“These are bloodworms!!” Lola who was in front, heard the commotion and looked back, she was instantly taken aback. Looking down at the blood and spotting the worms, she was so frightened that she immediately took a big step back.

“You!”

She looked up shockingly at Clint and the dry body that he was carrying by his side which looked more like a dead body.

After being parasitized by bloodworms, people could not live for more than five hours. This was common sense in the radiation belt. Thinking of this, Lola looked at the disastrous-looking face of this young man and her heart sank.

“Looks like I’m going to die”, Clint sat down on the floor, too demotivated to continue the journey. He was going to die anyway, continuing the journey or not would end up with the same result.

“I’ll go get you medicine! There is a way for blood filariasis!” Lola gritted her teeth and swiftly ran deep into the cave, but she understood that it would take at least six hours to go to and fro. This amount of time was not enough at all. Furthermore, the medicine for bloodworms was an extremely expensive drug in the Underground Cave Rebel Army.

“I’ll tell uncle. There may be a glimmer of hope!” Lola made up her mind and quickly sped up, running deep into the cave.

Clint sat down at the side of the cave hole and looked up at the surrounding cave walls. There was a faint green light on the wall. It was the only lighting in the cave.

He touched his right rib, where a fist-sized blood-hole wound was. The flesh on the edge had rotted and there were many tiny bloodworms growing there. These black, earthworm-like bugs were constantly worming in and out of the flesh and blood. Yet, Clint did not feel pain because the nerves were already paralyzed.

From the blood hole of this wound, he could even reach in with his hand to touch his internal organs.

The stench that he was emitting was growing stronger.

“This time will really not work...” Clint sat down helplessly. There was deep fear and panic in his eyes, so much so that his voice was trembling.

“Hold on!” Red Moon encouraged. “There is still hope! Believe me!”

“I wonder what my sister is doing...” Clint blankly stared in front of him, but his consciousness had drifted off elsewhere.

He did not even dare to look at his own body because it was so unbearable that it made him contemplate taking his own life.

Lonnie had been in a coma for a long time. Although he had given her radiation drugs, the dose was not strong enough and her situation was still deteriorating. Perhaps it would not take long for her to die like him.

Time went by, minutes and seconds.

*********************

Garen sprinted across the grassland. He had a simple miniature-Mech on him. His body was almost floating on the ground. Every time his feet touched the ground, he had ran approximately seven or eight meters. It was very scary, almost the same as the average Mech’s low-flying speed.

Suddenly, he stopped in his track and dropped onto the edge of a deep pit in the grassland.

This pit was obviously the remnants of a bomb blast. Some fragmentary components of the Blackboard Mech’s body were faintly visible inside. Clearly, there was a confrontation between Blackboard patrols and White Light soldiers.

‘Whirrr...’

A white Mech flew at a low altitude and was rushing towards Garen. Without any inquiries or speech, it gave a slash of the knife, as if to cut Garen into half.

“The hell with you!!” Garen looked up and thrust out a strong Willpower Pierce.

With a loud bang, the white Mech fell to the ground, rolled a few times and there was no more movement.

An ordinary Level Three Mech soldier, even with the Mech’s outer armor, was no opponent to Garen’s single Willpower Pierce. Without reaching Level Five, even with the Mech, one would not be the opponent of Level Five in close range. Once the moves were seen through, a Willpower Pierce within a range of ten meters would end the battle.

Therefore, pilots of Level Five and above were very dangerous. They generally used long-range focused attacks.

The Mech rolled on the ground. Garen approached it and wanted to pull the cabin door open but the door was tough and the switch could not be easily destroyed by him. He could only let it be, so he jumped off the Mech’s body and rushed towards the direction pointed out by Red Moon.

Clint’s death would have a very troublesome effect on him. It would cause him to lose the Willpower.

Fortunately, as he dispelled the nameless Willpower, the Willpower that this imprint could affect would only be Crouched Eagle Talon. It would not have any effect towards the Energy Machinist Willpower that was acquired later on.

Obviously, this imprint was aimed at the previously accumulated Willpower. But for the part that was completely re-cultivate later, there was no way to implicate it.

“That is, if I completely break off the connection with Red Moon and destroy the last layer of the nameless Willpower, then the imprint will be destroyed and the Level Four Crouched Eagle Talon will be affected and completely destroyed as well, leaving only the residual remains of Level One.”

Garen thought about it while dashing. He was not one to be controlled by others.

