Russell bent down to pick up the power sword that Geza had dropped on the ground, and played with it casually, saying, "I was originally planning to go to the Stone Monastery to discuss something with the Chapter Master of your Dark Angels, but when I passed by this galaxy, I saw the Dimension Anchor of the Boundary Breaker, so I came down to check the situation."

"As far as I know, the Boundary Breaker's extra-dimensional portal should be near Baal, and the Krenna Sector is at the entrance of the Eye of Terror. The expansion of the high-dimensional invasion is too fast..." Russell smiled bitterly and shook his head, not knowing whether to say that the Boundary Breaker is too powerful or the Human Empire is too weak.

"Boundary Breaker? Dimension Anchor?" Gaiza's thoughts raced, and he quickly connected Russell's words with the terrifying enemy he had encountered before: "Dimension Anchor, does it refer to the illusory existence that looks like a space jellyfish and is entrenched in the center of the Fluorescent Sulphur Galaxy?"

"Breakers... So those monsters are called Breakers? They came here from Baal?"

For a moment, Geza was shocked.

"Oh? It seems that you have fought with the ground forces of the Boundary Breaker, and you can still survive... Interesting." Russell immediately became interested, and then the Baptist held Geza's head with one hand.

"I use my psychic power to connect with your consciousness. You answer whatever I ask. Do you understand?"

“Understood…” Geza responded in a low voice, his voice weak.

"First, tell me why the Dark Angel came here..."

After several rounds of questions and answers, Russell basically understood the situation here.

Two years ago, when the Dark Angels were on their way to rescue Pluto, they received a message from Hive City asking for help. Chaos demons had invaded the planet and were slaughtering people in the depths of the Great Rift.

Due to the strategic importance of the Sulfur Crystals, the Dark Angels extended a helping hand. Geza's entire company, along with the temporarily assembled naval fleet and mortal auxiliary forces, came together to fight against the Chaos Demons in the Great Rift.

The Stone Monastery continues to the Pluto.

The mission of Geza's team is to defend the base of Space Elevator No. 2. Once the space elevator is destroyed, the supply chain of sulfur fluorescent crystals will be at risk of being broken, which will cause huge losses to the war zone around the Eye of Terror.

The Dark Angels are brave warriors who set up a defense around the base of the space elevator and engage in brutal fighting with cultists and Chaos Daemons.

The battle lasted for nearly a year, and the situation became a stalemate. Geza's company was waiting for the support of the stone, and the cultists were also slaughtering mortals to summon more demons.

At this moment, something strange happened.

"We lost contact with the fleet in orbit. There was no warning. All the ships seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. There was no sound and they no longer responded to our signals..."

Geza's tone was filled with fear: "Then, the demons began to flee. We didn't launch any attacks, but the demons were fleeing, like sheep being targeted by wolves..."

"No matter if they were brutal bloodletters or corrupted plague bearers, they were all screaming and fleeing. The whispers in the warp space were silenced, replaced by deep fear. The senior think tank told me that they were the natural enemies of demons..."

"Then I saw it. I saw the existence of 'the one'."

Geza closed his eyes in pain, unwilling to continue recalling. But through the connection of consciousness, Russell saw what he saw.

The originally immortal demons were driven, chased, hunted, and devoured like lost lambs... A kind of strange creatures without a fixed shape suddenly appeared in the Great Rift Valley. Their bodies were blurry and illusory, and were out of tune with everything around them.

Their existence itself is a conflict, just like using photo editing software to forcibly photoshop a bunch of things with completely inconsistent styles here. They do not belong to this universe, but they can devour everything in this universe.

Their name is - Boundary Breakers.

Chapter 212 Information and Energy

After listening to Gezza's narration, Russell disconnected from his consciousness.

"I have to say, you guys are really lucky," Russell said.

Gaiza said he couldn't understand it at all. The Hive was attacked by such a terrifying monster from another dimension. The fleet in orbit evaporated, the ground troops suffered heavy casualties, and even the Chaos Demons were killed. But the Star-Bullet said that this was good luck? That was too absurd.

"It's indeed good, compared to other planets visited by the Boundary Breakers."

Russell returned the power sword to Gaiza, shook his head and said, "Listen, the Boundary Breakers usually don't send ground troops to land on planets. They feed on energy and can use matter decomposers to distort the laws of physics and convert matter into edible energy. This is also the reason why your fleet disappeared into thin air. They were all decomposed and devoured.

To the Boundary Breakers, the armor on the ship, the stones on the ground, the flesh and blood of organic life... are actually no different in nature. Do you understand what this means? It means that the Boundary Breakers' fleet does not need to conduct any landing operations at all. They only need to stay in space to decompose the matter of the entire planet and eat up a world completely."

Gaiza panted weakly, "If it's true, why would the Boundary Breakers send ground troops to fight? We don't have space forces anymore. They only need to stay out of orbit to decompose the planet, right?"

