Capítulo 60: Goo
Chapter 60

…
Slush!!! Slush!!!
The sound of the 'lake' echoed through the cavern walls as the gigantic slime slowly devours and dissolves the giant warthog that fell on its body.
As I look at this scene with a horrified expression in my eyes I did not dare take my eyes away from the gigantic slime. This is because I did not want to be its next meal.
However, I soon discovered something. This slime is actually sitting on a basketball-sized crystal stone that is sticking on the ground.
From what I could see inside the transparent slime, there is something protruding from the ground and it seems that this slime is either absorbing its power or protecting it. Either way, the slime dare not go out from that place.
Then when the warthog was completely absorbed, I saw some of its essences drifting in the air as it envelopes the area with a whiff of calm energy which revitalizes my body a little.
So this is the reason why the energy in this place is such good and why many animals are being tempted in here.
Then I saw the bones of the giant warthog being push to the side by its long tentacles.
"Hmm… I wonder…" I suddenly had an impulse to do something.
I took some of the bones on the side and suddenly pick up something that is taller than me. I then threw it towards the slime.
As it enters the slime's body it began to push it outside. I quickly dashed towards the direction it is pushing the bone to.
Then with a swipe of a knife from my side, I cut off a piece of its tentacle.
I did not hesitate to run away to the far side and began observing that sliced piece. As I observe, I could feel something in some of the white liquid which seems to be its blood.
'Warning… Parasite detected… Qi field activated…'
When I saw that red blaring warning sign, I then saw my body suddenly glowing a little. Then the warning sign stopped.
"What happened?" I muttered.
'A parasite is trying to invade the host's skin. Host's Qi can be used to purge the parasite.'
It was a simple answer but I now knew the cause. So my Qi can do that.
I thought, I began to concentrate my Qi and make it flow out of my body and began to envelop the whole piece of the slime's tentacle.
Pssshhh!!!
There was a slight sound of something being dissolve by heat. I could even see something evaporating from the slime's tentacle piece.
"Hmm… Can I… eat this?" I thought.
I wanted to think otherwise but it is very tempting. When I saw the slime healing the beasts, then spreading its parasite on those healed beasts, I was a bit confused why it was doing so. However, upon thinking about the parasites, I could somewhat feel that it is actually doing this to control the mind of the beast.
That enraged beast would go out, pick a fight, then drag its opponent inside. Then the slime would feed on that corpse while the beast would continue doing so until it has served its purpose.
"This slime is too clever…" I thought then slightly put my finger on the white liquid.
I slightly tasted it and when it touches my tongue, I suddenly feel a slight elation within me.
'Host's rapid regeneration was triggered… Rapid regeneration in 1 second…'
I was a bit shocked. But it also made me happy. With one taste, I could get a 1-second rapid regeneration. What if I take a chunk out of it, then…
"Haha… This is too amazing." I thought as I look around and then decided to leave this place.
But before that, I have to take some more of the slime's tentacles for emergency cases.
I left that cave and then went back to where I left the young woman. When I got there, I still saw her lying on the ground without moving.
"Is she dead?" I muttered.
But when I saw her moving a little, I carefully made her lay on her back. Suddenly the woman moved and in her mouth, there is a sharp object.
But before she could do anything, I have already gotten hold of her head.
"Tsk… Tsk… Miss, I did not know who you are, but if you harm me or anything. I will make sure to leave you in the stomach of any beasts in this place." I warned her.
The young woman still glares at me, but I did not want to bother with her.
"Are you hungry? How long were you tied in this place?" I asked as if I was not the one who tied her.
She frowns but still glares at me.
"Who… Who are you?" she suddenly asked but still has suspicion in her eyes.
"I was just passing by. So how long were you tied? Maybe those people are still here…" I asked fanning ignorance.
"Two… two days already…" she answered.
"Really, you are very lucky that you were not eaten by any wild beasts here," I said as I showed a hint of a surprise.
She did not say anything and just shifted her eyes to the side.
I then took the blade on the ground which has fallen from her mouth and then cut off the plastic handcuffs from her arms and legs.
I could already see the traces of the marks from her wrists and ankles. And I felt a bit sorry, but of course, that was in passing since she is still a young woman and has not threatened my life yet.
"I will be leaving now, bye…"
"Wait… I… Can you take me with you? I… I have lost my team… I… I don't want to go back to Hunter's association…" she suddenly said.
"Why is that? Since you are a Hunter… that is where you should be going, right?"
"I… I'm not a Hunter yet. I am being trained by Uncle Gao and Uncle Lee… But now... But now they are dead because… because of me." She said while slightly trembling.
I was a bit hit by my conscience at this moment. I knew that it was my fault in the first place. However, if I did not act at that time, I am also not sure if these people would spare my life. They are Hunters, after all, my enemy.
"I could not help you with that… I just wanted to tell you this before you decide. Hunters are my enemy. I will not spare any of you if I see one. If you are a Hunter, I will also kill you right at this moment." I said as a strong killing intent suddenly erupted from my body.
I could see the young woman trembling in fear while looking at me.
She bit her lips and then lowered her head.
I then turn around and then was about to leave when she suddenly asked something.
"Was… Was it you? Was it you who knock me out?" she said with a hint of complex emotion in her tone.
"Yes… It is either I die or they die. That is my choice…"
"Then why did you not kill me?" she asked as she lifted her face with indignation.
"I… I once have a friend. She is my age. I lost her because of some people… the people the Hunters works for. And I felt that I saw her image in you…" I said without turning around.
I then dashed away from the area leaving the slightly confused young woman.
After going out of the forest, I directly went back to the place where those girls are staying. I did not know how long was I gone, and I hope that they are doing fine.
As soon as I reached the outer border of the forest, I was immediately greeted by rapid gunfire.
I frowned and quickly ran in the direction of the firefight. I jumped towards the roof so that I could easily survey the ground.
From where I stood now, I could see two trucks which I know are carrying Hunters and some armed men.
Then I saw that they are trying to attack a particular two-story house. Leading that group of men is a tall figure which is the one who caused me to be filled with anger a while back.
Upon seeing that man my body is already filled with killing intent. And it seems that most of the people who are assaulting the two-story house felt my killing intent as their weapons began to point in my direction.
I could not control myself anymore at this time as the anger in my heart is already erupting. All I wanted right now is to destroy every single one of them.
Well, one of the reasons why I am feeling this way is because of what I heard from inside the house.
"Sister Yunya… please, hold on… please…" the panicking voice of Zhang Wanwan echoed through my sharp hearing and it immediately made me almost lose my mind.
