Chapter 344: Jedi and Sith
The Iron Fist team carried the bodies of the three people down, burned them into ashes in a portable high-temperature furnace, and then scattered them into the starry sky to avoid leaving any traces.
Seeing that Li Yu had no intention of paying attention to him, Anthony could not help but bite the bullet and said, "These guys are really stupid. They actually dared to think of betraying you!"
Li Yu looked up at Anthony. This guy seemed to be trying to take credit for himself, as if he was afraid that he would be ignored.
"I didn't expect that you would be so loyal to me." Li Yu said casually.
"Haha, no one can make this old snake loyal. You never know when he will bite you back." Carol in the corner couldn't help but sneered.
Anthony was angry, but helpless, as the two were old enemies.
Carol was not afraid of death, so naturally he dared to say anything. But in the current situation, he couldn't curse at the other party, so he could only turn a deaf ear and pretend not to hear.
Li Yu found it a little funny, but he didn't continue the conversation with Carol. Instead, he continued to say to Anthony: "Tell me, what do you want?"
Anthony couldn't help but hesitate. He was waiting for these words. He lowered his head and became more respectful. "I just want to be like them and do my best for you."
Anthony was very smart and did not ask Li Yu to let him go. He didn't know whether the other party would let him go, but he didn't dare to gamble.
Stanley frowned slightly. This Anthony... would find another way.
Becoming a follower of an adult seemed to mean that the other party was offering loyalty, but in fact Anthony got more.
His identity has also changed dramatically, and he is no longer a captive.
"You want to be my follower?" Li Yu was also a little surprised, but then he figured out Anthony's thoughts. He was a smart man.
It can be clearly sensed through the Force that Anthony is now filled with anxiety.
"It's not impossible..." Li Yu pondered for a moment. Anthony is a Class B life form, and he is quite cunning and has a high ability to do things.
As for the potential risk of betrayal, it is not a problem at all for Li Yu.
"Thank you, sir!" Anthony was overjoyed. This matter was much easier than he had imagined.
He thought that he would have to go through layers of tests to make sure Anthony was loyal before he would agree to his request.
In fact, for Li Yu, he doesn’t care whether Anthony is loyal or not, or what he thinks in his heart.
Anyway, after being transformed by the Force, even if you want to betray, the Force in you will not allow it.
"It's over." Li Yu waved at Anthony.
Anthony was a little confused and didn't know what Li Yu meant.
"My Lord asked you to come over here!" Stanley scolded, "Do you really think that becoming my Lord's follower is just a simple sentence?"
Anthony's worry, which had just been put at ease, suddenly became tense again. Could it be that they wanted to implant some kind of control chip or something?
Forget it. I have already prepared myself mentally. I will just complete the identity transition temporarily and we will talk about the future later.
All kinds of thoughts emerged in his mind, but on the surface his movements were not slow, and he walked straight towards Li Yu.
Li Yu raised his right hand towards Anthony, and the powerful Force surged into Anthony's body, transforming him.
Heart-wrenching pain came from all over, and Anthony's snake pupils shrank rapidly and made a hissing sound.
Everyone in the Iron Fist team has experienced the pain of Force transformation, and they all have the mentality of a veteran examining a rookie.
The transformation was completed soon after, and Anthony looked even more eerie and cold. One could vaguely see black mist lingering around him.
"Dark Force?" Li Yu raised his eyebrows. Anthony was the first person to inherit the characteristics of the dark force.
The Force he obtained from the system was pure Force, without any attributes, or it could be said to contain all attributes.
However, the Jedi Knights transformed by him cannot master all the attributes of the Force like him.
Basically all the members of the Iron Fist team are members of the Light Force, which means they are all normal people. Whether they are killing people or stealing things, they are just carrying out their mission.
But what Anthony awakened was the dark force, which means he leans towards the dark side.
Anthony gasped, a powerful force surging in his body, a force he had never controlled before.
"This kind of power... I..." Anthony raised his . The dark force shrouding them made him tremble all over.
