A violent energy storm raged around me. Even though it couldn't cause any damage to my body, it was still frightening. In front of me was a crimson ocean. A huge flame tongue appeared out of thin air and then swept around wantonly. Some kind of bright yellow energy ball with unknown function flickered in this raging storm. It was extremely agile, just like Sicarro who swore not to surrender in the pursuit of the Town Security …
Damn it, why did I think of that old bastard!
It had been more than ten minutes since I fell onto the surface of the Crimson Moon, but my body was still descending rapidly. There was a stable gravity inside this strange celestial body, which saved me the trouble of dog-paddling forward in a sea of plasma. Alright, I was curious.
"Tsk, how thick is this energy barrier!"
Although I had used the surrounding energy as a propulsion to increase my speed to ten times the speed of sound, after such a long time, there was still a chaotic crimson in front of me. It made me wonder if the entire giant moon was simply a celestial body formed by this sea of energy. I couldn't help but lose my patience a little.
It was mainly because of the great psychological pressure of traveling endlessly in such a hellish place!
As soon as I complained, a green light that was completely different from the surrounding scenery suddenly flashed in front of me. In the next second, a soft body appeared in my arms.
"Huh? Little thing, why are you … "
I cried out in surprise. The little thing who was originally cheering and enjoying surfing in my neckline suddenly transformed into her God form. I almost lost my balance and couldn't help but exclaim. However, before I could finish my words of surprise, Xiao … En, Jingle came over without warning and then chirped lightly on my lips.
"This way, Ah Jun won't complain!"
Jingle said innocently as if she had just made a great contribution.
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry as I hugged this stupid goddess who didn't know anything. I freed my hand and knocked on her head, "Who taught you this move?"
"Jingle learned it from Sandora!" The green-haired girl said happily, then gently tapped her lips, "But it's strange. I used to kiss Ah Jun often. Why do I feel my lips numb after becoming like this? Ah Jun, Ah Jun! Let's try again! "
"Stop fooling around!" I didn't know whether to laugh or cry as I gently knocked Jingle's head. "It's such a dangerous place and I still need to concentrate."
Although Jingle was the Undying Goddess of Life, the berserk energy in the surroundings wasn't something that she could defend against by herself. That was why I was currently using my energy control talent in conjunction with Jingle's divine power shield to defend against the storm around us. Jingle's divine power shield didn't seem to need to be maintained at all, as it would appear whenever Jingle was in danger. However, as an unlucky mortal, my abilities needed to be guided.
However, the slight cooling sensation just now was indeed memorable. Ahem, this was not some perverted thought, but a perfectly normal reaction.
Just like what Jingle said just now, even though she often got intimate with me in the past, kissing and such was a common occurrence, but after all, the difference between a three-inch nail and a 1.6m tall was huge. The feeling between the two was completely different.
But even though I was reminiscing, when it came to the feeling of ambiguity between a man and a woman, I realized that there wasn't any at all. Jingle's natural holy aura … Regardless of whether you believe it or not, the current her really possessed such an aura. It seemed to be able to purify all thoughts. Even though I was hugging a soft young lady's body, I wasn't able to have any evil thoughts. If I had to describe it, it was the same as hugging Little Bubble to sleep. The feeling wasn't bad and there weren't any evil thoughts.
"Ah Jun," the girl in my embrace suddenly spoke. "You can relax your protection of Jingle. Jingle in her God form is very powerful. It won't be easy for the energy attacks here to harm Jingle."
So, she turned into this so that it would be easier for me?
I was touched by the little brat's concern, but I still wanted to say that if you turned into a three-inch nail and stayed in my pocket, it would be easier for me …
I didn't know how long we had been moving forward, but the chaotic light before us finally calmed down. This meant that we had already passed through the activated energy layer of the giant moon and were gradually approaching its stable core area. A few minutes later, a silver-white crystal shell with evenly distributed holes suddenly appeared before us, confirming my guess.
Jingle gently let go of her arms that were wrapped around my neck and held onto my arm tightly. Then, she closed her eyes and said, "Ah Jun, Jingle is ready!"
I rubbed her head and slowed down. I aimed at a rather large hole in the crystal body's outer shell and rushed in without hesitation.
It was a completely different world.
There wasn't a stronger energy attack that I had expected, nor was there any attack from the automatic defense system. After passing through the crystal shell, which was obviously the core area's protective shield, we found ourselves in a calm and slightly dim spherical space.
The crystal shell that we had just passed through was opaque on the inside. Only the countless holes connected to the energy ocean outside allowed the orange light to pour in. There seemed to be a photon deflection force field in the inner layer of the shell. The light that was supposed to be extremely dazzling became gentle and dim the moment it passed through the holes. The entire spherical space was evenly distributed with just the right amount of light, which made it look very comfortable.
The space wasn't big, with a radius of around one kilometer. I was surprised that such a powerful celestial body would only have such a small area for its core control.
In the middle of the spherical space was our target: a cube that was constantly changing and reforming, just like a Rubik's cube.
"This is the giant moon's … control center?" I looked at the strange device that was operating independently in front of me. "It doesn't look like it can hold an energy core no matter what. Also, this thing is really different from the ordinary Empire equipment."
