Chapter 733 Chasing Meteors
World Tree Core Area, A35 Underground Base.
At the end of the passage filled with cold light, there is a dark glass hall. At this moment, many people are busy responding to the information transmitted by various nodes and channels. Among them are both elves and humans. On the white flower-shaped throne in the middle of the hall, a blonde woman with a veil covering her face sits. Her eyebrows are soft and beautiful, and at this moment, she has an indissoluble sorrow, which makes people feel pity.
As a singer, Ewen Qilin's talent is undoubtedly top-notch. She used to be the fastest-promoting singer in the Federation, but she has always been stuck at the full moon level and always stayed at the threshold of the sun-level singer. This long stagnation finally disappointed many people and finally gave up and left.
In fact, Ewen Qilin did not have much ambition. In the years when Orles was at the peak of her fame, she was happy to give way to this younger generation, but as a representative of the Landsworth family and one of the few most powerful singers in the Federation, she could not escape some responsibilities.
Especially after Orles disappeared, the elf faction urgently needed a singer to support the situation. Looking at the Federation, only Ewen Qilin was the most suitable. Although she was stuck at the threshold of the Sunday-level singer, even so, no other singer could surpass her. Moreover, the Lanzworth family had been married to the elves for generations and had a close relationship. It was a long-standing family of human and elf hybrids.
For various reasons, Ewen Qilin sat in the most important position in the central government of the Federation again. Relying on her name and ability, she did calm the turbulent emotions within the Federation in the years after the war. If everything developed smoothly, perhaps the situation could be maintained like this.
But things are always not as people wish. Today's Federation is not the peaceful era of the past, but a period of turmoil and drastic changes. A gentle singer like Ewen Qilin naturally cannot capture people's hearts. Whether it is the major interest groups with fierce struggles in the upper class or the ordinary residents who are in urgent need of changing their living conditions, they cannot tolerate the current situation to continue.
There was no choice before. Once a powerful, decisive and determined singer like Pulin Koko appeared, a large number of group forces began to abandon Ewen Qilin and join the opposite side.
Unless Ewen Qilin can get out of her mental barrier and break through to the Sunday level, then the situation can be stabilized again.
Can I do it? Ewen Qilin asked herself this question at some point.
The answer is probably no. Thanks to the reputation of the Landsworth family, she has lived in a beautiful and peaceful environment since she was a child. She is also used to the life of a forest princess in a fairy tale. Her kindness, gentleness, patience, humility and tranquility all come from this.
She doesn't like to argue, nor does she want to conflict with others. If someone has to fail and admit defeat, she would rather be the one who gets hurt, not others.
With such a personality, if she is forced to get out of her mental barrier and use thundering methods, she may need to completely distort and transform the personality she has built over the past decades. She can't do it, and she doesn't want too many people to sacrifice and die because of herself.
"Let me go out." After a long while, Chen Jing opened her tired eyes.
Facing Ewen Qilin's words, the people standing around her felt reluctant. It might not matter if they surrendered, but if Ewen Qilin was caught by the other party, she would definitely face lifelong imprisonment and no freedom. Even worse, the other party might torture the singer and cause her to die young.
"No." An elf maid knelt in front of her.
"Your Highness, you must not go out now. You can't surrender easily."
"The major families of the elf faction have not expressed their opinions. As long as they unite, they may not be without the power to fight. There are also forces in other star regions of the Federation. They will not sit idly by. Miss Heshia in the south and Lady Blanche in the western star region were all your students. They will not abandon you."
Her words were agreed by many people around her, and everyone tried to dissuade Ewen Qilin at this moment.
"Please think twice, Lady Ewen Qilin."
"It's too early to give up now."
"This is the Twin Tree Star Region, the hometown of Her Highness Isanissa, where the Fourth Fleet is stationed. Even if it is the other side, they dare not go too far. We still have hope of turning the tables."
"The residents of the World Tree stand with you. Your identity and bloodline are as noble as Isanissa, and you cannot be easily humiliated."
