Chapter 736 Shutting Down the Star Energy Extractor
Chapter 736 Shutting Down the Star Energy Extractor
"I'm not particularly clear about the specific situation, but based on the information I have at present, the mother star is definitely an extremely large star in the universe. It can be said that all the strong people live on the mother star, and the mother star also gives them powerful powers. However, for some unknown reason, a protracted war suddenly broke out between these strong people. This endless war eventually led to a huge explosion of the mother star, and countless energies scattered in the explosion and drifted to every corner of the universe. The fragments after the explosion of the mother star formed independent planets." The system began to introduce in detail.
"The Titans demonstrated their unique ability in this explosion - soul energy. Their souls were closely integrated with the fragments of their home planet, which then formed planets. Over time, when these planets gathered enough energy, the souls of the Titans awakened again. After becoming familiar with and absorbing this energy from the home planet, they awakened to become the Titans we know today." The system's tone was indifferent, as if all this was just a very normal thing.
However, Yun was completely confused. Was this the origin of the Titans? It turned out that they were just an ordinary race, but because they were too powerful, they were so reckless and didn't care about the lives of others.
It seems to be true. Even in a modern legal society, strong power can still bring many privileges, not to mention in this environment where the strong prey on the weak. For the weak, just surviving is already an extremely difficult thing, so how can they expect to be respected by others?
Just as Yun was thinking about these questions, he suddenly seemed to realize something and asked without hesitation: "What about the ancient god?"
The system paused for a moment, then replied: "On the mother planet, there are three most powerful races, namely the Titans, the Zoraga, and the Protoss. Among them, the Titans relied on their own powerful soul energy to possess the shattered fragments of the mother planet, and through a special method, they transformed a certain energy of the mother planet and awakened. When the mother planet exploded, the Protoss not only lost their bodies, but also voluntarily gave up their physical bodies. They injected all their will into a new energy generated by the explosion of the mother planet."
Hearing this, Yun frowned tightly, his face full of confusion. He asked, "Injection? Brand new energy? How is this possible? How can a newly discovered energy be fully understood in such a short time?"
"The energy contained in the mother star is extremely powerful and complex, but at the moment of the explosion, many rules were completely changed, which gave them the opportunity to observe the nature of energy. It is also because of this that they were able to survive the earth-shaking explosion." The system explained in detail.
"Essence?" Yun looked puzzled and continued to ask.
"Yes, it is mixed energy and single energy." The system answered affirmatively.
"But this doesn't seem to be a difficult concept to understand." Yun became more and more confused.
"However, it is precisely because of their exploration that many ordinary people are able to obtain energy. They have successfully interpreted the essence of energy and are able to obtain energy from the most basic level, which has led to the world we have today." The system further explained.
Hearing this, Yun suddenly understood, but at the same time he was even more surprised. He never thought that the truth of the matter would be like this.
"The last Zorage tribe is completely different from the previous two tribes. They have been persistently searching for their bodies that were shattered in the explosion. Although these bodies have turned into countless pieces, due to the tempering of the explosive energy, they have mastered a single energy and thus survived." The system went on to introduce.
"This... this Zorage tribe is the ancient god tribe?" Yun asked in astonishment and disbelief.
"That's right." The system's answer was concise and direct.
Yun felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart, and he continued to ask: "Then...what about the Protoss who injected energy? Where are they now?"
The system seemed to have anticipated his question and replied slowly, "They are the current Naaru."
Yun's eyes widened, his face full of shock, as if he had heard a shocking secret. He never thought that the three most powerful forces in the universe today all originated from the same mother planet.
"I see..." Yun muttered to himself, "No wonder the fight between them has never stopped, and it has even intensified."
He couldn't help but feel angry and puzzled by the actions of these three forces. "Are they going to keep fighting like this? They blew up their original home planets, and now they want to continue fighting throughout the universe. Do they have to destroy the entire universe before they stop?"
The system simply responded to Yun's question: "I don't know the specific reason, and why they are fighting is still a mystery. But what is certain is that after the explosion, their race has stopped reproducing, and the current number is the remaining number. This is why Lord Flor feels extremely sad every time he kills a Titan or an Ancient God."
"Hmm?" Yuntian frowned and said to himself suspiciously, "Didn't they say that there are more Titans awakening? Why does the number of Titans remain the same?" He was puzzled, because as far as he knew, the number of Titans was increasing! Wasn't there a Titan who had just awakened during the siege of Ezera?
In response to Yuntian's question, the system gave an ambiguous answer: "Well, I'm not sure about this either. All I know is the knowledge that Lord Flor possesses."
Yuntian shook his head helplessly and continued to ask: "So, this is the star energy extractor, right? They collect these souls, are they using them to obtain star energy? But the problem is, they can't use star energy at all! If that's the case, why do they bother to collect these star energies? Also, how can I rescue these trapped souls? If I break here directly, will it cause an explosion?" His heart was full of worries, after all, this was related to the safety of many souls.
The system seemed helpless in answering these questions, and simply replied: "I really don't know anything about the purpose of their collection of star energy. However, it is not difficult to save these souls. All you need to do is turn off the star energy extractor."
"Ah? Close?" Yun Tian couldn't help but feel surprised when he heard this. He widened his eyes and looked at the person who spoke in disbelief.
