“As expected!”

“The village guard has been secretly raising a late-stage Whale Transformation Disease patient here.”

“He contracted the Whale Transformation Disease because of prolonged exposure to infected individuals, breaking through his own resistance!”

“The reason he summoned a demon is not hard to guess.”

“This Whale Transformation Disease patient is about to transform into a whale!” For more chapters visit novelFirｅ.net

When Whale Transformation Disease reaches its final stage, the patient truly becomes a whale, transforming into an actual whale.

This whale brings certain disasters but also becomes a kind of treasure.

“After the patient transforms into a whale, they emit a true whale song, tricking the Floating Whales into mistakenly believing a new Floating Whale has been born, triggering earthquakes and a series of chain reactions!”

“Moreover, since the patient is not a real Floating Whale, the Floating Whales cannot genuinely sense the presence of the infant, causing them to become even more ferocious!” Naimes’ gaze seemed to pierce through the cave, seeing the patient inside.

“But this is not entirely bad. Late-stage Whale Transformation Disease patients develop many organs similar to those of Floating Whales, and all these are treasures.”

For example, Naimes once saw a whale bone flute made from the patient’s throat and bones.

That whale bone flute could blow whale songs and communicate with Floating Whales to some extent.

It was a treasure of the Oath God's church, kept in the treasury and only taken out for use during special times.

Besides that, the patient’s internal organs produce whale oil, whose effectiveness is close to that of genuine Floating Whale whale oil.

The latter is a controlled resource; only when a Floating Whale dies is a small amount of its whale oil allowed to be extracted.

Its function is to assist Steel Seed individuals in enhancing their own numbers and has the ability to elevate them to Gold Seed.

Although the whale oil from the transformed patients is not as good as that of Floating Whales, it still reliably helps Black Stone grade individuals evolve into Steel Seed and assists Steel Seed practitioners in cultivation.

Because of this, some places have even tried breeding Whale Transformation Disease patients.

But eventually, with many patients existing simultaneously, the situation where the Floating Whales have several offspring yet cannot find them at all enraged the Floating Whales utterly.

They went completely berserk, their flight becoming unstable, causing over a million people living on their backs to be killed or injured.

This situation provoked widespread outrage, and major powers united to slaughter all the breeders.

The corpses still hang on the dorsal fin of that Floating Whale.

“During the whale transformation process, the patient emits a unique aura that’s easy to detect if searched for.”

“So other auras are needed to interfere.”

“Also, during this process, the patient’s demand for human organs increases.”

“At this time, summoning a demon to confuse everyone is a very wise choice!” Naimes quickly deduced the village guard’s plan.

Demons are the best garbage bins; all abnormalities during the whale transformation can be directly blamed on the demon.

But the village guard did not expect Naimes to so efficiently exterminate the demon, find him the very night of the extermination, and directly set up an ambush.

“Good girl, it’s okay!”

“Eat something quickly. After eating, you’ll calm down!!”

Inside the cave, the village guard, enduring pain all over his body, hurriedly took out a cloth bag filled with strange dried meat and fed it to the “monster” before him—almost three meters tall, entirely dark-skinned, resembling a humanoid beast.

Watching his daughter ravenously devour the dried meat, the village guard felt much of his pain ease at this moment, leaving only heartache.

He was originally a member of Op’s caravan. During a cargo run, he quietly hid some of Op’s goods amid external crises, planning to sell them on his own.

But this was eventually exposed, leading to the destruction of his family and his fall from grace.

He was stripped of his name and became a reserve village guard.

He had given up hope and waited for death but unexpectedly found that his daughter had not truly died, only accidentally infected with Whale Transformation Disease.

Since then, the village guard found new motivation to live.

He killed a fellow reserve village guard from the same period, took his internal organs, and secretly exhumed corpses to steal organs.

All this was to provide enough food for his daughter to survive the disease’s evolutionary stage.

Up until now, the most critical stage.

“As long as you get through this stage, my good girl, you’ll regain your sanity and live normally!” The village guard comforted his ferocious daughter, repeating his research conclusions again and again.

Unlike Naimes, who was knowledgeable and worldly, the village guard only knew some information about Whale Transformation Disease but was trapped in this small village.

He was unclear about the disease’s later stages. To protect his daughter, he began his own “research.”

Having gained some resistance from drinking deep well water, the village guard used himself as a test subject and had developed a fairly deep understanding of the disease, thus reaching this conclusion.

“I think you’re going to be disappointed!” Naimes’ voice triggered a violent reaction from the village guard.

“After whale transformation, the patient’s brain structure mutates; they will not regain sanity but only suffer more.”

The village guard paid no attention to Naimes’ voice. He looked at Naimes in terror and rage, as if Naimes had defiled his last pure sanctuary.

The fading black spots on his body reappeared, and his glowing green eyes, as he lunged rapidly, left two green streaks in the dark cave.

His sharp claws swiped at Naimes, but Naimes didn’t even bother raising his sword to block.

Grace of Forgiveness!

Any power below a value of ten is completely immune.

This is the way of divine-related power—completely unreasonable.

The village guard felt like he wasn’t attacking a person but crashing into a mountain wall… even if it were a mountain wall, he could tear it apart with his claws.

But now, he couldn’t hurt the person in front of him at all.

“Run, good girl!! Run!” The village guard scratched at Naimes frantically, filled with a self-sacrificing determination to save his daughter.

The cave had more than one entrance; on the other side, there was another entrance usually sealed.

The village guard had taught his daughter, who still retained some sanity, to escape from there in critical moments.

But at this moment, some ropes appeared.

At the same time, two shadows darted past the two of them.

They were Tangs and Shadow Hound.

The village guard’s daughter did not run either but let out a beast-like roar.

Her previously curled-up body stood up; her black skin was marked with trenches, looking like a whale standing upright.

She had lost most of her human form and become whale-like. At this moment, she should be called a Whale Man.
