Reborn as an Evolving Space Monster: Harem Of Otherworldly Beauties

Chapter 193: Underground Extermination

The Paru cracked his knuckles and took a step down the tunnel.

[A Quest has been issued.]

[Quest: “Underground Extermination”.]

[Objective: Destroy as much as you can of Tyl’s Underground Colonies.]

[Reward: Ranging from 1 Skill Point to 3 Skill Points.]

“You really hate those living on Tyl, huh?” The Paru shook his head. “Well, these are coming from the Goddess of Death, so that much should be expected.”

It was rather strange to obtain a Quest with such timing.

Was it just because he had found the tunnel? Couldn’t the System guide him to this place just like it had, once, guided him to the spaceship? Why wasn’t he guided here on his first time around on Tyl? Because he wasn’t strong enough then? Or because the crewmates didn’t have more time to give him, needing to depart to Serolia?

“I’ll just take it as a Hidden Quest.” He shrugged, and entered the tunnel.

It didn’t take long for him to be plunged in darkness, and for him to pleasantly notice that the increase in Perception Stats had the benefits he had expected.

‘The salamanders… I wonder what type of other shit I’ll find. I saw other small creatures, now and back then. But I didn’t think about following them. Wonder what I’ll find…’

The Paru expected mostly large groups of small creatures, but bigger ones were also a possibility, as the tunnel he had entered was rather large.

‘Something the size of a Giganto Zilla or Wizzo Alpha would be just a tiny bit too big to pass through. But those are really big, so things bigger than myself are still possible.’

Thinking about it, the Paru found that it made sense why there was so little information about Tyl in the Database.

‘Unlike Serolia, there really isn’t anything valuable here. Well, for them. To me and my Devour Skill, everything has been very valuable.’

Tss- Tss- Tss-

Hiss!

As expected, the first thing that the Paru found in his path was,

‘A whole army of Salamanders… Makes sense. The tunnels are connected, and by the System Quest, there are multiple Colonies, so multiple Species. The Salamanders being the first make sense. Other Species have other entry points, other tunnels that they use, which lead to their colony directly.’

[Those aren’t Salamanders.]

‘I know that much.’ The Paru frowned slightly. ‘Since you’re not giving me their names, does that mean that they’re an unknown Species? One without a name?’

[They are commonly referred to as “Tyl-Based lifeforms”.]

[Names were given to visually similar Species, but not this one.]

‘Right.’

The Paru focused on the army of Salamanders.

‘There are like… Two hundred of those.’

Some were on the ground, some were hanging onto the tunnel’s curves, and others were stepping over their brethren.

‘If they all shoot their poison at once, that might be troublesome. To deal with them easily…’

The Paru’s lips curled upwards as his hand took hold of the pendant hanging from his neck.

‘I’ll have to take it off for a bit.’

It was clear that the chain wouldn’t survive, so the Paru simply tore the necklace off.

‘I’ll make a new one afterwards.’

The Salamander-like creatures were still three dozen meters.

‘The easiest way to do it is definitely…’

Four limbs appeared from the Paru’s back. All had, at their end, the same type of pointy Crystals that could be found at the tip of a Giganto Zilla’s tail.

‘Aim it just right…’ The Paru told himself internally as he tightened his grip around the necklace’s pendant. ‘And don’t let it out of your sight.’

Seconds later, a dozen Salamander-like creatures noticed something shining, just above them.

The next second, a piercing light shone from the exit’s direction.

Before any of them could react, the piercing lights connected with the Tsero Crystal above them and,

HISS! HISS! HISS!

Just like it had against the Tsero, the attack pierced through the Salamander-like creatures like butter.

Once the Crystal hit the ground, three dozen of them were left.

Noticing that the attack hadn’t damaged the tunnel’s structure too badly, the Paru simply continued shooting at the Tsero Crystal, his rays of plasma piercing through fallen creatures to reach it.

“Hmm…”

Once only a dozen were left, the Paru dealt with them by simply shooting the rays of plasma at them.

“I’d like to test which is stronger, mine or Roka’s.” He walked closer to the fallen creatures. “Since I went down the tunnel for a while, we’re already pretty deep into the ground. If the tunnel won’t collapse from this, it’s unlikely that it’ll collapse from anything.” The Paru whispered, before crouching, picking up the necklace, and starting to Devour the dead Salamander-like aliens.

[Your Perception Stat increases by 2 Stat Points.]

[You have Developed the Skill “Poison Resistance”!]

‘I did? I thought I was already resistant… I guess that means I’m resistant to a wider range of poisons now. Mm… Fearing to get poison all over me and then proceeding to eat them whole, poison and all, was a bit dumb of me… Well, I would have taken a break upon feeling anything bad happening so.’

[Your Skill “Weak Poison Production” becomes “Poison Production”!]

“Here we go. That’s what I wanted.”

It didn’t take long for the Paru to notice that…

“Huh? Not just Salamanders… Snakes are mixed in there as well.”

All the same, the Paru Devoured them all.

‘My Plasma Ray Skill uses a lot of Endurance Points, especially since I use four exit points, and, therefore, use the Skill four times at once.’ The Paru stared at the deeper part of the tunnel. ‘ I’ll walk slowly for now, to recover some on the way.’

It didn’t take long for a chuckle to exit his mouth.

“Feels like some kind of dungeon.”

And, in a way, it was.

The Paru moved deeper into the tunnel, dealing with both snake-like and salamander-like creatures.

With time, more snake-like creatures started to appear.

Something else that changed with time was…
