The sky here used to be pink.
But it had been a long time since such a scene appeared … because it was always covered by all sorts of things, such as the light of explosions, a large amount of dust, insects that covered the sky, or …
A huge meteorite.
A burning meteorite streaked across the sky. Its light dyed heaven and earth in a layer of red. Accompanied by a whistling sound, the giant object that symbolized the destruction of heaven and earth was getting closer and closer to the ground.
However, the creatures on the ground this time weren't sitting still like before.
They looked like huge disks, each with a diameter of more than 20 meters. There were hundreds of these disks on this crystal plain. On the surface of these disks, a dazzling light was blooming.
As the light became stronger and stronger, huge balls of light formed on the disks and flew into the sky. Their target was the burning meteorite.
Boom! The light spread across the sky.
The violent storm created by the explosion hit the entire plain, blowing away all the objects on the plain. The huge disks maintained their shape amidst the violent airwaves. The strong airflow didn't hurt them, but …
Bang!
A huge rock smashed into the center of the disk, causing countless cracks to spread across its body. Its body collapsed, turning into crystal fragments all over the ground.
After the meteorite exploded, the flying fragments were like a meteor shower. They dragged long trails of flame as they crashed into the sparkling ground and the crystal disks that had attacked them just now.
Many disks were shattered, but the damage caused was much less than if the entire meteorite had crashed down.
After the flames in the sky stopped, many … creatures with tentacles crawled out from under the disks. They started waving their tentacles as if celebrating a victory.
However, were they really celebrating a victory? Would this creature called the crystal squid celebrate a victory?
The insects didn't think about this question. While the squid was doing this, the insects were already in the Void … on the satellite that was orbiting the crystal world.
A large number of holes were spread all over this barren satellite. Countless insects were moving around. Most of them were Void Cockroaches. They were adapted to various extreme environments in the Void. There were other types of insects besides the Void Cockroaches. Some of the holes were filled with "cocoons." They were Void Cockroaches that were in the midst of transformation. Normal cockroaches couldn't spin cocoons, but Void Cockroaches could.
They dissolved themselves in the cocoons and reconstructed their bodies. The Inca insects were using this method to rapidly transform their army.
Now, the normal Void Cockroach army was still doing their previous job of digging out huge rocks to attack. What they needed to do was find a suitable rock material and dig out a large enough rock. Then, they would let the flying beetles pull the rock away and throw it at the sparkling crystal world in the sky.
The crystal world was still like a beautiful gem floating in the Void. It was a stark contrast to this barren satellite that was full of holes.
However, the meteorites dug out from the satellite caused quite a bit of damage to the crystal world. They were thrown piece by piece by the beetles. These meteorites had already destroyed dozens of cities.
Of course, this wasn't enough. The Inca insects planned to use the meteorite fire to burn the entire world. The huge beetles moved back and forth in the Void, transporting meteorites one after another.
Sometimes, the insects thought that the meteorites weren't explosive enough. Therefore, they added a large number of explosive troops to the meteorites.
Under the destructive firework attack, the creatures called the Crystal Squid no longer built fixed buildings on the surface. Instead, they changed into highly mobile … troops.
They transformed the buildings into something similar to machinery. All the buildings were transformed into discs, spheres, and other shapes related to circles.
These structures all had … limbs. They moved around the world with the Crystal Squid without any fixed position.
The insects didn't care that much. The meteorites continued to fall from the sky, smashing a huge hole in the ground of the crystal world.
Every time the meteorites fell on the heads of the Crystal Squid troops, they would launch a defense. All the crystal machines would attack the sky, shattering the meteorites before they hit the ground.
Although this would also cause damage, most of the Crystal Squid troops could … survive the meteorites that exploded in the sky.
Then, the Crystal Squid troops would launch a celebratory action. However, at this time, they would usually see …
The sky that was covered by the light of the explosion was already covered by the insects.
These insects looked like huge moths. When they flapped their wings, a red rainstorm would fall from the sky.
Countless tiny glowing objects flew down with the flapping of the moths' wings. The Crystal Squid troops also began to react. They threw the dazzling balls of light into the sky.
