I Became an Evolving Space Monster

The inside of the Surveillance Office, one of the essences of cult technology, was a complete mess.

Because the power system was damaged, the entire structure was bathed in the red light of emergency lights. The interior floor was littered with the remains of broken exterior walls.

These were all works created by me and Vortex One.

The moment I reached out to grab the airship Alshas was on, the ‘Ring of Agony’ moved. Numerous arms on the surface of the ring grabbed me and pulled me back.

Not only was he big, but his strength was also terrifying. My body was kicked out of the surveillance office against my will.

I took out the erosion tentacles and grabbed hold of the outer wall of the surveillance office, while activating the ‘variable biological weapon’.

The deformed part is the head. The central head carapace mutates into a shape similar to that of the Apex creature ‘Ice Horror’.

I changed my head and applied more force to the tentacles holding the outer wall. Like an arrow leaving a bowstring, my body was shot into the structure.

The intense shock that follows. My head hit the ring of agony.

All Vortex Ones boast incredible durability as their bodies are composed of the power of the abyss and organic matter. However, that does not mean that it is an immortal being that can never be damaged.

The numerous arms attached to the surface of the ring were crushed by my carapace. Both heads bit the black rings as hard as they could.

In that state, I planted both my legs into the floor of the surveillance office and pushed the guy with all my strength.

The ring-shaped body is pushed in one direction due to my force. In the process, the control tower and ships were crushed and exploded.

The erosion tentacles on its back picked up ship debris floating in the air. Then he swung it like a club and hit the devil. Every time the enemy collided with the debris carried by the tentacles, a loud explosion made the structure vibrate.

‘It’s time for a counterattack.’

Right now its arms are tearing at my carapace, but you’ll soon realize that’s not having much effect.

｢-｣

At that moment, the arms of the guys who were playing separately stopped at the same time. Each pair of arms gathered together and clapped their hands in my direction.

Immediately, an enormous pressure came upon me.

｢Pain reduction activated!｣

Not only the tentacles but also the neck and torso were twisted wildly by an invisible force. My body turned into a squeezed dishcloth.

The structure surrounding me also began to crumble and make friction noises. The anchored ships were twisted like taffy sticks, and various facilities, including the control tower, were in the shape of compressed cans.

‘As expected, it’s strong!’

The ability to use the Ring of Anguish varies depending on the posture of the arms. The clapping posture is the posture used when using the ability to manipulate gravity.

Of course, I got hit in the game too. It’s an incredible amount of pressure to actually experience something that you only saw in numbers. Even after being hit by the battleship’s main gun, the intact bone armor cracked and shattered in an instant.

Even though it is in an imperfect state, it has this level of destructive power. If he had been normal, he might have lost at least a head.

‘but…!’

No matter what, attacks that don’t kill me only make me stronger.

As ‘Tyrantroid’ is activated, my body grows again. My strength becomes stronger as my body changes.

I returned the central head wearing Ice Horror’s carapace to its original state and mutated the fighting arms.

The skeleton inside the arm stretched, making a creepy sound. As the bone deformed, the part that originally served as a hand mutated into the shape of a sickle with a saw blade. The four fingers quickly decreased in size and soon degenerated into jagged claws.

The main weapon of the mantis-like Apex creature ‘Hellside Hornet’ is now in my hands.

I swung my transformed combat arm wildly. The sharp biological scythe was stuck in the black ring. This was possible thanks to the Tyrantroid’s strengthening effect as well as the unique sharpness of Hellside Hornet’s arms.

｢–｣

When there was a direct wound on the ring, it moved again. The arms that had been holding their palms together after clapping this time took the posture of putting their palms together.

Immediately afterwards, it gave off a tremendous amount of rebound. My head, which was biting the thing, and the biological scythe that I had embedded in the surface of the ring were popped out. Black liquid gushed out like a fountain from the wounded body.

I wasn’t the only one who was thrown away after being close to it. The airship that Alshas was riding was also swept up there, crashing into various places, and then being sucked out of space.

‘You won’t be able to escape like that.’

