This was...
After slowly setting down the last research report, Chiba sat beside an empty desk in the analysis lab, silent for a long while.
Cancer? A thought that was perhaps unprecedented in the history of transmigrators flashed through his mind.
After three whole hours and nearly three hundred pages of research data reports, Chiba had finally reached a conclusion.
Cancer.
Yes, cancer.
The most obvious finding in these three hundred-odd pages of research data was that the cells in his body were dividing at a rate far beyond normal, and there were also extremely frequent instances of cells devouring other cells. Chiba had never seen symptoms like these before.
As for this limitless multiplication and division of cells, cells devouring cells, and the like, Chiba could only think of one possibility.
Cancer cells.
Although the cancer cells in the cellular knowledge from his previous life had never divided as quickly as his cells did now, this was the only possibility Chiba could think of.
He had cancer.
But if he really had cancer, that seemed rather far-fetched. He had never seen a cancer patient who could eat with such gusto while their strength and Chakra continued to increase.
To be honest, after that thought, all he could do was smile wryly.
The state of his body probably could not be analyzed in a short time.
However, setting aside the cancer theory, earth-shaking changes had indeed occurred within his body. Leaving aside the cellular division and multiplication, the cells devouring other cells inside him alone required a great deal of data to determine exactly what was happening.
Although he now had the data, some parts still required careful deliberation, and Chiba could not draw a conclusion just yet. Besides, while those old scholars were formidable researchers, they sometimes used "new
