I Became an Evolving Space Monster Chapter 190

Ep. 190

–

“Huh?!”

A blonde man opened his eyes in a bed.

With his impressively strong muscles, he caressed his cold sweat-soaked neck.

“Whew, I thought I was going to die… Wait, where are you?”

The man was relieved that his throat was fine, but for a moment he was embarrassed by the fact that he was in an unfamiliar space.

The place he was in was a certain room.

On the wall were character posters of famous heavy metal groups that I received as a free gift from Poster Japan Blu-ray.

An expensive computer and black headgear were placed on the desk beneath the poster.

When he saw the black futuristic-designed headgear, he realized where this was.

“I’m back home!”

Jason Turningham, a blond white man, cheered.

This was his hometown. It was finally back to reality.

‘How long has it been like this? 10 years? no. ‘Has it been 15 years?’

Jason looked down at his hands. Instead of the cult’s characteristic pure white hands, dark-toned palms and bushy wrist hair caught my eye.

It must have been his body, but he felt awkward. In a way, it may be natural since you have spent more than half of your life playing games.

He removed the nostalgic-smelling blanket and got out of bed. He used to be close to 2m tall, but now he is only around 180cm.

“Jason! “How long are you going to sleep?”

I thought I had turned into a dwarf overnight, but I heard a voice outside.

‘mom!’

He enjoyed a more blessed life than anyone else in the world of space survival, but there was just one thing he regretted.

It was a memory of my parents.

Jason quickly took off his clothes and went out. The smell of his mother’s baked meatloaf filled the air in front of his door on the second floor.

He almost fell and went down the stairs. He shouted loudly from the living room connected to the kitchen.

“mom!”

His mother, who was putting food on the table, is startled and scolds him.

How old are you and why do you make a fuss in the morning? He was grumbling and telling me to eat quickly.

That was the way Jason remembered his mother.

It definitely had to be that way.

The sight that caught his eye was completely different from what he expected.

The clean kitchen was stained red like undercooked meatloaf. The liquid that dyed the wallpaper had a strong iron-fishy smell.

“uh?”

Jason looked blankly at the blood-soaked kitchen.

A being that shouldn’t be there was holding his ‘things that were his mother’.

“Ah ah….”

Black-purple outer shell and unique elongated occiput carapace. A monster with six arms, two legs, and a tail as long as its body.

‘Amorph’ appears in Space Survival.

He was in the kitchen chewing out Jason’s mother.

“Aaaaaaaaaah!”

Jason screamed and squeezed his eyes shut.

I hope this was all just a dream.

and.

Like a lie, he opened his eyes on the bed.

“A dream?”

Metal group poster Japanese anime character poster. And computers. It was the same scene I saw when I woke up a little while ago.

He was in his room, not in the game world.

“Jason! “How long are you going to sleep?”

‘mom!’

Without even having time to rejoice in the fact that he was back, Jason got up and left the room.

He flew halfway down the stairs and quickly looked into the kitchen.

“Jason I told you not to run at home.”

Jason gasped when he heard the voice of his mother, whom he had always missed. I couldn’t breathe at all.

glad? no.

His mother was in no condition to speak out. That’s because you can’t talk about a corpse with only its head left.

“….”

“Jason, come and eat.”

Eimov, holding his mother’s head, speaks in his mother’s voice.

“Jason? “Why are you procrastinating so much?”

“Jason?”

“Jason.”

“Jason Jason Jason Jason Jason Jason Jason Jason Jason Jason Jason Jason Jason Jason Jason Jason Jason Jason Jason ….

”

He covered his ears in the living room, where his mother’s voice echoed. Before I knew it, bloody tears were flowing from my eyes.

When his vision became blurred from bloody tears, he opened his eyes again.

“Ah ah….”

A poster with the name of a metal group printed in a rough font on a black background and a poster with a Moe character drawn on it.

Looking at that familiar scenery, he realized.

“Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! “Fuck!”

He cursed and covered himself with blankets.

Now I remembered.

The day he entered Space Survival, he was not at home. My last memory was wearing a VR device on my head for broadcasting in my room in an old apartment.

The situation he is experiencing now is surprisingly realistic, but it is by no means ‘reality’.

Then someone knocked on the door.

“Jason! “How long are you going to sleep?”

“….”

“Jason, I always say… AAAAAAAAAH!”

“mom?”

He was startled when he heard a tearing scream coming from outside the door and looked at the doorway.

After a while, red liquid slowly flowed under the door.

“Ugh! Aaaaaaaaaah!”

Jason was tearing out his hair frantically due to the guilt of losing his mother.

At that time, the doorknob of the tightly closed door slowly turned.

“omg!”

Jason, who woke up in bed again in the same position, realized.

It doesn’t matter where this is.

The important thing is that he has become a prisoner of this nightmarish world.

