Chapter 266 Energy Level Division
"You are a person with temper." Dean Porto bumped into the alloy wall and fell down. The armor on his chest was dented, revealing clear fist marks.
He stood up nonchalantly, still seemingly unhurt, and said calmly, "Have you vented your anger? Can you think about it now?"
Dean Porto thought that Li Yu was just venting his anger about being ambushed, and didn't think that the other party would refuse Titus's recruitment.
Li Yu looked at Dean Porto from head to toe, and the aura on his body gradually became calmer. After the battle just now, he was able to gradually control the energy balls that were dissipating from his body.
He really didn't expect that the other party would actually recruit him. After all, he was now Klein's man, and ordinary forces wouldn't dare to do such a thing.
Titans' prestige in Guixing is very high, and the fact that the A-level life form under his command invited him is a sign of great importance.
Although both are royal descendants, the status of Titus and Klein is incomparable.
Even though he had an extremely unpleasant quarrel with Vimala, Klein was still relying on Vimala's intimidation to hold on.
Titus himself has a transcendent status. Not only that, he is also Tigor's first child, and Tigor has special feelings for him.
When Titus was just born, Tigor would bring Titus with him on certain special occasions. He was also the first in line to the throne of Return Star.
Moreover, the power under Titus has been growing naturally for a long time. It has abundant resources, extensive connections, a rich family background, and is extremely powerful.
It is a behemoth in its own right, and it is still active and expanding.
The most intuitive example is that Titus can even establish friendly exchanges with many civilizations as an individual.
"I've been involved in a lot of big things recently, showing off my abilities and becoming an A-level life form. It's probably because of this that Titus noticed me."
Li Yu thought secretly that this was very reasonable. Poaching was a routine operation. Titus came to poach people to prove that his value was constantly increasing.
"Aren't you afraid of Klein? Behind her is Queen Vimala." Li Yu asked tentatively.
Dean Porto said in a muffled voice:
"Females should just keep reproducing offspring, while males should fight for power and gain."
If this were to get out, he would probably be criticized to death. Li Yu strongly condemned this kind of gender discrimination.
"Bullshit!" Lacey cursed angrily. Researchers like them had a special status, so she was not afraid even if the other party was an A-level life form.
"I've heard for a long time that the Boer Black Bull tribe refused interstellar liberation. Now it seems to be true!"
Dean Porto automatically ignored Lacey's words. In his eyes, Lacey was not yet a female.
Should belong to... ants?
Lacey felt ignored by Dean Porto, and although she was so angry that she gritted her teeth, she could do nothing about it.
Although he did not give a direct answer, Dean Porto's inner thoughts were revealed. Titus did not appear to be afraid of Vimala.
Li Yu thought for a moment and asked, "His Highness Titus should not be a stingy person. If I refuse the invitation, will he bear a grudge against me?"
Dean Porto put away his smile, stared at Li Yu, and said in an unquestionable tone, "Although His Highness Titus doesn't know about this for the time being, you can reconsider it."
Inviting Li Yu was not Titus' idea, but Dean Porto's sudden idea. He had only heard this name from Titus a few times, so he paid a little attention to it.
Unexpectedly, Li Yu gave him a surprise today. Even if it was not Titus's intention, based on his understanding of Titus, the other party would appreciate him after knowing it.
Collecting strong and potential people is Titus's hobby. When he followed Titus, he was just a B-level life form.
This was already a threat. Baimao raised his eyebrows and his expression turned playful. He had no doubt that Dean Porto could represent Titus.
Now it means that Li Yu is considering rejecting Titus. He hesitated for a moment, raised the corners of his mouth, and chuckled:
" Newbie... you have to think carefully. Rejecting His Highness Titus is not a wise choice."
Li Yu narrowed his eyes and looked at the white-haired man, "Are you also a member of His Majesty Titus's army?"
"He's not..." Dean Porto shook his head in denial.
"I am an independent person and belong to Guixing..." Baimao added, looking at Li Yu with narrowed eyes. For some reason, he thought of a certain animal in his hometown, which was known for its cunningness.