"You're right, but the Boundary Breakers feed on energy, and matter itself is not their food. If there is ready-made food, cooking is always the second option." Russell said, turned and left the mine where Gezza was hiding, leaving him slumped there in confusion.

"Energy?" Gaiza recalled the words of the Star Bullet. Suddenly, a terrifying thought flashed through his mind:

"chaos……"

With his powerful psychic powers, Russell pushed the performance of the Apostle Armor to its limit, charging through the toxic exhaust gas without hiding his momentum, completely ignoring the ruins of the rift valley with lava flowing in the walls and the imperial soldiers who were hiding in the ruined positions and struggling to survive.

"Did you see anything? Something just passed by?"

No, I can't open my eyes. Do you think my soul will be accepted by the Golden Throne if I die here?"

"Of course he will. The Emperor loves everyone in the universe equally."

"But I couldn't even kill a single enemy. My death is worthless..."

An Imperial Guardsman who lost his left hand and half of his face lay in a trench, trying to keep his last eye open. Life was the currency of the Emperor, but he failed to use it well. Because of his blindness, he couldn't even do things like scouting for his comrades.

Then with a bang, he could scout without using his eyes.

That was the sound of the Baptist mobile armor breaking through the wall and crashing directly from one mine into another. Time was running out, so Russell chose to take a shortcut.

Even without using any weapons, the mass and molecular density of the zero-element armor alone, once the speed increases, can have a terrifying killing power that is not inferior to any thermal weapon, and it is no problem to smash rocks and steel fortresses. If you take the conventional route, you will need to go around for 20 minutes longer.

On the way forward, Russell did not activate the Baptist's built-in detector. Instead, the extra things would interfere with his vision. The Star-Bomber's eyes are the eyes of truth that can see through numerous barriers.

He could see that the originally entangled threads were rapidly dissolving, and the fate that was entangled into a dead knot had not been untied, nor would it be untied, but was forcibly cut off by another extraordinary force. Without a doubt, it was the Boundary Breaker, the alien.

"They ate so fast. By the time I had spoken to Geza, there was almost no trace of demons in the Great Rift Valley. Even the machines infected with the Geller Iron Plague were eaten up... Only in the No. 863 mine ahead were there some remaining Chaos Threads."

"How pitiful! The Chaos Demons that used to indulge themselves have now become pathless lambs that are cornered and trembling with fear by the Boundary Breakers."

It’s getting closer, the last thread of chaos is already within sight.

Russell stopped his inner whispering and used the psychic spell taught by Magnus to hide the trace of the Apostle Armor. He carefully approached the No. 863 mine, which was devastated by armored firepower. An abandoned drilling rig could be seen next to it.

"Warm" magma was flowing at the bottom of the dark mine. The dark environment did not affect Russell's vision. He leaned against an abandoned drilling rig and looked down. He saw a Plaguebearer with a single horn on its head, covered with pus and infested with Nurgle flies, curled up at the bottom of the pit.

A burly, fiery-skinned Khorne gladiator was hugging the Plague Bearer. One of its horns was broken, and its hooves were bleeding. A rumbling chainsaw axe fell beside it, but the Khorne gladiator no longer had the courage to pick up the weapon.

Because in front of the two demons, near the bottom of the pit, there was a ball of jumping garbled code crawling.

It was literally gibberish, a bunch of meaningless geometric blocks put together, jumping randomly without any pattern. It did not emit light or reflect light, and had no physical properties to speak of, but the naked eyes of both demons and mortals could actually "see" it.

The brain of intelligent creatures cannot understand its existence. It is a high-dimensional life that exists in the form of information. It is a boundary breaker.

Nurgle's Plaguebearers and Khorne's Gladiators screamed, scratched, trembled, and hugged each other and cried bitterly, but the only difference was that the Plaguebearers shed pus and the gladiators shed fire. They were so miserable that they didn't have even a trace of courage to resist.

"Why is there only one Boundary Breaker? Have the others eaten their fill and left?"

Russell squatted outside Mine No. 863, watching the scene with interest. He had no intention of exposing himself and interfering in the hunt.

Although squatting outside and peeping at people eating might seem like a pervert, there weren't many opportunities to closely observe the process of the Boundary Breaker devouring the Chaos Demon, and perhaps I could gather some useful information.

"The Boundary Breakers are high-dimensional creatures that exist in the form of information. They feed on energy to maintain their own existence..." Russell watched coldly as the mass of human-shaped garbled code moved vaguely in front of the gladiator's horse's hooves and began to decompose its red flesh and blood in some unknown way.

"According to my understanding of the Warp, each demon from the Four Gods camp is a fragment of the corresponding evil god. The real body of the demon cannot actually come to the real universe. The power of the High Heaven can only be displayed in places where reality and illusion overlap, such as the Eye of Terror or the Maelstrom."

"Similarly, because demons do not come to the real universe in their true form, they cannot be killed by conventional means. Only by piercing the veil and damaging their subspace essence can they be truly killed, such as the Emperor's flames and the anti-psychic nature of the Untouchables..."

