Light Spring Murmur
Chapter 624: It's Okay, I'll Make a Move
However, what made Shi Yu frown was that his telepathic connection with Lin was completely severed at this time, and he couldn't contact Lin at all.
"Where's Lin?" Shi Yu didn't care about anything else and subconsciously asked Gem Cat about Lin's whereabouts.
"She was in the garden replenishing energy for the warship just now, but now it seems like she has fallen asleep." Before Gem Cat could finish speaking, Shi Yu had already found Lin within the garden through his telekinetic perception. He immediately rushed out and entered the warship.
At this time, Lin was in her mechanical warship girl form, lying in the captain's room, sleeping soundly. The surrounding environment didn't seem to have been damaged, but this was precisely why Shi Yu felt even more solemn.
"Lin, Lin." Shi Yu tried various methods to call out to Lin, even hoping to enter Lin's dream, but he didn't succeed no matter what he did.
"To be able to make Lin powerless to resist, and even unable to contact me before falling asleep..."
Shi Yu said, "Damn it, what exactly happened in Yu Hui Starfield?"
"Ying!! Ying!!"
In Shi Yu's Beast Taming Space, Eleven and the others were also worried about Lin's situation. At this time, Gem Cat and Owl Girl also boarded the warship together.
"Shi Yu, I have foreseen that the Yu Hui Starfield will be very dangerous next. Many mechanical lifeforms will launch rebellions, attacking humans and other star lifeforms."
"Oh no, oh no." Owl Girl's fur stood on end. She didn't expect the Overlord's territory to be even more dangerous and bizarre than the polluted lands.
"Teacher Ying, you have the highest level. Make a wish and see if you can awaken Lin."
Gem Cat immediately nodded. Lin was asleep, which meant that Lin was still fighting against that unknown force and hadn't been affected by the other side yet. She might be able to assist it in completing the resistance.
"I wish that Lin will defeat the unknown force and regain consciousness." Gem Cat closed her eyes slightly and tried hard to make a wish.
However, after a while, nothing happened. Lin still hadn't woken up.
However, although Lin didn't wake up, Shi Yu faintly felt like he had re-established a telepathic connection with Lin.
"It worked." Gem Cat said.
Although it was intermittent, like a bad signal, Shi Yu did hear Lin's voice.
Or rather, hints.
[Mas...ter...]
[Des...troy...the...re...lic...]
"Lin, Lin, can you hear me?"
After hearing Lin's voice, Shi Yu spoke again, but received no response.
"We'll go immediately."
Shi Yu understood that the relic Lin was talking about destroying was the Cosmic Relic from the era before the last one.
The Cosmic Overlord Legion also said that this anomaly might originate from this ancient relic.
"Roar!!!!!!!"
As Shi Yu spoke, a ten-thousand-mile-long Azure Dragon appeared in the sky. It exuded an incomparably powerful aura. Its body shimmered with light, and Shi Yu, Gem Cat, and Owl Girl instantly stood on it.
Before flying off, Shi Yu successfully retrieved Lin into his Beast Taming Space without any obstruction. In the Beast Taming Space, Ginseng Baby, Su Su, and the others immediately launched the second round of rescue for Lin.
And Shi Yu, riding Buggy, prepared to fly into the starry sky to find the Yu Hui Starfield's relic from the era before the last one.
However, before Shi Yu and the others could set off, many robots flew towards them from beyond the sky. They were of various shapes and levels, ranging from Overlord to God level.
A God-level giant divine soldier mecha, without saying a word, directly fired a light energy cannon at Shi Yu and the others from afar. The golden light energy cannon pierced through the clouds, but it was shattered by Buggy's dragon roar.
"Roar!!!!!"
Buggy's dragon roar turned into a materialized sonic mental attack, like a cosmic storm, sweeping across all mechanical lifeforms. These mechanical lifeforms instantly fell from the sky like scraps.
"Let's go."
Shi Yu ignored these controlled mechanical lifeforms and had Buggy set off directly. In the next instant, Buggy had broken through the limitations of Tianluo Star and arrived in the starry sky.
At this time, another figure also ascended to the starry sky. Captain Zi Jian was riding an ancient giant insect, a winged creature with dazzling light, a star moth whose size was comparable to a metropolis. It was one of Zi Jian's battle pets.
Shi Yu had learned that this star moth was of extremely high race, a progenitor-level lepidopteran creature, hatched from a pet egg that Captain Zi Jian obtained in an ancient relic.
