Chapter 952
952 A trick within a trick within a trick
Graves had wandered the universe for decades and had come into contact with countless alien races. Other than link, he was the only other person in the entire Umbrella Foundation who knew a thing or two about the nether system.
Link instructed graves to teach them the basics. he would fill in the gaps that graves didn’t mention.
“The Nether Realm Galaxy is an extremely peculiar place. Ordinary laws don’t really apply here. This was a magical place, and the most unique thing about it was the netherworld River that ran through the entire Galaxy. The netherworld River would guide the dead souls of other galaxies to this place, and the soul energy would be judged here.
if the soul was determined to be kind, then they would get a chance to be reborn. if they are determined to be evil souls, then this place is like hell. the energy of the evil souls will be slowly extracted and used to nourish this special galaxy.”
“It’ll be easier to understand if I put it in another way. This place was like hell in the universe, used to guide and judge the dead souls. Thus, the Nether Realm Galaxy’s natives are those kind souls that were reborn and given birth to existences. They have their own unique social system and methods.”
After graves ‘explanation, everyone had a basic understanding of the nether system.
“Does it mean that the fruit nourished by evil spirits will taste better?” Helen mumbled to herself.
“You’ll have to try it out for yourself,” link replied, smiling.
Helen couldn’t help but show a disdainful expression.
Eating food that had been nourished by the soul was unacceptable to someone who had grown up with a normal human education.
To humans, the soul was precious and sacred. it was not very acceptable to use souls as nourishment.
Then link added some information about the nether system.
“The structure of the Nether Realm Galaxy is unique. It’s like a needle and thread used to sew clothes, appearing on many levels. Not only the Karl Super Galaxy cluster, but also the souls of the wider dimension would be guided here, which could be said to hold a pivotal position.
the next thing was the energy flow. after leaving the nether realm, the energy flow would spread to the entire universe in an invisible way, connecting every star system, so that the souls in the star system could be successfully guided here. So if we look at it from a different perspective, it means that there’s a path that connects the Nether Realm Galaxy to other galaxies.”
Link’s words were to give everyone some inspiration and Foundation.
In his previous life, as the level of the players ‘organizations and civilizations increased, the Alliance had modified the nether system in order to reach the various planets quickly and fight against Emperor Paul’s Zerg Army. They opened teleportation gates that led to various places and made it their base camp.
as expected, helen had an idea after link finished speaking.
“If souls can be drawn to the Nether Realm Galaxy through these invisible threads, then can living people also use this passage to quickly reach the goal of other galaxies?”
“This idea is very creative. But to do that, you need to have a deep understanding of the energy system of the nether Galaxy. You need to make sure that the energy doesn’t reject a living person.”
Link knew that Helen’s current knowledge wasn’t enough to solve this problem. However, as the future mother Goddess of machines, link believed that Helen’s potential was no less than the others.
In his previous life, Helen’s storyline would eventually develop into the Mother Goddess of machinery, which everyone feared.
with link’s participation in this life, if she did not do as well as she did in her previous life, wouldn’t it mean that link’s existence was a burden to her?
Link ordered the mech fortress to head towards the largest planet in the nether system.
The stars of the Nether Realm Galaxy were different from the ones they had seen before.
the heat emitted by a normal star was enough to illuminate the entire galaxy. it brought life and vitality to this place.
however, the stars of the nether realm star system were covered in a dark blue-green soul. The surface of the star was surrounded by black matter, and the whole scene was dark and terrifying.
A strong sense of oppression came instantly!
It was hard to imagine that such a Galaxy actually had universe-level food.
a day later, the mechanical fortress arrived at the largest planet in the nether system.
The situation of the nether star system was special. It did not have a modern port like the starport. Moreover, this was a special star system of a civilization. All the creatures of this civilization were made of souls, so they naturally did not have any physical style buildings.
As the mechanical fortress approached, the thick clouds outside the planet gradually formed a vortex, revealing the inside. It was like a funnel that was going to suck in the mechanical fortress.
The vortex gradually extended from the planet and wrapped around the mechanical fortress.
Through the center of the vortex, everyone could see the majestic scene of the Nether Realm.
A huge nether underground Palace was emitting a green light. Thousands of souls were floating in from all directions and gathering in the nether underground Palace. The entire underground Palace was a bit similar to Gothic architecture. The sharp tips and slender shapes gave people a strong sense of oppression.
The entire nether underground Palace was suspended in mid-air, and fluorescent green liquid was flowing down from all directions. It looked like a waterfall.
Below the nether underground Palace was a black fog Whirlpool with a light pillar connected to it.
The most important energy belt of the entire Nether Realm Galaxy, after the energy entered the clouds outside the planet, it seemed to disappear.
However, upon closer inspection, one would discover that this energy had been combed through the clouds and was now everywhere.
Countless souls appeared through the clouds and were guided to the underground palace of the Nether Realm.
The strange and Grand scene caused everyone to be stunned.
such a strange style was unprecedented, and this place didn’t look like a planet at all.
Helen leaned on the porthole and exclaimed, ” I didn’t expect a planet with such a structure to exist.
For some reason, Fu was even more excited. He felt an indescribable sense of pride when he saw these souls being guided.
In the legends of the AFU tribe, the soul of a person would be led to a place after death, where they would be judged according to their actions before death. good people could live a satisfactory life, but evil people had to pay the price for what they had done before they died.
as a coffin carrier who was close to the soul, fu’s father had said that there was another name for him, and that was the soul ferryman.
Previously, Fu had thought that these things were just for him to make himself look good, but he had never thought that all of this actually existed.
They didn’t expect their family business to be gathered here.
Seeing countless souls being led here, Fu felt proud. There must be some souls among them that their family had once guided!
On the wasteland planet, many people regarded this kind of coffin carrying job as the lowest job.
