Chapter 151: Energy
Anaya looked at the photo in the pendant with trembling hands. The girl in the photo had beautiful long pink-gold hair, and her light blue eyes were like the clearest sea, yet as cold as winter snow.
Nono is still the same as she remembers.
No wonder, when I was with her before, she would sometimes glow and grow little antennae when she slept at night. Every time I told her about it, she didn't believe me and thought I was just teasing her.
She had always thought that Nono was not an ordinary human, but she never expected that she was Anunu of the Zerg.
Anaya's nose tingled and tears welled up in her eyes. She never imagined that she would see her old friends who had fought alongside her in this world.
Cangmiao sensed her emotions and gently stroked her long hair in a comforting manner.
Anaya looked up at Cangmiao and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Cangmiao, let's go find Anunu. I want to see her."
Cangmiao lowered his head and kissed her forehead. "Okay, I'll go with you to find Anunu, but you need to recover some energy first."
Anaya had used up too much energy in the River Styx and was still somewhat weak, which was why he brought her to the Zerg to borrow energy stones from Sevier and the others.
Sevier said, "I'll go to the front lines first, and have Augsis lead you to find an energy stone suitable for the Little Holy Spirit."
She couldn't wait any longer. Not being able to sense Anunu's presence made her extremely uneasy and anxious. She had to find Anunu as soon as possible, or at least know where Anunu was.
Although Anunu has only been home with them for a short time, they now fully understand Anunu's personality.
The characteristic of the Zerg is that they do not need a long period of time to get close and understand each other, especially among their closest relatives and family members. They only need to sense each other's aura and establish a connection in their consciousness network to understand everything about each other, including their personality, emotions, and preferences.
This is also why the Zerg are so focused on collectivism and yet xenophobic.
Since returning, Anunu has been processing her emotions and past memories. The nature of the Zerg is to be irritable and easily angered, and she has been suppressing her emotions deep inside, waiting for the day when they will erupt.
Sevier knew that Anunu was going to take revenge on her own. Anunu was like a live volcano about to erupt. If she didn't release the pain in her heart, she would continue to be affected and unhappy.
Sevier asked the ethereal Lord Hibia to open a spatial portal so she could take her important family members directly to their front-line base. As long as Anunu was within the star system's range at the front, she could sense her presence.
Augsis then took Cangmiao and Anaiya to choose an energy stone. Their insectoid race had a wide variety of energy stones, and Cangmiao had borrowed energy stones from them a long time ago, so choosing one suitable for Anaiya was not difficult.
Anaya didn't want to wait in the Zerg camp any longer; she wanted to go to the front lines to find Anno and see her as soon as possible.
Augsis led them to the Zerg's massive energy vault, which contained the Zerg's finest energy stones, their energy reserves.
They have many energy reserves; this is just one of them.
The Zerg are always generous to their friends, especially now that Styx has brought them other allies. This little Holy Spirit is a friend that Anunu has marked, so they have even less reason to refuse. Instead of lending it, they can give them the energy stones directly.
Anaya looked at the enormous energy reservoir in front of her, her eyes filled with amazement and wonder.
This energy storage space is enormous, carved directly from an energy mine. The surrounding mine walls are polished to a very regular shape, like obsidian, with exquisite patterns carved on them that gleam with a soft white light. The entire space is a combination of art and ruggedness, which is truly breathtaking.
In the center of this space is a huge, bottomless, pitch-black pit. Occasionally, a ray of light shines from the pit, as insectoid creatures fly out of it, carrying various tools and baskets filled with ore.
Above the deep pit are various suspended platforms, on which are placed the highest quality energy stones that have been selected by them.
Some of the energy stones were still unpolished and piled up randomly, while others were neatly arranged in various containers.
Augsis led the two to a circular platform in the very center. Above this platform, suspended in a dish, were many energy stones made into various exquisite pieces of jewelry.
