Infinite Horror: The Strongest Zhongzhou Team

"In the previous horror movie, when facing the insectoids, the strongest eye's power was indeed powerful, but the burden on the body was too great."

"So if possible, I'd like to exchange for an item or skill that can enhance my physical abilities."

"Ideally, it should directly or indirectly enhance my endurance and combat capabilities."

The members of the Central Continent Team nodded in agreement.

At this moment, Zero Point can be said to have maximized its destructive power.

In the world of Resident Evil, it looks tough and they've gone through a lot.

But in reality, it didn't consume too many precious one-time use items.

Of course, it was also because the various magical treasures obtained from the ruins were too powerful.

Li Xiao looked up, about to speak, when he heard Chu Xuan say to Zhu Wen:

"Zhu Wen, use your captain privileges to search and see what recommendations the main god has for the Zero Point Enhancement."

Upon hearing this, Li Xiao remembered that the captain also had this ability.

It's just that Zheng Zha hadn't used it much before, which is why everyone had forgotten about it.

Zhu Wen, who was trying to communicate with the main god for the first time, asked the question as Chu Xuan had instructed.

Images began flashing rapidly in her mind, and soon Zhu Wen opened her eyes.

"So, what recommendations does the Supreme God have?"

Li Xiao looked at Zhu Wen and quickly asked, "I'm coming to my senses."

Under everyone's gaze, Zhu Wen exhaled and said:
"Perhaps it's because Zero's body is currently enhanced by a viral bloodline."

Although Chu Xuan created them, they were recognized by the main god, so most of the bloodlines he received were viral.

"For example, the DX-118C virus in Prototype, as well as the Red Light Virus, the Nest Virus, the Spore Virus, and so on."

"Their abilities vary. For example, the Mother Nest Virus can evolve rapidly according to its surrounding environment, becoming more heat-resistant in hot places and more cold-resistant in cold places, and so on."

"Spore viruses can release atomic-level spores to parasitize other organisms or modify their bodies with hyphae."

"That means developing your own followers, and some items, including the GANTZ enhanced suit and Iron Man's armor, from the most basic Mark III to the nano-level Mark Fifty, are all on the recommended list..."

Chu Xuan interrupted Zhu Wen's introduction:
"These are pretty much what I thought. They are all advanced forms of the viral bloodline, along with external auxiliary tools. There should be something else, what is it?"

Although Zhu Wen had long known that Chu Xuan's wisdom far surpassed that of others, she still couldn't help but sigh at his affirmation.

"Yes, there are indeed other things, such as Venom and Parasites, which are neither bloodlines nor props."

The former should be considered a bio-armor, somewhat similar to the GANTZ enhanced suit, while the latter is more like a pet, or battle pet.

After thinking for a moment, Zhu Wen continued:

"We've seen Venom in other teams. After being possessed, it can indeed greatly enhance physical attributes and provide superior combat and defensive capabilities."

Furthermore, this thing has another advantage: it doesn't require a designated owner and can be used by other people.

"For parasites, you need to select a part of the body other than the brain."

"The selected part possesses the property of immortality; even if it is destroyed or severed, it can regenerate and form a unique life form."

As she spoke, Zhu Wen's expression changed slightly:
"As for the others, there is one that is completely unrelated, and I don't even know why it exists."

Upon hearing this description, not only Zero but also Saito and the others became curious.

Chen Zilong asked excitedly, "Completely unrelated bloodlines? What? Could it be...?"

Before he could finish his sassy remark, Zhu Wen interrupted him, saying, "Fine, shut up. He's Saiyan blood."

Upon hearing this, the infant Cheng Xiao was stunned for a moment, then slumped onto the table and shouted:
"how is this possible?"

"Wasn't Zero's bloodline created by Chu Xuan?"

"What does the virus have to do with Saiyan blood?"

"Why would the Supreme God recommend this?"

Cheng Xiao looked exactly like someone who had been forced to wear a green hat.

So much so that Li Xiao and Chen Zilong couldn't help but burst out laughing when they saw this exaggerated expression.

Zhu Wen rubbed her temples and said, "I was surprised at first, but after thinking about it, it's not so bad."

It's important to know that Saiyan bloodlines are an advanced type, ranging from the most basic D-rank to S-rank.

