Chapter 1940: I’ll Give You a Chance to Rethink Your Words

As soon as he said that, Luke drifted out the door — Agony hadn’t closed it when he left.

Haley turned around and asked anxiously, “Wait, what about me?”

Luke’s voice came from afar. “Be careful.”

Haley: …Is that what I’m asking? You b*stard!

In any case, Luke finally had an excuse to slip away.

Whether he could be persuaded or not was a serious question. He couldn’t do it just because she said so.

He still needed more time to think about it.

However, Agony shouldn’t be in danger here. The symbiosis with the husky shouldn’t affect its life-saving abilities. Could it be…

With a thought, his clothes were instantly replaced with the outfit of the bigshot who sold everything.

Recently, he had been using this alias to educate the octopus baby. The octopus baby was face blind, but it had a deep impression of his mental powers.

Soon, Luke was ten kilometers away.

He didn’t go into the ocean. Instead, he activated his Vibration ability and sent out a special shock wave to summon the baby.

A moment later, a big yellowish-orange head poked out of the ocean, the eyes on it looking around warily.

When it saw the bigshot floating over the ocean, it hissed excitedly and leaned over.

Luke stepped forward and landed on the big head.

His exclusive throne immediately took shape, and he sat down comfortably. “You’re being naughty again, Brother Octopus.”

The octopus baby waved its two tentacles in front of Luke to say that it hadn’t done anything bad.

Luke sighed. “Then what’s with that dog you caught?”

The octopus baby was stumped for a moment before it finally remembered that Shriek had gotten it to catch something earlier, and the octopus had almost stuffed it into its mouth.

Thankfully, Shriek stopped it.

Now that Luke was asking about its prey, the octopus baby immediately thought of the little black and white fatty that had been let go, and it hissed in melancholy.

Luke patted the arm of the throne. “Alright, why bother eating such a small thing? Bring it here.”

The octopus baby immediately did as it was told.

A trembling husky wrapped in a small tentacle was lifted up and placed in front of him.

Leaning on his cane with both hands and wearing a monocle, Luke bent forward and observed Agony. He nodded. “A symbiote, right?”

The husky tilted its head and looked at him, pretending to be stupid.

Luke chuckled and lightly poked the head under his feet with his cane. “Shriek, come out and say hello to your kind.”

A yellow semi-liquid rose from the head of the octopus in front of him and condensed into a yellow head with a mouth full of fangs. It looked at the husky disdainfully. “Agony, you’re a disgrace to the symbiotes.”

Stunned for a moment, a blue, semi-liquid head with long fangs appeared on the husky’s back. “Shriek, why are you here? Who is he? Why are you listening to this human?”

Shriek subconsciously looked at the bigshot and saw that he had no intention of stopping it, so it replied, “Rude! Call him Mr. Pennyworth, or I’ll kill you.”

Agony: …Haley is like this, and so are you. Are you crazy? Why do you want to be someone else’s lapdog?

Luke tapped with his cane again, and Shriek immediately fell silent.

With a faint smile, he said to Agony, “You should be glad that I am informed. Symbiotes are very rare test subjects on Earth. Many labs want a piece of you!”

Agony couldn’t help but step back.

After being in a symbiotic relationship with Haley for so long, it naturally knew what test subjects were, and it also knew how ‘popular’ alien test subjects like itself were.

It had run several times before; the longest time it had remained in hiding was for a month in a remote Nordic forest, yet the Joker had still caught it.

Then, the guy used a lot of strange tools to pierce it inside out.

The symbiote wasn’t afraid of ordinary physical damage, but Luke had attached a small amount of faith to the tools.

The tools felt like a branding iron when they worked Agony over.

After a few times, Agony didn’t dare run anymore.

It didn’t know that those chances to escape had been part of that terrifying Joker’s trap.

As long as it failed to escape, it would be stabbed with even more tools.

It could only accept the deal with Joker: To gain freedom, it had to defeat him once.

Although the chances of success were slim, and it would hurt for a while when it was beaten up after if it failed to escape, at least it wouldn’t be tortured.

After saying that, Luke didn’t bother with it.

It had become a habit to casually beat up Agony, in case this guy really thought that it was easy to survive on Earth!

Using another identity as a threat was to make it understand that a dog without backing might die very suddenly.

He looked at Shriek. “Shouldn’t Brother Octopus be sleeping? Why is it here?”

Shriek glanced at Agony again. Seeing that Luke didn’t object, she said, “A disgusting guy came. Brother Octopus and I don’t like it, so we gave it the trench.”

Give up their resting place? Brother Octopus basically ate whatever it caught in the ocean. How could it give in?

Luke was astonished. “What is it?”

Agony: “It’s a big six-legged monster. It doesn’t look easy to digest, and it doesn’t smell tasty.”

A thought flashed through Luke’s mind. “Just one?”

Shriek: “Just one.”

After a brief hesitation, it added, “It also looks like it’s dragging a long, round object. It’s probably some big machine made by humans.”

Luke tapped the octopus’s head three times, and Shriek immediately released the mental shield so that Luke could communicate with Brother Octopus.

Several seconds later, he nodded. “Let’s go. Show me the monster.”

Brother Octopus immediately did as it was told, and Shriek sank back into its body.

Agony rolled its eyes and pretended to lose its balance before it fell into the ocean.

With a thought from Luke, Brother Octopus wrapped a small tentacle around the husky.

Agony couldn’t pretend anymore. It hurriedly said, “Wait, human, this has nothing to do with me. Let me go first!”

Luke glanced at it before ignoring it.

A small head popped up on the tentacle wrapped around Agony, and Shriek chuckled. “Agony, since you’re a little stupid, I’ll give you a chance to rethink your words.”

After more than ten seconds of silence, Agony ventured, “Merciful sir, please let the weak and pitiful me go?”

Sitting on the octopus’s head, Luke hummed and said, “Just stay here. You won’t die anyway.”

Agony was lost for words. If I had known, I would’ve endured it. Why did I come out to swim at night?!

No matter what Agony thought, Brother Octopus gripped the husky and, with the bigshot on its head, headed 100 kilometers across the ocean.

As they moved forward, metal detectors kept appearing in the bigshot’s hands, which he threw into the ocean.

He put on his monocle again and the readings from the detectors were immediately projected.

He wondered, Is it really that thing? How many of them are there?
