I Became an Evolving Space Monster

Chapter 380



Chapter 380

“Megacorp officially designated colony LV-06. Are you thinking of going here?”
[Zuzuzu Zuzuzu Zuzuzu Zuzu Zuzuzu Zuzuzu (Yes, to go to the genetic research center attached to the colony)]
“A genetic research center. “It gets me interested.”

PS-111 blinked its eyes made of camera lenses in front of a hologram device made from ship materials. I seemed to like where I was going next.

‘It’s worth it.’

Megacorp constantly improves the inhabitants of each colony according to their purposes.

For example, the inhabitants of human resource production planets are conditioned to be more sexually active. In the case of humans used as material for Hulk mutants, they are produced with high violence and low intelligence.

The genetic research facility is responsible for designing the genes of the residents to suit the colony’s purposes. As a result, genetic samples from various species are stored.

From PS-111’s perspective, this is the first time they have encountered a large number of genetic samples since the Screamer support ship of Pyrrha Eleven, the highest member of the Star Union.

You can’t help but like it because it’s a golden opportunity to upgrade your body.

‘Because it’s not the solar system, there won’t be genetic samples that are difficult to obtain.’

If you go to the Megacorp database on the moon, you may be able to obtain samples of Apex organisms, but it is unreasonable to expect that from an ordinary colony research base. The focus should be on quantity and diversity rather than quality.

“If it’s a Colonial Studies Center, can we get additional ‘Revenant Institutes’?”

The Heavenly Mother who came up from underground asked me.

Thanks to the ‘Double Helix Monolith’ obtained as a space monster type level 2 reward, I was able to transplant up to 2 traits to her and the kids.

The characteristics she wants are ‘Revenant Agency’ and ‘Superior Homeostasis’. The latter of these was able to be transplanted safely thanks to catching a few more Pyromancers before the pirates arrived.

Thanks to the ‘Fountain of Life’ characteristic of the phantom beast ‘Thunderbird’ as well as superior homeostasis, her survival ability has increased dramatically. Unless your head and heart are destroyed like mine, you won’t die instantly.

‘Getting the Revenant Organization here will be the icing on the cake.’

Of course, it is unclear whether it will be possible to secure the Revenant Organization by going to LV-06.

[Zuzu zuzuzu zuzu zuzu zuzuzu zuzu zuzuzu zuzuzu (I guess I’ll have to go there to find out. This is a place I’ve never been to)]
?Well, I don’t think I’ve ever seen that planet in a game either.?

She nodded, looking at the holographic map.

‘The destination has been decided. Then how should I go?’

It would be nice to fly at faster than light speed like we always do, but this time things are a little different.

Because of the new friend at my feet.

‘It’s difficult to move with a mountain crawler.’

Its body size is similar to mine, but it weighs more than me. It is impossible to sail at faster than light speed while carrying it bare-handed.

‘It’s difficult to move to starlight coordinates.’

For starlight coordinates, the time it takes to stop moving after moving increases depending on the size of the target. If you were to move a creature similar to me, it would be unable to move for at least a few days. If an unexpected problem arises in the meantime, it becomes very difficult.

‘I guess that’s the only way here.’

I approached the pirate ship that Se-chan was pulling.

The ship, with its impressive streamlined design unique to Megacorp, was 500 meters long. Compared to my body length, it is approximately 6 to 7 times the size.

‘Then, shall we go in?’

I held onto both sides of the hole made by PS-111 with my wing arms. He used his arms to widen the hole and put the three heads in first.

“Why is Amorph doing that?”
“It looks like they are trying to use that technology for the first time in a long time.”
“They are trying to erode the ship and take control.”
“corrosion?”

When I was halfway inside the ship, I pulled the tentacle out. In the process, many of the ship’s facilities were ruined, but it didn’t matter. After all, every element of this ship will be reorganized according to my will.

As the tentacle protruding from the back touched the inner wall of the ship, a familiar text box appeared before my eyes.

?Check that it is a suitable size for erosion. Erosion is expected to take 5 minutes to complete. The controllable time after erosion is currently 60 days. ?
?*Erosion completion time is proportional to the size of the object being eroded.?
?*The controllable time is proportional to the energy the user has stored up. When the control time runs out, the control target is automatically discarded. “
Do you want to start erosion?”

‘It’s been a while since I received this message.’

It’s the only trait I acquired for the second time, and it’s a trait I haven’t used much since I became able to travel at faster than light speeds with my bare body.