"Oh..." Li Yu suddenly realized, and then pretended to be puzzled and asked: "Did you also reject His Majesty Titus' invitation?"
Baimao's expression suddenly changed slightly, and the atmosphere immediately became a little awkward. Dean Porto frowned slightly and explained:
"He is not qualified yet. When he became an A-level life form, he was already at the end of his species' lifespan. His aptitude is not good enough to catch the eye of His Highness Titus."
"So that's how it is..." Li Yu said meaningfully. Although he didn't say anything sarcastic, Baimao felt inexplicably insulted.
Baimao's face changed several times. He wanted to refute but didn't know where to start, because it was indeed the fact.
He could only snort coldly and said, "Newcomer, you should think more about how to choose."
He was reminding Dean Porto. As expected, Dean Porto urged again, "Don't waste time. Make a choice quickly."
Li Yu thought to himself that if he switched to Titus, Klein would probably be very angry. After all, this girl's feelings for him seemed a little unusual.
But the benefits... seem to be huge. Titus' influence is much stronger than Klein, who still needs Vimala's support.
But... he still shook his head: "I'm sorry, His Highness Klein is very good to me, and I don't want to change my allegiance yet."
He had no intention of breaking away from Klein, and although Klein's influence was not strong at the moment, he would soon be in touch with Athel and Prince Connor.
Because of the influence of Max and Edwin, these two big guys will definitely lean towards Klein.
Titus has long been high and mighty, so how could he enjoy the pleasure of being nurtured?
Besides, he had a lot of secrets, and Klein had never asked about them once. He couldn't guarantee that Titus had the same trust.
"Wow..." Baimao laughed exaggeratedly twice: "What a deep friendship. It reminds me of some recent scandals."
"...Following His Highness Klein gives me the chance to become a prince. It seems to be better than following His Highness Titus..."
Laixi was a little confused. What did it mean to become a prince? Li Yu was not an heir to the throne, so how could he become a prince?
Could it be... She widened her eyes, and then became a little lost. No wonder Li Yu had no interest in her. Compared to Klein... she was indeed too different.
Dean Porto's smile disappeared completely. He stared at Li Yu with a cold expression.
Li Yu did not back down either, but glared back, secretly adjusting his state and preparing for a second fight.
The atmosphere gradually became solemn.
Just when he thought the fight was about to break out again, Dean Porto suddenly snorted heavily, turned around and left.
Li Yu looked a little confused. How could this wild bull not attack him?
The heavy metal door of the training ground opened and Dean Porto walked out of the training ground. Just as the door was about to close, he suddenly turned his head and glanced at Li Yu with a low voice.
"We'll see each other again soon."
After saying that, he left without caring about Li Yu's reaction.
See you soon... What does this mean? Are you looking for a chance to deal with me? Or is there something else?
"You won't assassinate me if you fail to recruit me. Titus has a good reputation outside, so there's no need to do that. I'm not someone you must recruit."
Li Yu shook his head. After thinking it through, he was no longer worried.
Baimao had a look of regret on his face. He thought he could see another good show, but Dean Porto did not take any action, which was really beyond his expectations.
"Mr. Baimao, would you like to practice with me?" Li Yu looked at the Baimao next to him.
"My name is Javier Aguirre," Javier emphasized.
"Okay, Baimao..." Li Yu nodded.
"You!" Javier's face was slightly angry, but he turned around and smiled: "Newcomer, do you think you can sit back and relax after becoming an A-level life form?"
"No matter what kind of life form it is, reaching level A is just the beginning. Every step forward requires a huge amount of resources."
"Guixing won't give you these resources for nothing."
After reaching level A, although Guixing will allocate resources regularly, it is far from enough to support the continued evolution of level A life forms.
Whether it is mechanical transformation, replacement of gene chains or other evolutionary paths, the resources consumed after reaching Class A are enormous.
Unless you are a big shot like Titus, you don't have to worry about resources.
"So you've been standing still because no one cares about you?" Li Yu retorted mercilessly.
Javier glared angrily, but he was not Dean Porto. No one supported him, so he dared to start a war here at will.
