Ep. In the 242

game, Star Union's machine committee has an important feature.

Unlike examples such as the Prophet's Association or the Imperial Council of the Megacorp's 7 Family Cult Empire, the Machine Committee is composed only of NPCs.

In other words, the Mechanical Committee appears only as an enemy or an aide.

If you play as a cyborg of Star Union's rival, Megacorp Star Union, you will fight against the Machine Committee. The former is to achieve the final ending goal of 'unification' like Aimov's ascension, and the latter is because one must pass the Mechanical Council's test to become the Supreme Leader, the supreme leader.

While playing as Amorph, I fought against a Star Union Grand Leader player and then against the Machine Committee.

The Machine Committee boasts a difficult level of difficulty as they are NPCs that appear as enemies in the latter half of the game.

First of all, each member of the Mechanical Committee has one elite fleet under their command. Since players mobilize their own fleets during battle, challenging players also need forces equivalent to that of a fleet.

Additionally, all of the committee members are androids and can modify their bodies. The modification style varies from member to member, and body parts are frequently changed depending on the opponent's strategy during battle.

But none of them were as modified as the Pyrrha Eleven in front of me.

Heavy alloy hoses, like the body of an ice horror, were spread out in all directions, and in the center was the upper body and face of a giant made of biological tissue and metal.

The shape of the face had an androgynous feel, and the eyes, which were larger than those of Aadhai or the Mother of Heaven, had been replaced by camera lenses. The skin wriggled as if it were alive every time it moved.

'That can't be called an android anymore.'

Unlike cyborgs, androids are complete machines, but they still tend to maintain a humanoid appearance. If members of the Machine Committee need to break away from their humanoid form, they will fight by transplanting their brains into combat-type machines, rather than modifying them to that extent.

Rather, it was closer to PS-111. A hybrid between machine and organism.

'Of course, that side is completely dominated by machines.'

Moreover, its appearance was so poor that it could not be compared to PS-111. The ugly monster hit me with a hose.

Its hose was as thick and long as the Ice Horror's body. The length of the hose alone was about 1.5 times the length of my body.

I raised my wing arms and fighting arms to block his hose. Not only did they look similar, but their weight and defense were also at the level of an ice horror.

While I blocked his blow, the kids behind me moved all at once. In that state, I activated 'Hand of Predatory Leech'.

'huh?'

Unexpectedly, the enemy's biological energy was not absorbed. I bit down on the hose I was holding to check. The hard metal skin broke and foul-tasting flesh oozed out from inside.

'indeed.'

The alloy hose was covered with alloy scales on the surface and consisted of biological tissue on the inside. Perhaps because it is not a living thing, it could not be absorbed by the hands of a predatory leech by just grabbing the surface.

Moreover, the flesh was poisonous. Judging by the thrilling sensation in the mouth, the type appeared to be a neurotoxin. He didn't swing the hose at me without thinking.

'Are you trying to paralyze me? 'You're not killing me?'

At that time, number 26, who was on top of me, shouted.

"Big baby! Be careful!"

At the same time, another hose flew to the side and hit me.

You can't say I'm small, but his hose is much bigger than mine. My body, hit by its attack, was pushed backwards without me realizing it.

'His strength is similar to mine, but…'

He's quite a cunning opponent. I sent a wave to the kids as I blocked the oncoming attack with my fighting arms.

[Zuz, zuzuzu, zuzuzu, zuzu zuzu (Be careful of that guy's flesh. It's poisonous)]

I'm not affected by the poison, so it doesn't matter, but the kids aren't.

The Mother of Heaven, who was swinging her front paws to avoid the flying hose, immediately backed away upon hearing my words.

Aadhai flew in from behind and snatched up the Sky Mother who had retreated.

While Adhaya performed acrobatics to avoid the hoses sticking out of the canyon walls, the Mother of Heaven returned in the form of a griffon beast.

She climbed onto Aadhai's back with nimble movements. Then, Adhai took out a long golden javelin from the backpack tied around his waist.

A hose flew in to stamp and press Aadhai. The moment he was about to grab the three extra-large claws, the priest's golden spear held by the Heavenly Mother radiated light.

The Mother of Heaven, who cut off all of her claws with a single blow. As if Aadhai had expected this to happen, he flew quickly without slowing down at all.

