the only savior

Chapter 1117 The Rise of the Will of the Illusory Spirit Race
The Phantom Race, a race spanning several super galaxy clusters.

It used to be a great civilization, and the development of tens of thousands of years allowed them to master the technology beyond the reach of lower civilizations.

They used these technologies to explore one piece of unknown space after another, and built one splendid home after another.

However, when the power of material science and technology developed to a certain level, they fell into a bottleneck.

In order to solve this problem, the people of the Phantom Spirit Tribe began to gradually explore deeper psionic technology, that is, dark spirit technology.

The first batch of phantoms who used psionic power were born, and they discovered that psionic power is truly omnipotent, not only capable of evolving all things, but also bringing great power to themselves, leading to true immortality.

The emergence of psychic power has changed the habits of the Phantom Race. The explorers no longer continue to explore, but return to the sanctuary of the mother galaxy to learn the power that can make people immortal.

At first everything was good, learning was thriving, everyone was thirsty for knowledge, trying to change the world through their own efforts.

However, as time went on, when more and more individuals mastered the power of psionic energy, ambition was born.

The coup d'état set off wars again and again, and the constant disputes lasted for tens of thousands of years. Finally, this once glorious race was exhausted, and it no longer had vitality, just like a dying old man,

Misfortunes never come singly, just when everyone realized this and were about to save everything, a shocking prophecy came from the church.

The Great Elder told the world that the favor of the Void God is about to disappear, people will lose their spiritual power, and a terrifying crisis of annihilation will occur in the future. Unless the savior is found, the phantom spirits will become the universe. a piece of history.

The appearance of this prophecy completely caused a sensation in the entire civilization, and no one wanted to believe its content.

But the Great Elder's predictions have never been missed, especially the predictions that cost their lives, so they cannot be ignored. Even if they don't want to believe it, they still have to pay attention to it.

The people of the tribe interpreted the prophecy and learned that the civilization that can save them is in this star field, and it is still at a very weak stage.

So in the next period of time, there was a situation that Zhang Xiaoman and others knew.

The phantom spirits began to look for new civilizations in the universe, especially those newly born weak civilizations, to help them overcome the early development difficulties and accelerate their civilization process. The only requirement is that the other party can encounter difficulties in their own race in the future When it's time, do yourself a favor.

The ancient star civilization is one of them.

However, 300 years have passed, although the psionic power has completely disappeared, and the phantom spirits have lost the power to control the psionic power, but the doomsday predicted by the great elder has never come, which makes many people feel a little lucky.

They believed that the doomsday that the Great Elder had said at the beginning was actually just the passing of spiritual energy.

This is nothing to the vast majority of ordinary people without psychic talent. Only those practitioners who have mastered psychic power will feel hopeless, because the loss of psychic power makes them lose the power of immortality. They turned into dry bones.

History was rewritten on this day, and 300 years later, the phantoms of the new generation gradually forgot the fact that their race used to use psionic power.

However, just when they thought all this would pass away so silently, the end came.

An unknown purple crack appeared in the core region of the parent galaxy. The crack was only a small area at the beginning, and did not attract much attention.

However, only a few years later, the real crisis broke out immediately.

Countless swarms of black worms came out of nowhere, and began to invade their planet in large numbers. They called this kind of worms "zergs".

The zerg are extremely ferocious, not only possessing the ability to travel in space, but also master the destructive power of psionic energy, which can easily tear through their toughest armor.

At the same time, a special field spread out around the crack, but all the mechanical equipment within this field stopped working and turned into a pile of scrap iron.

This change caused the phantom spirits who had already lost their spiritual power to completely lose their ability to resist, and their homes were destroyed one by one under the attack of the Zerg, and became a parasite for more Zerg to grow and breed.

People finally saw what the real doomsday was, and understood the truth of the Great Elder's original prediction, but it was too late.

The races that had helped them were useless at all. Under the interference of the Zombie Domain, the fragile technological power of those races was like a bubble that would shatter at the first touch, and soon no one was willing to set foot in this galaxy.

In just a few decades, the mother galaxy has been completely reduced to a paradise for Zergs, and the Phantom Race exists in name only.

Now, on this yellow sand planet called "Dotan Star", the phantoms here have finally established their own camp. They are already the few remaining survivors in this race.

These people managed to hide here after fleeing several times. They thought they could survive for a while, but they didn't expect to be discovered by those bugs so soon.

In the camp, after hundreds of people fought against the Zerg, there were only less than a hundred people left, and they were in danger, and they were in danger of being overthrown at any time.

……

At night, in a temporary camp on the planet.

The crackling of the flames brought a little light and warmth to the small camp.

The survivors of the Phantom Race built simple shelters with dead wood and rocks, barely able to withstand the invasion of some wind and sand.

Although doing so still couldn't stop the real storm, at least everyone could get a good night's sleep tonight.

"Sarah, how many companions do we have?"

In front of a small shack, by the bonfire, Raton was bandaging his wound in the most crude way, and at the same time asked about the current situation.

Beside her, a gray-skinned female phantom was stirring a sticky liquid in a dilapidated small bucket. She had a slightly dazed expression on her face, and it took a long time for her to come back to her senses after hearing Raton's words. , said:
"There are only 87 people, and there are only 15 fighters who can use psionic powers. Including you, there are only five Templars left..."

