Chapter 159
Episode 159. Defeat Plague (7)
Quadduk.
The hideous legs of the second host collide with Yoon Taeyang’s legs.
The abnormally oversized leg broke, pouring crimson blood.
The Messiah looked at the sun.
Messiah could of course subdue them.
It is possible by utilizing the characteristics of a vampire and properly combining the skills possessed as card artifacts.
Cuckoo!
When one host collapses, the balance is upset.
The scene of the melee unfolded as if it were disturbed in an instant.
Dozens of choices are given and erased every second.
will you attack
will you avoid
If you evade, do you go right or left? Or will you fall back?
Taeyang takes it for granted that he chooses only the best option and makes the dizzy board his own.
Kwadeuk.
The result is a fist that goes straight into one second host.
Crumpled chunks of meat, two in one. two to three
increases in an instant
The war situation was tilted in the blink of an eye.
to the sun.
gulp.
Messiah was thirsty from the depths of his throat.
thirst for talent.
and thirst for power.
It wasn’t because he was envious of being able to fight without affecting the laboratory.
Right now, neither Ran nor Salomon could have subdued the hosts so neatly.
‘How on earth?’
How can the sun handle mana so well?
Can you do skillization casually?
How can a human on earth who has lived in peace be so good at fighting?
The current stage is the 31st floor.
Few players can keep up with the tempo of the sun on the 31st floor.
Salomon is the Messiah. And a few players who have grown enough to be pushed by S-rank clans.
Objectively, of course, Messiah was also a great player.
but.
“Anyway, it’s just about following the tempo.”
Barely too.
0 achievements.
One of the five occupations that stop at just selecting initial equipment.
We obviously started from the same starting point, but why is it so different?
Is it because the sun is special?
As always, should I live with just one proposition that the world is absurd?
Messiah didn’t want to think that way.
I didn’t want to think that Taeyang was special.
humans are equal
If that person can do it, so can I.
I wanted to believe that.
I wanted to see Taeyang’s achievements not as individual specialties, but as the potential of players from Earth.
When I first joined Taeyang’s company, I thought that I would be satisfied if I could be of any help.
But people are creatures that want to sit when they stand and lie down when they sit.
Messiah’s hopes grew.
I wanted to help as a teammate, not just run after her panting.
tadak.
The sun kicked off the pillar and jumped up.
Generally a bad choice.
Unless you have wings, it is impossible to change direction in the air, and if that happens, the line of movement will be specified and you will be hit with a great skill.
However, Taeyang twisted his body in the air using the mana emitted from the dragon heart and his unique mana control.
At the same time, using the martial arts he learned in the dimensional labyrinth, he put in an attack made into a skill and stepped on the transcendental advance as soon as he stepped on the ground.
A skill enough to break the heart of the Messiah in an instant.
I managed to do that complex process without incident.
‘Can I do it too?’
Mana management skill.
This is something the Messiah cannot do.
Starting from the 36th floor, the growth rate slows down.
All 7 card slots were opened, and the 8th card slot was also opened in the soul training ground.
and filled it all up.
Now, the only systematic growth method supported in the dimensional labyrinth is achievements.
Messiah muttered lowly.
“growth.”
An absolute proposition that is rediscovered.
You have to grow up somehow.
If you don’t grow, you’ll fall behind instead of following the sun.
Seeing the sun destroying the second host, the Messiah made that resolution.
***
The sun bowed its head and apologized to the Messiah and Salomon.
especially to the Messiah.
It is because the messiah was almost in danger because of the sun’s misjudgment.
“sorry.”
“No, I made the same decision as you. There is nothing good if the data is damaged.”
Messiah calmly shook his head.
The sun looked at such a messiah.
“… … .”
To be honest, I was also frustrated.
Isn’t life more important than information?
There is a priority in everything, but why?
Even if the data is just slightly damaged… … .
‘No, no.’
The sun shook his head, cutting off the flow of thoughts he was trying to connect.
can’t curse
Messiah is like that because it’s the sun’s fault.
All the sun can do for the Messiah is an apology.
“Then let’s find out what the journal is.”
The laboratories in the energy weapons engineering section were large.
“I said it was the largest of all the sections.”
“you’re right. The Energy Weapons Engineering section is the largest.”
“Did you say Kanter was the head of the Energy Weapons Engineering Lab?”
“yes.”
Urf and the natives who had been to the lab searched the lab.
Of course, with minimal noise and as quickly as possible.
Salomon and Rann help the natives, while Sun and Messiah stand guard.
Of course, there are more things stored in computers, but research results in the form of reports are also scattered everywhere, so it doesn’t seem difficult to find them.
but.
Urf, who was looking through some data, frowned.
“The warrior’s data is being damaged.”
“damage? how much?”
“There are data that can be found out, but… … . I don’t think I can say that it is 100% preserved. It looks like they’ve had a whole battle besides us.”
It’s probably because the second host ran amok.
It felt like the Messiah’s sacrifice was fading, but I couldn’t help it.
Until the battle that had already taken place, Taeyang and his party could not control it.
Salomon muttered as he was looking at some data.
“It looks like you were researching something other than plasma energy.”
“I guess so.”
Ran recalled Urf’s briefing.
According to Urf, the Energy Weapons section focused on energy rather than weapons.
This is because the fortress before the Host Crisis was in a peaceful state with little war.
Weapons need to be developed to become data and become data that only takes up space on a computer.