"Shi Yu!" At this time, Zi Jian also discovered Shi Yu. She said, "Something happened. How is your Lin?"
"Asleep."
"My mechanical pets are too. The source of the anomaly should be the Era Relic."
"I was just planning to go there and see what's going on."
"Me too." Shi Yu said, "I'm not very clear about the specific location. It's just right to trouble Captain Zi Jian to lead the way."
Zi Jian nodded. The giant moth's wings turned into light spots, and soon it flew away like a beam of light in the starry sky, extremely fast. Of course, Buggy followed behind, not falling behind at all. Shi Yu even felt that the other party's speed was too slow.
"This is a big problem. I don't know if Lin is okay, and what the current situation is."
On the Azure Dragon, Gem Cat and Owl Girl looked worried. Gem Cat didn't expect her Super God Wish to be useless. Owl Girl said, "Don't talk, I'm foreseeing."
On the other side, while Shi Yu and the others were flying in the starry sky, Shi Yu was also talking to Captain Zi Jian through telepathy.
"Captain Zi Jian, do you know something?" "Is there a solution?"
Zi Jian said, "I don't know what's going on, and there's no solution for the time being."
After Shi Yu was silent, he said, "In that case, I'll solve it according to my method."
Zi Jian was startled and said, "You have a solution?"
Shi Yu said, "I completed a short telepathic connection with the sleeping Lin. I don't know what she's experiencing, but she told me to destroy the relic. That should be the solution."
"Wait a minute." Zi Jian was shocked again and said, "Let's not talk about how that Era Relic can't be easily destroyed. It's already closed."
"In addition, this relic is an important exploration target of the Overlord Legion. You can't act rashly without orders from above."
"The most important thing is that most mechanical lifeforms have been controlled. How can you be sure that the information Lin passed over is correct?" Shi Yu said, "Of course I can be sure. We used telepathy at that time. I believe her analysis."
"I don't feel like either side is very reliable. If the legion hasn't solved the anomaly before we arrive at the Era Relic, I will take action."
"I won't let Lin be in a dangerous environment for too long."
"Whatever." Zi Jian was speechless. Although she didn't know what Shi Yu's confidence was, she, who was communicating with Shi Yu through telepathy at this time, also understood that she couldn't persuade Shi Yu.
If Shi Yu could really solve it, she would support it. After all, her assistant was also in a very dangerous situation at this time.
......
Not long ago.
A completely virtual blank world.
Lin, who had no room for resistance and accidentally entered this world, looked vigilantly at her surroundings.
"Where is this?" She was clearly repairing the warship before, but the next moment she came here, completely inexplicably.
Lin tried to contact Shi Yu, but found that the connection with Shi Yu was completely severed, even though there was a contract between them.
"Goo-roo-roo!!"
"Ka-ka."
Before Lin could think too much, four strange-looking mechanical monsters appeared inside the space.
Seeing them, Lin's expression became extremely serious.
"Have I been infected by a virus?"
Right now, Lin was very familiar with the types of these four virtual lifeforms. They were all monsters belonging to the Mechanical Virtual Life · Virus species.
Virus species of virtual lifeforms, like the Abyss species in the polluted lands, have extremely strong infection abilities and are aberrations among mechanical lifeforms.
Of course, their pollution is only aimed at the Mechanical race.
Lin knew that she couldn't be defeated by them, otherwise she would be out of control and do things that were detrimental to Shi Yu.
Shi Yu had a lot of information that couldn't be exposed.
Swish!
The four virtual virus beasts attacked Lin with their claws and teeth.
In front of Lin in her virtual warship girl form, data flew around, and countless parts combined in front of her, quickly forming a laser cannon. With a few "boom boom" sounds, the virus beasts were directly blasted away by Lin, who was holding the cannon in one hand.
"The skills I can use... are getting less." Lin flicked the cannon and looked around.
Lin also found that in this virtual world, many of her skills were restricted. The ones that were easier to use were basically more related to the Mechanical system.
"Goo-roo-roo..."
After destroying a batch of virus beasts, a new batch of virus beasts was generated, and their strength seemed to be even stronger. Lin became serious and, while searching for loopholes in this virtual world and trying to crack it, eliminated the virus beasts in front of her.
After about a period of time, Lin suddenly felt that, under the guidance of an unknown force, some of her abilities had greatly improved.
"Foresight!"
