Chapter 129: Within The Old Ship
Two of the heat sources had familiar shapes.
The first one was deep within the vault, and looked like a very large spider, dangling by a thick thread.
‘I’ve seen tiny spiders… So this is the queen, perhaps?’
The second one was just beyond the stairway, to the right, visible through the wall.
‘Some kind of turtle…?’
The Paru didn’t spend much time looking at them.
Because the third source was heat was within the stairway, just above him.
It slithered on the wall like a snake, despite having countless legs.
More than slithering, it looked like it was swimming, due to the movement of its tail.‘A silverfish…?’
Unlike most of the Visero on Serolia who had sizeable crystals on their bodies, this one had tiny crystals, almost like fragments, covering the entirety of its body.
Despite the lack of light, those pieces of crystals glistened faintly through the darkness, as the Visero moved on the wall.
It was about two meters long.
The Paru looked around for a moment.
‘I don’t know how long they’ve been here… But it doesn’t seem like they fought, or will fight. There isn’t much to eat either… Can they survive like this?’
He hypothesized that some Species of Visero, like those in front of him, could absorb energy through their Crystals and survive that way, similarly to how plants can intake light.
‘Well, plants need more than that… But these don’t even get much light. It sure is interesting…’
But just because it was interesting didn’t mean that there was any time to waste.
The Paru used his “Blade Of Bones” Skill, and waited for the Silverfish-like Visero to get close enough.
Its body was impaled and twitched erratically.
Thankfully, no sounds were made by it.
‘Devouring an insect is gross, but if it can help me recover energy more easily, then…’
Crunch- Crunch- Crunch-
The Paru turned towards the other heat sources.
Neither had moved.
He walked beyond the stairway. The turtle-like Visero didn’t move. Or, perhaps, it simply hadn’t noticed him.
In any case, the Paru was more worried about the spider-like Visero, which lay on a large web of thick crystalline webs.
Upon getting a bit closer, the Paru could detect heat coming from those webs.
‘I see… It doesn’t just intake the energy that the crystals on its body absorb, but also the energy absorbed by those threads. Very cool…’
Once again, he wasted no time, immediately activating his Blade Of Bones Skill, and slashing the spider-like Visero’s body in two.
Its body twitched and moved around for a bit, before lying lifeless.
[Your Skill “Spiderweb Production Lv2” becomes “Spiderweb Production Lv.3”!]
[You have more control over the thickness and hardness of the produced Spiderwebs.]
[Spiderwebs can be used to absorb small amounts of energy.]
‘Sounds good to me.’ The Paru nodded.
He turned towards the last source of heat, the last Visero.
The turtle-like Visero moved so slowly that the Paru almost felt sorry for it.
‘I doubt you can do anything bad, but I am curious as to what you can do…’
The Paru brought his blade arm down against the Visero’s shell, and sparks flew in the darkness that filled the vault.
‘Oho. Pretty tough.’
As soon as the hit had landed on the shell, the Visero had hidden its whole body within that shell.
‘Looks like you really can’t do much…’
The Paru positioned himself so as to thrust his blade arm in the opening of the shell.
It was Devoured moments later.
‘Status.’ He called out internally.

‘Not too bad.’ The Paru thought to himself.
More of his rocky and jagged skin had changed, merging with the turtle-like Visero’s shell.
‘I’d like my attack Stat to increase… But there’s not much I can do about that now.’
Now that there were no Visero left, the Paru looked around for more things to Devour.
‘Oho…’ His eyes shone brightly as he found a box filled with weapons. ‘They look similar to Liz’s machete, and to that hammer… Steam and tiny explosions increase kinetic energy, allowing for stronger hits… The hammer has a rough design, and it uses up way more fuel, which is why it flew out of my hands when I didn’t use all my strength to hold onto it. I can already produce combustible mist. To be able to use something like that… It’s therefore…’ The Paru took hold of one of the weapons, and made it dangle above his mouth. ‘A matter of design.’
Crunch- Crunch- Crunch-
A way to increase his Attack Stat substantially had been found.
The faint sound of footsteps resonated within the vault and spaceship.
Thankfully by then, the Paru had already Devoured half of the weapons, which had allowed him to gain exactly what he wanted.
‘She’ll take what she needs, then we’re out of here. Since I can hear her footsteps clearly, it’s safe to assume that she would be able to hear mine. I’ll stay here without moving until she gets out…’ The Paru thought to himself. ‘I hope whatever she’s looking for isn’t inside the vault. It’s dark, so invisibility or not, she will shoot the moment that she hears something…’
Roka carefully walked through the ship, her shotgun in hand.
She stood before one of the closed doors for a moment, before unleashing a front kick that forced it open.
‘Geh…’ The Paru scratched his head. ‘Making that much noise can’t be a good idea… Well, I guess she’s doing that to keep her weapon in her hands. Still…’
