"Where am I...?"

Gibson opened his eyes in the lake and saw a beautiful little girl staring at him. The other party looked cold and he felt like he was being targeted by a mutant beast.

Gibson subconsciously wanted to be on guard, but his whole body was stiff and he couldn't lift his strength. At the same time, he felt nauseous and dry retching.

Gibson stretched out his hand with difficulty, and then he realized that he was in a transparent box.

Seeing this, the little girl left. Not long after, a man came with the little girl.

Seeing the young man's face, a picture suddenly flashed through Gibson's mind.

"It's him, Duke..."

Card--

Duke opened the dormant compartment, looked at Gibson lying in the dormant compartment, and said with a smile:

"Mr. Gibson, you're awake."

"I'm...where is my wife..."

Gibson felt a little confused and his mind was messy.

Duke knew that this was some side effects after freezing and dormant, so he said slowly:

"Don't worry, neither you nor your wife, Ms. Milton, are you in danger of life. Can you get up now?"

"Oh, yes..."

During the time he was talking, Gibson felt that his physical strength had recovered a lot, so he quickly got up from the dormant pole.

Only then did he realize that the place where he just lay there was the same place where his wife was put in.

Duke looked at Gibson's expression, probably when he was invaded by black fog, his memory of that moment might not have been preserved, or he might not be able to remember it for the time being.

But the problem is not big, it's all small things.

On the sofa.

Gibson sat there, a little bit restrained.

Duke and Xiaoxue sat opposite Gibson.

Alisa poured Gibson a cup of tea.

"Thanks!"

Gibson thanked quickly.

Alyssa saw Xiaoxue staring at Gibson's cup, so she brought another cup of milk tea, placed it in front of Xiaoxue's table, and smiled at her.

"……Thanks."

Xiaoxue spit out a word a little awkwardly.

Duke was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that Xiaoxue would say thank you. It was very effective after reading Alisha's teachings these days!

Duke subconsciously rubbed Xiaoxue's head, but he didn't expect that Xiaoxue was holding milk tea at this time, which resulted in milk tea all over her lips and nose.

"Sorry, sorry!"

Duke quickly took out the tissue on the table and helped Xiaoxue wipe it.

Xiaoxue didn't speak or was angry, so she looked at Duke obediently.

After pinching Xiaoxue's face, Duke looked at Gibson, who had been a little too late to wait, and said with a smile:

"Mr. Gibson, it has been three days since you came to me."

"Three days..."

Gibson muttered to himself, and he felt like he had a sleep.

"That's how it is..."

Duke didn't hide it and told Gibson about the previous incident.

More than ten minutes later, Gibson looked at Duke in shock:

"You mean, I almost lost control and was rescued by you?"

"So that's it."

Duke was not modest, after all, this was the truth.

"I……"

Gibson was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say.

He couldn't remember the memory of being invaded by the black fog for the time being, but he remembered clearly what happened before.

From the invasion of her wife by black fog, the two of them fought, until they came to Ping'an Street, the wife was subdued, and the memories of him entering Building 4 by himself are vivid in my mind.

If someone said he lost control and was rescued at another time or at another location, he would most likely not believe it.

After all, in his perception, this is impossible.

But he knew his situation. At that time, he felt that he would fight his wife for a few more rounds, and it would be very likely that it would cause black fog and get out of control.

So Duke said that it is very likely that he will cause black fog to lose control because of his emotions.

In addition, although he still couldn't use his strength, his whole body was much more relaxed, and the depression brought by the black fog was gone.

Gibson knew that this was not a mental effect.

After every awakened person grows to his personal limit, he will feel at what time he will attract black fog.

When this feeling occurs, it will naturally become a little depressed.

And now, this feeling of depression is gone, what does this mean? It means that the black fog that he might attract at any time is gone!

Only when the black fog is gone can he not feel depressed!

Of course, Gibson could vaguely feel that this black fog did not disappear forever, and it would still be possible for him to engage in high-intensity battles in the future.

But that is the future. At least now, he will not be at risk of being invaded by black fog for the time being!

Thinking of this, Gibson felt a little excited after realizing it.

"Mr. Duke, you are a life-saving grace to me! I have no choice but to repay you, I can only…"

Gibson originally wanted to say that he had nothing to pay back, and since Duke saved his life, he was willing to work for Duke.

But suddenly, he thought again that he was fine for the time being, but his wife, after all, her wife was out of control!

Moreover, my wife's condition is even more serious, and I don't know if she can recover...

So Gibson changed his words:

"Thank you very much, Mr. Duke, if you can help me to treat my wife, my husband and I will be willing to be loyal to you and will never betray you!"

Gibson said it firmly, but he felt a little embarrassed. After all, he felt a little greedy. After all, he had just rescued him, and he asked someone to save his wife.

But for the sake of his wife's life, you should be shameless.

Duke was a little surprised when he heard Gibson's words. He thought he had some verbal talk and guided the topic, but he didn't expect Gibson to speak first.

This is of course in Duke's interests, after all, this is his purpose.

"Yes, since I can save you, I can naturally save your wife. Although it will consume a lot of my precious resources, I am sure."

Duke lies little, and to save his wife, he only needs to consume some dormant fluid and electricity in the dormant compartment.

But Gibson obviously didn't know that when he heard Duke's words, he was both excited and moved. This Duke, a good man!

After all, he could think with his toes that the ability to turn an out-of-control person back to its original state would definitely consume too much resources. Duke did not even hesitate and agreed directly. It would be worth it for him to be loyal to such a person!

Gibson is not stupid either. The reason why he was willing to be loyal to Duke so quickly was naturally because he saw Duke's extraordinaryness. After all, how could a person who can possess such a magical artifact be average?

He said it was allegiance, but in fact it was more of a mutual use. He helped Duke work, and Duke kept him away from the black fog and away from losing control, which was a win-win situation.

But now, seeing Duke agreeing to his request to save his wife without hesitation, Gibson instantly felt that he was still too sinister and used each other. If he could save his wife, he would be willing to die!

Duke naturally didn't know what Gibson was thinking, he just felt that Gibson's eyes seemed to have become a little brighter.

But Duke didn't care much. In fact, he didn't care about both sides' use of each other, anyway, they all got what they wanted.

As for whether Gibson will be an ungrateful question, Duke is not very worried.

After the previous events and the second review, Duke could roughly see that Gibson was a person who loved his wife very much and could even die for his wife!

Such a person with the most affectionate nature will basically not become a 25-year-old, as long as you don’t have any evil intentions towards his wife.

Besides, Duke has the means to prevent him from being troubled by black fog!

This is undoubtedly more tempting than anything for an awakened person who has grown to his personal limits, and Carl is a good example.

With this big killer weapon, he didn't believe Gibson didn't know how to choose.

Of course, if all these judgments are wrong, Duke is not worried. He added some materials to this dormant pole before. Gibson's lack of force on his body is not entirely a side effect of the dormant pole, but the reason for these "materials".

Duke plans to let No. 2 observe for a few days. If Gibson is really an ungrateful person, don't blame him for being rude.

Duke took Xiaoxue's hand and took Gibson to the underground space.
