Since We Are Family, We Should Embrace Each Other.
.
Chapter 168. Since we're family, we should hug each other.
When Lin Yu stood before Dr. Mags... well, now I guess I should call him Dr. Magi.
After Lin Yu left Dr. Maki's sight, he immediately turned on his phone and dialed the number he had previously found.
"Hello, Mr. Lin Yu, what's the matter?"
On the other end of the phone, a cold voice asked Lin Yu.
"I remember I just went to your hospital yesterday to retrieve the bodies of Honkai Disease patients, didn't I?"
"Mr. Boron, my contact with you today has nothing to do with this matter."
After gathering his thoughts, Lin Yu spoke to Boron.
"I want to join the Fire Moth— "
"Heh, the Fire Moth' technique requires a very high level of medical skill. I'm sorry, Mr. Lin Yu, your skills..."
"The combat troops."
"... Mr. Lin Yu, I don't have time to listen to your jokes."
On the other end of the phone, Boron, a member of the Fire Moth, frowned slightly as he listened to Lin Yu's unusual words.
"If you develop psychological problems due to treating Honkai Disease, I can personally help you connect with an excellent psychologist."
"But joining the Fire Moth's combat force is no joke."
Outside the illusion, Su nodded immediately after hearing Boron's reminder.
Although Su has lost control of the illusion, everything within the illusion is still relatively normal.
As Su's second mentor, Spaciy's bodyguard, Boron may seem like a cold and aloof person, but he is actually a warm-hearted person beneath his cold exterior.
Over the years, Su had received a lot of care from this bodyguard, and naturally, she would remember him deeply.
Now, in the illusion, Boron, though very impatient with Lin Yu's crazy rants, is still trying to find a way to help Lin Yu.
Mr. Lin Yu, please wake up.
In this illusion, these are not the things you should be doing!
Then, as expected, Su did not see the scene she wanted to see.
"I appreciate Mr. Boron's concern, but if you have time, I would like to meet in person to discuss some matters."
At this moment, Lin Yu, holding the phone, returned to his office and spoke confidently to Boron.
"You and I have known each other for a while now, so you should know that I am not the kind of person who likes to boast."
"... Then, please wait a moment."
Thirty minutes after Boron hung up the phone, Lin Yu saw Boron's impatient figure at the office door.
Sigh, this guy actually actually came, being the bodyguard of the head of the Fifth Science Department the Fire Moth.
What a good person you are, it's just a pity that good people like you don't live long.
"Mr. Lin Yu, my time is really precious."
Boron, who appeared in front of Lin Yu at this moment, took off his sunglasses and said to Lin Yu with a displeased expression.
"You invited me here, so what method do you intend to use to persuade me?"
"Oh, the method is actually quite simple. After all, for a fighter..."
Lin Yu's figure suddenly disappeared from Boron's sight.
Then, when Boron tried to make a move, Lin Yu, who had entered the Mirror Mind mode, had already placed his finger on the back of Boron's head.
"—It would only take a moment to finish the conversation with a punch, right?"
At this moment, Boron, whose head was being pressed against Lin Yu's finger, felt cold sweat suddenly pouring down his body.
In his memory, Lin Yu was clearly just a kind-hearted doctor who worked very hard to treat Honkai Disease.
But now, the actions Lin Yu completed in an instant, and the murderous aura he was emanating from him, were telling Boron that the young doctor in front of him was definitely an outstanding warrior.
Boron's ability to become the Minister of Science's bodyguard suggests that his skills within the Fire Moth are not bad.
Lin Yu, who could subdue Boron in an instant...
Perhaps only the young man who defeated the Seventh Herrscher could rival such a master in hand-to-hand combat without using Honkai Beast Factors.
"Alright, Mr. Boron, please consider my request carefully."
Lin Yu, having lowered his arm, gave Boron a bright smile as he turned around.
"I genuinely want to join the Fire Moth, and I think I'm qualified now, right?"
Even though the young doctor in front of him had put away his murderous aura, Boron still felt a chill emanating from Lin Yu.
"... Please wait a moment, I will have the Ghost Minister write a letter of recommendation for you."
"But Dr. Lin Yu, it's not too late to turn back now. After all, the front line of the fight against the Honkai is hell."
"Hell..."
Hearing Boron's advice, Lin Yu suppressed his murderous aura and the smile on his face, and said to Boron calmly.
"Faced with the threat of Honkai, we humans are already in hell."
"If we want everyone to get out of this hell, everyone should do their best for the future."
Looking at everything in the illusion, Su knew that her test was completely over.
From the moment Lin Yu chose to join the combat forces, he could never follow the same life trajectory as Su.
Su's test was originally intended to guide Lin Yu through the same life as Su in the illusion, and then see if Lin Yu would make a choice.
But now—what the hell? My life has gone completely astray.
