When the giants had invaded Earth, humanity had also faced a parasitism crisis.
Back then, Mu You had only overcome that crisis by having everyone suspected of being a Parasitic Being die once, then resurrecting them all with his miracle Divine Authority.
But what about now? The wildmen could not be resurrected. How could he pick out the Parasitic Beings hiding among them without getting the entire tribe wiped out?
