Actually, Luke had already sensed Gordon's scent on the counterfeit at the very beginning.
The few minutes of review had only been for Tony to confirm that there was nothing wrong with the warehouse, in case the proud tycoon blew up.
While the tycoon stared at the warehouse personnel with a dark expression, Luke was already thinking about how to catch Gordon.
Gordon had such a dangerous ability, and he was with an ambitious woman like Jia Ying. Naturally, the nanoworms weren't the only backup plan on him.
The nanoworms were just a "physical" backup plan.
In his next life, Lincoln, who had been knocked on the head twice by Luke, was very good at restraining them.
The second backup plan was Luke's traditional skill — psychological suggestion.
The middle-aged woman in his next life had a mental interference that was more offensive, and had limited effect on psychological suggestions.
As long as Gordon played his part and didn't want to make a big deal out of it, the second backup plan would never be activated.
As a final safety measure, the psychological suggestion was far more subtle than the nanoworms.
To prevent Gordon from noticing anything amiss, the psychological suggestion would only be activated once a month.
It wasn't mandatory, and would only lead Gordon to one of several fixed locations at the beginning of each month.
These few fixed locations had a special meaning to Gordon.
Luke had only strengthened Gordon's subconscious memory of these places, and that was why he was so obsessed with them.
As the old saying went, it was always better to tamper with a person's consciousness than to face it head-on.
…
Gordon was walking in an area of single-story houses. At night, there were only a few lights on the porches, and the entire area was extremely quiet.
He stopped in front of a single-story house.
Although he could no longer see, his awakened ability could still sense the appearance of the house in front of him, and he could vaguely remember what it had looked like more than ten years ago.
This used to be his home, but a stranger was now living here.
Gordon didn't know what was wrong with him.
Perhaps it was because he was getting old, but in the last two years, he would suddenly recall a lot of things that were buried deep in his memories. He couldn't forget how his mother had cared for him when he was young.
But everything was in the past.
A few years after he was taken to the next life, his mother finally left. She got married again and had a daughter.
His half-sister was an ordinary person, just like his mother.
He had inherited his father's mutant blood, and it was impossible for them to stay together.
If anyone found out about his relationship with them and knew that he still cared about them, they would become bargaining chips to threaten him.
He could only come here once in a while to search for the gradually blurring memories in his mind and relive them.
Suddenly, he turned his head and 'looked' into the distance.
A figure broke away from its transparent state, revealing a black and white armor.
On the black and white skull mask, two pitch-black eye sockets curved, as if they were smiling.
Gordon was shocked, and he activated his teleportation ability without hesitation.
He was extremely loyal to his new leader, Werner, but that did not affect his judgment of Big Dipper's combat strength.
As long as Big Dipper grasped the slightest opportunity, he would lose any chance of leaving.
Gordon's body leaned forward, his hands and feet in front of him and behind him. He got into a stance that looked like he was about to start running.
His teleportation couldn't really be activated in an instant.
From the moment he activated it to the moment he left, there was at least 0.2 seconds of channeling time.
Assuming this posture would help him unleash a stronger teleportation ability.
But just as he assumed this posture, his heart skipped a beat. Crap, why did he suddenly do something stupid?
The most correct response right now was to use continuous teleportation as fast as possible to put a safe distance between him and Big Dipper, instead of using a large teleportation ability.
But what surprised him even more was that Big Dipper simply crossed his arms and tilted his head at him.
Gordon didn't have time to ponder the meaning of this action. Teleportation ability?
Seeing that Big Dipper was still staring at him, Gordon was stunned, and then immediately understood. "You've already set up a trap here?"
Luke stepped forward unhurriedly. "Of course. Otherwise, I would be faster than you."
Gordon didn't give up.
The boundless loyalty he had for Wornal made him turn around and run for his life.
What if … he ran out of range of the spatial blocker?
Spatial blockers that weren't set up for a long time generally had a range of fifty to a hundred meters.
With his body that had been trained in combat for a long time, he could run out in a few seconds.
Luke rolled his eyes at the back of his head and raised his hand to shoot out a net.
The black cylinder flew two meters behind Gordon, before it suddenly bounced off and turned into a black net.
Like a fish that had been caught in a net, Gordon dove straight down and hit the ground with a bang.
But he still refused to give up, and his hands and feet kept tearing at the net as he tried to break it.
Luke sighed. "Hey, you forced me to do this. Don't go crying to Jia Ying when you wake up." He then activated the electric shock function of the multipurpose net gun.
Zi! Zi!
Gordon bounced a few more times before he collapsed to the ground like a dead fish, but he didn't pass out.
Luke said, "Huh, you're very strong. Sorry, I'll have to increase the power. "
Gordon's body bounced happily again, and white smoke rose from the top of his head, as if he were ascending to immortality.
Before he lost consciousness, there was only one thought in his mind: Death Knell, are you messing with me on purpose? WDNMD!
…
Half an hour later, a gloomy Gordon appeared in an ancient ruin on the main island of Hawaii.
Then, one of his hands was tightly gripped by the Big Dipper clone.
"Wernal is at the core of the palace down below. Can you let go now?" said Gordon helplessly.
Luke said, "Okay, Gordon."
Duang!
Gordon, who had lost his sight, felt as if he could see stars again. His body fell down stiffly.
"There's no problem now, Gordon." Luke withdrew his right hand from Gordon's forehead. "Wernal definitely won't be able to control you anymore."
After throwing the unconscious Gordon back into the secondary space, Luke activated the stealth system and snuck into the underground ruins according to Gordon's instructions.
The dark environment didn't affect his movements at all. The extremely weak shockwaves continuously reflected the terrain of the buildings within a hundred meters.
Based on the information that Gordon had given him, it only took him two minutes to arrive at a room in the underground core of the ruins.
In the middle of the room stood a lonely stone platform, and in the middle of it was a piece of shiny silver metal.
Luke walked over, and with one glance, he confirmed that it was the strange metal cylinder that Gordon had stolen.
The main body's outer shell opened outward in all four directions, and there was nothing inside.
Clearly, it was a "box."
Inside the "box" was probably the "awakening substance" that Jia Ying had mentioned, and it was now in Wernal's hands.
Taking a deep breath, Luke silently estimated that there were many human scents left in this place, before he quickly drifted to another passage.
Ten minutes later, he stopped searching in the air.
Wernal had already retreated ten minutes before Luke arrived, and his scent had completely disappeared from the seaside. Luke didn't know what superpower he had used to escape.
How did he escape so quickly? This was going to be troublesome. Luke mumbled to himself as he looked at the dark sea.
