Chapter 33
"No--! Let me go! Who are you !?"
The monster was roaring, but while it was huge, it couldnt get away. It was at the mercy of these tiny humans.
"Shut up! You monster!" The thug leader smacked the beast with the whip in his hand, and sneered with satisfaction when he heard the monster's scream, "I didn't expect to come across something like this in the slums. This thing, look at the ugliness! God bless! Maybe we can use it as a punching bag! "
Other thugs also showed cruel smiles that only belonged to ruthless predators.
"What are you doing? Have you ever asked me for permission to mess with my servant?" A thin man with dark blond hair greasily scattered behind his head came around the corner.
The thugs looked at his alchemist's robe and the noble temperament of his body, and immediately bowed their heads respectfully.
The leader of the gang was very wise, naturally not daring to offend this superior-looking person of unknown background.
They were just thugs doing things for the circus. For members of the aristocracy, it easy to have them pinched to death. Even if there was someone behind the circus backing them, it was useless to rely on it.
"My lord, I am very sorry, but just seeing this monster is incredibly scary, were tying it up in the publics interest ..."
"And just look at the huge body and nasty face of this monster! This servant is really not worthy of you!"
The master of the gang saw that the man was disgusted with the monster's face, and filled with craftiness, he said slyly: "Sir, let us buy it for the Roya Circus! Then us adults can just buy a beautiful maid ..."
The thug leader took out a thick money bag and put it in the man's hand.
The man weighed it with satisfaction, and said, "OK! Take it away! I didnt want it!"
"Yes! Thank you for your business!"
The monster was dragged away, and the hope in his eyes turned into despair and confusion.
Dont! Father! Why are you abandoning me! Father!
From Cthulhus Wrath
"This lord, is this ... really your brother?" The leader of the gang was suspicious.
Zhou Yu's expression was very calm, and his tone was very certain: "What? We dont look alike? Franken, tell him, aren't you my brother?"
A certain monsters face burst out in admiration..
"Father ... Father ...!"
Everyone: "..."
Zhou Yu frowned and reprimanded coldly, "Not letting go of him yet? Didn't you see that there was a problem with his mind? However, even then, my brother is not your property! If you don't let go, then I might have to go talk to the Archon about illegal operations in your circus! "
The thug leader who was still hesitant immediately panicked and begged: "No, no, no! Compassionate Lord, please forgive us! It is because we had no idea about your relationship and hurt your younger brother!" If the boss knew that it was because of him that the circus was complained to by a nobleman, he would definitely make him a welcome drum at the door! (S: beat him up maybe?)
"Hurry up!" The thug leader yelled in anger, looking at the dumbfounded little brothers behind him.
Although they didnt know what family the man was from, they couldnt afford to offend him.
He became the gang leader by virtue of his wits and cautiousness, and this situation called on his brain.
Getting on a nobles bad side for a stupid, ugly monster, he wouldnt do it.
The monster ran to Zhou Yu immediately after being released, with grievance and fear in his eyes.
He had to say seeing such emotions showing in a huge, malformed body made him tear up.
Zhou Yu blinked, looked away, and spoke to the thugs: "Count your blessings, it's best not to let me find out that you are kidnapping my younger brother again! This time Im in a good mood, but if this happens again, I will let you know the price of offending the nobility!" Although he was not a noble at the moment, it was okay to pretend. The alchemists are nothing in the eyes of real nobles, but in the eyes of civilians, he was one of them.
The thugs apologized again and again, lowering their heads to the ground, looking humble.
This made Zhou Yu deeply appreciate the high status of this world's nobility. However, if an unknown aristocrat could make men as strong and tall as these ones humble themselves to such an extent, this distinct class division may be corrupt.
No longer paying attention to these people, Zhou Yu turned and left.
Looking at the monster Franken who consciously followed from behind, Zhou Yu was a little emotional.
This scene of heroes saving the beauty reminded him of his first encounter with Feng Xing in his last life.
Thinking of the cute Feng Xing that was silent and shy at the time, Zhou Yu smiled, and was more gentle towards the monster in front of him.
"Let's go home, and dont run away again!"
This had obviously happened because this newborn being was full of curiosity and wandered around so much that he almost became a plaything for others.
"Okay, my father." Franken responded.
Zhou Yu felt helpless.
"Don't call me father, call me brother!"
"But ... father is father!"
Zhou Yu looked at Franken with frustrated eyes, and gave up correcting the address.
Forget it, go back and talk, it's getting late.
On the way back, although there were some stragglers on a street corner, he didnt know if Franken s size shocked them or Zhou Yu s aristocratic bearing made them afraid. They did not provoke them and Zhou Yu returned smoothly to the house.
But unfortunately, the disaster began when they returned home.
Franken's huge body was stuck in the door frame. Zhou Yu couldnt figure out how he got out of the house, and anyway, he had to waste a lot of energy when he came in. In the end, Franken had to remove the door frame to get in.
