Chapter 1690 – [Dead Universe-1]

Eden was busy wandering around, creating purified water, making people drink it, and healing them.

It heals even serious injuries at once, allowing movement, and restores to some extent even the exhausted and weakened mind. The most noticeable effect is that even those who had been talking nonsense and having fits after being contacted by the Vadis came to their senses, although they looked haggard.

Now that there is more space and hope, people are smiling and talking. On the other hand, there were also people who laughed and talked on purpose to hide their anxiety.

“Hwiyu, you’re so pretty that it makes my eyes widen. Did you get any separate cosmetic treatment?”

“I’m natural, right? So is Eve.”

“You mean the calm-looking twins over there? They’re both pretty, but I prefer the girl who looks more lively. How old are they this year?”

“Twenty-one.”

“Wow, you’re a lot younger than I thought.”

“I’m more than ten years older than you, so I have to look at it. And do you see that your father over there is paying attention? If you don’t want to get hit in the stomach with a double-barreled plasma shotgun, stay still.”

“No, but what is that liquid made of? If you taste it, it’s just water, but is it some kind of specially purified drug? Did you have a separate implant like that?”

“It’s a trade secret.”

It was annoying to ask Eden to do something, but I knew that more than half of what they did was a joke, so I watched but didn’t do anything.

If you’re a really dark bastard, you’d rather not make a joke like that. They might be watching you from behind and looking for an opportunity to attack and rape you.

I wonder if they would do that to the person who helped them, but humans do all kinds of ugly things when their lives are in crisis. I want to quench my sexual desire before going crazy, but wouldn’t it be as obvious as seeing two incredibly beautiful women like Eden or Eve next to me?

On the other hand, I feel like the people who do that now are elites. The degree to which the mental waves transmitted when contacting a Badis are accepted varies from person to person, so depending on one’s mental strength, one may become a Badis after just one or two encounters, while some people may be fine even after contacting it more than ten times. This means that they are mentally strong people who fought that hard.

Moreover, considering that most of them were capable of fighting, it appears that they were at least engaged in manual labor. When I asked Nasha, she nodded her head as if it was correct.

“Yes, we haven’t officially set sail. The Fromus is a refuge ship built in case of emergency, but Just One attacked faster than expected, and many of the people on board are engineers who were building the Fromus.”

“I guess I understand the situation.”

“We rushed to pick up people and departed, but we couldn’t get even half of the passengers on board, and instead, among those passengers, there was a person who was showing symptoms of Vadis… In the end, most of the regular passengers were infected with Vadis.”

It’s roughly understandable. Even if you prepare for the apocalypse, if the apocalypse suddenly comes, you will have to evacuate without being properly prepared, and it would have been five minutes before the end.

It is difficult to hope for order there. On the contrary, I think I have endured well so far in such the worst situation. No, did you endure it because your mental strength is strong enough to withstand even the badis’ mental attacks?

Anyway, I stayed for a while and looked after the survivors and heard various information. Of course, I have to tell you about this too.

“But what civilian ships are they? I heard that because of Just One, most civilian ships are being requisitioned and remodeled for combat.”

“It’s my wife’s privately owned ship. And I haven’t heard of any problems with it.”

“Oh, it looks like her wife is a government official.”

It is still difficult to reveal the truth. They are people whose civilization was destroyed after being invaded by an alien-like guy called Just One. Even if you say you are from another world, they will only make you wary.

It is not too late to coax the survivors to take refuge in the Horizon, and then tell them the truth. It may have been deceiving, but at least this side is purely trying to help without calculating gain or loss.

“I think we should bring David with him before we escape.”

“Um, are you serious? David?”

“Why are you doing that?”

“… David took it upon himself to head to the control room. He took over the captain’s authority as Badis and blocked the door to the control room to prevent high-level Badis from appearing. But he didn’t think about returning.”〈 Br〉

Below article Looking at the current situation, the interior of Fromus is no different from a devil’s den. They blocked the entrance door to prevent high-level badis from coming out, but the level 3 badis we saw earlier were quite high, so walking around alone is dangerous.

