Chapter 572 Ashes and Walls
Jemin stood at the edge of the barrier that had been set up in the camp, his hands waving out continuously.
Twisted gray beams shot out from his fingertips, precisely penetrating the information creatures that were surrounded and divided by the high-level wizards using information weaving.
Witchcraft: Painful Gibberish.
With each strike of the gray light, the outer energy of an information creature convulsed violently, its core information fluctuated wildly, and then... it collapsed. The blue entropy brain separated from the disintegrating light cluster and was collected by the wizard who was already prepared nearby.
The wizards had almost streamlined their actions from killing to collecting entropy brains into an assembly line, with astonishing efficiency.
But Jemin soon realized something was wrong.
"These guys... they've gotten tougher."
He frowned, staring at an information creature struggling in the distance.
The information creature had just been hit by an information plague released by a high-level wizard, but it did not immediately crash as before.
Although it was eventually defeated by subsequent attacks, its resistance was completely different from before.
"They have evolved isolation mechanisms."
The voice of a level seven wizard came from beside me.
While maintaining the information weaving process, the powerful figure said in a deep voice, "Based on the analysis, these guys probably censor all incoming information. The effectiveness of those information plague spells has clearly decreased."
Jemin nodded, understanding dawning on him.
Information organisms have an incredibly strong ability to adapt.
How long has it been since the last virus outbreak?
They have already evolved specific defense mechanisms.
Trying to infect them with the same information plague now would be difficult unless a completely new variant is developed.
"but……"
Jemin looked at the information creatures that were being divided and surrounded, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
Although firewalls are in place, their response speed has noticeably slowed down.
Having to review every piece of incoming information means a decrease in processing speed.
The computing power that could originally be mobilized instantly now needs to be filtered, analyzed, and then dealt with.
Those previously smooth network connections are now experiencing noticeable lag.
For high-level wizards, this slight lag is sufficient.
"continue!"
With a series of swift movements, Jemin unleashed over a dozen more streams of garbled, painful code.
The battle continued.
One after another, information beings were killed and transformed into blue entropy brains.
The areas that are divided and surrounded are getting smaller and smaller, and the number of information beings is decreasing at a visible rate.
Then, Jemin sensed something was wrong.
It's not that something is amiss on this battlefield, but rather on another "battlefield".
He suddenly looked up and gazed into the distance.
There, Martin's battle with the Silent Abyss continues.
But at this moment, the scene in that area has completely changed.
The originally pure white sea of light disappeared, replaced by a distorted grayish-white.
Countless flames burned in the void, but they were not red; they were gray.
It was a pale gray, a gray that made one's heart tremble.
"That is..."
Jemin's pupils constricted slightly.
Martin's laughter came from that direction, echoing throughout the entire plane.
"Hahaha...Good! Very good!"
His voice was filled with undisguised elation, "Having blocked so many of my attacks, you've earned my right to take you seriously!"
In the distance, the silent abyss, hundreds of meters high, is now operating at full capacity.
Its body surface flowed with a blinding white light, and countless information tentacles extended from it, connecting to every surviving node deep within the plane. It was mobilizing the power of the entire plane.
No, not only that.
Jemin saw countless distorted energies surging into the dimensional barrier of the information plane—the power of the endless chaotic void! Those originally disordered, chaotic, and violent void energies were forcibly gathered and integrated by the Silent Abyss, becoming ordered, and then merging into itself. Because it sensed danger.
Martin raised his right hand, and the surrounding grayish-white flames quickly gathered towards his palm.
A gray light was gathering in his palm.
The light was very faint, like a candle flickering in the wind, and could be extinguished at any moment.
But after just one glance, Jemin felt his mind tremble.
That wasn't an ordinary flame; it was something he couldn't comprehend!
Do you know why they call me "Heart of Ashes"?
Martin's voice was calm, as if he were chatting casually.
The silent abyss offered no answer, nor would it ever answer.
It simply frantically gathered its power, constructing layer upon layer of defensive barriers in front of itself.
Martin smiled.
"Because I can turn everything to ashes."
He pushed forward with his right hand.
The gray light flew away.
very slow.
It was so slow that Jemin felt he could clearly see its flight path.
But wherever that trajectory passed, everything collapsed.
Space is collapsing, and time is in chaos.
The once stable spatial structures shattered like broken glass the instant the gray light swept past, turning into countless tiny fragments. Before those fragments could even disperse, they were ignited by the gray flames and burned into nothingness.
The flow of time in that area began to become wildly erratic, sometimes as fast as lightning, sometimes as slow as stillness.
Those things swept up in the turbulent flow of time even had light distorted into bizarre shapes.
The barriers erected in the silent abyss crumbled one after another.
The information barrier was burned through, and the energy barrier was ignited.
The silent abyss is roaring.
It mobilized all available power, frantically drawing upon void energy from beyond the plane to construct a final line of defense in front of itself. This ultimate barrier, formed from most of its core information, was almost its entire life force.
Then, the gray light collided with it.
And so, the colossal giant of light began to vanish silently.
The ultimate barrier began to "disappear" the moment it came into contact with the gray light.
The entire barrier was erased from existence, as if it had never existed at all.
The body of the Silent Abyss began to disintegrate.
Its hundred-meter-tall body gradually turned to ashes from the point of contact.
Finally, the gray light pierced through its core.
The speed at which the Silent Abyss collapsed suddenly accelerated.
In just a few seconds, that terrifying being, capable of mobilizing the power of the entire plane, completely vanished into the gray ashes.
Nothing was left behind.
They don't even have an entropy brain.
Jemin looked in that direction, speechless for a moment.
He just...died like that?
That being who could mobilize the power of the entire plane was wiped out in one move?
But the next second, he froze.
Because that gray flame did not stop after it had annihilated the Silent Abyss.
It continues to move forward, advancing into the depths of the information plane.
"Is this going to break through to the next dimension?"
Just as Jemin was thinking this, the situation changed.
The gray flame suddenly stopped just before it touched the core area of the information plane.
Then, a wall rose up.
Or rather, it is a... pure "nothingness".
It lies between the gray flames and the core of the information plane, completely black, without any light, without any fluctuations, and without even a sense of existence.
But it simply exists, isolating everything.
The gray flames struck the wall and vanished without a trace.
Jemin's pupils contracted sharply.
What is that?
He turned to look at Martin.
Martin was also looking at the wall, his brows furrowed slightly.
"interesting……"
He murmured, a hint of surprise in his voice.
"They actually managed to do that?"
