Ep. 209
I swung my wing arms vigorously and immediately increased my altitude. The dark clouds that had split due to the fight between me and Ham Ort have suddenly returned to their original places.
In a place where there is snow, rain, and occasional lightning, you can see a star floating peacefully.
I flew quickly and reached next to Aadhai.
「Old Adult」
[Zuzuzu Zuzuzu (What happened?)]
「People」「Hunted」
[Zuzu (Kind people?)]
「Me」「White People」「Meeting」「Ham Ort」「Group」
Of that guy As I said, the Gallagons were flying this way and fighting. While the White Gallagon on the chased side was covered in blood, the 10 Green Gallagons chasing it looked relatively healthy.
It would not be easy for an ordinary White Gallagon to deal with 10 Gallagons, as it might be Ham Ort, who is exceptional among the Gallagons. If you leave it alone, it will be hunted to death by the Green Gallagons.
「An adult」「White people」「I have something to say」「I have something to say」
[Zuzuzuzu (something to say?)]
「Important」「Trust」「Please」
I looked at him wondering if he was trying to save his people, but he didn't seem like that. .
'It wouldn't be a bad idea to eat Green Gallagon right now.'
The symbol of hunting ended before the conversation with Adhai. There is a high possibility that the predation effect will not work, but it is not a bad thing since you can fill the number of apex in the evolution condition.
'There are a lot of them, but…'
I looked around. Other than the 10, there were no Gallagons following.
[Zuz, zuzu, zuzu (let's sort this out first)]
「Agree」
「Let's scold them!」
I spread my wings wide and glided in the direction where they were. Aadhai, who was flying next to me, hit me and flew away as fast as his mother.
In the blink of an eye, the one that approached the group of Green Gallagons moved quickly and began firing psychic breath.
'Amazing?'
In order for Gallagon to fire his psychic breath, he must go through a series of charging processes. That's why I stop before firing my breath.
This is also true in reality. Even Gallagon, who had outstanding skills like Ham Oort, flinched for a moment when firing his breath.
But Aadhai had no such drawbacks. The guy was using super acceleration and firing by briefly cutting off his psychic breath.
The enemies were perplexed by the unprecedented and unusual attack method. I tried to use my super acceleration ability to cling to Aadhai, but Aadhai was much faster.
While Aadhai was attracting attention, the bloodied White Gallagon also struck back at his enemies.
'He fights better than I thought, but…'
A Gallagon that has just grown and a White Gallagon that is severely injured cannot defeat as many as 10 enemies.
If the Green Gallagons use their numerical superiority to surround Aadhai, it will be difficult for them to take advantage of it. As if they had the same thoughts as me, they began to take up a position as if to protect him.
'I can't leave it like that.'
I can fly pretty fast too, although not as fast as Adhani or Ham Oort. I hid in the clouds and quietly approached the Gallagons.
The Green Gallagons were only focused on the enemy in front of them. I jumped forward, waiting for one of them to fly near me.
「?!」
Green Gallagon is startled when a being three or four times larger than himself suddenly appears from the black cloud. The erosion tentacles on my back instantly wrapped around its body.
"Up…"
He tried to emit a warning thought wave, but I was faster. I opened my long snout wide and bit down on its neck.
I went back into the clouds, carrying Gallagon's limp body with a broken neck.
–
Ragmad, a grass-colored male belonging to the great Od Grad group, was in a good mood.
He never had a chance to mate until his scales grew from water-colored to grass-green. This was because the great Od Grad strictly controlled males other than himself from obtaining companions.
The old black dragon is still so powerful that even pure-white adults are wary of it. With his grass-colored scales, he is absolutely no match for him.
Finally, one day, when he had given up and was just being quiet, an opportunity came to him.
Ham Ort, Ohd Grad's third companion and the second-highest-ranking member of the group, rebelled.
The pure white queen, who had great power despite her young age, was a female that Ragmad also admired. She rejected Od Grad's rule and created a new group.
