Damn Necromancer

Chapter 404: Higher God (7)

[Breaking news! In the Tartarus star system…… the disaster calling for the destruction of the galaxy, the dimensional predator beast Apocalypse has descended!]

The massive hologram billboards that filled the major planets and the centers of mega cities across the entire galaxy.

The streets, which had been buzzing from the surrender declaration of the 4 great megacorp leaders a moment ago, froze in an instant. The voice of the Galaxy Central Broadcasting anchor, boasting the highest viewership rating in the galaxy, was trembling like an aspen tree with fear.

The tragedy of the Tartarus star system in the screen was truly a living hell.

Every time a dark tentacle was swung once, hundreds of stellar ships burst like dust.

The wide-open maw tore off and swallowed the planet's crust in units of hundreds of kilometers.

"Nonsense……."

"Apocalypse. That's the monster that blew away half the galaxy hundreds of years ago!"

"How was the seal released! Tens of thousands of state-of-the-art ships evaporated in an instant! We're all dead now!"

The tens of billions of citizens gathered in the plaza slumped down and grabbed their heads. The mercenaries clinking glasses in the pubs and the merchants haggling over goods in the cyber arcades all lost their minds and merely stared at the holograms.

The military expert urgently deployed to the broadcasting studio also tore at his tie and spat out a despairing commentary.

[It's over. In front of Apocalypse's gravity wave, even the state-of-the-art quantum shield is merely a sheet of paper. It is the monster that the megacorp united fleet barely sealed in the past by grinding up hundreds of millions of lives. With our current military power, it is absolutely impossible to stop…… Uh? O-over there on the screen……!]

It was before the expert's words could even finish.

Jijik―!

In the middle of the battlefield where merciless destruction was occurring, the gap of a pitch-black subspace opened, and a familiar silhouette appeared.

It was the Death Lord Kim Minwoo, the man fluttering his black coat.

"Uh? That person…… Isn't he the man who just brought the megacorp leaders to their knees?"

"Nonsense! That's inside a gravity field where even stellar battleships get crumpled! How is he standing in outer space with his bare body?"

While the citizens were astonished, massive shadows poured out like a storm from Kim Minwoo's waist on the screen. Cedric's blood-red spear strike cleaved through outer space, and Merhen's orbital bombardment-class magic circle covered the sky.

[Wh-what is this……! Apocalypse, which was called the disaster of the galaxy, is being pushed back unilaterally! Unidentified undead are literally tearing apart the predator beast's outer shell!!]

The anchor screamed with bulging veins.

The viewers doubted their two eyes.

The cosmic horror, which had crumpled the megacorp fleets they believed to be invincible like trash in a wastebasket, was being beaten by a mere three subordinates and was scattering pitch-black bodily fluids into space.

Monsters of a different dimension hunting a monster.

And the apex of that overwhelming raid was none other than Kim Minwoo.

On the screen, Apocalypse deployed a massive black hole in a final desperate struggle.

The surrounding ship debris and planetary fragments were sucked into the darkness where not even light could escape. The tens of billions of citizens watching held their breaths in unison.

However, Kim Minwoo leisurely raised his blue sword high even in front of that overwhelming destruction.

Paaaat―!

A chilling pitch-black trajectory that looked like it would tear through the screen plunged into the center of the black hole.

At that moment, a bizarre phenomenon that smashed the common sense of the universe occurred. The black hole that swallowed everything twisted like a beast infected by a fatal deadly poison, and then crumbled from its edges, decaying into ash-colored powder.

A rule-breaking that thoroughly ignored the laws of physics and sentenced death to the phenomenon of a black hole itself.

And as the scythe cleaved the vacuum one more time, Apocalypse's massive head vainly rolled around in outer space.

[…….]

[…….]

The Galaxy Central Broadcasting studio, which had been recording the highest viewership rating in the galaxy. Both the anchor holding the microphone and the military expert who had been crying out in despair merely stared blankly at the hologram with their mouths open. A heavy silence, feeling as if one would gasp and stop breathing if lightly tapped, spread across the entire galaxy through the broadcasting network.

"……He killed it."

Someone slumped in the corner of the plaza muttered with a trembling voice.

"He hacked the disaster of the galaxy to pieces…… in just 10 minutes."

"A god……. That person, is a true god!"

At that time, someone shouted from among the astonished crowd.

"Wait! Then what about the megacorp leaders who voluntarily bowed their heads to that Death Lord earlier……?"

"Oh my god! Did the megacorps' foresight reach this far? What would have happened if the leaders hadn't submitted out of arrogance!"

"Naturally, the Death Lord wouldn't have stepped forward!"

"Goodness…… That's the only good thing those greedy capitalists have done since they were born. They didn't donate half their profits, it turns out they signed up for the most certain disaster insurance in the universe!"

