"It's strange, why my ability has lost its effect on this young man..."
Tun muttered secretly in his heart, a little confused.
However, as a senior member of the organization with rank A, and because he was facing Qing Ling and Hong Lian at this time, Tun would not ask questions to his superiors even if he was confused.
Although the old saying goes that it is not shameful to ask questions, but the man's self-esteem does not allow Tun to do that.
You know, he had just pretended to be in front of the two girls. Wouldn't it be too cheap if he asked now?
Thinking of this, Tun coughed heavily, causing the fat on his body to tremble.
"Boy, I don't like to use force. You'd better explain yourself honestly."
He pushed aside the red lotus blocking his side and said in a bad tone.
"Why are you asking me again? Didn't I explain everything on the way here..."
Lu Yu glanced at Qing Ling in confusion, but the latter turned his attention elsewhere, with a look of being unconcerned.
"Damn, this woman is starting to pretend to be dead. She promised to put in a good word for me..."
Although he was complaining in his heart, Lu Yu actually understood.
It is completely unrealistic and childish to think that Qing Ling will be on his side based on his previous words.
In the world of adults, there are only interests.
But if you let yourself explain it, it obviously won't work.
This has been verified before when facing Qing Ling and others. Lu Yu may be able to deceive low-level action team members such as Chen Lang, or he may be able to deceive the simple-minded Hong Lian.
But when it comes to a difficult character like Qing Ling or even a higher-ranking Tun, his random fabrications cannot cover up the situation at all.
On the contrary, it will make oneself as ridiculous as a clown.
In that case, it's better to remain silent and have a tougher attitude. Plus, since he carries the king-level virus, he might be able to frighten the other party.
So in the end, Lu Yu decided to remain silent and see what kind of reaction the fat man opposite him would have.
As everyone knows, while Lu Yu is thinking about countermeasures in his heart, Tun's brain is also running at high speed.
He has used his ability of [Strength Perception] to the extreme. If his strength had not reached a certain level and he could freely control the overflow of spiritual energy, he would probably have had a sudden surge of light particles all over his body, attracting attention.
But after some investigation, the results obtained by Tun were still the same as before.
He simply couldn't see through the level of strength of the young man opposite him.
"Mom, what the hell is going on? Why can't I sense his level..."
Tun cursed secretly in his heart, with a cold expression on his fat face.
If the young man opposite was just an ordinary person, he would probably raise his hand and smash Lu Yu into pieces.
After all, the life of an ordinary person may not be as valuable as a mutated zombie in his eyes.
But he could feel the aura of an ability user on Lu Yu!
Moreover, the aura of this ability is weird, and its strength cannot be clearly judged.
The strange silence lasted for a long time.
The less the young man opened his mouth, the more he realized that things were not simple.
Suddenly, Tun's brain, which was overflowing with fat, suddenly had an idea.
"Is it because my ability failed because he has the ability to restrain me?"
The more Tun thought about it, the more he realized it was possible, and the look he looked at Lu Yu changed from cold to cautious.
Although his [strength perception] is sharp, he is not invincible within the organization.
After all, the ability to create foreign genes combined with secondary viruses is almost unlimited.
Before setting off for Research Station No. 4, he heard that the organization had cultivated a person with special abilities who seemed to have no physical body and could directly parasitize the bodies of zombies.
Since everyone has such incredible abilities, it is not a small probability that the young man in front of him happens to have the ability to restrain himself.
.
The more I think about it, the more I realize it makes sense, and the more I think about it, the more I realize it is the truth.
After coughing slightly, he cast a cautious look at Lu Yu.
"Since you don't want to say it, then don't blame me for using force."
Although he decided to treat it with caution, he could not lose the momentum on the surface, so the look on Tun's face did not change, and he still had the confident look before.
"My identity has been explained to Qing Ling before. You can just ask her directly. I am too lazy to say it again."
However, just when Tun was about to continue to say something to intimidate the other party, Lu Yu suddenly spoke in a lazy tone.
"What?"
The swallowed fat meat trembled again, and he stared at Lu Yu for a while, then turned to look at Qing Ling.
Qing Ling, who was on the side, originally wanted to watch the excitement, but when she heard that the young man's words were so disrespectful to Tun, she suddenly panicked and immediately wanted to stop him.
"Lu Yu, pay attention to the way you talk to Master Tun..."
Before the woman could finish the word "attitude", Tun raised his palm and made a silencing gesture.
"Compared with Qing Ling's description, I prefer you to say it again, what? Don't you want to?"
As soon as these words came out, both Qing Ling and Hong Lian felt the faint murderous intention emanating from Tun!
This gentleman is angry!
