Legend of the Embroiderer

Chapter 677 The Prelude to the Joint Attack and the Traces of Ancient Energy (2)

The captain pressed the switch on the siphon energy jammer, releasing pale golden interference energy. The energy network of the mother hive instantly became disordered, unable to cover the entrance smoothly. The ten team members simultaneously released anti-plunder energy, forming an energy wall to block the first wave of devouring energy attacks from the Chaos Devourer.

"Hold on! The Fusion Master will be here soon!"

The captain's voice echoed in the team members' minds. He channeled the energy of the emergency energy crystal into the defensive fortifications, instantly strengthening their protective layer and blocking the subsequent attack launched by the mother hive.

The gatekeeper stood guard beside the Altar of Balance, closely monitoring the situation of the Chaos Stone. Although the siphon energy of the Mother Nest was disrupted, some energy still managed to penetrate the defenses, resonating weakly with the fragments of consciousness. The energy fluctuations of the fragments rose again, and the light of the dual-energy protective layer began to flicker, threatening to be breached at any moment.

"Absolute Termination - Lock!"

The gatekeeper let out a low shout and inserted the Absolute Termination Key into the core node of the defensive array. Black energy erupted instantly, spreading along the protective layer and sealing the siphon energy that had penetrated the defense on the spot. The energy fluctuations of the consciousness fragments also subsided.

However, the Chaos Devourer's attacks grew increasingly fierce, and its devouring energy began to erode the defensive layer of the fortifications. The light of the protective layer dimmed at a visible speed, and the team members' energy consumption rate far exceeded expectations. Three team members had already suffered minor damage to their consciousness light streams.

"We can't hold out much longer!"

The captain's voice was weary. He watched the approaching Chaos Devourer and poured his last bit of energy into the energy wall. "Has the Fusion Master not arrived yet?"

A strong energy vibration suddenly came from the direction of the dark domain of the origin of chaos.

That ancient energy reappeared. This time, it no longer concealed its tracks, but transformed into a huge black phantom, launching an attack on the Chaos Devourer and the Mother Nest!

The energy released by the black phantom carries a strong "purifying" attribute. The moment it touches the siphon energy, the siphon energy dissipates on the spot; the moment it touches the devour energy, the devour energy is forcibly suppressed and can no longer continue to erode the defensive fortifications.

Both the Mother Nest and the Chaos Devourer were stunned, clearly not expecting a third force to suddenly appear, especially one that was targeting them.

"What it is?"

The mother nest's original consciousness was filled with terror. It tried to release siphon energy to fight back, but it was instantly purified by the black phantom's energy and could not get close at all.

The black phantom ignored the Mother Nest and the Chaos Devourer, and slowly moved towards the Balance Altar. Its target was the Chaos Stone!

The gatekeeper immediately stood in front of the Chaos Stone, releasing black energy from the Absolute End Key, and warily stared at the black phantom: "What do you want to do? The Chaos Stone is the core of balance. Once it is destroyed, the entire multidimensional group will collapse!"

The black phantom stopped, and the black energy around it gradually receded, revealing a blurry humanoid outline.

Within the outline, countless pale golden specks of light can be faintly seen. The energy fluctuations of these specks are extremely similar to the original protective energy of the Chaos Guardian Talisman.

"I have no ill intentions."

An ancient and gentle voice came from the phantom, "I am a 'Guardian' among the first generation of Chaos consciousness, and I have been sleeping in the Dark Domain until I sensed that the fragments of the Lord of Chaos's consciousness were about to awaken."

My goal is to help you completely seal the fragments of consciousness and prevent the Lord of Chaos from disrupting the balance between the multidimensional array and the chaotic space once again.

A hint of doubt flashed in the goalkeeper's eyes; he was unsure whether to believe the illusory figure before him.

After all, its energy intensity far exceeds that of ordinary people, and if it harbors malice, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The fused entity arrived with its reserve forces. Upon seeing the black phantom, she immediately channeled her twin source energy into the Balance Key, preparing to respond to any unforeseen circumstances: "You say you're a guardian, what evidence do you have?"

The black phantom did not answer, but instead stretched out its hand, and a pale golden energy surged from its palm, flowing into the Chaos Stone.

The energy fluctuations of the consciousness fragments on the surface of the raw stone dropped instantly, even below the initial safety value, and the light of the dual-energy protective layer also stabilized.

"This is the 'Primordial Guardian Energy,' which can only be mastered by the guardian faction within the Primordial Chaos Consciousness. It can completely suppress the fragments of the Chaos Lord's consciousness without causing any damage to the Chaos Origin Stone."

The phantom's voice was sincere: "The combined attack of the Mother Nest and the Chaos Devourer is just the beginning. The Lord of Chaos has other hidden allies who will soon arrive in the Chaos Space. We must join forces to deal with the crisis to come."

The merged entity and the gatekeeper exchanged a glance, both eyes filled with hesitation.

Believing in the black phantom means entrusting the safety of the Chaos Stone to an unknown entity; disbelieving it means being unable to defend against the impending onslaught of more enemies.

Just then, the consciousness energy of the balance guardian suddenly came: "It did not lie. The energy of the first generation guardian and my energy are from the same source. We were both born to maintain balance."

We can trust it, but we must remain vigilant to prevent any unforeseen events.

The fusion entity took a deep breath and withdrew its twin source energy: "We can cooperate with you, but you must promise us that you will not interfere with the normal operation of the Chaos Stone and the Balance Key, and that all actions must be communicated to us in advance."

The black phantom nodded, its energy receding once more, becoming even gentler: "I agree to your conditions."

Now, we need to deal with the Hive and the Chaos Devourers first. They already know of my existence and will definitely relay the message to the Chaos Lord's other allies. We must act quickly to stop them.

No one objected, and they followed the black phantom towards the Mother Nest and the Chaos Devourer.

Seeing the situation was dire, the Mother Nest and the Chaos Devourer were preparing to retreat, but they were firmly trapped by the first-generation guardian energy released by the black phantom and could not move.

"Your plan has failed. Give up the fight."

The black phantom's voice was majestic, and the first generation of guardian energy began to purify the siphon energy of the mother nest and the devouring energy of the chaos devourer.

However, just as the Mother Nest and the Chaos Devourer were about to be completely purified, an even stronger energy fluctuation suddenly came from the depths of the Chaos Space.

Countless streams of black energy surged out from another direction of the Dark Domain. Each stream of energy exuded an aura similar to that of the Lord of Chaos, clearly indicating that they were allies hidden by the Lord of Chaos!

"Oh no! It's the Chaos Lord's 'Chaos Legion'!"

The black phantom's expression instantly turned serious. "Their strength is ten times that of the Mother Nest and the Chaos Devourers. We simply cannot withstand them!"

The fusion entity looked at the approaching black energy stream, then at the trapped Mother Nest and Chaos Devourer, and was caught in a dilemma.

Should we continue purifying the Hive and the Chaos Devourers, or concentrate our efforts on resisting the Chaos Legion?

A complex light flashed in the eyes of the black phantom, and its hand clenched slightly, as if it were hiding some secret.

The arrival of the Chaos Legion not only brought new crises but also made the identity of the black phantom even more suspicious.

Can the group withstand the attack of the Chaos Legion? What is the true purpose of the black phantom? This battle to maintain balance seems to be developing in an even more unknown direction.
