Chapter 1411 - Lurkers (2/2)
The commander sighed.
“Wuwuwu-“
Suddenly, an ear-piercing alarm sounded on the radar. It was like a thunderclap, scaring everyone. Not far away, cracks suddenly appeared on the dimensional barrier, and green streams of light shot over.
“It’s the World Tree Blessed Races! Retreat!”
The commander’s expression changed.
The expedition team immediately turned around and locked onto the evacuation route. The shuttle engine buzzed and turned into a stream of light, escaping from this dimension into another.
However, before the expedition team could come to a stop, the alarm on the radar sounded again, and the space cracks opened. Another group of World Tree Blessed Race members was rushing over. “This is a premeditated attack!”
The commander immediately reacted. With a heavy expression, he commanded the fleet to continue fleeing.
The fleet passed through five secondary dimensions in a row, with the World Tree Blessed Races following closely behind them.
Suddenly, the commander stopped running. He took a deep breath and made up his mind.
“Prepare to self-destruct.”
Hearing this, the crew members in the bridge all felt a chill in their hearts. They did not speak or object, only silently activating the self-destruct sequence.
The soldiers of the three Universal Civilizations could not revive as they wished like the World Tree. Without the protection of the Underworld, they would truly die in battle if they died. All the expedition teams were mentally prepared to sacrifice their entire fleet if the situation turned bad.
The energy core stabilizer disintegrated, and the psionic energy that had lost control began to expand, emitting a strong light.
“I’m honored to have worked with all of you. Long live the Dynasty.”
The commander looked at the determined faces of the crew members, saluted, and then looked at the World Tree pursuers outside the porthole. He closed his eyes and prepared to die.
Buzz!
However, at this moment, everything froze in an instant. All the crew members could not move, and the self-destruction process stopped. The psionic energy that was about to go out of control stopped in an instant.
The Secret Tree King’s figure appeared in the cabin unknowingly. He sized up everyone’s determined faces and sneered.
“Quite unyielding. It’s a pity that I came personally. No matter how determined you are, it’s useless.”
The Secret Tree King maintained the effect of the spacetime freeze spell. He rubbed his palm lightly, and the green lustrous power of the Tree King spread out, turning into a space crack. From within, a snake-like World Tree Root extended out and penetrated all the battleships of the expedition team. More and more small tree roots were separated and inserted into the bodies of all the crew members.
Then, these roots absorbed their essence like straws. At the same time, they transformed the team into one of their own by reforming them in the Information Form layer. The expedition team slowly integrated into the World Tree Root and sank deeper.
This process lasted for a long time before the World Tree sucked the entire expedition team in. Then, with a flash of light, it vomited again. However, it was different from before. All the crew members were flowing with green light and transformed into the members of the World Tree.
“Your Excellency Tree King.” The soldiers from the Crimson Dynasty lowered their heads and bowed respectfully.
The Secret Tree King ignored them and focused on the mental network, sharing the memories of these people and the sailing log of the spaceship. After browsing for a while, the Secret Tree King’s eyes flashed, and he revealed a playful expression. “Heh, so it was here. I found your nest.”
At this moment, the Secret Tree King suddenly felt something and looked into the distance.
“Predicting me?”
A cold look appeared in the eyes of the Secret Tree King. His hand gestures changed, and his magic power surged out, following the mysterious sense of the source.
At the same time, somewhere on Floating Dragon Island.
“Pfft!”
Aesop, who was feeling the sudden premonition, was shocked. It was as if his brain had been hit by a hammer, and he collapsed to the ground with a shocked expression.
A cold magical power shattered the foresight in his mind and damaged his spirit.
Those who could cause a backlash to a Foreseer were basically all Mages. With different foresight abilities, the difficulty of the backlash would also change. Aesop’s foresight ability was not ordinary. In all these years, he had experienced countless passive foresight and had also foreseen many Beyond Grade A Mages. The worst-case scenario would be a failure, and this was the first time someone had caused him a backlash.
