Dungeon Monsters Keep Offering Sacrifices

52 – Experiment Subject, Better

The moonlight in the sky was obscured by passing clouds.

In the dark, deep forest.

There was a building there.

It was an unknown research institute.

The inside of the laboratory was shrouded in darkness.

A loud siren sound rang out from inside, indicating an emergency situation.

The walls were stained red and crumbling, and people’s corpses were left twisted and left here and there.

The supplies and equipment placed on the laboratory table were destroyed in an unknown form.

From noble mtl dot com

The same was true for other facilities.

The condition inside the lab was a mess, as if something had passed by.

From time to time, a small flame burned.

Its presence was revealed in the darkness, with the slightest reflection of flames.

A body that emits a lustrous, sparkling blue light.

It was shaped like a large sphere and moved across the interior of the laboratory, dancing between light and darkness among the corpses and equipment.

Every time it moved forward, it left sticky footprints on the floor.

It soon stopped in place.

I slipped through the laboratory surrounded by the disgusting scent of medicine and the thick smell of blood, hiding myself in the border between darkness and flame.

“Is it all over?”

What it is is slime.

The name was Better.

Better is a slime but at the same time a monster that is intelligent enough to think.

At first, Better was no different from an ordinary slime.

I couldn’t even think, let alone speak.

Of course, there was no name.

I was just a slime who lived as I was guided by my desires.

* · * *

Better was a slime and lived peacefully in a dungeon full of slime.

But one day, tragedy began.

A group had appeared in the dungeon.

They were all human.

No, they were not ordinary humans.

Because they are all armed with powerful power and fearsome equipment.

The group entered the slime dungeon and captured all the slimes, including Better.

The captured slimes were taken somewhere.

The place where they were taken was all white walls.

Humans trapped themselves and their compatriots in iron scratches.

Up until then, no thoughts had crossed the bettor’s mind.

I just let myself be guided.

Time continued to pass.

As time passed, the number of compatriots imprisoned with him rapidly decreased.

And one day, humans found themselves.

They took Beter away and started injecting strange liquids into his body.

A tingling and tingling sensation entered my body.

Soon it spread throughout the body.

And that moment.

– Doctor, the response from the bettor is minimal. Shall I give you some more medicine?

I began to understand the words of humans.

The fact that his name is Better.

‘… ….’

At the same time, something flashed in the bettor’s mind.

That was the idea.

Of course, it was very weak.

But now I no longer let myself be guided by the flow of time.

Better thought a little and began to recognize his situation.

Time continued to pass.

Humans still inject strange things into themselves every day.

The stinging and stabbing pain I felt at first was no longer felt.

I felt like my whole body was becoming sluggish.

At the same time as I was freed from the pain, strength began to surge throughout my body.

But the bettor hid it.

‘I am…’ .’

Repetitive experiments every day.

Better now realized that he was an experiment.

I listened to the conversations people had around me.

It was a good study and learning material for bettors.

Time passed again.

I was still trapped in my current location.

Through human conversations, I was able to find out that this was a research lab.

People who experiment on themselves are called researchers.

The exact identity is unknown.

They were simply beings who conducted experiments on themselves and their people.

‘I want them…’ .’

Better felt something tickling in his heart.

And then some parts of Better’s body began to change.

It changed very quickly and then came back to normal.

But the bettor did not miss that brief change.

Something was happening.

How much time has passed?

There were various people in this world.

There were not only monsters like him, but also humans who were more powerful than humans.

The people who destroyed the world they lived in were not ordinary humans.

It was a being called a Hunter.

And researchers who experiment on themselves and their compatriots.

But we still don’t know what their identity is.

One thing is certain.

They killed Better’s own species.

They are the ones who destroyed the world they lived in.

Emotions that had been nothing at first when he had no thoughts were now swirling in Beter’s mind.

My itchy heart began to run wild.

When he realized that, the empty bettor had a goal.

‘I want to kill them.’

The face of the researcher who injected himself with an unknown liquid every day came to mind.

Even the number and location of the dots on the researcher’s face came to mind clearly.

“… ….”

And at the same time, Better’s body began to change.

Better The researcher he thought of.

Luckily, there was no one around.

The lab was dark and no one could see the changes in the bettor.

Once he took on the form of a researcher, Better groped his body.

I opened my mouth.

“Ah….”

A voice comes out.

At the same time, the goal that Better had in mind came out of his mouth.

“… “I will kill them.”

The words flowed clearly and clearly from my mouth.

The tone of voice also became stable.

Anyone could see that he was a bettor who looked like a perfect human being.

At the same time, Better’s body quickly collapsed.

It had returned to its original slime state.

Time passed.

It is about time the concept of time itself disappears.

An opportunity has come to carry out the bettor’s goal.

– Hmm. Is it too much to experiment with slime?

Someone said.

