386. Evolution
It was about 20 minutes after Double Peak encountered the strange invader in the melting black hole.
A hole appeared in the middle of a rice paddy field on the outskirts of Gangneung.
The problem is that there is no melting phenomenon in the hole.
Instead of the melting gate that has been appearing more than 99% of the time recently, a proper hole has been drilled.
Bam!
A crack appears, and an unknown darkness raises its head within it.
The troops that were dispatched at the same time as the alarm sounded stood in front of it.
It was the PWAT team.
The team leader reported to headquarters via radio without taking his eyes off the black hole.
“Gate opens. Standby troops, number eight thousand.”
‘The numbers are below ten thousand.’
It is significantly higher than a normal gate.
A strange tension filled the surroundings.
The PWAT veteran team leader took a deep breath and observed the situation.
“It’s open!”
The subordinate shouted. Cracks appeared and broke, and the hole opened.
It was a mysterious scene no matter how I saw it.
Of course, behind that mystery lies a terrible danger.
They were armed with rail guns purchased from NS.
Even if Wheel Knight came out, he could still put a hole in your head.
It was that much power.
The team leader felt that the air was somehow damp and his body felt sagging.
‘Are you too nervous?’
A strange sense of discomfort hung in the air.
That’s the moment. A light flashed in the hall.
There is a saying, “a sudden blow.”
It was a completely unexpected attack.
In other words, it could have been called a surprise attack.
The group, guns aimed, waited for the invaders to come out after the hole opened.
But instead of invaders, a fireball erupted from inside the hall.
“Barrier!”
As soon as he saw the fireball, the team leader shouted briefly.
The four team members reflexively deployed a defensive shield.
Kwa-ang! Hwarururuk!
An invisible shield blocked the fireball.
The fire blocked by the glass curtain burst out and spread in all directions.
It was blocked, but only partially.
The rest of the team was within range of the fireball.
A teammate engulfed in flames screams.
Unfortunately, that wasn’t the end of it. Another fireball erupted from inside the hall.
This time, I was prepared, so the barrier’s range was exactly right to block the flames.
A blazing mass of flame smashes through the barrier again.
Kwa-aaaaang!
A louder explosion than before erupted from the ship.
I felt like my eardrums were going to burst.
“Injured! Injured!”
“What the heck!”
“Don’t lower the barrier!”
“Scream! Scream!”
As the rail gun fired, sparks flew from the overheated gun. Bullets charged with electricity along with blue sparks tore through the hole at a terrifying speed.
Doo doo doo doo doo!
At the front of the hall, a pale, almost blue hand was sticking out.
And in front of that hand, several layers of protective shields were visible.
Traces of the broken shield that stopped the bullet.
‘… Hexagon field?’
A magician’s exclusive possession that creates a hexagonal shape.
It was an order.
The team leader felt like he was going to lose his mind.
What was happening before my eyes didn’t stick in my mind.
Still, he is a leader.
It was a time when judgment was needed.
‘Retreat is meaningless.’
There were only four people with barrier abilities.
One of them is already bleeding profusely from the nose.
‘If you can’t stop it.’
All you have to do is destroy the subject.
The team leader said.

Soon every member of the PWAT team was firing their rail guns in rapid succession.
Magic shield? Okay, this is it.
Is that specialized in blocking physical force? Try blocking it.
How many protective spells can simply ignore this level of firepower?
Tttttttt, tttttt!
The firepower poured down, ignoring the shield and such. The hexagon field, which had already cracked, was torn to pieces and exploded with a bang.
Even as the hail of bullets continued, an invader emerged from the hall.
Naturally, as soon as he came out, his whole body became covered in beehives.
It was just a moment.
His entire body was riddled with bullet holes, so much so that you wouldn’t be able to tell what he was doing unless you looked closely.
The team leader observed the perforated invader.
Although the overall shape was ruined, the traces remained clearly.
