How to Live as an Immortal - Chapter 347

Wearing the protective gear, my athletic ability improved significantly, but it wasn’t enough to compare to an unmanned vehicle.
If we confront each other directly, we will surely lose.
It may seem like a dream to have an advantage over monsters, but it wasn’t really like that. Doping made a significant difference in the speed of regeneration.
The proof is that the flesh is visible to the naked eye.
But that wasn’t enough.
To stop the Queen’s advance.
Pushik.
He takes a syringe out of his pouch and sticks it into his thigh.
If the drug is overused, the artificially stimulated cell division may not stop, which could lead to malignant tumors, but this was not the time to worry about that.
Because when you die, everything becomes useless.
The distance between the two is only 30 meters.
Even the Queen, aware that she is hiding in the noise, does not act tyrannically and does not move an inch.
The last piece of rock fell, and silence reigned in the room.
I roll my eyes and look straight at the hole in my back. It’s just big enough to fit through if I crouch down and crawl inside.
It was a route I had already used once.
It has been confirmed that the bulkhead will overflow once you get past that point.
Even as a queen, she couldn’t just destroy everything she came across. Among them would be the pillars that supported the underground.
In an instant, the Queen raises her head.
“There it is.”
“You are there.”
“You’re so arrogant. No one has ever said something like that in front of me and survived.”
“You must have noticed. You can’t kill me.”
We may be able to coexist peacefully, but no one lives to expect such a future.
“So let’s agree here. Let’s just say that our meeting today was a coincidence.”
Coincidence―, the queen bursts into laughter upon hearing that word.
If we had met in a busy area, it might have been like that. But this place was at least 200 meters underground. It was a forbidden place that could never be reached unless you arrived with a clear purpose.
“I wish you would tell me how you came to be here. Then I would have no reason not to spare your life.”
“I told you, it was a coincidence.”
“It’s not you who decides that, it’s me!”
The queen, who flew up like a hawk, was aiming for the ground.
Boom!
The ground collapsed and fell down as he struck with the determination to bury the person. It was a truly terrifying aftermath, but it was not like Fermat remained silent.
No, rather, I judged it to be a red flag and scratched the nape of his neck with an aggressive knife.
The carotid artery was torn in an instant.
At the same time, cracks appear once again in the ancient fortress.
Even the indestructible diamond would be helpless against excessive bleeding. The queen, whose vital point had been struck, instinctively grabbed the back of her neck.
“you……!”
“Just wait, I’ll cut off your breath soon.”
Having achieved his goal, Fermat quickly threw himself into the air hole.
Her heightened senses accurately captured the retreating Fermat’s presence, but the Queen was unable to extend her fist.
Because the damage that had to be endured was not small just to chase away a single bug.
The queen moved her involuntary muscles to stop the bleeding from the wound and bit her molars as the fever rose late in the day.
“Kuhaha, I guess I’ve become a toothless tiger too.”
If it had been during his reckless prime, he would have taken the plunge and risked his life. But as he grew older, he became more sinister and had more distracting thoughts.
The extension of this is the hesitation that prevents one from counterattacking.
The delusion that if you keep pushing, the other person might react in a way that exceeds expectations is holding you back.
This is the result of not trusting my martial arts skills.
Even though I had accumulated a lot of training, it seemed that there was still distrust in my subconscious.
Boom, boom, boom!
The queen, who faced her own self-portrait that had surrendered to reality, stamped her feet so hard that the ground shook.
He tried to become an iron man, but he couldn’t become an iron man. He was just an iron man pretending to be an iron man.
“Eww!”
The wounded beast howls.
With fangs sharper than before.

Proxy War 3 Solcha.
Gaon, who woke up in an unknown motel on the outskirts of District 39, checked his device. Sadly, it seemed like none of the candidates who had been eliminated last night were there. This is proof that the duel between the fighters is fierce and intense.
I quietly walk to the window and open part of the curtain.
There are quite a few patrol drones flying around the streets.
Considering that it’s the underworld, it’s almost like they’ve declared war on crime.
But Gaon was not mistaken.
Why not? All the flying machines like worker bees are organized to target one person.
It seems like being so active yesterday was poisonous.
It was then that Snow White was contacted through Dobby.
Gaon quickly called her after hearing that she had found out something about the exploded plant.
“… … Did you find anything?”
[I’m not sure, but]
“say it.”
[First of all, it seems like a third force is active within the plant, as you said. But it seems strange when you look at it that way.]
“What kind of point?”
[Because an outside force wouldn’t be able to conceive of such a perfect ‘incident’]
It is a plan that cannot be carried out without obtaining the internal structure in advance. So I think it was leaked from Baekdu―
[It’s actually been less than a few months since we purchased and expanded the plant. What do you mean, a few months? It wasn’t even clear whether we would purchase it or not until a few weeks ago.]
