Chapter 560 - Chapter 554: Berserker

"Ha... Ha... Ha..."

Swinging her massive crystal sword, sweat poured down Alisa's face.

Three days had passed since she awoke. The first thing they did was take blood samples and study her health. The God Eaters had fallen into a coma after the intense battle with the boy from the tower, making Alisa the prime subject for research. Her body had changed so much that even she thought she was dreaming.

The studies revealed that all traces of the Oracle Cells had vanished from her body, and she had become a host for the strange virus.

But that wasn't all. Alisa was now much stronger than when she was infected with the Oracle Cells. She also discovered that a weapon had materialized within her, specifically in her heart, exciting both her and Sakaki.

The loss of the God Arcs was a significant blow to Fenrir, but this new weapon, created from the strange virus, was revolutionary. Sakaki treated it as a miracle from God, a key to an unknown territory.

Of course, Alisa knew this wasn't entirely true. During her slumber, she met her parents and learned that someone incredible had descended into the world to stop the Aragami.

"Champion..."

Muttering, Alisa stopped swinging her sword. During these three days, as she adapted to her new body, she kept thinking about the strange boy from the tower. Her parents told her he was responsible for these changes and the one who brought hope to the world.

"Alright, that's enough for today..."

Sakaki's voice echoed, and Alisa's Void returned to her heart. This versatile new weapon far surpassed the God Arcs. It was maintenance-free and seemed to operate on the energy of its wielder, presenting both advantages and disadvantages. However, the benefits far outweighed the drawbacks.

"This is incredible..."

As Alisa exited the simulator, the data collected left Sakaki ecstatic. As a researcher exploring the unknown, this virus was the most incredible thing he had ever seen.

It wasn't just about healing, vitality, and longevity but also the evolution of new human beings. Alisa was no longer classified as human. She might look human, but she wasn't anymore.

"If Alisa is a Super Human, then the Saint and Berserker are the progenitors... It's like they're Adam and Eve..."

With the collected information, Sakaki, with his high intelligence, pieced together the puzzle. Inori and Yuki were undoubtedly progenitors.

Of course, these were only theories. Sakaki didn't dare to assert his assumptions and couldn't control the virus, as its genetic material changed periodically, making it more challenging than the Oracle Cells.

"I'd like to take a blood sample from Berserker... But that's impossible..."

Sighing, Sakaki knew he couldn't bite off more than he could chew. Berserker, the codename given to Yuki, was a powerful individual. Even though he had stood silently before the wall of fire for 23 days, Johannes didn't dare to disturb him. No one knew the limits of his powers or what could happen if he was provoked. However, that wasn't the main problem.

Outside the golden barrier, millions of Aragami were waiting and attacking. If the barrier broke, there would be no salvation; everyone would die.

Berserker was the only thing standing between life and death for this base, so Johannes didn't dare disturb him. Even when he tried sending a messenger, he never received a response. Anyone who approached was crystallized and killed, which deterred further attempts.

There was another issue they had to resolve...

No one could leave the barrier, not even a fly. This left them with no choice but to use wireless communications and the satellite to learn about the outside world, but even that didn't work.

They were in the same situation as England and didn't know that another Apocalypse Tower had been created in Russia and that the girls had entered China.

Fortunately, this base was self-sufficient, and the daily needs of the people were met without any issues. On the contrary, thanks to the barrier, the base enjoyed 25 days of peace. No Aragami could enter, not even the enormous special Aragami.

Like Ouroboros, Berserker took action personally if a powerful Aragami dared to invade.

This left Fenrir unsure of what to do. In this battle of monsters, humans were as weak as paper.

"The Champion"

Through the screen, Alisa saw the image of Yuki floating in front of the wall of fire. He was turned away, his hair dancing in the wind, his limbs spread out as if taking a good nap. But she knew that wasn't the case. Thanks to the Apocalypse Virus, she had formed a connection with Yuki and knew that the energy around him was enormous, used to maintain the barrier and wall of fire.

Seeing him like this, Alisa recalled the image of the same boy fighting a terrifying monster in the cage, a small figure using only a pistol and a watch against a terrifying beast.

"For the world to be saved, the beast must die... And only the Champion can do it..."

Her parents' words echoed in her mind, as did her mother's request.

"He is tired... Preparing his tea is fine."

Remembering these words, Alisa looked at the boy floating from a different perspective. His sleeping appearance was quite peaceful, very different from his imposing battle style when he struck her 23 days ago.

Her mother was right; this boy was exhausted, which is why...

"I will fulfill my mother's request..."

Alisa's eyes no longer hesitated, nor was she afraid. She grabbed the tray in her hand and took the first step toward fulfilling her destiny.

The world needed them, and it was now or never. Even if it was just to attend to the Champion, she would do it. She wouldn't be afraid anymore; she couldn't fail that bright crown, she couldn't fail her parents...

"What?! Alisa left the quarantine area?"

As someone infected at the cellular level by the strange virus, Alisa was isolated in a special room. Johannes and Sakaki still didn't know how this virus could affect humans, so they couldn't risk letting Alisa out.

But Alisa didn't share their opinion. She forcibly opened the door and escaped, going further to reach Berserker.

"We have to stop her! We can't let her wake Berserker!"

Previously, Berserker didn't wake when other soldiers tried, but Alisa was infected with the strange virus. They couldn't ensure that Berserker wouldn't wake up.

Berserker was more useful sleeping. He was the one maintaining the barrier. They didn't know what would happen if he woke up and didn't dare to risk waking this human-like monster.

"Sir, we can't stop her; walls 2 and 3 have been breached..."

Johannes felt a cold sweat down his back. At Alisa's current power level, if she didn't want to stay in Fenrir, no one could stop her. Any wall would be torn down by her massive sword...

"Why don't we let Alisa try?"

Suddenly, Sakaki suggested, as an investigator deeply interested in Berserker, this was a good opportunity to test his theories...

"Are you serious? We don't even know if Berserker will be hostile... What if he kills us all?"

"I don't think so, maybe he's like the Saint...."

"That's a tiny possibility. Berserker is different from the Saint. His existence is beyond us and was extremely hostile to the God Eaters..."

"That's not certain either. Besides, we don't know if he'll wake up. He might be the same as before with the soldiers..."
