Section 500 Towards despair

Abyss...... Fourth anti-space ......

The most mysterious, terrifying, and formidable place in the universe.

So far, no civilization has been able to break through here, and the reason is that the abyss is a zone of energy. All the rules of energy that are accustomed in normal space are completely null and void here. No trace of energy can be condensed and utilized. So even a planet will quickly lose power and turn into a dry death star after falling here.

But this is not the most terrifying, the most terrifying thing is that the abyss also has the most terrifying corrosive power in the known world. Any intruder will be contaminated by the ubiquitous alien matter in the abyss, which is paradoxical to energy. But it is as terrible as a plague, and even a little contamination will melt away in the shortest possible time, turning into a homogeneous substance.

This is the land of energy, the land of rules, the land of time and space.

The abyss does not have all common sense. The only thing that is there is is only endless darkness and twisting. Light can't exist here, not even for a nanosecond.

In such an environment, let alone action, even survival is extremely impossible. So no civilization has penetrated it so far. The area beneath it has never been explored.

But today, there is a behemoth with a roar that runs through the three layers of anti-space in a row, and breaks into this place with a violent attitude. On the huge and incoherent star, countless tentacles twisted wildly, like a sea urchin with all its spikes open. Because of the high speed, a super giant tunnel was even created behind it that led directly to the subspace!!

It's Lil's interstellar brood!

Originally, she didn't know how to enter the abyss, but at the moment she was not real, just a bystander who had traveled through time and space. So she just needs to watch silently and perceive all this.

The brood is huge and carries the seeds of civilization. It also embodies the hope of all people. As soon as he broke into the abyss, countless external tentacles suddenly twitched, and they were eroded into a cloud of black mist by the ubiquitous foreign matter of the abyss, each of these tentacles was hundreds of meters in diameter, and its strength was comparable to the hull of the strongest warship in the universe. But he couldn't even breathe for a moment, which shows how terrible the alien matter in the abyss is. The endless darkness that followed wriggled like a living thing, filling the space tunnel behind the brood. By the time the brood loses power, the entire space has been restored to its original state.

A colossal and incoherent star. But it failed to stir up even a wave.

But this was just the beginning, and in a matter of seconds, Lil's stream of information was filled with reports of functional damage. Almost all exposed tissues are fatally attacked. On the vast surface of the brood, a large amount of foreign matter is spreading like a plague.

As far as the eye could see, the entire brood was covered by a black oppressed foreign matter, and a large amount of black mist exploded, shrinking in a circle in just an instant. The surface of the entire brood. The 100-meter-thick biological carapace was eroded into potholes, and all outlets were dissolved.

There was no sound in the abyss, but the quieter it was, the more terrifying it became. It's like a silent hunt, the whole abyss is the hunter, and the brood is the prey.

That's unimaginable damage, even for a being as large as the brood. And what surprised Lil the most was the speed of her invasion. Judging from the frequency of cell replacement, even if it is the strongest compound starship in the Fifth Realm, it will definitely not be more than five seconds here. It can be seen how aggressive this foreign substance is.

It's just that...... It still can't kill the brood.

I have to say. The pride of the wise Revor is justified. This Dominator Interstellar Brood is even greater than Lil could have imagined. Not only is it a superior biological carapace and defense system, but more importantly, it has a super special feature that all civilizations have never had. …,

That's regeneration.

It is alive......

It doesn't matter how quickly the alien matter erodes. There is always enough cells in the brood to regenerate and replenish. This is not enough to completely resist, but it is enough for the brood to survive. And because of the special genus of the organism, the biological energy in the brood has not completely stopped, and there are still a large number of energy pools operating slowly, merging the hard-earned biological energy into the transmission glands that spread like roots.

This is the highest masterpiece in the field of biology, and even in this abyss of discoloration, it still retains its stubborn vitality.

So next, Liel witnessed this most difficult voyage.

The name of the voyage is ...... Lonely......

There is no energy flow in the abyss, so the brood does not have the ability to act autonomously. But one of the biggest reasons why the abyss is called the abyss is that there is a natural phenomenon here. This phenomenon has been described as 'lotami'. It means absolute emptiness. It is a natural phenomenon that resembles an undersea cliff. It is that somewhere in the abyss, a mysterious force field will suddenly appear, pulling foreign objects to move. At the same time, this force field blocks out all rules, creating an absolute 'blank', a phenomenon known as 'lotami'.

Because everything is blank, anything once swallowed by lotami. It will involuntarily move forever. It's a bit like falling off a cliff. That's why it's called 'sinking'. In fact, this is the only known way to navigate the abyss. It is also a drift of self-exile.

There is no end, no goal, no motivation, no self-help.

