"Warning! Warning! Warning!"
"The system's cross-border transmission is affected by an unknown force and is being locked down! It is expected to be captured by an unknown entity in 8 minutes and 29 seconds!"
What? ? ?
For a blink of an eye, Chang Wei thought he had returned to his own universe. But when he came to his senses, he found that the Light Chaser fleet was in a deep space of extreme darkness, with no reference system, no matter at all, and no sense of time. It was like the depths of the ocean.
At the same time, a burst of rapid alarms came from the system in my brain.
"System, what's going on? Where are we now?"
The system quickly replied: "The host's current location is in the void outside the universe, also known as the Chaos Sea."
"This place is filled with a large amount of chaotic air currents that can obliterate energy and matter. The host's current fleet level can only survive in this chaotic air current for a maximum of 12 seconds before it is reduced to nothingness."
"However, host, there is no need to worry, as the system's teleportation light is covering the entire fleet to prevent the intrusion of chaotic airflow. But right now, the danger the host faces is being locked and absorbed by an unknown entity, making it impossible for the system's teleportation light to escape!"
"Unknown existence? What is that?"
The system quickly brought a picture to Chang Wei's mind.
It was a terrifying insect giant that looked like a spider, with its body covered with sharp hairs, barbs, limbs, tentacles, and a hideous shell.
Hundreds of trillions of sharp fangs were constantly baring their teeth and waving their claws in the giant beast's mouth, as if inviting and waving to the Light Chaser fleet in the teleporting light.
A closer look revealed dozens of spider-web-like threads of unknown energy wrapped around the end of the teleporting light, preventing it from breaking free! Furthermore, they were slowly pulling it towards the giant monster.
Suddenly, the monster seemed to notice Chang Wei's gaze, and countless compound eyes immediately looked towards him.
Boom! A huge sense of fear, as if from the abyss, instantly lingered in Chang Wei's soul. Along with it came a bone-chilling mental message.
"I've got you, little one. You and I will soon become one!"
Snap! Chang Wei's entire body froze, and along with the entire Hyperion crew, they all fell to the cabin floor. Their backs were drenched in cold sweat, and they were completely unable to move. This was due to the absolute mental pressure! It was like a mouse seeing its natural enemy, frozen in place, becoming its prey.
The giant spider-like monster, however, doesn't care. Several pairs of giant claws quickly pull the "silk thread", eager to taste this delicious "snack".
But soon, Zhong Kai let out a muffled groan from the Hyperion. Then, an invisible field of power spread out, instantly awakening all the frozen crew members and simultaneously repelling the monster's mental pressure.
Chang Wei came to his senses, already terrified. He quickly shouted to the system, "System, take us away!"
The system was silent for a few seconds, then quickly came up with a solution.
"The power of the unknown being is unfathomable. If you don't use your full strength, you may risk failure in your escape. And you only have one chance! I suggest the host use all of his mission points and luck points to accelerate his escape with the teleportation light."
Chang Wei's eyes fixed, and without hesitation, he immediately agreed. However, he still cautiously asked the system: "System, if we escape back to our own universe, is there a risk that the monster will track us down?"
The system replied, "Yes! Because the host 1. did not erase the traces left by the cross-border shuttle. 2. Did not cover up the causal line to prevent tracing back. Therefore, for an unknown existence of this level, the probability of being tracked down is almost certain!"
What? Isn't that the difference between dying early and dying late? And there's a good chance you'll be dragging your own universe down with you!
Chang Wei already suspected that this matter was not simple.
Once upon a time, the Light Chaser Fleet rescued so many people in that farm-like universe. However, this ultimately disturbed the unknown existence behind it, forcing them to lie dormant in their own universe for over a year before daring to emerge to accept missions.
However, in the Warhammer 40K universe, we can see the sudden invasion of the Zerg, the invincibility of Jörmungandr, and the purposeful and brutal assassination of the white-haired girl, among other events.
Maybe... from the very beginning, when I was heading into the Warhammer 40K universe, I had been followed.
The existence or force that wants to kill you may be the "person behind the scenes" that you provoked in the farm-type universe.
Putting this together, everything makes sense!
Because the assassination failed, the "person behind the scenes" who received the information waited in front of the "doorstep" of the Warhammer 40K universe in advance and caught himself red-handed!
No! We can't lure such a powerful enemy back to our universe!
Chang Wei asked the system again urgently.
"Is there any other way to get rid of it? We must not lure this monster back home! Otherwise, it will still be a dead end!"
The system recalculated and soon came up with another solution.
"According to the host's request, the fleet's rest period is canceled immediately. A new rescue mission will be immediately initiated to redirect the disaster eastward. Then, the mission will be completed quickly, all traces will be erased, and the team will depart."
When Chang Wei heard this, he thought it was very feasible, so he agreed.
"Then let's begin! Search for rescue signals immediately! Try to choose a universe with a large demon, sparse population, and an extremely dark and hopeless atmosphere. Then we'll rescue the people and leave the other side to rob each other!"
The system was not ambiguous and started searching quickly after receiving Chang Wei's order.
"Ding! Detected a distress signal, the content is as follows..."
Soon, the cold mechanical sound of the system was switched to a voice full of wisdom and sharpness, like that of an old man.
"My fellow Star Spirits, please listen to me!"
"The last twilight has faded, and the galaxy is burning! Humanity has been completely wiped out! In the darkness, only we are left!"
"Even so, even if our lives end today! We must unite! Fight to the very end! EN TARO Tassadar!"
