Lana, the Body Modification Advanced Human, felt her whole body freeze the moment his voice thundered down.
She couldn't cycle her energy, nor could she move a single muscle.
In her nearly broken enclosure of ice, only her already raised head captured his figure as he descended and released countless bolts of purple lightning.
Lightning that chirped heavily and shone gloriously as Lana thought she was looking at a disaster of lightning crashing down!
And boy did it crash down.
Around her where dozens of Infected Humans were seeking to break her shields of ice.
Like simmering strikes of judgment, lightning crashed down as the bodies of Infected Humans were lit up purple, the strikes being so heavy and intense that by the time a second passed, glimmers of ash fell down.
The terrifying strikes of lightning turned those they touched to ash as many who were frozen still trembled in fear!
If even a single tendril had grazed their bodies, what would their fates have been?!
In this terror, they wanted to run.
But the formless pressure wrapping all around them made it impossible, the words of the man who unleashed endless strikes of lightning ringing out in their minds!
For those whose gazes were frozen up, they were able to see him along with his fantastical purple and gold wings make their descent until he arrived before the Infected Ethereal Physiology Master bounded by layers of earth.
Before his lighting, the earth broke apart as the Leucochloridium Worms within the body of the Ethereal Physiology Master churned, the segmented bodies within his Meridian churning faster and faster, but Achilles tapped out in the next moment as where his fingers touched, a blinding golden point of light bloomed.
A Miniature Sun III was called out as a point of immense brilliance and heat bloomed- blinding any eyes that wanted to see while also causing the Leucochloridium Worms within the Infected Ethereal Physiology Master to feel like they were being boiled alive!
A transparent crystal vine shot out into the body of the Ethereal Physiology Master at such a time as with a difficult and heavy expression…
Achilles called out as his eyes vibrated.
He told himself that this Infected Ethereal Physiology Master was already dead.
That the binding of the Leucochloridium Worms was irreversible!
That it was okay for him to assimilate it!
This was the ultimate truth, and yet it made none of this easier as, at this moment, the very body of the Infected Ethereal Physiology Master began to disperse while the Worms within screeched, and Achilles began obtaining scattered memories.
Of Leucochloridium Worms, yes, but not them alone.
He also gained scattered memories of the Host the Leucochloridium Wormsl occupied as his expression became that much harder.
And thereafter, he became even more decisive as he knew what had to be done even if it was a set of actions he would have never even imagined taking hours ago!
He looked across the floors of the Colony Bunker as Ecological Empathy III chased down all Infected Humans, his lightning precisely targetting them and turning them to ash as in a few seconds, tens of thousands of Infected Humans were purged!
From the ashes, barely formed Evolutius Crystals could be seen for the vast majority- these crystals being touched by residual lightning as they disappeared into a Crystal Vault IV silently.
Achilles looked at all of this as he began loosening Dragon's Haki, his voice ringing out resonantly as he shot to the skies.
"The threat of Worms here is gone, you can move freely once more!"
Many who felt like they couldn't even breathe became able to move again.
Achilles saw them all and their terrified expression, and he even heard the words of others with Ecological Empathy III!
"Brother…!" A young man stared at the ashes where his brother used to be, not knowing he was already Infected.
"Richard!" A woman cried out in horror as she stood over the ashes of her husband, where she had seen the glow of worms within him, but still…
Cries of relief and horror stretched out hand in hand as everyone in the Bunker looked around warily- half expecting those nearby to attack them but…nothing happened.
Achilles felt all of this as he shot up towards the skies, wrapping his arms around Rose and flying out of the Colony Bunker as he was not close to being done!
As he left, his expression changed slightly when he saw the gazes of the Hundreds of thousands of humans down below.
For some, after they were saved…after they had a close brush with death and he saved them…they raised their hands towards his direction as their faces showed unique expressions of thankfulness.
But there were also many more faces of shock and fear directed toward him as he flew away!
There was then the face of Luna.
Surrounded by burning moons she was not able to use, her gaze was…referential towards him that it made him uncomfortable, and he only spoke out while flying past her.
"I will chase and scorch the rest of the Leucochloridium Worms leading back to Catacomb Entrance #1- every last remnant has to die; otherwise, a never-ending nightmare will start!"
He and Rose were akin to a booming flash of lightning that flew past Luna while saying this, with Luna only nodding dumbly as Achilles fled out of the Colony Bunker.
His eyes were cold and searching as he immediately shot down the sides of the metallic bunker, his body shooting out hundreds of tendrils of lightning down the streets below, where many humans were still gathering as screams erupted.
Among the humans were those Infected who tried to remain low key, but they were like bright flames to him as he could lock onto them miles away thanks to the blessing of Ecological Empathy III that could easily sense Primordial Energy!
He didn't bother with explanations or reasons as to why as time was of the essence, so he could only fly above the dazzling city streets of Neon while releasing bursts of lightning that killed multiple Infected Humans- his direction leading him towards Catacomb Entrance #1!
