Became an Evolving Space Monster - Chapter 377
Only Noblemtl
After a short word, the pirate’s body disappeared into the darkness. Then, tentacles that looked exactly like the ones he had just seen burst out of the freezer.
“Hey, what’s that?!”
“Everyone shoot… Eww?!!”
“Hey, save me! Knock knock.”
“Kwaaaaa… squeak”
The panicked pirates tried to open fire, but the tentacles were faster. The tentacles, which were as big as a grown man’s thighs, grabbed the pirates one by one and dragged them into the freezer.
“Dude, what the fuck!”
As his comrades were being slaughtered, the veteran pirate quickly escaped from the kitchen and ran towards the wide open restaurant door.
It was clear that everyone on this ship had been attacked by that monster. This fact must be conveyed to everyone.
Just as he was thinking that and about to leave the restaurant, his legs stopped.
“Hey, what the heck?! Why is it like this?”
No matter how much I strained my legs, they wouldn’t move. Not just my legs, but my entire body froze as if it had turned to stone.
As he struggled to escape from the unknown force, a familiar voice came to his ears.
“I guess we’ll have to go to the situation room to find out.”
“Are you saying this ship will soon be ours?”
“Where are you going?”
“Hey. What is that?”
“Fuck. Save me.”
The veteran pirate realized that his voice was included in the chattering of the crowd, as well as the voices of his comrades.
The entity that had bound him with an invisible force slowly approached from behind. Pink tentacles wrapped around his arms and legs.
There was only one thing he could do in the face of such an overwhelming presence.
“Got it.”
It was silence.
–
“There are no records?”
“Yes. It’s as if someone came and erased everything, so there are no records left.”
“What about the communication log? I sent a communication 20 minutes ago as well?”
“I checked and that was completely gone too.”
Se-chan, who went straight to the situation room immediately after infiltrating the ship, couldn’t help but be flustered by the unexpected situation.
‘What’s going on?’
There was not a single person on the ship, and the communication records from just a few dozen minutes ago were erased. I couldn’t understand what Customer S was thinking.
‘A trap? If so, it should have attacked already.’
“Who are you!”
At that moment, one of his subordinates shouted loudly. Sechan and the other pirates responded by hastily raising their weapons.
“I saw a shadow moving in the hallway.”
“It looks like a human. I’ll chase after you.”
There was nothing more to be gained from the situation room. Sechan and the pirates escaped outside. As the subordinate had said, a disheveled human was seen running away.
“Don’t kill them, capture them alive.”
“yes!”
Currently, all of Sechan’s subordinates are wearing reinforced suits. It was very easy to capture survivors who were not armed at all.
After a while, the fugitive knelt before Sechan.
“There’s no use running away. As you know, the air here isn’t good enough to get out naked.”
“… … .”
“Where have all your colleagues gone?”
“… … .”
The fugitive did not respond to Sechan’s words. He just stared blankly at his face.
Then the pirate behind him stomped on his thigh with his foot.
“Ugh?!”
“This fucking kid isn’t going to answer?”
“stop.”
The opponent was writhing in pain. Sechan stopped his subordinate right before his leg was about to break. When the subordinate moved his foot away, the fugitive let out a sigh of relief.
“Let me ask you one last time. Where are your colleagues and superiors?”
“Are you the leader of these people?”
“This kid, he answers questions with questions?”
“Quiet. My name is Sechan Hamilton, the leader of the Hamilton Cartel, here to deal with you guys.”
The fugitive opened his eyes wide upon hearing his words.
“Is this really Sechan?”
“okay.”
“… If you are the one I serve, please follow me.”
The fugitive who said so staggered to his feet. When his subordinate tried to subdue him again, Sechan raised his hand to stop him.
Judging from the fugitive’s actions, one could tell what kind of condition those hiding on this ship were in.
The blackened clothes, pale face, and emaciated body were absolutely not something that could have been created artificially. It was obvious that Customer S and his subordinates were in a situation where they were on the verge of death.
If you want to survive, you’ll need the help of the Hamilton Cartel, whether you like it or not.
“I will follow him.”
Sechan and his group moved under the guidance of the fugitive.
The fugitive, who had been limping, stopped in front of the cargo hold. When he opened the door, a thick darkness with only a ray of light greeted the visitor from outside.
“Is it in here?”
“No, he is down there.”
“under?”
The fugitive walked in without answering. The pirates followed behind, activating their infrared surveillance vision.
“?!”
“Captain, what is this…?”
As soon as they entered, the pirates immediately noticed that something was not right in the cargo hold.
Inside, the cargo and containers inside, the ceiling and walls, everything was covered in a strange slime. And the entire floor, except for the area near the entrance, was gone. A large pit was left where the ship’s floor had been.
A pit that appeared to be made of the same material as the mucus that covered all sides. It was so deep that you couldn’t see the bottom.
“What is all this?”
“The creatures he made.”
“You’ve been saying that guy all along. Is that person’s name Salman?”
