Chapter 640 The Fog of the Bait Nest and the Guidance of the Remnant Soul of the Star Core (1)
Within the void of the multi-source core, the energy beams of the assault team floated motionless.
Each beam of light carried a heavy weight in its consciousness; the warning text that had just manifested from the dimensional runes weighed heavily on everyone's hearts like a boulder.
The leader of the red light gathered the consciousness of the fifty elite team members and projected the coordinates of the decoy nest again: "Judging from the memory fragments transmitted by the star core consciousness, the purple nebula does indeed have a large amount of siphon energy fluctuations. We all thought it was a feature of the mother nest core before, but now we know that it was just a trap set by the other party."
An elite member of the rapid reaction force (a former high-ranking enforcer) questioned: "Did the Hive anticipate our surprise attack from the very beginning? Did it deliberately send false coordinates through the core consciousness and even issue warnings via runes, just to prevent us from taking action?"
The fused entity's white light surrounded the dimensional runes, carefully sensing the residual energy fluctuations on the rune's surface: "It's not that we dare not act, but that we've fallen into a dilemma of choice."
She transformed the fluctuations she sensed into images and showed them to everyone: "The warnings from the runes were not lying, the bait nest is indeed full of traps, but the breeding of super raiders is not fake either - the mother nest is trying to make us choose between 'waiting to die' and 'actively sending ourselves to our deaths,' and whichever we choose, it will benefit it."
The gatekeeper's black energy collided with the Absolute End Key, emitting a muffled energy sound: "We cannot follow the rhythm of the Mother Nest."
He integrated the previously recorded information about the mother nest with the warning text and constructed an analysis model: "Since the mother nest specifically gave a warning, it means that although the trap of the bait nest is dangerous, it may not be impossible to break; moreover, it did not hide the breeding time of the super predator, which is to take advantage of our anxiety and force us to make a hasty decision."
The guardian's consciousness withdrew from the runes; the four-colored energies, though weary, remained steadfast.
"The gatekeeper is right. The more sophisticated the mother nest's calculations, the more it indicates that it has weaknesses. It is afraid that we will find the real core, so it uses the decoy nest to buy time."
He looked at everyone and continued, "Now we have two directions to advance simultaneously: First, reanalyze the memory fragments of the star core consciousness to find clues about the black singularity; second, send people to infiltrate the outer perimeter of the decoy nest to collect specific information about the traps and determine whether we can use the traps to counter the mother nest."
The leader of the red dots immediately responded: "I will lead ten elite team members to infiltrate the perimeter of the decoy nest for reconnaissance."
He demonstrated the team members' energy attributes: "These team members are good at 'energy concealment' and can hide their own fluctuations in a siphon energy environment, so they will not easily trigger traps."
The Guardian nodded and injected a stream of four-colored energy into the consciousness of the red light leader: "This is the protective energy of the dimensional rune, which can shield the Mother Nest from remote perception. Once danger is encountered, immediately transmit a signal through the energy, and we will respond immediately."
The fusion entity then handed ten portable protective energy packs to the team members: "These energy packs can automatically replenish anti-plunder energy and can last for up to three days in the decoy nest. You must return within three days, otherwise the energy will be depleted by the siphon energy."
The ten elite team members received the energy packs, their consciousness light streams became condensed, and they were ready to depart.
The leader of the red light spots led his team, using spatial folding to speed towards the decoy nest—their figures disappeared into the void, leaving the rest in the core of the multiverse to await the reconnaissance results.
At the same time, the Guardians, the Fusion, and the Gatekeepers began to re-examine the memory fragments of the Star Core consciousness.
Previously, in order to obtain the coordinates of the mother nest, they only focused on content related to the purple nebula. Now, after re-analyzing, they discovered that many overlooked details were hidden in the fragments.
The merged entity slowed down the memory fragments, pointing to a blurry black area in the corner of the screen: "Every time the purple nebula appears here, a faint black ray of light shoots out from the area and connects to the interior of the nebula—at the time we thought it was energy interference, but now it seems that this may be an energy connection between the black singularity and the decoy nest."
The gatekeeper's black energy is injected into the image, attempting to enhance the clarity of the black areas: "The energy interference is too strong, making it impossible to see the specific shape of the area, but we can sense that the light carries the attribute of 'spatial distortion,' which is consistent with the characteristics of chaotic space."
The Guardian's four-colored energy merges with the imagery, constructing a model of the light's trajectory: "From the perspective of light refraction, the black area should be in the 'opposite direction' of the purple nebula, at least ten dimensions away from the decoy nest."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "But this is just speculation. Without specific coordinates, we cannot determine the location of the black singularity—unless we can find more information about the chaotic space, or find another entity that can sense the existence of the black singularity."
Just then, the dimensional rune suddenly trembled slightly, and a faint purple energy appeared on its surface—this was the energy left behind by the ten shadows that had dissipated earlier, which was now beginning to re-condense, forming a blurry remnant of the star core consciousness.
"You... need information about the Black Singularity?"
The voice of the remnant soul of the star core consciousness was weak, yet exceptionally clear. Its energy was connected to the dimensional runes, allowing it to perceive the content of the three people's discussion.
The Guardian immediately stopped model construction and conveyed goodwill to the remnant soul: "Yes, we need to find the true core of the nest to stop the breeding of the super predator."
The energy fluctuations of the remnant soul of the star core's consciousness became agitated: "I know... the location of the black singularity."
Its energy traced a complex spatial trajectory in the runes: "When the Mother Nest was controlling us, it made us send plundered energy crystals to the Black Singularity. I remember the trajectory of the energy transfer - starting from the decoy nest, passing through three loopholes in the laws, we can reach the area where the Black Singularity is located."
The fused entity's white light approached the remnant soul, sensing whether its energy was being controlled by the Mother Nest: "Why are you only telling us now? Why didn't you mention these things when you transmitted the memory fragments earlier?"
The energy of the remnant soul of the star core's consciousness dimmed: "The control mark of the mother hive is still there. I cannot transmit information related to the black singularity. Once it is mentioned, the mother hive will detect it and immediately destroy my consciousness."
It continued to explain: "Now my remnant soul has been temporarily condensed with the help of the dimensional runes, and the control mark of the Mother Nest has completely dissipated, so I can safely pass on the information to you — but my energy can only last for one hour, and I must tell you all the information before it dissipates."
The guardian immediately channeled energy into the remnant soul, attempting to prolong its existence: "You said we would record it carefully."
