Interstellar Legend: King of Giants

Chapter 68 Special Visitor - Part [-]

The back of his neck was throbbing with pain, and Owen, who was slowly waking up, couldn't help frowning due to the sore stiffness. He tried to move, only to find that his hands and feet were tightly bound, too tight. As a result, the blood does not circulate, and the hands and feet are cold and numb.

The lights in the room were dim, and only a night light barely allowed Owen to see his situation clearly. He should still be in his own room, and there were occasional sounds of animals next to him, similar to the hissing of wolves or snakes.

He closed his eyes forcefully, his throat was burning and dry, and he coughed twice. Owen remembered that he was attacked from behind and passed out, and when he woke up, he was transferred to the compartment next to his room where the animals were kept. .

Owen laughed softly, twisted his neck and looked at the shadows hidden in the depths around him, his voice hoarse: "Since you're here, why don't you come out?"

There was a slight rubbing sound of clothes in the air, and Owen immediately stared at the source of the sound. Under the dim light, he could only vaguely see a pair of long legs overlapping each other, and the silver buckles on the black leather boots were shaking with the man's movements. Twinkle of light.

The man leaning back on the chair was wearing a dark cloak that melted him into the darkness. The pure white wings that Owen couldn't forget after a glimpse were also covered, and the leather boots that stepped on the ground lightly tapped. There was a rhythmic sound, and the hands in black leather gloves were playing with a silver knife. Most of the face under the hood of the cloak was covered and it was impossible to see what it looked like.

"I never thought that I would be so lucky to see again in my lifetime... such beautiful wings, which come from the blood of the descendants of the gods in myths and legends, and are as powerful and beautiful as angels' pure white wings." The distressed expression quickly turned into surprise and obsession. Owen stared towards the shadow and widened his eyes, as if he wanted to see clearly.

"Again?" The hoarseness was as deep as stones blown by a strong wind in the Gobi beach at night, and the voice was rough and hoarse, extremely unnatural, and it seemed that he had deliberately changed his voice.

This man is hiding his true identity.

"The distant and beautiful planet Clark disappeared more than ten years ago. There are no more Clarks in this world. Are you a survivor?" Owen muttered to himself, his expression excited like a lunatic, " No, Clark is just a legend, not... not everyone can activate the hidden genes in the body, you are a miracle, an amazing miracle!"

"How did Planet Clark disappear?" asked the man in the shadow. He didn't want to waste too much time with Owen. After all, this was Owen's room. Touched it once, but the longer you stay, the more dangerous it becomes.

A dark light flashed in his eyes, and Owen grinned, without rushing to answer Li Junnian's question, he leaned back against the cold wall: "I don't know."

The man emphasized his tone, like a sea of ​​dark clouds surging under the tide before a storm: "Who was the winged person you saw last time?!"

"He's dead, I only saw his body." With deliberate fire in his eyes, Owen was deliberately provoking the other party, and he sighed rather disappointedly, "It's a pity, I still want to cut off his wings to make it The specimen was collected, but he ruined his own wings, the white wings that were as beautiful and powerful as yours were broken to pieces in the end—”

A sharp silver dagger slashed across Owen's cheek and plunged into the wall behind him. A shadow loomed in front of his eyes, and it was hard to breathe when his neck was held hard.

"Where is he?!" With rough anger in his voice, Li Junnian grabbed Owen's neck and lifted him from the ground against the wall. Owen, who was struggling to breathe, suddenly blushed.

The pearls of the wide-eyed eyes almost jumped out of the eye sockets, his face was covered with red and blue veins, and the corners of Owen grinned like a crazy circus clown, hoarse: "You are... the only one ...unique...alone..."

"Tell me, where is he?!" The hand that grabbed Owen was shaking uncontrollably because of the raging anger.

Owen laughed more and more crazily, his bloodshot eyes were instantly stained with scarlet color, and a long and forked tongue like a snake suddenly protruded from his mouth. Li Junnian was startled by the scene in front of him, and instinctively reached out He went to pull out the dagger stuck on the wall, but before his hand touched the dagger, he was thrown on him with a strong force.

Li Junnian flew backwards, his back rubbed against the ground and hit the solid cage with a sharp pain. The wolf locked in the cage howled in shock. Clutching his shoulders, the person in front of him... no, not a person, it should be said to be some kind of creature.

