Chapter 316: The Weird Situation
The three people's official mission is to assist in the defense of the Barot civilization, because the Amethyst civilization has been in turmoil recently, which has led to a tendency for Barot to be implicated.
They just regarded him as a player who came back from Guixing to support their younger brother.
The secret mission is actually to provide assistance to the returning star personnel who have infiltrated the Amethyst, including a series of tasks such as reception, assistance, and rescue.
In addition to these, Soli and Darth have a deeper hidden mission, which is to obtain the Heart of the Titan.
"A team has obtained some of Amethyst's cutting-edge technology, but is now in trouble. We need to go over to support them as soon as possible." Das told Li Yu that this was the reason they gave.
However, this matter was not fabricated, but a fact, and Li Yu also received this secret order.
As for the mission of taking over the Heart of the Titan, there was no way it would be revealed to Li Yu.
After coming out of the reception hotel, the three men went straight to Massimo and told him frankly that they wanted to drive the fleet to the border of Barot.
Massimo seemed not to have seen Li Yu. He looked at the other two people and asked in confusion, "Are you in such a hurry?"
Das didn't show any sign of anxiety on his face. He shook his head and said, "We have a mission after all. We have delayed it for too long. We should go now."
If Li Yu's matter is not handled properly, it will inevitably arouse speculation from the Barot civilization. What kind of thing made them unable to even take care of a fleet commander?
But it would be most appropriate to set out now in the name of a mission, and it would not arouse the slightest suspicion.
Massimo just asked casually. He didn't want to see Li Yu, the disaster star, so he said:
"If there is anything you need our help with, please feel free to ask and we will do our best to help."
As an ally of Guixing, this is what the Barot civilization should do, and it did not cause any waves in the hearts of the three people.
Das chatted for a few more words and then left. Because of Li Yu's presence, the atmosphere between them was a little awkward.
Originally, the situation should have been that both the host and the guests had a great time and could calmly go about their mission, but it turned out like this.
Das glanced at Li Yu vaguely, and the dissatisfaction in his eyes was clearly visible.
Li Yu didn't care at all. There was nothing to talk about among the three of them. They returned to their own fleets, coordinated their coordinates, and entered the jump state .
"Are you really awesome? You left in such a hurry just to kill an A-level life form?" the hunter came up and asked.
He had a general idea of what happened in the fleet, and he knew Li Yu quite well, so he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
After all, this is happening on someone else's territory, not on your own territory.
"That guy is a little special. He is a spiritual practitioner. If there are enough people to cooperate with him, it is possible that I will be trapped."
Li Yu's simple explanation made the hunter even more surprised.
He knew very well how important the spiritual practitioners were in the Star Empire.
"You killed an A-level spiritual practitioner..." He said in astonishment, "The Xingyao Empire values spiritual practitioners very much. They are settling old scores together. Be careful or you will end up on their must-kill list."
Li Yu shrugged and didn't care about the hunter's words. He thought that there were no need to worry about too many lice, and the attitude of the Star Empire towards him was not much better now.
There was a faint vibration from the main ship, and the porthole had turned into a tunnel of flowing light. They had entered the jump state and were heading to their destination.
Just as their three fleets left the Muhetal galaxy, the rats hiding in the dark corners also began to move.
Various encrypted information is sent through network channels to various coordinates that do not exist on the star map.
…
"Baron Li Yu... The Iron Fist Squad should be in the Basa Galaxy right now, being intercepted by the pursuers of the Amethyst Civilization. I hope you can sneak into the Amethyst Galaxy and help them leave."
Das communicated with Li Yu, fearing that Li Yu would refuse, he immediately said: "This is an order from the top."
This should be to get him out of the way to facilitate the actions of the two.
Li Yu pondered secretly, but what he was curious about now was, since they knew that he was an annoying trouble, why did the Titans send him here?
Wouldn't it be better to simply ban him from participating in this matter, so that his subordinates can carry out various secret activities openly?
