Ch. 3031..3040

Chapter 3031 Do You Think You Are An Invincible Deity

If nothing worked, Levi could only resort to the suggestion raised by the Shield expert—to preserve Forlevia’s consciousness and give up on her body.

However, Levi have no desire to choose that route of action.

He would feel guilty forever.

For the remaining period of time, Idrae’s plan to create more Deities for Xyperia progressed even more.

It became even more efficient.

Apart from that, the powerful Xyperia had also started developing Rank One and Rank Two restricted areas in the nation.

As for Rank Three restricted areas, they had developed so many that they lost count.

For the time being, their resources were plentiful.

There was no need for them to even think about snatching Levi’s resources away, for their own resources were more than enough.

While Idrae’s Deity plan continued, the number of Deities in Xyperia increased constantly as well.

No one knew what the exact number was, except for the fact that it was increasing daily to a terrifying extent.

Furthermore, Apocalypse, which Xyperia had its eyes on, did not make any moves.

It was as if all the Deities in Apocalypse had vanished into thin air. They did not show up after that day.

Not to mention there were no indications that Apocalypse was searching for resources.

It was as if Levi had not told them the secret to finding the resources.

Everyone started to suspect that they were keeping other secrets.

Xyperia kept monitoring them but did not discover anything abnormal.

Meanwhile, Hawen, which used to be so arrogant, had started keeping a low profile. Even their crown prince did not appear in public anymore.

The greatest change, however, was to be observed in Hydron.

After tricking Levi into giving them the resources, they became even more powerful, to the extent that they completely forgot about their plan to take revenge on Idrae.

Now, they were preoccupied with how they can become stronger and be on par with the top forces.

In fact, they see nothing wrong with giving up their revenge plan. To them, taking revenge was nothing but an excuse to make the organization even more powerful

Within that short period of time, their numbers had increased to two hundred thousand.

There were already a hundred and seventy Deities amongst them, and the number just kept increasing.

They even established a lot of rules and regulations, as if they had become a nation.

It was obvious that the organization was trying to gain profits for themselves.

Soon, they even stopped trying to assassinate people from Idrae.

Ever since Hydron was established, they had never killed a single person from Idrae.

On the other hand, Levi had already killed twenty.

Despite so, they continued blaming Levi for not daring to take revenge on Idrae and criticized him for being a coward.

As for Zarain, they were so low-profile that no one mentioned them anymore.

There were many Deities who wanted to ravage Zarain, but they all disappeared the moment they reached there.

No one knew what happened.

Erudia probably changed the most.

After obtaining Levi’s resources and gaining Chad’s help, Deities just kept appearing one after the other.

Many of Levi’s old acquaintances went from test subjects to fully-fledged Deities.

After Zoey and the rest became Deities, the first thing they did was rush over to treat Forlevia.

They wanted to use their powerful spiritual energy to eliminate the toxins, but Forlevia ended up having a relapse.

Luckily, Levi was present. Since he was right beside her, he was able to suppress Forlevia’s poison. Otherwise, she would have died.

Of course, Levi scolded them harshly afterward and reminded them that ‘Deity’ was just a title—it did not mean that they are actual gods.

Now, all those Deities were thinking that they were invincible gods.

They believed that they could solve all problems with their power.

However, Deities were only those who had absorbed a certain amount of spiritual energy.

As the spiritual energy enveloped them like a halo, people call them ‘Deities.’

Although they were powerful, they were not invincible.

Nonetheless, Levi was still glad that Erudia could become stronger.

This way, the nation could protect itself in times when he could not be there.

That being said, it was still impossible that those Deities could treat Forlevia.

 

Chapter 3032 The Ultimate Parasite

Meanwhile, Troy and the rest were still working on their mission—to find the Ecclesiastic Order.

However, they still could not find any clues.

It was as if the Ecclesiastic Order had never appeared.

Nonetheless, Levi believed that those people he saw at the South Pole belonged to the Ecclesiastic Order.

Evidently, they had been attracted by the spiritual energy.

Levi guessed that they used to live in an environment with a lot of spiritual energy. But, when there was a critical lack of spiritual energy in the world, it was no longer suitable for them to continue living there.

Now that there was enough spiritual energy, they decided to come out again.

Levi’s guess was right. Many from the Ecclesiastic Order had emerged to look for magical herbs and spiritual stones all over the world.

However, as they had items that could conceal their aura, Troy would not be able to discover them even if they met.

The only exception was if they had physical contact.

This was something Levi had not thought about at all.

Although he had taught Troy and the others how to recognize people from the Ecclesiastic Order, the members deliberately masked their auras.