Sailing in the abyss is so desperate. It is believed that since the start of interstellar voyages, only the most primitive spacecraft can be compared with Lotami. That's why Liel thinks this voyage should be called 'loneliness'. If it weren't for being taken to the extreme, no one would want to take this path.

But the wise Revol was lucky, because Liel saw with her own eyes that the conquerors after the break had turned into cosmic dust. Just to preserve the seeds of this civilization. Maybe this seed will one day reach the other side, or maybe it will perish in the middle. But there's always hope, isn't it?

Compared with...... Lonely...... And what is it?

Time passes little by little, maybe a day, maybe countless years. There is no standard concept of time in the abyss, and Lil can only feel the passage of time through the throbbing of the brood. In the boundless darkness, the brood was suspended silently, as if it had just entered. Every minute and every second is constantly metabolized to ensure survival. In the brood, the seeds of civilization began to multiply, some new living buildings were made, and a large number of cities and new life began to be born. Under the protection of the brood, they begin their difficult reproduction.

Finally one day. A mysterious force field is like a big mouth in the darkness, swallowing the brood in one fell swoop. Immediately after that, the foreign matter covering the brood vanished, and the circulatory system within the brood returned to normal.

But no one was happy, and no one was excited. Because everybody knows the truth. This is the beginning of the ordeal...... The following years are the most difficult and painful years. They will be enclosed forever in this giant brood until they reach the finish line.

And before that, no civilization had ever reached there.

There is only one person...... A woman who does not belong to any power, but has the most magical opportunities, she has reached the bottom of the abyss through an unrealistic dream. And brought back something from there.

An object that an entire civilization sees as hope, but it leads to destruction.

"Perhaps...... We will also be so lucky. ”

In a city in the brood, the wise Revor whispered. On his side, a group of wise men in the same costume.

"We started, I don't know if the Dao King's side will go well." …,

"The king will get out safely, he made a promise to us." Another wise man said. It also aroused everyone's echo.

"Maybe......" Revor sighed. He knew that this could only be everyone's wish.

In order to evacuate the brood safely, the king personally led the remaining conquerors as bait. And his brother. Reynolds the Wise was also on the king's side. With another 'hope'. It can be said that it is all the strength left of civilization, and there are many outstanding conquerors and the most powerful gods of war in civilization. But nothing is absolute, although Revol knows that the plan is very tight. But I still have no confidence in my heart.

Because what they have to face is the advanced civilization and the strong people of the whole universe. Among them, there are many more high-end existences than them.

"We ...... To live. ”

Revor was silent for a long time, and finally said. The wise men around nodded in unison.

Loneliness begins......

Repeatedly, year after year. The brood keeps sinking. In the abyss, the deeper it sinks, the deeper it sinks, the smaller it sinks. The years are endless, and there is no end. Unconsciously, the cities in the brood have changed several batches, and the personnel don't know how many times the road has been updated. Because of the lack of fighting and competition, many fighters weakened. They can only hone their survival skills through the battlefield nightmares provided by the brood. Paralyzed by fighting in a dream. It's as if it's still at the height of civilization.

The wise men are also old. Although through state-of-the-art biotechnic techniques, they can constantly replace their bodies with new ones. But that is not the reason why they can live forever. The laws of the universe are cruel. Every life is destined to die from birth. No matter how many shells they replace, they can delay at best, but they can't escape it.

Seeing that there are fewer and fewer familiar faces, Revor, as the chief wise man, is becoming more and more desperate. Beneath the white robes, his new body began to decay, and it had only been replaced for less than a year. He didn't know how long his changed body would last. One month? One day?

To make matters worse, the brood is not invincible. Although the brood condenses the strongest technique of civilization, it is almost indestructible. But that's almost. In fact, in this endless abyss, no object is eternal.

The absolute void of Lotami sucks the life of the brood like a voracious vampire. Every minute and every second, a huge amount of biological energy leaks from the brood, swallowed up by its void. This process is defenseless and irreparable. I can only watch as the brood also weakens. A large number of biological carapaces are peeled away, revealing the complex biological structures underneath. Layer by layer is shaved away by blanks. Blood vessels, tendons, bones, anything, are the food that lotami likes to eat, and it eats the brood little by little.

In order to survive, the brood has been locked more than once. A large amount of biological tissue was discarded in exchange for a little respite. But in Revor's view, this is just a matter of survival.

The road to the abyss has not yet come to an end, are they about to disappear?

Revor had no answer. There is no hope in sight.

Just then, a voice suddenly interrupted his musings. Soon after that, a young conqueror burst in, shouting hoarsely.

"Lord Revor, look!! It's the Elt Magic Mothership!! ”

"What!?" Revor was startled, with a look of disbelief in his eyes. "This can't be!!" (To be continued)
