Full-Time Public Enemy-Chapter 730 - 513: Call Daddy (Part 4)
"We don't know either… I've already dismissed all the medical specialists and used an emitter to envelop him. He's already showing very obvious signs of mutation…" the Sixth Energy Level said with difficulty.
Chen Jixian suddenly stood up from the sickbed, rushing inside without regard for anything else.
The Sixth Energy Level quickly tried to stop him, "Your Excellency, we are all Professionals, and you should understand even better that he is not just facing the risk of mutation, but he could also contaminate any Professional who gets close to him—your severe injuries have significantly weakened your resistance to mutation!"
Chen Jixian, as if he hadn't heard a word, pushed past the one blocking him and walked in. Then he saw Chen Gu enclosed inside the emitter.
Outside the emitter, six energy annihilation weapons had been set up, all locked onto Chen Gu!
Inside the emitter, Chen Gu lay on an alloy sickbed with a layer of soft polymer material as a mattress beneath him.
At that moment, his body had already started to twist unnaturally. Fleshy tendrils burst forth from under his clothes, entwining around the sickbed.
These tendrils were multicolored, and the parts of the sickbed they touched also took on the same colors.
Not only was he undergoing mutation, but he was also highly contaminating!
Chen Jixian stood there, dumbfounded, his eyes staring rigidly, his mind a complete blank.
The Sixth Energy Level silently moved to one side and heaved a soft sigh. Qiu Wuben also followed inside. Upon seeing Chen Gu's state, he was too grief-stricken to weep. An undeserved calamity!
Several minutes later, the signs of mutation on Chen Gu, who lay on the sickbed, grew even more severe. More tendrils continuously sprouted, and some had evolved into even thicker, more sinister, snake-like forms.
Chen Jixian suddenly snapped back to his senses. After a moment's thought, he called his daughter and son but didn't share the video. He only said, "Call for Grandpa! Keep calling! Don't say anything else, and don't listen to anything else!"
Chen Zili and Chen Qingyu had grown up by Chen Jixian's side and had a vague idea about the secrets of Professionals; they immediately guessed what might be happening.
Chen Zili was stunned speechless, while Chen Qingyu burst into tears instantly. "Dad, tell me the truth! Is it Grandpa? Did something happen to him? Is it?"
Chen Jixian's eyes blazed as he ordered sharply, "Call Grandpa! Quickly!"
"Grandpa!"
"Grandpa!"
His son and daughter immediately began to shout repeatedly. Chen Jixian adjusted his phone to amplify their voices towards Chen Gu.
The frightful tendrils trembled and actually stopped growing!
The Sixth Energy Level was astounded. It actually worked… He gave Chen Jixian a deep look. Even though it was only a one-way call, two ordinary people facing such terrifying contamination were still at high risk of mutation!
They weren't Professionals; they were far more susceptible to its corrupting influence.
Yet Chen Jixian did not hesitate to do so.
Amidst the continuous calls from his grandchildren, the progression of Chen Gu's mutation was halted. However, after more than half an hour, both children's throats were nearly hoarse from shouting, yet the mutation merely maintained its current state, neither worsening nor improving.
Chen Jixian grew increasingly impatient, pacing anxiously back and forth like a headless fly.
Like a tiger trapped in a cage, he eventually couldn't bear it any longer and rushed to the emitter, roaring, "What will it take? What will it take for you to come back?"
"Huh? Tell me, what does it take?"
The Sixth Energy Level and Qiu Wuben hurriedly rushed forward to pull him back. The emitter's field constrained inwardly, meaning Chen Jixian could easily force his way in from the outside.
If he went in, the consequences were unimaginable.
Chen Jixian struggled vigorously, but severely injured as he was, the two men still managed to pull him back. All strength seemed to drain from Chen Jixian's body. He collapsed to the ground, gazing at Chen Gu, who remained at high risk of mutation. His eyes were unfocused as he mumbled to himself, I know. I know what you really want.
After a while, he finally opened his dry, cracked lips again and softly uttered a single word, "Dad…"
The Sixth Energy Level: "?!"
Qiu Wuben: "?!"
Miraculously, on the sickbed, Chen Gu's tendrils paused for a moment, then began to retract at a speed visible to the naked eye.
