Legions Grow On My Phone

168 Tue – Third Force (3)

“It is true that the number is lacking.”

Read from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

My face hardened when I saw Kang Do-yeon, unconscious and lying on the floor of the nest. I’ve been beaten up, too, and I know that death as defined by the right to kill is okay for us, but it’s still a bad feeling.

“Why? The plan you envisioned is now cruising smoothly.”

“It’s true that it’s still lacking. I think we need more troops.”

I shook my head at Eve’s words. I didn’t know if I had enough time, but surprisingly, I didn’t have much time.

Soon, the rebel coalition will attack Eve using its newly refined power. They must find their land. And among them, there are also a small number of demons from the Demon Realm.

So, assuming that Eve fights them at least on an equal footing, I thought I’d take a seat before they get more vigilant.

“But how? The reason you can’t use a large force like me is because of your lack of ability.”

“You just have to… find a way.”

It is impossible for human consciousness to repeat one thousand and ten thousand thoughts at the same time. So I had to find another way. Another way to command a large number of troops alone.

The problem was, what the hell was that method, and the root of it was that no matter how much I shook my head, an ordinary 24-year-old human male, I couldn’t come up with a sharp answer.

“It won’t be easy. Never.”

“That’s right. Because this requires something that goes beyond the limits.”

I frowned and squeezed my head. For once, it’s not enough for me. I thought it would be better to entrust the idea to someone who is better than me and has a sense of urgency.

A person who has a longing for something is easy to go beyond the limits. A person thirsty for evolution…I remembered someone at that moment and opened my eyes.

“He’s an important spy planted in the Alliance.”

“There’s one more. And in two days, we’ll be infiltrating the Alliance.”

Eve noticed what I was thinking and rubbed her mouth, but I persuaded her. At least, the logic that the League needed a spy was no longer necessary.

We have now volunteered to be dispatched to the Alliance’s planet in accordance with the agreement signed by the Alliance of Guardians.

“You’re really fighting yourself.”

Eve muttered as if it was ridiculous. As the saying goes, we, who were active as hunters of the Guardian Alliance on Earth, were sent to the frontier of the Alliance that we are now under attack.

The very frontier where Eve turned to land battle after being pushed back by the fortress-class ship Zakov. From our point of view, it’s funny.

“Then let’s go in, sir.”

“Do that.”

Inside the Alliance’s ship. After finishing the day’s work, Richard gathered the materials by himself and stood up.

“They said they were already ready to depart. They’ll warp here soon.”

“I’ve been living like this…”

A few people passed by, talking to him. Hearing their stories, he looked blankly forward.

‘Then they leave too. I don’t know what that means.’

Richard knew in advance the list of those leaving. The names of the two people on that list are also.

Those two were monsters. A monster whose identity cannot be determined. Richard had already considered them to be the native creatures of the Earth who had disappeared and lived as humans.

The fact that he took over and manipulated his own body didn’t matter to him. Another spy, Pires, was drying up and deteriorating day by day, but Richard only regretted not studying and examining the mysterious power further.

“..ummm?!”

right at that moment. Richard trembled with goosebumps all over his body. It meant that this familiar sensation, the monster that had taken over his body, had something to say.

‘Is natural conversation possible?’

“I’m going to my office now.”

Instead of getting nervous at the sound of the voice resounding in his brain, he smirked. He soon arrived at his office and locked the door.

“I’ve heard the news. We’ve left Earth, so we won’t be able to keep our communication going, will we?”

‘After all, you’re such a weird person. But rather good. That desire, that longing. Now, why don’t you just open it up properly instead of being a spy?’

At Richard’s words, Shin-Woo smiled bitterly, noticing that he was slightly excited by checking his body, which can be seen in every detail.

“My longing? You know what it is, and what number do you fill it with?”

‘Well. To be honest, I don’t know. So take a look Then you will know what kind of power you can get.’

