Chapter 163: The Crisis Behind
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
For a moment, a crazy thought that shocked even him flashed through Luo Chen’s mind, but he quickly suppressed it.
Logic told him that it was impossible for anyone to do this. Moreover, the requirements for such a drug were too high. If the experimenter was not willing, the first to suffer a backlash would probably be the person who developed the drug.
Even if it really existed, it was a problem that had to be resolved in the future.
With this thought in mind, Luo Chen’s movements were not slow. Soon, he dealt with the two men.
Actually, when he was really helping them with the acupuncture, they were still very obedient.
They probably subconsciously knew that Luo Chen was actually saving their lives.
When everything was settled, the siblings were lying on the ground, their breathing still stable. Only their tightly furrowed brows could show that they were far from in a good state.
Luo Chen let out a long sigh and sat on the ground.
The fatigue in his bones made him lose the strength to even raise his hand. If not for the fact that he had to pay attention to the three of them at all times, what Luo Chen wanted to do the most at this moment was to go back and sleep!
“Cough… cough cough…”
After some time, Luo Chen heard a hoarse cough.
He was already leaning against the wall to rest. When he heard the cough, he immediately turned around and sat up without thinking, looking at the situation in front of him warily.
The woman was the first to wake up.
The bruises on her body had already disappeared without a trace. It looked like she had never been injured.
Including her swollen limbs, they had almost recovered.
If one did not look carefully, they would not be able to see the weakness and fear in the corners of her eyes.
Luo Chen was extremely tired now and had no intention of exchanging pleasantries. Seeing that the woman had woken up, he only waved at her weakly, stopping her from asking about the matter.
Now, he only wanted to sit here and rest!
He didn’t want to say anything useless to anyone!
The woman bit her lip and didn’t say anything. Instead, she silently took a few steps back and made way for Luo Chen.
The atmosphere in the basement was strangely peaceful.
The woman had already walked to her two unconscious brothers and was taking care of them meticulously. One moment, she was listening to their heartbeats, and the next moment, she touched their foreheads worriedly.
“It’s useless for you to do anything now. You can only rely on their willpower. If they can’t wake up now, they’ll never wake up.
I don’t think you can blame me for this, right? I tried very hard to save you guys.
I believe the few of you know that no matter what happens, since you’ve already made the decision to come and find trouble with me, you have to bear the corresponding consequences.
I definitely won’t let you go. Try your best to abandon this fantasy. Therefore, if your brothers don’t make it, just know that I’ve already tried my best to save them.”
Luo Chen’s sharp senses detected a hint of killing intent in the woman’s seemingly unintentional gaze.
Actually, if he were in her situation, he would probably not be calmer than her.
“Why?”
Soon, the woman turned around, one hand still worriedly testing the tall man’s breathing.
In the beginning, the tall man was already injured. Now that the poison had acted up, with his originally bad condition, it was very destructive. At certain times, it even seemed like he would die.
Moreover, their bodies had long been poisoned. This poison was very volatile. If the three siblings died from chronic poisoning, the organization could completely clear their names.
As famous bounty hunters, if something really happened to the three of them here, there was probably no need to wait until tomorrow morning. The insiders would begin to circulate how terrifying Luo Chen was.
At that time, perhaps no one would continue to cause trouble for Luo Chen.
From a certain perspective, letting them die was a more beneficial outcome for Luo Chen.
“What do you mean why? I’m your savior now. Who asked you to come? Can you tell me?”
Luo Chen waved his hand impatiently, not wanting to say anything useless.
Originally, he felt that after the siblings woke up, he should use some methods to interrogate them.
However, the fatigue and weakness in his body made him want to quickly resolve this huge problem.
When the woman heard this, she finally fell silent.
She turned around to look at her two brothers and then at Luo Chen awkwardly.
Her struggling expression was completely written on her face.
“Forget it. In any case, if you don’t say anything, I won’t let you leave. It’s up to you to choose. It won’t be long before the next group of people arrives, right? I want to see how many of your people can be locked up in my basement.”
Luo Chen’s patience was finally almost exhausted.
In fact, he was already secretly determined.
At most, he would lock up everyone who came after him!
After capturing all the people who dared to accept the bounty, the leader of the organization would probably lose his patience.
Any organization wouldn’t have an abundance of management members, especially these three siblings. Their strength couldn’t be underestimated.
It was just that they had found the wrong person and provoked someone they could afford to provoke.
Seeing that Luo Chen had really left without looking back, an exceptionally complicated expression flashed across the woman’s eyes.
The environment in the basement was actually far from good. The air was turbid, and the lights were dim. Even the few small windows couldn’t provide any proper illumination.
The woman looked at the sunlight coming through the small window in a daze, and her eyes turned sour.
The slow-acting poison in their bodies had been around for as long as they could remember.
If there was no mission, it was usually enough to detoxify the poison once a month.
Every time they went on a mission, they would be forced to take a potion with a catalytic nature.
In that case, if they did not complete the mission and return to the organization within 12 hours, the poison would immediately erupt if they didn’t take the antidote.
At that time, what awaited them was only the outcome of turning into a pool of pus.
Moreover, before this, because of the drug, their potential would be greatly stimulated and they would do something that was completely out of his control.
Such a drug could ensure that they would not reveal the secrets of the organization if they were captured by the enemy. It could also cause losses to the other party because of their madness at the last moment.
It could be said to be the best of both worlds. No matter what, the organization would not suffer a loss. They didn’t even need to spend much..
