Chapter 597 The Final Request, A Return to Familiar Places

The oppressive feeling of that being, whose name they didn't even know, reached its peak at this moment. Although they didn't know which level of existence Eternal Silence belonged to among the great beings, Wang Yu and Ling Qi had never seen the curtain of Eternal Silence forcibly torn open from beginning to end, but now this curtain that had never been torn open was broken.

"Converts," Lingqi chose to call the other party, whose actions were aimed at reclaiming all existences that had separated from his own body. Everything in Yuancheng seemed to be a product directly created by the other party.

As for the residents of the safe zone, they are derivatives of Yuan City. Since Yuan City is considered a place of converts, the safe zone is also considered part of the other party. Once touched, they will be taken back by the other party without any ability to resist.

"Why is it so powerful? It is unlike any great being we have ever seen before. Absolutely no great being would completely split itself into this state. Even the Origin Sea is just a matter of our misunderstanding of it. In essence, it is still a great being that exists in this world."

"But converts are different. They truly split themselves off, becoming numerous individual entities that operate in this world. Perhaps this is what makes them so powerful, far more terrifying than any great being I have ever encountered."

The situation was extremely dire. The help from Eternal Silence could not provide any temporary protection for the people of Machine Soul Company. The protection provided to them was forcibly breached in a very short time. And Zero Seven knew very well that Eternal Silence probably couldn't help them much more.

Ultimately, the fact that Eternal Silence was able to respond to Zero Seven's request and open a rift leading to the realm behind the curtain of Eternal Silence to swallow them was already astonishing enough.

Are we really expecting Eternal Silence to stand up for them and fight against the converts? Putting aside whether Eternal Silence can defeat them, we have to ask, "Why should they?" Just for these guys who are as insignificant as ants compared to the great beings?

"..."

"Please, do me one last favor."

Lingqi's thoughts were racing. Seemingly influenced by the environment behind the curtain of eternal silence, the "Converts" were moving much slower than when they were expanding the territory of Yuancheng. Therefore, at the moment the "Converts" appeared, the people of Machine Soul Company were not instantly swallowed up by the "Converts".

At this moment, Zero Seven made another request to Eternal Silence, which was also her last request. It was not a request for Eternal Silence to help them fight against the converts or to provide more protection. Zero Seven's request was to ask Eternal Silence to take them through the realm behind the veil to a place that Zero Seven wanted to reach.

Whether it was Zero Seven's imagination or not, Eternal Silence hesitated for a moment after receiving the request, but ultimately granted Zero Seven's request.

Behind the curtain of eternal silence, an astonishing spatial fluctuation is being generated. The abnormal pollution of eternal silence is distorting the space behind the curtain. This domain, which is almost entirely theirs, is also being used by them.

Under these circumstances, it is not difficult to use the space behind the Eternal Silence curtain to perform spatial transfers to the corresponding real-world realm, even to places extremely far away. The Eternal Silence curtain can still achieve this.

"Snap!"

Even if Lingqi's request is granted, it will still take some time, and time is the most scarce resource for the current Machine Soul Company. The sound of something breaking appeared in Lingqi's perception. The converts were breaking through the barriers of this space and approaching the Machine Soul Company at a speed that seemed slow but was actually fast. The boundary of their power was about to touch the members of the Machine Soul Company almost immediately.

"Whoosh!"

At that very moment, a large swarm of bio-mechanical insectoids suddenly burst forth from the Machine Soul Company's ranks, hurtling towards the approaching converts. Their deep connection with Wang Yu and Ling Qi allowed the bio-mechanical insectoids to perceive things unknown to other Machine Soul Company members; the existence of the converts was now much clearer to them.

The swarm leaders of the bio-mechanical swarm were well aware of the situation facing Machine Soul Corporation. They were extremely short of time, and after almost no hesitation, the swarm leaders made their decision.

They separated from the Machine Soul Company's forces and rushed directly towards the direction from which the converts were approaching. The opposing directions of the two teams created two batches of things that needed to be retrieved, which caused the converts to slightly bend the direction of their power extension to the other side.

Even the bio-mechanical swarm of soldiers, which were trying their best to accelerate, were still much slower than their opponents. Therefore, almost the moment they made this decision and moved in the opposite direction, the power of the converts touched these bio-mechanical swarm of soldiers, and in an instant, they were recycled back into the converts' bodies.

The actions of the bio-mechanical swarm only bought them a very short time, and almost had no impact on the actions of the converts. However, the fact that they slightly changed the direction of their power extension was still objectively true. So no matter how short it was, the actions of the bio-mechanical swarm did buy them some time.

"Bang!"

Immediately following the action of the bio-mechanical swarm, or rather, they began their actions simultaneously, only the swarm appeared to move faster. A sudden, deafening explosion erupted within the Machine Soul Company's ranks, and a powerful shockwave hurled a massive object toward the location of the converts.

This object is the containment facility built within the Machine Soul Corporation, a massive, integrated containment building. The building itself possesses extremely strong integrity and exceptional strength. It is precisely because of this that the containment facility was able to directly blast this containment facility towards the direction of the converts using an impact explosion.

"Boom!"

Soon, the containment facility that had been blown away collided with the power of the converts in mid-air. When the two collided, the containment facility suddenly exploded, revealing the figures of many containment members. Their figures exploded in the process, but they did not become part of the converts and merge with them. Instead, they were completely crushed.

Yes, after all, the members of the shelter seem to be creations of the void rather than converts. However, the other party still chose to act at this moment according to its own will, in order to buy time for the other members of the Machine Soul Company.

