Chapter 262: 262
Ep. 262
–
Kadun was once a slave.
Actually, it's not anything special. Because most Wolfs live as slaves.
Men are combat slaves and women are sex slaves. If you are unlucky, you may become a test subject for Megacorp Star Union and end up in the lab.
The only better life for Wolff would be to become a space pirate.
What crime have they committed that they are suffering like this? When young Kadun cried out to the chieftain of the tribe, the chieftain said:
It is said that they were once gods who ruled the planet, but they quarreled with each other due to their arrogance and violence. After an almost eternity of struggle, Wolf lost his godly power and fell into ruin. And God's descendants are paying for the sins of their ancestors.
It didn't take long for me to realize that the chieftain's story was nonsense.
The tribes are scattered somewhere in the universe where the chieftain has already died. They were all wrong.
The reason Wolf is persecuted is simple. Because they are weaker than cults.
The order of nature is a cruel law. Just as a predator is not morally reprehensible for eating its prey, it is natural for a powerful cult to trample on the weak Wolf.
In order to avoid being stepped on by the strong, you have no choice but to become strong yourself. Having traveled through countless arenas and soaked his hands in blood, he became stronger than any other Wolff.
Montana Marcio, a different kind of powerhouse from the cult, was the only one who could see his potential. He spared no effort in supporting Kadoon's continued growth.
Kadoon also obeyed Montana, knowing full well that serving him would benefit him.
It has been 10 years since Kadun became the deputy head of the Marcio Cartel. He even gained the 'body of god' that the chieftain had spoken of in the past.
Although he had tremendous power in his hands, he was not impressed. Because Wolf's myth was no longer an important factor to him.
Just as a cult follows providence, Kadoon served the order of the might of the jungle.
So, he was scheduled to train today at the private training center located at the headquarters. Unless a subordinate suddenly rushed into the training room.
"There's fog in the inactive area?"
"yes! "A pirate on patrol filmed this!"
A subordinate, full of energy, handed him a terminal. When I pressed the button, the recorded video was played.
"It's a religious area for cultists. "Did the life support manager say there was nothing wrong?"
"They say it is not a device problem, but someone artificially spread it."
"It's artificial. "What are the results of the analysis?"
"They say engineers are gathering together to investigate."
Although the spread of contaminants within the district was a serious matter, it was not something that Kadoon should be directly involved in. It is a question of expertise rather than authority, and it would be more reasonable to resolve it by talking to engineers.
Even the subordinate in front of him would not know that fact. The reason he came to report to Kadun was different.
"I guess that has something to do with the fog and the druggies. Before the wimps died, they talked about spiders in the fog."
"Spider in the fog?"
Kadun checked the video again.
It was hard to see what was in the fog. However, the flow was not natural and abnormal. As if to hide something inside.
'A creature that controls the fog that drives humans crazy.'
Several similar creatures come to mind. 'Angel Spider', which catches its prey with a web made of psychic power, 'Red Mist', a wild beast that neutralizes its prey by spraying hallucinogenic pheromones, etc. As the vice president of the Marcio Cartel, who relays pirate transactions, he has come into contact with many rare creatures.
"Bring the guys who took this video."
"The patrol unit that took the video showed symptoms similar to those of drug addicts…"
I don't know exactly what that creature was, but it didn't seem like an easy opponent. Well, that means his subordinate came to visit Kadun.
'What kind of bastard left something like that loose?'
Not all pirates who come to the fortress are successful in trading smuggled animals. There are many cases where transactions fail. Some pirates who fail in their transactions abandon rare animals in inactive areas and run away because they do not want to bear the cost of transportation.
Kadun saw this incident as a similar case.
The problem is that the damage is much greater than other times.
"I need to be there to catch that guy. I will dispatch. "Get everyone ready to go with you."
"All right!"
"Spray gas in the area before entering. "Even if we can't kill it, we can weaken it."
"yep."
Kadoon thought that today's training should be about catching that monster.
–
'The bait took bite.'
An hour ago now, a signal came from the parasite that my consciousness was connected to. Five minions sent to capture the enemy. Connection with them was lost.
'You must be preparing hard by now, right?'
After bringing all the children to the religious area, I threw bait to lure the dock leader away.
This means that I may be the source of the virus spreading throughout this fortress.
For the past few days, there have been people wandering around the fortress who have gone crazy because of me. Except for a few who are ruled by parasites, the rest are all driven to madness by the 'messenger of chaos'.
Some of them have mental parasites called 'madness bombs' lodged in their heads. When a person infected with the Insanity Bomb dies, it spreads to those nearby. Just as a dandelion spreads its seeds in the wind, the madness bomb is spreading quickly.
Now even pirates know that it is not because of drugs that an unspecified number of people suddenly go crazy. The problem is that we don't know why this happens.
They would have found out if they had a doctor investigate, but they chose another option instead. If any abnormal symptoms appear, incinerate immediately.
Although it may seem ignorant, from their perspective, there is a reason for their actions. Regardless of which cartel, the existence of a doctor is precious to Space Dog. If a doctor were to become infected with a virus of unknown origin, the damage would be severe.