At that time, Ragmad also considered leaving the group, but did not dare to take action because he was afraid of Od Grad's wrath.
And his prediction was correct. The compatriots who followed Ham Ort could not escape the black dragon's wrath. Most of them died, and the pure white leader was left to lay eggs until he died.
If he kills the surviving group of Ham Ort, Ragmad may be able to get the opportunity he had hoped for.
This was the opportunity to mate with the pure white queen he admired. His dream is getting closer to reality.
A small nuisance appeared in the middle and was annoying, but he wasn't worried.
The abnormally small pure white kin was very fast and strong, but that was all. They are much more numerous with grass-colored scales.
It will take some time, but the only ones who will survive here are the Od Grad group.
Thinking like that, Ragmad looked at his target. Two of his kind were fighting against his white kind.
Just when Ragmad was thinking that he was fighting well, he felt something strange.
This is because there were a total of three comrades who originally decided to fight against the white compatriot.
「Ragmad!」「Goal」「Siege」「Support!」
His compatriots called him to catch a small saboteur. Ragmad looked at his compatriots and realized that this was also strange.
There is not enough one here either.
「Question」「Kingdom」「Insufficient」
「Understanding」「Unable」
「Kingdom」「Ten」「Now」「Eight」
「?」
The compatriots who did not understand his words stopped in the air. Just then, lightning struck in the dark sky.
Streams of lightning spread across the sky through the clouds.
In that brief moment, Ragmad saw.
A huge shadow inside a dark cloud.
As soon as the lightning passed, the owner of the shadow jumped out. Many heads captured one of their kind. The compatriot was dragged into the black cloud without even making a sound.
The cloud that swallowed up one of its compatriots flowed away with the wind as if nothing had happened. No trace was left where the cloud passed.
Ragmad, who watched the scene from beginning to end, felt an emotion he had never felt in his life.
Emotions that he had not felt even when he saw Od Grad's anger up close flowed along his scales.
The eerie feeling I felt throughout my body was an overwhelming fear.
「Enemy!」「Enemy!」「New Enemy!」「Discovered!」
When Ragmad realized that, he screamed as if torn to pieces without even realizing it. His feelings were completely reflected in the thoughts he shot.
Sensing Ragmad's panic, his compatriots quickly went on alert. The little pure white intruder disappeared before I knew it. The target they were aiming for was also not visible.
Maybe "something" in the clouds ate it all, too.
That fearful and greedy being is now targeting them.
At that moment, a purple flash burst out from the clouds. It was the breath of a pure white disruptor. One of the grass-colored compatriots quickly retreated to avoid it.
「Danger!」「Warning!」
「Up…?」
At that time, thick darkness struck the compatriots who were trying to avoid. The compatriots who were attacked from behind were defeated without even a chance to resist. "Something" hid again in the dark clouds, flapping its wings that looked as dark as the night sky, or darkness.
「Black kin!」「Danger!」
「Oud Grad」「Necessary!」 「
Impossible!」
「Calm」「Everyone」「Access」「Necessary」
Ragmad gathered his panicked compatriots. If they gather in one place, even that hidden "something" won't be able to target them carelessly.
While I was thinking that, lightning struck again.
Unlike the white flash before, this time it was bright golden lightning.
「?」
The color of the lightning wasn't the only thing that was strange. Strangely enough, instead of scattering, the lightning that was supposed to split into small pieces came together and flew in a specific direction.
Directly towards the Ragmad group that was closing the distance from each other.
A snake of lightning as fast as light tore his kin to pieces.
Amid the rush of blood and shards of flesh, he saw what lay beyond the lightning.
The "something" sitting on the heavenly throne was the black king of death. The king's numerous heads were holding Ragmad's compatriots.
And the white messenger sent by the black king spewed purple flames at him.
–
'It was easier than expected.'
I was a little worried because there were 10, but it was easier than I thought. Perhaps because they were young and inexperienced, they quickly became scared. If White Gallagon, who would be in charge of command, had been among the enemies, he would not have been defeated so quickly.
