Can We Still Meet Again?

In the Hunter's Dream.

"Hey, did you know you have a twin sister?"

"Hey, do you know how to get to a building like a clock tower?"

"Hey, do you know your sister's name?"

"Na na."

The Doll's face showed a rare slight frown, because someone was being incredibly noisy.

"Oh! That's the expression of a slight frown. If you could add a touch of murderous intent, it would be even more convincing!"

You Fei exclaimed with slight excitement, making no attempt to hide her interest in the Doll's "older sister," even though she still didn't know Maria's name.

The Doll wasn't usually a talkative person, and Fan En and the others wouldn't deliberately bother her, but would simply admire her from afar with reverent eyes.

Since the Doll prepares a big meal every night, there is ample reason to believe that Fan En and the others actually regard her as their caretaker.

This is the first time I've encountered a doll who is like You Fei, Doll who will relentlessly pursue any topic that interests them. Sure enough, they are completely incompatible.

At first, she would answer the other person's questions, but now all she can do is nod yes or shake her head no, almost showing her helplessness on her face.

It's hard to believe that Doll could have such delicate emotional expression. The person who created her must have put in a lot of effort and observed the prototype for who knows how long.

"You know nothing?"

With no results from her inquiries, You Fei lay back down in the flowerbed, somewhat disappointed. The Messengers watched her from afar, seemingly hesitant to approach.

"Come to think of it, it really felt like a dream."

She touched her face, which had returned to normal, without any trace of the mutated creature's parasitism. In fact, her skin seemed to have improved, making her wonder if her previous experience was just a dream.

However, experts at her level can sense changes in their bodies. After her battle with Maria, it seemed that something had been added to her blood, proving that her memory was accurate.

Anything that enters her body without her knowledge is something to be wary of, especially blood, which easily reminds her of the strange things she saw when she was empathizing with Fan En, such as that invisible yet seemingly omnipresent being.

However, she did not sense any danger from the abnormality in her blood. In fact, it could be said that her strength had been slightly enhanced by the blood. Even a small enhancement is still an enhancement.

Until it is proven that these abnormalities are indeed harmful to the body or a way to separate them from one's own blood is found, we can only wait and see.

On the other hand, considering Maria's earlier act of injecting blood into her body, You Fei had deduced that the other party was actually saving her.

Right now, my favorability rating is going up again!

When can we meet again?

She rolled around in the flowerbed, her shoulders swaying.

Don't get me wrong, she doesn't think she's been turned gay. She just feels that Mary perfectly matches the image of a caring older sister she's always wanted since she was a child. Plus, she just had her life saved by Mary. The combination of these two factors makes her affection for Mary spin like a drill and break through the sky.

"I've heard that there's a trend lately of choosing a particular dungeon as your 'main dungeon,' so should I make this my main dungeon?"

If that's the case, then Dad's true identity must be Sien? But I still don't know the name of this dungeon.

You Fei shook her little face and thought:

Anyway, this dungeon has cool older sisters, so in my mind it has already surpassed the Zane Dungeon!

After her thoughts wandered for a while, she jumped up again, regaining her energetic state, and asked the Doll, "Is there a way out?"

Having spent a considerable amount of time in the dungeon, she still remembered her mission. Now that she had broken free from the parasite's control, she was ready to go all out and clear out the Savis City!

This time she learned her lesson and will never empathize with others so easily again!

With a slight movement of her hand, the Doll created a portal that appeared in front of You Fei.

"Thanks, I'll be back!" You Fei shook her two fingers together, flicked her sleeve, and walked into the portal with a dashing back view.

Doll: "."

You'd better not come back.

The Lord's Room in the Zane Dungeon.

The Shrine was now covered with a thick layer of white cloth, but parts of the cloth were stained with blood and the sound of flesh being cut could be heard from the Shrine.

If it weren't for the bright lighting here, one might think they'd stumbled into the operating room of some perverted doctor.

The mutant that had previously parasitized You Fei now lay obediently on the white sheet, its body cut open, with its various organs neatly arranged. With a little formalin, it could be preserved.

It was not dead yet, but it had fallen into a strange state, as if it were trapped in a deep dream from which it could not wake up, allowing its body to be manipulated by others.

