＜Infinite Dendrogram＞

□ [Armored Pilot] Hugo Receps

When we got to the scene where we heard screams, it was a crucible of confusion.

As Tian's people flee, numerous < masters > become dust of light as they battle something.

Something is running around the perimeter at a rate that is even difficult to see in my AGI.

That appearance appeared in my eyes the moment she (...) double-crossed one < master > from her head with an axe in her hand.

The girl dyed red with blood as her hair and face returned, wearing clothes that no longer knew the original color.

Your face is different.

But there was a strong certainty in me that she was the one I met at the cafe.

"[Murder Princess]. I see. I've never seen it before, but it's a big deal. I am also convinced that it is the same clan as that [vessel god].... blatantly rampant but beating each and every one to death. Unlike him, he doesn't seem to be a wide area exterminator."

"Hugo, what are you going to do?

Persepone whining about something while looking at that kid and Cuco asking my will.

I know what Cuco wants to hear.

What will I do myself in this situation?

…………

My master has instructed me to take control at the Hell Gate.

I still had some hesitation about using it against young girls, but the misery just expands as it is.

Besides, I thought I myself had to stop her...... [Murder Princess] Emily.

"Let's... Cuco!

"Lager."

Immediately release [White Rose] from the item box.

In the middle of the street of Bazaar, a pure white < Magingear > appears.

To the sight, the surrounding gaze gathers here.

Regardless, [Murder Princess] Emily's gaze as well.

…………

In that gaze, I get in [White Rose].

It only takes a few seconds to board, but those few seconds are too long for someone with supersonic manoeuvres.

Her eyes capture me with her hands on the edge of the cockpit.

That was a very quiet eye.

Saying he was in the middle of a killing, he looked at this one as if it were a shaken lake.

- Kill me.

She has plenty of time to do that before I get in.

I'm hallucinating her blade,

…………

- But she didn't attack me.

You missed me trying to get on.

As if to say that I am not the enemy (...) but.

Off my gaze, again [Murder Princess] Emily disappeared from my sight by hypersonic manoeuvre.

In the meantime, I was on [White Rose].

"Cuco!"

In response to my voice, Cuco integrates with [White Rose] and becomes ice armor.

And

"La Porte (de) Gate (l 'enfer)"!! "

Immediately after the merger of Cuco and [White Rose] is complete, Hellgate is activated.

Hellgate has a '% chance to [freeze] % of body homicides' skill.

The timing of the determination is every thirteen seconds and when the skill is activated.

Therefore, if more than 100 people had been killed, the whole body would be [frozen] at the same time as the activation.

Like when activated against dozens of < masters > in that Gideon.

"Ugh, wow...!

"What is this... [Murder Princess] skill?

Indiscriminate activation that does not target because we could not afford to sort the target this time.

As a result, a large number of [frozen] parts of the body and the entire body were surrounded.

But they're not the problem.

"... what happened!

I didn't grasp her position, which was moving at supersonic speed.

So where is she who [froze]... I haven't even been able to see if she [froze] in the first place.

I know the performance of Hellgate.

It is also used against skilled opponents in the Battle of Gideon.

I've also tested my sister for activation.

However, I have never used a combat-type Super against an opponent.

If it doesn't work for reasons such as the difference in output, I don't have the power to stop her.

searching for her with such impatience,

"Oh, hey! [Murder Princess] but... it's freezing!

Point the [White Rose] camera eye at the place where you heard such a voice.

There, one girl kept the axe in her hand - turning it into an ice statue.

■ Commercial city Cortana

[Murder Princess] Emily was [frozen] by Hellgate and completely disabled.

That was a coincidence.

Originally, Hugo would have been killed before he got on board.

If it was an enemy, Emily in automatic killing mode runs for immediate killing.

But Hugo... was talking to Emily before he went into automatic killing mode.

I was talking to my usual Emily, albeit for a short time at the cafe.

Emily remembered the time.

We had a good conversation and recognized Hugo as an ally (...).

