Chapter 61: I am afraid of hurting you.

After Gabriel finished the task at hand, Zhou Yan called him over to discuss the experiment with him. Gabriel had never seen such a serious look from Zhou Yan, so he was a little panicked.

“What’s wrong… So serious, are you two trying to judge me?”

Zhou Yan looked at him, “What are you being judged for? I’m asking you to do something.”

Gabriel looked back and forth between the two of them and wondered, “Just tell me if there’s something you want to do with our relationship, there’s no need to talk about begging.”

Just as he finished speaking, Luo Futu glanced at him, and Gabriel clearly felt his murderous aura, and originally wanted to sit next to Zhou Yan, but had to find a place far away from him.

Zhou Yan then told him about the current situation, including what he was doing during his absence, the purpose of the experiment and how it was progressing… Although he tried to use some mild words, Gabriel was still surprised – if not for the fact that Zhou Yan was the object of his admiration, he probably would have thought that Zhou Yan was a madman, after all, he had never heard that it was possible to connect an organ or a tissue to a completely unrelated person before. 

“This… How can something like this be done to a human body?”

A badly handled one, they could be treated as a cult.

He finished with a hint of disgust on his face, “And even if you use Mystic’s body, you still use the body of a magical beast…”

He didn’t dare to ask where the Mystic body took off things from, always felt Zhou Yan was doing something terrible behind his own back…

Zhou Yan sighed slightly, “Do not worry, I have tested on animals, it is feasible, whether it is with Lurian – that is, magical beasts – cells inside the brain after optimizing the cultivated tissue, or with the transcendental cells cultivated Tissues that can be fused with mecha in ordinary people. However, when the tissue cultivated simply with the meridian cells is docked with the mecha, the energy of the mecha to the docked creature will be inexhaustible and the creature will be drained very quickly, but the tissue cultivated by adding the brain stem extracted cells of the magical beast to make the two cells fuse can solve this problem perfectly. Of course… Lack of clinical experiments, naturally there is a certain risk, but the risk rate is very low, no need to worry excessively.”

In fact, before Zhou Yan decided to let Gabriel do this, Luo Futu suggested that he should not tell the truth, and he had already thought that telling the truth would be unacceptable to ordinary people, and Zhou Yan could also conceal it, and could use it as a “body-strengthening” agent to receive ordinary people. But he couldn’t get past his own psychological hurdle…

Gabriel was not a very pedantic person, and after spending so much time with Zhou Yan. He was used to the novel ideas that come out of him from time to time, although he still thinks that the approach he mentioned was very strange, Gabriel still chose to believe. What he didn’t expect was that he and Luo Futu would agree surprisingly on how to implement this approach.

“I can accept this experiment, but the people inside the mine may not accept it. Gee, it’s a pain in the ass to think about, explaining to them one by one… It’s a waste of time, just hook them up.”

Zhou Yan subconsciously shook his head, “Will this be bad…”

Gabriel didn’t really understand, “What’s wrong with that? It’s not like we’re doing anything harmful, we’re giving them the transplant so they can successfully master the mecha and become as powerful as Mystic.”

… The people who received the transplant did not necessarily think so.

Gabriel raised his eyebrows, and his already arrogant face looked even more noble, “If you can become a hero just by transplanting, why refuse something so easy and pleasant? Anyway, I wouldn’t have refused if I were you.”

“Hehe.” Luo Futu standing by the window suddenly gave a light laugh. Zhou Yan looked towards him and saw Luo Futu looking at Gabriel, “I didn’t think you could say such things, it’s not so stupid.”

Gabriel directly rolled his eyes at him, Luo Futu then walked from the window to Zhou Yan’s side, reached out and put his arm around him “The person here is not the same as the ‘people’ you know, they are the best at taking good intentions as wolf hearts and dogs. In other words, the ignorant are not qualified to know the truth, so you should accept this reality earlier.”

Luo Futu’s expression was not subtle, but it also hid a mystery, only Zhou Yan could understand his subtext – people on Zedoary Continent were not the same as people on Dense Cloud Planet, they reject anything that seems weird, even if this was the way to save their lives. It was still deeply ingrained in their minds, they find this thing weird and refuse to accept it.

Gabriel was so confused, “What are you talking about?”

The fact that the two of them were in the same room was a big deal.

Gabriel stood up sharply, “Ah! I’m so annoyed! Is there anything else? If not, I’m leaving!”

Zhou Yan was silent for a long time and finally looked up when he heard Gabriel’s voice, “You guys have a point, but I can’t lie…. Gabriel, I’ve already made the cells that can be transplanted into a needle, I just need to inject them from the location of their glands, please go do this.”

