Chapter 20: Blood, Turmoil, Killing
"Even though I know the captain is ridiculously strong, calling him a god is a bit too much," Lei Gang muttered doubtfully.
"Hah, that's just your shallow understanding," the parasite scoffed. "I suppose your captain simply doesn't want to bother proving himself to you. After all, you're just a weakling. Saying he's a god isn't an exaggeration. Of course, I can sense that he's still in his growth phase—nowhere near his peak."
"You're incredibly lucky. In human terms, all you need to do is hold on tight and wait for success to come your way."
The parasite didn't care about Lei Gang's doubts. Sooner or later, he would understand. After all, the parasite also wanted to latch onto Su Xiuyu's coattails through Lei Gang.
"Something's off outside," Lei Gang said suddenly.
"Be careful, Lei Gang. I don't want you dying right after I've parasitized you. I can smell blood."
Lei Gang knocked on Su Xiuyu's door. "Captain, something might have happened outside. Should we check it out?"
Su Xiuyu opened the door, glancing at Lei Gang and his now-normal-looking arm. It seemed he had gained control over the parasite.
"Since you can basically control it, take Kana with you. Let's go see what's happening."
The group soon arrived at a marketplace near the hotel where small vendors had set up their stalls. Most people had already fled. A few bystanders remained, warning others to leave.
"What's going on ahead?" Lei Gang asked.