When the balls of light exploded in the middle of the insect swarm, the raindrops formed by the glowing objects also fell on the bodies of the crystal machines. The surface of the crystal machines instantly seemed to be … decomposed. They began to break apart bit by bit.
This battle didn't last long. Countless insects turned into smoke and dust in the light, and the crystal army was completely drowned by the raindrops.
After the battle ended, there were countless huge wreckages left on the ground. They were originally the Crystal Squid's crystal machines, but now they were just piles of cracked crystal pieces.
The sky was covered by dust. These dust originally formed the insect swarm. Even though the huge insect swarm was blown into powder, it still covered the sky.
However, this scene didn't last for long.
The dust in the sky, the wreckages on the ground, they began to disappear one by one, one by one.
It was as if some kind of mysterious power was cleaning the sky and the ground. After a while, the sky regained its pink luster, and the ground became extremely clean. Even the cracks and wounds left by the explosion became smooth and neat. This made the explosion marks look like exquisite carvings, and not traces left behind by the battle.
This world regained its beauty once again, but its protectors were complaining about it. Somewhere nearby, the Crystal Squid troops received the news of the destruction of this troop.
A large number of running spherical crystals and countless Crystal Squid soldiers quickly rushed over from afar. However, before they could retrieve anything, they realized that the wreckage of the destruction troop had disappeared.
The Crystal Squids began to communicate with each other. They were like real squids, changing colors on the outer layer of the crystal to express their thoughts.
Although the colors looked very colorful, they were now expressing one meaning, and that was to complain about the disappearance.
They felt that there shouldn't be such a thing as disappearing. Otherwise, not only would they not be able to retrieve their own troops, they also wouldn't be able to study the enemy's … wreckage.
The Crystal Squids stood beside the spherical crystals, waving their tentacles and changing colors. The scene of them communicating with each other was all seen by a small insect flying in the sky.
This insect's body was like a mosquito, but its eyes were huge and its vision was broad. They were usually called Insignia Eyes, and they were also used to observe everything in the Crystal World.
What it saw was shared by all the insects. What the Crystal Squids communicated with each other was also known by the insects.
The Insignia insects spent some time to understand the Crystal Squids' 'language.' This meant that the Crystal Squids were an opponent worthy of understanding, and not a target to be destroyed without understanding.
However, victory was only a matter of time. The Crystal Squid troops could only focus on defense, and they were unable to counterattack the insect troops in the void.
Even if they only used wave after wave of 'cannon fodder' to suppress them, the Crystal Squids would be unable to resist sooner or later.
As for the Insignia insects, they were more concerned about something else … and that was the disappearance of the wreckage.
Where did the wreckage go? The Insignia insects had been receiving intermittent messages recently.
This message was sent by someone called 'The Most Gentle Cryopteris in History.' The message mentioned something.
It was about a world filled with wreckage.
Although the messages were intermittent and incomplete, the Insignia insects still had a general understanding of that world. It was a world filled with wreckage. The wreckage that disappeared from this world should have all gone there.
The strange 'wilding' power was affecting that world, causing all the creatures in that world to become part of the ecosystem and unable to escape.
In the intermittent messages, the Cryopteris said that it believed that the 'abandoned world' should be near the 'Surface World,' which was also the Crystal World.
It could be another Tumbler in the galaxy or something.
Therefore, the Insignia insects let some of the beetles that were originally responsible for pulling the meteorites take off and explore the nearby worlds.
The galaxy of the Crystal World, excluding the satellites, only had a total of three Tumblers.
The Crystal World was like a gorgeous jewel that was located in a suitable location, allowing it to have a suitable temperature and environment for cellular creatures.
As for the other two, one was extremely close to the star and looked like it would be swallowed by the star's light at any time. The surface of that star was also boiling.
The other was very far away and was a barren world covered in extreme cold.
These two worlds did not match the description of the abandoned world by the Cryopteris. The temperature and environment of the abandoned world indicated that it should be in the same location as the Crystal World.
Therefore, it could be somewhere else and could not be found here.
Moreover, the abandoned world could not be teleported. It seemed to be a world that was very difficult to find.
However, it was not completely impossible to teleport. There seemed to be many ways … to reach that place because it was closely related to this place.
