Faced with their questioning, Thomas remained silent for a long time.
Finally, Thomas said, “Don’t rush to save favonovel.com first. Let’s wait for a while.”
“Why?” Iris did not understand.
“My father is very ill and needs recuperation,” Thomas explained, “If we save favonovel.com in a hurry now, we won’t have the time and energy to take good care of him. Secondly, we’ll have to face the difficulties created by the counterfeit. It’s not good for my father’s recovery. So, it would be better to let the counterfeit take care of my father for us for a period of time. We’ll take the opportunity to come up with a complete rescue plan during this period of time.”
Iris asked, “Will the counterfeit harm Nelson?”
“No,” Thomas said, “My father’s R8zD capabilities are the core power of Sterling Technology. The counterfeit would never allow any harm to come to my father. So, during this period, favonovel.com will definitely try his best to take care of my father. Besides, I’ve given them a prescription and a recipe. I believe that within a week, my father will recover thirty to forty percent capacity. At that time, it is the best time for us to save him.”
In other words, they only had a week to prepare.
Aries frowned slightly and showed two fingers. “There are two troublesome things. First of all, we don’t know the specific address of the Underground City. Secondly, how to deal with the counterfeit and even the Gomes family’s hunt after saving him?”
These two things were indeed quite troublesome.
Thomas did not answer directly. He took out a small box from the medicine box favonovel.com was carrying. When the box was opened, there was a transparent glass jar inside. Through the glass, they could see that there was something like a pupa inside, and there were very colorful flowers inside the box. The pupa grew by sucking the essence of flowers.
“What is this?” Aries could not get it.
“Black magic,” Thomas only said two words, and the faces of Aries and Iris changed.
Black magic?
This kind of thing had only been seen in novels, film, and television dramas. It had never been seen in real life. They did not know why Thomas wanted to use black magic.
Iris asked, “Thomas, are you going to use black magic to deal with the counterfeit?”
Thomas shook his head and explained, “I won’t use black magic to harm people. This black magic is a subsidiary of my ‘Acupuncture Skills’. It is a black magic used to save people. Back then, Stone created ‘Acupuncture Skills’, abandoning sectarian bias. It was based on the Owen family’s medical skills, gathering the best of each family’s specialties. This black magic was also included in the book by Stone. Combining the black magic and acupuncture skills can cure some stubborn diseases.”
Both Aries and Iris could not understand fully. They did not know anything about medicine, so they had a lot of questions at this moment. They did not know Thomas’s intentions at all.
Thomas chuckled and put it as simply as possible, “To put it simply, a black magic worm grows by eating poisonous things, just like the poisonous flower I fed this black magic worm. There are a lot of drug residues in my father’s body, which are extremely poisonous. For humans, it is poison. But for a black magic worm, it. is delicious food!”
“I planted a black magic worm in my father’s body and used the acupuncture skills to guide its eating direction. One week is enough time for that black magic worm to eat the poison in my father’s body.”
Aries understood it. This was fighting poison with poison, right?
The problem was…
“Commander, once the poison is finished eaten, won’t the black magic worm eat human flesh because of hunger?”
“Yes.”
Iris was anxious. “What should we do then? Isn’t this self-defeating and harming Nelson?”
Thomas smiled slightly and pointed to the black magic worm in the glass jar. “So, we need this black magic worm to help.”
He explained, “The one I planted in my father’s body is a female black magic worm, and the one in front of us is a male one. When the two black magic worms have grown to a certain stage, they’ll break out of their cocoons and become butterflies. At that time, in order to find a mate, the male black magic worm will find the location of the female black magic worm through a special method and fly to the side of the female black magic worm.”
Aries was overjoyed when favonovel.com heard it.
“In other words, we only need to follow the male black magic worm and see where favonovel.com flies so that we can clearly know the specific location of the Underground City?!”
Thomas smiled and said, “Correct. This way, the first question you raised will be solved.”
After a pause, favonovel.com continued, “Not only that, after the female black magic worm feels the arrival of the male black magic worm, it will fly out of the human body excitedly and complete the mating. Then, the problem of the female black magic worm eating my father’s flesh and blood will be solved. It would be killing two birds with one stone.”
In other words, this male black magic worm solved the two arduous problems of “finding the Underground City’s address” and “lead the female black magic worm out” at the same time.
This worm was very important!
Iris looked at the black magic worm that was still a pupa. She held favonovel.com hands and said, “Black magic worm, it’s all up to you whether Nelson can survive or be saved!”
Thomas and Aries also looked at the black magic worm at the same time.
Yes, now their hopes were all placed on this black magic.
Aries then asked, “Commander, how do you plan to solve the second problem? After saving him, how to ensure our safety and how to deal with the ensuing manhunt?”
Thomas raised his head, and his eyes showed a trace of determination.
