I Became an Evolving Space Monster Chapter 181

Ep. 181

I have never seen myself transformed into a mimic organ.

The mimicry organ is an organ that emits pheromones that disrupt the senses of other organisms from numerous crevices in the outer shell. It has no effect on me, the producer of pheromones.

Therefore, I do not know how others see me with my mimicry organ activated.

Looking at other people’s reactions, it appears that the mimicry system causes subtle discomfort. Could it be said that it is a non-human being imitating a human being?

You might not notice it if it’s your first time, but if you keep using the mimicry organ a few times, the enemies will feel strange, unless they’re stupid. If the other person begins to doubt, the effectiveness of the mimicry system drops significantly.

Just as Red Mist, who was feared for imitating players, is now a thing of the past.

‘But it’s too precious to throw it away like that.’

I put a lot of effort into resolving the unique awkwardness of the mimicry organ. I practiced vocalization and collected information about the subject of change.

As a result of many trials and errors and training, I was able to act quite convincingly even when I was seeing a subject for the first time in my life.

Like now, for example.

“What’s wrong with everyone? “Do you want me to help you?”

A group of temple guards are watching me from a distance. They looked nervous and carefully held their weapons in their hands.

Those holding Gallagon’s claw sword took a step forward, and those holding the Demolisher aimed at my head from behind.

“Why are you doing that?”

“….”

Every time my voice echoes through the passage, the members’ eyes waver. When I just heard the voice, it seemed like it was a colleague, but the cult’s uniquely sensitive senses probably rejected it.

The being in front of them is not ‘Cult Selone’.

“How do I do this?”

As one of the cult members aiming at my head asked, the female cult member next to him who was glaring at me opened her mouth.

“…I will subdue it first and then check.”

Seeing that he was the only one in the group with yak horns on his head, that cult member must be the leader of this group. Like her subordinates, she was confused when she first saw me, but now she seemed to have regained her composure.

The cult members, under orders from their leader, approached me little by little. The three cult members holding demolishers were aiming at my head or the upper part.

‘hmm. ‘That’s interesting.’

The reason for aiming above my head is simple. That they don’t see me as Selone. I guess they thought I was hallucinating.

Creatures that exhibit high levels of hallucination, such as the Red Mist Sea Demon, can even fool the senses. Even if you don’t receive any physical damage, you will be deceived by hallucinations and die.

However, the hallucinations shown by the mimicry organ are not at that level.

They responded this way after realizing that my supposedly hallucinatory abilities did not reach the realm of sensory control. Even while they were afraid of me, they must have been discussing telepathically how to deal with it.

‘It’s not a bad response…’

Unfortunately, it’s not the best response.

The effect of the mimicry organ is to embody the appearance of another intelligent body through pheromones. It’s not about physically transforming my body.

So what happens to parts of my body, such as the erosion tentacles?

The answer is simple.

‘I can’t see it.’

The erosion tentacles extending from my back were already on the heads of the cultists holding the Demolisher. They were completely unaware of what was above their heads.

“….”

The cultists holding Gallagon’s claw swords approach with their eyes fixed on me. They extend their hand towards me, activating the Champion Shield. They are trying to cast ‘Bind’, a psychic power technique that blocks the enemy’s movements, on me.

That time when all the cults here are focused on me.

Tentacles of erosion hit the cults in the rear.

“omg?!”

“Enemy raid…woo!”

The six appendages attached to each tentacle spread out and grabbed the upper body of the cult members. With that, the mouth inside the appendage swallowed their heads.

The mouth of the erosion tentacle is filled with sharp teeth. Even if they are wearing strong reinforced clothing called Yongrinbok (龍鱗服), they cannot overcome the prison of razor blades that is constricting them from all directions.

They couldn’t even scream and their upper bodies were crushed to death.

“This…damn it! “He’s hiding, so get ready!”

As soon as they attacked the members holding the Demolisher, the enemy leader shouted in a loud voice. The cult members approaching me were startled and quickly raised their shields.

Unfortunately, the plan to wipe out the enemy in one blow with the tail was aborted. The enemies were hit by the tail I attacked while sweeping the floor, but since I blocked them with my shield, the damage was not great.

‘It’s pretty good.’

My guess is that that leader seems to be the most skilled among the temple guardians here. Wouldn’t he be at least one of the top 5 among the Temple Guardians?

