Chapter 168: Take It First Translator: Nyoi-Bo StudioEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xiao Jing: “After the mother worm that parasitized the nemesis died, the mother worm’s egg sac ruptured. The undead larvae left the ruptured egg sac and began to search for a new host.” Xiao Jing: “In most cases, a small number of larvae will choose to continue infecting the corpse.” Xiao Jing: “After some time, the larvae will grow back into a new mother worm within the nemesis. It will once again control the nemesis, which is what we see as ‘resurrection’.” Lucia raised the muzzle of her gun and aimed it at the worm. “Bang!” The worm shattered into a ball of purple pus. ‘Mo Jiawei: “What? According to what you said, the nemesis can be resurrected indefinitely and never die?” Xiao Jing: “Theoretically speaking, if the intensity of the instant output is sufficient, killing the mother worm and the mother worm’s eggs directly can destroy the nemesis. This has happened before.” Xiao Jing: “In addition, after the mother worm dies, you can try to destroy all the larvae and worms, burning them continuously with high intensity or using corrosive chemicals to damage the nemesis’s corpse.” Xiao Jing: “But in this way, the larvae in the nemesis’s body will be stimulated, and there is a chance that they will immediately grow into adult worms and take over the body completely, allowing the nemesis to enter the fourth form.” Xiao Jing: “The fourth form is irreversible. The nemesis will be taken over by the adult and become an ugly monster. Its mobility will also be greatly reduced and it will no longer have the ability to resurrect.” Xiao Jing: “Destroying the nemesis in its fourth form will also be able to completely kill it.” Xiao Jing: “The information regarding the nemesis mentioned above is a top-secret of the Federation. Please do not divulge it to the public, Thank you.” Larva? Fang Heng sized up the disgusting creature. Fang Heng: “How’s the attack power of the larva? Is it contagious?” Xiao Jin; ‘m not sure, I don’t have any more information.” Fang Heng: “Then how long does the resurrection time of the nemesis take?” Xiao Jing: “It depends on the specific situation. Usually, it might take one to three to four hours. If we can freeze the corpse, burn it continuously, or find a way to put it in a bad environment, we can slow down its resurrection speed.” Fang Heng: “I got it. Thank you.” It was very troublesome! Fang Heng felt that the nemesis was more difficult to deal with than the two Tier 4 mutated zombies he had encountered last time. Continuous high-intensity flame burning? Corrosive chemicals? This was a chemical plant. If it was sulfuric acid… It would probably have been destroyed in the explosion just now. Unfortunately. On second thought, even if he forced out the nemesis’s fourth form, could he win? “Fang Heng, what should we do?” Lucia stopped shooting. She was a little anxious. ‘There were simply too many worms. A large number of worm creatures had already entered the body of the nemesis. Shooting like this would not have any useful effect. “There’s no need to waste bullets. Think of a way to slow down its resurrection time.” In any case, he could not deal with the fourth form of the nemesis. Why not take some benefits from the nemesis and think of a way to delay her resurrection time… And then run away! After making up his mind, Fang Heng turned his head and said, “Lucia, go and see if there’s anything nearby that you can use.” “Yes, alright!” Lucia nodded and raised her gun to explore the burning plant. Fang Heng carefully sized up the nemesis who was in the ‘fake death’ state. Then, he controlled a vine zombie to stagger to the front. Fang Heng handed the zombie an empty glass bottle. The zombie continued to stagger forward until it reached the side of the nemesis. It slowly squatted down. “Pada!” ‘The glass bottle covered the worm. Fang Heng carefully controlled the vine zombie to put the worm into the glass bottle and tightened the cap. [Hint: Your zombie clone has obtained a glass bottle containing an unknown creature*1.] [Hint: This item is of high risk and can not be put into the backpack.} Got it! Fang Heng secretly cheered in his heart. Aspecial worm that could control the nemesis. Its research value was not small! What if Qiu Yaokang could find a way to turn the zombie clone into the nemesis… The zombie clone returned with the bottle and walked to Fang Heng. Fang Heng didn’t reach out to take it. It was too risky to carry it with him, so it was better to store it first. With that thought, he controlled the zombie clone to return with the bottle and hide in the sewer. ‘Then, Fang Heng waved his hand again. Another five zombie clones walked up. ‘When they passed by Fang Heng, each of them took out a few live sample collectors. “As expected of an S-level character. Qiu Yaokang has foresight. He even predicted that I would encounter such a situation.” Fang Heng smiled helplessly. He had brought enough sample collectors this time! The vine zombie walked to the side of the nemesis one by one. Several channelling bars appeared above their heads at the same time. {Hint: Your zombie clone has completed the live sample collection of the nemesis.] {Hint: Your zombie clone has completed…] [Hint: Collection failed. Your zombie clone is unable to collect more samples!] Fang Heng only let go of the nemesis when the game hint failed to collect more live samples. The zombies handed over all the collected samples to Fang Heng one by one. [Hint: You have obtained the live sample of the nemesis*24.] What should he do next? Fang Heng was hesitating when Lucia’s voice came through the communication device. Lucia: “Fang Heng, I saw a warehouse on the east side of the plant. We can think of a way to place the nemesis there.” Fang Heng: “Alright, I’ll be right there.” “Let’s go take a look at Lucia.” Fang Heng closed his communicator and continued to control the vine zombies. Six zombie clones extended out fine vines from their bodies and wrapped around the ‘corpse’ of the nemesis. Fang Heng led the way while the six vine zombies followed behind, dragging the ‘corpse’ of the nemesis as they slowly moved forward. Soon, Fang Heng saw Lucia in the burning ruins of the chemical plant. “Fang Heng, what do you think of that?” Lucia pointed at a burning chemical tank not far away. Due to the previous explosion, the entire tank had been affected, and only two-thirds of it was left. ‘The tank was filled with an unknown liquid, which was constantly burning and emitting a pungent smell. Fang Heng did not know what kind of liquid was in the jar, but there was a warning sign of a poisonous object drawn on the jar. It was most likely a chemical poison. Moreover, it looked like it was a combustible substance. It seemed like it could burn for a while longer. Fang Heng’s eyes lit up. This seemed to be a good place to dispose of it! “Lucia, be careful. Let’s stay away from it.” “Okay.”