“For other people, this loss is huge, but for me, it is not a big issue. As long as there is potential, re-cultivating is not a big problem!”

“It’s just that this connection with Forbidden core may be useful in the future. It’s a pity if it’s broken”

He made up his mind that this imprint could serve as the key to connecting with Red Moon. Clint and the group did not look like they would easily die off. Red Moon, this mysterious Forbidden Core, was definitely not a simple character and might be of great use later on.

Unconsciously, the location that was established with Red Moon gradually appeared in his field of vision.

Suddenly, Garen made a leap and easily hid in a grassland radiation ditch by the side. He laid flat on his body and soaked his entire body in the ditch, masking the temperature and the color of the miniature-Mech.

Three White Light soldiers roared past overhead and held a rifle-like weapon in their hands.

Two of them had two horizontal lines engraved on them while the other only had one. Judging by the Mech’s Willpower force field, it was apparent that they were two Level Two soldiers and one Level One soldier.

After waiting for the three Mech soldiers to fly away, Garen jumped up and rushed forward with a spray of water.

Very quickly, he evaded the White Light patrolling soldiers a few more times and finally came to the location where Red Moon had pointed out.

Opening a camouflage mud-board on the ground, the deep black tunnel below was exposed. Garen jumped into it and closed the lid with a backhand.

The moment he hid inside, Garen felt the horrifying vibration of Willpower exploding on the ground outside.

The ground shook violently, like an earthquake.

“This is...!!??” Garen hid in the ground and did not immediately go down. He stopped in his track and carefully felt the movement on the outside.

Suddenly, there was a frantic laughter outside and it seemed like it belonged to a man.

“Hahahaha!! Run! Still want to run?? After killing the people under my command, you actually dare to run!”

Boom!!

Another violent wave of vibration came and the earth seemed to tremble.

Garen tensed up and felt that someone was fighting outside.

“Karfi! Don’t go too far!! This is our White Light area!” Another man shouted angrily.

“What about it! If I want to chase, I chase. If I want to kill, I kill!!” Karfi said coldly. “Double-end Robbing! Die!!”

“You... actually broke through Inheriting level...!!”

Before the voice fell off, a fierce wave of force field once again shook the entire ground.

Even Garen, who was hiding in the ground, felt a numbness in his body.

“This... is Inheriting level!”

Garen looked up as if to see through the mud and watch the battle on the outside.

He now noticed this wave of force field. Similar to the Red Whale’s battle he had watched, this was also of Inheriting level!

“Karfi... the existence of Three Marshalls and One Star, similar as Medero, is terrifying. Some time ago, there was news that Medero had broken through to Level Five Twin Moon Level. After suppressing himself for so long, he finally reached the peak of Twin Moon in one-shot. Unexpectedly, the same Three Marshalls Karfi also broke through Inheriting level. Truly the top talent of this era!”

Garen mused. The progressing speed of these geniuses were horrific. Some accumulated non-stop while some were not known. If it were not for coincidentally coming across Karfi battling White Light’s high-level pilot here, he probably would not even know that Karfi had already broken through Inheriting level.

“Master Nottingham would not let you off! Retreat!!” There seemed to be someone else. After that, the friction of the beam cannons with the air produced strange tearing sounds.

In Karfi’s mad laughter, it seemed that he had killed some of White Light’s people. Then, it was completely quiet on the outside. Finally, it was the sound of the Mech flying away.

Garen slowly walked and headed towards the deeper parts of the cave silently. He did not expect that the so-called task of Three Marshalls would be coming directly to this outer region field to hone themselves. The progressing speed of these geniuses was extremely scary. Perhaps in less than a few years’ time, there would be a qualitative change.

Among Medero the trio, he wondered who else had broken through Inheriting level, whether it was a recent breakthrough, or had already made a breakthrough long ago but stayed hidden.

After all, the trio had become Three Marshalls for many years.

Taking a deep breath and throwing off these thoughts, Garen sped up.

“After dealing with all these issues, then it’s putting all the effort into creating my Exclusive Mech! I must step into the resonance level as soon as possible!”

There were still some potential points that were sufficient for the time being. The main thing was to improve his strength first, so that he could be better emboldened to compete for resources and at the same time, have better capability to collect the new Staff of Absolute Yin!

Accelerating his pace, Garen took the medical package and quickly ran towards Red Moon’s location point. His speed was getting increasingly faster!

