I Became an Evolving Space Monster

‘Why is this a bomb all of a sudden?’

That’s a bomb made by Star Union.

All of the spaceships currently stationed around the volcano are cult-style warships. Outside of Space Dog, it is quite rare for a cult to use cyborg weapons.

The core of the Cult Empire’s weapon system is an energy-based weapon based on psychic power. There is no reason to be interested in Star Union’s drone weapons.

‘Of course, that’s a general view.’

Salman, the ruler of Asuka 44, is a player. Since they will not be subject to the common sense of the cult, it is not strange to use Star Union weapons.

Among the three major powers, Star Union possesses the most powerful conventional weapons. In addition to nanomachine bombs, there are also a large number of conventional bomb weapons, such as traditional style bombs, such as nuclear weapons. And its power is so powerful that it cannot be compared to a real nuclear bomb.

[Zuzuzzu zuzuz zu (How many bombs are there?)]
“I don’t know exactly how much. “I just saw them carrying a gamma-class antimatter bomb.”

The Gamma-class antimatter bomb that Isabel mentioned is the third most powerful weapon among Star Union’s deployable bomb weapons. Its power is strong enough to destroy a city protected by a biodome.

‘The question is, why are you bringing that out here?’

When dealing with other enemies, Magmasaur cannot be killed with anti-matter bombs. This is because, like Sky Whale, which absorbs energy, it can absorb heat energy.

Wouldn’t the ranker who plans to fight Magmasaur know that fact? Trying to explode something like Gamma here will only fill the enemy’s stomach.

Therefore, that bomb was installed with a different intention.

‘I’m not trying to kill you, I’m trying to put you to sleep.’

Magmasaur’s diet is the energy and by-products generated when volcanoes erupt. It absorbs energy through the bone plates attached to its body, and inorganic substances such as lava and rocks are sucked in at once through its large mouth.

When the digestion limit is exceeded, the magmasaur stops eating and falls asleep on its own. When in a dormant state, the body is rapidly transformed and reborn as a new volcano.

‘It won’t be much different in this world.’

In the game, Magmasaur, whose body was transformed, was treated as terrain rather than a living creature. Of course, the genetic essence could not be obtained.

Unless you are lucky and consume it before the head deforms, it will be difficult to consume the essence.

The same goes for Salman. It is unclear how the perk will work, but it will not be able to dominate a gigantic creature whose body is changing on a genetic basis.

“It seems like a trap.”

Isabel said to me as I was thinking about the situation.

It’s a trap set by Salman. Given the circumstances, I think that is highly likely.

At the time of taking control of the researcher, Salman was actively searching for Magmasaur. The purpose is, of course, to dominate stronger creatures, not to put them to sleep.

The fact that he comes out like this can only be seen as a change in goal. It’s not about controlling it, but organizing it in advance so that it doesn’t get taken over by others.

And that other person refers to me.

‘I know I came to this planet.’

Otherwise, the actions of the scout fleet planting bombs on the supervolcano are unexplained.

Anyone who knows me well will know what I’m aiming for here. They will somehow try to prevent him from acquiring the genetic essence.

If my judgment is true, I must say that I am currently in serious danger. If Salman had recognized my intrusion, he would have already called for reinforcements.

Perhaps all of the returning faction’s rankers are already in Asuka 44.

“Big baby, are you okay?”

At that time, No. 26, who was overhead in the center, cautiously called out to me. He sensed my intensifying emotions and became worried.

‘Let’s calm down.’

My thoughts are jumping to only one side.

Losing your cool in a dangerous situation is not helpful at all. You must judge rationally.

‘If you look closely at the situation…’

First of all, one thing is certain: he doesn’t know where I am. If I had known, the returning faction’s rankers would have attacked me a long time ago.

Nevertheless, the reason they placed a bomb in Apex’s habitat was probably because they thought I might be in Asuka 44.

So what is the basis for that judgment?

‘A creature ruled by him.’

They must have used the unique perk ‘Beast God’s Lasso’ to place living surveillance cameras all over the planet. While I was roaming the planet, spies reported the truth about me to their masters.

