Chapter 1978 - 1565: Reinforcements
Legendary Level Star Destroyer · Immortal Blade
Su Mo lay on the bed, sound asleep, as a terrifying tide of negative energy swept past.
The next second, Su Mo abruptly opened his eyes and sat up.
Su Mo instinctively covered his heart, which was beating very fast; he felt inexplicably agitated.
At this moment, another wave of red halo swept by.
Su Mo felt even more uncomfortable.
"Not good, it’s a continuous surge of negative energy tides."
The creator, Swallower, said to Su Mo.
"Did it erupt again so soon?"
Su Mo’s expression shifted slightly, responding solemnly.
At that moment, Su Mo’s electronic bracelet vibrated. He glanced at it and saw that Qian Chengxue was contacting him.
He immediately answered.
Qian Chengxue first asked with concern, "Su Mo, are you okay?"
"I’m fine, what about you?"
"I’m alright, but I just received information that there’s trouble on the Heart of Forbidden Prison side."
Qian Chengxue hurriedly reported to Su Mo.
Upon hearing this, Su Mo flipped out of bed and asked.
"Is the situation serious?"
"It’s not looking good, quite a few laborers have gone wrong, they’re attacking each other, even damaging equipment."
Qian Chengxue explained to him.
"What about our Legion? How is the situation now?"
Su Mo immediately asked.
"Except for the First Team, which has no issues, others have problems to varying degrees. Many people are out of control, currently under full suppression. Also, Lan Xi has taken the doctors to start treatments."
Qian Chengxue gave Su Mo a rough report of the situation.
"Order Kendi to gather personnel, come with me to the Heart of Forbidden Prison."
Su Mo immediately made a decision. The top priority now is to stabilize the situation at the Heart of Forbidden Prison. The internal unrest of the Legion should settle quickly given time for Sun Duoxiang and Xiao Wen to handle it.
"Alright!"
Qian Chengxue nodded in approval.
...
At the same time, negative energy tides hit the Mechanical Empire, Laurel Kingdom at the First Birthplace, the Second Birthplace, the Third Birthplace countries, and even all residents in Star Ring City.
Those who had listened to Icaroya’s speech, already anxious, uneasy, and angry, many immediately experienced a collapse of negative emotions, mutating in an instant.
They began attacking everywhere in madness!
Overnight, chaos erupted within each country.
Including within Star Ring City, where many also had issues, mobilizing all the Guard Teams.
In the center of the Administrative Council Building, Icaroya stood at the window, gazing at the tumultuous Star Ring City with eyes full of shifting glows.
A sound of footsteps came, and Green Ghost walked in, reporting to Icaroya.
"City Lord, Negative God Star has erupted again, and this time the negative energy tide is stronger than before, already causing severe unrest..."
Icaroya interrupted Green Ghost, saying indifferently.
"Let those matters be handled by the subordinates, I’m only interested in whether the transportation of those Star Drills is safe."
"Understood, I’ll handle it right away."
Green Ghost took a deep breath and then retreated.
Icaroya quietly watched the unrest in Star Ring City, knowing that tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.
...
The Heart of Forbidden Prison.
Lin Zinuo, Dr. Abik, and other key personnel were gathered together.
Guard soldiers who hadn’t mutated controlled mechas, wielding alloy blades to cut down the invading mutated individuals.
Blood splattered!
At this moment, Su Mo drove in with Mad Eye Rhenhok and his team.
"Su Mo!"
Lin Zinuo, upon seeing Su Mo, immediately called out.
Seeing that Lin Zinuo and the others were fine, Su Mo breathed a sigh of relief and quickly approached.
"Are you okay?"
"I’m fine, but we have a big problem."
Lin Zinuo replied to Su Mo with a worried expression.
"Don’t worry, I’ll handle the mutated individuals. Most of the laborers don’t have weapons, so it should be manageable. I’ll capture them all as soon as possible, and those who can be saved will be, not giving up on anyone."
Su Mo reassured him.
"It’s not as simple as you think. While they don’t have weapons, many dispersed into various areas of the Heart of Forbidden Prison after mutating. The place is huge, with too many hiding spots. Mishandling this will definitely impact future operations."
Lin Zinuo immediately explained the critical aspect.
Hearing this, Su Mo realized the key issue.
He immediately felt some difficulty; if the mutated individuals were to disperse and hide, dealing with them would be incredibly troublesome.
At this point, Kendi spoke up: "Boss, the event has occurred. What we need to do is minimize impact and casualties. Let’s immediately set up a safe zone for those who haven’t mutated, protect them, and then start a wide-ranging Fan Wu cleanup."
"Alright!"
Su Mo agreed in response.
....
Mijak Star Sea.
The numerous troops of the Eternal Sleep Clan, using spiritual energy to refresh themselves and resist the impact of the negative energy tide, began disconnecting one by one and dispersing.
At this time, Amilek, Brunan, and the Vice Clan Leaders flew out of the fortress, scanning the surviving troops, their expressions exceptionally gloomy.
"Still, quite a lot of people died."
Brunan said in a deep voice.
Mogasi replied solemnly: "That bit of sacrifice is not much of a concern; the only problem is our current forces find it very difficult to launch a fatal attack on that woman Icaroya!"
"Don’t be in a hurry; soon the situation will change."
Amilek said with confidence.
"Oh? Do you have a catalyst or a plan?"
Brunan and others looked at Amilek.
Before Amilek could speak, a huge rift suddenly appeared in the distant sky.
Countless Spirit Touchers, Dandelion Fortresses, and Wind Shuttle-class ships began pouring out like a tide, in a shocking number.
At this moment, a terrifying stream of light shot out from inside, appearing in front of Amilek and others in an instant.
Looking closely, a figure emerged, five hundred meters tall, with a massive body covered in murky neural circuits. Its drop-shaped, enormous head was embedded with a pitch-black eyeball, its mouth revealing sharp fangs, and its spiral-shaped claws emanated a chilling gleam. The entire body featured countless special circuits, radiating with strange light, as a Spirit Toucher appeared.
This Spirit Toucher was none other than the first Vice Clan Leader of the Eternal Sleep Clan, Type VI Star Lord Level Spirit Toucher, Patrick.
Its power aura was entirely restrained, not giving off a strong oppressive feeling.
"Patrick, you’ve come?"
Brunan said in surprise.
"After Kalron was heavily impacted, the Clan Leader was extremely angry and upset, so I was sent ahead with the troops to support. The Clan Leader is currently assembling troops from all major Colonization Star Seas and Star Domains. Once completed, will personally arrive at the Negative Universe!"
Patrick replied arrogantly.
"With the Clan Leader personally arriving, it settles everything."
Mogasi said excitedly.
At this point, Patrick said, "With the Clan Leader arriving, everything will naturally be resolved, but is this good? Shouldn’t we clear out the obstructive Star Ring City before the Clan Leader arrives, as a gift to welcome them?"
"It’s not that we don’t want to, but Star Ring City is indeed a tough nut to crack, and the second’s attitude is incredibly ambiguous, unwilling to defect no matter what."
Brunan replied, finding it tricky.
"You don’t need to worry about that. This time, I brought a total of 1 trillion units of troops and several strategic fortresses. Most importantly, I brought Alrek’s strongest body over. With this body, Alrek can exert his true strength. Do you really think I can’t take down a mere Star Ring City?"
Patrick said proudly.
Alrek, hearing this, was also excited beyond measure.
"You brought my new body? That’s great! Who can stop us now!"