Even in the vortex of automatic killing mode, to the extent that it is judged to be "not the enemy".

Auto Kill mode significantly lowers the hurdle to certify a stranger as an enemy, but not to the one that regular Emily recognizes as an ally.

Thus, Hugo was not inhibited from boarding the [White Rose], nor was he seen to activate his skills.

The result was this Giant Killing.

It was a great surprise to those around them.

to many < masters > who were engaged with Emily.

And to Zhang Funeral Qi, Emily's only true ally in this city.

◆

"... what,?

Zhang watched as Emily [froze] through the sight of the bird Johnsy, who had left it for surveillance.

When Hellgate was activated, Zhang was not beside Emily.

At the time Emily's “chain” began, it was in line with instructions from Rascal: 'Worst of all, I just need to leave you at the iron fire and make sure you're safe before you pick it up'.

That's more of a form of obedience than a retention order.

circumstances and Emily's rampage that < super > would muster.

In order to carry out the first priority, "Survival of Zhang", and the second priority, "Collection of data", under those anomalies, they had been evacuated.

Fortunately, I didn't have to [freeze] Zhang, who was outside the Hell Gate's sphere of effect.

If he were within range, his whole body would have [frozen] in an instant, just like Emily.

But there is no fine dust in his mind such as' helped '.

(Emily had that much power in an instant... This is if we don't rescue Emily. Mr. Rascal said oh, but... in this situation, you have to stand up for me, but rescue that kid.)

"I guess it was unexpected for any of us, even Mr. Rascal, that Emily with that much power would be rendered powerless," Zhang thought.

Will it be crushed or tied up as it is [frozen]?

In any case, Emily's future will go to "prison”.

That's all he has to avoid, and Zhang rushes under Emily.

But...

"... ugh!

When I stepped into the expansion range of Hell Gate, judgment occurred just every thirteen seconds, and Zhang's right foot [froze] when I stepped in.

I would have been fortunate to be unhappy because my whole body would have [frozen] if I had been a few more seconds late.

"I don't know the principle... but do you mean I can't go in..."

However, I have already confirmed with Kyonsie for surveillance that Kyonsie will not [freeze].

I immediately assumed that if Kyonsey could approach Emily and recapture her as well.

"[Dragworm Kyonsie] Launch!... but in time?

Called from outside the city and made him head as he dived through the ground, but [Dragworm Kyonsie] is not a fast-paced monster.

could rescue Emily by the time she was crushed, or that time limit stirred Zhang's impatience.

But if it wasn't Zhang who was on this occasion, it was Rascal... he wouldn't have rushed the shards either.

It would have continued to collect data without sending out reinforcements.

"But no matter what - the last person standing is Emily."

"The result will never change."

Only an hour ago, Rascal had said those words.

The rationale for this word is not the enormous status Emily gained by [Murder Princess] 's "Corpse Mountain Blood River" - etc. (...).

Her, [Murder Princess] Emily's true value is - there's more.

◇ ◇ ◇

□ [Armored Pilot] Hugo Receps

"Hell Gate... Disarm"

"Yeah."

Upon my instruction, Cuco will disarm the Hell Gate.

At the same time, I thawed [frozen] other than that kid.

"... oh, back"

"Is that the skill of the guy on it? Wow, I stopped [Murder Princess]."

"This freezing skill, like I've seen it somewhere..."

I hear voices like that from all around me, but I'm not the place to be right now.

Connect your reading in [Telepathic Cuffs] to your master.

[Master, can you come here now?

[Yes, sir. You ran into [Murder Princess], didn't you?

[Yes.... powerless in Hellgate]

[Do it.]

I found out why my master would have whistled even though it was a reading.

[... What can I do?

[Just wait. Oh, but [Murder Princess] must have only had company, so watch out for that raid over there]

True, that kid was with a guardian-like man at the cafe.

If he's one of those kids, I don't think he's gonna look past this situation.

