I Become Baby Mafia Boss

Chapter 711 - "Energy Core Destroyer"

All the people in the hall, including Grandpa Yofan and other inner circle members, couldn't hide their fear at all. The word 'virus' alone seemed to have a big impact on them.

A virus!

What most families were afraid of wasn't the enemy's invasion using the military troops. It was something more like an epidemic.

In most histories of this world, an epidemic could be more fatal than a huge war.

Not to mention that an epidemic could even destroy one's economic development, territory, and so on.

Thus, when they heard that Paul's trump card is a virus, all of them thought that Paul was a mad man.

Even Ainsley furrowed her eyebrows as she looked at Paul with eyes full of disgust.

"A virus? A man-made?"

Marietta asked Paul what Ainsley just asked, and Paul nodded.

"It's a virus born from a virus ability user who can produce a unique virus, but this one has been further developed through technology and magic."

Paul paused before continuing his words in a hoarse voice.

"It's designed to be a special weapon to handle ability users."

In other words, normal people could be infected too, but the effect wouldn't be that severe. But for ability users…

Ainsley didn't need to ask more because Marietta herself had already asked Paul in a cold tone.

"Explain more about the virus—the incubation period, the symptoms, the effect, the casualty rates, and so on. Tell us all that you know about this virus!"

Paul immediately obeyed Marietta and blurted out all the secrets that he knew.

"The virus is called Energy Core Destroyer. The virus spreads through skin contact and airborne, but the virus will die in an hour if it can't infect an Ability User."

Paul paused to recall all the details about the virus and after a few seconds trying to recall his memories, he continued.

"The virus will affect anyone, as long as they're humans. But as I said before, only ability users below the core-splitting realm will be affected."

"What's the fatality rate and the virus's effect?" Marietta pressed on, hurrying Paul to speak more.

After all, they didn't know when Paul would use the virus! Maybe he didn't bring it with him, and maybe...the virus had already spread from the start of the siege.

If that's the case, trying to stop Paul would be in vain. At least, they should know more about the virus and how to counter it.

"The effect...just like the virus's name, it's a virus that can explode one's energy core. The virus will only be effective for those who have a single core…"

Even multiple ability users who hadn't split their cores to follow the number of their special abilities would only have a single core.

Maybe that's why Paul said that the victims would only be those below the core-splitting realm because once someone split their core, the virus would be divided into the number of cores they had.

The virus couldn't multiply by themselves or becoming stronger because an ability user's special energy was enough to slow down their growth.

Thus, when they had more cores to invade, the virus naturally weakened and if the person continued to operate special energy inside their body and around the core, the virus would have died sooner or later.

Marietta's face was grave after he heard what Paul said.

She had never heard of this kind of virus, but the virus was truly dangerous if it could affect all ability users who only had a single core.

Even the five buds had only been in the core-purification realm and hadn't split their main cores yet!

"How's the incubation period and the symptoms? Also, the possibility of recovery for those infected." Marietta continued her interrogation, and Paul quietly answered.

"The incubation period is one day. After that, the infected will show symptoms of fatigue, fever, their energy running out of control, their cores swelling, and finally, after three days, their cores will explode."

In other words, the virus created havoc inside the energy core and made the core expand beyond its usual size.

This would be dangerous because it meant the energy they had was more abundant than the core, which acted as the medium to contain the energy.

Once the core expanded abnormally and the core couldn't withstand the energy expansion, the core would crack or explode, which means death.

"Also, using the excess energy will only agitate the virus and make it work faster, " Paul added.

Anyway, the virus was quite weak against one's special energy, but it could last for a few

days to mess with the energy before dying with the host.

It means that the virus wouldn't spread further once the host died.

That was one good news, but it also meant to force people to kill the infected so that they wouldn't spread the virus when they're alive.

Or maybe quarantine would be good too.

"As for the possibility of recovery...for those below the core-splitting realm, their recovery rate is almost impossible."

"Almost impossible? There's still a possibility?" Marietta clung to the hope that there's still a tiny possibility of recovery.

But Paul's next answer pushed her into despair.

"Only 0.01% might be able to recover but the virus will severely damage their core. They won't be able to continue their life as a proper Ability User."

In other words, the fatality rate is so high and even the virus's spreading speed is also top-notch.

It was similar to how Covid-19 in Ainsley's previous world could infect so many people in one go…

But this virus's fatality rate was way higher than the other one.

Ainsley's face instantly turned ashen as she looked at Paul with a thick killing intent.
