Chapter 252 Dark Star's Proposal
With only a head left, Anxing's emotions were already fluctuating. He was provoked by Liuxing yesterday. This feeling of "ntr" in front of him made him linger all night, making him even more unhappy.
At noon, the dining table was filled with exquisite delicacies. Li Yu sat at the main seat, with Dark Star on the plate next to him, staring at Li Yu who was eating heartily.
"This soft stuff is really good, very smooth in the mouth. I'll take some back when I leave." Li Yu chewed the pale white food and exclaimed in admiration.
He was the only one here, and Daniel was patrolling the periphery to avoid being scared by Dark Star.
“Haha…” An Xing sneered as usual and was about to make a sarcastic remark when his expression suddenly changed drastically. He glanced at Li Yu who was tasting the food and seemed a little hesitant.
Li Yu keenly noticed that something was wrong with Anxing and squinted his eyes. The old man looked wrong and his expression changed too much.
Anxing would not forget that he was right next to her. Such obvious emotional fluctuations must have either meant something really big had happened, or she was deliberately trying to get his attention.
"What's wrong, brother?" Li Yu asked with concern.
An Xing has become immune to Li Yu's address to him, and now he calls him "big brother" all the time. He was ruthless when he attacked him before.
"The person who is responsible for connecting with me has arrived." Anxing said in a deep voice, his eyes flickering.
"?" Li Yu was a little suspicious and glanced at Anxing, who was left with only his head. "Your smart terminal was broken into pieces. How did you know?"
"They have my spores on them." Dark Star said briefly and did not discuss the matter too much. He said, "They are not far from Odos. They should be trying to contact me."
"If they can't contact me, I'm afraid they will come directly to Ordos, adding uncertainty to the current situation."
This old guy really did want to attract my attention just now. Li Yu didn't know what An Xing was up to, so he pretended to be relaxed and said, "What does that have to do with me? The more chaotic the situation is, the better."
An Xing frowned, glanced at the disgusting face, suppressed his anger and said, "Are you interested in cooperating?"
"Cooperation?" Li Yu really didn't expect to hear these two words from Brother Anxing's mouth.
"Your brain stem was damaged? Or is your IQ reduced because of the lack of fresh blood?"
Upon hearing this, Anxing became angry again... The lack of blood did cause his emotions to fluctuate a bit.
But for the sake of his own plan, he could only suppress his anger and said: "Although I want to kill you, under the current situation, cooperation is the best option."
"Oh?" Li Yu raised his eyebrows: "Tell me about it..."
"Let's put aside our personal grudges first..." An Xing's first sentence made Li Yu want to laugh. The two of them were about to have a fight. Now they were going to put aside their grudges?
An Xing ignored Li Yu who was trying not to laugh and continued, "You need to survive. Although Gui Xing has abandoned you this time, this kind of thing cannot happen many times in a short period of time."
"When the two A-level life forms arrive, the Guixing Fleet will not attack directly. They will deploy space blockers and various weapons to prevent the other party from escaping."
"During this period of time, you are in the most dangerous time."
Dark Star was clear and organized. He summarized the information obtained in a short period of time and came to this conclusion.
Li Yu nodded. Outsiders didn't know his trump card, so it seemed to be true.
Dark Star then said the most crucial sentence: "And I can help you avoid this period of time. It will be no problem for me to temporarily stop two A-level life forms."
"It's enough to hold out until the Guixing Fleet arrives. Once they arrive, they won't be able to ignore you."
There is a fundamental difference between procedural evasion and turning a blind eye.
Li Yu now has a good reputation in Guixing, and the Guixing fleet can use the excuse of being unable to provide support or support is on the way to deal with external public opinion.
But the consequences of turning a blind eye are completely different, and no commander is willing to take that risk.
"You want to help me?" Li Yu couldn't help but chuckle: "It's good enough if you don't turn around and join the team besieging me."
An Xing wanted to shake his head, but found that this action was very awkward, so he had to give up and said coldly:
"You are my target, but the Apostle is even more of a target. If I can't kill you, there will be another time. If I can't get the Apostle, I will be in trouble."
With the help of DarkStar's power? Li Yu stroked his chin, thinking about this possibility.
