Ch. 280Spinal Cord Lockdown

The players carefully investigated the charred spinal cord and discovered that an unknown will had repeatedly ordered a passage to the brain to be opened. Gu Yuan established a safe receiving point that restored perception beyond the lockdown, but the same command continued to arrive from below.

  • [Someone on the History Book] warned [Tian Ce] that the charred neural tissue was a valuable historical remnant, and the system prohibited players from destroying the lockdown zone.
  • [Tian Ce] organized a cautious investigation as [Thunder King] sent a steady current through the tissue and [Someone on the History Book] activated [Historical Echo].

Ch. 281Fractured Nerves

Gu Yuan isolated contaminated nerves from the Titan’s brain while [Tian Ce] led the players in luring out and destroying the tissue’s control nodes. The spinal-cord section became a safe zone, but the deeper blockade and the source of the repeating command remained unresolved.

  • Gu Yuan maintained a one-way receiving point and sealed off the contaminated nerves from the Titan’s brain as [Tian Ce] ordered the players to use number codes.
  • [Tian Ce] organized the team to bait the twitching nerves with electrically stimulated dead tissue while [Someone on the History Book] withdrew to record the operation.
  • [Brute Force Yields Miracles] and [Dragon Fighting in the Wild] pinned the nerve bundles as [Cloud Pomelo] healed them, and [Thunder King] increased the current to expose the control nodes.

Ch. 287Reclaim Companion Star S-1!

Gu Yuan discovered that S1 could be reclaimed as a vast reserve of spiritual energy, while the players held the white gateway against the Omen of Eternal Night’s Tier Six avatar. After Gu Yuan severed the avatar’s connection to the Silence Transfer Well, the players received a world quest to clear the Umbral Spirit Altars and defend the gateway.

  • [Tian Ce] ordered the seven players to retreat behind the white stone door as the Omen of Eternal Night’s avatar attacked the gateway.
  • Gu Yuan surveyed S1 and realized that breaking its seal and clearing its contamination could turn the Companion Star into an external energy reserve, while the Magic Heart remained too dangerous to touch.
  • Gu Yuan severed the black power linking the avatar to the [Silence Transfer Well], and Darkling altars across S1 began sacrificing nearby living beings to replace the lost energy.
  • The system issued the world quest to reclaim Companion Star S-1, and [Tian Ce] assigned the core seven to guard the gateway while [Great Wall No. 1] and [Lin Ziye] mobilized surface forces.

They saved the beacon and most of the materials, but Flame Poison Golems emerged deeper in the Main Bronchus as airflow resumed.

  • Tian Ce ordered players to prioritize Flame Demon Core fragments, intact burning bones, and valuable weapons while Data Maniac located loot and Vanguard Across the Realm, Thunder King, Brute Force Yields Miracles, and Dragon Fighting in the Wild recovered key items.
  • Data Maniac warned that the inhale was ending, so Tian Ce ordered everyone to retreat toward the forward Biological Beacon before the airflow reversed.
  • The exhale blew back the uncaught materials along with a massive cloud of Corrosive Spores, prompting Tian Ce to order the players to abandon ordinary equipment and protect the beacon.
