Yae Sakura's consciousness was far too weak, so the Overlord had no choice but to maintain his consciousness projection at the upper limit of what Yae Sakura could bear.
Otherwise, the shrine maiden's consciousness would be erased directly.
Zerg had already used Psionics to scan this dreamlike space of consciousness—
Yet he had found no trace of Amon.
The enemy was cunning, but it did not matter.
The Swarm was a surging tide, while Amon was merely duckweed!