Yes, the reason Baekdu wanted to operate the plant additionally was because the deal with Stream Rail was concluded.
“What is the exact time?”
[After the Cannibalism Gate exploded]
An incident that turned society upside down when the identity of a ‘gathering’ formed by the upper class to enjoy secret hobbies was exposed.
As the related stock prices fell, layoffs and inventory clearances became rampant. Unusable factories were also put up for sale.
The plant that Baekdu occupied was one of them.
But that wasn’t what Gaon noticed. The trigger. That was the only thing that caught his eye.
“… …Trian?”
[That’s right, the previous owner of the plant is Trian’s secondary vendor]
This means that if Trian wanted to, he could figure out the plant’s structure in detail.
In that moment, a thought passed down my spine like a revelation.
A composition in which a specific person cannot help but come to mind no matter how hard you try to ignore it.
‘Samael?’
Yes, she would have a lot of sympathy for the human being called Gaon and the company called Baekdu.
Because Gaon had to resign from the board of directors after exposing the cannibalism gate.
Of course, it was an agenda that had been coordinated in advance, but accepting the result is a separate issue.
It might have been humiliating from Samael’s point of view.
So much so that I keep thinking about it over and over again and dream of revenge.
It may be a logical leap, but there is no contradictory circumstance.
As a former director, she would have been able to get information about the proxy war in advance and make moves.
Of course, making assumptions was forbidden.
Who knew that she too, like MTI, would be someone’s sacrificial lamb?
And what we need to determine now is not whether it is consistent or not.
“Why do we need special purpose Androids?”
If Samael was really behind it, it would be an incomprehensible act. If it was to that extent, it could have been purchased legitimately through the exchange. However, judging by the fact that he insisted on extreme means, it must mean that he wanted to avoid the eyes of the ark.
It was said that there was such a grand purpose, but Gaon’s narrow-mindedness was unable to fathom it.
So I decided to invite one guest.
“Miss Phytoncide.”
[Yes, yes. This is the 24-hour Q&A center. So, what are you curious about today?]
“It could have just been a simple phone call. Am I upset?”
Gaon unconsciously retorted in a businesslike tone, but―
[Yes, I’m doing well. Except that my research isn’t going well. Then should I hang up?]
“……sorry.”
I had no choice but to surrender in less than a second to Noah’s stubborn attitude.
[Enough with the nonsense. Well, you’re an old man. Tell me what’s going on. I have to eat lunch.]
“That’s what I mean… … .”
Describe the general situation.
This time, the person who designed the artificial intelligence of the special purpose android that Baekdu is producing was Noah. She would know more about its purpose than anyone else.
[You can do it. It’s a very ambiguous topic. After all, Android is up to the user.]
“But there must be a reason why you specifically targeted Baekdu’s plant.”
[What the old man said is definitely right]
“Hmm,” said Noah, who had been drooling, and after a while opened his mouth.
[The Ion Trident is an advanced nuclear fusion reactor, so it requires the application of several next-generation technologies to build it. Of course, this applies not only to the facility, but also to the androids.]
If we look at the special purpose Android itself, it was no different from the current generation. No, to be precise, it was specialized in one area.
[If there is one feature, it would be that we can observe the microscopic world in real time by entrusting calculations to a quantum computer.]
“More details.”
[That means, no matter how many times you perform the ultra-fine process, it won’t fail.]
It was a kind of real-time simulation.
Applying virtual reality that is infinitely similar to reality to work, and interpreting situations that will occur in advance.
Since the success or failure of a process can be determined by differences of nanometers or picometers, being able to immediately identify and correct errors was a huge advantage.
“To take something like that away… … .”
[Isn’t that what you mean by wanting to create nano machines or a computer? Well, I don’t know if it’s possible for someone who steals other people’s stuff.]
Special purpose androids were ultimately just tools. That is, tools that implemented theories or hypotheses. Without the necessary technology, they were just a burden that was worse than nothing.
[Maybe they want to catch a glimpse of the civilization the Second has achieved. Their technology, no matter how small, starts from the atomic level.]
It is common sense that alloy hexagon dice cannot be refined using normal methods.
Although it was a remark made with such an idea in mind, Noah let out a snort as if he thought it was funny even after he said it himself.
[Absurd… … .]
“No, you said it well, Miss Phytoncide.”
Of course, this story did not apply to Gaon. Unfortunately, I had been exposed to a lot of information after the proxy war began. It was not like there were no such things.
For example, the most important object among objects of Able.
Bubble Hole―
‘BH or something.’
