112 The Beginning of Chaos
◎Huanguang Cricket: It's a pity that you don't have the chance to tell others about this.◎
......
Time passed slowly, more and more people broke through, and the battle became more and more intense. Yu Li and her team also faced two teams from the Ten Thousand Beasts Palace and the Starry Sea of Trees in succession. However, the Mechanical Royal Court had been maintaining a cooperative relationship with them.
With only two days left until the end, a huge wave tens of thousands of meters high suddenly exploded in the deep sea beneath the broken continent. All kinds of huge sea beasts were blown into pieces in the earth-shattering explosion, and blood rained down like a waterfall!
“BOOM!!!!”
Yu Li, who was originally fighting, was affected by the huge vibration, and the enemy she attacked was knocked down by the strong vibration.
Yu Li looked up at the sky. The originally blue sky was now covered by thick dark clouds. Dark purple thunder flashed in these clouds, and heavy rain poured down!
She raised her hand to catch the falling raindrops, feeling the chaotic energy in the air. Uneasy, she whispered, "Why do I feel such an intense unease?"
She didn't notice that the bracelet she had been wearing on her wrist flashed red and then went silent.
When she returned to the central area of Yunchen, everyone else was standing in a circle with a lifelike crane in the middle. If it weren't for the obvious type 1 mechanical pupils in the crane's eyes proving that it was a mechanical creation, Yu Li would probably have mistaken it for a living flying bird.
Huangfu Wen looked at her and said, "Yu Li, you're back."
"Yeah." Yu Li nodded, looked at the crane and said, "Captain Yibai, did you come here to find out about the huge explosion just now?"
The elegant crane spread its pure white wings, looked at the girl and said, "Yes, I have a rough idea, but this is not the most important thing right now."
“?” Yu Li tilted her head.
Lu Xinghe continued, "Yu Li noticed that the ranking on our bracelets hasn't changed since the explosion."
"I didn't pay attention to it." Yu Li opened the light screen of the bracelet and it was just as Lu Xinghe said, the points had not changed.
Realizing this, she frowned. She didn't want anything to go wrong during the competition! She looked at Xianhe and asked, "What's going on? Even if there's a malfunction, the competition team should be able to fix it quickly."
Xianhe nodded and said, "But now the competition hasn't responded. I guess besides this bracelet being useless, the rare item that was transmitting the images was probably also affected by the explosion."
"Even more, because of that explosion, the energy on this planet was already extremely abundant. After this earth-shattering explosion, that overabundant energy began to riot and become chaotic. According to our observations, the chaotic energy has enveloped the entire planet."
"With this chaotic energy, the communication between this planet and the Xingyu Tree Territory has probably been directly cut off after this chaotic energy enveloped the planet. Now this planet has instantly become an isolated island."
As he finished speaking, there was silence.
Yu Li was stunned for a long time after hearing this shocking news, unable to react. Mo Yan looked at her tentacles wrapped around a strand of her long hair, and his low and soft voice entered her mind.
[Don't worry, I will protect you, Ah Li——]
When Yu Li heard Mo Yan's voice, her originally nervous mood gradually eased and she responded in her heart.
Huangfu Wen narrowed his eyes upon hearing Yibai's words and said, "Are you planning to capture all of us contestants...or rather, all the people who are with us?"
Xianhe nodded and said, "I guess so. My guess is that this terror is a powerful external force. This is the most likely possibility."
"So should we call on other forces now?" Yu Li looked at them and asked.
"Yes, after all, we are also the target of this unknown hostile force. We should tell them the news first." Huangfu Wen looked at Xianhe, who nodded and said, "Leave this matter to me."
......
In the Xingyu Tree Sea, bright red blood formed small rivers. Wood elves collapsed to the ground, their eyes wide open in disbelief. Zi Yuting looked at the nine supernatural crystal cores in his hand and sighed, "Only two SS-level crystal cores is still too few, but I think other forces should be able to make up for it."
As he was about to move forward, he found that his feet were being held tightly by someone. He looked down at Hong Su, who was clearly almost dead but still strong, without changing his expression. He shook off his arm and continued forward.
All the people from various forces that had already landed on this planet were already shocked by the earth-shaking explosion. They wanted to find the staff to inquire, but found that these elves launched a fierce attack on them immediately after the explosion, and the various forces began to fall into chaos.
In the Xingyu Tree Territory, the Redwood Clan leader stood on the green jade platform, watching the huge light screen composed of screens turn gray, frowning tightly. An elf with long red hair hurriedly came to the Redwood Clan leader, half-knelt down, and quickly reported:
"...The energy on this planet is experiencing chaos and turmoil due to unknown reasons, which has directly affected our communications."
Chief Redwood looked at him and asked, "Is there any way to reconnect?"
The elf's face was a little stiff, and he mumbled, "This... Although we had a plan before, we didn't expect the energy to explode like this. All our plans are ineffective. We can only wait for the planet to dissipate this energy on its own before we can restore communication. This dissipation process will take about three to six months..."
