I Became an Evolving Space Monster Chapter 124

Ep. 124

｢Predator’s Irregular Polyhedron: Devours a piece of equipment and specializes its unique abilities. This can only be done once per piece of equipment, and when you feast on another piece of equipment, the characteristic effects of the previous piece of equipment are lost. ‘

What about this?’

A new trait acquired after absorbing Muriel’s essence.

It was a type that had never been seen before and never existed.

‘Absorbing equipment abilities.’

The superpowers I gained during my days as a fluid were also characteristics I had never obtained in a game, but this was on a completely different level.

‘It’s a characteristic that completely escapes Aimorph’s common sense.’

Amorph Outspacer Metallic Gremlin has excellent physical abilities and powerful utility abilities, but has the handicap of not being able to wear equipment.

Even if it was possible to use the equipment’s abilities after some kind of preparation, it was limited to general equipment or consumables, and it was impossible to utilize the unique equipment.

However, if you have this characteristic, even though it is only one, you can specialize and use even the best equipment.

‘There’s no precedent for something like this.’

In the game, there was no case in which killing a player resulted in gaining any special new characteristics.

In the case of a genetically modified human being, all that was required was to obtain the essence of the biological genes contained in the body, and in the case of a cult, to obtain characteristics related to psychic power.

I’ve eaten up a lot of players in the meantime, but this is the first time I’ve ever gained characteristics that are this different from the original.

I checked the semi-transparent text box again.

｢-Nest-related fusion characteristics: Symbiote Spores

Strong Enemy Mark*: Marauder’s Irregular Polyhedron (X)｣

A new category and star called ‘Formidable Enemy Mark’ has been created under the list of possessed characteristics.

‘Proof of a strong enemy?’

As I looked at the star, a new message came to mind.

｢’Together of a Strong Enemy’ is a badge obtained after feasting on powerful prey. If there are characteristics that correspond to the unique perks of the prey, they will be reorganized into the badge characteristics of a strong enemy. “Characteristics that are classified as a sign of a strong enemy cannot be used as materials for the fusion transcendence system.”

Just looking at the explanation, the “predator’s irregular polyhedron,” which is a sign of a strong enemy, is a new classification that is different from general characteristics such as physical superpower-related characteristics. It looks like

‘The powerful prey spoken of here probably refers to the player.’

Muriel’s special ability is the ability to obtain symbols from other races and transform them into modules. When you equip the symbolized module, the species changes.

‘Thanks to you, I was able to use the power of a cult while still being a cyborg.’

The Marauder’s Amorphous Polyhedron is a trait that eats equipment and characterizes its unique abilities.

There was an aspect that was similar to Muriel’s privilege of modularizing and equipping the characteristics of other races.

Perhaps, if you hunt various types of ‘mighty prey’, you will be able to obtain a completely different type of badge characteristic.

‘It’s a struggle with the players.’

When interrogating Muriel, I asked her if there were other players besides us.

According to her, there are two players who agree with her.

There were 7 players she knew, including Heavenly Mother and me.

‘They said there were more in the past….’

It is said that it is currently unknown how many more remain. This is because a war broke out between players a long time ago and many people died.

‘The fact that you get special rewards for killing other players must have spread then.’

When Muriel came to this world, the war had already ended and the remaining players had formed factions.

There are those who try to adapt and live in this world, while there are those who prey on other players to gain special benefits, and those who think this is a game and rule like tyrants, etc.

‘It’s because I came to this world at a different time.’

Muriel came to this world three years ago and Heavenly Mother has been at least ten years. Among the players Muriel knew, there was one who lived for over a hundred years.

‘Since each person must have survived in a different way, it is not impossible to understand the division of factions.’

However, what is questionable is that no one has seen the ending despite it being so long.

‘I think the war that took place in the past was probably fought between players trying to see the ending.’

If Amorph’s ending is ascension, other races also have their own unique endings in a similar category.

And in order to see that ending, you must fight and win against players of a similar race to your own level.

‘To be precise, it means killing the leaders of the tribe.’

For example, Megacorp and Star Union each include a condition that requires capturing each other’s leadership during the ending trigger. In order to see the ending, the player who has become Megacorp CEO must fight and eliminate the Great Leader of Star Union.

In most games, the position of leader of each race, whether CEO or Grand Leader, is usually held by players, so ultimately, the goal is to induce a struggle between players.