However, he took action to save people. And he thought of us who had received the rescue signal and even warned us even though our lives were in danger.

A good, good guy should live a long time. Especially after civilization collapses like now.

“It will be dangerous if you go. But… I still want you to bring him.”

“Are you my boyfriend?”

“Is it noticeable?”

“I can see that you are worried. Anyway, please relax. In fact, the reason we came to help you is that we like that friend, so what if we don’t have that friend when we escape?”

For now, I decided to leave Eve here and just go to Eden.

There were several reasons for leaving Eve behind, including the protection and mental stability of the survivors who did not know what might happen, as well as inspection of the transport plane for escape and various other tasks. Since it is a purely scientific civilization, Eve has a lot to do, so she is quite busy.

Since I saw him destroy a level 3 Vadis earlier, he won’t do anything stupid if left alone. If anything goes wrong, I can tear up the dimension and come back, so all I have to do is throw those guys into Horizon Thunder.

“I installed a hacking tool on the work terminal I received separately from here. It will take some time due to limitations in functionality, but you will be able to open the entrance.”

“Oh, thank you.”

After finishing preparations for departure, we immediately set off to bring David back. At the same time, the survivors send them off in a grand manner.

“Hey brother!!!! If you are the child’s father, protect the child even if it means death!!!!”

“David, if that bastard brings a kid, I’ll give him a kick later!!!!!”

“If I can’t come back, I’m going to ask someone who looks calm on a date, so take care of your life!!!”

“No, who the fuck was that guy who spoke last?! Come out!!!!!”

Haha!!!! I told you!!! A double barrel plasma shotgun can fit?”

I know that making such bad jokes is because I want to somehow overcome the horror of the current situation with laughter, so I will tolerate it as long as I don’t do it.

Anyway, Eden and I left for the control room right away. The worker terminal that Eve gave us included a map of the Fromus’ internal structure, and our suit also had a separate augmented reality function to display a holographic map, so there was no chance of getting lost.

As before, I tore off an iron plate, climbed on top of it, and headed toward the stern of the ship along the loop rail. Because the control room is over there.

I thought I would meet Vadis in the middle of the history section like I saw while moving toward the hangar… But it was quieter than I expected.

“It smells unpleasant.”

“That’s right. Looking at the atmosphere being different from before, it looks like something is going on.”

“Isn’t it because Dad started a fight!?”

“… I can’t deny it.”

Just One, the being beyond the body, took interest in this area through communication with me.

Maybe that’s why they’re making a deliberate move on the Fromus, where it was only a matter of time before they were dealt with… I guess I’ll have to escape quickly to use it.

So I quickly headed to the control room. However, the problems that inevitably arose there were a different story.

“Oh, Dad. Over there!!!!!”

“It’s so confusing.”

As we headed toward the control room, we encountered a huge giant blocking the center.

It seems to be the level 3 body I saw before. Ah, if I think about it now, the people who were talking to me were probably level 2.

-Aaaaa!!!!!

Badis, emitting mental waves like a gatekeeper, swung his arms as we approached.

Something with fingers forming a human body is attacking us. It was difficult to deal with it with ordinary attacks, and the monster attacked that did not work unless it was an attack with high firepower or will.

In response, I used my telekinetic powers to crush the guy. On the surface, it is pure physical force, but because it is the simplest, the body that was attacking us was crushed and turned into pieces of meat.

Kwajijijijik!!!!!

“Ugh, grotesque!!!”

“I can’t help it. There is no other way than this.”

“I could kill my dad better.”

“It’s annoying if you leave it alone and a problem arises. You can’t let it live, so you have to kill it in the end. What a waste of power it is to use your power for something like this.”

“How much of a waste is it really?”

“I feel like I’m taking a taxi going next door.”

“What a waste!!!!!”

Anyway, Just One is coming with a plan, so we need to quickly take David with us and avoid the situation.

It’s not difficult for a level 3 Badis, but it’s difficult for an ordinary person to deal with. Honestly, you’d need military-level firepower to deal with that. In fact, it only takes a hundred people to make that thing.