“Ugh…”

Immediately after he finished speaking, he took a deep breath and sat back down on a chair. Without stopping there, he rolled his eyes and trembled and had a seizure.

Originally, the nanomachines in his body would have sounded an alarm, but now his body is full of corps cells acting out nanomachines.

‘What we are, you would never know.’

The scene Shinwoo showed directly to his brain was none other than the appearance of the army.

The appearance of covering the entire planet with the nest of the legion, the appearance of the hulls destroying the ships, the appearance of the legionary soldiers gathering black and covering the ground.

‘You always wanted to evolve. Do you intend to become truly one with us?’

CNU began to coax him slowly to completely embrace him. The seizures subsided and his eyes returned to normal, but he stared blankly at the ceiling.

“These terrifying monsters.”

Then, he smiled as if it was absurd.

“Of course. I do not deny that power.”

Laughing like a madman, Richard accepted the offer not long after.

‘Even if it’s an act of betrayal of humanity?’

“What does that matter? Even when only fragmentary information was delivered, I expected that you would become a bigger force. It is different now that I experienced it firsthand. You are an alliance and an alliance, and it was obvious that you would kill them all. You can’t stay on the other side.”

He was quick to judge. Shinwoo didn’t have to say that he would prevent that from happening.

‘Then I’ll tell you what to do.’

Shinwoo informed him of his purpose before transferring him to the corps. His eyes widened slightly when he said that he was entrusted with the command of numerous troops.

‘It won’t be easy either. Unlike beings who were born with a hive mind.’

“I don’t think it’s completely impossible.”

Even in the shocking process, Richard found his own answer at once.

“Of course, it’s impossible to make each one move like a living object, but if you can execute an action command stored in advance using a simple command, it can move. Like an automatic robot.”

‘My choice was the right one. Then try it somewhere.’

CNU gave him a chance, showing a deeper interest than expected. If his theory succeeded, it would mean that a subordinate existence of the Hivemind only to deal with the Legionnaires would be created.

Richard planned to escape from the ship on the spot. He was one of the key figures, and the strict escort was also a thorough watchdog, so it’s impossible to escape by normal means.

‘This is the moment for a real leap forward. Becoming a being with endless possibilities that you can’t know the end of.’

He was born elite. The entire life he lived was also a flawless elite, and he constantly used his talents for the Alliance and for his powers.

However, there were some shortcomings that I felt while working as a scientist in the Federation. The lack was quickly filled by coming to this earth and meeting with beings with various powers and forms, but it was still insufficient.

So when he was infected by Eve and glimpsed some of the Legion’s power. He was very excited to discover the power to completely fill his emptiness.

And finally, now the opportunity has come.

“Who… huh?”

The guard standing on the lookout looked back with a bewildered feeling, but there was no one by his side.

Richard, who forcibly hid by raising the infected cells in his body to the skin layer, passed the bewildered guard without seeing anything, and was able to easily attach a homemade bomb to the targeted area.

He was going to cause an explosion to lose his mind and avoid the body in the meantime.

‘The other side is also installed.’

CNU also installed explosives on the other side using another spy, Pires. There is absolutely no room for doubt. Because of this explosion, his room will be blown away cleanly, and he will be killed as it is.

“percussion.”

Richard, who came near the emergency exit, pressed the trigger button without hesitation.

At the same time, this huge ship shook. Emergency bells ringing relentlessly, screams of panicked people, etc.

Hearing that sound, Richard forcibly opened the emergency exit. What unfolds beneath that is not outer space, but the black air and the moonlight of the Pacific Ocean.

‘Throw your body. I’ll open a gate there.’

“Uh.. uh ha ha!”

He laughed like a madman, and eventually flew towards the sea thousands of meters below. If someone who didn’t know for sure saw it, they’d say it was the madness of a person trying to commit suicide.

“Ugh…”

He jumped into the air without a safety device, and fell without even opening his eyes properly, flapping his body helplessly.

But soon, cracks slowly began to form in the space small enough for one person to fit in the expected path of his fall.
