Chapter 564: Chapter 558: Combat Race
Though Flynn Lewis spoke softly, his tone was firm. More importantly, Finn knew far more than Emma Lewis did. He even had a foreboding sense that he might leave Earth one day. At least he wouldnât take blows lying down. He didnât know why that insane alien wanted to kill him, but if it planned to, it had better be prepared to be killed.
Emma Lewis stiffened slightly, then suddenly sat up straight in Finnâs lap, turning to straddle his legs. It was only then that Finn noticed her face was streaked with tears. Grinding her teeth, Emma, her eyes streaming, spoke harshly, âI donât care if your wife at home can satisfy you or not, but since youâre here, you need to pay the public grain to me.â
As she spoke, Emma Lewis undid Finnâs belt, and before he could react, her head was already moving down.
Hugging the now sleeping Emma, Finn rubbed his head, unsure how to explain his situation to Kay Lee. For now, he could only carry on as he was. Having made up his mind, he couldnât ignore Emma anymore.
He looked down at Emma, still clutching onto him in her sleep, and closed his eyes, falling asleep. However, Finn wasnât asleep for long. After about two or three hours, a unique sensation invaded his brain, bombarding his sleeping mind with countless pieces of information. Ven quickly opened his eyes. A familiar sensation surged into his mind, much like he could sense a part of his body thousands of kilometers away.
Then fleetingly, Finn understood what is happening; the worker bee modification was complete.
âOlivia Thatcher, has the insect speciesâ and worker beeâs modification been completed?â Finn asked directly.
âYes, sir. How did you know?â Olivia Thatcher replied, somewhat puzzled, âI have just received the news. I was about to inform you, sir. How did you know already?â
âI felt it. I can even command the worker bee to do things if I want to,â Finn muttered, struggling to describe the sensation in his mind.
âSir, the worker bee has changed a lot. Are you sure thereâs no problem with it?â Henry asked worriedly.
âRelax, it wonât harm me.â Finn shook his head. Donât ask him how he knew; he just did.
With Finnâs conviction, Henry didnât persist, but followed Finn in. Once Henry brought Finn to the room where the worker bee was located, he was taken aback. It had changed drastically. It used to be roughly the size of a jeep, but now its body was almost as large as a two-story villa. Its appearance had become strange too. Its body didnât change much, but its head was much larger, disproportionate to the rest of its body.
âZero, what happened? You didnât break it, did you?â Finn anxiously asked. This worker bee was his trump card. If Zero messed it up, Finn would have nowhere to cry. He couldnât find another one anywhere. Heâd only traveled to the six-dimensional space once, smashing the time-space beacon on the way. That trip had cost 1 million points, all for this creature.
âNo, it isnât broken. During the modulation process, its genes started recovering. Itâs their speciesâ genetic map which is awakening. I havenât collected additional fees from you yet. The consumed energy far exceeds the cost I asked for, are you going to compensate me this part of the expense?â Zeroâs voice resounded.
âUh, heh, never mind that. Can you tell me why it changed like this?â Finn indicated the worker bee, which had been quietly lying there since he entered.
âYou donât know?â Zero asked.
Finn retorted, puzzled, âShould I?â
âYou should.â Zeroâs reply was swift.
Finn paused, coming to an understanding, then ceased questioning Zero and approached the worker bee directly. When he stood in front of it, he sensed a faint mix of reverence, familiarity, and fanaticism towards him, as though an overly devoted believer regarded their deity.
