Legend of the Cyber Heroes
Chapter 308 - 308 88 Stories and Escape

308: Chapter 88: Stories and Escape 308: Chapter 88: Stories and Escape This is a very cliched story.

The local Scientific Knight is Mr.

Wang Yi Emery, a medical scholar.

Hovernull is his apprentice.

In this name, “Hu” indicates the paternal surname, “Fo” represents the maternal family name, and “null” is the individual’s name.

There are also titles such as “Lay Buddhist Fokong”.

In those days, Lay Buddhist Fokong was also a somewhat promising Official Knight.

But just somewhat promising.

Mr.

Wang Yi Emery also had several Official Knights under him.

Although medical research is now a very niche field, it still had room for a few brilliant individuals.

Here, Lay Buddhist Fokong came from a scientific research family with deep roots; after leading his own group, funding was also guaranteed.

This Official Knight was responsible for some medical technology clinical trials in Delacruz City.

Mr.

Wang Yi Emery mostly adhered to the basic protocols.

He would use Ganges monkeys in the laboratory to develop the technology to a fairly advanced level before applying it clinically.

After Lay Buddhist Fokong took over the group, there were very few medical accidents.

In those days, Lay Buddhist Fokong had a good relationship with the volunteers.

It was said that when knights, disguised, came seeking treatment, he turned a blind eye.

Everything continued until the birth of the Eighth Martial God.

Perhaps it was his attitude that allowed a girl to obtain valuable internet equipment.

After the Eighth Martial God was suppressed, King Aqini conducted a thorough inspection of all memories of Mr.

Hoovernull.

According to records, perhaps Lay Buddhist Fokong was already one foot in the grave.

However, the EMP cleansing tactics deeply offended the Scientific Knight Order.

Several sanctuaries in the Scientific Knight Order targeted King Aqini’s projects at all costs and sought allies within the Protectors to oppose everything about King Aqini’s methods.

In this context, King Aqini did not order the execution of this Official Knight.

He was one of the few among the “partisans” of the Eighth Martial God who managed to escape alive.

After that, no one mentioned the title “Lay Buddhist Fokong” anymore.

In Delacruz City, only a bewildered “Dr.

Hu” remained.

When C.

Shivaji-21 asked about “defensive measures,” Dr.

Hu smiled.

“Decades ago, it seems there were about a dozen people related to her who were judged ‘not deserving of death’.

Now?

Me, Instructor Zheng…

who else?

Everyone else is gone.

Either dead or missing.

I wouldn’t have survived intact all these years if I hadn’t been careful,” Dr.

Hu said, “Over these decades…

do you know how I’ve survived?

Every few years, so-called legitimate descendants of King Aqini come to check on me, to intimidate me.

And also Jianghu people, Green Forest Men…

I encounter them a couple of times each year.”

“It’s only because the Jianghu people regard me as her friend, and the Green Forest Men think killing me would cause too much trouble.

But I still have to prepare for those various types of Composite Truth Serum potions.

After all, I am a Scientific Knight; I must protect my own brain.”

The breathing light of C.

Shivaji-21 flickered twice, “But you just used your protective potion on a knight?”

“How many doses do you think I have on me?”

“This is really interesting.” C.

Shivaji-21 circled around Dr.

Hu twice, “You as a Scientific Knight, are indeed very interesting.” He paused deliberately here, then continued, “I’m beginning to think that you might be the person closest to the truth?”

“You’re asking about the Burrow Dragon issue?

Asking me is useless.

The Burrow Dragon only connects with Heroes.

I’ve always been just a Scientific Knight.” Doctor Hu seemed to be intentionally emphasizing his identity as a “Scientific Knight.”

C.

Shivaji-21 felt that this was probably meant to intimidate him.

Watching this guy’s ridiculous act, C.

Shivaji-21 found it quite amusing.

King Aqini merely thought this minor character was neither here nor there.

Being able to cleanse a continent with an EMP storm triggered by gamma rays, such a person truly felt another must die, then that person definitely must die.

“That’s right,” said C.

Shivaji-21, “but you indeed are a close friend of the Eighth Martial God.

Didn’t you hear any rumors?

Like, about her preparing a reactor or something?”

“Huh?

No?

Didn’t King Aqini already check my prosthetic records?

All my online spaces, all my storage devices…”

“Oh, that sort of thing.

Who knows if you have a memory hard drive buried in the soil?

Transfer some memories to the disk, bury it in the ground, then use the Restoring Enzyme to dilute that segment of memory, cleansing the system’s transfer record using Inner Strength,” C.

Shivaji-21 said, “There are plenty of ways to keep secrets.

You’re a Scientific Knight and also know a bit of Inner Strength, so getting the Restoring Enzyme is plausible, right?”

“Ah, speaking of Restoring Enzyme… Let me think.

It seems there’s still a suspicion on you, about providing the Eighth Martial God with Restoring Enzyme and other resources, right?”

