Me? The director of the Asylum of All Heavens!

Chapter 43 Dancing with the Devil

"Hey, you old immortal, I'm back!" Harley Quinn took Lin Zizhi back to the alchemist Singed's alchemy workshop.

"Honestly, you need to clean up here. Let me make it clear in advance that cleaning is not within the scope of my assistant's job!"

The ground was littered with dead rats and snakes, and Harley Quinn didn't know where to go in disgust.

"Hahahaha, ahem...you're back! The gunshot you made when you greeted me just now was so annoying."

Singed coughed and sat weakly in the arms of the giant mutated pink salamander.

"It's both a greeting and a warning. It's almost dawn, and it's not easy to keep those who haven't been infected indoors."

Harley Quinn said as she moved closer to Singed and noticed the scars all over his body.

"Did you have a fight with someone? How did it go? Did you win or lose?" Harley Quinn asked playfully, stroking the pink salamander's head.

The pink salamander monitor licked Singed's wounds tenderly, promoting his body's healing process.

"How could I lose to those brainless idiots?" Singed coughed up a mouthful of gleaming blood and stood up.

At this time Lin Zizhi also followed in, and he saw many relics of the Alchemy Baron on the ground.

Scattered on the ground were Laughing Finn's golden jaw prosthesis and gloves, Laughing Rennie's metal nose and air tube, and a piece of Laughing Silver Snake's arm.

It seemed that he was not at a disadvantage even when fighting against three Singeds. In the end, he managed to drive them away even though both sides were injured. Moreover, it seemed that they suffered more miserably.

"Haha, of course I believe you. The laughing virus will not raise your IQ. It will only retain the rational thinking of the past, but the moral core will be replaced by something evil." Harley Quinn pointed out incisively.

'What? Singed is infected?'

Lin Zizhi was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He didn't know if he could still activate the glimmer in his current state, nor did he know why Harley Quinn came to such a dangerous place.

"Hahahahahaha, how did you know I was infected?" Alchemist Singed no longer pretended and laughed loudly.

"Those immortal zombies don't seem to be products of nature. You must have added the Laughter Virus and the Dionysus Factor into the Transformed Glimmer! How many times have I told you! Don't mess with my Otherworldly Potions!" Harley Quinn said angrily.

"I'm just helping you enrich the human experimental data. By the way, you knew I was infected, so how dare you come back?" Singed asked casually.

"I know my laughing patients well, and my moral boundaries are flexible. I can even... fall in love with my laughing patients."

Harley Quinn was not afraid at all. She winked at Singed and walked to the workbench to check the DC world medicines she had left behind.

"We are very similar in this respect. We both believe that love is the antidote to everything."

Singed suddenly laughed.

Lin Zizhi was in a dilemma at the door of the laboratory. He was not like Harley Quinn.

That was a crazy woman who fell in love with the Laughing Bat. In her eyes, Laughing Singed was not a threat at all.

Lin Zizhi had no idea how dangerous the laughing Singed was. His hair stood on end and he was ready to rush out at any moment.

"Mr. Lin, come in. Don't worry, Singed is different from Finn and his group of brainless idiots. He has higher ideals. He wants to save his daughter and is obsessed with the mysteries of biological evolution. There is no conflict of purpose between us and him."

Harley Quinn checked her potions and took out new samples she had collected along the way.

She knew that even if he had not been infected with the Laughing Virus, Singed was still an evil alchemist who would do anything to achieve his goals, and his alchemical experiments on living people had killed countless people.

The process of Vandel being transformed into a werewolf was not gentle at all.

Vander was tormented by such agony that it confused even his mind.

So Harley Quinn knows that Singed's behavior will not change much after being infected with the Laughter Virus. He will still want to resurrect his daughter, but his actions will be a little more evil.

Lin Zizhi also figured it out. The reason why stories involving the laughing virus in the DC world always give people a sense of evil and twisted horror is because the infected characters in the stories are usually positive characters.

