Chapter 519: Mu Chen, the Chosen One
Atren frowned, obviously not expecting Mu Chen to refuse.
"I'm afraid it's up to you and me to decide......"
"What are you kidding?" I'm going to catch the ducks on the shelves, please, I have to have that ability?"
"What does this mean, old man?" Mu Chen asked.
"Let you see the picture and you'll know......"
Atren waved his hand again above the pool, and the Eye of Time and Space immediately changed its image.
It's an unknown star field, it looks like it's supposed to be the edge of a galaxy, and there's a battle going on, and countless ghostly creatures are trying to break through the galaxy, but they are blocked by an invisible shield and can't move forward.
Mu Chen and the others glanced at each other, and they were all shocked by the battle in the picture, because the number of this group of "ghosts" was extremely terrifying, even exceeding the scale of the Zerg.
"This shouldn't be the Milky Way, right?" Mu Chen asked.
"You're right, this is the Gaia galaxy a trillion light-years away from the core coefficient...... Atren said solemnly.
Trillions of light-years? This is amazing, as far as Mu Chen knows, the current detection technology in the Milky Way requires the Dumats to be the most advanced, but it can only detect the range of 500 billion light years, that is to say, what Mu Chen sees now is an extragalactic galaxy.
Mu Chen couldn't help but take a second look at Tia's holy relic Eye of Time and Space, he really didn't expect this thing to be so magical, it was simply black technology.
"Do you see these 'ghosts'?" Atren asked, pointing to the myriad ghosts in the frame.
"Is this a ghost thing?" Mu Chen asked.
"That's the name I gave them, on the other side of the Gaia system, this race is called the soul race, which is somewhat similar to the elementals, they are all energy creatures, but the difference is that they absorb the souls of other species......"
Atren's words made Mu Chen gasp, he couldn't have imagined that there were such creatures in the universe.
"With such a large group of ghosts, how many creatures' souls do you have to absorb every day?" Richard asked, his scalp tingling.
"The young man got to the point, don't underestimate this ghost clan, they are even more terrifying than the Zerg, countless extragalactic galaxies have been captured by them, and the creatures there without exception have all become food for the ghost clan......"
Hearing this, Mu Chen's brows furrowed deeply, he already understood what the wise man Yatren meant.
The Gaia galaxy is the target of the Oni Clan's attack now, but it is uncertain when the Milky Way will be favored by the Oni Clan.
In other words, the crisis is very close to the galaxy.
"The flight speed of these ghosts is not very fast, and it will take a long time to fly trillions of light-years to the galaxy
At that time, we may have died long ago. Mu Chen said.
Indeed, the picture is densely packed with ghost creatures, which can almost force the dense phobia to death, but their flight speed is not fast, and even the speed of the angel people cannot keep up.
Atren sighed and said, "But they also know how to use spatial wormholes......"
Mu Chen's face turned pale in an instant, he never thought it would be like this.
Space wormholes are relatively stable transition channels in the universe that are naturally formed.
Unlike the jump tunnels created by the jump engine, this kind of space wormhole can exist for tens of thousands of years, and it is very large, even if it is a small wormhole, it can pass through dozens of space fortresses at once.
"Unfortunately, there is a space wormhole in the Gaia galaxy that can go directly to the vicinity of the Milky Way, once the ghosts break through the Gaia Galaxy, then our galaxy is very likely to become their next target." Atren said solemnly.
"Time is running out for us, do you still want to back down?" Yatren's voice sounded in Mu Chen's ears as if Hong Zhong Da Lu was ringing.
"Even if I am willing to do it, with my ability, it is obviously impossible to protect the entire galaxy......" Mu Chen said in a tangled voice.
"Yes, even if all the earthlings are recruited into the fleet, it is impossible to arrange such a large line of defense, these ghost clans are not as honest as the Zerg, they only know the real face, their attack is very sharp, and it is an all-round attack, and they are in almost every corner of the battlefield." Richard also said with a frown.
In fact, Mu Chen was able to defeat the Zerg before, and it also relied on this, if the Zerg were like the ghost clan in the picture, attacking the solar system from different directions at the same time, then Mu Chen might not be able to hold it, mainly because the number of fleets was only so much, and the doppelgangers lacked skills.
"So we need to find the space wormhole leading to the Milky Way from the Gaia Galaxy in advance to see if we can destroy it." Mu Chen's mind instantly came up with a feasible countermeasure.
But Richard immediately vetoed: "It's a bit unrealistic, I still understand the characteristics of the space wormhole, and with our existing means, it is impossible to destroy it." ”
Yatren also added: "Indeed, as far as I know, there is no ability to destroy the space wormhole in the entire universe, and I also know that there was a race that did this, but the energy released by their weapons was absorbed by the wormhole, and instead of destroying the space wormhole, it expanded countless times, engulfing the entire galaxy ......"
In the eyes of Atren and Richard, Mu Chen's proposal didn't work at all, and it even felt like he was shooting himself in the foot.
But Mu Chen didn't see it that way, although what the two of them said was very reasonable, it didn't mean that it was completely infeasible, even if they couldn't destroy the space wormhole, couldn't they try to close it
Or seal it up?
You must know that the space wormhole also has a lifespan, and after the internal energy is consumed, it will disappear completely, as if it never existed, that is, if the energy in the space wormhole can be artificially released quickly, then it can be permanently closed.
Of course, this still needs to go through countless experiments, and Mu Chen himself is not sure.
"Old man, I don't know what you have in mind?" Mu Chen sincerely asked.
The Tia had long known about the crisis of the ghost invasion, so they must have also thought about how to deal with it, and Mu Chen planned to listen to Yatrun's opinion first.
"In my opinion, you are the key to the victory or defeat of this war." Yatren said seriously:
"The lucky compass in your hand, I have been looking for it for countless years, and it is only now that I am sure that you are its master, and it can take you to find the spatial wormhole that leads to the Gaia galaxy and provide support to the Gaia people."
"You mean to let me take the initiative to participate in the war between the Gaians and the Oni Clan?" Mu Chen asked.
"That's right, I've watched your battles many times, and I have to say that there is no one in the universe who can match you, and the talent you have shown in the field of space combat is something I have never seen before, and I have to say that the Chosen One really lives up to its name."
This sycophant makes Mu Chen's heart feel happy, but what the hell is the Chosen One?
Atren saw the doubts in Mu Chen's heart and explained: "There are four major artifacts in the galaxy, namely the Lucky Compass, the Infinity Stone, the Eye of Time and Space, and the Heart of Eternity, and these four magical masters are collectively called the Chosen One. ”
"In other words, you're one of the Chosen One?" Mu Chen asked curiously.
"That's right, Tia has always guarded the Eye of Time and Space, and every generation of wise people is the Chosen One, and I am the 217th master of the Eye of Time and Space." Yatren said proudly.
"What about the other two Chosen One?" Mu Chen asked.
"The Infinity Stones were once a sacred relic of the Proxima Centauri, and the energy used in their leap technology was extracted from the Infinity Stones, but the calamity of Proxima Centauri seems to have lost it in the war, and even I can't determine its location." Yatren said regretfully.
"What about the Eternal Heart?" Mu Chen continued to ask.
"Haha, you must know this person, isn't it the insect emperor you once wanted to assassinate? His immortal power comes from the heart of eternity. Yatren said with a smile.
Okay, it's good now, I finally figured out the secret of the immortality of the Worm Emperor, this teammate is a bit tough, if you can get the help of the Worm Emperor, maybe it is really possible to defeat those ghosts head-on.
Think about it, the overwhelming swarm of insects fighting against the ghosts that cover the sky must be very shocking......