“Jason! “How long are you going to sleep?”

Mother’s voice heard from outside.

That voice that I always missed now feels scary.

–

Thanks to devouring the Green Gallagon, the urgent fire was extinguished.

Number 26, who had the most serious injuries among us, ate more meat than usual. I ate two wings, each measuring slightly less than 10 meters, by myself.

The guy, whose stomach was full, bloated himself up and fell asleep right away. Thanks to this, it was possible to inject enough psychic power to awaken PS-111, which was in a dormant state.

When PS-111 woke up, he handed over some of the remains of the Screamer. It may be biological tissue, but the metal part does not help recharge energy.

Since I was in ‘smart weakling’ form, I was able to get enough energy from small amounts of food. The penetrating wound on my neck has almost completely recovered, and the side effects from hunting have disappeared.

After taking a breather, we ended up spending the night in the hole I had dug.

I quietly woke up after seeing No. 26 and PS-111 sleeping.

This is to take a closer look at the newly acquired perks while feasting on Jason.

‘I think it would be a noisy task to check here.’

I’m thinking of calling Jason in person and asking him. Considering his personality, it is expected that he will be quite noisy even if he becomes a private person.

As I got out of the hole and was walking among the trees, I heard footsteps behind me.

It was Sky’s mother, a griffon whose beak had not yet fully healed.

｢Are you going to check the perks?｣

[Z(Yes)]

｢I’m going with you.｣

I tried to say it wasn’t necessary, but I stopped when I saw the look in her eyes.

She skipped it during the day because she was out of sorts, but Jason is one of her enemies. This is because he ordered Muriel to kill her family.

The number of prints inherits some of the memories of the original. Elements that are considered important in the original, recent experience remain even after the number of people has been changed.

Jason’s friend probably remembers things about Muriel.

‘There’s probably a lot I want to say.’

Compared to Muriel, Jason died a relatively merciful death. There was nothing we could do because they were trying to escape using means unknown to us.

However, to avenge her family’s grudge, she even put parasites in her head. It might be harsh to tell her to forget about the situation as it was.

‘I need to get information about other colleagues anyway. It wouldn’t be a bad idea for her to hear it.’

[Zuzuzu zuzuz zuzuzu (if that makes you feel better)]

｢Thank you.｣

I moved with Heavenly Mother to a place a little away from the pit.

The dark forest had a rather scary atmosphere due to the constant sound of the snow storm, but there was no one among us who was afraid of it.

‘I think this would be appropriate.’

I found a suitable place and half-prone, changing the nature of the face. One of the human face trees hidden by fur was sucked into the body.

And a new face soaked in sticky liquid emerged from the spot. That face, with skin as smooth as a newly born baby, belonged to the cult priest Jason.

After a moment, Jason opened his eyes.

“Ugh!”

[Zuzu (quiet)]

When I put my finger to his mouth and gestured for him to be quiet, Jason shut his mouth.

Inmyeonsu is one of my body parts. His every move is under my control.

[Zuzzu zuzu zuzuzuzu (Answer the question]

“….”

Jason answered, blinking frantically. I gave him permission to speak.

“I’ll tell you everything! So please, go to hell.” Please don’t send it back!”

Usually, when you become a human being, you tend to listen carefully to what I say because you think that all control over your body has been taken away. And the reason is unknown, but as time goes by, you want to be used as a human being rather than sleeping. .

‘For something like that, he’s very obedient.’

Jason took a cooperative attitude that made it hard to imagine his arrogant self when he was alive. Even Sky’s mother, who was watching from the side, was dumbfounded. ‘Well, it probably has nothing to do with me

.

‘ If he does it, it’s only good for me. I started asking him questions.

What special privileges he had, personal information about his faction comrades, etc. The

conversation with Inmyeonsu only lasted about an hour, but the amount of information I gained was by no means small. I’ve never gotten this much quality information in a while.

‘Let’s think about that later.’ What

‘s important now is the perks.

There were a total of three perks that Jason had. One was the perk he had in this world. It was a unique ability obtained while coming, and the other two were stolen by killing players.

‘Psychic skill synthesis Coldblood’s particle creature control ability Metallic Gremlin’s warp ability.’

The second ability was embodied in a golden shape on the creature’s back. The third ability is the one he tried to use when escaping.

‘…he managed to win this.’

The decisive reason for Jason’s defeat was that he possessed disproportionately strong power. He became intoxicated with his own power. If it weren’t for him, we would have lost.

‘I should be careful too.’

In the end, it was my carelessness that led to Adhai being taken away by Ham Ort. After killing Jason, I was in a hurry and made an easy decision. Now, I have a lot to lose

. . It’s different from the situation in the game, where I only had to take care of my one life.

And in the game, if you die, you can come back to life, but not here. If not only me but also No. 26 Aadhai Sky Mother PS-111 dies, that’s the end.

