「Infected with 'Dragon Virus'」
「Shroud of Arcuied · Alucard · The Vampire's Salvation — Activated」
「'Dragon Virus' failed to pass judgment」
Lancer received similar prompts almost the instant the container shattered, and Lancer realized that what Nimura Furuta said just now was all true!
But a virus?!
'Tiger, you are the main carry this time, so be strong.'
Lancer no longer bothered with Nimura Furuta, who was grabbing his severed arm and preparing to flee. Instead, he took a horn pipe with a cat paw print from his waist.
"Ooh ooh~~"
Amidst the chaotic battlefield, the sound of the horn pipe was low but was heard by almost everyone, and then —
"Meow~!"
"Meow."
"Meow…"
Accompanied by three strange sounds, three small dots were then seen appearing in the air.
Ordinary people might not see clearly what they were, but Lancer saw them clearly.
Tiger, Jack, and Aru, three feline spirits, slowly descended from the sky on three parachutes marked with cat paw logos. It seemed that Lancer bringing them along when he fell from the 'Hanging Gardens' before had given them quite a shock.
'Are they conducting an air drop training?'
Although the appearance of the three feline spirits was a bit strange, they finally arrived regardless.
"Ooh~ Ooh~"
The hunting horn Tiger blew was much more pleasant to hear than the horn pipe Lancer, the tone-deaf person, blew.
Most people didn't know what was happening, only looking strangely at the feline spirits in the air making strange horn sounds, but Lancer, who had the 'System Panel', knew that Tiger was already having an effect.
「Hunting Horn · Detox — Activated」
「Poison resistance increased for all targets who hear the music, centered around the music」
"Meow~!!"
"Meow."
Tiger landed directly next to Kureo Mado and stood on the roof of the car, blowing the hunting horn, while Al and Jack landed at Lancer feet and on his head. Lancer stroked the two feline spirits' heads in response to their greeting.
"I apologize. I called you out today, and I have to trouble you again."
"Meow meow~~ Meow meow!!"
Jack patted his chest and stood up straight. Although Jack was usually a bit tsundere, he still knew how to distinguish between priorities when working, and the situation this time was clearly quite urgent.
"You distribute these Detox Potions G to the others."
"Meow~"
Al took down the rack that usually held explosives and directly ran towards the distance with several bottles, while Jack ran towards the closest people with two bottles in his arms.
"Lancer, these…"
"Special Class Marude, drink it first. The container just now held the 'inducer' that Nimura Furuta mentioned."
Lancer face instantly became incredibly ugly as he spoke. He had previously thought that Nimura Furuta was merely talking nonsense, but Lancer now said it was all true. He didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Smack~"
But just at this moment, Kureo Mado, standing aside, snatched the purple bottle from Iwao Kuroiwa's hand, opened the stopper, and poured it directly into his mouth.
"A little bitter, but the taste is okay."
Although Iwao Kuroiwa did not distrust Lancer, it was impossible for him to drink this strange-looking liquid just because of Lancer words, and Kureo Mado also saw the opponent's concern, so he drank it himself directly.
He trusted his own judgment.
And Iwao Kuroiwa, seeing Kureo Mado's reaction, gritted his teeth and picked up a bottle from the ground and drank it.
It was indeed a little bitter, just as Kureo Mado said, but there was no other feeling.
'Is this an antidote?'
Iwao Kuroiwa and Kureo Mado's leading behavior made the others couldn't help but take another look at the fluffy Jack and Al, but then they also pulled out the stoppers and drank it.
As for the Investigators who belonged to Nimura Furuta, they subconsciously gathered together and were then forced into a corner by the subordinates led by Tanakamaru Moiji, but perhaps because they belonged to the 'enemy', Jack and Al did not send the Detox Potion G over. The two sides remained in silent confrontation like this.
Until —
"Ooh!"
A female Investigator suddenly made a strange sound among the gathered Investigators. Tanakamaru Moiji, who had been closely watching them, immediately cast his stern gaze over.
If there was one Investigator who was most furious after learning that the Washuu family were Ghouls, it was this muscular man. As a Special Class Investigator who had even voted against cooperating with 'The Owl' back then, his hatred for Ghouls was completely undisguised. When he learned that he was actually working for Ghouls, he was so angry that he directly smashed his office desk.
But his originally serious expression instantly widened after looking over.
Because he saw the female Investigator's body suddenly begin to twist bizarrely, and then her limbs swelled up, until her elbows burst open. Her original muscles were completely exposed, and at the same time, accompanied by a terrifying mournful cry, blocks of muscle burst out from the female Investigator's body, and her eyes turned crimson, no different from Kakugan.
"Meow~"
And just at this moment, a cat meow suddenly sounded in his ear, and then he saw a feline spirit with a large basket on its back holding a purple glass bottle and handing it to him.
"Meow meow~"
Seeing that Tanakamaru Moiji did not take it, it pointed behind him, signaling him to look at the others who had drunk it, and Lancer shout also came through at this time.
"This is a resistance-boosting potion. Just in case, everyone, please drink it!"
Tanakamaru Moiji couldn't help but shiver as he looked at the second and even third Investigators belonging to the Washuu family who were undergoing physical changes.
"Everyone, drink it!"
It was better to be safe than sorry.
— — — — — —
Although Tiger used the hunting horn to increase everyone's poison resistance, the distribution of the Detox Potion G still required time, and the influence of the hunting horn also diminished with distance. Almost at the same time the Washuu family's Investigators began to mutate, changes also appeared among the ordinary people.
Undoubtedly, the resistance of ordinary people to the 'Dragon Virus' also varied in strength.
"Use the RC suppressor fluid!"
But almost simultaneously as the mutation occurred, Kureo Mado's somewhat hoarse voice sounded, and then the colleagues around the few Investigators who were showing abnormal physical changes took the RC suppressor fluid from their waists and injected it directly into their bodies.
The abnormal condition on those people finally gradually alleviated as the transparent liquid was slowly injected into their bodies.
"After that man captured me and Amon, he showed us images of people infected with the 'virus' to intimidate us. According to him, the 'RC suppressor fluid' can curb the spread of the virus to a certain extent, but this is an irreversible transformation. A specific cure must be developed."
Speaking of this, he subconsciously glanced at Lancer.
The fact that the people who had drunk the 'Detox Potion G' before did not show any abnormal condition made him somewhat surprised.