A trait that made more use of tentacles, which are body parts created as a side effect, rather than the trait itself.

It’s time to bring out the characteristic ‘Nightmare Horizon’ that erodes and dominates the spaceship.

‘Then let’s get started.’

Six long tentacles point towards the heart of the ship. The tentacle that reaches the engine room first starts spewing out mucus.

A wave of black slime instantly engulfed the superlight engine. As if that wasn’t enough, it flowed out and engulfed the entire ship. Perhaps because of its size, erosion proceeded very quickly.

“What is that? “A ship…is it turning into a nest?”

I could hear surprise in Isabelle’s voice outside.

He’s never been seen taking control of a ship with Nightmare Horizon. It is surprising that only an outspacer can take control of a ship in a similar way in the game.

“It’s a trait that takes control of a ship and turns it into a biological ship. “It seemed like it was made as a special privilege he had.”
“Can you take control of the hidden Giga Cracker as well?”
“It seems like control depends on the size, but it’s probably possible. However, there is a time limit when it becomes a biological ship. At the end of that time, the boat was completely damaged and could not be used.”
“Hmm. indeed.”

The Mother of Heaven, who had seen him rule the ship several times, explained it to him.

“I have to bring my child with me, I have to take care of his study materials, and I have to take care of his food. Again, again…”
“I will help. “I will bring you ‘Ddanttani’ first.”
“huh!”

Unit 26 and PS-111 were in full swing preparing to leave. Even as they take control of the ship, I can feel them moving around busily.

“….”

Se-chan, the former owner of the ship, was speechless as he watched his ship transform into a bizarre shape.

It may be because of the parasite in my head, but even if it wasn’t, I would have reacted the same way as I did now. It was completely outside of common sense for a ship made of metal to turn into a living thing.

Amid the noisy atmosphere, Adhaiman was enjoying a nap alone in a comfortable position. It seemed like it was having a pleasant dream as the tip of its tail moved gently while it was sleeping.

Five minutes have passed since the erosion began.

The pirate ships that surrounded me no longer exist. The ship became something animated by the black slime expelled by the eroding tentacles.

‘done.’

The biological ship connected to the main body moves entirely under my control. All useless facilities and compartments were removed, and space was created for mountain crawlers to board.

[Zu Zzu (It’s done)]
“Okay?”
“If you look at it from the outside, it’s completely different on the inside.”
“If you look at the outside, there’s not much of a difference.”

The exterior of the ship I currently control has only changed color to black, but everything else remains the same. Isabel raised her body slightly and began to look around me.

The ship taken over by Nightmare Horizon can reflect some of my characteristics. I made a large mouth, the ‘harvester’s maw’, on the front of the boat and showed it to him.

“Like you said, it’s my second body.”
[Z(Yes)]
“The inside of the boat is practically the same as Aimorph’s stomach.”
[Zuzu zuzuzu zuzuzu (slightly different but similar)]
“It’s fascinating.”

Just because something comes into the boat doesn’t mean it becomes my food. If you want to feast on food while in control of the stomach, you must eat through the harvester’s mouth. Only then can the genetic essence be obtained.

After disarming the harvester’s jaw, I created a new entrance in the side of the boat. Isabelle looked around as if she was interested and then entered through the entrance.

“I want to go in too!”
“There is a lot to move. “Please make the door bigger.”

PS-111 and 26 went in and out of the ship, transporting food and various mechanical devices obtained from this planet. I also helped them by creating tentacles on the outer wall of the ship.

‘Now I have to wake up Aadhai too.’

I pulled out one of the tentacles and tapped its plump tail. Then the guy was startled and jumped up from his spot.

?What is it???Just now??What is it??
[zuzuzu zuzuzuzu (time to wake up)]
?Adult??
[zuzuzu zuzuzuzu zuzuzu (I’m leaving here, get ready)]

The guy nodded, rubbing his eyes with his paw.

‘Now all that’s left is…’
?Grumbling?
?Don’t worry.?

It is a mountain crawler that has come to the ground. It fixed its four eyes on me and sniffed.

?Geuwoo?

The appearance may have changed, but the smell will remain the same. After a while, the mountain crawler let down its guard and approached me. I opened a large door at the rear of the ship and brought him and Heavenly Mother into it.

The boat swayed slightly when he got on, but soon regained stability.

“are you okay? Can you move??
[Zuzuzuzu zuzuzu (this is okay)]
?…The problem is that your body is too big.?