He has the [Kryptonian Experience Card] so there will be no problem for him to stay alive, but on the basis of staying alive, he has to consider how to gain benefits.
[Apostle] is his target, but with the Star Empire Exploration Team and the Meteorite Fleet around, he also has to deal with King Li and Laser Man. It would be very troublesome if he wants to fish in troubled waters.
[Kryptonian Experience Card] only has one hour, so the time is a bit tight.
If he could avoid using the [Kryptonian Experience Card] when facing two A-level life forms , he would have a little more time.
However... this old guy Anxing cannot be easily trusted.
"The Xingyao Empire Exploration Team, the two A-level life forms that are chasing you, and I belong to three different forces." Anxing was still analyzing for Li Yu, trying to persuade Li Yu:
"We may unite against the Guixing Fleet, but it is not worth it to unite against you."
"When I stand in front of you, they will regard me as their enemy."
"This is a very sincere statement..." Li Yu looked down at the Dark Star on the plate, "Then what do I need to pay?"
The feeling of being looked down upon by Li Yu on the plate made him extremely uncomfortable, but he had no choice but to reply: "Let me go and let me repair my body."
Li Yu listened to this condition, which was hardly a condition, but did not agree to it immediately. Instead, he asked:
"How long will it take for you to have normal combat power after repairing your body?"
An Xing's heart skipped a beat, but he said calmly, "It will take at least three days. My new body is not strong enough to support me in a fierce battle."
"Oh..." Li Yu nodded: "That means you can fight."
"What do you mean?" Anxing asked.
Li Yu shrugged: "It's nothing. I'm ready to cooperate with you, but the time and place for you to repair your body can only be chosen by me."
"If it's too late, I won't have the fighting power to resist." Anxing gritted his teeth.
"Don't you think I'm still here? Don't worry..." Li Yu was not planning to release Anxing in advance. Now that the [Titan Colonization Suit] was not with him, releasing Anxing would be like asking for trouble.
Anxing was not a proud person. The people behind him seemed to have a great intimidation on him, causing him to prefer to cooperate with Li Yu and gain freedom in order to obtain the [Apostle].
Thinking of this, Li Yu couldn't help but chuckle: "If I had known this would happen, why would I have ambushed me in the first place? Otherwise, you would be in the dark and I would be in the light... maybe you could really kill me."
Anxing was a little depressed and didn't want to talk about this matter. He pretended not to hear it and continued, "Let me contact the team I'm connected to. They may be able to provide some help."
The group of people responsible for connecting with Anxing came from the Star Empire. They might know how to open the Titan ruins. Besides, Anxing couldn't do anything weird in front of them.
He was given a smart terminal, and through the pink material palm that was derived from it, Anxing dialed an encrypted link.
Not long after, the other party answered the call. His tone was a little hurried, but at the same time, he seemed relieved. "Master Anxing, you finally replied. I thought something happened to you."
An Xing's face darkened as he said something perfunctorily, "I'm dealing with some things. Where are you?"
Dark Star was the boss, so they naturally didn't dare to ask any more questions and replied, "We are near the Odos system, the coordinates are ***.***.***..."
If the entire Odos galaxy is regarded as a plane, the opponent's position is in the northwest, and the distance has not yet entered the range of the Odos main star.
"Master, the other party's location is correct..." Xiao Chaonao locked the other party's location through the communication link and displayed it on the holographic projection.
And he left a sub-body in the opponent's control system without anyone noticing, slowly breaking through the opponent's firewall.
The other party was driving a large battleship. His strength was not very strong and he mainly did odd jobs for DarkStar.
At Li Yu's suggestion, DarkStar was forced to ask the other party if he knew how to open the Titan ruins.
Unexpectedly, the other party actually knew about this. This was what the person behind Anxing told them before they came. It seemed that they really had an important responsibility for Anxing.
This is also relatively normal. After all, Dark Star is an A-level life form. Although in the long ruling timeline of many top civilizations, A-level is not rare.
But it doesn't mean it's worthless. If you equip yourself with manpower and material resources and plot against the Titan ruins, there's still a high chance of success.
Unfortunately, the other party didn't seem to expect this situation.