Since they were now no different from other ordinary people, no one could detect them.

Meanwhile, Dr. Erebus found a lot of dark magic methods.

However, Levi insisted on testing out the initial stages of the treatments on himself first.

He first took some poison that was harmless to him. Then, he used those dark magic methods to cure the poison to investigate the outcome and potential side effects.

Just like that, he spent each day experimenting.

Still, he could not find any treatment that could actually cure Forlevia.

Instead, those treatments all came with negative side effects.

Luckily, since they were all tested on Levi first, he could nullify those side effects himself.

Once, Rodunst found a treatment that might be effective for Forlevia, just that its side effects were too terrifying.

The body would rot, leaving behind nothing but a puddle of flesh and blood.

This just meant that Forlevia would go from a horrible situation to a harrowing one.

The outcome was the same—she would die either way.

Dr. Erebus found another dark magic treatment after that. It could cure the poison, but Forlevia would have to turn into a puppet without any consciousness and thoughts.

Obviously, Levi could not accept that either.

If that was the case, the Shield expert’s suggestion would be better. At least, it would preserve Forlevia’s consciousness.

It would be similar to being turned into pure energy beings like the Black family.

Although their bodies were not theirs, their consciousness still remained.

However, being a puppet meant that Forlevia’s body would still remain, but she would have lost her consciousness.

Levi could not accept both treatments.

He just wanted a healthier Forlevia or a method that would not have such horrifying side effects.

Each of them continued focusing on their tasks.

Eventually, their efforts paid off. Venom Fiend found a treatment.

There was a traitor from Marsingfill in Erudia who eventually became Parasite King.

Parasites in Marsingfill were usually used to cure diseases and rarely were they used to harm others.

However, Parasite King had been developing all sorts of parasites since young to harm others.

He had done all sorts of heinous crimes, including using live subjects to create parasites.

Rumors had it that he had used tens of thousands of people to create those parasites.

That was why he was known as the traitor of Marsingfill.

Furthermore, Parasite King had been developing the Ultimate Parasite, which was capable of thriving in poisons.

The Ultimate Parasite, which had devoured countless poisons and parasites, had been cultivated by Parasite King for decades.

Now, the creature had become immensely powerful.

Because of that, Venom Fiend thought that they could use the Ultimate Parasite to deal with the poison within Forlevia.

The Ultimate Parasite was capable of consuming all sorts of poisons, after all. As it liked stronger poisons, it would consume them even more aggressively.

The parasite had already been cultivated using human blood, so now, it was merely absorbing all sorts of poisons as nutrients.

Parasite King was searching for poisons around the world frantically as well.

After the spiritual energy revival, a lot of poisonous magical herbs emerged.

Hence, Parasite King was able to collect a lot of them.

“The poison within Forlevia is probably what the Ultimate Parasite likes the most, so it’ll be able to consume the poison easily!”

After hearing that, Levi jumped to his feet excitedly.

 

Chapter 3033 Aggressive Conquest

In the past, Levi and Dr. Erebus had thought about fighting poison with poison.

However, Forlevia’s poison was so strong that there were no other poisons that were on par with it.

Back in Hawen, a wizard had tried to use a parasite to absorb Forlevia’s poison.

But Forlevia’s poison was so strong that it killed the wizard’s parasite instead.

Upon hearing how the Ultimate Parasite existed solely for consuming poison, Levi was naturally interested.

Furthermore, he figured that if the Ultimate Parasite consumed Forlevia’s poison, it would leave afterward since Forlevia would be of no use for it anymore. This meant that she would not suffer from any side effects.

With that, her poison would be cured.

“We mustn’t alert anyone about this! There are so many people targeting Evie that many will try to stop us if they knew we’ve found a treatment. Besides, I’ve just killed so many people from Idrae. They’ll definitely grab the opportunity to take revenge! Once they learn about this, they’ll go to all lengths just to sabotage our plans,” warned Levi.

Hence, Dr. Erebus and the rest acted silently so no one would know what Levi’s next step was.

“Find out where Parasite King is now. No matter the price, we must make him cure Forlevia!” instructed Levi coldly.

As Chad had his own grievances, he was not afraid of dying.

However, Levi did not believe that other people would be equally unmoved.

If tempting them failed, he would resort to violence and kill them.

He figured that with their lives on the line, they would definitely be convinced.

“Understood!”

With that, Venom Fiend and the rest went to look for Parasite King.

This time, Levi wanted them to act faster.

Other than Idrae, he was wary about the mysterious force that was controlling Chad.

They were much faster, so Levi would be at a disadvantage if he was slightly behind.