[Okay]

[Well, we'll talk about this one and we'll head that way, so just wait a little longer.]

That's what the master said, cut the reading.

Talking to you must mean with [Pluto] Benetnache.

"Persephone. Your < master > is…?

I searched for Persepone, Benetnache's < Embrio >, but her figure had disappeared.

She said she was incapable of fighting, she seemed to have dispersed somewhere at some point.

... Can I talk about her now?

"Cuco, perimeter alert. Because his companion might come to recapture '

"Lager."

Until the Master arrives, vigilance must continue.

When I thought so and looked around, [White Rose] had gathered some < Master >.

One of them, Mohican's < Master >, talks to me.

"Thanks for the help. You froze him, didn't you?

Ask for [White Rose].

And I try to answer it like a Hugo by trying to be verbal.

"My Embrio skills. For a while, it will remain [frozen] '

"Right.... should I crush it within the moment?

'... no. My people will be here soon. It's AR I CA.

"" Ethereal Princess ”... Then maybe it's cheaper to wait. If you try to crush it, [life-saving brooch] activates it, [freezes] it will be difficult for you to lift it and revive it."

... Was it possible?

What happens if there is a [Brooch] that prevents fatal damage after doing enough damage to crush the ice. I didn't verify that.

'... just in case, be vigilant so you can use your skills again'

"Well, that helps. Thanks to you... I haven't even introduced myself yet. I'm Mohican Rock, head office."

... Oh, yeah.

"Is it someone from that clan because it's Mohican? 'I kind of thought so.

For some reason, there are branches in every country, that clan....... We also do it for drife.

"I'm Hugo Receps.... now free, but formerly belonged to the Triangle of Wisdom

"Oh, I knew it. I've never seen it before. That's why I thought it might be."

'Right.... Yes, I want to tell you one thing. [Murder Princess] Emily has company and may come to recapture her. Could you help us with perimeter alert?

"Sure, okay. Leave it to me."

That's how Mr. Locke calls out to the < master > gathered around him, and they begin to be vigilant around him while holding the scene for the [frozen] child.

"Everyone I've just spoken to is a member of our clan. Oh, I'm hiding the Mohicans under all circumstances."

... What would it be to hide a Mohican?

"Speaking of which, how could a member of" Princess Ethereal Singing "… be in this Cortana? Could it be mayoral entanglement?

'I can't tell you... why not?

It's actually mayoral entanglement, but I can't tell you that.

However, I was curious as to why Mr. Locke had asked such a thing.

"No, I was wondering if we could work together if the mayor's wrongdoing involved. Then the chancellor's side."

"We were investigating Mayor Douglas Coyne at the request of the Cardina Justice Department. He's been doing pretty nasty things, but he hasn't had any evidence before. But the other day, a piece of paper was posted to the Justice Department with a few details of the crime. We were in this Cortana to back it up.... Well, the merchant who stuck around saying he had something to do with the mayor was killed by [Murder Princess]"

Apparently, the mayor of this city dyed his hands a lot on the dark behind besides the bead cover.

... and hiding the Mohicans to do a background check?

Well, if Mohican's < master > had a bunch of people together, that would be remarkable.

Note that when asked on top of each other, only Mr. Locke, the leader, maintained the Mohican.

... It looks like Mr. Rock should hide it, too.

'As for this one... at least not on the mayor's side, so we might be able to cooperate. Master...... I also need to consult with AR-I CA.'

"Oh well. That'll help."

'By the way, who the hell put out that submission...?

"Oh, that's our husband"

Talking to Mr. Rock, Persephone, who was approaching me at some point, pinched the words.... I didn't notice at all.

"Persepone, Hugo was" too tiny to notice, "because"

"Grunt......, is this body still too small......!

Persepone moaned with regret holding his head.

I didn't even mean it that way...... I guess it was the camera blind spot.

'I didn't see you, but where have you been?

"A little retrieval."

Recovery?

"So, young lady, is it someone you know who made the submission?

