After Yaden finished the gift, when he raised his head again, he had already changed places with his friends.

He quietly took a look around. He seemed to be in a giant palace. The surroundings were magnificent but extremely empty. At a glance, he could not see the end. He could only see a figure standing on a huge throne not far away. A powerful being wearing purple-black robes sat in it, a pair of eyes flashing with golden light looking at him.

"Is this the inside of the spaceship just now? I feel the teleportation crystal is nearby..."

Sarah's voice came from beside her.

Arden also came to his senses immediately, with an incredible expression on his face.

Although he didn't know how the other party did it, if it hadn't been for Sarah's reminder, he might have really thought that he and others had been transported to an unknown planet, and this should be a palace on that planet.

Arden's expression suddenly froze. Looking carefully, this palace seemed unusually familiar.

He and Zeroda looked at each other. They were both Templars in the past, so they were naturally very familiar with this place now.

This is clearly the temple of the temple headquarters in the home system!

At first, they didn't notice it because they were too nervous. Later, they realized something was wrong after they calmed down.

Arden immediately understood that the person in front of him must have read the scene here through his own memory during the short period of contact with him, so he created a similar place.

"But... is there really such a big space inside the spacecraft...?"

He looked again at the endless black hole in the palace corridor, hesitation in his eyes.

From the outside, the spaceship definitely doesn't look that big. If all this wasn't an illusion of holographic projection, it would be terrible...

"Is this space construction technology? What kind of existence are they? Not only are they so powerful, but they also master such high-end technological power. Is this a more advanced civilization?"

As a Dark Templar who had betrayed his oath, Arden was subconsciously unwilling to believe that there were gods in this world. After a brief thought, he finally found a seemingly reasonable explanation for the other party's identity. explain.

"I remember the Great Elder said before that our Phantom Tribe once tried to use the power of psychic energy to move towards a more advanced civilization, but in the end we failed. Could it be that the race of the alien in front of us has transcended Is it a more advanced civilization with current material technology..."

Arden was thinking secretly in his heart, and it had to be said that his guess was still very accurate, at least he was roughly right.

However, he may never have imagined that the humans of Aqua Planet are a higher-level civilization. It’s just that most of the methods Zhang Xiaoman showed came from the Dark Star Alliance. It was another universe that really crushed them at the level of civilization level. Overlord-level civilization.

Just as Yaden and others were thinking wildly, Zhang Xiaoman had flown in front of them, emitting a soft white light, which actually healed all the physical injuries of the psychic warriors.

"Welcome to my ship. I have roughly understood what happened to you, and I regret it."

Seeing that he had cured his companion's injury with a wave of his hand, Arden quickly lowered his head and saluted:

"Thank you for your generous help. You are our benefactor, and we will always remember your kindness! I am Adun. These are the few remaining warriors of our clan. Great being, what should we call you?"

"Call me Ji Xing."

"Thank you, Polestar!"

The surrounding phantom companions also saluted excitedly.

Many people's injuries have not healed since the battle with the Zerg in the camp a few days ago. With the continuous travel, the injuries have worsened a lot. They were already in unbearable pain. They did not expect to be cured so easily. Let them be more in awe of the strength of the person in front of them.

Zhang Xiaoman did not say too much nonsense, but went directly to the topic. As soon as his thoughts moved, the surrounding palace instantly transformed into a background of a dark starry sky.

Arden and the others were caught off guard and became slightly commotion, but they soon regained their composure, and their attention was completely attracted by the scene they saw in front of them.

Under the starry sky, there is a deserted planet. On the planet, dozens of behemoths with a body length of several kilometers are hovering above.

They are covered in black carapace, and their appearance looks like an insect that has been magnified countless times. Countless tentacles are waving under the body, and dense numbers of alien insects are constantly emerging from them, filling the entire world. .

"These are... zerg! That's the Zerg mothership! Oh my god! There are so many of them!"

Arden had also seen the Zerg mothership and immediately recognized it.

It's just that because the entire technological network had collapsed at that time, they could not receive information from the outside world at all. They could only see the epic giant insect hovering above their heads, and then the planet they and others were on was destroyed. Destroyed.

As for what was happening in front of him, Arden felt terrified just by looking at it.

A Zerg mothership destroyed the planet he lived on before, and with so many monsters in front of him, what a terrifying force it must be!

"What you see are natural disasters from another universe. They devour everything, life, metal, energy, and even the planet... They are crazy beasts, irrational killing machines, they will Destroying all living creatures in their path, we call them - worms."

Zhang Xiaoman's voice came at the right time.

Along with his words, the surrounding scenes are constantly changing, with flames, killings, and blood filling the surroundings. This is the scene that once recorded the impact of the Battle of the Moon, and was the scene where the insect swarms madly attacked the moon base at the beginning.

"Desolate insects...it turns out they are called desert insects..."

Arden muttered something to himself, and then continued to watch the battle in front of him intently.

He could see that individuals who looked similar to the person in front of him were fighting against those monsters. Each of them was extremely powerful. In the Phantom Galaxy, they were definitely beyond the reach of even the most powerful warriors.

However, these powerful psykers were unable to organize such a terrifying number of wild insects, and the battle presented a scorching and tragic scene.

"Are these bugs... really so scary... and what should we do to fight them...?"

Although Arden has fought against bugs for many years, he has always been hiding from being chased, and there have been almost no real head-to-head confrontations.

There was no way, the difference in the number of the two shots was too big, and there was no way to form a situation of even strength. The entire Zerg invasion war was a one-sided situation from the beginning.