Even if it is just to make Vimala feel involved and not to trip him up secretly, someone who is easier to control can be replaced.
Seeing that Li Yu had not responded, Das began to get nervous, fearing that the young baron would use his fists to speak again.
"Your Excellency the Baron..." Das said again, "After all, our identities are too special. It is not easy for us to enter the Amethyst Territory openly."
"It's not that we don't want to go, but the more people there are, the easier it is to be exposed. And among the three of us, you are the strongest, so..."
In order to get Li Yu to agree, there was even a lot of flattery in his tone.
"No problem..." Contrary to Das's expectations, the imagined trouble did not happen, and Li Yu agreed straightforwardly.
"After all, I am also a part of Guixing. I contribute to Guixing without distinction between you and me." Li Yu smiled brightly and spoke with sincerity.
Das listened to Li Yu's words and had a strange feeling in his heart. Things were going too smoothly.
Whether it was letting Li Yu leave the hotel or sending him to the Barcelona galaxy, there were no obstacles.
It was as if Li Yu was deliberately cooperating with them, this thought flashed through Das's mind.
However, this is impossible, as Li Yu does not know about the Heart of the Titan.
Hanging up the call with a smile, Li Yu opened the star map and found the location of the Basa galaxy, which is a galaxy located in the middle of the Amethyst civilization, leaning towards the side of the Barot civilization.
The presence is not strong, and neither business, tourism nor industry are developed.
However, the Basa system is not far from the Taburi system, and the jump time is estimated to be six to eight days.
This is an opportunity to get the gene optimization device quietly, so Li Yu agreed so decisively.
On the other side... Das was communicating with Soli, and Soli was also a little surprised at Li Yu's decisiveness.
"He agreed so readily, there must be some conspiracy, right?" Soli always thought that Li Yu looked down on him because Li Yu didn't let him get involved in the battle with Donovan last time.
So he didn't want to talk much with Li Yu and asked Das to negotiate.
"That shouldn't be the case..." Das said uncertainly, "What conspiracy could there be?"
"Maybe it's because he really wants to return to the star..."
Soli's eyes were dead as he stared at Das. If Li Yu could be considered to have his heart set on Guixing, then everyone in this universe was a citizen of Guixing.
"I'm just kidding... why are you taking it so seriously?" Das smiled awkwardly, then said, "The team in charge of the Titan's Heart is in trouble, and many people are watching them."
"After letting Li Yu leave, we will start the action. The Hermit Team is ready."
Soli nodded when he heard this, and then said impatiently: "That guy is such a big trouble. I really don't know why His Majesty Titus asked him to come here."
“Even if Queen Vimala is behind Klein, is His Highness Titus really afraid of her?”
Das glanced at Soli and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"Do you know something?" Soli looked at Das suspiciously.
Das hesitated for a moment, then shook his head: "Nothing?"
"It's fine if Li Yu looks down on me, but do you look down on me too?" Suo Li pretended to be angry and said, "We have been brothers for many years."
"Stop, stop, stop..." Das was helpless, and then whispered: "According to Commander Keya..."
"Keya?" Soli's reaction was even more intense. He looked at Das in doubt and said, "Okay, you hid it well enough. When did you get on the bed of that bitch?"
"Go away..." Das scolded, "Do you still want to listen?"
"Listen... to you." Soli's rough face showed more gnashing of teeth, but he had to suppress the jealousy in his heart.
"It is said that it is not only because of Vimala, but also because of the instigation of His Highness Alex..." Das's words surprised Soli.
"Alexei? The transparent prince?"
"No matter how transparent he is, he is still the son of His Majesty Tigor." Das said speechlessly, "And his mother's family is quite influential in the Barot civilization."
"Many teams relied on the channels of the Barot Civilization to escape unscathed from the Amethyst Civilization."
Their three fleets are only the visible forces, and there are many secret arrangements, which have already caused huge waves within the Amethyst Civilization.
Soli nodded in realization, but then became a little confused: "But Li Yu is not his man, he is Klein's man."
