After Geheros escaped, Phoenix sent someone to investigate the wreckage of Shagai, and it was confirmed that the Xiagai swarm on the planet had been wiped out, and that this existence that worshiped the god of darkness had returned to the arms of the god of darkness.

Phoenix led the fleet out of the system, the Xiagai Swarm was the first target of the Astral Empire, but not the last, and many more races were blinded by the Dark God and threw themselves into his arms.

However, before leaving, Phoenix found a small group of survivors of the Shagai swarm, who lived on other planets in the Shagai system and were the only remaining members of this race.

However, the survivors still worshipped the god of darkness in a frenzy, and the Templars of the Star Spirit Empire tried to reverse their faith with little success, knowing that the Templars were psykers.

'How's it going?' Gaskell looked at the phasing technician to the side, and after Phoenix found that he couldn't reverse the faith of the survivors, he teleported them back to Gelasius, hoping to get an answer from the scientist.

'The situation is terrible, archbishop. Phasing Technician Kerac continued to operate the control board in front of him, curious about the situation of the Shagai swarm.

His body has been completely modified by the dark forces, and his genes have been irreversibly altered in ways that cannot be changed even with our technology. With a flick of his finger, Kalax projected the genetic data of the Shagai swarm.

Gaskell frowned, "What if we extract his consciousness?" ”

Kelax shifted the projection into another image: "That could be even worse, Your Excellency the Archbishop, his soul is the most affected, according to our research, his physical changes are due to the transformation of his soul from the inside out, if we extract his consciousness and put it into a new body, then the new body is 90% likely to change to his current appearance, if it is placed in a machine, even the machine will be corrupted by this force." ”

Looking at the dark and twisted soul on the screen, Gaskell sighed slightly: "In other words, there is no way to save these corrupted races with our means?" ”

"I'm afraid so, Your Excellency the Archbishop." Kelax nodded, turned the screen off, and looked up at the other party: "But if we can get the soul gem, then we may make new progress in the study of souls, or." ”

Kelaxton paused, "Or we can ask His Majesty El to help, and His Majesty should be able to get rid of these corruptions." ”

Gaskell thought for a moment, the soul gem, as one of the six major gems, has always been the most mysterious one, even if the Star Spirit Empire and the observer's civilization relationship is good, the other party is unwilling to reveal the location of the soul gem, it seems that he can only send someone to find it privately.

Gaskell came back to his senses and turned to look at the Shagai Swarm who had been locked up in the Static Swarm, which Phoenix had kept in the Stagnant Warehouse for fear that the awakened Shagai Swarm would summon evil gods again.

'I see, I'll pass the news to Atanis right away. Gaskell sighed again, as long as there was a glimmer of hope, the Astral Empire could not sit idly by, both for the sake of the corrupted survivors and for the sake of the other races.

。。。。。。

After receiving the news of the evil god, Artanis, instead of studying magic, waited in his room for the summons of the Council of Light and Shadow, and it was not long before Artanis, who was pranayama, felt a message from Kara.

'Your Excellency the Archbishop. When Artanis, when he found out that it was Gaskell who had summoned him, he saluted.

'Your Excellency, to make a long story short, we have discovered a group of survivors corrupted by the evil gods, and we are helpless against them, so please pass this on to Your Majesty Al. Gaskell's stern voice reached Artanis' mind, along with memories of his communication with Kelax.

Artanis quickly went through his memories and nodded, 'Follow your instructions. ’

With a brief message, Artanis opened his eyes and immediately stood up and headed for Al's position.

The location of Al is a room specially organized by the Ancient One, which contains all kinds of items, both magical and technological, but Al is most interested in food from various planets.

After dealing with the evil god that came, Al's main consciousness returned to the divine realm, leaving only a clone of the mind, but even if he was a doppelganger, he was also the god of knowledge and wisdom, so whether it was a magical creation or a technological creation, Al could quickly get started and lose interest.

But food is different, since crossing over, El no longer needs food, and after the doppelganger in the nether realm, seeing the tea prepared for him by the ancient one, the memory of the food country in his previous life was remembered by him, although his body is currently built from pure energy, but for him, it is very easy to regain the sense of taste.

In addition, the pure energy body does not need to digest food, he can directly convert food into energy after tasting the taste, so that he can eat it all the time (x).

Ahem, said that Atanis came to El's door, and the door opened automatically, as a living god, Al knew everything about his neighborhood, but in order not to invade other people's privacy, Al just kept it in his room.

"Atanis? What's the matter? Al put down the spicy strip in his hand, his posture was still elegant, this kind of food that is popular in the human world really has its merits.

"Your Majesty, there is news from the Council of Light and Shadow that there is a group of survivors who have been corrupted by the evil gods, they are helpless for the time being, and they hope to get your help." Artanis, who walked into the room and saluted Al, the door behind him shut.

Al nodded, and stood up, "Infected? Let me see. ”

Artanis nodded yes, and took it out of the Static Stasis that had been teleported by the Council of Light and Shadow.

After the interrogation, Gaskell sent the Static Warehouse to Artanis's room, where he placed it in his phase space.

This phase space is a storage technology of the Star Spirit Empire, born in the year 4500 of the Kara calendar, this technology will quantum-decompose and store items in the psionic matrix, and then reconstruct them when they need to be used, this technology can greatly facilitate the Templars, allowing them to carry more items, and it is rumored that one of the Kale technicians even hid a colossus in his phase space.

Of course, this technology can also transport people quickly, and with the existence of a psionic matrix, there is no need to worry about souls, but there are still some Templars who are reluctant to accept this kind of decomposition of themselves, preferring portals.
