Infinite Disasters: I Hoarded My Way to Godhood novel Chapter 28

Chapter 28: Chapter 28: Swift Shadow, Taking Down the White Ghost

The man in the lead kicked the unconscious Summer Lynn, his voice exceptionally cold through his protective mask.

"I don’t know why people with these special powers have started appearing. But if we let the Parasitic Bloodworms infest them, then bring them under our Control, we might be able to create even more powerful and unique bio-weapons."

The blood in Seraphina Sullivan’s veins ran cold.

She finally understood their objective. They weren’t here to eliminate parasites at all. They were deliberately hunting Players, using them as incubators to cultivate new parasitic variants.

Suddenly, the Hound, White Ghost, grew agitated. It sniffed the air, and its blood-red eyes locked onto Seraphina’s hiding spot, a low whimper escaping its throat.

The armed personnel looked toward her hiding place.

"Looks like we’ve got a decent haul today. There’s another one over there!" one of them exclaimed, immediately turning his rifle.

Seraphina realized with a jolt that she’d been spotted.

’Damn it!’

’These official-looking types are clearly not the good guys.’

Harnessing the burst of power from her [Speed Enhancement] Skill, Seraphina instantly drew her two guns and opened fire on the men.

Her Sound Wave Vibration Gun and her handgun fired simultaneously.

In a flash, two men in protective suits were sent flying by the blast from the Sound Wave Vibration Gun.

The man holding White Ghost’s leash took a bullet to the head from Seraphina and dropped dead on the spot.

Amidst the chaos, the Hound, White Ghost, broke free from the Binding of its electronic collar and lunged at Seraphina like a phantom.

It looked even more horrifying in the sunlight. The Parasitic Bloodworms squirming beneath its skin were clearly visible, and the mucus dripping from its fangs caused corrosion on the ground with a SIZZLING sound.

"ROAR—!"

White Ghost’s speed was astounding; it was on her in the blink of an eye.

Seraphina decisively raised her Sound Wave Vibration Gun and fired.

"HUM!"

The shock wave sent White Ghost stumbling backward, but it merely shook its head, its blood-red eyes glowing with an even greater Frenzy.

However, its momentary stun gave Seraphina the opening she needed.

"BANG! BANG! BANG!"

Three bullets screamed through the air, but they only tore bloody holes in White Ghost’s shoulder and abdomen. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

The monster roared in agony, the pain only making its movements more savage.

"Tsk!" Seraphina swiftly retracted her pistol into her Space as Silver Needles coalesced in her palm, forming a slender Fencing Sword.

She took a deep breath and shot forward like an arrow released from its bow.

[Quick Sewing] Skill, full power!

The Silver Needle sword traced dozens of afterimages in the air as living Energy Silk Threads wrapped around White Ghost’s limbs.

Seraphina moved like a wraith, each thrust precisely piercing White Ghost’s joints, "sewing" it securely to the ground.

"AWOO—!" White Ghost thrashed wildly, but it could only rage in helplessness.

The Energy Silk Threads sliced through its flesh, and dark red blood sprayed from the wounds.

Giving it no chance to recover, Seraphina summoned a Chopping Axe from her Space, gripping the handle with both hands and raising it high—

"CRACK!"

The axe blade precisely severed its spine. White Ghost’s head rolled onto the ground, and after a few twitches, its body fell still.

The Parasitic Bloodworms swarmed from the severed neck, but dissolved into pus the instant they touched the sunlight.

[Ding! You have slain the parasitic variant: White Ghost!]

The system notification echoed in her mind, but Seraphina had no time to relax.

In the distance, the armed personnel who had been knocked down by the Sound Wave Vibration Gun were already back on their feet, their rifles aimed squarely in her direction.

Seraphina scrambled for cover.
