Chapter 721: A Wise Choice
"It's so beautiful..." Bai Zhi said softly.
Jiang Xiaoxiao nodded: "Yes, after going through so much, it's great to see such a view."
Li Yang smiled and looked at the two girls: "Thank you."
Jiang Xiaoxiao and Bai Zhi looked at him in surprise: "Thank us for what?"
Li Yang's eyes turned to the distance again: "Nothing, I just suddenly thought of a lot of things in the past."
"Once upon a time, I also encountered many threats that were more terrifying than [Epidemic]. If it weren't for your support, I might have given up long ago."
Jiang Xiaoxiao patted Li Yang's shoulder gently: "Don't talk nonsense, isn't this a matter of course?"
Bai Zhi also smiled and said: "Yes, no matter what happens, we will be together."
Li Yang took a deep breath and felt the cool breeze in the evening: "Yes... It's good."
"I have seen such a future... No matter what challenges are waiting for us in the future, we will always face it together."
The three smiled at each other, their eyes full of confidence and hope.
The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on them, adding a touch of warmth to the picture.
Although they knew that there might be more unknown threats waiting for them in the future.
But at this moment, they just wanted to enjoy this rare peaceful time.
Because they understood that as long as they were united, there was nothing that could not be overcome.
The night slowly fell, and the stars were dotted.
The lights in the base gradually lit up, illuminating this fortress that guarded the future of mankind.
Li Yang, Jiang Xiaoxiao and Bai Zhi continued to stand on the observation deck, quietly looking into the distance.
The night enveloped the entire base, and the stars dotted the sky, as if telling humans the mysteries of the universe.
Suddenly, a meteor streaked across the sky, instantly lighting up the night sky.
"There is a meteor... How about we make a wish!" Bai Zhi said, smiled gently, closed her eyes and clasped her hands together.
Jiang Xiaoxiao also closed her eyes, and Li Yang looked at them with a smile.
After a moment, Bai Zhi opened her eyes and asked curiously: "What wish did you make?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao shook her head: "I can't say that. Many wishes will not work if they are spoken out."
Just then, Li Yang's communicator suddenly rang.
This is a communication from Tongxuansi.
He frowned and connected it.
"Mr. Shennong!" A hurried voice came, "We have detected abnormal energy fluctuations, and you need to come to the monitoring room immediately..."
"Where are the cooperating gods?" Li Yang frowned slightly and asked.
After getting the answer, his expression instantly became serious, and he slowly replied: "I know, I'll go there right away."
He turned to Jiang Xiaoxiao and Bai Zhi: "The break time is over, come with me."
The three quickly rushed to the monitoring room.
A group of flashing red dots was displayed on the big screen, and the location was a piece of woodland near the base.
"What is this?" Li Yang asked.
A technician replied: "We are not sure... We have never seen this kind of energy fluctuation pattern."
"It seems to be expanding, but there is no obvious entity."
Li Yang pondered for a moment, and then decisively ordered: "Contact Iris and others, and let those gods with power be responsible for the third type of contact."
"Xiaoxiao, you are responsible for coordinating logistical support."
"Baizhi, you go to the scene with me."
The two girls nodded in agreement and acted quickly.
Half an hour later, Li Yang and Baizhi came to the place where the abnormal energy appeared.
There was silence all around, only the rustling sound of the night wind blowing through the grass.
Baizhi stood not far away, looking at the surrounding environment, and felt a little palpitation in her heart:
"I can feel... There is indeed something uncomfortable around, but I still can't see anything abnormal."
Li Yang looked around vigilantly: "Then be careful and stay alert at all times."
Just then, the ground suddenly began to shake violently.
Just as Iris and others arrived, a dazzling beam of light suddenly shot up from the ground.
"Everyone, step back immediately!" Li Yang immediately gave the order, and at the same time waved his hand to summon several huge [high nuts] to form a barrier.
The light column lasted for a few seconds and then disappeared, replaced by a huge sphere flashing blue light.
It was suspended in the air, and the surface was constantly changing with complex geometric patterns.
"This is..." Bai Zhi said in surprise, "Obviously not a product of the blue planet."
At this moment, the sphere suddenly made a strange sound, like some unknown language.
Then, a holographic projection appeared in front of the sphere.
It was a creature that looked like a human, but was covered with strange scales.
It spoke, and the voice sounded directly in everyone's mind:
"Everyone, we come for peace."
"We have detected that your planet is facing a huge crisis, and we are here to provide help."
Li Yang frowned, looked back at the gods behind him, and asked: "Whose family is this, can you take care of it?"
Iris and others looked at each other, obviously they didn't know much about it.
The strange creature on the other side spoke to himself:
"We have detected that your universe is being eroded by a force called [Epidemic]."
"If it is not stopped, the entire universe will fall into eternal darkness."
Li Yang and Bai Zhi looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.
They had just wiped out a group of them, how did these guys of unknown origin find out?
The strange creature spoke slowly:
"You should know that [Epidemic] represents absolute nothingness and destruction, and will devour all matter and energy."
"Our civilization has been fighting [Epidemic] for millions of years, but has never been able to completely eliminate it."
"And now, it has set its sights on your universe."
The strange creature explained: "The erosion of [Void] is slow and hidden... When you notice it, it may be too late."
Li Yang pondered for a moment and asked: "So, how do you plan to help us?"
The strange creature replied: "We can provide you with technology and knowledge to resist [Void]. But in exchange, we need some rare resources on your planet."
Li Yang narrowed his eyes: "What resources?"
"Mainly some special minerals and energy crystals," said the strange creature, "Don't worry, the mining of these resources will not cause any harm to your planet."
There is no doubt that this thing is problematic.
As far as Li Yang knows, the only universe he has come into contact with that fights [Epidemic] is the lingering [Original] universe.
The guy in front of him obviously doesn't match the number.
However, Li Yang still decided to play with it first.
"Okay, we decided to accept your help," Li Yang said to the strange creature, "but we hope to cooperate step by step."
"At the same time, we need to ensure that the process of resource exchange will not cause any harm to our planet."
The strange creature nodded to show its understanding: "A wise decision, we will respect your wishes and gradually cooperate..."
