Chapter 60

The gravitational pull erupting from the dark depths, like a viscous giant hand reaching out from a primevally frozen abyss, clamped firmly onto the core supporting structure of the Mutant. Teeming with a fundamental law primitive, chaotic, and pure enough to dismantle order, that force dragged it down! Destructive laws collided at the most fundamental level with the order constructed by the greedy will! "Raaargh—!!!" The energy core of the Mutant, covered by a turbid dark-red crystal membrane, emitted a harsh screech of overload. It did not sound like an angry roar, but rather like the metal tearing sound of a precision structure being shattered by brute force on the brink of despair! The moment the Devouring Mycelium Network covering its entire body touched that chaotic gravity originating from the depths of the Umbilical Point, it showed "hesitation" and instinctive revulsion for the very first time! It was not that this power was insufficient to devour, but rather that its inherently chaotic, disorderly, and "existence"-decomposing nature was completely incompatible with the greedy devouring of the Ancient Relic of Deep Space—resembling instead two completely irreconcilable torrents of laws! Repulsion! Intense law repulsion!
