"You send us into another world, and after completing the mission, we can return to our original world and exchange it for special products, equipment, martial arts skills, and other things from this world."
Kuroki Gensai sat on the stone guardrail at the edge of the flower bed, his hands supporting his sturdy thighs as he glanced at the panel again. Then he looked at Hikigaya, who stood respectfully beside him. "And you, you are the one who exchanged for my style, the Kaigan-ryu, and you fought against my projection in that special place where you learned my martial arts. Is that why you know me?"
"Yes, Master."
Hikigaya nodded sincerely, "During my last reincarnation mission, I met a senior reincarnation practitioner who explained the rules to me."
——Hikigaya still had some reservations. It would be fine if he used his sincerity in exchange for Uncle Kuroki’s care, but there was no need for him to sell out the identities and interests of Xia and the others.
"Hmm~"
Kuroki Gensai pondered. Although it sounded incredible, when he thought about how he had inexplicably come to this strange place that was who knows how far away it was in a trance, it seemed that what the young man said was not completely impossible.
but……
"Young man, don't call me Master. I have no intention of accepting any apprentices."
Kuroki Gensai, his towering figure as steady as a mountain, suddenly stood up and led the way in one direction, muttering to himself and perhaps giving instructions, "Anyway, let's first try to find a so-called parasitic beast. My clothes are too conspicuous, so I need to change. I'll also need to find some social media to get some ID cards, just to get by."
"Okay, Master. Got it, Master. You can call me Hikigaya."
Hikigaya followed closely, then seemed to remember something and quickly said, "Oh, by the way, Master, my senior also said that after we wake up, we can look around the area near the starting point. Maybe we can find some supplies for the Lord God or special clues!"
"I told you not to call me Master..."
Kuroki Gensai responded with a little helplessness, but still nodded to show that he agreed with his proposal.
The two of them then wandered around the buildings. It was not until then that Hikigaya saw several patients in hospital gowns and realized that this place was actually a small hospital.
At the same time, he also understood why Uncle Kuroki specifically emphasized that "my clothes are too conspicuous and I need to get a fake certificate."
In a hospital, barefoot and wearing the black training suit, nine out of ten people were staring at them, and the other one couldn't see because of an eye injury.
This isn't going to be a good thing. We're like undocumented residents in this world. If we're treated as suspicious and the police come to question us, we'll be in a lot of trouble, especially...
Hikigaya pulled the travel bag on his shoulder and thought to himself, and then he wanted to persuade Uncle Kuroki that since he couldn't find any clues to the mission, he should do as he said and change clothes first to reduce the risk of being questioned.
He suddenly discovered that Uncle Kuroki had stopped at some point. There was no change in his expression or eyes, he was still as calm as ever, but his gaze was always fixed in one direction.
Hikigaya followed his gaze and saw that the direction he was staring at was the entrance to the small hospital.
This seemed to be a small hospital in a local town, so naturally there was no security guard or anything like that. All that could be seen was a young man with abnormally thin cheeks sitting on the steps planted with green plants at the door.
Although the young man's haggard face made him look much older than his actual age, he should be a high school or college student of the same age as me, or a little older than me.
"What's wrong with this guy?"
After carefully examining the young man, Hikigaya didn't find anything wrong, so he wanted to ask the uncle Kuroki next to him.
But before he could utter a word, the young man at the hospital entrance suddenly raised his right hand and put it close to his face, as if trying to support the side of his face. However, his lips were also moving slightly, and a sound that only he could hear uttered: "Xiao You, is this the guy?!"
"But the sex of the body is somewhat different, or is it someone else of your kind?"
"..."
"Xiaoyou?"
The young man noticed that Kuroki Gensai was staring at him, but he kept talking to his right hand like a lunatic. He never heard the answer from his "companion". Just when he called out "companion" again in confusion and surprise.
"Boom!"
Kuroki Gensai took a heavy step forward barefoot, at this moment!
"Run away! Shinichi!"
As the young man's right hand suddenly made a rapid sound, his entire right arm stretched out, and then blood-red muscle texture and strange eyeballs appeared on it in an instant, and two metal blades hardened at the tip of the arm, which could no longer be called an arm.
The parasitic beast called "Xiao You" used this to create a tearing gust of wind, and with two swift slashes of the sword, it slashed at the heavy figure that posed a huge threat to him.
