Became an Evolving Space Monster - Chapter 415
Only Noblemtl
‘Huh? You want me to come closer?’
The heads bobbed their snouts up and down.
When I got closer, I saw that it was quite large. At first glance, it seemed to be easily over a few hundred meters in diameter. The surface was shiny and flawless, as if it had been carved from obsidian.
He flapped his wings and extended his fighting arms to touch the surface. The surface rippled like a pebble dropped on the water, and his fingertips sank in without any resistance.
‘I guess I can go in.’
There must be a reason why Aimop’s heads guided me here. I jumped into the sphere.
The moment my body passed through the surface membrane, the surrounding scenery changed in an instant. I, who had been flying until just now, was now standing in a black space with no light.
‘Here?’
Every time I move my body, concentric ripples are created on the floor. When I see that, I remember.
‘… It’s a place I came to when I was growing up as an adult.’
The first time I saw a vision was when I entered Kochi to become an adult. At that time, I came in a human body, different from now. At that time, I walked through space for a while and met Aimorph in the fluid stage, and then I woke up.
Maybe I’ll have to meet someone again this time.
‘Let’s walk for now.’
Just as I had when I first came here, I walked through a desolate space with nothing in it.
How long did I walk like that? As I continued to follow the swaying waves, something caught my eye.
It was a man. A man with a large burn scar on his face.
I was on guard, thinking that I might have to fight the ‘real me’ again, but ‘I’ opened my mouth.
“No. I don’t fight.”
‘what?’
“I’m not lying.”
‘Real me’ raising both arms as if there was no hostility. Seeing her speak fluently even though I wasn’t asked, it seemed like she was reading my mind.
“you’re right.”
‘I’ nods in agreement with my question.
“I can read your thoughts because I intervened in a situation where your brain was being reconfigured. That’s why I took this form.”
‘Who are you?’
“I am an information functionary in charge of selecting recipients and coordinating thought systems in the projection system. I have intervened to convey important information to you.”
‘Projection system? Wait… No way?’
System, recipient, selection.
When I heard those three words, something suddenly came to mind.
“We cannot answer this question in detail due to security reasons.”
Even though he said he couldn’t answer, that alone was enough of an answer.
That being who introduced himself as an information function body.
It seems like he is the one who brought the rankers into this world.
–
Asuka 44, a planet filled with fire and magma.
Until recently, it was the site of the cult empire’s secret villa, but now there is no trace of it.
It’s because of mysterious monsters that suddenly appeared one day.
The villa was completely destroyed by monsters that came from space. The troops guarding it were also completely destroyed. The crashed spaceship and its wreckage were the only things that proved that Asuka 44 was once a place touched by civilization.
So where are the beings that destroyed the intelligent beings of the stars and what are they doing?
Some of them have gone far away to hunt. Some are looking after their new companions underground.
And some of them were into higher-dimensional activities.
A ship made an emergency landing on the black ground. In the silence of the ship, only the dining car was noisy.
Under the flickering lights, skinned animal corpses and various items were strewn about in a disorderly manner. It was a space that was more like a slaughterhouse than a kitchen. Inside, the people who had ruined the dining car were there.
“People eat food by sprinkling something called ‘seasoning’ on it!”
“Seasoning?” “Food” “Same”
“No. The seasoning is softer and stickier than the food, so it’s different.”
Pink Sea Demon, No. 26, plunged his tentacle into the metal pot in front of him. He stirred the inside of the pot once and took it out, and a liquid with a pungent smell emanated from the surface.
“Look.”
Adhai, who was lying on the metal floor, dabbed the liquid with his front paw. Soon, the little Gallagon nodded.
“Young compatriot” “Food” “Similar” “Sticky” “Soft”
“right?”
Even while checking with the ‘little one’, the other tentacles of No. 26 continued to move without rest. As one struck the lava raptor’s corpse hard and crushed it, the other tentacle swept the meat and put it into the pot.
Adhai, who was examining the liquid on his toenails, soon lost interest and shook his foot to shake it off.
“But” “Food” “Seasoning” “Meal” “Same” “If you eat” “The end”
“Wrong! It’s much more delicious if you mix the food and seasoning and ‘cook’ it!”
“cooking?”
PS-111, who had been observing the two since earlier, joined the conversation.
“Higher intelligence has the habit of processing organic matter in order to safely and effectively consume nutrients. The actions of the main controller can also be referred to as cooking.”
“Yeah. Cooking!”
“Cooking” “Troublesome”
As PS-111 finished explaining, No. 26’s body lit up and showed satisfaction. On the other hand, Adhai tapped the floor with his hind feet as if he was not interested.
The red camera lens of the Screamer who saw the scene blinked and recorded the situation.
‘Record registration. Main controller’s response is positive. Seems to be due to high academic enthusiasm. Codename Little Baby, negative. Understood the explanation but not interested. Interesting difference.’
Little is known about Sea Demon and Gallagon, even after looking through the data left behind by Pyra Eleven, a member of the Machine Council. So PS-111 has been keeping a close eye on the two Controllers whenever they show unusual behavior.
Of course, I don’t have any particular intention of reporting to anyone. I just want to know about the ecology of those strong creatures. In human terms, it would be a kind of hobby.
‘Besides, it’s interesting because it has a different side to the information I know.’
Although it is difficult to generalize due to lack of information, Sea Demons are known to be much more dangerous and violent than Gallagons.
