Chapter 566 Corruption and Erosion
After a fierce battle, in this plaza filled with the stench of decay, the insect demon opened a small opening in the area controlled by the corrupted creatures.
Of course, what they will face next are even more rotting corpses and beasts. Even though they are extremely strong in all aspects, facing enemies several times their size will still put them under considerable pressure.
Lin Tian decided to join the battle himself to relieve the pressure on the insect demons.
However, at that moment, he suddenly noticed a strange smell.
After acquiring the olfactory root organ, he mastered a special ability called "Scent Compatibility," which greatly enhances his sense of smell, giving him superhuman olfactory perception.
It was this sense of smell that allowed Lin Tian to detect a dangerous odor even as a large number of corrupted creatures were being killed.
The source of this odor was the pile of decaying biological corpses, a mixture of pus, blood, and rotten flesh, which made Lin Tian feel extremely uncomfortable.
Of course, if it were just discomfort, it wouldn't have attracted Lin Tian's attention, since he had smelled quite a few unpleasant things after awakening this ability.
However, the key point is that while the smell of these corpses made him uncomfortable, it also subtly gave off a sense of crisis.
Lin Tian suddenly looked at the insect demons stained with the pus and blood of the corrupted creatures and found that all the places on their bodies that had been stained with blood showed signs of decay.
However, the body's owner was completely unaware of this and did not feel a terrifying virus spreading through his body.
Only Lin Tian, who possesses the ability to see through things, could observe the erosion taking place beneath the pus and blood.
"This is....."
Lin Tian sensed something was wrong and immediately summoned a severely corrupted insect demon. He then took out a miasma powder from his system inventory and gave it to the insect demon.
Any product made by someone born in the Year of the Dog is guaranteed to be of high quality.
After taking the Poison Powder, the insect demon's injuries were finally relieved, and as the effects of the medicine gradually took hold, the corruption on his body gradually faded away.
Lin Tian finally understood why the goblins dared not attack these corrupted creatures. If such a powerful infectious virus existed, no matter how many goblins there were, they would not be able to conquer the road leading to Central.
Just as Lin Tian was pondering how to deal with it, the pile of decaying corpses in the distance began to make a soft rustling sound again.
Gulu~Gulu~
Amidst the mixing and recombination of flesh and blood, one by one, the rotting corpses and rotting beasts rose from the ground.
These new creatures are all made up of fragments of different corrupted creatures that fell to the ground.
And after the reorganization, they quickly set their sights on Lin Tian and his group, rushing towards them without regard for the consequences.
Although the number of these corrupted creatures was not as large after the reorganization, their swarming attack was still extremely troublesome.
Not to mention that many insect demons have already been corrupted. Under such circumstances, even if they can still suppress the corrupted creatures, the infection by that unknown corruption virus will still aggravate the degree of corruption.
Moreover, after Lin Tian joined the battlefield, he discovered that he was not completely immune to the corrupting virus and had to take the Miasma Powder to suppress it temporarily.
Clearly, this affected his killing efficiency. After looking at the bursting corrupted creatures, Lin Tian pondered for a while and decided to retreat first before making further plans.
He quickly gave the insect demons the order to retreat, and they immediately began to retreat.
However, relying on his strength, Lin Tian did not retreat immediately. He looked at the horde of corpses and immediately took out the human seed bag from his system space.
He activated the human seed bag to enlarge it, and then absorbed the rotting corpses.
This was only to capture a few to use as research samples, so Lin Tian intentionally controlled the amount he collected, only symbolically capturing a few.
After the subjugation was completed, the human seed bag fell into his hands. Just then, Lin Tian heard cursing coming from inside.
"Damn it! You brat, what are you stuffing in here again? Believe me or not, I'll smash your Buddha to pieces!"
Huang Mei's angry curses came from inside the bag. It was clear that this was not the first time Lin Tian had done this. This practice of using the human seed bag as a living storage space made Huang Mei, who was imprisoned inside, very angry.
However, Lin Tian ignored him. After all, Huang Mei was already a prisoner, and he didn't need to worry about Huang Mei's feelings when using the Human Seed Bag.
He wasn't worried that Huang Mei would damage the rotting corpses he had taken in, since Lin Tian had already taught him a lesson when he did it the previous times.
Looking back, the way that little bald head trembled as he was flicked by his own finger was really funny.
"Hey! Have you ever heard me? What are these filthy things? Did I give you permission to throw things in here?!"
Looking at the yellow eyebrows that seemed about to jump out of the bag, Lin Tian smiled contemptuously:
"Is it up to you whether you allow it or not? Besides, I'm just letting you have a few roommates because I see you're lonely..."
"I don't want to, you..."
"Okay, close the door."
"Speak," Lin Tian said, no longer listening to what Huang Mei had to say next, and simply closed the bag.
Back to camp.
............
After returning to the camp, Lin Tian ordered all the insect demons under his command that had been corrupted to burrow into the insect nest.
It would be a waste to feed every insect demon infected with the corruption virus a pill of miasma powder.
Lin Tian remembered that the Insect Nest seemed to have healing properties, so with a tentative mindset, he let the insect demons enter the Insect Nest for healing. If they could be cured directly, that would be the best outcome for him.
Indeed, the Insect Nest did not disappoint Lin Tian's expectations. Under the Insect Nest's healing, all the insect demons that had been corrupted and eroded were restored to health.
It seems that it will take some time before the corruption and erosion on these insect demons are completely removed. Seeing this, Lin Tian smiled.
Next up was the Corruption Virus, which left Lin Tian at a loss. After some thought, Lin Tian suddenly remembered that there was a Mage Association in Green Tree City.
In this world, mages are like learned sages; if you consult them, you might be able to learn some information about the corruption virus.
In this regard, Lin Tian was not blindly confident, thinking that he was much smarter than these natives. After all, they were the people who had lived in this world the longest, and they might know some things that he did not.