The cube in front of us, or rather, the Rubik's cube, had a side length of about a hundred meters. Its structure was similar to a human's Rubik's cube toy. However, the way it changed its shape completely defied the common sense of physics. It seemed that every piece of the cube could disregard the laws of structure and reform itself. A gigantic artificial celestial body that was several times the size of the moon actually had a core control center that was only this big. It was simply unbelievable.
Of course, if the giant moon was really just an energy furnace and its energy generator was set up in a different space, perhaps this Rubik's cube was really the only core.
"Ah Jun, there doesn't seem to be any energy interference here." The young lady Jingle had been looking around curiously at the "Rubik's cube". At this moment, she suddenly realized something and reported loudly.
"Huh? It really is. "
I was stunned. Then, I discovered a phenomenon that I had overlooked in the beginning. Under the interference of the energy ocean that spanned thousands of kilometers, the giant moon's core could actually communicate with the outside world?
"Sandora, Sandora, can you hear me?"
Out of curiosity, I tried to connect to Sandora mentally. Originally, due to the giant moon's powerful energy interference, the connection was in a terrible state. Although we could still feel each other's existence, it was impossible for us to talk. However, this time, the moment I finished speaking, Sandora's voice rang in my head. "Ah Jun! I heard you! What happened? Your signal recovered so quickly. Have you already left the giant moon? "
"No, I am now at its core." I roughly described where I was. "There is no energy interference here. It is unbelievably calm. There is something like a Rubik's cube in front of me. It looks like a control center. I have already analyzed its energy flow pattern. It isn't difficult to stop it, but I am curious about the principle of this thing."
As for the giant moon's core being able to ignore the energy shield that spanned thousands of kilometers and achieve zero loss of communication with the outside world, Tawil believed that it was a kind of self-filtering mechanism. In other words, the giant moon wasn't just a simple energy furnace when it was originally designed. It should also have the function of being remotely controlled from the outside world. This might explain the reason why this thing went berserk: its external controller was broken.
Since the interference had disappeared, Tawil, who was already curious about this magical thing, naturally wouldn't let go of this rare opportunity to research it. She immediately requested to share my senses and began to observe the strange Rubik's cube with me.
"I have never seen or heard of this before." That was Tawil's first sentence after seeing the Rubik's cube. "The Empire has actually created such a thing? The technology we used to have was really amazing … "
"What is this thing for?" I asked curiously as I observed the constantly refreshing characters and data on the surface of the Rubik's cube according to Tawil's instructions. "It looks like a series of energy conversion devices.
"It looks like a series of energy conversion devices, but it's really strange. It extracts Void Energy and transforms it into Psionic Energy, then transforms it into Anti-Psionic Energy, then transforms it into Psionic Energy, and then transforms it into Psionic Energy. There are even more complicated and meaningless energy transformations in the middle, all revolving around Void Energy. But after these transformations, none of them are used effectively. Instead, they only provide unlimited energy to the giant moon, making it bigger … Your Majesty, you've analyzed its energy flow pattern. Can you try to activate these little cubes one by one?
It wasn't difficult. According to the energy flow pattern of the Rubik's cube, I began to make the independent small cubes operate at high speed one by one. Immediately, the entire Rubik's cube showed a certain pattern. Through the mental connection, Tawil's surprised voice sounded at the same time, "The giant moon's radiation wavelength has changed! Your Majesty, please … "
"I'm afraid that you will have to stop your research for a while." I suddenly interrupted Tawil, who was in his mad scientist mode, "This Rubik's cube seems to be broken."
I only played with it for a short while. Why did it suddenly break?
The huge Rubik's cube in front of me was bursting with dazzling sparks. Although I didn't know what they were for, it was obvious that they weren't used for fireworks. They fell off the surface of the Rubik's cube, revealing the crystallized core inside. If an expert were to come over and tell me that this was normal mechanical wear and tear, I would immediately smash their faces with a brick!
"Ah Jun, Ah Jun! It's going to explode! It's going to explode! "
The silly goddess, who had been jumping up and down in the Rubik's cube and doing dynamic rock climbing, suddenly transformed back into her Three-Inch Nail form. Then, she decisively crawled back into my collar and shouted softly, "Hurry up and go back! Hurry up and go back!"
Did this silly goddess really forget why we came here?
"Tawil, do you have anything else to say? If not, I will forcefully stop the Rubik's Cube core! " I swallowed a mouthful of saliva and calmly looked at the Rubik's cube that was filled with warning windows. However, I was already prepared to escape at any time.
"Please retrieve the black crystal cube core of the Rubik's Cube. It should be the data center. I have no other requests!" Tawil hurriedly said. Then, he added, "Please be careful. If you forcefully stop the operation of the Rubik's Cube, the giant moon might collapse at any time. Based on my calculations, without the support of the core, this collapse won't become an explosion outwards, but it will definitely become an inward collapse. Therefore, no matter what, please protect your own safety. If necessary, you must not take any risks even if you have to give up this world!"
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. That's all, I will dive first … Cough, cough. Wait for my good news."
