Chapter 97: The body of pollutants is really disgusting
The contaminant swallowed the finger and the box together, and both the big guy and Jim were stunned.
This was obviously an unexpected situation for them, especially for the big guy who had once belonged to the Devil's Army.
Because in his understanding, pollutants do not have much intelligence. Apart from their instinctive eating, they spend most of their time wandering aimlessly in polluted areas, and only attack when they find intruders. It is difficult to find a very clear "purpose" in them.
But now, the dying pollutant swallowed the box of fingers at the last moment, which obviously did not mean to have a good meal before dying.
The big guy once again felt alert. He was regretting why he didn't just cut the grass and root it out, but now he didn't have time to think about it. His experience as a member of the Devil's Army told him that "wait and see" was definitely not a good option at this time.
So he once again drove the four robotic arms that had not yet recovered from [overload] and immediately walked towards the pollutants.
The contaminant was in a very strange state at the moment. It looked like a piece of intestine that had become abnormal due to eating something it shouldn't have. It was constantly wriggling and making a "gurgling" sound. It didn't react at all to the big guy that was approaching quickly.
So the big guy immediately drove four robotic arms to attack the pollutant.
Without the blessing of [Overload], there is naturally no way to reproduce the pile driver effect like just now, but it is enough to kill the infected creature in front of him.
At least that's what the big guy thought.
Jim also thought that the big guy would get rid of the contaminant soon. Although he was very disturbed by the contaminant's behavior of swallowing his finger, there were enough things that made him feel uneasy tonight, and now Carl's blood was still on his face. So he just wanted to end it all quickly and go home to take a bath. If possible, he never wanted to go on a mission with the big guy again, so as not to repeat Carl's mistake.
A bunch of thoughts flashed through Jim's mind, but he soon realized something was wrong.
Why is it so quiet in the room?
Hasn't the big guy taken action yet?
Jim raised his head and looked towards the big guy's position. From his angle, he could only see the big guy's back and the four fully extended mechanical arms.
The four outstretched robotic arms did not fall.
Why... not attack?
Jim was a little dazed.
At this moment, the uneasiness in his heart was magnified again, so he suppressed his fear, moved his butt slightly, moved to the side of the big guy, and immediately widened his eyes.
He finally understood why the four robotic arms couldn't smash down.
Because they were caught by four other "hands".
The big guy's eyes were full of fear at this moment. He had served in the Devil Army for so many years and had never encountered the current situation.
The pollutants in front of him actually grew into four arms. These were not tentacles, nor were they claws. They were four distinct human arms, and each arm even had five clearly visible fingers!
How is this possible!?
What made the big guy even more panic was that the body of the pollutant was still squirming, and soon, it tore open a crack that looked like a mouth.
And finally made a sound with it.
"Oh? So a body like this can withstand my coming?"
The big guy didn't know what this meant, nor did he know what was talking to him!
Is it that finger? It must be that weird finger?!
The big guy felt even more regretful.
But it doesn’t matter, there’s still time, there’s definitely still time!
The cooldown of [Overload] is about to end. No matter what this thing is, as long as it is still made of pollutants, it will not be able to stop the attack of [Overload]!
The big guy has already started warming up the four robotic arms.
He firmly believed that as long as he entered [Overload] again, everything would be reversed!
Just once more...
The big guy's eyes widened little by little.
Because the pollutants in front of them have already ignited.
In the reflection of the big guy's pupils, the strange posture with fire was rapidly enlarging.
This is also the last scene that the big guy sees.
Two minutes later.
The pollutant, which had been burned into charcoal and had four arms, limped out of the house in a very distorted posture.
It hadn't taken a few steps when it fell to the ground with a thud.
After a twitch,
He vomited out an intact middle finger.
And then there was no life at all.
…
On the other side, Jellal felt something coming back to him.
He knew that this was Bai Wei.
Ever since he had this eye grafted on, Jellal has always been able to feel the presence of another soul in his body, and he has become somewhat accustomed to it.
Until just now, Bai Wei said that he was going to deal with something on the other side, and then there was no sound. Gerard also clearly felt that a part of his body was suddenly empty, and he knew that Bai Wei had left.
But now, Bai Wei is back.
