The Lone SF Transmigrator in the Otherworld Forum

Chapter 76: Bridgehead

"YongYong. Are you following well?"

As expected, he\'s quite useful.

Is a dragon truly a dragon after all?

Very, very excellent.

YongYong was using magic tailored to each Kaiju\'s attributes to collect byproducts.

Slash slash-

Swiftly swiftly-

Cutting, extracting, burning, roasting.

Freezing, cooling, spreading, picking up.

After doing it a few times, he seemed to have gotten the hang of it, repeatedly dismantling and looting according to the characteristics of the byproducts.

Karlstein smiled with satisfaction as he watched YongYong.

Magic is quite convenient, isn\'t it?

To think he could create a Subspace, though not infinite, and put items in it.

Of course, the Galactic Empire had such technology too, but it was only used for military purposes and couldn\'t be used as easily and conveniently as this.

We can increase the speed a bit more, then.

"Now, let\'s move on to another place..."

Just as Karlstein was retrieving his spear from the body of a fallen Kaiju…

Boom boom boom-

Crack-

Kuwoong-

Kuaaaa-

Three giant rock Kaiju, nearly 10 meters tall, approached, toppling giant trees.

However, there was no way he would be nervous about this.

Rather, he was thinking of something else as he tilted his head.

"Hmm. Should we collect the trees too?"

This \'World\' was completely different from ordinary dimensions.

Everything from the density of the air, gravity, to the earth and vegetation was different.

Tough, stubborn, hard, and sturdy.

So much so that one would want to research how it was created.

Rather, Karlstein was satisfied with such aspects.

It felt like traveling as an ordinary adventurer, you could say?

"The byproducts are certainly extraordinary."

The lab would be pleased if I threw these at them.

Although he could only do a simple analysis, he could clearly sense the tremendous Ether reaction. Moreover, the reactivity towards the Astral side was also excellent.

If we make equipment with materials like these, it would be revolutionary for Dimensional Transmission.

Currently, it required massive amounts of Ether to send intact equipment. Or it was impossible to send at all.

That was also the reason why he couldn\'t access with his main body.

He had tried a few times, but Selena, the Succubus Queen, couldn\'t handle it.

She begged for her life, saying it was impossible to connect.

Well. I understand.

Even I think my main body is a special physical form.

After all, it\'s a body related to a Single Number.

"Hup."

The lightly thrown metal spear pierces through two of them simultaneously.

Soon after, another spear he thrust out burst the body of the remaining one.

Kueeek-

Kuaaak-

The three rock Kaiju stop moving after struggling.

"Hyaaah! How should we dismantle these ones?"

"Just take a few as samples."

"Ah, no! I will try to do it first!"

YongYong, who appeared from behind, started to work on the rock Kaiju, moving swiftly.

As Karlstein extended his hand, the metal spears stuck in them floated and returned to him.

Chajak. Chak. Chak.

They quietly entered the spear sheath floating behind Karlstein\'s back.

Kaiju corpses scattered messily.

Countless corpses were strewn on the ground along the path he had moved.

"It\'s certainly a waste."

"I will try to salvage as much as I can!"

Karlstein stroked his chin while examining the remains of the rock Kaiju.

I\'d need to investigate accurately, but it seems similar in nature to those beings that were spraying Silver Blood back then.

Since the research level regarding the Astral Dimension was low, the more research materials, the better.

"Aria will like this."

"Pardon?"

"Nothing. Haha."

Let\'s proceed with analysis and processing later.

What\'s certain is…

This \'World\' was definitely not created by Selena\'s power alone. Although he had supported her with 1 trillion Karma Points, this place far exceeded that scale.

It\'s certain that there was some external influence.

And that was probably due to something inside the Dimensional Passage.

Karlstein looked around the fog-covered forest.

Last time, they had failed halfway because of a Double Numbering Entity, but...

This time, I\'ll suck everything dry.

***《Great Sephiroth》

A place where the entire space was made of tree trunks and branches.

In the center was a huge round table made of raw wood, and in the middle of the round table, a silver spring shimmered like a mirror.

And dozens of silhouettes surrounding the round table were taking comfortable positions, entrusting their bodies to the branches.

Bang!

Everyone\'s attention focused on the sound of someone strongly striking the round table.

[...Is that really true?]

[It seems so.]

[Those dregs, a shame to our clan, did such a thing?]

[Hmm. According to what I heard from the one who was on the battlefield at that time...]

[How dare that filthy Dream Demon not know their place!]

[Those inferior maggots did that? Isn\'t the report mistaken?]

They were in the midst of a meeting about recent events.

Although they had suffered a lot of damage on the recent battlefield, considering the scale of the battles taking place across all dimensions, there was no need to hold such a meeting.

It was a common occurrence, after all.

However.

The reasons why they couldn\'t just let it slide were the following

First, those dregs of Dream Demons, who usually trembled just at the sight of them, had impudently caused trouble.

Second, the problem occurred on the battlefield with 《Chaos》, of all places.

And lastly, third.

[The connection is still maintained, right?]

[Yes. But it seems somewhat different from the fake dimension created by those Dream Demons.]

[Hmm.... Is it really not something those punks did?]

[There\'s no way they have such abilities.]

