The center of the dimension, the joint command center, is bustling with people, soldiers coming and going in a hurry, busy and hurried.

The spherical screen surrounds it on all sides and is divided into countless small pieces. Each piece has a fierce war scene, raging energy beams, or the figures of living beings roaming the battlefield.

From time to time, the communication signal would be cut off, and then a new signal would be connected.

Every soldier had a tense and solemn expression on his face, and various instructions were transmitted from here to various command nodes in an orderly manner.

"FY--A new X-class lifeform has appeared at node 1145. Urgently dispatch Lord Gaius."

"The enemy at node FY-1375 has been killed. Sir Alves, please proceed to node FY-413 as soon as possible."

"…"

The commander-in-chief was Kostat, standing on the central command podium, and next to him was the deputy commander, who was responsible for filling in the gaps.

Warning sounds are the norm here. The attacks of the Yuan Clan give no one a chance to breathe, and the terrifying life forms emerging from the black fog have no time to rest.

All the soldiers have been maintaining a tense posture since arriving here.

On the second floor, several chiefs of staff were gathered in front of a virtual map.

This is an abstract dimensional world map. The blue node has shrunk further, leaving only almost a quarter of its original size, and is surrounded by misty and invisible black fog.

"This is a meaningless war..." In the corner, Gad communicated with the two people around him in a strange language.

This is an ancient language passed down from the Titan era and is not recorded in today's interstellar translators.

Gad frowned. "These people don't seem to understand that this is already a shallow dimensional world, existing parallel to the main universe."

"Infiltration may have already occurred elsewhere. They are not defending at all. The spread of the Abyss Mist is just instinct. Perhaps Yongyuan doesn't care about them at all."

"They understand." Charles shook his head. "Don't think these people are too stupid. They are just delaying the spread of the Abyss Mist."

"Isn't that stupid?" Gad said with a cold expression. "They are investing resources and energy in meaningless things."

"That's not what they think..." Charles' eyes flickered. "To a certain extent, they are just following orders, the orders of the Overlord."

Speaking of that master, Gad paused and said helplessly: "But this is meaningless. What exactly is that master..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard Costat's urgent voice coming from the first floor, "FY-1378 node is on the verge of loss, urgently mobilize the Mechanical King!"

"Mechanical King..." Charles couldn't help but stand up and look through the window to the next floor, where a war zone suddenly enlarged.

A powerful mechanical body swept across and quickly ended the stalemate.

Even though he had seen this many times before, Charles still found it incredible and couldn't help but say, "The strength of this Mechanical Heavenly King has clearly reached the level of a Dominant, and there are eight of them."

In terms of quantity alone, it is comparable to the peak era of Titan.

It was really hard for him to understand how the master named Li Ming created these mechanical bodies.

Charles sighed again, "Unfortunately, there are certain restrictions that prevent us from continuously exerting this strength. Otherwise, the situation would be much better than it is now."

These mechanical kings are only allowed to be deployed in extremely stalemate battles.

I can't think of any other reason except that there are restrictions that they are not aware of.

Charles looked for a while and then sat back down, chatting with Gad for a few more words. Waterdrop's head shook, but he felt something was wrong.

Not only him, but also several chiefs of staff surrounding the map sand table stopped and looked at each other.

Ever since the Yuan Clan appeared, the alarm that had never stopped ringing in the joint command room suddenly disappeared.

Charles went to the window immediately, thinking that there was some kind of malfunction in the instrument, and looked down.

However, he discovered that the soldiers on the lower levels seemed equally at a loss, staring at each other.

Costat frowned, his eyes fixed on the combat screen in front of him, where the real-time battle situation of multiple defense nodes was synchronized.

The same thing is happening at this moment.

"Retreat, retreat?" Charles shouted in shock, and his water-drop head shone brightly like a light bulb.

Gad's face was already pressed against the glass, staring intently at the battle screen below, his eyes wide open, and he said in shock:

"How is this possible? This kind of scene has never happened before. How could Yongyuan withdraw his troops?"

An indescribable sense of absurdity surged in my heart. There had never been any similar records in the entire Titan or even in the previous evolutionary era.

