Chapter 207: Calculations by All Parties
The matter of the Troll Star was settled, and Li Yu estimated that the Amethyst Civilization should have reached a rough conclusion on his offer.
Without hesitation, he immediately prepared to ask Kansa, having such a chess piece would be a waste if not used.
Kansa confirmed Li Yu's guess, "They discussed for a long time, but you are a seller's market, unless they have enough time to drag it out, but the Star Empire obviously won't give them that time."
"They even asked Zijing to hand over the mineral core. No matter what, Zijing must get the mineral core in your hand."
Li Yu nodded. Zijing was obviously forced to a certain point, but didn't want to be easily controlled, so she kept dragging it out.
Although they knew that the relationship between Li Yu and Kansa was uncertain, they did not expect that Kansa had completely controlled them and was definitely a traitor.
Kansa added: "However, Sast has been making some moves recently. His people have been frequently contacting Amethyst's top management. I don't know what they are doing. They even found me and talked about some random things. I don't know what their purpose is."
"Sasta..." Li Yu couldn't help but frowning when he heard the name. This guy was in cahoots with Anxing.
Both guys hated him to the core, and he couldn't help but think about it.
But the other party has no idea of his location, which is the only good news, unless Kansa betrays him and locates him by forging his identity.
Thinking of this, he shook his head again. This would do Kansa no good at all. Instead of risking his life to sell him to Sast, it would be better to sell him to the Star Empire.
After being criticized by Li Yu last time, Kansa has become much more honest, perhaps also because the anti-discrimination movement has encountered setbacks.
This kind of anti-discrimination movement is certainly not the first time to appear in the interstellar world. Even if the situation of the Amethyst Civilization is rather special, in the final analysis, it is nothing more than a question of who can stack a higher buff.
You said that I wanted to expel those Amethyst people who did not have Amethyst on their foreheads from their Amethyst hometowns, and I also said that you were raising mermaid slaves.
As various problems accumulated, Kansa felt a little at a loss, and his slightly elated mentality subsided. He asked Li Yu some questions, but was perfunctorily answered by Li Yu.
As expected, when Li Yu was about to jump to the edge of the Star Empire through the Qiushan Hub, the top leaders of Zijing contacted him.
This time, the other party did not go through Kansa as a middleman, but contacted Li Yu directly, which shows that the other party no longer wants to argue and wants to get straight to the point.
The negotiator was a cold-faced purple crystal man, with no expression on his face. "Although your offer is not reasonable, we still decided to accept it. We can discuss the transaction time."
"If I raise the price temporarily now, will you be angry?" Li Yu asked with a smile, making a Schrödinger joke.
If there is a possibility of price increase, then the joke will collapse into reality. If not, then the sentence is just a joke.
The other party remained calm, like a robot: "We will submit your opinions. As for the decision of the higher-ups, I cannot influence it."
"However, I suggest you not do this. The Empire currently does not know that the mine core is in your hands."
When Sast provided the information about the amethyst mine core to the empire, he did not mention Li Yu. Kansa had already told him before.
It is obvious that Sast has his own plans, and I don't know what he is planning.
Everyone hopes that they will be the final winner.
Li Yu stared at him for a long time, and finally laughed: "It's just a joke, why take it seriously."
The Amethyst Civilization, like him, also uses Schrödinger's Amethyst Ore Core. Just hold on for now, maybe the Star Empire won't do anything to them.
If they can hold on, Schrödinger's Amethyst Mine Core will become a real mine core, and they can continue to vigorously develop the Amethyst technology tree.
If they can't hold on, the Amethyst Civilization can just laugh and say, "I'm just kidding. Actually, the Amethyst Core is not in my hands, but in the hands of your wanted criminal. Go ask him for it."
By then, this piece of mineral core might end up in Li Yu's hands, and it would be difficult to sell it at a suitable price, so it would be most appropriate to sell it to the Amethyst Civilization now.
"Okay, your ore core weighs 426 grams. According to your price, it should be 51.12 billion star coins." The other party said programmatically:
"Are you preparing a Black Hole Bank transaction or a bank transaction from another civilization?"
"Black Hole Bank." Li Yu naturally chose the anonymous black hole bank.
"Okay, the transaction location is set to be ten days later, at the border of Amethyst and Star Empire - the desolate planetary belt in southern Thailand. What do you think?"
