Creepy Pharmacist: All my patients are scary!
Chapter 690: Why Didn't She Kill Him?A silence so brief it was like a ghost had passed through.
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
Zuo Zuo immediately sat up with a (≧▽≦) expression and raised a finger with a (^▽^)♪, saying:
"Stupid Brain really knows how to tell jokes! Is Stupid Brain trying to liven up the atmosphere with this kind of thing? Really, hahahaha! Stupid Brain, you're such a little rascal!"
Little Treasure also relaxed, and Sir Aiwen shook his head, revealing a helpless and wry smile.
Clearly.
For Lynn, who never played by the rules, it was entirely possible that he would crack such an awful joke even at a time like this.
Just as the atmosphere was about to fill with cheerful laughter, Lynn panicked. Staring at the loli who was leaning back and laughing heartily, he grabbed her shoulders and shook her back and forth frantically, saying urgently:
"..."
The smile on Zuo Zuo's face froze in place.
Once again, there was a brief, deathly silence.
"What?!"
All three of them finally shouted out in shock.
...
More than ten minutes later.
Zuo Zuo and Little Treasure sat there with hollow eyes, and Sir Aiwen was also stiff as he listened to Lynn's recollection. After hearing everything, none of them could say a single word.
Lynn sat cross-legged there, eyes closed, fists clenched and arms crossed, sitting upright and solemn as he said:
"I'm not lying to you, and I'm not trying to lighten the mood. At least from the memories in my head, during the time I lost my sanity, I did do some extremely absurd things with the Desire Mother Tree. Fill in the details yourselves; I'm not going to tell you."
Zuo Zuo's eyes were vacant, staring blankly at Lynn as she said:
"So you mean... you and a tree?"
A massive "╬" instantly exploded on Lynn's head, and with his eyes still closed, he said:
"Even though I know what you're trying to say, your habit of casually omitting parts of a sentence still pisses me off a lot."
Sir Aiwen used a great deal of effort to digest what Lynn had just told them. Frowning, he said:
"You mean to say, you used curses on yourself multiple times, which caused your sanity to collapse, and the Desire Strikes you two had been unleashing on each other before that also took over your minds at that moment, which is how... that absurd thing you mentioned... happened?"
Sir Aiwen's gaze wavered with uncertainty.
Lynn kept his eyes closed, maintaining his upright posture, adjusted his monocle, and said:
"Something like that. At that time, I was basically out of options. I guess I was thinking, 'If I'm going to die anyway, I might as well get something out of it,' which is why I went for it. But things really got out of hand afterward. I never imagined it would turn out like this!"
In his mind, he inevitably replayed that chaotic scene once again.
The intertwining of harm and desire.
It was truly a scene he would never have dared to imagine in ordinary times.
And he had always thought that his first time, even if it wasn't lost while bullying his left hand, would at least be sweetly given away during his relationship with Miss Puppet. And even if it came to the worst, it should have been during the ambiguous lessons of Blood-Robed Madam, with that older sister taking his first kill.
He really, truly had never imagined that his chastity would be so stupidly and fuzzily taken by a Root-level being who was supposed to be his enemy!
Lynn's fist clenched with a cracking sound as he kept his eyes closed.
And more importantly.
In that state of total loss of sanity, he hadn't even felt much of anything!
That was what pissed him off the most!
Because even though the Desire Mother Tree was a terrifying, twisted Root-level being, the young girl who had manifested in this space was actually very beautiful. She was a goddess, after all! And he had just fumbled through it like that! The process, the process, the process! The process was what mattered most!
Lynn had explosive air currents swirling above his head in fury.
"Lynn, don't be too angry. Your health comes first."
Sir Aiwen patted him on the shoulder, took a deep breath, and said deeply:
"And no matter what, you're alive now. It seems that the Desire Mother Tree didn't really intend to kill you afterward. Otherwise, I'm afraid we really would never have found you again."
Lynn snapped back to reality. He turned to look around, adjusted his monocle, and frowned as he asked:
"So where is this?"
He knew that the Matriarch's blessing must have been triggered, and he had just completed the process of regeneration.
But what had happened during this time, he had no idea.
Sir Aiwen stood up, his eyes reflecting Lynn's face as he said:
"We only found you not long ago. After I broke free from that projection, your hand and your mount found me and told me what had happened to you. And because the Colossus link was activated earlier, your left hand was able to sense your location."
"By the time we got here, we only saw you lying here."
Lynn raised an eyebrow.
He got up and turned to look at the ground around him.
He slowly picked up a handful of dust from under his feet and squeezed it. As the dust slipped through his fingers, what remained were fragments of fine, shredded vines.
Looking at the massive ravines and traces of battle in the distance, Lynn could confirm that this was the place where he and the Desire Mother Tree had been before the projection interfered.
The projection was gone.
But what about the Mother Tree?
Had she already managed to withstand the suppression of that projection and left this place?
Then why hadn't she killed him?
Lynn frowned.
"Lynn, there's something I don't know how to tell you. Have you noticed that after this regeneration, your body is very different from before?"
Aiwen's voice came to his ears.
Lynn was stunned.
He immediately looked down at his hands, and the series of system prompts that had echoed in his mind during his dying moments instantly surfaced.
Whoosh—
With just a slight activation, the flesh and blood on his body instantly transformed into countless twisted tentacles, leaving deep, long furrows in the ground in the distance in an instant.