Ever since Yongyuan became active and the Yuan clan appeared, all it has brought to every evolutionary era is endless war.

But now, in this evolutionary era where even the ultimate life forms have not participated in the war, Yongyuan actually withdrew his troops?

"We, won?" A chief of staff beside him murmured absentmindedly.

Gad couldn't help but turn his head and wanted to scold this ignorant guy harshly.

Win? Who can say they will win against Yong Yuan?

But this scene is really hard to understand.

"Conduct a communications review to confirm the frontline scenario!"

The old Prince Costa reacted quickly and gave the order solemnly.

"Report, there is no problem with the communication channel..."

"Report, summary of the battle situation on the scene, the enemy has indeed withdrawn!"

"Report…"

The sounds rang out one after another, proving that the scene they observed in real time was not false and Yongyuan had indeed withdrawn his troops.

Costat did not relax, nor did he have the naive idea of ​​winning. Instead, he frowned. How could this happen?

But the soldiers below showed a hint of excitement, and many people believed that this represented a phased victory.

The tense mood was relaxed and some people even burst into tears on the spot.

"Don't let your guard down, stay alert, and report any abnormalities immediately..."

Costat gave the order and then walked down from the command platform to convene a high-level meeting.

Soon, many chiefs of staff, Anduin, Anatoly, Alvis, Gaius, and Char, etc., all gathered together...

"...All defense nodes are completely still, and the Abyssal Mist is even shrinking..." Behind Costat was a large, constantly changing screen, showing the scenes at each defense node. "Sir Charles, what are your opinions?"

"There has never been a record of a similar situation before, but one thing is certain, this is by no means a victory." Charles could not help but emphasize, causing dissatisfaction among some people.

“…Just because the Titans can’t do it doesn’t mean we can’t do it in this era of evolution…” A senior staff officer muttered, and Gad glared at him.

Kostat coughed dryly and said solemnly, "Indeed, we must first make one thing clear: this is by no means a victory, not even a temporary one."

"In this case, the emergence of this situation is worth further investigation."

"We must investigate thoroughly," Charles warned. "Eternal Abyss is treacherous and unpredictable. If we don't find out, we might be caught off guard."

"But to figure this out, I'm afraid we have to go deep into the abyss..." Costat frowned.

Although the Abyss Mist is not the power of the Eternal Abyss, it still has great interference with electronic equipment and is extremely dangerous inside. Ordinary detection teams are definitely useless.

"If we want to be absolutely sure, we must use X-level life forms," ​​Charles added.

The expressions of the many X-level life forms present couldn't help but tense up.

Fighting outside the Abyss of Mist is life-threatening, not to mention going deep into it. It is almost a risk of death, and there is no guarantee of finding anything.

The atmosphere in the meeting suddenly became quiet, and Costat also felt the situation was difficult, but he thought of those non-direct life forms that were shackled by the three major civilizations.

“Oh my god…”

Suddenly someone spoke, and everyone looked at them.

Alves?

Costat was a little stunned. He didn't expect that this pillar of the Federation would choose to speak.

"This matter must be clarified." Alves said calmly, "I have been trained by the Federation, and one day I will have to dedicate myself to the Federation."

As soon as these words were spoken, shame appeared on the faces of many X-rated people.

"I'll go with you." Someone else spoke up. It was Gaius, grinning broadly. "I always thought you were too feminine, but today you're unexpected."

The Empire and the Federation each sent one person, and many people subconsciously looked at the group of X-level life forms of the Star Alliance. They looked embarrassed and their eyes were evasive.

After all, the Star Alliance is not a big entity.

Gaius sneered immediately, but before he could say anything, someone said, "You don't have to be so reckless."

He frowned, wondering who was talking without any back pain, but when he turned his eyes, he found that it was Mikhail who was talking.

The two mechanical masters have been here to connect with Charles and provide technical support since the beginning of the war.

"Does it have to be filled with human lives? Wouldn't it be the same with mechanical bodies?" Mikhail said lightly, his eyes filled with the contempt of a top student for a fool.

X-class mechanical body!

Yes, everyone's eyes lit up, but they had subconsciously ignored this point because they were captivated by Yongyuan just now.

