I Became an Evolving Space Monster

Chapter 274



Episode 274 – Chaos (2)

“Complete closure of the 2nd Command Center. Activate shield.”

“All VIPs in the banquet hall have been evacuated to the underground bunker. VIP evacuation of upper floors in progress.”

In the general management office, dozens of androids were controlling the second command center with cables attached to the back of their heads. Montana Marcio, the owner of the fortress, watched the robots working behind him with a nervous look on his face.

Those androids are all advanced robots created by Star Union. These are androids created to assist ship computers and modified for fortress management.

Even for the Marcio Cartel, it is not easy to find talented people capable of managing an orbital colony. This is because people with such high level of knowledge and expertise will not come over to Spacedog.

So Montana spent an astronomical amount of credit to purchase a number of high-end Android devices from Star Union. Plus the various weapons they will manage.

“Anti-air shock cannons and defense railguns activated and loaded.”

“We judged that psychic power-type attacks were meaningless against the enemy. Replace the bullet.”

“Replacing large-diameter high-speed impact bombs with cluster bomb missiles.”

“The armament of patrol corvettes under the command has also been changed to the same specifications.”

The Androids were responding very quickly to the crisis, as if the investment was worth it. Although the fortress artillery, a powerful defensive facility, was neutralized, they immediately took out the alternative means they had prepared.

Looking at that scene, Montana felt conflicting emotions. Despite the feeling of relief that one’s insight was correct, the feeling of anxiety does not go away.

‘shit! ‘I was thinking of leaving here if this business goes well.’

Recently, disturbing rumors have been spreading everywhere, including the sudden disappearance of Outspacer’s Jun-dong large cartels. In such a situation, Kesha Arma’s management rights obtained through lobbying were very unstable.

Therefore, the plan was to purchase a small planet within Megacorp’s territory with the profits earned through auction brokerage. If you do business in a legal area, it becomes easier to receive protection from Megacorp. Naturally, his safety will be guaranteed.

I did, but that plan was completely ruined.

An unidentified entity that infects organization members from outside and turns them into grotesque monsters. It is unknown whether it is Outspacer’s monster or an experiment brought in by some crazy Megacorp customer.

Whatever it was, I had suffered a lot of damage because of him, and now my life was in danger.

‘…Should I prepare to escape?’

Kesha Arma, which wanders in planetary orbit, has one more means of going outside than the military port. The means to travel only to the planet hovering exactly above their heads.

Montana looked at the monitors in the general management office, thinking of a last resort.

Beyond the screen were his men running around diligently, preparing to fight.

Three cylindrical pillars that can be seen from any area inside the fortress.

One of the three headquarters supporting Kesha Arma awaits us, fully armed.

‘That shielding wall is solid.’

If the headquarters is breached, the fortress will be over, so the walls protecting it have no choice but to be strong.

It is a wall made by mixing various high-strength metals on a black silver base that reduces the power of psychic power, so it is quite difficult to break through. The psychic breath and acid breath I can use will be able to break through, but it will take quite some time.

‘There’s no need to do that.’

The longer I wait, the more my weaknesses will be exposed to the enemy. It’s true that my body is strong, but that doesn’t mean I have any intention of taking on any attack.

As I always say, frontal fighting is not suitable for Aimov.

To deceive the enemy and make a surprise attack from an unexpected place. That’s Aimov’s fight.

I ordered the legion of mutants and madmen below me to advance. A hybrid army of those with mutated bodies and those with corrupted minds races toward the steel fortress.

The distance between them and the fortress was short. As of now, there has been no significant disruption.

However, Kesha Arma’s defense facilities are not limited to fortification guns.

A thick shielding wall surrounding the cylindrical headquarters. Flames flash from between the gaps. An intense binge of alcohol and the explosion that followed swept through the group of mutants.

‘It looks like it’s a shock cannon…’

The mutants that were directly hit disintegrated, and those that passed by also lost limbs. However, this alone is not enough to stop mutants.

“Gigigigi”

“Gegiiiii”

The mutant who lost his leg ran using the protruding tentacles instead, and the one with the broken waist used his two abnormally developed arms to run.

Meanwhile, light flashed again in the headquarters. An enormous amount of electromagnetic force split the air. And a red line appeared in the middle of the densely packed mutant group.

The projectile flew at super speed and pierced through the mutants and mercenaries, turning them into pieces of meat.

‘That’s the railgun I got expensively.’

Space Survival’s railgun is a weapon mainly used in Megacorp’s space fortress. This is useful when dealing with enemies that are resistant to energy-type attacks like me. If you enter Megacorp’s territory, especially the solar system, you will see it so often that it becomes boring.

Kadun said that the Marcio Cartel installed one in each headquarters after they took over the fortress. It cost an astronomical amount of money to purchase three small models with much less power.

