Creepy Pharmacist: All my patients are scary!

Chapter 454: Just Like a Bickering Young Couple

It's gone!

Damn it, my revive buff is gone!

He truly never expected that his first time would be given to Miss Puppet. That huge revive buff of mine!

"This is too much! This is really too much!"

Lynn stared painfully at the serene face so close to his, supporting himself with both arms as he said seriously:

"Do you know how much willpower I used to hold back from triggering it?! And you just casually popped it like that?! Do you know how precious this buff is?!"

Hei Xianyue gazed at him serenely, then closed her eyes and said:

"If I didn't do that, based on my understanding of you, you'd probably really lie on top of me for over an hour, and then I wouldn't be able to protect you."

She slightly turned her head, her peripheral vision watching the nanomechanical storm raging in the distant observation area.

"Moreover, my energy explosion's interference with the information flow isn't unlimited. At most thirty minutes, the signal here will be restored. If I were part of the Mechanical Cult's management...""They've probably already mobilized a large force to come here and kill you by now."

Her eyes flickered with a rational and calm purple glow.

Her state of mind wasn't affected in the slightest by that guy's malicious teasing.

Because she was pretty much used to it.

Especially every time he used the M Fist, she was always "unintentionally," "coincidentally," and "accidentally" affected. She was almost completely immune to this guy by now.

She didn't want to dwell anymore on whether he did it on purpose or not.

Because even if you exposed him, he'd generously and openly admit it, then lower his standards a bit more before arguing with you.

So when communicating with him,

you absolutely must maintain enough rationality.

Otherwise, he'll drag you into his rhythm, lead you astray into all sorts of strange corners, then use his abundant experience to provoke you.

"Right, if it were me, I'd definitely do the same."

Lynn nodded, expressing agreement with Miss Puppet's words.

Then he sat up from on top of Hei Xianyue, his expression serious, his gaze profound as he said:

"So if nothing unexpected happens, we'll probably encounter a second wave of attacks very soon. And this wave of assault might even be more troublesome than the nano-clusters."

"That's also why I desperately tried to preserve my revive buff."

He turned his head, looking with extreme complexity at the immobilized Hei Xianyue, shaking his head as he said:

"But now Miss Puppet has already popped it..."

Hei Xianyue: "..."

"Of course," Lynn raised his head at a 45.5-degree angle, saying:

"I definitely won't blame you, and I don't mean to make you compensate me either. It's just that such a big revive buff was something I originally wanted to save for the new year. After all, it's an extra life. After being with me for so long, now suddenly it's gone, I just feel a bit empty inside."

He raised his head and closed his eyes, using his ring finger to wipe away a nonexistent teardrop from the corner of his eye.

Melancholy and loss, inexplicable sorrow.

As if there was actually a hint of sadness...

Hei Xianyue: "I'll compensate you..."

Ding—

Lynn's eyes immediately shifted to the corners, his peripheral vision instantly landing on the immobilized Miss Puppet's face.

Suddenly, he didn't seem so sad anymore.

"No need, do I look like that petty kind of person to you?"

Lynn added seriously without changing his expression.

But the expectant look in his eyes had completely betrayed his terrible nature.

Hei Xianyue weakly turned her head away, vaguely seeming to have some impulse of utter despair. She closed her eyes, her voice faint as gossamer as she said:

"According to the employment regulations, during mission periods, if significant losses to the patient are caused by the puppet's personal reasons, the patient has the right to request compensation from Doll Manor."

"But I don't have anything to compensate you with right now."

"So I can give you a promise. If one day you encounter a life-threatening major accident that you cannot resolve, I can save you unconditionally."

Her pupils reflected Lynn's face, tranquil like this night.

"But only once."

A strange purple pattern slowly traced itself in her eyes. That pattern gradually took shape, then like vines along the thread binding their fingers together, it spread onto Lynn's wrist.

Almost instantly, Lynn's ears suddenly heard the System's prompt.

[Ding! Hei Xianyue has unilaterally established the contract "Puppet's Vow" with you. You have gained 200 base experience.]

[Puppet's Vow]: A talent contract of Cursed Arts puppets, can only be actively bestowed upon a target by a Cursed Arts puppet. After the contract is established, the Cursed Arts puppet must ensure the contract's fulfillment. If the contract is violated or the contract's target dies, the Cursed Arts puppet will suffer massive backlash and corruption.

[Ding! Contract established: You can command Hei Xianyue to fulfill the contract at any time.]

Instantly, Lynn was completely stunned.

He stared blankly at Hei Xianyue lying there quietly watching him, then listened to the System prompt in his ears. He immediately frowned, examining that contract over and over again.

"Oh my god..."

He slapped his forehead in frustration, saying:

"I was joking with you... why did you take it seriously? That thing isn't valuable at all! I can go collect one from the Matriarch every day, it's the kind of freebie you shouldn't pass up! And I just tore up the contract between us, why are you putting such a huge lock on yourself right after?"

"Even if you wanted to do it, you should have discussed it with me first!"

Lynn was utterly exasperated.

Hei Xianyue closed her eyes, turning her head to the side, clearly showing a refusal to communicate further, not wanting to say another word.

Lynn: "..."

No doubt about it, she was angry.

But why was there increasingly this wicked feeling of a lovers' quarrel?

But it must be an illusion. After all, Miss Puppet's Emotional Development is still quite low. It's probably just that she simply doesn't want to communicate.

"Angry?"

Lynn wiped sweat (￣ω￣;) and poked her.

Hei Xianyue didn't want to acknowledge him.

Lynn poked again.

"..."

Still no response.

Poked again.

"..."

Still no response.

Poked aga—

[Ding! Hei Xianyue's anger towards you +1, Emotional Development reached 21.9%.]

[Ding! Hei Xianyue's anger towards you +1, Emotional Development reached 22.2%.]

Instantly, before Lynn could poke again, threads suddenly snaked before him like serpents, then pointed menacingly at his eyes.

Clearly conveying the threatening intent of "if you dare poke again, I'll poke your eyes out."

And Lynn was also extremely decisive and skillfully raised both hands, maintaining the expression of an innocent young man, indicating he wasn't using any weapons.

Hei Xianyue stared at him, having reached her limit. If you listened carefully, you could faintly hear the sound of teeth grinding.

Obviously, Miss Puppet had reached her breaking point.

"Put your clothes on immediately."

She threatened in a cold tone that could kill Lynn.

"OK!"

Lynn decisively nodded.

Then immediately and nimbly stood up, swiftly and seamlessly retrieved his Night Doctor equipment from the System Space, putting on pants while pulling on his outer garment, extremely dexterous.

But a flash of anger still appeared in Miss Puppet's icy eyes.

Because standing up and brazenly dressing in front of her was one thing, since he had no morals.

But that detestable part that had poked her for nearly over ten minutes was still swaying before her eyes! This kind of thing really made it hard not to want to finish him off!

Hardened!

Her fists were already rock hard!
