I Became an Evolving Space Monster - Chapter 225
Ep. 225
The effect of ‘mimetic scales’ is to provide a high level of resistance to specific energy.
Since we have secured resistance to psychic power, Odd Grad’s breath will not be a big problem.
‘It may be painful, but I can handle it.’
Its breath is overwhelmingly stronger than that of other Gallagons. It is unlikely that the shock will be completely absorbed when hit.
But it’s not enough to threaten my life. You no longer have to run around trying to avoid its breath.
‘The problem is the ability to detect crisis…’
I have prepared everything to break up his group and withstand his attacks, but there is only one problem.
How do we attack an enemy who can foresee the future?
I kept thinking as I returned to the nest with Aadhay 26.
In Space Survival, there are no skills or characteristics to read the future. Since it is an online VR game with numerous players participating, this is bound to happen.
Only the name is ‘future prediction’ and ‘prophecy’, but in reality, it only upgrades the evasion ability or displays the enemy’s movements on the mini-map.
So, it would be safe to say that Od Grad was the first incomprehensible enemy I encountered in this world.
‘no. Still, there’s a clue.’
I have encountered the ability to predict the future. This is the ‘predator sense’ I have.
Thanks to my precognitive ability to detect crises, I have escaped many crises. If I didn’t have this trait, I wouldn’t have come this far.
In my memory, the future range conveyed by the predator sense is not very long. It shows me in advance what will happen to my body in just a few minutes.
The only exception is when ‘Symbol of Hunting’ was used.
‘In the representational state of hunting, the area where you can see the future has expanded.’
The first time I felt this was when I escaped from the hospital in the T&C Special Trade Center. At that time, the Edgerton Knights were moving to surround the hospital, but I sensed it in advance and was able to safely avoid them.
Perhaps this is because it overshadows the characteristics and type effects of the symbol of hunting.
‘If you think about it, his abilities are unique.’
It is clear that his ability is to foresee a dangerous future. However, the scope is quite vague.
That’s because he predicted in advance that I would attack the White Gallagon I was hunting and came to attack me.
On the other hand, he noticed like a ghost every time I used ‘Colors of the Abyss’. Even though it was something I had never seen before, I tried to avoid it at all costs.
‘That means I can see things other than the immediate crisis…’
In the long run, my hunting down White Gallagons could be harmful to them. My goal was to kill him.
That explains why it didn’t attack me right away when I arrived on this planet. I came to this planet to catch Gallagon and Apex, but I didn’t exactly come to kill Od Grad.
‘…Let’s change our minds for a moment.’
He is already way out of the game. So, we need to broaden our thinking.
‘What if he could see different kinds of futures?’
For example, like me, you may be able to distinguish between a future that can only be seen under certain conditions and a future that can be seen in normal times.
To summarize, there are two futures he can see.
‘The danger that occurred right before our eyes and the dangerous future that will come in the distant future.’
Judging from the information given, it seems reasonable to assume this.
And here’s the important part.
Od Grad laid a trap to kill me, who could ‘harm’ his life. I was caught up in his scheme and had to fight in an imperfect state. As a result, most of the spleen was exposed.
But he didn’t know that he could die fighting me. In fact, he almost died because of the color of the deep sea and God’s whip.
Taking this into consideration, a new hypothesis can be developed.
‘The future he sees has limits.’
First, let’s look at the ability to detect risks that will occur in the long-term future.
This can only be seen at certain cycles or under certain circumstances, and it is highly likely that it cannot be seen often. Therefore, it was not possible to reflect changes in the future in the middle.
‘Secondly, the ability to sense impending danger within a short period of time.’
As it is a similar effect to the predator sense I have, it also has similar limitations. It is helpful in coping with danger when a specific situation occurs, but it is impossible to avoid the ‘dangerous situation itself’.
Therefore, to kill him, you have to aim for the gap between the two types of futures.
‘If you move too hastily, he’ll catch you.’
Ham Ort’s escape, Aadhai’s growth, information about the ring he has, and even the imitation scales. I have a lot of cards, but if I use them carelessly, he will detect them in advance.
‘If you do it wrong, he might run away.’
Od Grad is the only Black Gallagon on this planet. If you miss this, you will also miss one of the unique characteristics.
‘We need to create a future where he is not at a disadvantage and induce him to do so.’
While we were wondering how to kill it, we arrived at the nest.
I saw Mother Sky sitting at the entrance to the nest and a wounded White Gallagon lying down next to her.
