Destiny Mission of game ‘Star Ring’
Chapter 94 - 94 94 Waiting

94: Chapter 94: Waiting 94: Chapter 94: Waiting Unfortunately, after observing for a long time, he did not see any entrance; the entire structure was sealed tightly shut.

Additionally, Su Mo had seen puppet-like soldiers along the coastline near the shipyard.

Their bodies, including their faces, were covered in dense red lines, and they were armed with firearms, guarding the coastal defensive weapons.

Beyond that, he also saw a large number of highly viscous red meat tumor eggs.

These tumors continuously writhed, causing a nauseating sight.

Su Mo squinted his eyes as he stared at the puppet soldiers, his brow furrowed.

He tried hard to recall what exactly this thing was.

But he could not come up with any clues when suddenly, one of the meat tumor eggs burst open.

A creature without any hair, with a conical, deformed head, tentacles, a mouth full of sharp teeth, and a body covered in mysterious red lines emerged from it.

Su Mo tried using the bracelet to identify the creature, and sure enough, a prompt popped up on the bracelet: “Kazami.”

Seeing these three characters, Su Mo was also puzzled.

What on earth was this thing?

Forget it, don’t think about that for now; it’s better to find a relatively safe place to stay for a while.

With this thought, Su Mo moved along the coastline downstream.

His instincts told him that staying as far away as possible from the creature near the shipyard was the wisest choice.

Su Mo managed to put some distance between them, but even so, he felt extremely uneasy, afraid that the creature might detect him at any moment.

He was desperate to get ashore, but unfortunately, the shore was swarming with wandering puppet soldiers.

For the time being, there was really no way to go ashore.

He could only soak in the seawater, silently lurking and waiting for an opportunity to go ashore.

Unconsciously, Su Mo had been soaking for over half an hour, and yet he still hadn’t found a chance to get ashore.

Although the eerie soldiers seemed to patrol back and forth, their mobility seemed weak; they didn’t move much, just guarding their assigned areas.

Of course, these soldiers were not the biggest problem; after all, you could see the threat they posed.

The real trouble was those numerous red meat tumor eggs, large and small.

And they were widely scattered; to go ashore, he would definitely have to pass close by them.

The problem was that Su Mo was unclear about the capabilities of these strange entities.

So, Su Mo raised his bracelet and started to look through the guild’s database, which was more comprehensive and extensive than he had expected.

As soon as Su Mo searched for Kazami, he immediately found relevant data, which, to his surprise, was extensively detailed, and most notably, there was a remark at the beginning of the data.

This document was researched and written by Tushan, the monster analyst of the Third Legion of the Dawn Guild.

He began to read carefully.

Time slowly passed, and after several hours, Su Mo switched off the bracelet.

He now had a thorough understanding of this kind of monster.

Kazami was also a group mutant organism, even more disgusting than Bai Ze because of its reproduction, evolution, and parasitic capabilities.

Moreover, they could amalgamate the genes of the parasitized organism, thus developing different abilities.

Therefore, their evolutionary pathway could show very complex differentiation.

The juvenile Kazami’s combat strength was not strong, but they were very fast and skilled at hiding and parasitism.

After parasitizing humans, they would unlock some special abilities.

The most common were the puppet soldiers, which could harness some of the pre-death abilities of the deceased bodies, such as weapon control.

Since the intellectual capacity of the juvenile Kazami was low, the puppet soldiers they housed did not move much; they would just wander nearby.

However, once the number of puppet soldiers reached a certain level, they would evolve into a Guide type Kazami.

This type of Guide Kazami was extremely fast-thinking and could command and control many puppet soldiers.

If there were no surprises, the creature perched on top of the shipyard was probably a Guide type of Kazami.

By its size, it was at least a type II boss-level entity.

As for those eggs, they were actually Kazami entering a dormant and evolving state.

Once certain conditions were met, Kazami would curl up on the spot, then their bodies would secrete a special mucus to wrap themselves completely, reverting to a meat tumor state to further evolve.

Generally, the larger the size, the stronger the strength, although there were occasional exceptions, but the probability was not high.

The Kazami entering the meat tumor state would usually be in a light sleep.

Normally, if not disturbed, they would not wake up.

But once they were disturbed, or someone came too close, making them feel threatened, they would break out of their shell and attack the enemy immediately.

Moreover, their vigilance range is not fixed, generally proportional to their strength.

Su Mo squinted his eyes, constantly observing the situation on the shore, his thoughts spinning quickly as he calculated various routes ashore.

On the other side onboard the ship, Lin Zinuo and the others leaned weakly against the deck railing.

Lin Zinuo said feebly, “Why hasn’t Su Mo come back yet?

Who knows if he is ‘done for’?

How long has it been?”

“He is not eating the food by himself, is he?”

Sun Hong said weakly.

“Eating the food by himself?

What I’m worried about right now is whether he might have been drowned by the sea halfway, given the long distance.

Or maybe a monster ate him.”

Zhou Qian was not very optimistic about Su Mo.

“Ah, what should we do then?”

Qin Wang and the others were also a bit desperate.

“Enough, stop talking nonsense.”

Lin Zinuo waved her hand impatiently.

“Sister Zinuo, but what if Su Mo really is ‘done for’?

We can’t just sit here foolishly waiting, right?”

Gao Mei asked with great concern.

“Gao Mei, go offline and check in the engine room to see if Su Mo is ‘done for’.

If he really is, we’ll just go all out and drive the ship over!”

Lin Zinuo said through gritted teeth.

“And what if Su Mo is not ‘done for’?”

“Nonsense, if he isn’t, we’ll all just wait here obediently.”

Lin Zinuo rolled her eyes in annoyance.

“Okay, okay….”

Gao Mei quickly responded.

However, at this moment, Su Mo was still soaked in the water, his skin pale from the prolonged exposure.

If he stayed longer, he might not be far from developing edema.

Moreover, the icy sea water continuously sapped the warmth from his body, making him feel exceptionally cold, and in fact, his activity was not much different from chronic self-harm.

But Su Mo still had no intention of moving; he was waiting for the sky to turn completely dark.

The information did not mention that the monsters had keen senses of smell and perception, which meant they were inferior to Bai Ze in this regard.

So, Su Mo planned to move under the cover of night, already having mapped out a route that would bypass the puppet soldiers and go up from the area with the meat tumor eggs.

The monsters’ strange red lines on their bodies were like conspicuous light bulbs, easy to avoid.

Su Mo waited patiently.

Eventually, he had endured until the night fell completely, blending with a faint mist, significantly reducing visibility.

That was when Su Mo made his move, inching his way forward.
