Main God Creation Rules

The girl smiled as she awkwardly used her newly acquired psychic powers.

Meanwhile, Lin Yi, shifting his perspective back, paused for a moment: "That's good enough. Although I don't know how long she can hold on, at least she won't just die so easily. As for when she remembers... God, does the ability to resurrect exist in this world?"

Insufficient information to make a judgment

"No...it doesn't matter whether it exists or not, what matters is whether it can be believed."

He muttered to himself, making a decision.

Before long, a grayed-out exchange option appeared on the wristwatches of every reincarnator in the main god space.

Resurrection (highest level)

Rarity: Black

Function: Revives any specified life form in its complete state.

Reward points required for redemption: 100000000

After solving one problem, the next one to solve is the parasite.

As the only race in World Seven protected by the World's Will, Lin Yi was quite curious about the existence of parasitic beasts.

"Can I interpret this as meaning that they are the 'protagonists' of that world?"

Insufficient information to make a judgment

Ignoring the God's meaningless answer, Lin Yi used his knowledge to speculate: "Or rather, they did not evolve through species elimination like humans, but were life forms created under the active intervention of the world's will. This would explain why there is a world will in parallel worlds, and why the parasitic beasts, who are only a minority, are protected by the world, while the majority of humans are not protected."

Picking up the parasitized head, Lin Yi's eyes revealed a fanatical glint that even he himself didn't realize: "Let me see what you really are..."

Forbidden Zone of Life: Chapter 87 Ghouls (Part 1)

World No. 7, Tokyo, Japan.

The yellow cordon completely covered a small alleyway next to the road, occasionally attracting curious glances from passersby, but most people hurried past as if afraid of being entangled with something unclean.

In some ways, this thing is indeed not very clean.

"Chief Arima, this is the third case this month. If this continues, it could cause widespread panic throughout Tokyo..."

Extinguishing his cigarette, the middle-aged man known as Chief Arima asked with a serious expression, "How's the investigation into the victims going?"

"Similar to before, the victims were attacked and most of their bodies were eaten away. Moreover, the victims had no connection with the previous two people. It can only be considered a random killing."

"If it's just about killing people."

"Chief Arima?"

"Do you really think the killer just played a prank to scare us? Those mutilated corpses."

The officer was completely confused: "Um, wasn't it said that he was bitten by a stray dog...?"

"After half a month of searching, have you seen even half a stray dog ​​in Tokyo?"

"..."

"And those who are missing."

Director Arima lit another cigarette, his brow furrowed. "There must be something wrong with this. There must be."

Before my eyes, dried, dark brown bloodstains on the ground emitted a foul stench, stretching all the way to the end of the road…

"I'm so full...no...I can't eat anymore..."

With a slight pout, Yamada Suzuki reluctantly opened his eyes as the midday sun shone through the gap in the curtains onto his face.

As always, Yamada Suzuki stared blankly at the familiar ceiling—he knew in his heart that now was not the time to do anything, whether it was the school he hadn't been to for several days or the ever-increasing number of missed calls on his phone that needed to be dealt with immediately, but he just didn't want to get up.

If the reason is...

"So hungry—wait?"

As she instinctively touched her stomach, Yamada Suzuki was surprised to find that the agonizing hunger that had been lingering until last night was completely gone. She sat up abruptly, staring at her stomach in disbelief: "What happened...?"

To understand why he, who was originally just an ordinary middle school student, ended up like this, we have to start with an accident that happened four days ago.

That day, he went to school and went home as usual, but was involved in a car accident on the way. Perhaps it is not appropriate to say that, because at that moment Yamada Suzuki lost consciousness and could not see whether the perpetrator was a car or something. He only felt a sharp pain and lost consciousness. When he woke up again, apart from his clothes being a little dusty, there were no wounds or anything.

Completely baffled, Yamada Suzuki could only go home, but the problem began that very night.

Back home, feeling extremely hungry, Yamada Suzuki took out food from the refrigerator as usual. The food, which had tasted fine in the morning, suddenly tasted awful when he put it in his mouth. It was like a rotten egg that had been sitting out for ten days. Unbelievable! After running to the bathroom and vomiting for a while, Yamada Suzuki threw away all the food he had eaten that morning.

But something devastating happened: no matter what ingredients he used, no matter what food he made, no matter how delicious it smelled, everything would taste different when he put those foods that used to taste incredibly delicious into his mouth.

Foul stench, rotting, moldy...

It was like a hodgepodge dug out of a garbage dump, and naturally, Yamada Suzuki couldn't eat anything that night, but that was just the beginning.

The same situation continued the next day, so he had no choice but to go to a specialized hospital, only to be told that there was nothing wrong. Unconvinced, Yamada Suzuki went to three different hospitals, but the results were the same. The food problem could not be solved. On the contrary, the large amount of exercise made his already empty stomach feel even more uncomfortable.

