My Children Swarm the Cosmos – Chapter 60.2

They thrashed around, trying to shake off the liquid that had gotten on their bodies, like someone who had been doused with sulfuric acid. Then, the stealth humanoids seemed to realize that it was impossible to shake off the liquid that had gotten on their bodies, and they rushed toward Addmoon to kill him, even though their armor was melting.

Of course, the Elite squad couldn’t just stand by and watch. The stealth humanoid squad that Addmoon had dealt a fatal blow to was completely wiped out by the Elite squad that had learned their lesson.

➖Finally, those pesky guys are taken care of.

‘Equillocke. Keep an eye on this colony.’

➖What was that Xenotera-like liquid just now? You have impressive fighting skills.

The fallen stealth humanoids were clearly wearing new material armor, but it was now completely corroded and blackened. And the black liquid was still bubbling and boiling, emitting smoke as if it hadn’t completely evaporated yet.

‘It’s a compound that removes electrons. It destroys the solid molecular structure of the new material armor and rapidly burns the artificial particles.’

➖That’s an amazing substance. It would be great if we could apply it to the Xenotera in the colony. It would be fun to watch the guys who step on the Xenotera melt from the soles of their feet.

‘That’s not going to happen.’

Thud!

Addmoon dropped the living weapon he was holding to the ground. Then, the weapon that had fallen to the ground instantly shattered and began to boil.

‘That liquid is not based on cells, but a kind of heavy matter. So it doesn’t distinguish between friend and foe.’

➖That’s too bad. But we can still weaponize it.

‘I guess it would be okay to modify the sprayer I just threw away and give it to guys like the Elites.’

➖That’s right.

The Elite squad was cutting off the arms and legs of the fallen humanoids. Addmoon passed by the Elite squad and approached the giant brain of the dead leader.

The brain hanging from the ceiling was bleeding from the electrodes connected to the cables. It was already a dead brain, but just looking at it made him feel uncomfortable.

The humanoid connected to the brain by the electrodes inserted into it was still operational. Though it was almost corroded and broken.

‘This is the guy the stealth humanoids were trying to protect.’

Addmoon kicked the humanoid.

“What were you doing here?”

” . . . “

Tick.

The humanoid simply powered off. It was meaningless to ask something to a machine.

In that case, the hint to what these humanoids were doing might be in that brain.

Addmoon reached out to the dead brain. He sent a weak electric current with his fingertips. Even though he could not read the information contained in the brain like Kreion or Anima, he could figure out the brain’s activity itself.

That’s when Addmoon felt it reflexively.

‘Equillocke!’

➖What is it?

‘This guy is still alive!’

➖Are you sure?

‘Wait a minute, isn’t it alive?’

Addmoon closed his eyes and concentrated on the electric flow.

Some part of the brain was awake, but the leader’s unique ego or consciousness did not feel dead. However, this brain was definitely functioning as a nerve organ of a living being.

‘Vegetative state. . . ? Zombie. . . ? How do I explain this. . . ?’

➖I can’t detect the leader’s wave. Are you sure it’s alive?

‘No. It’s a little different. This is. . . .’

Addmoon felt the brain.

‘The mind is dead, but some areas of the brain are activated. I don’t know about this because it’s not a human brain. . . .’

Crack!!!

Just then, someone behind Addmoon stabbed him in the back with a cutter.

“Keuk. . . !”

An Elite had stabbed Addmoon in the back with a cutter.

Thwack!

The other Elites immediately sprang into action and killed the Elite who had shown strange behavior.

“Ugh. . . ! What, what?! What was that guy just now?!”

Then, Equillocke reported urgent news.

➖Addmoon! The swarm of satellites over there is going berserk!

A dangerous atmosphere filled the air.

These were the Elite squads that were clearly enraged by each other’s deaths and shared their own minds just a moment ago.

“Snap out of it! You guys are comrades!”

Grrrrrr. . . !

The Elites were wary of each other. They growled as if they would kill each other if the other moved even a little.

