Chapter 660 The Mystery of the Vortex and Unexpected Help
The roar of the energy vortex grew increasingly deafening, like the howl of an ancient beast, each sound striking the hearts of everyone present. Lin Yu stared intently at the surging light, his mind racing, trying to find a solution. Ellie, meanwhile, was completely focused on operating the detection equipment, her forehead covered in sweat, her fine hair clinging to her cheeks, soaked with perspiration. "This energy composition is too complex; I've never seen anything like it before," she said, her voice trembling slightly, a mixture of tension and fear of the unknown.
"Stay calm, we'll definitely find a way." Lin Yu tried to keep his voice calm as he encouraged his team. As he spoke, he maneuvered the spaceship slowly backward, attempting to escape the powerful gravitational pull. However, the vortex's force seemed to be increasing, and the spaceship's anti-gravity system emitted a whirring sound as it struggled under the strain.
Just as everyone was in trouble, a familiar energy fluctuation came. Lin Yu looked up in surprise and saw the mysterious fleet's ship appear in his field of vision. The mysterious fleet commander's voice came through the communicator: "It seems you're in trouble. Do you need any help?" Lin Yu replied without hesitation: "Thank you so much. We need your support."
The mysterious fleet quickly joined the battle, their ships orbiting the energy vortex and firing beams of special energy. These beams seemed to have some kind of inhibitory effect on the vortex, gradually weakening its initially powerful attraction. Seeing this, Lin Yu immediately seized the opportunity, leading his team to adjust their ship's energy output to coordinate with the mysterious fleet.
With their combined efforts, the rotation speed of the energy vortex gradually slowed down, and the roaring sound also gradually subsided. Taking advantage of this, Ellie increased her probing efforts and finally made a new discovery. "I found it! At the core of this energy vortex, there seems to be a passage to other dimensions, and those abnormal energy fluctuations are coming from that passage!" she exclaimed excitedly.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yu's heart stirred: "Could it be that this is related to our use of the mysterious substance when we sealed 'Dark Erosion'? Perhaps the mysterious substance opened this passage." To verify this conjecture, he decided to lead a small team closer to the core of the energy vortex to investigate.
After learning of Lin Yu's plan, the commander of the mysterious fleet offered to send several elite team members along. "This passage is too dangerous; more help means more security," he said sincerely. Lin Yu nodded gratefully and accepted the offer.
So, Lin Yu, Ellie, Xiao Wang, and the members of the mysterious fleet boarded a specially modified small spaceship and cautiously approached the core of the energy vortex. As they got closer, the pressure increased, and the spaceship's hull creaked and groaned, as if it might be crushed at any moment.
Finally, they arrived at the entrance to the passage. The entrance shimmered with multicolored light, mysterious and dangerous. Lin Yu took a deep breath and stepped into the passage first. The passage was silent, with only a faint light illuminating the path ahead. As they walked, a gigantic figure suddenly appeared ahead.
Upon closer inspection, they saw a creature composed entirely of energy. Its body constantly shifted shape, radiating powerful energy fluctuations. "What is this thing?" Xiao Wang gripped his weapon nervously. The energy creature seemed to sense their arrival, slowly turning its head and sending out a mental wave: "Why have you intruded here?"
Lin Yu mustered his courage and stepped forward, saying, "We've come to seek the truth. This passage is related to 'Dark Eclipse,' and we must unravel its mysteries to prevent an even greater crisis." The energy creature was silent for a moment, then said, "The seal of 'Dark Eclipse' has broken the balance of the universe, and this passage is a product of that imbalance. To restore balance, you must find three Hearts of the Universe and place them at the three key nodes of the passage."
Lin Yu and the others exchanged glances, their hearts filled with doubt. "What is the Heart of the Universe? How do we find it?" Ellie asked. The energy creature no longer answered; its body gradually dissipated, leaving only a single sentence echoing in the passage: "The answer lies deep within the universe..."