When captured by Vortex One, the rear rocket was already significantly damaged. Not only is it impossible to sail at faster than light speed, but it is also impossible to go down to nearby Berzan 02.

So, in effect, it’s like being trapped in a metal prison and floating around in space.

‘For now, let’s end the cycle of agony first.’

Putting aside my attention on Alshas, I focused on the enemy in front of me.

The guy who pushed me is trying to use his gravity manipulation ability like before. The moment the arms with their palms pressed against each other fell apart and were about to come back together, I pointed the tip of the center head at the guy.

When I opened my mouth wide, No. 26, hidden inside, came out. The guy who jumped and grew bigger ran towards Gori of Agony. Thousands of serrated tentacles growing from its body wrapped around its arms.

｢-｣

The arms that No. 26 could not hold clapped. An intangible force came upon me and No. 26, but it was much weaker than before. Because all of the arms did not move, the power was weakened. Thanks to this, No. 26 was holding up well.

While No. 26 held on, I prepared my psychic breath. Psychic power gathered in the monster’s tentacles attached to each head. Tentacles filled with enormous energy flicker like burning flames.

As soon as I gathered the right amount of power, I immediately fired my breath. Number 26 knew that I was gathering energy and quickly shrunk to avoid it.

Purple heat rays originating from the three heads struck the black ring. The impact of the breath staggered Gori and pushed him back significantly. The arms that were clasped together moved to assume different positions even as they burned.

At that time, a small light twinkled behind him. The identity of the light mixed with red and white was Aadhai.

While I rushed in first and caught Vortex One’s attention, he and Sky’s Mother decided to sneak in.

While the Ring of Anguish recognized me as an intruder and attacked, the guy who had bypassed the enemy’s rear finally launched an attack.

Red lightning strikes the black ring so fast that it is difficult to even follow its movement with the eye.

No matter how strong Vortex One is, it is useless in front of the best defense technology, ‘Red Armor’. Adhai, wearing red armor, pierced the enemy’s torso.

The ring of agony must have been unable to withstand the current attack, so it stopped before trying to counterattack.

I didn’t miss the opportunity and rushed at him. The moment it collided with the creature, a short shock wave was generated, and its body slightly floated upward.

‘Goes!’

I grabbed the guy in the air with my tentacles and wing arms and pushed him up to the wall opposite the surveillance office. Various obstacles, including the high command tower in the center and a large ship anchored nearby, collided with the object and exploded.

｢—｣

A guy who has received damage in succession twists his body.

‘It’s finally starting.’

I’m not doing that because I’m in pain. This is a signal that, unlike before, we will fight properly from now on.

The half-circular ring-shaped body bent and changed into a shape where the ends of the rings intersect. Originally, it should have been shaped like a figure 8, that is, a Möbius strip, but since only half of the body was present, it ended up looking like that.

“—-”
‘danger!’

Its arms were crossed in an X shape with the palms facing out.

When I saw that, I quickly took my hand away from him. Immediately after I fell, black rays of light spread out from its body in all directions.

It was a simple attack that spewed out the power of the abyss through the mouth on the palm, but the results were not light. Since it shoots the mass of energy that makes up Vortex One’s body through thousands or tens of thousands of mouths, it is bound to be like that.

Black energy bullets poured down like rain, destroying everything around them. Regardless of whether it was a ship covered in hard armor or an exterior wall that was dozens of times thicker, everything was shattered.

Other than me, No. 26 and Adhai actively used their respective abilities to avoid the barrage of energy bullets. Adhai easily avoided the incoming attack using his unique quick mobility. Number 26 shrunk his body so small that he could not be hit by energy bullets.

But since I’m big, I couldn’t avoid it like they did.

Countless energy bullets passed through my body. Even the shells strengthened with special characteristics were not enough to block Vortex One’s attacks. There were holes all over the body, including the wings, arms, back, and abdomen.

｢Pain reduction activated!｣

Blood pours out from the broken and pierced wound. The pain-relieving properties repeatedly send warning messages telling you to be careful.

‘I can endure this much!’

If your head and heart are not damaged, you can recover at any time. For now, we must trust in Aimov’s strong vitality.

I endured the rain of death and prepared my next weapon.

