"Vampires pose too great a danger to modern society; we absolutely cannot let them leave alive!"

"Including me! Please, in the end... do not show me any mercy! Kill me too!"

Even the cold-blooded Ayanokouji couldn't help but take notice of this gentleman who, despite being an alien, still upheld the basic principles of humanity.

But he also believes that now is not the time for the old man to die a noble death.

Since Speedwagon is familiar with Stryker and knows about the Stone Mask, he might play an unexpected role in the upcoming battle.

"There's no need to go to your death."

Ayanokouji withdrew his gaze and said calmly:

"Let's first check if there are any surviving humans in the ruins. Otherwise, they might be discovered by Strei or the Pillar Men, adding to the burden on Suvy and the others."

"And by the way, collect the stone demon masks along the way."

Seeing that Ayanokouji was about to leave, Horikita Suzune suddenly remembered something.

She turned to look at the short-haired girl who had been trying to keep a low profile at the edge of the group:

"Kushida, aren't you supposed to be an 'enhanced staff member' for this test?"

"I remember that after the exam results were released on the deserted island, Ayanokouji was among the top three, right?"

Kikyo Kushida, whose name was called, slapped her forehead and suddenly realized:

"Ah! Right! I'm so sorry, Ayanokouji-san, things were so chaotic just now, I almost forgot!"

Ayanokouji stopped and turned back to look at her quietly.

Kikyo Kushida quickly opened her own user interface.

There were no complicated buttons, only three virtual CDs labeled with their names, and a short instruction manual.

Kushida materialized the CD bearing Ayanokouji's name and explained the terms and conditions according to the instruction manual:

"The rules state that qualified individuals should hold the disc and visualize the enhancement direction they need. The Craftsmanship will then generate an item for you... with a value less than or equal to half of the S-points you earned in the deserted island exam."

She blinked: "And then...and that's it?"

Ayanokouji ignored Kikyo Kushida's feigned ignorance and reached out to take the disc.

Is the value less than or equal to half of the score you obtained...?

He closed his eyes.

Immediately afterwards, the disc emitted a burst of golden light.

When the light faded, the disc disappeared.

Instead, a vial of serum was used.

Ayanokouji took out her encyclopedia and scanned it.

Super Soldier Serum

[Details: Slows down aging, pushing the human body to its theoretically perfect limit in every aspect. Immune to most diseases and toxins.]

Hirata Yosuke leaned closer to read the introduction and was surprised:

"Ayanokouji-kun, is it really just that you want the ultimate physique? Didn't you just have an injection of the T-virus? Won't this enhancement have overlapping functions?"

Ayakojiru expressionlessly rolled up her sleeve and injected the super soldier serum into her vein.

"The external props are too superficial."

"I only scored 68 points on my last exam, which divided by two gives me only 34 points of purchasing power. It's almost impossible to exchange that for powerful items."

He flexed his wrists:

"Moreover, the T-virus grants cells mutation and evolution, while the super soldier serum elevates the physical limits of humanity itself. With these two combined, Zero, as a symbiotic entity, can also rise with me."

"This is currently the most cost-effective option."

Parasyte Zero clearly understood the meaning of these words:

"Ayanokouji...I will become your most useful weapon!"

"Hmm." Ayanokouji nodded lightly. "Then it's up to you how you perform. Let's go."

Seeing Ayanokouji preparing to move, Nanase Tsubasa, standing at the back of the group, felt uneasy:

"Um...when should we proactively start the exam?"

Ayanokouji ignored her and walked straight ahead.

Horikita Suzune, however, provided her with an answer:

"At the very least, we need to buy items that can kill vampires for everyone who has the enhanced suits."

"Otherwise, even if Suwei and his team start the main competition... it will still take time before they find us."

Horikita's eyes swept over the newcomers:

"If anything unexpected happens during this vacuum period, it will cost you your lives as the price of trial and error. We don't care, even if we can't protect you, we can still escape on our own."

This callous remark prompted Nanase Tsubasa to obediently nod.
