Chapter 562

Just as Jie Ming finished speaking, the firmament changed.

The originally gray sky was instantly swallowed by a pure white; that was not any elemental light, but information that was almost materialized.

Countless information poured down like a waterfall, shrouding the entire ship plane.

That white information waterfall kept rolling and surging; Jie Ming only looked up once and felt a stinging pain in his spiritual sea.

"Everyone, prepare for battle!"

The voice of "Heart of Ash" Ma Ding resounded through the world.

But the enemy's attack came too fast.

Jie Ming suddenly felt his body sink—gravity had changed.

The originally normal gravity soared instantly, three times, five times, ten times... almost in the blink of an eye, it rose to over fifty times.

The wizards around frowned one after another, and some low-tier wizards in the Expeditionary Force who were not good at physical strengthening couldn't help but kneel on one knee.

Immediately following was the temperature.

The surrounding air was sometimes as cold as an ice cave, sometimes as hot as a furnace.

The speed of alternating cold and heat was so fast that people couldn't adapt in time, and some low-tier wizards had already started bleeding from their mouths and noses.

Elemental activity was also fluctuating crazily.

Jie Ming could feel that the surrounding fire elements were sometimes as violent as if they were about to explode, sometimes as silent as if they didn't exist at all.

This extreme change made every wizard with a deep connection to elements feel so uncomfortable that they wanted to vomit blood.

But these were just appetizers.

The real killer move was that white pillar of light descending from the sky.

"That is... formatting attack!"

Exclamations from high-tier wizards rang out, clearly recognizing this attack method.

The moment that pillar of light fell, the defensive magic arrays still operating on the periphery of the ship plane melted at a speed visible to the naked eye, like ice and snow under the scorching sun.

Runes disintegrated, nodes shattered, and energy circuits broke.

Those defenses that had been set up with countless efforts were "formatted into blank" in just a few seconds.

Besides this, the most affected were the large elemental pools.

Jie Ming turned his head to look at the east side, his pupils shrinking suddenly.

The protective shield on the surface of the No. 3 elemental pool, which had almost been tampered with before, had completely disappeared at this moment. Inside the pool, countless underlying runes were being read in reverse.

Those runes were originally the core controlling energy output, and at this moment they were being "parsed" bit by bit.

Once the parsing is complete, the opponent only needs to change one parameter slightly, and the entire elemental pool will explode.

The power of that explosion is enough to level half of the ship plane to the ground.

The cannon fodder organisms on the outermost layer were already finished.

Jie Ming saw those elemental puppets freeze in place one after another, and then dissipate into the most basic particles.

Those artificially cultivated war beasts were even more miserable.

Some suddenly exploded, flesh and blood flying; some attacked their companions around them crazily, completely losing control.

Undoubtedly, after losing a large number of companions, the information-based organism legion intends to format the entire plane by manipulating information! "Humph."

A cold snort rang out.

Ma Ding descended from the sky and landed in the center of the altar.

His gray robe remained motionless in the violent energy, and his gray-white short hair didn't even flutter.

He just stood there quietly, looking up at the white waterfall pouring down crazily in the sky, a sneer tugging at the corners of his mouth.

Jie Ming didn't say a word, immediately got up and gave up the core position of the altar.

Not just him, all the wizards on the altar who were not high-tier voluntarily stepped back.

"Start."

Ma Ding said lightly.

A dozen Level 7 wizards nodded simultaneously.

They raised their hands one after another, and beams of light flew out from their respective space equipment.

The first thing to appear was a huge eyeball.

That eyeball was over ten meters in diameter, floating in mid-air, with gray-white sclera and pale golden pupils.

It had no eyelids and just stared straight ahead, with countless fine runes flowing vaguely deep in the pupils.

"Void Magic Eye..." Jie Ming muttered.

He had heard of this thing; it is an extremely rare void organism, with extremely high intelligence and naturally possessing powerful information processing capabilities. Immediately following were more strange organisms.

A creature over a person's height floated out; its appearance was like an exposed brain, with dense tentacles hanging below.

Those tentacles kept wriggling, and every wriggle produced subtle spiritual power fluctuations.

"Brain Monster..."

Another one appeared.

The upper body was a translucent jellyfish, and the lower body was octopus-like tentacles.

Through that layer of transparent outer layer, one could see a dozen human-like brains floating inside it, each beating slowly.

Jie Ming gasped.

He recognized these organisms; it is no exaggeration to say that they are all recognized "high-intelligence races," naturally possessing computing power far exceeding that of humans. The wizard civilization domesticated them just to serve as "biological computing machines" in certain extreme situations.

And the things taken out by those Level 6 wizards were even more direct.

One culture tank after another was taken out and arranged neatly around the altar.

Each culture tank was over a person's height, filled with pale green nutrient solution, and dense nerve tissues were soaked inside. Those tissues were covered with wrinkles and kept wriggling; one look and one knew they were brain organs—and specially modified brain organs, specially used for computing power output.

