RUST -545

“Should I keep trying? Keep making a fuss with the bubbles.”

Jiiiiiing-

Eclipse wailed softly as if targeting its prey.

[Okay. Wait. I know Na Ju-yeon’s secret.]

[Do you know how dark that woman is?]

[I can present evidence. I have evidence!]

What evidence? When even regular computers can make deepfakes, do you expect us to believe the evidence presented by a guy who creates virtual reality?

[Connect. Connect and see for yourself. If you see what that woman does, it will all turn out to be a misunderstanding.]

So it’s a misunderstanding?

I feel so uncomfortable, I feel dirty. Am I misunderstanding?

[I also know what Miss Kim is hiding.]

[That woman is different from what she looks like on the outside. What she’s always after is power.]

I know, kid.

Always looking for someone to sit next to.

[I also know the secret that Kim Ki-soon is keeping hidden.]

[Do you know that your friend actually wants something else? You can find out what he wants by logging in.]

Even if that kid calls it a secret, it’s still a secret. Even if he’s a jerk, he’s still a jerk. Even with tentacles on his head, what else could he possibly have? It doesn’t matter if he has them.

[Hacker. That woman was originally like me. She had the same dream.]

[Do you think psychometry is out of date? Do you really think that girl is on the same side?]

[Wouldn’t you know if you checked it yourself?]

[I (we) know. It’s true.]

“so?”

whatever?

You want me to connect?

now?

In this situation?

Dr. Jack Neese had a fit as he watched Maru stride towards him.

[If you kill me, what about the quantum computer?]

[It is not something that humans can handle.]

[Do you think Kim Ki-soon can handle that? That’s a human achievement.]

[The future of humanity and the hope of mankind!]

[That can’t be handled without expertise. Do you think a mongrel without far-sighted wisdom can manage it?]

Why isn’t there anything? There is a way.

[I don’t die. I don’t die. That’s why I’m always resurrected.]

[I always survived! Do you think I’m dead now that you’re killing me?]

[Do you really think you can kill me!]

[I have already broken free from false constraints.]

[From a bio-terminal to a human, and from a human to a god of the new world.]

[God never dies!]

[A world where God dies will eventually become corrupt and collapse!]

The mental waves that spread from the cluster of grapes made up of the head and brain displayed physical force.

Ddddd-

The trembling air.

Maru smiled with his fangs exposed despite the pressure squeezing his entire body and took a step forward.

“Don’t worry, I’ll kill you until you die if you don’t. I’ll definitely kill you.”

Come to think of it, this kid.

I wanted to organize it a long time ago, but I’m finally finishing it now.

After being brainwashed by the Kiss Riser, I left it alone to use Tria, but she insisted on doing something? This time too. If I were to quietly do my work and then create a small virtual reality and play house with Tria in it, who would kill me?

[If you kill me? What are you going to do with virtual reality?]

[Do you think a guy as strict as Kim Ki-soon and crazy as him could create a proper virtual reality? A crossbreed soaked in barnacles and drugs?]

The extremely compressed mental waves displayed the ability to control space similar to telekinesis, but it was useless against Maru.

[Right now, I am researching 1,852 research topics and 1,227 experiments that are collecting data through simulations. Almost all of them are showing results. Are we going to get rid of all of them? Research that affects the future of humanity?]

He tried to make a deal by saying that he was conducting research and experiments necessary for the future of mankind, but it didn’t work on Maru.

[There is also research that can immediately increase the power of the Holy Kingdom. There is also research on strengthening the abilities of those with abilities and on the manifestation of abilities.]

[Yes. The sword you use. There is also research on Eclipse. I was doing it.]

Maru’s footsteps, which had been walking steadily, suddenly stopped at the mention of the Eclipse Study. Dr. Jack Nees spoke earnestly, accompanied by the sound of the camera aperture moving.

[That sword. You know it’s not from Earth, right?]

“Just the main point.”

[It’s a substance from outer space. Even quantum computer calculations couldn’t completely uncover its secrets···.]

Tsk tsk-

A black line was drawn and a single grape fell out.

A head in a round container made of tempered glass bubbled, but the clear nutrient liquid soon began to turn red.