"…A special Titan code is required. The Star Empire Exploration Team should be decrypting it…"
They didn't have the means to decipher it, but the Star Empire Exploration Team did.
So they just need to wait for the Star Empire Exploration Team to complete the deciphering, and then take advantage of the situation.
Li Yu had asked Liu Xing yesterday what the Titan ruins were. It couldn't be a treasure trove left behind by the Titan civilization.
According to Liu Xing's answer, most of the existing Titan ruins are places where weapons are forged or where high-level equipment is stored.
The Titan civilization was once extremely prosperous, so Titan ruins are spread throughout the known universe.
…
Many fragments came together, gradually revealing the true appearance of the entire puzzle. The citizens of the planet Ordos still lived a leisurely life as usual.
The self-destructive Archon still did not leave, not because he was determined to live and die with Ordos.
But if he escaped from Ordos, the only result would be that he would be brought to trial.
…
Two days later, the Meteor Fleet hidden outside the Ordos Galaxy, the Star Empire exploration team and even the Dark Star docking team were all staring at the holographic screen.
A spaceship that was not covered at all, or could not be covered at all. Its old and worn-out hull was covered with traces of repairs and could not be concealed from many advanced detectors.
It sailed into the Odos galaxy openly . The last time a spacecraft sailed into Odos was when Li Yu arrived. It was self-evident who it was this time.
In the dilapidated spaceship, Li Wang and Laser Man have been completely transformed. I wonder how many twists and turns they went through to get here.
"Don't be impulsive. This place is not simple. We don't know where Guixing's fleet and the Imperial Exploration Team are hiding." Li Wang reminded the Laser Man as he looked at him getting increasingly excited.
The laser man didn't care: "It's just a pool of muddy water. It's all dormant. If we don't stir it up, who knows how long it will last."
The moment the dilapidated spacecraft landed on the planet Ordos, the entire Meteorite Fleet took action.
In the desolate starry sky, warships gradually emerged. The light of distant stars was refracted by the bright silver hulls, and the propulsion engines spewed out blazing tail flames.
Elt issued an order in the command room: "Send aircraft to deploy space blockades around Odos. We should not approach until the blockades are formed."
One after another small aircraft flew out and quickly approached the main star of Ordos.
"... Commander, the Hive Team did not obtain any information. Another artificial intelligence also disappeared from the Ordos network."
Elton frowned. He had arrived at his destination without figuring out what was hidden on the planet Ordos, which might very likely cause unknown variables.
But the target had already been trapped, and he couldn't just stand by and watch.
At the same time, in the Star Empire exploration ship, David looked at the fleet that suddenly appeared with a grim expression.
"...According to the information, the opponent is Guixing's Meteorite Fleet, and the commander is Elton Ramos. He has experience in commanding many large-scale wars and has killed individual A-level life forms..." the subordinate reported loudly.
David stared at the holographic screen and said in a cold voice: "Who do those two A-level life forms belong to? They actually used us as guns and asked us to deal with the meteorite fleet."
The moment the meteorite fleet appeared, David also understood the whole story. Li Yu was the bait to lure the two A-level life forms.
The reason why those two super-life forms dared to come here even though they knew there was a trap was because this was the Odos galaxy, and there was an exploration team from the Star Empire searching for Titan ruins.
So he was not afraid of the ambush of the Guixing Fleet at all.
The only question now is whether Li Yu chose the Odos galaxy by accident or on purpose.
If it was accidental, it would be fine. But if it was intentional, David's eyes flickered and he immediately ordered:
"Don't move for now. Wait for the best opportunity to strike. We need to inflict a fatal blow to the Meteorite Fleet."
No matter how angry David was, he couldn't just sit back and watch the Meteorite Fleet go.
Because they need to obtain the Titan ruins, they cannot sit idly by and watch the meteorite fleet descend on Ordos Prime.
This is an inevitable conflict between the two sides, and it is also the reason why Laser Man is confident that the Imperial Exploration Team will take action.
"...How long will it take to decipher the code?" A hoarse voice came from the shadow of the command room, causing the staff member in charge of reporting to shudder subconsciously.
David was not surprised. He glanced at the smart terminal and said, "It's almost done."
