I Became an Evolving Space Monster

Chapter 343

The first thing I felt when I woke up was sweetness.

The taste of chocolate so rich that it made my jaw ache filled my mouth.

?There are still left, so eat a lot.?
?Grrrr?
?Big adult??Young compatriot??Similar?
?Grrrr??
?Praise?

The next thing I noticed after the tongue-melting sweetness was that the heads on either side of me were moving.

I slowly opened my eyes.

?Big adult??I’m awake?
?Big baby also eat this?

As soon as I opened my eyes, a lump of black flesh was pushed into my mouth. It was a piece of Vortex One’s flesh that I brought with me before going to sleep.

No. 26 and Adhai were diligently pushing food into my sleeping mouth.

Seeing that there were almost no Vortex One corpses left piled up in the hangar, it seemed like they kept adding them to me even when I was asleep.

‘It reminds me of the old days.’

Even when I fainted after shooting down the Imperial Carrier, they fed me this way. They are the same guys then and now.

‘I guess I should just accept what is given to me.’

When I was fighting it, I had already bitten it several times and even swallowed the core myself. However, at the time, I was so busy fighting that it was difficult to fully enjoy the taste.

I leisurely chewed the ‘ring of agony’ meat the kids gave me.

‘As expected, it’s okay.’

The shell is hard, but the flesh inside is softer than jelly, so the texture of each is very different. If the outside feels like chewing hardened chocolate, the inside is closer to a chocolate fudge cake. The taste is sweet but also has a deep flavor, so you won’t get tired of it even if you eat a lot.

‘Both heads deserve it.’

The heads on the left and right ate meat among themselves even before I got up. Even when I looked at them, the two heads paid no heed and ate the food given to them by No. 26 and Adhai.

Thanks to these guys, I was supplied with enough energy. The injuries sustained during the battle have almost completely recovered, leaving only a few scars.

[Zuzu Zuzuzu (What about the other kids?)]
?I’m staying with my friend’s family because they’re sick. My friend’s family must be very sick.”
“Ugly Friend” “Scale Dwarf” “Together” “Stay”

It appears that PS-111 has not finished tuning in to Isabel. It’s been a day since I fell asleep, but it’s taking longer than expected.

‘It seems like it’s more difficult than making your own body.’

Although the PS-111 created the MPS series, it was just a terminal without any unique thinking ability. Since this is the first time creating a screamer with an independent identity, it seems to be difficult.

‘I handed over Alshas just in case…’

Before going to sleep, I entrusted him with the care of Alshas. He told me that I could do whatever I wanted as long as I didn’t touch his head and kept him alive somehow.

‘The body of a ranker was used in the PS-111 model, the Mutant Screamer.’

To be exact, a clone of 18th ranker Penelope was the material for the Mutant Screamer. Those who designed it are in a position to save as many cold bloods as possible. However, there must be a reason for duplicating the ranker.

‘I don’t think he understood.’

By his standards, there is no difference between a regular cult and Alshas. Also, I don’t know much about the existence of rankers.

However, since he was a guy who was trying his best to understand what I was saying, he calmly accepted Alshas. He would be able to put the ranker’s body to good use.

I plan to start interrogating him when his utility value drops.

‘There’s nothing to do right now, so I’ll have to wait.’

There are quite a few newly acquired characteristics, so I’ll check them out during my break.

I opened a translucent text box while chewing the meat that No. 26 and Aadhai handed me.

?Multidimensional organisms: Bio-plasma synthesis (new!), Hive consciousness terminal (new!)
– Multidimensional organism-related fusion characteristics: Deep space plague (new!)?

?*Incomplete characteristics (8)
Gills, Giant Creature, Natural Healing, Radio Interference, Saw Blade Tentacle, Mimicry, Catfish House, Demon Machine (New!)?

?Some of the evolution conditions for ‘Estellate’ -> ‘Ascension’ have been met.
Essence of Spirit: Vortex One (0.5) (Not achieved)

?’Transcendence’ Material List (New!): Demon Machine, Tyrantroid, Unconfirmed, Unconfirmed, Unconfirmed?

In addition to this, several other characteristics have been acquired, but the most important ones are unlocking new type information and unlocking new unique characteristic synthesis formulas.

The characteristics of the ‘Multidimensional Creature’ series can mainly be obtained when preying on Outspacers and Vortex Ones.

The number of characteristics required to acquire the type is 4. If you get just one more, the type will be in your hands.

‘It would have been better if I had gotten it earlier.’

I’m a little disappointed with the timing of acquiring the trait. Actually, all three are good characteristics, but it is difficult to see them as being very useful at this point.

‘Bioplasma synthesis’ is a characteristic that absorbs external energy such as plasma or psychic power and converts it into bioenergy. It is one of the means to help outspacers who participate in battles fight for a long time.

If it has this trait, it can absorb and use the energy flowing from the ship’s nuclear reactor. It’s not a bad trait, but I have Dragon’s Heart, which is upwardly compatible. Since there are organs that pump energy on their own, the need for them is reduced.

‘Deep space plague. This is good too, but…’

‘Deep Space Plague’, obtained using ‘Space Bacteria’, an infection-related trait, is a trait that applies a random debuff to those who come into contact with it. Because the virus is constantly mutating to adapt to the universe, the debuff effects keep changing.

Because the nature of the virus continues to change, treatment is difficult. So, once I got this trait, I would run straight to the enemy planet’s water source.

If I had acquired this trait before going to Berzan 02, it would have been quite useful. Now that the attack is over and we have left the planet, can we say that the light has faded?

If you ever need to attack a megacorp or cult planet, you can have some fun with this trait.

