Soul of Searing Steel

Chapter 970: Sweep across a thousand stars

Views:

After hearing the warnings and prompts from the system, Kreller used the Shadow Path to return to the Elma battleship as quickly as he could.

The 'Extreme Virus' is such a weird thing. Even if he has the golden flame armor given by Marshal Radcliffe to protect himself, Krelle is still unwilling to stay in that dangerous environment for a long time. ... Moreover, the Xinba family is dead, and there are indeed not many clues in that place. If you can stay less for one second, you will lose one second.

call!

And when Krelle followed the shadow and returned to the battleship, what greeted him was a transparent isolation cabin under the hood, and a full set of high-energy radiation exposure.

The six-color elemental radiance converged into white light, mixed with magical flames. This 'magic fire' that was enough to incinerate ordinary cities to ashes purified his whole person from beginning to end. Krelle, who was protected by armor, was naturally He was not harmed, but he could see that during the process of high-energy radiation exposure, small flames ignited in the gaps in the armor around Krelle - that was the part where some of the extreme virus cells were hidden, and they were not completely eliminated until now.

"I'm sorry, but this is necessary."

Outside the isolation cabin, Elma controlled the magic fire to clean it back and forth, as carefully as bathing a cat. She said in a soft tone: "Although I am sure that this virus cannot infect me, it may come from you." It was transferred to me, making me unknowingly its host—I’m afraid this is what happened to the Xinba family, who were infected by a commander-level Amos carrying the virus.”

"It's normal. This is an extraordinary plague—in my hometown, I have to be quarantined and observed for at least three months."

Krelle naturally didn't take this to heart. He smiled first, then carefully took out a small test tube bottle and handed it to Elma on the other side of the crystal isolation cabin: "The extreme virus sample you want, Be careful not to leak it. I can't wear armor anytime and anywhere. According to the system evaluation left by the general, this virus can even consume the power of the soul and force 'extreme evolution'!"

In other words, if an individual infected with this virus is not very lucky, even his soul will not be able to escape, and the final outcome will be death.

Elma did not answer, but her movements were extremely careful. She could see that the crystal-like transparent isolation cover began to squirm, and then stretched out a small translucent tentacle, took the test tube bottle in Kreler's hand, and held it tightly. Wrapped and sealed in it - Kreller noticed that the other party released at least seven pieces of gold in three seconds, the ultimate sealing magic. It seems that Elma's self-proclaimed "peak ultimate" strength is indeed true. Just with this skill, he can be called a master in Mycroft's world.

Kreiler's disinfection went through nine completely different processes, from sudden changes in high and low temperatures to vacuuming, from plasma facial dressing to dissociation bathing. When he was determined to be 100% safe, he could finally emerge from the isolation cabin. When she walked out, Elma, who had already started experimenting to explore what the 'extreme virus' was, was muttering to herself in a shocked voice.

"This structure... this virus is at least hundreds of years ahead of us in terms of biotechnology!"

"No! Even more than that!"

A test tube containing some extreme viruses was placed in the center of piles of biological and magical instruments. Elma carefully observed its shape in all directions. She discovered that although this virus seemed to have a simple structure, it was actually very complex. Incredibly complex - for example, if the genetic material of an ordinary virus simply stores information, then the genetic material of the 'Extreme Virus' can be said to be an atomic-level three-dimensional array! It not only stores far more information than ordinary viruses, but can also achieve many functions that ordinary viruses simply cannot achieve.

In other words, the so-called extreme virus is essentially a 'living spell' that can self-replicate, self-reproduce, is highly contagious, lethal, extremely difficult to kill, and extremely adaptable. Elma can confirm that, The Royal Court of Amos does not have the ability to create this kind of virus. Their technology and extraordinary power follow the footsteps of Emperor Amos and are biased towards the macroscopic and huge type.

"So scary!"

After listening to Elma's story, Krelle was shocked on the spot after disarming his armor. He looked worried: "No, this news must be told to the marshal... It must be told to my hometown as soon as possible!"

Compared with the Royal Court, where only a few million Amos people live in the world, the population density of the Mycrov civilization is much greater. If there are no preventive measures, the problem that can be solved by martial law for the Amos people will be a huge disaster. disaster! I hope that the natural teacher and the fishman high priest can know the news as soon as possible and develop specific defense methods against this virus... When I think of the strange corpses of the Xinba family in the settlement, and the spread of this highly intense extraordinary virus among the population , Kreller shuddered.