Li Yu's eyes flickered when he heard this, and he smiled warmly: "This... is not a good idea."
Are you kidding? The other party has set up an ambush in a certain place. What if two A-level burly guys suddenly jump out? Wouldn't it be a complete disaster?
The other party's expression finally showed a slight ripple, and he explained: "We know your concerns, but we hope that this matter can be concluded safely even more than you do."
"I hope this ends safely, and I'm not just saying that..." Li Yu flipped through the holographic screen, and a lot of news flashed by: "You are the famous Amethyst Civilization, and I'm just a small wanted criminal. There's nothing wrong with being cautious."
"How about this, let's set it in the Barot Civilization - Pisces Galaxy."
Barot Civilization - a large civilization not far from the Amethyst Civilization, a member of the civilization alliance system, and has had many frictions and conflicts with the Amethyst Civilization.
Simply put, this civilization has a grudge against the Amethyst civilization.
It would be extremely difficult for the Amethyst Civilization to ambush Li Yu in the Barot Civilization .
"No!" The other party refused directly: "It is difficult for us to enter the territory of the Barot civilization. If we are discovered, it will be a war."
"That's your problem, it has nothing to do with me." Li Yu shook his head: "See you in the Half Fish Galaxy in fifteen days. If you don't come, there will be no need for the deal."
Without giving the other party a chance to speak, Li Yu hung up the phone.
He stared at the star gate in front of him. Fortunately, he was not teleported to the hub on the western edge of the empire, otherwise he would have to teleport back.
The Barot civilization is located in the southwest of the Star Empire. It is not adjacent to it, but it is not far away either. There are several small civilizations with little presence in between.
Adjusting the stargate target and searching for the Star Empire hub closest to Barlotte, the Blazing Light disappeared in the spacecraft.
…
In the Amethyst Civilization, near an unknown galaxy, the Patos main ship has been repaired and has resumed its interstellar navigation.
"…We have followed your instructions and found a way to spread the spores. Most of the top leaders have met with our people, and only a few have ignored us."
In the cabin, Sast listened to his men's reports and waved his hand, asking them to leave.
Then, he looked at Dark Star in the corner, frowned slightly and said, "My people have spread that thing to most of the senior executives as you said. Is it really useful?"
"It won't be a problem. As long as we can confirm it's Li Yu, I can teleport directly over." An Xing's voice fluctuated slightly only when he mentioned Li Yu.
"It is your responsibility to confirm the identity."
Half of his body was hidden in the shadows, and only when he leaned forward slightly could one see the murderous intent in his eyes.
"Don't worry..." Sast sneered, "I deliberately leaked the false news that the Amethyst Mineral Core was in the hands of the Amethyst Civilization to the Star Empire."
"It is to put pressure on the Amethyst Civilization. Unless the Amethyst Emperor can ignore the temptation of the mineral core and directly explain the truth to the Empire, he will only have one choice - to get the mineral core as soon as possible."
"And my brother really didn't let me down."
Sast seemed to have everything under control, showing off his wisdom to Dark Star. If he was facing his subordinates, he would naturally not have such desire.
But the other party is an A-level life form after all, a small group of people standing at the top of the universe.
"For such a major event as purchasing the mineral core, the top leaders of Amethyst will definitely be in charge. When you find that the location of the spores is far away from the Amethyst civilization, it will be time to take action."
Anxing had no interest in praising Sast's plan. He just wanted to crush the guy named Li Yu.
No weak creature could ever tease him three times!
…
Only half a day had passed, and when Li Yu was almost about to leave the territory of the Star Empire, Kansa told Li Yu that Zijing agreed to his request.
Kansa explained in detail: "The person in charge this time is my second brother, Rhodes. He is being trained to be Thaster, but of course he was not Thaster before he was supported by the Empire."
"He has great prestige in the military. He once led a small fleet to defeat several large-scale plundering groups in succession. He also has a good reputation among the people."
"Have you heard of an ambush or something like that..." This is what Li Yu was mainly concerned about.
"No." Kansa explained: "Zijing doesn't want to cause any more trouble. What they want is to get this done as soon as possible."