Therefore, during past wars, someone must have achieved this condition.

However, even listening to Muriel’s words, it seemed like no one who had seen the ending had come out yet.

‘Is there something else I don’t know about?’

Since this is reality, we cannot rule out the possibility that players did not reach a high enough level to unlock the ending trigger.

Unlike games, here, once you die, it’s over. Even if you are a player with a strong heart, you will have no choice but to move while protecting your body.

‘I’ll have to ask Heavenly Mother about this.’

Since she survived much longer than Muriel, she might know something.

‘In any case, there is a high possibility that there will be hostile relations with other players in the future.’

Muriel sent a rescue signal to her colleagues before she was captured by me. So at least it was confirmed that her colleagues were hostile to me.

And players who are hostile to Muriel’s colleagues will also find out about my actions through some means.

Depending on what faction they are, they will either be against me or try to use me.

｢*PS: You are death and the destroyer of the universe. But be careful. “The whole universe will pay attention to you.”

This is exactly what the P.S.

That the whole universe will be watching me.

I don’t know right now how players will approach me.

‘Either way, I have to become stronger.’

Only then can it be advantageous for survival and avoid being taken advantage of by someone.

From transcendental systems to player hunting.

It is unclear what the intention of the person who sent me here is doing this, but finding out the cause and reason is ultimately only possible if I survive.

Lastly, I checked to see if there were any new messages, but there was no additional explanation other than the asterisk explanation.

Trying to keep thinking in a situation where there is insufficient information is just a waste of time.

It would be much more productive now to think about how to use your newly acquired abilities.

‘The Marauder’s Irregular Polyhedron can be created with any equipment ability or characteristic.’

Additionally, each piece of equipment cannot be specialized more than once.

With entry-level equipment, you can use the equipment’s abilities several times, but this is not the case with Yuil-level equipment.

‘If it’s Muriel’s equipment…’

I picked up the priest’s golden spear and coordinator that had fallen on the floor.

In addition to this, Thunder God and Blood River are at the camp.

When we say that the unique abilities of the equipment are specialized, we do not know what form they take. When I look at the abilities of the equipment, they are all helpful to me.

The golden spear will make my power infinitely stronger, and the tuner can secure absolute evasion ability up to 5 times.

Raijin would be able to make up for my lack of long-distance attack and anti-air ability, and Blood River would greatly strengthen my ability to dominate the battlefield.

‘Shall we experiment with other equipment first?’

I’ll have to use any equipment in the campsite to see how it applies. I took my pike and my tuner and tried to leave the place.

A sudden thought occurred to me and I stopped moving.

‘….’

I picked up stones nearby and stacked them in the place where I was standing a moment ago.

I made a small rock mountain in the vacant lot and left.

–

The cult’s sacred star ‘Guide’.

It is the spiritual home of cults spread throughout the galaxy.

In fact, India is not a good place to live, to say the least, because the entire planet was turned into a desert a very long time ago.

If it weren’t for the cult’s outstanding psychic power technology, it would have been abandoned long ago.

There were old cities on the red sand spread across the planet.

Among those cities, there is a city called ‘Prophet’s Stone’.

The Prophet’s Stone was the oldest city, with even road decorations dating back hundreds of thousands of years.

Past the buildings decorated with purple ornaments on the ivory exterior walls, there was a huge tower standing in the center of the city.

The top floor of the tower where the most noble members of the cult reside.

A male cult member with deer antlers passed through a long hallway and opened the door to a prayer room. Inside the prayer room, diamond-shaped tombstones with numerous wires connected to them were lying on the floor.

“….”

The male cult member snapped his fingers without saying a word.

Then, two of the diamond tombstones lit up and floated in the air.

“It’s been a while, everyone!”

A girl’s voice came from one of the tombstones. The voice was bright and lively, resembling that of an animation character, and did not match the gloomy atmosphere of the prayer room.

“It’s busy here, so talk quickly. “Jason.”

On the other hand, the voice coming from this side reminded me of a solemn middle-aged man.

Jason didn’t answer but waited for the other tombstone to activate. A few more seconds passed, but there was no moving monument.

When there were only two active tombstones, the male cultist named Jason sighed.

“…You said it was urgent, but there were only two people coming in?”

