Chapter 391
The shadow that attacked me immediately disappeared between the ships.
No matter how powerful the creature’s genes are, it is not easy for humans to fight and win against an adult Aimorph. This is because physical differences cannot be ignored.
They probably act like that because they know that fact.
‘I think I brought good equipment instead.’
[Zuzzuzuzu(How many people were there?)]
?Three. Yuil level, equipment, wear. I even checked the pistol and sniper rifle.”
Isabel spoke after checking the enemy’s information for a short period of time.
?The rest of the time is short, I didn’t see it.?
His special benefits only work if you see them with your own eyes. Because the enemy quickly hid himself, it seemed like they couldn’t confirm everything.
‘Still, I’m glad I saw some important equipment.’
First of all, it was clear that the pistol was something Isabel had obtained through a contract with Vortex One. This is because the attack method was the same as the pistol that he saw in his memory.
‘And a sniper rifle.’
This is also something I know.
‘Sniper rifle’ is a nickname passed around among players, and the official name is separate. The nickname is ordinary, but the power is not ordinary.
The official name is ‘Giant Gun’. Among rankers, the most common sniper rifle is the Giant Gun.
Unlike the sniper coil gun, which supports a variety of bullets, the Giant Gun is a weapon that supports only one bullet.
‘The problem is that those special ammo are very troublesome.’
Microorganisms collected from specific organisms are stored inside the Giant Gun’s dedicated bullets. When the special bullet gets stuck in the target’s body, it releases the microorganisms contained within it.
These microorganisms travel through the blood vessels of the attacked opponent and block all healing abilities. Even Amorph’s recovery and regeneration-related characteristics all become ineffective.
‘Right now, I don’t have any characteristics that can block the effects of that special bullet.’
After a certain period of time, microorganisms naturally disappear, but until then, their ability to recover is sealed.
So you have to be careful not to get hit at all costs.
I approached the enemy fleet while focusing on the auxiliary engines.
As the distance between each other narrowed, anti-ship drones poured out in droves from the Star Union ships. Some of the Outspacers that were with Megacorp’s fleet also went out to intercept me.
?Stationmaster, De Ron.’
PS-111 said after seeing the drone in the shape of an equilateral triangle.
That drone has no attack capabilities, but can instead create a powerful force field. It is a combat weapon mainly used when fighting Outspacers or Metallic Gremlins, which mainly use physical attacks.
As the large lens at the bottom of the equilateral triangle illuminated, a strong cohesive energy field was formed in front of me. I steered downward and out of range of the force field.
There, many naval aircraft were waiting for me. The small plasma guns mounted on the aircraft fired fire all at once. It was possible to avoid it, but this time I chose to break through.
Hundreds or thousands of plasma bullets hit my body. There are too many of them to avoid them all. I accelerated toward the carrier planes while being showered with plasma.
At that time, I felt a particularly threatening attack mixed among the numerous energy bullets. I bent my neck to avoid the shadow’s sniping. A small projectile about 30 cm in size passed over the carapace.
‘also.’
I expected it to come out like this from the moment the shadows used the fleet as cover to hide.
I activated the Dark Shroud as I flew.
It is difficult to see the light of the fog-forming type in a situation where the opponent has prepared a force field drone. The reason I wrote it even though I knew that was because it was aimed at me.
The black mist emitted from the biological pipe continued along the path I had taken. The aircraft immediately stopped their attack, and instead, a group of force field drones and outspacers came forward.
The drones predicted the direction I was moving and formed a force field. Large and small flying monsters, including outspacers equipped with biological cannons and collecting bugs, surrounded me surrounded by a force field.
These guys are gathered together and narrowing the siege.
‘I got caught.’
After waiting for this, I took out the number I had prepared.
Strange colors seep into the surface of the upper, which is a mixture of red and black. An eerie light, as if possessing malice, converges on the tentacles of the monster on its head.
Soon, a psychic bubble strengthened with the ‘color of the abyss’ came out of my body. A voracious predator wanders through the fog in search of prey.
Having been hit by the color of the abyss once before in Berzan 02, they will know how lethal this bubble is. They tried to retreat, but force fields everywhere impeded their escape.
While my enhanced psychic breath engulfed the gathered enemies, I stopped creating the veil and escaped through the gap in the force field.
Not far from the curtain, I sense a particularly small object among the aircraft carriers.
?3 o’clock ahead, pistol.?
As soon as I heard Isabelle’s thought wave, I immediately shook my head. One end of my horn was hit by a pistol and liquefied. From the moment you first encounter it, it has been persistently aiming for your head.
‘I guess it’s because they heard information about me.’
The one whose attack failed tries to retreat. Since you’ve already been hit twice, I can’t let you go like this.
The temperature of the large thorns sticking out here and there on my back rises rapidly. The moment the heat reached its limit, thorns were launched forward.
The aircraft that were blocking the front exploded after being hit by a thorn the size of an adult man and heated up with heat. I chased the shadow through the explosion.
