Lin Ye looked at the three doors before him and, without hesitation, walked toward the crimson Courage Gate.
The moment his hand touched the door, the entire world spun around him.
The next second, he found himself standing in the control room at the heart of Aries.
The familiar alarm blared harshly, red warning lights flashing in the darkness.
"The core is about to explode! Everyone, evacuate immediately!"
Drax's voice came from behind him, making Lin Ye's heart jolt.
He slowly turned around and saw that familiar figure standing before the control console.
The Aries Guardian's face was filled with resolve, both hands gripping the self-destruct device that was about to activate.
"Drax!" Lin Ye rushed toward him.
"I won't let you sacrifice yourself this time!"
He swung the Genesis Star Sword, trying to sever the console's connections.
But the sword light passed through the device without affecting it in the slightest.
"You can't save me." Drax turned his head, a gentle smile in his eyes.
"This is a choice I have to make."
"No! There must be another way!" Lin Ye frantically attacked the surrounding equipment.
But no matter how hard he tried, he could not stop the coming explosion.
Drax activated the self-destruct sequence, and a massive fireball swallowed the entire space.
The scene shifted instantly, and Lin Ye appeared amid the ruins of Alliance Headquarters.
Alyia was surrounded by Void Energy, the golden Gemini Mark flickering in the darkness.
"Alyia! This time, I'll save you!"
Lin Ye charged toward the mass of purple energy, the Genesis Star Sword erupting with dazzling light.
But when the Purification Light touched the Void Energy, the survivors around them suddenly cried out in agony.
His power had instead become a catalyst, making the Void Energy even more violent.
Dozens of civilians
