Chapter 173 Confession
The spacecraft landed one kilometer away from the vortex.
As soon as Chi Wan got off the spaceship, he felt an extremely strong suction force. The energy fluctuations in the air were extremely powerful and unstable, and the sand and stones were all twirled into it. The center of the vortex was like a huge and mysterious black entrance, tempting the soul to approach.
Around the vortex, dazzling searchlights and ghost barriers are intertwined.
Almost no sentinels were close to the vortex; all of them were located one kilometer away.
Experiencing the vortex so intuitively is completely different from a quick glance from the spacecraft.
It is extremely shocking and makes people feel inexplicably frightened.
Chi Wan squinted her eyes due to the wind and sand. Qi Ye looked at her seriously, and spoke in a gentle tone as if coaxing a child:
"Don't get any closer. The energy pulse caused by the gravitational field is very strong."
Chi Wan looked up at him: "Are the black lines on your body caused by energy pulses?"
Looking into her sparkling eyes, Qi Ye could no longer tell a lie.
He narrowed his eyes.
As expected, Pei Yuan should have been allowed to go. He shouldn't have gone to find her just because he wanted to see her so much.
Facing her, he couldn't stand a few lies.
Seeing Qi Ye didn't say anything, Chi Wan's face turned serious and he pointed at the vortex:
"If you don't tell me where the black lines came from, I'll go in and try it myself."
A gust of wind blew, and a gentleman in gray combat uniform appeared in front of Chi Wan.
Also arriving was Astan's falcon circling in the sky.
His eyes swept over Chi Wan, and Pei Yuan's leisurely voice spoke clearly:
"You were asked to comfort her, not bring her to this dangerous place."
As he spoke, he bent down and moved closer to Chi Wan, his voice softening a bit:
"Guide Chi Wan, why are you here so late at night?"
Faced with his approach, Chi Wan subconsciously frowned and stepped back.
This action fell into Pei Yuan's dark gray eyes, causing the warmth that had just emerged to freeze and chilling the heart.
Qi Ye blocked Pei Yuan's body and gently took Chi Wan's hand:
"Come on, I'll show you how that vortex creates the black lines."
There were not many sentries nearby at this moment, and most of them had already rested for the night.
Under Chi Wan's gaze, Qi Ye walked into the energy area of the vortex. Almost as soon as he entered, the extremely strong energy collided with the light green energy around him, producing a fierce energy light, accompanied by a crackling pulse sound, which made people feel very painful just by listening to the sound.
After walking out of the energy area, black smoke appeared on the skin that could be seen under Qi Ye's brand new coat, and black lines were obvious.
Seeing it with her own eyes, Chi Wan believed it and she was depressed:
"Will the black lines be repaired in the future? How long will this vortex last?"
Although he didn't know whether her unhappy look at the moment was due to worry about her fighting partner or something else, Qi Ye couldn't help but feel happy. His eyebrows were gentle and he looked at her seriously:
"If it can't be repaired in the future, will you dislike me?"
Chi Wan wrinkled his nose and said seriously: "Yes!"
She wouldn't, but she wanted him to protect himself.
Little did he know that Qi Ye just laughed softly, with a glimmer of light in his eyes.
"I've long guessed that once Guide Chi Wan opens his mouth, you, the snake, won't be able to refuse anything."
Shen Yu's voice came from behind.
Chi Wan turned around and saw Shen Yu walking towards her.
Seeing that he was also wearing a brand new combat uniform, Chi Wan realized something and suddenly became serious:
"Take off your clothes."
Chen Yu coughed violently twice due to her sudden request, and his ears turned slightly red:
"Do you want to touch your abs?"
…
As expected, Shen Yu's body was also covered with black lines.
In the temporary lounge built around the vortex, Chi Wan looked at the scan image displayed on the instrument and fell into deep thought.
The doctor kept comforting:
"These lines will recover later, but it takes a certain amount of time."
She turned her head and looked at the two of them:
"But isn't the vortex used to imprison the system? Why do you need to enter the energy field?"
"Sometimes pollutants are left behind in the vortex, and we need to enter the energy field and eliminate them as soon as possible."
Qi Ye explained as if it was just an ordinary task:
"I just didn't tell you because I was afraid you would worry."
Shen Yu smiled and moved closer:
"Now you can rest assured, Guide Chi Wan, you can go back and have a good sleep."
Under the light, the boy's crescent-shaped amber eyes carried a warmth that made people forget all their worries.
Chi Wan was really relieved.
It turned out that they were afraid that she would see the scars on their bodies and worry, so they kept it from her.
While she was thinking, Dudu had already come to Chi Wan's feet, looking at her with his round mechanical head, very obedient:
"Sister Chi Wan, Dudu has helped the commanders a lot here, please praise me~"
Chi Wan smiled for the first time since coming here and patted its little head:
“Dudu is the best.”
"It's getting late. I'll have Heiya take you back to the Empire to rest."
Hearing Qi Ye's words, Chi Wan looked outside the lounge and saw Shen Yu leaving with the sentry because of something important.
It can be seen that they are a little busy now, Chi Wan nodded obediently:
"good."
When walking out of the lounge, Chi Wan caught a glimpse of a blue combat uniform in the corner.
