Ep. 265
As expected, Marcio Cartel’s deputy leader Kadun knew a lot.
The defense facilities inside the fortress, the number of pirates, their level of armament, and the specifications of the ships brought by the guests. Controlled by the parasite, he spewed out information that would be helpful in conquering the fortress.
‘I guess it’s worth doing more than I thought?’
The defense facilities to watch out for were no different from what I remembered, but there was a severe shortage of people who could utilize them.
Kesha Arma is a space fortress built by a cult. Facilities to repel enemies that invade the interior are designed to be easily used by the cult.
‘But the mainstay of the Marcio Cartel is human.’
There is not even a single member of the organization who is a cult member. Because of this, the fortress’s weapons cannot be used and are being neglected. It is said that the very large turrets mounted on the headquarters buildings are the only facilities that operate properly.
‘They say there are a lot of pirates, but they are all ragtag.’
Ordinary pirates cannot defeat us. The larger the number, the more food you can eat.
‘But...’
There was one thing that bothered me.
A cult guest staying on the 100th floor of the 2nd Command Center. He is an important customer invited by Marcio Kartel six months ago, and is said to be quite capable. It is said that Kadun, who did not retreat even after fighting the Mother of Heaven, was so strong that he lost his will to fight.
‘From what I heard, it seems like the Temple Guardians or the Eye of Revelation Priests.’
Probably not an ‘Eye of Revelation’ priest. Because they ride ‘special beasts’ that they tamed with great difficulty. Kadun said that instead of coming with animals, she brought only a few attendants.
However, it is difficult to consider him a member of the temple guardians. They are hunters who hunt evil monsters for the security of the empire. They are not people worthy of staying in a pirate lair for half a year.
‘You have to be careful.’
Although we don’t know who he is, he is definitely a powerful enemy.
With the mysterious cult deeply etched in my mind, I stood up.
I have already heard where the items that will be auctioned are located. Other than that, I took out all the useful information that Kadoon knew.
‘Now all that’s left is....’
I looked at Heavenly Mother.
If it were any other time, I would have caught it, but not like today. Kadun’s heart will be the sacrifice needed for her growth.
However, the heart cannot be taken out right away. This is because Wolff’s advancement to the level of deification takes time, similar to Aimorph’s growth. As the level of deification increases, you become very vulnerable to external attacks.
[Zuzuzuzu zuzuzu (Isn’t this in trouble here?)]
「Yes. Even when I was raising the level of apotheosis before, I couldn’t move for 2 hours.”
[Zuzuz zuzu zuzuzu zuzuzuzu (2 hours? Wasn’t it originally 30 minutes?)]
「It seemed different from the game.」
[Zuzuzzu zuzuzuzu Zuzu (I have to go back to the ship)]
It will be safe there even after a few hours. As soon as we arrived at Kesha Arma, we had guards controlled by parasites falsify the documents, so there was no need to worry about being searched.
‘The problem is the thieves.’
Since we arrived, we have been robbed a total of three times. At that time, it was good because the slaves who could be parasites came on their own, but now things are a little different.
‘We need someone to protect our heavenly mother.’
I can’t protect her because from now on I’m going to rob the smuggled creatures. PS-111, who is good at operating machines, must also come with me.
One of 26 and Aadhay must guard her on the ship.
At that time, Aadhai tapped my back.
「Ugly friend」「Does it hurt?」
[Zuzu zuzu zuzu zuzu (No. I’m trying to grow)]
「Grow?」「Like an adult?」
[Zu (yes)]
Then the guy thought for a while and sent out a thought wave again.
「I」「Ugly friend」「I will help you」
[Zuzu (you?)]
「Friend」「I」「Many times」「I helped you」「Favor」「I will repay you」 Unexpectedly,
Aadhai is in the role of protecting the Mother of Heaven. I volunteered. As the guy said, it seemed like it was intentional because the two of them had been hanging out together a lot.
‘It’ll be okay.’
In battles inside the ship, No. 26 has the advantage, but he is Gallagon. Gallagon possesses the power of Red Gallagon. The possibility of a single thief threatening him is close to zero.
“What’s going on? “He said he would help me.”
“Ugly friend.” “For helping me.” “To repay him.”
“If that’s the case, wouldn’t it be better to change your title first? Follow me. ‘Pretty friend’.」
「Really? Am I going to grow up like other babies?”
[Zuzuzu (Yes, probably)]
I couldn’t be sure, so I gave a lukewarm answer, but that alone seemed to make No. 26 feel better. Because it pulled out its tentacle and tapped my head.
“exciting! Let’s go quickly!」
[Zuzu (Okay)]
I activated my mimicry engine and walked towards my destination located around the military port.
Behind us, the abandoned city continued to burn.
–
“Haaam tsk. “It’s so boring.”
“Is there anything strange?”
“at all.”
Security room A inside the underground storage room.
In the security room connected to dozens of cameras, five pirates yawned.
“So I told you to take some medicine.”
“What if I get caught by Kadoon?”
“All the other kids are doing it too.”
“Those ‘other bastards’ will all die together, you idiot.”
The skinny pirate grunted at his colleague’s face and picked up the radio.
“This is the fucking security office. “Is there anything wrong anywhere else?”
「Security room B. No problem.”
“C security room. Up... stop the action. Are you removing the hem? Where can I sell medicine...”
“D security room. clear. Call records will be recorded, so refrain from doing so. “A little.”
“E security room. There is nothing wrong here. “Is everything going on outside?”
The cellar is divided into a total of five areas, and there is a security office in each middle. Security offices located in each zone are responsible for monitoring within the zone and shielding the zone when abnormalities occur. In addition, androids deployed in each area continuously patrol the interior, and the security office is also responsible for their management.
Among the five security offices, Security Office A oversees the surveillance posts located at the entrance to Area A and the underground storage room.
“There’s nothing particularly strange... huh?”
The skinny pirate, who was about to answer the radio with a bored expression, looked at the camera and stopped talking. The pirate next to him also tilted his head to look at the surveillance camera.
“Fog?”
“hey. “Call the surveillance post.”
“uh. This is security room A. Fog is observed on the camera. Please check.”
“This is the surveillance station. It’s crackling. It doesn’t seem particularly strange. Huh?” “Chijijik people are so supportive”
“Surveillance post? Respond. Surveillance post. “This is security room A.”
Another pirate tried to contact them by radio, but all that came back was an unpleasant noise. The pirates’ attention was focused on the screen filming the inside of the surveillance post.
A security guard at the guard post was seen tapping the communication device he was holding. The other guards stood all at once as if they had discovered something.
And suddenly the monitors connected to the entrance turned off all at once.
“what?”
“Hey, contact the other district right away.”
“This is security room A. “There was a problem with the entrance camera among the cameras in the jurisdiction.”
「Chijijijijijik」
“This is security room A. This place...why is this like this again?”
“uh?”
“It doesn’t work for me either.”
“what? “Everyone else, take out your radios.”
“hang on.”
“Hey hey.”
The four pirates took out their walkie-talkies and began checking the status of communication. At that time, the pirate, who was alone and staring at the monitor with a mesmerized face, shouted.
“Hey, everyone, look at that!”
“Now is the time...huh?”
The four looked at the monitor again and fell silent.
The monitors connected to the camera were turning off one by one in real time.