If they were to get a step ahead of him, he would go mad.

In the depths of a large mountain in Marsingfill, everything was growing haphazardly after the spiritual energy revival.

There were a lot of poisonous organisms, such as mutated centipedes and all sorts of poisonous plants.

There were even some toxins that had never been seen before.

This was a natural restricted area that became even more terrifying after the spiritual energy revival.

It was the most dangerous restricted area amongst the rest.

Although everything looked vibrant on the surface, they were all poisonous.

Barely anyone dared to venture into it.

However, the Poison King’s base was there. After all, the safest place for a base would be one that no one dared to barge in.

Because of this, Parasite King’s enemies had no choice but to turn a blind eye to him.

Since his area had become a restricted area, no one dared to look for him.

After the spiritual energy revival, all sorts of poisonous organisms started to grow. Parasite King was glad because he could cultivate even more dangerous parasites.

In his opinion, those mutated organisms were just like the spiritual energy crystal that everyone was yearning for.

Recently, Parasite King had been sending his apprentices out to capture humans so that he could use them to cultivate more venomous parasites.

After the spiritual energy revival, the entire world was in chaos, including Erudia.

There was no one leading the country and none of them was capable enough to do that.

Everyone was filled with spite and frustration.

It was now an era of aggressive conquest, where only the strongest could survive.

After searching for a while, Venom Fiend finally found Parasite King’s base.

However, at that moment, many of Erudia’s hidden forces were gathering in the surroundings and planning to attack Parasite King in the name of righteousness.

That being said, their main motivation was to get their hands on Parasite King’s treasures.

One of the said treasures they were aiming for was the Ultimate Parasite that he had cultivated.

The reason being anyone that was able to claim it would possess a terrifying creature at their beck and call.

Besides, Parasite King had a lot of other venomous parasites.

If they got their hands on everything, they could profit a lot.

Furthermore, they heard that the Rank One restricted area that Parasite King was in was not dangerous at all. There were just a lot of poisonous organisms, but Parasite King had already kept them under control.

Apart from that, there were loads of spiritual energy crystals and magical herbs waiting for them to exploit.

Plus, taking down Parasite King would be equivalent to conquering a Rank One restricted area.

Naturally, everyone wanted to give it a shot.

 

Chapter 3034 Heavenly League

Rank One restricted areas were usually horrifying places, where the beasts inside were scarier than Deities and they came in large quantities.

It was not an easy task to explore those areas.

However, the Rank One restricted area with Parasite King was filled with only poisonous organisms, which could be controlled.

This was a rare opportunity.

As such, various forces, including the Black Sky Union and many others, had gathered together to attack Parasite King.

They claimed that they were acting in the name of righteousness—to eliminate a public threat and seek justice for the victims.

Furthermore, they promised to save those people who had been captured to cultivate the venomous parasites.

However, in reality, they were just doing it for themselves.

Parasite King was not the first target that they had joined forces to attack.

Previously, they had already defeated multiple formidable opponents by using the same excuse.

Erudia was in utter chaos, with killings happening in every corner. Hence, it was normal for such battles to occur.

For the sake of a single spiritual energy crystal, countless people were killed to the point that the blood flowed like a river. It seemed that there was no end to the innocent lives being lost.

The most critical point was that all of those forces, who killed without batting an eyelid, were all claiming to act in the name of righteousness.

In reality, they did not care for Erudia at all.

They only appeared because there was a lot of spiritual energy due to the spiritual energy revival. Furthermore, since the magical herbs were in abundance as well, they were eager to get into action.

Should Erudia be in danger, none of them would show up. In fact, they would probably even pretend to be dead.

Regardless of who ruled over Erudia, it was of no concern to them.

They were indifferent to everything because they only cared about their own interests.

This was the same for Brianna and the Black Sky Union, whom Levi had met earlier.

So many people had died in their hands just for the sake of profits.

They were all devils.

Now, a total of eleven forces were prepared to attack Parasite King.

However, they were still afraid that they would not succeed.

As such, they sent a message to The Cardinal Hall, requesting them to dispatch some men over to eliminate the evil Parasite King.

They calculated that after the spiritual energy revival, seven hundred and thirty-eight people had been captured to cultivate the parasites, and more than four hundred people were killed.

After receiving the name list and request, The Cardinal Hall had no choice but to send some men over.

Since there were quite a few Deities being added recently, it was better for them to gain experience on an actual battlefield.

As an added bonus, they could also eliminate Parasite King.

In fact, The Cardinal Hall already had such a plan from the start.

It was just that Erudia was facing too many internal and external struggles that they were unable to solve those internal problems for a long time.