｢Ham Ort?｣
Adhai let out a wave of thought. Ham Ort, sensing her thought wave, raised his head and looked at her.
When the mother saw her daughter, her purple eyes were filled with embarrassment.
｢Meteor’s Daughter｣｢Savior｣｢Failed?｣｢Why?｣｢Why?｣ ｢
Me｣｢Savior｣｢Rejected｣
Upon hearing Adhaj’s answer, Ort jumped up from his seat. Sky’s mother, who was next to him, also stood up and followed him.
“be careful. The wound hasn’t healed yet.”
“Why?” “You” “Choice” “It’s wrong!” “Od Grad” “I can’t stop it!”
Ham Ort is shocked by the fact that his daughter refused to turn into Red Gallagon. It seemed like he had received it. He used to keep his cool even when fighting, but now he was showing his anger without any filtering.
Adhai, who responded to Ham Oort’s passionate thought wave, did not lose and poured out his thought wave.
｢I｣｢New kin｣｢Chosen｣｢Past kin｣｢It’s important｣｢This side｣｢More｣｢It’s important!｣ ｢Od
Grad｣｢Young kin｣｢Adult kin｣｢All｣｢Kill!｣
｢ ‘Worry’, ‘Unnecessary’, ‘Big adult’, ‘Little adult’, ‘Ugly friend’, ‘Sick child’, ‘Brother’, ‘Everyone’, ‘Strength’, ‘We’ll fight together’, ‘Od Grad’, ‘Strength’, ‘Powerful’, ‘Black fellow’
. ｣｢Victory｣｢Impossible｣｢Od Grad｣｢Black kin｣｢Kill｣ ｢
Big Adult｣｢Not weak｣｢Ham Ort｣｢Do not insult!｣
｢Ham Ort! Calm down!”
Ham Ort was ready to pounce on Adhaj at any moment. If his wings and body were fine, he would have definitely done so if Heavenly Mother hadn’t stopped him.
｢Disappointed｣｢Disappointed｣｢Disappointed!｣｢Daughter of the Meteor｣｢Blessing｣｢Abandoned!｣｢The Expectations of My People｣｢Abandoned!｣ ｢Disappointed?｣｢Me｣｢More｣｢Disappointed｣｢Ham Ort
｣ “You abandoned me because I was weak!” “
Denial!” “Weak fellow countrymen.” “I never abandoned you!” “
Lies!” “Ham Ort,” “a liar,” “you abandoned me,” and “the savior.” ｢Kingdom｣｢Salvation｣｢Force｣｢Unsightly!｣
｢!｣
As their emotions become more intense, the thought wave gradually turns into a more primitive form. The thought waves mixed with Ham Ort’s disappointment and anger and Adhaj’s sorrow and resentment made my monster’s tentacles tingle.
Number 26, which is sensitive to detecting wavelengths, also changed its body color to dark pink, possibly due to the effect.
“I’ll go out and come back.”
In the end, of the two, it was Aadhai who retreated first. The guy kicked the ground hard with his back foot and flew into the forest.
“Is there a problem?”
PS-111, who was taking care of a Blue Gallagon with symbiotic spores inside the nest, walked out.
“The little baby fought with his mother.”
“As a result of analyzing the surrounding environmental factors, there are no traces of a fight between the ‘little baby’ and ‘Ham Oort.’”
“Friend, what you said is so difficult that I don’t know what it means.”
While PS-111 was having an inappropriate conversation with No. 26, Ham Ort was just staring blankly in the direction where his daughter had disappeared. He must have been in great shock, so unrestrained emotions flowed out of his body.
“This forest is safe, but you never know. No. 26 and PS-111, please bring Adhai together.”
“Yes. I will protect the little baby. let’s go. “Friend.”
“I understand.”
No. 26 shrunk down to a small size and climbed on top of PS-111. A Sea Demon and a Mutant Screamer disappeared into the forest.
After seeing them follow, Ort lowered his head as if he had come to his senses. The emotions that had been spreading in the form of disorderly thoughts were gradually contained.
Barely calming down, Ham Ort raised his head and looked at me.
｢You｣｢Black people?｣
[Z(Yes)]
｢Yuseong’s daughter｣｢You｣｢talked about it｣“A lot”｣｢You｣｢Yuseong’s daughter｣｢Taught you｣Let’s nod because it was
true. Ham Ort bent his front legs in front of me and lowered his head slightly.
｢Ham Ort｣｢Thank you｣｢Yuseong’s daughter｣｢For saving me｣｢For taking care of me｣
The guy who briefly expressed his gratitude immediately straightened up. I felt complex emotions from the amethyst eyes looking at me.