The power went out as the connecting cable was cut, so the medicine Na Ju-yeon had been taking was finally starting to kick in. The head that had been glowing in the red nutrient solution suddenly became stiff.

“What’s the main point?”

Maru, who had come over and cut off a grape, raised his knife again.

[Okay. Wait a minute!]

Judging from the angle at which it was raised, it was predicted that it would cut two at a time. The result of the computational power of the grape bunch, which was almost like predicting the future. Dr. Jack Nees had to stop the madman from doing something.

[That sword is not a simple weapon.]

‘It’s something everyone knows.’

Just as he was about to swing Eclipse, Dr. Jack Neese shouted as if the speaker was about to tear.

[It is difficult to prove due to technical limitations, but it has both inorganic and organic properties. The calculation results are certain! That sword is alive in some sense!]

Thud thud thud-

Two grape seeds fell at the same time. A loud bubbling sound was heard and the water boiled red.

[Why? Why! Didn’t you tell me? I told you!]

“That’s all?”

Maru had a rough idea. There were many clues, but it was the acid gulls and acid rats that made him realize that Eclipse was strange.

Even when cutting through buildings and missiles, the blade that had survived was particularly vulnerable to acid. If it were simply weak, it would have been a metal with poor corrosion resistance, so I would have overlooked it. What does it mean that the parts damaged by acid have scabs?

[Image analysis alone has its limitations. If we could conduct research directly, we could design new research equipment using quantum computers…]

Pick- chiiik-

There was a feeling of disconnection, and the antenna line next to the HUD disappeared. Kim Yang had lost contact with the quantum computer.

When I told him to bring a jammer, he must have packed too much, because wireless communication was completely blocked. When the connection with the quantum computer was cut off, Dr. Jack Neese started having a seizure. He was out of his mind.

[No. No! No!! This is not right!!!]

[Did you disconnect? Did you disconnect? What about virtual reality?]

[Research materials? The world I created! Are you planning to throw it all away?]

In a situation where the quantum computer and Dr. Jack Neese were connected, it was impossible to push Ki-sun’s information into the bunches of grapes, because most of the bunches of grapes were Dr. Jack Neese.

Woof-

[This is me. (It’s all me.)]

[I created a new world. (We created a new world.)]

[We are the world. (I am the world.)]

[Do you think you can handle a quantum computer!]

[Do you think that a hybrid and your petty hacker and a dirty whore-like AI can touch my world?]

“uh.”

[That world is also a real world!]

With a short answer, the chopping of the floor began.

The blade, swung calmly, harvested the grapes hanging on the bunch. Knock-knock-knock-knock- the rolling round storage device began to turn a bright red.

The lab floor was now filled with ripe red grapes, leaving no room to step.

A brain was floating in a round glass bottle at the center of a bunch of grapes that had lost all their seeds and turned into a squat shape. It was an original bio-terminal.

A bubble of water formed on the brain-bubble bio-terminal containing Dr. Jack Neese’s original brain.

Then, bubbles began to bubble out from the glass tube that had been calm. I felt in real time that my former self was slowly degenerating into an ordinary lump of neural network.

[Pokgururururururuk]

The parallel connection that led to the bunch of grapes was cut off, and they, or themselves, were dying helplessly. The swordsman knew that the virtual reality was just a virtual reality.

I will curse you.

A curse will be placed on everything I have made.

You will never find hope in the new world.

[Bboogyurrrrrrr-]

Now, only the main body of Dr. Jack Neese remained. The connection to the speaker was also cut off, and Maru, who went to the bio-terminal that was just making bubbles like before, knocked on the transparent glass container with the tip of his knife.

As if in response, broken letters appeared on the monitor and then disappeared. Most of them were sticky contents mixed with pleading and curses.

Starting with the fact that Ki-soon will betray him, power is like a drug and he will definitely get shot in the back of the head someday, and even the assertion that twisted affection will eventually lead to jealousy and hatred, and that what will be left is regret, exhaustion, and self-destruction.

It looks like a prophecy, but it’s actually a curse.

It was a trick to plant distrust and anxiety in people’s minds.

