Chapter 254 – 254. Harmony

I felt like something was fighting inside my body.

Buruk!!!

The muscles all over my body swelled and contracted several times, and blood poured out of my mouth.

“Ugh, ugh!!! Why, why are you doing this!!!”

“Fuck. I don’t know.”

Beside her, Arima held her head as she screamed. As her body grew bigger and smaller, she repeatedly looked at me like I was a ghost.

‘It hurts so bad.’

I felt like I was going out of my mind from the pain. By that time, Agaf had decided what was going on and quickly provided feedback on the situation.

[The parasite inside the body and the nanobot just injected are colliding! While each other is killing each other, your body is collapsing!]

“Keuuuuu!!! Uh, what should I do.!!!”

[Wait a minute, let’s start with the pain…]

Agaf used my magic power to cast an unknown spell.

In an instant, the pain that was swirling around my brain disappeared to some extent.

“Wow. “Wow!!!”

However, the blood did not stop pouring out of the mouth.

[I just erased the pain for now. To be able to move. Your body is still collapsing.]

“Fuck. I’m going crazy.”

“Oh no, what on earth is going on.!”

“Nanobots and alien organisms are fighting each other in my body.”

“Yes!?”

Arima looked at me with eyes that said, ‘As expected, that bastard wasn’t human.’

“Is it called a parasitic tree? It is a plant with red roots that burrows into living things or corpses and takes over the body.”

“No way, isn’t that… Trevi Grove? Oh, my!! Crazy space parasite!!!!”

“What is that again. Kuheook.”

“A monstrous creature that wanders through outer space, attaches itself to a spaceship or meteorite, and then preys on all living organisms that fall on the planet.”

It looks like he knows something. Well, these bastards probably came from a universe where Hero exists, not our universe, so they probably have information about the parasitic order.

“Hey, first, don’t come any closer.!! “Trevi Grove is very contagious.”

“I’m sorry, but this guy follows my orders.”

“Yes?”

“I said I tamed it. Similar to nanobots, it has the ability to heal wounds and parasitize the opponent, turning them into subordinates. No shit, I explained it further! “Can’t nanobots and parasites coexist?”

The tips of my toes and fingers began to tremble. If I leave it like this, my body will truly collapse. I had to find a way quickly.

There was a way to get help from the evil spirit, but if his life was saved directly, the intervention of the evil spirit would become more severe, so he had to resolve the situation on his own.

If you continue to receive help, you will eventually become completely dependent.

“Now, just a moment. “First, I will draw some blood.”

“Uh.”

Pakak.

“OMG! Lord, the needle!”

It was broken.

“Fuck. “Isn’t it okay to vomit up blood?”

“Oh, wait a minute!”

Arima was worried that he might get infected by a parasite, so he put on gloves, collected the blood that spilled on the floor, and ran somewhere.

“Hey!! Where are you going!!!”

“Uh, infirmary!!! Follow me! “I will ask Mother to analyze it!”

I followed Arima to her infirmary.

The infirmary was quite run down, as if it had been abandoned for a long time.

Well, there is no way the machine race would use the infirmary created for humans. I guess it just feels like it was left in name only.

Honestly, it’s more surprising that they didn’t tear it down and build something else.

“Please lie down on the table first.”

Arima told me to lie down on her surgical table and let my blood flow into the inlet of her unknown machine.

Mother is probably trying to analyze my blood and find a solution. Or pull out the nanobots.

Anything is fine, so I hope it ends quickly. It doesn’t hurt, but it’s difficult because it feels like my internal organs are falling apart in real time.

“Wow.”

Even now, blood and flesh were pouring out of the mouth. I’m going crazy. Even my nose and eyes seem to turn red. Why are these crazy people fighting and fucking around in front of others?

[Ah, try using soul extortion.]

“Huh? Ah!”

Come to think of it, I see there was a recovery skill.

Soul Extortion is a skill that steals the soul of a killed target and stores it as a recovery agent.

They have already killed over a hundred people on the way here. If you include the barbarians and machine men, they killed countless people.

I immediately changed the stored spirit and treated the sore stomach.

“Oh!!!”

When the skill was used, the collected soul disappeared and the body recovered. I continued to heal my body, and the nanobots and parasitic tree continued to fight, destroying the body that was recovering in real time.

Endless physical collapse. Endless self-recovery. Insane hemoptysis.

Just as my soul began to drain, Arima informed me of the results of the analysis.

