Chapter 533 - - 475 Deceive the Eye_3

—————✧✧✧✧—————

“That was just for temporary healing, what ability could a blade of grass give me?” Fan Lie chuckled, reaching out and a sprig of green grass sprouted from the palm of his hand.

At the moment when the grass appeared, his pupils shuddered violently, then returned to normal as he retracted the grass back into his body, shaking his head, “No special ability, just a worthless blade of grass, not as useful as a machine gun.”

“What skill did you awaken?” Duge caught his micro-expression and smiled, “Won’t you check your panel?”

“Boss, the skills awakening panel would be flashy…” Fan Lie shook his head.

“Fan Lie, do you know what the premise of cooperation is?” Duge glanced at his head and said, “It’s honesty. If even honesty is too much to ask for, it’s hard for me to believe that you will help me keep my identity a secret!”

Honesty my ass!

You’ve pried into all my secrets, and I still don’t even know your keywords…

Fan Lie muttered to himself and obediently opened his personal panel; the moment he saw the new skill, he was stunned once again.

“What skill?” Duge asked.

“Photosynthesis.” Fan Lie said, “From now on, I don’t need food, just drink some water and bask in the sun then…”

Bang!

Duge did not hesitate to kick him away.

Before he hit the ground, Duge kicked him back into the air, preventing him from touching anything to heal his injuries.

“Boss, what did I do again?” Sensing the threat of death, Fan Lie was both shocked and fearful.

“Fan Lie, I’m teaching you what honesty means. If the skill you spoke of is fake, then killing you would be justified,” Duge said, “If the skill you mentioned is real, then my team only needs useful people. Two useless skills are better turned into my experience points.”

“Genetic Mutation.” Without waiting for Duge to finish, Fan Lie quickly shouted, “After fusing with other living beings, there’s a certain chance of integrating their genes into my own, causing variations in my body.”

“Make it up again, go on.” Duge didn’t stop his feet, continuing to kick Fan Lie like a shuttlecock.

“Boss, it’s true this time.” Fan Lie was on the verge of tears, “Brother Du, please spare my life, I won’t dare anymore.”

“And the first skill?” Duge asked.

“That one was true too,” Fan Lie said, “I couldn’t hide that skill, so I didn’t tell a lie…”

Duge ceased his exercise routine, letting Fan Lie fall to the ground.

Fan Lie struggled to the side of the road, grabbed a handful of grass to merge with himself and heal the injuries Duge had inflicted; he came before Duge, squeezing out a smile and ingratiatingly said, “Boss, I was wrong to entertain any hope of getting away with it…”

“This is the last time,” Duge warned him as he looked at Fan Lie.

“I understand,” Fan Lie grinned, “It won’t happen again.”

“From now on, you will report any new traits you develop from fusing with anything to me immediately,” Duge ordered.

“I understand.” Fan Lie became much more submissive.

Duge looked at Fan Lie and sighed inwardly.

He wasn’t sure whether his approach this time was right or wrong.

The skills of an Alien Warrior were too outrageous, like Fan Lie’s new ability. If left to develop on his own and he fused with the genes of creatures like water bear insects or earthworms, this guy could very well turn himself into an indestructible monster…

No matter when, controlling the situation is always much harder than clearing the field.

Duge’s only reliance was his two keywords. The romantic derivative skills could infinitely enhance his abilities. Getting a few more female bodyguards should be enough to stabilize the situation.

To some extent, the female bodyguards’ skills weren’t much different from his own, so controlling the field shouldn’t pose much of a problem.

As for uncontrollable and dangerous male Alien Warriors, just get rid of them!

Looking at Fan Lie’s pleading face, Duge hesitated for a moment, then pulled out the Masked Hero mask from his pocket, put it on his face, and suddenly kicked him away again.

Fan Lie spat out blood, saying with particular grievance, “Boss, what did I do this time?”

“Nothing, I was just verifying whether you’ve changed your mind,” Duge stopped his assault, pointing to his own mask and asked, “Who hit you this time?”

“…” Fan Lie looked at Duge, awkwardly twisted the corner of his mouth and said with difficulty, “I fell on my own.”

Duge chuckled and put away the Masked Hero mask, patted his shoulder and said, “Fan Lie, honesty is mutual. I wanted to let you know my keyword through this method. Kill One Every Ten Steps is me; the Masked Hero is also me; the assistant captain at the National Defense Bureau is also me, and Lin Hong, the student at Imperial University, is me as well… So, have you guessed my keyword yet?”

“…” Fan Lie looked at Duge, his mouth twitching. At this moment, he did not want to say anything, just wanted to curse.

“Schizophrenia, yes, that’s it,” Duge snapped his fingers, nodding affirmatively as he looked at him, “Now that I know your keyword, and you know mine, we’re even. That means neither of us will tell anyone else’s secrets, right?”

Fuck my life!

No way I believe you have Schizophrenia!

You must have split personality, huh?

Just you wait until I grow up; I’ll surely take you down…

Fan Lie looked at Duge, his heart full of resolve yet his face ever more humble, nodded vigorously, “Rest assured, I will absolutely not reveal any of your information to anyone!”