On the third day, Yamada Suzuki didn't even go to class. He just kept repeating the process of cooking, eating, and vomiting at home until he lost consciousness and collapsed. Today, the fourth day, when he woke up, he suddenly found that the hunger he felt last night had disappeared without a trace, as if it were a hallucination.

Although he didn't know the reason, it didn't dampen Yamada Suzuki's good mood at all—until he stood in front of the sink and saw his own face.

"ah------!!!"

Whistling off-key, Watanabe Taro used his concealed vision to search for his prey for the night on the streets, and soon found one to satisfy his hunger.

Skilledly following behind the prey, Watanabe Taro wondered if it was just his imagination, but the prey kept heading towards a secluded place. In the past, he would have become suspicious or even given up, but things were different now.

"Hehehe, I'm different now!"

With a piercing laugh, Watanabe Taro walked straight into the dark corner, but what he saw was quite different from what he had imagined.

If a person—a "thing" whose head splits open and whose neck can stretch like a snake—can still be called a person, then this "person" is clearly waiting for Watanabe Taro to arrive.

“New species, we have been watching you for a long time.”

Emits a numb sound through the parasite's vocal cords. The parasite, which is essentially devoid of emotion, cannot produce a rich variety of vocal tones. It is adopting an aggressive stance: "Your behavior is attracting human attention. As a source of instability, you must be eliminated."

"Hahaha--"

Suddenly realizing he was no longer the fragile human he once was, Watanabe Taro's fear of seeing this creature from a horror movie quickly dissipated. Although his movements were still slightly trembling, he seemed eager to try something: "Monster, who do you think you're talking to? I don't know what's wrong with you, but I've decided, you're my meal tonight!"

With the sound of tearing fabric, a tail-like creature of flesh and blood, spreading and multiplying from behind Watanabe Taro, crashed to the ground, leaving cracks in its wake. Licking his lips, Watanabe Taro, whose eyes had turned a dark red, roared excitedly, "Come on, let me eat you!"

Forbidden Zone of Life: Chapter 88 Ghouls (Part 2)

Based on observations, the T-virus mutates by eroding the entire body, from consciousness to the physical body. Parasites, on the other hand, achieve a symbiotic state by occupying and replacing parts of the parasitic organism. However, because the part being replaced is the brain, the symbiosis becomes an invasion mode dominated by the parasite's consciousness.

So, what would happen if we combined the mutation of T with the parasitism of parasites?

Based on this line of thinking, the fourth mutation mode of the T-virus was born. Unlike the lateral evolution of the original virus's attributes, unlike the flesh-metal mutation of the Kabane virus, and unlike the giant's cell proliferation and gigantification, it grows an additional parasitic "limb" in addition to strengthening the original infected body to a certain extent.

Through this limb, the infected organism can utilize a large amount of cellular energy to maintain an extended external "organ," such as growing a tail, acquiring wings, donning armor, and so on—all mutation patterns.

If there's any shortcoming in this fourth mutation mode of the T-virus, it's probably that it combines the feeding characteristics of both the T-virus and the parasites—that they both use human flesh as an energy source—into a feeding tendency that changes from "wanting to eat people" to "being able to eat people only." Based on this tendency, Lin Yi ultimately named this fourth mutation virus model—

"Ghoul virus".

Watching the fierce battle between the ghouls and parasites, Lin Yi nodded in satisfaction: "For an initial performance, it's already quite good. Main God, is the data collection complete?"

[99.84%...100%, combat resource gathering complete.]

"Very good. Establish a database for the fourth virus sample and try to deduce subsequent evolutionary patterns."

【Command confirmation】

"The next step is simply to eliminate these parasites in this world."

Looking at the map on the table, which had been "found" in the brains of the parasitic beast samples captured earlier, Lin Yi crossed out one of the red dots: "You think you can destroy the human world with less than a thousand of these? Are you dreaming or just naive?"

----------segmentation----------

Shinichi Izumi, 16 years old, a third-year high school student, lost his right hand to a parasitic organism called "Right" a few months ago and was forced to live with it. He is kind and honest by nature—only in the period before his mother was killed by another parasite.

After experiencing the crisis of his mother being murdered, his father being attacked, and himself nearly dying, perhaps due to the spread of parasite cells throughout his body causing mental changes, or perhaps simply due to a series of huge shocks, Shinichi Izumi at this moment is no longer the kind and enthusiastic person he once was, but has become a more calm... or rather, cold-blooded person.

But this day was a little different.

"Shinichi, to the right."

"...Is it a parasite?"

Shinichi Izumi was no longer as panicked as he had been at the beginning when faced with his mutated right hand. Moreover, after the previous time when it saved him from the brink of death, the relationship between them as a parasite and a parasite had become somewhat ambiguous.

On one hand, as a parasite, Shinichi Izumi indiscriminately loathed the parasites that killed his mother; on the other hand, he subconsciously felt a subtle sense of gratitude towards the parasite in his hands that had saved him… He himself probably didn’t know how to get along with this parasite called “Migi,” but one thing was certain: he was now filled with hatred for the parasites that had killed his mother and taken away his family.

