Chapter 1690 The Wind Rises

While the goddess of creation, Leah, was obsessed with studying, there was also an undercurrent quietly surging in the dark and chaotic eternal prison in the deepest part of the Dream Plane universe.

For ten thousand years, absolute silence has been maintained here. All celestial bodies are as quiet as frozen in ice. There are no changes in life and no evolution of galaxies. The river of time seems to have forgotten this dark universe, leaving it behind. In the cold and dead silence, the appearance of the moment the seal was built remained for a long time.

However, this "freezing" is just an illusion, an illusion in the eyes of mortals with short life spans. In the face of a hundred-century time scale, this prison has never been truly peaceful, and the suppressed ancient terror is always present. No longer trying to break through the prison's blockade and touching the warning boundary of the dark abyss more than once, the guards responsible for suppressing the prison are engaged in a war that lasts for ten thousand years - but most of the battles of this war are unobservable. It is going on in the dimension, and in the eyes of outsiders who don't know the truth, what they can probably see is the occasional bright and dim changes of those lonely stars, or the sudden disappearance of a piece of space ashes.

A star at the edge of darkness hangs quietly alone, without any celestial bodies around it. Its orange-red surface is rolling with monstrous flames. Jets fight against the gravity of the celestial body itself, erupting from the sea of ​​fire and piercing the cold. The dark space looked like countless dazzling spears of light. However, the light emitted by stars cannot shine far in this universe. Less than half an astronomical unit away, a strange darkness is slowly crawling like some kind of mollusk or silt. It has no entity. There is not even any gravity or radiation released, but the brilliance of the star will stop abruptly in front of this creeping darkness, as if it is completely swallowed and disappear without a trace.

Suddenly, the creeping darkness changed. The originally blind and scattered "mud" began to become orderly and concentrated, and continued to move towards the edge of darkness. The orange stars hanging alone in this area appeared in an instant. In response, its brightness suddenly increased, and even the star level increased explosively. The orange sea of ​​​​fire turned into a blazing blue-white flame in a thousandth of a second, and a ray of light was formed by gravity and warped space. The long wall blocked the darkness.

The actions of the dark "silt" were blocked, and after a period of stalemate, the changes gradually subsided.

But not all mutations will subside. Less than 20,000 light-years away from this outpost, another star failed to withstand the surge of the black tide, and the warp space was violently torn apart. The destructive force invaded the interior of the ancient celestial body. The surface of the star was suddenly covered with ominous black lines, and it was torn apart along the lines. Some rune-like things flashed away during the disintegration of the star, and everything followed. They were all swallowed up by the darkness, and there was no trace left.

In the more distant universe, ripples of information rippled between the lonely stars. Languages ​​that mortals could not understand were jumping and flowing between the stars like a breeze.

"N-66 outpost went out, sections 73 to 76 failed, inner defense dropped to 32%, and containment failure probability increased to 68%."

"We have lost two-thirds of the inner outposts, and the remaining outposts are in poor condition. The middle outposts are also affected. In the past few days, more than twenty waves of abnormal energy pulses have broken through. Layer defense directly attacked our middle-layer nodes."

"The frequency of attacks is accelerating, the activity of the 'prisoner' is increasing, and it has awakened."

"It's not going well." "It's not going well." "It's not going well."

After a very short silence, the whispers among the stars sounded again.

"The good news is that we can finally confirm the presence of 'reinforcements'."

"It has been observed that a series of unknown facilities are rapidly taking shape at the edge of the Dark Abyss. The energy fluctuations they generate are consistent with the previously observed drones..."

"One of the facilities is releasing a special pulse for our compatriots, and it should be a relay device."

"While the details are unclear, it seems likely that one of our compatriots in the outside world is trying to establish contact with us."

"The energy explosion that occurred deep in the cage should also be related to this matter - that energy explosion directly caused the 'prisoner' to be weakened by at least one-fifth."

"But it also led to a surge in the activity of the 'prisoners', and after that, some of the 'prisoners' behaviors showed a high degree of logic."

After a few seconds of silence, a more ethereal voice joined the whispers among the stars: "There is insufficient information to make precise judgments, but according to the sixth plan of the ancient covenant, we should regard the recent series of changes as the 'final The signal for the start of war."

The thoughts from other stars were turbulent for a moment, and then several voices paid respectful greetings to this ethereal voice: "Warden."

The voice known as the Warden continued: "...the final moment is coming. Regardless of whether reinforcements exist or not, the breakthrough of the inner defense is close at hand. Night watchmen, prepare to fight."

Not a single voice expressed opposition, and all the night watchmen expressed their determination at the first time - even though they knew very well that without reinforcements and the support of the Creation Goddess, it would be impossible for the people of the starry sky to fight against the madness with their own strength. The "final battle" is likely to turn into a complete genocide. However, from the day they chose to stay in this space, they have been prepared for this.