"Hmm. It's my [master], [Pluto] Benetnache"

In response to Mr Rock's question, Persepone replied lightly.

"[Pluto]... come on, what's going on with this city when < Super > gets all three of us together?... I guess we should have had Director Omega come too"

Mr. Rock is whining about something a little disturbing. Mr. Omega must have been the owner of the Mohican League... but I don't think we can finally clear up the mess when we get together any more.

Well, put that aside and ask Persepone a question.

"Why, [Pluto] Benetnache put in a submission?

"Oh, as the Lord knows, my husband sees ghosts. He was listening to ghosts before he earned the beads and helping the mayor uncover his crimes as a consideration for his cooperation."

... I see.

"By the way, I used that information to blackmail the mayor." If you don't want Cardina Congress to rose about this, Pearl Pleas, "in the wind."

"... that? But now we're done..."

"That's why it was the Justice Department that posted, and I haven't told Congress (...) yet. Would it be?"

... Oh, my sister does it sometimes too 'I'm not lying to you. You're lying!' This is the art of circumventing the verdict of authenticity.

This means that it had already been established that the mayor's crimes would be uncovered, not long before he gave them the beads. [Pluto] Benetnache also has a good character inside.

"To see the resentment of this city, that mayor has come too far. Which way, it wouldn't have been long. The rest of his life will be spent in prison.... if I have the rest of my life."

Persepone said so, looking in the direction of the mayor's residence.

"Well, it's time for your lord's companion and husband... not good enough"

Persephone said so, pointing his gaze at the [frozen] [murdering princess].

Immediately thereafter,

From the inside of the ice statue - two axes flew.

"Nah!?"

The two axes swirl around as they cut off the heads of the two < MASTER > who were in orbit.

"It's from the Arms system!

"Chip! Even if the person stays frozen, you can only move with your weapon!

If you look, both hands of the ice statue are shattered.

I guess that's the price I paid for moving to fly the axe.

But the two axes flew without even leaving the Lord wounded,

'... Huh?

[Frozen] clashed at herself - crushed to pieces of wood dust (...).

Fragments of crushed ice sparkled in the sun.

Some of them do mix the dust of light when the < master > becomes a death penalty.

[Murder Princess] Emily had... been a death penalty with her own < Embrio >.

"Ji, suicide...?

"You mean better than us knocking you down. Plus, if there's a death penalty for all HP losses from self-inflicted injuries, there are fewer items to drop than there are death penalties for self-inflicted systems."

That child's body after resuscitable time is dust of light, and when this happens, he will not be resuscitated.

".................. no"

I wasn't thinking about this settlement.

Because it's like pushing a young girl into suicide, albeit inside < Infinite Dendrogram >... she'll wake up worse tomorrow.

... but this solved the disturbance itself.

This is how the encounter and battle with [Murder Princess] settled

"Negative (...)"

- It should have been.

Shortly after I heard voices from somewhere, I heard a little loud bursting and water noises.

Looking for audio sources and looking around,

I was beside him... Mr. Rock was growing an axe instead of his head (...).

It is an obvious fatality, and Mr. Locke, who was crushed in the head by every trademark Mohican, soon turns into light dust.

Only then will the bloody axe remain on the spot and return to the hand of a certain person as he circles with the circle.

The person looks around gleefully as he grabs the back axe......

That was that kid who was supposed to be a death penalty - [Murder Princess] Emily.

She hasn't [frozen], and her broken arm when she flew the axe is completely healed.

In a state of complete five-body satisfaction...... she was there.

"Duh, what do you mean!?"

"Did someone even use resuscitation items?!?"

"Idiot! That kind would make no sense if you had to use it in resuscitable time before it became dust of light! He was definitely dusty! It's impossible to come back from there!

Yes, it shouldn't be possible.

In common sense, it couldn't have been possible.

But I do.

Some significantly rewrite the performance of even the skills specified in the specifications.

One sees a future that should be invisible.

And one creates tens of thousands of legions just by himself.

