Chapter 363 Returning in Disgrace
Despite Luke's solemn promise, the expedition's guide, Ms. Lex, still didn't want to sit there and wait for death.
"Whatever it is, we have to get out of here first."
Everyone looked at Mr. Weiland again.
Before he could make a decision, Luke spoke first.
"You are free to do whatever you want, but Mr. Weiland must stay with me."
Weiland thought for a moment and said to Lex and the security captain:
"You guys go ahead and explore the way. If it's safe, we'll follow you."
Lex and the security captain also agreed with Weiland's decision.
Luke said nothing this time.
Luke wanted to save people not because he was too kind-hearted, but because he always believed that as an earthling, he should unite all earthlings when facing aliens.
It is rare for a civilization like Earth, which has just begun to explore the universe, to be still engaged in constant civil wars on a planet.
Civilizations in other universes had already completed internal racial unification when they entered the stage of exploring the universe.
And what about the Earth? The war on each other has never stopped.
The difference in cognition results in a narrow vision.
Luke knows a lot about the universe, and he also knows that this world has more problems than just the current universe.
There are also various planes, dimensions and parallel universes.
So Luke never had his eyes on this little broken ball.
The president could only suspend him from his post, but it did not affect Luke from doing his own thing.
This actually allows Luke to travel around the world.
So Luke will not bear a grudge against this president, at most he will just complain.
A person's vision determines his upper limits and his mind and character.
Luke is a monk and doesn't care about the president's little thoughts.
What he was thinking about was how to use this broken system given to him by his master to get order points so that he could gain a foothold in the universe as soon as possible.
This is not a problem that can be solved by just strong personal strength.
Although Odin is powerful, Asgard is even more powerful.
The reason they can gain a foothold in the universe is not only due to Odin's strength, but also because Asgard's warriors are also very powerful in the universe.
The Kree don't have particularly powerful warriors, but they can still dominate the universe.
This is what Luke wants to do, to lead a race to gain a foothold in the universe, so that they will not be at the mercy of others.
Just like now.
Although he didn't know what kind of contract the Iron Warriors signed with Master Ancient One, Luke was very unhappy about this back and forth and not treating the Earthlings as human beings.
But he had said what needed to be said, and now all he had to do was ensure Weiland's safety.
Lena, the little follower, was more willing to trust him than those "experts" and security personnel who had rich experience in exploration.
After all, Lena saw with her own eyes how Luke and McClane dealt with a group of terrorists.
Although she is rebellious, she is not stupid.
The security captain finally left two team members with Mr. Weiland, and then took the other team members and left with the guide Ms. Lex.
Lena helped old man Wieland find a place to sit down.
Weiland asked Luke with a serious look on his face.
"The hunter you are talking about is..."
Luke nodded.
"Aliens, very good at fighting. I have dealt with them in Columbia."
The rest of the people present widened their eyes in surprise.
But Johnny remained calm.
I just like to see you guys look so new and unworldly...
An inexplicable sense of superiority surged into Johnny's heart...
I have signed an agreement with Mephisto, and I have an official identity as a worker in Hell...
Aliens... hehe... it's just a small thing...
My boss is the representative of Hell on earth. He is a close friend of Lucifer and an uncle and nephew of Mephisto...
Johnny stood beside Luke with an air of pride, his back straightened a lot.
Wayland didn't ask Luke why he knew this.
Although Mr. Qin allowed Luke to join his expedition team as a doctor.
But the news that Luke worked for the FBI was not concealed.
Weiland took it for granted that Luke had been exposed to many secrets in the FBI.
He didn't care about that and looked at Luke hopefully.
"My illness..."
Luke knew what he was thinking and shook his head.
"They are good at fighting, and they are very different from us humans. I will take care of your illness when we get back."
Weiland said nothing more.
Although Luke didn't say whether he could cure him, he didn't make a definite statement. Besides, with other people around, he believed that Luke would be able to find a way.
Although Lena guessed that Luke had a way, she didn't ask him in person.
Suddenly, screams were heard from above the room, in the passage connecting to the sacrificial room.
Soon after, fierce gunfire was heard from the direction where Lex and others left.
The remaining two security guards hurriedly used the intercom to contact the security team leader and others, but there was no response.
The two team members became anxious when they got no response.
He looked at Weiland one last time, then at Luke.
Luke shook his head.
But the two players gritted their teeth and said to Weiland:
"Sorry, sir, we can't abandon our teammates..."
Then he nodded to another security guard.
The two of them hurriedly ran towards the passage.
Weiland looked at Luke, then at Johnny and Lena, and said tentatively:
"You have to go through your secret department..."
Luke smiled and waved his hand.
"Go find my grandfather. He can contact Chinese doctors. They have been studying herbs that may seem like witch doctors to you for thousands of years."
"Things that you can't explain with science are very common in China. How do you know if they work if you don't try?"
Luke's explanation was still ambiguous, but Wayland believed it, and really believed it.
China's top traditional Chinese medicine practitioners never demonstrate their medical skills to the general public because the country has already contracted it out.
It’s not that the Chinese medicine practitioners’ skills are bad, but that many of their medicinal herbs have been banned.
Tiger bones, bear bile, and many other animal and plant medicinal materials cannot be used. How can we treat diseases?
Moreover, the medicinal properties of artificially cultivated medicinal herbs and wild medicinal herbs are very different.
This results in the drug being less effective than before.
In fact, Luke still wanted to cure old man Wayland's illness without anyone noticing.
For Americans, the mysterious Chinese medicine is the best explanation.
Because science cannot explain it, many foreigners classify it as mysticism.
This explains why the end of science is theology...
The gunshots were accompanied by the shaking of the ground and walls.
Luke and his companions could feel that the mechanism in the entire pyramid had been triggered.
After a while, the mechanism stopped working and everything returned to calm.
However, Ms. Lex fled back in a panic with the archaeologist, the security captain, and the two security guards who had just left.
"The road ahead was suddenly blocked, and we encountered a monster..."
Luke smiled and pointed to the stone statue on one side of the hall and said:
"Is that the kind?"
Lex and the others were stunned for a moment and looked in the direction Luke pointed.
"We didn't see clearly, they... they seem to be able to turn invisible..."
Luke nodded.
"Well, wait here, they will come."
"How can you be so sure?" Lex asked Luke curiously.
Luke curled his lips in disdain.
"You stole the master's things, and you still can't let him come to you to ask for them back?"
