This was also his greatest trump card.
Precisely because his ans of survival were sufficiently abundant, he dared to risk his life in such a crisis.
“Alright, I trust you.”
Hei Xianyue stared at him steadily and said,
“But I must also make clear, during the energy rampage, I probably won’t be able to protect your safety anymore. Be careful.”
Lynn’s expression softened in an instant. He suddenly grasped Hei Xianyue’s finger, and with gentlemanly seriousness said,
“Thank you for your concern, Miss Puppet. You must be careful too. Don’t let yourself get hurt. If you do, I’ll be heartbroken as well.”
“……”
Silence enveloped the surroundings.
Crows, appearing for no clear reason, awkwardly flew overhead.
Hei Xianyue: (expressionless)
Lynn: “Aren’t you going to give so feedback? After all, I’m being so gentlemanly…”
Hei Xianyue: (expressionless)
Lynn: “Alright then…”
The topic died in an awkward atmosphere.
“Get ready. I’m starting. At least for the next two minutes, I will lose any ability to counterattack.”
Hei Xianyue suddenly floated up, her long hair billowing. Her slender fingers ford a violet hand sign, and heat surged from her fixed gaze as rolling purple light burst forth.
At the sa ti, countless threads spreading from her body were tuned to a specific frequency.
Hum—
In an instant,
a visible wave of Cursed Arts exploded outward from Hei Xianyue as the epicenter, radiating in all directions.
The violent energy spread at incredible speed, instantly enveloping the entire Aberration Fortress and detonating within the Root Network’s tunnels.
And at the very mont of the energy eruption,
all the nano-clusters inside the Aberration Fortress instantly descended into chaos.
The powerful energy blast violently disrupted their information exchange with the Hive, causing data transmission to beco extrely unstable.
“Warning! Warning! Encountered energy resonance interference from an unknown source, nano-cluster information transmission severely affected!”
“Warning! Warning! Encountered unknown source of…”
Accompanied by fierce alerts from the Hive’s special response team consciousness, their links with the nano-clusters noticeably lagged.
On the screen that displayed a three-dinsional map of the underground root network,
their region imdiately calculated an interference radius of at least two thousand ters in diater, the center of which was directly above the Aberration Fortress where their cluster was located!
Instantly,
the nano-clusters that were decomposing and devouring the Aberration Fortress reacted.
“Interference source location locked—detected energy field of a top-tier Transcendent unit—target is releasing violent energy fluctuations—intention is to sever the nano-clusters’ link with us.”
“How naive. It seems that flesh creatures have no experience fighting our nano-clusters. If he had investigated the consequences beforehand, I believe he wouldn’t have made such a foolish misstep.”
The entire special response team consciousness sneered in unison.
They showed no concern.
Because they were not afraid of the nano-storm losing its link to them.
Historically, the Flesh and Blood Cult had repeatedly attempted massive-scale information interference, trying to disrupt the Intelligence Core’s control over the nano-storm to neutralize its destructive power.
But without exception,
their arrogance always led to their own downfall.
Because once the nano-clusters lose control, they automatically activate their basic onboard intelligence, and the mont they disconnect from the host, they beco a pure raging torrent, ravenously devouring everything around them.
Unless control is reestablished.
Otherwise they will expand crazily in disorder, becoming unstoppable.
A beast without a leash is far more ferocious and terrifying than a pet wearing shackles!
Even after their masters created the nano-clusters, explicit orders remained: do not release control over the nano-clusters unless absolutely necessary. If subsequent control cannot be properly reestablished, it is equivalent to opening Pandora’s box.
They sneered.
Truly green and inexperienced, utterly unaware of the danger he was facing.
“Mobilize partial clusters, focus all fire to destroy the interference source. The remaining clusters continue to devour the Aberration Fortress. Execute.”
With that emotionless command,
one third of the nano-clusters were separated inside the Aberration Fortress. Bearing massive latency, they rapidly moved toward the fortress’s outer wall.
They did not care about the nano-clusters losing control.
If they could destroy the interference source quickly, fine. If obstructed, they had no qualms about letting that flesh creature experience what an unchained cluster feels like!
Inside the link chamber, the Commander who was pale and controlling the Aberration Fortress, along with his deputy officers, imdiately felt the massive energy blast coming from above the fortress.
The Commander trembled violently, his face filled with horror.
He instantly understood the Doctor’s intention.
“No! This can’t be!”
His face went ashen and his whole body shook uncontrollably.
Because unlike Lynn, he had witnessed a large-scale nano-storm gone berserk before, and knew from history the consequences of such an event.
If what they faced now was hell, then the out-of-control nano-clusters would be the deepest nightmare of that hell.
“Doctor! Doctor!”
He howled and established a consciousness link with Lynn.
“Stop! Stop! You absolutely cannot sever their connection with the chanical Cult. If you do, the nano-storm will go completely out of control, and then it will be beyond saving!”
But his roar received no response from Lynn.
At this mont,
above the Aberration Fortress, Lynn had noticed the “dust” being forced up the fortress walls from all directions.
A confident smile crept across Lynn’s face as he removed his Monocle and said,
“Zuo Zuo, are you ready to explode?”
Zuo Zuo blinked in shock, “Explode what?”
Lynn smiled mysteriously, “Do you rember what you did the last ti in Silent Town when I was controlled by the Clown’s curse? Or rather, do you rember when you were born, what I did inside that Flesh Puppet’s body?”
At these words, Zuo Zuo was instantly shaken, “Could it be that you want to…”
“Open… what a joke!”
Zuo Zuo was horrified, hurriedly reaching toward Lynn and crying out, "Noooo!"
“If you insist on courting death like that, don’t expect Zuo Zuo to save you afterwards!!”
