New Potion X Target of Hatred

So-called human society.

Essentially, it's an isolated zone far removed from the main world, the Dark Continent.

It was discovered and isolated by human ancestors themselves.

From Kevin's current perspective...

It's actually a kind of isolation zone, similar to a folded space.

However, the folding space appears to be even more exaggerated.

The isolation zones established by human ancestors involved creating extremely long distances and constructing Succession Ceremony in desolate areas to Blockade the human world.

This is to keep the disaster out.

The effect is beyond doubt.

Without such achievements, humanity would not have grown to a population of billions.

But this also shows that humans themselves are a species of the Dark Continent.

Furthermore, it has produced powerful figures at the Lord Level.

In this case.

Humans are undoubtedly gifted.

Unlike most creatures, who, in order to survive, allocate certain talents to their infancy and are born strong, humans seem to allocate their talents to their potential.

Human potential is beyond doubt.

The Nen ability is born from the union of mind and spirit.

This has endowed humanity with versatile talents and endless possibilities.

And emotions serve as fuel in this process.

When our ancestors enclosed this area and made it the place where humanity continued to exist, they must have already foreseen this.

Humans will become increasingly weak here.

There is no perfect way to avoid disaster.

Something always has to be sacrificed.

Based on current understanding of the Undying disease, Kevin probably already knows why it's called a catastrophic event for the species. Lord Level beings can't solve it, and Knight-level beings can't avoid it.

Once compromised, it will be replaced.

The life that is invaded and replaced will become a new life that possesses everything about its own race, and will have sufficient knowledge of its own race and absolute malice.

The more numerous a race is, the more Lord Level beings it can produce.

A race capable of giving rise to even more Lord Level beings must be few in number.

This forms a closed loop.

Kevin, possessing Lord Level, could effectively eliminate hordes of infected individuals if given the right methods.

We need a medicine.

While Beyond was on his way, Kevin asked for a room.

They used the [Book of Teleportation] to teleport and exchange with members who remained in the Manor.

When the bubbles in front of you burst.

A pile of materials wrapped in a box fell to the ground.

Kevin immediately dragged the box over and opened it.

The materials I needed were inside.

There are more than a dozen different kinds in total.

He couldn't determine which of the possible outcomes would lead to his desired result, so he collected all the materials that suggested a possibility.

Based on his current experience, he believes that a new drug should be able to be developed from this.

Because he possessed an important primary material.

With that thought in mind, Kevin took out the most important heart from the box.

"The Shaiapouf's Heart"

That's right, the last remaining heart of the Ant King and his Royal Guards.

The heart of the Youpi has two similar characteristics.

Most importantly, the potion made from it could potentially enhance Kevin's [Cocoon of Rebirth].

Because it seems that Youpi inherited some of the Queen's power, although he cannot carry out new hatching, he can transform non- Chimera Ant races into Chimera Ant soldiers.

Another characteristic is Youpi's own Nen ability; he can split himself and also incorporate the Butterfly Dust properties of his Chimera Ant into his Nen ability.

This also gives its heart this characteristic.

Kevin himself also possesses a similar Nen ability, but Kevin Nen ability is not very lethal in this aspect; it is more used for investigation, hypnosis, and control.

But what he's demanding now is absolute lethality.

The requirement is for widespread destruction, because once controlled, it is easy for the enemy to detect, and then the perpetrator can commit suicide and leave with the message.

This is not what he wanted.

Once exposed in a city, the other Parasite People within it will inevitably try to escape or cause even greater chaos. This will only lead to more serious consequences.

Therefore, Kevin wants to improve his abilities in this area.

He thought it was feasible.

I just kept picking and choosing.

Finally, five potentially suitable materials were identified.

Three A-Rank and two top-tier B-Rank.

At this stage, Kevin's materials will mostly be A-Rank, as his trip to the Dark Continent greatly enriched his inventory.

Although many materials cannot be obtained repeatedly, the creatures of the Dark Continent are large enough that even the materials that are difficult to obtain repeatedly are all incredibly large.

They took a portion and made many of each.

He summoned his own Medicine Tripod.

Add this part of the material.