In this sudden change, Hikigaya, who was standing nearby, didn't even have time to blink and could only see two afterimages flash by.
The young man opposite, whose right arm had transformed into a monster, barely saw the uncle who was suddenly attacked by Xiao You. He showed agility and speed that did not match his body size, and quickly moved forward. In a flash, he dodged the two blades that Xiao You attacked from the front and back, and in the next moment:
The magic gun is out!
"Whoosh!"
Kuroki Gensai's arm was like a spear, and the tip of his finger was hovering 1 centimeter away from the young man's wide-open eyes.
Whether it was Xiao You or the young man, their entire bodies were frozen at this moment, and they dared not move at all.
"Young man, are you a human or a monster?" Only Kuroki Gensai's steady voice was still ringing.
"Human! I am human!"
The young man felt as if he was covered in cold sweat, but he didn't care about it anymore. He hurriedly shouted, "Uncle, please listen to my explanation first!"
Otherwise, he would be stabbed to death by this uncle in the next second...
In fact, he was not the only one who had this feeling. Even Hikigaya, who was watching from the sidelines, felt a sense of phantom pain when he saw this scene.
Chapter 93 Xiao You: If you want me to sell out my kind... you have to pay me extra
"It parasitizes the human brain, devours their memories, knowledge, and brains, then disguises itself as a human, lurking among them and preying on them—no wonder it's called a parasite."
Hikigaya was taking notes seriously, and at this time the three of them had moved to another place and came to a seaside embankment to communicate.
Izumi Shinichi, the "male protagonist" of this world whose right arm is parasitized by Xiao You - of course, he has nothing to do with Kudo Shinichi, whom Xia Yan knows, who has probably become smaller in the main world. They just have the same name.
At this time, he was sitting on a staircase on the embankment, explaining the basic situation of the parasitic species to Kuroki Gensai and Hikigaya, who were standing on his left and right.
Izumi Shinichi immediately raised his right arm and gestured, "And this fellow I call Xiao You, because he failed to parasitize my head and only parasitized my right arm, so he had to coexist with me."
After thinking about it, he said something nice to Xiao You: "Although I have encountered many dangerous things because of this guy, generally speaking, he has never taken the initiative to hurt me."
"Yes, please rest assured."
At this point, an eye and a mouth opened in the palm of Izumi Shinichi's right arm, and from them came Xiaoyou's calm voice, full of desire for survival: "I also need the nutrients in Shinichi's blood to survive. Therefore, the relationship between us is completely a very stable symbiotic and mutually supportive one!"
Not long after he finished speaking, Xiao You finally felt that the premonition of danger that had always lingered around him began to dissipate.
"Whoo~"
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately a tentacle with an eyeball at the end extended from Izumi Shinichi's right arm.
As his tentacles and eyeballs moved, Xiao You looked at the tall figure of Kuroki Gensai with a bit of curiosity. "But I didn't expect that there would be a monstrous existence like you among humans?"
Upon hearing this, Kuroki Gensai looked noncommittal.
"By the way, Senior Kuroki, can I ask how you discovered Xiaoyou and I's true identities?"
However, Izumi Shinichi's subsequent question made him react a little as he leaned quietly against the embankment with his arms folded like iron.
Kuroki Gensai turned his head and lowered his gaze, meeting the young man's eyes as if looking down at him, which brought an inexplicable pressure to Izumi Shinichi.
"Eyes and intuition."
Kuroki Gensai uttered two words, and without waiting for Izumi Shinichi to ask, he continued his explanation: "The eyes are the windows to the soul, so looking directly into someone's eyes can allow you to see through certain emotions, and I..."
"From your eyes, I see something inhuman and alien."
Kuroki Gensai spoke each word with a heavy tone, like a needle piercing Izumi Shinichi's heart: "Young man, you live with an alien, are you really sure that you are not affected by it?"
"I saw some humanity in you that hadn't completely vanished, so I showed some mercy—be careful."
Izumi Shinichi felt a sudden pain in his heart, causing him to subconsciously clutch his clothes tightly around his chest.
"I do have some idea about this."
At the position of Shinichi's right palm, Xiao You transformed into a skin-textured, triangular-shaped original form with two short, short hands stretched out. It also had big eyes and a mouth like KISS ME, revealing an inexplicable cuteness.