"Your Highness Ewen Qilin..."
Under the constant persuasion of the crowd, Ewen Qilin stopped talking and returned to silence again, just looking at the crowd with some lament.
If only I were stronger...
Time passed by minute by minute, and as the army on the ground marched into the World Tree area, various resistance battles began to break out sporadically, and the local elf factions began to organize people to hinder the actions of these teams.
Under the canopy of the magnificent World Tree, many shuttles flew back and forth, and people fought in the sky from time to time. They were either members of the extraordinary faction that supported the "Volcano Queen" Pulin Koko, or members of the original extraordinary faction on the planet where the World Tree lived. Both sides tacitly did not use guns and artillery to avoid destroying the holy land of the Federation.
The purple-red lightning suddenly split the dense branches and leaves, tore down from the high sky, pierced through the trees along the way, and suddenly flashed dazzlingly, and then the two figures in the sky separated.
One of them was wearing a black coat and holding a purple-copper long ruler in his hand. Its edges and corners were clear and heavy. It was obvious that it was an extraordinary weapon. Opposite him was a young elf woman, and the other party held a pair of emerald swords, with strange butterfly wings flashing behind her.
"So you are from the 'Busen School of Magnetoelectricity', but unfortunately there are no steel facilities here for your school's magnetoelectric power to be used." The elf woman's eyes sparkled, and the light flowing in them kept analyzing the other party.
"Hmph, it's not your turn to remind you." The other party said calmly, and then waved the copper mechanical ruler in his hand again.
There are multiple modules on this ruler. When it operates according to different magic trajectories, it will produce different interference force fields. At this moment, the purple-red brand pattern lights up again, and tiny black dots approach rapidly from the sky, and then whizz towards the elf holding two swords in the air.
Clang, chi, zi...
The emerald double swords slashed rapidly with the elf's flying dance, cutting off and shredding the metal fragments that were approaching, turning them into gravel with sparks, and then she spread her wings again and flew high, the butterfly wings behind her flashed instantly, and her figure accelerated to the extreme in an instant, passing through the other party's side with seven extremely sharp trajectories, bringing flying blood.
After the battle, the elf turned around and floated in the air again, overlooking the other party falling to the ground. She did not stop, and rushed to another battlefield in the sky again to deal with the invading faction elites.
"It's from the 'Cut Double Swords' school." During the battle, someone recognized the source of the elf's superb skills.
Among the various extraordinary factions in the natural sequence, the 'Cut Double Swords' is undoubtedly one of the most ancient and powerful schools, especially in one-on-one fights, there are few opponents. Its fighting style is gorgeous and fierce, but it also requires extremely high talent. Otherwise, if you only learn half a point, you will not be as good as other stable extraordinary factions.
In addition to the members of the ‘Cut Double Swords’ faction, the elves on the scene also have many other similar natural sequence factions, such as ‘Thorn Poison’, ‘Dance of the Demonic Red Butterfly’, ‘Seven Dews and Lotus Rain’, ‘Harmony of the Moon’, ‘Iron Branches of Cast Trees’, ‘Wind Entangled with Fierce Flowers’, etc. There are many high-level extraordinary people in these extraordinary factions. Most of them are also native inhabitants of the planet and have inextricable ties with the local elf factions.
These high-level extraordinary people with agility are like fish in water in the environment covered by the world tree, because the world tree itself will produce abundant natural sequence magic, which has a great bonus to their battle. Even those other sequence extraordinary people of the same level will find it difficult to win in this environment.
As the resistance progresses, more and more local faction extraordinary people join in, which makes the team's advancement and occupation face more and more resistance, and also makes the commanders in the rear begin to worry, considering whether to lift the ban on the use of real war weapons such as firearms and artillery.
This operation must succeed, and they must not let Ewen Qilin go. This is the final bottom line of the action party.
Fortunately, as the sun sets, waves of holy songs sounded in distant planets and space, and the invisible ripples began to spread in the space outside this planet.