Now that they had more Deities, Daxon was already planning to address those problems.

Coincidentally, those forces collectively requested The Cardinal Hall to send some people over to attack Parasite King.

With this as a start, The Cardinal Hall could proceed with their massive plan to eliminate all of their internal problems.

Besides, they were now capable enough to do so.

With Levi’s abundant resources and the Miracle doctor’s terrifying skills, the number of Deities in Erudia increased dramatically to the hundreds.

Even Daxon himself had become a Deity as well.

They assembled all the Deities into a team called the Heavenly League, with the members being called the Heavenly Guard.

This time, they dispatched twenty-eight Heavenly Guards.

Malcom and Maxwell were tasked with leading the team as they had become Deities earlier and were more powerful.

If they collaborated with the other forces, they would be strong enough to defeat Parasite King.

As this was the Heavenly League’s first battle, it created a huge commotion in Erudia.

But, the people were even more excited by the fact that Parasite King’s base was located in a Rank One restricted area, which could be used to exploit resources.

After locating Parasite King, Venom Fiend immediately went to look for Levi, who was in a chat with Azure Dragon and the rest.

Due to their talents, they were all selected to become Deities and had been recruited to the Heavenly League.

The Heavenly League had just informed them about their mission, which prompted them to leave before Venom Fiend’s arrival.

“We’ve found him, Master!” reported Venom Fiend.

“Good! We’ll head there right away!”

Carrying Forlevia on his back, Levi quickly left with Dr. Erebus and the rest.

 

Chapter 3035 A Misunderstanding

Soon, they arrived at the mountains of Marsingfill.

“Parasite King is really ruthless. He killed so many people and used live subjects to cultivate parasites! How cruel!”

“He’s willing to go to all lengths possible to create the Ultimate Parasite!”

After researching Parasite King’s recent acts of atrocity, Dr. Erebus and the others could not help but curse out loud.

On the other hand, Levi remained silent while his expression remained cold throughout.

Soon, everyone arrived at the destination.

“Huh?”

They were stunned by what they saw.

What’s going on? Why are there so many people gathered outside Parasite King’s base? There are at least thousands of people here, and they’re all elites!

“The Black Sky Union?”

Levi spotted a few familiar faces from the Black Sky Union in the crowd.

Even that unique-looking burly man was there too, pulling along a mutated wolf on a leash.

As Levi scanned the crowd, he realized that many people were accompanied by beasts.

Looks like a lot of people were already starting to tame these mutated beasts after the spiritual energy revival. But wait… what are they doing here? Why are there so many forces gathered here?

“Huh? When I came earlier, no one was here! Why are there so many people all of a sudden?”

Venom Fiend was surprised too.

“It seems like this has something to do with Parasite King,” guessed Dr. Erebus, confused.

Even Levi started to feel anxious.

If news spread that they were planning to use Parasite King’s Ultimate Parasite to cure Forlevia, then he would have arrived too late.

The plan might have been ruined already.

When Levi and the others appeared, the forces were not suspicious at all. They simply thought that Levi was here to attack Parasite King together.

Besides, as these forces only appeared because of the spiritual energy revival, they had never seen Levi before.

Hence, they did not recognize Levi and the rest.

“Huh? Boss, why are you here?” A surprised voice sounded.

The people from Heavenly League walked over, including Azure Dragon, Floyd, and the others.

They had received a mission from the Heavenly League to attack Parasite King.

They did not expect to bump into Levi and the others.

“Are you here to attack Parasite King too?” asked Kirin.

Levi and the others were stunned before realizing what was going on.

So, all these people are gathered here to attack Parasite King!

“What’s going on?” asked Levi.

Azure Dragon told Levi everything, which made the latter heave a sigh of relief.

Levi had thought that his opponents deliberately came here to sabotage his plan after realizing the existence of Parasite King.

Everything turned out to be a mere coincidence, however, as they were only there to attack Parasite King and eliminate social threats like him.

When Erudia had no Deities, they were bullied by outside forces and the nation almost got destroyed.

What made it worse was that apart from the outside forces attacking, Erudia was having internal strife too.

Chaos and mayhem arose when so many hidden forces appeared out of nowhere.

Luckily, these forces were not that powerful in this age where Deities roamed the earth.

They were like the ancient Garrison clan—they only existed in areas with more spiritual energy.

It was similar to the Restricted Area 76 which Levi had destroyed. Their resource was actually just spiritual energy.

And because this spiritual energy only existed in places where they lived, they rarely ventured out.

However, since there was a lot more spiritual energy outside after the spiritual energy revival, they all emerged.

Each of them became a scourge for Erudia.