Elma glanced sideways at Krelle, who was frowning and worried, and then comforted: "Don't worry, according to your marshal's power, I'm afraid he already knew about it the first moment you came into contact with the extreme virus. -Um?"

Raising her head suddenly, Elma looked at a certain place in the originally silent void. There, rapid fluctuations of time and space came, and as the gray-silver time and space doors opened, eight large biological void ships with a total length of more than three kilometers were revealed. The battleship slowly flew out of it, floating in the void in a circular formation.

This biological spaceship has a strange shape, in the shape of an inverted pyramid, with its sharp-edged body rotating slowly like a drill, and the sharp bottom end surrounded by layers of conspicuous energy rings. The shapes of the eight spaceships are generally the same. The difference lies in the color, size and number of the rings. Among them, the biological warship with the largest number of rings immediately discovered the one not far away after leaving the space-time gate. Elma, and moved closer to her direction.

"A typical 'inverted pyramid', these ships are the 'Emperor's Guards'."

Elma's mimicry humanoid frowned, and she explained in a low voice to Kreiler who was confused at the side: "Although the Emperor himself does not need guards at all, there are always a group of people responsible for doing things for the Emperor and handling sundries. , and that group of fighting Amos who only accept direct orders from the Emperor are the Emperor's Guards."

"Each of them has a 'commander level' (intermediate to peak level of ultimate consciousness) power. I also served as an emperor's guard for a period of time..."

"Elma, it's you."

Before Elma could finish speaking, a spiritual message came from the approaching leader's Inverted Pyramid Battleship. The voice was quite surprising: "I haven't seen you in seventy-four years. You are staying in such a remote place. "

"Kuros, what on earth is going on?"

Elma obviously knew the Emperor's Guard, so she had no intention of concealing her doubts. As she asked forward, she explained to Krelle: "Kuros is the most important member of the new generation among the Emperor's Guards. There is an individual who hopes to reach the level of 'general'. Seventy-four years ago, I worked with him on the front line for a period of time, so we are... acquaintances."

On the other side, Kuros didn't know that there was actually a visitor from another world in the body of his acquaintance, so he didn't say much, but said seriously: "No matter what you guess or know, don't tell anyone about it now. The Royal Court will take care of everything, so don’t worry about it without permission.”

"Then, at least tell me, what happened in the royal court?"

In the void, two large warships faced each other in the air, and invisible spiritual waves surged: "All the 137 star areas on the frontier are under martial law, each is independent, no information is exchanged, and materials are fully rationed - if at this time, there is an enemy attack , we may have to wait a few weeks before we know the news!”

"disaster."

Kuros replied succinctly. After a moment of pause, he continued: "Don't worry about the border... This is the only thing I can believe. The disasters encountered by the Thakur people are far greater than us. We have no time to take care of ourselves, but they cannot protect themselves." .”

"For the sake of the time when we guarded the Great Nebula Fortress together, Kuros, at least say something valuable."

Confirming her conjecture through the other party's words, and combined with the situation of the Extreme Virus, Elma had roughly guessed the current situation, but she still tried to get more information: "I used to be an Emperor's Guard, maybe I can help somewhere. you."

Kuros was silent for a moment. He seemed to be thinking. After a few seconds, he whispered: "Everything is the fault of those bastards from the Annihilation Order."

"About a year or two ago - it should be the time before and after His Majesty sent his clones to fight against the Mycrov civilization. When those Thakur bastards were studying psychic rituals, God knows what went wrong, and they connected to an extremely ancient A huge world... The spiritual energy in that world is extremely subtle and very different from the common spiritual energy in our galaxy, which is a huge gain for those bastards."

"However, they did not discover that there was an extremely weird 'virus' lurking in that ancient world."