‘Next is the hive consciousness terminal.’

Contrary to its grandiose name, it is a passive secondary trait.

The effect is to help read conversations between outspacers. They communicate using unique bio-electrical signals, so without this feature or special tools, it is impossible to understand what they are saying.

‘It’s an essential trait if you’re going to fight an outspacer.’

There’s a good chance you’ll run into them again, so it’ll be well worth it if you keep it.

All three are useful, but have limited uses. Of course, it’s better than nothing.

‘Actually, it’s a shame I couldn’t eat this devil machine rather than these.’

I liked the predation effect when I caught the ring of agony, but unfortunately the result was only half-decent.

Perhaps because it is not a complete summoner, the ‘Demon Machine’ is displayed as an incomplete trait, as when a genetic sample was ingested.

Demon Machine is an attribute that allows the use of Vortex One’s unique ability, ‘Power of the Abyss’-related technology. Only by obtaining this characteristic can you eat other Vortex Ones and then use their characteristics.

Just as other intelligent beings, excluding cults, can only use psychic power if they possess a ‘superpower organ’, using the power of Vortex One requires the characteristic of being a demonic machine.

For example, with the Ring of Anguish, you can only use it by possessing a demon machine and feasting on it to gain the ability to manipulate gravity or fire the power of the abyss as characteristics. Otherwise, even if you obtain the characteristic, you cannot use it.

It doesn’t look that good up to this point, but among other races, there is no one other than Coldblood that can use Vortex One’s abilities. In addition, Amorph can be used without cost as long as you acquire the characteristics, so it is much more advantageous from a long-term perspective.

Of course, the probability of obtaining Vortex One’s characteristics is extremely low, but I have a symbol of hunting. If you get the Demon Machine and catch other Vortex Ones, getting the trait won’t be difficult at all.

‘Tsk. It would have been nice to get a demon machine here.’

It’s such a waste, but there’s nothing we can do.

Anyway, I plan on fighting Vortex One again. Because the evolution condition is 0.5, it remains in a strange state of not being achieved. To turn this into an achievement, you must capture and kill the complete Vortex One.

‘I’ve never fought in an incomplete state, so exceptional cases just pop out.’

The last thing left is the part about new unique characteristics.

A new unique attribute combination formula was opened as Demon Machine was the key attribute.

‘The Tyrantroid already exists, and the Demon Machine is only half acquired due to incomplete characteristics.’

Of the remaining ingredients, 3 are marked as ‘unidentified’.

‘…I think I know roughly what goes into it.’

What ‘Tyrantroids’ and demonic machines have in common is that they are ‘normal’ characteristics obtained from Apex creatures. The remaining three characteristics are also likely to be general characteristics obtained from Apex.

‘It’s not a regular Apex either, but a top Apex.’

It didn’t open when I got the Tyrantroid, but it opened after I got the Demon Machine. If you kill Apex at the top, more information may be released.

‘It’s the only characteristic combined with Apex characteristics.’

So far, the unique characteristics created using the transcendence system have been influenced to some extent by the material. I can’t imagine how powerful the result of Apex’s characteristics will be.

If I get information from Isabelle and Alshas, I will consider targeting Apex as my next target.

‘for a moment.’

As I thought about Apex, my mind suddenly wandered to the little monsters in front of me.

‘You both probably ate Vortex One, right?’

No. 26 and Aadhai eagerly put food into my mouth. They must have also consumed the Ring of Anguish, so wouldn’t something have changed?

I closed the text box and asked the kids.

[Zuzuzuzu Zuzuzuzu Zuzuzu (Is it okay if you guys don’t eat?)]
“I ate a lot, a lot!”
“Food” “Too much” “There’s a lot” “I’m full”

Looking at it now, it certainly looks like Aadhai ate more than usual. This is because the guy who used to boast a slim body has a belly that looks like a tail. As usual with No. 26, there was no change in appearance.

‘It looks the same, but…’

In the game, it is almost impossible for Sea Demons and Gallagons to eat Vortex One. Because the environments they live in are different in the first place, they never encounter each other.

The only exceptions are when events coincidentally overlap and Red Gallagon and Vortex One appear at the same time, and when Coldblood summons Vortex One during the Sea Demon and Gallagon raids.

Even if there is a low probability of an encounter, it is Vortex One who usually wins. I’ve only seen one instance where a fully-powered Red Gallagon fought a Vortex One, and that time it was a draw.

In other words, No. 26 and Aadhai are the first Sea Demons and Gallagons to catch and kill a cosmic demon and eat its meat.

[Zuzu zuzuzu zuzu (Has anything changed in either of you?)]

There is no change in appearance, but you never know. When I asked for details, No. 26 and Adhai responded as if they had been waiting.

“me! Something has changed in me!?
“Me too!” “Me too!”
[Zuzuzu zuzuz (Something has changed?)]
“Yes! I’ll show!”

After saying that, No. 26 bounced and walked away from me. As the distance increased, its body began to grow.

‘Battle mode?’

When it enters battle, it turns into a giant pink jellyfish with numerous eyes all over its body. But what he looked like now was different from what I knew.

The body changed from an inflated balloon to a hemispherical body lying on top of a ring, with long fins and tentacles extending from the center of the ring.

The fins were the same, but the appearance of the tentacles was quite different from before. Small tentacles stretched out like branches at the end, resembling human arms.

Moreover, the change was not only in appearance.

‘You’re flying?’

The guy who changed into a new form was floating in the air. Seeing that I couldn’t feel any psychic power, it seemed like he was floating by a principle I couldn’t understand.

It’s like a ring of agony.
