Soul of Burning Steel

The starting point is the edge of the galaxy, Jetrum Starfield.

The world of Jet Rum, on a continent that has been transformed beyond recognition.

The world has turned into a gray one. From a distance, it looks like a flat piece of white paper. Even the ocean is densely covered with sporadic and regular gray spots, and the lines are like circuit boards. The blue rune lines run through all the gray spots. The dots, flickering brightly and darkly, absorb all the energy of the whole world from the atmosphere to the core of the earth.

A black, huge metal building like a city is located on the dividing line between the sea and the mainland.

Its shape is similar to a disk, but there are two symmetrical towers in the center. Between the twin towers, thunder is flickering, and the magic power enough to shake the world is gathering, turning into a blue vortex with a diameter of more than four kilometers. And a 10,000-meter-long huge space-time rift is just suspended on the top of the twin towers, erratic.

Crash--the rain is falling. The abnormal magic power condenses water vapor, making the sky gloomy, and it rains icy cold. The damp water vapor soaks everything, allowing the too dense magic power to return to heaven and earth through this cycle.

And under the dark and gloomy sky, in the rain formed by the condensed magic power, a white-haired old man was standing at the core center of the time-space hub, fine-tuning the frequency of the entire hub with magic power.

In the twenty-seven light curtains in front of the old man, endless information flows, and the complicated runes in every corner of each light curtain are like a book from the sky. If ordinary people take a look at it, the knowledge and power that is too dense will flow straight into their hearts. If you are lucky, you will just be in a coma. If you are not lucky, you will probably go crazy.

The old man was concentrating on his work, engrossed in it, completely forgetting himself. He seemed to have completely given up his attention to the material world, and abandoned the exorcism left in reality.

And at this moment, behind the old man, a figure hidden in nothingness suddenly appeared from the material world. With the sudden burst of spiritual energy, a figure mixed with reality and illusion held a divine power mixed with divine power, which was enough to annihilate and assimilate everything. The blade of energy stabbed straight at the back of the old man's head with the momentum of a white rainbow penetrating the sun!

Everything happened in an instant counted in microseconds. Because of the illusory body, the speed of the raider had almost no resistance, and it ran through everything like a streamer. It seemed that its purpose was not only to destroy the old man's brain, but also to destroy the space-time hub. The core center of the body is also destroyed together!

The old man didn't realize it, and didn't react at all, allowing the opponent to attack.

But just when the attacker was overjoyed and thought he had succeeded, the moment the divine blade touched the old man's skin, it instantly collapsed and turned into golden particles all over the sky. The old man's body was also shocked and decomposed into psionic particles all over the sky.

He recalculated the positioning and removed thousands of redundant and wrong transmission lines. Finally, Barnier had time to look around. He frowned, looked at the golden psionic particles in the sky, and cursed in a low voice: "These little things , why don’t you know the lesson.”

Since more than 20 days ago, there have been raiders from high-level civilizations from other worlds who have crossed the defense line at the edge of the world's galaxy, preparing to assassinate Barnier and destroy this space-time hub. Even more powerful existence.

But this space-time hub can be regarded as a clone of the Myriad Realms Sacrifice Field in the alien galaxy. Its function is so great that other civilizations can easily understand it? With it, Barnier blocked the surprise attacks of all the powerful opponents, blocking them from the other side of time and space—but the net was too big, it could stop whales, but it couldn't stop shrimps, and Barnier didn't have time to go Guard against those existences that pose no threat to you at all.

So in the past twenty days, there have been attempts to assassinate almost all the time... Unfortunately, whether it is the illusory assassin who manipulates psionic energy, or the void demon who has evolved to walk in the subspace, they have all made a mistake. matter.

He Barnier, but he was promoted to a legend with extreme strength—how can the power of the rune body be imagined by ordinary people? Even if it is the strength of instinctive counterattack, it cannot be resisted by any existence below the high level of extreme intention. Even if it is a high level of extreme intention, if it does not withdraw in time, it will be wiped out on the spot.

"I can vaguely sense the call from the other side of the lost galaxy... The space-time hub is about to be successfully debugged, and I can go to the front line later to stabilize the situation."

At this time, Barnier could hear a call that seemed to come from a very far away. The old man did not change his expression, but still nodded slightly and stroked his beard: "My work here is almost completed, but there are still some Fine-tuning the system, and waiting for the connection from my hometown."

Although these tasks are complicated and difficult, they are not too much trouble for him. The old mage estimates that these problems can be solved in about two or three days, the time-space hub will be completely perfected, and the teleportation star gate across the galaxy will be opened in Jetrum World. Greatly ease the tension of the situation.

