Chapter 322: Deity’s Artifact and Evil Demon Seal

The corridor was very long, but under the attraction of the song, they gradually reached the end.
In the darkness ahead, a dark red halo lit up. Matthew lit a ball of magic fire, illuminating the outline of that corner.
He saw a door that was as wide as the main door.
However, the door itself had been completely removed by some kind of force. The top of the door frame was fused with a rock-like material. There was a hall that was symmetrical to the front door by the door, but there was nothing in the hall.
The red light and singing came from outside the door.
The two of them slowly approached the door and looked outside.
It was an extremely spacious underground space.
The dark red light shone from below, reflecting layers of halos on the rocks about 20 to 30 meters away from the horizon.
There was a cliff not far from the door.
There was boiling lava seven to eight meters below the cliff.
There was a ten-meter-long suspension bridge above the lava. At the end of the suspension bridge was a platform that stood high above the lava.
The view behind the platform was blocked by the terrain, making it difficult for people to see clearly.
But Matthew was sure that the mesmerizing song came from there.
Matthew gestured to Clegg not to be rash. The two of them stretched their necks along the line of the door and looked at the situation near the lava pool.
Very quickly.
Matthew could vaguely see the remains of some buildings on the east side of the lava pool.
He turned into a raven and looked up from the ceiling. In the end, he only saw two rooms on the wreckage.
According to the distribution of the buildings, more rooms should have been submerged in the lava.
[Hint: You have discovered the Psionic Energy Laboratory of the Antu Empire!]
Matthew realized that the building wreckage was the real laboratory.
But what was going on with this lava pool?
This was the Moonlight Woodlands. Even if it had been hit by the Antu Empire’s starship, it would not have formed such a terrain.
A strong sense of unease welled up in his heart.
However, Clegg appeared a little impatient.
“I will find the source of the song and kill Queen Zerg.
“This Queen Zerg can only be at the fifth rank because once she advances to
Legend, she will transform into the ultimate weapon of the Zither Zerg, the Mother Nest. The mother nest is one of the most terrifying units in the astral space, but with the number of Zergs here, it’s impossible to afford the consumption of a mother nest, so you don’t have to worry too much.
“I’m very experienced in killing Zergs!”
However, Matthew stopped her.
“Wait for me, okay?”
Clegg glared at him with her thick nostrils. She looked like she wanted to save Samantha from her charmed state as soon as possible, but in the face of Matthew’s sincere request, she nodded and agreed.
Matthew took half a step back and knelt on one knee, gently touching the ground with both hands.
[Equalized Perception]
Matthew’s vision instantly changed.
He saw that the energy field in front of him was like a piece of newspaper that had been torn apart and pasted back together. The outline was complete, but the inside was fragmented!
“I see.
“The area inside the door is still within the Moonlight Woodlands. Outside the door is the derivative space formed by the collision between the material world and outer space.
“Many fragments of the outer planes were attracted here by the gravitational force formed by the collision. That’s how the lava pool came about.”
Two seconds later.
Matthew opened his eyes, looking a little tired.
The Moonlight Woodlands was the projection of Assia’s divine kingdom. It was a half-plane attached to the prime material plane.
In a battle in the forest, no matter how bad the situation was, there would always be a home-ground advantage. But once they went outside, it was hard to say!
At the same time.
He also noticed an extremely abnormal energy field in the faintly visible laboratory.
Although the space outside the door was showing signs of cracking, their physical form was still stable. Only a huge gap appeared in the laboratory, both in the Elemental Plane and the Physical Plane.
This made Matthew curious.
He jumped up and looked down a few times. Through a blurry glass wall in the laboratory, Matthew vaguely saw the outline of a cuboid.
It was a huge cement box.
The reason why it was described as huge was that it occupied nearly two-thirds of the space in the centre of the laboratory.
Around the cement box were some operation desks.
“A sealed cement box?!”
Memories from his previous life gushed out.
Matthew’s heart began to beat faster.
As far as he knew, when the Antu Empire dealt with failed experimental organisms, the first step was to pour a large amount of black technology cement into the laboratory.
The effect of this cement was almost as good as magic. Most creatures would not be able to escape this calamity.
Of course, once this mechanism, which seemed to be used to prevent the spread of disasters, was actually used to prevent the leakage of technology, most of the people in the laboratory would not be able to escape.
What was sealed in this cement box?
Violent Zerg?
Could it be that the Zerg did not invade the starship named Dawn by chance but that the people in the empire’s laboratory had released the Zerg? In the end, even the blocking mechanism tailed, and the entire starship turned into a hive, leading to the tragedy of the ship being destroyed and the people dying?
Matthew didn’t know.
He stared at the platform in front of him. The song became more and more sorrowful, like a girl asking for help. Clegg’s patience was reaching its limit.
Matthew suddenly said….