Soon, a glowing light red dot appeared in front of Garen’s view.

Clint’s disastrous face was facing him and he was already unconscious.

“Hurry! Clint is going to die! It’s blood filariasis!” Red Moon’s voice sounded panicky, but it was also very weak. “My accumulated energy was used to forcibly jump once. I can’t hold on any longer. Everything up next will depend on you!”

“Got it!” ,Garen nodded. That little red light finally was unable to hold out and completely extinguished.

Garen lifted Clint’s eyelid and examined his eyes. He quickly took off his jacket and saw the terrible wound and the black tiny worms that were worming in and out of the blood vessels near the wound.

“Humph!”

Garen placed his hand on Clint’s chest. The Secret Technique was a practitioner’s high-level technique and Quake, was initiated. Due to his power in reaching the peak of Martial Arts realm, Garen was able to precisely control the vibrations to kill all the bloodworms inside of Clint’s body.

These worms were much more fragile than flesh and bones and so, they were all killed instantly.

Garen reached out and gave a hard smack. Clint instantly vomited a large mouthful of blood and the floor was covered with the corpse of worms and it was all black.

Pulling off a halved-worm from Clint’s mouth, Garen quickly examined his physical condition. His fingertips gently stroked the wound under the ribs and a large piece of rotting flesh was cut off.

In Totem World, Garen was a leading biochemical expert who could perform a heart fusion transplant on himself, not to mention this kind of common emergency surgery.

After stopping the blood using a vein-cutting manner, he then opened the medical bag and took out the drugs. Quickly feeding Clint the drugs to kill the worms in the body, he disinfected, sutured and dressed the wound. Garen then looked at Lonnie who was by the side.

Baylon was already emaciated. The entire person looked like a patient suffering from muscular dystrophy for a long time, delicate and fragile. Her skin was somewhat transparent and she was unconscious as well.

First, she was consecutively given three doses of anti-radiation drugs. Then, Garen quickly took off her clothes and began a full body examination for the spots that had the most serious accumulation of the radiation germs.

The parts underneath the skin that had the most radiation germs could be clearly identified through the color of the skin.

There were too many radiation germs on Lonnie’s body. Even the bloodworms in Clint’s body did not dare to worm in.

Large chunks of purple-black skin resembled one huge black mole after another. Lonnie’s entire body was shrivelled, like being soaked in water for a long time. The skin was completely inflexible and apart from the black moles, it was terrifying white and pale, completely unrecognizable as a human.

Using fingernail instead of a scalpel, the severely infected skin of Baylon was cut off and covered with artificial skin. After suturing, Garen quickly looked for a blood bag and began a blood transfusion for Baylon.

Two bags of blood flowed into the body rapidly under his fingering method.

Baylon’s heart was instantly filled with new vitality and gradually began to recover. The anti-radiation drugs also started to show its effect. Most of the radiation germs began to vanish as they were killed.

Like a miracle, Baylon’s body seemed to be like a blown-up doll. The thin body shell slowly recovered in a speed visible to the naked eye and returned to its normal appearance. The over-whiteness of the skin was completely gone and the soft-breasted chest on the body also began to slowly rise.

When Garen saw this scene, he was stunned and slightly displeased. Some of the emotions originating from Nonosiva affected him and caused frustration. A good brother actually underwent sex reassignment surgery and became a sister!

But looking at that pair of plump breasts, Garen did not see any traces of surgery. This made him somewhat puzzled and stretched out his hands to squeeze it. The feel was very natural!

“What?”

After all, parts of Nonosiva’s memories in Garen were still somewhat worried about his younger brother and sister. Although he had always looked down upon them, they were still this body’s only family in this world.

He could not help but reach out and carefully rub again, looking for signs of surgery left, right, up and down. And yet, there was no sign of the slightest.

Garen’s eyes narrowed and felt that something was off.

Suddenly, he reached out, grabbed Lonnie’s trousers and pulled it down.

Baylon’s pants were taken off together with her panties.

The entire lower body was completely exposed in front of Garen.

“This!!” He scrutinized. It was totally a girl’s construction.

“It’s not sex reassignment surgery! Even if this world’s biomedical technology is powerful, there would still be traces of it! This was not something that can be caused by surgery!”

Garen quickly put Lonnie’s pants back on and stood up.

“Was it the influence of the training method?” He suddenly thought of a possibility, silently watching the two lying on the ground.
