Alien world

Chapter 1581 Chapter 215. Escape and Help

There is no longitude or latitude, and there is complete silence, with only flickering, drifting balls of light, as if even the wrinkles of time have been smoothed out.

Albak's warning would not last long. Even if the soldiers did not actively touch the colored light balls, they would still float over unconsciously and were unavoidable.

As long as you touch it, bizarre fragments of memories and emotions will unfold before your eyes.

The Black Watch Corps is composed of elite soldiers with strong wills, but the light ball of consciousness in the subspace can evoke the most emotionally turbulent memories in their hearts just by touching it.

Albek understood this deeply. Watching the soldiers drifting slowly in the void, some were so excited that their veins were exposed, some were sobbing quietly, and some were clenching their fists... The sound of breathing was swallowed by space, and the beating of heartbeats became the only time scale.
If they cannot leave, all of them will be assimilated into the subspace and become a new projection of consciousness.

But Erlin, the only one with psychic talent, is still in a coma, and it is unknown how long she will take to wake up.

How to escape from the subspace?
Several thoughts came to Albek's mind:
The Warp has no entity and is composed entirely of consciousness. Individually they are stars, and when gathered together they are ribbons. Those bright, dazzling balls of light are projections of the consciousness of powerful beings.

They can approach the ball of light, trigger their consciousness, and allow some powerful beings to discover their existence.

But... the problem is that they can't tell the position of the light ball itself.

Red represents both passion and violence.

Blue represents both wisdom and cunning.

Pink is both emotion and desire.

Green represents both hope and disorder.

Mysterious purple, restless orange, chaotic yellow...

They can only gamble, and they only have one chance.

The second idea was to teleport out, but the little magic power left was not enough to support a group teleportation spell. They could only send out a few people, and the subspace could not be located. No one knew where the other side of the teleportation was - perhaps it was a death place worse than the subspace.

The last step is to awaken Erlin, who possesses the talent of a psychic and may be able to find a way out.

The "Heart of Concentration" on the top of Albek's telepathic communication staff is used to manipulate the magic power of the entire mage corps. The remaining magic power is enough to release one "mental activation spell" and three cross-space teleportation spells.

He checked Erlin's condition and confirmed that she was only unconscious due to mental weakness. He then placed the staff against Erlin's forehead to reduce the damage and released a mental activation spell.

The frown on her face gradually relaxed as she was unconscious, and her eyelashes fluttered as she gradually woke up.

"Wake up—"

She grabbed the collar of the person in front of her and was about to scream, but she relaxed when Albek comforted her with "It's okay, kid, it's under control."

"Erlene, we need you."

Erin glanced around, her eyes passing over the soldiers who were tied up and struggling violently. This was the only thing they could do.

"I... I don't know how to leave either." Erlin said painfully, "I only came into contact with psychic power when I was a child."

"Is that so..." Albek sighed softly.

"Lord Albek, I am willing to give it a try!"

Erlin gritted her teeth, she was the Legion's only hope of escaping the Warp.

Let Albek step back a little, she began to recall her past. Erlin was undoubtedly a lucky girl, she was discovered at a very young age, not only did she have a very high affinity for magic, but also had the talent of a psychic.

Obviously, compared to the unstable psyker, the status of the mage is higher, so the psyker has always been buried deep in her memory, and all she knows is the power that erupts when the psyker's talent awakens.

Erin tried to sense the power. It seemed that because she was in the subspace, she touched what she was looking for almost instantly. Her pupils suddenly expanded into black holes, and she opened her mouth in despair, like a person dying of thirst falling into a lake.

Countless buzzing, whispers, and emotions flooded into her brain, turning her consciousness into a mess.

“No…No—!”

Erin suddenly arched up, her spine making a sound like a broken tree trunk, and she twisted like a cooked shrimp, screaming incoherently.

Albek rushed over, but was still a step too late. In just a few seconds, blood gushed out of Erin's seven orifices. Her eyes, filled with madness, opened wide, like cooled lava, with only sparks that kept disappearing.

"Erlene? Child, can you hear me?"

Albek kept calling out, wiping the blood off her face.

Erin was still breathing, but she was no longer aware of herself.

"It seems that Erlin has failed." With a sigh, Albek handed the person over to the care of the female sorceress.

They have one more chance before the final gamble.

Albek selected a warrior, a wizard, and a confidant respectively, and summoned the last bit of magic to send them out of the warp.

Being in the subspace, unable to locate and lacking guidance, this kind of teleportation is tantamount to suicide... No one knows where they will be sent, but they can only take a gamble.

Three
Albek silently counted the time by the sound of his heartbeat.

The first day, the second day, the third day...

The soldiers' condition was getting worse and worse. Even if they actively avoided the nebula, the ubiquitous consciousness projections of the subspace still began to erode the soldiers' will.

"I killed three more people than you!" Kane screamed and stabbed his companion with a dagger, "Why not me? Why!"

Lucien felt his shield melting, forming a series of pictures: he failed to catch the civilian girl who fell off the cliff, misjudged the retreat route during the ratmen attack, and accidentally killed the captives who begged for mercy. They stood in front of him, whispering: Coward.

Tom's helmet grew lips. When he tried to pry open the helmet with a dagger, the soft coral lips suddenly sprayed peach smoke. The phantom of his dead girlfriend Leah emerged in the smoke, "I'm waiting for you, dear..." Tom was stunned there, and the dagger that pried open the helmet turned into a slashing throat.

On the fifth day, Albek could no longer wait. The prestigious Black Watch Corps was about to die silently in this space without matter.

He had to abandon the warriors who had been assimilated into the warp, who were unconscious or sinking, and float towards the nearest dazzling light with those who still had their own senses.

As long as they find reinforcements, they still have hope.

The warp was filled with dark veils like asphalt, and just as they were about to set sail, a huge nebula of intertwined nebulae floated in the distance.

Its main body is composed of a large area of ​​crimson purple and fluorescent green, and at the edges and depths, there are wisps of attractive peach pink and blue. And at the deepest point, there is a touch of fiery heat like a burning cloud.

These light clusters representing different emotions transition and gradually change between the nebulae, like a picture outside a glass stained by rain, blurring and distorting the outline of a giant spider.

As he passed by, a slight exclamation suddenly sounded in Albek's mind.
