Chapter 167: A Visit from a Homunculus

"Since it's something urgent, let's go over there quickly." No. 18 said.

"Okay, let's go." No. 17 nodded and agreed with No. 18's suggestion.

As they spoke, the three of them slowly took off and flew towards the direction of Turtle House. Since they did not waste time on purpose this time, it didn't take long before they arrived at Turtle Island in a quick and timely manner.

At this time, everyone in the room was still sitting together discussing countermeasures, and a knock on the door drew everyone's attention to the door.

"Oh? Who could it be? Why does he come here at this time?" Master Roshi said in confusion.

Since the androids had no [Qi], no one knew who the visitor was.

When Krillin went forward to open the door, he was surprised to find that there were three people, No. 17, No. 18 and No. 16.

"Hello." No. 17 said politely.

"Hi, see you again." No. 18 greeted Klin who opened the door.

"It must be Krillin who opened the door. Krillin is a disciple of Kame-sennin, and he is considered half the owner of Kame-sen's house. We can't ask a guest to help open the door, right? With Krillin here, it's not appropriate for Kame-sennin to go in person. Although Yamcha wore Kame-sennin's clothes and trained with Kame-sennin for a period of time, he is not considered a disciple of Kame-sennin."

"Huh? No. 18! Why are you here at this time?" Klin asked the three people in surprise.

"So it's you who are here. Gohan told me to tell you about Cell's appearance so that you can find a way to deal with it." When Piccolo heard that the androids were coming, he stood up and walked towards the door.

"Cell? Who is he? Why did he tell us this?" No. 17 asked in confusion.

"What?! You don't even know anything about Cell." Piccolo said with a frown.

"What are you talking about? We know nothing about Cell or anything like that. No. 16, do you know?" No. 18 turned around and asked No. 16 in confusion.

"I have some information here, but not much. He should be considered a work abandoned by Dr. Gallo. I never thought that he was successfully produced. His target is not Sun Wukong, but to destroy the entire universe. In my information, he is an extremely dangerous existence. I don't have more information here, because he is an experimental product abandoned by Dr. Gallo." No. 16 nodded and said.

"Oh? It's something made by that guy Gallo again. Is he also a cyborg?" No. 17 asked curiously.

"Come in first, we will tell you the news we got here." Master Roshi also came out at this time and motioned for everyone to go in and talk.

"Excuse me." No. 17 said to Master Roshi and then took No. 18 and No. 16 into Master Roshi's house.

Although there were a lot of people and No. 16 was a bit big, it didn't feel crowded at all after entering the Turtle House.

"Do you really know nothing about Cell?" Tien Shinhan also heard everyone's conversation in the room. When he saw No. 17 and the others coming over, he couldn't help but speak.

"Stop talking about these useless things and let's talk about that Cell. I'm not tired of it, but you readers are tired of it too." No. 18 said impatiently.

"Cell is a cyborg created by Dr. Gero. No, to be more precise, he was made by a computer. Unlike androids, he has [Qi]." Piccolo said slowly.

"What does that have to do with us?" No. 17 continued what Piccolo was saying, like a supporting actor.

"This is exactly why he asked you to come here, because he needs to absorb you and No. 18 to complete the contract before he can evolve into a perfect form!" Piccolo's words surprised No. 17 and No. 18.

"Absorbing us...what's going on?" No. 18 asked in confusion.

"This is what Cell said himself. He said that you are the raw materials he needs for his evolution. You were created for the evolution of this monster Cell. He possesses extremely powerful strength and a brutal and cunning character. You must take it seriously and be careful of Cell." Piccolo said to No. 17 and No. 18. Although some of the words were made up by Piccolo himself, the meaning was basically the same. He did this to make No. 17 and No. 18 pay more attention.

"Hmph, don't underestimate us. We are very powerful. How can he deal with us alone? I can beat him down by myself." No. 17 said nonchalantly.

"Don't be careless. Since Cell was created by Dr. Gero and can absorb your power, then you, who were also transformed by Dr. Gero, must have some means of restraining you. Cell may have some special devices or methods that can easily deal with you." Krillin said on the side.

This is not an exaggeration. Since Dr. Gallo has already created an emergency braking device to deal with No. 17 and No. 18, he may have other means.

"Damn it, Gallo is such a bastard, he won't let us rest in peace even after his death." No. 18 said angrily.

"No wonder. Since Gallo is already able to create a complete artificial human, why did he want to keep me and No. 18 here? So this is his plan... Damn it!" No. 17 thought to himself. No. 17 was not a stupid person and he figured it out immediately.

No. 17 believed about 17% of what Piccolo and the others said, and as for the remaining part, he suspected that it was exaggerated.

"Cell also came from the future, so he might know some of your information." Piccolo said with his eyes closed, not knowing what he was thinking.

"What should we do? We can't just hide, right?" No. 18 said dissatisfiedly.

"I think this is why Gohan asked you to come here. Let's think of a solution together. In short, we must not let Cell and No. 17 and No. 18 have a head-on collision. Otherwise, no one knows whether Cell has some way that we don't know about to absorb you." Krillin said on the side.

"Wait a minute, Gohan and the others are training in a good place. As long as we give them one day, their fighting power will increase significantly." Piccolo opened his eyes and said to them.

"Stop joking. One day? What can we do in one day? We might as well find a way to kill that guy named Cell ourselves." When No. 17 heard what Piccolo said, he couldn't help but speak angrily.
