

3. “Leg”: The thighs were normal, but the knee joint connected to three smaller legs, the primary of which even had wolf fur, supporting the robust body in a stable tripod form.

4. “Head”: There was no obvious head structure, but a liquid tank was inserted in his decaying neck. The tank, filled with nutrient solution, contained a severely inflamed yellow eyeball.

The function of this eyeball was still normal, even clearer than a normal human eye by several times, and was fixedly staring at the two people at the edge of the rooftop.

It was another “Non-Normality Patient.”

Edmund had already switched to a stance of holding a gun in his left hand and a sword in his right, his expression grim.

“It looks like we have no choice but to fight—if we try to run back to the first floor now, this guy might trigger the clinic’s alarm, causing all the patients in the building to hunt us down.

Since Dagbert is not here, I’ll draw their attention and engage in close combat.

William, you assist from the side using your ‘plant class’ Pathological Traits and your excellent Vision trait…”

Before he could finish,

a dark shadow quickly dashed past Edmund’s side.

Upon closer inspection, it was Yi Chen, with a crow oil lamp at his waist and a silver axe in hand.

His black-and-white diagonal-striped tie fluttered at his side in the high-speed dive.

His face was also temporarily covered with a plant-based mask made of sprout material, not to isolate from pathology, but to ‘purify the air’.

He ensured that no matter what bodily fluids splashed on his face during the fight, he could still breathe the freshest air filled with a new plant scent, refreshing his brain and maintaining his focus.

“So fast!

Shouldn’t William be more of an intelligence type? Could it be an enhancement from his plant physique… No! His sprinting posture is quite standard and the muscle rhythm is perfect.

This guy has undergone special physical training.”

Edmund was startled by the burst of speed that Yi Chen suddenly exhibited.

You see,

this was the result of Yi Chen’s training on the ‘spiked treadmill’ over the last six months… feeling a ghostly piercing pain from the soles every step he took.

However,

to Yi Chen, pain was no longer a burden, but a stimulant.

…

Meanwhile,

the ‘male doctor’ also burst into a sprint in the same forward-leaning mode.

The speed provided by his wolf-fur small legs was not inferior to Yi Chen’s, while the other two small legs provided auxiliary support, making his lower body extremely stable.

His arms, being too long, dragged on the ground, gradually losing flesh and blood during the run, and revealing a concealed defibrillator within the palms.

Moonlight illuminated his flesh as if a stimulant had seeped into his body, causing his whole body to slightly wriggle.

In terms of physicality and aura, the ‘male doctor’ had the upper hand…

However,

Yi Chen did not show any hint of panic or fear.

‘Locking Vision’

In the vision constructed jointly with small grape, a circled dashed line with an ‘auto-aim’ feature had already encircled the yellow eyeball in the liquid tank.

It’s worth mentioning that,

a new element had emerged in the vision,

perhaps related to Yi Chen’s profession, or more precisely, related to the understanding of “Ancient Living Text.”

While gazing at the target,

lines of writhing, maggot-like text emerged within the retina.

The text perfectly outlined above the “male doctor’s” head, sketching out his name information:

[Heart Savior – Francisco Holt (Patient)]

It took less than one second.

The dotted circle turned solid, signifying that the “locking” was accomplished.

Whir!

Similar to the ability of the Lake Bottom Giant Eye, an invisible spiritual shock hit directly, impacting the patient’s thought level.

In an instant.

The male doctor spaced out, and due to the inertia from a rapid sprint, he heavily fell to the ground.

Clang!

The fluid tank on his neck shattered instantly,

Yellow grapes along with glass shards sprung out,

The little grape knee-jumped, catching the yellow grapes in the air with its black hands, then executed a mid-air somersault, landing securely back on Yi Chen’s shoulder.

Reverting to the original rooting mode, it stuffed the grape into its mouth.

The fresh and warm juice filled the mouth, but quickly turned bitter.

“Pah! The quality of the grape itself isn’t bad, but it’s severely inflamed, too bitter!”

As the little grape critiqued the yellow grape,

Yi Chen stepped forward swiftly and struck the fallen ‘male doctor’ with his axe.

Crack! @@novelbin@@

The middle of the back, flesh and spine, were sliced open together, red marrow fluid gushing out… Such an injury would totally paralyze a human.

Creak creak~

Using the split in the back, multiple plant roots followed the axe, growing into the ‘male doctor’s’ body, seeking the rooted location of the “Pathogen”.

About five seconds passed,

The fully invading roots discovered an abnormality at the heart,

A tumor-like pathogen, encapsulated within the “Heart Monitor”… the surface even emitted sparks powering the entire body.

“Found it!”

Yi Chen prepared to further control the roots, aggressively invading the monitor… the sharp tip of the roots penetrated the pathogen, intending to extract it dry.

Just then.

The ‘male doctor’s’ body twitched, as the wound in his back rapidly healed.

He had recovered from the spiritual shock, fully alert… The fractured spine did not affect his movement, and the electric currents flowing through the cables in his arms functioned as nerves.

The gigantic arm swung at an unbelievable angle!

A palm struck Yi Chen’s chest,

It was not just the shock of force but also coordinated with an in-built defibrillator… Crack! There was a clear sound of breaking ribs.

The lean body of Yi Chen was blown away by a palm, flying towards the edge of the rooftop, he might even have fallen off completely.

White smoke was coming from his chest, as if it had been scorched by an electric shock.

“William!”

Edmund instinctively wanted to run to the edge of the rooftop, to catch his teammate.

However,

Yi Chen, who should have been severely injured and unconscious, was leisurely ‘lying in the air,’ smiling and enjoying being blown away.

He also turned his body sideways, deliberately pointing at a spot on his left chest, transmitting crucial information to Edmund.

The next second… Bang~

The gunshot was suppressed to the lowest decibel by a silencer, only spreading across the rooftop.

The ‘male doctor’, who had just gotten up, intending to pursue Yi Chen, fell to the ground once again.

The monitor in his chest was penetrated by a bullet… The internal pathogen tumor hit by the silver bullet, completely corroded.
