Miss Justice is not motivated

Hold on...! Survival of the fittest. Bai Aina gritted her teeth. To ensure a swift reaction, her nerves, heightened to an almost hypersensitive level, allowed her to clearly feel the changes occurring in her body. Countless viscous, lava-like fluids rapidly grew and spread under her care, forming vines that broke through her skin and danced wildly in all directions.

If I find out who did this, I'll kill her mother! Bai Aina took a deep breath, and knowing that the situation was about right, she closed her eyes and entered an introspective mode, manipulating the cells of the perfect creature to launch a counterattack.

Previously, Baina had allowed the viruses to multiply within her body simply to provide sufficient samples for analysis. Now, with enough samples available, she has begun a backlash, unleashing a massive army of cells, numbering in the trillions, in a frenzied counterattack.

Immediately afterwards, several more crystal-like gelatinous substances burst forth from Baina's body, wrapping around the vines that originally resembled magma.

"I hate this feeling..." Her fingers dug deep into the ground. Because of the proliferation of Shoggoth in her body, Baina even experienced extremely strong auditory hallucinations. The sound of 'Tekeli-Li!' was playing wildly in her mind like a grotesque song. Even if she blocked her hearing, she could not stop this situation.

"Holy crap, I've never heard of Shoggoth having a third-rate singer in his repertoire. Is he trying to steal the position of the head of the mentally challenged court?" Even in this situation, Baina didn't forget to complain, and the cement in her palm was kneaded into a denser solid sphere.

Streams of gelatinous substance gushed out, coiling around the vines that were originally formed from magma. As Bai Aina's headache worsened due to the auditory hallucinations, the cells of the perfect creature gradually began to overwhelm the virus within her body.

At this time, there was no sign of any black substance being expelled from her body. Bai Aina's body didn't have that much metabolic waste, heavy metals, blood stasis, keratin plugs, sebum, blood clots, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, apoptotic cells, β-amyloid protein, TAU protein, etc. Perfect Bio's body is very healthy and doesn't have blackheads.

"I...I succeeded! I'm exhausted..." Bai Aina stood up, but her trembling legs made it hard to tell that she had any courage.

"Shoggoth entered my body... He devoured Shoggoth... He made Shoggoth a part of my body... My body can't go back to normal, it's too filthy." Baina couldn't help but want to cry. She used to be so pure and innocent, how could she be like this now?

Chapter Sixteen: Evil Path and Demons

"Hmm? It worked, Miss Latia." The clone of Beina, who was chatting with Latia, grinned and even made a sarcastic remark with interest. "The original body is really determined, even willing to eat Shoggoth."

Ladia's mouth dropped open. Having been a hunter of the evil god and his minions in Yharnam, she knew how hideous these things were, and she also knew that there were many perverted people in the Source Terminal. Legend had it that there were even perverted chosen ones in the Great Martial Source who enjoyed sexually assaulting Shoggoths. She never imagined that anyone in this world could have such an appetite for Shoggoths…

“Uh, you’ve got it wrong, this is necessary.” Bai Aina’s clone shrugged and explained casually. “Otherwise, the main body wouldn’t be able to develop the vaccine. I hope you can understand her; nobody likes to eat that kind of stuff.”

"No, some people do like to eat it. I've heard that, besides Deepsea Seafood Fried Rice, the specialties of the True Knowledge Chapter are White Worm Juice Drizzled on Shoggoths. I've heard that it looks like black ice cream topped with a layer of black cream, and it's a very popular byproduct. Some Gourmet Cell Enhancers really like this dessert."

"What the hell?! They should all apologize to the gourmet cells! They should apologize to the gourmet cells in their bodies!"

"But thank you so much, Miss Baina. It was definitely the right decision to come to you back then..." Thinking of this, Latia couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although she was quite strong and possessed multiple different enhancement systems, she was quite helpless when it came to detoxification.

"It's alright, even if you didn't come looking for me, I would still do it." Actually, Bai Aina was quite dissatisfied with this, because before she administered the antidote, a certain number of people had probably already ingested water contaminated with the virus, and the antidote... wouldn't work on those who had already begun to mutate, which meant there would still be casualties.

"I can't sleep tonight; I have to go out and suppress the rebellion." Bai Aina glanced at Latia, who also had no intention of sleeping. Instead, she took out her greatsword and began sharpening it.

Besides this, what Baina was most worried about was the whereabouts of Elizabeth's son. According to internal information, a Blackwatch captain had transferred the test subject to another location.

