Cute Bug Overlord, Joining the Chat Group!

For now, they could only barely maintain a stalemate.

It had come as a surprise to her that these captured mercenaries were willing to fight alongside Babel's forces.

After all, Sarkaz mercenaries were very good at going with the wind.

It was precisely because mercenaries named Hoederer and Ines were present that the Confessor guards on the battlefield had not torn through the line outright.

The pitch-black monster swung its claws, temporarily forcing back the guards' assault.

"Then why aren't you arranging a breakout?"

Ines glared at Kal'tsit.

In the current situation, breaking out was the best option.

The Regent's elites were not something her people could hold back.

Babel had too few people. They had only barely established a defensive line around the crude camp—

And this fucking camp had been built by the people she and Hoederer had arranged earlier!

"Reinforcements are on their way. I need to hold this position."

Kal'tsit's expression remained unchanged.

She believed in Theresa's arrangements.

And this place could not be handed over to the Regent either—

The virus had already spread.

They had discovered it when conducting examinations on Babel's people earlier.

Kal'tsit had simply kept quiet about it.

But there was good news—

For now, the virus's effects on the human body were benign. It could even help suppress Oripathy.

Perhaps the virus could be used to produce an Originium inhibitor.

That was what she thought.

But if the virus fell into Theresia's hands—

Kal'tsit did not know whether the Regent would create something horrifying.

For example, an uncontrollable virus.

The Zerg could affect the rate at which infected individuals progressed, thereby controlling the virus's effects on the human body.

But if Theresia somehow created an uncontrollable virus that the Zerg could not influence, there was no telling what would happen.