"What's most special about this bloodline is that its vitality, recovery ability, resilience, and tolerance to extreme environments are no less than those of viral bloodlines."

"Moreover, it is more average, and its biggest advantage is that it has a higher ceiling and is not a one-off deal."

"Compared to the virus bloodline and the tools, this Saiyan bloodline is the one with the most potential for growth."

Zhu Wen paused, then said, "Although the Saiyan bloodline doesn't explicitly state that one will definitely transform into a Super Saiyan."

I think this should be a self-created skill similar to an explosion or a burst of light.

But even without it, the energy that comes with bloodline has many uses.

"After B-level, there are even more techniques such as the Flying Technique, the Kamehameha, and the Solar Flare."

Zhu Wen didn't expect that if she hadn't brought it up, things would have been fine, but as soon as she did, Lingdian, who had initially been interested, immediately refused.

Zero was usually a quiet person, but since it concerned his own enhancement, he spoke seriously:
"It's about quality, not quantity. If I were alone, I might redeem this, but in a team, I'd prefer to redeem abilities that can help me with sniping."

"So, let's forget about the Saiyan bloodline..."

After speaking at midnight, he remained silent for a moment.

"If I could, I would prefer to exchange for a Parasite."

Chu Xuan nodded.

"Just as I thought, although Venom is more powerful, it doesn't offer any assistance in long-range sniping capabilities."

Compared to this bio-suit, the parasite can directly enhance physical attributes after possessing a body.

What's most special is that it can select a part of its body to transform into a special life form with immortality.

It fits your right hand perfectly, so even if you are seriously injured, you can still launch an attack in extreme circumstances.

"At least it won't be like in Alien where you lose your hand and can only wait to die."

Saito slapped his forehead and said with a wry smile, "Don't be so pessimistic, but is it really okay for these parasites to live inside the body?"

Chu Xuan said calmly, "You can think of this parasite as Cheng Xiao's slug, or Li Xiao's Moss."

"Although the name means parasite, it is actually in a symbiotic relationship with humans, sharing both prosperity and adversity."

With Chu Xuan's affirmation, Zero Point no longer hesitated.

Li Xiao looked at Lingdian, walked over, and patted the other person on the shoulder.

It can be said that the most trustworthy person in the entire Zhongzhou team is this one who is usually silent.

No, it should be said that among the entire team, this person is also the one that everyone trusts and relies on the most.

Zero, with a perfectly normal expression, walked towards the main god, not at all like someone going to exchange for enhancements for themselves, but more like someone going home to get something.

There were no extra expressions.

He walked to the foot of the main god and stopped, then immediately closed his eyes.

As confirmation and reward points were deducted, Zero began to rise into the air amidst a white beam of light.

Before long, half of his body was enveloped by white light spots.

Upon witnessing this scene, Chen Zilong murmured:
"I don't know why, but it feels like I haven't seen this scene in a long time." Zhu Wen said from the side, "It's normal. This only happens when exchanging bloodlines or other special items."

"The Clow Cards and the rainbow pacifier are both props, so this scene didn't happen."

Everyone stared intently at the sky.

White, black, and red light spots intertwined and finally entered Zero's right hand.

This scene lasted for a few minutes before it ended.

When the beam of light disappears, the point of zero falls.

His right hand landed before his right.

To be precise, it is the right hand that extends out and transforms into a chair.

The five fingers form four legs on the ground, and the middle finger widens and grows to become a backrest.

Zero himself landed precisely on this chair, seemingly unaware of the situation at first glance.

Upon witnessing this scene, Chen Zilong's mouth dropped open: "Holy crap!"

Cheng Xiao's eyes also lit up:

"This is so cool!"

Zhu Wen had a bad feeling: "I feel... um... midnight, how are you?"

"Feeling? What feeling? Like sitting on the back of your own hand?"

Zero, who hadn't spoken, was pushed up by a force, and then the chair turned back into the right hand.

However, a pair of flesh-colored wings grew from the back of this right hand, flapping to allow the entire hand to float in the air.

Then, the soul's finger bowed gracefully in the air to Zhu Wen and the others, just like a gentleman.

