Chapter 1509: Treatment, Eye-Searing, and Truth Serum
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henryee Translations
When the elevator doors opened, the brawny men in Lamarâs bedroom were immensely relieved to see Luke, who was still wearing Lamarâs face.
Nobody dared to barge into Boss Lamarâs room, especially when his right-hand man said that he was out.
Lamar didnât have many rules, but his one rule was that nobody was allowed to barge into his room.
Quite a number of people who had done so had died. Nobody dared to do it again after that.
Now that Lamar had come out of the elevator, they immediately surrounded him and started talking all at once.
At that moment, Luke felt like he was listening to rap in 3D surround sound.
Grimly, he raised a finger. âYou do it. Everybody else, shut up.â The man was Lamarâs right-hand man, and he immediately explained the situation.
Luke nodded as he walked.
In fact, what could happen? It was just that he had gotten the small attack drones to aim at the empty windows and fire more than a hundred times, shattering more than a dozen windows!
No one had been injured. Who knew why these hoodlums were so agitated?
Compared with Lamar, these lackeys were just trash.
Maybe it was because Lamar was too good himself that he could only collect trash? Thinking that, Luke pointed at his right-hand man again as he went upstairs. âIâll leave this to you. Iâll come back tomorrow to investigate.â
The man was at a loss. âHuh?â
What should he do? Investigate what? Take care of the dozen broken windows? The right-hand man didnât understand the meaning of an investigation
But it was clear that Lamar didnât want to say much. He simply told them to get lost and get to work, before he left.
His lackeys looked at each other in bewilderment, but eventually went back to their own business.
In any case, apart from some broken windows, everything was indeed fine. If they persisted in tagging along after the boss, he might ruthlessly smash their heads open with his legendary iron fists.
What they didnât know was that from that moment on, this ruthless Ironfist Lamar would vanish from the world and never appear again.
Luke found a temporary hideout: an abandoned warehouse at a remote dock. After tidying up a bit, he released Phil from Space 2.
Osiris had already examined Philâs right arm, and Luke started to treat it without any delay.
After reconnecting the broken bones in his forearm, he quickly healed them with Elementary Light of Life to get rid of the swelling.
Less than five minutes later, Philâs arm was as good as new.
Then, Luke began to deal with Lamar in Space 2. Using the inventoryâs detection and disassembly function, he first dismantled Lamarâs left leg and left hand.
This process wasnât as bloody as it sounded, because these were extremely sophisticated and high-end mechanical prosthetics.
They didnât look like the soft, lifelike version which stark had given to Misty, but they were more practical.
Mistyâs right arm was mainly for work, while Lamarâs left arm and leg were for
killing
Judging from Lamarâs performance just now, these things were roughly one level lower than the tycoonâs armor.
But this one-level difference in technology shouldnât be underestimated.
Something that was only one level lower than Tonyâs armor in this world was absolutely a top-notch product.
If the American government had this, it would definitely be a treasure.
Of course, it was possible that it really was a product of some national defense vendor.
After dismantling the limbs, Luke threw them into Space 1 to study later. Apart from these mechanical prosthetics, Luke also found a technological system in Lamarâs eyes.
It wouldâve been very hard for anyone else to figure out how the device worked and its effect.
Luke, who had Tonyâs technology and an A.I. program, quickly broke through the systemâs defenses, before throwing it into Space 1 as well.
Very soon, Phil opened his eyes.
He looked around and saw Luke. He was relieved to see the familiar black and white skull.
Big Dipper, one of the members of the Bat Squad, was the superhero who had personally shut the space portal during the Battle of New York. He was trustworthy.
Luke tied Lamar, who was about to wake up, to a stainless steel chair.
He tilted his head and looked at Phil before he asked, âYouâre awake? Do you want to interrogate this guy together?â
Phil subconsciously nodded, then raised his right arm in surprise.
Luke turned around. âAlright, for Bruceâs sake, I wonât charge for saving you this time.â
Phil: âHuh?â
Luke snorted. âBruce gave me a list of names, which included your face. He was probably afraid that I would accidentally injure you.â
Philâs heart skipped a beat, and he was a little embarrassed. âWell, you wonât tell Bruce about today, will you?â
Luke thought for a moment. âAre you talking about crossdressing?
Philâs expression froze. âThis... is just for work.â
Luke nodded. âOkay. Can you use the other model now? Itâll be more comfortable for both of us.â
Phil smiled bitterly and pressed the side of his neck. Two seconds later, his face switched to Model 2, and he turned into a regular middle-aged man.
His muscles also swelled up in the blue flight steward uniform.
Luke glanced at him before immediately looking away. âThere are clothes next to you.â
What an eye-searing image! When Phil walked over in a T-shirt, hoodie, and sweatpants, Luke asked, âDo you have truth serum? Give him some.â âItâs not called truth serum,â Phil explained. âIt just makes a person fall into a trance. What they then say may not necessarily be the truth.â
Luke didnât say anything and simply looked at him with his pitch-black eyes.
Phil: _Fine, Iâll do it.â
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, and the tip of the nanoglove turned into a needle again to inject Lamar with a hallucinogen.
The nanoglove could store several drugs and act as a temporary syringe.
In the bar earlier, Phil had used the sedative in his other glove on Lamar. No thanks to the plot twist, he mightâve broken more than just an arm, and mightâve even lost his life.
After that, Phil said to Luke, âItâll take another five minutes for it to take effect. Letâs wait.â
Luke nodded and gestured for them to talk some distance away.
Phil hadnât had much direct contact with Big Dipper before, but since the latter had just saved him tonight, there was no need to keep a lot of information confidential, and he explained why he was looking for Lamar.
It wasnât complicated.
The tycoon had provided Phil with a program to analyze big data.
With its help, Phil discovered that Lamar had frequently appeared in some SHIELD operations in the last two years.
Although he appeared at sporadic intervals and wasnât necessarily the first party to show up, too many coincidences was no longer a coincidence.