Li Yu shook his head secretly. He didn't take the resource issue he mentioned seriously.
While waiting for the bounty to be redeemed, he won’t have to worry about resources for a long time.
If someone wants to replace their gene chain, they need to select a replacement target and then submit an application. After going through layers of approval, Guixing will provide help.
That’s right… Guixing only provides assistance and does not guarantee success.
He only needs to refresh to the right world, and then let his clone obtain enough genes and flesh and blood and bring them back for Payton to study.
This is his greatest advantage and the capital for survival.
"How is this possible? The highest burst is 75,600 calories?" Lacey exclaimed, her mouth opened into an "o" shape. She was checking the records at the training ground.
"75,600 cards..." Li Yu raised his eyebrows: "Whoever scored it, the bull is still me."
"Of course it's you..." Lacey looked up in disbelief: "If I hadn't just seen you become an A-level life form, I would have thought you were a veteran A-level life form."
"75,600 calories?" Javier seemed to be stimulated by something, with a look of disbelief on his face. He walked quickly forward and pushed Lacey away from the holographic screen.
Lacey was indignant, rubbing her shoulders and lifting her clothes, revealing severe bruises on her fair skin.
Handing over a healing potion, Li Yu looked up at the holographic screen.
This is a training ground, so there are naturally energy level detection devices, and a large number of combat records flash across the holographic screen.
The energy level of 75,600 calories was detected when Li Yu finally transformed into a "Saiyan" and blasted Dean Porto against the wall. It is close to the energy level standard of a secondary evolution body.
A long time ago, Li Yu knew that Class A life forms were far from the limit of evolution, and Dark Star had asked Payton to help study the replacement of the underlying gene chain.
After becoming an A-level life form, due to the numerous evolutionary paths, it is difficult to clearly distinguish the three mainstream evolutionary paths: superpowers... mechanical transformation... genetic evolution.
Not to mention that each civilization has its own unique evolutionary path.
Energy level became the standard for division. This standard was spread from the Star Empire and was formulated by a senior researcher named Cartley.
It was originally used to measure the lethality of weapons, but now it is also used to classify A-level life forms.
10,000 to 100,000 cards belong to Class A life forms in a broad sense, which are also Class A life forms recognized by Star Citizen.
100,000 cards to 1 million cards belong to the second evolution.
It is also jokingly called A2 life form or AA level by many people. It is just a name and has no specific impact.
It is a genetically evolved body that has replaced an underlying gene chain, or a mechanized transformed body that has strengthened its own mechanical structure.
The Star Destroyer Cannon, which is widely feared by interstellar citizens and is considered to be the top technological weapon, has an energy level of 9.56 million calories.
This is part of the information released to the public, and it is also the information that the laboratory gave him synchronously after he became an A-level life form, allowing him to have a clearer understanding of his own strength.
However, at the end of the material, the laboratory also noted that energy level reactions are only for reference, and specific practical factors are affected by many aspects.
Many special abilities cannot be detected using quantified energy level standards, and defense is also a key factor affecting victory or defeat.
Not long after Li Yu became an A-level life form, he burst out with an attack close to the second evolution under various amplifications.
It's really surprising!
Javier stared at the holographic screen for a long time before accepting this reality. Through the battle with Dean Porto, he had guessed that Li Yu's strength was not simple.
But he didn't expect that the opponent could actually launch an attack of 75,600 cards, which is close to his current strength.
He has been an A-level life form for ten years and has accumulated this strength.
And it seems that the other party has become an A-level life form for less than a day? Or half a day?
No wonder Dean Porto valued him and even decided to recruit him immediately.
A hint of bitterness crossed Javier's lips. He had comforted himself many times that his poor qualifications were simply due to his being born at the wrong time.
He was not valued by Titus at the B-level life form stage like Dean Porto was.
In today's interstellar society, there is no such thing as qualifications. As long as resources are piled up, there will always be strong strength.
But reality gave him a resounding slap in the face. There is always someone who can convert one resource into twice the strength, or even more.
Whether it is qualifications or talents, the gap between people and between creatures always exists.
