028. The main character competes with quantity (2)

Even if you look around everywhere, it’s all chitin. The worker bug, which had removed all of its legs, wriggled and grew in size, and was soon reborn with vicious thorny tentacles and a hatchery.

– Hurry up! There is no time! What the hell is the first jellyfish captain doing? Time to trim the tentacles, hurry up and grow your colony!

-storm!

―Stop the stormy sound! work fast!

-storm! storm!

A very nasty spider with something like a head roamed all over the place and let out a strange sound that echoed in the head, and the equally nasty jellyfish floating in the air got busy as well.

– Hatchery, Thorn Tentacles. haste.

―Worker bug, hatchery.

The hatchery spits out the egg nest as if excreting it, and the egg nest sucks in the mucous membrane, and soon a number of spiders with claws that ‘Ji-Woo Han sometimes plays with like a pet dog because he is cute’ came out.

These terrible guys, who seem to be neither spiders nor crabs, reposition themselves when instructed by the jellyfish, remove their legs, and then transform into a building over and over again.

Everywhere is turning into a nest of spiders in an instant.

“Ahh… … .”

Garam Lee, the leader who hid his power, felt that he was getting more and more confused in this hellish space.

“… … spider… … scared… … .”

She was now completely sealed off from the outside by wearing the ‘Aerospace Agency outfit’ that Kang Jin-hyeok had purchased at the system store with very expensive points, but that did not prevent the visual fear of spiders.

A person who was on the brink of death due to a severe allergy is now standing in a colony of spiders, so of course there is no way he can remain sane.

“Heeek-!!!”

As he was so dazed, he saw the hideous legion queen approaching him and tilting his head.

―What are you doing? Companion of the Ruler, are you going to do nothing?

“Kyaaha ah -!!!”

A woman’s scream, as if from a horror movie, resonated throughout the colony.

“Garam, are you okay?”

“… … .”

Kang Jin-hyeok, who had closed his eyes and watched the ruler’s performance through the group consciousness, hurriedly approached Lee Gar-ram as soon as he heard the scream and asked, shaking Lee Gar-am’s shoulder. But she had already lost her soul and just stayed there in a daze.

“… … .”

Kang Jin-hyeok shook his head.

“It’s ruined.”

As far as she knew, this woman was the most powerful among the human players, excluding ‘a few returnees’.

Kang Jin-hyeok had never defeated Lee Ga-ram in Dalian. No, the difference in skills was so great that even a single brushing of the collar, let alone an effective hit, was far away.

The identity of this woman is such a terrifying player who can’t even see the scene of the fist flying and tearing the demon’s eardrums with a single fist thrown into the air.

However, in this situation, her fearsome skills seem to be of no use.

“Maximum, put this guy to sleep.”

The unscrewed archmage sighed, stopped building magic defenses around him, and came over to give the poor leader a restful sleep.

“… … Sleeping.”

As Lee Ga-ram fell asleep standing still, Kang Jin-hyeok hurriedly took out a large bed from his private space and laid her right on the seat.

While the ruler of the corps abandoned his incarnation and went around the generals of the demons, the leader enjoyed the good fortune of sleeping like that. Of course, while sweating profusely, as if having a nightmare about spiders.

“Guy Jiu, out of all the races, you caught a spider.”

The wizard who lost the screw smiled bitterly and started building the magic defense again.

“Jinhyuk, why?”

“… … .”

The wizard, who was absorbed in the work of engraving magic on the floor in the middle of the day, looked up when he saw a shadow formed around him. However, in front of him was not Kang Jin-hyuk, but a spider man with chitinous, shiny scalp exposed.

―You are a friend with many different abilities.

“… … Who are you?”

-It’s called Jang Tae-shik.

The moment Choi Kang-han came up with the idea, ‘Is this the incredibly powerful object that infected humans?’, the spider man asked him with a very serious and solemn expression.

―By any chance, do you have the power to make the hair roots of your human days regrow?

“… … .”

―If you have such an authority, could you please release my wish? I’ve been without a head for a long time since childhood. Recently, I got hair roots for the first time while reconstructing my body through a round bone metamorphosis. But at most, the hair roots that I recreated disappeared overnight… … This han is deeper than I thought.

“… … Hey, old man?”

– Oh, don’t get me wrong. This is absolutely not to resent the emperor. I am always grateful to him… … Anyway, talented young fellow with a variety of skills. Is there any way to revive it?

Choi Kang-han laughed bitterly.

“… … Elder, if you had such power.”

When Choi Kang-han removed the [Appearance Change Magic] placed on his head, the severe M-shaped hair loss reached its peak, revealing a bare scalp with only the hair around the ears and the back of the head.

The impression of the wizard, who had a neat and intelligent appearance that women passing by looked back at, quickly began to look like a man in his 50s when his abundant hair disappeared.

“… … .”

—… … I made a bad request of you. I’m sorry.

The teacher, Jang Tae-sik, turned his back lonely.

[ruler! Fighting to see who is stronger between you and me… … !]

“Fuck me, lightning.”

Another group of scapegoats.

The head of the Demon Tribe, trapped in the rain of lightning, collapsed with a desperate scream.

[Liberation of demons… … .]

“Shut up, thunderbolt.”

This guy also became a suitable scapegoat.

The feast of golden lightning pouring down from the sky like a storm, it sent another demon chief and his personal guard to heaven.