"Of course I don't want to. Do you know how long I have been talking to that woman? We were talking the whole way here, but from yesterday to now, I haven't even drank a sip of water..."
It's still the same attitude as before, even more unrestrained.
"It's over..."
Qing Ling and Hong Lian whispered in their hearts at the same time.
Tun is known within the organization for being a bully and having a bad temper. Now that the young man is so rude, one can imagine the consequences waiting for him.
Sure enough, after hearing Lu Yu's "explanation", Tun was silent for a long time, and faint particles of light began to shine through his body!
They are very few in number and appear light blue.
Just when Qing Ling and Hong Lian thought that Tun was about to go berserk, the man's fat body suddenly trembled, the light particles retracted, and he nodded to Lu Yu in a very friendly manner.
"It turns out that it's because I was tired all the way. I didn't think it through well. Honglian Qingling, he is the person you brought, so it's up to you to take care of him. Rest here for a day, and we can discuss it before setting off tomorrow. .”
With that said, Tun waved directly at Honglian and Qingling.
Honglian Qingling looked confused: "Uh..."
Lord Tun, don’t ask anymore? Just send them away like that?
"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot that you came up here to find Falcon. He is on the third underground floor, where Experimental Subject No. 4 is..."
While speaking, perhaps he noticed that Qing Ling and Hong Lian had not moved yet, so Tun stopped talking and spoke to urge them.
"What are you still doing? Go quickly."
"Yes, Lord Tun."
Only then did Hong Lian and Qing Ling come to their senses. They quickly bowed to the fat man and retreated towards the elevator from which they came.
Until the second before the door closed, Tun still stood there and stared at them. Although there was no smile on his fat face, he didn't seem to be angry either.
"What kind of medicine did Master Tun take today? Why did his temper suddenly become so good..."
Muttering silently in her heart, Qing Ling looked at Lu Yu in disbelief.
If on normal days, anyone dared to talk to Tun like he just did, they would have been pushed to the ground and rubbed hard.
"Who are you?"
Before Qing Ling could speak, Hong Lian was the first to ask.
"...Didn't I explain everything clearly when I came here? How many times do you want me to say that I am just an ordinary citizen? Do you understand?"
Lu Yu stretched out his index finger, nodded his head several times, and then looked at Qing Ling and Hong Lian with an idiot look.
That is undoubtedly saying, are you two smart?
Now, can’t you understand people?
"How can ordinary people make Lord Tun look so nice?!"
Qing Ling raised one eyebrow high and her eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
On the way here, she could still barely believe Lu Yu's words.
But now that she sees Lord Tun’s reaction, she doesn’t believe it anymore!
"You're talking about that damn fat guy? Although he looks a little bit ugly, he still has a good attitude..."
Lu Yu pulled the calf back and forth, completely unaware of the changing expressions of Qing Ling and Hong Lian.
In fact, we can't blame him. Lu Yu doesn't have the ability to empathize. In addition, he is not familiar with Tun's character, so he can only guess from the literal meaning of the conversation.
"He actually called Lord Tun Fatty..."
At this time, Qing Ling and Hong Lian in the elevator were no longer talking.
Although they psychologically agreed with Lu Yu's evaluation, Hong Lian and Qing Ling did not dare to say it even if Teng was not present.
Because there is no difference between doing that and seeking death.
The first stage of swallowing foreign genes gave him the magical ability of [strength perception], but it also brought a fatal side effect.
Gluttony.
According to the two women's understanding, Tun was always in a state of hunger, and this state was not physical, but mental.
In other words, even if he eats enough to fill his stomach with food, he will still feel endless hunger.
And this state continues to get stronger as his strength grows.
At first, Tun was able to resist with willpower, but soon, that weak willpower was completely ineffective.
Eating like crazy just to get the satisfaction of swallowing.
Moreover, with the physical quality of the ability user, Swallow's digestion and absorption abilities are also greatly enhanced.
The amount of food that would have lasted him to death in the past could now be eaten up by him, digested and absorbed, and turned into fat hanging on his body.
Although this state does not pose any fatal threat to Tun, his body shape is becoming deformed day by day.
Therefore, Tun hates the word "fat", and words like "dead fat man" are even more like a scale-like existence, and will cause death if touched.
"Lord Tun hates being called fat. This is basically an unspoken rule that everyone in the organization knows, except for those low-level personnel who don't know the truth or those who are stronger than Tun..."
Based on Lu Yu's previous performance, he obviously belongs to the category who doesn't know the truth.
But why was Lord Tun so friendly towards him? This is not consistent with the character of swallowing the strong and bullying the weak.
Qing Ling looked at Lu Yu with a complicated look in her eyes.
Could it be...