The main material is based on the Ant Heart.

Kevin requested a suitable amount of Nen ability from the drug, rather than a strong one, so he also preserved the portion of Youpi's heart that could strengthen the Cocoon of Rebirth.

After all, the Cocoon of Rebirth is the final quality assurance for the entire exploration team.

It is the ultimate guarantee that all injuries, except those to the soul, can be healed.

As the Medicine Tripod was activated.

Pharmaceutical manufacturing begins.

With Kevin's current abilities, creating this potion wouldn't take too much time or effort.

Early the next morning.

Only liquid remained in the Medicine Tripod.

The liquid is guided out and poured into the medicine bottle.

At this moment, the inside of the potion bottle shimmered with a light like a galaxy, filled with countless starlight.

It resembles Phosphor Powder, and also like a galaxy.

They took the medicine and arrived at the makeshift Training Ground.

This is a basketball court that was vacated in the hotel where we stayed. It's not big, but it's enough.

Upon hearing the news, Netero rushed over.

Others were already used to it and didn't find it strange.

Kevin made many potions while on the Dark Continent, some with strange and unusual functions, and sometimes it was unclear whether they actually had any real effect.

Therefore, the stockpiled medicines are far too numerous.

The medicine bottle was flicked.

A mosquito-like creature shaped like Syringe solidified in the air.

The liquid form of the medicine is stored in it.

It flew onto Kevin and inserted a needle.

Liquid is injected into it.

As the liquid flowed in, Kevin habitually closed his eyes, savoring the sensation.

The Nen ability of [Blank Meteor] has long been integrated into the body's instincts, easily imprinting the changes and memories brought about by the potion onto the body.

"Phew, this result is even better than I expected."

Opening his eyes, Kevin's eyes flashed with rare surprise. He had never imagined that the Youpi's heart could bring about such a peculiar change.

Kevin's unique condition allows him to project his air like a probe, expanding the scanning range.

The only person he had encountered in a similar situation was Neferpitou.

This Cat Woman can make her energy form completely irregular shapes, drifting freely.

It seems that the potion from Youpi fused with some non-characteristic abilities that Cat Woman had previously retained in her body, and this, combined with Kevin's own special circumstances, created a unique reaction.

Kevin raised his hands, and a large amount of Nen Aura flew out.

These Nen Aura are so subtle that they are perfectly round.

That's right, Kevin turned his circle into a floating object that resembled Phosphor Powder.

It's not just irregular; it can reduce air consumption like dust in the air, and it can be released over a wide area, penetrating every corner. This is a very good characteristic.

This means that the circle can expand outwards more discreetly and without being noticed by others.

Moreover, it can spread further; the only problem is that, for this reason, it needs to drift rather than be shot directly.

Therefore, its speed at close range is no different from that of a normal circle, but once the distance is increased to tens or even hundreds of kilometers, it will take a certain amount of time to drift past.

It doesn't travel as fast as a normally fired circle.

But this doesn't mean that a normal circle can't be used, so they become completely complementary, giving Kevin more options.

"Is this a circle?"

Netero clearly sensed the invisible Phosphor Powder floating in the air.

Upon reaching out and touching it, and feeling it closely, I noticed that it had characteristics similar to a circle.

But it's very subtle.

Kevin looked at him, smiled, and nodded.

"How about that? If someone is completely unprepared, isn't it hard to detect?"

Netero nodded in agreement without even realizing it.

"In everyday life, if such a circle floated by, unless it was arranged too densely around me, I definitely wouldn't be able to notice it for a while."

"I'm serious," Netero said.

This is a very skillful technique.

It's important to know that the detection of a circle is so precise, like an all-around scanning machine, leaving no one undetected.

Many Nen ability can be detected by sweeping.

In this situation, it's even more terrifying if someone else's circle is also concealed.

"It's not that simple."

Kevin said, reaching out and hooking again.

The originally circular Nen Aura gathered together, forming a circle in the air.

This cluster of objects gathered together and condensed, forming an attack that floated there like Nen Orb.

"Bang!"

The Nen Orb exploded.

The impact created a gust of wind.