➖The children in that area are out of my control! They’re killing each other!

‘Why are they fighting each other when they’re ignoring the MDD?!’

➖The colony is in chaos! The MDD’s rapid deployment force is taking advantage of this to expand their front lines!

‘What about the fleet?!’

➖The flying children too! All the beings in that satellite area are going berserk!

And Equillocke showed visual information through the eyes of Fly and Cresecter.

The Chimeraz fleet, which had been fighting a favorable fleet battle, was fighting among themselves, and the enemy ships, which had been cornered, were taking this opportunity to escape.

The Chimeraz army, which had been fighting a disadvantageous ground battle, had forgotten all about strategy and tactics and was engaged in fratricide like wild Chimeraz. The MDD’s machine army had already broken through the front lines to a distance where they could directly hit the colony.

It was truly a horrific sight.

Hounz tearing each other apart, Kabana biting, chewing, and trampling on each other, Tritula shooting bone spikes everywhere, Cust eating the ovipositor it had laid, Cresecter fighting each other in the air, and Skeletunnel digesting the swarm in its body at will.

Koo-goo-goong. . . !

In the midst of all this, the MDD’s anti-gravity stealth tank battalion bombarded the colony.

The Elite individuals with Addmoon were suppressing their rampage.

‘Then. . . .’

Addmoon twisted his body instinctively.

He reached out with both hands toward the giant brain hanging from the ceiling.

‘This thing. . . !’

At the same time, several Elites rushed toward Addmoon from behind, and several other Elites attacked the rampaging Elites.

“Grrrrrr. . . !”

Crackle!

Addmoon synthesized the black liquid directly from his body and sprayed it from his palms.

As the giant brain melted from the black liquid, Addmoon’s insides slowly melted as well.

➖Addmoon-nim?

Grrrrrr. . . !

The brain, which had become like heated jelly, melted and fell off.

“Ugh. . . ! Groan. . . .”

Addmoon fell to the ground, supporting himself with both arms.

‘Are they still going berserk?’

➖It seems that the children’s brains are damaged and they have lost the concept of waves. They don’t listen to me.

➖Even so, it seems that the aggression that was directed only at their own kind has changed to aggression toward everything. The rampaging children now make no distinction between their own kind and the MDD.

The situation was better than before.

➖I will give up the fleet battle on the other satellites and send support to the colony satellite where Addmoon-nim is.

‘No need.’

➖. . .No. I will send support.

‘Don’t give up another battlefield just because of me. I’ll handle this with my own power. I can do it too.’

Thud! Flutter. . . !

Addmoon insisted on this, but his melted abdomen was spilling his entrails.

➖Can you fight in that condition?

His vision was white from the severe bleeding, and his whole body was trembling as if it was going to fall apart. The balance of his body’s weight was so bad that he couldn’t even stand up. Now that his lungs were melting too, his breathing was getting harder and harder. It was a strange feeling that when he inhaled, air entered from the bottom of his chest, and when he exhaled, the air came out through his abdomen through his chest.

So Addmoon answered.

‘I’ll do it while I’m in this condition.’

Equillocke, who had been silent for a moment, must have reassessed Addmoon.

➖. . .If you insist, then I understand. I hope you survive.

Addmoon’s palms were fused with the fleshy floor. He had already made up his mind. Now is the time to show something, to overcome his long-standing fear.

‘I didn’t want to be in this situation from the first battle. . . . ‘

🔷🔷🔷

The mechanical army on the battlefield witnessed something far away at the same time.

The tall and large colony was collapsing from the inside.

And something woke up from the colony’s grave.

It was two legs.

It was two arms.

It was one head.

Its angry roar echoed throughout the battlefield.

➖Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!

It was a giant about 50m tall.

It was a giant that moved by crawling on the ground with both arms, and spewed boiling black liquid from its throat like a tsunami.

➖Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

The giant trampled on the colony and the front lines, melting everything black.

➖Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

At that time, the giant’s roar was more like a cry of pain than fear, and it was so sad.