A crack appeared in his palm, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

"Welcome to meet you all, it's a great honor. So, what's my name?"

"Hey, you, host, or master? Never mind, hurry up and give me a name so I can introduce myself."

At midnight, he looked down at his empty right hand.

Then he looked at the right hand flying in the air in front of him.

That confirmed one thing: the rather noisy and superfluous words just now were spoken by this hand.

Seeing this scene, even midnight was stunned.

"We'll talk about the name later. And don't speak again without my permission. Come back."

The parasite scoffed and then truly fell silent. Immediately, a lump of clay-like material extended out and connected to Zero's body before returning to its original form.

It was as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.

Seeing his right hand quiet down, Zero couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Cheng Xiao curiously touched it and said, "Why don't you let him talk? I feel this guy is quite interesting, clearly different from a slug."

"And just that short moment he said more than all of your chapters combined."

Saito and Chen Zilong couldn't wait to touch it too.

I've seen right hands that can transform before, but a right hand that can detach from the body and swing independently is truly a first.

Li Xiao was also itching to make a move, but just as he raised his hand, Ying Kong pulled him back without saying a word.

Slowly, a layer of cold sweat appeared on Li Xiao's forehead.

Because he saw three big men touching another big man's right hand, and not just once, but repeatedly, accompanied by indescribable smiles.

A bald, muscular man, a green-haired baby, a man with a hoarse voice, and the one being touched.

The four people involved didn't react at all.

Li Xiao silently took a camera from beside him and then held it up.

A snap.

"Huh? Li Xiao, what were you doing just now?"

Li Xiao casually handed the camera back to Moss: "No, I just wanted to ask if the feel is any different from usual."

Chen Zilong nodded and said seriously:
"It is indeed different from ordinary skin, and you can feel that this is not a hand, but a living thing."

After saying that, Chen Zilong looked up at Zero Point: "So, how do you use this thing?"

"Is he just a chatterbox?"

At midnight, he looked down at his right hand, which was constantly opening and closing.

In fact, from the outside, there is no difference from before; the fingerprints and palm prints on it have not changed.

However, as the host, he knew clearly that the inner core had become unrecognizable, and even his own body had changed somewhat.

After a moment of contemplation, Zero spoke up: "Only the right hand and forearm can be deformed, not the entire arm."

"As for abilities, they can liquefy, reorganize, and harden at the cellular level. Since there is no fixed skeleton, they can be directly deformed, but in other words, they can all be turned into skeletons."

As the midnight countdown begins, each revelation reveals a new ability.

His right hand trembled.

When it liquefies, it melts and drips onto the ground, flowing into a pool of liquid.

During the reassembly, the liquid on the ground bulged up and turned back into the right hand, which then supported the ground and jumped back.

Then they switched back and forth between knives, guns, clubs, and even screwdrivers and wrenches.

When it comes to hardening, the surfaces of these weapons begin to blacken and then become firm.

After saying that, Zero Point Right Hand fell silent again.

However, the process left Chen Zilong and the others speechless.

"Damn it!"

"This ever-changing star lord?"

Li Xiao suddenly spoke up from the side: "Why do I feel like this ability is a bit similar to Chu Xuan's physical transformation?"

"Isn't your skill called 'Transformation Through Non-Action' also capable of doing the same thing?"

"And it affects the whole body, while Zero only affects the right hand."

Chu Xuan looked up at Li Xiao and then shook his head:
"It's different. The transformation of non-action is a kind of soul technique in Ju-on. Its essence is to change the soul and thus change the physical body as an outward manifestation."

"The parasites of Zero Point are a completely different kind of existence. The most obvious difference is that I cannot achieve liquefaction at the cellular level, nor can I exert power beyond myself."

As he spoke, Chu Xuan raised his right hand, which then began to melt.

However, it could only melt into a viscous liquid in the end, and did not become something with the texture of water.

After Chu Xuan finished speaking, he looked up at Zero:

"The Supreme God said that parasitizing the body will enhance physical abilities to some extent. How effective is it?"

Zero Point activated the first stage of the gene lock while standing still, and then did a few simple activities.

"It works, but it's not very noticeable for me."

Hearing this, Chu Xuan simply nodded, unsurprised. (End of Chapter)