[Begin to synchronize with the Sea of Ekaka]
[1623 subsystems of the Precursor level have been checked and connected one by one]
[591 hierarchical modules of the Chorus level have been built and can be accommodated]
[31 positions of the Aria level are ready, and the artificial angels are in place]
[Self-check completed, the 'Throne' system is ready]
…
In the silent outer space, a huge starship spread out a magnificent circular array, in which countless filaments seemed to penetrate into the void and began to communicate with the many life wills hundreds and thousands of light years away.
The singing became louder and louder, like a big bell slowly vibrating, and the echoing sound spread like a tide, and then tiny points of light lit up in the Sea of Ekaka. They continued to condense, traveled through the void of the Sea of Ekaka, and then slowly descended into this world.
The beautiful silk threads that were like the gradual change of red clouds gradually emerged in this cold and lonely starry sky. They intertwined, chased and entangled each other, and kept rising, together constructing the magnificent outline shadow.
In the Titan flagship, Pulin sat on the throne decorated with red roses. In the hall, a priest covered with red gauze stood at this moment. They assisted the girl in completing the feat of lifting the sun.
Across the distance of time and space, countless people's wills and voices were connected. They had different emotions, including worship, envy, complaints, fear, and pleading. These spiritual consciousnesses converged into a huge torrent and met here.
On the throne, Pulin held the armrest tightly, her eyebrows twisted and frowned, and bright red silk threads kept emerging from it and kept wandering, like a wild horse gradually running away.
A trace of blood began to overflow from the corner of her mouth. She opened her eyes at this moment, staring at the empty space in front of her, and there seemed to be blood-red liquid flowing in her pupils.
Damn... This is not at all...
The violent turbulence in the sea of consciousness constantly impacted her consciousness, leaving her no room to speak or think. If she could, Pulin would definitely curse at this time, asking who started this and said that once she entered the Sun level, she could raise the crown.
At this time, she finally understood how much pressure Orles had taken on back then. If her spirit had not been tempered by the special ritual of the "Red Death Cult", she would probably have collapsed by now.
However, unlike Orles back then, the entire process now was controlled by her own hands. If she really couldn't hold on, she could stop the process immediately and force her spiritual consciousness to derail from the throne system.
However, with her strong character, she would never allow herself to give up so cowardly and humiliatingly. This would be as painful as killing her. Even though her spirit was on the verge of collapse, Pulin still gritted her teeth and stood firm.
Countless voices echoed in her mind like a fantasy at this moment. She saw the memory scenes of tens of millions of people in an instant. Each scene was the most unforgettable memory of the parties involved. Each emotion was so strong that it was difficult to calm down. They had their own thoughts and impulses and were difficult to control.
"Enough! You bunch of idiots!" Invisible flames ignited in her pupils. Almost at the same time, the illusory flames swept the entire hall, and everything began to distort and deform in the high temperature.
No mistakes, one song, one post, one content, one 6, one book, one bar!
Many of the singers and priests at the scene were like Pulin Koko, who practiced fire-related professions, so they could barely hold on in the sea of fire, but they were also in unbearable pain at the moment. I'm afraid they couldn't hold on for too long. Once they collapsed, the entire throne system would disintegrate.
The invisible flames burned the body and will, almost melting the spirit. Under the torture of this double pain, some people began to collapse, fell to the ground, and the surface of the body was also burning.
Every second at this moment was as long as a year. Some people began to distort their faces in pain, and some were already shaky.
Fortunately, in this most difficult moment, things began to turn around. Perhaps the invisible flames were not only aimed at them, but also at the gathering spiritual torrent. After the burning, melting, and filtering of the burning flames, although Pulin Koko felt extremely painful, the mental pressure was miraculously reduced, which made her regain her confidence and firm up again.
Sure enough, as time passed, although the people present were still in pain, it was not as extreme as at the beginning, and even slowly entered the range of tolerance. At this time, the throne system finally stabilized slowly.
