Chapter 298: The Astrologer and the Split Prologue
The host's face turned red with anger, but he could only suppress his anger in front of the camera. He sent Li Yu away in a friendly manner and continued to look for the next victim.
The Vortex Aerospace Corporation building in the center of the city has been emptied, and the entire site has been requisitioned and protected by various protective measures.
When the memorial service was held in the Endel Galaxy, protective measures were implemented to eliminate all hidden dangers.
Li Yu showed his identity and passed many checkpoints before reaching the top floor of the building.
In the spacious hall, a warm voice came from the corner. Many people had already come here. Everyone was dressed in a suit and tie, with a warm smile, toasting with the person next to them.
Li Yu, who appeared at the door, attracted a lot of people's attention. In other words, everyone who could appear in this hall had a high status and was worthy of attention.
However, Li Yu was obviously special, because with his appearance, the discussion in the entire hall became slightly quieter, but the next moment... it rose again.
Various glances passed over Li Yu without any expression. It was obvious that he, as a popular figure recently, was too eye-catching.
“…He is Li Yu?”
"...He is indeed very young..."
"…Although he is young, his methods are very shrewd…"
"...It is said that His Majesty Tigor favors him... and intends to let him take over the Meteoric Fleet. I am afraid he will become the youngest captain in the history of Guixing."
"...An opportunistic guy..."
"Hehe... If you become an A-level life form at such a young age, His Majesty will also favor you."
“…”
All kinds of low noises were captured by the Titan Colonial Suit and translated into a common language and transmitted to his ears.
This group of people must have known that their discussion might be heard by Li Yu, but they didn't care and expressed their attitudes.
"Baron Li Yu..." Several people in the crowd came over, holding wine glasses with enthusiastic smiles.
"I've heard of your great name for a long time, and now we finally meet." One of them raised his glass to show his respect.
Li Yu nodded slightly, took a glass of wine from the tray held by the waiter next to him, and chatted and laughed with a few people.
At the same time, he joined a group. This group of people belonged to Prince Connor, so they treated Li Yu well.
The person who just raised his glass to Li Yu was a senior director of Guixing’s education department, named Zolte.
After Li Yu knew his identity, his eyes flickered slightly.
"...It's no problem for the Baron to ask. Which academy do you want your nephews to go to? Apart from the Royal Academy, you can choose any other one." Zolt said generously.
"...Thank you very much, but there is a troll among my nephews ..." Li Yu then gave the details.
Just now he just mentioned the matter of admission, and the other party patted his chest and promised.
"Troll?" Zsolt's expression slightly restrained. Trolls were not welcome in Guixing because they were one of the main combat legions of the Star Empire.
"It's not a difficult thing. I'll just apply for an immigration certificate. I'll be no different from an ordinary citizen. " Someone laughed and said:
"Besides, even the trolls come to our Guixing to study. Doesn't this further prove the superiority of our Guixing?"
A smile appeared on Zolter's face again: "That's no problem."
"Thank you all..." Li Yu raised his glass with a smile on his face.
From beginning to end he just mentioned the matter of admission, and then everyone helped him to get it done.
What a corrupt capitalism! Li Yu secretly refuted this behavior in his heart.
"Mr. Astrologer is here..." someone whispered, looking towards the gate.
The man was wearing a dark blue robe dotted with various special symbols, his hair was gray, his white beard hung down to his chest, and his old eyes did not contain any muddy colors.
"Mr. Astrologer actually attended Elton's memorial service..."
"…It is said that Elton once protected the hometown of the Astrologer, so we got in touch…"
“…”
Li Yu also looked at the old man. He didn't know if it was a coincidence, but the other party was also looking at him. The other party's deep eyes seemed to contain endless stars.
The Astrologer...is one of the high-level talents recruited by Guixing. He comes from a mysterious planet. Legend has it that he has the ability to peek into the future and has a very high status.
But many people also questioned it because this ability was too incredible.
The astrologer ignored the others and walked straight to Li Yu under everyone's gaze. His eyes were like crystal balls.
"I know he's not dead..." The astrologer's words caused the place to fall into silence. Everyone looked at each other, and only Li Yu asked in confusion: "Who is not dead?"
"You know who I'm talking about..." The astrologer did not say it directly. He was an old fox who insisted on being a riddle teller.
If he directly said that Elton was not dead, but in the end he could not prove it, he might get into trouble.