Hikigaya, who was diving nearby, looked at the two people who were completely indifferent at the scene and had to suppress the urge to complain with great difficulty.
At this moment, Xiao You turned around and asked Izumi Shinichi, "Can you tell me, Shinichi?"
"……Um."
After getting Shinichi's approval, Xiaoyou turned around and explained to Kuroki Gensai, "This guy's mother was usurped by one of my kind. It came to Shinichi's house and wanted to kill Shinichi's father who had witnessed her true form. But she ended up piercing Shinichi's heart instead, who was the only one at home at the time."
"To save him and protect myself, I transplanted approximately 30% of my own cells into the missing part of his heart. I think those cells have now flowed through his bloodstream and into his entire body."
"That's probably why."
Xiao You's eyes suddenly turned back and stared at Izumi Shinichi, "So, Shinichi, you are now part of our parasitic beast's body. Naturally, your way of thinking has become more similar to ours, more rational and... more cold-blooded!"
Izumi Shinichi: "..."
"Let's leave this topic for now."
Izumi Shinichi's mood is now extremely complicated, but unfortunately, Kuroki Gensai and the others' mission this time is not to act as an old grandfather to enlighten the male protagonist.
After giving the young man a well-intentioned warning, Kuroki Gensai turned his gaze and gave Xiao You a straight look for the first time. "You said before that you parasitic beasts have a kind of brainwave connection, and you can sense each other's presence, right?"
"Take me to find your kind." It was obvious that Kuroki was not using a question here, but a statement tone.
"Hmm~, let me think about what I should say at this point? First of all, are you an official human?"
Xiao You scratched his head with his short hand, feeling a bit troubled. However, after seeing Kuroki Gensai's clenched fists and his silent, imposing demeanor, he dismissed his doubts. "It doesn't look like it. Well, let's not worry about your purpose for now."
"So you want me to lead the way and help you humans slaughter your own kind. Do you think that's possible?!"
Xiao You's tone gradually became firm and resolute:
“That’ll cost extra!”
……
……
In fact, because of the different ways of survival between seizure and symbiosis.
For Xiaoyou, orthodox parasitic beasts are not friendly units. It is better to say that there are more beasts that are hostile to him.
So he sold his kind for a good price without hesitation.
Soon, this three-person jungle team that was formed first found its first target, which was Shinichi's enemy who killed Shinichi's mother and parasitized her.
His mother was wearing a light-colored coat and was an ordinary woman with short hair that reached her shoulders. Her appearance had not changed at all, but her facial features no longer had the kindness she once had.
This immediately made Izumi Shinichi look at his mortal enemy with a ferocious hatred on his face.
"Two human parasites with brains still left? That's not good for me."
The two people that the parasite was referring to, besides Shinichi Izumi, there was also Mr. Mamoru Ueda who came later and was of the same kind as Shinichi - a kind fat man with the parasite on his chin.
But unfortunately, this parasitic beast obviously hasn't realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Boom~"
The bearded man walked over slowly with the invincible BGM playing.
Chapter 94: Three-man Wild Group
Know yourself and know your enemy. Since you are fighting against an unknown enemy, you must first understand the enemy.
Since his arrival, Kuroki Gensai has been acting in accordance with this philosophy. If you want to understand the enemy, the easiest way is to see it with your own eyes or experience it personally.
Although Izumi Shinichi and Xiaoyou are also considered parasitic beasts, they are ultimately special cases. Kuroki Gensai intends to see for himself the strength and combat methods of orthodox parasitic beasts. In the end, he came to the following conclusion:
"That's really outrageous."
At this time, the parasitic beast that killed Izumi Shinichi's mother had lost its mimicry of his mother's appearance. The part above the neck had turned into four tentacles with bright red muscle texture, and there were creepy eyeballs on them.
At the tips of these tentacles, it also hardened its own parasitic cells, transforming them into four blades that gleamed with cold light. It was undoubtedly fully engaged in a full-scale attack, but...
The original work repeatedly emphasized how fast the Parasyte's attack speed was - it was at such an extreme speed that with the dynamic vision of ordinary people, one could only see its tentacle blades waving out a series of afterimages.
Most people would be cut in half neatly by the parasitic beast's tentacle blades that extended to more than ten meters before they could even react.
