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 wouldn’t take blows lying down. He didn’t 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 Finn’s 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, “I don’t care if your wife at home can satisfy you or not, but since you’re here, you need to pay the public grain to me.”

As she spoke, Emma Lewis undid Finn’s 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 couldn’t ignore Emma anymore.

He looked down at Emma, still clutching onto him in her sleep, and closed his eyes, falling asleep. However, Finn wasn’t 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.

“Olivia Thatcher, has the insect species’ and worker bee’s modification been completed?” Finn asked directly.

“Yes, sir. How did you know?” Olivia Thatcher replied, somewhat puzzled, “I have just received the news. I was about to inform you, sir. How did you know already?”

“I felt it. I can even command the worker bee to do things if I want to,” Finn muttered, struggling to describe the sensation in his mind.

“I don’t understand, but it seems like it is due to psychomagnetic field sensing. This is the advantage of biotechnology; it may be mysterious and unexplainable by science, but it is incomprehensible to mechanical civilization.” Olivia chimed in.

“I need to go there,” Finn answered simply, having an odd sensation like the worker bee was calling out to him.

“Yes, sir, I’ll arrange it immediately.”

“Take the Thunderhawk plane and have the substitute fly to Proudshire tomorrow.” Finn thought for a moment. He couldn’t wait that long. At the moment, Finn’s heart was filled with anticipation, because this power truly belonged to him. Most importantly, he knew an advanced insect species posed a threat to the whole universe, which was why Zero spoke to him with such unprecedented severity.

“Understood.” Olivia concurred and began making arrangements.

Finn gently tapped on Emma’s shoulder, waking her, “Time to get up.”

Still groggy, Emma opened her eyes, “Something happened? You have to leave?” Seeing Finn dressed, she understood at once.

“Yes, I was planning to leave tomorrow, but I received a call. There’s an emergency I need to handle now, so I have to head to the airport,” Finn softly explained.

“Go ahead. Be careful wherever you are going. And remember, you’re not alone. Me, your wife at home, Uncle, Aunt, and a host of others.” Emma paused before adding with a laugh.

“I know.” Finn nodded, undramatic. He would be back again.

“Sir,” when Finn got underground to the secret base, Henry Lewis was already waiting. “Hmm, show me the worker bee.” Finn bluntly requested.

“Sir, the worker bee has changed a lot. Are you sure there’s no problem with it?” Henry asked worriedly.

“Relax, it won’t harm me.” Finn shook his head. Don’t ask him how he knew; he just did.

With Finn’s conviction, Henry didn’t 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 didn’t change much, but its head was much larger, disproportionate to the rest of its body.

“Zero, what happened? You didn’t break it, did you?” Finn anxiously asked. This worker bee was his trump card. If Zero messed it up, Finn would have nowhere to cry. He couldn’t find another one anywhere. He’d 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.

“No, it isn’t broken. During the modulation process, its genes started recovering. It’s their species’ genetic map which is awakening. I haven’t 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?” Zero’s voice resounded.

“Uh, heh, never mind that. Can you tell me why it changed like this?” Finn indicated the worker bee, which had been quietly lying there since he entered.

“You don’t know?” Zero asked.

Finn retorted, puzzled, “Should I?”

“You should.” Zero’s 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.
