Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 618
Chapter 618: Bubble Messenger
Even though the Vortex’s size had already become only one-tenth of its original size, its cellular activity had been largely reduced, and its speed when squirming and stretching was also much slower, but Meng Chao and the other two had also run out of fuel.
There was no need to even mention A’Ji and Lu Siya. Their bones and tendons were broken, and they were covered in injuries. Even if they struggled for a long time, they could not climb up.
The spirit meridians in Meng Chao’s body were also in a cooldown state because they had been overworking themselves to use Divine Nine Dragon Seals. They could not create any spirit energy magnetic fields for the time being.
Each muscle fiber hurt as if it was poked by ten thousand burning steel needles.
His dragon meridian-bound spine also felt like it was twisted by a merciless, metal hand. Each vertebrae twisted one hundred eighty degrees.
He could not dodge in time and could only watch the Vortex crawl on him.
His nano fighting suit had long since been sliced apart by sharp claws and burned by spirit flames.
His skin was also covered in lacerations created by his spirit energy surging, his blood vessels protruding on his skin, and his muscles bulging.
In its transparent form, the Vortex easily invaded Meng Chao’s body through his bloody wounds.
It screeched and extended thousands of spider thread-like tentacles from its liquid body and wrapped them tightly around Meng Chao’s blood vessels, nerves, and bones.
Meng Chao was in so much pain that he nearly fainted.
But he gnashed his teeth together and crushed them so that his incredibly sensitive teeth nerves would be exposed to the air. He was using pain to make himself stay awake.
He reached out to yank the transparent liquid off his body, but the Vortex was like the strongest glue ever to be made. It stuck to his flesh and even bones.
When he tugged at it, he nearly yanked off his own bones, and it hurt so much that he saw stars. He could not even scream in pain.
Knowing that he could not yank the Vortex off his body, Meng Chao could only bring out the chain saber that was around his waist to cut off the entire piece of flesh that had been invaded by the transparent liquid.
But the final bits of brutality in the Vortex also showed up. Its invisible tentacles invaded Meng Chao’s blood vessels and bones, then took over his right thigh and lower body. Now, it was aiming for his organs.
Even if Meng Chao made a firm decision and cut off his entire right thigh, he could not solve the problem.
Unless he cut off his lower body as well…
Meng Chao shuddered.
He would rather die together with the Vortex.
“Meng Chao!”
Lu Siya and A’Ji screamed in despair.
Both of them saw the transparent liquid crawl into Meng Chao’s body through his wounds and only a tail end swing outside like a fat leech.
Once the Vortex completely entered Meng Chao’s body, it would occupy Meng Chao’s body just like how it took ownership of Xiong Ying and the Broken Claw Dragon.
Unless they threw Meng Chao into a volcano, it would be impossible to completely destroy this terrifying monster.
The problem was, even if Meng Chao was willing to sacrifice himself, after the Vortex ate so much Hell’s Blood, it would definitely be able to recover faster than Lu Siya and A’Ji.
At that time, no one would be able to kill it.
Once it ate Meng Chao’s brain, killed A’Ji as well as Lu Siya, ate all the materials in the secret lab and read all the data, then walked out with Meng Chao’s face, it could create a crazy story for the gangs and the abnormal beast research department.
The lair, no, Dragon City, would then meet the apocalypse in advance.
“I… won’t… let… you… win…”
Meng Chao’s face turned red because of how much he was trying to regain control. His neck also became three times thicker than usual.
He gave up on yanking the Vortex off. While he could still control his hands, he groped around for some other fire-type material or crystals to burn the Vortex to death.
The Vortex had already taken control of part of his nerves and discovered his intentions. Its screeches became even shriller as it tried to seize control of Meng Chao’s arms.
Meng Chao straightened his left arm and spread his fingers wide open. His knuckles popped, and he reached for a can of Flaming Griffin’s bone powder that was only a few centimeters away.
But his right hand struck the can away and sent the Flaming Griffin’s bone powder five meters away. It landed under the shelf in a corner.
The left side of Meng Chao’s body was now fighting against his right. He rolled around on the floor.
He groped around for a long time, but did not manage to grab onto a powerful incendiary agent to deal the deciding blow.
But at the last moment, he grabbed something cold and hard.
‘This is…’
Meng Chao’s eyeballs bulged up. He looked at his shivering left hand. It held a bottle of blue medicine.
It was Hell’s Blood 7, which had the greatest amount of spirit energy, but was also the most violent and dangerous. Its effects would be the combination of the six gene medicines before it.
The super gene medicine bottle was the size of a baby’s arm, yet it had more than one hundred Hell Beasts’ blood and essence in it. When Meng Chao and the Vortex’s vitality magnetic fields clashed madly, it gurgled as if it was boiling, making it seem like it had more than one hundred Hell Beasts’ souls sealed inside!
This fierce gene medicine was something that even Saber Jin Wanhao would not dare to inject directly into his body.
But Meng Chao did not have a better choice.
At that moment, the Vortex had already wrapped itself around his legs, stomach, and right arm.
All he had left in his control were his brain and left arm.
And thousands of threads from that transparent liquid were eagerly crawling to his face, trying to invade his brain through his orifices and control his cerebral cortex and central nervous system.
