Infinite Disasters: I Hoarded My Way to Godhood novel Chapter 31

Chapter 31: Chapter 31: Spirit Attack, Parasitic Worm

Seraphina Sullivan studied the display on the Sound Wave Vibration Gun.

Her brow furrowed; something felt wrong.

"Are we just going to wait here in this supply room?" she asked in a low voice, her gaze sweeping warily around them.

Troy Lynn, on the other hand, was more carefree. He had already torn open a pack of compressed biscuits and was eating them, mumbling indistinctly, "It’s... pretty safe here..."

But Summer Lynn’s expression grew increasingly grim.

She gripped the water bottle in her hand so tightly her knuckles turned white. "No. Even if the supply room is safe for now, once the chaos outside dies down, the people from the base will definitely come to check on this place."

She stood up, her voice trembling slightly. "Troy, you’ve had a moment to recover. Use your Softening Ability on the wall. We need to grab our things and prepare to leave."

Seraphina Sullivan glanced down at the detection screen on the Sound Wave Vibration Gun. The fluctuations on it had suddenly become erratic.

The red dots inside the base were converging rapidly, as if they had been summoned.

Seeing this,

a strong sense of unease washed over her. But before she could even shout a warning—

"SCREEEEEEE—!"

A piercing shriek suddenly tore through the entire base, feeling like countless steel needles were being driven directly into the trio’s brains.

The world instantly spun for Seraphina Sullivan. A warmth filled her nasal cavity, and warm blood began to pour from her nose.

She staggered, grabbing a shelf for support as her ears rang.

"Ah! It hurts!"

Troy Lynn cried out in pain. The biscuit in his hand fell to the floor as he clutched his head and collapsed to his knees, a trickle of blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.

Summer Lynn was in even worse shape. She spat out a mouthful of blood and swayed on her feet. If she hadn’t managed to brace herself against a wall, she would have fainted.

Although Seraphina Sullivan’s head was also splitting, the Body Transformation Pills must have enhanced her physical constitution, because she barely managed to stay conscious.

She wiped away her nosebleed, her voice hoarse. "What... what the hell was that?"

It was clear they were under some kind of attack, one that bypassed all defenses and injured all three of them directly.

Summer Lynn shook her head weakly, her face as pale as a sheet. "I... I don’t know... But I think... it must be some kind of... special parasite... that this base was cultivating..."

"We caused chaos in the base, and now this monster has been unleashed because of it."

The screeching outside grew closer, accompanied by heavy footsteps and the grating sound of tearing metal.

The cans on the shelves began to vibrate slightly, and dust rained down from the ceiling.

Fighting through her splitting headache, Seraphina Sullivan aimed the Sound Wave Vibration Gun toward the outside.

A massive red dot appeared on the screen, its Energy reading several times higher than that of an ordinary parasite.

"This is bad..." Her voice was dry. "Something ’big’ is coming..."

Seraphina Sullivan instantly realized the gravity of the situation. She had the supplies she wanted; now she had to get out immediately!

The Lynn siblings reacted as well, and the three of them exchanged a look.

"Quick! I’ll soften the wall, and we’ll leave right now!" Troy Lynn shouted, pressing his hands against the concrete wall on the side of the warehouse.

The wall immediately began to soften, growing thinner like melting butter.

Summer Lynn shouldered a backpack full of supplies and urged anxiously, "Faster!"

Seraphina Sullivan quickly followed, but as she passed the last aisle, she took advantage of the siblings’ distraction to pull an entire shelf unit, loaded with cans and compressed biscuits, into her Space.

The metal shelving unit made a faint HUM as it vanished, but the sound was completely drowned out by the monster’s roars from outside.

"Go!" Troy Lynn barked, being the first to squeeze through the wall that was now as soft as mud.

Summer Lynn followed close behind, with Seraphina Sullivan bringing up the rear.

Having done this before, Troy Lynn quickly found the best escape route.

Just as they were about to escape the confines of the base, that horrifying screech attacked them again!