Zhou Yu looked at Franken, who was curled up in the living room in fear, then reluctantly picked up the frame that had been removed from the floor, and went to the laboratory to get some tools to fix the door with.
After a long while, Zhou Yu finally secured the door with the help of the originals memory. After everything was installed, he looked at the tools in his hand and smiled bitterly. Apparently, alchemy was also good for renovations.
The western alchemists of his previous lives were actually just chemists. There was no real magic, but in this world, they could really create magical creations to some extent.
For example, the steam-powered robot, or Franken.
Zhou Yu walked to Franken, who was lying on the rug in the living room, saw the admiration and innocence in his eyes, and could not help sighing in his heart. Alchemy really was a practice that touched upon the veil between life and death.
Even in his past life, no matter how advanced the technology was, no one dared to touch the restricted area of creating life. They werent technically incapable, but social ethics did not allow them to do so.
No one knew whether or not the children born through experiments were considered human, but the original owner had very easily brought Franken to existence, a monster similar to humans but different.
Beings such as Franken possessed human consciousness, but could never have the status of real human beings.
Because human beings were scared of nonconformity at all times, any weirdness would get someone deemed a monster, unless the monster was incredibly powerful.
Just like the casters that lauded over the aristocracy. They were different from ordinary humans, but their powerful nature allowed them to cross over this societal boundary and become greatly respected by everyone.
"Come with me and clean up the guest room over there. You will sleep there tonight." Zhou Yu rubbed his temples and took Franken to a room by the first floor stairs.
This was a vacant room with a wide door that Franken could easily move through, but the room was bare save for a single bed.
The bed in this room had been there since the landlord had rented the building to the original owner. Cariell was too lazy to buy other furniture and didn't live here. He simply locked the room and never went in.
Therefore, Zhou Yu took in a mouthful of dust as soon as he opened the door, coughing for a while before easing inside.
He had been busy from the moment he woke up until now, and his psyche was a bit overwhelmed.
"Wipe the bed down, you will live here in the future." Zhou Yu threw a cloth to Franken, then exited the room with an exhausted expression and lay down on a chaise lounge by the fireplace in the living room.
"Okay father!" Franken watched his creator walk away, and with a stern face, picked up the largest rag that Zhou Yu had found solely to prepare the beds.
However, this large piece of fabric was still tiny to him.
His hands were not like a normal humans, with sharp talons that had no dexterity. The cloth didnt last for long.
Rii-iiiiii-chp
The sound of tearing was particularly harsh in this empty room.
Franken was so frightened that he put the cloth back in its place, shivering in the corner of the room.
He had already been frightened by the circus thugs, and he could feel that his creator didn't seem to like him very much. Now he did something wrong, and he was afraid he would be kicked out.
In that case, he would become a poor, homeless worm.
The giant monster couldn't help crying when he thought of the tragic possibility.
He had a giant body but had no corresponding wisdom or strength, and it was for this reason that he could be so easily manipulated by weak humans.
Zhou Yu lay down on the lounge and gradually fell asleep. In the dream, he faintly heard someone whispering in his ear. Those vague murmurs were like enchantments, and it was so noisy that he became restless.
He opened his eyes, trying to dispel the haunting whispers, darkness filling his vision.
He wanted to shout, but found that he was deep in the ocean, some bubbles leaving his mouth in shock.
The darkness in front of him seemed to never dissipate, and he could only feel the icy water pressing against his thin body, bringing a chill.
Why was he here? He remembered resting in the living room.
He opened his mouth and tried to breathe,finding that oxygen was actually being delivered to his lungs.
Well, this was a dream!
Zhou Yu basically determined that nothing in this place was going to adhere to sciences rules.
He reached out and looked around, trying to find out what was in the dark depths before him. Anyway, it didnt matter what it was.
A cold, slimy feeling flicked at his fingertips. Zhou Yu froze and wanted to continue swimming forward, but was unable to move.
Where is this? What's that cold and greasy feeling?
Suddenly, Zhou Yu's vision lit up, there was light in the deep sea, right in front of him.
The faint, bright blue light shone in the endless cold, giving a feeling of loneliness.
Zhou Yu's eyes lost focus, and he reached out uncontrollably, trying to reach the brightness in front of him.
Who are you?
The low, majestic voice sounded shocked.
Zhou Yu woke up at that moment, jolting up from the lounge, cold sweat glistening on his skin.
He clearly remembered that the moment his consciousness dissolved, he saw the true nature of that light.
It wasa huge eye.
In the distant sea, the God sleeping in the darkness opened his eyes.
Find him--
He-is mine.
On the altar of an island, the black-robed cultists knelt under the statue of their gods, enthusiastically speaking and shouting thier love for them.
"Keep your order!"
In the center of the altar was a statue of a kraken, carved by the most skilled craftsmen on the entire continent. It was a huge, octopus-shaped being, full of majesty and crawling fear.
At a certain time, an iridescent eye appeared on the statue, exuding a deceptive light.
This made the enthusiastic cultists even more frenzied.
They would do anything to fulfill God's wishes!
