"Uh......h What the hell is going on......"

The first girl pressed her forehead and muttered quietly. She even had to hold her hands against the wall to be able to stand up slowly.

What came back from the wall turned out to be a kind of cold touch. Fighting a severe headache, she tried to concentrate and get her vision back.

However, when her gaze returned, she was not at all aware of what she was seeing.

The cold touch of your fingers is a kind of metal. Yes, just a metal. The first girl's understanding of metal bodies made her immediately distinguish that this was a expensive alloy of rhenium and tungsten.

The problem is, it was a whole wall of metal made entirely of tungsten-rhenium alloy!

No, it's definitely more than just a wall. To be precise, she was now in a huge, empty hall built entirely of tungsten-rhenium alloy.

The first girl had no idea why she was here, and she didn't even have any impression of it.

Yes, not at all. It's like waking up one day and finding yourself in this inexplicable place.

If it weren't for the cold metallic touch in her hands, she wouldn't even wonder if it was some illusory dream.

There were strange ringing noises in my head, as if someone had forcibly poured something into my head.

It's a little unbearable, but now is not the time to calm down.

She took a deep breath and reached out to touch the wall.

If it was a concrete wall, she might not be able to do anything about it. But the metal wall gave her some opportunities. The metal quickly softens as far as it reaches until it becomes liquid and flows down.

Freedom to control metal objects, this is the ability she possesses. Although she can't really do what she wants, she can still do it if she just changes form without specific control.

Soon, a large hole was opened in the wall for people to enter and exit. She took a few breaths and cautiously walked out of the hole.

Then she saw hell.

Crimson and black-red, stained with silver-white metal, and even mixed with blue-white lumps, as if something had pierced and exploded from within. The fermented meat has a fishy smell that is simply unbearable.

"Uh......h Gross!"

The first girl fell on the ground and vomited.

It looks like it's supposed to be a research institute somewhere. However, the researchers in white coats had apparently become the same pile of unacceptable things no matter how they were described.

Where the hell is this? What's really going on in this place?

Even the first girl, whose stomach pouch seemed to have been turned upside down, couldn't think about it at this time, she could only follow her instinctive reaction and vomit desperately, as if she wanted to take out everything in her body.

When she was finally able to stop vomiting, her pretty face, which had been pretty, turned pale from the exhaustion.

But this kind of thing is ugly, and she can't care about it at all now.

Just by seeing this scene in front of them, anyone will understand that something terrible must have happened. That said, it's still extremely dangerous.

The moment I realized this—

"Oh? Is there still a survivor in the old way? ”

From the girl's side, another girl's voice was heard.

The girl turned her head to look, and as far as the eye could see, she saw the body of the second girl.

It was a girl about twelve years old, with short black hair that touched her shoulder blades, and she looked cold, as if she had suddenly appeared there.

No, it should be said that from the beginning, the girl was there. I just deliberately waited until the first girl recovered before I spoke.

"Wait a minute, you seem to be very naïve? Don't...... Is it a 'random test subject'? ”

The first girl didn't understand her at all, and the second girl didn't seem to have the meaning to explain. She just raised her hand, and the next moment-

Rumble!!!!

The sound of an explosion rang out in the enclosed space.

From her hand, a gas about three meters in length spewed out violently like a gun. At this distance, the girl should have even been blown away directly. But......

Unexpectedly, in front of the first girl, countless metal needles formed a ball of thorns, enveloping her body. It is a metal shield that twists each metal needle into a certain geometric shape to present a metal shield similar to the structure of a Klein bottle inside the sphere. The gas gun rushes into the gap between the spheres, rings in specially shaped air ducts, and is finally exited from the air ducts on both sides of the sphere, causing a high-pitched whistling sound.

Unscathed, the second girl with short black hair widened her eyes in surprise.

In fact, compared with the second girl, the first girl herself is the most surprising person.

That's right, her ability is the manipulation of metal, and it's full of metal. However, she simply could not reach such an extent. Moreover, she didn't have any awareness of using her ability just now, and she couldn't react at all.

That's a fully automatic protection rollout.

After the surprise, the second girl suddenly completely ruined her cold image and laughed.

"Ahaha, what is this? What is this? Will the 'random test subjects' as a comparator be successful? Silk flag, did you see that? You are an honor student, you can just find goods on the road! Hahahaha!"

The second girl ignored the confused first girl in front of her and smiled backwards.

But then, her laughter stopped abruptly.

Because, she heard footsteps.

It was just the sound of footsteps, no sound of the electronic protective door being opened, and no sound of metal deformation.

It was just the sound of footsteps without warning in the empty metal room that was completely enclosed.

In an extremely strange atmosphere, the two girls slowly cast their eyes in a certain direction.

There, at some point or from somewhere, a third maiden came to them.

It looked like he was about fourteen years old, another girl.

The eyes of the third girl were godless, but they were as bright as the stars of the midnight.

It's like looking at some distant friend, ignoring them. Just unconsciously, going in a certain direction.

(That's ...... Tokiwadai's school uniform? Another "random test subject"? ）

The second girl turned around quickly, her right hand raised sharply. The gas spear unleashed a burst spiral of wind and slammed into the third girl.

Immediately, she experienced a second and even stranger surprise today.

The third girl didn't even do anything. She just let the gas gun pass through her body and did nothing. The problem is, it turns out that nothing happened.