However, Netero, who was standing right next to him, remained unmoved.

Kurapika felt this power.

"It's very weak, and the fact that it's clustered together like this is already quite obvious."

This means that the more Nen Aura gathered, the easier it is to be detected; although the greater the power, the easier it is to evade.

"But what if it's inside the body?" Netero asked.

Everyone immediately understood.

The Phosphor Powder Nen Aura, like dust, can be inhaled into the body.

When inhaled, it is easily detected by the body's own Qi.

But the question is, what are their goals?

Their target is a large number of ordinary people without Nen ability, and they intend to inflict absolute casualties on them.

They cannot clearly sense the Qi. This Qi condenses within their bodies and then explodes; even a small clump can cause fatal injuries.

In this situation, only death can make the body immortal.

This means that one's will must be separated from the body.

Kevin's large-scale circle can be used on multiple targets, even tens of thousands of targets.

His Nen Aura was perfectly capable of withstanding such a drain.

Even those Nen user can be injured internally by this attack. Whether they die is uncertain, but the injury is enough. It's equivalent to leaving a mark.

Only those Nen user can completely evade it.

However, these Nen user are rare, a pitifully small number compared to the hundreds of thousands or even millions of potential Parasite People, and can be easily defeated one by one. Furthermore, the Phosphor Powder in this potion can be incorporated into the Cocoon of Rebirth, allowing Kevin to more precisely control the person about to be reborn within the Cocoon of Rebirth.

Kevin named the drug.

[Phosphor Dust of En]

The drug had just been tested when news came from outside that Beyond had arrived.

Soon, several people were brought in.

Everyone looked.

Beyond was accompanied by two core members of his team.

One of the members was missing his left forearm and hand.

It seems something must have happened during this period.

Beyond walked in, he didn't even glance at Netero; his eyes were fixed on Kevin.

He had already heard about Kevin and the others' return, and the achievements they might bring back.

He had to say it.

He probably felt ashamed of himself.

This was even before he was aware of Kevin and others' achievements.

Netero looked at his son, his tone calm, but with a hint of displeasure.

"You've failed again, and now you need others to clean up your mess and make everyone bear the consequences of your actions." Why did Netero only implement the Blockade policy against the Dark Continent after his son's return?

Firstly, because it is indeed dangerous.

Secondly, it was because his son failed.

He didn't completely want to Blockade his son's exploration of the Dark Continent, but there would be a price to pay for continuing the exploration.

This period of time also allowed my son to accumulate more experience and calm down.

The result was still a failure.

"This is indeed my problem, and I won't run away from it."

Beyond said directly.

Then he looked at Kevin.

"Although I'd love to hear more from you about the Dark Continent, that's clearly not the point right now."

"Let me tell you what I know. First of all, the initial Parasite People were undoubtedly all those guys who returned alive from the Dark Continent. All the Parasite People intentionally set their primary target on us, and Pariston was the first in the team to be parasitized." Hearing that Pariston was the first to be parasitized, everyone frowned.

"Because this is indeed a difficult guy, and if he's been parasitized, the problem might be more serious than they imagine, "Beyond said.

"I realized this later, but by then we were already being hunted down. Everyone who returned from the Dark Continent was being hunted, and my team was the primary target."

Upon hearing this, Netero frowned and immediately retorted.

"But it seems that Maitai and his group haven't been hunted down or targeted?"

Unless they have already been parasitized.

But they had met Kevin before, and Kevin hadn't noticed anything.

"This is the important information I brought, and I hope it can make up for the problems I brought."

"These parasitized people are not simply replaced personalities; their personalities and emotions remain their own. They may have been implanted with a concept of revenge against their own kind."

"They still have their own feelings and preferences, and their ideas of revenge are very likely derived from those I abandoned on the Dark Continent. According to the current theory, aren't they the source of the Undying disease?"

After listening to this whole theory...

Kevin was the first to believe it.

Because he keenly noticed something.

The role played by human emotions and will.

It must be admitted that human emotions and will seem to be the most important things for humankind.

This seems to be some kind of human talent.

If it could have some effect on the Undying disease, it might be possible.