'Probably one or two of them ran away and called their comrades.'
From then on, an endless hellish wheel battle awaits. Gallagons will continue to attack me until I die.
'I'm glad I didn't do that.'
After clearing out the group of Green Gallagons, we came back down to the ground.
「Is this the new Gallagon?」
[Zuzuzuz zuzuzu zuzuzuzu (body fragments fell on the forest)]
「You mean to collect it? Okay."
"I will help you too. "Middle baby."
「…Can we change the name?」
"This is not possible due to insufficient authority conditions."
While Heavenly Mother and PS-111 were in the forest, White Gallagon approached me.
「Nel Germa」「Black Brother」「Thanks」
The female White Gallagon, who introduced herself as Nel Germa, thanked me.
'Are you Ham Oort's subordinate?'
I glanced over at the wounded Gallagon. The guy whose whole body is covered in wounds is in a very weakened state. If I attack right away, I'll die right away.
'Let's ask about Aadhai first and then deal with it.'
I was about to move the monster's tentacles to ask a question, but Nel Germa fired a thought wave first.
「Daughter of the Meteor」「Ham Ort」「Message」「Yes」 「
Message?」「Me?」
「Od Grad」「Group」「Raid」「Kind」「Most」「Death」
「!」
「Young kin 」 "Not much" "Not much left" "The rest" "Death"
Nell Germa's words surprised Adhai and I. The guy with wide-open amethyst-like eyes immediately flapped his wings. He was enraged to hear that his young compatriots had died so cruelly.
「Od Grad」「Bad!」「Young compatriot」「Pity!」
However, in my case, my feelings were slightly different.
'That guy hit a player.'
It seems that Black Gallagon attacked their nest while Ham Ort left the group with Aadhai.
There was no leader on this side, but the leader on that side was Black Gallagon, who was more powerful than White and others, so it was obvious what would happen next. There was probably a massacre.
That's probably why Ham Ort rushed back while fighting me. It must have been his intention to join his compatriots and fight Black Gallagon, even if it was late.
'Looking at the situation, it seems like a failure.'
Anyway, if it attacked the nest and slaughtered the Gallagons, it would be a big loss to me. Because the number of genetic essences I can take will decrease.
'no. Even if the genetic essence is the same, the evolution conditions are the problem.'
In order to evolve into an adult, I have to kill Apex myself. The conditions for my evolution are not fulfilled even if I kill another creature first and eat what remains of the corpse.
I asked Nell Germa.
[Zuzzuzu zuzuzu zuzu (What happened to Ham Ort?)]
「I」「When I left」「Od Grad」「Ham Ort」「Fight」
In all likelihood, Ham Ort would be dead. Even if it is stronger than a regular White Gallagon, it is not strong enough to overcome the difference in color.
「More than that」「Something more important」「Daughter of the Meteor」
「?」
「Ham Ort」「Speaking」「Savior」「Condition」
「King of Heaven」「Already」「Eat」
「Next」「Condition」「White Brotherhood 」「Eating」
「Kingdom」「Eating?」
「Ham Ort」「Suicide」「Daughter of the Meteor」「Growth」「Sacrifice」「Want」 「Trust」
「Impossible!」「Impossible!」
Words of Nel Germa After hearing this, Adhai reacted in disbelief.
「Ham Ort」「I」「Abandonment!」「Sacrifice」「Lies!」 It
seemed unrealistic to him that his mother, who had abandoned him in the past, was now sacrificing her life for him.
Even if they were blood relatives, they wouldn't be able to trust someone who once abandoned them so easily. I also had a similar experience, so I could understand his feelings.
'Maybe even worse than me.'
On this harsh ice planet, leaving the nest without the ability to hunt means death. The group that abandoned Aadhai clearly wanted him dead.
「Fact」「Ham Ort」「Sacrifice」「Impossible」「Instead」「Nel Germa」「Sacrifice」 「Trust」「Impossible!」 「Time」「No」「
Od
Grad」「Remaining Young Kindred」「What to look for 」
When the guy shook his head, Nel Germa desperately tried to persuade her.
