Chapter 202 Parasitic Apocalypse 1
Chapter 202 Parasitic Apocalypse 1
"Hey, Ping, what are you still looking at?"
Jiang Ping reluctantly put down the broken mirror in his hand and answered the system.
"Can't I take a look?"
"Hehehehehehehehehehehehe, congratulations on getting the permanent Parasite Tattoo skin in the Small World, hahahahahaha!"
The original owner's name was Dong Youping, she was 172 cm tall, her hair was permed but couldn't be curled, straightened or pulled, and eventually shaved flat. She was a 32-year-old single mother with a five-year-old daughter named Dong Shale.
However, the girl's hair didn't get much better either.
Dong Shale often sighed about this.
I fantasize that I will have a handsome buzz cut someday.
See if she doesn't charm Ms. Zhang, the teacher of the senior class, so that Ms. Zhang will give her all the big red flowers.
However, Dong Shale's little wish could not be fulfilled.
half year ago.
The planet was suddenly enveloped in a gray fog.
The fog was so unusual that ordinary people couldn't even find their way out. The original owner simply asked the child to stay home from school and planned to wait until the fog cleared before sending him back to school, since there was plenty of food and drink at home anyway.
Little did they know that the insect eggs in the gray fog had already begun to parasitize humans.
People who are not chosen to be parasitized by the parasite eggs may be hospitalized due to respiratory diseases, and in severe cases, they may die directly.
Of course, many people were fortunate enough to survive.
It's just that I'll be dragging on with my illness.
The advantage is that the insect eggs avoid the surviving diseased organisms.
The dissipating smog doesn't completely disappear; it always returns once a year, as if to prevent too many fish from escaping from this planet.
There are three types of people who are successfully parasitized by the parasite eggs:
The first type, unable to gain control of their bodies, are used as food by parasite eggs, and eventually controlled by adult worms to walk, move, and feed. Humans call them insect people.
The insectoid can also fake saying simple phrases like "open the door," "baby," and "time to eat."
When they are starving, they become very aggressive, but their diet is in sync with that of humans.
You can't kill them all; killing them will only cause them to burst with pus, burning the living...
Researchers also pointed out that the study was abandoned after a period of time.
It turns out that some people deliberately used living people to raise insects because they saw that it was profitable, so the insect trappers and researchers became more discreet.
The second group is the largest; they are forced to live in symbiosis with parasites, constantly competing with the parasite eggs for nutrients. The first person to die suddenly in this process, along with the dead parasite eggs, became the subjects of laboratory research.
Those who survive must continue to fight the insect eggs until they hatch, and then see who wins. It is also possible that a stable symbiotic relationship will develop, where they not only have to feed themselves but also the insects inside their bodies.
The third type of people are quite strong. They successfully defeated the parasite eggs, took control, absorbed the nutrients from the eggs, improved their physical condition, and called themselves evolved beings.
However, there are countless small organizations and institutions both domestically and internationally that are not easily controlled.
There's also a small group that can take down newly hatched larvae; those are truly formidable, being advanced evolved beings.
I've never heard of the original owner who defeated the worm.
Social order was restored after the chaos.
After the authorities intervened, they provided definitive information.
The original owner and Dong Shale are currently both of the second type of stable symbiotic relationship.
It's hard to say whether it's good or bad.
After confirming their situation and registering with the community, the original owner had to travel to work and find food every day, while Dong Shale could only obediently commute with her biological mother.
But this peaceful period did not last long.
someday.
After get off work, the original owner was walking home with her daughter when she was injured by an evolved human from a newspaper. Parasites took advantage of her vulnerability and she became a parasite-human.
Dong Shale was sent to a welfare home but did not live for more than a few years.
The original owner's wish this time was to take revenge, and besides this evolved being, there were many other evolved beings as well.
We hope that those in charge of the task will provide more oversight.
See if they intentionally harm ordinary people. If they do, then kill them, just like they do when they harm others at will.
Finally, I just want to take good care of my daughter as she grows up.

"Mom, why aren't you sleeping again? You still have to walk to work before dawn."
Dong Shale rubbed her eyes and found her mother busy with something inexplicable. Could it be that she had finally broken down due to too much psychological pressure?
Sigh, I wonder if factories would hire a five-year-old girl.
Dong Youping held the person in his arms and sang a few off-key lines of the song, finally managing to lull the person to sleep.
Where's the calming incense? Use the calming incense.
Dong Shale is under too much stress; he probably hasn't slept well in the past six months.
The banyan tree hung a small incense burner inside the house.
The branches extended from the ground and easily reached the hidden gray mist. The taste was acceptable, but the insect eggs were not nutritious enough and could only be eaten as a snack.
They can also be improved and then deep-fried as a health supplement.
Dong Youping, who practices meditation, declined to comment on this.
The story explains that the gray fog, along with the insect eggs, was blown over by a high-level insect that sneezed while passing by, instantly breaking through the barrier and launching a powerful attack right up to the planet.
What's the difference between eating this stuff and eating someone else's snot?
Not being allowed to eat is not an option; they say that not eating would be a waste, since the extra planets can't be digested anyway.
Having a partner who's too good at managing a household is a sweet burden.
I was delighted to receive three eye rolls from the leader.
Why are there three white eyes? Of course, it's just for the occasion; it acquired a second-hand Zerg skin.
Your little hobby is quite unique, isn't it?
...
Little Dong Shale woke up as soon as it was light.
She saw her mother busy in the kitchen, and it smelled delicious, like the smell of expired sausages from home.
She quickly dressed herself, then went to the small sink to squeeze toothpaste and brush her teeth. She could only squeeze out a tiny bit because the price of toothpaste had gone up recently.
Even when washing my face, I would use a basin to collect the water before washing.
After you're done, put on a tiny bit of perfume.
hair...
"Mom, could you cut my hair?"
Dong Shale found the prickly, short hair rather annoying.
In the kitchen, her mother agreed, saying she would give her a haircut after get off work that day.
Besides getting haircuts, I also need to find a way to make money.
Do ordinary people have to become evolved beings to live a good life?
Forget it, I'll just finish today's shift first.
The original owner found a job through the community in a factory two stops away. Even so, she and Dong Shale had to queue for several days at the community entrance to secure it.
The company she used to work for went bankrupt after its boss turned into an insect.
After the official announcement, the original owner quickly made a decision and found a stable job that included meals and the ability to take care of the child.
Although the food was hard to swallow.
For ordinary people, survival should be the priority.