In addition, the technology of the Phantom Race collapsed under the influence of the Insect Realm, so Arden only knew that his race had failed, but he did not have a clear understanding of the specific situation of the current war.

Now, after seeing the influence played by the person named Ji Xing in front of him, he finally saw the true appearance of the insect swarm for the first time. The huge number that filled the entire sky almost exceeded his own. According to his imagination, the insect swarms he had seen before were nothing compared to them.

The battle was going on rapidly, and time was sped up a lot by Zhang Xiaoman. Soon it was time to reach the scene where he led the 300 undead to kill the entire Zerg army.

Seeing that the swarm of insects that were so arrogant before were wiped out in an instant, Arden and others were still unable to react for a while.

"Is this...the power of a more advanced psychic civilization...For us, what is the difference between them and real gods..."

Soon, Yaden and others came to their senses one after another, but at this moment, the eyes looking at Zhang Xiaoman changed unconsciously.

It was an existence that could possess such power in front of them. Isn't it the same as the God of the Void whom they always believed in in the temple?

Could it be that they are really gods?

After seeing the situation of himself and others, the gods came to save him?

"The threat of the wild worms cannot be ignored. What you have seen is just the tip of the iceberg. I can tell you clearly that in your galaxy, the number of wild worms is far beyond your imagination. The one just now A dozen or so Domicus starworms are just larvae, there are countless of them in the insect realm, and now they are entrenched in your galaxy and are spreading to all directions."

After hearing his words, the faces of the group of phantoms changed greatly.

There are countless Zerg motherships like this in our own galaxy?

What a terrifying race this is!

How numerous are they?

Could it be said that the fate of the Phantom Clan has been determined? Facing such a large scale of wild insects, they had no hope of resistance.

"Your Excellency Ji Xing... we..."

Arden wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't. He seemed to have aged dozens of years all of a sudden, and his body couldn't help but feel a little limp.

Zhang Xiaoman injected a ray of spiritual energy into him, making him feel slightly better.

"Cheer up, warrior."

"What you are facing now is the inevitable result of the fusion of two universes. I have been to many places and have also arrived at another universe that is merging with ours. Your location is at the fusion node, which happens to be in the wilderness. The scope of Bugland, I feel sorry for that.”

"But you should not give up. The wild insects are the common enemy of all life forms in the universe. You will not fight alone."

"I'll give you two choices..."

"First, I will take you to a new home far away from the wild insects, where you will spend the rest of your lives stably. The price is that you may not be able to return to this galaxy for the rest of your life, and you can only live in that new home. Spend the rest of your life inside.”

"Second, fight with us, contribute your strength, loyalty, and lives to fight against the worms together. The price is that you may die on the battlefield fighting the worms."

"Now, tell me your choice."

Arden and the others listened to all this attentively. After looking at each other, it didn't take long for them to give their answers.

"Your Excellency Ji Xing, there are no cowards in the Phantom Clan. We are willing to offer our loyalty to you. All we ask is that you give us a chance! Let us follow you and take revenge like those wild insects that destroyed our homeland!"

Arden knelt down on one knee, and the other eidolons followed suit.

Zhang Xiaoman nodded with satisfaction and said:

"Very good, I appreciate your courage and will, and I give you a promise. If the Phantom Galaxy is conquered one day, I will return it to the hands of the Phantom Tribe, provided that you also fulfill your promise."

Arden and other phantoms touched their chests.

"Never give up!"

The first meeting and conversation with the Phantom Tribe ended successfully. Zhang Xiaoman arranged a room for them in the spaceship and let them rest for a while.

On the other end, in the command room.

Li Xiang and other crew members, under the leadership of Ziwei, watched the situation there through the holographic image. When they saw the group of phantoms kneeling, for some reason, everyone couldn't help it. A little excited.

"Hehe, it seems that our human race is quite good. This Phantom Race seems to be much more powerful than the Ancient Leng Star. Unexpectedly, it actually swore allegiance to the Star Lord. Tsk tsk, the boss is really powerful. What if he makes a move? It’s all done!”

"Yes, yes. Before we came here, I thought we were going to engage in some kind of diplomacy when we came into contact with those phantoms. I didn't expect it to be so relaxed and happy. It was really beyond my expectation."

"The Phantom Tribe, the Phantom Tribe, is such a magical race. You see, they don't seem to have a mouth. So how do they make sounds? How do they eat? Don't they need to eat? They can do it in other ways. To gain energy?”

"..."

A group of crew members started a discussion, and Ziwei watched it with great interest. She got a big bag of popcorn from somewhere and ate it happily.

However, regarding the discussion just now, one kind of crew member only understood a general idea. There were many parts where they were confused and did not understand what their boss actually said to them.

Because in their opinion, they can understand the words of these phantom tribesmen individually, but they can't understand them together. They can only guess the meaning based on the bits and pieces of literal information.

Li Xiang and the others were not stupid. They had done their homework before coming here and knew that this was the special communication method of the Phantom Clan. The leaders of the organization's research department called it a static language system, which was somewhat similar to a form of telepathy, but the Phantom The clan has not yet fully reached that level, it can only barely reach one-third, and more than half of the language system still needs to be conveyed through sound waves.

Ziwei also discovered this situation. In order to avoid the embarrassment in the subsequent interactions between the two parties, she installed a static language communication module for each of Li Xiang and others, so that they could no longer communicate with the phantom. There are barriers.
