World-saving Plan: The Only Savior-Chapter 794 - 554: Narui_2
Chapter 794: Chapter 554: Narui_2
"Ah... Ah!"
She let out two short cries of alarm and then hurriedly scrambled up from the ground.
However, this action was rather difficult for her to complete due to an injury to her ankle.
"Th-thank you... My name is Narui, I live here... Are you a soldier?"
Watching the girl’s movements, Zhang Xiaoman could naturally tell that she was injured, but her words had left him somewhat puzzled.
"Soldier? Why would you say that? Why do you think I’m a soldier?"
Zhang Xiaoman, being new to this planet, was unfamiliar with many situations here.
He had picked up on some information in the girl’s tone a moment ago.
The soldiers she mentioned seemed quite formidable and apparently could easily kill these monsters.
"Ah... You’re not a soldier?"
Narui sounded even more confused than he did.
"I saw you kill Savardo, so I thought you were a warrior with enhanced genes... I’m sorry for being presumptuous... Thank you for saving me..."
As she spoke, she glanced at the monster’s corpse next to her but quickly averted her gaze again.
The monster was truly frightening, with its crimson skin, a mouth without lips, and long thin limbs...
Even though its head had now been chopped off, just the sight of it was enough to send a shiver down her spine.
"Genetic Warrior? What is that? Is it a special profession only found within the military?"
Zhang Xiaoman asked again.
He was very curious about what the girl referred to as a Genetic Warrior.
After all, this was something he had never come across in Makula’s notes and was a new term he had encountered since arriving on this planet.
"Ge-Genetic Warrior... What is that...?"
Narui was even more baffled by his question.
A Genetic Warrior, isn’t that something every citizen of the Federation should know?
Even a three-year-old child should understand what a Genetic Warrior is.
She was perplexed as to why this man, who seemed very strong, was asking her such an odd question.
However, since he had just saved her and now had a question, although the question seemed a bit strange, she couldn’t simply ignore it.
Gathering her thoughts internally, Narui began to explain:
"A Genetic Warrior is a human who has undergone genetic modifications in the army, breaking through the body’s limits, and they are all very powerful... When I saw you kill that Savardo, I thought you were also a Genetic Warrior..."
"I see, so are Genetic Warriors only found in the army? How does one modify their genes to become a Genetic Warrior?"
Zhang Xiaoman pressed on with his questions.
Narui paused, and after thinking for a while, she spoke with some difficulty:
"Well, it’s not that one must be a soldier, some companies also cultivate Genetic Warriors... As for how to modify genes, I’m not sure about that, I only know it requires injection of a Genetic Potion, I don’t know the details... I’m sorry..."
The girl spoke hesitantly, and Zhang Xiaoman roughly understood the gist.
To put it bluntly, those so-called Genetic Warriors were enhanced Super Humans.
Their physical capabilities were much stronger than those of average humans, but how much stronger remained unknown.
At this thought, he couldn’t help but shake his head.
Frankly speaking, Zhang Xiaoman was quite interested in the Genetic Warriors mentioned by Narui.
It sounded like a project that involved modifying physical abilities.
Upon hearing about it, his first reaction was to find related information to see if it could be applied to the humans of Water Blue Star.
However, it seemed now he needed to inquire with others.
The girl seemed to be just an ordinary civilian and apparently didn’t know much about these specialized matters.
Meanwhile, after answering those questions, Narui kept stealthily observing him.
She was curious about what kind of person wouldn’t even know what a Genetic Warrior was.
But, to her confusion, he had clearly just killed a Savardo.
Although she had never seen a real Genetic Warrior, she reasoned that only such a person could possess the strength to achieve that feat, right?
As she pondered this, her gaze unintentionally drifted back to the monster’s corpse.
After being frightened once more by its appearance, she reluctantly withdrew her gaze.
Zhang Xiaoman observed all her little movements without saying anything, as he was pondering their next move.
However, at that moment, Narui seemed to have thought of something, suddenly covering her mouth with one hand, while glancing up at the moon in the sky.
The joy she had just felt from being rescued was quickly fading away, turning into a hint of horror.
"No, this is not good! I, we’ve all been infected..."
The girl’s face turned deathly pale, her heart feeling like a roller coaster ride, from Hell to Heaven, and back to Hell.
It was only now that she barely remembered something.
She hadn’t escaped life-threatening danger.
She was now exposed under the scarlet moonlight, and even if Savardo didn’t kill her, she wouldn’t live much longer, and might even turn into one of those hideous monsters in the end.
With this thought, her heart turned cold again.
She would rather be eaten than turn into something that was neither human nor ghost.
Zhang Xiaoman was alerted by her words and began to realize the gravity of the situation.
He wasn’t afraid of this kind of light, but the girl across from him was just an ordinary human.
Now that she was directly exposed to the light, she would probably start mutating soon.
As if to confirm his guess, Narui had just finished speaking when she suddenly began to vomit violently.
However, since she hadn’t eaten anything for a long time, she didn’t throw up anything.
Instead, her eyes began to show streaks of blood, looking quite eerie.
"I’m, I’m so sorry, it’s my fault... you were only trying to save me and... sob sob..."
While vomiting, Narui cried and didn’t forget to run to a shadowed place to avoid further exposure to the red moonlight.
Only now, hiding was useless.
She could feel the changes in her mind.
As the pain grew worse, there seemed to be terrifying whispers, almost driving her mad.
"Ah!!!"
Narui clutched her head and screamed, with blood streaks multiplying in her eyes.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaoman quickly summoned Jiu Jiu.
The little creature didn’t need his command and flew over to Narui immediately upon seeing her condition, floating in front of her.
A swirl of blue spiritual power unfolded, and Narui felt the world, which had been getting redder and redder, suddenly change.
Everything around her instantly turned from crimson to deep blue, with only two captivating eyes staring at her.
Accompanied by a strong dizziness, the discomfort in her body receded madly.
A moment later.
"Plop~"
The girl sat down on the ground, breathing heavily.
The near-death experience she had just endured was still vivid.
It felt as if the whole world was sinking into endless red, a thought that made her scalp tingle.
Fortunately, at the last moment, a strange blue light seemed to appear out of nowhere, dispelling the pervasive crimson.
The pain in her mind also dissipated, and a sense of cool relief surged from the depths of her consciousness.
"That blue light, what on earth was it?"
Narui immediately wondered.
"Jiu Jiu!!"
At that moment, Jiu Jiu suddenly cried out.
The little fellow flitted past her and then landed on Zhang Xiaoman’s shoulder, looking as if it wanted praise.
"What, what is this!?"
Narui’s attention was drawn by Jiu Jiu’s call, and she immediately noticed the little blue creature.
In that instant, she came to a realization.
Wasn’t that blue light that appeared in her mind just like the aura emitted by it?
"Could it be, it saved me...?"
Although Narui asked this question, she already had a faint idea of the answer.
