Creepy Pharmacist: All my patients are scary!

Chapter 616: The Final Performance

Decisively abandoning the unpleasant discussion about that idiot topic.

Lynn completed the final stroke on that seal pattern, then opened his eyes and glanced at her, saying, "So if that Doctor 315 uses Leviathan to compete with me for control of these puppets, what should I do?"

Hei Xianyue closed her eyes, using her threads to perceive the internal structure of that puppet.

No one knew how long passed.

She used her threads to mark two points on the puppet's brainstem and spine.

"Here and there. These two nodes are the main input ports connecting this puppet to Leviathan. Carve the same seal pattern you just used on both spots. When I tell you to stop, you stop. Once complete, if anyone tries to connect to this puppet through Leviathan, it will immediately trigger your seal's backlash, likely destroying the neural tissue linked to Leviathan."

Lynn nodded. "Got it, Teacher Hei."

"..."

Then, following Hei Xianyue's guidance, Lynn used the same method to carve the pattern onto the two nodes she had pointed out.

He was very obedient, like a viciously well-behaved student."Stop."

"Don't you need to move it a few more times? I was just getting into it."

"No need."

"..."

Decisively cutting off any attempt to steer the topic into strange territory.

"Is that all it takes?"

Hei Xianyue withdrew her threads from the puppet's body, slowly opened her eyes, turned to look at Lynn, and gave him a sidelong glance. "That's it."

Without any further explanation, her figure once again vanished into invisibility.

Lynn let out a breath, then turned his gaze to the hundreds of puppets throughout the factory, knowing he had his work cut out for him.

But as the saying went, the first time's a novelty, the second time's familiar, and by the third time, it's second nature.

It was all a process of practice making perfect.

In less than half an hour, Lynn had carved the Puppet Mark onto every single puppet.

And just as Miss Puppet had said, it truly was an idiot-proof operation. All he had to do was focus his thoughts on a particular puppet, and an instant connection was established. Whatever he moved, the puppet moved. There was no awkwardness whatsoever.

A sly grin spread across Lynn's face as he strode toward the door.

And next...

He needed a spectacular victory.

One that would send both him and Silver Fantasy straight to the final boss, kicking off this grand decisive battle!

...

In the corridors of Leviathan.

Alice, disguised as Lynn, and Silver Fantasy charged side by side, their blades cutting through every Plague Doctor in their path, leaving rivers of blood in their wake.

"So what you're saying is true?!"

Silver Fantasy raced forward coldly, turning to look at Alice, who was disguised as Lynn with a Plague Doctor mask.

"There's a Plague Doctor who used your identity, trying to sow discord between our Sovereign and Sir Aiwen's alliance?!"

Following the words Lynn had told her, Alice spoke in a hoarse voice, "Yes. I originally tried to infiltrate their ranks to covertly decapitate our target, but the situation changed too quickly. They'd clearly studied me, and my plan failed."

Silver Fantasy's voice turned icy. "You're lying. If that person wasn't you, how could they use the desire strike ability that only you possess?"

Just thinking about that earlier humiliation made her grind her teeth in fury.

Alice rasped, "Miss Intelligence Machine, that ability isn't exclusive to me. Their Desire Bio-armaments have the same capability. According to the intel I gathered, the impostor impersonating me used every Desire Bio-armament across the entire Leviathan, combined them, and launched that strike against you."

"Because they'd already figured out what happened between us underground. They used that very thing to make you believe it was me."

All these convoluted explanations were things Lynn had told her in advance. Alice just needed to recite them.

But Silver Fantasy remained skeptical.

Not because of any reasoning.

But because of a feeling.

Given her understanding of that bastard, every little move he made naturally oozed that twisted, evil vibe.

Just like right now.

Knowing him as she did, there was no way he'd fight side by side with her so seriously. If he hadn't suddenly, "accidentally," "unintentionally" hit her with an M Fist, it would already be an act of immense kindness! Even using the worst possible malice to judge him wouldn't be enough; you'd need to maintain an even greater level of suspicion just to barely keep up with his rhythm.

"Now isn't the time for this!"

Seeing her suspicious gaze, Alice feared she'd reveal herself, and quickly said in a deep voice, "We don't have much time. There's no other choice now. We need to break into the First Chamber before they can react. Otherwise, by the time they mobilize all of Leviathan's resources against us, it'll be too late!"

But just as Alice finished speaking, a mysterious, sinister laughter echoed through the entire corridor they were in.

"Hehehehehe—"

"No, you two, it's already too late. Don't you think?"

The moment those words rang out, Silver Fantasy's expression shifted dramatically. She immediately recognized that voice as the one from the earlier screen, the Lynn who had toyed with her.

She instantly turned to look at the "Lynn" beside her, only to see him stop abruptly as well, lifting his head with a dark expression.

Wasn't it?!

They really weren't the same person?!

And in the next instant, both sides of the corridor they occupied became covered in screens made of mucosal tissue.

And on those screens, the face of the person who looked exactly like Lynn appeared. His face bore an evil, sinister grin. He wore the same monocle, propped his hands in front of him, and his entire face seemed about to burst out of the screen, giving off a wildly chaotic and oppressive feeling.

Lynn smiled at them, sneering, "Miss Intelligence Machine, don't be deceived. I'm the Lynn you've been thinking about day and night. The one beside you is nothing but an impostor. Do you really think, knowing my personality, that I'd set aside our differences and fight side by side with a mechanical bitch who once dropped a nuclear bomb on me? Hmm?"

The moment those words landed, Silver Fantasy's gaze turned ice-cold, killing intent radiating from her.

And Alice immediately understood.

Her brother's plan must have reached its final stage. She needed to keep up with his rhythm, even though she had no idea what he was trying to do.
