A Core Ship From The Start

Chapter 147: Chapter 127: Demon Killer_1

For Dr. Braid, it was an extraordinarily exciting day.

As the head of this research facility, Dr. Braid had discovered secrets unimaginable to the average person. Underneath the desolation of this alien world, an advanced civilization had once lurked. That civilization was ultimately destroyed, but Dr. Braid had obtained a new technology from their leftover records.

A technology that could lead to a place called “Subspace”.

Afterward, Dr. Braid successfully replicated this technology and eagerly opened a gateway to Subspace. There, he saw and felt… the truth of the universe.

It was the source of this world and everything within it!

Therefore, he opened the portal, attempting to fully merge this realm with Subspace. In doing so, he could gain infinite power and become a deity beyond human comprehension!

Initially, the plan was going very smoothly. The fools in the base were no match for the demons. Whether it be the powerless researchers or armed soldiers, they all met a painful and hopeless death amidst the screams and howls of the Subspace demons.

But then ……

What the hell is that?

Watching the surveillance screen before him, Dr. Braid was dumbstruck. Within the screen, a towering armored monster rampaged through the corridors. The demons, capable of easily slaying fully armed soldiers, seemed as helpless as chicks against it. Their attacks couldn’t even leave a scratch on this horrifying armored beast. Not even the flames they furiously spewed forth, capable of melting steel, could leave any trails on its body.

On the contrary, this armored monster was killing the demons like an expert. Most people would be scared stiff at the sight of the terrifying demons, yet this armored monster seemed to disregard them completely. It merely swung its war hammer, sweeping it across like performing a simple cleanup task, instantly smashing any demons in its way into pieces.

“Bang!!!”

On the screen before him, Dr. Braid watched as the armored monster swung its war hammer once more, sending a sealed iron door flying. But simultaneously, a demon that had been waiting inside the room roared and charged towards the monster. It looked like a bull without horns, not only thick-skinned but also possessing powerful impact force – even an armored vehicle was no match for it!

However, what happened next was beyond Dr. Braid’s belief.

Against the bull-like demon’s charge, the armored monster showed no signs of evading or defending. Instead, it roared back and charged against the demon. With a “bang”, the bull-like demon couldn’t even hold out for a second before it was overturned and sent flying towards a corner by the armored monster, splitting into two halves on impact.

“Sssss—————!!”

Seeing this, Dr. Braid sharply inhaled in shock.

What in the world is this creature?

Yet the fight wasn’t over. At that moment, a large demon rushed towards the armored monster. This stout demon looked like a fat man of large build. Its arms were giant rocket propellers capable of launching powerful fireballs. However, this time, the tubby devil didn’t choose to fire. Instead, it rushed forward and smacked its hand onto the war hammer held by the armored monster, restraining it. Then, the tubby devil roared and raised its hands, aiming for the monster’s head.

But just then, the armored monster let go of the war hammer, reached behind, and brandished a chainsaw sword, swinging it forcefully at the tubby devil!

“Buzz————!!”

The whirling chainsaw sword split the tubby devil in two like slicing through fat pork, the fatty cuts gleaming with oily lustre under the light. The tubby devil didn’t even have a chance to resist before being sliced into two slabs of meat and crashing to the ground.

The armored monster then picked up the war hammer, stepped over the body of the tubby devil, and continued to advance.

At this moment, Dr. Braid could no longer afford to be shocked. In fact, when he saw the creature pull out the chainsaw sword, Dr. Braid seemed to realize something. He hurried to the computer, opened it, and quickly, various images came into view on the screen – those were pictures of the ancient inscriptions that the research base had unearthed from the ancient civilization within this planet. It was these materials that gave them knowledge about the lost civilization hidden beneath the surface of this planet.

“Just as I thought…!!!”

Seeing one of the photographs of the inscriptions, Dr. Braid’s face turned grave. The image was a depiction of the last standing stone – a horrifying warrior, clad in skull armor and wielding a chainsaw sword, charged at an onslaught of demons. Single-handedly, he vanquished all the demons and destroyed the portal.

However, afterwards, this terrifying warrior turned around and started purging the inhabitants of the planet – for they had defied the sacred will, colluding with demons!

This was the true reason for the extinction of the civilization on this planet – they were not destroyed by the demons, but by the very entity that was supposed to be their salvation!

But… that should have happened thousands of years ago!!

Where on earth did this thing come from?

