I Became an Evolving Space Monster

Chapter 323

An alley located between old buildings.

Isabel approaches me in one leap. The curved sword in my hand flies toward my head with the agility of a wild beast on the hunt.

I kicked the ground with all four legs, pulled my upper body back, and swung my two tails at the same time. While targeting the curved sword with the pincer attached to the end of the right tail, it aimed at the enemy’s wrist with the left tail without the ‘Black Devourer Cannon’.

Because of the ‘clever weakling’ status, the size of the claw has been reduced, but it is still much larger than the curved sword that Isabel is holding.

‘I don’t know how much cutting power the curved blade has, but the size difference cannot be ignored.’

The width of the curved sword blade is at most about two finger joints. If the two collide, it will be difficult to avoid damage on the other side.

The hand holding the curved sword took a sharp turn, as if the other person was thinking the same thing. The sharp blade swept across the rough surface of the tongs, making an eerie cracking sound.

Meanwhile, my left tail moved to wrap around the opponent’s arms like a snake that had caught its prey. Just as the tip of the tail was about to touch the opponent’s wrist, Isabel’s waist bent into a bizarre shape. In the air, his ankle rose to almost the same position as his wrist and he kicked the tip of my tail.

The two tails’ attack ended in failure. She took a step back using the kick of her tail.

However, I also predicted that it would be difficult to inflict a meaningful hit with the tail. I kicked the floor with all four legs.

“Tch!”

A clicking sound is heard from the enemy who has just landed on the ground. The guy rolled to the side to avoid me charging at him like a bull. He kicked her with her hind legs as if talking to a horse, but she avoided it with her agile movements.

Not only that, but he climbed on my back like an insect or a lizard clinging to a wall.

‘Where.’

On my back, covered in shaggy fur, there is a nest of insects hiding. The insects that received my command prepared paralyzing sound waves from inside their fur.

Just as the five man-eating bugs were about to spit out deadly sound waves, Isabel took out another tool. He threw a tool that looked like a small hexagonal plate into my fur, then jumped off my back.

An intense noise like a scream spreads through the air from the Inmyeonchung. But that sound never reached him.

This is because a shield was formed from the hexagonal plate he threw and covered my entire body. The sound waves of the Inmyeonchung were blocked by an intangible barrier and disappeared in vain.

The tool he threw was a device that creates a psychic shield. It was thrown above me to block the sonic attack.

I smashed the shield with the claw attached to my right tail and broke it. A curved sword flew in through a gap in the protective shield that was torn like a piece of paper.

‘I knew so.’

I didn’t dodge his attack.

As expected, the curved sword stuck in the horn of my head. The thin blade was stuck in the horn, creating a momentary gap from the creature.

Now that he’s so close to me, it’s time for the heads on both sides to come into play. The head on the left, which was close to the guy, opened its mouth wide.

“!”

The guy’s eyes widen as if he didn’t know that the heads on both sides would move. She ultimately chose to throw away the curved sword. My teeth barely grazed its scaly arm.

While the left head was moving, the waiting right head rained a pile of rot-inducing fungus at it. It would hurt quite a bit if he got hit, but he brought it on himself.

The guy quickly rolled over to avoid the flying fungus. Still, I couldn’t completely avoid it this time, so I got a little bit of it on the tip of my toe.

“Tsk!”

The guy mercilessly cut off his toes with his fingernails. My toes, stained black with mold, were rolling around on the floor.

‘It’s pretty good.’

The fight went into a brief lull because the guy cut off his toe and took a long step back.

I lowered my head in the middle and pulled out the curved sword embedded in the horn with my small arm near my chest.

‘Is this your first weapon?’

I thought it was a super vibration weapon of the same type as Sonic Blade, but it wasn’t. It was just a simple curved sword without any buttons or mechanical devices.

‘It’s sharpness and durability are terrifying.’

I don’t know what metal it’s made of, but it has considerable durability. Like the claws on my tail, the horns on my head are strong. I had no idea that no matter how good the cutting power of the weapon was, it would collide with my horns and tongs without causing any damage.

‘I have to be careful because there are things I don’t know about.’

I threw the curved sword behind me and stared at Isabelle, the 22nd ranked ranker.

There is no need to worry much about damaged horns themselves. It will play soon anyway.

The problem is that they are not showing their true skills.

‘Which Vortex One’s power did they borrow?’

If the core of Aimorph is how to acquire and use its characteristics, the core of Cold Blood play is the relationship with Vortex One.

Coldblood, whose entire race’s life has been mortgaged by Vortex One, has a greatly different fighting style depending on which entity it borrows power from.

Some increase hand-to-hand combat capabilities to the limit, while others grant powerful psychic power abilities. As long as you pay the price of the contract, you can use the power of the highest level being in Apex at will.

However, this is cult territory. Just like me, it’s difficult for him to use his power carelessly.

By the way, the cult absolutely hates Vortex One. That’s why Coldblood is despised.

If Vortex One’s power is used here, all of Berzan 02’s military power will be concentrated on him.

‘Or there may be other intentions that I don’t know about.’

Since he knows my notoriety, there is a possibility that he hid it on purpose. Not only Vortex One’s power but also its unique perks were not used. Just as this side did not show its cards, the same goes for that side.

‘Compete a little more….’
?Wait! “Both of you wait!”

I was about to move again when the Heavenly Mother stepped in between me and Isabelle.