Since The Cardinal Hall and the rest were not capable enough to oppose them, they had no choice but to watch helplessly.

Now, they had finally created Deities and established the Heavenly League to solve these problems.

Dr. Erebus and the others also heaved a sigh of relief. They thought they were a step too slow, but everything turned out to be a misunderstanding.

Luckily, we made it in time! This is just a false alarm. We thought that the mysterious force was so omniscient that regardless of our plan, they could still guess our next step and stop us in time!

 

Chapter 3036 He Must Not Die Yet

Dr. Erebus and the others were beyond relieved that their guess was wrong.

After all, the four of them were the only ones who knew about this.

As powerful as the mysterious force was, installing tracking devices on Levi’s body was still beyond them.

They were glad that nothing went wrong, but frowns soon appeared on their faces as they came across another problem.

Under normal circumstances, they would have all agreed to eradicate Parasite King.

He was so evil that everyone had a burning hatred for him.

Although Dr. Erebus had conducted more experiments than he did, a majority of those experiments were conducted on corpses or other living beings.

Very rarely did Dr. Erebus ever experiment on live humans, so what he did was considered child’s play when compared to Parasite King.

In fact, even Dr. Erebus wanted to kill Parasite King very badly.

Most of Parasite King’s venomous parasites were refined through the use of babies.

The parasite would grow within the baby’s body and eventually consume it upon maturation.

The fact that such a sinister form of sorcery existed disgusted everyone to the core.

However, they couldn’t kill Parasite King just yet because Levi needed him to cure Forlevia.

While they all agreed that Parasite King absolutely had to be killed, his death would have to wait until after Forlevia was cured of her poisoning.

Even so, there was still the risk of someone else getting to Parasite King first.

They would have no way of curing Forlevia if both Parasite King and his Ultimate Parasite were killed.

Azure Dragon and his men realized something was amiss when they saw the strange looks on their faces.

“What are you doing here, Boss? Are you here for Parasite King too?” he asked.

Before Levi could even reply, the forces from the Black Sky Union shouted, “The men from Heavenly League have arrived! Let us commence the operation!”

Malcom and Maxwell turned around as they retrieved their black seals in hand.

The black seal was used to give Heavenly Orders and was capable of mobilizing every single Heavenly Guard.

“Move out, Heavenly Guards! We must eliminate Parasite King today! You are authorized to kill any and all who stand in your way!”

“Yes, sir!” the Heavenly Guards shouted in unison.

The other forces present at the scene, too, shouted in response, “Death to Parasite King!”

Determined to completely destroy Parasite King, they were ready to mobilize all of their men.

Azure Dragon and his men then ignored Levi as they moved to the frontlines and prepared to attack.

“Three… Two… One… Attack!”

Right as they were about to charge forward, a figure appeared in front of them and blocked their path.

“No! You mustn’t kill him!”

That person was none other than Levi himself.

Parasite King needs to die, but now isn’t the time! I still need Parasite King to cure Evie, so I can’t let him die just yet! I have to stop them from killing him!

After having their assault stopped by Levi and hearing those words of his, everyone lost their minds.

They were all staring at Levi in shock and disbelief as thoughts started to run wild in their minds.

What? He wants to stop us from killing that heartless monster? Everyone in the country wants Parasite King dead, so why would he stop us? Is he on Parasite King’s side?

Floyd and Azure Dragon, too, were stunned by Levi’s actions.

Just moments ago, they were wondering why Levi would show up here.

Did he come here just to stop us? Why would he do such a thing?

“Levi, do you have any idea what you’re doing?” Maxwell shouted angrily.

He couldn’t bring himself to believe that Levi had actually come to stop them.

“I do! Look, Parasite King cannot die just yet!” Levi replied.

An icy-cold glint appeared in Malcom’s eyes as he asked, “Levi, do you realize what you’re doing? Are you sure you want to side with Parasite King and defend him?”

 

Chapter 3037 Certain Death To Those Nearby

“I never said I was on his side, nor am I defending him! All I’m asking is for you guys to not kill him just yet!” Levi replied while glaring back at Malcom.

“Yeah! We still have some business to take care of with him. You guys can have your way with him once we’re done with it!” Dr. Erebus added.

They didn’t dare tell the crowd about their plan to have Parasite King cure Forlevia due to how despicable and risky it was.

“You are helping Parasite King if you stop us from killing him!”

“That’s right! Why would you guys stop us when we’re already gathered at the entrance!”

“Besides, what business do you have with a f*cking monster like him anyway?”

“If you insist on stopping us, you must provide us with a valid reason!”

Malcom, Maxwell, and the others shouted coldly.