When the Redwood Clan leader heard his words, his vision darkened. This was a genius from all the big and small forces in the entire galaxy! If they just lost contact like that, other forces might come knocking on their door!
He took a deep breath, suppressed the turmoil in his heart, and said, "Retreat. Mobilize the border guards to this planet. You guys try to see if you can reconnect. I'll go see the Queen!"
"Yes!" The red-haired elf agreed and went downstairs to get busy.
The Redwood Clan leader hurried down the platform and walked through the long white jade corridor. Warm sunlight shone down, and the emerald green ivy wrapped around the corridor swayed slightly, casting mottled shadows.
Da, da——
The sound of soft footsteps was heard, and Chief Mahogany looked at Chief Purple Jade Vine who was standing at the end of the corridor. He stood in the shadows, with long lavender curly hair scattered behind him. The expression on his face looked very gloomy under the shadows, but his lavender eyes were like the abyss, looking a little scary.
Chief Redwood stopped, frowned, and looked at him. He said in a bad tone, "Chief Purple Jade Vine, are you here to see me at this time to laugh at me? Leave after you've seen me. I need to report this accident to the Queen right now, so I won't chat with you here any longer."
As he spoke, he quickened his pace as he walked through the long white jade corridor. He raised his leg and stepped into the shadows. When he was about to pass the Purple Jade Vine Chief, he looked up at the Redwood Chief and smiled. There seemed to be whirlpools in his eyes, which could easily make people fall into them. His tone was very gentle, as if he didn't care about what the Red Rice Chief said at all. He said softly:
"Since Chief Hongmu is going to meet the Queen, I will go too."
"You? You don't have the authority." The Redwood Patriarch spoke to him bluntly.
"yes...."
He smiled and slowly raised his hand, and purple mist spread out. The expression of the Redwood Chief was confused by the mist for a moment, and the next moment.
"puff--!!!"
The muscular, smooth and white forearm directly penetrated the body of the redwood chief, and bright red blood burst out instantly.
"So I need to borrow the identity of the Redwood Clan Leader." The Purple Jade Vine Clan Leader, or should I say the Phantom Cricket, smiled and continued what he had not yet finished saying. He retracted his hand, and the crystal clear supernatural crystal core was in his hand.
The Redwood Clan leader's pupils shrank, and he collapsed to the ground helplessly. He gritted his teeth and looked at the Purple Jade Vine Clan leader. No, he looked at the man whose face was revealed after the mist dissipated. He opened his mouth and said, "You are not the Purple Jade Vine Clan leader. Who are you?"
Huanguang Cricket smiled softly, raised his hand and intercepted the jade token he was about to press. He held the jade token and looked carefully at the Redwood Clan Leader, whose eyes were gradually becoming distracted but still persisting, and said with some interest:
"Logically speaking, if a person's supernatural crystal core is stripped away, they will die immediately, unless they have great perseverance and can hold on for a few breaths. In this way, it seems that Chief Hongmu is truly remarkable, worthy of being a minister deeply loved by the Queen."
The Redwood Clan leader met his ghostly eyes and spoke weakly, his tone indeed very firm, "The accident at the Star Tournament... was arranged by you."
"Yeah, it's a pity that you won't have the chance to tell others about this." Huanguang Cricket smiled, and the purple mist surrounding him swallowed up the Redwood Chief completely, and then wrapped him up in it. The next time he appeared was the 'Redwood Chief' with a serious and anxious face.
He said anxiously, "This matter needs to be reported to the Queen as soon as possible!" He quickened his pace as he walked through the last few steps of the corridor. As he left, the faint purple mist gradually disappeared. The guard standing guard not far away in the corridor blinked and looked at the hurried Redwood Chief.
He was somewhat curious as to why Chief Mahogany had paused for a moment and was talking to himself, but this was not something a guard like him could ask. In the end, he and the other guards who were guarding here watched Chief Mahogany leave for the magnificent yet elegant palace.
......
After that, a day and a night passed, and the Redwood Chief did not walk out of the palace until the layers of protective shields that had been wrapped around the Star Universe Giant Tree were broken by someone unknown. All kinds of overwhelming and ferocious insects rushed into the Star Universe Tree Territory, and the Star Universe Tree Territory fell into endless chaos. Even the Star Universe Giant Tree seemed to be under an unknown attack, and the entire tree began to show signs of withering.
The other forces in the interstellar space finally realized that something had happened because there had been no news from their own teams for so long. They wanted to contact Xingyu Shuhai urgently, but unfortunately Xingyu Shuhai couldn't even solve the chaos on its own main planet, let alone take care of other forces.
The guards who had been guarding outside the palace finally realized something was wrong, but it was too late. When they pushed open the palace door and the purple mist dissipated, they found that the queen was seriously injured and lying in a pool of blood, her life or death unknown.