But here, Fu saw the important contribution and significance of the family’s work to the universe’s life cycle.
This was not a lowly job, but a sacred one!
the entire nether underground palace was extremely huge.
when the mechanical fortress entered the planet and gradually approached the nether underground palace, one could finally feel its vastness.
Before this, because of the lack of objects to compare with, although the entire underground Palace could be seen from the sky, the specific size could not be measured.
When the mechanical fortress landed on the platform according to the instructions of the underground palace, everyone was once again stunned by the scene in front of them.
The entire underground Palace was not real.
The energy in the underground palace was all spiritual energy. Link and Abaddon were especially sensitive to this kind of power.
Abaddon contained life energy, shadow energy, and dark energy.
After being synthesized, link had gained the ability to control the undead, so he could clearly feel how terrifying the underground palace was.
The two of them looked at each other, their faces filled with surprise.
The energy here was the same as the soul energy that entered the Nether Realm.
Therefore, the answer was obvious-
the entire nether underground palace originated from the souls of the dead and was built with soul energy. To be able to build such a majestic and majestic underground Palace of the Nether Realm, the energy consumption was definitely an astronomical figure.
After the mechanical fortress came to a stop, a voice was transmitted into the interior.
“It’s been a long time since a living person has visited this place. You’ve all come from far away, what can I do for you?” The voice was polite and unhurried, like a spring breeze.
The others were even more surprised, especially Helen, who looked as if she had become a ghost. It should be known that she had already upgraded the mechanical fortress several times. Whether it was from the perspective of data security or invasion, a lot of effort had been put in to ensure the safety of the mechanical fortress.
But now, this voice had appeared out of thin air and completely bypassed the various defenses of the mechanical fortress. Wasn’t this surprising?
In addition to her, Troy and Satoko were also in the mechanical fortress.
Even the two of them didn’t notice anything unusual, which showed how powerful the nether Galaxy was.
Link’s expression did not change. He said,”The dead can’t help the living in anything. We’ve come to your place in search of something that was once lost. These things are very important to the entire Karl Supergalaxy cluster.”
The soul energy spoke again,’life and death are normal reincarnations. if you break it by force, it will affect the balance of the laws.”
it’s not like i’m forcing myself to do my best and leaving it up to fate. since i’ve found this clue, i naturally can’t let it go and watch the entire galaxy be destroyed.
The soul energy wanted to say more, but seeing that link knew their rules so well, it knew that he had already made up his mind.
“in that case, please go ahead. Life and death are different paths. As long as you don’t change the rules of the Nether Realm, this place will be open to you.”
the other officers were all confused.
The mysterious voice and link seemed to have reached an agreement and tacit understanding after a short conversation.
As onlookers, they didn’t know anything.
They were simply watching the show, dumbfounded.
link turned around to look at the stunned crowd and explained,”That voice just now was the master of the Nether Realm … The head Warden. He has already acquiesced to our actions in the Nether Realm. Troy, you’ll be in charge of passing down the message. All members of the umbrella Foundation who are out can communicate with the souls of the netherworld normally, but no harassment is allowed. Anyone who violates this rule will be kicked out of the umbrella Foundation and left here alone.”
Troy didn’t dare to delay in the face of such a strict order. He knew the importance of this mission, and he couldn’t afford to make any mistakes.
don’t worry, President. I’ll definitely pass on your instructions.
Link only knew that Chen’s sealed artifact of the five sages was found in the Nether Realm. He didn’t know the exact mission or location.
However, since he had already made it clear to the warden that they would not interfere with each other’s Affairs, link had plenty of time and ways to find clues.
“It’s a once in a thousand years opportunity to come to the Nether Realm. Our target is the information on Tempest flame Chen, but we can’t miss the spectacular view here. So, in order to not leave any regrets, all members of the umbrella Foundation will be participating in this mission. We will be able to come into close contact with the Nether Realm.”
as a ” messenger, ” troy could clearly convey link’s mission.
Very soon, Link’s mission of summoning all members of the umbrella Foundation was completed with Troy’s help.
This mission was to find one of the five sages, Tempest flame Chen. It was rumored that his spirit had arrived here, visited the most special places of food in the universe, and spent the last of his time here. The umbrella Foundation would give a special reward for finding traces of his existence or the sealed artifacts of the five sages.
The players of the mechanical fortress were still brooding over the fact that the rewards from the previous mission of the five sages had been obtained by killing the true prophet.
After killing true prophet, he obtained a set of custom-made equipment.
This set of custom-made equipment was completely tailored for him.
A mission AI navigation system that could directly connect to the database of the mechanical fortress could automatically analyze and optimize the best path according to the mission received. The estimated time of completion would also be adjusted according to the improvement of one’s strength.
Apart from that, when the equipment was put together, it could stimulate the acupuncture points, eliminate fatigue, and stimulate one’s potential.
When Helen and Max were forging, they had taken into account the “severe liver cirrhosis” attribute of the true prophet. Therefore, relieving fatigue and increasing mission efficiency were very important points in equipment. In addition, there was also an integrated space backpack in the armor’s carry-on backpack. However, this spatial backpack was more reasonable, and it also had a special capsule space.
The capsule’s space could be enlarged in proportion.
After zooming in, it was a small camp.
The camp could be used for work and rest. With just a press of a button, this campsite that took up 20 square meters could be shrunk to the size of a palm.
With the precedent of killing a true prophet, the players were even more eager for this mission of the five sages. They had been looking forward to it for a long time!
as the orders and quests were announced, the players swarmed into the nether realm.
Link glanced at a certain spot in the rest area of the mechanical fortress and muttered to himself, ” “It’s rare to come to the Nether Realm, how can I miss it.”
The place where Link’s gaze stopped at was enshrouded in thick gray fog.
