Chapter 29 - Bittersweet Clark, Furious Ian

To be honest,

Ian doesn't like big ones.

But eyes sometimes have their own ideas.

He watched it four or five times.

It is all just pure appreciation at the artistic level.

"It's too fake! It's all plastic and dress-up!" Ian's criticism and pursuit of Truth and Justice was really loud and clear. Seeing that it was getting late, he carefully deleted the browsing history on his computer, formatted the hard drive skillfully, and then filled it with real scientific knowledge learning materials, and then formatted the computer again.

One set of operations goes smoothly.

Full of value.

This is definitely a wisdom that even Jonathan and Jordan combined may not be able to learn. Sleeping is impossible, there is too little time, and Ian spent the whole night on the Internet platform.

He actually found some useful information in various forums and small circles.

The next day, Ian was a little disappointed that he didn't get the insomnia status effect of the dark circles under his eyes, nor did he get the status of kidney deficiency and energy failure. He walked out of the room, blaming his body for being too strong.

The morning light filtered through the blinds and cut golden streaks across the dining table.

The air was filled with the aroma of roasted meat and eggs. Ian poked the scrambled eggs on the plate with his fork, but his eyes were fixed on Clark in the kitchen. Superman was humming a little tune and stuffing bacon into his sandwich.

"Want some more blueberry jam?"

Clark turned to look at Ian who was looking at him, his expression showing no abnormality or sickness, and as he spoke he placed the prepared sandwich on Jordan's plate.

"No."

Ian shook the milk carton in his hand, and the plastic carton made a hollow sound. "I'm full! I'll go to school now! You guys continue to enjoy your wonderful breakfast for the new day!"

As he said this, he stood up and put on his schoolbag.

"Wait! We are going to send you to school!" Jonathan ate a piece of chicken breast in one bite. As a main player in football, he always had his own plans and programs for diet.

"Yeah, what if you meet the kidnappers from yesterday again? That would be too dangerous." Jordan also wanted to catch Ian, but Ian, whose physical fitness was far superior to his, slipped out the door quickly.

Clark didn't stop him.

He even stopped Jordan, who was about to chase after him.

"Your brother is very smart. You have to believe that he can protect himself." Clark knew that some things could not be said yet, so he chose to express it in a more tactful way.

However, "He's still a child! Can he protect himself?" Jordan rolled his eyes, and his stereotype of his father as an irresponsible man deepened.

American family.

Family conflicts have always been the main theme.

"Why!"

Clark looked at Jordan, who was chasing Ian, and just sighed without giving too much explanation. At this time, Lois, who was a little tired, had just come down the stairs.

"Kids, I'm sorry, I'm really sleep-deprived. How was the breakfast your father made for you?" Lois asked sleepily only to find that Jonathan was the only one left in the dining room.

"Good morning, Mom."

Jonathan smiled at Lois and gave her a thumbs up to express his praise for Clark's cooking skills. However, he only ate a few eggs that Clark cooked.

Other ingredients such as chicken breast, creatine, protein powder, arginine, fish oil, curcumin, probiotics, and... mysterious power are all his own dietary combinations.

"Where's Ian? And Jordan?"

Lois was a little confused and took the coffee offered by her husband.

Clark said nothing.

"They went out to school after dinner." Jonathan did not choose to talk about the unpleasant things that happened before. He was always the most mature brother in the family.

"All right," Lois had no doubts.

She munched on her sandwich as she headed for the cupboard in the living room.

"Clark, regarding what we talked about yesterday... I think we still need to tell Ian and let him accept taking the medicine on his own. We can't let him feel like we're deceiving him."

Lois opened the drawer to look for the prescription medicine the doctor had given her.

However, the next moment she was stunned.

"Did you put Ian's medicine somewhere else?"

Lois looked back.

Clark remained silent and just kept eating bread.

"Or, have you already given Ian the medicine and secretly added it to his breakfast?" Lois frowned, her tone full of hostility.

"Why didn't you discuss this with me first?"

It's obvious, Lois was very unhappy.

Seeing this, Jonathan left the table silently.

As for Clark, he gritted his teeth but remained silent, resisting the pressure and output from the most powerful person in the family, and kept stuffing bread into his mouth to fill it up.

Outside of home.

Ian was not caught up by Jordan; he ran very fast, taking shortcuts faster than the bus. Of course, there was a unique reason why he ran so fast.

"Hahaha, hahaha, I'm an expert at taking medicine~" Ian raised the medicine bottle in his hand while running, and the liquid mixed with a handful of colorful pills rushed into his mouth.

The taste is very bitter.

But it didn't stop him from chewing and swallowing. One bottle after another, all the medicines were soon gone, and the effect was quick. Ian saw several changes below his vision.

[Abnormal heart rate]

[Nerve paralysis]

[Sensory overload]

[Metabolic disorder]

[Liver and kidney failure]

Good job!

A total of five negative states!

[Physical decline, experience +2]

It has to be said.

The medicine prescribed by the doctor seemed to work really well for Ian.

"Dr. Hannibal is a miracle doctor!" Ian sincerely admired the psychiatrist who he was a little wary of before. He felt as if he was going to die at any time.

But, although dead, he is not dead, just feels like the dead. Yes, this is the ideal leveling method in his mind! Ian ran very fast and saved a lot of bus fare after arriving at school.

The morning classes were very simple.

But Ian was lying on the table and didn't listen.

[Physical decline continues, experience +3]

The boy is thinking.

He wondered if his mental illness had become more serious. After thinking for a long time, he felt that he was probably cured - the teacher in class did not care about the behavior of the best student in the grade, who was absent-minded in the class.

But his desk mate Madison was a little concerned, but not in the sense of admiration. She turned her head to look at Ian from time to time, and after the teacher got out of class, she finally couldn't help but ask, feeling confused.

"Ian, why are your eyes spinning around... Damn! They're turning into little stars! Are you going to mutate into a zombie!?" Madison was really shocked by Ian's condition.

"Even if you want to become a zombie, stay away, I will be bitten first!"

Her hand pushed violently towards Ian's head, which was leaning forward toward her, looking terrified.

And just at this moment.

"Fuck! Madison! What did you do to me!" Ian, who was immersed in the upgrade experience, suddenly became clear-eyed. After a moment's silence, he became furious.

He had already accumulated seven abnormal states.

Now it's all gone!

The whole person even felt refreshed!

The body feels as good as if he had used [Self-Healing Frenzy]!
