Chapter 460 Assimilation

The third level of the stone tower

Gree his daily inner Apprentice Billis was sitting inside a large wooden bucket in the room His expression isted and wicked as if he was silently enduring intense pain A pungent, unknown purple and black liquid filled the wooden bucket

Billis struggled to get up and greet Greem when he saw the adept enter However, Gree well?" Gree smoothly, Sir!" Billis endured the intense pain and replied with much difficulty, "I will definitely succeed in this assi robe draped over his shoulders and revealed his bony chest and pulsating tu apprentice, Billis wasn't particularly fit Still, it wasn't as if he was underweight and skinny either However, in the span of two to three days, he had lost a shocking twenty kilogra out The culprit for his terrible state was that parasitical tumor in his chest

Embedded in Billis' chest was a tu squir's head had firmly planted itself in Billis' chest Only a small portion of its body and abdominal sac remained on the outside

Billis' pain becaed closer to his heart

Greeress of their assihtened his body and advised Billis sole has come into contact with your heart Next, it will find a way to infest your heart and try its best to assiret this? If you regret it, I can still interrupt this process Otherwise, once this phase starts, obvious bug transformations will happen to your body in a short period of ti for you!"

"I know that my talent will never allow me to becoret this choice of h Billis' heart the rip the sides of the wooden bucket and howl in agony

He didn't screae mouthfuls of blood poured out of Billis'by the aans ht red blood was immediately absorbed by the purple liquid when they came into contact The blood was then directly sent into Billis' body through his skin The purple and black liquid started bubbling during this process, and an oddly fragrant smell filled the hidden rooside the sels, sweet and refreshing It was inspiring andat times, clear and crystalline at others, and even profound and reflective at certain moments Several beautiful sirens the size of a pal in unison

However, as they continued to sing, all their flesh started to rot and fall apart, turning into pools of purple-black fluid and joining the rest of the liquid in the bucket Only lonely skeletons ree creaking noises

At the sa suddenly turned into a hateful curse uttered with bloody tears A h the air before surging into Billis' body

Billis' grip continued to tighten Splinters started flying everywhere froed deep marks in the hardwood

Inside his body, the accursed Queen Bug was furiously devouring his heart Outside, the curse of the sirens was continually surging into hi his soul without stop

Billis dove into the purple-black liquid when the pain reached its li down the revolting material

The liquid in that bucket was fresh blood taken fro from the amount in the bucket, they had to have wholly drained ten sirens of their blood The sirens were a type of ical sea creature that could compare to human adepts Ten advanced apprentice-level sirens had cost Greeical crystals

The assi was a 's body needed to beco's soul needed to reside in Billis' soul successfully

The Queen Bug did not possess any ability to irow on her own However, when it infested Billis' body, it could becorowth That was a unique ed to their species!

However, the assimilation process itself was far too cruel and bloody If the host failed to endure through the entire thing, bothwould die

That hy Greem had no choice but to purchase the siren's blood to increase the success rate of the assimilation

Just like the Water of Life of the elves, siren's blood also possessed astounding regenerative properties However, this blood was already soaked in the hatred and curses of the sirens at their deathbeds That hy one had to endure the power of these curses when using the blood

The reason Greem chose Siren's Blood over the Water of Life was due to the clash of attributes Both the Queen Bug and Billis had the unique twin attributes of darkness and earth These were opposed to the Water of Life Consequently, Greem had no choice but to choose the siren's blood, even if there were potentially severe side-effects

Fortunately, getting rid of these curses would be an easy ed with the Queen Bug

The intense torture of both soul and body brought Billis to the edge of life He curled into a ball and soaked hi pain of having his heart eaten out

Red blood continued to pour out of his orifices before being transfused into his body with the siren's blood It was this cycling of his life force that ensured Billis wouldn't die of exhaustion during the assimilation process

Gree the entire process, carefully watching over every step of the assi with the Chip's x-ray vision, Billis' body was like a transparent sack Gree within

Gree He occasionally drew a small blood sample from the bucket to keep After this, he could analyze the secrets of the Queen Bug's assih the composition of Billis' blood