That is Yunqi's combat uniform.
She looked away, pretending not to care and chatting with Qi Ye:
"Are you the only three on guard tonight?"
"Um."
Hei Mi also came to Chi Wan at this moment:
"Guide Chiwan, please follow me."
Just as she was about to take a step, Qi Ye held her hand tightly.
The powerful energy field in the background caused the air to deform, creating a mottled halo. He carefully tightened her collar, lowering his eyes to look into hers with immense tenderness:
"Relax, once the system is completely locked down, we'll return to the ALP Galaxy together."
Chi Wan blinked, nodded slightly, and followed Hei Mi away.
After passing through the winding corridor of the Sentinel's temporary rest area, Chi Wan arrived at the landing port of the spacecraft.
The remaining battery level on the beeping screen suddenly flashed through her mind.
Thinking of Yunqi's inconspicuous combat uniform in the corner, my heart kept pounding.
"Guide Chi Wan, please board the spaceship."
Seeing Chi Wan stopped where he was, Hei Mi reminded him softly.
The system's voice also sounded at this moment:
[Host, it's not safe here, let's go back to the castle.]
Chi Wan remained motionless. She turned around, looked at the vortex where the energy was surging even more violently, and spoke softly:
"Heiya, do you believe what you see with your own eyes or your sixth sense?"
Unexpectedly, Chi Wan didn't leave for a long time and turned back to look at the vortex and asked such a question.
Hei Mi looked at the vortex with violent energy fluctuations, and was so anxious that a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
If we don't leave now, it will be over and the mission ordered by the commanders will not be completed.
Hei Mi was stumbling over how to answer when he saw Chi Wan had turned around and was going back the same way.
Heimi's heart skipped a beat and he immediately chased after him.
But no one can stop Chi Wan, who is at the top of SSS level.
Chi Wan quickly walked through the aisle and the somewhat confused group of sentries, looking at the blurry backs of Qi Ye and others in the vortex energy field in the distance.
Suddenly, a white light appeared in the vortex, and a figure covered in blood emerged.
The figure almost left a trail of blood, as if exhausted. As soon as he landed on the ground, he knelt on one knee and supported himself on the ground with a knife.
A hint of blue can be seen in the blood.
The medical staff around seemed to be prepared and rushed forward with medical equipment at the first opportunity.
Leading the crowd, Pei Yuan turned and looked at the petite figure that was almost lost in the night because of the distance, and his dark grey eyes sank.
Qi Ye noticed something and turned around to see Chi Wan coming back and Hei Mi standing behind her with an anxious look on his face.
His brows were slightly furrowed.
…
I can't sleep this night.
In addition to the smell of blood, the air was also filled with a biting damp cold.
Chi Wan finally found out what they were hiding from her.
Qi Ye and his companions didn't have time to explain anything to her before they entered the vortex.
The beeping screen went off and then lit up again.
Only this time, it was white light.
The system in his mind no longer responded, but appeared on Dudu, confessing everything to her with guilt.
The Wild Path Subsystem was originally a part differentiated from the Main God System. It broke away from the traditional Main God Space and absorbed endless evil thoughts after entering the human plane again and again, and developed evil ideas of dominating and destroying the human world.
In order to completely cut off the evil thoughts, the main god system separated from them and changed its own system so that it could no longer produce any evil thoughts.
However, the differentiated evil thoughts were not killed. Instead, they escaped and formed their own system. They expanded their territory by absorbing wild systems from different planes and gradually grew stronger. Later, because of a trace of evil thoughts that were left in the main god space, they successfully devoured many advanced systems and made them their own.
But when the main god system discovered all this, its power was no longer controllable.
In the past half month, the main god system and the evil thought system have been fighting each other. Not only have they been frequently damaged, but they have also been falling apart every day, almost reaching a desperate situation.
Therefore, the main god system thought of the few people in this plane who absorbed the power of the evil thought system, hoping to cooperate with them to build the power of space and let them help it kill the evil thought system.
The system said in a sad voice:
[Host, once the main god system is completely destroyed, this world will be completely overrun by the wild sub-system. At that time, every world will be like the ELN planet, filled with polluted bodies. Only the vicious people possessed by the wild sub-system will dominate the limited power and resources.]
[And the ultimate goal of those systems is not to assist those evil people, but to eventually devour their bodies, replace all humans in this polluted world, completely change the order of this world, and kill the human species.]
[I don't want the world you live in to become like that. This is our last chance.]
[Our main divine dimension's system cannot rashly invade anyone's body except for the designated host. I can only attach myself to Dudu's body and explain everything to them.]
[They agreed after verifying my identity.]
[But we all don't want you to worry, so we decided to keep it a secret from you.]
Chi Wan took a long time to digest this shocking news.
Her voice was a little hoarse due to shock and helplessness:
"Can I enter that vortex and fight?"
[No, host, that is the vortex that connects the Lord God System to them and leads to the evil thought space. Only those who are imbued with the power of the evil thought system can enter. Once ordinary people enter, they will be instantly reduced to ashes.]
Chi Wan looked at the bloodstains on the ground that had not been cleaned up.
I just felt a deep sense of powerlessness welling up in my heart.