"Sir, please don't play guessing games with me..." Li Yu lowered his head and watched the purple liquid in the wine glass ripple as he shook it.
The astrologer remained silent. Li Yu looked up and suddenly, a purple light seemed to emerge from the depths of those two eyes that were as bright as stars.
Li Yu's face changed slightly, knowing that something was definitely wrong, but before he could react, a ball of purple light shot out from the astrologer's pupil.
Li Yu subconsciously activated the space jump ability of the [Titan Colonial Suit] and instantly appeared in another place.
However, the purple light followed him like a shadow and appeared in front of him at the same time, ignoring any obstacles and shooting into Li Yu's pupils.
The next moment, the world was spinning, Li Yu's perspective became blurred, and he came to his own spiritual ocean.
The tiny godhead radiated light, golden runes flickered, and chanting could be faintly heard coming from it.
A faint wailing sound was heard in my ears, and purple light balls gathered from all directions to form the appearance of the old man. His figure was blurry and a little scattered, as if he had been seriously injured.
There was a look of horror on his old face.
"You are actually a god!?" The shock in the astrologer's heart was unimaginable.
Somehow he was able to determine that Elton was not dead.
But there was no evidence to prove this, so Li Yu could not be questioned through direct procedures. Therefore, the attempt was made to use mental suggestion to make Li Yu speak out himself.
However, when he arrived at the other party's spiritual ocean, he was shocked to find that the other party was actually a god?
He himself understood very well how difficult it was to deal with the gods, especially in the opponent's home court, he could be said to have walked into a trap.
"...You are hiding too deeply. If Guixing knew, they would not let you go!" the astrologer shouted.
“They won’t know…” Li Yu’s voice echoed here, and a large number of golden symbols poured out from the godhead.
It was like golden chains entwined with each other from all directions.
A ball of purple mist burst out, like bright stars in the galaxy, but it was of no use at all. The golden symbols gradually formed a cage, locking the opponent inside.
Bang!
The purple cloud exploded, and the astrologer's spirit body directly destroyed itself, leaving Li Yu no chance to control him.
Although the destruction of the spiritual body will cause great harm to the clone, at least we know that Li Yu is definitely not a simple person.
If he is controlled, his body will not be able to sense any information and will only become more confused.
The spiritual body was destroyed and all information could not be transmitted. Do you really think that the gods’ home court is a joke?
Li Yu shook his head. The opponent's methods couldn't even break through the godhood, let alone trigger the self-defense mechanism of [Power of the Scepter].
They slowly opened their eyes and found the entire hall was in complete silence. They didn't know what had happened. They only saw Li Yu suddenly appear in another place and then began to stare blankly.
"Puff!" The astrologer suddenly spat out large mouthfuls of blood, staggered back a few steps, and barely stopped. His clear eyes seemed to have become much more cloudy.
"You..." He looked at Li Yu, seeming a little unbelievable.
"Mr. Astrologer!" Someone came up hurriedly and supported the astrologer.
Li Yu looked around and found that most people were confused. It was obvious that they did not see the purple light.
"Mr. Astrologer... when you get old, you should stop wandering around." Li Yu looked at the other person and said lightly.
The people around had flickering looks, as if they had guessed something, but no one spoke anything.
The astrologer also did not continue to speak. With the help of the people around him, he stood up straight and said, "Thank you for the reminder."
Li Yu smiled slightly, ignored the other party, and continued to talk with the people around him. Not long after, the atmosphere here returned to what it was just now.
Especially after the waiter wiped the blood off the ground, it seemed as if nothing had happened.
…
Amethyst Civilization——Vick Galaxy－Main Star
This planet is not the home planet or capital of the Amethyst Civilization, but rather a prosperous and important administrative planet.
It is a large galaxy on the front line of the entire civilization. It has a superior location and is an important economic center. It has a permanent population of over 10 billion and also handles a huge number of foreign population every day.
In a main city on the main star of the Vic galaxy, suspended vehicles shuttle between tall buildings, and various rapid transportation equipment come and go along the planned flight routes. The city is prosperous and peaceful.
However, on this day, the prosperity of the main star of the Vick Galaxy was broken.
A red object suddenly appeared in outer space, falling at high speed. The observation radar did not detect any previous movement trajectory of the object, as if it was born out of thin air.
The red object was falling at an extremely fast speed, heading towards the city, leaving the fleet stationed on the main star of the Vick galaxy with very little time to react.