Among the primitive civilizations of ocean-type planets, there are often cases of Sea Demons being worshipped as gods. According to records, Sea Demons live alone and are hostile to all other living things. As can be seen from nicknames such as ‘Shadow of the Sea’ and ‘Devil of the Deep’, they are described as ruthless and terrifying beings.
It would be impossible to cook like this now.
“The older child likes delicious food, so he will like cooking too.”
“Surely” “That’s” “Fact”
Adhai, who had been watching No. 26 with a calm attitude, nodded in agreement.
“Big man” “Food” “Taste” “A lot” “Know” “Often” “Take care”
“That’s right. I like something delicious more than something tasteless.”
Hearing that, Little Gallagon got up from his seat. Then he went into the freezer inside the restaurant and took something out.
“Then” “This” “Put it in”
“What is that?”
What Adhai brought was a bottle of high-quality wine that the ship’s owners drank.
“Red Star” “When I Went” “What I Ate” “Similar”
“I! I know! That’s called alcohol!”
“Confirmed to be wine made from cactus from Berzan 02. It is confirmed to be the same brand as the wine drunk at the mansion of slave trader Robets in the water fortress.”
“Alcohol?” “Wine?”
“When I drink alcohol, I feel full and happy!”
“The ingredients contained in this wine act on the brain and are effective in relieving stress. Intellectuals mainly drink it to satisfy their reproductive needs rather than their appetite.”
“Reproductive desire?” “Really?”
“Yes. According to a comprehensive analysis of various data… .”
PS-111 was going on and on about alcohol-related knowledge, but the ‘little girl’ wasn’t there. Her two amethyst eyes were fixed squarely on the wine bottle.
“This” “If there’s a lot” “Adult” “Will it work?”
“At Megacop, you mix different types of alcohol and drink them… Yes?”
“Big adult” “Adult” “Me” “Adult” “Copulation” “Possible”
PS-111 stopped talking at the unexpected remark.
“Ham Ort” “I said” “The leader” “Quickly” “I know” “It’s necessary”
“Is it to prevent problems from occurring in the group?”
“Yeah” “That” “Leader” “Responsibility”
That wasn’t a wrong statement.
Gallagons have a habit of serving the most outstanding individual in the pack as their leader. However, the Aadhai pack is ruled by the second strongest, Ham Ort. He acts as the leader in place of his daughter who is active outside.
This is possible because Adhai is a female Gallagon.
There is no one in the group strong enough to be the queen’s companion. So, I will go out and get the eggs of the superior males. This was Adhai’s justification.
There was no Gallagon who did not know who the ‘superior male’ referred to. And how strong the being who was being courted by the queen was. So the Gallagons could understand.
However, it would not be a good idea to continue wasting time. The young ones that had just hatched from the eggs would become confused as to who the leader was.
“So” “I know” “I need it”
At that moment, a short, thick crack echoed through the dining car. It was the sound of No. 26 crushing a metal chair with his tentacles.
“no!”
“Why?” “Me” “Enough” “Growth” “Egg” “Laying” “Possible”
“I told you not to talk about it! Why are you breaking your promise!?”
“Flock” “Egg” “Need” “Leader” “Duty” “Compatriots” “Expecting”
“You made a promise to me first, so you have to keep your promise!”
“Then” “Same-gender” “I don’t like it” “Me” “Big adult” “Little adult” “I learned” “The crowd” “Protecting” “Priority”
Adhai, who expresses his thoughts more logically than before.
Number 26 was very annoyed, but he couldn’t get angry because the little one’s claim was not wrong.
But that doesn’t mean there was nothing to say.
The one who spent the longest time with the big babies was No. 26. If that was the case, then shouldn’t he at least make babies with the big babies before the little ones? I don’t know about anything else, but this is something I absolutely could not compromise on.
“I’m the one who makes babies with the big baby first! I’m the closest to the big baby!”
“Negative” “Me” “Big adult” “Close” “Little adult” “Same”
“No! The big baby likes me the most!????
“negative!”
The air in the dining car quickly froze over due to the two enraged dangerous creatures.
Numerous eyeballs sprouted on the body and tentacles of No. 26. On the other side, Adhai’s scales turned red like a burning flame.
It was a very tense situation. Just before the two clashed, PS-111 got in between.
“Please calm down. There is no point in fighting here.”
“Don’t stop me, my friend.”
“Sick Child” “Maybe” “Adult” “Know” “What do you want?”
“Aimop’s descendants are an interesting research topic, but there are problems before that.”
“problem?”
“Explanation” “Required”
“It has not been confirmed whether or not Aimorph is capable of reproduction, and how. Until this is confirmed, it is impossible to produce offspring.”
At the words that mating was currently impossible, the two released their fighting stance.
“Understand” “No” “Big man” “Female” “Interest” “A lot” “Tail” “Sometimes” “Look”
Adhai wagged his tail.
‘Review of old records. For male gallagons, the horns are important, and for females, the shape and size of the tail are important. The tail of a small baby is effective in attracting sexual favors from gallagons.’
Despite its small size, Adhai’s tail was famous among the Gallagons. The males were fascinated by its enchanting form and movements, and the females were impressed by its sleekly arranged tail scales. No wonder even PS-111 knew about it.
But soon the enchanting queen’s wings drooped.
“But” “That Far” “Pretty” “Just Words”
“Are you unable to have a big baby?”
