Looking at the new member of the Foundation whom he met for the first time, Charles thought for a moment and said, "So, this surgery is a craniotomy? The risk factor must be very high."
"That's right. Although it's a bit of a waste for you to do this, since Plan No. 3 has already begun, there's nothing you can do about it as time is tight."
The information revealed in the other party's words even made Charles forget his current safety. "What did you say?! Plan No. 3 to exterminate the Earthsea humans has already begun?"
"Well, just an hour ago, Plan 3 was officially launched."
After Elena finished speaking, a servant of God hanging upside down from the ceiling jumped down, and its spiral mouthparts, like those of a lamprey, opened slightly, and it gently clasped Charles' head like a meat cover.
As it spun gently, the black hair on Charles' head was shaved off in an instant. Then it pounced on him and spun again, and his scalp suddenly felt cold, and his scalp was gone.
Elena swayed her bloated body to Charles' head and cut his skull with some unknown tool where he couldn't see.
"What exactly is your Plan No. 3?" Charles asked calmly, suppressing his worry.
But even after the sound of skull cutting stopped, there was still no response.
Suddenly, Charles heard Elena's cry in front of his head, "Ugh~!! What's in your head? So disgusting!!"
"Is there any problem in satisfying the curiosity of a dying man?" Charles asked anxiously. He still did not give up on obtaining information.
"If you have a problem, shut up. Seeing the state of your brain, I don't want to talk to you." Then Charles felt something inserted into his brain and began to stir.
The next second, Charles' thinking became unusually slow, as if something had squeezed into his memory, a special emotion at a deeper level that humans could not understand.
Suddenly, many inexplicable images appeared in Charles' mind. He seemed to be standing in a gray area, facing Anna across a mirror. "What is that place?"
Just as he was thinking of this thing, he saw something white appearing and disappearing around him.
Everything around was gradually disappearing, including Elena and the messenger on the ceiling.
Then Charles' eyes became a little confused, "Strange, where did N8 and those envoys go? Why did they leave me here alone?"
Not only Charles was confused, but on the other side of the monitor, the intelligent AI created by the Foundation to replace human observation was also confused. A few words flashed quickly on the 3D screen.
"Retrieval of operating room 2-1, target: N8, result: retrieval failed."
"Retrieval of operating room 2-1, target: N8, result: retrieval failed."
"Retrieval of operating room 2-1, target: N8, result: retrieval failed."
"Retrieve the video content target before 12:13:33; N8 result: video lost."
"Retrieve the video content target before 12:13:33; N8 result: video lost."
"Warning, warning, the current situation is deviating, start self-examination and reasoning."
"Inference 1: PD91AI memory was hacked, video files were deleted, and program logic was modified. Possibility: 2%"
"Inference 2: Item No. 9354 in N8's body is out of control and is teleporting from this timeline. The feasibility is 13%."
"Inference 3: Because the object numbered 9354 in N8 came into contact with the object numbered 3-1 in the body of experiment No. 3, reality distortion occurred. The probability is 81%."
"Transmission started, experimental data transmitted to the central computer, beep! Data transmission paused, 9354 project detected, current position overlaps with experimental subject No. 3, judgment: project 9354 is coupled with project 3-1 in subject No. 3."
"Warning, warning, project coupling, STIE6 level 1 alarm activated."
"Warning, warning, project coupling, STIE6 level 1 alarm activated."
Before Charles could figure out what was going on, a dark red light began to flash in the laboratory. Several pipes broke through the wall and began to inject a sticky cement-like liquid into the room.
Although Charles still didn't know what was going on, he knew that he couldn't just sit there and wait for death. He shook his body desperately, trying to break free.
His tightly bound limbs made it impossible for him to escape.
Seeing that the thing was about to go over the operating table, Charles gritted his teeth and twisted his body hard. With the sound of flesh tearing, his prosthesis was left on the operating table.
Although the prosthesis was broken, Charles at least regained some control of his body. He turned around quickly, stretched his neck, used his tongue and teeth to drag the prosthesis over, and then pulled out the black thorn hidden in the prosthesis.
By the time he used the black thorn to cut all the chains that bound him, the black liquid had already covered his head.
He gritted his teeth, reached out and took off the thing on the back of his neck, and the power that restrained Charles finally disappeared.