The person who manipulated its body was naturally Gong Qiying.

At this moment, he changed into a white coat that doctors often wear, and put on a pair of strangely shaped gloves. He used various tools to conduct in-depth and simple communication with the parasite's body. Not only the mutated species, but also various types of parasites were placed on the table next to him, all sorted out in categories.

The anatomical marks on these insects are quite detailed, as if they were made by a professional doctor, and they are actually quite pleasing to the eye.

Strange, when did Gong Qiying learn this technique?

Actually, this is thanks to the wonderful little gadget he has, namely that strangely shaped pair of gloves.

[Hand of God · Perfectionist]

[A glove-type Imperial Arm, capable of inducing hundreds of times more precise finger movements, facilitating the creation of various sophisticated weapons, and also used for healing the human body]

The strange item from Akame ga Kill!! is now proving useful, making him realize he was right to have read the manga.

But simply having the boost from items isn't enough; you also need the relevant knowledge.

Besides the maintenance and design of the underground city, Gong Qiying doesn't just wander around looking for fun all day; he also studies and learns.

He had been thinking for a long time that although the monsters he could summon were of unimaginably high quality, that was all he knew about them.

There are many monsters with unique abilities in this world. If possible, Gong Qiying actually hopes to expand the local monster resources among the Available Monster. Therefore, he has been learning some monster-related knowledge intermittently, and gradually made several simple monsters his own.

After witnessing the Sealed Object of the dungeon, he had a sudden burst of inspiration and thought:

Is it possible to turn Sealed Object into your own Available Monster?

He posed this question to several city lords, and the answers he received were all the same:

I've never thought about this question!

The city lords' reactions were all peculiar; it was clear they hadn't considered turning the Sealed Object into their own power, which felt rather eerie.

Since he couldn't rely on other city lords, Gong Qiying had no choice but to rely on himself, starting with treating the Hidden Blood Parasite.

"As expected, it's really, really hard to learn about monsters from scratch."

After a long time, the "Hidden Blood Parasite" option was still not added to the list of Available Monster.

Gong Qiying put down the dissection tools, casually retrieved the Imperial Arms and the white coat, and threw the mutated creature, whose dissection marks were gradually recovering, into the blood used for blood therapy. The latter immediately slept even more soundly.

The blood used in blood therapy does not directly kill the parasites, but it fascinates them, drawing their minds to what it contains, and then they fall into a vegetative state and lose their vitality. This is the principle behind Fan En and his team's resistance to parasites.

With this power, Gong Qiying can obtain information from parasites, especially highly intelligent mutants.

For example, the news he just learned from this mutant species—the Insect King is in the capital of Red.

Savis City, along with several other fallen cities, served as breeding grounds for parasites. In addition to being transformed into parasites, the humans there were also processed into fleshy balls for breeding more advanced parasites. These were then transported to the capital through tunnels and supplied to the insect king for his use.

What's even more shocking is that the Insect King's operation has already begun, which is why there's no longer a need for this highly intelligent mutant captured by the dungeon.

As expected, it's a traditional skill: the enemy is at their own base.

"The new white-haired girl seems to really like Maria, so let's just keep her hanging on like this."

A smile crept onto his lips; he loved seeing people like You Fei or Serena.

Once You Fei is released, she should be able to work with Fan En and the others to wipe out Savis City, thus completely reclaiming the city.

Gong Qiying wasn't sure if they knew about the Insect King. If they didn't, he would have to find a way to spread the news so he could guide them through the tunnel to the capital and take down the Insect King before it even became a threat.

"But we have to consider that the number of survivors is too small, and the power of the insect king in the capital is unclear. With only these people, it will be difficult to make a difference."

Even if they could wait for the dungeon to lure the Insect King over, how many people would die in the meantime? Gong Qiying considered the people of this land as his future reserve of hidden Spirit Power, and not a single one could be lost!

"Then, it's time to send reinforcements."

He opened the "Comrades" module and looked at the character portraits of various adventurers.

A flaming sword, a bow in the left hand, Greatshield, and swift slashes—they were truly a group of talented individuals.

It's time for the veteran adventurers to give Reid a little bit of a shock from the Saen.