However, the specific information wasn't recorded in the database; it was relayed verbally. Furthermore, within Blackwatch's database, Baiana found a list of high-ranking personnel and saw a very familiar name…

Why is Starstalker a Blackwatch member?! Needless to say, he must be a Reincarnator... But is this guy the flag version, the Highclaw version, or some modified version I don't know about...? Baina didn't think in the normal way. In her opinion, she wouldn't be surprised even if Starstalker threw away his shield, took out the Lamp Ring, and shouted "Symphony of Authority".

Moreover, the person who transferred Elizabeth's son... happened to be Stuart, so he must have his own plans, probably due to the main quest.

"Forget it, I'll leave these troublesome things to the main body. I'll just slack off." Bai Aina's clone yawned and lazily stretched.

……

"What did you say?! You've lost control of the Mother Nest consciousness!?" Upon hearing this news, Zot was so angry he almost vomited blood. Then, as if remembering something, he observed a dazed pedestrian outside the window and came to the answer.

Someone released a new virus, and this new virus contains components of the Blacklight virus. Otherwise, Elizabeth wouldn't have been able to notice the existence of other infected entities in the Nest consciousness, yet be unable to control them.

"There's nothing we can do about it." Elizabeth couldn't help but feel disheartened. She had originally planned to rely on the Infected to take revenge on the Blackwatch, but now it seemed impossible. As the controller of the Hive's consciousness, she couldn't command the Infected, so what hope was there left for fighting the Blackwatch?

Even with ample time to prepare, her combat form was no match for the relentless missile barrage. Moreover, that form made her difficult to move, essentially turning her into a sitting duck.

"Calm down, I need to calm down." Zote, his eyebrows twitching, took a deep breath and looked at Elizabeth, saying each word clearly. "If you were also injected with this virus, could you control these infected individuals through the Mother Nest consciousness?"

"Of course." A gentle female voice rang out, and Mu Xishuang suddenly walked into the building. She carefully looked around and confirmed that Zote was not a mage skilled in constructing fortifications... otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to enter so easily.

"So it's you? The one who released the new virus?" Staring intently at Mu Xishuang, Zote felt a surge of displeasure and hostility. The displeasure stemmed from the mutual loathing between kindred spirits, and the hostility... came from the inferior's covetousness of the superior.

"That's right, it's me." She readily admitted it, since Mu Xishuang had only sent an avatar anyway. She said gently, "Furthermore, compared to drinking water contaminated with the virus directly, this vial of the original virus solution is more suitable. With it, you can control 99% of the infected individuals."

"How can you guarantee I can control the other infected?" As the host of the Blacklight virus, Elizabeth instinctively sensed the importance of this vial of the original solution to her. The Blacklight virus within her body was throbbing wildly, driving Elizabeth to find a way to seize it. With it, she could fight against Blackwatch.

"It's simple, because no one but you is suitable to be the main body of the Nest Consciousness." Mu Xishuang wasn't lying to her, because the position of the main body of the Nest Consciousness was originally vacant, and only a suitable host could take on the role after evolution. Elizabeth was originally the Nest Consciousness of the Blacklight Virus's mother, and as long as she was injected with the original fluid, she could naturally become the main body of the Nest Consciousness again.

"You don't need to misunderstand, and you don't need to be so nervous. I'm just here to deliver some things. Of course, the more interesting the fighting is, the better." Just as Zote wanted to push Elizabeth to the forefront to attract attention, Mu Xishuang wanted to hide deeper and become the final winner.

"Your plan... is quite well-thought-out." Zote snorted coldly, but had no intention of stopping her. After all, the fact that the other party was willing to spread the virus proved that her main quest would not conflict with his own.

“Actually, you don’t need to be so hostile towards me. After all, our goals overlap, and there’s no need for us to be enemies.” Compared to Zote, whose hostility was very obvious, Mu Xishuang’s demeanor and words were impeccable. Even Elizabeth, a Westerner, could feel the undeniable sincerity in her words.

"..." Silently taking the virus sample from Mu Xishuang's hand, Elizabeth injected it directly into her carotid artery without thinking.

“That’s right, that’s how it will be faster.” Whenever she encountered this situation, Mu Xishuang would always think of Plague Inc., and she would always think how convenient it would be if reality were like that game.

It seems hopeless for ten more chapters...

Chapter Seventeen: Project Orion

The setting of this world is not entirely the same as the original work. Some details will be automatically filled in after being 'realized'. For example, Raymond McMullen is not the only character in Gentex.

Dr. Connie, who appears as an evolved human in the second game, along with David Bernie, the proposer of Project Orion, Dr. Archer, the developer of the White Light vaccine, Dr. Kenig, and others, are all working in Gentex now, only their fates are different from those in the original story.

