Episode 275 – Chaos (3)



The 2nd Command Center’s underground bunker has been there since the cult empire built Kesha Arma.

At the time of construction, it was just an ordinary shelter, but Montana paid special attention to prepare for any unexpected situation. Thanks to this, it was transformed into an ultra-luxury shelter with dozens of accommodations and amenities.

But the refugees being served in that luxurious underground bunker seemed very dissatisfied.

“How did this happen! “I’ll go back right away, so open the door quickly!”

“Montana’s orders. “You cannot leave until the fortress is secure.”

“This is such a violent act against us! “The empire will never sit idly by and ignore this!”

Those who were in the banquet hall and hurriedly evacuated constantly poured out their complaints to the mercenaries who were in charge of security and the androids who were entertaining them.

“How dare you lock us in a place like this?”

“Hang in there.” “I don’t think the commotion above is normal, so you’ll just have to wait a little longer.”

“Doesn’t that vibration just now mean it’s going to be dangerous even here?”

“This is an air raid shelter made by the Empire, so it is durable at least. “You don’t have to worry.”

“I beg your pardon? What if it goes wrong? Are you going to take responsibility for that?”

“yes? “Oh, that’s...”

People talking nonsense while drinking high-quality alcohol and snacks stored in the bunker. The security guards were suppressing their anger at their employers’ behavior.

Because the situation was special, high-quality snacks were being distributed little by little to the mercenaries in charge of security. Thanks to that, we were able to endure. Otherwise, the division would have been formed a long time ago.

“hey.”

“yes?”

“Don’t eat or waste food unnecessarily; go outside and take a look.”

“that’s right. “I hired you for times like this, so come with me and check it out.”

“...yep.”

“And get rid of those damn robots.”

The security guards felt like they would shoot their employers if they stayed here any longer, so they forced themselves out of the room. The androids also left, saying they would bring new snacks and alcohol.

“Pathetic things! “I didn’t know that I got to this precious place with someone’s credit!”

“That’s right. “I thought Montana was okay, but I’m disappointed.”

“Tsk, I wasn’t going to trust someone who relied on androids in the first place.”

“As expected, there is nothing we can do since our roots are pirates.”

The VIPs, whose faces turned red from drinking high-quality liquor, began to gossip about the security guard and Montana.

The humans who came here are all Middle Capital, the upper middle class of Megacorp. He was merely an agent who came under orders from Noble Capital or Prime Capital.

Everyone here knew this, but no one pointed it out. They were venting their dissatisfaction even though they were receiving treatment they could never enjoy in their own capital.

On the one hand, while the Megacorp VIPs raised their voices, the cult customers talked among themselves about the state of the empire.

“I think it will take some time to leave, but let’s continue what we talked about earlier.”

“You mean the arms purchase business? well. “It was said in this Congress that total production is decreasing, but what can we do?”

“The atmosphere is chaotic these days, so shouldn’t we at least be well prepared?”

“Our faction officially supports arms reduction.”

“Huh, it’s times like this that integration is important. What does the opinions of factions matter?...”

At that time, the room they were staying in shook. The light decorated with transparent jewels flickered and then went out. The room suddenly fell into darkness. Everyone screamed, regardless of the human cult.

“Aaaah!”

“Ughhhhh!”

After a while, they were finally able to calm down after the red emergency lights came on.

“What is this?”

“Android! “Where’s the android!”

“Bodyguard!”

The humans who had been screaming and falling asleep just now stood up and screamed in anger. The sight of him swearing at the androids and bodyguards was nowhere to be seen.

“I understand that Kesha Arma’s bomb shelter is very durable, is that correct?”

“I heard that it was created just before the empire fell...” “

...Whatever it was, the current vibration was heard quite close by.”

Although the cult members remained relatively calm, they could not hide the anxiety on their faces. Then, one of the cult members stood up.

“You idiots! When on earth will you come....”

“Everyone, be quiet!”

The cult stood up and scolded the loudly shouting Megacorp personnel.

“I heard something.”

“sound?”

“I can’t hear anything.”

The cult raised its hand to signal for everyone to be quiet and put their ears close to the wall. In the quiet room, the only sound was the shallow breathing of people.

No, except for one thing.

“...!”

The cult’s ears perked up at the sound coming from beyond the wall.

He wasn’t the only one who heard that sound. The others also heard it clearly.

That sound you hear outside, beyond the wall.

But a monster is following closely behind them. No matter how you get to the elevator, you will all be killed by the monster before the door opens.

“We have to make time for poetry!”

The humans who were running away exchanged glances with each other.

