I Became an Evolving Space Monster - Chapter 210
Ep. 210
「Hidden compatriot」「brought」
[zuzuzu zuzu zuzuzuzu zuzu (come here when everything is done)]
「Understanding」
Nell Germa greeted me politely and flew up.
Originally, he was destined to be eaten and killed by Adhai right here, but the plan changed. Because I chose to save him instead of sacrificing him.
Since the plan had changed, he also took the next action. It is the gathering of scattered compatriots.
It is said that most of the surviving gallagons are hatchlings, and only a few green gallagons remain to protect them. He must have decided that the safest place on this planet is near me, so he said he was bringing his people here.
‘I have no intention of eating it right now either.’
My original plan was to obtain the wings and then rescue A’Dhai, not engage in all-out war against the hordes of black dragons.
Since coming to this planet, I have fought Gallagon twice in total. He fought Ham Ort alone and killed 10 Green Gallagons twice. Both times, the circumstances worked out well and I won easily, but that’s because I was lucky.
What if Ham Oort had a subordinate? Or what if there were 10 Green Gallagons and three or four White Gallagons to lead them? It must have been no easy fight.
‘Gallagons are strong individually, but they are stronger when they gather together.’
Just as lions in Africa form a pack to hunt dangerous herbivores, gallagons also become very dangerous if they form a proper pack. Would you say that he is a high-ranking companion of the Glacier Fiend who does not fight alone but uses minions? A group of gallagons in a coordinated assortment is like a living fighter squadron.
‘So you have to hit quickly before they get ready on the other side.’
When you learn that the group of Green Gallagons sent to chase down the remnants of Ham Ort have been wiped out, you will feel something strange. The black dragon Od Grad is older than any Gallagon on this planet. He would know well how to respond when a strong enemy appears.
In other words, you need to shake them up before they get into a defensive posture.
‘The good news is that Nel Germa had a lot of useful information.’
Like Ham Ort, he once belonged to the group of the Black Dragon Od Grad. So I knew very well how many White Gallagons were in the group.
‘The total number of white gallagons is 19.’
There were originally 24 of them, but it is said that 4 of them followed Ham Oort and left the group, bringing the number to 19. Of these, 12 are young individuals that have just shed their skin. Gender is half male and half female.
On the other hand, the seven cases are said to be mature individuals that spent a long time after molting. Although not as old as Black Gallagon, he appears to be quite old.
In the game, White Gallagon had the same skills as each other, but this is reality. There is some variation depending on how long you have lived and how much combat experience you have.
‘If you look at Ham Oort, there’s definitely a difference.’
And it is said that those seven are Od Grad’s favorite pets and are under the care of the black dragon. Even Nell Germa emphasized that they were particularly dangerous. Even if you can’t do it, it would be better to assume that you are at the Ham Ort level.
‘Let’s make a plan to clean up the weak entities first.’
It is said that any white gallagon is the material needed to grow Aadhai. At least that’s what the Gallagons who knew his secret said.
‘Take the first one as food, and the rest…’
It would be better to catch and eat them to gain as many characteristics as possible, and then attract them as allies. If it were any other time, we would have eaten them all, but now we need to increase our strength.
‘I’ve already heard about the time when they go hunting.’
It is said that seven of them always stay in the nest and assist Od Grad. Twelve birds leave the nest once every three to four days to hunt for food.
‘Nell Germa said there wasn’t much time left until we went hunting again.’
They still don’t know that the Green Gallagon Tracking Party is dead. Therefore, there is a high possibility that they will be sent out hunting before they learn of the death of the tracking party. However, Gallagon’s sense of time is slightly different from that of humans, so we cannot just believe that.
‘Surveillance and preparation. ‘I need both.’
You must keep an eye on the nest’s movements and be prepared to fight them before they come out.
That is what I, or we, must do from now on.
I made a rough plan based on the information I heard from Nell Germa and called the kids.
“It’s definitely a good plan. If I change just one thing.」
[Zuzzuzu zuzuzu (What part is it?)]
