Chapter 157
Episode 157. Defeat Plague (5)
“There’s only one thing that could be called a possibility.”
“one thing?”
“Regardless of whether it is the seed of ‘power’ or not, what Purkas wants is not plasma energy.”
Salomon exhaled smoke and asked back.
“Didn’t Purkas want the seed of ‘power’?”
“that’s right. but you said There are many powers that can be obtained in one dimension.”
The only seed found by Taeyang’s party was plasma energy, but two or three seeds could come out.
“Rather than that, look at the system window.”
“ah.”
At Taeyang’s words, Ran and I also admired a little.
[10-1 Eradication of Plague: Eliminate the source of the plague and restore the last fortress.]
Obtaining plasma energy does not fit the purpose of the stage, ‘defeat the source of the plague’.
“We got it wrong in the first place. This happened because we put stage clearing on the back burner and only thought about what we had to do.”
In order to know someone’s desire, of course you have to observe that person.
speech, behavior, attitude, etc.
To find out Purkas’s intentions?
Of course, you have to observe the words, actions, and attitudes of Purkas.
Taeyang’s party has not yet met Purkas.
If Purkas and their only connection point was, of course, the system window.
“The system window told me to fight the plague. plague. Of course it refers to the host monsters.”
Originally, the player faced the enemy prepared by the demon king.
But at least not as much as the plague eradication stage.
“that’s right. This is not the place prepared by the Demon King.”
There is even a place where the devil wants something else.
And the demon king told the players to defeat the plague.
The sun nodded.
“That means the host is not a monster controlled by Furkas. I even told you to get rid of it.”
“So who is the host?”
“The first host was said to have arisen naturally. But now, if you dare to ask what the ‘source of the plague’ is, you can talk about it.”
Messiah answered as if moaning.
“Supercomputer.”
“okay. A pestilence maker that is creating the 3rd ‘host’ by taking half of the food in the food storage. super computer. And to put this in other words, I don’t know about the 1st and 2nd hosts, but the 3rd hosts are definitely being produced by supercomputers engineered by the ‘natives’.”
Then what to do becomes clear.
The sun grinned.
“What we have to do is search the lab without killing the host as much as possible. Then you just have to look for clues.”
Urf, who had been listening to the story, intervened.
“Hero, in each laboratory, there must be a journal recorded by a researcher such as the head of the laboratory or the leader. If you look for it, you may be able to learn more about the 2nd and 3rd plague events.”
“May it be. nice. good night. Smart people are also good at recording like this. Thank you.”
Salomon shut up.
Messiah and Ran also looked at the sun with strange faces.
-oh; Yoon Taeyang, why do you use your hair?
-The battle cheater has intelligence.
-Yoon Taeyang! Taeyang Yoon! Taeyang Yoon!
-Your brain… has become sexy?
-Balbung or this?
Taeyang glanced at the chat window and shook his head.
at that time.
Koo Goo Goo Palace.
The fort began to shake.
Is it an attack by the hosts?
Taeyang and his party were alert in all directions in an orderly manner.
Urf looked at them and calmed them down.
“It’s just an earthquake. At some point, an earthquake occurred around the fort.”
“earthquake? Didn’t you say that the fort was built in the safest place while talking about the end of mankind?”
“yes. Strange. Actually, we tried to find out, but the host just started to boil… … . You don’t have to worry anyway.”
***
Returning to the shelter, Taeyang and his party did not rest for long.
Although there was a battle, it was not intense enough to recuperate at the level of the sun party.
“Let’s extract as much information as possible without fighting the supercomputer.”
“We will help too.”
Some people from the shelter who had eaten food and gained strength came with Urf and petitioned the sun.
Urf lowered his head.
“Some are researchers and some are knights. Combat with hosts is familiar. Because that’s what we did.”
The sun did not refuse.
This is because it is within the scope of the calculations made when recapturing the food warehouse in the first place.
– You’re a normal person, but why do you move with sweetness?
-Yes… Compared to the player, it’s almost like a sunfish.
-If you have a plasma weapon, it’s possible to serve one person, so it doesn’t matter, right?
– And these are where they live, so I have to do something. It’s even weirder to suck a finger from behind just because a player came.
Uroof started the briefing with Taeyang and his party in front of him.
“There were four people including me as the head of the research department.”
Unsurprisingly, the largest laboratory in the fortress was divided into five sections.
“There were five departments. Bioweapons Engineering Energy Weapons Engineering Transport Magic Field Fortress Security Magic Field. And a 10th generation supercomputer server room.”
“A supercomputer server room?”
“yes. This is an area for knights, not researchers.”
According to Urf’s story, knights were a group close to soldiers on Earth.
There was almost no personal interaction with the general public, so even with researchers.
Taeyang, who had been listening to the story, asked softly.
“I’m sorry to say this, but didn’t you say that your deceased sister’s husband was a knight?”
“… … There are exceptions everywhere.”
“that’s right. This can be happen. By the way, don’t 10th-generation supercomputers have names?”
Like Zeus or Prometheus or the Atom.
It was common in movies to give names to AIs that were close to humans.
