It was Xu Shuangyao! She ignored her own silence and forcibly burst out with her final will to protect her!
This icy force wasn't an attack, but a precise "reverse blade"! It didn't attempt to extinguish the dark purple pollution, but instead instantly constructed an extremely thin barrier of ice crystals around the dark gold embers, one that carried the power of absolute separation and freezing! It was like forcibly expanding a small area of absolute zero in the center of a raging firestorm!
“Sizzle!!!”
A piercing scream, piercing beyond the human ear's reach, erupted from Lin Mo's left eye! The moment the dark purple pollution touched the ice crystal barrier, it was like a red-hot iron being dipped into liquid nitrogen! The spread of the pollution suddenly faltered! The dark purple dots that had been frantically devouring the dark gold embers felt like being pierced by invisible ice needles, emitting a silent scream, their movements instantly becoming sluggish and stiff!
This sudden icy protection was like throwing a piece of ice into a boiling oil pan. Although it was tiny, it instantly broke the fragile and destructive balance between the violent energy and pollution erosion in Lin Mo's body!
More importantly, it was like an icy spike that pierced through the fog of the soul, suddenly...waking up Lin Mo's consciousness, which had been torn to pieces by Pei Du's painful memories and polluted whispers and was on the verge of complete destruction!
“Hurt…who…” Amidst the chaotic fragments of consciousness, Xu Shuangyao’s faint yet incredibly clear protective intent, like a beacon in the darkness, briefly illuminated Lin Mo’s self-awareness! He “saw” the tragic battlefield of dark gold and dark purple in his left eye, and “saw” the ice crystal barrier protecting him, which was being madly attacked by the dark purple contamination! “Shuang…Colonel?!”
An indescribable emotion, a mixture of gratitude, desire to survive, and overwhelming anger at Pei Du's betrayal, erupted like a volcano that had been suppressed for billions of years in the depths of Lin Mo's awakened self-consciousness!
"No!!" Lin Mo's soul roared deafeningly! This roar wasn't directed at any external enemies, but at the dark purple pollution within his body that was frantically corroding and trying to drag him into chaos! It was directed at those cold whispers that were like maggots on his tarsal bones!
Get out of here!!!
Following this angry will originating from the source of life, the dark gold embers protected by the ice crystal barrier seemed to be infused with an unyielding soul and suddenly... exploded!
Not extinguished!
It's burning!
The dark golden flame was not scorching, but a cold fire of order that burned away all filth. It was a mixture of Pei Du's will to burn himself to the ashes, the icy power guarded by Xu Shuangyao, and the purest cry of "existence" that Lin Mo burst out after being forced into a desperate situation. It burst out from the core of the vortex!
This flame is no longer a weak ember, but... a spark of anti-entropy!
Wherever the dark gold flame passed, the dark purple dots, slowed by Xu Shuangyao's icy power, screamed silently, as if encountering the filth of their nemesis. They were instantly ignited, purified, and transformed into nothingness! The flames burned in reverse along the purple veins that had been corroded by the pollution in Lin Mo's body, like a spark that set a prairie on fire, invincible! Each purification brought a soul-tearing pain, but Lin Mo's consciousness held on tightly, turning the pain into fuel, driving the flames to burn even more fiercely!
The vortex in his left eye was completely filled with this dark golden anti-entropy fire! The swirling nebula turned into a burning vortex! The surrounding dark purple pollution was frantically pushed back and purified! Those polluted tentacles that attempted to invade the temple and connect with Xu Shuangyao were like venomous snakes caught in the flames, instantly retracting, breaking, and turning into ashes in the flames!
Inside the life support chamber, Lin Mo's body stopped twitching. Blood no longer gushed from his cracked wounds; instead, wisps of purified black mist emanated. Beneath his frost-covered skin, the spider-web-like purple veins, like snow exposed to sunlight, were rapidly fading!
"Pollution index...plummets!"
"Core energy fluctuations... reappear! Nature... unknown! Intensity... rising!"
"Vital signs...stable?! Are they...recovering?!"
Dr. Owen stared at the miraculous data on the screen, his eyes wide open, his chilblained lips trembling, unable to utter a single word. The medical staff beside him were petrified.
Nearby, a tiny, almost invisible crack appeared on the surface of the dark purple ice crystal that had frozen Xu Shuangyao. Deep within the crack, a faint, yet incredibly tenacious, frost-blue luster flickered... ever so faintly.
Inside the temple, the purplish, polluted mist seemed to encounter an invisible barrier, driven back by the dark golden flames emanating from the burning left eye vortex. The biting chill seemed to weaken slightly.
On the bridge, General Raymond stared intently at the corner of the reactivated main screen—there, the deep purple representing the Cradle's core pollution index was replaced, like a receding tide, by a new, burning, dark gold! A muscle twitched on his bloodstained face, and he exhaled slowly, a long breath of icy white air. His bloodshot eyes, reflecting the new, dark gold, were like finally catching a glimpse of light in the endless night... a ray of light breaking through the darkness... the breaking light of dawn.
Terminal beacon
The tremors on the bridge seemed to subside slightly, but that didn't mean safety, only a deeper silence. General Raymond's bloodshot eyes stared fixedly at the corner of the main screen—a glimmer of newly formed dark gold, like a candle in the wind, stubbornly resisting the deep purple that represented the contamination of the Sea of Entropy. The blood at the corner of his mouth had frozen, but his voice was unwavering: "All remaining energy on board, regardless of loss, should be injected into the Cradle! We still have the spark!"
Inside the Temple of Origin, the backflowing purple mist was driven back by the invisible aura of fire, and the condensed ice spikes ceased their spread. Dr. Owen's withered fingers trembled as he stroked the control console, tears mingling with ice shards as he fell. "The energy channel... is stable! The pollution erosion... has stopped! A miracle... This is a miracle... that Major General Pei Du and Frost... have jointly protected!" He suddenly raised his head and shouted, "Quick! High power on the life support system! Stabilize Lin Mo's vital signs! Analyze that new energy... That's the key to our return home!"
