Chapter 355 The Warning from the Mysterious Voice and a Difficult Choice
Lin Yu's hand hovered above the button. Hearing the mysterious warning voice, his heart clenched, his scalp tingled, and a chill ran down his spine. He quickly looked around, trying to pinpoint the source of the sound, but the control room was empty except for himself.
"Who are you? Why are you stopping me? If the energy collector explodes, the entire universe will face a crisis. I must stabilize it!" Lin Yu shouted into the communication channel, his voice filled with anxiety and vigilance.
"I am the observer who safeguards the balance of this universe. This energy collector is part of an ancient plan. Its explosion is dangerous, but if you stabilize it now, the consequences will be far more severe." The mysterious voice responded calmly, its tone steady yet exuding unquestionable authority.
Lin Yu's brows furrowed into a deep knot, his palms were sweaty, and his hand gripping the control button trembled slightly. Stabilizing the energy collector was his immediate thought, but the warning from the mysterious voice made him hesitate. He knew that every decision he made at this moment concerned the fate of the universe; one wrong step would lead to utter destruction.
"Lin Yu, what happened? What's going on?" Ellie's anxious voice came through the fleet's communication channel, filled with worry.
Lin Yu took a deep breath, trying to calm himself, and briefly informed the fleet members of the warning from the mysterious voice. For a moment, the communication channel fell into a deathly silence; everyone was too shocked by this sudden turn of events to speak.
“We can’t just sit here and wait; we have to do something,” a team member broke the silence, his voice tinged with despair.
“But what can we do? We have no idea whether this mysterious voice is telling the truth or not.” Another team member’s tone was full of confusion.
Lin Yu's mind raced, trying to find a clue in the mysterious voice's words. An ancient plan, even more serious consequences—what did all this mean? He recalled his previous encounters with dark forces and mysterious organizations. Could there be a larger conspiracy hidden behind all this?
"I need more information. You said the stable energy collector will cause more serious consequences. What exactly are those consequences? And who are you? Why are you only showing up now?" Lin Yu pressed on through the communication channel, each question like a heavy hammer blow to the owner of the mysterious voice.
The mysterious voice paused for a moment, seemingly considering whether to reveal more information. Finally, it slowly spoke: "This energy collector was built by an ancient civilization to combat an impending cosmic catastrophe. Its original purpose was to collect free energy in the universe and release it at a critical moment to prevent the disaster. However, this plan was tampered with by the Shadow Council, who intend to use the energy collector's power to rule the universe. If you stabilize it now, the energy collector will become a weapon in the Shadow Council's hands, and at that time, the entire universe will be plunged into endless darkness."
Lin Yu's heart suddenly raced. He hadn't expected that such a complex secret was hidden behind this energy collector. He looked out the window at the wildly surging energy and realized that he was standing at a crossroads of the universe's destiny.
"Then what should we do? Just let the energy collector explode?" Lin Yu's voice was tinged with helplessness.
"No, we still have time. You need to find the core control program of the energy collector and reset it to the settings of an ancient civilization. But this is not easy. The core control program is heavily protected by the Shadow Council, and once the energy collector explodes, you will not have a second chance." The mysterious voice's words were a double-edged sword, bringing both hope and immense pressure.
Lin Yu took a deep breath. He knew this would be an unprecedented challenge. But for the peace and tranquility of the universe, he had no room to back down. He firmly told the fleet members, "We must try, for the universe, for all life."
With the close cooperation of his fleet members, Lin Yu began his arduous exploration. He had to break through the Shadow Council's heavy defenses and locate the core control program to reset it as the energy collector's countdown to explosion neared its end. What dangers would they encounter along the way? Would the Shadow Council become aware of their actions and launch a frenzied attack to obstruct them?
