Two Cities, I build mecha in Picheng

Chapter 89 Zach is not a monster
As if sensing the emotions of everyone present, the green liquid in the thickened transparent glass culture tank began to squirm restlessly.

Li Lin glanced hastily, and walked to the middle-aged men and women on the other side.

If I guessed right, they are probably the alchemist couple who adopted Zac in the background story.

Victor had already stopped Jess, so Li Lin had enough time to talk to them.

He politely stretched out his right hand, "May the haze never enter your home. My name is Li Lin, and I'm a craftsman from the Gilaman family... I wonder who you two are?"

The husband and wife looked at each other, and finally the man stepped forward and shook hands in return.

"May the haze not enter your house. My name is Narek, and this is my wife, Sirune. We were originally technicians in an alchemy technology laboratory."

"But we didn't know that our laboratory was funded by Baron Takeda, otherwise we wouldn't be able to work there..." Seemingly afraid that Li Lin might misunderstand something, Silune immediately added.

"Let's not talk about this, let's talk about his problem first." Li Lin pointed to the green liquid in the cultivation tank beside him, "You said...his name is Zach, right?"

He intentionally slowed down his tone, using the personified pronoun "he" to distance himself from the couple.

Of course, the feedback is pretty good.

Seeing that Li Lin was so easy to talk, under the masks, Nalek and Silune looked a lot more relaxed.

"That's right, Zach, he's our child." Silune hurriedly replied.

"Can you tell me a little bit about him?"

Li Lin knew the general background story of Zac in his heart, but he forgot some details, such as he was captured by Takeda.

However, various situations and backgrounds in the real world are different. He needs to understand more carefully whether Zac's character is consistent with the background.

Hearing Li Lin's question, Nalek's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "The thing is like this..."

Zac was first spotted by a group of children playing in the gutter.

They floated around the gutter puddles, only to find that some stones had been thrown back.

After this incident spread, the residents of the trench called this strange puddle the "Anti-Material Pool".

But later, a group of alchemists forcibly removed the liquid from the pool and brought it back to their laboratory.

They performed various experiments on it, and found that the green gelatinous alchemical liquid actually mimicked the mental stimulation they received.

After a large number of targeted experiments, and even deliberately provoking him, many ditch scavengers who had been transformed by alchemy technology were killed.

Most alchemists thought it was just a specific neurological reflex, but Nalek and Cyrune questioned the ethics of the experiment.

After conducting an in-depth investigation, they discovered that the experiment was secretly funded by alchemy baron Takeda Saito, who wanted to create a thug who would obey his orders and would not fear death.

At the same time, they also learned the real name of this project—Zuan Amorphous Combat Body, and the abbreviated homonym is Zac.

Originally, Nalek and Silune were considering how to act, and they just discovered that Zach would not only respond to external stimuli, but sometimes act autonomously.

This further confirms that he is an intelligent and sentient life form, not just a ball of alchemy venom.

But their research team leader thinks otherwise.

After a series of subsequent actions, Nalek and Silune finally couldn't bear the experiment.

Just as they were making a careful and long-term plan to find a suitable time to rescue Zac and release him, it happened that Li Lin led law enforcement officers to destroy Takeda.

It's just that they haven't had time to be happy, and the law enforcement officers quickly seized their alchemy technology laboratory and transported Zach to Piltover University.

They didn't hesitate to spend all their savings to inquire for a long time before they "coincidentally" met Victor in the academy.

As for the two non-Piltover University personnel, Nalek and Sirune, who came in...

Li Lin looked back in the direction of Jess and Victor.

At this time, Jess was furious: "Victor, how could you do this? This is a violation of the academy's regulations! If the academy finds out, you will be expelled!"

Out of the sympathy of fellow Bodhisattvas and Victor's compassion, he specially forged identity cards for Nalek and Sirune to help them get in here.

It's also thanks to the fact that they don't have the alchemy technology augmentation prosthesis on them, otherwise they would be exposed all at once.

"Calm down Jess, they are Zack's parents after all..."

Victor had a helpless expression on his face, obviously he was used to Jace's quarrel.

"Besides, what I did violated the rules of the college. If you secretly studied Hex crystals before and were discovered, wouldn't you be expelled as well?"

Jess opened his mouth wide and was speechless for a moment.

After thinking for a while, he retorted without confidence: "This, this is different... We have achieved results!"

"Why is it different? Without Li Lin's help, you won't be able to get the research results in a short time."

Victor walked slowly to Li Lin, Nalek, and Silune with a cane, "As long as none of us disclose this matter, the academy won't find out."

"Yes, yes, we promise not to tell the story!"

"We're not going to put our benefactor out of work."

Cyruni and Narek pleaded respectively.

Jess was silent for a long time with a gloomy face, and finally looked away, sighed, and waved to them.

"Forget it, let Victor send you out. For his sake, I won't report this matter to the academy...but you can't interfere with our experiment."

"But……"

Silune's face became anxious, but Li Lin interrupted in time: "Jess, I remember you are against human experiments, right?"

"Of course, especially those related to the increase of alchemy technology, that is the obliteration of human free will." He folded his arms and snorted coldly.

"That's right." Li Lin looked back at Nalek and Sirune, "You guys wait here for a while."

Immediately, he went straight to the thickened glass culture tank where Zach was stored, and reached out to operate a few times on the Hex instrument that controlled the culture tank.

Jess suddenly had a bad feeling, "Li Lin, what are you doing?"

He hurried to Li Lin's side to stop the movement of his hand, but it was too late.

With the sound of gas leaking out, the culture tank on the side slowly opened, and the dark green liquid inside slowly flowed to the ground along the edge.

Not only Jess, but even Victor's face changed, "Li Lin! Why did you open the cultivation tank!"

"Are you crazy?!" Jess turned around and scolded angrily.

He moved quickly and wanted to press the emergency button on the test bench, but Li Lin stopped him in time.

"When will you change your bad temper?" Li Lin glared at Jess angrily, then pointed to the green liquid on the ground, "See for yourself."

Jess frowned, and before turning his head, he heard the exclamations of Victor, Nalek, and Selune.

Of course, there was only shock in their tone, without any fear at all.

Not only that, but there was also the sound of gurgling mucus accumulation in the laboratory.

Jess turned his head immediately, his eyes widened, and his face was instantly covered with shock.

There is no alchemy venom piled up on the ground in front of him, it is obviously a monster with a nose and a face, healthy limbs, and an incomparably strong body!

"Do not be afraid……"

I only heard the dark green humanoid creature trying to open the corner of its mouth, as if trying to imitate a human smile, and at the same time continued in a stern voice:

"Zack is no monster."

　Two chapters will be released first, and three chapters will be released in the evening
