The Plague Doctors immediately rushed out the door, guarding the only corridor leading directly to the command room and carrying out Lynn's orders to the letter.
Only after they had left did Lynn smile and plop down in the chair. The flesh on his shoulder writhed, healing the wound at a visible speed.
Zuo Zuo was stunned too. "Head! What's going on now?! Aren't you right here? Then who was that guy who showed up and attacked you?!"
Lynn smiled faintly, playing with the chip in his hand, and said:
"Of course I had Alice disguise herself as me. Didn't you notice that Alice has already left my body?"
At those words, Zuo Zuo immediately went (꒪Д꒪).
This...
This...
Smiling, Lynn rested his fingers against his temple and adjusted his Monocle.
"I had to show up and go through all this. Otherwise, it would've been hard to earn that Doctor's trust, let alone trick him into giving me higher clearance. With this little performance, I can't say it's a hundred percent certain, but at least I've genuinely infiltrated Leviathan's upper ranks now. Only with this status can I enter the First Chamber and deal that Doctor a fatal blow."
And most importantly...
He now controlled all of Leviathan's armed forces.
As long as Alice, disguised as him, wasn't caught, his authority would be second only to that Doctor's.
And now that he had seized the highest level of control, how could Alice possibly be caught?
Lynn gave a sly smile, immediately reached up, and snapped the flesh chip into his temple.
