I Became an Evolving Space Monster

Chapter 324

‘ask?’
“…what do you want? “If there is anything I, or we, can listen to, I will listen.”

The Heavenly Mother asked, but Isabel shook her head.

“Promise me you’ll listen first. “I’ll tell you what I’m asking you to do later.”

With those words, Isabel closed her mouth.

It seemed like he had no intention of opening his mouth until we said we would comply.

‘From what you say, it seems like you know quite a bit.’

It doesn’t seem like he was bluffing to get out of an unfavorable situation. If I had meant to do that, I would have lied or taken a different attitude.

‘Looking at the body’s reaction, it’s unlikely to be a lie.’

Auxiliary organs in each head are monitoring Isabelle’s every movement. Eye movements, heart beats, breathing beats, muscle tremors, etc. flow through the air to the end of the accessory organ under the jaw.

Reactions when nervous or embarrassed are not detected. Except the muscles on my leg are shaking because my toe was cut off.

Unless he is a terrible liar, it is certain that he at least knows something about fantasy.

‘Let’s talk more.’

I moved my four legs and stood next to Heavenly Mother. She, who had been in a daze, was shocked by what Isabel said.

“I never thought they would make a counter-offer. “That’s surprising.”
“It’s even more surprising that Moffak chose ‘conversation’.”
“No more nonsense. “I want to ask you something.”

A sharp response came back, but I ignored it and immediately brought up the business.

“You said you would pass on what you know if you did me a favor, right?”
“okay.”
“Is there any guarantee that you won’t lie after this is over?”

Aside from everything else, the biggest question is whether Isabel will tell us the truth. What if he lies or intentionally omits important information? It’s all a loss to me.

When Isabel heard what I said, she twitched her antennae as if she was displeased.

“Don’t look at me the same as you.”
“I can’t grant you a favor without being sure you’ll tell me the truth.”
“If you don’t believe me, quit.”
?Isabel!?

The Heavenly Mother fired a thought wave to tell her to stop, but Isabelle paid no attention.

“If it doesn’t work out through dialogue, we have no choice but to choose another method.”
“Do you think I’m here with no means of getting out?”

Of course not.

We already know that he is hiding his abilities. The power of Vortex One, which can be said to be Coldblood’s true ability, remains because of the perks received by players who came to this world.

It is unclear what abilities and privileges he has, but at least he will be at a level that will help him overcome the current crisis. If it weren’t for that, I wouldn’t be alive until now.

But that goes for me too.

I am also hiding my strength. I have no intention of sending him off gracefully.

The other person holds the information I need in their hands. At this point, the surest way to obtain that knowledge is to eat Isabelle and turn her into a human insect. If you catch him, you won’t be persuading him with words like you are now, but with your teeth.

‘The problem is that the risk factors are high….’

If you fight with Isabel and the cults get involved, it will be a pain. The cult rankers currently on this planet probably think I’m dead. If he realizes that I am alive, he will try to kill me at any cost. In that case, you will have to fight Cult Ranker and Isabelle at the same time.

‘Still, if you look at priorities, it’s more important to get your hands on him.’

The reason I came to Berzan 02 in the first place was to get information from Isabel. Now that I’ve found him, it’s safe to say that half of my goal has been achieved. If I fight here, my existence will be exposed to the cult, but it’s better than losing Eoyeongbuyeong like this.

“hang on.”

Just as I was about to make a decision, Heavenly Mother intervened.

“The problem is that Isabel can lie. Right??
[Z(Yes)]
“That’s right.”
“Then there is a way to solve this.”

She took a few steps in front of me and stood between me and Isabelle.

“Isabel, give me the contract for Vortex One. “I will pay the price for violation.”
“What?”
[Z(What?)]

Isabel’s eyes twitched at her old friend’s sudden words. Perhaps because he was quite agitated, his heartbeat began to shake significantly for the first time.

I was also surprised by what Heavenly Mother said.

Vortex One, nicknamed the Devil of the Universe.

As their nickname suggests, all of their activities are carried out through contracts. It is all thanks to the contract that Coldblood can use the power of Vortex One.

Depending on which Vortex One’s power you borrow, you can use abilities with completely different effects, such as strengthening yourself or destroying something with tremendous power.

It goes without saying that the stronger the borrowed ability, the greater the price required. The risk of not being able to pay the price also increases.

The price of the contract varies greatly depending on the severity and type of power borrowed, but the risks in case of violation are completely different. This is because not only does it cause death, but it also causes permanent damage to the player.

Here, Coldblood has one way to minimize the risk of not completing a contract due to its racial characteristics.