The Invader’s unexploded eyeball rolled around and met his own eyes.
‘Cloak?’
Red blood, bluish skin, and red eyes.
Its appearance was similar to that of a human.
But it was definitely different from humans.
A man with holes all over his body screamed.
Squeak!
It’s the scream of a beast.
The bastard screamed and fell to the floor.
A trail of blood continued down the hall.
‘I’m getting tired of it.’
The vitality of this guy was terrifying.
Even if it happens like that, you don’t die right away.
One of the team members who was watching used his telekinesis to throw a knife and stab him in the head.
And yet the bastard squirmed.
‘There may be some weaknesses.’
If you leave it alone, it will die. Or it will be incapable of fighting.
The problem is that there isn’t just one of them.
“The reader is responding! It’s coming out in 2nd place!”
‘How many will come out?’
We don’t know it now, but they had one thing to do.
“Scratched.”
It’s like making a piece of rag with holes all over it with the remaining bullets.
The next one looked similar, but didn’t have a cloak.
There was no genital organ between the legs, and on the side there were breathing holes similar to fish gills.
It was a naked invader.
‘You’re not breathing through your mouth.’
The team leader mentally reviewed the invader information for later.
Invaders that looked similar kept appearing one after another.
Still, I feel more relaxed than before.
Thanks to the free time, the team leader was also able to observe the flow of the invaders.
‘Mass production of special species?’
It’s a special species, but it’s the same kind.
Could the Invaders do something like this?
Anyway, this side had the upper hand in firepower.
If you’re dealing with someone who stupidly comes straight at you, this side is definitely superior…
“Ahh!”
A scream was heard. It was behind him. The team leader turned his head back.
‘!’
I had no words to express other than surprise.
He’s definitely the guy who was crawling on the floor.
One of the team members who was watching that was the one who stuck a knife in his head.
The guy was standing up, covering himself with his cloak.
“High-speed playback?”
The team leader spoke with blank eyes. He meant it exactly as he said.
The body of the guy who came out was quickly healing.
Bubbles bubble up, skin forms, and nerve trunks are connected.
The knife stuck in his head is pushed out. The bastard bites one of his team members in the neck and chest.
It was sucking blood.
Its snout opened like a crocodile’s and its mouth bit from shoulder to neck and chest.
“S, save me… … .”
The caught team member licked his lips.
“Shoot! Shoot!”
Someone shouted, speaking for the team leader.
Doo doo doo doo!
Another bullet rang out.
The bastard activated the hexagon field and struggled to block the bullets.
But the field was soon shattered and his body was riddled with holes.
“Ugh!”
This time, the team leader really lost his mind.
He didn’t respond.
Back again.
In front of the hall, a naked monster regenerates its body and charges forward.
Some of the team members activated their supernatural powers and fought.
Cut, stab, burn and freeze with a knife.
And the invaders that came out of the hall sucked their blood with high-speed regeneration.
The total number of numbers that came out was eight.
The PWAT team was annihilated in a close battle.
The brain princess spent all her time floating around the internet world, except for physical training.
It was her hobby, her job, her everything.
Thanks to that, she was able to see them die.
‘They’re all dead.’
The invader that came out looked around and then twitched the gills attached to its side.
Then it started moving towards one side.
News of the PWAT team’s annihilation should have already been delivered.
So where does this crowd move?
Closed-circuit cameras placed everywhere become her eyes.
Soon I could see where they were heading.
It was a farmhouse.
They were moving in search of humans.
At that moment, bang— some of the circuitry that replaced her eyes snapped.
‘The camera?’
A horde of invaders destroyed exactly what was supposed to be her eyes.
Throwing ice or fire from your hands.
‘It’s an order.’
I saw it before, but now it was certain.
The invader casts a spell.
Why? I don’t know.
But one thing was clear.
If we leave it like this, people will start dying like crazy.
The Brain Princess found the location of the NS executives on the web.
The representative was the closest.
