Chapter 783 The Zerg Queen's Secret (1)
Chapter 783 The Zerg Queen's Secret (1)
The blue energy cage trembled violently under the Queen's impact, its light dimming at a visible speed.
The fusion group transformed into five streaks of light, weaving through the black threads surrounding the Queen, flying towards her head—the most likely location of the Zerg core.
"Watch out for her mouthparts!" Blue Star's voice was filled with anxiety. "The Queen can spray void acid that corrodes everything!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the queen suddenly opened her huge mouth, and dark green acid poured down like a waterfall.
Yan Jin immediately released life energy, constructing a green light shield. The acid fell on the light shield, making a "sizzling" corrosive sound, and the thickness of the light shield instantly decreased by half.
The Lord of Nothingness seized the opportunity, and the black power of nothingness transformed into countless sharp blades, severing the black threads that were wrapping around him.
Canglan mobilized spacetime energy to freeze the space around the Queen's head, creating an opportunity for the fused entity and the consciousness of the origin of order to attack.
"Now!" the fusion entity shouted, its five-colored primordial energy transforming into a lightsaber that pierced towards the queen's compound eyes.
The primordial consciousness of order then activated the Wheel of Order, and golden runes, like chains, bound the Queen's tentacles, restricting her movements.
The lightsaber pierced the queen's compound eye with pinpoint accuracy, and dark green fluid splattered out. The queen let out a shrill roar, violently jerking her head away, throwing the fused entity and the consciousness of the origin of order aside.
A crack suddenly appeared in the shell on her head, through which a faint white light shone—the aura of the primordial energy of the cosmic sea.
"That's... the primordial energy of the cosmic sea!" the fused entity exclaimed in shock. "How could the Queen's core possess such energy?"
Blue Star's voice was filled with confusion: "I don't know! Our universe has never been in contact with other universes, so how can this be?"
The queen seemed to be completely enraged. Her body suddenly swelled several times its original size, and the black threads became even thicker, easily breaking free from the time freeze and the chains of order.
She swung her giant claws, sweeping them towards the fused group, tearing black streaks through the space itself.
"The energy cage is about to collapse!"
Blue Star's voice was filled with despair, "Three minutes left! If we don't find the core soon, we're all doomed!"
A resolute glint flashed in the fused entity's eyes: "I'll distract her, and you two take the opportunity to attack the crack in her head! The core is definitely hidden there!"
Before anyone could respond, the fused entity transformed into a streak of multicolored light and flew toward the Queen's chest.
She deliberately provoked the Queen with her primal energy, and sure enough, the Queen immediately changed her target and slammed her giant claws down.
The fusion creature moved nimbly between the giant claws, constantly unleashing energy attacks and drawing all of the queen's wrath upon itself.
"Do it!"
Yan Jin shouted, joining forces with the Lord of Nothingness, Canglan, and the Origin of Order to converge the four energies into a four-colored beam of light, which shot towards the crack in the Queen's head. The beam struck the crack, and the shell shattered instantly, revealing the core within.
A black crystal, with a small fragment of the primordial core of the cosmic sea embedded in its center!
"It really is a fragment of the origin of the cosmic sea!"
The fusion entity was shocked. "No wonder the Queen's power is so strange; she was transformed by the energy of this fragment!"
Upon seeing the core exposed, the Queen let out an angry roar and charged towards it without regard for anything else.
The fusion entity immediately rushed forward, wanting to retrieve the original fragment, but just as her hand was about to touch the fragment, the fragment suddenly burst out with a strong light, enveloping both her and the queen.
In the intense light, countless images flooded into the consciousness of the merged entity: at the beginning of the birth of the cosmic sea, the original core experienced a tiny explosion, and a small fragment was ejected outside the universe, which happened to fall into this blue universe.
The fragment's energy attracted the originally ordinary Zerg, causing them to evolve into Voidlings, and the Queen was the vessel chosen by the fragment's energy...
"I see……"
The merged entity suddenly realized, "The Queen is also a victim. Her consciousness was distorted by the fragmented energy, which is why she keeps devouring this universe."
The bright light suddenly dissipated, the queen stopped moving, and the madness in her eyes gradually faded, revealing a trace of confusion.
She looked at the fused entity, seemingly wanting to say something, but her body suddenly began to tremble violently, the black threads kept contracting, and the primordial fragments in the core became unstable.
"Oh no! The fragment energy is about to explode!"
The fused entity shouted, immediately embracing the Queen's core and mobilizing its primal energy to try and stabilize the fragment's energy, "Flame, quickly use your life energy to help me!"
Yan Jin immediately rushed forward, continuously injecting green life energy into the fused body.
The Lord of Nothingness and Canglan joined forces to construct an energy shield, isolating the surrounding space and preventing the explosion from affecting other areas of the blue universe.
After some effort, the fragment's energy finally stabilized. The queen's body gradually shrank, eventually transforming into an ordinary insectoid creature the size of a palm, and her eyes regained their clarity.
She nodded to the merged entity, then flew into the depths of the blue universe.
"It's over..." Blue Star breathed a sigh of relief, her blue light filled with gratitude. "Thank you, you saved our universe."
The fused entity carefully collected the fragments of origin, but there was no relaxed expression on its face: "This is not over yet."
Why would fragments of the primordial core of the cosmic ocean appear here? There must be a reason behind this.
Since there's a fragment here, there's probably other fragments scattered outside the universe.
Everyone's expressions turned serious. If other fragments of origin were indeed scattered outside, it could potentially trigger even more crises, just like the Void Insectoids this time.
"We must find other fragments and bring them back to the cosmic ocean."
The primordial consciousness of order firmly stated, "Otherwise, more universes will fall into crisis due to fragmentation, and it may even threaten the cosmic sea itself."
The fused entity nodded and looked at Blue Star: "Blue Star, can you help us detect if there are any other energy fluctuations from other primordial fragments in this universe?"
Blue Star immediately mobilized its primordial energy and began to examine the entire blue universe.
After a moment, he shook his head: "I didn't detect any energy fluctuations from other fragments. It seems there's only this one fragment here."
"Then let's return to the Cosmic Sea first, and then try to find the whereabouts of the other fragments."
The fusion entity said, "Blue Star, if you discover anything unusual, be sure to contact us immediately."
Lan Xing nodded gratefully: "Don't worry, we will. If you need any help, you can contact us anytime, and we will do our best to help you."
The group boarded the Ark of Life and flew towards the cosmic sea.
The ark passed through the space tunnel and returned to the familiar cosmic sea.
As the Ark was about to arrive at the main ship of the Ark of Life, the primordial fragment in the fusion's hand suddenly emitted a strong light, pointing towards the northern region of the cosmic sea.
"The fragments are reacting!"
The amalgamation entity exclaimed excitedly, "It's guiding us to the northern region, where there must be other fragments!"
Flame Ember immediately adjusted the Ark's course: "Great! Let's set off now and find the other fragments!"
The ark flew towards the northern part of the cosmic sea, a frozen galaxy where countless planets were covered by thick ice layers and the air was filled with cold energy.
The light from the primordial fragments grew stronger, clearly indicating that they were getting closer to their target.