‘It actually worked out well.’

It would have been dangerous if I had joined a cult player. I rushed forward while maintaining my mimetic organ.

The target is two cult warriors moving to retrieve the Demolisher. As soon as they saw me running, they quickly backed away.

My heavy body trampled over a Demolisher that resembled a harpoon gun. The cult members, who managed to retrieve two Demolishers in the nick of time, rolled to avoid my attack.

It is a bold move that would be commendable if it were an ally rather than an enemy. Even though he probably couldn’t recognize my overall appearance, he guessed my size and avoided it.

The two cult members half-raised their bodies and immediately aimed their Demolishers at me. I could see how much experience they had by seeing the series of movements performed in a flowing manner.

The only problem they have is that the other person is me.

The tooth fairy’s nest near my waist exploded, and black man-eating fleas came out all at once. The place where their mouths are directed is the face of the cult aiming at the Demolisher. The tooth fairies clinked their teeth, which resembled human teeth, and ran towards the cultists.

“Kwaaak!”

“Get away from me…Keuuk!”

While the cult members, whose view was blocked by palm-sized man-eating fleas, paused, I swung my tail at them. It was to eliminate the cult and tooth fairies holding the Demolisher in one blow.

But this time my intention was blocked. Because the enemy leader, the Cult of Yak Horns, ran over and whacked my tail with the champion shield in his hand.

‘hmm?’

Normally she would have bounced off, but surprisingly she succeeded in changing the direction of my tail. The claws at the end of the tail hit a distant place instead of the target.

The walls of the ice passage shook greatly from my attack. The cult leader was completely unfazed and struck my tail with the ax he was holding in his other hand.

‘this.’

“Are you okay?”

“it’s okay!”

“Everyone, prepare your lines!”

I immediately retrieved the tail due to the pain coming from it. Looking at the area where her ax had struck, the hard carapace was damaged.

‘Tsk.’

That black ax in the cult leader’s hand is a weapon I know. This is one of the rewards that a cult can receive when it clears level 10 of the quest.

‘Was it a dragon slayer quest?’

The name of that ax is ‘Condemnation’. According to the setting, it is an ax forged from Black Gallagon’s horn and is one of the parts in the Dragon Slayer set. The player who came here probably gave it to that woman.

‘That’s annoying.’

The effect of condemnation is simple. It increases the wearer’s physical abilities to Gallagon level.

The problem is that the strengthening effect is not something to be trifled with. You can tell just by looking at the fact that I hit my tail with the Champion Shield a little while ago.

‘…There’s one more reason why we shouldn’t waste time.’

You never know when a cult player might change his mind and pop back here. If you see that woman holding a sword, there is a high possibility that the other person is wearing a dragon slayer set.

This means that it is difficult to fight while paying attention to such annoying people.

Before I knew it, I jumped towards the cult members who had formed a battle line.

One of the warriors took a Demolisher and shot it at me. Demolisher’s unique dark blue energy bullet flies towards my head.

I quickly turned my head, but it barely grazed the carapace on the back of my head. As a weapon that decomposes materials, the area that came into contact with the bullet evaporated.

I ignored the attack and rushed forward to crush the cultist holding the Demolisher. When the cult didn’t stop even after I got hit, it got embarrassed and threw itself to the side.

‘Where.’

I flew out my erosion tentacle and hit him.

“Oops!”

The circumference of my tentacles is as thick as most logs. No matter how solid the armor is, it cannot absorb all the shock. The cult member hit by the tentacle vomited blood and rolled around on the floor.

Another tentacle flies out to finish him off, but another cult member intervenes. The cult warrior jumped high and slashed at my tentacle with a white sword made from Gallagon’s claw. A small spark flew from the tentacle along with an eerie sound as the hook scratched the glass window.

My body has synthetic scales on all parts of my body except the carapace, so I boast a high level of defense. The small scales on the surface of the erosion tentacle absorbed the shock, leaving only small scratches.

That doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt. I cut off the tentacle and grabbed the landing cult swordsman with my fighting arms.

“Let go of this!”

Before he tightened the arm holding the knife, I tightened my hand. Then, a sound similar to that of a water balloon being thrown from the top of a high-rise apartment was heard. Warm juice flowed from between four long fingers.

