Protagonist?Antagonist? I Reject Both

Chapter 347: 347



Suddenly, amidst the luminous chaos, a colossal silhouette emerged from the depths of the storm.

As Leon focused on his gaze, through the window, a string of floating numbers appeared.

Name: Space Bug Crawler

Age:890

Cultivation: Pre-evolve Level 0.5

"HUHHHHHHH!"

'What's up with this description?'

Then a robotic voice spoke aloud from the ship. A holographic image appeared before Leon and Gwen showcasing a huge centipede-like creature with upper surface bulges and covered in metallic plates.

[It was a Space Bug Crawler, a monstrous entity with a segmented steel-like exoskeleton shimmering with a metallic shine. Its body was massive, stretching over twenty meters in length, with numerous jointed legs that clung effortlessly to the fabric of the steely exoskeleton itself.]

"Holyshit!"

Leon cursed loudly and jumped up from his seat as he spotted the monster.

A space monster...A fucking space monster appearing there for real.

The Space Bug Crawler's eyes were multifaceted, reflecting the ambient light in a disconcerting kaleidoscope of colours. Each of its legs ended in sharp, hooked appendages, twitching with anticipation as it sensed the presence of the spacecraft.

Gwen gasped audibly, her breath catching in her throat as she pressed closer to the window to get a better look. "Leon, do you see that? It is so huge and how is it surviving in space and moving around."

Leon, equally transfixed, could hardly believe his eyes.

A living entity or to say a monster surviving in space. Yeah, it was surprising but the fuck was this description saying.

'System! Can you tell me more about it?'

[Host, I can't say anything about that even if you use luck points. Please ascend through this sub-dimensional place and the entire Outer World.]

Leon's eyes became dazed for a moment upon hearing the description.

The system message surprised him again.

The Outer World....

A world beyond this dimensional region.

According to his grandmother, that's the starting point of the real world, and also he faintly remembered that she was from the Inner World.

For some reason, this piqued his interest.

"It's enormous... and it looks formidable. This must be one of the space-dwelling creatures they warned us about."Gwen murmured.

Just then, many murmurs started echoing in his mind.

[Mind, let me take care of this.]

"Avelin, but..."

Before he could fully give his order, something phased out and appeared in the space amidst the storm.

A coagulated dark mass emerged and, emitting a darkish energy that seemed to be scattered, a humanoid figure appeared.

Seeing Avelin sprang into action, Leon asked the pilot to slow down a bit.

[Liege, just watch how this humble servant takes care of this measly bug.]

Yelling with a prideful grin, his eyes locked onto the bug crawler. Clenching his fist and coating it in dense turbulent energy he punched.

But even before he could finish the punch, the momentum generated by the punch created a thirst, and his figure shot back.

An eerie glow of force shot out at Bug Crawler and struck his head but due to lightning flashing in it, the scattered power of the punch that hit him was just like a gentle tap.

Meanwhile, Avelin's figure floated uncontrolled and was soon fried by a huge shower of lightning.

Leon and Gwen who saw this scene from inside were too startled to say anything.

While processing his thoughts, Leon heard boastful words from another shithead who rushed out.

[Hahahaha!Avelin... All you know is to butter my Liege with sweet words. See and learn from me how to do the work.]

Terpas vampire figure appeared in space. He raised his fist and made a gesture while shouting.

"Come and have a taste of my blood rain of spears."

"Spears dig holes in this foul beast's body."

Leon, who heard his words through a mind connection, almost slipped into his face and screamed.

"Fucker, you have blood manipulation power, not blood summoning. Did you forget that you use enemy blood as weapons but where the fuck will get blood in space."

Leon's yelling woke up Terpas. At the next moment, a lightning strike struck Avelin but unless Avelin, Terpas unfolded his wings and flapped it.

Gliding his way and dodging the tightening, he moved like a blur.

Soon, a loud impact radiated through the space.

Leon plastered his face on the windshield to know what happened when he heard Terpas cry.

[Liege, I am caught..]

"Huh! How?"

[Its skin is the hardest I have ever seen and it's antenna...]

Terpas' words cut abruptly and soon Terpas's memory passed onto Leon.

What happened in there was Terpas was unable to control himself fully and slipped in and slammed on the head of Space Bug Crawler. The hardness shook the shit out of him and the next second, the antenna on its head, whipped like a tentacle.

Grabbing Terpas, it yanked him and threw him into its mouth.

"Damn! What the hell is wrong with you all?"

"Have you all become stupid because I haven't let you fight for a few days? You all are fighting in space without any experience so at least take some time instead of rushing."

[Master, let me go...Let me go.."

A thick vein bulged on Leon's forehead hearing Hella's voice.

"Shut up!"

Leon took a moment and declared, "I will go out to fight it. Where are the space suits?"

"What? Leon, have you gone insane? You just saw what happened out there?"Gwen freaked

out sweating buckets.

Inside the spacecraft, the pilot's voice crackled over the intercom, breaking the tense silence.

"Sir, you don't need to go out. We frequently used to encounter this type of menace. Our spacecraft is fully capable of dealing with it.

Leon's mood became soured and he was about to stop that guy alas it was already late.

[Preparing for defensive maneuvers. We have encountered a Space Bug Crawler. Initiating defensive protocols.]

At that moment, the spacecraft's external panels began to hum with energy as they generated

a field of pulsating beams. The beams shot out in all directions, creating a web of energy

around the spacecraft, designed to repel and disorient any hostile entities.

The Space Bug Crawler, unafraid of the defensive measures, scuttled closer, its movements surprisingly agile for a creature of its size. Its antennae-like sensors swayed rhythmically, probing the air for any signs of vulnerability.

As the pulsating beams continued to weave around the spacecraft, the creature hesitated briefly, seemingly assessing the situation. Then, with a sudden burst of speed, it lunged forward, its massive claws clamping down on the energy shield with a deafening clang.

Inside the cabin, Gwen gripped Leon's hand tighter, her eyes wide with a mixture of fear and awe. "Leon, what do we do? Can that shield hold?"

Leon glanced at the pilot's console, and spoke. "We trust in the ship's defences. They've

prepared for this."

Each impact reverberated through the hull, a reminder of the precariousness of their situation

in the vast expanse of space.

Just as it seemed the creature might breach the shield, the pilot created a huge canon picture

on the panel, and then...

With a blinding flash, a pulsating beam hit the bug...

BOOOOOOM!

A gigantic ball of fire expanded and soon everything was surrounded by a cloud of flames.

By the time it subsided, the spacecraft had moved away by a great distance but from the

panel, Leon could see the disintegrated mass of debris floating in the sky.

"Ahem!"The pilot coughed seeing Gwen's bewildered expression.

"The cannons take a huge amount of energy so I can't waste them. I made sure that it would

be a definite hit so I waited until it came close to the barrier."
