Cha Jun Sung was far from the type of person who was able to convince others . Thus, he left the Lieutenant to Lim Si Hyun and Han Chang Jin . The result was a failure .

Even in a crazy state, he could calculate the pros and cons . He blocked all questions on the ark’s route in advance .

The 7th Lieutenant didn’t show any signs of improving either . What they knew was that it was a mental illness . They couldn’t cure him with medical equipment as it was not a disease or injury .

They worked for 3 weeks to find a solution, but they were just walking in circles .

In that time, they sent a few unmanned surveillance vehicles . They wanted to see how the city looked . It floated from a high position to send the terrain to the ark .

It was devastated because it was underdeveloped and neglected . The number of infected hosts was low as well . They also could not see the infected tree . It must have been hiding somewhere .

The force members worried every day of parasite attacks but fortunately, the ark was peaceful during that time .

As time passed, the time to choose between gathering achievement points and war came closer . They could not sit there and do nothing indefinitely .

After anchoring in Tonga, 1 month went by . Is it said that there was no such thing as chance in the world? It happened suddenly, without prior notice .

 

***

 

A bizarre looking mutant was barely visible in the sea .

From the shadow set by the sunlight alone, its flat shape seemed similar to that of a stingray but its size was greater than multiple large whales .

It was known as invincible in the ocean, a level 7 ocean mutant – Vergon .

“Let’s go faster . If we want to warm up before meeting it, we’ll barely make it . ”

Kung!

Pang!

The Vergon increased its speed . That was what the owner wanted . The water sprayed as the sound barrier was broken and there was a shockwave – a sonic boom .

If someone had seen this, they would not have realized what had just gone by . The speed itself exceeded the range of living beings .

The more interesting thing was the man who didn’t stray from the center of the Vergon . The friction in the atmosphere from the speed of sound could bend iron .

The man looked as though he was just getting some fresh air and gazed at the island that showed faintly . It was Tonga, a place he had never heard of .

“It is at a cost, but to think of doing a human a favor . ”

One day, a human who looked exactly like his father appeared .

The human spoke to the man . If the man listened to his request, the human would teach him the location of where a very strong mutant lived .

The man’s body part changed and spat out a thick notepad . The human said that all he needed to do was deliver this to another human .

The mutant was told that the human he needed to deliver the notepad to was on the island .

Everything said was unfounded but he had gotten involved because of his father who he sincerely admired . His father accepted the human .

His father had not even shown him his attack power, but showed consensus with the human . He was jealous of this new image of his father but he had not shown it .

“If we fought, could I win?”

The man thought for a moment and then shook his head . Though it may hurt his pride, he couldn’t fool himself . He might be able to wound him, but he would not be able to win .

He was a human who was not a human . Could he be described as a mutant wearing the mask of a human?

‘Go and come back . ’

He remembered what his father said to him when he was leaving . He did not lose the feeling that he wanted there to be something more behind the indifferent face .

“I guess I’ll know once I meet the owner of the notepad… . . We’ve arrived . ”

The man’s eyes widened . It was an eerie feeling . It was so red that it looked like rubies were put in . Looking closely, he had a pair of red horns on his forehead .

Vergon slowed down . It left its body to the waves and touched on shore .

The man got down from the Vergon’s back . It had taken a few days to get here from the southern end of Asia . He had been bored seeing only blue for all of that time .

“Hang out nearby . ”

Kung!

The Vergon dived deep into the ocean . It was not common in the sea . It didn’t have any natural enemies in the sea, so there was no need to worry .

“Mother of parasites . Parasite King? Because it’s a parasite?”

The man headed straight for the city . The human said that the Parasite King’s habitat was New Zealand, but it came to Tonga occasionally .

It came to eat the infection tree’s fruits once every few months .

From the man’s standpoint, the fruits were not important . There were 2 things he needs to do . Fight with the Parasite King and deliver the notepad .

Kiik!

As he passed the waterfront and came closer to the city, the man could sense the uncomfortable sounds made by what he guessed were cross breeds of parasites .

“Come out, Parasite King . ”

A murderous **** blew out from the man’s body and he simultaneously disappeared . He intended to bother the servants until the owner of the house came out .

 

***

 

The Parasite King, configured of a clear liquid, was eating the infection when it reacted to the murderous **** he could feel from nearby .

“What a bother . ”

Gate crashers were increasing . Not too long ago, a stationary ship started moving and this time, someone was making a mess nearby .

It left the ship alone because it did not show much movement . But this situation was different . Something of a similar class had invaded its area .

This was an island . It was not a place where a mutant can come unless it had come here on purpose . They would need to meet .

Kiik .

The infection tree is smaller than most trees, and it was trembling with the sense of the murderous **** . It was scared because it instinctively knew that it was not a match for it .

The size was such that when excluding the fruits, it couldn’t be distinguished from normal trees with the naked eye . It would not be detected by the UAVs .

“It’s okay . ”

The Parasite King pated the infection tree and picked off another fruit . Hundreds of parasites were swarming inside the pulp .

Unlike a mixed breed, it was very useful . It could be left for a while to eat .

Kung!

The gate crasher roared . It was thrilling . It was a snicker, full of confidence .

Parasite King spewed energy . It was a governing king . It would not go to look for the intruder itself . It was a given that the one with something to say would come .

The opponent tracked the atmosphere . It was coming closer . Why had it come all the way to Tonga? It was resentful but also curious .

 

***

 

The red eyes looked over the Parasite King . It was observing before fighting .

“Are you the king of parasites?”

“Who are you?”

“You have learned the human language… as is fitting for the king of parasites who lives off of others . ”

“Who are you?”

“I’m Asia’s Red Eye . ”

The man glared with his blood red eyes . The concentration thickens .

Parasite King felt a strong sense of core from the man . It was pure . There was a desire to fight without any ambition .

“Did you come this far to Tonga just to fight with me?”

“30 points . ”

“30 points?”

“Fighting with you is to fulfill my desire, but I need to block you to reduce harm for him and to deliver the notepad . ”

Parasite King couldn’t understand what Red Eye was saying . He was not explaining anything and only discussing things vaguely, so it was a definite that he would not understand .

“I won’t kill you . I just need to confirm that I’m stronger than you . ”

“You’re arrogant . ”

Only Red Eye’s father could dominate him . He had taken over all mutants . That is how he proved his bloodline .

There was no need to talk more . The Parasite King and Red Eye clashed violently . At the same time, Cha Jun Sung’s group was also watching the fight from afar .
