Chapter 31: The Gluttonous Body

Purple!

What catches my eye is a purple world, and in this purple world, there are pictures flashing.

It is the world through the eyes of the 'gluttonous individuals'.

They are hunting frantically and autophagy.

Where is this?

Wood didn't understand what he was in.

But I can feel my weakness.

A strong sense of lack swept in, as if something was urging me to keep devouring and evolving like those gluttonies.

It didn't take long for Wood to realize that he suddenly had a body.

After trying to move his hand, when he was sure he could, Wood lifted his hand and saw a pair of purple-skinned palms.

This discovery made the corners of Wood's mouth move slightly, and then he touched his face, and he breathed a sigh of relief after making sure it was still his own face.

The height of about 1.7 meters is no different from humans except that the skin is purple.

Wood thought back for a moment, remembering what had happened before he lost consciousness.

So I'm ......

He raised his head and looked beyond the purple world, and sure enough, he saw the three worlds of gold, green, and red, as well as several sleeping bodies in that world.

"Spirits?"

The corners of Wood's mouth twitched: "In other words, that 'gluttony' wanted to devour me, but was forcibly fused with me by the fusion system." ”

This is almost 100% confirmed, otherwise his soul world will not be divided into a new world.

But......

The faith of millions of Lori fanatics is really surprisingly strong, and the soul is divided again, and it is hard to bear it.

After a moment of deep thought, Wood turned his gaze to the occasional fragment of the purple world.

This is the connection between the gluttony that you have fused with other gluttonies.

Wood frowned when he saw those binge hunting gluttonies.

And......

Even through the picture, he seemed to be able to feel those gluttonous gazes.

They're looking at themselves.

It's a kind of gaze that chooses people and devours them, as if they want to ...... No, it should be said that he must be devoured.

Maybe it was the integration of the 'gluttony' relationship, and he vaguely understood something.

Note!

It's 'gluttony' and not 'gluttonous individuals'.

The 'gluttony' fused by Wood can be said to be a core-like existence, just like the core of the 'fusion group' in the world of Iron City, as long as the core does not die, no matter how you attack it, it will not cause any damage.

This is also the reason why gluttony has never been eliminated.

And the real 'gluttony' is the origin, and it is the creature that really has the ability to devour all genes to perfect itself.

But now Wood's body is extremely weak, even weaker than ordinary humans.

Because all the genes devoured by 'Gluttony' have been split, the current Gluttony only has the human genes that have fused with Wood.

But none of that matters......

The important thing is that the 'gluttonous individuals' are now completely insane, and if the 'gluttony' itself dies, these 'gluttonous individuals' will naturally cease to exist, but the current situation is that Wood has become a 'glutton' and has been disconnected from all the 'gluttonous individuals'.

Although the connection is broken, these gluttonies will instinctively devour the origin.

After all, if the origin is not there, even if these 'gluttonous individuals' merge into one, they will no longer be complete, and they will even gradually weaken and die.

That's why they are so anxious to maintain their individual existence through devouring and autophagy.

Other words......

The next step is to devour themselves.

Thinking of this, Wood's purple face turned white, and the original battle for survival turned into gluttony and unilaterally hunting himself......

It's not good just to think about it.

"Wood... Brother Wood...... Wake up..."

There was a faint voice, and as soon as Wood opened his eyes, the harsh sunlight made him squint.

"Brother Wood......

Anna's small head came into view of Wood, wearing a black witch's robe that was one size larger, as if it had been plucked from the witch's body.

Wood was about to get up, but his face changed.

Hunger.

The indescribable feeling of hunger arises spontaneously, not in the stomach, but in the demand of the whole body.

"Not really."

Wood looked at his purple palms, and his eyes almost didn't fall out.

It's actually a gluttonous body!!

Trying to switch, Wood found ...... I actually felt the feeling of entering the temple again.

In other words, before he leaves this world, he can only use his new body, which is not even comparable to ordinary humans, to resist the attack of gluttonous individuals.

What are you kidding!!

"You...... Is it Wood? ”

Nameless hesitated for a moment and asked.

Wood nodded weakly, you must know that even in the form of an ordinary human, he has a strength comparable to that of a ghost, and suddenly becoming so weak makes Wood feel awkward all over his body.

But now is not the time to care about such things.

"Quick, let's go."

Wood barely stood up with Anna's support, and said with a wry smile: "I stabbed the hornet's nest, we must meet with Saitama as soon as possible." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present couldn't help but be stunned.

"What's going on?"

Ohama asked with some confusion, and the faces of the rest of the people couldn't help but become solemn.

"In the future, I will probably be the target of all gluttonous individuals, and my current strength is not even as good as that of an ordinary human......"

Wood didn't hide it from a few people, and directly told a few people what happened to him and his conjectures, after all, before meeting with Saitama Sensei, the five of them were facing endless gluttony attacks, and it was better to give a few people a mental preparation in advance.

Ohama and Simuko, who had been watching Ohama write, both had their eyes lit up, and they said in unison: "In other words, as long as you ensure that your 'origin' is not devoured, even if you don't kill all the gluttonous individuals, gluttony will eventually disappear completely?" ”

"So to speak."

Wood smiled bitterly, "But then probably all the gluttony will be my ultimate goal, and after they devour it to a certain extent, they will all come to us." And I can't help anything, I can only be a burden, so I have to go to Saitama as soon as possible. ”

"Only Saitama-sensei can keep me from gluttony."

After hearing Wood's words, everyone's faces became solemn, except for Ohama and Smuko's eyes.

"Don't worry, even if my mother fights for this little life, she will never let you be devoured by gluttony."

"As long as you don't get devoured, it doesn't matter if any of us die."

Ben had already given up hope, but he didn't expect such a change to occur in the end.

It's been 100 years......

They finally have a chance to eradicate gluttony.

Anyway -

Wood can't be devoured by gluttony.

Smuko and O'Hama looked at each other, then said something that made Wood almost curse his mother.

"Hmm...... If it really doesn't work then, you will die once for our world, we promise...... Those gluttonous individuals can't even get your ashes. ”

“……”

Wood silently hid behind Nameless and Anna, who ......

The tone doesn't look like a joke at all.

"Rest assured... Feel relieved...... As a last resort, you'll die anyway, and it's better for the two of us to be killed if you are devoured by a gluttonous individual. Ohama comforted in a very gentle tone.

"Hmmm......"

The corners of Wood's mouth twitched: "I have a proposal, let's go our separate ways now, okay." ”

"Impossible!!"

Unanimous and unwavering.
