Chapter 466: Abyssal Claw, the Destruction of Purple Thistle Mountain
Chapter 466: Abyssal Claw, the Destruction of Purple Thistle Mountain
Chen Mo was sitting in the laboratory, carefully storing the genetically improved grain seeds. Although the territory now had resource buildings and was not lacking in food, it was still necessary to be prepared for any eventuality. At least, if something were to happen in the future, there would be sufficient means to cope.
A person without long-term planning will inevitably face immediate problems. As a lord, one cannot just focus on the present but must also consider the future.
The territory was currently thriving. Given enough time, it would eventually restore the former glory of the Gen Da Ya civilization.
After storing all the data and samples properly, the task was completed. The laboratory would be temporarily sealed, mainly because conducting experiments was extremely resource-intensive. If not for the urgent need, there would have been no need to activate the laboratory project, as the legacy of the Gen Da Ya civilization was already sufficient for their use.
Just as he was about to leave the laboratory, he suddenly felt a sense of unease. This was a professional talent from one of his occupations, allowing him to perceive life and death crises to some extent, though it was inconsistent and rarely effective.
Before he could react, a jet-black beam of light pierced through the darkness, its overwhelming energy making his hair stand on end.
"What's going on!"
His voice was sharp and completely incredulous, but fortunately, the beam did not fully descend.
An intangible mental storm rapidly erupted from the mental network. In the darkness, a massive and indistinct figure stood before them, blocking the jet-black beam.
" Lord, the Endless Abyss."
"This is impossible!"
Chen Mo gritted his teeth, thinking that the so-called Lord was merely a somewhat powerful but backward native, greedy and short-sighted. How could such a primitive being possess such advanced energy weapons?
His mind frantically searched for similar weapons in the Gen Da Ya civilization, but found nothing.
"Even if it's not a legacy of the Gen Da Ya civilization, this powerful attack must be some kind of powerful one-time item. Otherwise, it would be impossible to use it." He still refused to admit that a descendant of the noble Gen Da Ya civilization could be frightened by a backward native.
As a member of a higher civilization, he had his pride.
"Thank goodness for the Mother Goddess's protection, otherwise, this would have been disastrous." Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief. Although the attack was fierce, it was just a native, and compared to the Gen Da Ya civilization, the difference was like night and day.
However, he had barely had a moment to celebrate when he felt another chilling presence descending.
The entire sky was torn apart, and a twisted, massive, chaotic claw emerged, reaching out to the Gen Da Ya Mother Goddess who was protecting the territory.
As the claw moved, the space around it became extremely distorted, and pollution spread rapidly.
If not for the mental cradle field formed by the Gen Da Ya Mother Goddess, all the Triclops or humans would have been instantly corrupted into terrifying monsters upon the first sight.
This was a nameless corruption of the world, usually hidden and distant, but now it had emerged.
"What is that thing? How can this world possibly have such a terrifying existence!!!" Chen Mo was under immense mental pressure. The Gen Da Ya Mother Goddess had indeed blocked the pollution, but could not completely shield the oppressive aura emanating from the claw.
The claw descended, and the entire Purple Thistle Mountain territory, along with an unknown area around it, was suppressed.
Other areas without the protection of the Gen Da Ya Mother Goddess were immediately reduced to ruins, with death rising in an instant.
The Gen Da Ya Mother Goddess used her divine power to block the claw.
"Got you~"
A voice filled with malice spread throughout the world.
All the people, subconsciously connected through a vast network, isolated the malicious words, otherwise, even if their bodies did not mutate, their minds would inevitably drift into madness.
"The true target of this existence is the Mother Goddess. What should we do? The Mother Goddess is clearly no match for this being." Chen Mo trembled uncontrollably in the face of the terrifying aura emanating from the claw.
Not only him, but everyone in the territory was the same. Under the oppressive aura, they could not even move, and some even lost consciousness on the spot, which was considered fortunate.
"I have to think of a way, I don’t want to die, I don’t want to die," Chen Mo muttered to himself.
The entire mental network had already collapsed, either due to the overwhelming pressure of the Abyssal Claw or because of the Gen Da Ya Mother Goddess's resource drain. In any case, they had become a burden to the Mother Goddess. If the mental network were at its peak, the Mother Goddess would have had much more power.
The already indistinct form of the Gen Da Ya Mother Goddess became even more blurred, as if she might dissipate at any moment.
"I understand now, the Cradle Plan was aimed at this terrifying existence. It wasn’t recorded because once we knew about it, the enemy would turn their attention to us."
"Of course, that’s why the civilization was kept backward and ignorant, and the mental manifest genes were hidden. The enemy’s target is the Mother Goddess, and they created the divine project to protect her."
In the chaos, Chen Mo pieced together many things, directly attributing the Abyssal Claw to the true culprit behind the fall of the Gen Da Ya civilization and deducing the target of the Cradle Plan.
But thinking about these things now was completely useless.
The Abyssal Claw snatched the entire Gen Da Ya Mother Goddess and carried her back into the sky.
But that wasn’t the most critical issue. The most critical issue was that Chen Mo felt something inside his body being slowly drained away as the Mother Goddess was taken further away.
By the time he realized what was happening, he saw a fine, thread-like network flowing out of his body like a stream of water.
The other end of these threads was connected to the captured Gen Da Ya Mother Goddess.
'Mental network!'
In that instant, he naturally understood what was happening.
He hurriedly got up to look and saw a large number of threads flying up to the sky along with the Mother Goddess, like a giant spider web hanging down, with the Mother Goddess at the center.
'What will happen if we lose the mental network?' This question popped into his mind.
Fortunately, he didn’t have to wonder for long, as the answer came immediately after the Abyssal Claw took the Mother Goddess and the entire mental network away.
His third eye, which had been on his forehead, withered in an instant, like a pile of dead neural structures.
The mental power completely dissipated, leaving him feeling empty and hollow.
A void-like presence continuously eroded their spirits.
"Am I saved?"
The void could be dealt with later; the most important thing was that he had survived. Although he had lost the protection of the Gen Da Ya Mother Goddess, using this trump card to save the entire territory was a significant good deed.
"Only the Triclops bloodline is ruined, and my personality, etc., have returned?" Chen Mo’s face was full of surprise.
If the Triclops·Chen Mo had been in control before, now, due to the loss of the Mother Goddess, the Lord·Chen Mo, who had been a secondary fusion, once again took the lead and reasserted his dominance.
"Ha ha ha~ No wonder I gradually returned from just now." Chen Mo’s tone was cheerful. As the Mother Goddess’s power waned and the mental network failed, a newly formed blank personality couldn’t possibly match years of self-awareness.
"However, I still can’t reveal myself, or there will be problems with all the 100 loyalty heroes." Chen Mo quickly calmed down.
This was a huge gain for him.
Not only had he reclaimed his power, but he had also eliminated a hidden danger.
"Unfortunately, the S-grade bloodline is ruined." This was the only thing that made Chen Mo a bit heartbroken.
But he didn’t have long to feel happy, as the indescribable sense of dread erupted again.
Looking up at the sky, the originally dark world was suddenly bathed in daylight.
"I—"
Before he could finish, the entire territory turned into nothingness. This time, there was no Gen Da Ya Mother Goddess to protect him from the attack.
Even to the very end, he never understood how or why he died.
After the daylight, everything returned to the dark silence, with only the deep, bottomless pit where the Purple Thistle Mountain territory once stood proving that everything that happened was not an illusion.
