No Man's Sky: One Hundred Years of Solitude Chapter 20: The Broken God! (Part 2)
The alienation brought about by disputes
However, the demon didn't care what the bugs on the body turned into. He just looked at the white knight floating in the air with reverence, as if he was looking at the god in his mind. As long as it was a question from Li Lin, he would answer it.
"We received an order to drop the Hades into the subspace as a strategic bait to attract the Pale Crusade's assault team. Their battle line is too long, and many people in the so-called Justice League are worried that if the Glowing Heaven breaks through Hell, they will be the next to deal with them. So we have a large number of fresh troops and remaining personnel. Countless people help us make various feints. The assault team and the division team are divided into battles according to the lineup. As long as we attract an assault team, the pressure on the battle line will be reduced. The last layer of Hell is a vast plain, and the Pale Crusade cannot have so many people."
"We, the Hades, were responsible for carrying bait to attract the Pale Expedition assault team. We succeeded, and about twelve assault teams broke into the Hades. We followed the agreement and fought and retreated, but due to structural problems, they detonated the bridge and the main road, and our ambush was swallowed by the subspace. We had no choice but to fight and retreat. As a large warship, the Hades has internal isolation space and fault zones. We are now deploying the third sequence defense, intending to resist the assault team outside the power reactor. But the effect is not great, their artifacts have the function of space anchors, which can forcibly gather people."
"Now the first residential area and the first to seventeenth gun groups have all fallen. I am heading to the third isolation point to break the gate. If possible, I can activate the explosive split to exile the entire Holy Light Expeditionary Force out of the warp. But now it is probably impossible, because I have been captured by you, my lord. I have no way to put down the isolation belt again."
"Yeah?"
Are you still fighting?
After taking a look at the ripples that were glowing with various lights, Li Lin tilted his head and thought for a moment.
"Then do you know what your bait is?"
"I don't know. I'm not high enough level."
"Too……"
Then he put the demon, which was covered with maggots but seemed healthier for some reason , aside and observed it once again.
Then, he once again had an inexplicable feeling, just like fishing, Li Lin easily pulled out an inexplicable figure from a lighter but wider ripple.
He looked like a panicked man. He was wearing a familiar style of Plague Butcher, and he screamed in surprise at Li Lin who had dragged him out of history. Then he turned his head and saw the demon in a terrifying state of dissolution. He screamed and then twitched.
Maybe he has experienced some terrible scene. After all, a person who has awakened magic power is unlikely to be so fragile.
However, looking at the gray lines spreading on his body, Li Lin thought about it and tried to throw this man, who must be the Plague Butcher, back into the original ripples.
However, surprisingly, the association actually swallowed the unconscious man. It was like being thrown into the water, causing ripples in the space-time senses, and then returning to calm, even the initial ripples disappeared.
"Is it a one-time thing?"
Li Lin squinted his eyes and looked at the ripples around him, and began to test them one by one.
Sometimes it was a burning demon-style hell-severing sword, sometimes it was the corpses of some monsters and ship servants, but most of the time it was an attack, such as a sword flash, a curse, or a vicious curse.
From time to time, energy filled with various colors would burst out from the ripples, launching a shocking attack on the deck, and then disappearing into thin air again as if time had flown backwards. The power left over from that expedition was too terrifying. The ordinary soldiers were elite magic awakeners, and the team leader had completely surpassed the magic awakening class and reached another level. Li Lin was almost hacked to death several times, but fortunately he recovered quickly and his health bar was long, so he managed to recover.
And during this process, Jeanna did not move at all. She just watched Li Lin pull out one strange thing after another from the air, clapping her hands from time to time to express her amazement or some other emotion.
To be honest, Li Lin is still a little worried about this Void Saint whose origins are unknown, especially after arriving at the Hades.
As the subspace lost its sense of time, the curses and marks of corruption that once covered the Hades were either burned away by the Holy Flame or wiped away by some inexplicable force in the void. The inexplicable voice in the void had been attracting Li Lin's attention, forcing him to walk deeper into the ship, which greatly interfered with his actions.
To be honest, this was the first time that Li Lin had such a terrible experience in a mission. He felt as if his hands and feet were tied up. Without Sally's help, no other experience or judgment, and no common sense of physics, Li Lin felt helpless.
The most important thing is that in this context of confusing time and space, it is disgusting enough just to sort out the timeline and find clues.
Don’t accept any tasks related to time in the future. It’s too disgusting.
Looking at the spreading ripples, Li Lin thought for a moment, then turned to Jeanna who was jumping around and asked.
"Jeanne, can you see those ripples?"
"Eh? Sure."
"As expected of the Void Saint..."
I'm a little concerned, but forget it. I feel like I understand the truth on both sides.
After estimating the size of the ripples and the time period they covered, Li Lin quickly figured out the pattern behind it, but some issues were still unresolved.
Theoretically, this situation would not occur on such a low-level map, and the information received was related to the true God. To be honest, is this really a quest line that can be triggered at my level? Although the danger is not great, it feels like a lot of information cannot be detected.
And this trap is also very annoying.
After taking a look at the blade spreading out from the void, instantly cutting off the deck and then healing again, Li Lin picked up his arm that had fallen to the ground after being scratched, expressionlessly, put it back on his shoulder, and greeted the devil.
"Go take me to the lounge, I'll see if there are any other traces."