However, the energy affects the lives of the residents of the fortress as soon as it is produced.
It was natural for energy to take priority.
“I found it!”
It was Urf who visited Kanter’s lab.
If anything, it was a natural thing.
Urf was a person who worked as a research director, and it cannot be said that he had many exchanges, but it was because he interacted with other research directors as a research director.
“… … Good find.”
The sun murmured as it looked at the building Urf pointed to.
The reason why Urfman was able to find the lab among the seven investigators.
It was because Kanter’s laboratory was half destroyed to the extent that the shape could not be recognized.
“How about the materials?”
“hmm… … I can’t wait.”
Salomon shook his head.
Other places also suffered from the aftermath of the battle, but the laboratory was particularly bad.
To guess the reason, I would like to think that it was because there was data to be protected until the end of the day.
In the fight to the end, he suffered even greater damage.
Sun’s prediction was not wrong.
“I found the car!”
Urf picked up the half-shattered machine with a trembling hand.
Circumstantial evidence suggests that this was Kanter’s journal.
“… … can you read it?”
“If you try to restore it as much as possible, you will be able to read it roughly.”
The moment Urf carefully put the machine into his bosom, the ground started to vibrate again.
Koo Goo Goo Goo.
A much stronger vibration than the previous earthquake.
For a moment, my body was trembling.
The sun screamed at Urf.
“Urf! Come out at once!”
Even so, it is a half-destroyed building.
If it collapses suddenly, it is the end as it is.
Urf’s life might as well.
Urf seemed to want to take care of the data around him more, but circumstances did not allow it.
After rushing out of the lab, Taeyang sighed.
“thank god. Save it even if it is.”
“… … I mean.”
There was a hint of regret in Urf’s voice.
Returning to the shelter of the safe zone, Urf desperately restored the journal.
After fixing the machine and using other tools, he immersed himself in it, but Taeyang and his party, who were unfamiliar with the machine, could only tell that they were working hard.
While Urf and some smart guys were working hard on data recovery, Taeyang’s party again stepped into the energy weapons engineering section, but there was no particular result.
This is because the areas where important data were predicted to be stored were severely damaged.
“But this is to some extent natural.”
Messiah nodded at Ran’s words.
“The more important the data, the more people protect it and the host. In particular, the second host will be attracted to places where there are a lot of people.” “Still, I don’t think the hosts raided the researchers to damage the data.”
Traces of the hosts were only focused on attacking living creatures.
“but. If the host raided the lab to damage the data in the first place, it doesn’t make sense that one of the most important data, Kanter’s diary, is still there.”
Although damaged, it is in a condition worth trying to restore.
In other words, it is said that it is in a condition that can be read to some extent.
If the second host had been ordered by the supercomputer to expunge such data, the already late Taeyang and his party would have found only the pillar roots of the laboratory, let alone the diary.
By the time I was contemplating whether I should leave Urf behind and enter the bio-weapons engineering section, Urf completed the restoration, albeit roughly.
It’s a matter of course, but as much as it was horribly smashed, it seems that only a small part could be restored.
“But it makes sense.”
“meaning?”
“If you read it, you will understand.”
Urf held out a stack of scanned papers from the journal.
… … The supercomputer is working normally.
Aris xxx xx xx antagonizes xx.
It’s an expected reaction, but frankly, it’s shocking.
Making a weapon that xx humans… … .
But I can’t help it.
His definition is too vague.
Find out his true identity as soon as possible… … .
There are only seven lines of restored characters on one page.
However, it was damaged everywhere.
Taeyang turned the paper over, reading only the parts he could read.
… … Supercomputers are developing themselves.
10th generation supercomputers are truly humanity’s last hope.
Synthesized xx weapons and made xx more powerful xx xx.
Both axx and x are only doing the job of dividing the result x produced by the super computer at some point.
ah named it
Undead Soldier.
They are xx xx xx.
Reinforcement is xxxx xxx xx xx.
… … .
The xx expedition failed.
In the expedition, xxx undead soldiers appeared on xxx and xx people.
Fortunately (I don’t know if the expression xxx is fortunate) xx succeeded.
Didn’t xxx to anyone. no i couldn’t
It’s not xx setting.
The error is also xxx.
This is just mismanagement.
xxx is originally set to xxx.
… … .
The sun looked at Urf with a hardened face.
Urf nodded.
The sun continued to turn the chapter.
It was quite long, but the pages turned quickly.
This is because the restored amount was only about one or two lines.
… … .
There are many complaints from researchers in the Department of Energy Engineering.
If you increase the plasma energy efficiency, you’ll be much better than the undead.
I don’t know.
xxx Can’t fight directly.
Undead soldiers are needed.
xx production should be done even if it is 1 second quickly.
… … .
Salomon lifted his head as if he had nothing to look at.
“The first host was also a monster created by the natives. If this is the case, it also explains why we used plasma energy.”
Ran said.
“The second host was the one that failed while trying to make a secondary transforming weapon using that host. No, is it correct to call it a host? There was an official name for it, Undead Soldier.”
the sun shone in my eyes
“And I finally found it.”
The natives developed host undead soldiers to fight something.
That’s what it means.
“It means there was someone else you really had to deal with.”
The system window did not refer to it.
The natives of the dimension involved did not know.
And there is a strong possibility that it was Purkas’ trick.
the real cause of the incident.
“This is the real key to this stage.”
