I Became an Evolving Space Monster

Chapter 338

Among the NPCs in Space Survival, what is the single entity with the strongest power?

Most players choose the ultra-powerful Apex creatures that appear as raid bosses. Red Gallagon, who united all Gallagons, Vortex One, whose psychic power was taken away by Outspacer, Sea Demon, who lives on an ocean-type planet, Arcane Orca, who lives on a giant gas planet, etc.

They are very difficult to deal with due to the environment that is difficult for players to conquer and the individual specifications.

So, let’s change the question.

What species has the most power?

In the case of this question, the answer tends to be unified.

A being with many nicknames, including space demon and abyss dweller.

Vortex One.

However, due to the setting, there are some aspects that make it difficult to view the Vortex Ones, who came from another universe, as a single race. This is because their appearance, strength, and habits are all different.

However, Vortex One is the only entity whose body is made up of an unidentified energy called the ‘Power of the Abyss’, so it is only a matter of uniting them.

Beings classified as Vortex Ones all show the strength of the highest level of Apex. Even the weakest entity has a power that far surpasses that of Black Gallagon.

In addition, the things you need to pay attention to are very different for each individual, so if you attack without knowing, you will most likely end up in big trouble.

I have fought against Vortex One before and been defeated several times. Even though it was an adult and possessed many unique characteristics.

One of those dangerous beings appeared before me.

Even though it was cut in half, it was a huge black ring that was about 1.5 times bigger than me in the ‘bone beast’ state. The ‘Ring of Agony’ that had just appeared was floating in the sky without moving.

‘…I guess I should be glad that it wasn’t a masquerade.’

After watching Isabel’s summoning ritual, there were two Vortex One candidates I expected.

The more dangerous of these is the one called ‘Masquerade’.

It’s a Vortex One that specializes in mind control, so it’s very difficult to deal with. Because he’s the one who uses the only trait I have, ‘Herald of Chaos’, on a planetary basis.

The chain of agony is weaker than that of the masquerade. Additionally, since it was summoned incompletely, it would not be able to fully demonstrate its original power.

‘But it’s not that easy.’

There are two main things to keep in mind when dealing with the Ring of Anguish. Numerous arms attached to the surface of the ring, and the ring itself.

Each and every one of those countless arms is his weapon. Depending on how that arm moves, its attack or movement changes.

The next thing to be careful of is the ring, but fortunately it is now broken and only half is left, so I don’t think you need to worry too much.

‘Originally, the energy cannon was fired through that ring.’

It can collect energy and fire it by rotating the ring at high speed.

Its power is powerful enough to easily split a planet. It is very threatening because it nullifies most defensive abilities, with a few exceptions such as Red Armor. So, when catching him in the game, you had to catch him before the ring started spinning.

‘Thank goodness there is no time limit here….’

At that time, the ring of agony that had been floating still in the sky began to move.

“Big baby, big baby. Look over there.?
[Zuzuzu (Be careful)]

No. 26 and I prepared for the upcoming attack.

One guy’s movements were different from what I expected. The arms on the surface of the ring were clasped together and stretched downward.

‘what?’

That posture taken by the arms of the ring is usually shown when moving very quickly.

As I thought, the altitude of the entire ring rose sharply. As a result, the size of the huge aircraft rapidly decreases.

‘Where are we going?’

Of course I thought they would attack me first, but I was surprised.

If you see yourself moving upwards after assuming a moving posture, the target is not a being on this earth. It is targeting beings outside the atmosphere, that is, in space outside the planet.

‘There’s something outside the planet… wait a minute.’

For a moment, I am reminded of the scene I saw earlier.

Isabel was performing the summoning ritual and Alshas was looking at it with fearful eyes. After seeing that, I guessed that it wasn’t a summons he ordered. There is no way Alshas can defeat Vortex One, which is too much for me to deal with right now.

But looking at the current situation, I think I misjudged.

Alshas did not react that way because Isabelle behaved unexpectedly.

‘Instead of sacrificing her life, Isabel asked to kill Alshas.’

So why bother bringing in such a dangerous monster?

‘It must be because of Alshas’s privileges.’

It can create identical copies of itself. I actually tried eating meat, but there was little difference from other cults. In other words, even for Amorphs with transcendental senses, it is difficult to tell whether they are clones or not.

But with Vortex One, it’s a different story.

As can be seen from their appearance, their cognitive abilities transcend the general laws of physics. No matter how far away the goal is, it is clearly recognized. No matter how good your concealment techniques are, or whether you hide in a completely protected, enclosed facility, you can’t escape from this guy.

This is probably what Isabel was aiming for. If you’re a Vortex One, you won’t be fooled by copies and will follow the original.

‘Should I say I’m glad we didn’t fight right away?’

While I was lost in thought, he had already gone far away and was out of sight. You won’t attack me until you achieve your goal.