It’s about using sacrifices. Damage can be minimized if the risk that must be incurred in case of contract violation is transferred to the victim.

Of course, if the unpaid price continues to pile up, the offering becomes useless, but that is not what is important now.

No matter how light a contract is, the risks are very severe. There is no way the Mother of Heaven does not know that.

Even though he knew this, he declared that he would take responsibility if Isabelle lied.

“If I lie, you will die.”
“Then you don’t have to lie.”
“Why are you doing such a useless thing now?”
“I think it would be more useless for you two to fight here.”
“….”

Isabel closed her mouth at those words. Sky’s mother takes her eyes off him and looks back at me.

There was no sign of any wavering in the beautiful amber eyes. She had already made up her mind.

“If this is true, Amorph, you can believe it too, right?”
[Z (Yes)]

I briefly agreed.

I didn’t agree because I thought it was okay for her to die.

As I came this far, Heavenly Mother became an important companion to me. Even if she is less important than No. 26 or Aadhai, who are considered family, she is also precious.

Nevertheless, the reason I agreed was because Isabelle’s reaction was quite intense. The guy who seemed detached from all relationships was greatly shaken when Heavenly Mother said she would risk her life.

What this means is that the affection for an old friend still remains. The fact that he didn’t agree right away shows that his feelings are not small at all.

“…good.”

After contemplating for a few minutes, Isabel sighed briefly and agreed to the conditions laid down by the Heavenly Mother.

The guy took out an object that looked similar to a shield creation device from his old clothes. If the shield creation device was in the form of a hexagonal plate, this object was a pentagonal plate.

‘It’s an energy blocking device.’

When signing a contract with Vortex One, energy is unconditionally generated. Even if it’s just a small contract that prohibits lying. The energy that can be blocked with an energy blocking device is extremely limited, but in this case, it is helpful enough. Even with that small tool, you can prevent energy leakage.

‘There’s one more thing I’ve learned now.’

He doesn’t get along with the cult ranker in Berzan 02. There may be some kind of relationship that I don’t know about, but at least it’s not a relationship where we can maintain an overtly friendly relationship. That’s probably why he carries an energy blocking device.

While he was thinking that, he turned on the energy blocking device and made a contract with the Mother of Heaven. A black light flashed slightly inside the barrier, but no energy leaked out.

“it’s over.”

After completing the contract in less than a minute, Isabel lifted the barrier. Heaven’s mother was fine except that her fur had receded and she looked listless.

“Now tell me what you want.”
“okay. Follow me.”

Isabelle said as she picked up the grocery basket she had left in the corner.

“Follow you?”
“It’s a safe place. “Now that we have signed a contract, I have no intention of harming you.”

He can’t lie until the deal is over. When I looked at Heavenly Mother to see if she would be okay, she nodded.

We followed Isabelle out of the alley.

The guy only moved to areas that were within the watchtower’s blind spot. Seeing as there was no hesitation, it seemed like he had walked around like this several times.

Then the place he stopped was an old warehouse. Isabel manipulated the old terminal to disarm the barrier blocking the entrance.

The first thing I saw when I went inside was the miscellaneous trash strewn everywhere. Beneath the mess of miscellaneous items there was a floor covered in dust.

‘huh?’

On the outside, it seemed like it had been untouched by outsiders for a long time, but Eimov’s auxiliary organs could not be fooled. It feels like someone deliberately sprinkled fine sand to hide their footprints.

And some of the floors were just the same on the outside, but the materials were completely different. You can hear the sound of the wind moving between floors made of different materials.

‘There’s an empty space under the warehouse.’

As expected, Isabel traced a specific pattern with her foot on the floor made of different materials. The floor disappeared with a clatter, revealing the stairs leading to the basement.

“Isabel, what on earth did you do?”
“I did something my sister didn’t do.”

The guy who said something incomprehensible went down the stairs.

[Zuzzuzu (let’s follow)]

We also followed Isabel down to the basement. There was not even a common light on the way down to the basement. The stairs themselves were so crude that it could not be said that they were made by a cult.

Only after going down the long stairs and reaching the basement did I understand why the stairs were shaped like that.

And what Isabel meant when she spoke to her heavenly mother.

Numerous signs can be felt in the darkness of the basement. Dozens of Coldbloods were kneeling and praying.

Isabel said as she looked at them praying to an unknown person.

?Isabel, you….?
“Help me move them to a safe planet. “That is my request.”

Coldblood wanders in search of a lost paradise and salvation.

Isabel was the underground messiah who guided them.
