Chapter 407 The Budding of Emotions, The Void Weaver!
Chapter 407 The Budding of Emotions, The Void Weaver!
These little creatures look like fist-sized octopuses and pose no threat whatsoever.
But in reality, they belong to the Starry Sea Beast race and can survive in the harsh interstellar environment.
Moreover, it is extremely aggressive and frequently invades any starships it encounters.
They don't care about the strength of the Star Server; if they encounter each other, they'll fight.
If you win, you consume the entire life of the star server; if you lose, you die.
At this moment, Ye Xuan's body had reached five meters in height, and he was almost entirely equipped with various weapons.
Once these takoyaki (octopus balls) entered range, a barrage of bullets and lasers began firing wildly.
boom!
boom!
boom!
The once azure sky seemed to be ablaze with fireworks, and these so-called starry sea beasts were utterly powerless against Ye Xuan's weapons.
However, as more and more star-sea beasts invaded, Ye Xuan quickly ran out of bullets.
Noisy!Noisy!
Leaving behind some ranged weapons, Ye Xuan immediately launched his laser sword and charged forward.
He has also honed his close-combat abilities to the highest level currently achievable by mechanical beings.
They fought their way from the east to the west, and then fought their way back from the west.
Neither takoyaki nor any other cosmic sea monster could cross the defense line formed by Ye Xuan alone.
As the battle raged on, Ye Xuan felt a strange emotion gradually rising from the depths of his heart.
From the moment I saw this new world, a vague sense of curiosity arose spontaneously.
The appearance of the Starry Sky Sea Beast gave Ye Xuan another kind of excitement.
"Is this the birth of emotion?"
In the end, Ye Xuan had run out of ammunition, and his laser sword had become dull and lifeless.
Its entire body was damaged and almost beyond repair.
However, not a single Starry Sea Beast could get within 100 meters of the border, thus exceeding his mission expectations.
As a large number of mechanical entities appeared behind him, Ye Xuan was ordered to retreat.
"Well done, 521."
"As expected of the latest generation of mechanical beings, you are all outstanding creations!"
"You single-handedly held off a star-sea beast for twenty minutes! You're truly impressive!"
For some reason, as the mechanical race superiors praised him, a feeling of pride slowly arose in Ye Xuan's heart.
Click!
As if a dream had shattered, all the scenes came to an abrupt end as Ye Xuan returned to the base.
Sure enough, the second memory fragment appeared in Ye Xuan's hand within the memory maze.
Congratulations on obtaining the second memory fragment - the budding of emotions.
The route that follows will, barring any unforeseen circumstances, be the same one that led to the battle just now.
Before that, we can only gradually introduce other memory scenes and draw the corresponding maze maps.
Ye Xuan didn't know if there were any other simpler methods, but he was going to use this one anyway.
The memories of this area are almost entirely filled with battles.
In these memories, not only did the emotions become more and more obvious, Ye Xuan also discovered that people like him began to appear around him.
Through constant battles, his emotions, particularly in the area of friendship, became almost indistinguishable from those of a human.
After the trajectory of the fragments of budding emotions was drawn, Ye Xuan did not continue to experience other memory scenes.
He has now determined the general direction of the situation.
"Here comes the third fragment."
The moment the scene changed, Ye Xuan immediately noticed that his body had grown larger again.
Now, it not only stands 15 meters tall but can also transform, covering almost all combat situations on land, sea, and air.
He is now transforming into a fighter jet, flying rapidly through the air.
"521, we're surrounded!"
Beside him are his comrades-in-arms, number 10085, with whom he has fought countless battles.
Looking around, all that could be seen were ruins.
Countless plumes of smoke rose from the ground, and various shells and lasers fired indiscriminately in the sky, indiscriminately targeting friend or foe.
"Without reinforcements, we have to wipe out all these Void Weavers!"
The entire Mech race on the battlefield had been wiped out, with only him and 10085 remaining alive.
Their mission this time is to protect the humans in this area and kill all the invaders.
No sooner had he finished speaking than a thread of energy pierced through 10085's mechanical body.
"It's over!"
"Use the Blue Light Cannon to destroy my energy source!"
10085 screamed frantically at Ye Xuan, about to lose control as it was pierced by the silk threads.
The Voidweaver is a creature whose entire body is made of translucent silk threads, resembling a giant spider.
Its body can be reassembled at will to adapt to different environments and combat needs; its only weakness is the crystal core in its head.
And energy threads are one of its most powerful abilities.
Life forms invaded by the threads will have their consciousness controlled by the Void Weaver.
When necessary, it can also absorb controlled energy through energy threads to replenish itself.
Although the mechanical race is made entirely of metal, they have actually developed sentience.
Although 10085's combat power is not as strong as Ye Xuan's, it can still cause great damage to Ye Xuan if it gets out of control.
Most importantly, they are teammates who have been together since the very beginning.
Of the feelings that developed between them, the bond of comradeship was the strongest, and 10085 did not want to cause trouble for Ye Xuan.
"Hold on a little longer. Once I kill it, the energy threads will naturally stop working!"
Unfortunately, each of the Void Weavers is above level 270, which is beyond Ye Xuan's current capabilities.
Even now, Ye Xuan can't even touch the Void Weaver's body.
Because another powerful ability of its is to create spatial rifts.
The weapons launched by Ye Xuan were all transported to other spaces by the rift.
From the moment they were sent to this area, it was a mission they were destined to die on.
As for the humans here, the upper echelons of the machine race were merely offering reassurance to certain individuals.
After all, they did send people over, but unfortunately they couldn't withstand the powerful Void Weavers.
"Damn it, why can't I hit anything!"
No matter how hard Ye Xuan tried, he couldn't harm the Void Weaver at all.
This is a monster that he is completely unable to fight at his current level.
For the first time, he felt a sense of powerlessness.
From its inception to the present, 10085 is the only one that has been in sync with it and has stood shoulder to shoulder with it until now.
He didn't want to go back to being alone!
I don't want to go back to those mechanical days!
"Hang in there a little longer, let me think of something..."
boom!
Before Ye Xuan could finish speaking, 10085's body had already been blown to pieces, and the energy spark was being greedily consumed by the Void Weaver.
The fighter jet, which had been flying at high speed, suddenly stopped, and Ye Xuan felt as if his energy spark had stopped burning at that moment.
Is this sadness?
But the next moment, his heightened sense of reason made him instinctively continue to evade the intruder's attacks.
Only the energy spark in his heart seemed to be undergoing some huge change, constantly contracting inward.
After absorbing 10085 completely, the Void Weaver turned its attention to Ye Xuan.
Dodging attacks from other intruders was already extremely difficult, and now that the energy threads had re-entered the fray, Ye Xuan felt an aura of death he had never experienced before.
"Oh no, we're out of energy!"
Ye Xuan, who had been fighting at high intensity for several days, had his energy core completely destroyed at this moment.
A machine race without energy is nothing more than a lump of scrap metal.
The fighter jet, which had been in operation, suddenly stalled and fell helplessly to the ground.
Upon seeing this, the energy threads pierced straight through.