So, after being modified by "Migi" on the verge of death, Shinichi Izumi used his superhuman physical abilities to search for and deal with every parasite he encountered. Initially, "Migi" was against it, not because she couldn't bring herself to harm her own kind, but because it would expose her. However, this time, for some reason, she suddenly spoke up.

"It has half the smell."

"Half the smell?"

Although he couldn't understand Migi's answer, Shinichi Izumi remained cautious and moved closer to the direction it indicated.

Soon, Shinichi Izumi, who had taken a shortcut to a secluded abandoned construction site, noticed something amiss.

"here it is……"

“There are parasites fighting here.”

The right hand, which stretched out like a mollusk, sprouted eyes and carefully "examined" the remaining traces on the ground: "And there's another unfamiliar smell."

"An unfamiliar scent... could it be another parasite?"

Seeing these familiar traces, Shinichi Izumi thought there was another parasite who had chosen to fight the parasites just like him. However, after hearing this answer, he quickly regained his composure. The answer from "Right Hand" was unequivocal: "It's not a parasite. The blood here has a different smell. You should be able to tell now."

Half-believing, half-doubting, Shinichi Izumi lowered his head and sniffed a few times. Relying on his extraordinary physical structure, he detected two scents that ordinary people could not distinguish at all: "Indeed, different scents."

"Be on your guard, Shinichi. This city isn't as safe as it used to be."

“It has never been safe here since you came.”

His tone turned somewhat cold, and this time Shinichi Izumi did not agree to the parasite's request: "If possible, I would like to find them, as long as they can help me deal with the parasite!"

The right eye stared at its parasite for a long time before silently returning to its original right-hand shape.

That night, in addition to the location discovered by Shinichi Izumi, three battles between parasitic beasts and ghouls broke out in Tokyo, and seventeen people disappeared without a trace in the city under the cover of night...

Forbidden Zone of Life: Chapter 89 Ghouls (Part 2)

It has been proven that the stronger the external defense, the easier it is to break through from within. This was tested once before in World Two, which was infected by the T-virus, using camps composed of survivors. It has also worked well in this brand new World Seven.

Compared to spending time and energy to continuously cultivate new reincarnators and then investing them, directly using the completed Variant Agent 4 to ghoul-modify a portion of the humans, and then using the impossible coexistence between these native ghouls and parasites to launch a targeted counterattack, is significantly more efficient.

On one hand, these ghouls, which also originated from the local world, are not targeted by the world's will; on the other hand, they also possess strong stealth abilities. Combining the characteristics of the T-virus and parasites, unless they expose their "mutated limbs," it is impossible to detect that they are different from ordinary humans... Perhaps cannibalism is one of them?

However, now in this city, it's not just ghouls that have to eat people; there are also parasitic beasts with clear organizations and divisions of labor.

There's a clear law in the laws of nature: long-term peace is impossible between different predators that feed on the same species, especially the more intelligent the predators. Faced with these ghouls of unknown origin, the parasites at the top of the city's food chain initially maintained a hostile and annihilating attitude: the ghouls' actions could expose their existence, and the ghouls themselves were equally uninterested in these man-eating parasites. The reasons for this likely stemmed from a combination of factors, but a crucial element was the initial "choice" of these ghouls.

World No. 7, Tokyo.

"Has a sister and a house, both parents deceased... cause of death: car accident?"

Browsing through the information about this family that the Main God had searched using this world's network, Lin Yi raised an eyebrow: "Can you confirm that he was present at the time?"

[There is a 74.9% probability that the target's wording was significantly different when reporting the accident immediately after the incident compared to the second time, and that they attempted to spread information about alienated life forms online after the incident.]

Based on this information, Lin Yi could easily deduce the situation at the time: the parasite attacked his parents, causing a car accident that resulted in their deaths. His son, who witnessed the entire incident, suppressed his grief and went to the police station to report it, only to be treated unfairly. This was understandable; who would believe the claim of "aliens attacking family members" without a reason, especially after evidence of the bodies and the crime scene had been found?

Faced with this situation, the son felt deeply desperate. He could only lock himself in his room and use the internet to spread the news he saw in the hope of attracting people's attention. However, unfortunately, the parasites that Lin Yi had observed over this period of time and confirmed to have their own organization and division of labor would not allow such information to spread. Today, all the information he posted was ordered to be deleted by a parasite who had entered politics. As expected, he would "die suddenly" at home tomorrow. As for the reason, Lin Yi had even thought of it for him.

"Excessive grief."

“A pitiful person.” He pulled down his hood, blocking the view from the newly installed surveillance cameras on the roadside. “Unfortunately, this world is not lacking in pitiful people.”

It is foreseeable that even more pitiful people will be born in the future.

"Xiao You, is this the place?"

"Judging from their conversation, there shouldn't be any other possibility besides this area."

The mutated right hand used the eyeballs growing from its fingertips to constantly observe its surroundings: "There are probably around two. If there are more than that, retreat immediately."
