115: Chapter 115 Father Lu Chuan's Crisis (Part Two)
Inside an experimental base in a certain city, Lu Chuan hung up the phone and looked at the middle-aged man beside him.
The man smiled slightly.
"That was your child, wasn't it?"
Lu Chuan nodded, a happy smile appearing on his face.
"One son and one daughter, you lucky guy. Unlike me, with two boys at home, it really worries me to death."
"Hahaha, two boys are actually better; you don't have to worry about them supporting you in your old age," Lu Chuan said, a trace of worry flashing in his eyes.
"Those guys found my home, but thankfully, there is some good news. My daughter is an Evolver now, and she seems to be very powerful. With her there, I can rest easy here."
"Not bad at all. It seems your daughter is stronger than you, the father!"
"As for the children supporting us in our old age, we don't even know if we can make it to that point."
"We don't even know if we can survive," the man sighed, his eyes also filled with a trace of sorrow.
Lu Chuan stood up and patted the man's shoulder.
"It's okay, we will definitely survive."
At this moment, a woman wearing a white lab coat walked over slowly.
"Lu Chuan, how is your condition today?"
"Officer Wang, the condition is good today. That power hasn't flared up in my body."
"It's just that I've tried to follow your instructions and attempt to control it, but every time I make contact, I encounter its violent resistance."
The power Lu Chuan referred to had entered his body after he came into contact with a strange object unearthed at the construction site. He had sensed something was wrong at the time and immediately called the police.
Fortunately, the police arrived in time, and there was no one else around the construction site. When he felt he had lost his sanity, it was as if he had turned into a beast that only knew how to kill.
It wouldn't have taken long before he was blown apart by this power. Afterward, he lost consciousness, and when he woke up, he was here. The man beside him had shared the same experience.
The man had arrived earlier than him, and after several days of communication, the two were already quite familiar with each other.
Upon hearing this, Officer Wang skillfully examined Lu Chuan's body.
"The situation is not bad; that power has been temporarily suppressed."
"As for controlling it, that's just my hypothesis. After all, every attempt brings more hope. This power has been existing in your body; if not for our external intervention, it would have already erupted."
"But this is not a solution. This power is constantly eroding your bodies. Even if it doesn't flare up, your bodies will be exhausted."
"So you need to keep trying."
"However, don't worry too much. We are here, and we are doing our best to analyze this power," Officer Wang said, and after hearing this, Lu Chuan immediately said.
"Officer Wang, my home just called to say that those people have already found my house."
"I'm worried they will go back again."
"You can rest assured about this matter. I have already reported it to my superiors, and that is exactly why I came to see you."
"Your daughter called us through a connection, but don't worry, we didn't disclose your actual situation. However, regarding the situation you mentioned, we have already discussed it with your daughter, so there is no need to worry about home."
"Just focus on solving the problems with your bodies here."
"You are safe now; as long as you don't go out and expose your whereabouts, those guys won't be able to get in here."
Officer Wang continued, and Lu Chuan and the man beside him nodded slowly before leaving.
However, after leaving the room, a look of worry appeared on Officer Wang's face. The situation was actually not as good as she had described. To this day, their people were at a loss regarding this strange power.
They didn't even know where this power came from, only guessing that it originated from the previous era.
Lu Chuan's case was not the first; many people had already died from this power before.
The mysterious force in the outside world was also constantly collecting things that could carry this strange power, and they wouldn't even spare people like Lu Chuan who had been accidentally invaded by the power.
They knew too little about that mysterious force. Even if they caught some people, they couldn't even be considered peripheral members, and they couldn't get any information out of them at all.
"So far, there is only one way to solve this power."
"But the cost is too high."
Officer Wang said in a deep voice. The method she spoke of was to use a powerful external force to forcibly suppress and then clear the strange power from within the body.
But this was extremely strenuous, and the person acting must have strength no lower than Tier 3, otherwise it would have no effect at all.
And the most troublesome part was that the person acting must have an extremely strong body to ignore the risks brought by this strange power, so it could only be a Martial Artist.
Tier 3 Martial Artists were already rare, and each one was an extremely noble existence; how could such a person take risks for an ordinary person?
Moreover, cases like Lu Chuan's were by no means isolated, so they needed to find a simple and effective method as soon as possible.
...
Lu Zheng and his sister, Lu Wen, did not know about this scene happening in a certain city.
Soon, Lu Zheng and his sister, Lu Wen, arrived at their destination. This was a famous residence in Jianghai City, antique and occupying a significant area; it had existed in Jianghai City for a long time.
It could be called an ancient building. Around the ancient residence, Lu Zheng discovered quite a few plainclothes officers observing the situation at all times.
Not far away, the main gate of the ancient residence was wide open, with people coming and going, appearing extremely lively and festive.
Those who could appear here and enter and exit the courtyard freely were all far from simple; their muscles and bones were well-defined, their gazes sharp, and their Aura was like that of a dragon or tiger—one look and you could tell they were martial practitioners.
"We've arrived. Let's go in," Lu Wen said, a trace of curiosity in her eyes as she headed toward the residence.
Lu Zheng also had a strange look in his eyes; this residence must be his master's.
He had thought the residence his master mentioned to him before was just an ordinary one; he hadn't expected it to be like this.
"Hello, please show your invitation," someone stopped the two.
Lu Wen was stunned; she hadn't heard that an invitation was required to enter.
The man at the door saw this and knew what was going on; they must have come because of the reputation.
"Sorry, this is a private place. If just anyone could enter, wouldn't it be chaotic?"
"Besides, since you know about this, your status shouldn't be simple either, and you should understand who is inside. I don't need to say more about such matters. If you don't have an invitation, please leave."