“Well, we’d better get rid of Trevi Groove and all the nanobots. It’s virtually impossible to fuse the two.”

“No!!!”

Dani took them both out! This cannot happen.

“Then we have to take out the nanobots!”

“Holy shit. Let it go.”

“Yes. Then you need sedative anesthesia.”

“Ah.”

I have a body that is impervious to drugs.

Even if I drink alcohol, I don’t get drunk. Because the resistance stat is too high. In short, anesthesia is impossible.

“Go right away without anesthesia.”

“Oh, the pain.”

There is Agap. It will ease the pain to some extent.

“Then we will start the surgery right away.”

“Good.”

Soon the ceiling of the infirmary opened and a bunch of things that looked like Doctor Octopus’ mechanical arms came down.

“It may hurt.”

To what extent does Agap suffer…

******

“Fuck.”

When I opened my eyes, I was still in the infirmary.

I think I fainted for a moment because I was in so much pain. There is no need for an anesthetic for this.

“Ugh…”

I sat up.

The clothes he had been wearing were already torn, and Arima was slumped on a chair, drinking coffee brewed somewhere.

“What happened?”

[About 7 hours have passed since you passed out. That guy injected something and soon his body stabilized.]

“So… What are these things stuck in your body?”

There was an unknown patch attached.

“It’s an item that has a pain-relieving effect. “You can wash it off after two hours.”

“Huh. What is the situation?”

“I tried to take out the nanobots, but I failed.”

“What?”

“Mother has stabilized the nanobots. Perhaps Trevi Groove will no longer be perceived as an enemy. Trevi Groove has also accepted the nanobots for some reason.”

“Really?”

“Yes. And one peculiarity was discovered.”

“Uh.”

“The nanobot was devoured by a parasitic tree.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“I mean it literally. “I don’t really know what this phenomenon is, but two entities have fused together.”

“…”

The parasitic tree swallowed the nanobot. As if reinforcing it. Arima seemed to have given up on understanding this whole situation. It seems like they are just trying to sympathize with what is and move on.

[Ejection is possible for parasitic trees. This means…]

“The story that nanobots have also become capable of injection.”

I slightly extended my hand forward and conveyed my will to the parasitic tree nestled inside me.

Pusssss.

“Crazy.”

After eating the nanobot, a strengthened parasitic tree spewed out from the fingertips, turning into smoke and floating on the palm.

“Ugh!!!”

Arima took a step back. The fear of parasites seemed to be great.

“This is awesome.”

I tried manipulating the nano parasitic tree floating on the palm of my hand.

“Something worth experimenting with…”

When the nano parasites were fired at the immediately visible flask, the flask instantly turned into unrecognizable powder.

“Wow.”

Nanobots can now be used as attackers rather than for treatment.

“Hehe.”

This feels pretty good.

I feel like I gained a new skill that I never thought of.

[Anyway, when it comes time to really fight, I forget and just go out with my fists first.]

“Please refrain from using facts.”

[…

After silencing Agaf, I took care of the rest.

It was to take out the remaining items from the labyrinth and pick up the magic stones and awakening stones of the dead people.

******

“I’m back… Wow.”

As soon as I got out of the labyrinth, I was faced with a crowded crowd.

“A lot of heretics came.”

“There were this many living heretics?”

“It seems like everyone in Ulsan and Jinju followed suit.”

“Ho.”

It’s such a huge crowd. These people survived by believing in evil spirits.

Yeongsik looked very distressed. I feel drained trying to lead so many people.

“Um, Apostle.!!”

“Huh?”

“There is an apostle in Seoul too.”

At that time, one of the heretics reported that there was an apostle in Seoul.

“A woman?”

“Yes. They say they robbed the survivor camp in Incheon and rapidly increased their power. And…”

“And.”

“Controlling the ghouls. The condition of the ghouls.”

“Is it a fusion ghoul?”

“Oh, that’s not it. It’s a red ghoul. And we are controlling several special zombies.”

In addition, he gave me information that he was using some strange magic.

Sado in Seoul. A female who mainly deals with ghouls and special zombies.

‘It’s in Seoul.’

I guess I’ll have to go up to Seoul again soon.

The apostle vowed to kill everyone he encountered.

Except for me, the other apostles are not in the right condition, so it is better to find them and kill them immediately.

Above all, the apostles were competing with each other, so it was clear that if the apostle woman found me, she would try to kill me.

So it would be better to go and kill him first.
