Their commission was suspicious.

Only by standing at the top of the pyramid can one achieve true transcendence.

"Ha." Mebius turned and left.

"Wait, technology..." The higher-ups were somewhat surprised by Mebius's abrupt behavior and quickly stopped him.

"Chen Luo, stop wasting time talking to them. Just turn them both into puppets. This guy has a pretty high status, he should be useful." After saying that, Mebius walked out of the office.

The conversation had only lasted a minute and a half.

Half a minute later, Chen Luo walked out with a relaxed and cheerful expression.

That high-ranking official was just an ordinary person; it was the other party's secretary who was slightly more capable, being an extremely outstanding warrior.

Although the opponent's strength may have reached that of Sakura before the fusion surgery, it's all for naught.

An individual's strength is ultimately limited, but not everyone can reach that limit.

Chen Luo didn't want to turn them into puppets, but they said they wanted to kill him.

In fact, the moment those words were spoken, it meant that this high-ranking official with immense power was about to become Chen Luo's number one cannon fodder.

Well, the opponent's strength is only good enough to be cannon fodder.

What good is power? In another world, isn't it just cannon fodder?

"Snake, are you not angry?" Chen Luo asked as they walked down the street.

“Why would I be angry? He’s threatening you,” Mebius said coldly.

"I see..."

"By the way, didn't you say that by using the doll's infinite resurrection ability, given enough time, it would eventually become a fusion warrior, right?" Mebius asked.

“Yes.” Chen Luo didn’t understand why Mebius was suddenly asking this.

"Bring him to the lab in a bit; I'm going to perform a fusion surgery on him." A cold glint flashed in Möbius's eyes.

"Huh? Him? With his weak constitution, even 10 fusion surgeries might not be successful," Chen Luo said, stunned.

The opponent may have a lot of power in the Fire Moth, but their physical abilities are really terrible.

The success rate of fusion surgery for ordinary people who are not soldiers is less than 1 in 10000. Pado's success was purely due to her incredible luck.

“That’s perfect. By the way, don’t block out the patient’s pain during the surgery. I don’t think the patient needs anesthesia anyway,” Möbius continued.

"...Wow, wow, I have to say wow."

Without shielding the other person from pain or administering anesthesia, given their fragile constitution, it would probably take several attempts to have even a slight chance of success.

Most importantly, even with anesthesia, fusion surgery is extremely painful, let alone without any pain relief measures.

Yeah, never make a woman...a girl angry.

That's so brutal!

However, Chen Luo thought it was great.

"Huh? Why are you looking at me like that? You don't think I'm standing up for you, do you?" Mebius mocked, feeling Chen Luo's gaze.

"Huh? Is that so?" Chen Luo, who was focused on having fun and hadn't thought much about it, was taken aback.

“…” Mebius didn’t speak, but his pace quickened as he returned to the laboratory.

"Snake, slow down, wait for me."

"Don't call me Snake," Mebius said disdainfully.

Chapter 421 Survivor of the Sixth Herrscher Incident—Lo

"Wow, Cangxuan, did you see Dr. Mebius's face just now? It looked so dark and ugly."

"Yes, I saw it." Cang Xuan nodded with a solemn expression.

"Senior Sister Klein, what do you think?" Cangxuan Zhishu turned his head and asked.

“I don’t know, but perhaps you can ask him.” Klein shook her head and pointed to Chen Luo, who was walking in behind Mebius.

To be honest, it had been a long time since Klein had seen Mebius's face turn so dark.

Before Mebius underwent fusion surgery to become a fusion warrior, he lacked the power to transcend the three realms and was inevitably subject to the criticism of some brainless investors.

The other person's face wasn't that dark back then; they just had a gloomy expression.

Mebius rarely got angry about these things.

Möbius was most emotionally expressive when she encountered research difficulties.

In this situation, Klein truly couldn't guess the reason.

"Could it be because something happened after he was summoned by a high-ranking member of the Firemoth? According to rumors, the high-ranking member who summoned the Doctor and his team this time is someone whose stance is somewhat opposed to Dr. Mei's," Cang Xuan said.

