Chapter 209: Rhodes’ invitation to join Amethyst?
The transaction time he and the Amethyst Civilization had agreed upon was fifteen days later, but it only took him about ten days to get here.
However, this was also part of his plan. He arrived early to avoid an ambush set up by the Amethyst Civilization in advance.
Tu Ying and Keller were invited by the sergeant to visit Kule City. He didn't know what the purpose of this group of people coming to Half Fish Star was, but he knew that Li Yu and his group must have a complicated background.
Perhaps they can help improve the deteriorating reputation of Half Fish Planet.
Li Yu did not have to wait for five days. On the third day, the radar of the Incandescent Light detected the spacecraft of the Amethyst Civilization.
"How can you be sure that they are from the Amethyst Civilization? Many spaceships have landed here in the past few days." The hunter asked curiously.
Although there is nothing on Half Fish Star, the phrase "special service" still attracts many curious tourists.
It relies more on broadcasts spread by the plunderers to several nearby waterways.
Li Yu did not speak, but directly projected the full view of the spaceship on the holographic screen, and the hunter stopped talking immediately.
Because it is so typical of the Amethyst Civilization, is the purple crystal embedded in the hull of the spacecraft really useful?
Are you really not afraid of being discovered by the Barot civilization?
On the amethyst spaceship, Rhodes stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the approaching Half Fish Star Continent. He was somewhat similar to Kansa, but looked more resolute, wearing tailor-made purple armor.
"Your Highness, he may not accept your invitation," his adjutant reported.
"This is not something you should care about." Rhodes raised his head slightly with a cold look in his eyes.
"Yes." His adjutant immediately lowered his head.
Rhode's eyes flickered. "He is a smart man. There is no benefit in continuing to wander. He needs a force or person that can protect him."
"Your Highness, a high-energy reaction has been detected at the landing site," someone reported, projecting the detection image on the holographic screen.
The white mechanical seat was suspended in the air. The man on it was holding his chin and leaning on the seat handle, looking very bored.
"Is it him?" the adjutant asked in surprise. Although the appearance did not match, he had a hunch that it must be the trading partner - Li Yu.
"It seems he has arrived a long time ago. In this case, the ambush plan may be difficult to implement..." the adjutant frowned.
"It's no big deal. He's alone, so it's not a problem." Rhodes didn't care.
"Tu Ying is addicted to killing. This is already the 31st plundering team." Li Yu listened to Xiao Chaonao's report, his fingers tapping on the mechanical seat.
In just three days, Tu Ying killed no less than a thousand Banyu natives, all of whom were the ones who often plundered the property of interstellar travelers, in order to vent his anger.
This caused quite a panic on the Half Fish Star, and even the indigenous predators formed an alliance to try to encircle and wipe out Tu Ying.
A shadow was cast in the sky, and the amethyst spaceship slowly landed not far from Li Yu. Several teams of indigenous predators had already groped over, trying to take advantage of the situation.
Buzz—the air pump popped open, the hatch slid down, and Rhodes walked out with a group of Amethyst people.
Li Yu's fingers tapped on the seat regularly, making crisp sounds. His eyes met Rhodes's, but no sparks flew.
"Li Yu?" Rhodes seemed to be asking a question, but in fact it was affirmation. The Amethyst man behind him looked alert and stared at the lazy Li Yu.
"It's me. Did you bring the money?" Li Yu held his chin and yawned. The bright sunshine made him sleepy.
Four B-level life forms stood behind Rhodes without saying a word. This number was enough to make Li Yu alert.
Seeing him like this, Rhodes narrowed his eyes slightly, and the purple crystal on his forehead flickered slightly. The adjutant behind him took a step forward and projected a holographic screen. In the black hole bank account, a series of zeros appeared after the number "511".
"Where is what we want?" the adjutant asked in a deep voice.
Li Yu took out the amethyst core from his arms like a magic trick and weighed it in his hand like a brick. The crystal clear core reflected bright light in the sunlight.
The moment they saw the core of the mine, all the Amethyst people looked over there. Rhodes' pupils contracted, and the armor's built-in system scanned the core of the mine from a distance and obtained a series of data.
"Has this ore core been cut?" The Amethyst Civilization got its start by relying on the characteristics of the ore core, and they are extremely familiar with it.
The data from several sections are sufficient to prove that this is a cut mineral core.
This illustrates the fact that this is not a complete mineral core, which is beyond the expectations of the Amethyst Civilization.
"Guess..." Li Yu did not comment and did not give a clear answer.
The atmosphere was a little quiet for a while. The money and the things had been brought, but how to do the transaction next?