The people of the Star Alliance looked at each other, secretly regretting that they should have acted more righteously earlier.

Mikhail said calmly, "Between the two of us, we have a total of sixteen X-Class machines at our disposal. With their communication strength, we can barely maintain some distance in the abyss fog."

"If we're lucky, we might be able to find some clues."

Reynolds' eyes widened, "My goodness, Lao Mi, are you coming out in full force? Such a big bloodletting."

Mikhail glanced at him, idiot. He knew Reynolds had eight X-class machines, but he had ten and two more hidden in his hands.

Gerstatt's expression softened, and he said, "StarCraft will not forget your generosity. We will compensate you after the war."

Mikhail reacted calmly. If they could win, everything would be fine. But if they lost... no one would be better off.

After finalizing the basic plan, everyone took quick action and headed for the nearest defense node.

The black fog was like a wall, surging and moving.

Sixteen mechanical bodies of different shapes communicated with each other, and then Alvis and others carved a series of runes to further enhance the defense and isolate the erosion of the abyss fog.

If it weren't for the power of the Eternal Abyss, but just the Abyss Mist, the damage to higher life forms would be limited.

Then, under the unified operation of Mikhail, the sixteen X-class mechanical bodies slowly sank into the abyss of fog.

A mechanical body stopped and stood at the intersection of the outside world and the abyss of fog, acting as a communication node.

Everyone was watching, nervously and expectantly. After watching them enter, they turned to look at the virtual screen in front of Mikhail.

The signal is not very stable, but after image processing, it can be seen clearly.

The abyss fog was not completely dark, but rather a grayish hue. However, the light emitted by the X-class mechanical body could hardly shine far away.

"It seems that there really are no Abyss Clan members at the border..." Costat carefully identified them, and the X-class machines continued to move forward.

The scenes in the abyss of fog are very boring, and what is surprising is that the barriers between the dimensional worlds seem to have disappeared in the abyss of fog, allowing them to move freely.

Whenever the communication limit is reached, one mechanical body will remain to serve as a communication base station, while the rest will continue to move forward.

"etc…"

After an unknown amount of time, Reynolds shouted and pointed at the screen, "Is that the Yuan Clan?"

The mechanical eye captured it quickly. Everyone was shocked and hurriedly searched the picture. Sure enough, they found a clue.

It seemed that because of the extremely far field of vision, it was only the size of a hair, but if you looked closely, it looked like some kind of whirlpool.

Mikhail hurriedly manipulated the mechanical body forward, and as the scene became clearer, everyone's eyes became shocked.

"What the hell is this!" Reynolds yelled, and everyone's heart was pounding.

That was not a whirlpool at all, but a "torrent" formed by hundreds of millions of dark bodies of the Yuan Clan connected one after another.

There is not just one, there are similar traces farther away, and they are densely packed when you look around.

"Have you seen it?" Costat couldn't help but ask Charles.

Charles shook his head dazedly.

"They seem to be going somewhere..." Mikhail's mechanical pupils spun, "and they have lost their aggressiveness..."

Everyone calmed down and focused.

Although I was surprised, it is now much simpler. I just need to follow the direction of this group of Yuan people and I should be able to find clues.

The remaining mechanical bodies continued to move forward. These Yuan people had lost their aggressiveness, so they encountered almost no interference along the way.

One by one, the machines were left behind, and the distance they advanced became deeper and deeper, until more than half a month later, only three X machines remained, and their movements gradually slowed down.

“…Based on the angle of the vortex, the core area should be here…” Before Mikhail finished speaking, a mechanical body captured the anomaly.

It was an unusually bright light, like a ball of dead white light, and some traces were reflected in the surroundings.

The torrent of the Yuan Clan coming from all directions was like small black pythons, continuously flowing towards the ball of light, and then sinking into it without causing even the slightest ripple.

"This is…"

Mikhail's voice trembled faintly, Kostat's throat rolled, and Alves couldn't help but clench the staff in his hand...

Everyone was so shocked that they couldn't react for a moment.

But immediately afterwards, the picture in front of me suddenly became unstable, and then turned pitch black, and the signal was interrupted.

"What... is that thing? It seems to be absorbing the Abyss?" Gaius couldn't help but ask.
