"Time Sink Activation—"

"Time Warp: Pause!"

In the world where time stood still, Xia Xiu stood quietly.

At the moment when the flow of time suddenly stops, the world around it instantly loses its original color and becomes like an old-fashioned black and white movie. The transformation is both swift and thorough, enveloping the whole scene in a quiet and dreamlike atmosphere.

Every detail of the surroundings, from the miniature Shield of Himaria's rocky body to the massive silhouette of the mechanical city-state in the distance, is covered in a gray curtain.

The disappearance of color makes everything look sharper and clearer, and every outline and line is accentuated by cold light and shadow.

The snow-covered ground, the bodies of the stone beasts, and even the snowflakes fluttering in the air are all fixed by this colorless stillness.

The Time Demon God with an inverted triangular skull mask on his head floated quietly behind Xia Xiu, the edge of the triangular skull was as sharp as a blade, depicting an awe-inspiring beauty.

The mask obscured its face, revealing only the part of its jaw, but the deep purple eyes pierced through the shadows, the light pierced through the stagnant space-time, and they were like explorers shuttling through the abyss of the universe, bright and unfathomable.

Huhuhuhu-

[Vashak] exhaled a breath like white smoke, and under the mask of the inverted triangular skull, the cold air spread like a mist rising from the abyss, and the air around him became cold and bitter.

As if captured by the magic of time, the snowflakes scattered in the cold air are suspended in mid-air and solidified into eternal crystals.

"Legion Unfolds: Tindarus Hound—"

Under Xia Xiu's body, the shadow began to stretch continuously, as if it was devouring the light around him, and the shadow under his feet grew and extended in the cold light, like a sinking sea of darkness.

In this undercurrent of shadows, countless distorted stalkers squeezed each other, they were prisoners who had escaped from the Shadow Kingdom, their existence was a provocation to the laws of nature, and in that ever-expanding shadow, hidden the figures of countless Tyndalus Hounds, their existence was so unstable that it was difficult for mortal eyes to catch their true form.

Their form is unstable and incomprehensibly twisted, like monsters in the depths of the sea that have never seen the light.

They let out a hoarse roar in this kingdom, and their voices were so harsh that they seemed to come from another world.

The legions in the Shadow Kingdom continued to spread, and soon the six hundred and sixty-six hunting legions continued to stretch towards the stone beasts that were in time at Xia Xiu's feet.

These hounds, monsters released from the Shadow Realm, have twisted bodies and vague forms, like ghosts escaping from the depths of a nightmare.

Soon, the hounds began to swell, like clouds before a storm, and their hunger and thirst could not be described in words.

When the hounds swelled, their bodies seemed to be stretched by an invisible force, their muscles swollen and their skin twisted. Their bodies are now more like monsters stitched together by darkness and madness. Each expansion was accompanied by their howls of pain, sounds that echoed across the empty ice fields like a plea from the depths of hell.

"Roar—"

Their teeth were sharp as knives and shimmered with a cold sheen. They unleashed a fierce attack on the stone beast, their teeth tearing through the hard shell of the stone beast like a blade piercing through fragile cloth. In this bite, the stone beast's shell shattered, revealing the dried entrails inside. The eyes of the hounds gleamed with frenzy and hunger, and they greedily sucked everything the stone beasts had.

Their teeth seemed to be the sharpest blades of the night, piercing through the hardness of the stone beast's surface. They began to suck greedily, like a gluttonous feast, and in silence, the existence of the stone beast was dissolved bit by bit.

The miniature [Himaritan Shield]'s stony body is fragile to these monsters, and they are unable to resist and can only be torn apart by the hounds.

The cracking of stone beasts and the howling of hounds mingled to form the world's last elegy.

Xia Xiu, as a witness to this hunt, stood on the ice field, and under his feet was the shadow of expansion.

His golden eyes reflected every detail of the atrocity, and then he walked slowly, with a steady and determined pace.

In a world of stagnation, he is the only being who can move freely.

Everything around him was unusually silent at the sound of his footsteps.

As he advanced, he quickly stepped out of the firing range of the force field cannon that had been launched by the stone beasts.

