Once Human, Now a Parasite Chapter 694

Chapter 694

Five more days pa.s.sed and the vision, or more accurately, the vivid memories of the past became much more frequent, to the point that Arthur could barely rest.

The head-splitting pain would come out of nowhere and would last much longer, causing him to be bedded almost all day long with Lucy nursing him. Furthermore, he became more open to his wife though he still refused skins.h.i.+p but it's not like he could stop Lucy as he could barely move.

There was one more thing which was drastically changing and experiencing things a bit similar to Arthur, it's none other than his partner and blade, Makaze.

At first, it was calmer than water but a few days ago, it started intensely vibrating and damaging the inn's room, so Lucy had to relocate to a safer and more secluded hideout.

There were no black flames emanating from the dark blade but another, more dangerous thing sp.a.w.ned off of it. It was wind, pure wind energy which was sharp enough to cut everything in its way. There was lightning too, a bit of crimson lightning very similar to the one Arthur faced when he was attacked by the Celestial Tribulation, the very same Astrith can use.

"Are you feeling better?"

As she wiped the sweat off his forehead, Lucy leaned closer and checked his pulse before putting another blanket on him.

"I… I really don't know but I'm starting to know why this is happening."

"Oh, why?"

The parasite didn't answer his question and closed his eyes, preferring to rest. It's like there is some sort of barrier around his heart, rendering him unable to trust anyone, including this silver-haired woman, whom he ascertained she's his wife.

Maybe because the tragic memories of the past are still lingering in his mind or the fear of experiencing the betrayal again. Nevertheless, the current Arthur didn't want to get involved but it's a bit too late to think that.

Lucy, who was about to use her Yin body to cool his burning body, suddenly stood up and gazed at the dark ceiling of the cave. She unleashed her sense and immediately caught sight of numerous robots flying in the air.

She didn't attack them immediately as she knew there is an even stronger power behind them, moreover, it'll expose their locations. Opting for a safer way, she followed one of the robot squadrons and discovered that they were dragging the inhabitants of this planet away.

In just five to ten minutes, a blinding white light would envelop a city or a town and then everyone would disappear.

After seeing this process three times, Lucy hurried back to Arthur as she kind of guessed what the System wanted to do but, unfortunately, a few kilometers away from what her husband was, she was intercepted by a tall robot holding a lengthy metallic spear with a sharp black tip.

"Lucy MoonStar… Target confirmed. Proceeding to capture the target."

The robot spoke with an emotionless voice as its eyes shone with blue light. It grabbed its spear and pointed it at Lucy, who dashed at it and violently punched it using her devil arm.

A large amount of steam emanating from the specter covered the area and a devastating clash occurred when her fist clashed with the black tip of the spear.

Lucy managed to blow the robots thirty or so meters away but it quickly stabilized its body and jumped at her only to be frozen mid-air by nine blooming lotuses, which quickly spun around the woman.

Half of the forest was frozen in a split second and when the robot managed to break free, Lucy had already fled and retrieved Arthur, who woke up.

The parasite was confused but he readied himself when he saw Lucy's panicked expression. He stored the unstable Makaze and, once he left the cave, he transformed into a ma.s.sive and majestic azure dragon, which rose in the air with a terrifying speed.

Lucy stood atop the dragon and fired the silver revolver multiple times, shooting down countless robots which were charging at them.

At this point in time, they were already discovered so it was futile to use Stealth.

Arthur listened to Lucy's advice and charged high-up in the sky, wanting to leave this world before more reinforcements arrive.

Unfortunately, the Divine Beast b.u.mped into an invisible wall, which pushed it back and forced Arthur back to his human form. He unleashed a Heavenly Arrow infused with Void Magic at the unseen wall while Lucy shot a 2nd-grade bullet at it but the two attacks did no damage at all.

They floated in that sky for less than a minute but hundreds of robots circled them, leaving not even a tiny gap in between.

"Just why are they after us?"-Arthur

"..."-Lucy

Lucy activated her White Specter transformation, causing an illusory flaming white tail to appear, her two eyes were covered with white fire too. The devil arm scaled changed in colors, becoming grey and the steam became crimson.

"You're in no condition to fight. We'll have to create an opening and escape."

"How are we going to do that?"

Lucy smiled at him and replied, "Just blast everything."

After saying that, she flew high in the sky and let out her G.o.dspirit, which was an enormous ice lotus. The G.o.dspirit instantly bloomed and released an unstoppable wave of Yin, powerful enough to freeze all the nearby robots, albeit momentarily.

Arthur followed with a fire Rizaki and s.p.a.ce Magic. He broke the s.p.a.ce, making the enemies disoriented before the deafening fire explosion erupted, causing the sky to turn red and the h.e.l.l flames to cascade on the unmoving robots.

As they had no feeling of fear, the countless robots advanced forward and sacrificed each other to get close to their targets. The couple's attacks were truly strong and defeated more than a thousand robotos but even more came in their places.

"They're not attacking us…"

Lucy was perplexed by the robots' behavior but she had no time to contemplate things. Both she and Arthur chose a direction and charged at the ma.s.s of enemies.

The G.o.dspirit froze everything while she used the golden crow flames to scorch the metallic machines.

As the two were equipped with deadly attacks, it wasn't hard to break through the encirclement. Furthermore, the robots weren't individually strong, they just had a lot of numbers.

Sadly, the moment of relief lasted only for a split second as the couple heard an ear-splitting sound which made them fall from the sky and crash into the burning forest.

When they managed to get back to their senses, all the robots had stopped functioning and rained down from the sky but this wasn't the end.

Twenty seconds of silence pa.s.sed before Lucy and Arthur, who were thousands of kilometers away using Arthur's s.p.a.ce Magic, abruptly stopped and fell on the ground again.

Arthur was the first to be affected. He grabbed his throat and seemed to have trouble breathing, his energy was totally out of control and his health was decreasing rapidly.

Lucy felt the change fifteen seconds after him and, like him, her body limply fell on the ground and she couldn't breathe anymore.