「I will be better than PS-111 as the nest watchdog. “I have better perspective and more experience.”
“I cannot agree with that. “My detection system has a 360-degree range…”
The reason I decided to entrust PS-111 with nest surveillance is because of two advantages it has.
The ability to detect psychic power and agility.
Among us, number 26 is the best expert in psychic power, but has the disadvantage of being slow on the ground. If you happen to get caught by the Gallagons, it will be difficult to escape. On the other hand, PS-111’s detection ability is lower than that of No. 26, but its movements are very agile.
‘no. She has a point.’
The Heavenly Mother is poor at detecting psychic power, but has excellent vision. PS-111 seems to disagree, but in my opinion, the difference between the two is not that big.
Moreover, she is from the same ranker as me. Of course, I have experience hunting Gallagon.
‘The catch here is that it’s different from games.’
Unlike PS-111, who is a machine and tends to be rigid, she has flexible judgment. Even if something goes wrong, she will easily get out of the crisis.
[Zuzzu zuzuzu zuzuzu zuzuzu zuzuzu (That’s right. I’ll leave that part to Heavenly Mother)]
「Thank you.」
[Zuz zuzuzu zuzuzu zuzu zuzuzu (Instead, please move PS-111 with No. 26. )]
“I understand.”
「Trust me, my friend!」
No. 26 and PS-111 will take on the role of protecting the group that Nell Germa will bring. Nel Germa didn’t say anything, but it’s hard to think that the old black dragon would have sent just one tracking party.
‘There will definitely be more Green Gallagon tracking parties.’
If you attach No. 26 and PS-111 to Nell Germa, you will be able to handle them well even if you encounter a tracking team.
[Zuuuu zzu zzu zzuzu (Aadhai. You will go with me)]
Lastly, Aadhai is going to move with me.
There are two reasons.
To give him combat training and to introduce him to a new Apex.
It is true that white gallagons are an important key to growth, but it is unknown what effect other foods have. I think it’s unlikely, but it might be a big help to his growth.
‘Whatever happens, it’s not a loss.’
Apex contains a lot of energy, so it is good food for Aadhai that has just shed its skin.
That’s not all.
You have to take him on an Apex hunt to train his abilities. To prepare for the upcoming battle, you must be fully aware of your abilities. There is nothing better than fighting a strong enemy to help him adapt.
[Zuzuzu Zuzu Zuzu Zuzuzu Zuzuzu (If Nell Germa comes, take her to the nest)]
「Are you okay?」
[Zuzuzzu Zuzuzu Zuzuzu Zuzuzu Zuzuzu Zuzuzu Zuzuzuzuzu (If you leave the Blue Gallagon outside, it will freeze. Die. You can only survive if you leave it on the cruiser)]
I know what Heavenly Mother is concerned about, but I can’t help it. Now that the dragon’s nest has been lost, you have to send them to a heated cruiser to save them.
Just then, Nell Germa returned.
「Survival」「People」「All?」
「All」
「Eggs?」「Where?」
「Oud Grad」「Take」
There are three Green Gallagons brought by Nell Germa. There were 5 Blue Gallagons. It is said that all White Gallagons were killed by Ohd Grad himself.
‘Not much.’
There are 19 White Gallagons over there alone, but there are a total of 9 here. Even including Aadhai, there are only 10 of them. They are incomparably inferior.
‘Tsk. ‘I expected this much.’
It’s unfortunate, but it was expected.
However, Aadhai was trembling as if that was not the case. When he was captured by Ham Oort, he stayed in the hatchling’s nest. You probably know better than anyone how many Blue Gallagons have died.
If it were any other time, I would have comforted him, but not like this.
‘Anger helps in fighting.’
Because it helps you overcome the limits you have drawn without even realizing it.
Of course, if you’re consumed by anger, you won’t be able to make good decisions, but in this case, it doesn’t matter. Because I will control his emotions.