"Are there five left..."

Raton's face was ugly, and he fell into deep thought.

The female phantom seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said:

"Radon, now you have awakened the spiritual shield and become a high-ranking templar. This is an unprecedented honor. Maybe you can lead us out!"

The expression on Sarah's face was full of anticipation. This was probably the best news they had encountered in this period of time.

However, compared to the excitement of the female phantom, Raton was very calm, even a little depressed.

"Sarah...it's useless. Although high-ranking templars can use shields to defend against the attacks of the zerg, there are too many of them. I can't resist it alone..."

"You must have seen the battle during the day, those bugs have not yet arrived, and the sentinels who were just investigating first defeated us... I don't know how to face these guys, let me do it again If not, I might not have that courage again..."

Sarah touched Raton's cheek with her hand, and at the same time passed the small broken bucket in her hand, and said:
"Don't say that, Raton, you are our hope, you need to be strong to lead us out of this predicament, here's to you, eat something first."

Raton took the small broken bucket subconsciously, staring at it in a daze.

It took him a while to realize that the braid-like hair on the back of his head stretched out and sank into the small broken bucket, and he began to swallow the paste-like viscous liquid inside.

Sarah on the side showed a happy expression when she saw this, and wanted to cook another bowl of food, but was stopped by Raton.

"We're running out of food, Sarah, save some, let's face the rest of the journey..."

At this time, a male phantom with sharp eyes in a cloak came in. This man was the friend who had desperately rescued Laden in the camp earlier.

After seeing Raton, he sat down on the ground, unceremoniously inserted his "hair" into his bowl, and enjoyed the food with him.

"Zeloda! That's Rodan's food!"

Sarah reminded in displeasure.

Zeroda ignored her, took two bites and took the tentacles back, saying:
"Laton, I took someone to investigate just now. There is no trace of insects in this area for the time being, but the possibility of them moving underground is not ruled out. There is no water source nearby. Our reserves can only last for another three days at most. .”

"Is it only three days... It seems that we have to find a way to get out of here, it is best to go to other planets..."

"I'm afraid it will be difficult. Our last crystal fell into the camp of the crystal rock field. It must have been occupied by the Zerg now. Unless we retrieve the crystal, we don't even have to think about leaving."

Faced with the difficulties raised by Zelda, Raton obviously had no good solution. He knew that it would be impossible to get the crystal back. There were too many bugs there. They would be dying if they rushed there. .

And after the teleportation during the day, they don't know where they are on this planet. If they want to find a crystal in such a vast expanse of yellow sand, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"I have a little power to resonate with the crystal. As long as I get close to the crystal, I should be able to sense it... It's just that the crystal transmission points on our other planets have been destroyed. Even if we find the psionic crystal, where can we escape? Go? Do you want to perform random teleportation?"

Sarah said.

"Yeah, the teleportation points have been destroyed, and now we can only teleport randomly, but if we teleport to a supergravity planet, I'm afraid we will all die there..."

Zeroda shook his head.

Raton remained silent, and things fell into a situation where they couldn't do anything.

"In any case, we still have to retrieve the crystal. Only in this way can we ensure that we have a way out at the last moment."

"Well, let's find a way to find the crystal first, and then I'll lure those bugs away, and you take this opportunity to take it. This is our last hope..."

"No! This is too risky! Let's just give up the crystal and find a place to hide on this planet. It's so big here, it shouldn't be so easy for bugs to find us!"

"You and I have seen the reproduction speed of the zerg. Now that they have found this place, it will not be long before this planet will no longer have a place for us. In the end, it will be a dead end..."

"hateful!"

Raton hammered the ground, Zeroda looked at the bonfire without saying a word, and Sarah showed sadness.

"Laden, you said that our psychic talent has returned, has the Void God really awakened...?"

Sarah looked at the sky in a trance.

Zeroda looked up at him, then lowered his head again, as if meditating.

The surrounding companions also raised their ears to listen to the sound here, but no one spoke.

Raton shook his head and said:
"I don't know if the Void God really exists, but I have been listening to the legends about him from the elders since I was born, but I have never really seen him..."

"The phantom spirits were destroyed by the insects, and countless people were killed by them. If there is a void god, why doesn't he appear? His followers and people are about to perish, but he doesn't even have a shadow. Even if gods really exist, what is there for us to believe in?"

Raton sighed, his eyes suddenly became extremely firm again.

"Forget about the God of the Void, instead of kneeling in front of his statue and slaying, I would rather stand and fight the Zerg to the end! The road to the temple is bright, but I prefer to embrace the darkness, just to wake us up Fellow souls!"

And his words did not deliberately avoid the companions around him, and after seeing this, those people also had a flash of regret on their faces, and at the same time, for some reason, there was an extra ray of relief in their hearts.

Seeing that everyone was paying attention, Raton simply stood up, then stretched out his hand and swiped vigorously on his arm engraved with the temple pattern, scratching the pattern representing Tartarus, the god of the void, revealing Dark blue blood comes.

At this moment, within the Phantom Spirit Race, a group that no longer believed in gods appeared.

They pierced their sanctuary marks, abandoned their belief in Tartarus, the god of the void, and gave up their desire for light, and took the name of darkness instead.

From this moment on, the flame representing the true will of the Phantom Spirit Clan ignited. Although the fire was small, it could burn the entire plain over time.