Looking at it like this, I felt like I suddenly became incredibly strong. The power of their heads is at least at a level that would appear in a ‘raid in which all players participate’, but I’m lightly KO’ing them with a technique inspired by the game.

The reason why such strong guys fall in one blow is simple. This is a technique that seems to have a very strong physical impact on the surface, but in fact it is a kind of ‘mental destruction technique’ that crushes the opponent’s mind with the overwhelming mental power of the hive mind.

In a word, if he is not mentally stronger than me, he will cleanly shake off even his soul in this one shot.

After going through a shedding process, my body has grown rapidly from a small shopping mall to a large building, and my mental strength has reached a state of transcendence that easily surpasses the ghost-catching Marines.

No matter how strong the individual powers of the heads of the demons are, they were born with huge brains from the beginning, so their mental strength cannot withstand the mind-destroying attack of the Hive Mind, the strongest level in the universe.

Of course, my incarnation couldn’t withstand the load and collapsed.

In fact, not only the incarnation, but also the main body of the Hive Mind is increasingly overloaded due to excessive use of mental power, and the mind is gradually becoming hazy as if drunk.

It was also an embarrassing technique that I suffered little by little while using it.

Despite using the medium of lightning as an incarnation rather than the main body, fatigue is building up to a worrying level.

The use of the body’s lightning bolt is a skill that must be saved until the end, as it is unconditionally a ‘special move’.

【There are now 3 left.】

Moreover, the incarnation he had made was the floor. I am urgently cultivating additional incarnations, but making them takes quite a long time.

Unlike spiders, which have a simple structure, the human body is very complex, so there are many cases in which mutants are born while making incarnations.

But it didn’t matter anymore.

For half a day, I single-handedly held back the enemy corps, picking out only the bosses that approached the colony, giving the colony some decent time to grow.

【Arachne, how is the colony going?】

―Lord, the nest that holds 50 million children will soon wake up.

[The operation was successful. Increase the hatchery in earnest.]

The first ride is 50 million. At this level, you should be able to defend the colony with your own power, even if it’s not an attack.

Thankfully, the number of enemy bosses appearing in Mother Castle is not as high as expected. Among them, more than half of them were removed, even to the point of scrapping the incarnations I had painstakingly created.

Dealing with the Demons without a leader wasn’t that much of a burden. They’re definitely a bit stronger than the ones you usually deal with, but anyway, most of their firepower comes from the black flame boss.

Now, it will be a full-scale battle for quantity.

―Master, I am the ‘Chimera’, the representative of the remaining legion queens. I’m dragging the legionnaires to your side.

【Legion Queen Chimera, how many legions are under you?】

-3 billion.

Coincidentally, the power remaining in the mother castle also started to join. As I cut off the boss and the wires were shaken, the Queens of the Mother’s Legion also gained time to gather power.

Besides, these guys hate the idea of ‘coalition’ as a matter of my educational policy, but at this point, it seems that the corps queen with a heroic record has finally begun to control the remaining corps.

【Chimera, follow Arachne’s instructions from now on. She is number 2 in the ranks of the corps.]

―I see, my lord.

Once it was less than an hour. Now, even if the boss of the demons appears, the corps will no longer be defeated individually and will not be taken lightly.

It is said that if she succeeded in rallying all the remaining legions in her motherland, the queen named ‘Chimera’ has grown to the level of Zaira. At this rate, I will join forces with Arachne to defend the motherhood to some extent.

―The Legion has arrived.

Soon, a corps appeared that painted the horizon black. Now is the time to start a full-fledged counterattack.

First of all, we will create a large-scale expeditionary force by reducing all the demons and flowers that have set foot in motherhood to nutrients. After that, I’ll pour legions like a shower on their proud [Demon King] just like they did.

I looked up at the sky.

After returning to motherhood, there was a very dirty look that got on my nerves.

The huge purple moon floating in the sky, the gaze of the person looking at me from there contains the feelings of hatred and displeasure in the sticky life.

… … 잠시만, 이 개새끼 보소.

Where are you ignoring portrait rights and taking voyeur pictures?

【Demon King, I’m a bastard of my mother!】

【Did your mother teach you that?】

When my cry for the demonic moon ended, the focus of that sticky gaze suddenly began to tremble.

【why? What are you looking at like that? do you pick? Aww. Are you this baby, is it a male taste? Why are you looking at me and giving me such a sticky, fluttering look? Does your mother know about your sexual orientation?]

Say nothing.

It was really a feast of random words that jumped out of my brain.

【What? If you have any complaints, don’t stay in the [Demon Castle] and crawl out here while spying. Cheol?】

Ah, the stress was relieved by openly cursing. It’s really cool inside.

As expected, the swear words learned in the game ‘Legend’ are really sticky. It’s like a passive that activates automatically from your mouth or fingers without going through your brain, so I think it’s good that I played the game.

【A demon cub without a mother?】

The swearing really came out non-stop.

How much trouble did I have to go through because of that demon king?

Doesn’t it become a super cow with superpowers out of nowhere, forcibly eating fodder and milking it, or partying with crazy people while taking antidepressants?

This time, they even went through the absurdity of being born as an alien race.

This is all because of that dog.

Of course, I never thought that the demon king would get really pissed off at such a vulgar provocation and crawl out of the [Demon King Castle].

【Demon King, are you serious?】

It was then.

[…] … You bastard, did you dare insult my mother just now?]

… … huh?
