Chapter 1364 - 1364 Stop Acting
1364 Stop Acting
“Dead?”
Chu Nan was shocked and hurriedly stretched out his hand to reach out. He discovered that Dr. Querzaros was indeed no longer breathing, let alone having any heartbeat. Even when his Internal Breath entered his body, he did not discover any energy fluctuations.
This situation only proved that he was clearly dead.
“Damn, I haven’t even gotten anything out of him. How did he die?”
Chu Nan was a little stunned.
He had originally basically confirmed that this Dr. Querzaros must know this place very well and was closely related to the strange birds that had destroyed the teleportation door. He would definitely be able to ask many very valuable things from him. Not only could he help them return, but he could also give them a deeper understanding of what was happening there.
However, now, Dr. Querzaros was actually dead!
How did this guy die?
Chu Nan frowned and was a little puzzled.
On the surface, it seemed that Dr. Querzaros had forcefully entered the third form and fought with Chu Nan for a long time, causing his body to exceed the burden and be unable to hold on. Or perhaps, he had suffered a backlash from the cultivation method, causing his body to be close to completely disintegrating. That was why he was exhausted and finally died.
However, if there was really such a result, Dr. Querzaros should know. Although Chu Nan had avoided every attack, he did not counterattack, let alone cause him any fatal damage.
Just because he had used his cultivation method too much, this… was too laughable, right?
Chu Nan thought for a moment and with a thought, his Internal Breath flowed. The spatial energy around him condensed and strands of green aura that represented life force gathered. He planned to activate the Goddess’ Song cultivation method to inject his life force into Dr. Querzaros’ body to try and save him.
The greatest magical thing about the Goddess’ Song cultivation method was that as long as the other party was not completely dead, under the injection of a large amount of life force, there was the hope of being forcefully saved.
However, just as Chu Nan moved, Angie Prairie suddenly stretched out her hand and grabbed him.
Feeling the strength coming from Angie Prairie’s hand, Chu Nan looked up in surprise and saw her slowly shaking her head at him. Then, she stretched out her other hand and pointed at Dr. Querzaros who was lying on the ground before glancing at him.
With the tacit understanding that the two of them had nurtured for a long time, Chu Nan naturally understood Angie Prairie’s meaning without words. He immediately stopped the Goddess’ Song cultivation method and the green aura filled with life force instantly faded.
Then, he deliberately let out a long sigh.
“Sigh, I originally thought that I had found a very good clue, but I didn’t expect him to die just like that. What a pity.”
Angie Prairie tilted her body and turned her head to an angle with her back facing Dr. Querzaros on the ground. She winked at Chu Nan with a strange smile and looked around before sighing.
“It’s indeed a pity. Dr. Querzaros is very famous among the people who study biological genetic engineering in the entire Milky Way. I didn’t expect him to die like this. I don’t think anyone expected him to die here for no reason, right?”
“Yes, fortunately, there are no outsiders. Otherwise, others would definitely think that we killed him,” Chu Nan said as he stood up, “Forget it, since he’s dead, we can’t find out anything. Hurry up and go out. Romanti and the others are still waiting outside. We haven’t gone out for so long. They must be anxious from waiting.”
“Yes, alright. Hurry up and leave.”
Angie Prairie replied and followed Chu Nan out of the passageway.
After walking out of the huge space, the two of them entered the passageway. After confirming that the distance was enough, Chu Nan sent a voice transmission to Angie Prairie through the microwave vibration of spatial energy.
“Hey, are you really sure he’s not dead?”
“Although he’s completely dead from the various physical signs, from the genetic information deep in his body, he hasn’t entered a decline. It can be seen that he’s actually not really dead.” Angie Prairie also sent a voice transmission, “If I’m not wrong, he should have used a special cultivation method to enter a very realistic state of suspended animation.”
“But if that’s the case, I feel that… our acting skills were so bad just now. Will he believe us?” Chu Nan frowned slightly and said in confusion.
