Chapter 753
Chapter 753
"They are assimilating our technology!" Firewalls popped up frantically on the screens of Black Tower and Silver Wolf, but were instantly corroded by the purple mist released by the aircraft.
"These dark patterns are not decorations at all, they are..." Silver Wolf's voice stopped abruptly. In the holographic projection, a huge gear slowly rose from the core of the mothership. Engraved on the surface of the gear were the forbidden runes used to seal the Tree of Imaginary Numbers.
Dan Heng's spear glowed green, but all the energy from the tip of the spear was sucked away the moment it touched the aircraft.
“Physical attacks are ineffective! The material of their shells…” His pupils suddenly shrank as he saw the same black veins as the blackened Lin Yu appearing on his gun blade.
"Lin Yu, do you remember the gifts that the failed 'you' left behind? It's time to put them to use!"
The moment the cocoon shell exploded, countless fragments of memories from different timelines swirled around him.
The faith that those sacrificed "selves" injected into the tree core fragments before their death now turned into chains that entangled the core of the mothership.
"So that's it..." Lin Yu gripped the key tightly and stabbed it hard into his chest. The moment the golden blood gushed out, the dark patterns of all the aircraft began to rotate in the opposite direction.
His consciousness sank into the core of the mothership in severe pain, and he saw the horrifying truth.
The so-called repairers were actually the remains of bodies assimilated by the violent tree core, and obsessions still remained in the broken seals on their chests.
Ah Ha's laughter mixed with the roar of the battlefield exploded in his ears.
"Beautiful! Let me see how you can perform this finale!"
As Lin Yu roared, the golden lines collided with the dark purple energy in the core of the mothership, and the entire star field began to distort.
And on the astronomical chart, the black stars representing despair are being lit up one by one by the light of new hope.
The entire battlefield turned into a vortex of light and darkness.
Lin Yu's consciousness split into countless fragments in the violent shock, and each fragment reflected a parallel time and space.
In some worlds, the Menders have crushed galaxies into dust; in some universes, the Tree of Imaginary Numbers has completely gone berserk, with its roots running through all dimensions.
And in a certain flickering timeline, he saw himself and his companions standing side by side in front of the Star Train, with the starry sky returning to peace behind them.
"We can't let this become reality!" Lin Yu's roar penetrated the barrier of consciousness, and the shadow of the imaginary tree in his body grew wildly, and the roots extended along the key of destiny to the core of the mothership.
The assimilated remains roared in pain, and their broken seals began to crumble under the erosion of the golden blood, revealing their struggling consciousness deep within.
"That's it! Turn their despair... into the most absurd comedy!" Ah Ha clenched his fists, and the dome turned into countless prisms, refracting the attacks of the aircraft into harmless spots of light. "Lin Yu, show these old antiques that hope is never accidental!"
At this time, Elio's star disk was spinning to its limit above the battlefield, and each star corresponded to a repairer's mothership.
"Choose now." His voice seemed to come from the end of time, "Do you want to completely wipe out these distorted existences, or... awaken their devoured nature?"
Lin Yu's golden lines suddenly split off and entangled the nearest repairer.
At the moment of contact, a flood of memories flooded into my mind.
The Repairer was once a star god who protected the balance of the universe, but when the tree core went berserk, he was swallowed by despair and was forced to carry out the order to "clear everything".
"You... are just poor people trapped." Lin Yu murmured softly, a soft light appeared in his hand, and began to purify the dark purple energy in the repairer's body.
Kafka's tarot cards turned automatically without any wind, and finally all faced up.
She chuckled and helped Lin Yu stabilize his energy.
The blade's sword traced out a trajectory, severing the tentacles that tried to interfere with the purification.
Silver Wolf weaves a new quantum matrix to redirect the runaway energy back to the core of the mothership.
When the consciousness of the last repairer was awakened, the core of the mothership burst into brilliant white light, and all the dark purple energy was completely purified, turning into light butterflies floating in the sky.
The battlefield returned to calm. Ah Ha slumped on the throne she had formed and gave Lin Yu a thumbs up. "I give this performance full marks!"
She casually threw a dice, and when the dice landed, it turned into an invitation letter, "Don't be absent from the next carnival!"
Elio's star disk slowly dissipated, he looked at Lin Yu deeply, "The thread of fate is still extending." After saying that, his figure disappeared in the crack of time and space.
Kafka raised her hand to tidy up her messy hair, with a faint smile on her lips, "Then...little guy, we will leave too."
"We are here according to the script." Her eyes swept across the faint tree patterns on Lin Yu's chest, and her tone was rarely tinged with emotion, "It's just that these three years... are really a long time."
Lin Yu suddenly grabbed her wrist, and Kafka's pupils shrank slightly.
Before she could react, she was pulled into an embrace filled with the smell of gunpowder.
"Little guy...what are you doing?" She kept her body stiff but did not struggle to break free. She just asked in a puzzled voice.
"I'm sorry." Lin Yu's voice was muffled in her shoulder, and his fingers clenched the fabric of her windbreaker. "I didn't know that three years had passed..."
Kafka was silent for a moment, then reached out and patted him on the back.
"In that dimension, time is different."
"Same as the 'nothingness' area in Omphalos."
"But you have been waiting for me." Lin Yu raised his head, with bloodshot eyes after the battle.
"I saw it all in the tree core fragments."
Kafka chuckled, brushing her fingertips over the scrapes on his cheek.
"After all, it's just part of the script." She took a half step back to create some distance, but when she turned around, she quietly clenched the tarot cards hidden in her sleeve.
The Hanged Man card had somehow become a brand new upright position.
"Next time we meet, I hope you won't make yourself so embarrassed again."
"and many more!"
"How is Liu...Liu Ying?" Lin Yu asked nervously.
"She has gone to live with Ruan Mei. Your two children have grown up and their physical fitness has reached a safe value. They will not grow any more."
"That's good..that's good."
"Don't show that expression." Kafka raised her hand and tapped his forehead. "They are all waiting for you to come back, but before that..."
"Pull yourself out of the quagmire of fate first, little one."
San Yueqi jumped to Lin Yu's side and held his wrist. "No matter what's ahead, our train team will never leave you behind! Right Dan Heng?"
"When you need me, I'm always available."
"Well... I'll help too." Xing suddenly spoke, tears still hanging on her eyelashes and her voice trembling.
She sniffed, raised her hand and wiped her face roughly, but the more she wiped, the more tears came.
"Xing...why are you crying?" Lin Yu panicked and clumsily searched his pockets for a handkerchief, but couldn't find it.
He looked around for help. Heita was busy debugging and pretending not to see anything. Jizi lowered her head to tidy up. Even Aha and Hanabi, who always loved to tease, whistled tactfully.
"I thought you...you abandoned us..."
Her voice suddenly choked, and she simply buried her face in Lin Yu's shoulder, her tears soaking her coat that was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
Kafka leaned on the edge of the rift, a soft smile on her lips.
She shook the tarot cards in her hand, and the cards had turned into the lovers' upright position without her noticing.
"Okay, okay, your face is red from crying and you don't look like the Xing we know."
She blinked at Lin Yu and said, "Little guy, you should practice your ability to comfort people."
"Otherwise, if I get angry..."
"No, just forget what I said."
Kafka smiled at everyone, then stepped into the crack and disappeared.
