[The poor elderly, they had been assimilated by the Overlord when we entered.]
[Or rather, they were being digested by the Overlord.]
[If this were a normal Secret Realm Clearing, we would now casually clear away these cocoons to prevent "them" from "hatching" in a few minutes.]
[But this time it's a rescue operation, and perhaps there's still a chance to save the elderly.]
[So, we decided to accelerate the cleaning process and try to find and kill the source, the Overlord, as soon as possible.]
After perusing the note, Li Qingming also glanced at his watch.
13:01:11.
It had been an hour and a half since she left this sticky note, and the two elderly had not been completely digested nor had anything hatched.