Not far away, several teams of indigenous predators approached stealthily to observe.
"Boss, what are they doing? What is that purple glowing thing?" someone asked in a low voice.
The boss's eyes were full of greed: "It must be something good, let's snatch it from him later."
Li Yu and Rhodes both discovered the indigenous predators nearby, but were too lazy to pay attention to them for the time being.
"How about this, I'll put the core of the ore in the middle, you transfer the money to me, and then you can take it, okay?"
Li Yu suggested that there was a crisis of trust between the two parties and there was nothing that could be done about it.
"Okay." Rhodes nodded and agreed to the proposal.
Li Yu wanted to sell the core of the mine, but it was not easy to find a sucker like the Amethyst Civilization, and Amethyst also had to get the core of the mine, so both sides did not want any problems in this matter.
The amethyst ore core was put down, Li Yu stepped back, the star coins arrived, Rhodes got the ore core, and both parties breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Yu joked, "It went much smoother than I thought. I thought you guys would do something weird."
"We don't want anything to go wrong with this matter..." Rhodes shook his head: "But, there is one more thing."
"Oh?" Li Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Rhodes.
"Are you interested in joining us Amethyst?" Rhodes asked.
Hearing this, Li Yu was a little surprised. Inviting him to join Amethyst?
"That's right, you're already on the blacklist of the Star Empire. There's no point in continuing to wander around. You might as well join Amethyst," Rhodes analyzed.
Rhodes' analysis made sense. Due to the wanted list of the Star Empire, although his identity was well hidden, he could not stay in one place for too long.
Li Yu frowned slightly, a little skeptical: "Will you fight against the Xingyao Empire for me?"
"Why do you want to fight against the Star Empire?" Rhode asked, "How would the Star Empire know?"
Li Yu restrained his expression and became indifferent. The Amethyst Civilization had a good plan.
Once I join Amethyst, I will be at the mercy of the other party. Otherwise, they can hand me over to the Star Empire and win the favor of the empire.
"Sorry, not interested."
Rhode frowned and said, "You have extraordinary potential. Continuing to wander is not the life you should live..."
"I said..." Li Yu interrupted Rhodes, his eyes like dead water: "I'm not interested."
Rhodes paused, stopped talking, and stared at Li Yu quietly.
"You have been surrounded. Put down your weapons and wait for your punishment!"
A warning sounded suddenly not far away , which seemed to be a signal.
Bang!
A hole was suddenly created in the ground, and a black shadow rushed to Li Yu in an instant like a meteorite. Its fist wrapped in thick purple crystal hit Li Yu's chest and abdomen heavily.
Terrifying force burst out from the fist.
Boom! !
A blast of air burst out like a shock wave, and Li Yu flew out in a straight line along with the mechanical seat behind him. His momentum was like a cannonball fired from a gun, almost leaving an afterimage.
It quickly flew thousands of meters away, crashed into a hill, and was buried in the collapsed rubble, with dust everywhere.
Rhodes, who knocked Li Yu away, stood at Li Yu's original position, with heavy amethyst armor covering his entire body, looking extremely gorgeous.
The aftermath of the attack caused cracks in the ground, and the indigenous plunderers who were just about to come out to harvest suddenly froze in place, their eyes dull, not daring to move.
Crash——
The rubble pile rolled, and Li Yu jumped out. He had no injuries on his body. With the weakening of the purple crystal light film and the red crystal field, he just felt a little pain.
"This kind of power is somewhat unexpected." Li Yu rubbed the place where he was just bombarded and shook his head: "No matter how much we talk, we still have to fight."
The Amethyst Civilization not only wants the mineral core, but also Li Yu!
Rhodes stopped talking, and a strong purple energy wave ignited all over his body. Like a meteor, he slammed into Li Yu fiercely.
The components of the unknown type of amethyst armor on his body began to move, and the structure became more complicated, as if it had entered combat mode.
Purple-red arcs flashed, and the [Titan Colonial Suit] unfolded, catching Rhodes' fist and instantly releasing an energy shock wave.
A tremendous force came crashing down, and Li Yu's weight and strength were actually no match for Rhodes. He was immediately pushed back quickly, and his legs dug a deep groove in the ground.
This was something he had not expected. Rhodes had not reached the level of an A-class life form, but was still a B-class life form, and was actually slightly stronger than him.
It even surpasses the category of B+, it is ridiculously strong.
"Master, pay attention to the purple crystal on his forehead." Xiao Chaonao reminded. Li Yu frowned slightly and looked carefully. He actually vaguely saw strips of purple energy ribbons.
Amethyst floated out from the forehead of Rhodes's subordinate not far away and merged into him.