｢But｣｢Daughter of Meteor｣｢Because of you｣｢Savior｣｢I gave up｣｢Od Grad｣｢Kind people｣｢All｣｢Kill｣ [
Zuz zuzu zuzuzuzu zuzuzuzu (that won’t happen)]
That bastard I will stop something like that before it happens.
Ham Ort shook his head and denied what I said.

｢Black kin｣｢Strong｣｢But｣｢Od Grad｣｢Block｣｢More.｣ He
has fought with me before, so he knows how strong I am. He probably wants to point out the numerical superiority of the enemy forces.
Of course, what he said was not wrong. If I had fought Odd Grad when I faced him, I would have lost.
‘not now but.’
But Ham Ort, unaware of this, seemed to want to persuade me to avoid the fight. The guy fired a wave of thought out of desperation.
｢Od Grad｣｢Strong｣｢Daughter of the Meteor｣｢You｣｢Precious｣｢I think｣｢Then｣｣｢Survival｣｢More｣｢Important

｢Black kin｣｢Give up｣｢Don’t you?｣
[Zuzuzuzuzuzuzuzuzu (Yes, Odgrad will die by my hands)]
｢…｣
Ham Ort is more Instead of sending any further thought waves, he glared into my eyes.
I can feel his uneasy feelings. But my will remains the same. I plan to kill the black dragon who fucked me, no matter what it takes.
｢I understand｣｢Ham Ort｣｢Black kin｣｢I believe｣
[zuzu zuzu zuzuzu zuzu zuzuzu zuzu zuzuzuzu (Okay. Tell me about the situation when you fought that guy)]
｢Anything you want to know｣｢Ask me｣
The guy stared at me for a long time and eventually gave up on persuading me. I slowly brought out the questions I wanted to ask him.
–
A huge canyon located beyond the frozen plain.
As you approach this deep canyon, which can be counted in hundreds of meters (or even kilometers), you will hear a strange sound. The sound, similar to an animal screaming in pain, is the sound of wind passing through a huge ice canyon.
Although it is a natural phenomenon, other nearby creatures are reluctant to approach the canyon due to the scary sound. The only being who freely enters this canyon is the Beast King who rules this area.
However, the king of beasts has not been seen recently. It was unclear whether he was hiding or had left the canyon.
Instead, beings of heterogeneous shapes would occasionally travel in and out of the canyon. They didn’t know that this was the king’s territory, so they slaughtered all the creatures around them. As long as it moves, it kills any creature or plant. As a result, the canyon, which originally had few living creatures, became a completely dead land.
Even today, after finishing the slaughter, the bizarre beings stepped into the canyon, leading the pieces of meat.
The inside of the canyon is so deep that it should be filled with only darkness. As they came down, the red lights hidden in the darkness blinked one by one.
After descending for a while, they finally reached what could be called the bottom. They threw down the pieces of meat they had brought while hanging in the gorge.
Then, a huge red light, incomparable to before, opened its eyes and swallowed the piece of meat in an instant.
“The mission to scout the surrounding area and secure energy sources has been completed.”
“The risk source inside the super volcano is currently unknown. “The investigation continues.”
“Test traces of humanoid lifeforms active on this planet have been discovered. Their identity is presumed to be humans belonging to ‘Megacorp’. Confirmed to have moved to investigate a super large volcano.”
“Anomalous airflow occurred on the planet two days ago. “As a result of comparative analysis with accumulated weather data, it was determined that the abnormal weather was caused by a battle between the indigenous creatures of this planet.”
“Discovered while monitoring a nest of native creatures…”
They, or rather the mutant screamers, continued their report in a mechanical tone. Normally, they would have exchanged the information they had gathered after regular reporting, but today was different.
The red light that swallowed the piece of meat flashed again.
“Pira Eleven. “Order.”
Everyone fell silent as the red light muttered softly.
“A being who created an abnormal weather event. As a result of comparison with the Starlink database, it is 82% similar to Special Target A. “
Red. No, an android whose body is being remodeled after being damaged by heavy damage.
Pyrrha Eleven, one of the top members of the Star Union Mechanical Committee, said.
“Pira Eleven. The most important order has been announced. 189 S models and 20 PS models remaining in the canyon should establish special objective A.
“Confirm order.”
“Order…”
At Pyrrha Eleven’s words, countless red lights that had been sleeping opened their eyes.
A chilling sound mingled in the canyon filled with the sound of the wind.