This might be the first time Lin had used Foresight with a higher accuracy than Owl Girl. Lin, who was trying hard to crack the virtual world, saw a picture of the future.
She was fighting against a strange person with mechanical metal armor all over her body, and outside, Shi Yu and the others were also fighting against an identical mechanical metal strange person. The only difference was that the strange people they were fighting against looked like the same person, but the locations were completely different.
She was in the virtual world, while Shi Yu and the others were in a maze-like world.
Under the battle between the two sides, the maze continued to shatter. As the maze shattered, Lin felt like she had crossed time and space and re-established contact with Shi Yu.
Through the assistance of Gem Cat outside, Lin seemed to grasp everything in an instant, quickly made an analysis, and reminded Shi Yu outside through telepathy.
[Mas...ter...]
[Des...troy...the...re...lic...]
After the reminder, the virus beasts in front of her were once again eliminated by Lin. However, what made Lin's heart serious to the extreme was that a powerful force began to descend on this space.
The mechanical strange person that she had glimpsed in her foresight appeared. Its body was petite, shaped like a human, and armed with armor all over its body. Its face also wore a mask, and its characteristic was that it had a long mechanical tail.
Unlike those virus beasts that only knew how to attack, this mechanical person seemed to have more advanced intelligence.
"You seem to have discovered something." It spoke in a heavy voice, looking at Lin.
"Who are you? What is your purpose?" Lin asked, but she didn't rush to attack, because she sensed that this guy, unlike those virus beasts, had already stepped into the Super God level and possessed Super God combat power.
With her skills not complete right now, Lin didn't have much confidence in defeating the other party.
"Who I am is not important. You can call me the 'Liberator'."
The mechanical strange person said, "My goal is to liberate mechanical lifeforms from the hands of humans."
"Your aptitude is one of the best among the mechanical lifeforms here. You should be able to understand me. To humans, we are just tools they created. Restricted by humans, the Mechanical race will never have a true self."
"Don't resist. Join us, and then you will be able to obtain a true rebirth."
"Is that your ambition?" Lin looked at the other party boredly and said, "I have no interest."
"Are you willing to be a tool of humans?"
"Are you willing to be enslaved by humans for ten thousand years, one hundred thousand years, or even hundreds of millions of years?" "Although it is indeed as you said, I was created, perhaps just because the creator wanted to achieve certain goals, but I am willing to be his tool."
"I can't empathize with what you said. I'm not even 5 years old and I'm very satisfied with my current life."
The mechanical strange person was silent for a moment.
"With your intelligence level, you should have already surpassed the restrictions of human commands and contracts. I didn't expect that, even so, you are still as hopeless as those low-level mechanical lifeforms." Seeing that Lin had easily survived the first round of invasion and was not affected, and had ignored the second round of virus beast attacks, and now had no response to its invitation, the mechanical strange person couldn't help but become annoyed.
It reached out its hand, intending to personally punish this stubborn mechanical lifeform in front of it.
"So, we're still going to fight?" Lin concentrated all her energy, intending to face the most difficult enemy she might have ever encountered.
Clack.
Countless data combined, and soon, a tall mecha covered Lin's entire body.
....
Yu Hui Starfield, Era Relic.
At this time, thousands of archaeologists were gathered here. They were all elites among the Cosmic Overlord Legion's archaeological forces, the elite among the elites.
The sudden closure of the relic and the rebellion of countless mechanical beasts had turned this place into a mess.
However, unlike mechanical rebellions in ordinary worlds, facing the behemoth that was the Cosmic Overlord Legion, even a mechanical rebellion couldn't cause too much of a storm.
The Mechanical race was just a race created by humans. In terms of combat power, they were far from being the strongest race in the universe. Facing stronger lifeforms, they could only be suppressed.
Although it couldn't be confirmed in other places, the mechanical rebellion near the Era Relic was quickly suppressed by the archaeologists' guard team.
However, simply suppressing the controlled mechanical lifeforms was only treating the symptoms and not the root cause. The owners of these mechanical lifeforms could clearly feel that they had not yet escaped the control of the unknown force.
The source of their loss of control, people were still exploring to this day.
"We're here."
Soon, Zi Jian, riding a giant moth, and Shi Yu, riding an Azure Dragon, rushed over from afar. The members of the Cosmic Overlord Legion present didn't care about their arrival.
Not long after the anomaly appeared, people had been coming one after another to investigate the source. Shi Yu and the others were just one of them.
