124: An unexpected surprise, the Alien Queen evolves again
Before Chen Xuantong's ear-splitting roar had even faded, the two terrifying, ultimate energy cores in the testing ground—the Lie Kong Blade Wing Alien and the Abyssal Poison Earth-Rending Alien—finally completed their final metamorphosis!
“Buzz—!”
An invisible, terrifying pressure that could freeze the soul suddenly descended!
The Lie Kong Blade Wing Alien's wings abruptly spread to their limit!
No longer was it a dazzling silver light, but a deep, restrained gloom!
At the edges of those bone wings, which seemed to be composed of spatial fragments, space no longer twisted and cut, but silently collapsed and annihilated, like water into which a stone had been thrown!
Forming two continuously extending, light-devouring dark trails!
Its massive body floated up, profound spatial runes flowing across its carapace, each breath stirring ripples in the surrounding space, like a monarch born of space itself.
A silver light blade, condensed to the extreme, as if capable of cutting through the essence of the world, slowly rotated and condensed within its chest core... the core of the Space Cutting Rule, materialized!
“Hiss—Roar—!”
Another, deeper roar, as if from the Nine Nether Abyss, rang out.
The range of the toxic swamp beneath the Abyssal Poison Earth-Rending Alien's feet instantly expanded tenfold!
The dark purple toxic mist no longer merely diffused, but, as if alive, condensed into churning tentacles emanating an aura of absolute deathly stillness!
On its massive body, the thick, dark green carapace completely transformed into a deep, dark crystal color that seemed to absorb all light, covered in natural demonic patterns representing decay and annihilation.
Where it stood, space no longer decayed, but directly turned into nothingness!
A constantly rotating, matter-and-energy-devouring miniature black hole vortex shimmered in and out of view at the core of its chest, like an abyssal maw... the core of Annihilation and Decay Rules, doubly materialized!
Transcendent-level!
The true Transcendent-level power of rules!
The power they unleashed at this moment had truly stepped into the Transcendent-level!
“Boom!!!”
The already crumbling energy shield, under the impact of these two truly Transcendent-level pressures, shattered with a crash like fragile glass!
Violent energy turbulence, like a breached dam, instantly swept through the entire testing ground!
“Puff, puff, puff!”
In the control room, all the researchers and engineers who were still holding on, regardless of their strength, simultaneously spat blood!
Instrument screens flickered wildly, over half instantly went black, emitting blue smoke!
Piercing alarms merged into a desperate wail!
“Protect the Director!!”
The guard captain's eyes were bloodshot, and he led the remaining guards to form a human wall in front of the control panel, their bodies erupting with various types of battle qi or energy shields, but under the impact of the scattered energy turbulence, they were like candles in the wind, and several people screamed as they were knocked flying, their fates unknown.
The entire testing ground was a mess, filled with smoke and dust, and the scorched smell after the energy rampage mixed with the sweet, decaying odor emitted by the Abyssal Poison Earth-Rending Alien, making it nauseating.
However, at the center of this chaos and destruction, Lin Feng stood motionless, like a reef in a torrent.
The violent energy turbulence seemed to have a will of its own, all bypassing the spot where Lin Feng stood.
His gaze did not fully linger on the two “quasi-Transcendent” Xenomorphs emanating terrifying pressure, but narrowed slightly, and a hint of imperceptible surprise flashed in the depths of his profound pupils.
Just now, at the moment the two rule cores completely condensed and formed, he keenly felt that in the depths of his Spirit Beast Space, the huge “light cocoon” enveloping the Alien Queen suddenly sent out a violent tremor that almost tore space apart!
A will far older and more violent than these two Xenomorphs, like a sleeping abyssal beast awakened, carried a hint of... excitement?
“Is the Queen about to awaken?”
Lin Feng immediately split a wisp of consciousness and sank it into the Spirit Beast Space.
Inside the Spirit Beast Space, the scene was horrifying!
The huge light cocoon no longer quietly emitted a soft glow, but pulsed, expanded, and contracted frantically, like an out-of-control stellar core!
The light on its surface was no longer a single color or a few colors, but countless runes representing different rule powers flickered, flowed, collided, and merged wildly!
The speed was too fast for the naked eye to capture, forming a chaotic, colorful halo that seemed to devour the soul!
Inside the light cocoon, the Alien Queen's massive and ferocious outline shimmered in and out of view, her mental fluctuations like boiling magma, filled with pain, longing, and a kind of... almost greedy hunger!
Lin Feng clearly “saw” that through the invisible mental network covering the entire Xenomorph species, countless energy streams, thin as gossamer yet containing various rule fragments, were being forcibly extracted from the 146 Xenomorphs that had just completed their evolution in the testing ground, crossing space, and continuously pouring into the light cocoon!
Especially the newly condensed core powers of rules representing Space Cutting and Annihilation & Decay from the Lie Kong Blade Wing Alien and the Abyssal Poison Earth-Rending Alien were given special “attention”!
Although their own cores were not shaken, Lin Feng could feel that the most refined part of the rule origin that had just completed evolution and was radiating from their bodies was being frantically seized by an invisible force!
The Alien Queen's aura was becoming deeper and more vast at an unimaginable speed!
As if a bottomless abyss was frantically devouring all the “nutrients” brought by the evolution of its offspring, making its final, and most insane, accumulation for its own emergence from the cocoon!
“It's... absorbing the evolutionary achievements of every Xenomorph in the Xenomorph Legion? Absorbing those rule fragments through the species' mental network?”
A storm surged in Lin Feng's heart.
This extremely domineering method of evolution, using the entire species as its own nourishment, sent a chill down his spine.
At the same time, his heart was filled with incomparable excitement!
The Alien Queen always gave him unexpected surprises!
What kind of existence would it be when it emerged from its cocoon?!
Lin Feng was already eagerly anticipating the moment the Alien Queen awakened!
His consciousness fully returned to reality, and the sight before him made him narrow his eyes slightly.
He had no reluctance whatsoever, raising his hand, he communicated with the Spirit Beast Space with his mind, preparing to recall all the transformed Xenomorph Legion.
“Wait! Lin Feng! Please wait!”
A hoarse, desperate, and broken voice suddenly rang out, carrying a frantic, reckless urgency!
Lin Feng's movement paused, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
He thought that after witnessing the terrifying power of the Xenomorphs, Chen Xuantong had finally lost his patience and was about to make a move against him!
His internal energy circulated secretly, and his mental power instantly locked onto Chen Xuantong's position, preparing to deal with any possible attack.
However, the next scene stunned everyone, including Lin Feng.
Chen Xuantong, the highly respected director of the Alliance Research Institute, who always paid attention to his appearance, now completely disregarded his image and scrambled down from the high platform!
His white lab coat was torn in several places by the energy turbulence, his hair was disheveled, his glasses askew, and his face was flushed with un fading ecstasy and extreme craving.
He completely ignored the cracked floor and the lingering energy turbulence beneath his feet, rushing to Lin Feng's front with the fastest speed he had ever achieved, stumbling and staggering.
To everyone's astonishment, Chen Xuantong directly reached out and firmly gripped Lin Feng's shoulders!
