Could it be that Kal'tsit, who had just joined the Zerg, discovered a danger that he hadn't even noticed?

"There are dangerous viruses in the air. If you take it off, you will be infected."

The woman looked at the small child.

Children will indeed feel uncomfortable if they wear a gas mask.

But there is no way.

She touched the little child's head.

"A dangerous virus?"

Zeg blinked.

Then he held out his hand.

"Kal'tsit is talking about these viruses!"

A mass of polymer squirmed in the palm of the Overlord's hand.

This is the Zerg virus that he gathered using his psychic energy.

They are all released by toxin eaters as part of the hive's defense.

Intruders will be infected by the Zerg virus and then quickly assimilated into the Zerg.

"..."

Kal'tsit looked at the mass of polymer.

How huge a number of viruses would it take to aggregate to a size visible to the naked eye?

She was silent.

As a learned person, her worldview was about to be shattered.

What kind of Originium skill is this?

Can we manipulate viruses that are invisible to the naked eye?

"This mask doesn't seem to be useful. Kal'tsit has been infected!"

Zeg said so.

This gas mask is completely incapable of preventing infection from the Zerg virus that is spreading in the air.

Moreover, the new members joining the swarm are too weak in physical fitness.

The Zerg virus released by the Toxinophage will slowly transform her body, making her physiological form closer to the Zerg -

Stronger physical fitness, more efficient energy absorption rate, lower metabolic rate, and extreme tolerance to harsh environments...

Of course, if Kal'tsit wants to use biomass to accelerate evolution, Zeg is also willing to provide biomass.

"!"

…………

Volume 4: Chapter It's decided to be you, Skadi! (K)

"!"

Kelsey opened her eyes wide.

Her hands trembled slightly and she almost lost her grip on the air sampling device.

If she had been infected, why didn't her body react and start to distort as those Sarkaz said?

"Zerg, this is not a joke."

Kal'tsit put down the air sampling device in her hand.

"Zerg isn't kidding!"

The swarm virus entered the woman's body with every breath she took, gently and slowly transforming her body.

Although it only takes a slight change in the master's mind to greatly increase the speed of this transformation -

However, the flesh of ordinary creatures cannot withstand such rapid deformation, and it is easy for them to lose their self-awareness due to brain damage and become the walking corpses they once were.

Unfortunately, Kal'tsit, the new member of the Zerg swarm, is one of those Zerg with very weak bodies.

"Kal'tsit is too weak!"

He reached out and took the woman's hand.

Its physical strength is not even as good as that of springtails, and even worker bees cannot compare to it.

"..."

Kal'tsit looked down at the tiny child.

Then she pulled out the little device that drew blood.

No, blood cannot be drawn here.

The woman thought quickly.

The virus is already in the air here.

If any wound was exposed, she would be infected by the virus in the air.

Kelsey, tell the truth -

I don't really want to believe that Zeg's words are true.

Everything needs to be based on data.

"What does Kal'tsit want to do?"

Zeg blinked and looked curiously at the strange instrument that was taken out.

The sharp needles appear to be designed to pierce the skin.

"I'm going to draw some blood for testing."

After previous exploration, Kal'tsit determined that the direction of air flow here was from the outside to the inside of the laboratory.

After all, the laboratory is underground and the terrain is lower than outside, so the air naturally flows downward under the action of gravity.

"Draw blood? Zeg can help Kal'tsit!"

The little child said so.

"..."

How are you going to help me?

The woman was stunned.

Then--

She felt a slight pain in her fingertips.

At the same time there was a wet feeling, as if something was licking her fingertips.

Zeg held Kal'tsit's finger in his mouth, pierced the skin on the fingertip with his sharp little fangs, and sucked the blood from it.

He then used the secreted fluid to cover the wound on his fingertip.

"..."

The woman was stunned.

In the long time——

No one has ever been treated like this.

Zeg was the first person to do this to her.

The little child raised his head and opened his mouth, revealing the pink and slightly wrinkled interior of his mouth.

A little scarlet liquid accumulated on the soft tongue.

Kal'tsit always felt that this scene was inexplicably strange, just like a woman showing off her trophy after biting something.

No, no, no, how can you think like that, Kal'tsit?

The woman shook her head.

I always feel that after meeting Zeg, my thoughts have become strange.

She looked down at her fingertips.

There were no wounds.

It was as if the previous pain was an illusion.

Yet that is exactly what happened.

The little child still raised his head, showing the blood that had been sucked out.

"Zerg, this blood sample has probably been contaminated by the air."

Kal'tsit touched the little master's head.

The air has come into contact with the blood sample.

"..."

Zeg blinked.

"Gudu."

Then he swallowed the blood in his mouth.

"Polluted by the air?"

the Lord asked.

"Yes, because the inside of your mouth came into contact with the air, causing the blood sample to be contaminated."

Kelsey explained.

She looked at the little kid who had taken off his gas mask.

"Send in the test equipment that we brought with us—use the robots that Krusil made to send them in."

"Don't go near the entrance."

"Then prepare to set up the disinfection equipment. When I come up later, I will need to disinfect it."

Pick up the communication device, the woman ordered.

Let's do the blood test here.

She was ready to sacrifice her life.

But when I was resurrected again——

I don’t know how much time will pass.

"Ouch!"

The fingertips were sucked again, and a familiar feeling came.

Kal'tsit remained silent.

Zeg's behavior... was totally beyond her expectations.

It's like he has never received any education.

Didn’t the previous civilization instill any common sense in Zeg?

For example, don’t get close to the opposite sex casually, or you will be eaten.

She gazed at the delicate and lovely face.

"..."

A small blood ball wrapped by an unknown force was held in the mouth of the Overlord.

"Zerg used his psychic energy to isolate it from the air!"

The little child puffed out his chest and spoke incoherently.

Although I don’t know why Kal’tsit wanted to draw her own blood, we are all members of the Zerg and we should help each other.
