"Pei Du! The energy core is overloaded! The matrix nodes are becoming unstable!" Xu Shuangyao (Gaia) thought anxiously. She could clearly feel the furnace debris crystal at the core of the annihilation matrix wailing under the heavy burden. Microscopic cracks appeared on the black crystal shell! The energy of the earth vein shield was also being drained by the matrix, and the light of the golden barrier continued to dim!
"Hold on!" Pei Du's cold will was filled with determination. "Their walls... also have limits! Break them... for me!"
He clenched his teeth fiercely, and the thorn vortex in his left eye spun to its limit, almost burning! The thorn star core in his chest desperately squeezed out the last of its strength! The gray-black light of the annihilation web instantly became deeper and more violent! Like a dying beast erupting with its final bite!
The dark blue data links on the surface of the Wall of Rules flickered and reorganized frantically! The silver-grey light fluctuated violently!
At this decisive moment of struggle——
Buzz!!!
A stream of cold, tough, and unquestionable logical instructions, like a poisoned ice cone, burst out from the bottom of the scarlet data stream in Pei Du's right eye without any warning, and pierced fiercely into the core of his highly concentrated and limitless consciousness!
[Warning! Core protocol conflict! Host behavior pattern detected: excessive energy consumption on non-core tasks (defending Gaia)! ]
[Judgment: Threaten the execution of the core command (Reclaim the Covenant)! Threaten the host's own existence!]
[Forced Stasis Protocol: Ultimate Activation! Energy Output Limit: 100%! Consciousness Takeover: Enforced! Objective: Escape from the battlefield! Reclaim the Covenant!]
“Ugh—!!!”
Pei Du let out a roar of agonizing pain! This betrayal, stemming from within, erupting at the most crucial moment, was more deadly than any external attack! The icy shackles of logic instantly spread throughout his body, like billions of data snakes, madly biting and freezing his thoughts, will, and control over the Thorn Star Core! The very source of the Annihilation Web's output was instantly severed!
boom--!!!
Without Pei Du's will, the annihilation net was like a kite with a broken string, its power plummeting instantly! The gray-black light dimmed and dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Deep in the wormhole, the pressure of the Reaper's rule wall suddenly decreased! The cold mind instantly captured this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
"Logical suppression... Confirm... Target is weak... Execute... Exterminate..."
Buzz——!!!
The dark blue data link on the surface of the Wall of Rules instantly reorganized, illuminating to its maximum brightness! The silver-gray light suddenly expanded! Like a flood, an even stronger, colder force rewriting logic rushed back along the collapsed channel of the Annihilation Network! Its target was Pei Du, defenseless and caught in a conflict of consciousness! And behind him, the fragile earth shield and Gaia Planet!
The deadly torrent of death is at hand!
"No!!" Deep in the core of the earth, Xu Shuangyao screamed in despair! The golden light of the entire earth shield swayed violently, like a candle in the wind!
