I Became an Evolving Space Monster Chapter 441

“What? “The soldiers are missing?”

Blair frowned at the report that came out of nowhere during the meeting.

The crisis management team leader who brought up the story cleared his throat once and continued talking.

“Hmm, yes. “The whereabouts of one person from the quarantine team, one person from the supply management team, and one of the rescued survivors are unknown.”
“How long has it been?”
“It is estimated that the quarantine team member and the survivor went missing about 10 hours ago, and the supply management team member went missing about 8 hours ago.”

After hearing those words, Blair’s eyes focused on the quarantine team leader and the supply management team leader.

“Is what the crisis management team leader said true?”
“Uh, that’s… ”
“It hasn’t even been a day, so it’s a bit too much to call her missing…” ”
“Pathetic bastards!”

An enraged Blair screamed and slammed the desk.

All personnel on board this ship must report their work status to their team’s superiors every six hours. However, if you look at the time the missing people disappeared, it was well over 6 hours.

“You act so carelessly even after knowing that Outspacer deals with parasites!”
“S-sorry!”

In fact, a live parasite emerged from one of the survivors they rescued. This is a situation where we need to remain vigilant more than ever, but I never thought I would make such a mistake.

“From now on, both of them will be stripped of their team leader positions, and those who were previously deputy team leaders will take over. “Do you understand?”
“Yep… .”
“Crisis management team leader. “Do you also have profiles of missing people?”
“I’ll launch it now.”

When the crisis management team leader operated his personal terminal, a hologram appeared in the middle of the desk in the conference room. It was a hologram containing information about a missing person.

While looking through the material, something unusual caught Blair’s eye.

“That quarantine team member, he was the first to discover the Outspacer parasite. And the last task was to examine survivors.”

“Yes. That’s right.”

“Survivors who went missing during inspection, and quarantine team members who also went missing. “I guess it means that the parasites hiding in the survivors have moved on.”

“Does that mean there are two parasites?”

Blair nodded with a serious expression.

“Shall we search the supply management team members?”

“No. It’s already late. “He must have changed into a different body.”

Everyone in the conference room opened their eyes wide.

If that is true, it is not normal. There may be someone here with parasites as well.

“From now on, we will investigate all personnel on the ship. Navigation team leader, stop faster-than-light navigation and move to high-speed navigation mode until the investigation is completed.”

“Oh, I understand!”

“I will designate the order of the team and targets in charge of the investigation and inform them individually. This is to prevent information leakage. Do you understand?”

“yep!”

“Is the communications support team next?”

“yes. Hmm, it is presumed that the reason the current communication system is unstable is due to abnormal star activity…”

After that, the meeting ended after discussing a few more issues.

“Well, now that I think about it, the assistant team leader has been acting suspiciously lately. Is this true?”
“We need to gather the team members right away and check….”

The team leaders all left the conference room with dark expressions on their faces.

Blair, who was left alone, glared at the hologram with cold eyes.

‘Damn monsters. ‘Don’t think everything will go your way.’

Not many people know him, but he has survived the disaster of the T&C Special Trade Center in the past. Compared to that terrible memory, Outspacer parasites are nothing.

He won’t be able to last long and will be caught soon.

With that confidence in mind, he ended the hologram.

｢Joel’s Personal Record #26｣

* Joel, a second-year member of the Edgerton Silver Lion Knights and a member of the maintenance team under the Edgerton Special Rescue Team, leaves this record.

In the morning, the team leader summoned all team members.

The team leader spoke at the gathering where everyone was gathered.

Currently, Norris from the quarantine team and Peter from the supply management team are missing. If you see them, report them immediately.

He went missing on a ship that was in full operation. I couldn’t believe it.

It wasn’t just me. The other guys also looked like they were talking nonsense.

I don’t know anything else, but Norris can’t do that.

Yesterday, I invited him to have a drink with me, but he said he couldn’t go because he had work to do. Norris is the most conscientious person I know. There’s no way a guy like that would disappear for no reason.

Moreover, even if he went missing, where would he go on an isolated ship?

It is clear that he was unable to report his work status because he was sleeping overtime the previous day. You might be stuck in a corner where people don’t know and sleeping like crazy.

Myles from the same team also agreed with me.

While having dinner with the communications support team, I heard that there was a problem with the ship’s current communications system. They say it’s because of the waves emitted from the star, so I don’t think you need to worry.

It’s past 11 p.m., and there’s no contact from Norris.

I will have to visit the quarantine team tomorrow.

｢Joel’s Personal Record #27｣

Before lunch, the team leader suddenly summoned the entire maintenance team.

I thought I had found Norris, but no.

The team leader informed me to go to the lab as my schedule had changed and I needed to undergo a physical examination.

We protested, but the team leader was also stubborn. He made nonsense of the fact that anyone who refuses to be tested will be summarily punished, regardless of the reason.

Thanks to this, I couldn’t even eat lunch and was taken to the research team for an examination.

That alone was a shitty experience, and I heard some shitty stories there.

Miles said the reason we were being tested was because of a new type of outspacer.

I heard from someone on the research team that an outspacer with the ability to live as a parasite on the human body was hiding among the survivors and moved to our ship. Are you saying the tests we took were also designed to detect this?

This is nonsense. Why would you bugs target this ship?

And I know this because I fought against Outspacers, and those monsters only move based on their instinct to kill. It is not intelligent enough to hide in a human body.

However, there were some points that Miles pointed out that made sense. I don’t know why the research team, rather than the medical team, is in charge of the tests.

I asked questions to the research team, but no one answered. After the test, I asked the team leader, but that guy just told me not to worry about it since it was a test that all other teams were taking as well.