"This virus is extremely weird, difficult to deal with, extremely vital and highly contagious. Except that it cannot move in the void, no environment can stop its spread - it can even move in a vacuum and absorb cosmic radiation to maintain its life! "

When he said this, Kouros' tone didn't know whether he was gloating or gritting his teeth, and his mental fluctuations became very complicated: "An entire sanctuary world fell directly, and one-twelfth of their core territory was instantly destroyed, causing extreme damage. There was a huge chaos, and the Patriarch tried his best to suppress it, but it was still inevitable that something would be leaked. Our investigators discovered this, and he hurriedly took advantage of the chaos to return, but he didn't want to have been infected with the virus and became a host."

Kouros's mental fluctuations revealed his undisguised hatred for the Thakur people - if the war seventy-four years ago had not traumatized his soul and left almost incurable hidden wounds, I am afraid he would have become General, gained the right to follow Emperor Amos in his actions.

"Okay, needless to say, things are not bad enough to cause chaos in the royal court. At least the Thakur people are worse than us - Elma, come and assist me in teleporting this void settlement to the isolated star field. There is a whole group of thinking individuals out there trying to decipher and de-translate it... If we fully master the technology of this virus, Thakur hybrids will no longer be a threat."

Inside Elma's body, Krelle, who had been listening to the real-time broadcast, couldn't help but swallow. He seems to know the consequences of having a spy at the top of a force. Look at Elma. She managed to obtain key information during the martial law period almost effortlessly. Some people even took the initiative to inform confidential information... It was really terrifying. !

However, Elma did not answer Kuros' invitation immediately. She was silent for a moment, and then asked hesitantly.

"Then the Great Emperor...what will your Majesty do?"

Krelle could see that the halo on the bottom of the inverted pyramid-shaped battleship was rotating much faster than before, and the light also turned red. However, listening to the mental fluctuations, Kouros was not angry. He just replied calmly: "Your Majesty Don’t care—well, we can figure this out ourselves, let’s do it together.”

Krelle, who was connected to Elma's soul, could feel the endless disappointment and anger rising in the heart of the Amos man... Although Elma had previously said that she wanted to rebel against the Emperor and break away from Amos. Mossi Royal Court, but when it really encountered a crisis, she couldn't help but want to find out the truth for her civilization, and looked forward to the emperor's action.

But the emperor didn't care.

In other words, he never really cared.

"...Haha, it's true."

Kreiler could hear an increasingly firm wave coming from the depths of Elma's heart: "The Great Emperor never cares about these little things... It has never understood that apart from the vision of the strong, there is also the life of the weak. .”

"So, I want to resist and rebel against everything."

Soon after, Elma, who had calmed down, set off to go to the Void Settlement with Kuros, preparing to assist this small group of Emperor Guards in teleporting the infected Void Settlement.

Suddenly, an indescribable shock appeared on both Crelle and Elma.

"This is!?"

"This feeling?!"

Kreiler only felt a sudden heat coming from the belt around his waist. This heat was far better than the burning of flames, but there was no pain at all. When he was shocked, the same heat rushed into his heart, making Kreiler A sudden determination suddenly came into Le's heart.

He immediately realized that his greatest wish, his greatest wish, was to become a strong man, a man who could decide his own destiny and subvert the things he hated, just like when he was young, he was in the black forest in the south. , witnessed the determination of Joshua Van Radcliffe at the moment when he overturned everything in the blink of an eye - this hot feeling spread to his whole body along with the pulse of his heart, in an instant It penetrated Kreller's whole body!

It can be seen that Kreler's whole body at this time is filled with a blue-purple radiance, of which blue accounts for a larger proportion - Elma's body is also radiated with a blue-purple radiance, but she is purple. The light is more conspicuous.

Not only these two, blood, gold, green and blue-violet, roughly four different radiances began to spread with the two as the origin. It can be seen that the Amos closest to Kreiler and Elma, The body of Emperor's Guard Kuros is overflowing with eye-catching 'blood red', while the bodies of the other seven Emperor's Guards are mostly blood red, and occasionally a gold can be seen.

This light began to spread towards the entire star field. Fourteen worlds and hundreds of void settlements were all illuminated, but most of the light was not responded to. Only a few green lights lit up, and the rest, Either the light is too dim, or... there is no light at all.

It can be seen that one-third of the hundreds of void settlements have no light at all, and there is even a feeling of loneliness in the vast star field.

But no one cares about this anymore.

Because everyone is immersed in the impulse from the deepest part of the soul, the most sincere and indelible emotion.