Gabriel naturally agreed, “It’s a piece of cake, I promise.”

After Gabriel got the medicine that Zhou Yan gave him, he was about to leave, but Zhou Yan was still unsure. He stood up subconsciously, “Ugh! Actually… I suggest you tell the truth… This is after all the equivalent of a clinical trial, to get volunteers ah…”

Zhou Yan didn’t finish his sentence, Gabriel had already left the place with a rash response, Luo Futu gave him a hand and laughed, “It’s decided, there’s nothing to dwell on.”

“…”

Yeah, it’s decided, and he looks indecisive when he says he’s not sure….Zhou Yan understood that this was the best way to go.

“Let’s go, go eat.”

“You still need to eat?”

Luo Futu reached out and squeezed his jaw, “If you made it I definitely want to eat.”

Zhou Yan didn’t say anything, but in his heart he thought, “He still feels guilty. How could he be in the mood to cook, and the food would definitely not be good. He didn’t know if it was because of the loss of heart. Zhou Yan slept restlessly that night and had a nightmare, but the dream was so bizarre that he couldn’t tell what he had dreamed about.

Anyway, it was not pleasant.

So when Zhou Yan woke up in the middle of the night, he wanted to get up and drink water, but found Luo Futu lying next to him who seemed a little off.

–This guy didn’t seem to be sleeping at all.

Mystics not sleeping was not a rare scene, Zhou Yan had seen it before, but it was a little unusual today. He did not go to the bed to pretend to look at the moon, nor did he take a jug of wine out to drink himself, but just lay on the bed with his eyes open, as if he was staring at the ceiling.

Zhou Yan was puzzled and leaned over to look at him, Luo Futu’s eyes looked over at once and met with Zhou Yan. In that moment of eye contact, Zhou Yan perceived that Luo Futu’s eyes were very fierce.

…They were completely different from his usual self.

Zhou Yan was shocked, but when he looked again, Luo Futu had changed back to his usual appearance, with a smile at the corner of his mouth and reached out to take him into his arms, then turned over and pressed Zhou Yan’s head against his heart, “What’s wrong? You can’t sleep?”

Zhou Yan frowned and said after a moment of silence, “Is your curse coming on?”

Luo Futu’s voice was half-hearted, saying, “No, I’m fine.”

–But that momentary glance should not be an illusion, that look full of caution and killing intent he had never seen before…

Zhou Yan pushed Luo Futu away and got up to get dressed, “Let’s get out of here.”

Luo Futu didn’t move, but Zhou Yan cleaned himself up and packed some necessities. He looked back at Luo Futu, who was sitting on the edge of the bed looking at him. Zhou Yan turned on the light and realized he was much paler than usual, he subconsciously frowned, “Wait for me in the room, I’ll drive the A1 over… You should have told me earlier, why hang on if you don’t feel well?”

Luo Futu took a deep breath, “No need to take such trouble, I can still suppress it.”

“But you can’t risk it, there are so many miners in the mine, who can control you when you go crazy? What if you hurt someone?”

Zhou Yan’s words were very direct, Luo Futu’s body curse vaguely showed signs of loosening, the pain made him a little impatient, “Then you do not come near me, I am afraid of hurting you.”

Zhou Yan gave him a sideways glance and slightly hooked his lips, “You won’t.”

“…” Luo Futu’s irritable mood miraculously calmed down after hearing Zhou Yan’s words. He was afraid that Zhou Yan would become violent and cruel when he found out that his curse was active, and that he would even kill people indiscriminately. Even if he didn’t lose control like that now, Zhou Yan may inevitably have a psychological shadow over him and worry that he would be harmed. Luo Futu would not do anything to Zhou Yan, but he was also afraid that this was only his own wishful thinking.

But now he knew that Zhou Yan trusted him so much that he didn’t even need to make any promises to him.

Luo Futu stood up and walked over to Zhou Yan, reaching out his hand to him, and Zhou Yan took him by the hand this time, as he wanted, “Wait for me, I’ll go drive the mecha over.”

Luo Futu also no longer acted strong. He leaned on the edge of the table to Zhou Yan nodded, and then reluctantly let go of his hand. Luo Futu was not used to exposing his weaknesses, not only because he was afraid of being killed when he was weak, but more importantly… Four hundred years of idol baggage made him reluctant to expose his powerlessness no matter when.

But in front of Zhou Yan, it seemed that he could also rely on him a little.

The silver mecha landed in front of the window, obviously so heavy and huge, but Zhou Yan was able to control it very lightly, landing softly without even raising a bit of dust. Luo Futu saw Zhou Yan open the mecha hatch and waved at him, “Come on.”

Luo Futu could not help but curl his lips and walk towards him – only him.