Better knew the owner of this voice well.

A doctor who leads researchers and is in charge of the research institute where he is currently confined.

He was the director of the research institute.

The old lab director’s pure white hair was slicked back.

Unlike the wrinkles on his forehead, his eyes had a menacing look.

– I have no choice. Don’t trash the bettor.

He left the laboratory without saying just one word.

When the director of the research center left, the researchers inside began to act faster.

Everyone approached Better in order to follow the orders of the lab director.

One of the researchers appeared.

He was a guy who injected himself with fluids every day.

At that time, Better stood up.

“!”

All the researchers who paid attention to Better expressed their doubts.

Better got up and quickly changed his body.

The liquid body bubbled and twisted, suddenly taking on the shape of the researcher in front of me.

“What is this…?” !”

Astonishment appeared on the faces of all researchers.

I couldn’t guess what was going on right now.

Why have bettors changed?

In a sudden situation, the accident stopped and my body became rigid.

One thing I knew.

“The experiment was a success.”

But at the same time, it was their defeat.

Better, who looked like a researcher, began to move.

Pow-

With one swing of my hand, the head of the researcher in front of me exploded.

Blood splattered everywhere.

From that point onwards, the researchers started screaming and scrambling to get out of the laboratory.

But Better did not leave them alone.

As if he was trying to vent his anger, he started moving around and eliminating everyone one by one.

Only screams flowed from inside the laboratory.

Vetter continued to move his body as if he was determined to leave no living creature behind.

Some time has passed since the bloody frenzy began.

Better turned over the entire lab, but unfortunately, the director of the lab could not be found.

“What a rat.”

He must have already noticed and pulled away.

It was unfortunate, but there was nothing I could do.

“Is it all over?”

Better looked around.

The inside of the lab was already miserable.

Human support will probably come here soon.

Now I just need to get out of the way.

“Dr. .”

Although he missed it now, he was a bettor who promised himself that one day he would kill it with his own hands.

At that time, the bettor was slowly leaving the laboratory.

【Follow me】

An unknown voice came from somewhere.

Better turned back towards the direction from which the voice was heard.

“Who are you?”

But there was nothing there.

【Serve me】

A voice was heard once again.

From that voice flowed a force that he could not dare to touch.

‘He is a being much higher than me.’

Better thought as he pondered what the voice said.

He said that at first he would follow him.

Next he was told to serve himself.

The unidentified person wanted him.

Of course, the bettor had nowhere to go right now.

No, on the contrary, since he has turned the research institute upside down, the people involved will not leave him alone.

This was a fact he found out after spending a long time at the research institute.

This research institute is run by an unknown organization, and all those who go against its will have disappeared.

Even if it is the same researcher.

Just by looking at that appearance, it was not difficult to predict what his future would be like.

Better closed his eyes for a moment.

Too much has already changed to return to the old normal.

I am a slime, but at the same time, I am not a slime.

All of my compatriots died a long time ago.

There was no longer a being in the world who could represent himself as a slime.

I definitely thought so.

【Slime, follow me】

You must have thought so, but someone who called himself Slime appeared.

“… ….”

An unknown voice.

Better thought for a moment and then made up his mind.

“You….”

I don’t know who the other person is.

But he has someone who wants him.

He has someone who tells him who he is.

That was enough for the bettor.

“I will follow you.”

When the bettor agreed, the air in front of him began to distort.

The distortion continued to grow and soon absorbed the bettor.

* · * *

The scene inside the research center, which was on fire just a moment ago, has changed.

“Dungeon?”

Yes, it was a very familiar yet nostalgic feeling.

Of course, it was not the dungeon he had stayed in in the past.

“Oh, it looks like someone new has appeared.”

And there was someone talking to him.

It was not a human, but a monster like Better.

He welcomed the bettor.

The bettor looked at the other person’s face.

The other person’s face was very handsome.

At the same time, the muscles of the body looked like sculptures.

“… ….”

Better’s head turned to the side.

There were other beings besides the handsome monster.

Amidst a considerable number of ghouls, a human was trembling in fear.

Beside him was a knight armed with black armor and weapons.

Along with the knight, there was also a skeleton holding a large book.

They looked at Better and nodded his head.

The skeleton soon began to write something down.

Better knew instinctively.

Knights and skeletons, they also have great status.

Of course, it was worse than the unidentified voice that spoke to him, but he could at least know that they also had tremendous status and were allies.

“Tick, tick, tick –”

The skeleton, which was still looking at itself and writing something, hit its bones together.

I knew what he meant.

Yes, this is a test.

It was a test of oneself and at the same time an evaluation of the bettor’s own abilities.

The one he swore to serve.

The being recognized his identity.

I don’t know who it was, but it was a moment to express myself for that existence.

Puduk-

Pap-duk-duk-

Better’s body began to twist and change.
