Chapter 85 (2/2)

“Infection….. Parasite.”

“Yes.”

Parasites do not distinguish between people and mutants. All life forms except kin are parasitic targets.

A variety of parasites exist in the virtual version, from level 1 to 8. The last level 8 is one of the 36 nightmares, and is truly frightening.

Like a level 8, its basic efficiency is excellent and its parasitic capacity is unmatched. If it erodes the brain of a level 9, it will go to the limbs.

Taking Evil Queen as an example, the body would be ripped into thousands of pieces before encroachment but that is how strong the grip on life is.

“So a flame thrower is absolutely necessary.”

“We are preparing a lot. It is difficult to bring damage with guns.”

The way to hunt parasites is just to kill the parasites in the host’s brain. If the host is killed, the parasites will just jump out and look for a new host.

Setting them on fire is more effective than aiming at each one with a gun. Even with bombs, fever shots are better than grenades.

“Ugh! Parasites.”

“Cheer up.”

Cha Jun Sung comforted Park Jin Hyuk. Looking at parasites digging their way out of their hosts makes them want to puke. Beyond its cruelty, it is disgusting.

“We’re leaving in 1 month. We will give you whatever item you want as compensation.”

Cha Jun Sung said that he understood. They will not do it willingly. They will not like it, but he needs to relay the conversation to Koharu and Kyoko first.

***

Cha Jun Sung is writing on a white sheet of paper with a pen. It is full of numbers that do not make sense. He calculated the urgent points.

There is a little less than 1 month left until they enter the advance mission. During that time, he compared the points they hoped for to the possible points.

“Should we try asking him to pull it forward? It’ll be okay if we just figure out the D class energy core.”

A C class can be produced with a D class. 3 to 7 are consumed in production. The more there are, the higher the possibility of success is. He can gather whatever is lacking until they enter.

However, he cannot catch all of the chickens. It means that he will need to give up either the 4th stage of body modifications or the C class energy core.

This is the same as taking someone else’s to complete my own. That is why he thought of the item he would get from Seven Stars and the government.

It is only a matter of time once Hercules’ energy core is resolved. He can ask the party members for help and Lim Si Hyun for an advance?

Cha Jun Sung is weak in these types of matters. He is confident if he is asking for a fair price, but he is asking for money before doing work in this situation.

“It’ll be revealed once we enter the mission anyway. Should I tell them it’s an advanced cyborg?”

It is actually not a middle class cyborg, but an advanced one. Once he purchases the parts, its power will show. So he needs to get an advance if he is thinking about the force’s safety.

Sometimes, taking it head on is the silver bullet. He is just revealing something that would come out, a month earlier. If they keep asking, he can just lie a bit.

Cha Jun Sung opened a chat room in the PDA and invited the party members. It is presumptuous, but he needs to discuss the Dead Ark.