‘But I can’t leave it like this.’

If you allow Alshas to die from the Ring of Anguish, you will be wasting the privilege of creating a duplicate. Honestly, it’s a very coveted privilege, so I want to get my hands on it somehow.

‘Plus, there’s information.’

Since I gambled with Isabel, I also need to get insurance. Alshas, who seems to have lived in this world for quite some time, would be a useful source of information.

So, you have to catch him before Vortex One.

‘If you follow him, you’ll quickly find where the original is, so that’s not a problem.’

The real problem is when you kill Alshas, or when you interfere with him trying to kill Alshas. The cosmic devil never forgives those who disturb him.

‘If I fight here, can I win?’

If it were a game, of course it wouldn’t work, but things are a little different now.

Because it was summoned incompletely, its most powerful means of attack was sealed. It is unlikely that you will die from an unexpected blow. If you want to catch him, now is your chance.

‘Then what about mine?’

By game standards, I’m not ready to attack Vortex One yet. Rot fungus or acidic breath cannot damage it at all, and it is difficult to critically hit it with the ‘Medusa Organ’.

Although hand-to-hand combat is not easy, Ring of Agony is also excellent at close combat. The arms on the hook are by no means decorative.

‘but.’

There are important variables for me now.

Unique characteristics created through the transcendence system.

The characteristics belonging to the ‘space monster’ type did not exist in the game. If you use these characteristics, you will be able to gain the upper hand in a fight.

‘And there are other kids.’

In the game, I did all the preparations and hunting for Vortex One by myself.

But I have colleagues here who help me. Sea Demon No. 26, Red Gallagon Adhai, and even the Ranker Sky Mother.

If I use all the power I have, I have a good chance of winning.

‘good.’
[Zuzu zuzuzuzu (I’m going to catch him)]
?It’s big
and dangerous
. ‘
It will become stronger)]
“It’s good to eat delicious food with your eldest baby!” It’s good to become stronger!”

Number 26 on his back pulls out his tentacles and shakes them as if shouting “fighting.”

‘I don’t know if that’s really true.’

In fact, I have never seen a Sea Demon eat a Vortex One. So, I don’t know what will happen if I eat the body of the ring of agony.

‘I’ll find out more details later.’

I spread my wings wide and floated on the sand.

Before following the circle of agony, I must first bring the children from that water fortress.

–

Captain Alshas, who commands the defenders of Berzan 02.

There was one thing about her that made her different from others.

In the real world, she was a natural actress.

Besides, her beauty wasn’t bad. No, to be exact, her appearance was such that nine times out of ten, people would feel that she was beautiful when they saw her.

Appearance and acting skills.

She realized early on that if she utilized these two talents appropriately, things in the world would become easier.

Look good in front of a man with a lot of money, and act in front of a person with whom you need to maintain a long-term relationship.

She did not feel any guilt in defrauding others and was living a fairly successful life before coming to this world.

She worked at a famous financial company and was trusted by her colleagues, and her fiancé, whom she was planning to marry, was a successful businessman.

Behind that success were countless people who were deceived by her. They were captivated by her beautiful and sociable charm and were abandoned after being devoured the sweet water. Among the victims were friends, lovers, customers and even co-workers.

However, as an excellent actress, she hid this fact very well. No one knew that beneath the enchanting flowers, disgusting filth was seething.

Anyway, her life was smooth. Unless you fell into the world of space survival the day before the wedding.

This world was completely different from the one she lived in.

The cult race has many beautiful women by human standards. There are cults all over the place that are much more beautiful than hers.

His acting skills also failed to shine. In a class-based society where class and occupation were determined based on the appearance of the horn, the position she could rise to was determined. Moreover, because he is a soldier, it is an added bonus that his life is constantly threatened.

The world of space survival in Alshas’s eyes was hell.

Although I have lived in this world for nearly decades, my thirst for success has not subsided. Even though he made great achievements, he was only able to become captain of the Imperial Carrier because of his horns.

That was why Alshas agreed with those who aimed to return. If you return to the original world, your unfulfilled aspirations will be resolved.

And now, there is not much time left until the great lineage of the returning faction is completed. If she succeeds, her dream will soon be fulfilled.

That’s what I thought.

“shit! shit! shit!”

Alshas, who was piloting the small airship, was constantly swearing.

I have never experienced a crisis this big before. It was a worse crisis than when I almost died due to the Outspacer invasion when I had just arrived in this world.

Back then, there was someone like Captain Nern who could help her, but now there isn’t one at all.

After the clone disappeared, she immediately left the surveillance office’s situation room.

Isabel asked Vortex One to kill her by pinpointing her. Unless the elite fleet or the Outspacer Corps remain, it would be difficult to catch him with just the forces currently at the Observatory.