Cults are skilled in psychic powers, but their physical abilities are inferior to humans. It may be noticeable if they wear reinforced clothing, but otherwise, even adult male cult members can be subdued by human women. So, it goes without saying that it is a female cult.

After a short period of deliberation, the humans made an extremely Megacorp-like decision. We decided to sacrifice the female cults that were slowly falling behind as sacrifices to the monster.

“Your sacrifice will not be forgotten!”

“what? “What are you doing...Aaaah!”

“Help ... Ahhhh!”

The monster opened its elongated maw and swallowed the fallen female cultist. Another cult member who fell together tried to escape by crawling on the ground, but had no luck.

While the luxurious carpet was stained with blood, humans and cultists arrived in front of the elevator. They quickly operated the terminal, opened the elevator door, and jumped inside.

“Close it quickly! “Close it!”

The elevator doors closed as quickly as they opened. The moment the large iron door, several meters high, closed, a loud noise sounded and the door was slightly dented.

I thought it might be broken, but fortunately the elevator worked normally. A fast-moving elevator going up to the headquarters. As the surviving humans tried to take a breather, the angry cult captured them.

“How dare you!”

“The Empire will never overlook your actions!”

“Why are you like this? “If it weren’t for us, everyone would have died down there!”

“Didn’t you agree with that too? “If you wanted to save me, you should have stayed when we pushed you away!”

While they were arguing, the elevator arrived at the floor where the headquarters banquet room was located.

The door opened and the familiar sight of the banquet room greeted them.

The man who was grabbed by the collar by the bearded cult member strongly shook off his arm and walked out.

“That’s your problem! “Everyone pretends to be noble about the same topic as us...”

The moment he turned his head and was about to scream at the cultists in the elevator.

All of the passengers disappeared from his sight.

“Doing...”

The one who appeared, tearing off the entire metal floor of the elevator and sending the humans and cultists crashing down, was the entity he least wanted to encounter.

Huge asymmetrical horns on the head. White eyes that shine dimly and without emotion. And a snout full of sharp teeth.

The mouth of the monster he had seen in the bunker opened and its large tongue approached him.



‘Hmm. ‘He’s not good either.’

The humans in the underground bunker didn’t taste as good as I thought. To be honest, I thought it would be okay since she was a VIP of Megacorp even though she wasn’t at Sihyeon or Eugene’s level, but it wasn’t.

All of them were ordinary people who had not undergone any genetic modification. Is the only advantage that meat is rich in fat?

‘The cults were okay overall, though.’

I threw my remaining leg up. Number 26, who was riding on my back, grabbed the leg I threw with its pink tentacles. The guy ate it quickly, wiggling around, and left a short comment.

“It’s not good.”

[Zuzu (right?)]

As the time he spent with me increased, he learned to evaluate taste in his own way.

There are three types: delicious and not very tasty.

In fact, since it is eaten by melting the food with its body, it is unclear how it tastes, but it seems to have its own standards.

‘Now that I think about it, this is the banquet hall.’

Several long tables were seen in a space decorated with all kinds of gorgeous jewels, as if decorated by a wealthy father. There was food left on the table because they had to evacuate quickly because of my attack.

I handed the dishes on the table to No. 26 on a plate.

“It’s delicious!”

[Zuzuzuzu (Thank goodness)]

The guy seemed to like it, stretched out his tentacles, wrapped around the remaining food, and stuffed it into his body. Seeing that image reminded me of the black monster from a Japanese animation I saw at a museum when I was young.

‘That was before I got burned. ‘It’s a memory.’

Like him, I put an apple from the jeweled basket into my mouth and left the banquet hall.

Those above didn’t seem to know that I had devastated the underground bunker. I crawled up the stairs to the first floor without any restraint.

The first floor lobby was full of pirates. They had set up barricades and were preparing in case the shield wall was breached.

One of them turned his head, wiping the sweat off the back of his neck, and saw me. His eyes widened as if they were about to tear out. It was as if a monster was coming out from behind.

My erosion tentacles decided to answer for me.

It took less than 5 minutes for there to be no living pirates left in the lobby.

I took out a terminal from the arms of a pirate with only his upper body remaining. As I gently pressed the button with my small arm near my chest, the shielding wall near the entrance began to move slowly.

“What kind of bastard is disabling the wall! “Stop it right now...!”

I trampled the blood-soaked communicator to prevent it from making noise. When the shielding wall near the entrance opened, familiar faces appeared.

“Gigigigiki”

“Gigigigig”

“I want to kill you! I want to bite your neck and drink your blood!.”

Mutants and madmen cheer when they see me.

I decided to give them the answer they wanted.

Destroy this headquarters to your heart’s content.

As soon as the order was given, a legion of madmen poured into the headquarters.
