"Hey, Ke, you're recovering pretty fast!" Gray casually greeted his partner, who had been lying down for just a week, "Why are you wearing so much?"
"It's too cold. My demon pattern doesn't have your burning ability." Ke instinctively tightened his collar.
He wrapped himself tightly to prevent the mycelium that had already spread to his limbs from being exposed.
Fortunately, he hadn't been parasitized for long, the mycelium hadn't crawled to his face yet, otherwise, it would be impossible to hide.
During this time, he frantically collected intelligence related to mycelium parasitism.
However, the results disappointed him.
These parasitic mycelia were completely different from all known parasitic methods, and they appeared so recently that the Empire didn't have time to study countermeasures.
Theoretically feasible methods, such as resurrection, demon race's body reshaping, or the effects of certain divine artifacts.
None of these were accessible to Ke.