In Pit No. 1, humanoid chaos had spread from the gladiator's horse hooves to the abscesses on the plague bearer's body.

"The subspace is an abyssal dimension made of pure energy. The evil god is a spiritual entity formed by a huge amount of emotional energy. The devil is also a single concept that exists in the form of energy, but it is one level lower... High-dimensional creatures that exist in the form of information naturally restrain devils. But, if you can't beat them, why don't you run away?"

Russell found it a little strange to see the Plaguebearer and the Gladiator struggling and wailing in despair at the bottom of the pit, being swallowed up without any resistance.

Demons should be able to return to the subspace at any time. How can they just stand there and get eaten when they encounter their natural enemies?

"Could it be that these demons were frightened when they saw the Boundary Breaker for the first time? Or is it that it's not that they don't want to, but... they can't? They simply can't return to the subspace?"

A flash of inspiration passed through Russell's mind, and he vaguely felt that he seemed to have grasped the truth.

At the bottom of the pit, the fiery red gladiator and the rotten green plague bearer had disappeared, leaving only a vague human-shaped block of color. The two demons had become food to sustain the existence of this information.

The group exploded, and the threshold for joining new groups is high.

Chapter 213 Breaking the Boundary and Leaving

After the Plaguebearers and Gladiators in Mine No. 1 were devoured, there was not a single demon left on Hive No. 2.

But what surprised Russell was that after eating all the demons, the Boundary Breaker did not disappear.

The humanoid figure at the bottom of the pit stood there for a moment, then moved horizontally towards Russell's location.

"It discovered me? The psychic invisibility spell is ineffective against the Boundary Breaker?" Russell frowned slightly, and after a moment of confusion, he understood the reason.

It takes psionic power to cast an invisibility spell. Psionic spells can be used to deceive human detectors or the eyes of demons, but for the Boundary Breakers, using psionic spells to hide themselves is like covering their bodies with a layer of soft and sweet marshmallows.

After realizing this, Russell no longer maintained the spell of concealment and appeared beside the wreckage of the drilling rig. Two electromagnetic pulses burst out from the shoulders of the Apostle mech, shooting towards the humanoid code that was moving sideways.

At the moment when the body was about to be pierced by the electromagnetic pulse, the meaningless geometric block disappeared in front of Russell.

Disappeared, reappeared, in less than a second, the Boundary Breaker was already in front of Russell.

"Ethereal..." Russell stepped back a few meters, putting some distance between himself and the human-shaped block of color.

Since coming to this universe, he has always been the one to restrain chaos. This is the first time that Russell has experienced the feeling of being restrained.

"Higher-dimensional creatures can ignore invisibility spells. Their existence in the form of information and their illusory nature allow them to ignore most conventional attacks. Can this be said to be worthy of being one of the three great natural disasters?" Russell's thoughts turned in his mind, but he was not thinking about how to deal with the Boundary Breaker in front of him. That would not be difficult for him.

The Boundary Breaker feeds on energy, but this does not mean that it is immune to all energy attacks. On the contrary, its existence itself becomes more vulnerable because of this.

Russell retracted the Baptist's weapon system, raised his hand slightly, and a bright white ring appeared behind him.

That is the sea of ​​souls drawn by the void, a psychic accretion disk formed by the siphon effect. Its existence itself means endless energy.

"If an entire fleet of Eraser-class Scourge fleets came at me, I would still have a headache, but you are alone." Russell smiled slightly, and the white ring behind him tilted forward, pouring out surging waves of the subspace: "Can you eat me?"

The answer is of course no.

Without any suspense or reversal, the last Boundary Breaker in Mine No. 863 was submerged in the subspace turbulence caused by Russell, as easy as drowning a mouse in an oil jar.

After killing the Boundary Breaker, Russell did not stay in the No. 1 Nest City for too long, as he had already collected the information he wanted.

The Baptist's built-in communication system received a signal from Grey Wind, indicating that she had completed her reconnaissance mission and returned to the Sulfur Fluorescent Galaxy.

Back in the hull of the Grey Goo mothership, Russell had just taken off his heavy armor in the hangar when the excited Grey Wind came to greet him happily, his talking eyes seemed to be saying "so what, so what", looking very proud.

Russell wanted to say that the armor you made was useless. It had little defense against the Boundary Breaker. It would only rely on psychic power. But seeing Huifeng's face, which looked like he wanted to be praised, he didn't say anything to pour cold water on him.

Climbing out of the Baptist's open breastplate, Russell reached out and gently rubbed Gray Wind's head: "How is the situation around here?"

Gray Wind narrowed his eyes and gently rubbed Russell's palm with his head, saying softly: "I just jumped through most of the inhabited star systems in the Krenna sector and found something strange."

"How to say?"

"Well...how should I put it?" Grey Wind reluctantly moved his head away from Russell's palm and disintegrated his left hand into a nanorobot.

Then, a holographic star map projection was presented in front of Russell.
