Chapter 392
When you enter a state of hunting, vision disappears, but the performance of other sense organs greatly improves.
In the case of Aimorphs, which do not have a nose or ears, the tentacle-shaped auxiliary organ located under the chin is intensively strengthened.
Thanks to this, even if you cannot see, you can accurately recognize what the other person looks like or feel the flow of energy that cannot be seen with the eyes.
That outspacer, identified as an auxiliary organ, was something I had never seen before.
‘It looks like a remodeled queen.’
Just like when I fought in Berzan 02 before, the queens commanded by the 4th place looked very different from what I was familiar with. Because of this, it was difficult to know which genetic essence was used as the material.
‘Or maybe it’s because of the privilege he has.’
Anyway, it was clear that that special entity was the one blocking my escape route.
There were three 20m tall flying monsters around him. Probably its role is to escort an unidentified outspacer.
Isabel, who was observing the enemy with her heavenly eye, sent a thought wave.
“I saw the enemy, special, and gong. Flight, monster, eh, nudge absorption, it’s possible.”
[Zuzuz zuzu zuzu (Who’s the one in the middle?)]
「Sailing, energy, blocking. you can do it. Range, top, very wide. And, energy detection, high speed, faster than light speed, you can do it, uh.”
[Zuzu (high speed?)]
“Almost at War, Pboi level.”
After listening to the story, I understand what the four outspacers were aiming for.
‘Counter to Psychic Breath and Black Devourer Cannon.’
The flying monster with the ability to absorb energy is used to block the psychic breath, and the special object in the middle is used to block the ‘Black Devourer Cannon’.
‘The Black Devourer cannon can’t be blocked, so I’m going to avoid it altogether.’
If I show signs of firing a cannon, he will immediately release control of his faster-than-light travel and try to escape.
At that time, two small projectiles flew from between the clustered ships. Starting with the two shadows shooting, other enemies also began attacking.
‘First of all, I know what kind of power the other person has.’
How should I fight?
In keeping with the enemy’s offensive, I also began to fly.
Megacorp’s ships fired not only with the main guns mounted on the front, but also with the auxiliary guns located on the sides. Star Union’s ships fired guided torpedoes indiscriminately using the guns embedded in the outer walls.
Because the distance was close, the enemy’s offensive continued without a break. My carapace was damaged and recovered repeatedly after being hit directly by plasma heat rays and torpedoes.
The fire net is so tight that it is difficult for someone of my size to avoid it. At this rate, it is difficult to expect PS-111 and Isabelle to fire in check.
From here on, it is time to trust auxiliary organizations. Auxiliary organs covered with bone blades move furiously and collect information.
I didn’t know about other attacks, but I moved forward while somehow avoiding the special bullets fired by the Giant Gun.
Having narrowed the distance to the enemy fleet, I pulled out all the tentacles and launched them at the nearby ship. The battleship tried to widen the distance, but it was already too late. A huge ship, more than twice my size, was caught in the tentacles.
The Giant Gun’s special bullet, which flew through the black space, pierced the outer wall of the ship, not me. Other enemies’ attacks were also blocked by the battleship held by the tentacles. Even though my colleague was captured by me, there was no mercy whatsoever.
‘Well, that’s the loss.’
I used the battleship as a shield and at the same time ripped off the outer wall of the ship with my mouth. Every time a lump of alloy was digested, the effect of ‘Destroyer Carapace’ was activated on the entire body. The damaged carapace recovered, and the body size increased slightly.
As I became stronger, the captured ship instantly became a rag. The crew members in space suits tried to resist somehow, but there was no point. Either it would go into my mouth along with the alloy fragments, or it would be hit by PS-111 fire and be torn to pieces.
“Predation effect activated!”
Thanks to this, I also acquired some of the characteristics that can be obtained from humans, such as ‘dexterity’ and ‘dental strength’. Dexterity was immediately fused with ‘radio interference’ and made into ‘hijacking’.
