Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 238: Space-time Corridor

After escaping the calamity, the four of them sat quietly on one side and consciously circulated their Origin Energy through the blood vessels in their bodies, gradually recharging the exhausted energy. Allen was praised by the Abyss Devils for the life essence that he had passed through from time to time, and he recovered the fastest. When he opened his eyes, his Origin Energy had already recovered by 70%, and even his injuries had mostly healed. He felt that when he met Kamu again, he would have the power to fight again.

Kamu was no ordinary Saber Demon General. In order to force him back, Alan had almost squeezed out all of his Origin Energy. Using four successive Flame Breath Flashes in a short period of time had also reached the limit of his body's energy. However, there were some gains. Even Kamu was unwilling to face his high-temperature and high-speed cutting waves head on. It could be seen that the Flame Breath Flash still posed a threat to a general-level Saber Demon.

But its shortcomings are equally obvious.

That was, the change was insufficient, but it was fast. However, because the trajectory of the attack did not change, it was easy for others to see through it beforehand. Thus, he could dodge and defend against those below LV20, but against experts like Kamu who had rich combat experience, it would be easy to break the seal.

Alan looked at Qianjun and thought that if he could use this heavy saber to a higher level and break through the weakness of a heavy weapon in terms of speed, he would be able to use his previous skill, "Shattered Moon", which could transform ten thousand flames with a single saber. If the Moon Shattering Technique was combined with the Flame Breath Flash, it would make up for the deficiency of the Flame Breath Flash, and it would become a more threatening battle technique.

However, it was not easy to apply Qianjun to that extent. Just the level of Origin Energy was an unavoidable weakness for Alan. No matter how skillful he was, without a strong Origin Energy as a backing, he would never talk about anything else.

This was not something that could be accomplished overnight, so Alan had to temporarily suppress this thought and concentrate instead on what was right in front of him.

How to get out of the trap was the most important problem they were facing now.

Don't look at the door which is closed, and the automatic door of the power room uses thickened armor plates. However, if the Saber Demon wanted to enter, it would only be a matter of time. Right now, the four of them were in a floating corridor, connecting to the second automatic door of the power room. That was where the real door leading to the power room was. The corridor is about 30 meters long and hangs on both sides. Looking down from the corridor, one could see that the lower part of the power room was connected to the lower part by a metal cylinder. Strong electric currents continuously shot out from the cylinder, turning and ejecting in the space below.

This space, including the corridor, was also filled with seven-colored light. The ball of colorful light floated in the corridor without knowing where it came from.

Suddenly, the sound of the door activating came from behind him.

Alan was truly shocked, and he jumped up from the ground when he picked up Qianjun. Alan was stunned when he looked back.

Double shadows actually appeared on the door, but in fact, it had not been opened yet. However, an image of the armor plate sliding into the door appeared. It was as if someone was projecting an image, but in reality, there were no projectors in the corridor.

However, the voice was true.

Not only did Alan hear it, but even Lucy and the others woke up and opened their eyes.

"What's going on?" William looked at the double shadow on the door in astonishment.

No one could answer his question.

In that projection, half of the door finally opened. One could see that there was a fierce battle outside the door. The shockwaves and shouts of the explosion entered the ears of Allen and the others, and they could even feel the surrounding air becoming somewhat scorching hot. Then, a few figures crawled in from outside the door. They were actually Saber Demons!

The person in the middle was very tall, with an irregular and ferocious armor hanging on his body, and a cloak painted with a tribal pattern on his back was already in tatters. The Saber Demon was holding a rough warhammer in his hand. The warhammer seemed to have some natural patterns that flowed with a bright yellow luster from time to time. On the surface of the hammer, a ball of bright flames continued to rise, like a large torch in the hands of a Saber Demon.

Looking at the other Saber Demons, they were all at the general level. It could be seen from their upright bodies that only a general-level Saber Demon would be able to complete at least one evolution, altering their spine structure, thus forming a life form that was more capable of exerting its strength.

These saber devils seemed to be on guard and kept retreating. Right at this moment, a ball of silver light entered from outside the door. The warhammer wielding Devil Cultivator roared. Although it was only a projection, the sound was transmitted to Allen and the others' ears as if it were real. This shout actually carried the penetrating power of piercing through stones and remnants of gold, causing the eardrums of the few people to feel pain when they heard it. What shocked them even more was that the projection of the ancestor on the blade devil's head was not the image of the blade devil, but the curved horns on its head and its hair spurting out flames. Big head full of dense eyes, hands like an ape arm monster.