[Zuzuz, zuzuzu, zuzuzu, zuzuzu (Ask them where to go)]
“I’ll explain as we go. “Follow me.”
“Agree.” “Everyone.” “Move.”
Everyone started moving as they said in advance. When everyone left, only Adhai and I were left.
「Old adult」「I」「Shock」「Young compatriot」「Death」「I don’t want」
[Zuzu (Yes)]
「Young compatriot」「Guilt」「Nothing」「Od Grad」「Bad」
In fact, things happened to me like this too. Before that, I was planning on eating up all the Gallagons, but I didn’t say anything about it.
Instead, what I said was a different story.
[Zuzuzuzu (I need to take revenge)]
「Agree」「Revenge」「Need」
[Zuzu zuzu zuzuzuzuzu zuzuzu zuzuzu zuzuzuzu zuzuzu (Odd Grad, who abandoned you, killed the mother and the young ones as well)] 「
Agree 」
When it came into contact with the waves created by the monster’s tentacles, flames erupted from its eyes. This is not a metaphor; a purple flame really rose above the amethyst eyes. The latent psychic power was affected and flowed out of the body.
[Zuzuzuzu Zuzuzuzu Zuzuzu Zuzuzu Zuzuzu (Odd Grad must be repaid with death. Even his group)]
「Agree!」「Odd Grad」「Death」「Necessary!」「Necessary!」
He shook his head violently. Aadhai nods.
With this, I was able to take Gallagon’s genetic essence without damaging my relationship with him. It’s a bit unfortunate that I couldn’t eat the Blue Gallagons.
‘Everyone leaves and Od Grad must die.’
It’s not just because it’s going to attack me or because I need its genetic essence.
He is the one who abandoned Aadhai. A person who caused irreparable harm to the person I cared about.
‘When everything is ready….’
Od Grad dies by my hands.
–
The ice plain where the king of snakes lives.
Ten green-scaled beings were flying over the plain where the ground had become unstable due to a mysterious earthquake not long ago.
Their identity is a tracking party sent by Odd Grad. A search was being conducted to find the remnants serving the Pure White Queen Ham Ort.
After carefully looking around the ice plain, the Gallagon group decided that there were no enemies here. This next place to go was a long way away from their nest. It was a frozen canyon beyond the plain. It was the territory of the King of Beasts, but they didn’t care.
The King of Beasts is invincible on the ground, but cannot fly. Even if you encounter him, you can escape at any time.
In this way, the Gallagon group invaded the realm of the King of Beasts without anyone stopping them.
Ten winged dragons crossed the deep canyon created by nature without any worries. When we reached the middle of the canyon, Gallagon, who was in the lead, discovered something.
There was something sparkling in a place so deep that light didn’t enter properly.
「Stop」
「Traitor」「Found?」
「Confirmation」「Attempt」
The moment when the leading Gallagon was about to approach the light.
Dozens of red lights appeared on the cliff where the light was located.
「Enemy」「Wet…」
In the unusual atmosphere, Gallagon quickly tried to release a thought wave. But his compatriots could not hear his thoughts.
Some unknown wave was blocking them.
While I was panicking because the thought wave could not reach me, red lights jumped off the cliff. Dozens of unidentified beings with multiple legs climbed on top of his body.
He tried his best to keep them away, but it was no use. They mercilessly bit off his wings with their sharp claws and teeth.
Within a few seconds, his entire body was covered in blood and he fell down to the bottom.
He hoped that his fellow countrymen would escape safely while he was suffering, but reality betrayed his expectations.
Because his nine companions were falling into the abyss just like him.
On top of the cliff, other red lights were looking down at them emotionlessly.
“Suppression of 10 hostile creatures completed. “Injected as supply energy.”
“Depending on the amount of energy, ‘Pira Eleven’ is expected to recover up to 75%. It is expected that activities can be resumed.”
“Introducing the recovery team and supply team…”
Red lights constantly made incomprehensible sounds even while falling together with him.
What that sound meant, Green Gallagon never knew.