"Why is he rushing to seek credit for Li Yu?"
Das shook his head, "Who knows, maybe it was to please Queen Vimala."
The two of them couldn't come to a conclusion after discussing it, so they just started discussing the specific plan.
On the other side, Li Yu fell into deep thought, Alexei?
As for this relatively transparent prince, his only memory remained at the clinking of glasses at the Titus banquet.
On the surface, he is just a sunny and bright boy.
But Li Yu didn't expect that he was sent here because he was the one who contributed to the situation.
"Why do I feel that this matter is becoming more and more interesting..." There are too few clues at present, and I can't figure out the whole thing. No matter what conspiracy he has behind it, as long as he can get enough benefits, it's fine.
Strength is king!
The jump time was not short. It took them about twenty days to reach the border of the Barot civilization.
This is the trouble with not having a stargate. Even if you can travel quickly through the jump channel, it will still take a long time.
In the past, when he returned to the star, he would quickly go through the star gate to the star gate closest to his destination, and then sail, so it didn't take long.
"I'll trouble you with the next thing. If there is any emergency, we will definitely provide you with our full support."
Das said solemnly that he was not going to give Li Yu any time to rest and directly asked him to prepare to sneak into the Amethyst Galaxy.
The spacecraft and identification were ready and handed over to him.
"No problem!" Li Yu was equally solemn. He packed up quickly, activated the spacecraft's jump state, and headed for the destination.
After seeing Li Yu off, Das and Soli looked at each other, feeling indescribably proud.
Soli couldn't help but say, "No matter how strong you are, you are still at our mercy."
He was still brooding over the fact that Li Yu had stopped him from joining the battle, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Now he felt quite proud.
"Okay, this is just the first step of the plan..." Das's resentment towards Li Yu was not that deep: "We should contact the Hermit Team now..."
Soli snorted coldly and looked at the direction where Li Yu left. Now there was only a silent starry sky there.
…
In the small meteorite belt near the Basa galaxy, a somewhat shabby-looking spaceship was parked on a rock.
In the artificially created air bubble, a dozen creatures wearing combat armor were alert to their surroundings. A large number of precision instruments were placed in the center, and various life-support equipment was in operation.
All the metal detection instruments and catheters were inserted into the same person. There was almost no good place on his body. They were all charred black, as if they had been burned by a blazing flame.
"Captain, you have to hold on!" someone next to him said in a crying voice, and the visor was opened to reveal a rather cool girl, but now her eyes were filled with tears.
"No... don't waste time on me, just leave here quickly." The seriously injured captain gasped, his charred skin cracked from time to time, revealing blood.
"…They have sent out A-level life forms. We can't resist them at all. If we delay any further, it will be too late."
"You must bring the blueprints back!"
"Captain... the spaceship's jump engine has been damaged... we can no longer enter the jump state..." someone next to him spoke sadly.
The captain's body trembled suddenly, but he didn't say anything, just sighed.
"…It seems that this mission is doomed to fail."
“Where’s the support?” Someone else spoke angrily, pacing back and forth with a huge black sniper rifle on his back. “We applied for support a month ago, but there has been no response so far.”
"Have we been abandoned?!"
"Shut up!" the captain shouted coldly, and then opened the wound, making him unable to speak temporarily.
“…We are people of the Guixing when we are alive, and ghosts of the Guixing when we die!”
"Civilization will never...abandon us!"
The man carrying the sniper rifle was still unwilling to give in and tried to say something, but was interrupted by a sudden voice from the communication channel.
"I am touched. What a good soldier!" The voice started out slightly frivolous, but later became more sinister: "But you are the invaders, yet you act like great martyrs here."
Everyone's faces changed. They didn't know when their communication channel had been completely taken over, which meant that their whereabouts had been under the other party's surveillance.
The lights of warships gradually lit up all around, and one warship after another slowly approached here. There were not many of them, just a small formation.
They were surrounded in the center and the energy cannon began to charge.
The scene was despairing; they raised their guns, yet they looked incredibly small.