At this moment, Steve gathered these characters from the original story. He took out a vial of serum and said, "This is the original viral fluid extracted from the commoner. He is the perfect creation of the Blacklight virus. The ultimate evolutionary goal of all life forms on this earth, I hope that you all can use this vial of viral fluid as a blueprint to create super soldiers."

“Wait, Captain Rogers, I have a question.” David Bernie looked somewhat agitated, his trembling finger pointing at the virus stock solution. “Excuse me… how did you manage to extract the virus stock solution from the ‘outcasts’?”

As the perfect creation of the Blacklight virus, the Outcast was naturally the primary experimental subject of Project Crusade. During his 34 years of imprisonment, he killed five people by unknown means; it is uncertain whether they died from his antisocial behavior or from the virus. He had no external physical defects, and the Blacklight virus had no effect on him.

For years, Jantek had been determined to extract the viral fluid from the untouchables, but he had never succeeded. His bodily fluids themselves had nothing special about them; once extracted from his body, they would quickly lose their activity and coagulate, rendering them ineffective.

Moreover, extracting commoners for experiments was too dangerous, and the researchers couldn't even figure out how he killed them.

“No, no, no, that’s not what I did.” Steve shook his head, his gaze shifting to what was behind him. “Let me introduce you all to the person who extracted the virus stock solution… it’s this Dr. Anim Zola.”

Anim Zola was a well-dressed, round-framed, slightly retro-styled white man. He nodded slightly as a greeting.

"—" Although the doctors present noticed that something was wrong, they couldn't put their finger on it and could only nod numbly.

"Captain, is this enough?" In Zola's opinion, this action was completely unnecessary, as he was actually required to use his psychic abilities to brainwash these doctors from the Jantek Institute.

“Thank you for your help.” Steve nodded and continued, “Project Orion, that’s what I named it. Because a terrible disaster is about to strike New York, and for that, we need more—power.”

"These genetically mutated super soldiers will possess the special ability to detect non-human life forms and will be equipped with advanced technological weapons and armor. Humanity's weakness lies in its fragile body, a weakness that even with modifications, they cannot fully overcome." Steve clenched his fists unconsciously, the sound of his muscles contorting in pain. "For this, I need your help. Whether it's vaccines or weapons development, it's all necessary."

“From this day forward, Jantek will have access to more resources. The Blackwatch under my leadership will never treat you as expendable pawns as it has in the past. That would have been a foolish and unwise act. You are all humanity’s most precious treasure and deserve everyone’s respect, not to be purged.”

"From this day forward, Blackwatch will cease to exist. In its place will be the Nine-Headed Serpent, which will cut off one head and regenerate two more."

……

After finishing the important matters, Steve was finally able to have a talk with Zola. His first question was, "How's the parallel world teleportation device coming along?"

"As usual, large-scale teleportation is still not possible. The difficulty of teleportation varies from world to world, but the second teleportation can be conducted tomorrow." This wasn't the first time Zola had answered this kind of question. As one of the earliest Hydra members to operate with Steve in other parallel worlds, she was already very skilled at handling such professional matters.

After becoming a Reincarnator as the captain of Hydra, Steve Rogers decisively abandoned the small Earth. Instead, he led Hydra to conquer other story worlds. Using himself as a coordinate, Dr. Zola could follow him to other worlds through a parallel world teleportation device.

Extracting viral stock from the common people may seem difficult, but it wasn't difficult for Zola. He once created a mass-produced army of Thors using a single hair from Thor, so it wasn't difficult for a skilled genetic engineer like him.

“Really? In this situation… I’ll leave it to Frank.” After a moment of contemplation, Steve decided to make this comrade the second Hydra member to come to this world.

"Him? He is indeed a good choice. Moreover, we successfully equipped him with the prototype Extremis Armor, so I believe he should perform well in this mission." Zola nodded and went to adjust the parallel world teleportation device.

“Well then, it’s time to move out.” Steve didn’t change into the Blackwatch combat uniform, because Hydra’s combat uniforms had already been rapidly manufactured and distributed in batches. He was still wearing his military uniform; for him… ordinary combat uniforms were unnecessary. “Order two squads to be on standby, ready to suppress any potential virus outbreaks.”

“Understood!” Sabrina Galloway, the accountant transferred from Gentex, responded immediately upon hearing Steve’s words and made the arrangements.

……

Finally, night fell on New York. A tense atmosphere permeated the city, as people could be seen lying on the streets, groaning in pain, while the black-clad Watchmen in their new uniforms took them away and placed them under strict guard.

This is one of the signs of an outbreak; the modified virus will continuously alter their bodies, causing immense suffering in the process. The situation is still manageable in the city center, but it's becoming uncontrollable in some remote corners.

In the dark alleys, homeless people often kneel on the ground, emitting painful howls. As the renovation progresses, their eyes begin to lose focus, and their original hunger and discomfort quickly disappear.