[Then who on earth could it be?]

[Is that important?]

[That\'s right. That\'s not what\'s important. What\'s done is done, and we just need to reap the benefits.]

[The Dimensional Strength was unbelievably solid.]

[It\'s hard to believe, but it was a dimension with at least a High-Grade Sacred Blood reaction.]

[Then we absolutely can\'t miss this.]

[The same must be true for those Chaos bastards.]

[However... we don\'t know how long it will last. The stability has decreased quite a bit.]

[Before it\'s too late...]

Their opinions were converging into one.

[Last time, there were big losses due to fighting in the passage... but this time is different, right?]

[That\'s right. There\'s no need to test the waters unnecessarily.]

[It\'s also an appropriate place to establish a bridgehead.]

[We can just add some reserve forces.]

[Then is the decision made?]

Everyone looked in one direction.

A woman wearing a splendid silver laurel wreath.

She nodded.

[We will send additional reinforcements immediately.]

[We wish you good fortune.]

It was the moment when Sephiroth\'s reinforcements were being added.

And this was no different for the 《Chaos》 side.

***"YongYong."

"Yes! Hyung-nim!"

"Do you know what this is?"

"W-Well..."

Karlstein was looking at a small puddle with a strange expression. Of course, it wasn\'t an ordinary puddle.

"The color is unique, but is it that special?"

"Maybe...?"

A small puddle where shimmering silver spring water was bubbling up.

"Hyung-nim, do you perhaps know something?"

"I\'m not certain, but..."

Karlstein\'s eyes sparkled as he stirred the silver spring water with his spear.

"You don\'t know about it either, right?"

"Huh? Yes. To me, it just looks like slightly unusual water..."

"It\'s bubbling up from the ground...?"

Isn\'t this the blood of those fly-like beings?

Why is it bubbling up from the ground?

Anyway.

What is this?

It seems we shouldn\'t just collect the Kaiju byproducts.

This liquid, called Silver Blood, was currently the hottest material in the Galactic Empire.

It was even used in creating the current body.

Even if it was not used for Dimensional Travel, its applications were endless.

When used together with Ether, its efficiency increases, making it no different from a top-grade material.

What an unexpected bonanza, huh?

"Hey... this is a jackpot. YongYong, try digging here a bit."

"Huh?"

No wait, Hyung-nim. Even magic doesn\'t work well on the terrain here.

And yet, are you seriously asking me, a Red Dragon, to dig the ground?

"Clear some trees around here too."

ㄴah, dragons are exceptionally good at digging!

ㄴYongYong, go bring some water.

ㄴour YongYongie is so good at chores.

ㄴYongYongie? More like Choonsikie¹, no? LOL

ㄴyour name is Choonsik from now on. pparently that’s what you are now LMAO

ㄴChoonsik, what are you doing! Move faster!

ㄴLOLOLOLOL

ㄴwhat are you doing? Hyung-nim is waiting!

Wait, Hyung-nim. Please. There are people watching...

Of course, he had received permission from his Hyung-nim. He said it was okay to turn on the broadcast when connected.

But maybe I should have turned off the broadcast if I knew it would be like this?

This is so embarrassing.

However.

"Oh my, Hyung-nim! I was just about to start digging!"

"YongYongie, who listens to Hyung-nim\'s words so well! I shall charge forth!"

He doesn\'t have even the slightest thought of talking back.

"Aren\'t I a human excavator after all!"

YongYong, who had even abandoned his own identity.

In fact, YongYong was just a nickname used in the community, and he had a cooler name, but he had long forgotten it!

The moment he called him \'YongYongie\', his name was already YongYongie.

"Th-Then can I return to my original body?"

"Ah, right. You said you were a dragon, didn\'t you?"

"Huh? Yes..."

"No, wait. Step aside for a moment."

Heuup-

Karlstein took out a short spear from his spear sheath and took a stance.

More sharply.

More narrowly.

More deeply.

Kuguung- Bang!

A sound like a bomb exploding was heard.

When the dust settled.

Swoosh-

A hole dug deeply like a sinkhole.

And it was done so easily and deeply.

W-Wait... But even magic didn\'t work that well here… How?

As YongYong was about to express his bewilderment.

Pushuut-

Swoosh-

Silver liquid burst out like a fountain, incomparable to a mere puddle.

"Oh, what is thi-"

YongYong stopped mid-sentence and stepped back in surprise.

Uwak! What the?

He was startled by the overwhelming aura emanating from Him.

As YongYong hurriedly stepped back to observe him, he could see an expression he had never seen before.

A familiar expression he had often seen in the world YongYong came from.

Gr-Greed?!

"Ah, this can\'t be done carelessly."

"Huh?"

...C-Carelessly, you say?

"We should properly settle down here. YongYong!"

"Y-Yes, yes! Hyung-nim!"

"Can you help me a bit?"

"Aiyo, of course, that goes without saying!"

"Let\'s prepare the ground a bit before support arrives."

"Yessir!"

What kind of support could it be?

Where is this place?

What is the Oradge plotting now?

YongYong\'s questions only deepened.

However, one thing was certain - he was looking forward to it.

1. Choonsik is a character used in Kakao. A kind of mascot.