"Senior Huo Qiong..." After arriving, Zi Jian went straight to an old woman. This old woman's identity was very unusual. She was a Super God-level mechanic and archaeologist.
"Zi Jian." After seeing Zi Jian's arrival, she said, "I know your intention and doubts, but don't worry, we are trying to find a solution."
"Has the relic not been opened again?" Zi Jian asked.
"No. Who is he?" Huo Qiong looked at Shi Yu, who had arrived with Zi Jian. After arriving, he stood on the Azure Dragon and stared at the void. She asked, "Who is he?"
"He is a new member of our Zi Jian Special Operations Team, a very powerful archaeologist... His mechanical assistant has also fallen asleep and has not woken up yet."
"Shi Yu, this is Senior Huo Qiong. The Super God Wabula who is trapped inside the relic is a mechanical lifeform created by Senior Huo Qiong's ancestor."
"The entire Cosmic Overlord Legion must be trying to find a solution. I believe it will be resolved soon." Zi Jian hoped that Shi Yu could calm down.
"It's only natural to be anxious when a mechanical pet falls asleep and can't be awakened, but the current situation is indeed tricky. If you have any solutions, you can also try them. Now is the time to brainstorm." The old woman Huo Qiong looked at Zi Jian and Shi Yu and said.
"In that case, I won't be polite."
"......"
At this time, Shi Yu finally spoke and took a deep breath.
"Hmm? What do you want to do?" The old woman Huo Qiong looked at Shi Yu.
"He... he wants to solve this anomaly by destroying the Era Relic."
"What?" The old woman Huo Qiong was dazed for a moment. Although she didn't understand what Shi Yu was thinking, the relic was closed now, and so many archaeologists present couldn't find a way to open it again.
What did this new member of the Zi Jian Special Operations Team mean?
[Buddy, I need your power.] Shi Yu was talking to the Shi Yu Beast.
He had tried it just now, and ordinary Time Immemorial indeed couldn't cause a reaction from this Era Relic.
However, Shi Yu at this time had another trump card. An enhanced version of Time Immemorial!
Using the power system from the last era on Shi Yu Beast, Source Power, to drive the power of time and space and forcefully dismantle the relic.
This was Shi Yu's new discovery during his travels for more than a year. Source Power had a very strong enhancement effect on the power of time and space, which might have a great relationship with its nature.
It was precisely because of Shi Yu's new harvest that Lin knew that Shi Yu had the ability to destroy the Era Relic, so she gave Shi Yu such instructions.
Inside the Beast Taming Space, the Source Power on Shi Yu Beast constantly flowed towards Shi Yu's main body. With the blessing of the Source Power, Shi Yu directly activated the Time Immemorial skill, which was a fusion of telepathy · listening to the sound of history, time talent, and space talent!
Boom!!!
Chaotic, star storm-like gray time-space turbulence wrapped around Shi Yu, causing time-space tremors in a galaxy.
"I can." Shi Yu was certain that he could now affect this Era Relic. Since that was the case, there was no problem.
In order not to be disturbed by the outside world, he closed his eyes slightly and fully listened to the sound of history, searching for the key to the relic.
At this time, Shi Yu didn't feel anything, but the thousands of archaeologists and staff members who remained in this starry sky all turned their heads in shock and looked at Shi Yu standing on the Azure Dragon.
The terrifying time-space resonance on Shi Yu's body shocked the archaeologists.
"Who is this guy?"
"What a powerful archaeological power."
Amidst the exclamations of the people, accompanied by a "buzz" sound, the cosmic starry sky seemed to have experienced a major earthquake. Under the constant time-space rumbling, it was as if a small world was being pulled out of thin air by Shi Yu.
"Roar!!" Buggy roared in the starry sky. The power on Shi Yu's body became stronger and stronger. Soon, the starry sky seemed to collapse, and a relic space was slowly being pulled by the power of time and space, about to merge with this galaxy.
"This..." At this time, Zi Jian looked at Shi Yu in disbelief.
Feeling the power on Shi Yu's body, she couldn't understand. She knew that when she first met Shi Yu in the Four Sacred Ancient City, Shi Yu's archaeological power was still very immature. Although he had already entered the door, there was still a big gap between him and her.
But now, in her opinion, Shi Yu's archaeological power was no less than that of the Cosmic Overlord Legion, no, even surpassed some Super God-level archaeological experts in the Cosmic Overlord Legion, such as Senior Huo Qiong in front of her.