Even Azure Dragon and Floyd found it hard to understand what Levi was doing.

What business could Levi possibly have with Parasite King?

“Levi, you are going against all of Erudia if you stop us!”

“Yeah! Do you have any idea how many people have died in there? Many more are still being tortured in there as we speak! How could you stop us from killing that scumbag?”

“There’s no telling how many more people could die in there if we wait any longer! We came here to save those people, and that’s exactly what we’re going to do!”

“If you try to stop us, you will be regarded as an accomplice of that evil b*stard! Are you sure you want to do this?”

Those people were eagerly claiming the moral high ground despite behaving like bloodthirsty savages.

All they really wanted was to split Parasite King’s treasures and dig up all the magical herbs in the Rank One restricted area, but their excuse was so justifiable that even Levi found it hard to argue against.

“Do you have any idea how hard it was for us all to gather here like this? How dare you stop us when we’re this close to ridding the world of that scumbag?”

“I don’t care what your reasons are! If you try to stop us, you will be regarded as an enemy of Erudia!”

Malcom, too, claimed the moral high ground and began pressuring Levi.

“You’d better reconsider your actions, Levi! If you choose to go against us, we will not hesitate to kill you before crushing Parasite King!”

Maxwell was already treating Levi like an enemy.

“Yeah! We will kill all who stand in our way!” everyone shouted in unison.

Right as a huge battle was about to unfold, Azure Dragon stepped forward with some of his men and shouted, “Wait! Calm down, everyone! Let me ask him something first!”

Azure Dragon then motioned at Malcom and Maxwell before turning toward Levi. “Boss, what business do you guys have with Parasite King? They’re not going to stop unless you explain yourselves!”

A hesitant look spread across Levi’s face when he heard that.

How could I possibly tell them the truth, though? Who would believe me if I said we’re going to have Parasite King cure Evie of her poisoning? Everyone knows just how terrifying that poison in Evie’s body is. There’s no telling how powerful Ultimate Parasite will become after it consumes that poison. Since my plan will end up making Parasite King stronger, there’s no way they’d agree to it! A majority of them would surely object to me saving Evie in this manner. While I have no reason to fear them as I could easily kill them all, this is hardly an appropriate reason to do so!

With that in mind, Levi said, “I can’t tell you the reason just yet.”

Those words had barely left his mouth when someone asked, “You’re not planning on having Parasite King cure your daughter, are you?”

Levi tensed up instantly.

What? They managed to figure it out?

Having heard that question, everyone began discussing the idea.

“I heard that Parasite King designed a parasite called ‘Ultimate Parasite’ ever since he learned this art. In fact, he’s still creating parasites to this day! They say Ultimate Parasite has become so powerful that death is certain for anyone who comes within a few hundred feet of it!”

 

Chapter 3038 One Last Boost

“Yeah! On top of that, Ultimate Parasite has matured to the point where blood from humans can no longer sustain it, so he needs to feed it with all sorts of deadly poisons!”

“The poison in your daughter’s body is Final Malice, isn’t it? I bet you must be planning on having Ultimate Parasite consume that poison after every other treatment method has failed! Isn’t that right, Levi?”

All eyes were on Levi as they questioned him.

The fact that Levi had stepped forward all of a sudden with Forlevia on his back made it obvious that he was planning on curing her.

Given how things had turned out, Levi had no choice but to admit it. “Yes, that’s right. I came looking for Parasite King because I want him to cure my daughter.”

“What?”

Azure Dragon and the others all had shocked expressions on their faces.

I can’t believe Levi has gotten so desperate that he’d consider treating her with such a sinister method! This is crazy!

“Have you lost your mind, Levi? How could you even think of treating your daughter like this? Legend has it that any living creature that gets close to Ultimate Parasite will die! What if you end up getting your daughter killed before you can even treat her?” Malcom exclaimed with a mocking smile.

“Heck, you might even make things worse for her! That’s Ultimate Parasite we’re talking about! It could easily consume your daughter whole! Besides, even if you do manage to cure her, aren’t you afraid of any side effects?” Maxwell, too, chimed in with a sarcastic grin.

Azure Dragon and the others kept quiet as they agreed with what the two said.

Unlike orthodox methods of treatment, these sinister methods carry huge risks. What Levi has in mind is incredibly inappropriate! Zoey and the others would surely stop him if they were here! This is simply far too risky!

“None of you have the right to interfere with how I handle my family’s affairs!”

Of course, Levi knew full well how risky it was.

Had the circumstances not been so dire, he wouldn’t have resorted to such desperate measures either.