Hoss, who had lost his claws, tried to catch up with him. However, Hoss was unable to achieve his goal due to a dark blue energy bullet flying from somewhere.

PS-111, which was attached to the wall and fired suppressing fire, quickly closed its mouth and moved away. The ice wall cracked and Hoss hidden inside moved to attack the enemy.

'Where.'

The monster's tentacles attached to the neck and back of the head responded to my wishes and prepared a psychic breath. The energy was charged at high speed, and in an instant, the entire tentacle bundle turned purple.

Purple flames rose from my head and violent psychic heat rays were fired forward. The hose that was trying to crush PS-111 was hit by a heat ray and a hole was created.

At that time, I felt large objects moving behind me. Pyrrha Eleven swung two hoses to hit me in the back while I was distracted by something else.

But if there's one thing he doesn't know, it's that I'm not losing my mind. Because I trust the little friend above my head.

Two hoses, which were overwhelmingly larger than me, stopped in midair as if they had hit an invisible wall. Number 26, a being much smaller in size but not weak in power itself, demonstrated its power.

The hoses tried to escape, but it was not easy to escape the web of psychic power that stretched out into dozens and hundreds of pieces. I turned my head and destroyed the two hoses with my psychic breath.

'No major problems yet…'

｢Pyrrha Eleven fired the plasma main cannon.｣

｢I lost my lower body.｣

｢Pyrrha Eleven absorbed my fallen lower body.｣

｢Pyrrha Eleven imitated some of my characteristics. ｣

｢Pyrrha Eleven's attack was incompletely strengthened.｣

｢I'm dead.｣

'Oh no!'

As I saw the images flowing quickly before my eyes, I quickly tightened my grip on my tail. My body bounced sideways like a spring. Almost at the same time, a huge amount of plasma energy was released from Pyrrha Eleven's mouth.

An incredibly thick ray of heat was fired, like a beam fired from a ship's main gun, and burned the place where I was. The ice floor melted quickly as if the sun had fallen.

The dry canyon was filled with steam. Pyrrha Eleven's voice was heard from behind the white fog-like vapor.

"Pira Eleven. Edited. Special Objective A's judgment is changed from 'high' to 'very high'."

'Did you remove the ship's main gun and attach it?'

It fired the heat ray again. But I wasn't just playing around either. Psychic breath spurted out from the tips of my tentacles in response to the flying green heat ray.

Thanks to the 'Heart of the Dragon', I can bring out tremendous firepower as far as psychic power is concerned. The thickness of the psychic breath fired at maximum power was almost equal to the heat ray fired by the guy.

The psychic breath I shot, inheriting the power of the plasma heat ray dragon emitted by the mechanical monster, collided in the air.

Then a huge shock wave hit the canyon. As the canyon shook violently, large ice fragments measuring more than 10 meters fell from above. The ice floor evaporated from the heat.

'Strong. But…'

Although its heat rays are incredibly powerful, they are nowhere near my firepower.

The green plasma heat rays were gradually pushed back. In just a moment, his face will disappear as a result of the reaction of his attack and my heat rays.

But what happened next was different from what I expected.

Pyrrha Eleven's face began to split into numerous particles.

'what?'

The plasma heat ray stopped and my psychic breath flew towards its head. Because its head had already been split and scattered before that, the heat ray I shot only burned a small part of it.

'Was it a drone?'

Thousands, if not tens of thousands, of drones smaller than ordinary drones were gathered together to form the guy's head. When I first saw it, I felt like its face was constantly twitching, but that was actually because the drones were gathered together.

The scattered biological drones gathered in places where the psychic breath did not reach, forming a giant face again. And the hoses that kept wiggling on the floor moved on their own as if attracted by a magnet and were connected under the face.

And then the guy spewed out plasma heat rays again. I also responded to his attack with psychic breath.

A power struggle with clear superiority and inferiority began again, but I was not happy.

'…The loophole was properly punctured.'

I thought they were one entity because they clearly had the same biological signals, but my prediction was wrong.

The true identity of Pyrrha Eleven is a drone, or rather, a colony of very small, improved biological weapons. Unlike hoses, which have flesh inside a metal shell, these drones have mechanical parts inside biological tissue made of organic matter.

The plasma heat ray also doesn't have a main gun in its mouth. That's a trick, and in reality, biological drones that can fire plasma fire heat rays at the same angle and timing.

