The Jelly Alien Will Save You!
Episode 77
“A Xion is devouring another Xion.”
One of the team members suddenly grimaced.
“Are you saying that thing is a Xion? Does that small thing look like a Xion to you, Captain?”
“Then what do you think it is?”
Gong Ju Won asked back.
He planned to use this opportunity with Jelly to remind them once again that the Contaminated Area was not a place to be taken lightly.
“I…”
He was at a loss for words.
Jelly was too small and cute to be considered a Xion.
But what if that was all camouflage?
This was the Contaminated Area. If something strong enough to easily annihilate Xions like that wasn’t a Xion, then what else could it be?
With that thought, he felt an intimidating presence from the small Jelly’s body. So sudden and intense that even he couldn’t understand it.
Biting his lips, he adjusted his body cam. He angled it so Jelly would be clearly visible.
At that moment, a rumbling sound came from the sky.
“…?!”
Gong Ju Won instinctively commanded.
“Everyone get down!”
Before those words even finished, the sky split open.
And light shot down vertically.
“Damn.”
The moment someone cursed.
A silvery carp-like form revealed itself within the light, then its body began to shed. As if molting.
Everyone watching had their eyes fixed on that beautiful sight.
It wasn’t mutation or rampage. It was different from any Xion behavior they knew.
A massive form twisted its body above the pond.
Its spine surged upward and stretched long, and the carp’s head split open wide.
Could that really be called a Xion?
It was something far more sacred than that.
“A dragon?”
Someone muttered.
That was impossible.
Dragons were folklore, and Xions were disasters.
Yet the being before their eyes had the form of folklore and the scale of disaster.
All the mist around the pond was sucked into the light. The pavilion creaked but didn’t collapse.
As the soldiers crouched down, a small figure positioned at the edge of the pavilion came into their view.
The small Jelly stood at the edge of the light without retreating a single step, watching everything.
Like a god.
“A god…?”
Jelly made the dragon palm-sized and pulled it into its embrace.
Then it looked around.
As if it knew they were there and was searching for them.
Gulp.
Dry saliva went down the soldiers’ throats.
Then, a whale’s cry echoed – “Ooooh.”
The soldiers felt their faces turn pale as they looked up at the sky.
A new Xion was coming toward where the light had struck down.
Which was exactly where they were.
The team members froze in place while looking at the sky, as if someone was grabbing their ankles.
Bounce! Bounce! Bounce!
Meanwhile, Jelly was bouncing around happily upon seeing the newly appeared Xion.
It felt too bizarre that the Jelly that had just devoured a Xion was now happy to see another Xion.
Gong Ju Won didn’t miss this moment and shouted.
“Quickly evacuate the operation area! Move!”
As he began moving while crouched low, the team members stealthily and swiftly left the operation area.

Seeing the light shot from the sky, my companions came to pick me up.
Riding on Older Sister Bora who had transformed into a whale, I looked down below.
Then Wuparupa peeked its head out from my embrace.
It had changed from a dragon to Wuparupa after becoming my Planet Mon.
Anyway, it evolved, didn’t it? Are you satisfied?
I asked with my eyes while stroking Yeonjam’s head.
Seeming pleased, Yeonjam’s gills fluttered.
‘But still…’
I don’t know why a new title is blinking.
[You have obtained the title ‘Little God?’]
-You appear more sleek and mysterious when receiving light.
-When giving mystique to others, they perceive the target as a superior species.
According to Chae Heon’s explanation, titles are created by perceptions spread among people.
So that means someone is perceiving me like this (Little God?)…
Who was watching me?
Secretly? I felt chills and my shoulders trembled.
Then Older Brother Jae Hee asked in disbelief.
“Dam A, what is that thing?”
“Millennium Carp!”
At my words, the baby fist-sized Wuparupa cutely blinked its eyes.
“Wuparupa is?”
Older Brother Jae Hee’s expression didn’t seem surprised at all, but this was his top-level very surprised expression.
I giggled.
It was a creature that was hard to see even in games, so it was natural for Older Brother Jae Hee to be surprised.
“So you obtained that too?”
Older Brother Jae Hee asked with expectant eyes.
“You mean this?”
I carefully took out the glowing orb I had been treasuring.
The very item that made me not regret a few golden carp!
“There really was such a thing?”
When Older Brother Jae Hee’s eyes widened in surprise, Chae Heon, who had been quietly watching from the side, asked.
“What is that?”
I giggled and said.
“A money windfall.”
I proudly raised the dragon orb toward the sky.
Then the sky began to rumble once again.
[Dragon orb energy emission detected]
[Beginning Cosmic Coin conversion.]
Flash!
Lightning-like light struck down above my head and coins poured out.
It was literally a money windfall.
Clink, clink, clink
The coins absorbed into my body.
Chae Heon shouted with his mouth agape, looking incredulous.
“It really was a money shower?!”
Older Brother Jae Hee calmly patted my head with his hand as if he had expected this.
“The youngest’s head is going to crack.”
“It’s okay. It didn’t hurt at all.”
I didn’t really feel anything, should I say.
More importantly, it was about the money!
+100,000cc
Hmm, 100,000 isn’t bad.
Just as I was thinking that.
As if that wasn’t the end, money continued to rain down on my head one after another.
Flash!
+100,000cc
Flash! Flash!
+200,000cc
Flash!
+100,000cc
Flash!
+100,000cc
I was almost on the verge of fainting from the continuous money shower.
I checked my coin balance before passing out from being hit by the money shower.
[Cosmic Coin Balance: 780,000cc]
After that, everything went black.
