Super God: Diary System, but without a brain.

"Something's wrong!" The river-crossing man suddenly stopped, his voice tense. "Quick! Sound the alarm, report to the team—"

Before he could finish speaking, his figure suddenly froze, turning into a crystal-clear ice sculpture, with even the last moment of astonishment on his face clearly visible.

Morgan reacted incredibly quickly, almost instinctively lunging towards the alarm button on his right.

But before his hand even touched the button, a bone-chilling cold had already swept over his entire body.

The next second, he froze on the spot, becoming another ice sculpture. His outstretched arm seemed to still be telling the story of his last moments of obsession before being frozen.

Unfortunately... it was too late.

Inside the warship, the Taotie vanguard members, completely unaware of what was happening on the deck, were still assigning tasks.

"Who will go on the next surface reconnaissance mission?" Yu Ting's gaze swept over the people present.

"Hehe, isn't it our turn this time?" Feng Lei stepped forward first.

Almost simultaneously, the opposing Xiongfeng also stood up.

"I can hardly contain myself any longer; I want to offer up more of my life for my god Karl."

Yu Ting glanced at the two of them, about to nod—

"Captain! Something's wrong!"

A hurried report suddenly came from the direction of the control panel.

Yu Ting frowned and turned his head:

"What happened?"

The speaker was Di Shen, who was in charge of navigation. His hands were flying across the control panel, and his tone was clearly confused.

"The warship is shrouded in a large, unidentified cloud that no external detectors can penetrate. We... have lost real-time monitoring of the outside world."

Yu Ting's brows furrowed even more.

"This is the universe, where did these dark clouds come from? Di Shen, are you out of your mind?" Xiong Feng sneered.

Feng Lei pondered, "Although it looks like dark clouds, since it's appearing in the universe... perhaps it's some kind of unknown phenomenon, or perhaps..."

He paused, lowering his voice:

"Someone did this on purpose."

After a moment's hesitation, Yu Ting quickly made a decision:

"All personnel are on high alert, ready to engage the enemy at any time!"

"yes!"

Di Shen immediately began rapidly tapping on the control panel, and alarms sounded almost simultaneously inside the three warships, their red warning lights casting a somber atmosphere over the cabins.

Yu Ting turned to Xiong Feng and Feng Lei, and gave the order in a deep voice:

"Feng Lei and Xiong Feng, you two will lead a reconnaissance team into that dark fog to find out what's going on."

"yes!"

The wind and thunder responded simultaneously, and the metal combat boots stomped heavily on the floor.

The two turned and quickly headed towards the equipment area, where an elite reconnaissance team of ten men had already assembled.

"Check your equipment. Assemble outside the cabin in thirty seconds." Feng Lei's voice was calm and concise.

Xiongfeng grinned, his eyes gleaming with a warlike light:

"Finally I can move around a bit; I was practically rusting in this tin can."

Thirty seconds later, the airtight door of the launch compartment slowly opened.

Twelve fully armed Taotie warriors stepped into the narrow connecting passage, where the final gate leading to the outer hatch was just ahead.

"Open the hatch," Feng Lei ordered.

The hydraulic system emitted a deep rumble, and the heavy alloy hatch slid open to the sides—

The chill of space rushed in instantly, but what followed was an even more unsettling sense of presence.

The passageway was not filled with the expected pitch-black starry sky, but was instead shrouded in a thick darkness that seemed to absorb all light.

"Damn it, this really does look like a dark cloud..." Feng Lei stared at the thick, churning darkness in front of him and muttered.

The reconnaissance team maintained close formation and slowly penetrated deeper into the cloud formation.

Suddenly, a faint, icy blue light flashed in the darkness.

"Enemy attack!"

Feng Lei reacted extremely quickly, unleashing a barrage of fire from his energy gun towards the light. His teammates behind him immediately followed suit, their concentrated firepower completely covering the area.

After firing for more than twenty seconds, Feng Lei finally raised his hand to signal a ceasefire.

The gunfire stopped abruptly, but all the Taotie warriors still gripped their weapons tightly, watching the scene ahead warily.

Feng Lei slowly stepped forward, his combat boots treading on the silent void—

Then, his pupils suddenly contracted.

Before he could react, a bone-chilling cold swept over his entire body. In the next instant, he was frozen into an ice sculpture.

Before his squad members could even cry out, they too met the same fate.

Xiongfeng reacted the fastest, turning around and trying to flee back the way he came—

Unfortunately, he was still too slow.

Ice crystals entwined his armor like vines, freezing his last struggle within time.

Above the cloud, A-Zhui stared wide-eyed at Su Bai beside her, her mind a little blank.

This... doesn't seem right, does it?

Are you sure he's "not very bright"?

Not only Ah Zhui, but everyone in the live stream was also shocked.

At this moment, Su Bai had wings spread out behind him, half made of crystal-clear ice and half of blazing flames. His face no longer showed his usual simple blankness, but instead a calm and confident smile.

This doesn't look like the demeanor of someone whose soul is damaged and whose mind is like that of a child.

One place, one place, one place?

But they actually misunderstood.

Su Bai appeared this way partly because his soul had somewhat recovered from writing in his diary continuously; as for that smile—

Well, it was Xiaoxue who asked him to "act more handsome".

Su Bai gently exhaled a wisp of icy blue air, his eyes reflecting countless tiny ice crystals.

Ahead, the three Taotie warships were completely shrouded in churning dark clouds. On the outer edge of the clouds, countless ice crystals reflected and refracted each other, forming a huge, dazzling cage.

"world--"

He slowly raised his left hand, his voice calm yet carrying an indescribable penetrating power.

"In my hands."

As soon as he finished speaking, a miniature, blazing, rotating "sun" suddenly appeared in his palm.

Immediately afterwards, a turquoise hurricane roared forth and circled around the sun.

Gray clouds rolled in, casting a chaotic hue over the hurricane.

A crackling sound—azure lightning danced and flashed all around.

Clear water droplets emerged, intertwining and swirling with the leaping electric light.

Finally, scattered ice crystal fragments, like a ring of stars, encircled the outermost layer, slowly rotating.

"This is—"

Su Bai gazed at the miniature wonder in his palm, a harmonious blend of multiple elements, and said softly:

"A gift of parting."

next moment--

The "Rasengan," which combined several elements, trailed an orange-yellow lightning bolt and shot rapidly toward the fleet below in a zigzag trajectory almost like a lightning bolt.

Meanwhile, inside the warship's command center.

Yu Ting discovered that the Wind and Thunder Squad had been out of contact for a long time, and the signal had completely disappeared.

"What's going on? Could there really be enemies lurking in the black fog?"

Without further hesitation, he decisively gave the order:

"Di Shen, order the remaining two warships to coordinate an all-out railgun barrage on the Black Cloud area!"