Behind him, the Tyndalus Hounds were on their furious hunt.

These amorphous creatures tore at the bodies of the stone beasts with incredible speed and ferocity.

Their attacks are brutally efficient, each bite carrying a part of its own identity, and a tainted source of the Mother escapes from them.

Click, click

A high-pitched, piercing chewing sound came out of their mouths, and the hounds frantically chewed on the "energy" trapped in the moment of stillness.

Some of the hounds still had fragments of the bodies of stone beasts in their mouths with sparks and arcs, as if they were enjoying a terrifying feast.

This display of violence, although carried out in a standing time, actually lasted less than seven seconds.

When the blonde youth came to the furnace that was as large as the city-state, a huge bell rang out in the sky.

Buzz –

The voice seemed to be a call from another dimension, announcing the re-flow of time.

At this moment, time, begins to flow again.

As the bell rang, the frozen world began to slowly awaken.

The world that has lost its color begins to gradually regain its original color, like a black and white painting being painted with vivid colors.

The force field cannons that were originally hovering over the miniature version of the Himaritan shield began to accelerate slowly in the air, and as time recovered, they finally landed on the ground under the action of inertia, emitting a violent roar, as if announcing the return of some great power.

Boom –

In this explosive energy storm, Xia Xiu was already standing in front of the furnace of the mechanical city-state, as calm as a mountain.

The robes he wore fluttered slightly in the wind, and his golden hair danced in the air, unshaken by the explosion behind him

He didn't look back at the spectacular explosion behind him.

At this moment, he was out of the range of the explosions, and these explosions were not as good as the ones he had made in the past, compared to the "tourist mark" he left on Callisto, the explosion behind him was really nothing to see.

And at Xia Xiu's feet, the Shadow Realm began to change quietly.

The shadows that had been stretched out gradually shrank, like a dark ocean slowly receding.

Those terrifying Tyndalus hounds, beasts that had once run rampant in the Shadow Kingdom, were now pouring into the shrunken shadows one by one, as if they had been swallowed into another dimension. Their forms twisted, transforming from terrifying beasts of prey to flowing shadows, eventually merging completely into the feet of the blonde youth.

As the last hound vanished, the blonde youth's shadow became calm and small again.

Now, beneath his feet was no longer a hideout for terrifying creatures, but an ordinary, shadowy in proportion to his body.

At the same time, he held a dismembered miniature version of the [Himarian Shield] limb in his hand, which was sparkling and arcing.

Obviously, these miniature versions of the [Hemarian Shield] are imitations, and they are not the same as the giant structure [Himarian Shield] that walks on the surface of Ganymetan.

They are made of machinery, and the megastructures that walk on the surface of the barren planet are non-living and non-mechanical special creations.

Xia Xiu carefully and rudely scanned the severed arm in his hand, and soon he found a miniature silicon wafer for electronic devices.

A large number of electronic components, transistors, resistors, capacitors, etc., are flickering wildly, proving that even if they are crippled at the moment, they are still performing all kinds of complex electronic tasks, from basic data processing to complex calculation and control functions.

"Sure enough, Iberia's spearfighting skills are the same as those of the same origin......"

Xia Xiu stretched out his right index finger, and a small fire of data came out of it, and he lightly tapped it with his index finger on a certain part of the limb.

Knock Knock Knock –

As if under some supreme command, the metal on the broken mechanical arm began to be covered by azure geometric lines, and as the arm began to crack into small cubes, these small cubes were quietly suspended in mid-air, and soon, the metal structure wrapped around the chip completely disintegrated, revealing the integrated circuit inside.

That's a chip that's only 0.5 millimeters.

Xia Xiu took off the chip, and then discarded the mechanical arm casually.

"It has a built-in miniature quantum computer, which is far more integrated than traditional chips, and the chip has a built-in adaptive lineage function, which can seamlessly connect to various lineage networks. And, with biocompatible materials, it can be safely implanted into the human body or integrated with biological tissues. ”

Xia Xiu played with the chip in his hand, and the chip rotated between the index finger and thumb of his right hand.

"It's a perfect work, but it's a pity that it's ......"