“Don’t worry, I’ve checked all his body cell tissue. I can confirm that his current physical condition is no different from a dead person. His various organs can’t accept information from the outside world. He shouldn’t be able to see us or hear us speak. Similarly, he can’t sense the flow of air, so he can’t sense our movements.”
“Then why do you still want me to cooperate with you in this show?” Chu Nan could not help but roll his eyes, “Don’t you know how awkward I was just now? In any case, he can’t see or hear us. Let’s just leave.”
“Ha, of course, I know.” Angie Prairie’s chuckle sounded in Chu Nan’s ears, “Actually, I’m similar, but in order to prevent him from sensing the outside world through other methods, we more or less have to act. As for whether he believes it… he doesn’t seem to have the right to choose now.”
Chu Nan turned around and looked at the huge underground space connected to the depths of the passageway. He looked at Angie Prairie and the two of them nodded. Then, they slowly restrained their auras and spent a period of time completely restraining them.
If other martial artists measured their location through their perception, from the speed at which this aura weakened, they should have slowly left.
After her aura was completely restrained, Angie Prairie stretched out her hand and grabbed Chu Nan.
Chu Nan glanced at her strangely. Just as he was about to ask what he wanted to do, he sensed a warm Internal Breath coming from Angie Prairie’s palm. It flowed into his body without him being defenseless and quickly spread throughout his body, enveloping every part of his body.
This Internal Breath was very strange. After it flowed in, Chu Nan felt as if the cell tissue in his entire body was pressed down by an invisible hand and became extremely inactive. The various organs in his body circulated extremely slowly.
Of course, this aura only enveloped the surface of Chu Nan’s body. He could still clearly sense the normal circulation of his internal organs and did not affect the flow of his dantian’s Internal Breath.
However, he was certain that under the envelopment of this aura, if outsiders relied on their perception to investigate him, they might treat him as a dead person.
Chu Nan was even more surprised.
Angie Prairie and that Dr. Querzaros were indeed involved in genetic engineering. The two of them actually had the same method.
After making all these preparations, Angie Prairie pulled Chu Nan’s hand and turned around to quietly sneak back into the huge underground space.
The two of them quietly replied to the entrance of the passageway and pressed their bodies against it. Only a little of their vision could see into the depths of the space. They could see that Dr. Querzaros’s “corpse” was still lying there motionless.
“Hey, Angie Prairie, do you think… he’s not afraid that we’ll tear him into pieces on a whim?” Chu Nan sent a voice transmission to her.
“Perhaps he’s not afraid of shattered corpses at all and has a cultivation method similar to physical rebirth,” Angie Prairie replied, “Master figured out this cultivation method through studying genetic engineering. He’s also an expert in this aspect. Perhaps he has the ability.”
“Impossible… Supremacy Oville is a Star-Grade Martial Artist. This guy’s strength is at most at the low-level Heaven Control Realm. How can you compare?” Chu Nan did not agree.
“Who can say for sure about cultivation methods?” Angie Prairie casually replied.
The two of them chatted through the microwave vibration of spatial energy as they waited calmly.
After waiting for nearly an hour, there was no movement from Dr. Querzaros’s “corpse”, as if he was really dead.
If not for the fact that he fully believed Angie Prairie’s judgment, Chu Nan would have long rushed out and directly cut Dr. Querzaros’ “corpse” into pieces to see if he could still pretend to be dead.
“Hey, Angie Prairie, I’m afraid it’s not a solution to wait like this. We can wait. I’m afraid Romanti and Carola outside can’t. We haven’t returned for so long. They’ll think something has happened to us.” Chu Nan glanced at Dr. Querzaros’ “corpse” and thought for a moment before sending a voice transmission to Angie Prairie, “Why don’t I continue to guard here? Go back and inform the two of them first to prevent them from worrying.”
Angie Prairie looked at the “corpse” in the distance and frowned for a moment before sending a soft yes.
Just as Angie Prairie planned to quietly return, she suddenly sensed something amiss and focused her gaze on the “corpse” of Dr. Querzaros on the ground in the distance with Chu Nan.
At this moment, the “corpse” suddenly moved.
