Chapter 335 The storm is coming again!
A deep blue light lit up in the palm of his hand and turned into a vortex. In the vortex, the whale core surged continuously, but was bound and compressed by some force, maintaining the shape of a crystal.
"Sir, the role of whale cores is very important. Many chambers of commerce are willing to purchase them at high prices. Not only can it greatly improve the progress of gene chain development, but it can also prolong life." Anthony introduced.
Iris secretly glanced at Anthony, fuck... this old snake got there first.
Li Yu didn't say anything, just washed the surface casually and swallowed it.
This stunned everyone, and Carol couldn't help but say, "This is the first time I've seen someone swallow a whale core alive."
"Even scavengers who have just started their careers know that this kind of thing needs to be combined with a variety of materials to achieve the best effect."
"Ignorance!" Stanley scolded, "How dare you compare yourself to an adult with your lowly status?"
As the whale core entered his mouth, an extremely cold shudder erupted from his mouth, sweeping through his body in an instant, as if even his soul was frozen.
Li Yu's perception of his body has already reached the microscopic level. Under the impact of this high-purity life energy, his cells slowly become stronger, and his own gene chain changes again.
The life energy increased by the whale core can not only improve his physical fitness and improve his recovery ability, but also prolong his life. After all, the star whale is the symbol of longevity.
Turning on the gene detection device, he found that the progress of his gene chain development had reached 51%, which was only an increase of about 1%, which made Li Yu a little disappointed.
If this gets out, it will probably make a large group of A-level life forms jealous. They have been working hard recently but may not be able to improve by 1%, and Li Yu is still not satisfied here.
It is not easy to encounter star whales in the ancient waterways. If you are unlucky enough to encounter an elderly star whale, then just wait for death.
Not long after swallowing the whale core, Anthony's confiscated smart terminal started ringing non-stop.
Stanley picked up the smart terminal, which displayed a string of garbled characters, and he didn't know who it belonged to.
"Come here and see who is communicating with you?" Stanley said to Anthony.
Anthony walked over cautiously and took a look, his expression slightly changed as he said, "It's the Gray Snake's contact person."
"Gray Snake's people?" Stanley frowned and looked at the old snake with a slightly grim look: "Why would they suddenly communicate with you? Did you do something secretly?"
"This old snake was famous for its cunningness. You can't let your guard down against him," Iris warned.
Anthony subconsciously sucked and spit out the snake core quickly. This was his subconscious reaction under extreme anxiety. Damn Iris... I will remember you!
"Let him answer the call." Li Yu waved his hand, and Anthony breathed a sigh of relief. He picked up the smart terminal and started answering the call.
"Lant Hub, B-level intelligence agent - Anthony Snake Core, you are now temporarily promoted to A-level intelligence agent." An unpleasant voice came from the communication, causing Anthony's snake pupils to shrink.
If it were any other time, he would be extremely excited to hear this news, but under the current circumstances, he was not excited at all.
I could only raise my voice to sound happier: "Thank you for the organization's cultivation."
"There is a big client who wants to purchase the clues of the ancient waterway fleet. You will be responsible for connecting with him." The contact person then stated the request.
The Gray Snake's organizational structure is not rigorous, or it is extremely tolerant of peripheral intelligence personnel, there is nothing that can be done about it.
The universe is too vast, and the intelligence agents scattered in various galaxies are all self-reliant. Apart from the exchange of interests, there is basically no means to control them.
For example, Anthony also has to pay a price if he wants to obtain information from the Gray Snake, and at most he can be given a discount.
If Gray Snake wants to get information from him, he also needs to pay a price.
Anthony couldn't help but look at Li Yu, waiting for his decision.
Someone wants to buy the information of the meditation fleet? Li Yu subconsciously passed through many candidates in his mind, and at the same time a subtle idea emerged.
Li Yu nodded, indicating that Anthony could take the order.
Anthony then replied: "No problem."
