Chapter 210 The Phantasmal Parasitic Gu: Almost Unsolvable! (Please continue reading)

Lu Zheng was very surprised; how could Tang Wan'er have such a big grievance?

She even couldn't help but throw herself into his arms for comfort.

Logically speaking, even if she couldn't contact him, Tang Wan'er's identity would allow her to directly communicate with the Alliance officials, and the power she could mobilize would be considerable.

How could there be such a great injustice?

Lu Zheng reached out and wiped away the tears from the corners of Tang Wan'er's eyes, looking into her eyes as he said:

"What exactly happened? I'll take care of it for you."

Upon hearing this, Tang Wan'er felt as if she had found a pillar of support, and finally calmed down.

She took a deep breath, trying to break free from Lu Zheng's embrace, but unexpectedly, Lu Zheng's arms were holding her very tightly.

So she let Lu Zheng hold her and said:

"Xiao Hui, Xiao Can has disappeared. He was captured by an unknown creature or person."

"It's not just them; many people have gone missing from the safe zone in the past two days."

"I contacted officials and people I know to search together, but we still have no results."

"It's as if they've vanished into thin air."

“Some people have even reported seeing someone standing on the street and then disappearing in the blink of an eye.”

"The authorities now suspect that some kind of space-type ability user or monster is causing the trouble."

"The fate of the two little children is unknown, and I have no choice but to ask you for help."

"But I can't get in touch with you."

Lu Zheng ignored her last complaint and instead communicated with the person in charge of the mental domain and the safe zone.

The situation was roughly the same as what Tang Wan'er had described.

The number of missing persons has now reached 227.

Regardless of whether the killer is human or some other monster, one thing is certain: it is still committing crimes.

This safe zone has requested support from other safe zones to coordinate the pursuit.

But so far there have been no results.

The authorities are also planning to report this to the alliance meeting, and ultimately the request will be made to Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng lowered his head and kissed Tang Wan'er on the forehead.

"Don't worry, leave this to me. You get some rest, I'll go and scout around the area."

Tang Wan'er finally relaxed.

Lu Zheng is undoubtedly the strongest; once he makes a move, he cannot possibly fail.

This is what many people think.

Tang Wan'er thought so too.

"You must help me find them!"

Lu Zheng left Tang Wan'er's house and brought Tantai Huanyan and Tantai Xiaoyu with him.

Although they don't know what made this happen, Tantai Huanyan and Tantai Xiaoyu's telepathic abilities have both reached the sixth level. If the two of them use their abilities together, finding the target shouldn't be a problem.

The two women, working together, activated their abilities, their hearts resonating with the heavens and earth.

A few breaths later, they opened their eyes and said in unison:
"found it!"

A moment later, Lu Zheng looked at the people trapped by the spatial barrier and frowned.

There was indeed a human inside, but he was not wearing clothes. On his spine, a worm was tightly attached, as if the worm had become one with the person.

They can also be called insect people.

But this insectoid is different from the insectoid we've seen before.

The insectoids of the past were humanoid bodies created by the insectoid race.

This insect-man was originally a human, but he was parasitized by that insect and turned into this.

Its eyes were bloodshot, filled with a violent, bloodthirsty rage.

Since the trouble was caused by insects, it was likely not an isolated incident. Lu Zheng immediately contacted Wang Shengbang and others, ordering a thorough search of the entire safe zone below to check for any missing persons.

Sure enough, just a few minutes later, Wang Shengbang said in a deep voice:
"Across all the safe zones, more than 10,000 people are missing."

"Vice President Lu, what exactly did you discover?"

Lu Zheng directly sent the images of the insectoid beings he saw through his mental domain.

At the same time he said:

"I suspect this is a newly emerged monster from the pit, and I'll tentatively name it the Void Parasite Gu."

"This thing has the ability to become invisible. This ability is very powerful. It can become completely invisible, without sound, without image, without heat radiation, just a ball of energy."

"Once it becomes ethereal, it can directly pass through solid objects like walls; only spatial barriers can stop it."

"If someone is approached while they are asleep, even a very powerful superhuman has a high probability of being parasitized."

"These insects, once they parasitize humans, do only two things: either capture people as food, or use them as new parasites."

"With so many people missing now, I suspect the latter is very likely."

Upon hearing these words and seeing the images transmitted by Lu Zheng, Wang Shengbang was shocked.

The ability to become ethereal is almost invincible and undefendable.

Space-type ability users are extremely rare, and among those who have mastered spatial barriers, Wang Shengbang currently only knows of Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng alone cannot take care of everyone.

This is almost an unsolvable problem.

Aside from a few powerful superhumans, are all others just waiting to die?!

Wang Shengbang asked anxiously:

"Mr. Lu, do you have any ideas on how to stop their spread?"

After pondering for a moment, Lu Zheng shook his head.

"no way."

"The ability to become ethereal is almost unsolvable."

"Even if we eliminate all the parasites within the safe zone and completely seal it off, we can still enter and exit through the teleportation array."

"But as long as there are people moving around on the ground, they are at risk of being parasitized."

"After it becomes ethereal, it enters the teleportation zone and will also follow people into the safe zone."

"In the ethereal state, unless one possesses spatial abilities or extremely powerful mental perception, it is impossible to detect the existence of these parasites."

"However, the only thing that is certain is that this thing takes a long time to parasitize, otherwise it wouldn't capture people before parasitizing them."

"Starting today, everyone must gather in groups of at least ten people for activities."

"No one should be left alone. There should be two shifts at night, with at least five people keeping watch together."

"Another thing is to check the abilities of all the survivors to see if there are any superhumans who can target this parasite."

"I will try to visit each base to find out where those people who have been parasitized are."

"Otherwise, if a large-scale outbreak occurs and more than 10,000 parasites appear, it could lead to a fission-like infection, and the remaining people would probably not survive more than a month before they are all turned into parasites."

Wang Shengbang knew that Lu Zheng would never lie to him or exaggerate, because there was absolutely no need for it.

If he hadn't lacked ambition to become king or conqueror, he could have taken control of the situation at any time.

Therefore, he listened very carefully to every word Lu Zheng said.

But these contents, sentence by sentence, brought him to the brink of despair.

They thought that with a powerful figure like Lu Zheng establishing a safe zone, humanity could ignore the blizzard disaster, stay away from the insect plague, begin to reproduce, and recover its vitality.

Who knew that this almost unsolvable ethereal parasitic gu would suddenly appear again.

Even Lu Zheng was helpless!

"Okay, I understand. I'll issue the emergency notice right away."

"Vice President Lu, please get rid of those parasites as soon as possible, otherwise it may be too late."