Even though Anaiya had seen many expensive and exquisite pieces of jewelry, she still exclaimed in amazement at the energy stone that shone so brightly before her.
The Zerg's energy stones are different from common gems. These energy stones are like the night sky, with each one being a different galaxy or nebula, filled with dazzling, twinkling light.
“These are the best energy stones of our Zerg, prepared by me and Sevier for Anunu. You are the one Anunu likes, so you can choose whatever you like.”
Looking at these energy stones, Anaiya felt they were a bit too precious.
Cangmiao was aware of her concerns and stroked the back of her head, saying, "The energy in these energy stones is very concentrated and pure, much better than what you used before. With it, you don't need to stay in the Zerg to recuperate. You can wear the energy stones and go directly to Anunu."
Augsis replied, "Don't be shy, take whatever you like."
Upon hearing this, Anaiya no longer hesitated and stepped forward to feel the energy stones, searching for the energy that suited her.
Her hand hovered above the energy stone, using the energy threads within her body to sense the energy stone that matched it.
She is the Holy Spirit of the Tianyun Galaxy, just like the Fire Seed of the North River in the past. She is a race that assists others in purifying their genes and improving their gene purity. However, unlike the Fire Seed, the Holy Spirit was born from the Sacred Tree of the Tianyun Galaxy.
Every Tianyun Star human has energy threads within their body. The Holy Spirit uses these energy threads to connect with them and also inherits some of the genes of the connected one.
As long as the sacred tree exists, the Holy Spirits of the Tianyun Galaxy can thrive indefinitely.
Some high-ranking officials in the Northern River Federation had been studying the Holy Spirit and the Holy Tree of the Tianyun Galaxy for a long time.
Compared to their almost lottery-like existence, where a spark might emerge from a petri dish at any time, the birth model of the Holy Spirits and Holy Trees in the Tianyun Galaxy is far more stable in terms of probability than their reliance on that elusive spark.
The Tianyun Star people regard their Holy Spirit as their own life. After discovering that the Beihe Star System had tampered with their Holy Spirit and Holy Tree, they have now joined the Zerg camp without hesitation.
This alliance war was only temporarily quelled three hundred years ago, with each side returning to recuperate. Now, the Zerg's Little King Worm incident is just a fuse. In recent years, various star systems within the alliance have been eager to make moves, especially after the recent conflicts and several large and small wars between the Styx and Tianyun star systems and other star systems, which have already ignited this fire.
The alliance appears calm on the surface, but it is secretly divided. This time, it is not only the Zerg and the Tianhe that have formed an alliance, but other star systems have also begun to act independently and launch interstellar wars.
They all knew that the war that hadn't been resolved three hundred years ago, and the scores that hadn't been settled, would be settled in this alliance war.
This will be a major reshuffle, and no one wants to be left out in this reshuffle.
Three hundred years ago, the Northern River System maintained the energy of the Fire Seeds by relying on stolen Little King Worms, which also greatly enhanced their combat power, making the Northern River System one of the few winners in that alliance war.
But this time, they have lost all their sparks and will be starting over like other galaxies.
However, the Zerg will not give them a chance to get started, determined to block them at their doorstep.
The Zerg will eliminate Beihe first, and then participate in this alliance reshuffle after dealing with Beihe.
The Alliance has been targeting the Zerg for so many years, and they have always been dismissive and disdainful. But this time, for Anunu, they will take this Alliance war seriously.
After sensing each of the energy stones, Anaiya finally stopped at a pink energy stone pendant.
Cangmiao picked up the energy stone pendant and helped her put it on. The dazzling light of the energy stone made her beautiful face even more radiant.
Augsis walked up to her and helped her activate the energy stone.
These energy stones prepared for Anunu were all restricted and could not be used without activation.
As soon as the energy stone was activated, Anaiya felt its surging energy flowing into her body, a warm and comfortable sensation.
Anaya took a deep breath and said to Cangmiao, "Let's go find Anunu quickly."
