Chapter 216 Accidental Symbiosis
The spiritual energy slowly healed her body. Nie Hong identified the direction on the tourist map and prepared to go back to find Lin Jinghong.

Suddenly, the bag of parasites in his hand moved.

"Damn! Turns out you're not dead!" Nie Hong was suddenly panicked.

He knew that the parasites were not dead. After all, their gas reaction meant that they were still flowing and alive. But in the chaotic scene before, the parasites were motionless, so Nie Hong just thought that they had been dealt with by those people in some way.

As a result, it moved without any warning, which made Nie Hong feel very difficult.

squeak-

The parasite moved violently, ripped the bag open with a "swish" sound, flapped its wings and flew out, rampaging in the narrow alley.

boom!
Then it hit the wall hard and fell stiffly to the ground. Nie Hong watched the parasite bounce twice as it fell to the ground, and couldn't help thinking that this thing was quite elastic...

No, why was he distracted?

It seems that the Antiseptic method also has disadvantages!

This parasite is a little fatter and rounder than the other parasites I've seen before.

Originally, the dragon corpse parasite's body was full of edges and corners, like a flying shuttle, which made it look very dangerous, but the size of this one destroyed the smooth lines.

It's not that it's unwatchable, but it's a bit funny.

However, Nie Hong did not underestimate the parasite. He approached it cautiously, ready to kill it if anything went wrong.

The parasite lying dead soon woke up again, changing its body from belly-up position to limbs on the ground, and its scarlet compound eyes looked at Nie Hong.

Nie Hong's approaching steps immediately stopped.

In an instant, the parasite in front of him took off. Although it was fat, its explosive power was far beyond that of other parasites!
Nie Hong dodged several times in succession, but the opponent kept chasing him, even relying on the elasticity of his body to bounce back and forth between the walls of the alley.

The characteristic that seemed funny just now suddenly became terrifying.

Swish!
Nie Hong was unable to dodge the attack again and could only raise his hand to block in front of him. It happened to be his arm that had been pierced by the mysterious gang before and had not yet recovered, with a bleeding wound on it.

squeak--

A sharp pain came from the hand. The parasite's jaws bit into the wound that had just healed a little, and quickly sucked Nie Hong's blood.

"Let go!" Nie Hong swung his arm vigorously and smashed the parasite against the wall, but the other party was completely indifferent and was keen on sucking blood.

Nie Hong felt that his energy was weakening. Not only the energy, but also his sensing ability was being rapidly consumed!
It's over!
I just completed the synaesthesia and refreshed the life lock not long ago, are I going to give one away here?
He could only try his best to maintain his life energy, and thanks to this miracle he did not die on the spot from excessive blood loss.

After a moment's stalemate, Nie Hong's face turned pale, his lips lost color, his eye sockets sunken, and he was half dead.

Suddenly, the parasite's feeding stopped abruptly.

It didn't just stop. After stopping, a turbid air flowed back into Nie Hong's body from the parasite's mouth.

It allowed his depleted body to be quickly replenished.

Although he didn't understand what was going on, Nie Hong didn't want to give up his life easily. It was very difficult for him to keep his brain thinking due to lack of blood, so he instinctively took this energy into his body.

The external energy enters the body, joins the circulation in Nie Hong's body, and merges with Nie Hong's energy.

Nie Hong's condition improved in the blink of an eye, and her pale face became rosy again.

Then he looked at the parasite on his hand stupidly. The parasite finally let go at this time, rubbed its jaw, and then looked at Nie Hong with its big eyes.

squeak-

Nie Hong threw the parasite against the wall again: "Fuck!"

Squeak!

The parasite bounced back and knocked Nie Hong to the ground, then fluttered its wings and hovered in the air.

Nie Hong covered his nose, which he felt was almost broken, and stood up from the ground. He looked at it vigilantly for a while and found that the insect seemed to have no intention of continuing to attack.

Just following me silently, I don’t know what it means.

He took a few cautious steps into the alley, and the parasite still followed him closely.