"Wait, how do you know who invited them?"

"I peeked at Luo while he was checking the information. Cough cough, it was just a fleeting glimpse. Although those high-ups like to use gibberish to show their uniqueness, not all gibberish is the same," said the well-informed Cang Xuan.

"Luo, come here for a second." Danzhu chose to abandon her thinking and took a shortcut.

"What are you doing?" Chen Luo asked curiously when he saw the three people huddled together.

It's perfectly normal for Cangxuan and Danzhu to slack off, but it's really a bit strange that Klein also chose to slack off and chat.

"What exactly happened? Is it related to that case of a failed surgery but a survivor? Why does Möbius look so unwell?" Danzhu immediately bombarded him with three questions.

“This…that’s right.” Chen Luo nodded after thinking for a moment.

"It's all those bastards at the Fire Moth's higher-ups' fault that Möbius is so angry," Chen Luo said indignantly.

Generally speaking, if it weren't for that higher-up ordering Chen Luo and Mebius to go there, the argument wouldn't have happened, Mebius wouldn't have tried to turn the tables on Chen Luo, and he wouldn't be so angry now.

"Hey, what exactly happened? I'm curious. Speaking of which, I wonder if our lab's research funding will be cut?" Danzhu became slightly worried.

But Danzhu thought about it again and realized that since he was just someone who slacked off anyway, it didn't matter where he slacked off, so Danzhu's mood improved again.

After all, if the lab has less research funding, it will do fewer experiments, giving me more time to slack off.

Thinking about it carefully, this is a good thing.

"Well... let's wait and see what the announcement says. Anyway, it shouldn't be long before it comes out." Chen Luo's eyes darted around.

Since Chen Luo hadn't figured out what excuse to come up with, he simply pushed all the work onto the two puppets.

Since these two puppets are the kind of cunning and calculating individuals among the Moths of Flame, they should know the best way to handle this situation.

As a puppeteer, one must know how to use people effectively.

Especially when the other party is absolutely certain to never betray you, you must learn to tap into everyone's potential.

In short, it's laziness.

And there's no reason why I'm too lazy to give one.

"Hey, Luo, how could you do this? We're the closest of the senior and junior disciples in the Fire Moths. What can't you tell us? If an announcement is coming out soon, it means there's definitely no confidentiality agreement or anything like that."

"Emmm, I don't know about anything else, but the only thing I know is that the budget will definitely not be cut." Chen Luo changed the subject.

"Sigh..." Danzhu sighed upon hearing the bad news.

"???" Danzhu Chenluo was puzzled by this expression.

Isn't it a good thing that there are no budget cuts?

"Oh, right, speaking of which, Cangxuan and Danzhu, you two haven't given me my breakfast money yet," Chen Luo suddenly said, seeing that Cangxuan was about to ask more questions.

"...Ahem, Danzhu said she's in charge of the breakfast money, so I'm slipping away first." Upon hearing Chen Luo mention this, Cang Xuan didn't hesitate to trick his sister.

"Huh?!" Danzhu stared blankly at Cangxuan, who had slipped away with unusual speed.

Breakfast money is definitely not a problem, after all, the assistants in the Möbius lab don't earn low salaries, but I've been completely ripped off.

"How much did you spend on breakfast, Luo?" Danzhu asked Chen Luo with a helpless sigh.

Danzhu has made up her mind that no matter how much money Chen Luo asks for, she will give him double it.

"Hey, why would I need money? I'm not interested in money. Besides, bringing breakfast was just something I did on a whim, so don't bother paying me." Chen Luo waved his hand.

Chen Luo's mention of money was meant to shut up the gossipy Cang Xuan.

"How can this be?"

"Danzhu, you tell me how much. Didn't you say you'd pay based on how delicious my breakfast was? How much do you think my breakfast is worth?"

“…Alright, you win.” Danzhu said after a moment of silence.