As we moved along, we arrived at the station closest to the stern of the loop line station. However, it is not possible to go directly to the control room from here; you have to take the elevator to the top.

However, like the entrance door, this side was also blocked so that it could not be used without permission. Normally, we would have to find another way, but we had a plethora of other ways to deal with it.

Among them, I decided to use the hacking tool Eve gave me. As soon as I connected it to the elevator panel and pressed the button, the hacking started immediately. However, I couldn’t help it that it took time.

“Maybe I should have just flown away.”

“It can’t be helped. It’s natural that it takes time to hack with such a small device in the first place. It’s strange if unlocking the Aegis box with a cell phone takes 10 seconds.”

“That’s it again.”

As I was waiting leisurely, I felt a presence around me.

There is no sign of a person, so it is obvious that it is Vadis. As we secretly prepared for that, they attempted a surprise attack on us.

It is not level 3. However, like the colony of Bodies that communicated with Just One, they were Bodies that appeared to be roughly level 2.

This one was not a humanoid like a giant. However, people lined up like centipedes, holding on to each other, wriggling and stretching out like whips to surprise us.

“Human centipede!!!! Oh my god!!!!!”

“It looks similar.”

Even if one human being is 1 meter long, if there are several people connected, the length will be approximately several meters. It’s actually longer.

If ordinary humans were connected, it would be difficult to move, and it would just look like performance art, but with the support of Just One as many people gathered, their movements were agile. It’s not enough to break the speed of sound, but it’s enough to catch you if you look away.

Maybe it takes that form for mental wave infection. All you have to do is drive a stake, wait, and then touch it a few times.

But it was of no use to us. Several tentacle-like human centipede-like things tried to attack us, but they were meaningless in the face of Eden and I’s onslaught. They are cut off with one punch or a single slash of a knife and disposed of to the point where they can no longer harm anyone.

“Those people must have boarded this ship to survive…”

“Is it Just One? That kid is a kid. Don’t worry, go and dad will scold you.”

If nothing else, anyone who threatens the survival of civilization is an enemy of the Great Demon King. Moreover, since a civilization had already been destroyed in the current situation, there was no need to secure evidence.

After rescuing the survivors from the Fromus, I’m going to kill that bastard right away. Even from the perspective of a dimensional civilization, it has a level of power that can be recognized, but is it worth knowing? If you killed it, you should die.

Afterward, the level 2 Bodies were dealt with and the hacking of the elevator was completed. So we boarded the elevator and went up to the control room.

Although it is not directly connected to the control room, you can still get to somewhere close by. And when the elevator door opened, I found a fairly large square with squirming and convulsing bodices scattered about.

“If you look at the numbers, is it level 3?”

“Wow, how did you catch this? It was a level 3 thing that was difficult even if the survivors tried their best to stop it.”

It wasn’t just that he was suppressed, but his internal organs, such as his internal organs, were turned to mush, and he couldn’t move. Because of that, it seems obvious that mental waves cannot be received properly, and vital activity will stop soon.

And we found a man in the corner of the square. Since I had seen his face before through communication, it wasn’t that difficult to recognize him.

He was the David we were looking for. It looks like he got seriously injured during a fight.

“All of you…”

“I know because I saw it during the communication. This is the rescue team from the civilian ship Horizon.”

“I told you not to come like that… But it was late.”

The man’s condition was not good. He barely escaped immediate death, but his internal organs and breathing were not good. It looks like there are broken bones here and there, and it’s only a matter of time before he dies.

“We administered therapeutic nanomachines, but it only buys time. So, rather than me, it’s better for other people…”

“Eden.”

“Fuck sad endings!!! I like happy endings!!!!!”

Eden poured the essence of her water on him to the point that he couldn’t help but shower. Then his condition began to improve rapidly.

If the broken bone is properly attached, the ruptured internal organs or organs will recover to a better condition than before. Aside from everything else, it is a natural result since the essence of water is so useful that it can be used during resuscitation procedures.

It’s not like a disaster where we come this far and the person we’re trying to save dies. At times like this, I think that our Eden cheats are perfect.