“It’s because my brother talks like an idiot. “If I had said it properly, more people would have come in.”

“You bastard… wait a minute? You came too, but why didn’t you come in because you were a second-year middle school student? “That person is the most important.”

“Young Master, you are really busy these days because of the civil war. “I haven’t contacted you in a long time either.”

“Fuck. Maybe I should have done something like Megacorp in the end. “I can only fuck a married woman for a day or two, it’s so boring here.”

As Jason was only talking to the tombstone that had a girl’s voice, a middle-aged man’s voice intervened.

“I do not have time. So stop chit chatting and explain in detail. “Isn’t a new player here?”

“That’s right. Please tell me in detail. Muriel Why did she suddenly lose her mind? “There’s no one out there looking for players other than us.”

“A player we don’t know killed her. ‘Amorph’ player.”

As soon as the word ‘Aimorph’ came out of Jason’s mouth, the chattering tombstones became quiet.

｢…Jason, those jokes aren’t funny.｣

｢Tsk There’s not much time left until the speech, but I wasted time.｣

“Shit, I wish I were lying too.”

“Really? “Are you really Amorph?”

“That’s nonsense. The Aimorphs are extinct.”

“That was before we lost contact with Muriel. “He said Wolff Player and Eimoff Player are targeting him.”

Jason transmitted the recorded communication log to the people beyond the monument.

After a while, their anger burst out from the tombstone after checking the communication records.

“I’m going crazy, really! Why did the

cubs that went extinct 10 years ago come out now?

”

“Beomho, that bastard will never give up, so I told you to kill him in advance!”

“You can kill him, right? “You’ve never beaten Beomho in a game, right?”

｢оба заткнись (Both of you shut up)! It’s already too late, so there’s no use blaming. If the person who killed Muriel is Eimoff, then the answer is certain.”

“Yes. Because there is only one Amorph up to rank 40. “He would be the only Aimorph capable of catching Muriel in the first place.”

As Jason spoke, a light came on from the tombstone where the girl’s voice came from.

“Now wait a minute! What is that? No. 5. He doesn’t have any friends. There’s no way a kid like that would be with Seo-ah…”

“I agree. The possibility that Morffucker has a friend converges to 0. “

Muriel was commissioned by me to capture Seo-ah Choi. “Isn’t it possible that Moffak broke in while the two were fighting?”

“indeed. That’s morph-fucking behavior. It’s an understandable explanation.”

“Haaaa… Is this true?” I thought I was lucky because equipment development has been going well these days.”

Only then did those on the other side of the monument understand why Jason had called them.

“Are you planning on subjugating him?”

“Of course. “If you leave that bastard alone, we’ll all die.”

“You might know, but I’m not? “Because I am the head of the family, I don’t count towards the evolution conditions for Aimorph.”

“Didn’t Muriel really talk about you before she died? “If I were Amorph, you would definitely try to catch me, right?”

｢Ugh Muriel, you really are a helpless bitch….｣

｢Quiet! “So what are we going to do?”

“How about we all go and catch it in person? Honestly, sending my men isn’t trustworthy, and besides…”

Jason thought.

Those in this position are truly those who can control the universe in real time.

It was no exaggeration to say that it was an out-of-this-world existence. Would it really be difficult for such people to gather together and catch one Amorph?

However, the thoughts of the people beyond the tombstone were very different from Jason’s.

“Oppa, are you crazy? Are we all going to have a line portrait together? “If we had gone alone except you, everyone would have been destroyed?”

“I am also against it.” “If I die, Star Union will collapse.”

“Hey, hey! They both talk strangely? It’s not like I’m the only one who wants to survive, our strength is enough…”

“Stop complaining. I think it’s because you don’t know much, but you know that Moffak used to break the heads of rankers while still in his semi-adult form.” “I

heard that there are a lot of people in the cult who couldn’t see the ending because of him. Jason, you wouldn’t know.”

“That’s right. I have no intention of repaying the Western Wall for essence, do I? “If you want to get away, go and get it alone.”

“I agree. If you want to subdue Jeong, go alone. If you want to leave a will, write it down now. If you go there, you won’t be able to leave a will.” “

….”

Jason was interrupted mid-sentence by the tombstones coming in.

Jason couldn’t say anything more due to their reactions, which seemed like people suffering from trauma.
