Zhu Tian: Starting from the Stand User

Chapter 92 Aging

After agreeing to go together, Walter did not leave immediately.

He also needed to interrogate the ghouls. The frequency of these monsters appearing had increased significantly recently, so he needed to know what their plans were or who was behind them. This was the purpose of his trip.

Of course, Lu Chen knew all this information, but there was no way to properly disclose it to Walter.

If I rashly say that everything was planned by the major, I'm afraid I'll be the one being tortured.

Lu Chen sat aside and watched Walter's interrogation. The process was extremely cruel.

So it makes sense that the ghouls were afraid of falling into his hands. After getting all the information, Walter just flicked the wire with his fingers and cut off the ghoul's head.

In reality, there was no intelligence at all. It was impossible for these small-time monsters to know the Major's plan. Lu Chen speculated that these were all pre-emptive sacrifices to lure out Akado.

Lu Chen was very envious of Walter's operation. This wire-pulling technique was so cool.

Walter tidied up his appearance, pulled his gloves, and said, "Okay, sir, it's time for us to set off."

Lu Chen stood up, casually brushed off the dirt on his cloak, and followed him. Perhaps the coolness of this technique had something to do with the person.

The two of them walked along the path in the woods.

"Have you always been handling these matters personally?" Lu Chen asked curiously.

In fact, what Lu Chen wanted to ask most was that normally it was Akado who handled this kind of thing, unless Akado was still in a sealed state.

After the war, Akado was seemingly re-sealed for a period of time. However, it's unknown when he was finally released. During this time, Walter handled everything. Only after Akado was released did he become a butler again.

Walter answered as a matter of course: “Of course, I have always been the one handling this kind of thing. Haven’t you heard of my reputation?”

There was actually something cunning about this statement; his character actually carried a lot of bad taste, but he hid it all behind his gentlemanly demeanor.

Lu Chen thought about it and decided to directly state his request to avoid the housekeeper's suspicion. "Can you teach me the technique of using steel wire? In return, I will also teach you a technique."

The housekeeper looked at Lu Chen's sincere face and fell into deep thought. It turned out that he was pestering him to learn skills. This statement should be true. Besides, there was no point in him pestering him.

It seems that his title as the God of Death has given him some unrealistic ideas.

Walter asked seriously, "Why do you think I would teach you my skills?"

"Technology always advances through communication. Don't you want to see my skills? What do you think of how I defeated those zombies?"

Xiaoli punched the ground and a big hole appeared instantly.

Walter shook his head and gave advice: "Since you have such skills, why bother to learn my skills? If you study this skill carefully, you will be able to deal with various situations."

Lu Chen spoke with a hint of meaning: "Technology advances through communication. If humans don't exchange technology with each other, how can we defeat those immortal monsters? The teacher who taught me this technology can still crush boulders at the age of 146." Aging is Walter's deepest fear. He is not afraid of death. He fears that he will never be able to defeat the opponent who has always been unbeatable.

The Oriental man's claim that he could still break through boulders at the age of 146 made him somewhat moved. There were always some miraculous techniques in the East.

The reason why he fears aging is because of the monster king Akado. Now he doesn't even have a chance of winning. And soon, the eldest lady is about to release Akado's seal again.

What will she think when she sees herself becoming so old in a few decades?

Walter was silent for a moment and said, "This technique alone is not enough. Since you claim to be a sword master, then bring out your strongest moves in exchange."

Lu Chen explained, "I don't really know any sword techniques. It's just that the person who gave me the title of Sword Saint said so. As long as you find your own path, you can be called a Sword Saint. But I do have one more trick."

After saying that, he threw a spinning punch towards the giant tree beside him, and the punch went straight through the tree stump.

Walter looked at Lu Chen's skills, and he didn't know whether his choice was right.

Lu Chen decided to continue to bring out the most important point: "The power contained in this punch is a spin, and the spin can temporarily change a person's age."

Jello used this trick to deceive his father.

Sure enough, this news made Walter curious: "Change the age state? Can you show me?"

Lu Chen shook his head and said, "I can't do it, but the master who taught me can do it." Although Lu Chen had learned a lot about the Golden Spin technique, it was not as versatile as Jello's in practical application. He only learned how to throw it to defeat the enemy.

"It sounds like you've studied technology with a lot of people."

"Of course, learning is the most important part of being human. We are not like monsters who fight on instinct."

"Lu Chen, why are you here? You're definitely not here for tourism. If you were a tourist, you would have left long ago in this situation."

Lu Chen answered with determination: "I am pursuing strength, and learning is the process of making people strong." This has always been Lu Chen's wish.

Walter was silent for a moment before speaking: "Wouldn't it be possible to become powerful by becoming a [Monster]? As long as you give up your human identity, you can gain incredible power. What would you choose if it were you?"

Perhaps he was also struggling internally, wondering if his aging human body could truly defeat that unmatched opponent. Such a heroic figure. So he wanted to hear the thoughts of this outsider, who sought power.

Lu Chen answered frankly, "I don't know if I should become a monster, and I can't tell you here that I absolutely won't be tempted. Before I face that [power], all assumptions are meaningless. Only the decision I make at that moment is the most real."

Walter smiled and said, "It seems you are a philosopher. Perhaps this is the wisdom of the East. I will teach you how to use the wire. Of course, in return you have to do something for me."

Lu Chen nodded and replied: "Of course. This is a deal."

Walter continued to answer: "Very good, then follow me back to London. As for whether you can go to our headquarters, it is not up to me to decide. So you should find a place to stay in London first."