"He will contact you later. The intelligence on that fleet is temporarily rated A-level. If you have any new clues, report them in time for re-evaluation." The liaison officer instructed.
Each piece of intelligence is carefully graded by the Gray Snakes according to its value and impact. If you want to obtain this intelligence, you need to pay a corresponding price.
After Anthony hung up the call, he looked at Li Yu humbly: "Sir, what should I do?"
"Answer truthfully, there's no need to lie to them. I'm also curious about the strength of that fleet." Li Yu hinted at something.
Anthony immediately understood Li Yu's hint and whispered, "Don't worry, I will handle it properly."
A sense of urgency suddenly arose in Iris' heart. Anthony had already demonstrated his value, and his life would probably not be in danger in the short term.
But her beauty, which she was proud of, was of no use to Li Yu.
Do you want to... She looked at Carol in front of the porthole, and seeing the other's indifferent expression, he gave up the idea of alliance.
The fool Carol has always been reckless and doesn't care much about his own life. If I secretly form an alliance with him, I might be implicated and killed.
While Iris was thinking, Anthony's smart terminal rang again. This was a link that was not saved in Anthony's address book.
Anthony hesitated and chose to answer the call.
"Gray Snake's intelligence officer?" The other party's voice was rough, with a hint of arrogance and questioning.
Hearing this voice, Li Yu's expression suddenly became a little strange. Isn't this Donovan? The voice of the four-armed Titan is very recognizable.
"Yes, what is your name?" Anthony asked tentatively.
"Since when does Gray Snake ask about the identity of his clients?" he asked bluntly.
"What I mean is, how should I address you in the following conversation?" Anthony readily agreed, having already thought of the reason for the explanation.
"Hmph..." Donovan reluctantly accepted the explanation: "Whatever you want to call it, you discovered an unknown fleet in the Ancient Channel some time ago, right?"
He went straight to the point without saying more.
"Yes, sir, to be precise... they are not unknown." Anthony answered under Li Yu's guidance.
"Oh?" Donovan was a little surprised. He heard Anthony 's hint and then asked suspiciously, "But that's not what you Gray Snakes said."
"I just received intelligence that the black fleet came from the Meditation Institute." Anthony then spoke.
"It's them..." Donovan was obviously not surprised.
They are purchasing intelligence now in order to find out what forces are currently in the ancient waterway so that they can prepare countermeasures.
They would not be surprised by any force appearing in the Ancient Channel, except the Glorious Council.
"Do you know their specific actions?" Donovan asked.
Anthony looked at the instructions and repeated, "I'm tracking it now. I should know soon."
"Chasing the Meditation Fleet, you don't seem to be a simple intelligence officer..." Donovan said meaningfully.
" Now the client still wants to know the identity of the intelligence agent?" Anthony repeated to him what Donovan had said not long ago.
"Ha ha……"
Amidst loud laughter, Donovan hung up the call.
Anthony took a deep breath again and relaxed a little. He could vaguely feel that the storm sweeping across the ancient waterway was about to come.
The masked man in front of him is the eye of the storm, and perhaps he is also the one fueling the storm.
However, he doesn't care about that now, he just wants to survive.
"Well done..." Li Yu praised casually, and Anthony immediately said: "It is my honor to serve you."
…
Ten days later, Malygos Keel was one of the beacons of the entire ancient route.
The entire ancient waterway is unpredictable. Many uninhabited planets appear inexplicably and are then wiped out by various disasters.
However, there are a few places that always exist, and no matter what kind of disaster happens, they cannot be harmed.
It is commonly known as the beacon in the Ancient Waterway, and Malygos Keel is such a place.
Those were the remains of a dead Malygos dragon. Malygos is extremely rare in the entire universe.
The last news report of someone encountering Malygos was over 1,300 years ago.
It is an extremely powerful species of dragon with terrifying strength. It is said that the void dragon breath from its mouth can easily destroy a planet with life.
The dragon bones stretch for hundreds of thousands of kilometers, and the skull alone is as large as an ordinary life planet.