The Inner Strength realm of the Eighth Martial God was not low.

Reaching this level required vast resources—including Restoring Enzyme, Reverse Transcriptase Virus, and artificially synthesized gene segments.

These were resources strictly controlled by the government.

The former was a type of strategic material, while the latter was more unique; the Reverse Transcriptase Virus was a common research tool used by many Orders of Knights focusing on biology, and devices for synthesizing gene segments were not uncommon.

The Eighth Martial God possessed a batch of unclearly sourced Inner Strength cultivation resources, and Lay Buddhist Fokong was a Scientific Knight in the medical field, who also practiced Inner Strength.

Whether it was Reverse Transcriptase Virus, artificially synthesized gene segments, or Restoring Enzyme, he could obtain them.

This also involved an age-old problem within the Scientific Knight Order, namely “resource management.” The power of the Scientific Knight Order was too immense, and its supervision even had to be done by one of the Kings, the Conquest Heavenly King.

However, even the Conquest Heavenly King had difficulty being perfect.

The terminal phase of resource supervision was always a blind end, where after several layers of Scientific Knights and apprentices claimed they had used up the resources, it all depended on the members of the Order’s honor.

“If I had provided her with those things, I would have been killed by King Aqini decades ago.” For some reason, there was a hint of pain in Doctor Hu’s tone, “I shouldn’t have even given her the initial network…”

…………………………………

Borshu stopped in his tracks.

He had finally shaken off the pursuers.

The Life-Chasing Cavalry was terrifying.

He accelerated to two hundred meters per second, yet those guys still clung onto him tightly.

And that was his speed limit.

Any faster would threaten the life of the girl behind him due to airflow and the Fierce Wave alone.

This prosthetic body was specialized for combat, not for carrying passengers.

He couldn’t provide protection for the girl behind him.

Fortunately, after several minutes of pursuit, the Life-Chasing Cavalry suddenly went blank for a moment without any warning.

Borshu seized this opportunity, darting forward as smoothly as possible to escape into the more complex ravine.

Of course, those Life-Chasing Cavalry would definitely catch up.

According to the rules, even if their immediate commander had fallen, these Life-Chasing Cavalry had to complete their mission.

No matter what had happened with Hero, those Life-Chasing Cavalry would definitely catch up again.

He had to be careful to conceal himself.

Borshu no longer skimped on coolant, releasing the scorching steam of coolant from various parts of his body, then immediately moved on.

“Great Hero…” the girl’s voice was still petrified, “Have those people left?

Have we escaped?”

“Those Protectors?

Barely shook them off.

But they will definitely continue to follow us,” Borshu replied, vexed.

Life-Chasing Cavalry were experts in tracking and searching, and mostly consisted of those skilled with lightweight prosthetics, extremely troublesome; once they targeted you, you would either die or need a new prosthetic body.

But…

Where could he go now?

Life-Chasing Cavalry were not allowed to enter cities.

Once inside a city, the chances of being exposed greatly increased.

— Should he go back to seek Sky Fierce?

Borshu’s mind reflexively considered this option.

For Borshu, Sky Fierce Star was like family.

He knew that Sky Fierce would welcome him back at any time.

But, Borshu himself rejected the idea.

His prosthetic body was in terrible condition and likely unable to rush back to the old continent from the wilderness.

And if this girl were to go with him, Sky Fierce would definitely kill her— emotionally, it would be “for Borshu’s sake,” but the real reason would definitely be “Sky Speed abandoned the mission for this woman.”

Perhaps, the best outcome would also be for this girl to show her martial talent and join the stronghold as well.

But…

An idea sprang into Borshu’s mind.

He absolutely did not want this girl to become part of Green Forest.

When he made this decision, Borshu felt an inner pain.

He remembered his childhood, running until his brain was oxygen-deprived, that uncomfortable feeling in his heart.

His current emotions even brought a similar phantom pain.

But, he finally made a decisive break.

He would not bring this girl back to the stronghold.

— This burden, joining the stronghold would do them no good…

Borshu tried to use this logic to calm the turbulence in his mind related to Green Forest.

It seems he had to take her to a nearby city?

Not enter the city himself, then watch her go inside?

But the Houndhawk seemed to want to kill her too; it’s hard to ensure she wouldn’t encounter trouble once inside the city.

So…

teach her a bit of Martial Arts for self-defense?

Yes, I still have some virtual currency; I could let her do some basic Cyberization Transformation in the city…

Should he teach her Inner Strength?

Not teaching her could lead to some trouble.

But if he did, she would inevitably step into Jianghu…

Jianghu…

Ah, Jianghu?

Am I too about to cultivate a Hero?

Borshu’s thoughts grew increasingly fervent.

“Great Hero, where do we go next?”

“To the highlands,” Borshu said excitedly.

“The highlands?

The ‘mountain’?

Great…

I’ve wanted to see the ‘mountain’ for a long time…” the girl said weakly.