After confirming that he really couldn't get rid of it, Nie Hong could only open the bag and said, "If you want to follow me, go in first."

The parasite stayed in mid-air, seemingly not understanding.

So Nie Hong just put it in manually.

Nie Hong was prepared for the insect to struggle, but found that after being trapped, it remained calm and didn't even move much. After carrying the sack, Nie Hong walked away quickly.

At the same time, he checked his qi with some uneasiness.

What on earth had happened just now? His Qi was fine, and even became much stronger.

But there seemed to be a strange feeling in these air.

Symbol?

Nie Hong quickly realized the problem. There seemed to be a strange symbol in his aura.

Although he himself had no knowledge of this symbol, it still appeared in his body and mixed with his blood. Nie Hong had heard this kind of story many times on Blue Star. The ending was usually that the protagonist lost control and mutated, which served as a warning from the teacher.

In the dream world, a free lunch is often just a bigger dinner waiting for you.

He was not happy at all. Another problem that could not be ignored was that there was an extra link in his Qi circulation.

An additional circulation established outside the body was now closely connected to him.

Could it be that he was parasitized by this parasite? But considering that he also gained some benefits from it, this form is more like symbiosis...

It is clearly a parasite of the dragon, but now it is bound to himself. Nie Hong is confused by the situation.

I should go back quickly and ask Lin Jinghong for help.

……

Nie Hong sneaked back to their hotel away from anyone's sight.

Lin Jinghong and Shang Liyu were talking about something, and they were stunned when they saw Nie Hong coming back with a large sack.

"What is this? Is it one of those life-size pillows that otakus like?" Lin Jinghong said jokingly.

"A pillow? You can hug it while sleeping if you like." Nie Hong simply opened the sack, revealing Chubby.

This was the name Nie Hong gave to the parasite on the way back.

Despite all the disgust and resistance, the name has already been chosen.

When the fat parasite came out, Lin Jinghong and Shang Liyu were so scared that they almost took action.

But he soon noticed that this parasite was different from the previous aggressive bugs.

Nie Hong quickly recounted what happened to her when she was away.

"You were bitten by it and established some special relationship with it?" After hearing the last part, Lin Jinghong frowned and said.

"Yeah." Nie Hong pointed to his arm. The wound had healed without even a scar left.

"Why don't you commit suicide?" Shang Liyu said seriously.

Nie Hong: ...

Although I know what you mean, senior sister, it still feels weird to hear you say this in such a serious manner.

"Even though I've been hammered to death by Anti, it still takes a lot of courage for me to commit suicide on the spot. I don't feel any obvious discomfort at the moment, so I came back to ask you guys first, didn't I?" Nie Hong moved a chair and sat down.

"Even if you ask us, we don't know anything about parasites. But, you said that those people you met used special miracles of Qi?"

"Yes, Fatty... uh, the parasite was snatched from them. I wonder if they have finished fighting them now." Nie Hong pointed at the parasite that was curled up next to his leg like a large dog.

"Polives said that one of the main reasons for the parasite riot was because of Lokidu's dragon corpse transformation plan. But from this point of view, the reason behind it may not be that simple..." Lin Jinghong said thoughtfully.

"Are the casualties serious?" Shang Liyu asked with concern.

"A bloody explosion of that scale, carried out without restraint in a busy city, is bound to cause casualties." Upon hearing this, Nie Hong recalled the series of explosions before his eyes, and the scene in which he almost became one of them. His voice became low.

The three of them were silent for a while, and Lin Jinghong stood up: "Then let's go. If it's what you described, then Rocky can't hide it even if he wants to. It will definitely involve our Blue Star. Now is a good opportunity to get information."

Nie Hong also stood up and wanted to follow, but was stopped by Lin Jinghong: "You just showed your face outside, so don't follow me for now. Besides, it's hard to deal with such a big bug, so you should pay more attention to your health, otherwise you won't get into trouble again before An Ti comes back."

Nie Hong could only nod to show that he understood.

squeak-

Fatty stretched his wings and turned over lazily with his belly facing the sky.