Zero Seven sensed something deeper. Within the exploded containment facility, the aura of numerous relics from the old era flashed by, and like the members of the containment facility, they did not return to the bodies of the converts.

These things, which should have originated from the converts, collided and repelled the other's power at this moment. Although it only lasted for a moment under that extremely disparate power gap, the collision did indeed occur.

"Once something is born, it will not easily disappear..."

Lingqi murmured a sentence that Wang Yu had once said, seemingly from a work of entertainment she had encountered on Earth. However, the sentence was exceptionally apt at this moment, regardless of whether the convert was the source or mother of everyone present, just like the attitude of the survivors of the safe zone towards Yuancheng.

These beings, who come from the safe zone, have their own will and will never merge with the converts for such a trivial reason. They will struggle desperately until they are completely defeated.

The surrounding spatial structure has become increasingly fragile, seemingly as if the promise of eternal death is about to be fulfilled. However, on the other hand, the delays caused by the old relics that exploded from the containment measures have been completely erased in the blink of an eye. The speed of the converts has returned to normal, and they are crushing this side with an absolutely overwhelming force.

It was too late, absolutely too late. Even though the spatial rift was about to open, Lingqi's intuition still told her that if nothing else was affected, the converts would devour all the members of the Machine Soul Company before the spatial transfer was completed.

"Sizzle sizzle!"

As if responding to Zero Seven's feelings, if nothing else interferes with the converts' actions, then the spatial transfer will fail. So this variable has appeared once again. This time, the variable does not come from the Machine Soul Company in the realm behind the eternal deathly silence curtain.

Although a large number of armed forces were indeed mobilized by the Machine Soul Company to bombard the converts, these things also belonged to the other party. They were directly transformed into a part of it and completely absorbed during the flight. Let alone having any effect on it, it may even have provided a negligible enhancement.

The variable came from the external space. From the crack torn open by the convert, an extremely powerful spiritual energy suddenly blasted in, trying its best to pull the convert backward. The nameless figure appeared outside the crack, and his body was beginning to show signs of collapse as he mobilized this powerful spiritual energy.

Even so, compared to the convert, this "powerful" spiritual energy still seems so ridiculous. The only consolation is that this spiritual energy did indeed have an effect on the convert, very similar to how relics from the old era act on the other party.

The third, almost imperceptible pause seemed to be slightly longer than the previous two. The psychic energy released by the nameless one was not only delayed by the force acting on the convert, but also seemed to have some special properties for the convert.

"Click!"

From a great distance, Zero Seven glimpsed the figure releasing spiritual energy gradually disintegrating, and this was the last thing she saw here. The three delays ultimately provided enough time for Eternal Silence to respond to Zero Seven's request.

The spatial rift unfolded in the realm behind the curtain of eternal silence, once again swallowing the people of Machine Soul Company and throwing them toward their destination.

"The previous speculation was correct. The realm sealed by the walls of relics from the old era can be said to be the work of a great being. However, those walls of relics from the old era are not the means of the converts, but rather remnants left behind by that extinct past civilization. Were they rebels like us...?"

"No wonder the rules of that underground space are different from those of the outside world. Yuan City seems to be a creation made by converts to achieve their own purposes. The beings in the near-core spire have always regarded expansion as a means to strengthen the power they control, but in reality, they are nothing more than mere tools."

During the spatial transfer, Lingqi pondered everything about the converts. The underground space outside Yuancheng, enveloped by walls of relics from the old era, seemed to be gradually connecting. Psionic energy, relics from the old era—what exactly were these things, and why could they have a certain interference effect on the converts? These questions were being gradually revealed.

The old civilization buried underground was probably a group of rebels, just like the survivors of the current safe zone. They chose to refuse to acknowledge their own identity and refuse to return to the converts. But now it seems that what they have done is far inferior to that of the now-extinct old civilization. It is a truth that Zero Seven only learned at this moment.

The other side at least constructed those giant ancient relics walls and left behind psionic energy, something akin to a spark, while the current Machine Soul Company seems unable to do anything. But perhaps it's not entirely fair to blame Machine Soul Company.

According to Lingqi's conjecture, the current converts are probably already much stronger than in the past. By splitting themselves off and risking the rebellious will of their offspring, they have made themselves far more terrifying and several levels stronger than other great beings through their own plans.

The survivors of the safe zone, now members of the Machine Soul Corporation, are similar to the former rebels in the ruins, but there are still differences between them...

"Buzz!"

A massive, pitch-black rift opened in the real world, spewing out its inner existence before closing again, severing the passage to the realm beyond the curtain of eternal silence. Eternal silence had fulfilled its promise, which was more than enough. The closing of the rift likely meant that it would no longer provide any additional assistance to the current Machine Soul Company, or even Zero Seven.

At this moment, the place where the members of the Machine Soul Company who were thrown out were located, the place that Zero Seven requested to reach from Eternal Silence, was the very ground beneath their feet.

The vast area in front of them was covered by a strange mixture of metals and non-metals. Some traces of the past could be vaguely seen, but most things were completely buried by the previous disaster. The familiar aura of abnormal pollution filled the area. The Origin Sea, the area they were in was an abnormal zone, and the area covered by this abnormal zone was the former safe zone.

Yes, Zero Seven requested Eternal Silence to bring the people of Machine Soul Company back to the former safe zone. After experiencing that devastating disaster in the past, the safe zone has now become an abnormal zone belonging to the Origin Sea.
