Living in a World That Is Destined for Destruction - Living in a World That Is Destined for Destruction chapter 120

＜ Episode 120 ＞

I don’t know since when I had consciousness.

Because I was buried in the dark for an infinitely long time, and I thought it would be like that forever.

accidental discovery.

Numerous researchers were attached to the creature that was miraculously born among the waste, and as various experiments were conducted, the mother body gradually became aware of itself.

The researchers’ conclusion is that it is a kind of homunculus.

Creating life in Luna is taboo, but corporations weren’t the group to care about that, and neither was Hindel Bionic.

There were numerous research tasks, and for some reason, the discarded homunculus was created by a miraculous mutation between chemical and magical waste.

Excited by the appearance of a creature they had never even thought of, researchers conducted all sorts of experiments, and even Rupert, who was struggling with his business failure, added strength after receiving the report.

An accident that occurred while the experiment was in progress.

No, maybe it was not an accident, but a maternal instinct.

In an instant, the mother body that swallowed the Dane desperately proceeded to mutate, and thus the first mutant was born, and research was diverted in a completely different direction.

simplicity and honesty.

The surface of the cocoon cracked and one creature fell to the floor.

slap.

It was a place full of toxic gases and all sorts of pollutants, making it difficult for ordinary humans to take a breath, but the newly born mutants who had just finished their transformation stood up on their feet as if nothing was wrong.

“Ohhh!”

A Dane with a thrilled face hurriedly ran over and embraced the newborn mutant, and the sight of the mutant examining the body of the Dane with wriggling tentacles was absolutely not normal.

It was disgusting to see it, but the researchers desperately looked at the data by relying on the magic on the protective clothing.

“Should it be considered stable?”

“I guess so? The success rate was less than 5%, but I raised it to about 30%. The numbers are also increasing. And that’s what’s important.”

The researcher pointed to another screen and continued.

“The success rate of the human base has skyrocketed. More than 60%.”

A dangerous light appeared in the eyes of the researcher who was looking at the monitor with complicated eyes.

“then······.”

“···yes. It’s a number that’s good enough to gamble on.”

Conversations were as dangerous as the dangerous glances, and a strange atmosphere began to spread among the researchers.

Those who worked as corporate researchers had high social status and high salaries, so they lived a decent life, but isn’t that everything in Luna?

strength.

In the end, the most important thing in Luna is the individual’s strength, and those who can be seen as the closest to those with abilities had a much stronger desire for power than others.

It is said that martial arts is relatively easy to enter, but it covers people nonetheless.

Extremely speaking, the researchers in this position are failures who did not become competent.

By the way.

A way to have power equal to that of a competent person appeared before my eyes.

“It’s a little annoying.”

Kwajijik!

A strong body that can walk around naked without the need for protective clothing.

Take a look at Dane’s strength to casually tear off the remains of a huge cocoon and throw it away.

Although there is a minor drawback of having to give up being human, it was very attractive to be able to obtain power that is as good as, or possibly surpassed, that of a person with abilities.

Some gulped, some gave dangerous glances, and Dane gathered the newborn mutants together and gathered them to one side, a ghastly grin on his lips.

Dung, Dung, Dung.

For some reason, Dane’s smile grew thicker and thicker, just like the lively mother’s cry.

aaagh!

The body that was about to continue walking stopped while watching the mutant whose entire body was crushed with a scream that pierced people’s hearts.

“······Well.”

John’s gaze, contemplating something with a light moan, turned to the cave he had passed so far.

The spears made of rock walls pierce the corpse of a mutant that disappears as ashes.

John smiled bitterly as he looked at the cave, which had almost lost its original appearance and had become like a barbed wire.

“Drunk with power.”

clap.

The feel of the revolver is cold.

John fired only four bullets in this battle.

Contrary to John’s usual fighting style that actively uses firearms, it was a battle centered on this ability, and John regained his senses with that sense of incongruity.

The total amount of this ability, which increased rapidly the more mutants were defeated, made possible things that John had only imagined before entering the cave, and allowed him to continue an overwhelming battle, but there was a lot of backlash.

‘The output has gone down. It is said that there was a lot of waste.’

It was the opposite result of John’s tendency to always prepare for the end of the end, and that’s why John was alert.

“…not yet.”

If you continue to grow like this, it won’t be too difficult to reach the superhuman hierarchy, and if that happens, it will be a skill-based battle, but that’s not the case now.

If you get drunk on your abilities, you will see the bottom, and that moment may be the last for John.

“Whoa.”

With a light sigh, John took out Lina’s booster and inhaled.

Fluorescent gas passed through the nasal cavity and reached the brain, and the stimulated organs began to emit enormous output.

How long did it take to check the amount of equipment in the inventory and move slowly?

“Hmm.”

He was aware that he was digging underground because he was drawing a gentle slope, but John’s expression frowned at the increasingly muddy air.

Uh.

The organ pulled out this ability, and John’s gaze contemplating the microscopic world contemplated the turbid air that had begun to surround him.

Hung.

A faint light arose from John’s whole body, and at that moment, the toxic substances that permeated the air were all purified.