I casually shook off my hands and hit my head towards the cult member who had fallen to the floor earlier.

“Uh oh!”

He tried to crawl away somehow, but it was already too late. His lower body was completely crushed by my head along with the Demolisher.

“Damn it!”

Other cult members were angry at the sight of their comrades dying, but they did not rush to attack. Instead, instead of melee combat, they took out a card called a strategic psychic power attack that only the cult could use.

Two cult members with goat horns aimed at me with both hands wide open. Then my body became as heavy as wet cotton.

‘Is it gravity control?’

It is a psychic power technology that manipulates gravity and is a fairly versatile control technology. Could it be seen as a similar position to ‘bondage’, which No. 26 likes to use?

The floor I was standing on cracked open and my upper body was tilted downward without me realizing it. While the goat horn cult was blocking my movements, one goat horn cult warrior and the leader launched a psychic power attack towards me.

The attack that the warrior fired was a psychic whip called Psychic Whip. The attack fired by the leader was a pain spear that resembled a purple spear.

Pain Spear is a psychic power technique that boasts high penetrating power, and Psychic Whip’s power varies greatly depending on the user’s skill.

Both of these are techniques that were experienced before when fighting the Eugene family’s Shadow Code Black in Space City. The technologies that pushed my life to the brink are coming back towards me.

‘But…’

A purple whip hits my fighting arm and a long spear pierces the carapace of my head. The synthetic scales covering the arms are peeled off and a hole is made in the head.

‘The person I am now is very different from then.’

‘Superpower Reflective Gloves’ is an attribute obtained from previously eating a Swamp King.

The effect is to reflect 30% of the damage received when attacked by a psychic attack.

The whips and spears that struck and stabbed me began to fly towards the cultists as if time had been turned back.

“What?!”

“this!”

The leader quickly raised his champion shield and the goat-horned warrior rolled his body to the side. That choice decided their fate.

“Tsk!”

As a Pain Spear with high penetrating power, it pierced the Champion’s shield, but only slightly injured the leader’s left arm.

But he was not a warrior with goat horns. The reflected psychic whip struck his bent upper body mercilessly.

“Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!”

He was torn from his left shoulder to his chest and screamed in pain. The eyes of the goat-horned cult members wavered as they saw the miserable sight.

Using that opportunity, I cast ‘Watcher of Fear’ on one of the cult members who was casting Gravity Control.

The eye-shaped symbols on the carapace of my head glowed ominously.

Fear Watcher, a downgraded version of Fear of the Deep, is an ability that shows a scary illusion to one opponent. It is very effective when used in situations where enemies are confused, like now.

The blood drained from the face of the cultist who was caught by the Fear Watcher.

“Ugh! Argh! Senior Seo! sorry! sorry!”

“Uh oh! hey! Wake!”

He collapsed on the spot, covering his head with both hands. The weight weighing down my body became lighter.

I raised my head and pointed the tip of my snout towards the remaining goat horn cult. The Goat Horn Cult looked at me and gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do.

I opened my lower jaw wide. A green mass quickly shot out from inside the throat.

The place where the lump full of terrible acidic fungi was headed was the palm of the Goat Horn Cult. Because it was within an area where gravity was manipulated, it couldn’t fly far, but it didn’t matter. All I had to do was touch any part of his body.

And the fungus touched the enemy’s right hand.

“This is moose…kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!”

His hand quickly melted as the fungus began to erode it. The ivory Yongrinbok tried to restore it somehow, but it could not restore the missing hand.

A person who loses his right hand in an instant and still maintains his sanity would be no exception among ordinary creatures.

Finally free from gravity control, I looked at the last remaining leader.

“Cough, cough, cough…”

“Heeeeeek! ” Seniors! Please don’t hit me! I was wrong! “Hey!”

“Uuuuuuu…”

“….”

Her eyes quickly swept across her panicked colleagues. I could feel her right hand holding the punishment gaining strength.

It seemed like the cult leader was trying to bury his bones here.

‘You’re not running away?’

Her heartbeat was still rapid, but had calmed down a bit compared to before. There was no fear even in the eyes glaring at me.

Rather, I felt a sense of relief.

‘Wait, maybe?’

When I saw that, I realized why she was like this.

‘The player sent telepathy!’