A simple breakfast was enough for Danzhu to experience the ultimate in deliciousness. If it were to be measured in monetary terms, Danzhu felt she might go bankrupt.

"But you have to accept something in return, right?"

"Well... how about you two clock in for me? Cangxuan can clock in in the morning, and you can clock out in the afternoon," Chen Luo suddenly suggested.

"Huh? Why is it that Cangxuan is in charge of going to work in the morning, while I'm in charge of leaving get off work?" Danzhu said with some dissatisfaction.

"The reason Cangxuan is in charge of work is because I personally witnessed Senior Sister Danzhu being punished by having to copy the laboratory safety rules 100 times for sleeping in, so it's more reliable to leave it to Cangxuan."

"As for leaving get off work... I've never seen anyone more eager to leave than Danzhu. You definitely won't forget to clock out," Chen Luo said.

Cangxuan rushed to work, and Danzhu rushed to leave work.

perfect!

"Ahem." Klein, who was standing next to her, coughed twice.

"Ah, I almost forgot! Senior Sister Klein is the one in charge of keeping track of perfect attendance." Danzhu, who was about to agree to the task, was suddenly startled.

"Why didn't you say so earlier? If you had, we could have discussed it secretly." Chen Luo glanced at Dan Zhu with a reproachful look upon hearing this.

"Oh dear, isn't this because you changed the topic too quickly?" Danzhu said, indicating that she wouldn't take the blame.

"Honestly, you need help even to clock in and out. What are you even doing?" For a moment, Danzhu felt that Chen Luo was even lazier than herself.

"Me? Of course I'm learning from Senior Sister Danzhu's excellent qualities and slacking off," Chen Luo said righteously.

"...Don't talk nonsense. When have I ever slacked off? Have you ever seen someone slacking off fish? Senior Sister Klein is slandering me." Danzhu vehemently denied it.

"Beep beep beep!" Upon hearing this notification sound, Klein took out her communicator.

"Hmm? A super-mutation surgery has suddenly been inserted into our lab's schedule, in just 10 minutes, and it's scheduled to be performed by Möbius and Chen Luo. Strange..." Klein looked at the notification message with some confusion.

Are there still people rushing to their deaths these days?

Klein had two communicators: one was a private communicator, and the other was a public notification communicator for the laboratory.

Klein is usually in charge of things like work schedules, so it's perfectly normal for him to have this communicator; in fact, that's what an assistant should be doing.

Cang Xuan and Dan Zhu, who were in charge of slacking off, and Chen Luo, who was even more of a slacker, were actually from the heretical path.

"Pretty fast, huh?" Chen Luo muttered after hearing Klein's words.

Needless to say, this unlucky guy rushing to his death is that high-ranking official from earlier.

This person certainly has a lot of power; the fact that a surgery was suddenly inserted into a normal, unchangeable schedule is enough to prove the other party's privilege.

But this person was rather unlucky.

As Chen Luo's assistant, after being notified of the laboratory, Klein should have been the one to inform Chen Luo. However, since Chen Luo was right there, there was no need to inform him. After a while, Möbius, who had not been informed by Klein, came out.

The Möbius communicator has very high privileges; it can receive notifications of any changes to the lab's schedule.

"Let's go, get ready." After resting in the lab for a while, Mebius, whose complexion had returned to normal, said expressionlessly to Chen Luo.

"Okay!" Chen Luo readily agreed.

Ten minutes later, Chen Luo and Mebius had completed the pre-event disinfection and sterilization preparations.

And Chen Luo's cannon fodder number one, who used to sit arrogantly behind his desk as a high-ranking member of the Moth Chaser, is now lying obediently on the operating table.

"Master, are you sure you don't want to use anesthesia?"

"Don't call me master, call me sir. What are you, an old man, calling me master?" Chen Luo said irritably.

Chen Luo felt strange being called "master" by a middle-aged man.

"Sir, are you sure you don't want to use anesthesia?"

"Stop with all this nonsense. He who kills will be killed in return, understand?"