‘I just needed it.’
After quickly defeating one ship, I rushed at the battleships. The ships that were gathered together quickly spread out to avoid me.
We responded quite quickly, but the situation has just changed. I used hijack on one of the torpedoes that was about to hit me. The guidance chip inside the torpedo was controlled and sent to the fleeing Star Union battleship.
The thruster attached to the rear of the battleship exploded, and its moving speed plummeted. Dozens of naval guns mounted on the outer walls of the ship spewed fire like crazy, but nothing changed. I used the damaged battleship as a shield, just like I did earlier.
‘The preparations are complete.’
To destroy the cards prepared by 4th place, you need some supplies. The large cover I am carrying now is one of them.
‘And then…’
I hid behind the boat and prepared to deliver a big blow to the enemy. I put all my concentration into preparation because I couldn’t be late or make a mistake.
“Dangerous, but effective. “I will help you.”
“Sister, bullet. Intercept.”
Isabelle and PS-111 worked diligently to block the Giant Gun’s bullets and torpedoes, as well as the swarms of collecting bugs that tried to take a detour and come after me.
In the meantime, after completing all preparations, I used the final attack method, the Black Devourer Cannon.
The energy spread throughout the body flows into the left tail. My body shakes as if I am floating on a stormy sea.
No, it’s not just my body that’s shaking. Light that exists faintly in the middle of space is refracted, and space fluctuates.
Enemies also sense something unusual and move quickly. The ships, narrowing the gap between each other, are engulfed in a blue glow. Among them, there was an outspacer that the 4th place player created to deal with me.
The energy that used to flow softly has now become so intense that it can be easily sensed even from a distance. He’s trying to lose control and go faster than light with his fleet.
Just as the Outspacer and the fleet disappeared, a black cannonball was fired from the tail.
I could not feel any of the elements that could be heard or felt on the battlefield, such as explosions made by ships or screams as life was extinguished.
All that was perceived by the auxiliary organs was silence.
After a while, the energy was concentrated in a distant space. I used the ‘starlight coordinates’ for the ‘item’ I had prepared before they came out.
Soon, enemies who had surpassed space appeared. Among them were outspacers.
The enemy’s damage was not that great. Looking at the number of remaining ships, approximately 10% to 20% were sucked into the Devourer’s maw.
‘doesn’t care.’
Because what I was aiming for was not the enemy fleet.
As I get further away from the fleet, a group of outspacers, including collecting bugs, try to attack me again.
If you use starlight coordinates, you will be unable to do anything for at least 1 minute. From the enemy’s perspective, it would be difficult to miss an opportunity like this.
But they suddenly stopped. The collecting bugs that were trying to tear me apart immediately froze and did not move. It’s as if something is wrong with their heads.
‘Of course it is.’
Outspacer lower-level entities move under the direction of higher-level entities. If a problem occurs with a higher-level entity, the entities below it are also affected.
And now, a big problem has arisen for the being with the highest command among the higher entities.
“Castle, it’s a ball.”
Isabelle checked the enemy’s condition and told me.
The object I just teleported was one of the remains of the Star Union that was used as cover.
‘To be exact, it is a wreck covered in psychic foam enhanced with the color of the abyss.’
The Black Devourer cannon was a decoy.
As I expected it to dodge, I secretly prepared an alloy fragment imbued with enhanced psychic breath as I ate its stomach. This unholy bubble takes advantage of the fact that it does not activate against inorganic objects.
I had a piece of foam covered in it and used starlight coordinates to match when it moved. The guy who stopped controlling his faster-than-light navigation for a moment to escape was hit by the weapon I fired at him.
‘No matter how well 4th place analyzed me…’
No one knows better than me, the owner of the trait.
The collecting bugs that had surrounded me began to run away. There was no systematic movement visible from those who had lost their commander.
