The "human" fused with the parasite's head was cut in half by the ghoul overlord. Maybe it was a relief for her, right?
The further you go, the more similar "human" parasites appear. Even though he thinks they are pitiful, Jia Zhengjin does not hesitate to order the zombie overlord and the psychedelic clones to attack, leaving no one behind.
The team kept moving forward, going deeper and deeper into the maze step by step.
There are more and more parasites on the way, along with countless skeletons blocking the way.
The zombie overlord and the psychedelic clones are getting rid of them slower and slower. After all, there are too many ants, and it will take time to crush them all.
After walking for about five or six hours, the three of them stopped to rest for a while. After starting again, a nanobug returned and sent an interesting image.
It also came to a dead end, but at the end of the dead end, there was a humanoid creature wrapped in strange silk threads and embedded in the red pimple wall.
The skin of this humanoid creature is pale and skinny. Although it has a head, a body, hands and feet, and facial features like a human being, other than that, the whole body is just smooth white skin wrapping the bones inside.
.
It has no clothes on its body, no hair on its head, its head is bare, and no organs similar to humans can be seen below the head, so it is impossible to determine its gender. Perhaps it is simply an asexual creature.
The humanoid creature looked quite weak. It was panting slightly inside the red pimple wall and seemed to be in great pain with its eyes closed. Many parasites were moving around the periphery, preying on the nutrient spheres leading to it, and none of them were missed.
"Oh my god! What is this?" Olivia covered her mouth and looked at the humanoid creature in the image with a surprised expression.
Jia Zhengjin shook his head, saying that he didn't know either, and turned to look at Aipal.
Aipal stared blankly at the strange human figure in the image, blinked his eyes, and shook his head as well.
"Go and have a look!" Jia Zhengjin became curious and requested.
The zombie overlord and the psychedelic clone immediately took the lead and moved towards the location of the strange humanoid.
Kill parasites along the way and finally reach your destination.
After the surrounding parasites were killed, nutrient spheres finally flowed to this strange humanoid along the bloodstream, and were immediately absorbed when they came into contact with its body.
"What on earth is this?" Olivia circled around it curiously, but did not dare to get close.
Jia Zhengjin stepped forward and tried to gently touch its head with his right index finger, but suddenly received a prompt.
[System] Trigger side mission—pest removal!
[System] Due to the increasing number of parasites, the guardian's nutrition is cut off and unable to move. Eliminate 500 parasites so that the guardian can return to normal!
[System] The current mission progress is 477/500, and one parasite still needs to be killed!
[System] Mission reward: 1,000 gold coins, 5 million experience points, and an elite treasure chest!
Guardian, what?
I have killed 477 parasites along the way, and I am just short of completing the mission. After completing it, I can get 1,000 gold coins, 5 million experience points and a treasure chest. Although I don’t know what the treasure chest can open, it is easy to find parasites.
Finishing it on the way is not a problem.
Seeing the system prompt, Jia Zhengjin immediately ordered the corpse overlord and the psychedelic clone to look back for the parasite and kill it.
After a while, the number of 500 was successfully collected.
A steady stream of nutrient spheres began to flow rapidly along the bloodstream and quickly integrated into the body of the guardian.
The guard's originally shriveled and thin body gradually began to swell and gradually came out of the red bumpy wall. When he came out completely, he turned around and ran back without even looking at Jia Zhengjin and the others.
"Lord Keen!" Olivia had a surprised expression all the way, and now she was pointing at the guardian with wide eyes.
Aipal looked at him very curiously.
Jia Zhengjin received the reward given by the system and automatically put it into the virtual backpack. He didn't have time to check what the elite treasure chest could bring. When he saw the guardian running away, he immediately followed quickly: "Let's go over and have a look!"
The three of them ran after the guardian, and soon saw a parasite appearing in front of them.
As a result, before Jia Zhengjin could order the corpse overlord and the psychedelic clone to come forward, the guardians had already rushed over and started fighting the parasites.
His combat power is also pretty good. He can kill a giant parasite in about two or three rounds, which is slightly better than the Ghoul Overlord and the Psychedelic Clone.
After that, he kept wandering around, searching for and attacking parasites, without saying a word from beginning to end, and turning a blind eye to Jia Zhengjin and the others.
When encountering a skeleton, he will rush over and attack decisively.
"How rude! We obviously saved him, but we didn't even say thank you." Olivia frowned and said after watching for a while.
"He shouldn't be able to speak!" Aipal said. "If this is the body of a Titan, then it is probably a special existence that occurs naturally and is designed to fight parasites."
"It's similar to the immune system in the human body, right?" Jia Zhengjin somewhat understood, "So he has no thinking and can only rely on instinct."
"Immune system?" Aipal looked at Jia Zhengjin in confusion, "Although I don't know where you learned these strange words, but they seem to be able to describe this situation."
"Since he specializes in dealing with parasites, why did he almost die?" Olivia asked curiously, "and was surrounded by a group of parasites."
"It should be that there are too many parasites, and the nutrients delivered to him are also cut off, so he has no fighting ability and can only hide in the red wall to protect himself for the time being." Jia Zhengjin said, "If there are parasites in the human body,
Too much, and the immune system can't bear it, so it needs external treatment. Either taking medicine, or using healing magic..."
"Oh~" Olivia understood, "So that's it!"
"You know a lot about these strange things?" Aipal asked doubtfully.
"More or less!" Jia Zhengjin couldn't explain that all his knowledge came from his previous life, so he touched his nose and said, "It seems that there is no problem on this side. He will also clean up the parasites in the block. Let's move forward.
Bar?"
"Hmm! Are there more immunities like this inside?" Olivia followed him and asked curiously.
"I can't say for sure! There shouldn't be only one immune system." Jia Zhengjin replied, "It seems that there are too many parasites and skeletons in this titan's body for no reason, which makes the immune system unable to cope with it, so the current situation has occurred.
"
"Is all this related to that strange sound?" Aipal lowered his head and thought.
"Well! It's probably that baby-like voice. It keeps attracting humans and is definitely the culprit of this situation!" Jia Zhengjin nodded, "Our trip is probably to find it and eliminate it!" (To be continued!
