I Became an Evolving Space Monster Chapter 372

 
–
 
 
“Six ‘Pileflies’ are approaching from the rear.”
“okay!”
 
At PS-111’s words, the Heavenly Mother struck the air hard with her large wings. Her body accelerated and rushed forward.
 
After that, dragonfly monsters with wide wings followed.
 
Their identity is ‘Pilefly’.
 
It is a carnivorous insect that mainly lives on volcanic or rocky planets.
 
It flies by riding rising air currents like a glider, and when it finds prey, it has the habit of catching it by shooting a large living stake attached to its abdomen.
 
It is thanks to the living pile that the Pilefly, which is only 3 or 4 meters in size, can survive on this planet infested with all kinds of monsters. The biological stakes they shoot have very high throwing speed and penetration power. Therefore, it can kill even heavily armored creatures such as Vulkarox.
 
Biotic stakes with such terrifying power rained down on the black-winged thunderbird.
 
The Heavenly Mother descended to the ground to avoid being bombarded with 70cm projectiles. The stakes narrowly passed over the black feathers covering its back.
 
If I flew faster here, I could avoid their pursuit, but the situation was not easy. That’s because of PS-111 hanging from her hind legs.
 
PS-111, which was holding on to its hind legs with its claws, moved its long tail and pointed backwards. The demolisher attached to the end of the tail activated and began shooting material decomposition bombs.
 
“Keeek!”
 
A giant dragonfly that was following the air current lost one of its wings and fell. The navy blue energy bullet that flew next hit the wings or heads of the three birds.
 
Of the six that followed, four fell to the ground. Even though more than half of their fellow countrymen were dead, the pursuers had no intention of retreating. They just kept shooting stakes and getting rid of them.
 
It is clearly abnormal for a predator at the bottom of the food chain to move like that.
 
“There is no end to this.”
｢I know…tsk!｣
 
At that moment, three or four of the living stakes flew toward the wing. It is already too late to avoid or intercept. Just as the flying stake was about to hit the wing, a black arm grew out of the feathers and bounced the stake away.
 
It was defended using the function of ‘Obsidian Arms’, the equipment worn by the Mother of Heaven. While she concentrated on controlling the black arm, PS-111 used the Demolisher to intercept the remaining enemies.
 
But I couldn’t rest assured. The real threat still remains.
 
The Mother of Heaven looked down at the earth. There, animals with their instincts completely destroyed were gathered there. A strange-looking being was floating above their heads.
 
This is Salman, Wolf Ranker, who transformed into the phantom beast ‘Simurgh’.
 
His current appearance was different from when he fought earlier.
 
The basic characteristics, such as the head of a canine and the body of a peacock, remained the same, but the wings became abnormally large. Its 10-meter-long body grew to the point where it looked small, giving it a body shape similar to that of a butterfly or moth.
 
In addition, the emerald and lapis lazuli colored feathers that covered its wings and tail continued to disintegrate and disappear. What replaced it were light particles and lumps of energy.
 
The gigantic wings had already disappeared and were replaced by a variety of lights. It still maintained its wing shape, but the light inside was constantly fluctuating, making it look very unstable.
 
Eventually, the confusingly tangled stream of light became more intense and began to erupt into the surroundings.
 
‘Dangerous!’
 
The Mother of Heaven saw this and quickly spread her wings to increase altitude. At the same time, hundreds of heat rays extending out in the form of stems flew towards her.
 
Heat rays as thick as the waist of an adult man pour down like rain. She performed a brilliant evasive maneuver and avoided the pursuing barrage of light.
 
However, with PS-111 in hand, it was difficult to completely avoid enemy attacks like before. In the end, PS-111, which was hanging on its hind legs, was grazed by the heat ray.
 
‘Tch!’
 
PS-111’s body was also quite durable, but it was not strong enough to withstand the Simurgh’s energy attacks. This is especially true if the attack is strengthened by unknown factors.
 
The Mother of Heaven hid in the clouds and got as far away from where he was as possible.
 
The enemy, who had been firing heat rays at her, stopped attacking her when she retreated. Instead, he just sent a new subordinate.
 
“■■■■■■!”
“Kiriririk!”
 
No matter how you look at it, it’s a loud noise that doesn’t sound normal. As Salman howled like an animal, the pileflies that were wandering around him took off.
 
The Mother of Heaven raised her altitude and hid in the dark clouds nearby.
 
“Are you okay?”
“Two arms were damaged by highly accelerated, unidentified particle energy. It is quite useful to analyze the properties and acceleration conditions of the particle in question….”
‘…I think it’s okay for now.’
 
