Chapter 252: 251
Ep. 251
–
Captain Baltajay, who was part of the Red Tail Fleet of the 8th Fleet of the 12th Fleet and was sent to the temporary reconnaissance team, is now very excited.
Are you nervous about an upcoming fight? Or because it is a large-scale operation involving four elite fleets?
Not all. He is a veteran soldier who has survived several battles. I'm not a kid who gets excited about things like that.
The reason he was so excited was because the great leader was participating in this battle.
Until now, it was rare for the highest dignity of the Star Union to directly enter the battlefield. Even cyborgs superior to Baltajay rarely carried out operations with the Great Leader.
But today he had the honor of walking the battlefield with that great leader.
'Today is truly the best day.'
"Planet siege in progress."
"Okay. First, activate the warp finder and activate the star system surveillance radar. "If anything unusual occurs, report it immediately."
｢Confirmation.｣
Aside from the pounding in his heart, his reason is operating calmly. Since this is a battle in which the Great Leader participates directly, it must never fail.
He began the scout's work in synchronization with the ship's computer.
While he was reading the data transmitted through the cable and issuing commands, something strange caught his eye.
Two previously invisible red marks appeared on the 3D star system map.
'what?'
I thought I had seen it wrong, but no. One was motionless, away from the targeted planet.
And the other one….
"Enemy attack! It's an enemy attack! "All scouts ready for battle!"
"check. "Order delivered."
Red light rapidly approaching the ship about to begin the siege.
Soon it began to split into many.

｢Worry｣｢Unnecessary｣｢Compatriots｣｢Strong｣
I shot a wave of thought that I was proud of Aadhai who was by my side. Then, the other Gallagons following behind also expressed their thoughts in agreement.
[Zuzuzu Zuzu (Aiming only for the target)]
｢Yes｣
｢Ham Ort｣｢Remember｣
Currently, I am flying through outer space with 15 Gallagons.
The members are the same as when they fought Pyrrha Eleven. Ardhai Black Gallagon Ham Ort, who has gained the power of Red Gallagon, and 13 White Gallagons are following me.
And there are enemy ships at the end of the direction my snout is pointing.
33 large ships and numerous patrol ships guarding the area. It is so large that it can be called a regular fleet rather than a reconnaissance unit.
The enemy discovered us and quickly formed a battle camp.
Lights twinkle among the stars embedded like grains on a black background. The torpedoes and drones they launched are flying towards us.
The Gallagons, including Adhai, moved behind me without me saying anything. I can't hide the 15 Gallagons with my newly transformed body, but that's only true when I'm in my normal state.
My body, moving in the weightless space, is incomparably bigger than usual.
'Bone Beast', a body-related fusion trait obtained after hunting Ice Horrors in the past. This fusion trait has the effect of turning you into a giant monster for 60 minutes.
When I fought Jason before, thanks to using the Bone Beast and the special state of 'Organic Evolution' called 'King of Monsters' together, my body grew to nearly 300m tall.
Of course, my body is not that big now. This is because the cooldown of the organic evolution trait has not ended, so it cannot be used yet.
'Still, it's 80m long, so it's big enough.'
Moreover, he didn't have wings during the Jason fight, but not now. The wingspan alone is well over 100m, so the width is greater than the length.
The black shell was double-covered with white shells added due to the bone beast transformation. To others, it might look like I'm wearing the bones of a large monster like Ice Horror.
'Then let's get started.'
I spread my huge wings to protect the Gallagons and pointed my snout at the flying torpedoes and drones.
Even though there is no wind at all, the tentacles of the monster around my neck are shaking gently. The tentacles are moved not by wind but by psychic powers flowing from the body.
And a more powerful psychic breath than ever poured down on the subjects.
Every time the purple line moved, a feast of fireworks unfolded. Star Union's torpedoes were helpless in front of the bone beast and the flames of supernatural power amplified by the 'Dragon Heart'.