In the space outside the star where the ‘World Tree’ lived, the magnificent crown woven with red silk began to take shape step by step.
The red comet dripped into this world like the tears of gods, slowly tearing open the pale blue sky.
The atmosphere gradually dissipated, and the dark starry sky outside began to enter the vision of the residents below. In this vast and dark starry sky, the only burning red crown emitted a faint halo, shining into this closed ancient world.
Like the reflection of the setting sun, the red light filled the world, and countless information was also detected by this magnificent sun crown.
‘I found you.’ Pulinkoko opened her eyes.
The red comet that crossed the sky rushed to the core area of the world tree, easily smashed the huge shield protecting the planet, tore open the magnificent barrier protecting the world tree, and brought all kinds of broken sparks and glare along the way, constantly approaching the target.
Deep in the a35 underground base, many people looked at the scene projected by the radar in despair. Even if they were unwilling to abandon Ewen Qilin, they were powerless at this time.
The figure in white gauze on the throne raised her head and watched the red gradually expand in her pupils. There seemed to be sadness and relief in her eyes.
Let it end like this. It was all her weakness and mistakes...
...
Perhaps, Ewen Qilin's story should end here, but not everyone accepts such an outcome.
In the hall, someone suddenly took action. At this desperate moment, they suddenly rushed away the protectors around Ewen Qilin, picked up the weak singer, and carried her away.
"Guard!" Someone shouted nervously. At this time, some people barely reacted and began to catch up with the group.
Even though Ewen Qilin was no longer the core of the Federation, the guards around her should not be underestimated. Some of them were the top elites of Sequence 7, and there were even several Grandmasters of Sequence 8.
It was just that everything happened too suddenly, and the rising sun crown outside also controlled and enveloped the planet, suppressing those top-level extraordinary people and making it difficult for them to react in this environment.
The group of people who suddenly took action had a very clear division of labor. A small number of them took Ewen Qilin away, and the rest blocked the guards who were chasing them. They were determined to die from the beginning, and did not consider whether they could survive afterwards.
The bursting fire exploded in the underground base, and various temporary barriers and blocking doors appeared instantly, making it impossible for many people present to approach Ewen Qilin within 5 seconds.
By the time they broke through the blockade, the figure carrying Ewen Qilin had disappeared at the end of the passage.
Even so, how could they escape under the gaze of the Sun Crown? Many people at the scene had this idea.
Soon after, they saw a scene that was almost a miracle.
A shining silver-white star rose from the ground, it brought a large area of ripples, broke through the space blockade in the atmosphere, and rushed out of the planet.
'Want to escape again? ' Pulin snorted coldly, thinking that the other party's actions were simply mocking him.
I wanted to capture you alive and well, but now you are resisting again without knowing whether to live or die. Do you really think she is easy to talk to?
The magnificent crown in the space lit up a little light, and several dazzling golden meteors caught up with the silver-white star that was heading into the sea of stars. Their speed was far beyond imagination, and they almost drew a line along the curtain of the starry sky in an instant, and in a blink of an eye they came to the side of the silver-white meteor and surrounded it.
Golden fire streams continued to fall from the chasing meteors. They approached the silver-white star in the center, constantly squeezing the surrounding space, and finally broke through the solidified hard shell, revealing the outline inside.
This should be a spaceship that has been compressed to the extreme, with a total length of no more than ten meters, and Ewen Qilin is lying in it at the moment, unconscious, like a princess sleeping in a crystal coffin in a fairy tale.
As the golden flame meteors approached, the miniature spaceship began to melt and disintegrate, and various debris kept flying out, while the pure white singer with her eyes closed was still sleeping.
"The pure white star has an uncompromising mission, and she should not fall here."
In the ruins on the earth, a group of black-robed members looked at the meteors chasing each other in the distance in the sky and prayed in a deep voice. They firmly believed in their mission and wanted to realize the path in the prophecy.
