Legions Grow On My Phone

248 Tue-In Search of Meaning(8)

‘Something has changed. I have no choice but to think that way.’

It was the people who were fighting the legionnaires right now who could quickly notice Eve’s growth and change, and Ji Chang-hyeon was one of them.

He immediately noticed the puzzlement. Although the Legion avoided close combat and continued to fire from long-distance when fighting him, the Legionnaires were the same as Eve in the first place.

Because the momentum itself changed as a result of Eve’s change of thinking. The momentum of the Legionnaires, which was like burning anger, at some point changed like a smirked snake, humiliating and complicating their allies.

“Chief. They’re leaving.”

“…Didn’t you notice something strange?”

“Uh…it seems like he’s going to retreat a little easier this time. The people who were trying to kill me like crazy, it seems a little less now.”

He asked a colleague who was approaching him. My co-workers were also vaguely aware of this disparity.

However, he could not delve further into the matter. Even if Eve’s mind has changed, the war is going on without end, and the places that need his power are constantly increasing.

“Even if I force myself to take time, I will have to return to my original nature.”

“Bo, you mean nature?”

“It has been postponed until now, but it is still necessary to increase the power for the future. Because we do not know what will happen in the future.”

After pondering for a while, Ji Chang-hyun decided to return before going to another battlefield. As the situation took a turn for the worse, I thought that I should pass on my powers before anything unexpected happens.

“It is said that it is still in nature. Both.”

“Then I’ll go right away.”

Ji Chang-hyun confirmed the location of Eve and Shin-woo and immediately moved there.

Unaware of their identities even in his dreams, he intended to pass on his powers to the two people and raise them as heroes to succeed.

“If you teach me, I will learn well.”

And CNU, whom he met there, smiled bitterly and nodded his head.

“My powers are having a great effect on them, so please learn them well. The two will soon become the hope of mankind.”

“It is the hope of mankind…”

Eve heard Ji Chang-hyun’s words and snorted. It was a slightly different smile from when Ji Chang-hyun first said that he would pass on the technique to him.

At that time, it was a pure ridicule towards him who did not know his identity, but now it was not meant to be ridiculed.

“That’s right. If not me, someone else will save the humans.”

Rather, he laughed and liked it.

Eve, who is now free from all bridles, certainly did not intend to annihilate humans. Eve is the hive mind and the corps itself.

Being in charge of several planetary nests at the same time and being able to rule the entire universe if he wants to, he is also well aware of his own blind spots.

Eve was a being that imitated, copied, and learned.

Even though it has been through tremendous evolution and transcendence until now, it has not been a being that creates something on its own. Diversity and creativity that can suggest a new path can only be created when a lot of intellect and ego are gathered in the end.

He declared that he would eat everything, but in fact, it was just a word to stimulate Shinwoo, and even if he did, Eve now knows that it is not all about chewing, swallowing, disassembling, and analyzing.

Now that Eve realized what true growth and evolution was, she had no intention of being left alone in this universe.

Therefore, people, including humans, must remain who will grow and develop on their behalf. Because imitating and acquiring them was his food and his true growth.

Therefore, Eve went beyond the concept of simply ‘taking care’ and reached the contradictory concept of ‘protecting’ them while fighting to death.

“…Then I’ll start.”

Of course, Ji Chang-hyeon is completely unaware of these circumstances. So, in front of him is only a kid who has fallen into a sudden narcissism.

CNU, noticing the situation, poked Eve’s side, which had a high nose bridge, but Ji Chang-Hyeon didn’t bother to express it.

“I’m just asking you one thing.”

“..what?”

“If I die, can you really give your life to save people?”

The transfer of skills did not take long.

It was because the two hive minds had an exceptional strength in imitation and reproduction of other people’s skills due to the nature of the resonance method, which seemed to bring the characteristics of the corps.

All that was needed was a fierce battle.

Ji Chang-hyeon ignored Shin-woo’s sword that was thrust into his neck, thrust the sword into Eve’s neck beneath him, and looked down at his infinitely light, yet incomprehensible red eyes.

