Chapter 123: Slushee

"Invaders?"

Hugh repeated the single sentence that professor Kain had uttered. He could see the seriousness in the professor's eyes. Most importantly, he had already heard this word before.

The emergency mission that he had gotten from the system had wanted him to eliminate the invader. He did not know that the invader had come from the outside.

"Yes, the invaders. They are an annoying little bunch."

Professor Kain seemed to have spite coming out of his mouth as he belittled the invaders. He seemed to know more about them, and it intrigued Hugh even more.

"What are they?"

Hugh wanted to know more about the invaders so that he would know what he would be dealing with. Professor Kain might even know how he would be able to defeat it.

"They are maggots, parasites the lot of them. Once one gets here, a whole colony will soon spawn."