They... sometimes overshadow common sense and achieve what shouldn't be possible.

Knowing that, I could have guessed.

"... this is Emily's ability to..."

- Dead and resurrected, Super Embrio.

◆ ◆ ◆

■

< Infinite Dendrogram > has a concept called resource.

It is a kind of energy resource held by human-borne jobs, monsters, items, nature, and.

Resource interactions vary.

When an organism destroys an organism, it is used as an experience to increase the level of the organism.

Launch various skills using the resources contained in the item as a cost.

When a monster dies, convert the majority of the resource into an item as well.

or when a monster dies, resources other than Experience and Item Conversion minutes are immediately recovered to the Management AI, and the flesh that loses the resource becomes the dust of light.

The applications of the resources recovered to the management AI vary.

When the Avatar is destroyed, use the destroyed Avatar's resources, and the Avatar Manager, AI One Alice, rebuilds the Avatar.

Alternatively, the management AI V Caterpillar in charge of the environment may be used to repair the environment or improve the environment around the savepoint.

It can be said that the business of life in < Infinite Dendrogram > is the concentration and distribution of resources, consumption and amplification.

Among them are individuals who use the resources to give and receive them.

[Destroyer King] Shu Sterling's [God of War Ship Baldor] or [Archprofessor] Mr. Franklin's [Warcraft Factory Pandemonium] converts resources for specific items to manufacture ammunition and monsters.

[King of Crimes] Zex Würfel's [Masaru Hachihara Nun] has gained versatility and physical resistance by < Embrio > acquiring the majority of the resources acquired by < Master > in the job.

And [Murder Princess] Emily Killingston's [Soul Food Double Axe Jonaldepaztri] is an extremely direct (...) use of resources < Super Embrio >.

The ability of Jonaldepaztori is - to seize and store resources.

Resources of organisms killed by Emily… Jonaldepaztori also stores the majority of resources that are supposed to be EXP.

Emily's level is therefore lower than it should have been, but that is trivial in terms of Yonardepaztori's ability.

Jonaldepaztori has also absorbed the rooting resources from Tian's body, which remains after death, and has turned them into dust of light. A tentative value, but if you smoke from level 100 tien to the limit, Yonaldepaztori gets 100 resources. Simply killing him would suck half of it.

Known both as God and the Devil in Asteka mythology, it can be said that Jonaldepaztori deserves the ability to speak of 'sucking the soul'.

But it is only the front steps, and the true price of Jonaldepaztri lies ahead.

Yonar Depaztri can use the stored resources - for Emily's resuscitation (...).

Passive skills of Yonalde Paztri, Survival of the fittest.

When the resuscitation time elapses after death and Emily's resources are recovered and emptied...... automatically fills the resources to resuscitate Emily.

It consumes resources that are sacrificed to God, but stored as such, and instantly rebuilds the avatar from the dust of light.

Regardless of whether that is death from trauma or death as a result of a state anomaly, Emily comes back with a full recovery of HP and state anomalies.

If you say so, it's like the playback work carried out by the management AII I is being carried out instantly without even going through a logout only for itself.

That alone is phenomenal, but there are even more deadly (...) issues for Emily's adversaries.

Emily's resuscitation consumes resources - but there is no limit on the number of times (...).

If Emily's level is around 100, Emily comes back with 100 resources.

Emily's level now is 928, so she also has more resuscitation resources.

I see, then there will be limits.

If we run out of resources, we can no longer resuscitate.

But the men Emily has murdered so far, including those on the verge of killing, are 36587.

Other monsters, such as worms, have also been killed.

That's what's deadly.

What amount of resources does Emily currently store?

And how many resuscitations is Emily capable of?

Even if resources are shredded with recurrent resuscitation, resources will continue to increase again if Emily kills an organism in the fight.

At least you'll never fall before the hostiles.

That is the sincerity of Rascal's words.

[Murder Princess] Emily Killingston is - immortal (...).

To be continued
