Captain wakes up 100,000 year later

How dark could the city be?

It seemed impossible to survive in this city unless you are a familiar creature in the dark. At least the tube containing red lava was flowing through the city like a metropolitan canal, so I could barely understand the contours of things.

A gigantic, unknown piece of heavy equipment was spinning like a gill from afar, and a strange smell and silence was concealed.

"A world no man has ever stepped on."

The Khan bends at his waist with all his might to dry himself from grasping at the ground. I was concerned that the entire operation would be compromised if there was even a hint of something strange.

Samir is nervous, too. He has been to the city of Soulless before, though he has been to the caves, dungeons and forests of beasts. Crassus grows tired, not forgetting his figments.

"I've heard that Black Dragons live in places like this. We don't have a lot of connections with our families, but I can smell them faintly in the air."

"Don't you worry about getting caught, Crassus? They can smell you, too."

Crassus grins.

"Thanks to you, my body is a lump of iron. At best, it'll smell like a weapon."

The captain nods. An army of Black Elves stumbles upon the Starfish. A starfish crashes across the wharf, and the officers of the Black Elves salute you handsomely.

She was wearing red brown armor, and her waist was full of awesomeness. Behind her are a line of male warriors armed with spears and armor.

"Lady Barsdeman! Welcome. I was told you were attacked, but I didn't expect you to take the Salamander Starfish yourself. Where are you hurt?"

"Shut up! You little bitch! Are you making fun of my failure? Escort them to the Vatican City Hall immediately! Bring me Bilcho, who messed things up!"

"Poetry, my lady!"

The captain speaks in a sentence that comes to mind in the visor and walks forward ahead of her. She shudders behind the captain's back.

Tyrant simulated this scene several times in the dream of the maid Valdez. In contrast to her memory, the imaginary encounters threatened her maid with a 97.8% chance to poison and torture a man named Bilcho.

"My Lady! Forgive me!"

She chased after me and said earnestly.

"Shut up. Go first and gather everyone from the palace!" I will personally cover up the spy! "

"Yes, my lady!"

The spider carriage she has prepared lies in front of the road. Twenty knights disembarked with the captain boarded a vehicle on the back of a giant spider. Spiders run fast through the city.

The wharf, which is mysterious in a giant lava pit, quickly drifts away from all sorts of magical creatures. The Spider Wagon is a market hidden in the dark, and it runs quickly over a black hole inhabited by the soulless, and over a market where demons with enormous eyes trade for survivors.

"This is a hell of an imagination. What's traded there is the human soul. Or the living."

"You'll need a 'human' to answer the screams. The Earth Alliance program will not respond to requests for rescue of non-human beings."

Khan whispers to the captain. Beneath the highway where the spiders run, the market for demons trading jewelry with souls is open, and there are living humans trading in wrapped paper.

Strange eyes and mouths were tied to strapping tentacles by the screaming, soulless people.

"Besides, can you hear me? Screaming is getting closer and closer."

The mansion was a kind of embassy, so it was located in the center of the town of Proslogion. And all around it, there were these sort of embassy buildings.

The house of the Black Elves, the house of the Salamanders, and the nest of the Soulless. The power of various factions around the world was gathered here.

"Hey, Obelisk."

In the center of the square was a huge obelisk and high enough to reach the ceiling of the world. A deep ridge is formed around Obelisk, and people are trapped beneath the ridge.

An infrared sensor captured the shape and projected onto the helmet screen.

Obelisk was an assembled building and built into a small room for one person to enter. The walls of sharp thorns tighten from all sides, stabbing those trapped inside with sharp needles at all times.

They screamed horribly, and the dimensional core fed the structural energy. Those trapped at the top are the longest, narrowest of all, with blood and oil spilling down the Obelisk little by little and without rest.

"What a pervert. But I have to say, it's sophisticated when it comes to disposing of corpses. You mean to squeeze the juice made by pressing a person into a person again?"

Indeed, the 'juice of man' flowed down and was being provided as food to others. Samir turns around and looks pale inside the wagon.

"Your Grace, as a knight, I can't even imagine something like this. How can there be a world like this? Everything here makes me unbearable."

He wants to wash with his bare hands, but his face is covered with a hard helmet.

"It's really terrible. Rumor has it, I had no idea this was actually going to happen. You can't do this to livestock. Can you do this?"

The captain was aware of the factory livestock system on Earth in the middle of the 21st century, and was unable to say a word against Hazoyeon in Khan.

Even worse, man has done to livestock as much as he can. For example, the newborn chick males were worthless to be sharpened and fed immediately.

But that doesn't mean the captain can't feel pain. The pain in the heart of this reality was more terrible than the wounds on my arms.

"I hope I can get it soon. Gosh · · I can't believe the world changed like this while I was gone. I can't believe we're ruining Alpha Zeta like this."