I cut off my connection with the outside world and focused my attention on the Rubik's Cube that was gradually disintegrating under the constant energy flow. The first thing that caught my eye was the black crystal core.
As this crystal was kept into my personal space, the Rubik's Cube's collapse reached its peak. Even the light in the spherical space started to flicker. The crystal shell above our heads was instantly covered with startling red cracks. It was obvious that the force field in this space that was used to resist external pressure had gone out of control as the Rubik's Cube shut down.
Outside of this barrier was an energy storm that could instantly annihilate the entire Empire's fleet. Even the explosion of the sun or a supernova couldn't compare to this energy storm!
I concentrated my spiritual power to the extreme and accurately sensed the remaining energy pipelines of the Rubik's Cube. I used my own power to fabricate the energy flow that had already lost its effect. Then, I followed the sequence of high-level energy to low-level energy to weaken the operation strength of the corresponding cubes. This shouldn't have been a difficult task, but due to the Rubik's Cube's rapid changes, it was difficult to grasp the timing. In just two minutes, my head was covered in a layer of cold sweat.
More than half of the Rubik's Cube was still flickering with dangerous sparks of energy. Even the cubes that had been shut down were constantly vibrating and could reactivate at any moment.
Dingdang also became nervous, but she didn't dare to disturb my concentration. She could only transform into her God form and gently wipe the sweat off my forehead. Her life force spread out layer by layer, helping me resist the corrosion of the energy that she didn't have the heart to deal with. This wasn't something that Dingdang was good at, so very quickly, the little thing's face was covered in sweat.
However, I definitely couldn't do as Tawil had said and give up on this world. If I were to take action, the world definitely couldn't be destroyed, you bastard!!
As time passed, the speed of the Rubik's Cube's operation finally started to slow down. However, the energy storm within the spherical space was becoming stronger and stronger. The layer of crystal shell was practically non-existent. The entire space was surging with energy intensity that was exactly the same as the "sea of flames" outside!
When I had first entered, due to the protection of my own power, this red energy was nothing to me. However, I could only spare less than 10% of my attention right now. This violent energy could break through my spiritual shield at any moment … But fortunately, the Rubik's Cube was almost at a standstill.
This is your final struggle!
* Buzz! *
The last thing that sounded in my ears was the buzzing sound of the equipment terminating its operation. The gigantic Rubik's Cube finally dimmed completely. At the same time, the entire spherical space collapsed with a deafening shattering sound.
"Little thing, run!" I grabbed the girl beside me and pulled her into my arms. Then, I randomly chose a direction and charged forward at a crazy speed.
Some people say that in the face of danger, humans would always be able to unleash their greatest potential. I deeply agree with that. Our current speed was definitely much faster than when we first entered!
In front of me was a bizarre and dazzling energy flame tongue. The surging red flames were definitely more terrifying than the magma underground or even the solar prominence on the surface of the sun. If it wasn't for my talent in energy control, even with my strengthened body, I would have instantly turned into a plasma in such an environment. It was precisely because I knew of this danger that I raised my speed to an unprecedented level. However, it felt like the past ten minutes or so felt like several years.
When a dim scene of space finally appeared in front of me, I almost cheered out loud. Damn it, I definitely won't play like this next time. This is too exciting!
"Ah Jun!! Jingle saw a small spaceship over there! "
The sharp-eyed Jingle's sudden shout snapped me back to reality. Following the little thing's direction, I indeed saw a small Empire spaceship not far away to the left.
Shuttle? The one that we took when we came over? It should have crashed into the sea of fire on the surface of the giant moon, right?
Even though I was doubtful, I still changed my direction and dashed towards the unknown shuttle. Below us, the surface of the crimson moon was in a frenzy. The crimson moon that had lost its energy was collapsing inwardly. However, before that, it would definitely have a final burst of energy radiation. However, it would only be a burst of energy before the setting sun.
"Your Majesty, you have succeeded!"
"Tawil!? Why is it you?? "
I entered the shuttle without any obstruction. The person who appeared in front of me was someone that I would never have expected: the mad Frankenstein Scissorhands … cough cough, Tawil.
"I have been waiting here," the bespectacled lady said calmly.
"Waiting here?" I repeated in surprise. "What are you doing here? Didn't the entire Empire fleet retreat? What are you doing here? "
"Waiting for your safe return, or to be buried with you," Tawil said matter-of-factly, but there were two shocking words in his words.
"Buried with me?!" I was dumbfounded. Then, I understood. "Are you an idiot?"
"This is just my duty," Tawil said nonchalantly. "I was the one who suggested for you to enter the heart of the moon. Hence, if anything were to happen to you, I have the duty to be buried with you at the first instance. After some calculations, this position is the best distance."
"What about Sandora? Does she know? "I asked confusedly. Why didn't she stop me? Are all the Shiring Apostles like this when they're in a dead end?
"I didn't let Her Majesty Sandora know about this. It was my own decision."
Looking at the bespectacled lady in front of me who had a serious expression as though she was doing a single-choice question, I broke out in cold sweat. "Scientists are really scary, really!"