Fuck, that’s what I said. Third character without a love (deleted)

｢Joel’s Personal Record #28｣

Norris, who had gone missing, has been found.

The location is inside the supply management team’s residential water storage facility. Palmer, who also went missing, was there.

Fuck. Some of my team members said that the water tasted strange in the morning, so I wondered why they were giving a damn, but I had no idea it was because there was a corpse.

Moreover, according to what came in from there, the condition of the body that was found was very strange.

This is because only skin was found, with no contents such as flesh, bones, or internal organs. I heard that even though the storage tank was completely emptied to send the contaminated water to a water purification facility, nothing came out.

After the news spread, the atmosphere within the team was shattered. In particular, the cubs whose lodgings were close to storage room 3 did not make a fuss about vomiting.

Anyway, in relation to this, there was a broadcast from Blair on board in the evening. The message was that the crisis management team is currently investigating surveillance cameras and the supply management team, so rest assured.

If it were any other time, I would have calmed down after hearing that, but I couldn’t this time.

Human skin found in the water. It is very ominous to actually experience a situation similar to the ghost story commonly circulated among sailors. It seems like something terrible is happening somewhere I don’t know.

I’m not the only one who thinks so. Everyone is equally anxious.

I hope there will be only good news from tomorrow.

When I came to work in the morning, there weren’t many people there.

Perhaps because of yesterday’s work, everyone took sick leave.

If it were any other time, the bastard team leader would have been terrible, but not like today. Because the cub also rested.

The team leader didn’t come out, so we spent some time chatting.

And after a long time, I heard some good news.

The crisis management team found out who put the body in the drinking water storage facility.

The culprit was the newly appointed head of the supply management team. It is said that he was caught on camera carrying a corpse with only the skin remaining and putting it into a storage room.

When the identity of the nightmarish ghost story was revealed, I was honestly relieved and relaxed.

The Outspacer parasites, the space monsters that skin people, it was all nonsense. The truth was that it was nothing more than a crime committed by an insane killer.

Miles still insisted that it was because he was infected by the Outspacer. The basis for receiving the award was that his personality changed after becoming a team leader.

This is an absurd claim. If you think about it that way, I’ve been depressed for the past few days. Is it because I’m under the control of Outspacer?

Anyway, now that the culprit has been revealed, it is only a matter of time before he is caught.

Soon everything will be back to normal.

｢Joel’s Personal Record #30｣

I heard new news through the ship’s broadcast this morning. It is said that the killer was killed in the early morning.

The problem was solved with this.

Colleagues who were on sick leave did not show up today, but everyone will return to normal by tomorrow. Of course, it would be nice if that bastard team leader didn’t continue like this.

In the evening, I had a drink with my teammates.

This time, Miles also raised conspiracy theories, such as saying that it was suspicious that the criminal had to be killed and whether there was a mole in the crisis management team.

It is true that the crisis management team handled it a bit excessively, but it is not something that is particularly incomprehensible.

The supply management team leader was a member of the Knights of the Silver Lion and underwent genetic modification surgery. It is impossible to subdue it by shooting one or two laser guns.

If we had responded sloppily, the crisis management team would have suffered greater damage.

I tried to explain it logically, but Miles, this idiot, didn’t listen. What a consistent bastard.

However, this time, there were quite a few kids who agreed with Miles’ opinion. Even though he wasn’t very drunk, he openly cursed at the crisis management team.

Even if the team leader is not present, it is not common to criticize another team in front of others. I think it’s because I’m anxious because of various recent events.

Anyway, we drank in moderation and parted ways.

On the way to my dorm, I saw the team leader on sick leave. I was standing in front of the medical room with my body wet, probably after washing up.

From the looks of it, it seemed like he was out looking for medicine. Because it would be a pain if I encountered it, I deliberately took a detour and came back.

A scream is heard outside.

I don’t know what’s going on. I have to get out quickly

｢Joel’s Personal Record #33｣

I haven’t had much free time these past few days, so I haven’t been able to leave a record.

After barely suppressing the sudden outbreak of a mutiny on board, an unidentified epidemic broke out.

Some people died with blood pouring out from all over their bodies, while others died with black spots all over their bodies. Those who touched the patient’s body also died from a disease they had never seen before.

Although the symptoms were different, they had one thing in common. Once you catch it, you die.

If there had been a medical room left, treatment might have been possible somehow. However, all facilities to treat diseases were caught up in the rebellion and burned down. The only medicine is a small amount of treatment mounted on the reinforced suit.

People die every day. Even people who are not sick do not know when they will die.

Even when trying to request external support, the ship’s communication system stopped working. The communications support team is said to be repairing the problem, but the results cannot be guaranteed.

In other words, we are all dying in isolation.

That fact drives me crazy.

It’s not just me. Even among the same team members, the way they look at each other is very harsh.

We have reached our limit.

I was attacked by a colleague who tried to rob me of the cure.

I barely survived, but I don’t think I can rest in the dorm any longer.

Luckily, I was able to return to my accommodation.

Miles has said this before. Outspacer parasites have infiltrated the ship.

That is wrong. It’s not bugs that have taken over the ship.

It is something endlessly malevolent.

Due to the chaos covered in human skin, the entire ship became a moving hell.

There are no ordinary humans here. Wherever you go, unidentifiable monsters and humans succumbing to madness and chaos are watching.

There are still survivors like me, but it means nothing. Neither they nor I have long left to die.

Miles calls from outside the door.

He was attacked by a monster while coming here with me. The being who is already dead is urging me to come out.

I don’t want to die.

There are no problems with the operation of the ship.

Blair’s group, which disrupted normal navigation, was successfully suppressed.

The ship is expected to reach its destination quickly under the leadership of its new captain.

I can’t wait to meet my colleagues.