‘It’s difficult with only the remaining imperial carriers!’

The Imperial Carrier’s firepower is among the top five of all Cult ships, but there is a problem. Once you pour in your firepower, you can’t do anything.

Because the Cosmic Bolt is a delicate organ, it has a very long rest period after firing once. This is true even if the power is reduced as in a fleet battle.

So, a fleet was needed to support the mother ship, but all of it was blown away because of Aimorph. This difficulty cannot be solved with the remaining ships of the carrier battle group.

‘Plus, a masquerade! If the masquerade comes on, I’m done!’

As the name suggests, the Vortex One Masquerade can turn anyone into a clown. All creatures that come into contact with the wavelength it emits fall into a state of madness that makes it impossible to identify them as friend or foe.

Looking at this alone, you might think that you can just avoid it, but the problem is that it is very difficult.

Even if she is lucky enough to not fall into madness, the crisis is not over. Because there are other crew members left. Everyone around the Surveillance Office, the Imperial Mothership, and Berzan 02 will rush to catch her.

‘I can’t die here!’

The airship crossed the interior of the surveillance office at incredible speed. In an instant, she arrived at the exit outside the surveillance office.

?Entry to this place is currently prohibited.?
“I am Alshas, the captain of ‘Defender of Berzan 02’! “Open the door right now!”
“yes? “Just wait a moment…”
“Damn it! “I can’t open the door quickly!”

The moment she screamed into the communication device inside the airship, a loud siren was suddenly heard outside.

“Unidentified entity approaching! “Unidentified entity approaching!”
“Wow, it’s here! “It’s here!”

The loud warning sounds were intermittently mixed with pounding explosions. It is the sound of the main guns of the ships guarding the surveillance office and the fortress guns mounted outside the facility spouting fire.

‘I can’t go out!’

A terrifying cosmic demon is closing in to kill her. If you leave here, you will be killed immediately.

She had no choice but to turn the airship around.

‘Please, if a miracle happens…!’

How happy I would be if an unknown ranker at the Surveillance Office took care of that Vortex One. It was truly a ridiculous imagination, but she was that desperate right now.

Even as the airship wandered, the sirens and explosions did not stop.

Rather, the entire surveillance building was now shaking. The control tower where the situation room was located shook, and various debris fell from the ceiling.

Contrary to her expectations, he is getting closer very quickly.

And within a few minutes, the lights inside the surveillance office went out. Emergency power was turned on and a red light illuminated the entire structure.

In what seemed like a sea of blood, only the airship on which Alshas was floating was alone.

‘…Communication! okay! If you contact the Empress, she will come to your rescue!’

She got up from the passenger seat and quickly picked up the communication tombstone. The Empress already knows that she is important within the Returning Sect. If they were people who valued useful people, they would definitely come to her rescue.

Just as she was about to pull out the wires inside the airship and connect them to the monument, a huge shock hit the surveillance office and her airship.

“W-what is it?”

Startled, she looked out the windshield of the airship.

There was a ‘devil’ there.

The outer wall of the surveillance office collapsed, creating a huge ring with tens or hundreds of thousands of arms hanging from it.

‘A ring of agony!’

The Vortex One, which was tearing through the outer wall with its numerous arms, was something she knew. It’s better than the Masquerade, but it doesn’t make much of a difference in that she’s not a monster worth dealing with.

Alshas hurriedly returned to the passenger seat and took the control. Accelerating the airship rapidly, she tried to escape behind the black ring.

But the cosmic demon had no intention of letting her go. Some of the numerous arms moved nimbly and grabbed the airship.

“Hey, let go of this! “Let go of this!”

In panic, she grabbed the steering wheel and screamed. The dignity of an imperial carrier captain well versed in psychic powers was nowhere to be seen in that appearance.

Another arm moves leisurely. A hand as big as an airship covered the windshield. Inside the palm was a mouth shaped like a whirlpool.

Soon that mouth will swallow her airship whole.

That’s when I thought so.

Gori’s body twitched and trembled. Something appeared behind the torn exterior wall, holding the ring tightly.

?Grrrr?
?Grrrrr?
?Grrrrr?

Then, a familiar cry was heard, and the ring of agony began to be dragged out of the surveillance office. She, caught by the devil’s hand, was also dragged into the black sea.

Her life was extended thanks to a savior who suddenly appeared, but she was not happy at all.

This is because I know who that being as large as Vortex One is.

The infamous 5th ranker, Eimov.

A monster as fearsome as the devil reached out to capture her.

A word from the author (author review) Please take care of zakuti.

As I announced, I have contracted coronavirus.

I feel like I’m feeling a little better after sleeping for a while, so I’m posting this right now.

“I’ll take a day off tomorrow, and if I’m feeling better, I’ll resume normal serialization on Thursday. See the next episode.”