How could this be possible? Is it a combination of strengths?
Li Yu thought for a moment, then changed into the purple title he had just obtained - [Lone Wolf]. When facing multiple enemies of the same level, his strength increased by 50%!
This should be considered as multiple enemies of the same level.
In an instant, Li Yu clearly felt a powerful force surging from deep within his body. It seemed as if he had endless strength all over his body, and his strength suddenly skyrocketed!
The backward momentum stopped for a moment, Li Yu dug his feet into the ground, grabbed Rhodes' fist with both hands, followed the opponent's strength, and threw Rhodes backwards with an over-the-shoulder throw!
The moment it left his hand, a circle of sound barrier exploded, and Rhodes was thrown out in a straight line at an extremely fast speed. In the blink of an eye, he became a small dot in the field of vision.
It crashed into the undulating mountains in the distance, causing a cloud of dust to billow out and the ground to shake slightly.
Li Yu did not chase after him, but turned around and killed the other four B-level Amethyst men, cutting off Rhodes' energy source, and he naturally became paralyzed.
But the four B-level life forms were extremely fast and dispersed in the blink of an eye.
Rhodes was wearing a specially made heavy amethyst armor with extremely strong defensive capabilities. He didn't care about shaking off the gravel and dust on his body, and charged forward again to stop Li Yu's attack.
Bang, bang, bang——
On the ground, the two men collided again and again, punching and kicking each other, constantly hitting each other, and shock waves burst out one after another, as if setting off a hurricane.
The aftermath of the battle quickly destroyed the terrain, leaving the area bumpy and full of holes.
Rhodes gathered the strength of other Amethyst people, and his hard power was not weak, but Li Yu's strength was even stronger after layers of enhancement.
"You are really strong. I am going to be serious. I hope you can handle it!"
After fighting for a while, Rhodes' eyes flashed and he suddenly spoke with a hint of excitement in his tone.
The next moment, Rhodes' entire body was suddenly filled with purple light, the purple crystal on his forehead was shining brightly, and his aura rose sharply.
"Can it explode further?" Li Yu's eyes narrowed slightly. No wonder the Amethyst Man with the amethyst on his forehead was so arrogant. This thing has a significant effect.
Bang!
His eyes blurred and the ground in front of him quickly retreated. Li Yu was knocked straight into the sky.
The next second, Rhodes, who was still on the ground, approached in the blink of an eye. His legs wrapped in purple light were like a reamer, cutting towards Li Yu's head with incredible speed and a sharp whistling sound.
Li Yu shrank back, and his whip kick brushed past his helmet, missing it by a hair's breadth, and the scorching wind it brought up hit his face.
The attack missed, and Rhodes clasped his hands, preparing to knock Li Yu to the ground and chase him.
At this moment, endless purple-red arcs blasted towards Rhodes's face.
boom!
Rhodes' attack was interrupted.
Li Yu did not hesitate. He put his arms together, merged his arm armor, and the mechanical structure continued to evolve and merge into a huge electromagnetic gun barrel. He fired an electromagnetic cannon and launched a long-range attack on Rhodes who was rushing up again.
This is an electromagnetic cannon from the suspension seat, and it is quite powerful.
Rhodes had no intention of resisting head-on. Purple flames spurted out from his ribs and he instantly moved sideways a hundred meters. However, something that stunned him happened.
The azure electromagnetic light beam actually turned in mid-air and blasted towards him again, special skill - [Perfect Shot]!
The electromagnetic beam also has tracking function?!
This was the thought that came to Rhodes' mind before the azure light beam covered him.
Boom! A beam of electromagnetic light covered him, creating a small mushroom cloud on the ground and electric arcs spread everywhere.
At the same time, the cursed arrow was shot, but the target was not Rhodes, but one of the four B-level life forms.
The speed of the cursed arrow is invisible to the naked eye, and even if the target moves left and right, it will still have no effect.
It instantly pierced through one of their heads, breaking the purple energy ribbon, and Rhodes' aura in the electromagnetic pit suddenly weakened.
Buzz!
At this moment, Rhodes did not have a chance to react.
Astonishing electric light exploded all over Li Yu's body. The ship-breaking sword wrapped in jumping arcs of electricity came from behind but arrived first, heading downwards, like a flash of lightning, and slashed Rhodes' face first.
Bang!
This knife was like a thunderbolt exploding out of thin air!
The shock wave carrying the electric arc spread far away from under Li Yu's feet, and the ground with a diameter of hundreds of meters began to crack and sink!
As for Rhodes, he was smashed into the ground with smoke and dust rising everywhere.
