Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game-Chapter 705 - 350: The Oppressive Feeling of the Purgatory Angel_1

The strategic gains from this Chapter weren’t particularly significant overall.

In general terms, what he gained was the ’Perfect Parasite’ ability of the Fully Adaptive Parasite and the Blending Liquid of the Shadowdancer, which can morph into a Legendary Grade Shell.

The other benefits from various equipment additions didn’t much impact his overall strength.

Using the ’Coronet of the Star Lord’ indeed considerably increased his spirit regeneration, but the scarcity of Boss battles in this Chapter made even the improved drop rate from lesser monsters less profitable than expected.

However, this does neglect Lin Xun’s inherent talents.

For Apostles without Thousand Faces and Million Forms, simply possessing a ’Fully Adaptive Parasite’ that can ignore compatibility and possess the majority of insectoids represented the most significant gain of this Chapter.

The strength this shell gave was enough to outweigh the fact that gains from this Chapter were relatively low.

Obtaining this shell and then recruiting ’Jinmu’ or other characters to help in monster-slaying could result in acquiring a powerful shell to further boost strength.

While it may not appear to be a significant gain for Lin Xun, for other Apostles, the rewards from this Chapter far exceed those from other Chapters.

Fortunately, the difficulty should give way to rewards. The gains from the hidden map should not be far off.

The ’Feathered Experimental Purgatory Angel’ hanging in mid-air gave off an intimidating aura to Star Lord Canis, signifying this shell was not weaker than the Star Lord’s.

[’Flandre’ gazed at the sleeping girl in the capsule, her face full of complex emotions, silent.]

[Suddenly, ’Jinmu’ let out a surprised exclamation, picking up a notebook filled with annotations from a nearby bony platform.]

[He signaled for you and ’Flandre’ to come over, and you quickly approached...]

[You discovered the ’Wet Nurse’s Experimental Log’ (Data)!]

[You took the notebook and began reading its content...]

[...]

[A violent rejection reaction occurred in the 12th experimental clone due to its gene factors, causing gene collapse. Its outer skin and internal organs couldn’t bear the deterioration which prompted rapid decay...]

[The 12th experimental clone has been destroyed, starting the cultivation experiment of the 13th experimental clone.]

[...]

[The gene decryption rate of the 33rd experimental clone is too low, and the clone couldn’t reach the expected integration level. Its strength not only failed to surpass the original, but rather dropped significantly...]

[The 33rd experimental clone has been destroyed, beginning the cultivation experiment of the 34th experimental clone.]

[...]

[The vital signs of the 57th experimental clone are all intact, with integration reaching the maximum capacity of the ’Gene Umbilical Cord’. Due to not fully understanding the Firefly gene, the 57th clone can’t be further improved to reach the Extraordinary level for now.]

[To sum up, the 57th experimental clone will not be destroyed, but kept in the cultivation capsule to continue growth and development until progress is made in deciphering the Firefly gene...]

[...]

[After reading the ’Wet Nurse’s Experimental Log,’ ’Flandre’ tightly pursed her lips, her fists clenching.]

[You could tell that the girl’s indignation was at its limit. Anyone discovering countless clones made from their own flesh and blood, constantly being slaughtered like livestock, would find it hard to be happy.]

[’Flandre’ eventually calmed down and explained that the ’Nursing Cord’ sensed by the ’Replica Cord’ should be within the so-called ’Experimental Purgatory Angel’.]

[Remember what she had told you before, the cord is the physical manifestation of life factors. According to the experimental log, this clone was cultivated before the Wet Nurse cracked the Firefly Gene. The umbilical cord within the clone had undergone numerous experiments and reached the maximum degree of gene integration.]

[She could sense that the power of the clone, named ’Experimental Purgatory Angel’, was not far from hers, Flandre.]

[Thanks to the newly fused Firefly life factor, the clone would gain many abilities she didn’t possess.]

[Such a breakthrough has been made even though the Firefly gene has not been cracked... no wonder that perfect clone achieved near-godlike power.]

[’Flandre’ moved to the operating platform, continuing to speak to you. The capsule which encased the clone had been treated with a special technique by the Wet Nurse, making it a challenge to break open.]

[But through the operating platform, she can continue to inject the Firefly gene into the clone. Unable to withstand it, the clone will collapse and quickly decay and die due to the gene factor.]

[She asked for your opinion. How do you plan to deal with the ’Experimental Purgatory Angel’?]

[What will you choose?]

[1. Continue injecting the Firefly gene to kill the ’Experimental Purgatory Angel’ without shedding any blood and get rewarded. Of course, the clone container will perish as a result, and the ’Cord’ within it will also collapse due to the overload.]

[2. Activate the capsule to wake up the ’Experimental Purgatory Angel’, and let ’Flandre’ kill the clone. Consequently, you can obtain the clone container and its internal ’Cord’. As it is ’Flandre’ who will make the kill, you can’t obtain too many other rewards from the clone.]

[3. Order ’Flandre’ and ’Jinmu’ to stay aside, while you face off against the ’Experimental Purgatory Angel’ by yourself in a fair and square battle. Although it will be the most difficult choice, obtaining more rewards is the most important aspect compared to difficulty.]

Lin Xun didn’t hesitate and picked the third option.

He would first confront the Boss alone. If he couldn’t handle it, he was certain that ’Flandre’ would step in to help.