The battleships of Megacorp and Star Union left the fleeing group of Outspacers alone and approached me. Since they lost the means to move quickly, they seemed to have decided that if they increased the distance, they would be at a disadvantage due to the Black Devourer cannon.
‘You’re going to see it through to the end somehow, right?’
Currently, my body cannot move for 1 minute due to the penalty of starlight coordinates. Hundreds of ships approach, firing non-stop.
Among them were shadows. Shadows holding giant guns moved to the side and moved to a position where they could attack me. Isabelle and PS-111 continued to fire in check, but the two shadows skillfully avoided the attacks.
As they were moving around and were about to fire their giant guns, a large object quickly approached me from behind.
It was my alter ego, ‘Right Head’, who was fighting with the outspacers. The guy who succeeded in killing the 40m outspacer he was fighting had a lot of blood around his mouth. The bloody Aimov jumped past me and into the enemy fleet.
Sky’s mother, who was fighting the Outspacer with him, was not there. Because her target was not a ship.
One of the shadows trying to shoot me flinches and stops. A primitive type of blade protrudes from his abdomen.
The Mother of Heaven approached him secretly and stabbed him with the priest’s golden spear. In that state, she lifted the window upward and opened it.
The other shadow, seeing its comrade being split vertically, immediately stops aiming and tries to run away.
‘Where are you going?’
“You can’t miss it.”
He’s been acting like a nuisance since a while ago, so I can’t let him go like this. As if reading my thoughts, PS-111 swung its arm with Gallagon’s claw sword.
Psychic power erupts from the tip of the long blade and flies towards the fleeing enemy. Immediately, its body was cut in half, and hot liquid spurted out from the cross section of its waist.
“I won’t make a mistake this time.”
[Zuzuzuzu (Okay, good job)]
Just when the penalty was over, I threw away the ship fragments I had used as cover and approached him. The shadow with its waist cut tried to protect itself by activating its shield, but my eroding tentacles were faster than it.
The mouth on the tentacle swallowed the body, which was split in two, whole.
“Predation effect activated! Successful acquisition of ‘Ultra Control’ genetic essence.」
「Takeover of ‘Ultra Control’ among the biological characteristics of ‘Code Black.’」
Shadow, or rather, the new characteristics stolen from the body of the newly appointed Code Black seeped into his body.
‘Ultra control! It was good….’
I was lucky enough to obtain a trait that could be used as a transcendence material. Just as I was about to rejoice, liquid suddenly flowed from my mouth.
The moment I realized that it was my blood and not a shadow, I felt an excruciating pain in my chest.
「Why are you doing that?」
「Eh, emo?」
PS-111 and Isabel, who sensed something was wrong with me, sent me a thought wave, but I was unable to respond.
This is because a bigger problem has arisen than the pain in my chest.
The carapace damaged by the heat ray stopped regenerating, and the energy consumed by the Black Devourer cannon was not recovered.
‘Why all of a sudden… no way?’
I think I know the cause of the abnormal phenomenon that occurred to me.
A shadow that was just eaten and digested.
Megacorp’s ranker must have planted something in the shadow’s body.
As soon as I realized that fact, a blue cloud appeared far away in outer space.
What appeared through the light were spaceships. Numerous warships joined the enemy camp.
The enemy’s offensive is not over yet.
A word from the author (author’s review) 「Hijacking: Inherits the effect of radio interference characteristics. You can control electronic devices within 10 meters for a short period of time. Can only be used on one device at a time and cannot be used on cyborgs.
*P.S.: In the space age, humans who cannot use machines are no better than primitive people.”
「Black Devourer Cannon: Infinite power is in your hands. It fires a projectile by consuming 50% of the total energy that can be stored in the body.
*PS: Please be careful. 」
「Starlight Coordinates: You can teleport normal objects and friendly creatures to specific coordinates, or make them travel at faster than light speeds.
*Caution: After using the attribute, you cannot move for at least 1 minute. The larger the object, the longer the time you cannot move. 」Watch next episode”