'Thanks to you, I was properly fooled.'

As I fired my breath, I quickly looked around with the accessory under my chin.

'We need to cut off the energy supply first.'

My eyes fell on the hose connected to the bottom of the drone's head. Some of the hoses are stuck in the canyon walls and ground. It is unclear whether it was hidden for a surprise attack or to absorb energy.

'No matter what happens, he would have prepared for it.'

He's a cunning guy, so he must have prepared a trap.

'So should I get rid of the drone?'

Enhanced psychic breath can be useful when dealing with a colony of biological weapons. If you succeed in hitting even one drone, it will automatically spread to surrounding organic matter.

'The question is how efficient it is.'

Those countless biological drones are his terminals. Even if you succeed in hitting the drone, he will react quickly.

They might sacrifice a few drones to minimize the damage, or send the drones that were hit with psychic breath to where me and the kids are.

'To stop it, we have to sweep it away once and for all.'

There are traps prepared when entering this canyon.

At that moment, the guy's head fell apart. My breath hit the canyon, sending ice crashing down on our heads. Because of our fight, the solidly frozen floor also melted and became soggy.

I scattered waves as his head came together.

[Zuzu zuzuzu zuzu (Find its energy source)]

I left an important mission to them and ran down the road I came in.

"Pira Eleven. Tracking started. Eliminate Special Objective A, which is the highest risk factor. "We deal with other targets using the terminal."

Pyrrha Eleven followed me from behind, with a hose connected to her head. Every time it moved, countless hoses tore through the ground.

Behind him, other hoses were seen interfering with the kids. If you only look at the specs, these hoses are close to ice horror. If I'm even a little late, the kids will be in danger too.

'If this succeeds, he will suffer a fatal blow.'

At that moment, a plasma heat ray flew from behind. The heat rays he shot passed over my back armor as I crawled.

[Zuzuzu (Are you okay?)]

"Yes."

As part of the carapace was broken, I felt my body's resistance to plasma energy building up again. Due to the 'mimetic scale' trait, my body was developing new resistance to energy.

If it were any other time, I would have fought while getting hit, but it was difficult to choose that tactic now.

'The future seen from the perspective of a predator. It absorbed my flesh.'

Judging by the passing images, it swallowed my torn lower body and imitated its features. The plasma heat rays of the biological drones that made up the creature became stronger, and the hoses changed into a shape similar to my claws.

Just like PS-111 absorbs substances and transforms its body. The problem is that its transformation is much faster.

So I had no choice but to keep twisting my body to avoid its attacks.

As I was running like that, I saw a black colored floor and wall in the distance. It was a nest I had laid down before entering the canyon. Due to the steam and heat generated inside, the nest had expanded beyond my expectations.

"Pira Eleven. question. Did they just believe that and lure them in? Analysis of synthetic substances with toxic ingredients secreted by Special Target A has already been completed. "I have secured perfect tolerance."

Until recently, he was the one who showed meticulousness in moving his mouth every time he spoke, but now that his secret has been revealed, he no longer behaves like that.

Pyrrha Eleven casually destroyed the nest I had built with a hose.

'Of course not.'

In the first place, the nest was just a means to draw the picture I wanted. The real weapon is different.

I linked up with the nest and gave a command to the nest.

'Explode.'

The black slime on the canyon wall gushed like a fountain and fell on the guy's head. Slime splattered everywhere, covering his face and hose.

Even though black slime was pouring from above, he ignored it. A mouth made of bio-drones opens and green light starts to emerge from inside.

I disconnected from the nest just before its attack was launched and immediately took out my next weapon.

Green and purple and all sorts of strange colors invaded my bundle of tentacles.

Was he wary of an unidentified energy flowing out of my body? It stopped firing heat rays and the biological drones that made up the face moved to disperse.

He tried to run away, but there's no problem.

I fired a psychic breath with the 'color of the abyss' applied.

My target wasn't his head.

The sphere of chaos, which was flying in a direction that was far from the guy's head, exploded after hitting black slime flowing like a fountain on the canyon wall above the guy's head. As soon as I saw the explosion, I spread my wings wide and launched myself backwards.

[Zuzuzu Zuzuzu (avoid this too)]

Abyssal rain fell on Pyrrha Eleven's head.