What secrets does Mr. Lin Yu still hold?
I have this feeling that in this illusion...
—His skills are still intact.
... Xi...
About two days later, with the recommendation of Boron and Ghost, who replaced Spaciy, Lin Yu successfully entered the combat force of the Fire Moth.
Lin Yu didn't linger in the recruit unit. He went straight in and beat up all the nitpicking recruits and officers who wanted to intimidate him, successfully attracting attention with his negative reputation.
At this moment, Lin Yu could feel that his state of mind had truly undergone a wonderful change within this illusion.
Because the system would occasionally pop up and beep, Lin Yu was constantly sure that he was not in any danger.
Now that he was out of danger, Lin Yu felt as if he had flipped a strange switch, throwing his past ways into another dimension.
Of course, he didn't beat people up because he had nothing better to do.
Besides needing to memorize the feel of combat through fighting, Lin Yu's main goal was to attract the attention of certain warriors.
In this illusion, he is using Su's identity.
Where there is Sue, there will naturally be Kevin.
After seeing the photo of Lin Yu and that 'Kevin,' he naturally knew who the other person was...
"Lin Yu?!"
Standing before Lin Yu, Rita Roseweisse, dressed in Kevin's combat suit, looked at her long-lost friend with surprise.
"Is it really you?"
"Yes, that's right."
Looking at the troublemakers still groaning on the ground, Lin Yu immediately walked calmly toward his 'long-lost' best friend.
"I've come to find you, Rita."
Upon seeing her friend whom she hadn't seen in a long time, Rita wanted to hug him.
However, the thought that her body had been injected with Honkai Beast factors and that she could no longer touch others, and that Rita had not yet gotten used to this change, caused her body to freeze before she even touched Lin Yu.
Rita stopped, but Lin Yu did not.
In the next instant, Rita, the strongest warrior of the Fire Moth, realized that Lin Yu had touched something he shouldn't have.
"Let me go, Lin Yu! If this continues, your body will—"
Rita desperately tried to struggle, but she was worried that her strength would hurt Lin Yu, so Rita couldn't fully exert her power and was unable to break free from Lin Yu's embrace.
At the same time, Lin Yu did indeed feel some pain gradually spreading through his body.
However, just as everyone expected, Lin Yu did not release Rita.
"Rita, I'm relieved to see you're still alive and kicking."
"Although I don't understand what exactly happened to your body, we used to be more like family who lived together than close friends."
"Since we're family, we should hug each other."
"You... idiot!"
After forcefully shoving Lin Yu away, Rita immediately spoke angrily to the other soldiers around her.
"Take this idiot to the infirmary!"
"Oh, there's no need for that."
At this moment, Lin Yu mobilized the magic power within his body and directly performed a Powerful Healing Technique on his body. Under the incredibly astonished gazes of everyone, he instantly healed the frostbite on his body.
"Rita, I came to the Fire Moth not only to see you, but also to fight against the Honkai."
"I am a talented person, it would be a waste of my time to climb up the ranks through normal promotion channels."
After watching these scenes in the illusion, President Su felt that something was wrong with the plot.
From the day Lin Yu began to resolve the Third Honkai Outbreak, Su started to take notice of this talented junior.
According to Su's observation, although Lin Yu has always been an extreme vengeful ghost who is determined to take revenge on the Honkai, his daily life after leaving the battlefield can only be described as moderately extreme.
But now, watching Lin Yu directly beat people up to expose them, and then reveal his trump card on the spot to attract attention, Su felt that Lin Yu's style had completely changed.
To put it bluntly, he felt that Lin Yu was 'more open'.
After losing that subtle restraint, Lin Yu underwent a complete transformation in both temperament and behavior, much like a carp leaping over the dragon gate.
Alas, Mr. Lin Yu, you have no idea that the upper echelons of the Fire Moth are filled with insects that drag humanity down.
While they weren't as terrifying as Mr. Otto and Ms. Cocolia, who could send hundreds of millions of people to heaven with a single sacrifice, their control over the Fire Moth was far too great.
By revealing these powers, you will only...
Only...
Only...
After Su realized this, she suddenly understood why she felt something was off.
Lin Yu's ability to use his own power within the illusion was beyond Su's expectations.
However, the power that Lin Yu can use is not limited to the fighting skills and healing abilities he has developed.
In fact, among Lin Yu's trump cards, fighting skills and healing skills are not his core trump cards.
If, at this moment, a high-ranking member of the Fire Moth were to send someone to assassinate Mr. Lin Yu...
No, really?
Could it be that Mr. Lin Yu intends to do this?
About two months later, with his healing skills and excellent combat experience, Lin Yu had become one of the top warriors in the Fire Moth.
Even though he hadn't undergone the Fusion Warrior transformation surgery, no one dared to underestimate him.