However, this is not a sign of good fortune, but rather the beginning of despair. Due to the rapid mutation, their bodies often undergo extremely exaggerated bursting phenomena, resulting in limb loss, in order to adapt to their overly rapidly growing flesh.

And at that time... the real hell will overlap with the human world.

Chapter Eighteen: Calm

During the brief moment away from the room, Latia took out a syringe for testing viruses from her storage space and measured the tap water at two different times. She then successfully concluded that Baina had solved the water source problem.

Although successfully assimilating the Shoggoth virus and producing antibodies was a significant achievement, Baina was far from happy. To her, it was a hellish experience that she didn't want to recall.

"Huh? You're back?" After carefully sensing her presence, Latia confirmed that the returned Baiana was her true form, as her life force was incredibly vigorous. In her eyes, which possessed the power of spiritual vision, the gray-haired girl's blood energy soared straight into the sky, as exaggerated as a blazing red sun continuously erupting with flares.

"Yes, I'm back. I didn't find Elizabeth's son, but the water quality was indeed problematic, and I've resolved that." She lay down on the bed beside her. While she wasn't actually asleep, she felt...very tired, mentally exhausted.

"Would you like something to eat?" Bai Aina then noticed that Latia's originally long golden hair had been tied up at some point and then fell down her shoulders to her collarbone. It was a very casual hairstyle, but also very dangerous.

"Huh? Is that okay? I want to eat grilled meat, preferably juicy and in big chunks." Bai Aina swallowed and remembered, then added, "Lettuce will do as a side dish. I also want fish head soup, the kind with tofu, ginger, and scallions."

"Leave it to me. Although I've never done this before, I'll try my best." Latia smiled gently, looking every bit like a stay-at-home wife. Meanwhile, Baina, sprawled on the bed, looked like a good-for-nothing daughter.

"Latia, are you a paladin?" Perhaps because of the automatic scribe, Baina was particularly concerned about the attire and enhancements that resembled those of a clergyman.

“Yes, a long, long time ago… I also worshipped that god.” With a hint of sadness in her expression, Latia flipped the large steak over, smeared it with sauce, and sprinkled it with spices. “You’ve heard of Bloodborne, right? I was a member of the Healing Church there, but as the story progressed, I learned about many cruel things, and in the end… I even killed my own teacher with my own hands.”

Her emotions were truly rich; she could actually be so honest with someone she'd only known for a short time. Although Baina had some reservations, she was still very happy to have met someone like her.

Of course, it's also possible that Ladia was lying to herself, but such trivial matters don't matter. Anyway, Beina herself loves to lie, as long as nothing serious happens, it's fine.

"Miss Karami might think I'm a weirdo... but it doesn't matter." Latia placed the grilled meat on the table. Thanks to the seasoning, the meat was a beautiful golden color, and the oil sizzling from the high temperature released an enticing aroma.

Afterwards, Latia returned to the kitchen counter to continue cooking, while Baina began to deal with the roasted meat steak, which was as big as a washbasin.

“Garami…actually, I know you might not have this name.” Latia, who was simmering fish head soup, suddenly spoke up.

"Yes, I was just kidding." Bai Aina readily admitted it, took out a knife and fork, and cut the steak into countless squares. The ones that couldn't be cut into squares were eaten directly.

Ladia didn't seem to mind much, nodding frankly as well, "I'm well aware that it's indeed very difficult to trust someone you've just met in this kind of environment, but..."

But you're such a pushover. Baina shrugged; she didn't particularly dislike him, she just didn't hate people like that.

"The gods answered my prayers; they told me that you are a trustworthy person..."

*Snap*... Bai Aina's knife nearly sliced ​​the entire table in two. Her lips twitched slightly as she slowly murmured, "Is it... a revelation?"

"It's something similar, roughly based on this principle." After saying these words from the bottom of her heart, Latia felt much lighter. Despite having fought outside, her body, which had already transformed into a superhuman being, wasn't particularly tired.

"Well, we'll have to wait until they make their move." Bai Aina had considered hacking into the network, but there was a very troublesome cyber hacker in Blackwatch, and if she hacked into the network randomly, she would probably be caught.

Without any intelligence sources, Baina can only wait for the outbreak of infection to occur before she can put it out, and the timing is uncertain.

"I'll do whatever you say." Ladia, who wasn't very bright to begin with, felt that it wouldn't be a problem to hand over the main god to Baina, since she wasn't particularly familiar with this kind of thing anyway.

"You...you really trust me." Shaking her head and smiling bitterly, Bai Aina thought it would be more interesting if someone told her she was 'untrustworthy' at this moment.
