Chapter 648 Allies of the Chaotic Rift and the Shadow of the Ultimate Raider (1)
Within the golden light shield of the multi-source core, the consciousness streams of the Guardian, the Fusion, the leader of the red light spot, and the last two team members all carried signs of fatigue and heaviness.
They had just escaped from the consciousness trap of the Black Singularity, but lost track of the gatekeeper and lost most of their elite team members.
The pale gold patterns on the surface of the dimensional rune flickered slightly. The remaining energy of the star core consciousness had completely dissipated, leaving only traces of purple consciousness inside the rune that had not been completely cleared away, reminding everyone that the threat of the mother nest had never been far away.
"We must establish a stable mental connection with the goalkeeper as soon as possible."
The Guardian infuses the runes with the four colors of energy, attempting to locate the Gatekeeper in the chaotic space through the runes' spatial perception capabilities.
The rune's light flickered a few times, conveying a faint spatial coordinate.
This is the location where the gatekeeper last sent a conscious signal, situated within a "gray crack" in the chaotic space.
The merged entity immediately projected its coordinates onto the void and carefully analyzed the spatial properties of the rift:
"The gray rift is a 'consciousness buffer zone' in the chaotic space. The energy fluctuations there are relatively mild and will not easily devour consciousness."
However, the rift is surrounded by a 'disordered flow of time,' and once inside, one's perception of time will be distorted; a short time inside might feel like several hours have passed in the outside world.
The leader of the red dots looked at the coordinates, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes: "We only have five people left now, and our energy is almost depleted."
If we were to re-enter the chaotic space and encounter danger, even self-preservation would become a problem.
Should we recall the defense forces from other dimensional clusters first, consolidate our strength, and then set off again?
The last two team members nodded in agreement, their energy streams still trembling slightly, clearly not yet fully recovered from the previous puppet siege.
The guardian remained silent for a moment, his consciousness sinking into the runes, to reconfirm the stability of the coordinates: "No."
The gatekeeper's consciousness signal was growing weaker and weaker, and the danger in the chaotic space could engulf him at any moment.
Furthermore, the Brood has already begun cultivating Ultimate Raiders using runic source energy; we have no time to wait for other forces to provide support.
He paused for a moment, then continued, "The fusion entity and I went to the Chaos Rift to find the Gatekeeper."
Red Dot Leader, you and two team members remain at the core of the Multiverse to reinforce the golden shield's defenses. Simultaneously, attempt to use anti-plunder energy to repair the purple traces of consciousness on the runes, preventing the Mother Nest from infiltrating again through the runes.
Although the leader of the red dots was worried, he knew it was the best option at present: "You must be careful."
"I will keep a close eye on the golden light shield's defenses, and will immediately send a signal via runes if anything unusual occurs."
The fusion entity divided the remaining portable protective energy pack in half among the guardians:
"These energy packs can sustain an anti-plunder energy supply for four days in the chaotic space."
I also fused the twin source energy with anti-plunder energy to create an 'emergency purifier,' which can quickly remove contamination from siphon energy.
The guardian received the energy pack and bound the four-colored energies to the protective energy of the runes:
"The runes can sense my consciousness fluctuations. Once I encounter danger, they will automatically trigger spatial folding to teleport us back to the core."
Now, let's go.
The merged entity nodded, and the two consciousnesses transformed into two streams of light, entering the "miniature space passage" constructed by dimensional runes.
At the other end of the passage was the entrance to the gray rift in the chaotic space.
Within the chaotic space, there were distorted bands of dark matter energy everywhere, and black spatial fragments floated in the void, exuding an aura of destruction.
At the exit of the miniature spatial passage, a gray crack, like a thin silver ribbon, floats between the dark matter energy bands, and faint fluctuations of consciousness light can be seen inside the crack.
"That's the remnant soul of consciousness the gatekeeper mentioned!"
The white light of the fused body flickered slightly. She could sense hundreds of faint energies of consciousness contained within the crack. These energies all bore traces of being contaminated by the siphon energy, yet they retained a trace of independent consciousness.
The guardian cautiously approached the gray rift, transforming a beam of four-colored energy into a probe light, and sent it inside: "Gatekeeper! Are you in there?"
A moment later, a weak yet familiar signal of consciousness came from the crack: "Guardians... is that you?"
The gatekeeper's black consciousness light slowly drifted out from the crack. His light was much dimmer than before, and several thin strands of dark matter energy were wrapped around his surface, indicating that he had been injured in the crack.
"As long as you're okay!"
The Guardian immediately injected the emergency purifier into the Gatekeeper's stream of consciousness, clearing away the dark matter energy strands from his body.
The fused entity also released twin primal energy, helping the gatekeeper restore its energy.
The gatekeeper's consciousness gradually stabilized, and he pointed inside the crack: "There are hundreds of remnants of consciousness inside, all of them low-dimensional beings that have been controlled by the Mother Nest."
Their consciousness was not completely devoured; they can regain their independent consciousness by purifying them with the protective energy of the runes.
Moreover, they are all familiar with the environment of the Chaos Space and know about the other strongholds of the Mother Nest within it, making them potential allies.
The guardian and the fusion body exchanged a glance, a glimmer of hope flashing in their eyes.
They entered the gray rift and indeed saw hundreds of faint streams of consciousness suspended in the center of the rift. These streams of consciousness were of various shapes, including the consciousness of star cores, the consciousness of dimensional plants, and the consciousness of some low-dimensional creatures that they had never seen before.
"We are the guardians of the multidimensional group, here to help you break free from the control of the nest."
The guardian released the protective energy of the runes, which transformed into a golden rain of light that sprinkled upon the remnants of consciousness.
The moment the golden rain of light touched the remnant soul of consciousness, the purple traces of siphon energy on the surface of the remnant soul began to fade rapidly, and the fluctuations of consciousness became clearer and clearer.
"Finally... someone has come to rescue us..."
A remnant of a star core's consciousness spoke with excitement, conveying a fragment of memory to the guardian: "After being controlled by the Mother Nest, we were forced to mine and plunder energy crystals in the chaotic space."
The main stronghold of the Mother Nest is the Siphon Energy Mine deep within the Purple Nebula, where the Ultimate Raiders are bred.
Furthermore, we know that the Mother Nest has set up a 'dark matter trap array' around the mine to prevent sabotage. Only consciousnesses familiar with the trap array's trajectory can pass through safely.
Other remnants of consciousness also shared more information: some knew the energy replenishment cycle of the mother nest, some were clear about the cultivation progress of the ultimate raider, and some could sense the subtle changes in the movement of stardust in the chaotic space, and could more accurately predict the tide times.