At least the APD, an anti-superpower weapon, held out, but it was unable to avoid the torpedoes exploding at close range. Drones caught in the explosion exploded or malfunctioned and were thrown into outer space.
Nullifying the first attack with one strike, I rushed towards the enemy ships. The special wavelengths flowing from the wing membrane helped it move very nimbly even in space.
Likewise, the Gallagons also followed me, using psychic power as a propellant.
They then tried to pour down fire, but I was already close to the scattered enemy ships.
The patrol ships around the destroyer poured ultra-vibrating torpedoes at me, but it was no use. This is because even if vibration penetrates inside, the shells built up in the middle block it.
I climbed on top of one of the patrol ships, trusting in its defense capabilities. There was probably chaos inside. Because a monster bigger than the ship they are on is holding the ship with its hands.
I picked up the corvette and threw it at another corvette that was firing torpedoes. The ship shook violently and flew away, colliding with another ship.
Death flashes flashed from the crashing ships. The X10-class destroyer, which was protected by a patrol ship, saw this and quickly tried to retreat.
'Where are you going?'
I pulled out the erosion tentacle from the spot. Under the Bone Beast effect, erosion tentacles that grew to match the wings and body grabbed the back of the destroyer.
The destroyer's gun barrel, which is about 5 times longer than mine, comes out and tries to target the erosion tentacle. I pulled out the tentacle and pressed myself against the destroyer.
'Is this the bridge?'
I raised my head to the slight protrusion at the top of my stomach. Surrounded by an alloy exterior wall, dozens of small cameras are taking pictures of my snout.
I opened my mouth wide in front of him. A green wave rose from inside the throat and poured onto the outer wall of the destroyer.
All Star Union ships are armed with overwhelming heavy armor, but this is meaningless in the face of enormous amounts of acid. This is because as the body grows, the amount of acidic fungi it releases also increases.
In the blink of an eye, the outer wall melted and the half-destroyed situation room of the bridge came into view. The cyborgs in the situation room are upset. It is unclear whether it was because they were surprised to see me or because they were exposed to outer space.
I shot the enhanced psychic breath from above to quickly end his suffering.
Large bubbles measuring just over 10 meters in diameter seeped into the ship. Cyborgs struggling to survive somehow became prey to the greedy bubbles.
Seeing cyborgs melting while screaming silently reminds me of a classic American science fiction creature movie. It was about a village being devastated by a pink slime monster that flew in from outer space, and it was very similar to what happened on a destroyer.
'Then this…'
After destroying the situation room and disabling the destroyer's control, I tightened my tentacles and grabbed the destroyer. And then he pushed hard towards the other enemies.
Destroyers coming to support their comrades collided with ships flying towards them. In the process, the psychic breath that entered the boat I threw moved to another boat in search of new food. The destroyers that collided with their fellow ships were unable to attack properly due to the psychic breath that invaded their interior.
Next, I finished it off by shooting a regular psychic breath at the struggling guys.
'good. 'Let's do it now.'
One of the destroyers that fell prey to the psychic breath contained a warp finder.
PS-111 said that five warpfinders were deployed on three XAX Class 5 fast battleships and two destroyers.
I just broke one, so now there are four left.
I checked how the other guys were fighting while fighting the corvettes that were attacking me as if they were going to bite me.
In the distance, a cluster of red, black and white stars is swimming over the sea of stars.
The red star that decorates the peak of the meteor shower rushes toward the patrol ships. The patrol ships that penetrated the star exploded one after another, decorating the black drawing paper.
Small patrol ships fired torpedoes and drones to catch it, but it was useless because the opponent was too fast. As if to prove that the expression 'meteor' was not in vain, the red star moved at high speed and trampled the patrol ships.
The destroyer behind it moves its gun barrel to eliminate the vicious red star, but it is a trap. A black malevolent star with scales as dark as the universe attacks the destroyer.
Like a ferocious dog biting the neck of its prey and suffocating it, the Black Star snuggled up close to the destroyer and let out purple breath.