Maru, who had calmly dealt with all of that, swung Eclipse.

A powerful psychic wave rose like a barrier, but it could not stop Eclipse.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

Something transparent was implemented, but a black line was drawn over it.

As the black solid line passed over the main body of the brain, the roughly cut container slid down and the gray-white contents spilled onto the floor. The red-glowing camera light gradually dimmed.

======

omg-

Enpi Maru touched his chest and right arm.

Huh- Huh-

So, he was definitely dead. His heart was pierced and his right arm was cut off. That vivid sensation was a dream? That couldn’t be true.

So what is this now?

Jjak- I hit my own cheek, but I felt a vivid pain. I turned my head and looked at the desk clock, and it was a few days before I died.

It was the day after I killed the first monster.

(Did you regress?)

The sensations and phantom pain were too intense to be called precognitive dreams.

NP Maru decided to regress.

The last blow of the bastard came back vividly. Along with the pain, something like a fantasy appeared in Enpi Maru’s head. It was God’s providence.

[Seal the demon.]

A revelation to create a brain dead state or seal it with a strong sleeping pill or anesthetic so that it can never wake up.

Enpi Maru could feel that it was true.

“Anesthetics. Sleeping pills. Very toxic ones. I don’t care if I become brain dead.”

The only way to end this ominousness is to seal it.

I could tell that the revelation was true.

As I was preparing to seal the demon, I heard a woman’s voice coming from the air.

[Ah- That’s right. The doctor had manipulated it.]

Enpi Maru had heard this voice before.

(Na Ju-yeon?)

Why her?

No. How can a voice come from the air…

Suddenly, something felt strange.

Enpi Maru turned his head out the window with an ominous feeling that the world was twisting.

A long cracked sky.

In the distance, the space began to blur into dark light, and the world looked like broken pottery.

The moon, which seemed to have turned red, was now a faintly blue color.

Under that blue moonlight, the world was a lie.

(Huh? What the heck···.)

Na Ju-yeon was amazed while looking at the speech bubble of NP Maru.

“It’s true. Dr. Jack Neese planted the code in VR.”

“okay.”

Maru nods his head slightly.

I felt uneasy when he told me to log in and check if there was evidence. If I had gone in, I would have been brain dead in the virtual reality or sealed away forever with a sleeping pill.

“I’ve removed all the parts that the doctor touched, so should we stop?”

“No, change everything.”

“Yes? All of them?”

“It’s actually a virtual reality created by the doctor. There might be something else hidden there, so even if it’s a shame, it’s all gone.”

Na Ju-yeon despaired. She had set up a palace on one side of the virtual reality, and now they were going to tear it all down.

“To treat Mr. Ki-sun, you need virtual reality. If you grind him up, where are you going to copy him? Brain cultivation also takes more time.”

“You said you succeeded in low-temperature sleep?”

So, let’s just freeze Gisoon for now. If we put her in a low-temperature sleep, the fusion with the barnacles will be delayed. After buying some time like that, we’ll create the virtual reality again.

“I don’t have the skills. I don’t know much about that. And the grapes were all like that, so when I extracted the information, a lot of it was lost.”

When Maru completely destroyed the bunch of grapes, a lot of physical information was lost. It was not easy to create a perfect virtual reality with the remaining information.

Maru shook his head at Na Ju-yeon’s worried objection.

“We have experts in that field, so just delete it.”

Na Ju-yeon, who couldn’t stand Maru’s gaze gradually becoming colder, held back tears and pressed the delete button.

And then, a moment later, an urgent voice ran into the lab.

“Perfect virtual reality? Where is it? Can it work now? Can I try it?”

Xenia Roden, who managed the Newport News Shipyard, came running when she heard about the virtual reality story.

“Where is the connector? What kind of safety device is it? How did you implement the physics engine? Oh? You used a quantum computer. But it’s still difficult with just a quantum computer.”

Maru began to explain slowly to calm Hood, who was spewing out rapid fire as his body heated up.

therefore···.

It was there, but it’s gone.

Embarrassed-

There are some traces and debris left here, so why don’t you try making something using these?

Hood’s pupils became cloudy.