‘Well, railguns are expensive. ‘It costs a lot to maintain.’

Compared to regular pirates, the Marcio Cartel made a lot of preparations.

However, it would be okay to say that their misfortune is that the other person is me.

‘The railgun went into a resting state.’

Shock cannons placed between the headquarters’ shield walls continue to spit out fire. The army of mutants and madmen I created did not stop moving forward even when they were killed by shells.

The number of mutations I have created alone exceeds a thousand. Residents driven into madness by the ‘Messenger of Chaos’ are joining in one after another.

The army of madness, which was increasing as quickly as the number of deaths, had already reached the shield wall of the headquarters. But it was impossible to penetrate in front of it. The sharp claws of the mutant mercenaries and the weapons carried by the pirates could not even make a scratch on the shield wall.

The command center began firing missiles similar to Claymores at the approaching enemies. Every time a missile filled with cluster bombs the size of a human head exploded in the air, the mutants and mercenaries below it were divided into six groups.

“Kwaaaaaaaa! Shibaaaaaal!”

“I’m going to kill you! You damn bitch! “Kaaaaaaaa!”

A group of mercenary pirates in madness let out a scream-like scream. Although their minds were polluted, their pain did not disappear, so their condition was truly miserable.

I thought the enemies would be hesitant if it was a mercenary pirate, but that wasn’t the case. The enemy was coming out much more decisively than I expected.

The headquarters fired cluster bombs without hesitation over the heads of those who had been colleagues until a while ago, as if they could not hear their screams. Dozens of people died each time the red flames scorched the shield wall.

‘It’ll be trouble if they’re already dead.’

For the Insanity Bomb to be fully effective, you must die after entering the command center.

‘Let’s get started soon.’

While the command center focused on other enemies, I landed on the ground. It folded the large membrane and stored it in the empty carapace of its wing arm, then lowered its head and brought the tip of its snout close to the floor.

‘It’s around here.’

While groping the floor with my assistive device, I stopped in front of a building where one wall had collapsed. It’s not exact because there are a lot of differences from the fortress in the game, but it’s probably correct.

I struck the wall with my wing arm, causing the building to completely collapse. Then he placed his mouth on the wreckage and opened his mouth wide.

The fungal gland located deep inside the throat operates and spits out a large amount of acidic fluid. The green liquid did not just engulf the ruins, it also penetrated to the floor.

The enemies still don’t know what I’m doing. However, a blind impact bullet did fly near me.

Still, I’m not worried. Because No. 26 is with me.

“I’ll clean it up so you don’t disturb the big baby.”

The guy on top of me collapsed other buildings and levitated the remains in the air. The flying shells exploded after hitting a rotating obstacle in the air.

‘A remarkable guy.’

After all, we’ve been together for a long time, so if we pretend, we pretend.

I continued digging under the protection of No. 26. After pouring out all the liquid stored in the fungal gland, spores containing explosive body fluid were thrown inside using the gun barrel on its back.

‘It doesn’t end here.’

This area must be drilled deeper than the underground storage area.

The monster’s mane-like tentacles, which extend from the back of the head to the neck, sway in accordance with my will. The high concentration of psychic power created by the tentacles condenses and forms a shape in front of my snout.

A purple sphere, like a blazing sun, turned into a huge flame and spewed out through the hole I had drilled. The hard metal floor began to crack due to the tremendous firepower.

Not only that, but the area around me shook violently, as if there had been an earthquake. Buildings that were in good condition collapsed completely, and flames of psychic power shot out like lava from the cracked floors.

‘good.’

The intense flame of psychic power that burned even Apex creatures to death gradually died down.

Thick smoke rose from the black pit. Amid the toxic smoke created by the chemical reaction, my auxiliary organs smelled a familiar smell.

The smell of a human being in fear. That was a sign that this pit was close to my desired goal.

‘This is the weak point of the headquarters’ shielding wall.’

The shield wall protects the entire command center in the form of a cylindrical pillar protruding above the ground. This means that facilities planted underground, such as underground bunkers, cannot be protected.

If the wall the enemy has built is strong, you can just go back.

‘In the game, there was someone who plastered the entire basement with the same material as the shielding wall…’

It wouldn’t be easy for pirates who bend their backs to buy a rail gun to do that.

Even if the enemy does that, there are plenty of ways to break through. I just didn’t do it because I don’t need to do it now.

I reactivated the Herald of Chaos that had been canceled due to shooting Psychic Breath. Mutants within a 500m radius of me responded to the supernatural wavelength. Some of those who were frantically hitting the shield wall of the headquarters jumped over the pit under my guidance.

I, along with No. 26, threw myself into the pit of the abyss.

The bunker down there and those who believe it is the safest place.

Chaos will come upon them.