Logically speaking, the bones of creatures of this level are also excellent forging materials.
However, many research institutes have explored this place, but they all left shaking their heads.
Because after research, it was found that the essence of it had been lost, and it was located in an ancient waterway, making it too difficult to develop.
There are always various disasters, which leads to no one wanting to touch this thing.
More than five thousand warships were docked on the huge skull, with various concealment devices deployed around them to avoid being discovered.
Das was reporting the situation in the command room: "We followed the clues left by the Hermit Team and went to several places, but found nothing."
In front of him were three figures wearing black combat uniforms, led by a woman. The tight combat uniform outlined her hot figure, and her beautiful appearance made people unable to help but linger.
It was the commander of the Blood Rose - Keya!
"It's too troublesome to do things in the Ancient Waterway. We have to take all kinds of situations into consideration, and there are disasters that occur from time to time." Soli complained.
The strangeness of the Ancient Waterway is well known. Perhaps this is why the Hermit Team chose to hide here when facing pursuit.
"Hehe..." Keya chuckled twice: "Sir Soli, making excuses is not what a commander should do."
Soli wanted to refute, but looking at Keya's delicate face and lively eyes, he couldn't help blushing and couldn't say a word to refute.
Seeing his old brother like this, Das couldn't help but secretly complain, shook his head and said: "Commander Keya, it's good that you are here, otherwise we really don't know what to do next."
Das gently pushed the ball to Keya. In the current situation, they have been stuck in a quagmire. As time goes by, many forces that have received the news are sending troops here.
In addition, they really couldn't find the Hermit Team, which put Das under increased pressure. He didn't want to be the commander anymore, otherwise he would definitely be the one to take the blame.
Keya did not answer, but instead asked: "I heard that you lost track of Li Yu."
The sudden mention of this name made Das and Soli a little confused.
"Does Li Yu have anything to do with this?" Das asked with a frown.
"It's okay, I'm just asking casually." Keya smiled charmingly, leaving them a little confused.
"In that case..." Das was about to speak when suddenly a frantic alarm sounded in the command room:
"An unknown warship has been detected approaching, it's huge!"
"An unknown warship has been detected approaching, it's huge!"
Everyone's faces changed drastically. Due to the influence inside the ancient waterway, their detection equipment was compressed to an extremely close distance.
This means that the unknown group of warships is very close to them.
Sure enough, the next moment... the void near Malygos's dragon bone began to distort, and a large number of black fleets appeared here.
The alarms in the combat command room also changed accordingly.
"Alarm, alarm, high energy reaction detected, please take shelter in advance!"
Countless spots of light suddenly appeared in the void, and then countless high-energy particle cannons approached the coalition forces in an instant.
It brushed past the shields of the spaceships and disappeared in the distance. A few spaceships that didn't have time to dodge were hit, and their shields flickered.
"So decisive, they opened fire as soon as they met." Keya's eyes narrowed.
Fortunately, although their fleet was at anchor, the energy supply was not shut down due to the special circumstances of the ancient waterway.
The particle cannon bombardment created ripples on the battleship's barrier, illuminating the void.
…
In Iris's spaceship, Anthony, who was trying to connect various clues, suddenly heard the masked man's order.
"Set sail for Malygos's keel!"
The cold voice made him turn around and look at the cold mask. He thought again and again, gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, the area where the Void Dragon Bone is located is already the core area of this ancient waterway. It is extremely dangerous. What are you doing there?"
"Watch the show..." Li Yu had a strange expression under the mask. He didn't expect that the Meditation Fleet would actually go to ambush Guixing.
If we follow the original trajectory, which is Iris's future, it is most likely that he is the one who finds the Meditation Fleet now, and he is also the one who fights against the Meditation Fleet.
After just a few days of waiting, the future he saw was changed.
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Just go when the master tells you to go!" Stanley scolded.
"Yes!" Anthony didn't dare to say anything else and honestly drove the spaceship away.
