"Is this... a third-tier Calamity Projection?"
Lu Ziye murmured under his breath, his perpetually red-glowing pupils trembling violently.
After all, he had seen the Pale Mite's panel notification earlier. How could he not know what [Ji Luo]'s grotesque state meant?
This was the fucking final stage of parasitism!
Ever since [Ji Luo] had escaped Feather Town, Lu Ziye had been secretly monitoring his condition!
He had been on guard against this all along!
Lu Ziye reacted with lightning speed!
He immediately sprang back five or six meters!
Straining his voice, Lu Ziye roared at the players who were about to approach:
"Guys! Stay back!"
"Ji's been parasitized!"
"He's about to explode! Everyone, get ready! Throw Ashen Missiles at him!"
"Huh?"
"What? Even Ji God got infected?"
The players who had been about to ask for information about Feather Town immediately stopped, staring uncertainly at [Ji Luo] standing before them.
"Listen up, everyone! Don't let him near the main group!"
His eyes bloodshot, Lu Ziye shouted:
"Before the swarm inside him fully erupts and spreads!"
"Everyone, right now! Immediately! Use Ashen Missile on Ji God!"
"Blast him to ash with fireballs!"
Although killing a teammate who had fought beside them seemed morally cruel.
In this hardcore, fully immersive Wasteland World!
Especially when faced with such a twisted parasitism mechanic!
Even a moment's hesitation or misplaced compassion could wipe out the entire team!
Besides, the person before them was no longer "Ji Luo," but the sinister Pale Mite!
As battle-hardened members of the Fourth Catastrophe.
Though everyone was shocked, their hands did not hesitate for an instant!
"Sorry about this, Ji God!"
"Rest in peace, Ji God! We'll wait for you at the respawn point!"
"Ashen Missile! Here we go!"
Dozens of players roared in unison.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
Dozens of black-smoke