“If you want to know the name, please ask him directly.”
“what?”
The moment Sechan asked again, the space where they were standing shook violently.
It’s not an earthquake. It’s something very large moving inside the pit.
Something terrifying beyond his imagination is happening on this planet.
‘This situation is not normal!’
Sechan felt a chill run down his spine and quickly connected the communication.
“Captain! This is Sechan! Get here right now….”
“Captain, sir, sizzle, monster, sizzle, invade the ship, sizzle, we’re all dead, sizzle, aaaahhhh!”
“Vice captain? Vice captain! What the hell!”
“Captain, I can’t contact the other guys either!”
Likewise, the subordinates who tried to communicate with other colleagues shouted in trembling voices. Akmun Sechan grabbed the fugitive by the collar.
“This fucking kid! What the hell did you do!”
“I serve the Great One. He wants your wisdom.”
“You crazy bastard!”
Sechan hit the fugitive hard with his fist. The opponent’s face was crushed by the blow from the reinforced fist. The corpse, with its face smashed, staggered and fell into the pit.
‘We need to get out of here immediately!’
There are still men left to search on other ships, but there is no time to take care of them. If there is a problem with the ship, then it is really over. We must return to the transport ship as quickly as possible.
“Get out of here immediately and run to the transport ship!”
Sechan gave the order, but his subordinates did not move. They just stared blankly in the direction Sechan was.
“Kids, are you out of your minds?”
“Ha, Captain. Behind….”
“what?”
The subordinate pointed behind him with a trembling hand.
Sechan, who turned his head, could see why his subordinates were unable to move.
Behind him was a ‘thing’ of enormous size.
“Geu-geu-geu”
“… … .”
The being that stretched its long neck out of the pit moved its jaw and lightly swallowed the corpse that had fallen earlier. Even after seeing this, Sechan and the pirates could not move.
No matter how much you modify your genes, or how much you equip yourself with powerful weapons and armor, you cannot defeat the being before your eyes. No matter how strong the human body becomes, it cannot walk on stars.
The same goes for the being before them. ‘It’ was something that far surpassed human understanding.
“You are the carrier.”
The voice of the fugitive who had just died flowed out of ‘it’s’ mouth.
“I hope what’s in your brain is useful.”
Only then did Sechan understand the meaning of the words he had left behind before he died.
He will not die.
I could only open my mouth and shed tears at that fact.
[Zuzuzuzuzuzu (Is this the guy?)]
“Huh?”
A pangolin as big as a hill blinked its four eyes. The griffon beast next to it let out a thought wave.
“The one brought by the bad master. Can you check if his smell is similar to yours?”
“Geuuuuu”
The giant beast slowly shook its head at the gentle wave of emotion. Then it brought its head closer to the human who was much smaller than it.
“… … .”
The human trembled as he stood before a beast much larger than himself, knowing full well that even the armor he was wearing could not protect him.
Suddenly, a giant mountain crawler snorted loudly.
“Grrrrrrr”
“That’s right. The author supplied supplies to Salman.”
[Z (Yeah)]
I didn’t even plant any parasites on purpose because I was afraid the guy would get confused when he smelled them.
I stretched out my wing arm and picked him up. Now I had to take out what was in this little pirate’s head.
“Okay, wait a minute! I’ll tell you whatever you want!”
“Are you going to tell everything?”
“Yes! I’ll tell you everything I did with Customer S! Even the things that bastard told me to do, so please spare me!”
The pirate who was held tightly in my hand, Sechan, was desperate. He must have thought that he could escape if he could just get out of here.
‘But what should I do?’
The pirate ship floating in space was taken care of by Isabelle, and the transport ship that landed on the ground was taken care of by Adhai. Even if the bastard is lucky enough to escape from me, there is no way for him to escape from this planet.
It would be safe to say that his fate was decided when he first decided to come here.
‘It’s something to be thankful for from my perspective.’
Today is the third day since Salman died.
The ancient mountain crawler he brought said that there were people who visited Asuka 44 regularly. Whenever they came, there was always the smell of food and blood.
My Heavenly Mother and I assumed that they were in charge of supply and transportation. Asuka 44 is an unterraformed planet. Naturally, everything must be procured from outside. There must also be a supply manager outside the planet who is in charge of this.
Of course, since Mountain Crawler wasn’t human, he didn’t know where the supply person was or when he would arrive.
Fortunately, the problem was solved thanks to the remnants of Salman remaining on the planet. The defense fleet in charge of the battle was annihilated, but the ships that left the base for reconnaissance still remained.
I scoured the planet looking for survivors and got the information I needed from them.
They said that the supply crew would arrive about three days after Salman’s death, because the base and the other side had already agreed to meet in a week four days ago.
Anyway, so we waited at Asuka44 for three days.
If he hadn’t come by today, I was thinking of leaving this planet.
‘That’s how it was, and things worked out well.’
“This is the last one. A restaurant? Why is there a baby crying here?”