Li Yu did not comment. Due to the anti-discrimination incident, Kansa was obviously squeezed out of the core senior management. It was difficult for him to get a lot of information, so his words could only be used as a reference.
"There is no moral argument with such a large civilization. Everything must be done according to the worst-case scenario."
After hanging up the call, the hunter gave this warning. He seemed to have suffered greatly and looked very sad.
Li Yu naturally understood this truth. He touched the head of the little loli Keller beside him and squeezed out a few drops of blood from his fingertips.
“Hehe, hehe…”
Keller left with the test tube in his hand and a silly smile on his face. Although Tu Ying's blood smelled good, it had no nutritional value.
"You should train according to Payton's method and pay attention to your body's reaction." Li Yu reminded Tu Ying beside him. Tu Ying nodded silently and was very obedient.
…
Time always passes very quickly during interstellar travel. Ten days later...
In the training room of the Blazing Light, Li Yu was bored watching Keller and Tu Ying fighting each other. It can be simply summarized as:
Tu Ying: Look at my heart-breaking and bone-splitting giant troll hand!
Keller: Back off! Back off! Back off! Back off!
In the training room next to them is a group of superpowers who are having fun all the time. They are really working hard to develop their superpowers. If Li Yu hadn't stopped them occasionally, this group of people would have really lost their lives.
However, the effect is also very obvious, and there are already several people with great potential who have reached the D-level.
Most of them have reached level E, and the first bonus of awakening their superpowers has basically been used up. What remains is just a matter of hard work.
The little Loli Keller also became an E-level life form by relying on krypton blood. Like Tu Ying, her progress is not only extremely fast, but also has huge potential.
Not only can it stimulate the blood in the body of a living organism, but it can also consume the blood to activate some of Tu Ying's bloodline abilities. Perhaps it is because it had previously swallowed Tu Ying's blood.
As a troll, Tu Ying will naturally develop full bloodline abilities as he grows. Of course, he can also develop the power in his bloodline in advance through his own training.
He is naturally extremely eager for strength and is now training very hard.
Everyone is growing vigorously.
Yawning, Li Yu drank a bottle of gene development potion. He felt a familiar burning sensation in his body, and arcs of electricity and magma began to surge around him.
Payton's eyes were burning as he asked, "How did you do it? Why didn't you develop resistance to the genetically developed drugs?"
Li Yu looked at Peyton who looked like a pervert and was speechless.
This is the credit of the No. 1 clone. In the past few days, the No. 1 clone met Bane, one of Batman's archenemies.
Bane is a villain without any powerful background, so the No. 1 clone naturally would not be timid like he was towards Batman, and would directly kill him.
Then the good stuff came out.
[Gain a special physique - Ignore drug resistance: After years of injecting enhanced drugs, the effect is not weakened. Naturally, it is because drug resistance will not be produced.
Your body will no longer easily develop drug resistance. 】
It is because of this physique that the cost-effectiveness of gene development drugs for Li Yu suddenly increased, so he took gene development drugs all day long.
However, Class B gene development potion is really expensive, costing millions of star coins per bottle, which is really too expensive.
However, the effect was also very obvious. He vaguely felt that he was about to leave the B-level and his strength increased significantly.
Unfortunately, this physique has no effect on [Compound No. 5], otherwise he would be able to gain supernatural powers.
In fact, clone No. 1 also received some other rewards, but they were all useless things and not worth mentioning.
The second clone worked honestly as a security guard in the Marvel world, but during that time he was sent out to carry out a mission to assassinate the boss of a terrorist organization.
According to the character of the second clone, he naturally carried out the mission honestly, killed all the enemies, and completed the stealth assassination without being discovered.
[Obtain Purple Title - Lone Wolf - Gold: When facing multiple enemies of the same level, gain a 50% increase in your own strength. ]
A simple title, but not a simple effect. When Li Yu saw this title, he had only one sentence in mind - life is as lonely as snow.
This thing is simply a divine weapon to him. If he had this title on the Troll Star, he would have directly become invincible. Why would he waste time acting stealthily?
When Payton saw Li Yu falling into a trance again, he couldn't help but feel a little resentful, an emotion he had never experienced before.
However, what happened to Li Yu refreshed his cognition again and again, forcing him to stay around Li Yu like a dog.
After all, that was something he had never encountered in his boring aristocratic life.