No matter how strong the outer wall of the destroyer is, it is impossible to survive after being hit by the dragon's breath from such a close range. The elongated destroyer was split in two.
Cyborgs and androids poured out of it. They floundered in the bottomless infinite space and soon stopped moving.
The other ships spread out and tried to surround the two dragons, but the pure white vassals who serve the daughter of the great meteor would not tolerate this. 13 white dragons kept them in check by emitting psychic breath.
'You're fighting well.'
The destroyer that Ham Oort just destroyed is the ship carrying the warp finder. This is the second one.
'There are three left….'
At that time, a torpedo so large that it could not be compared to the torpedoes fired by other ships flew towards me.
I wrapped my erosion tentacles around the wreckage of a destroyer floating nearby and threw it at the incoming torpedoes. It was a smart torpedo equipped with AI, but you wouldn't have expected that a ship made by Star Union would use it as a shield. A powerful explosion shook the empty black space.
'It just so happened.'
A series of enemies are visible beyond the explosion. A ship larger than a destroyer is aiming for me, escorted by a patrol ship.
The ship that attacked me was an XAX class 5 battleship carrying one of the warp finders.
As if they had noticed my gaze, they finished reloading and fired torpedoes at me again.
A torpedo of a size that makes you feel cold just by looking at it approaches at high speed. Even if it were me, if I got hit by that, the injuries would be significant.
'If only I hadn't used the bone beast.'
I hit the torpedo hard with the carapace of my head just before it collided with the torpedo. A huge shock and flames enveloped my body.
–
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Dead! "I killed that crazy monster!"
Baltajay, who was watching the explosion through the ship's camera mounted on the outer wall of the battleship, cheered.
I was shocked to see the 'Operation Target' throwing the destroyer at his colleagues. Even he, a veteran soldier, had never seen a monster do such a ridiculous thing.
In particular, when the guy who blocked the first shot turned his gaze in this direction, he felt cold as well.
But it doesn't matter now. He was killed by a torpedo fired from the battleship's main gun.
"The remaining ships must maintain warp finders and even those monsters…"
"Warning. Confirm survival of 'Operation Goal.'
"What?"
Baltajay's eyes widened at the urgent report from the ship's computer. Video information recorded in real time through a camera was transmitted to his eyes through a cable.
'No way?!'
Elongated arms emerge from the black flames. Fire and smoke billowed loudly every time the membranes under the arms shook.
Behind it, the head of a creature with an elongated snout and large horns is vaguely visible. Even though it had been hit directly by a torpedo, it appeared to be fine except for a slight damage to its head.
Eyes as cloudy as a dead fish. The devil's eyes were staring at Baltajay.
"Everyone reload the main guns right now! "Kill him!"
"Confirmation."
As he shouted, the 'Operation Target' moved again. The black wings that absorbed all the light flapped, and the monster's appearance rapidly grew in size. It was approaching so quickly that it seemed as if it had expanded significantly.
The patrol ships and destroyers escorting Valtejay moved forward to buy time.
Unfortunately, this was a mistake. Six tentacles protruded from its back and grabbed the approaching patrol ships. He swung his ship like a blunt weapon and struck the approaching patrol ships.
The destroyers tried to keep their distance and fire at him, but it was meaningless to him. Purple heat rays shot out from the bundle of tentacles around its neck and destroyed the destroyers.
'We have to retreat…!'
The order Baltajay received was to wait until the main force arrived. It still took more time for the main force to arrive.
"Fire the main guns and then go at full speed…"
The moment he was about to give the command, the ship shook violently. It was a huge shock, similar to what you would feel when hit by the main gun of another battleship.
As he stepped out in front of the chair, he caught sight of the guy's head. The guy's face was close to the ship's camera, and his mouth was wide open.
"Hee hee!"
The overwhelming fear did not last long.
Because the purple flames melted the entire bridge and the frail cyborg's body.
