The Parasite began to tell Nick and the Technician everything it knew about the island.
The first thing it talked about were the cities it had infiltrated.
The Parasite had infiltrated the surrounding six cities, but two of the cities were quite far away, making them less useful.
Sending minions that far away consumed quite a bit of energy and was risky.
After all, the rats needed to use something to move, and the further the rats were away from the main body, the more energy the Parasite needed to spend to control them.
It was similar to when Nick split his mist body apart. The more parts he split into and the further away they were, the more Zephyx Nick needed to use.
The city to the south and Crimson City to the north were the closest cities and the Parasite's main source of power.
After that, the Parasite talked about something quite interesting.