Fortunately, the Marcio Cartel is a wealthy cartel that uses a space fortress as its base. Of course, there will be many doctors and researchers, but timing is the problem. Now they are preparing for a large-scale auction. Many distinguished guests will visit this place, so if you make a mistake and lose the doctor, it will be a big problem.
'Because it is better for hundreds of subordinates to die than to lose the doctor.'
If you were a space dog where the lives of your members were the same as the lives of flies, you would think so.
Of course, this is a temporary solution and the best way is to eliminate the factors causing the problem.
In such a situation, what would happen if I appeared wearing a suspicious fog? What if the people who filmed me even showed abnormal symptoms? Those over there will definitely think that I am a source of pollution.
'It's staged, though.'
The fog is due to the enhanced Gremlin Moss effect, and the people going crazy are due to the Herald of Chaos and the enhanced parasite effects.
Of course, they won't know they're being fooled. Even if they found out, the fortress would already be on the verge of collapse.
'huh?'
While I was waiting for them to arrive, I smelled a strange smell from somewhere.
I, who was lying face down in a church where one wall had collapsed, looked up. The auxiliary organ under the chin quickly read the changes that occurred in the entire space.
'Is this really how it comes out?'
There are toxic gases mixed in the air. The intention is probably to weaken me by spraying poisonous gas in the area before coming in to capture me.
'Well, it's no use.'
Unless it's the swampy area of the cult sacred planet we went to before, it can't cause fatal damage to us.
'No. 26 can endure this much, and Aadhai has grown stronger and stronger, so he is not addicted.'
Since PS-111 is a mechanical life form to begin with, it is free from addiction problems. I wonder if Heavenly Mother is a little worried.
I took out the monster's tentacles that I had hidden away and fired a wave at her.
[Zuzuz, zuzuzu, zuzu, zuzuzu (They are spreading poisonous gas)]
"Don't worry. "Because it has already transformed."
"A large amount of chemicals were confirmed in the air. "Please be careful with the 'middle baby'."
「…I would have been very grateful if you hadn't called me a middle-aged baby.」
「What's going on」「What's wrong?」 「
There's something strange in the sky.」
「Dogging?」「I don't understand」「I can't」
「I have to keep it up.」
「I」「I can't see」「Where are you?」
"Gallagon's gas flow cannot be observed visually."
Everyone hid in different places and in their own way. Toxic gas spread throughout the area, but no one was in pain.
'It seemed like he used his brain to some extent, but…'
Unfortunately, the opponent wasn't very good.
I listened to the kids chatting and waited for them to come in.
After about an hour, the toxic gas in the area began to dissipate. They are also slowly preparing to rush in.
Soon, a slight vibration was felt in the air. Three patrol ships full of pirates entered the area.
'You're here.'
The pirates aboard the patrol ship are all wearing mid-level reinforced suits and armed with psychic rifles and Gauss rifles. In addition, the deputy chieftain came wearing a Wolff-style uniform and even a high-level reinforced uniform.
'That's an incredible amount of specs for a pirate subject.'
Muriel's subordinates weren't that bad either. Can we really say that he is a pirate running an orbital colony?
'The problem is that everything is being read.'
There are three minions who have not yet been discovered. They are sending me information, one person aboard each patrol ship.
They think the 5 people they threw as bait are the end. They have no idea that three spies are with them.
'Then let's get started.'
I organized the information I had obtained and sent it to the kids. We have fought together more than dozens of times so far. The guys quickly understood my wavelength and started moving.
Following the children's movements, I also crawled out of the church. My giant winged arms trampled the cult symbol on the ground, crushing it.
'The distance from them is 1km.'
One of the patrol ships is attempting to land in a square 1km away. Considering the speed at which I move, the distance is not far at all.
I moved my wing arms and fighting arms and ran in their direction.
Buildings made of alloy blocked me in the middle, but my body pierced through the obstacles. As I race, destroying buildings, I see a pirate ship.
There are dozens of meters left until the patrol ship lands. I pulled out the erosion tentacles hidden on my back.
Six huge tentacles fly towards the ship, like giant snakes that appear in mythology. The patrol ship's guns move quickly, as if they didn't know they would be attacked while landing.
But that choice is the wrong answer. They had to take evasive maneuvers to avoid my tentacles.
My tentacles wrapped around the stern of the corvette. The hull shook greatly and the ship's guns completely missed their target.
I captured the patrol ship and pulled its tentacles towards me. The pirates aboard the ship opened the hatch at the rear as if they thought it would not work. This is because you will not die if you jump from a few tens of meters since you are wearing a mid-level reinforced suit.
It's wrong. Because my eroding tentacles are holding on to the stern of the ship. Some of the tentacles swallowed the pirates floating in the air whole.
"be careful!"
"Fuck you baby!"
"Ugh!"
Unfortunately, the number of my erosion tentacles is not enough to devour all my enemies. Only four pirates were eaten by the tentacles, and the rest landed safely on the ground.
'It's not over yet.'
"Everyone scatter!"
"Crazy monster bird…uhhh?!"
"The ship is falling! damage!"
I dropped the corvette with its tentacles wrapped around them on their heads.
Heavy drinking, the smell of gunpowder and blood.
Elements familiar to Eimov announced the start of the hunt.