Then Tyrant said,

[Captain, we are continuing to hear massive emergency protocol throughout Obelisk.]

"Yes. I can hear screams in my ears. I don't know how those monsters can live with themselves in this commotion."

[Yes, sir. There are over 18,000 people trapped in there. But I have a really important report. The powerful energy of the dimensional core is concentrated around it. Look, Captain. There's the avatar of energy.]

"Avatar?"

According to Tyrant, the captain looks around. A massive armor containing a massive energy spirit stands guard over Obelisk's four defenses. The armor was made of black meteor stones, but the powerful spirit of fire was burning inside it. The lightning was raging around the armor and the color was cream.

"White flame! It's as hot as the sun."

The concentrated force was dressed in the shape of a giant man, with a creamy whirlpool on its legs and a shield and sword of light and fire in both arms.

"Oh, Captain. Look at that.I 've never seen such a powerful spirit. These monsters aren't worth it. Honestly, I don't know if I can handle one on my own."

Even Krasus couldn't resist admiration. I've never seen Krasus so weak. Kan and Samir cry out in the weakness of the silver dragon they once believed in. Without even knowing their minds, the huge fires and armor of lightning were looking around with very strict eyes.

[Captain, as you know, the power of animosity is in power. They are receiving energy directly from the dimensional core. The weapons we carry here won't even cut through their shields. The same is true of the nuclear weapons you have.]

Just as Luna dealt with the Spirit Monarch with nuclear power, they were also using the power of the Dimensional Core to bypass it.

"I thought Luna had come up with a good idea when she was making a spiritual monarch, but the Catarians 009 have been using this method for some time now. Okay. We can't occupy Obelisk head-on, so we need to finish the race quickly. You're not worried about getting ready for electronic warfare, are you?"

[Certainly, Captain. I am the main AI of the warship. It's not just the electronic warfare against a terraforming machine. And this time, thanks to my lessons in the fight against 004, I have also prepared a special virus for electronic use.]

I was glad to hear that. The captain nods. The wagon has now run for a high price and entered the public square and headed for the mansion in Varsdeman.

"What are the specific objectives of this contest?"

[If this is what the Black Elves have in mind, I think they'll give you some test titles. The details are different every year, so the maids don't know.]

"I'm sure he's talking about the accident that happened during the exam."

[Assassination, kidnapping. Poison poisoning, anything is possible. It's almost like a small war.]

Krasus snorts.

"What a nuisance! Shouldn't we all go in the direction of assassination, Captain?"

"Yes, Krasus. I completely agree with you on this one."

The captain nodded.

The splendor of their arrival was unmatched by any royal palace on the face of the earth. The pleasure itself seemed to be in the air. But there was no one there, because the officers who met the captain had gathered all the officials in one place.

As the captain arrives, he opens the door and marches out on his own, the officer sprints out, grabbing his crotch and praying earnestly.

"My Lady! Lady Barsdeman! I'm innocent. I'm just defending the palace! All I heard was that the maid was coming to Proslogion, and no one knew which route to use! Send us to the battlefield! I will kill my enemies and avenge them!"

The captain noticed that when she spoke, she said, "I," not "we." It may be that there are spies in them, but it was by the river that they were never themselves. For them, this would have been the appropriate phrase. The captain is furious with pretending to be his servant.

"Shut up! You saved them all, right? If anyone escapes, I will send you to Obelisk for tribute!"

The captain is still responding as per the visor screen. She calls and shakes her head.

"What kind of security would you take? I've collected them all. Please, don't send me to Obelisk!"

"Ow!"

The captain kicks her tongue (as written) and punches her shin. As she falls forward, the captain nods at his men. The knights grab her arm by the right and throw her into the room. The officer flies through the door and falls to the ground. The sound of the rumbling decreased in an instant.

The captain looks up and the door is sealed tightly. Inside, all the highly-ranked women, even the lowly male workers, were gathered in the same room, and the captain had a statue to speak of. The captain has gone up to the top. Counting the number of eggs, it was approximately fifty people.

"Listen, you fools! I've heard that there are spies among you! You were attacked on your way by disgusting reptiles. Are we all here? Has anyone escaped? If any of you escapes, I will pay tribute to Obelisk!"

I was embarrassed by the sound of this disgraceful voice that the captain himself made. How frightened would the listeners be? They huddle, trembling.

"My Lady! Everyone's here!"

"Have mercy!"

Without a word, the captain nods.

"All right. Close your eyes!"

Would you tell them to close their eyes and raise their hands if they were not in a young classroom? While everyone closed their eyes and felt unhappy with this incomprehensible command, the sleeping gas naturally spread in the air. Those with weak tolerance have fallen first.

The captain has ordered Tyrant.

"Not a bad start. We'll take out the spy and reverse engineer it. Tyrant to get ready."

[Yes, sir.]

"Always the best strategy is internal incitement. Let's see how well this city is prepared for information."
