Instead, it integrates magical energy into the power of the mutant genes.

Golden magic runes intertwined with green light.

It created a powerful wave of attack.

Nina was on the console.

Transform the power of mutant genes into code.

An attempt was made to break through the red node's defenses from within.

Thanks to everyone's joint efforts.

That unique force finally took effect on the dark red mycelium.

The mycelium began to shrink.

They were originally devouring energy like crazy.

It is now slowly dissipating.

"It worked!"

Ron shouted excitedly.

However, just when they thought they were about to win.

A more powerful force suddenly erupted from the center of the vortex.

A huge, dark red figure slowly rose from the vortex.

Its body is composed of 273 countless hyphae.

It exudes a chilling aura.

"What is this?"

Strange asked in shock.

Lorna's expression turned very serious.

"It seems this is the true form of the Reaper."

She stared intently at the dark red figure.

Refocus your attention.

The power of mutant genes has been maximized.

Ron, Strange, and Nina dared not slack off in the slightest.

They fully cooperated with Lorna.

They continuously poured their respective strengths into that unique power.

The dark red figure let out a roar.

Countless mycelia rushed towards the crowd.

Lorna immediately deployed a magnetic field barrier.

It protected everyone inside.

However, the attack of the mycelium is extremely fierce.

Chapter 181 Crack

Cracks began to appear in the magnetic field barrier.

"Hold on!"

Lorna said through gritted teeth.

She knew that they had no way out at this moment.

Must go all out.

Just as the magnetic field barrier was about to break.

A beam of green light shot out from the core crystal.

It struck the dark red figure directly.

Wendy's voice echoed in everyone's minds.

"I'll help you!"

With Wendy joining the team.

The power of the group grew even stronger.

That unique power was like a surging tide.

They surged toward the dark red figure.

The dark red figure began to struggle violently.

Its body was impacted by the force.

Cracks gradually appeared.

"It's now!"

Lorna shouted.

Everyone simultaneously increased their power output.

With a loud bang.

The dark red figure was finally completely destroyed.

Its body turned into countless dark red dust particles.

Dissipated into the air.

The vortex then disappeared.

The circular building gradually returned to calm.

The energy pipes no longer emitted blue electric arcs.

The protective shield has stabilized again.

Everyone collapsed to the ground.

Breathing heavily.

This battle exhausted them completely.

"We...succeeded..."

Ron asked weakly.

Lorna gave a tired smile.

"Yes, we succeeded."

Wendy's image emerged from the core crystal.

"Thanks to everyone's concerted efforts."

Only then can we defeat the reapers.

Strange stood up.

Dusted himself off.

"Although this crisis has been resolved."

But there will be even more challenges ahead.

Nina nodded in agreement.

"Yes, we must be prepared."

Lorna looked outside the protective shield.

Those star messengers who had originally gathered.

At this moment, some of them have already regained their original shape.

They flew toward the circular building.

The lead messenger once again displayed Earth script.

"You have demonstrated tremendous strength and courage."

We are willing to share more knowledge and technology with you.

Lorna greeted them with a smile.

“Welcome.

Let's embark on a new journey together on Earth.

With the help of the Star Messenger.

The circular building underwent further renovation and upgrades.

People around the world responded to the call.

Choose your location.

They contributed their efforts to the launch of the Earth.

Lorna stood at the control panel.

Looking at the busy people.

My heart is filled with hope.

The inheritance left by the father.

Finally, at this moment, it shone with true brilliance.

Earth is about to embark on an interstellar journey filled with unknowns and challenges.

And they are half.

They will become pioneers on this journey.

The energy core of the ring-shaped building has stabilized again.

Wendy's figure stretched out inside the crystal ball, the green light rising and falling like breathing.

Lorna watched the data stream jumping on the console, the red nodes in the magnetic field sensor were going out one by one, like bloodstains being washed away by the morning dew.

“Energy cycle restored 37%.” Nina’s mechanical eyes flashed the repair progress, “but the remnants of the Reaper’s mycelium have left a backdoor in the system.”

She brought up the holographic projection, and countless dark red lines were wrapped around the energy pipes of the ring-shaped building, like a malignant tumor clinging to the bone.

Ron's Xuanming vines suddenly sprouted new shoots, wrapping and decomposing a mycelium: "These things are afraid of the symbiont's metabolic enzymes." The black substance spread along the pipe, and wherever it passed, the dark red lines quickly dissolved, "but it will take time, at least seventy-two hours to clean it up."

Strange's slingshot suddenly flew to the edge of the protective shield, drawing a golden runic circle there. Inside the runic circle, the silver dust from the disintegrated Star Messenger was reforming, gradually coalescing into a star map of the Zeta system: "The messenger left this behind before he disappeared."

Chapter 182 Attraction

Lorna's gaze was drawn to the dark purple area at the edge of the star map. The blank space there was not emptiness, but some kind of deliberately hidden coordinates—perfectly matching the patterns on the Magnus remains.

“The Reapers don’t appear randomly.” The magnetic field patterns on her fingertips resonated with the star map, and a line of distorted text appeared in the dark purple area. “They are searching for the ‘Abandoners’.”

“The Abandoned Ones?” Ron’s vines suddenly stopped. “What are those?”

Wendy, inside the core crystal, suddenly opened her eyes, and a green light projected an image: a damaged interstellar ark, its hull marked with symbols similar to those of the Sons of Dawn, its hatches wide open, and countless hibernation pods floating inside—each pod containing a Sentinel with Magneto's face.

“Father’s cloning project. 273,” Lorna’s voice was chilling. “He not only cloned himself, but also sent these clones to all parts of the universe as bait to attract observers.”

The scene shifts, showing the interstellar ark being swallowed by a dark purple "vortex," and the metal shell of the hibernation pod being rapidly covered by mycelium, eventually mutating into the form of a Reaper: "These clones have combined the Sentinels' devouring ability with mutant genes, becoming the Reapers' 'incubators'."

Strange's rune circle suddenly flickered violently: "The messenger from the Zeta system is warning us—there is more than one Abandoner. According to the Starmap system, at least seven Arks are scattered throughout the known universe, each carrying enough genetic samples to hatch the Reaper Legion."

An alarm suddenly sounded in the circular building. Outside the protective shield, the re-coalescing star messengers were retreating en masse, the same warning symbol appearing on their surfaces: the danger level had been raised to "Annihilation".

Lorna felt a burning pain in her palm as she pressed it against the control panel. In the magnetic field sensor, the dark purple area was expanding, seeping into every corner of the star map like ink dripping into clear water—it was the Reaper's tracking signal, spreading from Earth to the entire universe.
