71 Tue – Monster of the Abyss (10)
“Are you sure he’s not looking?”
[Yes]
“Then it doesn’t matter.”
A gloomy communal corner. Here, the Legion identified the most important first.
In fact, CNU, who is talking with Chris and Cha Ji-yeon, was not looking at the screen.
Of course, there was a reason why he had to turn off the screen because he could watch everything on a screen that others couldn’t see.
“Uhhh…”
“Let’s talk a little more.”
The Legion grinned as he grabbed the man who was leaning against the wall next to him.
The prisoner couldn’t believe this situation, when a monster that had a shape similar to a human woman whispered to him with his eyes flashing under a mask.
The experience of interrogating prisoners was already abundant.
By spreading infectious bacteria throughout the body, he took control of the body and massaged the nervous system at will.
Pain is a method he has been using ever since he discovered that the sword was an effective tool to vomit the truth.
The excruciating pain that even a proud fairy could not endure for less than an hour, enough to bite her tongue at once.
“Tell me everything, down to the smallest detail.”
Even the language system was different, but that didn’t make any sense.
With just a few clues, the Legion quickly learned the human language, and the pace grew even faster.
“All.”
“Big heuk… …
It was because of this that Shinwoo did not see. Tired of this unimaginable agony, the victim trembled, half-conscious, and confessed everything he knew.
The corps memorized and memorized all the information.
Of course, I knew that cross-validation was necessary, but for now, I assumed that the information obtained this time was true and started the calculation.
‘It would be nice if we could analyze the brain and find out the information in it.’
It was not without regrets. In the first place, I was well aware that it was not a very advanced method to extract information through torture.
The current corps has the ability to perfectly replicate the subject’s brain cells, but it has not yet been possible to interpret the information contained therein.
Unlike language, where you can get clues by communicating with the outside world, brain cell analysis has nothing to reference at this level.
[therefore. Has the policy been set?
“Sure.”
In the end, the corps that had uncovered all the information raised its body.
At that moment, a faint glimmer of hope flashed in the eyes of the victim who was able to escape from this terrible pain.
“Ah… aah!”
But the infestation that was being controlled completely devoured the now useless victim, smashing his brain and utterly destroying his ego.
The struggle of the victim, who had been struggling with terrifying screams, stopped slowly.
At the end of the last drop of tears in their eyes, the victims who were completely encroached on by black veins became live meats as they are, and when the corps’ nests come here in the future, they will be digested as they are and will become nutrients.
‘Now that it’s over, let’s move, Commander.’
The corps ordered Kang Do-yeon, who was standing by wearing a mask, to move.
Now that he knew where he was and what kind of enemies he had to face, there was no reason to crouch.
‘I’ll eat them all.’
I have already finished the calculation. The corps decided to act immediately. Just now, movement was detected at the entrance.
“Hey Boris. Why aren’t you answering me!”
“They went out as a group, and they told me to report it before the shift…”
Just as the sun goes down outside the cave.
A group of wizards, ignorant of what happened here a few hours ago, entered the cave.
They came to take a shift and were now very angry. Originally, it was necessary to periodically report no abnormalities, because the existing workers did not contact even a single person first.
No matter how hard you work, there are basic rules that you can at least pretend to follow.
“…what.”
“Why is nobody there?”
But they floundered in embarrassment in the empty void where there was no one, not even the slightest pretender.
It’s been decades since this place was built.
Now, in such a secluded corner of the city, people who did not expect this kind of variable to happen, hurriedly checked the crystal balls.
But really, no one was here.
They don’t notice, but already countless eyes are watching them in real time.
“What… I’ve lost all connections with the golems.”
“It’s the same here. I think there’s something wrong.”
When they saw the crystal ball, they instinctively raised the tension.
The atmosphere changed in an instant. This cave, which used to be a boring and boring workplace with only desks, crystal balls, papers and books, has now regained the gloom and gloom of the past.
The sound of water dripping from the oil pipe was particularly loud.
“Hey rookie. Go to HQ right now and report it. We’re going to have to investigate. Damn, I’m just ignoring the rules and just getting a communicator.”
Among them, a middle-aged sorcerer with opposite hair, who looked like an old-timer, gave the command to the young man with a slightly trembling voice.
As if he had been treated frequently as usual, the man nodded his head at the serious voice and hurriedly turned around.
“uh..?”
“You can’t go out.”
But the moment the man ran to the entrance. Someone who didn’t know when he appeared was blocking his way.
With her slender and voluminous body covered in black armor, the existence that had turned against the bluishness of the now completely dark early evening, had dark black hair hanging down to her sacrum, and the red eyes glowing inside the mask.
“what…”
“You idiot! Bow down!”
While the man facing the corps was bewildered. The old man who had ordered him quickly grasped the situation, and at once summoned an ice awl and blew it away.
However, the ice pick was blocked by a dark red, translucent barrier that suddenly appeared.
For a moment, everyone fell into silence. Meanwhile, the Legion raised a finger and pointed at them.
‘Kill it.’
An order was issued to the legionaries who were waiting.
Airborne legionnaires waiting on the stairs just below began to spurt out like water pouring from a dam with an open sluice gate.
“Ugh, ahhh!”
“Shield! Now!”
Frightened by the attacking giant flying beasts, some wizards could not respond and fell on the spot, spraying blood with sharp claws and poison stings.
As long as he had decided to kill them all anyway, there was no need to infect them.
Some survivors gathered in a hurry to stand in a corner, spread a shield, and fire various magic to fight the legionaries.
‘The staff of the Labyrinth Management Office, mostly low-level wizards.’
However, the reaction of the Legion, which they already knew from the information that interrogated the prisoners for their identities and the magic they displayed, was bittersweet.
Of course, I was interested in the new way of dealing with the power of form, but in my opinion, it was not worth learning at that level.
“Too many…”
“help me!”
They were completely covered with flying bells and struggled against the black monsters that filled their eyes in a single layer of shield.
But the shield is not infinite. There is no one who can help them.

Moreover, the ferocity of the monsters in front of them was different from those of ordinary beasts.Countless monsters that do not see humans as prey, but set themselves as targets to be thoroughly killed and rush to do just that.
The wizards noticed the serious murderous intent and fell into a panic, and the more anxious and shaken mentally, the thinner the shield they deployed with their spells, and gradually began to crack.
‘Society, and the city.’
The Legion was already thinking about the next plan, seeing them brutally torn to death without being able to maintain the shield in the end.
According to the information we obtained, it was said that among the humans in this world, there are those who are incomparably stronger than these lesser wizards.
With their strength, it seemed worth learning.
[It takes some time to nest]
“I do not care.”
The corps first built a nest on the 100th floor here.
Legionaries resembling giant toads vomited the sticky mucus they had stored in their stomachs, and from the mucus, flesh walls and tentacles began to grow and cover the ground.
Since the nest had not yet swallowed the entire 70th floor, deep underground, all they had to do was create a connection to share nutrients in the main nest and create a means to digest and supply nutrients to the troops here.
“There is a lot of food. Eat them all and increase the size.”
The corps standing at the entrance of the cave showed their arms outstretched.
The forest that spreads out far away, the animals and plants that live there, and a fairly large city in the distance.
There was never enough food. It is different from a labyrinth of only stones, stones, and stones.
All of this unfolding now could be his energy.
The Legion came out of the cave, which had only been made of rocks, and set foot on the soft soil with weeds sprouting out of it.
It was the feet of a wild monster with sharp claws, but it was enough to feel it.
The corps, who knelt down on one knee and wiped the soil with their hands, then grinned.
An ant, fearlessly riding on its hand, climbed on it and sneered.
