Chapter 481 Dying Silently
"Dissolve a handful of salt in a bucket of water, then add sand and stones to the water. If you want to purify this handful of salt again, you need to sift out the sand and stones first, and then distill it."

Li Dawei gently swirled his teacup, a smile playing on his lips and a gentle curve in his eyes: "It's the same on our planet Earth. Not every human on Earth is our partner."

Qiu Xiaomei and Qiu Laoda paused, vaguely understanding Li Dawei's meaning.

Qiu Xiaomei pursed her lips and asked softly, "What will happen to the sand and stones that were sifted out?"

“Go where they were supposed to be.”

Old Qiu looked at Little Qiu, then at Li Dawei, his throat itching.

He licked his dry lips, his voice hoarse: "So, where are we now?"

"Distillation." Li Dawei stood up, put his hands behind his back, and looked up at the sky. "It'll be soon, very soon."

……

In the thick darkness unseen by them, on the Covenant command ship, Gray stared blankly at the empty research bay.

Originally, it contained Qiu Xiaomei, who was torn to pieces. However, after the darkness descended, her body gradually became transparent and eventually turned into a wisp of air.

"It's amazing."

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have doubted that it was a dream."

"Grey, did you see that? Qiu Xiaomei's disappearance was like a model being erased by a programmer. It's unbelievable."

"A mysterious force ignored our starship's defenses and all kinds of monitoring, and simply made Qiu Xiaomei disappear!"

"Not only that, but the soldiers of the Blue Star Space Fleet who sacrificed their lives also vanished into the darkness!"

The Covenant researchers responsible for studying this footage were so excited that their bodies shone with a rainbow of light.

As darkness enveloped the Covenant fleet, what followed was like a dream. They watched as transparent figures, oblivious to the thick darkness, were sucked into the blue planet.

He couldn't see those people clearly either; their facial features were only outlined in human form. But he was certain that this was an energy form that had never been recorded in any scientific database!
These transparent figures moved freely in the thick darkness, but their behavior was very stiff, suggesting they lacked independent consciousness.

What exactly are they?
Why do they only become visible in dense darkness? Why did so many humans die in the Blue Star Trial Grounds, yet not a single transparent figure appeared?

"Grey, Blue Star really holds a huge secret. My God, I'm so excited! Both the dense darkness and the transparent human figures are composed of an unprecedented high concentration of energy! We must figure out what they are! The Spike Star civilization and the Zerg have been frantically buying carbon-based humanoid beings, it must be for this."

Gray slowly turned his head, looked at his companions who didn't understand the seriousness of the situation, and said indifferently, "It's too late."

Everyone was stunned. What was too late?
The Covenant will definitely come to their rescue.

On an Orcish Empire warship not far from the Covenant command line, Brutus beat Izanami half to death.

"You bastard! You're going to kill us!"

Brutus tried various methods to break through this mysterious darkness, but all failed.

Unable to shoot, unable to move, unable to communicate, unable to see.

This darkness defied many laws of physics, like a sudden hole in the curtain of the universe, slowly enveloping the newly built orcish empire.

If it were merely a matter of wrapping him up, it wouldn't be enough to drive Brutus to despair.

The crucial point is that this darkness seems to have come alive, engulfing the entire new ship.

The pulsating bioluminescence on the surface of the Orc Empire's starship resembled extinguished embers.

No one could stop the darkness's engulfing process. The orc soldiers roared as they charged forward, instantly turning into chocolate statues that melted and flowed in the intense heat, further strengthening the power of darkness.

There was no explosion, no disintegration; in absolute silence, the magnificent structure of steel and flesh began to silently turn into gray dust from its edges.

The hanging skull trophies, the welded warship armor, all the structures symbolizing violence and conquest, all vanished completely under the erosion of darkness, as if their existence had been evenly erased by an invisible hand.

Brutus and Izanami were hiding in the core of the Orc Empire's starship.

The enormous starship, larger than a city, was now reduced to a space of less than 20 square meters, enveloped in darkness.

Izanami's long black hair enveloped her in a black cocoon, preventing Brutus from injuring her vital organs no matter how hard he punched and kicked her.

Izanami was filled with regret.

One should never be too greedy. One act of greed can lead to eternal destruction.

"Brutus, you need to find a way to contact the Covenant Core right now! We're about to be eaten!"

Darkness seeped in slowly along the cracks, spreading out little by little.

Brutus shrank back, his eyes filled with confusion.

He didn't understand how things had turned out this way.
Blue Star is merely a Type 0.7 civilization; their primary civilization is carbon-based.

Where does this damned, dark energy come from?
In the universe, even the Zerg, who can eat anything, can't eat this dark energy!
Brutus recalled the boastful words he had uttered in Parliament, feeling as if it had happened in a past life.

Tick ​​tock!

A drop of dark energy, like a water droplet, dripped from the ceiling onto Brutus's shoulder.

Instantly, Brutus felt a chill run down his spine, and his skin immediately solidified into the strongest armor.

But this tiny drop of dark energy, just as it ignored the indestructible hull of the Orc Empire's starship, ignored the physical barriers he had constructed, and effortlessly merged into his body.

hiss.

Brutus was deathly pale.

As one of the 12 councilors of the Orc Empire, he has refined the "qi" of the Orc Empire into every cell, every drop of blood, and every muscle of his body.

He should have been the strongest warrior, charging forward like a tank.

However, the air that he had spent tens of thousands of years blowing into his body flowed out like a tap that had been turned on.

In just three seconds, Brutus' height shrank to 1.8 meters and his body width halved.

The shrinking process continued, causing the curled-up Izanami to scream repeatedly in terror.

"Aaaaaah! Get away from me!"

"No! Spare me! Great Lord, revered Lord, I am willing to offer my soul and everything to become your faithful servant. If you tell me to go east, I will never go west; if you tell me to lay chickens, I will never lay ducks. Please, spare me! If you spare me, I can take you to find my brother, my descendants! They also possess great power..."

Izanami's pleas for mercy, along with her long hair that had melted into a pool of black water, vanished completely.

The entire Martian region was silent, with not a single starship in sight.