“I’m going to head on in and have him cure my daughter. Once that is done, you guys can do whatever you like to him. You can even eat him alive for all I care! But, right now, I need him alive to cure my daughter! Until then, those who dare to lay a finger on him will be treated as my enemy, and I will not show them any mercy!” Levi continued coldly.

Since they had already figured out his plans, he decided to be open about his determination to see it through.

“We can understand your situation, but have you ever considered the fact that you’ll be helping Parasite King get stronger as a result?” said someone from the Black Sky Union.

“Huh? How would I be helping him?” Levi asked in confusion.

Everyone else, too, glanced at the person with puzzled looks on their faces.

“Think about it, you’re having Ultimate Parasite absorb the poison from your daughter’s body. Ultimate Parasite uses poison as its food source, so absorbing it will undoubtedly strengthen it in the process! That, in turn, will make Parasite King even stronger! To make matters worse, your daughter is poisoned with what’s known as the deadliest poison in existence! This could very well strengthen Ultimate Parasite to the maximum! How will we defeat Parasite King then? I don’t think we’d stand a chance even if we had ten times more men with us! Heck, even Deities wouldn’t be able to defeat him!”

Everyone fell silent after hearing that man’s explanation.

Even Levi didn’t think about that until then.

Ultimate Parasite would indeed become stronger after absorbing the poison in Forlevia’s body.

“Oh, that’s right! I heard that Ultimate Parasite is only a step away from reaching its peak strength! This parasite that Parasite King has raised is nearly fully matured!”

“You’d just be doing him a favor if you let it absorb your daughter’s poison! How will we destroy him if he becomes practically unbeatable? All of Erudia will suffer as we all become food for his venomous parasites!”

“Exactly! You’d just be lending him a hand if you let him treat your daughter!”

 

Chapter 3039 Heavenly Guards Attack

Everyone freaked out when they heard that.

Levi would simply be providing Ultimate Parasite the nudge it needed to fully mature.

Regardless of whether the creature could cure Forlevia or if she would be in any danger, Ultimate Parasite would definitely grow stronger after absorbing the poison in her body.

That would result in Parasite King becoming so powerful that no one could stop him, which was a very understandable reason for their concern.

Of course, they weren’t actually worried about what would happen to Erudia. They were just worried about not being able to defeat Parasite King and splitting his treasures.

In order to keep Parasite King from getting stronger, they had to stop Levi from providing him with Forlevia’s poison.

“This is nothing personal, Levi! It’s simply a fact that Parasite King will become stronger if he treats your daughter, and that’ll make him a threat to all of Erudia! You can’t just put an entire nation in danger because of your own selfish reasons! You’re practically sacrificing tons of innocent lives just so you can save your daughter!” Malcom protested.

“Exactly! Besides, there’s no guarantee that your daughter will get better anyway! Who knows, her condition might even worsen as a result!” Maxwell added.

“Yeah! We cannot allow you to strengthen Parasite King like this!”

“That’s right! You can’t stop us!”

“You’d better step aside or we’ll kill you too, Levi!”

The members of the Black Sky Union were all yelling at Levi, ready to attack at any moment.

Azure Dragon and his men, too, agreed with their statements.

Not only would Levi’s plan put Forlevia at risk, but it would also strengthen Parasite King in the process and make him a huge threat to Erudia! There’s no telling how many people would die because of it!

With that in mind, they kept quiet as they didn’t know what to say.

“The only reason I’m wasting my breath talking to you people instead of kicking all of your a*ses is because you’re Erudians. Some of you may be genuinely concerned about Erudia’s safety, but I know what most of you are really thinking. I can still kill Parasite King with ease even if Ultimate Parasite does end up maturing,” Levi said calmly.

Levi couldn’t care less about Parasite King as it would only take him one punch to kill him.

However, nobody believed Levi’s words at all.

“Oh, stop with that bullsh*t! Nobody knows how powerful he could become after Ultimate Parasite fully matures! How would you guarantee that you can take him on?”

“What if you fail to kill him? If he triumphs, all of Erudia will be doomed because of your selfishness!”

“You can’t guarantee anything!”

Nobody agreed to let Levi proceed with his plan.

“Listen up, Levi! As long as we’re around, you’re not going to treat your daughter with that parasite! Heavenly Guards, attack!” Malcom ordered the men into action with a Heavenly Order.

As the Deities had sworn absolute obedience to the Heavenly Order before joining the Heavenly League, they would have to obey any and all orders given to them.

“Charge, comrades! We will kill all who stand in our path!” the members of the Black Sky Union shouted as they, too, prepared to attack.

Azure Dragon and his men were faced with a huge dilemma.