After giving the order to prepare for the final battle, the warden's voice continued: "Second order: Try to establish contact with facilities outside the prison."

This time, a questioning voice finally appeared: "Warden, exchanging information with the outside world is very dangerous. This may weaken the seal strength of the Dark Abyss——"

"According to the fifth plan of the ancient covenant, when the containment is about to fail and there is a tendency for higher mental communication in the outside world, the information shielding should be lifted and contact should be established. And we have already heard the special pulses of our compatriots from those facilities. In any case, It cannot be ignored.”

"Then, I will follow your orders."

In the dark universe, the whispers between the stars finally fell silent again, and the cold and dead silence once again enveloped the entire universe.

But a few minutes later, a star at the edge of this dark space suddenly increased in brightness. Immediately afterwards, countless crystal-clear lines separated from the surface of the star. These crystal lines followed the photosphere. The prominence jet extends into space and quickly condenses into an entity in space. In the center of the stacked crystals, a radiant figure formed by energy clouds and bright nodes is vaguely visible.

A moment later, a shuttle-shaped starship made of crystal appeared above the star. It hovered in the brilliance of the star for a few seconds, and then turned into a stream of light, heading towards the opposite side of the dark abyss. Fly in the direction.

After several consecutive jumps, he finally arrived at his destination. The dark and chaotic anomalous universe was far behind him, and in front of him was a boundless sea of ​​stars.

Although optical observation is difficult to reach, the starship can still detect a majestic building built by drones standing in that sea of ​​​​stars, and that majestic building contains the largest antenna facility, which comes from compatriots. Special pulses are continuously released through the relay of that antenna.

As long as he continues to move forward, he can leave this terrifying dark abyss prison and fall into the embrace of the ordered universe. However, the fusiform crystal starship still stopped at this distance. He knew that once he, as a night watchman, crossed this line, Then the defense of the Dark Abyss Cage will have extremely serious loopholes, and information leakage exceeding the threshold will allow the Crazy Lord to directly project his power into the ordered universe again.

Establishing contact with the outside world is as far as it is allowed.

The shuttle starship came to a standstill and anchored itself with the dark abyss as the base point. Then he raised the bow of the ship, and the crystal structure at the front of the spacecraft changed like flowing water, and soon formed relaxation structures like sails. These crystal sails are bathed in the bright starlight from the ordered universe and shine in space.

The starship carefully adjusted its angle to ensure that each sail could accurately meet the drone building in the distance, and then he made the first call with minimal power:

"This is the Night Watch, the signal has been received from the Dark Abyss Cage. Hello, compatriots."

This greeting spanned the vast space between the stars. After being amplified and relayed by the drone network, it was sent to the information processing center of the Crystal Core Research Station with almost no delay. Asuman was the priority in the listening group. The tallest member has always maintained a state of being mounted 24 hours a day, so this greeting entered his mind immediately.

Even with the unshakable determination of the people of the starry sky, Asuman felt in a trance and even suspected that he was hallucinating.

However, the recording equipment clearly proved the authenticity of this communication.

"The signal has been received, the signal has been received!" Gordon, the ancient giant who was on duty at the information center with Asuman, also heard this greeting. This rock-like giant actually jumped up from his seat. , and almost knocked the thing at hand to the ground. He immediately connected the communication of the entire listening team, and at the same time called Salaman in the hub galaxy, "We received direct communication from the Dark Abyss! Repeat , is a direct communication within the dark abyss!"

On the other side, Asuman has completely calmed down. This citizen of the starry sky fine-tuned the frequency of the drone repeater station based on the signal he heard to enhance the signal quality, and sent his own response: "This is Asuman. , Crystal Core Research Station Listening Team, it’s great to hear the voices of our compatriots again.”

"It's the same with us - no one expected to hear the voices of their fellow citizens again. The world outside now..."

"Please listen to me," Asuman said before the other party finished speaking, "Inform the other sentries immediately that the goddess of creation has returned, and we will launch a glorious and decisive counterattack, so before the day of counterattack arrives, Be sure to conserve your strength and don’t fight head-on with the Lord of Madness! We will still need your support then!”

Then Asuman turned to Gordon, who was busy in front of the communication desk: "Gordon, how are you doing at the hub? Have you contacted the goddess?"

"I have contacted the commander of the Salaman Army. The commander said that my mother is doing her homework. She still has the last half of the question. She will come over immediately after finishing it!"

"...Well, tell the goddess, don't be too anxious, the communication is stable, and the important things have been handed over, let her write seriously..."

(To tell you something, a group of enthusiastic readers organized a meeting. The event will be held in Dongguan on the 16th of this month. I will be there to have fun with everyone on that day~~ If you are interested in learning more, you can join the Q group 292160465 to sign up. In addition, : There will also be mysterious activities on the day =. = Please stay tuned.)
