Chapter 269 Battle for the Cowl (11)

After Feng Bujue waited for more than three minutes and his hand was completely numb, he showed it to Mr. Freeze like a magician: “Ok, this is the hand that became necrotic because the cells were frozen.” Then he showed the pill on the other hand, “This is a capsule that cures all diseases.”

Although Mr. Freeze was wearing full coverage mechanical armor, he still wore a pair of sunglasses inside his helmet, so Feng Bujue wasn’t able to see his eyes. If he could, he would find that Professor Fries’s eyes were with filled confusion…

“Now, time for the miracle show…” Feng Fang threw the capsule into his mouth and swallowed it.

Mr. Freeze was a senior intellectual and he wasn’t an “insane” villain. When he saw what Feng Bujue did, he couldn’t help but say: “I would like to remind you, Mr. Feng. Whatever you’re theatrics may be, if you can’t prove that you have what I want, then you will have the same fate as those two guys.”

“Look, it has already been restored,” before Mr. Freeze finished his line, Feng Bujue rubbed his hand and dead skin fell off directly. “It’s as good as ever as its ever been,” he shook his fist and moved a few more fingers, “with all free movement.”

Mr. Freeze put down his gun, took a few steps forward, grabbed Feng Bujue’s hand and holding it closer for him to see, “Well, interesting, but there are drugs that can instantly cure this kind of permanent cell damage.” He released Feng Bujue’s hand and said, “But this does not prove the fact that this drug could change my cold-blooded issue,” he paused, “and… treat my wife’s disease.”

“I already said that this medicine can cure all diseases Professor Fries,” Feng Bujue said, “AIDS, Cancer, Leukemia, Huntington’s Disease, etc… whether it is congenital or acquired, gene defects or viral infections, reversible injury or permanent damage… It can all be solved by this one capsule, this drug can even turn the zombies back into humans, there is nothing to doubt.”

“No, everything you just said is doubtful,” Mr. Freeze said, “unless… You give me some samples. Let me study the chemical composition.”

“Excuse me, Professor Fries, but this is impossible.” Feng Bujue replied, “as far as I know, an organization (SCP Foundation) has conducted a large number of experiments, trying to synthesize this drug, but they all ended in failure.” He tried to make up a lie. “Trust me, professor, the organization’s accomplishments in science, and human and material resources… isn’t any lower than yours, or anyone on this planet.”

“Since it can’t be artificially synthesized, where did it come from? God’s gift?” Mr. Freeze asked.

“There are many things in this world that science can’t explain. You can choose not to believe me, professor, but… you have to make a choice” Feng Bujue said, “I have already shown you what this drug can do. Your choices are very simple, believe and accept my help or refuse and give up on this once in a lifetime chance to save your wife.”

He observed every slight change on the other’s face and when he was sure, his tone became stronger, “this kind of gift from God is limited. I can only provide you with two pieces, one for you and one for your wife. Even if you kill me, you won’t get any more.” Feng Bujue laid his bottom line. For him, consuming three pieces of SCP-500 in exchange for benefits was a hard limit. If this wasn’t enough, he would rather give up the opportunity for this cooperation.

Mr. Freeze considered it for a few seconds, his sight under the sunglasses flickered. The most important thing in his life was his wife and he saw what the drug could do. He could not give up such an opportunity.

“I still have a third option.” Mr. Freeze said, “I can just freeze you and take it from you”

“Oh… You won’t do such a reckless move, Professor.” Feng Bujue understood the other side’s intentions. He smiled and said, ” as I have mentioned before, I have a dimensional pocket which surely you haven’t heard of. If you freeze me you won’t be able to get the drug anymore” He glanced at him, “Moreover… You should’ve already realized that I’m not necessarily afraid of death.”

“Oh… You sure are a smart person.” Mr. Freeze smiled: “I like dealing with people like you,” he took two steps to the side, “But I still don’t quite understand why you want to help me.” He turned his head and said, “did you read my story in the tabloids. You want to help me, a supercriminal, do you want me to abandon evil and be good?”

Feng Bujue said, “Both of us know that you have no other choice. I suggest that you think about it now and when your wife wakes up, you can explain what had happened after she was frozen.” He paused for two seconds: “And… even if you could really abandon evil and be good, it isn’t the reason why I’m helping you.”

“Then you just want to make a deal,” Mr. Freeze made an accurate judgment.