The fierce beast phantom followed the saber demon warhammer and similarly pounced on the silver figure that rushed in from outside the door. The two collided and exploded with an invisible Origin Energy flame. A loud explosion that was like hitting a mountain rumbled endlessly, causing Allen and the others' expressions to change drastically. When the light subsided slightly, there was a large spark of iron lying on the ground. From the looks of it, it should be some kind of metal machine, but it was smashed flat by the Saber Demon's hammer. The Saber Demon kicked him out of the door and repeatedly shouted. A general rushed to the door and used the system inside to close the door.

Only then did the Saber Demons let out a sigh of relief. The Saber Demons holding war hammers should be their leaders, and even the previous generation of chiefs of the tribes currently occupying the Sacred Remains. He gestured for five or six generals to turn around and walk towards Allen and the others. Knowing that these were phantom images, Allen and the others felt a burst of nervousness. It wasn't until their shadows and the four of them brushed past that the shadows suddenly disappeared.

Alan stood there for a while before smiling bitterly, "What are we seeing?"

Lucy frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, "Do you remember what we saw in the data room? The captain of the Erosa said that the warp accelerator had malfunctioned because the sentry lost control, and that they had deviated from course to Nether Domain."

"Could these projections be related to that accident?" William asked.

"I'm afraid that's the case. I think the engineers on board didn't have time to repair the accelerator and caused even more damage when the Erosa made an emergency landing on Planet Nether Domain." Lucy raised her head and said, "Your planet's interstellar navigation technology is also based on our warp space theory. Warp space is a special space that is one or even several dimensions higher than the real universe. It's similar to a wormhole, but it's not. Matter can move quickly in this space, which is our main means of crossing star domains."

"As we all know, warp space is not only capable of crossing star regions and traveling long distances. It also affects time, so when we travel through warp space, we find that it seems to have only taken a very short amount of time in space, but many days have actually passed."

Allen said, "What about the image just now?"

"Accelerator damage, it is very likely that part of this space, or even all of it, is in warp space. In this corridor, I suspect that space and time are unstable. This was probably already the case when these Saber Devils entered. Under such a condition, when they used a large amount of Origin Energy to fight, there was a high chance that space would record them down. It's also possible that we traveled through space and time and saw something that was happening. "Lucy looked at the corridor doubtfully." Anyway, I doubt we'll be able to get to the other side of the corridor. "

"How can we not reach it? It's only a few dozen meters away." Said Wilick.

Alan suddenly raised the beam gun at his feet and threw it forward. With his full strength, the beam gun should have reached the end of the corridor without any hindrance. However, after the beam gun flew seven or eight meters away, it suddenly disappeared into the air. This strange scene left them stunned on the spot. A few minutes later, the beam gun suddenly appeared above their heads and was caught by Wilick.

"I've really seen a ghost." Welik murmured.

"Indeed, the space-time here has become unstable. However, after so many years, the force field in the warp space was weakening. Otherwise, the beam gun would disappear forever. The problem is, if we accidentally enter a spatial gap, we don't know where the exit will be. "If they're still in the hallway, what if they fall into the reactor down there " Lucy didn't have to continue, and they knew how serious the consequences would be.

Wilick's face immediately collapsed. "Then shouldn't we be unable to move an inch?"

"Not necessarily. As you saw earlier, the Speed of Light Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Speed Alan said.

Lucy shook her head and said, "You mean to use something for exploring the road, but it's not safe either." Let's not talk about whether the spatial and temporal rifts are fixed, even if they are. If we want to cross over, we have to take great risks. Under the condition that warp space is stable, the magic energy starship sails in space at a corresponding speed to offset the impact of most warp space, so that it can safely arrive at its preset destination. "On the basis of this theory, it is not difficult to deduce that if space is unstable, even if our speed can offset the impact of space, who knows where the exit will be and how much time will pass?"

"The most frightening thing about this is the unpredictability of time. Have you ever thought that if only a few minutes have passed, it would be fine? If ten years or more had passed by the time we came out, we would have died when we left space!"

Allen and the others' faces immediately turned ugly.

At this moment, another cry of alarm sounded from the front of the corridor. Then, a new image appeared.

It was still the Saber Demons, but one of the generals seemed to have betrayed everyone. In the image that appeared, the general holding a battle spear was pulling the spear out of his companion's chest. The chief let out a furious roar as he swung his warhammer at the general. The general leapt forward with his gun and immediately started a fierce battle in this corridor.

The four of them looked at each other, completely unaware of what had happened.
