Cook Barn did not dwell on this point. He shifted his gaze and pushed his wheelchair forward.

"You've done well during this period. The Dark Knights and the survivors have joined forces to deal with us. The army has suffered repeated setbacks. The improved potion you developed has helped us a lot..."

As he spoke, Cook Barn came to a wall in the reception room. He stretched out his palm and pressed it against the wall.

"I believe that the Dark Knights cannot stop our rise."

"Click..."

A hidden secret door was opened.

"This place used to be one of the secret research institutes of the Meteorite Company. After the disaster came, I brought it with me to transform this place."

Behind the hidden door was a long main passage.

Cook Barn pushed his wheelchair into the passage.

Fang Heng looked at Ni Shengtao and controlled the Tyrant form to follow him into the passage.


Walking along the long passage, Fang Heng pondered for a moment and tried to ask, "Commander Cook, I heard that you used to be a member of the Dark Knights?"

"Yes, that was a long time ago."

"Why did you leave them?"

"Hehe, of course, to pursue a broader future, young man."

Fang Heng frowned.

"You're a potioneer and you've also successfully improved the warlord potion. I guess you've also studied the divine potion, right?"

"Yes."

Cook Barn seemed to be testing him. He asked, "Then what did you find in the divine potion?"

"Worms."

"Worms... Yes, worms... the mechanism of the divine potion is the worm's body."

As he spoke, he controlled the wheelchair to stop.

He turned his head and faced Fang Heng.

In an instant, his face gradually became distorted.

The skin on his face was slowly squirming...

Under his wrinkled skin and muscles, Fang Heng could clearly see the worm's body squirming faintly.

Distorted and terrifying.

"Creak Creak Creak..."

The worm's body gradually disappeared from his face.

"I was once a member of the Dark Knights. During the process of researching the first-generation meteorite, I was infected by this worm."

"The worm invaded my brain and controlled my body. To prevent the worm's infection from spreading, I chose to self-destruct."

"I didn't expect to miraculously survive after that explosion."

"The strange thing is that the worm life in my body has gradually become quiet."

"I have reached a strange balance with the worm in my body. Sometimes, I can feel its thoughts."

Fang Heng frowned and asked, "What is it thinking?"

A twisted smile appeared on Cook Barn's face. "It offered me an irresistible deal."

Fang Heng looked at Cook Barn suspiciously.

He felt that Cook Barn's brain might have been controlled by the worms.