It was incredibly difficult for them to choose between obeying the Heavenly Order and taking Levi’s side.

Right as they were all sweating nervously in hesitation, Levi shouted, “Azure Dragon, Kirin, Phoenix, White Tiger, Black Tortoise, Floyd… Stop them if you still have any respect for me!”

They nearly lost their minds when they heard that.

What? Levi is asking us to choose between him and Heavenly Order? This is way crazier than we expected!

Everyone else paused in their tracks and stared at Azure Dragon and the others, waiting for them to make their decision.

“What are you guys waiting for? Attack! All Heavenly Guards, I command you to attack at once!” Malcom shouted.

“Is it that hard of a choice to make? How dare you call yourselves Heavenly Guards if you can’t even make such a simple decision?” Maxwell added.

 

Chapter 3040 Standing With The Boss

“Where’s your loyalty, huh? What happened to that oath you all took? You’re all members of Heavenly League, so you have to obey any Heavenly Order given to you even if it costs you your lives!”

As Malcom and Maxwell continued yelling at them, everyone else waited for them to make their decision.

Azure Dragon and the others had conflicted looks on their faces.

As if being forced to make such a difficult choice wasn’t bad enough, having Malcom and Maxwell yelling at them like that only stressed them out even further.

“Argh! Screw it! Stop them!”

Suddenly, Azure Dragon, Kirin, and the others all turned around at the same time to face Malcom, Maxwell, and the thousands of people behind them.

“Those who dare pass us by are to be treated as enemies, and we will kill them all without mercy!”

“Yeah! No one’s getting past us!”

“Don’t worry, Boss! We’ve got you covered, so just go on in!” they shouted as they stood in a straight line in front of Malcom and Maxwell.

Feeling relieved that they were on his side, Levi quickly entered Parasite King’s lair with Dr. Erebus.

Azure Dragon and the others had smiles on their faces as they felt happy with their decision.

In the end, they had all chosen to take Levi’s side.

“How dare you go against a Heavenly Order? I’m going to tell everyone about your actions today and have you all kicked out of Heavenly League!”

“This is it! We’re done for!”

“None of us will stand a chance if Ultimate Parasite consumes Final Malice!”

“Just you wait… Erudia will soon become a living hell, and it’ll be all your fault!”

Regardless of what they said, Azure Dragon and the rest refused to budge.

“Attack! I want you all to… Actually, forget it…”

Malcom and Maxwell had wanted to attack at first, but they changed their minds when they saw that Azure Dragon had a lot of Deities on his side.

Fighting them would only result in heavy casualties for both parties, so all they could do was wait there and pray for the best.

The members of the Black Sky Union were extremely agitated as they feared they wouldn’t be able to split Parasite King’s treasures.

However, there was nothing they could do about it as Azure Dragon had too many Deities on his side.

Just like that, Levi and the others continued on into Parasite King’s lair.

They encountered so many poisonous organisms and ferocious beasts along the way that Venom Fiend’s eyes went wide with awe.

To him, those things were treasures that he liked even more than women.

However, the sight that greeted them shortly after was so gruesome and horrific that it got everyone’s anger boiling.

Countless live children and babies were being used to produce parasites, and their harrowing states were incredibly unsightly.

“What the f*ck? This is beyond inhumane!” Dr. Erebus cursed angrily.

Levi, too, was furious as seeing those children reminded him of Forlevia’s condition.

Forlevia has me to help treat her poisoning, but what about these kids? They can only suffer helplessly with no hope of salvation!

As the group carried on, they finally found the person they were looking for.

Parasite King and his disciples had already received word about their arrival, so they had thousands of men surround Levi’s group outside the area.

Hundreds of eyes were glaring intensely at Levi’s group at the same time.

Parasite King had laid out his parasites in preparation for a fight as he stood in the back.

“Please don’t get the wrong idea! We’re here to have Parasite King cure my daughter!” Levi shouted.

“So, you’re Levi, huh? Your daughter has been poisoned with Final Malice, am I right?” asked a terrifyingly skinny old man as he stepped forward.

His eyes lit up with excitement when he looked at Forlevia and exclaimed, “This truly is a powerful poison!”

All Ultimate Parasite needed was a powerful poison to fully mature, so it was normal for him to feel excited when the said poison had been delivered to his doorstep.

And here I was, wondering where I could find a poison powerful enough to feed Ultimate Parasite! The one in this girl’s body is perfect!

Naturally, Levi could see right through his intentions, but he said nothing about it for Forlevia’s sake.

“Come on, let’s get started with it!”

Levi wasted no time bringing Forlevia toward the man.