In the meantime, I focused on avoiding the enemy ship’s surveillance network and did not pay much attention to the gaze of wild animals. Looking at the timing of the enemy’s actions, I think they may have been caught while on their way to capture Dradsong and Pyromancer.

‘But that’s not what’s important here.’

It is unclear whether Salman did not properly understand what the dominated animal saw, or whether it was a limitation of the privilege itself.

The point is that he is acting based on uncertain information.

If my guess is true, that bomb is some kind of insurance that works through a decoy called Magmasaur.

If I remove the bomb to capture the Magmasaur, my invasion is confirmed.

The same is true even if my existence is recognized through other channels. At that time, all you have to do is detonate the bomb to put the Magmasaur to sleep. Although I will lose the opportunity to rule Apex, it will prevent me from becoming stronger.

‘After that, they’ll call other colleagues to deal with me.’

So why did he take such a cumbersome method?

The answer is simple. This is because there are no colleagues in Asuka 44.

Alshas had previously said that each member of the Returned Sect was responsible for important work. Unless there is something very important to do, they do not abandon their duties and move.

However, as soon as it becomes clear that I have infiltrated Asuka 44, they will come here immediately. No, maybe they are already here requesting support.

‘This is all I can figure out right now.’

I explained my inferences to Isabel. The guy who listened to my story to the end in silence nodded.

“So what are you going to do now?”

There is one thing that is most needed in the current situation.

Quickly take out the guy before Salman’s colleagues arrive.

‘The other person, however, is quite a cautious person.’

Regardless of whether I had called my colleagues in advance or not yet, I would not have ruled out the possibility that I would hit myself first. They’ve probably laid all sorts of traps in preparation for my intrusion.

Heavenly Mother and PS-111 succeeded in infiltrating the base, but the situation is different from mine. In fact, if they had just one of the two, they probably would have failed to infiltrate. The Mother of Heaven cannot hack machines, and PS-111 has a body that is not suitable for infiltration.

However, I am not very reluctant to compete head-on. That, too, is no different from being dragged along by a plan prepared by him.

｢Big baby doesn’t seem to be in a good mood.｣
｢Dwarf｣｢When I meet him｣｣Always｣｢Mood｣｢Bad｣
｢It’s because humans have bad things.｣
｢Dwarf｣｢Body｣｢Weak｣｢Stick｣｢Strong｣
｢Bad “Humans need to be hit with bad objects!”

While I’m working hard on my brain, the kids chat about whether they’re bored or not.

‘for a moment.’

The moment I heard about their competition, an idea suddenly crossed my mind.

‘If I use this well, it won’t be bad, right?’

A way to achieve everything I was aiming for while at the same time inflicting a fatal wound on Salman.

There is only one method that is almost like magic.

[Zuzuzu Zuzuzuzu Zuzuzu Zuzu (Equipment that the Mother of Heaven is trying to make)]
“Huh?”
[Zuzu zuzuzu zuzuzu zuzu zuzuzu (It takes about two hours to complete that, right?)]
“It depends on what equipment you use, but I remember it took about that long.”
[Z (like)]

Four hours, including the time for the infiltrated guys to escape.

After that time, Salman will be finished.

–

“What happened to the person in charge of the bomb?”

A huge space with a dome-shaped gate on the ceiling.

In front of the rocky mountain in the middle of it, Salman asked the chamberlain.

“Four hours have passed since installation, but they say no one else has accessed it.”
“He will definitely appear there. “Detonate the bomb as soon as you confirm access.”
“I have a remote control switch over here, so you don’t have to worry.”

When the chamberlain took out a black terminal, Salman nodded slightly.

‘First of all, I did everything the Empress told me to do.’

Among the members of the Returning Sect, the ones who fought Aimorph the most were the Empress and the Tiger. Salman contacted the Empress via communication monument and asked for advice on how to deal with it.

She, or he said, if he really arrived on that planet, there was a high probability that he would have done so for two main purposes.

One is the ranker’s life. They must have heard of Salman’s existence from the already dead Alshas, so they came looking for him.

So the Empress said to focus on surviving as much as possible.

Immediately after receiving the call, he increased his load as much as possible by catching wild animals wherever he could. The ecosystem was in shambles because of that, but that wasn’t something to worry about now.