Countless fully automated planetary floating air defense arrays deployed in the atmosphere responded quickly.
A huge amount of purple energy was released, condensing into a defense network stretching for hundreds of miles, blocking the path of the unknown object falling.
This device is generally used to resist warships or meteorites. Its energy is almost materialized and it has extremely strong elasticity, toughness and ductility.
It can use the tens of thousands of meters distance from the atmosphere to the ground as a buffer zone to cover the target and eliminate its kinetic energy.
However, the red object directly tore through the defense network.
The defense array immediately implemented the second plan, shooting out countless tracking rays, ready to intercept the unknown object at high altitude and reduce it to ashes.
But it also failed. The unknown object seemed indestructible and also had some kind of anti-targeting capability, which misled the radar's judgment and caused a large number of rays to miss.
Looking up at the sky from the ground, you can see purple spots formed by a large amount of rays melting the air.
Woo woo woo——
At the same time, air raid sirens sounded throughout the city where the unknown object fell. Countless entrances to underground shelters appeared on the surface of the city. A large number of citizens took refuge in nearby underground shelters. The streets soon became deserted and empty.
At this time, the city also activated a super-large protective shield to protect the entire city, ready to withstand the impact of the falling unknown objects.
Thousands of anti-aircraft guns stretched out from the land at the edge of the city, firing bang bang bang, shooting in unison towards the sky, as if the earth was raining purple rain into the sky.
As an extremely important administrative planet of Amethyst, its defense measures are very powerful.
The unknown object was wrapped in a raging flame, rapidly enlarging in his dark blue pupils.
"The friction flame is too thick to clearly see the specific appearance of this unknown object. It is about to fall to the ground. We must intercept it!"
In the defense channel, the person in charge roared loudly, using all kinds of means, and venting energy like a waterfall, but it was useless.
"What on earth is this..."
In the next second, the speed of the unknown object suddenly increased, crashing through the city's protective shield and landing in the city center.
Bang!!
A huge pit several hundred meters across was smashed into the ground, and the tornado-like flames quickly dissipated, revealing the full picture of the "unknown object".
It was actually an irregular black crystal, emitting billowing black smoke , lying on the ground.
The observation satellite of the main star of the Vic Galaxy looked down from high in the sky and broadcast the situation here to other cities on the planet. This crystal was seen by tens of billions of people.
The garrison on the main star of the Vick galaxy has already noticed that something is wrong.
The high-level life forms responsible for guarding the Vick galaxy are rushing over urgently, and the stationed fleet is also taking action.
Warships quickly gathered, and most of the armed forces from the main star of the Vick galaxy were rushing to the attacked city.
However, the next moment, the crystal directly caused great panic.
As the black crystals began to flicker, the energy level increased dramatically, and terrifying energy condensed rapidly, like a super bomb about to explode!
Buzz!!
The next moment, the fierce light made all the people on the main star of the Vick galaxy who were watching the satellite broadcast close their eyes, and the subsequent outbreak of radiation interference forcibly cut off the satellite's observation.
But even without the broadcast, the people of the entire Vic Galaxy main star felt it...
The ground beneath my feet shook!
A huge black energy ball expanded rapidly with the pit as its center, becoming extremely huge and swallowing up the entire city.
The energy ball expanded to cover the entire city and seemed to have expanded to its limit.
Then the entire energy ball seemed to lose its balance and exploded with a loud bang. The radioactive explosion energy and shock wave swept across everything!
Boom——
The earth is wailing, and crisscrossing rift valleys are born from this city.
Be it the air defense, the ground forces, or all the citizens in the underground shelters, they were all reduced to ashes in this devastating explosion.
It's like the end of the world!
After an unknown amount of time, the aftermath of the explosion finally ended, and the main city was wiped off the map and no longer existed.
All the tall buildings were razed to the ground, leaving only huge sinkholes and crisscrossing rift valleys.
There was no one alive in the entire city.
The satellite broadcast was restored. Looking at the planet that had been completely changed beyond all recognition, everyone in the entire Vic galaxy saw this scene, and everyone seemed to have forgotten how to breathe.
Boundless panic gripped everyone's heart.
Just a few minutes after the attack, every interstellar media outlet of the Amethyst Civilization immediately interrupted the broadcast of emergency news, reporting the attack on the main star of the Vic Galaxy to the entire region.
And in the outer space of the entire main star, more black crystals are falling!