‘You’re young, but you’re not young. I want to hear the truth.’

It was kind of an intuition. Eve recognized this and smiled faintly.

“I protect human beings. As I didn’t know before, now I know their preciousness well. There is no perfect existence in this universe. There is no one who can… grow alone.”

“…I believe.”

Ji Chang-hyun judged Eve’s words to be sincere. Because the truth is right. Watching him get up slowly, Eve quietly wiped her mouth.

‘Are you going to make it a sub-mind? That would be impossible.’

‘I know. The toughest of any humans I’ve ever seen.’

Shin-woo, who raised Eve, spoke through a group ritual, and Eve also agreed and nodded.

‘There is no need to make it a sub-mind. After all, if I can move him to my will.’

Rather, I ate differently.

“See? These are our children.”

“…humanoid.”

“I thought that was the intersection between the two of us.”

Eden, the planet where the Legion first appeared. There, of course, there was the Legion’s nest in the basement.

However, Eve showed me that this place was definitely different from any ordinary nest.

“That’s why I raised them like human children.”

Eve murmured, lovingly stroking the little nest that resembled a human womb. Actually, my feelings were strange.

Those who are now growing up were neither a general species nor a superior species nor a special species. Literally a new type of unit. The purpose is to create and grow your own corps, like me.

“Who are there beyond the veil? There must be plenty to eat. These children are the arrangements for that time. Spread them all over the universe, create their own power and spread them out. Then beyond the veil, they will become our food. “

It wasn’t until Hivemind. To be honest, it was similar to Richard, a commanding entity that controls the corps with a set command.

“When will these kids start working?”

“When the veil is lifted. Until then, it’s still our time.”

She didn’t rush to work. But it didn’t stop either. At a time when the Alliance was temporarily empty to fight Kassaras, Eve expanded her nest one by one in other places to increase her power.

It was a pioneering act that had not been done in the past because it was ineffective. If it had been Eve in the past, it would have attacked either side first at this time in the first place.

Even if it takes more time, even if you risk inefficiencies, even if you don’t want to.

Eve, who had matured, was able to endure it all. And the end of that patience will eventually come back with explosive power.

“You look afraid that I will win. Then you expand too.”

“You’re tying up all my core?

It was ridiculous and I laughed out loud. Of course, the dispatched Raina recently completely occupied a planet and avenged the enemies of Yuna Oh and her unit, the Cheongsan tribe, but my expansion ability is very different from Eve.

“You can’t do that. You can’t stop me. If you lose… you’ll be completely eaten by me.”

“It’s a little less pure creepy like before.”

She grinned, revealing this, and clinged to it. Now, the monster’s body and the hard carapace collided with each other.

‘The battle between Kasaras and the Union must end. It’s pointless now.’

‘It goes back and forth and it’s too bad.’

‘I can’t help it. Things keep changing.’

There was nothing to say at Richard’s sigh. The reason I moved Cassaras to attack the Union was to help Eve’s experiment by turning the war into a three-way mess.

However, Eve, who grew up due to a trivial opportunity, changes her mind and tries to fight with all her might.

‘Raina. you should move right away Let’s attack their nature in order to recover the Kasarasu main force.’

I decided to move Reina. I already have information about their nature, so I can invade if I want.

“When the hell is it going to open? That veil.”

[I can’t tell you, but you guys are doing well enough. Even if something unexpected happens, we can win.]

After giving all orders. After returning to my human body, I complained openly. The message that came to my mind didn’t really help.

“Then… what about you? If you don’t need to repeat this anymore.”

A thought occurred to me and I asked. It’s a sensitive subject.

[This is the end of the game. Will the system be needed anymore? Now the ghosts of the past are gone, and you are the new order. That’s fair]

But he spoke calmly without any hesitation. I was slightly startled at the fact that the other Nine was disappearing, but I couldn’t refute the word “Sunli”.