Although he was quite curious about Bai Wei's ability to move on various corpses, Gerard did not ask questions, but asked a more valuable question: "What happened?"
"It's resolved." Bai Wei said in a bad tone, "But you still have to hurry back to deal with the three bodies and the remains of a pollutant in your home."
Three, three dead bodies and the remains of a pollutant?!
Gerald almost collapsed.
How long had Bai Wei been gone? He had already killed three invaders and a pollutant?
How did you do that? It's just a finger over there!
If you have this fighting ability, why do you still stay in my body?
Isn't this a waste of talent?
When Gerard heard Bai Wei's words, a bunch of strange thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, but he still resisted the urge to ask Bai Wei questions one by one, because he felt that Bai Wei's tone just now was very bad, so he asked: "Are you... injured?"
"My soul is all that's left. How could I be hurt?" Bai Wei said unhappily.
Hearing this full-bodied voice and not sounding like he was injured, Gerard became even more confused: "Then what happened to you?"
Bai Wei was silent for a while and sighed heavily.
"A body filled with pollutants is really disgusting."
Gerard: “……?”
Faced with Jellal's doubts, Bai Wei did not give any further explanation. After all, it was Jellal who wanted to be transparent to him, not him who was transparent to Jellal. It was necessary to maintain a certain sense of mystery.
But he was indeed feeling very uncomfortable now. For one thing, it was very "exhausting" for his soul to move between the corpses. Although it would not directly consume his soul, it would make him feel extremely tired.
Secondly, as he just said, a body filled with pollutants is really disgusting.
Of course, what he meant by disgusting was that it was disgusting to manipulate.
Just like what Gerald had always said, the human brain cannot control too many parts that do not belong to it, so Tianqin has always prohibited the addition of additional metal parts to the body. The same is true for Bai Wei. The body of the pollutant and the human body are two completely different structures, so controlling it will bring him a great sense of discomfort. After experiencing it once, he never wants to experience it again.
Moreover, the pollutant itself is too weak. Although it has a soul, the soul is very chaotic and weak. It can be used as fuel for the second-level descent, but it will only burn out in two minutes, leaving no residue.
For a body and soul like this, being able to kill two guys who didn't have much power to fight back in seconds like what it did just now is already the limit. We can't ask it to do more.
But think about it, if Bai Wei can get something like this delivered to his door at will, then is there any need for him to "cheat" here every day?
Wouldn't it be better to just drill into the contaminated area?
But putting these aside, Bai Wei was also surprised that the pollutants themselves could serve as a carrier of the disaster.
But he could also think of the general reason.
This is the attraction between the corpses. The pollutants affected by the tongue deep in the contaminated area will naturally want to get close to the finger with the same breath, and even swallow the finger and sacrifice themselves for the finger. This should be regarded as an extension of the tongue's instinct.
So the pollutants are there tonight not by accident, but because they were attracted by the finger.
...But then again, before Bai Wei came here, Gerard himself was also attracting pollutants. According to Gerard, pollutants would come to him every few days, and he had made a lot of preparations for this.
So why is this?
The pollutants come to the fingers because they are affected by the tongue.
Then why did you look for Gerard?
Bai Wei fell into deep thought.
What exactly happened to him in the polluted land ten years ago?
Just then, Bai Wei heard Gerald whisper, "Here it comes."
Hmm? What's coming?
Bai Wei also looked over and saw a familiar person striding towards him at the end of the cell.
Bai Wei also knew this person, it was Kud.
"The time has come, Gerard." Kud said to Gerard while standing in front of the cell.
Gerard turned his head and looked at the clock on the wall, then said in a deep voice: "You have no right to lock me up if you delete the book. I haven't done anything wrong. This is against the rules."
Kud pursed his lips but didn't explain anything. He just asked the knight behind him to come up and unlock the door.
Bai Wei's voice rang out slowly in Jellal's mind: "It seems that you have also realized that they have begun to use things other than the rules to deal with you."
Jellal narrowed his eyes, but he said nothing.
After unlocking the door, he walked straight out without even looking at Kud.
But before he took two steps, Coode called him.
"Wait, Gerald." Kud said slowly, "I'll take you back."