Looking at the photograph of the inscription in front of him, Dr. Braid was covered in cold sweat. He initially thought that whatever had happened on this planet was already ancient history. But the monster that appeared before his eyes now seemed like a nightmare from a fairy tale coming to life… Could this really be possible?

No, it can’t be!

Thinking of this, Dr. Braid shivered. He could feel the nightmares of hell’s depths raging and hating the armored monster before his eyes. Such a fiery anger that it felt like it would burn his brain into charred coal, even he could feel the heat.

It absolutely cannot be allowed to ruin everything!

Although he didn’t know exactly what this armored monster was, Dr. Braid was sure that its target was the demon he had just summoned. Under no circumstances could he allow it to succeed!!

Of course, Duanmu Huai had no idea what the mastermind behind the scenes was thinking. In fact, there was only one thing he was doing right now, all in line with the single sentence of the secret advanced mission he had triggered.

[Breach Hell, eliminate demons!]

Simple, direct, just kill!

Of course, Duanmu Huai was not an idiot. To breach Hell, naturally, he had to go to subspace. For Duanmu Huai, going to subspace was not difficult, even if there weren’t any subspace fragments resonating with his soul here. He knew how to enter subspace — if that idiotic doctor had opened a fissure into subspace here, then there must be a core. All he had to do was find a focal point and burrow in.

After all, as a player, Duanmu Huai had done such actions thousands of times, he could do it with his eyes closed.

But…how many demons does he have to exterminate to call it quits?

Strictly speaking, demons in subspace are endless. As mentioned earlier, unless you possess a special ability, it is actually very difficult to kill these subspace demons. At most, you could temporarily eliminate them, only to see them resurrect. However, Duanmu Huai doesn’t have time to worry about such small matters. In short, first, he charges into the subspace, and then decides what to do next!

As the saying goes, “Where there is a will, there is a way!”

Wait, that’s not the original saying.

Well…… “The end is in sight, the journey always has a destination!”?

Forget it, they all mean the same thing.

Duanmu Huai shook his head and continued forward. Although he was totally unfamiliar with this base, it was no matter. Because the reconnaissance Servo Skull has already scanned the whole base clearly. Now, all he had to do according to the map in front of him was to find the place with the strongest subspace fluctuations.

Of course, this is not an easy task. Due to the previous battle, the entire base had been sealed off. Even quite a few places had been completely blocked. Just like the elevator door right in front of Duanmu Huai was completely sealed. According to game rules, he should probably go look for an ID card or something to unlock the door first, then enter……EMMMM, but this is reality, not a game.

Duanmu Huai reached out, grabbed the elevator door, and pulled hard!

“Boom!!”

Accompanied by a frantic alarm sound, the heavy iron door was ripped open directly by Duanmu Huai. He then peered down into the nearly hundred-meter-deep tunnel and leaped down!!

“Whoosh—————!!”

The wind whistled past Duanmu Huai’s ears, the invisible force of gravity bound his body like shackles, pulling him down rapidly. Just as Duanmu Huai was about to land at the very bottom, he lifted his right hand, and the impact was effectively countered by the gravity gloves making his landing on the floor akin to a stone falling heavily.

But, this was not the end.

“Screech—————!!”

Just as Duanmu Huai landed, a harsh friction sound suddenly came from above. Then, the elevator came thundering down, crashing directly towards Duanmu Huai! However, in the face of the falling elevator, Duanmu Huai neither dodged nor ducked. Instead, he directly grabbed his Thunder Warhammer, and made a grand swing at the elevator car!!

“————!!!!”

The entire ground shook violently in that instant. A moment later, the severely damaged elevator door was smashed open, and Duanmu Huai simply strode out from it, his armor not even scratched!

Just what kind of monster is this!!

Witnessing this scene, Dr. Braid’s legs gave out from fear. That blow just now, even some powerful demons wouldn’t able to withstand it, but this monster emerged unscathed?

Recalling the scenes witnessed from the inscriptions on the stone tablet, this steel monster single-handedly vanquished all the demons and even went on to kill the aliens who had summoned them…could it be true?

How then could this creature be killed!!

Eureka!!

With that thought, Dr. Braid’s spirit lifted as he suddenly thought of a solution.

Going by the route this steel monster is advancing, it’s heading towards the location of his transfer device. It’s highly likely that it plans to proceed as depicted on the stone tablet and destroy the transfer device, closing off the gateway to Hell. If that’s the case, why not reverse the play and throw him directly into hell? The demons here may have been incapable of dealing with this steel monster, but can unlimited demons of Hell not deal with him?!
