Chapter 107: Infection in the Night

Lynn's Reaper had already arrived at the Shadow Monster's hunt, and just after the Shadow Monster attacked the Occo Shark, the Reaper flew sideways into the jungle and slashed directly across the Shadow Monster's back with its first pair of bladed wings, but it wasn't deep, leaving only a blood-soaked scar.

"Ga ......"

The Shadow Monster let out a scream as it sprinted into the jungle, hiding within the intricately twisted trunks of trees and staring at the sky.

The Flyer crept behind the Shadow Monster, and Lynn could feel its pain...... and the love of doubt.

Yes, Lynn was puzzled when she noticed the Shadow Monster, and she was probably thinking about why the Reaper had found it, and that this operation should be very secretive.

The Reaper now flew into the night sky again for a spin, and swooped down again for the Shadow Monster's location!

The Shadow Monster could clearly see the Reaper's form glittering in the starlight, but it didn't dodge, probably thinking that the complex branches would protect it.

Obviously, that's not possible.

The Reaper's speed suddenly increased the moment he dived, and his bladed wings cut all the branches in two with a light gesture, and in less than half a second, the Reaper rushed to the side of the Shadow Monster from a height of tens of meters.

This time, it was much more than just scratching, as bladed wings slashed across the shadow monster's body, slicing its body in two along with the branch at its feet.

The Shadow Monster fell to the ground in two, and the Reaper crashed headlong into the dirt because he couldn't stop, but Lynn slowed down before it hit it, and now only the upper half of his body was stuck in the dirt. Soon to be able to climb out.

What made Lynn care was the Shadow Monsters. The creature didn't spew out any organs from the section of its body. Only some blood was shed, and it quickly stopped.

This made Lynn curious about how its body structure worked, but what was even more peculiar was that the upper and lower bodies of the Shadow Monsters actually crawled on the ground, and little by little they crawled on the ground towards the Reaper, whose head was plunged into the ground.

It's a tough feeling, and Lynn has seen some of these creatures that can stay alive even if their bodies are cut in two. It even regenerates, with some of the more primitive worms even cutting it into thousands of pieces, each of which grows into a new individual.

Lin thinks that this ability is useless, if the class is cut off, it is better to transform it into a blast bomb or just put it there to wait for recovery, and if it can be reborn, it is better to put enough nutrients in the body in advance, it is better to directly put more muscles to live longer.

However, the Shadow Monster is not expected to respawn, but it has the ability to stop bleeding instantly, and even if it is disconnected, it can survive for a while. At this moment, Lynn saw the tail of the shadow monster's lower body stand up, and it instantly pierced the reaper's abdomen. Then the Shadow Monster lay on the ground motionless as if the Suicide Class had completed its mission......

At this point, Lynn's Reaper finally pulled his body out of the dirt, the Reaper's short arthrops made it more troublesome to do, and at the same time, Rin already knew what the Shadow Monster was doing with its tail stuck to it, and it injected an egg into the Reaper's body.

It took only ten seconds for the egg to crack open, revealing not the usual creature that Lin had thought, but something extremely primitive—a virus.

Why a virus? Can Inca swarms make viruses? No, it's unlikely, maybe it's like Lynn who stored some kind of virus.

These viruses were completely unseen in Lynn, and they would quickly burrow into the Reaper's cells as soon as they came into contact with them, and then begin to destroy the entire cell inside......

I see...... So did the Shadow Monster inject the same egg into the Chocoshark just now? Is it possible to gain the other party's abilities in this way? The Inca swarm is supposed to break down the cells of other organisms through guò to gain power, although the details are not well understood, but the virus should not be possible.

Maybe they didn't want to acquire any abilities in the first place, but simply spread the virus?

Viruses are also the most primitive yet powerful creatures, they can kill multicellular organisms, no matter how powerful they are.

Except, of course, Lynn.

Lynn actually recently discovered a problem that viruses don't move.

That's right, when they come into contact with the cells, it's not they get into it, it's the reaction of the cells that phagocytose nutrients or something, and the cells swallow the virus themselves, and the virus can trick the cells into thinking that they are ingible.

However, although they deceived the cell, they couldn't fool Lynn.

As long as Lynn keeps the cells from swallowing, the virus is nothing, although sometimes Lin doesn't notice, so she just uses the old method of encapsulating the infected cells with chitin, so that the virus doesn't spread.

Viruses weren't really a big concern for Lynn, but they weren't the same for other creatures.

Lin then immediately sent out troops to find the chocobo shark that swam downstream, but Lin couldn't let the creature live.

Lynn's base was nearby, and Lynn had a large number of troops search, and as it was close to daylight, some of Lynn's predators found the chocobo shark in the lower reaches of the river, but it seemed to be too late.

Lynn found only a corpse with a large amount of blood oozing from its gills and mouth, and Lynn had the predators swallow the blood of some sharks, which was found to be mixed with a large amount of virus.

I feel like this is a bit of a problem......

These viruses are just mixing in the river and flowing downstream, so it seems that the Inca swarm is trying to attack the Twisted Jungle in such a troublesome way?

Does this really work? Lynn didn't think that these viruses could do any effective damage to the Twisted Jungle, so many species, it was quite easy to evolve resistance, and besides, it was absolutely impossible for a virus to be effective against all living things.

Lynn hadn't used this method a long time ago, even though the cells of the infected were still there.

It's better to use your own cells than to use these unstable things.

Viruses can't be controlled, this kind of thing is completely worthless, they don't do anything but keep killing cells.

However, the necessary tests still have to be done, Lin asked a flyer to fly in the air around the shark carcass to check the amount of the virus, Lin found that there was no air at all, it seems that it cannot be airborne, this virus that spreads so badly is really used to ......

Wait a minute...... What's that?

It was still night, and the flyer who was inspecting it in the air suddenly saw a strange round sphere in the starry sky below the sky, this sphere was relatively large, and it also radiated light, and it was extra conspicuous under the stars.

"Month, coming." Lynn's thoughts suddenly appeared with the words of the head worm. (To be continued......)