"To not get on the bad side of such an absolute and immediately claim to be a subcontractor, what judgment. As expected, those who grasped and shook the galaxy have different survival instincts to begin with!"

Uwaaaaaaaa―!!

A roar bursting simultaneously from tens of thousands of planets and tens of billions of cities in the galaxy shook the universe.

It was a primal and blind faith toward the savior.

If the emotion that burst out when Kim Minwoo brought the megacorp leaders to their knees was awe toward power, the emotion currently exploding across the entire galaxy was perfect worship.

The anchor, coming back to his senses, slammed the desk and bulged his veins.

[It's a miracle!! No, even the word miracle is insufficient!! The great disaster that the galaxy's united fleet could not stop even after sacrificing hundreds of millions of people in the past…… has been butchered in just 10 minutes by the hands of the great Death Lord! And citizens! We have only now realized the deep foresight of the megacorp leaders! They did not sell out the universe, they made a noble decision to bring a true savior to this galaxy!]

The experts also threw away their dignity and enthusiastically agreed while foaming at the mouth.

[That is correct! What if the leaders had held onto their paltry pride and opposed the Lord? We would have already perished before being eaten by Apocalypse! The leaders' overwhelmingly fast shift in attitude saved our galaxy!]

[Long live the great Death Lord! We send praise to the 1st-tier subcontractors who showed great foresight!!]

The rare spectacle of experts clasping their two hands, praying, and wailing in front of live cameras was being broadcast across the entire universe.

＊ ＊ ＊

At the same time, above the hacked corpse of Apocalypse.

Kim Minwoo narrowed his eyes at the loud system notifications hitting his ears.

Ttiring―! Ttiririring―!

[Massive blind faith runs wild across the entire galaxy!]

[Explosive faith data firmly tempers the status of a Higher God even more!]

[Your divine name and status are engraved across the entire universe!]

Prayers pouring into his head.

At that massive pumping of faith, Kim Minwoo let out a pishik laugh.

"It's a perfect creative economy."

He didn't have any grand sense of duty to save the universe in the first place. He had merely physically excluded the uninvited guest gnawing at the infrastructure that had been transferred into his ownership.

However, as a result, the cost of the broken infrastructure was more than covered by Apocalypse's high-performance bones, and as a bonus, he had even absorbed the faith of the entire galaxy like a black hole.

It meant he had perfectly grasped capital, military power, and even faith in his hands.

"Huu."

Kim Minwoo scanned the massive debris of Apocalypse with a satisfied gaze and casually rested Hell Rhapsody on his shoulder with a tuk.

The first official task he undertook after being promoted to a Higher God was a perfect and overwhelming debut match announcing that a new absolute had descended upon the stage of this massive Galaxy.

He brought the old power known as megacorps to their knees as subcontractors, butchered a cosmic disaster alone, and even squeezed out the title of the savior of tens of billions of lifeforms in a single breath.

As a true god, could there be a more successful initiation ceremony than this.

"However, I can't manage this vast universe by running on my own two feet every time."

Kim Minwoo's gaze rested on the planet-sized bones of Apocalypse once again.

Suddenly, the High Priest of the Shadow Cult he had left behind on Earth, Fersen, came to mind. Didn't even that arrogant old man flaunt his power by floating a massive ark in the sky above New York.

"I am nominally a Higher God and a cosmic major shareholder, so I can't swim in a vacuum with my bare body forever. It's time to pick out at least one private plane fitting my status."

There was not even 1 second of thought needed on how to make it. It was one of the authorities spewed by the Mythical-rank item Kim Minwoo was wearing on his head, the Crown of the Death Lord.

[Crown of the Death Lord ― Effect 4. Repository of Knowledge is activated!]

[The blueprint for the super-massive undead fusion transmutation circle is engraved in your mind!]

Repository of Knowledge. The ability that activated various undead production techniques in his mind.

Surprisingly, this was also applied exactly as is to undead-type mounts.

A massive mothership.

And a super-massive undead mothership imbued with death mana at that.

Even the perfect blueprint and production method of that mothership were inherent within the Repository of Knowledge. Thanks to that, without needing to think complicatedly, he just needed to supply the highest-grade materials and that was it.

As his thoughts reached that point, Kim Minwoo floated a hologram communication in the empty air without hesitation.

Ppibibibik―!

[Connection to the 1st-tier Subcontractor (Megacorp) Board of Directors complete!]

"Megacorp leaders."

"D-Death Lord! No, oh great savior! Please just give us your command!"

"Among what you possess, where is the most massive state-of-the-art ship construction dock in this galaxy?"

Not knowing the reason, the leaders called out the coordinates of the most massive military base, and Kim Minwoo immediately shoved Apocalypse's corpse whole into his subspace before leaping through dimensions toward the dock.

It was the prelude to the most terrible and bizarre super-massive undead space mothership construction project in the history of the universe.