It was clear that he had asked for more time because he was going. Perhaps the change in the cult’s tactics a while ago was a sign that the player was coming.

I checked around here with an auxiliary agency. No particularly strong energy flow has yet been detected.

‘…I need to move.’

It’s not a good place to fight this guy. I turned and retreated.

As if my prediction was correct, the cult leader did not chase me. Instead, she picked up the wounded.

‘It’s the end for that leader anyway.’

I still have one more hidden trap. The characteristics themselves were acquired a long time ago but I never had a chance to use them.

If it ‘explodes’, that woman dies.

I paid no attention to the leader and ran down the dark passage.

–

‘…Damn it!’

When she could no longer feel the guy’s presence, Alya collapsed on the floor. There have been more than once times when my life was at stake while fighting strong monsters.

This is natural because the only time the Temple Guardians step out is when a monster that is difficult to subdue using normal methods appears.

But I’ve never been as scared as I was today.

What her lover Jason said was true. It was a monster so scary that it could easily be called a devil.

In her view, the true power of the ‘three-headed devil’ was a brilliant plan. He was a veteran member and fought several moves ahead of her.

It still is. He could have killed her, but he chose to retreat instead. She must have read in advance that her lover was coming here.

‘He is a threat to the empire.’

After picking up the wounded, she approached Villone, who was leaning against the wall.

Alya knelt before her. Villone, who was paralyzed from the neck down, was shedding bloody tears from his red, bloodshot eyes.

‘Jason said he was being manipulated, but…’

Bilone must return alive for the security of Aliya, and indeed the Empire. She is the one who survived the longest by the side of the ‘three-headed devil’. I can’t let her die until I get the information she needs out of her head.

Perhaps because he sensed the love and hate in Alya’s gaze, Bilone opened his mouth.

“I’m sorry for my sin, Aaliyah….”

“I’m saving you because it will help the empire. “There is no need to apologize.”

Alya spoke coldly, but there was something strange about Bilone’s reaction.

“I’m sorry…I’m sorry I’m sorry woo woo woo!”

“huh?”

Villone continued to gag and lowered his head.

“hey? “What happened…”

The moment she got closer to Villone, she raised her head.

The sight of Bilone raising her head was no longer the same as Alya knew.

A Vilone with bright red vines growing from every pore of his face, eyes, nose, mouth and ears. The moment she saw that, telepathy flew into Alya’s mind.

‘Fuck! It’s tetanus vine! Hey Ally! away!’

‘yes?’

Before he could even understand what his lover meant, the thing that was Villone’s head exploded. Pieces of red vine turned into small fragments and splashed towards Alya.

“How did this happen…?”

Alya wiped away the vine pieces and unknown red liquid that had splattered on her upper body. She looked down at the headless corpse with a devastated face.

In the cross section where the neck was cleanly blown away, red vines were wriggling and moving like earthworms.

Before Alya could feel disgust at the sight, she felt a tickle on her left shoulder.

“Why all of a sudden…huh?”

I thought it was because the wounds I received while fighting the monster earlier were recovering, but that wasn’t the case.

The tickling sensation was short-lived, and soon severe pain began to occur not only in my shoulder, but throughout my entire upper body.

“Keuuk?! “Aaaahhh!”

It was a pain as if countless bugs were crawling inside the blood vessels inside the leather. She raised her nails and scratched her upper body as if she was tearing at them.

“Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

When scratching didn’t help due to the protective effect of the Yongrinbok, she took off the reinforced suit and started scratching. The pale, delicate skin quickly became covered in blood.

Is that why? She didn’t notice the thin vine-like things writhing inside the bleeding wound.

‘It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts!’

Only then did she realize why Villone was like that. And what your fate will be.

“Aaaaaaaaaaaah!”

“Ally!”

While she was in a daze, she heard her lover’s voice. Despite the immense pain, she ran towards the direction where she heard her lover’s voice.

Is it because of an instinct caused by love, or is it because of the commands of the beings crawling inside the body?

Whatever it was, there was no way for her to know.

“Fuck….”

The unknown words are heard again. The moment Elijah heard those words, he no longer felt pain.

To be exact, I didn’t feel any sensations other than pain.

“Mopbakiiiiii! This Nimi chewy ah ah ah ah ah ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
