Chapter 693 - Destroying the Core (1/2)

With the parenting system’s assistance, no matter where the main system moved, a red warning side would appear on the machine it was in. What’s more, Chef’s fire wall was closing in on all the systems and Lonemoon had set up multiple sword arrays within in. All around, the supplementary systems were being taken down. They were being constantly reduced in number until there were only a few of them left.

The main system seemed to have realised this. The red warning light above one of the supplementary systems suddenly disappeared. The coarse arms of the huge thing in the middle began to move once again.

[Ding! Reporting to Boss – the target has reverted to its original position.]

The huge plane-tree-looking main system suddenly shot out beams of eye-blinking green light. They resembled lasers, which swept toward the three of them. Everything that the beams of light touched seemed to explode. The beams also seemed to carry with them the aura from the source.

“It’s collecting all the source powers to attack us!” Lonemoon exclaimed. He turned and ran toward Yi Qing, who was still controlling the fire wall. “Chef, quick, avoid these-”

“There’s no need!” Shen Ying interjected. In a flash, she jumped in front of the laser beams. The beams were so close to touching her. Shen Ying stretched out her hand. Immediately, the beams reflected off her hand, as if she was holding a mirror. There were a series of cracks. The smell of something burning filled the air.

Then, they heard a loud crash. The main system, which had been covered in huge cracks, had been hit. A big hole had been blown into its huge body by its own green light.

“We can enter now!” Shen Ying pointed toward a huge crack

Lonemoon: “…”

Yi Qing: “…”

You’re unbelievable!

凸(艹皿艹)

Was this what she called entering the body? She freaking ripped the system apart! It was the worst method of ripping the machine apart, at that!

Shen Ying took one huge step into the center of the system. Lonemoon and Yi Qing exchanged a meaningful look before following her into the machine.

The moment they entered the crack, everything around them changed. The darkness was gone. Instead, they found themselves in pure white territory. There was nothing but light in that place. Faintly, they could feel thick energy from the plane’s source floating in front of them.

Indeed, the next thing they knew, a figure appeared before their eyes. The aura was condensing to form a human figure. The person floated in mid-air. The man was of average height and dressed in black robes. His gaze was cool, yet his face showed no expression. Without opening his mouth, an electronic voice echoed throughout the surroundings. .

“Invaders from a low-grade plan – how dare you challenge the main god. You must give over your souls as the price!”

“Invaders?” Lonemoon looked at the man in mid-air, amused. “Aren’t you the one going around and invading other planes?”

The man frowned, as if very angry. The electronic voice sounded once again, but did not say anything in response to Lonemoon. “You’ve entered my main god’s space. Nobody will be able to defend themselves against me.”

Main god’s space?!

Lonemoon hesitated. Did it lure them here on purpose? He instinctively tried to check his connection with his own plane. Where he could freely form the connection before, he found that he could not now. It was almost as if someone had torn the connection apart.

His chest tightened. Before he could think of another solution, the electronic voice sounded again.

[Successfully adjusted the source’s power. Get ready to redeem the souls. Beginning redemption…]

A huge wind blew past them. There was a series of crashes. Then, they felt a huge suppressive force press down on them Lonemoon’s heart sank. He tightened his grip on the immortal sword in his hands. The force was getting closer and closer… Closer and closer…

Then, it brushed past them…

-_-|||

Lonemoon, Chef, Shen Ying and the parenting system were still standing steadily at their original positions. The force could not even push them out of place, much less steal their souls.

The three of them: “…”

What a scary soul-redemption machine…

╮(╯_╰)╭

[Redemption failed! Increasing power to 70% for second attempt. Beginning redemption…]

There was again the series of crashes, then a suppressive force. Then…

The force brushed past them once again!