While I was watching the two, number 26 approached me. It pulled out a tentacle and stabbed me.
「Big baby.」
[Zuzuzu (What's wrong?)]
「Big flutter. Are you the little baby's mom?"
[Zuzuzu zuzuz zuzuzu zzuzuzu (Yes. It was a long time ago, but not now)]
"Once a mom, you'll always be a mom."
Honestly, under the current circumstances, I don't want to talk about such a worthless topic with No. 26. didn't So, I stayed still and this guy continued the wave.
「I said it when I was running away.」
[Zu (huh?)]
「Take care of the little baby.」
I tried to ignore it because it was nonsense, but something suddenly occurred to me.
When Ham Ort deceived me and retreated, he sent me a short wave. At the time, I was so distracted because I thought Aadhai was dangerous that I couldn't hear him properly.
"I said it would be good if I could live at least as long as a small baby."
[Zuzu (that)]
"Is it because the big flutter is the mother?"
I couldn't say anything to No. 26's words.
'…If you think about it that way, it makes sense.'
Why did Ham Oort hand over his important daughter so easily?
When he spoke to his brethren, he probably realized that his nest was under attack. Moreover, Sky Whale has already been taken away from me, so Aadhai's growth has come to a halt. So he left his daughter to me and went to protect the nest.
'It's not just that. 'I thought I wasn't enough on my own, so I took out insurance.'
He knew how strong I was, but he judged me to be weaker than the black dragon. So, while fighting in the nest, I told White Gallagon and sent him to Adhai.
'It's the same whether Aadhai wants to eat it or I kill Nel Germa and feed it to him.'
No matter what, if Aadhai becomes stronger, he will be able to survive the black dragon, so he must have taken his last gamble.
'under. 'You're clever.'
I don't think any enemy I've encountered in this world has ever been as smart as him. Including Megacorp's Noble Capital, Star Union's androids, and players.
'Is it motherhood?…'
It is ridiculous to apply human standards to Gallagon, but there is no more appropriate concept to explain this situation. A mother's wish for her daughter's peace and happiness.
Or perhaps Ham Ort wanted to atone for the daughter he abandoned in the past.
Perhaps because he understood the impact of No. 26, Adhai also lost his momentum. Confusing emotions leaked out of the guy's head.
'Tsk.'
It is meaningless to think about Ham Oort's intention in doing this. He's dead anyway, and we still have a strong enemy called Black Gallagon.
I forced out the thoughts that were prickling in my heart and called Nell Germa.
[Zuzuzuzu Zuzuzu Zuzuzu(Is Odd Grad that strong?)]
「Ood Grad」「Mysterious Power」「There is」
[Zuzuzuzu(Mysterious Power?)]
「Ood Grad」「Opponent」「Heart」「Reading」 "Thanks to you" "I'm not injured" "I'm not injured"
As far as I know, Black Gallagon doesn't have that ability. It's a flying, natural disaster-like creature, but it doesn't have things like mind-reading or invulnerable skin.
'no. just in case. There may be powers I don't know about.'
If an already powerful person possesses unknown powers, he cannot be said to be an easy enemy. He is a problem, but his group must also be considered. Because you will definitely mobilize your subordinates when fighting me.
'Then we need reinforcements here too.'
I don't have enough strength to fight right now. So, we have to fill in the missing parts somehow.
[Zuzuzu Zuzu Zuzu (I have a question)]
「Black kin」「Question」「Answer」
[Zuzuzu zuzuzu zuzuzu zuzuzu zuzu (Eat white kin. Are there any conditions other than that?) ]
「Probably」「Yes」
Nell Germa nods.
'Good.'
Now I need more and stronger allies.
It is more advantageous to use Nell Germa when fighting there than to kill it here. Anyway, it is said that Aadhai can eat any White Gallagon to grow.
If so, the answer is fixed.
'Just get someone else.'
A guy from Od Grad's group.