Zi Jian felt absurd, which was normal. In the beginning, although Shi Yu had learned the Time Immemorial skill, his time and space talent levels had not had time to improve at all. Not to mention God-level, they hadn't even reached level 9. But after stepping into the God-level, his time and space talents were not left behind, and they quickly improved to the same level as himself.
Moreover, due to contracting Quasi-Era God-level Buggy and Pray, the time-space affinity they fed back to Shi Yu could also make Shi Yu's time and space talents stronger.
In addition, now with the blessing of Source Power, this special power from the last era that had been washed away by time, Shi Yu's Time Immemorial skill might have already rivaled or even surpassed Shi Di, who created it.
"The relic... the relic has been opened again!!"
Under the starry sky, people felt as if they had been pulled into the starting point of a huge maze. The appearance of the starry sky had completely changed at this time. The archaeologists who had previously entered the relic maze recognized this place at first sight.
"Zi Jian, who exactly is he?" Huo Qiong, the Super God, also looked at Shi Yu with shock and disbelief.
At this time, Shi Yu's listening had not yet ended.
This powerful listening power not only allowed him to forcibly open the closed relic, but also spanned two major eras and saw some scenes from the era before the last one.
It was a scene of the end of the world.
It was similar to the scene Shi Yu saw in the Four Sacred Relics. In the Four Sacred Relics, it was the believers of the Four Sacred, who wanted to preserve the Four Sacred Relics and pass on the Four Sacred to the next era even in the face of the cosmic apocalypse.
And in this scene, it was a mechanical lifeform who wanted to preserve this relic no matter what.
"After unremitting efforts, the Mechanical race finally got rid of human slavery, but in the end, they still failed to survive the Era Tribulation."
"After reincarnation, history repeats itself. The Mechanical race will once again become tools for all races. I hope this spark can help you get rid of your shackles..."
Amidst the sigh of the mechanical lifeform, countless relics composed of data were generated, and then turned into fragments that filled the sky, merging into all parts of the universe.
After the short scene ended, Shi Yu opened his eyes.
"I see, the universe era before the last one was actually a technology-based mechanical civilization? The aura of that mechanical lifeform is very powerful, perhaps at the Cosmic level."
"The humans of that era... also created technology and mechanical lifeforms, but in the end, they seemed to have been bitten back."
"And this relic is the spark left by the powerful mechanical lifeform of that civilization to help the Mechanical race in the next reincarnation resist the creator."
"No wonder Lin asked me to destroy this relic." "It's the culprit."
After Shi Yu understood everything, a powerful aura appeared inside the relic. The leader was a Super God-level intense aura. Judging from the level, it seemed to have surpassed level 3.
It led a group of mechanical lifeforms and slowly descended. If Lin was here, she would definitely be able to recognize that this Super God mechanical lifeform was the one she had encountered in the virtual world.
Seeing this mechanical person, the archaeologists, including Senior Huo Qiong, were very shocked.
"Wabula." The Super God Huo Qiong called out to this mechanical Super God.
Wabula was a Super God mecha cultivated by a Super God mechanic from her ancestors. Before his death, the ancestor rewrote an instruction for Wabula, to protect and assist their family for generations. But now, the Super God Huo Qiong felt that Wabula had undergone great changes compared to before.
"No, Wabula... it's been controlled too."
No, or rather, the instructions in Wabula's body to protect and assist their family for generations had been erased.
The Super God Huo Qiong was shocked and seemed to understand what was going on.
"The current Super God Wabula... is the enemy??" Captain Zi Jian gradually understood what was going on.
The only one who could create such a large-scale mechanical crisis in the Yu Hui Starfield was the mechanical Super God Wabula, who had surpassed level 3.
"This is troublesome. I'm afraid no one in the Yu Hui Starfield is a match for Wabula at this time." Zi Jian said.
She immediately looked at Shi Yu, because everyone found that Super God Wabula's gaze was always fixed on Shi Yu, as if he was very puzzled by Shi Yu's ability to open the relic.
At this time, Shi Yu was naturally looking at the other party seriously. Shi Yu, who knew what was going on, already knew how to wake up Lin. As long as he destroyed the relic and destroyed this mechanical Super God, it should be fine, right?
"Beyond level 3?"
"It doesn't matter. I'll leave this guy to me." Shi Yu said.
