1365 “Resurrection”
First, the tips of his fingers moved, then his entire palm, then his arms, feet, and legs. Dr. Querzaros’s “corpse” moved bit by bit.
At first, it seemed to be very difficult for him to move. He could only move the ends of his body very slightly. However, the speed at which he recovered was clearly getting faster and faster. Before long, he could completely move his limbs and slowly sit up.
After sitting up, he was in a daze for a while. Dr. Querzaros—it could no longer be called a corpse—opened his eyes. His eyes quickly recovered from being blank and lifeless. Soon, an expression began to appear on his face. His facial features moved for a moment before he slowly stood up.
He was alive.
Dr. Querzaros turned his head and looked around. Then, he closed his eyes and let go of his perception to carefully sense the surrounding space for a while. After confirming that there were no traces of anyone else around, he opened his eyes again and revealed a relieved smile. However, coupled with his thin face that was only bones and skin, it looked abnormally sinister.
Then, the smile on his face turned into doubt.
“Where did these two little fellows come from? How can they be so strong? Also, what cultivation method did that kid use in the end? It looks very much like the legendary Exterminating Heart Technique. Could it be that he’s a prince of the royal family of the Declan Empire? During this period of time, it’s the time when the royal family of the Declan Empire holds the Garden Hunting Assembly. It’s not strange for a prince to come here. However, just a prince is so powerful. The strength of the Declan Empire can’t be underestimated.”
Dr. Querzaros stood on the spot and pondered for a moment. He shook his head and shook off his thoughts. He gently took a deep breath and a trace of Internal Breath flowed out of his mostly damaged dantian and slowly circulated in his body.
The self-detonation and feigned death just now were extremely harmful to his body. Even if he came back to life now, it would take a period of time to recover.
However, he did not dare to continue staying here. If Chu Nan and Angie Prairie returned on a whim to check the situation and encountered him, they would probably die.
Originally, Dr. Querzaros had absolute confidence in himself and felt that he could ignore any martial artist below the Star-Grade Martial Artist Realm. He did not expect that he would be forcefully defeated by a young kid and even be taught a lesson by the other party.
Through the battle just now, he knew very well that he might be able to suppress Chu Nan in terms of pure strength, but just as Chu Nan had taught him a lesson in the end, strength in a true battle was not the only thing. In other aspects, he was clearly inferior to Chu Nan and there was no possibility of winning if they continued to fight.
Moreover, he had forcefully entered the immature third form and maintained it for a period of time, causing too much burden on his body. If he left the transformation state, his strength would only decrease even more, let alone be Chu Nan’s match.
Fortunately, he still had such a technique and decisively chose to fake his death.
Before making this decision, Dr. Querzaros was still worried that Chu Nan and Angie Prairie would do something to the “corpse” he had left behind. This way, although he was not afraid, it would cause a lot of trouble.
Fortunately, those two little fellows were young after all and had not learned to be as ruthless as those old fellows. They had preserved a “full corpse” for him, saving him a lot of time.
Under the stimulation of the “Genetic Potential Excavation Divine Technique” created by Dr. Querzaros, his body quickly recovered and grew enough cell tissue to completely make up for all his injuries.
In just a few minutes, his thin body had already become round like a balloon… To be precise, he had become stronger.
Dr. Querzaros, who had been looking strange like a dried corpse previously, had changed his style to a burly man with strong muscles.
However, if one looked carefully, one would discover that there was no longer that subtle fluctuation on the surface of his body. Instead, he looked more like a normal person.
Dr. Querzaros touched the skin on his chest. Although he felt extremely hard and firm muscles that felt extremely powerful with a touch, he shook his head and smiled bitterly.
“It seems that it will take at least a month to accumulate enough potential. Sigh, these two damned kids, when I have the chance, I must skin them from head to toe and study them carefully. I won’t let go of every cell!”
After gritting his teeth and muttering to himself, Dr. Querzaros looked around. His gaze landed on the group of mutated beasts still in the corner of the space and he frowned. Then, he opened his mouth and let out a series of extremely strange sounds.
However, after hearing these voices, those mutated beasts took the initiative to approach Dr. Querzaros and form a circle around him.
Dr. Querzaros flipped around and rode on the back of a strange bird. He let out another strange cry and the group of mutated beasts soared into the air.
Just as they were about to collide with the wall above their heads, a large garden hole suddenly opened in the dome of the huge space, and a black passageway appeared.
A group of mutated beasts carried Dr. Querzaros into the passageway and quickly disappeared.
Seeing that the passageway was about to close, Chu Nan and Angie Prairie, who had been hiding, appeared and rushed into the passageway at the last moment.
There was no need to spend much effort tracking. The stench coming from the various mutated beasts spreading in the passageway was the best symbol. The two of them followed this aura in the passageway for a while and discovered that the two sides of the passageway had already turned into rocks.
After a while, a trace of light began to appear in front of them, and then it became brighter and brighter. After waiting for a moment, the two of them saw the bright light outside.
The two of them arrived at the entrance of the cave and waited patiently before carefully poking their heads out.
Looking around, he easily discovered the traces of the strange birds and other mutated beasts that were about to leave in the distant sky.
Chu Nan grabbed Angie Prairie who wanted to rush out and follow immediately.
“I’ll chase after him. Go back and inform Romanti and Carola. I’ll leave marks along the way. Keep an eye out.”
Angie Prairie had a thought and quickly thought of the key. She did not waste any time and nodded very bluntly, but she did not forget to remind him.
“If I’m not beside you, you’re not allowed to fight others to the death.”
“I promise you.” Chu Nan nodded seriously and smiled, “Don’t worry, I won’t die in a place you can’t see. This is my promise to you.”
After saying that, Chu Nan leaned over and kissed Angie Prairie’s lips before turning around and immediately flying over.