‘It’s not that it doesn’t have the resurrection feature, but…’

Now I can never get it. Since it is a trait that can only be obtained by risking one’s life even after becoming an adult, it would be quicker to just ignore it.

‘You have to be more careful to protect them.’

I gathered myself again and reactivated the text box I had checked during the day.

“Predation effect activated! Succeeded in stealing ‘Jason (Jason Turningham)’s’ privilege! ｣

｢Can be fused with the possessed ‘Space Bacteria’ and ‘Flame of Illusion’. Please select a characteristic. The result of your choice is influenced by the characteristics of the material used.”

“PS: You are at a crossroads of important choices. Please choose carefully. ｣

｢Time remaining until attribute selection: 13:09:30｣

｢Eligible for use of the attribute enhancement system. Would you like to use the system? ‘

This is related to Jason’s second perk.’

It is the ability to control the golden shape he used, that is, the ability to control particle creatures obtained from Coldblood.

The remaining two perks are locked because I have nothing to use as perk material among the characteristics I possess. Jason doesn’t know what characteristics they are compatible with. I think we’ll have to experiment with that part while acquiring various characteristics.

‘I think it should probably be a characteristic related to the nature of the privilege.’

The ‘Mark of a Strong Enemy’ trait, ‘Plunder’s Irregular Polyhedron’, obtained by killing Muriel previously, used ‘Metal Absorption’ as a material. Perhaps thanks to this, he gained the ability to eat ‘weapons’ and characterize the weapons’ unique properties.

If so, it is highly likely that particle biological control capabilities will be similar.

‘However, this time there are two characteristics that can be used as materials.’

One is ‘Space Bacteria’, which is an infection-related trait, and the other is ‘Flame of Hallucination’, which is a superpower-related trait. Characteristics with completely different personalities were selected for fusion.

‘It’s not like I can’t guess at all.’

If you look at the nature of the perk, it is not completely unrelated to the characteristics it responds to.

First, looking at space bacteria, there is a similarity in that they produce and manage small particles.

Jason said that the particle creature control ability is to freely control the golden particle creature through a special organ located between the spinal cord and the brain. The reason particle organisms rely heavily on the host’s senses is because they are attached to special organs.

Simply put, it can be thought of as creating new limbs whenever necessary.

‘Perhaps if I fuse it with space bacteria, it will have a form similar to the ability it used.’

I am not totally sure.

‘Anyway, let’s skip this part.’

Next is the flame of hallucination.

The Flame of Hallucination can be considered a downgraded version of the Purple Spray Gun. As the name suggests, it has the ability to emit fire made of psychic power.

‘It would have been great if the firepower had been a little stronger.’

The firepower of the hallucinatory flames is truly disastrous. I wonder if it will be called purple urine in the game.

However, it can be used later as a material with powerful fusion properties, so it is worth obtaining considering the future. In addition, it can be used to create powerful characteristics through the transcendence system.

It is understandable why a trait that does not seem particularly useful other than potential is used as a badge of a powerful enemy.

‘This part is clearly related to the original owner.’

The original owner of the particle creature control ability was Coldblood Player.

Coldblood is an unfortunate race whose entire race was mortgaged due to a wrong contract with Vortex One.

As a result, Coldblood players often use abilities that originated from Vortex One. In fact, depending on the player’s choice, an event may appear that uses Vortex One’s unique ability, ‘Power of the Abyss’.

In any case, if we speculate based on this, the use of superpower-related technology as a material may have originated from Cold Blood’s unique setting.

‘Because Vortex One is the strongest psychic power creature.’

Jason said that the Coldblood player who had this perk took the Vortex One cult route.

In other words, if it is combined with a supernatural power type characteristic, it can be implemented in a form similar to the Vortex One ability used by the original owner.

‘Let’s sum it up again.’

If space bacteria are used as a material to make a badge of a strong enemy, there is a possibility that it will have characteristics similar to the golden shape used by Jason.

On the other hand, if you use hallucinatory flames as a material, it will be implemented with characteristics similar to those used by the original owner, the Coldblood player.

‘…Well, it’s all just a guess.’

The world of space survival rarely teaches players anything straight. Everything has to be discovered by the players themselves.

‘Shall I postpone it?’

There are still 13 hours left. If you happen to specialize in a perk and the mine feature comes out, the damage will be quite significant.

After thinking for a few minutes, I shook my head.

‘no. Let’s choose now.’

I don’t think I’ll come up with an answer even if I think about it for 13 hours straight. It’s true that I thought I should move carefully, but that doesn’t mean I should postpone the decision all the time.

No matter what characteristics appear, it will be much more productive to quickly identify them and research how to use them.

With that in mind, I chose the characteristics I would use as a badge of a strong enemy.
