Chapter 141: The Pirates’ Home
As if knowing what Yuka was thinking, Nori continued, "I’ve seen your memories, there’s something called Spiritual Awareness, but I think it’s different from psychic power. Spiritual awareness is obviously more advanced, and we knew nothing about it so far."
Nori suddenly emphasized, "After Kenji was injected with the Queen’s cells, his psychic power grew with age, and now he has a powerful psychic power that can contend with the Queen. Think about it, the Queen has a massive body, then look at Kenji’s physique. His body can’t support such strong psychic power, that’s why he’s in pain. Without control, he will eventually burst and die."
"By my estimation, if he comes into close contact with the Queen’s extract twice more, you can prepare an urn for him." Nori stated the facts mercilessly.
Yuka’s face changed color.
"There’s only one thing that might save him," Nori told Yuka, "and that’s the Queen’s brain marrow. If you can get the Queen’s brain marrow, I might be able to extract some substance from it to treat Kenji’s illness. But I can’t guarantee you that it will certainly work. The medicine I research might turn Kenji completely into an insectoid, or it might kill him. The chance of cure is no more than 5%. Think about it carefully."
Before Yuka could speak, Kenji, lying on the bed, refused with a hoarse voice, "I disagree."
He had just woken up and heard Nori’s words. Struggling to sit up from the bed, he thanked Nori, then, facing Yuka’s worried eyes, said firmly, "You can’t risk yourself for my illness."
Nori snorted coldly, turned to Yuka, and said, "There are only two bottles of the pain relief medicine. Even if I could make a third, his body has developed resistance and it won’t work anymore. If not treated, he’s certain to die."
Yuka gripped Kenji’s hand tightly and firmly told Nori and Kenji, "I’m going to find the Queen’s brain marrow."