In fact, if you put those behaviors of the laughing heroes on any villain, it won't have such a big visual impact. It will only make people feel that he is just another villain with high IQ.

"So are you back to say goodbye? Or would you like to continue to be my assistant? I have some new inspirations recently and I need your help." Singed tried to persuade Harley Quinn to stay.

"Sorry, I'm busy with other things at the moment and may not be able to help you. I'm here to recycle my DC world potion." Harley Quinn said as she packed her potion.

Suddenly, Singed commanded the pink mutant salamander to wrap around Harley Quinn and then opened its bloody mouth to threaten her.

"These potions are very important to my research. Do you think I will let you take them away easily?"

Singed's distorted smile approached Harley Quinn, and Lin Zizhi quickly drew his gun and aimed at Singed.

"If you like, I can leave you a small portion. But I still have to study the antidote for the laughing virus, so I can't leave them all to you." Harley Quinn said nonchalantly.

"Do you think you have the qualifications to bargain?" Singed laughed angrily and let the salamander lick Harley Quinn's face.

"Since I can cross the multiverse from the DC world to here, then I can naturally go to other worlds. Don't you want to get the mysterious potion from other worlds? Or even samples of living organisms from other worlds? There is always some hope for the resurrection problem that cannot be solved in this world in other worlds, right?"

Harley Quinn grinned and bit down on the salamander's tongue.

The salamander didn't expect this woman to be so crazy. She retracted her tongue in pain. Singed waved his hand and asked the salamander to let her go and step back.

"Tell me, what do you want after all this detour?"

Singed has already seen that Harley Quinn has found his weak spot, so she is using negotiation skills with impunity.

First state an impossible condition, then gradually make concessions, so as to reach a cooperation condition that is beneficial to yourself.

But Singed didn't want to play mind games with her, so he asked her directly for her conditions.

"I can leave you a copy of all the medicines from the other world, but you need to help me make the antidote for the Laughing Virus. Even if you can't finish it, you can provide me with new ideas for detoxification regularly. And the most important thing is, don't die easily. You are one of the few living specimens of Laughing Virus that I can communicate with normally. Before I develop an antidote for the Laughing Virus for my little pudding, you will always be my first test subject."

Harley Quinn put forward her own conditions with a smile.

"Hahahahaha! You really have a good plan! Just relying on your empty promise and cutting the dosage of the potion in half, you want me to work for you for nothing? You even want to use me as a guinea pig? Kill you and all the potions will be mine!"

Singed laughed and patted Harley Quinn's shoulder.

"Let me make it clear first. Not half. I can only leave you one tenth of the potion. After all, I have to go to different worlds to experiment with different potion combinations, and the potion consumption is definitely greater than your experiment consumption in a single world. But perfect resurrection is a profound subject. If I help you find a solution in other worlds, there will be more hope if you tinker with it yourself, right?"

"Oh?" Singed raised his eyebrows.

"So? What's your choice? My time is precious!" Harley Quinn asked carelessly, not worrying at all that Singed would refuse.

"make a deal."

Singed was already pissed off, but he agreed anyway.

His desire to resurrect his daughter was undoubtedly going against the will of heaven.

Although he has made some progress in the evolution of creatures in this world, and the potions from other worlds have proven on Zaun's angry beasts that they can break through the shackles of lower-level creatures and make a qualitative leap, he will never miss out on the unknown potions from other worlds.

There will always be some seeds of miracles in countless parallel universes that can help him realize his dream.

Watch as Harley Quinn packs up her potion and picks up the Mad Hatter's top hat.

Singed sighed helplessly, maybe he should find a new assistant.

Maybe I can try to contact Victor. The last time I saw him, he was still seriously ill, and I gave him a portion of Mutant Glimmer.

Now I have a better potion - a Dionysus factor with powerful healing properties.

Singed believes that Viktor will be moved.