If a normal creature lost two of its eight legs, it would be seriously injured, but most of PS-111’s body is made of machinery. Losing the weapon was painful, but it didn’t seem like there was much trouble moving.
 
While the battle was in a lull, she quickly reviewed the situation.
 
‘What on earth happened?’
 
After being hit by a spear and falling, he suddenly changed like that.
 
The characteristic of the priest’s golden spear is that the more blood it contains, the sharper and more lethal it becomes. If you kill the opponent, you kill him, you don’t mutate him like that. The armor he wears also has nothing to do with mutation.
 
‘Then there is only one answer.’
 
An improved form of psionium that he is believed to have taken.

That is most likely the cause.
 
PS-111 said. The problem arose after taking a stimulant similar to Psionium.
 
Psionium Ampoule takes the user to a higher level in a short period of time. For example, if Wolff takes this, his level of deification increases by one. If you use the ampoule at a stage where you can no longer go up, it will not work.
 
In other words, you cannot enjoy the strengthening effect if you eat it in the stage before the final mission or in the incarnation state. This is the first time she has seen the phenomenon of the body collapsing and twisting due to taking drugs.
 
‘If it wasn’t for that armor, I would have died a long time ago.’
 
The Mother of Heaven glared at Salman, who looked as small as a fingernail.
 
The eyesight of a thunderbird is much higher than that of a griffon. Thanks to this, she could clearly see what state he was in.
 
While the entire body was strangely mutated, the only intact part was the golden armor covering the torso and head. The ‘priest’s golden spear’ that she had thrown was stuck in the chest of the armor.
 
This equipment allows the wearer to recover quickly when injured. Even with a hole in his chest and his body collapsing, he is still alive thanks to that armor.
 
‘If the physical breakdown he’s experiencing is due to the side effects of the drug…’
 
Once the effects of psionium are over, your body will return to normal. It is unclear whether his spirit will return as well, but the possibility of recovery cannot be ruled out.
 
Whatever it is, if it takes longer than this, the chances of him escaping will increase.
 
“We exposed too many cards. We have to catch him here somehow.”
“How about this method? “While I am the bait and attract attention, the ‘middle child’ approaches and subdues the target.”
“I thought about that too, but it doesn’t work either. If you do that, it will be too dangerous for you.”
 
Even if Mountain Crawler is defeated, there are many monsters on the ground protecting Salman. Moreover, guys like Lavalaptor are much faster than PS-111.
 
If she fails to catch Salman, he could die.

“The potential risk of targeting is very high. If suppression fails, the unobservable risk factor increases significantly.”
｢….｣
“Even if it costs me my body, it is beneficial to subdue the target.”
 
After hearing his harsh words, she recalled a memory from the past.
 
On the day I fought Muriel, my husband Earth’s father said something similar. While she is being attacked by the enemy, she must step forward and suffocate the enemy.
 
At the time, she expected Muriel to have brought a dangerous weapon. I didn’t know it was a Thunder God, but there was a weapon equivalent to it in the hands of the enemy. No matter how strong my husband was, I thought it would be difficult to withstand the firepower of an orbital weapon-level weapon.
 
‘It’s the same as then.’
 
Her choice was to move with her husband.
 
And that was the wrong decision. Earth’s father suffered great damage while protecting her from the fire of the Thunder God, which led to his defeat.
 
Would the outcome have been different if she had made a different choice?
 
‘…I don’t know.’
 
The moment of choice has come again, but is it because of memories of the past? I couldn’t make a decision hastily.
 
As their worries deepened, the pile flies got closer to where they were.
 
“There is no time. Please make a decision quickly.”
“I know.”
“I don’t have time.” “Why?”
“I know I have to do something before he runs away!” But…huh?”
 
The Mother of Heaven, who was streaming thoughts mixed with worry, sensed a familiar thought caught in the middle. The tip of the elongated snout, resembling a pterosaur, pointed upward.
 
At the front, a group of pileflies were preparing to attack. The bio-stakes growing in their stomachs were aimed squarely at her and PS-111.
 
The moment the pile is about to leave the ship.
 
A flash of red appeared, tearing through the dark clouds above them.
 
“Keeek?!”
“Kyaak!”
 
The pile flies that collided with the red light shattered into pieces like bugs hit by an electric fly swatter. In an instant, a being that dyed the gray clouds red flew in front of her.
 
｢Ugly Friend｣｢Worried?｣

Little Gallagon called her with a strange nickname as he always did.

But now, I felt very welcomed by that obnoxious school of thought.
 
Aadhai, the red rascal, came to help her.