‘There are still many cults left here.’

Cults are hiding inside ships or defense facilities docked at the Observatory. They are unable to move because they are in panic because of the giant monsters that suddenly appear and destroy the building.

‘If you can’t come to your senses, I’ll help you.’
｢-｣

The Ring of Anguish stops firing energy bullets and tries to use its gravity manipulation ability again. Since it is used while changing the shape of the body, its destructive power and intensity will be much higher than before.

“Don’t bother the big baby!”

At that time, No. 26 extended its tentacles and aimed at him. The purple stream flowing from the end of the tentacle turned into a huge membrane and tried to cover the ring.

｢–｣

Gori’s arms changed from applauding to putting their hands together. It evaded No. 26’s curtain by using its semi-elasticity to float.

In the meantime, I used the powerful mind control talent ‘Messenger of Chaos’. When the trait was activated, an invisible psychic wave erupted from my body.

The Herald of Chaos can distort the cognitive abilities of all intelligent beings within a maximum radius of 500m. It would be difficult to control the opponent if they were a cult that was skilled at using psychic power, but now they were in a state of fear and had lost their reason.

Now, we can easily drive them into a state of recklessness bordering on insanity.

As I expected, some of the anchored ships moved. The only thought in their minds would be to kill the devil right away. The ship batteries of the ships that took off immediately burst into flames.

The target, of course, is the ring of agony, a giant monster floating in the air.

As several ships came forward and attacked, other ships began to gain courage and join in. Defensive batteries installed inside the surveillance office also supported the ships.

｢–｣

When even the ships that were standing still as if dead attacked him, the enemy began a defense and counterattack. Psychic heat rays fired from the ships bounced off the guy’s body. Some crashed into other ships and some crashed into the walls inside the surveillance office.

While he was paying attention to the ship, I lowered myself and crawled behind him.

‘Is this enough?’

Standing at the appropriate point, I planted my wing arms, fighting arms, and both legs into the floor of the structure. After fixing the body tightly so that it wouldn’t shake, I pulled out the tentacles and grabbed the guy.

｢-｣
‘It’s already too late!’

He tried to manipulate gravity on me, but this time I was one step faster. I gave strength to the limbs embedded in the surveillance office and at the same time pulled the tentacles.

A monster 1.5 times bigger than me is pulled towards me helplessly. A figure-eight ring broken in half flies over my head and into the wall opposite where the tip of my tail is pointing.

The moment it hit the wall, there was a loud roar and the structure itself tilted significantly. When I turned my head, I saw the thing break through the outer wall of the surveillance office and fall out into outer space.

‘good.’

First of all, the first goal planned is to be achieved.

I pulled out my arms and legs from the floor of the surveillance office. And I quickly caught No. 26, which rolled along the slanted floor.

[Zuzuzu(Are you okay?)]
｢I almost got into big trouble!｣
｢Me｣｢I’m okay｣

Aadhai also flew towards me and landed on the center’s head.

I came out of the devastated surveillance office with the guys.

｢—-｣

The guy is very angry and prepares to fire energy bullets at us.

Just when the arms attached to the surface were about to cross in an X shape.

The black heat ray that flew from the other side of the universe burned his body.

The name of the weapon that attacked Vortex One is ‘Black Cannon’.

Like the ‘Cosmic Bolt’, it is one of the secondary weapons of the Imperial Mothership that uses dark matter as an energy source.

Imperial carriers who received rescue requests from Berzan 02 and the Surveillance Office gathered here to subdue the ‘main enemy’.

‘good. Now it’s time to move on to the next plan.’
[Zuzuzu (please)]
｢Yes｣｢I｣｢Little Adult｣｢I can protect you｣

I handed over number 26 to Aadhai and unlocked the bone beast whose duration was running out.

My body, which had grown more than three times, suddenly shrunk. The white carapace that covered the entire body also lost its vitality and crumbled.

A considerable sense of exhaustion hit me, but it was not the time to rest.

I turned around once and took out the next card.

‘Symbol of hunting.’

Immediately after the transformation was completed.

The body of the Aimorph adult evolves again.