She immediately called her representative.
To be exact, he set off an emergency alert on his hologram phone.
Pfft!
Suddenly my phone started ringing like crazy.
The vibration and sound rang out at the same time.
“You seem busy.”
I nodded at the smiling prophet.
“I must be really popular.”
He got up from his seat with a dull noise.
This alarm is for the company.
I opened the hologram phone.
Then the video started right away.
Who hacked my phone without my permission?
Well, who would do something like that?
There is only the Brain Princess who is responsible for the overall security of our company.
The footage showed the PWAT team being annihilated.
At the same time, a voice rang out from the holographic phone.
“I took a picture of the address. If you leave it alone, you’ll die more.”
“I’m coming.”
Let’s go out of the cafe with the answer.
“There was no malicious intent.”
The boss, overwhelmed, said. I pushed the man aside.
“Okay, later.”
First of all, I said it’s urgent.
As I take my left step out of the cafe, my whole body muscles swell.
Plop. Bang!
The clothes I was wearing were ripped off.
Black fur and blue stripes, after transforming, I kicked the ground.
Sorry, but my feet are faster than any vehicle right now.
It was a distance that would take less than 5 minutes if you ran.
All the surrounding scenery becomes blurred and pushed back.
Pa-ang.
He ran, tearing through the air.
In an instant, I arrived at my destination and saw a group of people with pale skin.
Kick the ground and close the distance. Keeping your back straight, strike with your left hand outward.
Phew!
My fingernails quickly split the bastard into three pieces.
Head, chest, and lower body.
The severed body fell to the floor with a thud.
“Nice to meet you.”
I kicked the head of the guy who was reaching out from the right with his foot while talking.
Even a watermelon wouldn’t burst so easily.
Blood and brain matter spurted out like a fountain from the Invader’s shattered body.
This is a problem that arose from not controlling strength.
After we take out those two guys, the remaining guys start to distance themselves.
What are these?
environment?
That wasn’t the end of it.
The bodies of the two men I killed began to bubble with blood, and they began to regenerate at high speed.
There it is!
A fireball is flying.
I saw it in a video, but it’s really amazing.
It was a type I had never seen before, even while exploring the flower fields.
I put strength into my fist and slammed the fireball upward.
If I strike very quickly and with a lot of force, my fist momentarily creates a thin layer of air.
Then something like this would have been possible.
So, it’s like casting a fireball spell and making it explode above someone’s head.
Sparks flew down from the fireball that exploded like a firecracker above his head.
“Do you know how to speak?”
I said and looked around at the guys.
There was no answer.
If humanity evolves, what about the invaders?
Of course, Invaders could also evolve.
So, what would it be like if those who just happily get beaten by humans evolved?
When pushed by quantity, they had no fun.
I went up to number eighty or ninety, but I lost.
So what I made was irregular.
It’s a special species.
But this too was overcome by mankind in a comical way.
What happens after that? It’s named.
A truly superior single entity.
He killed him too.
As I fought, I could understand their choices.
If it were me, I would have changed my strategy in this way.
Neither the quantity nor the specificity of the individual.
An elite force that is pulled out while controlling the number.
So, they are a completely different concept from the invaders we have seen so far.
Unknown Invader.
It would have been fine to name it like this.
That’s how I felt while fighting off a bunch of crazy cloaked barbarians and naked, depraved invaders.
“It’s tough.”
And this is an evaluation.
They were dirty, undead guys.
It was like dealing with an immortal… … .
In the midst of thought.
Suddenly, I realized something.
We also learned from watching Invaders.
We used their resources, watched their fighting style, and adapted it to our own.
Moreover, among my weapons, there are some that contain the energy of the Blue Knight.
Is it impossible for these kids to copy us?
Order and play.
Will it end with these two?
Of course not.
“There were casualties in Seoul too.”
I got a call.
This wasn’t just something that happened in front of me.
And these guys weren’t the only elite troops.
