Episode 157. Defeat Plague (5)
“There’s only one thing that could be called a possibility.”
“one thing?”
“Regardless of whether it is the seed of ‘power’ or not, what Purkas wants is not plasma energy.”
Salomon exhaled smoke and asked back.
“Didn’t Purkas want the seed of ‘power’?”
“that’s right. but you said There are many powers that can be obtained in one dimension.”
The only seed found by Taeyang’s party was plasma energy, but two or three seeds could come out.
“Rather than that, look at the system window.”
“ah.”
At Taeyang’s words, Ran and I also admired a little.
[10-1 Eradication of Plague: Eliminate the source of the plague and restore the last fortress.]
Obtaining plasma energy does not fit the purpose of the stage, ‘defeat the source of the plague’.
“We got it wrong in the first place. This happened because we put stage clearing on the back burner and only thought about what we had to do.”
In order to know someone’s desire, of course you have to observe that person.
speech, behavior, attitude, etc.
To find out Purkas’s intentions?
Of course, you have to observe the words, actions, and attitudes of Purkas.
Taeyang’s party has not yet met Purkas.
If Purkas and their only connection point was, of course, the system window.
“The system window told me to fight the plague. plague. Of course it refers to the host monsters.”
Originally, the player faced the enemy prepared by the demon king.
But at least not as much as the plague eradication stage.
“that’s right. This is not the place prepared by the Demon King.”
There is even a place where the devil wants something else.
And the demon king told the players to defeat the plague.
The sun nodded.
“That means the host is not a monster controlled by Furkas. I even told you to get rid of it.”
“So who is the host?”
“The first host was said to have arisen naturally. But now, if you dare to ask what the ‘source of the plague’ is, you can talk about it.”
Messiah answered as if moaning.
“Supercomputer.”
“okay. A pestilence maker that is creating the 3rd ‘host’ by taking half of the food in the food storage. super computer. And to put this in other words, I don’t know about the 1st and 2nd hosts, but the 3rd hosts are definitely being produced by supercomputers engineered by the ‘natives’.”
Then what to do becomes clear.
The sun grinned.
“What we have to do is search the lab without killing the host as much as possible. Then you just have to look for clues.”
Urf, who had been listening to the story, intervened.
“Hero, in each laboratory, there must be a journal recorded by a researcher such as the head of the laboratory or the leader. If you look for it, you may be able to learn more about the 2nd and 3rd plague events.”
“May it be. nice. good night. Smart people are also good at recording like this. Thank you.”
Salomon shut up.
Messiah and Ran also looked at the sun with strange faces.
-oh; Yoon Taeyang, why do you use your hair?
-The battle cheater has intelligence.
-Yoon Taeyang! Taeyang Yoon! Taeyang Yoon!
-Your brain... has become sexy?
-Balbung or this?
Taeyang glanced at the chat window and shook his head.
at that time.
Koo Goo Goo Palace.
The fort began to shake.
Is it an attack by the hosts?
Taeyang and his party were alert in all directions in an orderly manner.
Urf looked at them and calmed them down.
“It’s just an earthquake. At some point, an earthquake occurred around the fort.”
“earthquake? Didn’t you say that the fort was built in the safest place while talking about the end of mankind?”
“yes. Strange. Actually, we tried to find out, but the host just started to boil... ... . You don’t have to worry anyway.”
***
Returning to the shelter, Taeyang and his party did not rest for long.
Powerful Nansin (怪力亂神) – Typhoon (颱風).
Aaaaaang!
The small, creepy monsters flew away at once.
The sun quickly scanned the enemies.
‘There is no 1 vs. 2 host.’
The plasma energy that appeared when the sun party raided the food warehouse led somewhere.
If the information at that time had been leaked, the supercomputer would have known the existence of the Taeyang party.
No new host has been placed in the food warehouse, nor has the perimeter around the fort been strengthened.
Did the supercomputer not even care about Taeyang’s party in the first place?
Starburst High Kick – Canon Form.
Wow!
A ray of light burst from the tip of the sun punctured the stairway leading upstairs.
Clumps of smoke blocked the hosts from entering, and Messiah’s psychic power crushed and killed the hosts that attacked from the other side.
“hurry! There’s nothing good about being held here for too long!”
“firing!”
[Plasma particle cannon open] x10
Kwagwagwagwang!
A beam of power so powerful that the inside wall of the fortress collapsed in an instant pierced the three major hosts mercilessly.
Ran skillfully created a vacuum to minimize noise.
At the same time, some of the three major hosts that had penetrated the fire net or light net were pierced with the tip of a fan and bounced off.
Kieeck!
“It’s great.”
Ran frowned.
It takes a lot of care to deal with the three major hosts, which are said to be the weakest of the three types of hosts.
A completely different level of difficulty from the previous floor.
Because the difficulty was not controlled by the demon king, the balance was out of balance, so I had no choice but to feel that way.
Of course, it has become difficult, but the power balance of Taeyang and his party has long since surpassed the level of those on the same floor.
“What is the mana situation?”
“are you okay!”
“Okay!”
“Nothing wrong.”
The sun shouted at Urf.
“now!”
“yes!”
Natives ran into the lab.
Of course, they are more efficient than the sun crew when it comes to finding journals or records.
“Salomon! Messiah! You guys help Urf and the others!”
This is also natural.
Because there might be another group of hosts in the lab.
The sun added.
“Guys! know? If there is anything to fight, the destruction of the laboratory is minimal! If the data is blown away, things get tricky!”
The moment Messiah and Salomon nod at the same time and disappear upstairs with Urf and his party.
Quadruped!
A huge boulder fell on Messiah and Salomon.
stormy wind.
Limited Gravity Control.
Call: Lightning.
Quadruped!
The stone was instantly pulverized by the interception of the three magic (skill) players.
“Obviously, I reduced the noise as much as possible.”
“I was torn apart on my own, but was that not enough?”
The four players looked at the newly appeared monsters, frowning.
Kieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Wow!
An overgrown fist.
Compared to the three major hosts, a form that resembles a human by leaps and bounds.
2nd host.
They were the ones who first encountered the sun’s party.
