The Caicus was dug into with nails . It has scratched through and eaten the organs and fleshy parts . All that is left are parts like arms and calves .
‘I’ll recover a little with even that much . Let’s not get greedy and work easily . ’
There is no reason to get the Devil Saurus . It is enough to enter dangerous situations only when it is absolutely necessary .
The Devil Saurus disappears . This area must be under its influence .
The wind blows in Cha Jun Sung’s direction . It must keep blowing this way . It will become troublesome if the wind reverses and the Devil Saurus gets a whiff of him .
“That pig . It ate this up clean . A Caicus is several tons in weight . ”
Cha Jun Sung grumbles as he looks at the hacked up corpse . Then he put his hand where there is flesh left over .
A shadow draped over his hand for a moment, and strange teeth appeared all over his fingers and hand to swallow the flesh .
He stretched automatically without having to move, and sucked up the organ leftovers lying at a distance . He even clung to the skin and bones .
‘My strength is coming back . ’
If his state before had been a fiercely glowing flame that had been put out, he is now a wick that is flickering light since eating the Caicus’ corpse .
His dry skin becomes glossy . He did not get bigger, but his muscles become harder with the nutrient intake and his body is activated .
“I can recover 30 to 40% by eating . I have no choice but to depend on rest for the rest . It’ll be best not to fight beyond hunting . ”
It’s like Cha Jun Sung is a patient . If he had been a human, he would be getting an IV drip in the hospital right now .
He has no problem with motion as he is a level 8, but he has become weak . Eating a mutant will help him with nutrients and stamina .
If he wants to go back to normal, he must get an enormous supply of nutrients and treat his damaged body without resting . But does a patient get better just by eating?
Cha Jun Sung needs time . Like Medusa, he needs to get medical treatment for several months . He can take on hordes of level 6s once he is recovered to an extent, but it would be preferable to avoid level 7s .
A tiger does not get killed by a rabbit just because it is injured . But what if it is a fox? A fox would be able to rip the skin of an injured tiger .
“A little bit more… This isn’t enough . ”
It feels like he did not get to eat to the end . There is a saying, ‘Having too much is as bad as having too little’ . This is a case where Cha Jun Sung cannot agree .
“Should I catch it?”
The Devil Saurus is not far away . It is near . It cannot smell him because of the direction of the wind, so it will not have even realized his presence .
Cha Jun Sung considered it a bit and decided not to catch it . With this much, there will not be much of an issue in moving around .
It is also a good idea to eat level 1 and 2s while on his way to Czechoslovakia .
“Is there a supermarket somewhere? I’m sure something will come out . ”
There is a lot that he needs to find . This is the first time his residual period has been so long in Life Mission . The Dead Ark had been over 1 month . He cannot even get a sense of how much time has passed since he was taken over by the Oriax .
At least a few months must have passed, and the worst-case scenario could be years . Time is passing by even at this moment as he stands still .
“Some clothing at least . ”
Even if no one is watching, he is embarrassed to walk around **** . Though he has become a mutant, he still has a concept of clothing . He would cover himself with rags if he could .
Cha Jun Sung was about to walk in the opposite direction of where he could tell the Devil Saurus was . He must be unlucky, because the wind switched direction . Mutants’ sense of smell is similar to that of animals . It is different to the degenerated senses of humans .
“Ugh… . . Well . ”
The Devil Saurus sniffed and changed its direction to where Cha Jun Sung is . Why is it coming towards him? It is because of the unique smell . It is interested in this smell that he is experiencing for the first time .
Living as a predator, it did not think that there are individuals stronger than itself .
Cha Jun Sun did not move . He could run away immediately if he wants to . He would not have to go very far and all he would have to do is jump around on top of tall buildings . But that action in itself hurts his pride . He does not want to jump around in high places like a monkey just because of a dinosaur with large arms and legs .
The Devil Saurus looks on in puzzlement when he sees Cha Jun Sung, and goes around him in circles . It is on alert, but still puts its nose to him .
Cha Jun Sung’s face is possessed by a demon . It is partial . Horns come out and his face becomes black .
2 eyes become 9, and they look at the Devil Saurus .
[I’ll let you live . Go back . ]
He is speaking in mutant language . Humans will only hear it as growling, but Cha Jun Sung spoke so that the Devil Saurus could understand .
The Devil Saurus roars and smacks its tail down . A crater forms in the stone ground and the dust spreads everywhere . It is angry .
[This is my territory! I’m king! I say who has the right to live and die . You’re a crazy **** for giving orders to the king! I’ll kill you!]
Its tail attack is different from that of the Blood Suckers but still similar in strength, and sweeps ahead of it .
Cha Jun Sung throws his body back . His expression becomes heinous . Mutant instinct – it is rebellion for a lower level mutant to go against a higher level mutant .
‘Death with one blow will be difficult . I’ll shake up its core and cut off its mobility . ’
It avoids him well . The target is small, so hitting it is work in itself .
Cha Jun Sung watched for an opportunity . There is no effect in leaving a small wound . There is something he has had in mind since the Devil Saurus appeared . He will draw that out .
Cha Jun Sung’s right arm changes into a 2 meter sword . Then he transformed . This results in less energy consumption .
‘Tail, then legs . ’
The Devil Saurus has slower regeneration compared to mutants of its level . Instead, its skin is as thick as it is big and its muscles are tough, so those are at the same level . With the force of a level 8, he can cut through it as if it is jelly .
The transformed sword cuts the tail . Blood colors the ground . Because it is so thick, he needs to go at it twice before it is cut off .
Creatures that balance their weight with their tails find it hard to balance even if their two legs are in perfect condition .
Everything is relative . Battlesuit-wearing human Cha Jun Sung would have died after leaving minor wounds . But to mutant Cha Jun Sung who has become level 8, level 6 is just prey . Even when he has a major injury .
It did not even take a minute to cut its legs off in addition to the tail . They will regenerate if he lets it be, but he will not do that .
Kung!
“Don’t yell, you piece of trash . ”
Cha Jun Sung flashes a red light and chops up the Devil Saurus . When he digs into its chest, blood splatters onto Cha Jun Sung .
Reasoning becomes paralyzed . In the past, he would have avoided it out of fright but now, it just makes him happy . On top of that, the blood coming into his mouth is sweeter than a soft drink .
Cha Jun Sung’s body grows larger and he chomps on the Devil Saurus’ flesh . It is just exercise for his mouth and his entire body is already eating . A black shadow covered the Devil Saurus as though it is falling into quicksand . He is absorbing it whole rather than eating it by part .
Lower level mutants tremble in fear as the area’s dominating mutant is eaten by a stronger mutant . They watch in order to remember what Cha Jun Sung looks like . They need to know what he looks like so they can avoid him later . It is the method with which weaker creatures survive .