The appearance of the biologist "Owen" is completely gone. The normal skin of human beings has turned into a hard green like a jungle animal, the whites of the eyes are covered with scarlet, and the black pupils have also become small black circles like reptiles. point, he grinned, revealing his sharp teeth, and the tip of his slender tongue stretched out towards Li Junnian's face.

What the hell is this? !

Kicking away the monster in front of him, Li Junnian jumped up immediately, and Owen, who was kicked away, hid in the shadow of the room, giggling, not like a middle-aged scientist, more like A young man's voice.

"Surprised to see me? My angel."

"You're so ugly to me." Leaning his back against the cage, Li Junnian took out a dagger from his waist and held it, staring vigilantly at the direction of the sound ahead. It was a bit unexpected, but it was also an unexpected gain.

As a biologist, Owen is not an ordinary person. What does his chameleon-like appearance have to do with him?

Is it born like this, inspired by the day after tomorrow, or the product of mutation under scientific experiments.

"It would hurt me if you said that."

A dark shadow jumped out and rushed towards Li Junnian. Li Junnian, who had been prepared for a long time, dodged sideways and grabbed the opponent's arm, and stuck the electric shock ball in his hand, and was hit by the current Owen let out a painful wail, and Li Junnian grabbed the opponent's collar and threw him directly over his shoulder to the ground.

"What the hell are you?!" The dagger was attached to the opponent's hard skin that had turned dark again, and Li Junnian saw Owen's appearance clearly through the faint light.

Like a chameleon, the skin on his body slowly changed from black and gray to the green that he had seen just now. Holding his injured arm, Owen, who was lying on the ground, looked at Li Junnian and laughed: "You know you What is it? Of course you don't know, otherwise you wouldn't take the initiative to come to me, right?"

The cloak and hood on his head fell off during the fight just now, and Li Junnian's face was covered by a half mask woven of pure white feathers. From his tightly pursed lips, it could be seen that he was not in a good mood right now. good.

"Chameleon, is it natural, or is it a monster produced in scientific research?" Ignoring Owen's deliberate cliché, the irritable "angel" stepped on Owen's chest and pressed it down hard, relying on the experiments Li Junnian had seen before. For the record, it would not be an exaggeration for him to trample Owen to death.

"Monster? How can you say that I am a monster? My angel, we are the same kind, you can grow feathers and wings to soar the sky, and I can change my shape at will. For humans, we are different, it is necessary The heretics who will be destroyed, they will not allow us to exist in this world, Clark's destruction is the best example."

Turning his head to look at the dagger on his neck, the green Owen softened his tone, even begging for compromise and said: "This is a misunderstanding, the same kind should not kill each other, we should join hands to fight against these dirty This is why I want to meet you, and I will tell you everything about your hometown, Clark, and everything you want to know."

"Why should I believe your words?" Without letting go of Owen, Li Junnian didn't trust the dark green chameleon in front of him.

"Who else can you trust but me?" Owen's eyes showed a bit of complacency. If it wasn't that he couldn't find clues and answers, if he wasn't alone, how could Li Junnian take the initiative to visit?

This feeling of being seen through by others is not good, Li Junnian said without any anxiety in his rough and hoarse voice, "Then tell me."

Owen smiled and said nothing. His green skin began to change back to a human appearance from top to bottom at a speed visible to the naked eye, but he was no longer the middle-aged biologist Li Junnian remembered.

An unexpected appearance, the appearance of a man he had seen in Li Junnian's dream, appeared in front of him without warning.

"You..." Li Junnian was stunned for a moment, and at this moment, Owen caught the opening, and the long nails on the fingers of his right hand suddenly pierced into Li Junnian's calf. A venom is burning.

Cold sweat broke out immediately under the severe pain. Li Junnian gritted his teeth and stabbed Owen with the dagger.

Damn, there are narcotic effects.

The things in front of him instantly became blurred and distorted. Li Junnian staggered back and forth and leaned against the cage behind him. His whole calf was completely numb and lost consciousness. The toxin eroded his body at a terrifying speed along with the blood flow. Her lips quickly turned a rich wine red.