The jetpack attached to his back worked well, so he was able to get around easily. But no matter how good the equipment you use, you can’t be faster than me in my hunting state. The tentacles that were sleeping inside the stomach came out to grab the enemy.
The tentacle appendages were about to snatch the guy, but Isabel urgently fired a thought wave.
“careful!”
From a distance, a small-sized bullet approaches the tip of my tentacle at high speed. A shadow holding a giant gun provided support fire.
It’s already too late to bite the tentacle. At that time, PS-111, riding on its back, responded.
?Twice, no, no.?
Before the special bullet hit the appendage, it fired a series of shots with the Demolisher implanted in its tail. One of the dark blue energy bullets intercepted an incoming 30cm bullet.
It was truly an art that was possible thanks to the assistance of a high-performance computer, but the ending was clumsy. This is because the shadow that was running away was also hit by an energy bullet.
The person who was hit by the material-decomposing bullet was unable to respond properly and turned into dust.
‘this.’
Because it is a symbol of hunting, you can obtain a lot of genetic essence by feasting on shadows. I unfortunately missed that great opportunity.
‘I can’t help it.’
Still, I guess I’m glad I succeeded in catching one of those pesky shadows. I retrieved the pistol floating in space with my tentacles and handed it to Isabel.
“good. very. Okay.’
‘The pistol was recovered. Next time…’
At the moment when they were trying to avoid the firing angle of the battleship’s main guns and enter the enemy camp, a large number of movements were detected behind them.
‘what?’
I thought they were ship-based planes, but they weren’t. The people chasing me were actually collecting bugs with foam all over their bodies.
Several insects, half of their bodies missing due to the colored bubbles of the abyss, are trying to cling to my tail.
Just before he was covered in foam, Isabel used Vortex One’s pistol. The collecting bugs that approached me disappeared like sand castles swept away by the waves.
“Hey, morph? Is it okay??
[Zuzuzu (Thanks)]
It would have been dangerous if Isabel had not reacted quickly.
The moment the psychic breath, strengthened by the color of the abyss, touches a living enemy, it spreads continuously until all organic matter is consumed. It may seem like you can easily prevent it by quickly wiping away the foam the moment it gets on it, but that’s not easy.
Because those ominous glowing bubbles inflict extreme pain on biological enemies. Even outspacers, which do not have intelligence in lower-level entities, are unable to move properly.
Because of this, most of the enemies hit by the foam were unable to move and suffered in pain until they died.
4th place seems to have caught this point and completely eliminated the perception of collecting bugs. So that we can continue to fight even if we are hit by a bubble.
Additionally, Gathering Bugs are expendable assault units that approach and fight enemies. It is also possible to move the foam from the body as long as you approach the other person.
‘I purposely modified only the collecting bug to move the bubbles back to me.’
The enhanced psychic breath has already been used once in Berzan 02. The characteristics and weaknesses were probably identified based on the information obtained at that time.
Gathering bugs covered in bubbles flock behind the outspacers that have liquefied and disappeared. Even while his body is melting, he is trying to cling to me somehow.
Station drones and ship-based planes also joined in and chased me. I moved non-stop to avoid them.
‘It’s a pretty annoying situation, but…’
My guess is that even if you’re ranked 4th, you probably don’t have complete knowledge of the colors of the abyss. For example, it is difficult to understand that foam only eats up organic matter and leaves inorganic matter untouched without seeing it several times.
‘Let me check.’
While performing an evasive maneuver to avoid the enemies, I turned my body sharply upward. Then, it struck the center of the Megacorp and Star Union battleships gathered overhead.
Some of the battleships hurriedly turned their main guns and fired plasma heat rays. Instead of avoiding the heat rain, I went forward while being hit by it all.
As I got closer to the battleships, the movement of the collecting bugs changed. The guys who were following closely behind me all turned and widened the distance between me and me. They seemed unaware of the fact that the enhanced psychic breath could not damage inorganic objects.
‘or not….’
This may be because there is an important entity hidden within the fleet that should not be touched by the bubble.
?Ah, morph, 4 o’clock.?
An unusual flow of energy can be felt at the point Isabel mentioned.
It was a unique flow of energy that was similar to, but somehow different from, the energy emitted during faster-than-light sailing. The size of the energy-emitting being was only the size of a small or medium-sized destroyer, but its unique energy was impressive.
‘It’s him.’
Those creatures protected by multiple battleships and outspacers are the ones that interfere with faster-than-light navigation.
I finally discovered the hidden card that the enemy rankers had prepared to block my escape route.
A word from the author (author’s review) ‘The ‘Token of a Mighty Enemy’ is a mark obtained after feasting on powerful prey. If there are characteristics that correspond to the unique perks of the prey, they will be reorganized into the badge characteristics of a strong enemy. Characteristics classified as signs of a strong enemy cannot be used as materials for fusion or transcendence systems.