At the sun’s question, Urf shook his head resolutely.
“There is no such case. never. There are many concerns that AI might have independence because of such actions. There are also virtual experiment results that are actually dangerous. You should never give them individual names.”
“aha.”
The sun chose the location to attack after looking at the brief map drawn by Urf.
The most intriguing was the bio-weapons engineering section.
I don’t know where the first host appeared, but the source of the second host was clearly from the bio-weapons engineering section.
And if there was a ministry that came up with the idea of producing the 3rd host, it was most likely the bio-weapons engineering section.
Because the three hosts really had the same characteristics and appearance as ‘biological weapons’.
Salomon seemed to want to see the energy weapons engineering section.
“It’s a development center for plasma energy. The natives might find a connection to the unknown first host. We may find another characteristic of plasma energy that Urf could not explain.”
“Oh good. If we can increase the use of plasma energy, that’s good for us.”
Looking at the map, the distance between the energy weapons engineering section and the bioweapons engineering section was not far.
Compared to the other 3 sections, it was almost stuck.
“The names are different, but it’s the same weapons engineering anyway. They often helped each other. Hmm, honestly, I felt a bit sad because it seemed like only my department was being bullied.”
“It’s TMI.”
“TMI?”
“Two Much… … Oh, don’t attach useless sagittarius.”
“yep.”
The problem is that the bioengineering and energy weapons engineering sections’ head-level labs are located on quite high floors even in these days.
It wasn’t like the fortress security magic field and server room, but it was on the 20th floor of a 30-story building.
“There are so many multi-story structures that it is difficult to count the floors. Anyway, why are you all going up?”
“Because of security. Due to the nature of the fortress, there are many security steps you have to go through as you go up. Aerial access is strictly prohibited.”
“aha. Of course the supercomputer is at the top, right?”
“yes. It’s in the server room.”
***
Sun’s party led the natives with plasma energy weapons to the energy engineering section.
Precisely as a route to go up to the energy engineering section.
There was no particular reason why I decided to stop by the energy engineering section first.
Because the route was more economical.
I was going to listen to all 4 sections in order anyway, but if I still couldn’t clearly grasp the goal of Purkas, I was going to stop by the server room.
kugung.
Upon entering the fortress once again, the three host hosts gathered like a swarm of bees welcomed the party.
“Ran!”
Powerful Nansin (怪力亂神) – Typhoon (颱風).
Aaaaaang!
The small, creepy monsters flew away at once.
The sun quickly scanned the enemies.
‘There is no 1 vs. 2 host.’
The plasma energy that appeared when the sun party raided the food warehouse led somewhere.
If the information at that time had been leaked, the supercomputer would have known the existence of the Taeyang party.
No new host has been placed in the food warehouse, nor has the perimeter around the fort been strengthened.
Did the supercomputer not even care about Taeyang’s party in the first place?
Starburst High Kick – Canon Form.
Wow!
A ray of light burst from the tip of the sun punctured the stairway leading upstairs.
Clumps of smoke blocked the hosts from entering, and Messiah’s psychic power crushed and killed the hosts that attacked from the other side.
“hurry! There’s nothing good about being held here for too long!”
“firing!”
[Plasma particle cannon open] x10
Kwagwagwagwang!
A beam of power so powerful that the inside wall of the fortress collapsed in an instant pierced the three major hosts mercilessly.
Ran skillfully created a vacuum to minimize noise.
At the same time, some of the three major hosts that had penetrated the fire net or light net were pierced with the tip of a fan and bounced off.
Kieeck!
“It’s great.”
Ran frowned.
It takes a lot of care to deal with the three major hosts, which are said to be the weakest of the three types of hosts.
A completely different level of difficulty from the previous floor.
Because the difficulty was not controlled by the demon king, the balance was out of balance, so I had no choice but to feel that way.
Of course, it has become difficult, but the power balance of Taeyang and his party has long since surpassed the level of those on the same floor.
“What is the mana situation?”
“are you okay!”
“Okay!”
“Nothing wrong.”
The sun shouted at Urf.
“now!”
“yes!”
Natives ran into the lab.
Of course, they are more efficient than the sun crew when it comes to finding journals or records.
“Salomon! Messiah! You guys help Urf and the others!”
This is also natural.
Because there might be another group of hosts in the lab.
The sun added.
“Guys! know? If there is anything to fight, the destruction of the laboratory is minimal! If the data is blown away, things get tricky!”
The moment Messiah and Salomon nod at the same time and disappear upstairs with Urf and his party.
Quadruped!
A huge boulder fell on Messiah and Salomon.
stormy wind.
Limited Gravity Control.
Call: Lightning.
Quadruped!
The stone was instantly pulverized by the interception of the three magic (skill) players.
“Obviously, I reduced the noise as much as possible.”
“I was torn apart on my own, but was that not enough?”
The four players looked at the newly appeared monsters, frowning.
Kieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Wow!
An overgrown fist.
Compared to the three major hosts, a form that resembles a human by leaps and bounds.
2nd host.
They were the ones who first encountered the sun’s party.