Yes, nothing happened at all.

Although she was overwhelmed with surprise, in the face of the third girl who was slowly approaching, the second girl jerked her heel and kicked her head high.

Her kick and her body went straight through the third girl's body, completely unobstructed.

The third girl is like a false image that doesn't exist here, and no one can touch her. But at the same time, it's real. At least every step she takes, on solid metal ground, there's no doubt about it.

Why is this unbelievable happening?

It's as if it was a separate event that jumped out of the dimension.

Under the gaze of the two of them, the third girl continued to walk slowly with a hollow, blank look until she reached the metal wall. And then......

Without stopping, as if the obstacle in front of him did not exist, he walked into the metal wall and disappeared behind the wall.

Completely, unable to utter anything. This kind of thing is just too hard to understand.

Unfortunately, there is no time left for them to understand.

The entire metal room began to shake violently like an earthquake, as if something was constantly pounding into the completely metal space, making it impossible to even stand.

At the same time, a feeling that is more strange than the third girl, and with an obvious sense of depression, is rising from the hearts of these two girls.

If the second girl was able to remain undominated by this terrible sense of oppression, the first girl was almost completely unable to stand up.

(It's coming!) ）

Almost intuitively, the second girl was preoccupied with a defensive posture.

She's not good at defense, or not at all. But at this moment, even she had to put on a defensive posture. Because that terrible feeling has far surpassed herself.

Smack!

There seems to be something that gently falls with the sound of it.

Bang!

With a loud roar, a large piece of the metal wall, which seemed to have no gaps, fell entirely.

From behind the fallen wall, an unknown liquid oozed. The unidentified liquid spilled onto the metal floor, flowing without any power.

(Could it be that someone who has the ability to fluid?) ）

As soon as the second girl had the idea, the liquid on the ground began to spin at high speed.

Like a typhoon, it rotates in a frantic manner.

It was a liquid typhoon, sweeping everything in its path with a sweeping momentum. It only took a few seconds for the metal room to become empty.

Along with the tragic image created by the second girl, it will be eliminated without leaving a trace.

"It's ...... What monsters? ”

Even the second girl couldn't help but spit out skeptical words.

The swirling liquid stopped all movement in an instant at the result of her words, and stood up like a cobra in an attacking stance.

At this time, the posture of this mass of liquid is almost completely devoid of thickness. It's almost as if there are only two dimensions in its body. When it is rolled up in this posture, it has a third dimension.

It was definitely the weirdest thing the two girls had ever seen.

For some reason, this thing feels like it's whimpering.

In less than 0.1 seconds, the thing opened out in both directions.

At this moment, the second girl felt a fear that went deep into her bones. Almost instinctively, she shot the gas gun into the ground, quickly throwing herself backwards.

This act of hers saved her own life.

The object opened its mouth.

It's not true to say it's a mouth, because it's just a thing that just closes up two parts that are barely thick.

It didn't take any time at all to get to where the two girls were, and then they closed.

The reformed metal sphere quickly formed a shield in front of the first girl, trying to keep the large mouth without thickness out.

The second girl was not able to fully witness the process. But as her feet hit the ground, she heard the sound of metal shattering from where she had been.

"Ah...... Ahhhh......h Woo !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ah ”

The girl's screams echoed through the metal room.

Even the second girl's destructive gas spear was able to block the metal body, and the monster was shattered after only a moment.

The monster is now biting the legs of the first girl with its shapeless "mouth". Crimson liquid kept splashing out of that "mouth", and the "snapping" sound of bones breaking was terrifying.

"No...... No!! Stop it!!! Save me!!!! Help me, ahh!!!!!!!!!!h ”

The first girl screamed hoarsely, and the metal floor, ceiling, and walls of the room turned into sharp thorns, blades, swords, and everything imaginable, desperately piercing, cutting, and pulling at the monster's limbs.

However, nothing worked. It's like cutting a shadow with a knife, it doesn't do anything at all.

Click, click.

The body of the first girl is being chewed and devoured inch by inch, starting from the feet.

Can't stay here anymore!

The overwhelming fear crushes the second girl, who thought she wouldn't be afraid of anything anymore. As the monster devoured the first girl, she pressed her hands against the metal wall and unleashed the gas gun with all her might.

With the sound of the explosion, the wall was blasted through by the directional impact. The second girl immediately ran out of the open hole, and she even used the recoil of the gas gun to speed herself, and she didn't even have the courage to look back.

Such a monster has exceeded the psychological limit of what anyone can bear.

In this metal room, where there was no one anymore, the screams of the first girl were fading until they ......

Ka!

The metal object that was constantly resisting stopped all changes and became a solidified landscape.

Because, the life that resides in the body has been far away from the first girl.

For some reason, the disembodied monster also stopped all of its movements. At this time, the body of the first girl was only above the chest.

The young girl's flesh was chewed inch by inch, starting from her feet, and she lost her life in the most brutal way. A look of despair full of pain and horror was forever fixed on that pretty face.

The disembodied monster reverted to its liquid form, regaining its original form with more and more pronounced whimpering.

Gradually forming out of the liquid is the true form of this disembodied monster.

The figure that emerged from the liquid was whimpering quietly.

"Uh......h Whining...... Woowoooo......oo

Stretching out his hands, he caressed the lifeless face of the first girl, and the fourth girl let out a cry of sorrow.