That giant mountain crawler survived the explosion of an antimatter bomb. That level of defense would be of great help only in ground battles, but there is a problem.

‘It’s so big that it’s not easy to carry around.’

Now, thanks to Nightmare Horizon, you can easily take him with you, but if the attribute goes on cooldown, that becomes impossible. After attacking the Colony Research Center, you will have to wait a long time to move that giant creature.

‘Or mobilize Giga Cracker.’

A Giga Cracker that can easily transport large quantities of minerals can be easily moved even with a Mountain Crawler.

[Zuz zuuu zuzu zuzu zuzuzu zuzu zuzu (let’s go to Aadhai’s house first and leave him there)]
?What should I feed him?? [Zuz zuuu zuzu zuzu zuzuzu zuzuzu zuzuzu (let’s go to Aadhai’s house first and leave him there)] ?What should I feed him??
[Zuzzuzuu zuzu zuzu zuzuzu zuzuzu zuzu (let’s go to Aadhai’s house first and leave him there)] ?What should I feed him?? [Zuzzuzuu zuzu zuzu zuzuzu zuzuzu zuzu (let’s go to Aadhai’s house first and leave him behind)] ?What should I feed him? )]
“I’m thinking of asking the Coldbloods for a favor.”

There are also Coldbloods who live on the ice planet along with the Gallagons. If you ask them to take care of the mountain crawler for a while, it will be able to last for a while.

After everyone boarded, I looked at Se-chan, who was left alone.

‘Should I take that guy too?’

His connections can be quite useful when entering LV-06. That would be better than eating it here. I ordered a parasite and brought him on board the boat as well.

‘good.’

All preparations to leave have been completed.

I focused my attention on controlling the ship I had taken over. Plasma made from my biological energy is spewing out from the thruster.

The hull rose upward with a strange feeling of floating, different from when flying with wings. Then, like a bullet leaving the barrel of a gun, my body pierced the cloud of volcanic ash that filled the sky.

Behind me I see a star full of fire and ash. After finishing everything at Asuka 44, I ran towards the dark space.

After the black spaceship left Asuka 44, the rocks floating in space began to move.

?The ‘predator’ asked for the ‘second bait.’ ?

Its identity is the Queen of Outspacers.

A queen, whose size was much smaller than that of an ordinary queen, was observing the outside while hiding her body in the rock fragments.

?The aircraft presumed to be a ‘predator’ has escaped.?
?His seed, still not confirmed.?
?There is no hindrance to the plans of the Empress and the ‘Great Enemy.’ ?

The Queen approached the halo of light left behind by the black spaceship in a very cautious manner. Several thin tentacles emerged from the queen’s body and touched the residual energy generated by the faster-than-light voyage.

“‘Predators’ are dangerous. So, be careful and track it down.”
“It has improved since the last encounter, so there is no problem.”
“The ‘predator’ is dangerous. “Move carefully.”

Just before the remaining energy disappeared, the queen’s body glowed blue.

Soon after, the queen also disappeared, leaving behind only blue light and stone fragments.

A word from the author (author review) ?Nightmare Horizon: Your hunting ground is not limited to one planet. Increases the effectiveness of unique traits you possess. You can use ‘Erosion Tentacles’, which allow you to control your spaceship by eroding it.
*Affected by: Embodiment of the Hunt (duration increased to 20 minutes), Organic Evolution (unlocks special condition ‘Clever Weak’), Great Infector (increased limit of enhancements), Dragon’s Heart (trait that consumes psychic power) Increased power), Herald of Chaos (increased application range and power), Complex Spectral Body (cooldown reduced to 30 minutes), Medusa Organ (can control enemy genetic mutation rate), variable biological weapon (can also transform erosive tentacles), black Devourer Cannon (Reduced energy consumption)
*’Erosion Tentacle’: Erosions the spaceship, turning it into a composite creature controlled by the user’s consciousness. While connected to a spaceship, you can ‘use some of the physical attributes’. When the user runs out of stored energy, the attribute effect is automatically canceled. Erosion Tentacles can only be used once per 7 days and once per spaceship.
*Available Flesh-related Traits: Regeneration, Mimicry, Claws, Reaper’s Maw, Complex Prism, Destroyer Carapace, Exothermic Spiked Armor
*Note: Cannot be canceled until the ship’s erosion has been completed.
*PS: ‘Nightmare’ is just a word. In reality, it’s much more terrifying. Watch next episode.”
