The capital star of the Knox race was destroyed more than 30 years ago. After the catastrophic explosion that shocked all the races in the interstellar space, the destroyed planet was also reduced to an abandoned planet, and it will never be seen again. Prosperity.
Because it is already an abandoned planet, and this planet is the source of the big explosion that caused the inexplicable black nightmare in the interstellar space, this star field has not been passed by any starships in these years.
Even if it is a merchant ship, when going to the star field adjacent to the area where Attia is located, it will choose to take a detour by default.
In other words, this star field is equivalent to a blind spot in the current interstellar space.
The space rift that was torn open over Atiyah was expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye, but no one noticed such an abrupt and terrifying scene.
Including the Covenant, no one found it.
The ruined city on the planet looks like a broken wall, with occasional bursts of sand and dust rising, and the crack torn open in the gray sky seems to finally be wide enough, and through this huge crack, a behemoth emerges—
It was a black battleship that was even bigger than Gaia. After coming out of the crack, it completely obscured the already dark sky of Atiyah, as if it had swallowed all the sunlight, and cast a boundless patch on the earth. Deep shadows.
"Arrived at the target space."
The voice without emotion came from the mouth of a sergeant dressed as a soldier, but in fact, before the other party spoke, all the soldiers on the battleship had already received the other party's communication of consciousness expressing this idea.
Communication through language is something that other races only need, and it is not necessary for the "Serra" group.
It can be seen that in this incomparably huge black battleship, judging from the difference in the appearance of the soldiers on the post, these soldiers are obviously from a variety of different races.
But this is actually just an appearance, every soldier in this battleship now belongs to the group of Sierra.
The ontology consciousness of these soldiers has been deprived and eliminated, and they have become the shells that can be controlled by Sierra's boarding, just like the virus invades the host, and after eliminating the ontology consciousness, they forcibly gain control of the body.
This is the characteristic of a strange life form like Serra.
Sierra is a life form that cannot see the form. There are countless individuals in this group, but they have a unified consciousness.
Because to the most powerful individual in the group, other individuals will adopt an attitude of absolute obedience, and the individual with the most powerful consciousness is the "king" in the Sierra group, who can dominate the will of the entire group.
This strange life form, Sierra, was originally born in a relatively barren universe. They feed on various emotions, especially negative emotions, generated by individuals of other races. At the same time, they also grab all energy substances and make groups evolve in the process of plundering. more powerful and perfect.
The relatively barren universe was plundered in a short time, and when a world was destroyed, the Sierra group would go to the next destination that could be plundered.
The ability to cross planes to other universes is something that the Sierra group possesses, and other life forms have unparalleled superiority.
Every chosen world is unavoidable, destroyed in a terrible catastrophe that cannot be resisted.
The only exception is the universe in which they are currently arriving.
The looting was supposed to begin in this universe more than thirty years ago, but in the same place as now, a race in this universe called the Knox thwarted their plans.
They would rather destroy them with self-destructing attacks. As living beings with extremely high intelligence, the Sierras admit that this race called Knox is the most powerful they have encountered in so many universes they have reached. of a race.
Power is beauty, which is the aesthetic of the Sierra people.
So before suffering a rare blow and having to leave the universe in the shock, the Sierras put a mark on the only surviving cub egg, and left some other gifts for this world. .
The gift is what people in this world call the black nightmare disease. Black patterns similar to totems gradually appear on the skin of the sick person. When the totem covers the whole body, the sick person completely loses control of the body.
The people in this world only know the above situation. In fact, when the sick person is covered with such black lines, the Sierras can invade each other's consciousness and gain body control in an instant.
Black Nightmare can almost be understood as a "virus" spread by the Sierras in order to more easily invade the bodies of other living beings.
The imprint on the baby egg is different. Although that imprint is somewhat similar to the totem pattern of the Black Nightmare Disease, it is not the same thing.
It was just said that the Sierra tribe will use the emotions of other races, especially the negative emotions, as food. When this black mark is placed on an individual, it will act as a catalyst for the darkness in the individual's heart.
Slight displeasure can turn into anger, boredom into hatred, and growing darkness slowly pushes people into madness.
The more angry and resentful, the more this emotion can become a delicious food for the Sierras.
But because they agree that the Knox is a beautiful race, the Sierras do not want to deprive the only surviving Knox of consciousness. They want to absorb the consciousness of this Knox into their group and let the other party become them a member of .
Other races in this world do not know their existence. After they leave, they will only think that the Knox race has done things that should not be done, causing their own demise and bringing disaster to the world.
The surviving baby egg will be treated hostilely by these races after it is broken and born. Not surprisingly, the black mark on this Knox will become darker and darker.
Having arrived in so many universes, the world where the Knox race lives is a rare world where the Sierras feel that it might be a little troublesome to plunder.
If the surviving Knox wants to destroy the world because of hatred after growing up, then letting the other party disintegrate several forces first will also be of good help to their subsequent attacks.
It was originally planned that way.
Suffering an accidental injury in the target world this time, the Sierras who were forced to leave can only choose to go to the low-level plane, that is to say, dormant again in the universe where various ethnic civilizations have not yet developed much, plundering the material energy of this low-level universe to repair the injury .
After recovering from the injury, the Sierras did not choose to attack the previous target world immediately.
This world is a little more difficult, they choose to wait for that Knox to grow, and during the waiting period, they go to other worlds to extract resources and make themselves stronger.
But after plundering several worlds, the Sierras went to sense the reaction of the black mark again, but the result was not as expected.
Instead of deepening as they thought, this mark was gradually fading, and the darkness that Knox could see in the heart of the marked Knox became less and less due to unknown reasons.
Not only that, the Sierras found that the various forces in this universe hardly fought any more wars under the stability of an interstellar organization called the "Covenant".
The Covenant has maintained the peace of this world, so the civilizations of all ethnic groups in this universe have entered a golden age of development in these years—
This is the only world with exceptions in the process of wanton plunder by the Sierra tribe. The Sierras have always reserved a little bit of dread about this target world.
Originally wanted to wait and reap the benefits of the fisherman, but now it seems that this target world is developing in a direction that is unfavorable to them.
Don't let it go, or it may increase the difficulty of destruction.
After the monstrous black battleship came out of the huge crack that was torn apart in the sky, the battleship aimed its direction at the planet called Shilorin in this universe.
That's where the Covenant headquarters is located.
There is a deviation from the plan, which must be corrected immediately—
Compared with Gaia, the winter of Shilorin is very short, and it is now early spring.
Spring is full of vitality. The trees of Shilorin have pulled out new young shoots, and the soothing green is growing, depicting a new life full of vitality on this planet.
Since it is where the headquarters of the Covenant is located, Shilorin Star is of course very prosperous. This planet is quite famous in the entire interstellar space.
Whether it is tourists from other planets or aboriginal people, there is a smile on the face of every pedestrian on the streets of Shilorin.
Sirorin is a planet rated as a fairly high happiness index.
Opposite to the smiles on people's faces is the looming gloom.
At this time, neither the Star Alliance nor Xie Luan, who was still sleeping in the Yunbao branch with a Knox half-circling his waist with his tail, was unaware of the arrival of this enemy he had never met.
