The Gu poison had consumed the entirety of Rui's body.
It had consumed every organ.
Every cell.
Everything.
His skin was a sickening black, melting into the darkness of the Gu.
His breathing was ragged and labored.
Choked.
His heartbeat had weakened.
It beat unsteadily.
Uncertainly.
Death had claimed him.
Death had claimed Amare.
Death was absolute.
"Then… I will adaptively evolve to death itself."
His tone was maddened.
Heretical.
It was an oath.
An oath that had emerged from the very depths of his soul.
An oath he would fulfill no matter what.
Even at the cost of his own life.
His eyes were were singularities of intensity as blood-red Suns shined with blinding brightness within their depths. His Body, Heart, and Mind surged with endless determination with the one and only one intention.
Adaptively evolving to everything that stood in his way.
The Gu poison was the most powerful force that he had ever confronted in his entire life.