With his touch, the chip began to pulsate faintly, like a cursed heart.

This pulsation was not a physical shock, but a mental fluctuation that silently penetrated into the depths of his consciousness. The blond youth felt an invisible pollution spilling over from the chip, a suffocating pollution, an evil force that could weaken people's minds and drive them into madness.

This pollution is like an invisible black fog, slowly spreading outward.

It carries with it unspeakable fear and pain, and the dark side that is hidden in the depths of human consciousness is gradually awakened.

This pollution can cause ordinary people's minds to begin to become confused, and the memories of the past and the perception of reality are intertwined, forming a terrifying illusion.

And Xia Xiu quietly felt the formation of the illusion.

It was as if he saw ancient and evil beings awakening from the darkness, and they possessed unimaginable powers and forms.

The tentacles of these ancient beings stretch out beyond time and space, controlling the fate of the universe.

He felt like he was trapped in a giant spider's web.

As this polluting force grows, so does the pollution that makes people gradually collapse their minds.

"Unfortunately, this thing wasn't designed for humans."

His right index finger and thumb clamped the chip tightly, as if controlling a dangerous beast.

A handful of azure flames came out of his hands, this flame was not an ordinary thing, but a special manifestation of energy, it emitted an azure light, beautiful and mysterious.

The flames slowly unfurled as if they were alive, layering over the terrifying tainted chip. It's not just a physical overlay, it's more like an advanced data processing, an invisible battle.

As the fire of data covered, the chip began to emit a terrible and high-pitched cry, like a trapped beast struggling.

The voice was sharp and harsh, as if it came from another dimension, full of pain and fear. However, despite the unsettling sound, the blonde youth's expression was unusually calm, his gaze focused on the chip, completely unaffected by his surroundings.

The fire of data continued to burn, its glow gradually becoming more intense, as if it were about to burn away all the pollution and terror.

Under the light of this flame, the contamination on the chip began to fade quickly. The contamination at the edges becomes blurred, then fades away, and finally the entire chip is cleaned as if it had never been touched by the forces of evil.

As the pollution disappeared, so did the mournful screams, which eventually disappeared into the air.

"Whew-"

The blonde youth gently blew out the data fire in his hand, and the chip lay quietly in his palm, having lost its previous terrifying aura. He stared at the chip, as if thinking about something.

The world around him was calm again, leaving only the lonely figure of the blonde youth and the purified biochip in his hand.

Xia Xiu gently raised the chip in his hand, and the small object began to show amazing changes in his palm.

The chip, which seemed to be hard and unchanging, now began to extend and wriggle continuously, like a living metal worm.

This change happens quietly, but with mysterious power.

The surface of the chip begins to produce subtle fluctuations, as if the molecules inside it are rearranging.

Its edges fade into obscurity, then slowly stretch out, slender and soft, like tentacles exploring the world around it.

These metal tentacles dance slowly in the air, reflecting the light and shadow of their surroundings in a breathtaking light.

With a glint of curiosity and scrutiny in his eyes, he seemed to be silently observing every detail of this strange phenomenon.

The chip continued to deform in his hand, and its central part became more inflated, as if some kind of life force was being nurtured in it. And its surface, those areas engraved with strange symbols, are now clearer, and each symbol seems to come to life, shimmering with mysterious brilliance.

Over time, this metal worm-like chip became more and more active.

Its movement is no longer a simple peristalsis, but begins to expand and contract rhythmically, as if breathing. In this process, the gloss of the surface of the chip is constantly changing, sometimes bright, sometimes dim, as if it is communicating with the outside world in its own way.

"Is this a cyber parasite?"

Salted fish is guilty, recently it has been getting later and later on the spot to code the word (the tooth is too painful, today continue to play anti-inflammatory drips, hit the whole person faint), so there are more and more mistakes and repetitions, and it can only be issued as an anti-theft chapter.

However, today's web crawlers are very powerful, and many things crawled are accurate, and some people have learned python for this......

This is very subtle, but the writer's words and pictures are generally not climbed, and they probably can't see this passage, and the reptile doesn't care about "after-sales service".
