Chapter 1223: Chapter 708: One More Second_6 Chapter 1223: Chapter 708: One More Second_6 He couldn’t fathom the spectacle of a cannon, with a barrel made of two hundred million stars, firing.

He also couldn’t imagine the power contained within the Galactic Center if it were unleashed.

In just a few hundred years, a massive stellar system’s gravity source was turned into a weapon.

That was what a well-developed Fourth-class Civilization could accomplish, the essence of leading civilizations.

Even if this Fourth-class Civilization was a puppet, controlled by the Slave Tribe, with the passage of time working in their favor, they would have the advantage.

No matter what ingenious strategies or numerous fleets and soldiers were rushing in to help from outside, everything turned into an illusion, and all became meaningless.

In the face of absolute despair, Nico Ross’ movements became slower and slower, his thinking gradually congealing as if trapped in a swamp.

At that moment, a murmur suddenly came to his mind.

“Eat it.”

Huh?

Nico Ross suddenly snapped back to reality.

What’s going on?

“Eat it.”

The voice rang again, but this time it wasn’t ancient and vicissitudinous, but rather that of a young man.

Nico Ross realized that this was the “prompter” that had been causing static in his thoughts for the past two or three years.

In the past, this “prompter” interfered directly with his thoughts, changing his language organization when communicating with the outside world. This time, however, it exposed its true nature and spoke in a different voice.

Recalling the myriad of chaotic memories in his mind, Nico Ross thought to himself, what on earth is my brain filled with?

“Freddy?”

While recalling his vague memories, Nico Ross subconsciously asked tentatively.

“It’s me.”

“Hisss…”

After receiving an answer, Nico Ross was greatly shocked and asked further, “I don’t know why I know it’s you. But, you were a friend of the sage on a previous timeline in historical records, weren’t you? Why are you here, and what is your connection to me?”

“When you eat it, you will know everything.”

Freddy urged him again.

“Eat what? Where is it?”

“Right in front of you.”

It was then that Nico Ross realized that the colloidal substance that had been continually surging up from the ground earlier had vanished.

In its place was a massive gel-like object crouched on the ground in the corner opposite the pit.

“It looks like a giant Gelasian?”

“Not like, it is.”

“How should I eat it?”

“Forcefully. There’s no time left; Tiffany Bell and Needham Brown can only hold off the Blade Mantis for another minute. You have one minute. Go, pounce on it!”

Although Nico Ross didn’t understand what was happening, he chose to trust the voice in his heart.

He even guessed how this “non-existent person” named Freddy had entered his soul: that simulated training session, the snowflake ship wreckage, and the microscopic termite queen hidden within the wreckage.

It was after that experience when the static began in his mind, and the images of the Morrowind No.2 ship, built by Freddy and the Sage Harrison Clark according to historical records, started to emerge.

“Trust him,” Nico Ross whispered to himself.

He began to charge forward, dodging and changing direction, and continuously giving orders to the barely surviving soldiers to follow him towards the giant Gelasian creature.

He didn’t know what would happen when he headfirst charged into it.

Maybe he would lose control of his armor. In that case, he needed others to buy him time.

Finally, he recklessly slammed into the colloid.

As if waiting for him, the colloid rapidly wrapped around him.

Just as Martha Owen had feared earlier, the underlying laws within the colloid changed the composition of his armor, breaking down the armor structure into its original particles.

In the end, the colloid appeared on the protective layer outside the ultra-micro robot intelligent brain chip that bore his consciousness.

As if it was no big deal, the protective layer was melted away.

Nico Ross’ intelligent brain chip disintegrated in an instant.

In a split second, his consciousness was liberated, floating effortlessly out, becoming an “observer.”