The front line is fine at this time. In the past few months, although those 'knowledge receivers' did not communicate, did not respond, and did not communicate with the expedition fleet at all, they did not forcefully launch an attack, but kept stacking fortresses , building fortresses, the two sides have never formally fought, but instead jointly wiped out many other civilization fleets that attempted to enter the starting point galaxy.

Natural Tutor and others analyzed and found that the knowledge takeover seems to not care about the expeditionary fleet itself at all. They build fortresses on the edge of the galaxy, as if they want to block the two worlds of the galaxy. The fleet of the expeditionary fleet can go out. If you want to come back from the alien galaxy, you will encounter the opponent's attack.

Since there is no suitable means of communication, even psychic energy cannot break through the mental barrier formed by all the fleets of the Knowledge Taker, so the two sides can only remain confused and engage in a mysterious confrontation.

In addition, Barnier also knows that the battle between Joshua and other galactic powerhouses from other worlds has penetrated eleven star fields and destroyed three small and medium-sized worlds. The fleet can observe that Joshua is not at a disadvantage, but the battlefield of the battle is still getting closer to the edge of the galaxy.

In any case, Joshua held back the top combat power of the alien galaxy, ensured the peace of the battlefield and the rear, and he seemed to be playing happily, so that was enough.

Everything is within the expectations of the legendary powerhouses, and it is still a relatively good kind of prediction. You must know that if it is the worst case, then Joshua and the powerhouses from the other world will be on Jetrum Star. Fighting around the domain, others can only barely guarantee the safety of the void base and the space-time hub, and they also have to face the attack of the coalition forces of multiple alien civilizations. They have to persist in that horrible environment for several months, until the portal Open to start the counterattack.

Compared with this kind of situation that makes people feel horrible just thinking about it, everything is really within the acceptable range now.

But to be honest, everything is expected, and sometimes it is not a good thing.

"Boom—"

The dull voice resounded from outside the world, and the psychic roar that reached people's hearts was like a storm, sweeping across the entire star field.

"...Damn it, I knew they would definitely not let it go..."

Barnier raised his head a little depressed. He had already expected that those alien civilizations that sent raiders would never wait for the United Fleet to complete the construction of the space-time hub. The closer the end, their raids would become more and more Violently, the old mage at this time could feel that at the other end of time and space, more than three legendary spiritual masters were holding a ceremony, mixing spiritual energy with infinite divine power, and bombarding the forbidden teleportation area blocked by the time-space hub.

At this time, Barnier had to temporarily put down his work on the Nexus of Time and Space, and went to the void to draw a large array of runes and make a further seal—the old mage did not dare to underestimate the other party, even if only one strong man shuttled through If he came over, he would be able to entangle him, making the blockade impossible to repair, which would lead to a vicious circle, causing more and more powerful people from other worlds to break through the blockade.

At that time, the situation would be dire. I am afraid that only by controlling the self-destruction of the void base designed by Joshua can the situation be saved and the time spent.

boom!

The roar of space-time vibration became louder, Barnier's complexion changed, the opponent's strength was a bit beyond imagination - the time-space magic attainment of this alien civilization is not weak at all! Relying on the space-time hub alone can't stop them at all!

The old mage no longer hesitated, he immediately floated up, ready to go to the void.

And just as the old mage was about to leave Jetrum's world and go to the void, a wall at the core of the Nexus of Time and Space began to deform.

In this way, a metal figure appeared in the place where Barnier was originally. He looked in the direction where the old man left, and then nodded heavily. Next, he took over the work of the other party and continued to quickly carry out adjustments and investigations.

Barnier naturally knew about this.

The power of Steel Element No. 1 is like a weakened version of Joshua, its computing power is extremely powerful, like a biological supercomputer, maybe it doesn’t use runes so neatly, but according to It is not difficult for the auxiliary program left by Barnier to handle the next work. In addition, Joshua and Barnier have been cultivating No. As the entire hub 'Ta Ling' ability.

"But even then... there is no guarantee that he can handle such a complex issue."

Barnier was still a little worried about this substitute who replaced him in an emergency. Even though Joshua had great confidence in the first name, and even said that the other party was essentially the first family formed by replicating himself, it was Because of this, the old mage was worried: "Joshua's replica... oh."

Don’t think about it anymore, the problem is big, and it’s useless to think about it.

"Speaking of it, if I have to say it, as the so-called first family, the first name should be Joshua's..."

In the middle of the flight, Barnier narrowed his eyes and began to think carefully, but soon, he shivered and shook his head to veto his guess.

And then, he didn't have time to think about these issues.

Being dragged by my dad to shovel snow... that's all for now