At the same time as increasing the load, I wore all the equipment available in the equipment storage room. For the remaining equipment, the storage’s security system was changed to closed so that no one else could access it.

And the second reason why he will target Asuka 44. That is Magmasaur, the best genetic essence that can be obtained from volcanoes.

Magmasaur, which belongs to the top Apex, is also something Salman covets. So, we have been using exploration teams to search the inside of the volcano.

The Empress, who knew this fact, also left this advice. If he really came to Asuka 44, Magmasaur should give up. And among the base’s subordinates, even those who came in from outside should be suspected.

‘Because it may be infected with parasites.’

There’s no way that crazy bastard would search every volcano. Even in games, he enjoyed taking advantage of his opponent’s plans. It is highly likely that he will secretly use his subordinates.

Since the words were all persuasive, he obediently followed them. Those in charge of external activities and volcano searches were all assigned to the bomb fleet. If any of them are infected, it will be a good way to attract Morphbagi.

“Are there any separate reported problems inside the base?”
“yes. Salman. “Nothing has happened so far.”

The chamberlain answered confidently. As he said, I hope no problems arise.

Thinking like that, Salman left the chamberlain behind and approached the rocky mountain, stretched out his hand and stroked it.

‘I guess I should check outside.’

I stroked the rocky mountain and closed my eyes. He was connected to one of the animals that dominated his senses.

When he opened his eyes again, what he saw in front of him was not a rocky mountain. All I could see was boiling lava everywhere.

Currently, beasts under his control are hiding in the sky outside the base and in the lava below the base. The beasts were instructed to report immediately if they saw a black cloud or a giant monster.

Among them, he synchronized with Vulkarox, who was hiding in the lava lake, and raised his head to look at the edge of the lake. There was no one to be seen where the black earth met the gray sky.

‘It would be nice if it was just a worry, but….’

I looked around while synchronized, but there was no one approaching.

As I was about to take a final look at the base floating overhead, a pillar of fire rose from the lava. It was a phenomenon caused by gas erupting upward from underneath the ground. In a split second, the base’s energy absorption device opened to absorb the gas, exposing its interior.

‘huh?’

Salman was shocked when he saw that. Although it was an extremely brief moment, it is true that the base was exposed to external threats. Who knows, maybe that part of the fight with Eimoff will be a weak point?

After disconnecting the link, he tried to tell the chamberlain about this.

“Facility to absorb gas…”
“Salman!”

At that time, the chamberlain was the first to open his mouth. He called Salman and was holding the communicator with a very surprised face.

“This is a call from the bomb fleet!”
“what?”

When the chamberlain turned on the communicator, a scream came out from inside the small device.

“We’re being attacked by a monster! Ha, it has been confirmed that more than 60% of the fleet’s strength has been lost!”
“No contact with the bomb manager on the ground!”
“Damn it!” Bar, there’s a guy outside trying to come in!”
“I need help right away! ” Apply now…Ugh, ugh! “Suddenly.”

The frantic voices soon stopped. All that remained after that was cold silence.

“Explode the bomb! right now!”
“Yes, yep!”

When Salman shouted firmly, the chamberlain quickly activated the remote control switch. The number 20 appeared on the screen of the black terminal. When that number reaches 0, a gamma-class antimatter bomb explodes.

If that happens, Aimorph will not be able to obtain the Magmasaur’s genetic essence.

Numbers rapidly decreasing.

When the remaining number reached 10, Salman suddenly had a strange feeling.

I wonder if things are going too well against the infamous Aimov.

“Chief Chamberlain. “Can you confirm the location of that bomb?”
“yes? “I will check.”

When the number pointed to 5, the chamberlain touched the terminal screen with his finger.

The chamberlain’s eyes widened as if they were torn apart as he saw the changing screen.

“Sir, Salman?”
“Why are you doing that?”
“Up, the location is….”

The map he showed me had a familiar place on it. The place where the bomb was, that was their base. The remaining number next to the screen is now 2.

“Such a sweetheart…!Marid(مارد)!”

As Salman shouted, the huge rock mountain behind him moved and covered him.

Immediately after that, light emanating from inside the base enveloped them.