However, just when he was full of doubts, a circle of light suddenly flashed on a console in front of him, which was obviously a sign of operability in the game. This sudden change surprised Yuntian a little. He hesitated for a moment, but decided to go over to see what was going on.
When he walked to the control console, he found that it was still a mess, with various buttons and indicator lights intertwined, making people dizzy. Yun Tiansheng was a little impatient by nature, and faced with such a scene, he felt a little at a loss as to where to start.
However, there was a place that was clearly marked by the system, which caught Yuntian's attention. He carefully reached out his hand and pressed the marked place, and then the next marked place also lit up.
Yun followed the system's instructions and pressed the buttons one by one. Every time he pressed the buttons, he could feel a slight shaking from the ground. This feeling made him a little uneasy. He didn't know if what he was doing was right or if it would lead to any serious consequences.
"System, what's wrong?" Yun Tian couldn't help but ask, a hint of worry in his voice. He was afraid that he might press the wrong button and cause problems in the entire game.
"The star energy extractor has just stopped." The system's answer was concise and clear, but Yuntian found it a little unbelievable.
"This...it stopped just now?" He muttered to himself, his eyes fixed on the huge star energy extractor. This was a huge device, and it was specifically used to extract star energy, how could it be stopped so easily by him pressing a few times?
Yuntian felt that all this was too unreal, and he couldn't help but start to wonder if he was dreaming.
However, as Yun was staring at the spherical device, he was surprised to find that the souls that were originally trapped together actually began to gradually separate and slowly filled the entire spherical device.
"System, how are they going to get out?" Yun asked anxiously.
The system patiently explained: "It will take some time for the star energy extractor to dissipate all the energy. Once the energy is completely dissipated, it will become a simple energy container. At that time, the soul will be able to easily penetrate it and gain freedom."
After hearing the system's answer, Yun finally felt relieved. After all, the spherical device contained too many souls, which were intertwined and mixed together, making it impossible for Yun to see the specific appearance of each soul.
However, what surprised Yun was that after seeing him, the souls that were originally running around all came towards him without any prior agreement. Seeing this, Yun quickly gave them a comforting look, as if telling them not to be afraid.
Sure enough, after feeling Yun's kindness, some souls gradually stopped being restless and calmed down.
Time passed minute by minute, Yun waited patiently. Finally, he noticed that the originally clear outline of the pipeline began to blur gradually, and finally disappeared completely into the darkness.
At the same time, the souls seemed to have noticed this change. They passed through the pipe without hesitation and floated down like light feathers.
Although it was not the first time that Yun had witnessed the existence of souls, the sight of so many souls rushing straight towards him still made his heart tighten suddenly, and an indescribable sense of tension instantly surged in his heart.
However, when Yun realized that these souls were all his subordinates and were imprisoned in this place by the Titans, he gritted his teeth and resisted the urge in his heart, and did not take any action. Instead, he chose to let these souls pass through his body freely and then circle around him.
Yun was very surprised, because when he had contacted the souls of Sindiyala and Aaron before, they were able to communicate with him. But at this moment, these souls swirling around him did not make any sound, which made Yun puzzled.
He anxiously asked the system what was going on. The system explained: "These souls were not captured by special means, nor were they protected. Due to the long-term impact of star energy, they have suffered serious damage. Now, many of them have lost consciousness, with only a faint soul left."
After hearing this explanation, Yun felt even more depressed. He asked anxiously, "So, is there any way to restore them?" The system replied helplessly, "Unfortunately, there is no way. The soul is the last form of existence of life. Once damaged, it is almost impossible to fully restore it. At present, the best option is to let them return to the other world, so that they may be able to retain the last trace of consciousness."
"What should I do to send them to the other world? They just stay here and have no intention of leaving." Yuntian's eyes gradually became moist, and tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.
"It's actually very simple. You just need to use your energy to guide them to fly upwards. The door to the other world has been opened, and they will be able to enter it easily." The system's voice sounded in Yuntian's mind, as if giving him a glimmer of hope.
Yun Qiang suppressed his inner discomfort, slowly raised his right hand, and concentrated his mind, gathering the energy in his body to his fingertips. As he moved, a bright and vertical energy gushed out like a beam of light.
Sure enough, many souls seemed to be attracted by some kind of force and began to float upward along this energy column. Like light feathers, they slowly rose into the air and gradually disappeared from Yuntian's sight.
As more and more souls drifted away, the number of souls below continued to decrease. However, the souls that remained became clearer and clearer, and each one could show its face and outline.
Yun stared at these souls, and an indescribable emotion surged in his heart. He found that many of them looked familiar to him, as if they were people he had known before.
At this moment, a soul suddenly floated in front of Yun, and stopped there quietly, staring at him. Yun looked closely and was so shocked that he couldn't speak - this soul turned out to be Sindialai!
"Cindy Lai...you...you are really here...you...are so good..." Yun's voice trembled a little, and his throat seemed to be blocked by something. For a moment he didn't know what to say.
Sindyale's mouth moved, but no sound came out. She was stunned for a moment, then shook her head gently, telling Yun not to worry. Then she pointed to the star energy extractor behind her, then pointed to the darkness in the distance, and made a closing gesture.
"Huh? Do you mean to shut down all the star energy extractors?" Yun was a little surprised.
Sindialei nodded, made a cheering gesture, and flew upwards along the cloud's energy beam.
