Chapter 669 Crisis Reappears and Difficult Choices
The roar within the building grew increasingly deafening, and the ground trembled more violently, as if it might collapse at any moment. Lin Yu and his team instantly went on high alert, intently watching their surroundings, trying to pinpoint the source of the danger. Suddenly, the ancient patterns on the walls began to flicker with an eerie light, followed by streaks of black energy tentacles that emerged from the light and hurtled towards them.
"Watch out!" Lin Yu shouted, quickly raising his weapon and firing an energy beam in an attempt to sever the tentacles. However, the tentacles were exceptionally resilient; the beam only caused them to pause briefly before continuing their relentless advance. The team members opened fire, and for a moment, energy beams crisscrossed within the building, accompanied by a constant barrage of explosions. But the black tentacles were numerous and regenerated at an extremely rapid pace, gradually putting the team in a difficult situation.
While dodging the tentacles' attacks, Ellie anxiously cried out, "The energy of these tentacles is different from anything we've encountered before; conventional attacks simply can't destroy them completely!" Lin Yu frowned, his gaze rapidly scanning the building, trying to find a solution. Just then, he noticed that the light from the Heart of the Universe seemed to have a certain inhibitory effect on the tentacles; their movements slowed down as they approached the Heart of the Universe.
Lin Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he shouted, "Everyone, concentrate your firepower on the area where the tentacles are closest to the Heart of the Universe! Use the energy of the Heart of the Universe to weaken them!" The group immediately adjusted their attack strategy, focusing their firepower on the area between the tentacles and the Heart of the Universe. Illuminated by the light of the Heart of the Universe and under the combined attack of the group, the black tentacles' offensive was finally halted, and their speed of advance noticeably decreased.
However, before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, the top of the building suddenly cracked open, and a huge mechanical monster slowly descended. This monster was as large as a mountain, its entire body covered in thick black armor, its eyes flashing with blood-red light, radiating a chilling aura. It opened its enormous mechanical claws and viciously grabbed at the group.
"Get out of the way!" Lin Yu shouted, quickly leading his team to scatter and take cover. The mechanical claw slammed heavily on the ground, causing a violent tremor and sending stones raining down from inside the building. One member of the mysterious fleet was unable to dodge in time and was struck by a falling stone, collapsing to the ground injured.
Seeing this, Lin Yu immediately rushed over to help his teammates up and place them in a relatively safe corner. At this moment, the mechanical monster launched another attack, spewing out a powerful beam of energy that swept across the entire interior of the building. Lin Yu and the others quickly sought cover, but the energy beam struck the cover, sending sparks flying.
During the fierce battle, Lin Yu discovered several energy nodes on the mechanical monster's armor, which seemed to be its weak points. He quickly informed his teammates, and the group concentrated their firepower on these energy nodes. Under the powerful attack, cracks began to appear in the mechanical monster's armor, and its energy readings began to fluctuate.
However, the mechanical monster was not easily defeated. It roared, its energy surging rapidly, seemingly preparing for an even more powerful attack. Lin Yu, seeing his teammates in danger and the third Cosmic Heart so close at hand, made a difficult decision.
He turned to Ellie and said, "I'll distract the mechanical monsters. You lead the others to seize the Heart of the Universe, then retreat immediately." Upon hearing this, a hint of worry flashed in Ellie's eyes: "No, it's too dangerous. We have to go together!" Lin Yu shook his head firmly: "There's no time. This is the only way right now. Trust me, I'll be fine."
After saying that, Lin Yu ignored Ellie's attempts to stop him and piloted the spaceship towards the mechanical monster, simultaneously launching various energy attacks to successfully attract its attention. The mechanical monster then turned its attack on Lin Yu and launched a relentless pursuit.
With tears in her eyes, Ellie led the rest of the team towards the Heart of the Universe. As they approached, the surrounding black tentacles surged forth once more. Ellie and her teammates fought back fiercely, struggling to advance towards the Heart of the Universe. Finally, Ellie reached out and touched the Heart of the Universe, and a powerful, warm energy instantly coursed through her entire body…