The situation outside doesn't seem to be any better. After all, it's all turbid black water. The Foundation seems to want to seal the entire area with that liquid.
Hearing the low alarm and recalling what N8 said before that Plan 3 had already been evacuated, Charles knew he couldn't wait any longer.
Blackthorn quickly drew a humanoid inscription on the ceiling, and as Charles's shadow leaned against it, the swelling of his body began.
He has become more and more proficient in using this ability.
Taking advantage of the last chance, Charles used the black thorn to draw a shining picture on his swollen tentacles. With a flash of white light, his body appeared above the corridor.
Regardless of the task forces and clones running around, Charles kept jumping upwards. If he moved in a high-profile manner, he would soon attract the attention of the Foundation.
By the time he was standing on the sea and running wildly, T6 was already hanging upside down above the rock, approaching him madly.
But as Charles gradually moved away from the Foundation area, the distance he could teleport was getting faster and faster, and T6 could not keep up.
But at this time, without any warning, the swollen body of N8, which should have disappeared, suddenly appeared on the sea, blocking his way. "Why is the memetic infection in my previous clone gone? Is it in yours?"
Charles ignored her and rushed towards her. Just as he was about to hit N8, Pad's huge body burst out of the water with splashing sea water, just like the legendary Poseidon.
His huge palm slapped towards him, and black cracks in space and time followed like a shadow.
Looking at the three powerful giant eyes staring at him, Charles did not hesitate at all and quickly moved away to the other side.
That feeling of awkwardness came back again, and Charles' teleportation power was suppressed a lot. The thing that suppressed Charles' teleportation power seemed to be Pad himself.
"Plan No. 3 has been activated. It's you who rejected our request. You can't escape." The crow head floating in the air said calmly.
Charles, who had turned into a mass of flesh and blood, had no intention of expressing himself. After the white light carried his deformed body and flashed in the air for a few times, his flesh and blood organs suddenly opened up and completely wrapped the crow's head.
The next second, as Pad, who was a hundred meters tall, suddenly raised his hands, the direction of gravity in this area was instantly reversed, and the entire sea water pressed towards Charles with a momentum that no one could stop.
"Boom!!" A whole piece of sea water hit the rock layer heavily like a water hammer. The weight of hundreds of millions of tons pressed the rock layer so that it bulged.
Just as Charles was about to teleport out of the roaring sea water, the gravity around him returned to normal. At this time, the sea water above the dome rolled him towards the dry seabed.
As the most powerful force of the Foundation, Paide's power is infinitely close to that of a real god. This time it is a battle between the Chosen One and a demigod.
Charles just managed to steady himself while tumbling when a large hand full of holes came towards him. It was Pad's hand.
Just as the big hand was about to hit Charles, Charles flashed with white light and his body disappeared on the spot.
Almost like a colleague, the back of Pad's hand suddenly opened up, and the mass of flesh and blood that formed Charles' body rolled out from it, and he directly teleported his body into the other's flesh and blood.
However, Paide's splattered flesh and blood did not fly far. Soon, as if they had their own self-awareness, they stuck to Charles.
With his teleportation ability suppressed, Charles was at a disadvantage. When Pad's burnt body pressed against him, mutual corrosion between the flesh and blood began, and their flesh and blood wanted to eat each other.
As Paide's palm with a hole in it opened slightly, the flesh and blood of his palm, which was as big as a cargo ship, separated and floated towards Charles.
As these things were added, the black flesh and blood on the mass of flesh and blood became more and more, and the red flesh and blood became less and less. Charles was suppressed.
When the mass of flesh and blood turned completely black, everything became quiet. The flesh and blood began to gradually turn into the shape of a palm and floated towards Paide's empty wrist, as if everything was over.
But just as the dark palm with holes was about to connect, a bright yellow eye suddenly opened from the palm and looked towards Paide's three eyes. It was the Eye of Idik.
Flesh and tentacles gradually began to grow on Pad's three giant eyes, and his huge head was being occupied by flesh and blood that did not belong to him.
Things seemed to be starting to get better, and the balance of victory was tilting towards Charles.
Padben wanted to raise his other hand to slap those eyes, but his arm also began to madly grow flesh and blood that did not belong to him.