“Yes.” Feng Bujue said.

“I have something you are interested in? I don’t think you will ask for money. “

“No, no… that kind of motivation is too vulgar.” Feng Bujue said, “the thing I want from you is already… Oh no, it is about to be scrap iron.” he pointed to Mr. Freeze, “I just want a set of your armor and a few freeze guns.”

“Just these?” asked Mr. Freeze.

“If possible…” Feng Bujue turned around and pointed to King in Shadow and the Bloody Stone trapped in the big ice: “I want you to help me create an explosion that is powerful enough to destroy the entire street to kill them both.”

Mr. Freeze squinted at the ice cubes and stunned for a second: “Are they still alive?”

“Yes.” Feng Bujue replied positively because when he checked the game menu, the name of [King of Shadow] was still [survival] ,”He has a symbiotic relationship with the monster. Although he may become dead in the ice, as long as the monster survives, he’ll be fine, as it is now…” he gestured to the Bloody Stone, “Then… his cells and body can continue to maintain a self-healing state.”

“You mean…When the ice melts, they come out without any damage?” Mr. Freeze continued.

“Yes.” Feng Bujue said, “So, we must create enough damage to destroy both of them at the same time in order to kill them.”

“Haha… this place is useless anyway, it’s ok to blow it up.” Mr. Freeze smiled and promised the request.

At this time, King in Shadow who was sealed in the ice block couldn’t see the two people and could not hear their dialogue because he was being blocked by the Bloody Stone. The only thing he could do was pray that the Bloody Stone can break the ice before Feng Bujue and Mr. Freeze do something.

It was needed to be mention that his tracking indeed relied on summoning. The monster called “Shadow Voice” belonged to the uncombative and high-intelligence summoning, which was the voice that talked to him in the park, also the secret of his tracking abilities.

[Name: Summoning – Shadow Voice]

[Skill card attributes: Active skills, permanent mastery]

[Skill category: Summoning]

[Effect: Summon a shadow voice (no cooling time but can be only used once after entering the scenario. The duration is unlimited with a maximum of 1 shadow voice at the same time)]

[Consumption: 50% spiritual value, one summoning creature (except for the shadow voice)]

[Learning Conditions: Summon Specialization C]

[Remarks: Shadow Voice does not have any combat ability, it is constantly hidden in the shadow of the player. It has an independent personality and high intelligence and can communicate with players. When any other player in the scenario uses a summoning skill, it instantly senses the summoning creature of the opponent and immediately establishes contact with the player’s own shadow (disregarding distance). As long as the contact is not interrupted, the shadow voice can grasp the position of the opponent in real-time. 】

That was how King in Shadow found Feng Bujue. It’s just that all the other players didn’t use summoning skills, so he couldn’t track their position…

However, the tracking effect on Feng Bujue had been unexpectedly lifted. The connection between Shadow Voice and Feng Bujue’s shadow was not displayed in the status bar of the player menu, but in essence, it’s just a De-Buff. With the SCP-500, which can remove all abnormal effects, it was naturally not a problem.

In fact, there were several ways to isolate the connection, such as finding a room with a strong light source on all sides and stay there for a few seconds or by using medical skills.

In addition… Shadow Voice also had a negative hidden attribute. When someone in the scenario summons a level A or stronger creature, Shadow Voice will disappear due to fear… Of course, King in Shadow has not yet encountered this situation, so he still didn’t know about this setting.

[HI, I WANT TO BLOW YOU UP.] Feng Bujue wrote on a sign and walked to the side of the ice to find an angle that could be seen by King in Shadow deliberately.

“Well… is it a demonstration…” King in Shadow thought.

[In the mode of indiscriminate melee, there is no penalty for retreating. You can think about it.] Feng Bujue turned the sign, the line was as above.

After seeing the line, King in Shadow hummed coldly in his heart: “Oh… That’s ridiculous, as if you could kill me.”

After seeing King in Shadow for a few seconds, Feng Bujue still couldn’t see him giving up. He picked up another sign from behind: [People always have fluke mind. I can understand that. Then you shall just wait, hohohohoho :-D】

After showing this line, Feng Bujue turned around and started to set the bomb with Mr. Freeze.

“Hey! This guy even wrote laughing voice and emoji! That’s too arrogant! One can be killed but not humiliated!” Unfortunately, the screaming of King in Shadow could only be buried in his heart, not even a word could be sent out.