“I’m sorry, but give me a chance!”
[Zuzuzuzu Zuzuzuzuzu Zuzu Zuzuzuzu Zuzuzuzuzu (If they attack from over there, I would have said I would respond, right?)]
“I told you I would give you time to talk before that!”

She even pulled out her agate-colored wings, which had been hidden by tattoos, and looked at me earnestly. I can see the desperation in her eyes.

‘Conversation.’

I looked around with my assistive device, keeping my eyes on her and Isabelle. I already checked when chasing Isabelle, but this is a blind spot where the watchtower’s line of sight cannot reach. Unless there is a big fight, there is a low chance of being caught by a warrior group, but that does not mean there is no risk.

‘It’s true that fighting here is not a good idea.’

Aside from the possibility of being caught by a cult, this is the place where he lured us. Since it is no different from their home ground, there is no way to know what will happen during the fight.

‘Right now, it’s better to build a positive relationship than to try to subdue Isabel.’

Currently, the ‘parasitic colony’ is sealed because of Sihyeon Eugene’s relic weapon. If you want to omit the information you want, the only way to do it is to make it a personal rumor.

This isn’t necessarily a bad thing since eating Isabelle can rob you of a perk, but the problem is the process of getting there. Not only did he not see the ending, he was also a ranker with the title of 22nd place. He is by no means an easy opponent.

‘But while you’re talking, you have the opportunity to explore.’

While Heavenly Mother takes her time, you can get information about Isabel and her surroundings. You might get a clue about his weaknesses from the conversation. Giving her another chance is a pretty good option.

[Zuzu (Okay)]
“Thank you.”

She nodded with gratitude.

I took a few steps back to watch their conversation.

I didn’t pay much attention to Isabelle’s appearance because I got into a fight right away after meeting her, but now I was able to take a good look at Isabelle’s appearance.

It had the appearance of a typical Coldblood, with a head that was a mixture of a lizard and a human face, antennae on the head, and scales covering the entire body. The scales of the body were bright blue, and only the snout was a pale sky blue. As I had already heard, her height was quite short, and her arms and legs were thin, giving an overall impression of frailty.

Instead of the hotel maid’s uniform for hospitality, she was wearing old cloth clothes. Looking at his clearly exposed arms, thighs, and abdomen, it did not seem like he was hiding any other weapons.

‘Coldblood is not a race that relies on weapons.’

A fragile-looking body, short stature, and shabby clothes.

Looking at it again, he looks like a pitiful slave, but it’s all a trick. Considering what he showed in the exploration battle, this is an opponent you should never let down your guard against.

I did not lose sight of the strings of vigilance and focused on surveillance as an auxiliary agency.

“Just in case it’s not Morph Park, you’re doing the same things here that you do in the game.”
“no. “Isabel.”

Isabelle, like me, was giving all her attention to me. Although I was talking to my heavenly mother, my eyes were only fixed on me.

“He saved me from almost dying.”
“He saved me? Morph Park?”
“It may be hard to believe, but it’s true. No parasites were planted. “I’m not in a relationship where I’m being dominated by him, but I’m with him as a colleague.”
“….”

Isabel was taken aback by what Heavenly Mother said.

‘Strictly speaking, half of it is a lie.’

The reason I originally saved her was to use her as insurance. That’s why I planted parasites.

Of course, Isabel does not know the inside story and has no need to know.

“…Then why did you come here?”

The guy who had been silent, perhaps because he heard something unexpected, opened his mouth again.

“I came because I have something to ask you.”
“Ask something?”
“huh. As Aimov and I grew up, we saw illusions about reality. “I’m investigating the meaning of that illusion.”
“Illusion….”

The moment she heard the word ‘fantasy’, Isabel’s eyes for the first time turned not to me but to her heavenly mother.

“Have you seen ‘Memories’ too?”
“memory? “Did you also see a vision of your time as a human?”

Instead of answering her question, Isabel asked the question back.

“What choice did you make in the face of your memories?”
?Me??
“Did you get eaten by the memory? Or did you swallow your memories?”
“Neither. “I only glimpsed memories.”

After hearing her answer, Isabel’s eyes turned to me again. It seemed like he wanted to ask me what choice I made, but I stayed silent.

“That guy is similar to me. “I only glimpsed the memories.”

To be precise, I only fought and won against the ‘real me’ embodied in fantasy, but did not kill it. According to Isabelle’s expression, it would be said that the illusion did not work or did not eat.

Heavenly Mother knows this too, but I think she intentionally brushed it off because she didn’t know how Isabel would react.

“We want to hear about what choice you made.”
“….”

Isabel watched us in silence and then closed her eyes.

After a while, the guy opened his eyes and opened his mouth.

“Seo-ah. “Do you remember how long we haven’t been in touch with each other?”
“It’s been a little more than 8 years.”
“8 years and 2 months. “A lot has happened since you left.”
?Isabel??

When I looked again, I felt no emotion in the reptile’s eyes. There was no longing shown when she saw her heavenly mother, nor was there any anger shown when she fought with me.

She took a small breath as she met eyes full of emptiness.

“They trampled all my friends and the home we built.”
?!?

Isabel said it in passing, but the Mother of Heaven seemed to understand what it meant. I can feel her heartbeat getting stronger.

“don’t mind. “Too much time has passed now to blame anyone.”
?….?
“I’ll give you the answer you want. Instead, please listen to my request first.”

Eyes resembling burned ashes spoke to us.