Jie Ming understood.

This is the true trump card of the Expeditionary Force, a "weapon" specially prepared for computing power duels.

Ma Ding raised his right hand.

From his space equipment, a huge ancient tree emerged slowly.

That tree was a hundred meters tall, and the trunk was so thick that it would take over a dozen people to embrace it. But its branches and leaves were not green, but gray-white. Its bark was not rough wood, but covered with wrinkled cerebral cortex.

The whole tree was composed entirely of brain tissue.

Countless brain sulci were densely distributed on the trunk, branches, and even every "leaf."

Those brain tissues kept wriggling, emitting faint fluorescence; just looking at it made one's scalp tingle.

"Brain Village Tree..."

A wizard exclaimed in a low voice.

Jie Ming was also stunned.

He hadn't even heard of this thing.

But there was one point he could be certain of: the computing power of this tree was probably higher than most wizards present.

Ma Ding stood under the brain tree, his hands slowly spreading out.

"Fate System, connect."

A point of golden light lit up between his brows—that was the access permission Jie Ming gave him.

Through the relay of the altar, the computing power of the Fate System was fully mobilized, merging into one with the brain tree, those biological computing machines, and the spiritual power of all wizards present.

At that moment, Jie Ming perceived a torrent of computing power so vast it was hard to describe.

It was like an invisible giant mountain, standing tall and suppressing everything.

The white information waterfall in the sky also seemed to sense something, pouring down even more crazily.

Ma Ding looked up and sneered.

"Just by relying on you?"

He raised his right hand and pointed upward.

That torrent of computing power, vast to the point of terror, soared into the sky, like an invisible giant sword, piercing straight into the core of the white waterfall.

The outcome was decided the moment the two sides clashed; the white waterfall first stagnated, then began to retreat crazily.

In just a few seconds, the white information waterfall shrouding the entire ship plane was torn to shreds.

Above the firmament, it returned to its original gray darkness.

The environment of the ship plane also stabilized immediately.

From time to time, information-based organisms tried to resurrect and counter-charge, but facing this terrifying information torrent, they were almost erased of their core information the moment they made contact, dissipating into light spots.

"Now, everyone, joint spellcasting!"

Wizard Ma Ding's voice rang out again.

The dozen Level 7 wizards and over a hundred Level 6 wizards who had been waiting for a long time attacked simultaneously.

With the help of that vast computing power, they synchronously cast an information-type spell.

Layers upon layers of chaotic information poured out from their hands, like countless twisted giant pythons, pouncing toward that huge black crack. They entangled and intertwined with each other, finally forming a thick information barrier, sealing the entire Information Plane tightly.

That barrier was not at the energy level, but at the information level.

Any information-based organism attempting to cross this barrier would be polluted by that chaotic information in the first instance.

Ma Ding did not stop.

He formed seals with both hands, and with the power of a Level 8 wizard, added a layer of law blockade outside that chaotic information barrier.

From this moment on, the outer layer of the Information Plane was completely sealed.

If those information-based organisms want to rush out again, they must first break through these two layers of blockade.

And with their current strength, they couldn't do it at all without ten days or half a month.

The sky returned to calm.

The crack above the ship plane still existed, but no more information-based organisms poured out.

Those white rays of light surged crazily on the other side of the crack, but could only hit the blockade layer in vain, failing again and again. Jie Ming stood on the edge of the altar, looking at this scene, unable to speak for a long time.

Undoubtedly, this means in front of him was actually the plan the Expeditionary Force had originally prepared to deal with the information-based organism army.

It's just that "Heart of Ash" Ma Ding, after knowing that he could effectively kill information-based organisms, let him show his hand in order to obtain more war loot and research samples.

"Jie Ming."

Ma Ding's voice came.

Jie Ming came back to his senses and found that Ma Ding had already walked in front of him.

This Level 8 wizard reached out his hand, light flickered in his palm, and over a hundred pale blue crystals appeared in front of Jie Ming.

Those crystals varied in size, the largest being the size of a fist and the smallest being the size of a fingernail.

But inside each one, countless light spots were flowing, emitting faint fluorescence.

It was precisely the core crystals left behind after the information-based organisms died.

"This is your war loot in this battle." Ma Ding said, "Distributed according to contribution, these are yours."

Jie Ming was stunned for a moment, then reacted and took them respectfully.

"Thank you, Senior."

Over a hundred blue crystals were in his hand, heavy.

Ma Ding looked at him, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes.

"Study them well. These things might be more valuable than military merits."

After saying this, he turned and left to deal with post-war matters.

Jie Ming stood in place, looking at the pile of blue crystals in his hand, and then looked up at the pure white sphere blocked in the sky.

He gripped the crystals tightly and turned to walk toward the laboratory.

In the coming days, he will be busy.