“Sigh.”

The clean air that seemed to be in the middle of the forest penetrated deep into John’s lungs, and John’s eyes widened as he breathed in the fresh air.

“I didn’t expect this.”

John’s eyebrows deepened as he purged the toxic gas trying to penetrate his body in real time.

A situation in which the environment itself is a threat.

He would probably grow stronger the further he went down into this cave, and it was certain that he would be unable to breathe properly at the end.

It would be nice to have protective clothing, but it’s difficult to fight properly wearing such a thing.

In the end, it means that you have to purify the surroundings while protecting your body with rigid body technique, and that will be quite a nerve-wracking task.

That moment when I was organizing my thoughts while frowning at the complicated situation.

that buck

With the sound of footsteps echoing through the cave, someone walked out from the other side of the darkness.

The figure of the man who came into John’s gaze, who had penetrated the darkness with this ability, was bizarre.

At first glance, he looked like a man with a normal face, but other than that, everything else was foreign.

The skin exposed because he was not wearing clothes gave off a feeling close to metal, and although he had a normal face, it seemed that blades were embedded in his teeth.

There was nothing where genital organs should be, and the large mass of flesh jutting out from the back looked like an open palm.

The first humanoid mutant I’ve ever seen.

John and the monster’s eyes met.

They were about 50 meters apart, so considering the darkness of the cave, it was normal for them not to be able to tell each other apart, but that didn’t bother them in any way.

The eyes that were closer to beasts than human ones never looked friendly, and the murderous intent and madness blended together, so I didn’t think they were human at all.

Of course, mutants aren’t human.

How long has it been since we stared at each other like that?

“I didn’t know you would come down here. But that ends here.”

An ominous sound like scraping metal echoed through the cavern, and awls protruded from the wing-like flesh wriggling loudly.

Just looking at the awl the size of a human forearm gave an eerie feeling, and it was obvious that nothing good would happen if it was stabbed because it was threateningly shiny.

The corner of the monster’s mouth was wide open, and the mouth full of teeth that had been torn down to the bottom of the ears were like an inverted blade, and it seemed as if all flesh would be ripped away the moment they brushed against it.

“Krrr.”

The time when a bloody force arises from the slowly crouching monster’s body and is about to attack John at any moment.

Fuquahak!

As it should have been, the magic wand that appeared in John’s hand spewed fire, and a ballistic body the size of a human head collapsed the space in an instant.

The monster’s eyes widened at the completely unexpected attack, and the warhead arrived at the same time.

Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!

Explosive energy spread throughout the narrow cave, and the flames rose rapidly, heating up the surroundings in an instant.

Chick.

John, who stacked a solid panel in front to offset the impact energy, put a cigarette in his mouth.

Sizzle.

Due to the instant high temperature, the body fluids of the mutants that had been applied to the mutants’ caves boiled all at once, and John, who ignited the fire more easily than usual, sucked in the smoke.

“after.”

John’s gaze, exhaling the smoke he had sucked in, contemplated the microscopic world.

John, who grasped the structure and rigidity of the cave in an instant, nodded, and threw the projectile to the ground, holding the magic wand again in John’s hand.

Poop!

Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwa Kwam!

The bullets that protruded through the panels folded the space again, and the huge shock energy rang the cave again, shaking it as if it would collapse, but John turned the tobacco he had ingested casually into dust.

“It’s okay. It would be best to burn it.”

The rapidly rising temperature was unable to escape to the outside and overlapped as it was, as if entering the middle of a scorching hell, burning all of the mutant body fluids and toxic substances in the air.

It was so full of gas that it obscured his gaze, but that was no obstacle to John.

Roaring.

The sticky flames burned as if the monster’s entire body would be burned, and that’s when I thought that I would be able to deal with the monster without too much difficulty.

slap!

Something fell from the monster’s body with a loud sound, and the monster broke through the flames.

“…you bastard!”

The sound of metal resonated in the cave, and the sound became power and squeezed John’s body, but it could not break through the rigid body technique.

The monster’s face didn’t look too good.

The shiny skin was covered with soot, and the large mass of flesh on the back of her back was peeling away from her body and burning.

The appearance of a wounded beast.

The monster’s voice flowed through his teeth.

“What’s your relationship with the blond kid?”

John and Lina’s appearances are completely different, so it was difficult to prove their relationship with just their appearance, but the monster had something to guess.

It was hard to imagine that there would be many people who would launch such a radical attack as soon as they saw their opponent.

“… Hoo.”

The corners of John’s mouth lifted and the corners of his eyes twitched slightly.

“You are the one who attacked my child.”

clap.

A revolver in one hand and a military bayonet in the other.

“······yes. You mean it’s you who educated me like that?”

Kigigi Geek.

A noise arose from the monster’s whole body, and his skin stood up all over, but it looked as if his entire body was wrapped in an awl.

The child’s fault is the parent’s fault.

Although John wasn’t Lina’s parent, the monster who guessed that he was her guardian thought that was enough.

“I wanted to meet you!”

The monster flew away with a loud cry.

“Me too.”

John, whose eyes were colder than ever, raised both hands.