‘I have no choice!
‘Vortex, you like eating this really fierce super gene medicine, right?!
‘Then, drink to your heart’s content!’
Before the Vortex could register what was going to happen, Meng Chao roared and used all his strength to plunge Hell’s Blood 7 into the transparent liquid on his skin.
In half a second, Meng Chao injected more than one hundred Hell Beasts’ essence into the Vortex.
The Vortex let out a piercing screech.
After losing 90% of its mass and fighting fiercely for a long time against Meng Chao, even though it had managed to invade Meng Chao’s body, it had paid a terrible price for it, and it was incredibly weak.
It was so weak that it could not take in anything nutritious to help its body, so it could not possibly withstand rampaging spirit energy crashing like tidal waves into it.
Its cells exploded one by one. Its gene chains also broke link by link. It squirmed and screamed while it flung its semi-transparent tentacles around, but it could not stop more than one hundred Hell Beasts’ souls from charging around its body and destroying everything within reach.
Since a huge part of its tentacles had invaded Meng Chao’s body and were connected to his muscles, nerves, and even bones, a portion of Hell’s Blood 7 also invaded Meng Chao’s organs and limbs, causing Meng Chao to feel even more excruciating pain compared to the time he drank Hell’s Blood 4, 5, and 6.
However, compared to the Vortex struggling against death in the depths of the abyss, Meng Chao had two major advantages.
First, Hell’s Blood 7 was not directly injected into his body. Instead, it first went through the Vortex’s body.
The Vortex absorbed most of the destructive power contained in the super gene medicine before anything could be transferred over.
Meng Chao got to suck in a lot of spirit energy, while the Vortex helped him by withstanding most of the pain and side effects.
Second, every punch he delivered to the Vortex had given him loads of contribution points for severely damaging a Supernatural Entity.
The progress for the Mystery of the Supernatural Entities had also increased by leaps and bounds while he was fighting against the Vortex and gave him a lot of contribution points.
He gained an especially huge amount when he forced the Vortex out of the Broken Claw Dragon using Flaming Demon Subduing Pole and made it detonate 90% of its mass. Kindling had even determined this as delivering severe, irreversible damage to the Supernatural Entity, and it gave him a few ten thousand contribution points in one go as a reward.
Hence, Meng Chao had nearly a hundred thousand contribution points once more.
With these contribution points, he knew how he should digest that insane amount of rampaging spirit energy at the fastest speed possible!
‘Divine Nine Dragon Seals! What am I waiting for?! I can’t hold back! Level up!
‘Also, I’ll activate ten Middle Stage Healing Skills as an appetizer or just use them until my contribution points go to zero!’
As wisps of golden light circulated swiftly in Meng Chao’s body, it went through another drastic change as he received stimulation from Hell’s Blood, Kindling, his previous life’s memories, the rampaging spirit energy, and the Supernatural Entity.
When one side destroyed him, he healed.
When another side struck him, he rebuilt himself.
While the third side crushed him, he became stronger.
Each and every one of Meng Chao’s cells entered an amazing new world where they were covered in both ice and fire.
But the Vortex did not have such good luck.
The necessity for its innumerable number of its cells to split and heal finally caused it to spend all of its energy.
It could no longer withstand the rampaging spirit energy surging into its cells, and its cell membranes were torn.
The transparent liquid that covered Meng Chao’s body grew bigger like a balloon, but the larger it grew, the thinner it became. In the end, with a pop, it shattered and turned into numerous shining bubbles that fell down like rain.
It was a beautiful but bizarre sight that left A’Ji and Lu Siya dumbstruck. They could not snap out of their daze even after a long time had passed.
Once Meng Chao freed himself from the entanglement of the transparent liquid, he felt as if he woke up after a long period of hibernation. There was a storm raging in his head, and he could not form a single thought even after a long time passed.
The three of them looked at each other, then at the bubbles on the floor.
“Is it… finally over?”
They gulped.
Aside from swallowing their own saliva, they could do nothing else.
The bubbles formed after the Vortex collapsed were still squirming around and gradually formed a beautiful and magnificent flower of bubbles.
“No way, even after all this, I still didn’t kill you?”
Meng Chao truly felt tired now.
‘Just kill me already. And do it fast. I lost.’
The flower of bubbles bloomed, but what appeared was not the mini version of the Vortex.
Instead, it was a blurry but vivid figure of a woman.
It was formed by the seven colors that were reflected by the bubbles and looked just as alive as a 3D hologram.
“And what… the heck is this?”
Meng Chao did not sense any murderous intent or vitality magnetic fields from this illusion.
Now that he thought about it clearly, it was impossible for the Vortex to withstand Hell’s Blood 7’s impact, so it should be dead.
What he saw was its final message, so it could also be considered its will.
Meng Chao sighed in relief and observed the woman’s figure in the bubbles and ascertained that he had never seen her face in this life or his previous life.
But for some reason, he had a sense of deja vu.
After thinking about it carefully for a long time, Meng Chao came to an abrupt conclusion. It was her presence.
This bubble messenger had a really familiar presence.
It was the unique presence his sister had after she turned into the Dark Witch!