He is now much stronger than before and can even defeat his previous self easily.
He suddenly looked up at Li Yu, and an irresistible feeling of submission spread throughout his body.
Not to mention betrayal, even some bad thoughts made the powerful force in his body restless, as if it wanted to tear his body apart.
It turns out that the other party is not afraid of my betrayal at all... Anthony realized why the other party trusted him so much. With this method, he would never betray the other party.
"My lord, I will always follow in your footsteps and become a sharp weapon in your shadow." Anthony crawled on the ground.
Li Yu nodded casually, and then said:
"Stanley, from now on the team you lead will be called Jedi."
"Anthony, form another team of your own... and call it the Sith."
Stanley was slightly stunned, then nodded in agreement, but a sense of crisis surged in his heart.
Instead of including Anthony in his rule, the lord let him lead the team alone and keep pace with him.
Naturally, he didn't dare to blame Li Yu, so he could only work harder.
"Mr. Stanley, I hope you will take good care of me in the future." Anthony greeted Stanley.
Stanley was quite hostile towards Anthony and just nodded indifferently.
Anthony could naturally feel the other party's indifference, but he didn't care. After all, there was still a long time to go.
This was just a small episode, time continued to pass, and three days passed in the blink of an eye.
The passage of time in the starry sky was almost imperceptible. After swallowing the steak in his mouth again, Li Yu sighed. He still hadn't awakened the [Red Lotus State], but he had already prepared himself mentally.
Then he turned on the genetic testing device, and the progress of the genetic chain development had jumped to 53%.
This was due to the whale core swallowed previously, plus a battle with Brooks, which increased the development progress by 3%.
If it were any other A-class genetically evolved life form, they would have probably cheered long ago if the development progress had been increased by 3% at one time.
But Li Yu curled his lips, not very satisfied, thinking about leaving through the ancient channel and getting some stellar core fragments to try.
On the other side, Anthony approached Carol leisurely. After becoming Li Yu's follower, Stan and others naturally would not trouble him anymore.
"What's the matter? Are you showing off in front of me by relying on the power of others?" Carol didn't tolerate Anthony at all and started to speak foul language as soon as he came up.
Anthony didn't care about Carol's insults. He was angry before only because Carol exposed his shortcomings in front of the adults.
He was afraid that those words would change the adults' attitude towards him. Now he has become their follower and his mentality has changed.
However, he smiled sinisterly and said, "Carol, you don't think that I have no other way to torture you except death?"
“Heh…” Carol sneered, “Come on, if I frown, I lose.”
What a jerk!? Anthony couldn't help but curse inwardly. He shook his head and said bluntly, "Are you interested in helping me?"
"Huh?" Carol dug his ears, as if he had heard something incredible: "Let me help you? Did you, old snake, take the wrong medicine?"
"I'm serious. You'd better think about it carefully. If you follow me, your future will be limitless."
Anthony took a deep breath. Although Carol's words were very rude, as an old enemy, he knew Carol's abilities very well.
Just as Stanley was hostile to him, Anthony also had no good feelings towards Stanley.
But now Stanley has a whole well-trained team under his command, and he has no one available.
I had no choice but to come to Carol with a pinched nose.
"Kneel down and beg me, and I will help you..." Carol looked at Anthony with a contemptuous tone.
Get lost, Anthony turned around and left angrily. I’m saving you, as if I can’t live without you.
Li Yu ignored the noise and continued eating the steak.
Olena looked at the half of Li Yu's face suspiciously. These past few days, she always felt that this half of the face was somewhat familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before.
Although she was a member of Guixing's secret team, her identity was not high enough before and she had never seen a real A-level life form.
Since she had an impression of it, it should be the A-level life form that appeared on TV.
In fact, there is no need for Li Yu to hide his identity from Stanley and others now.
It's just that the [Titan Colonial Suit] gave him a mechanical mask based on usage habits.
It didn't affect him, so he didn't change the instructions.
Although Li Yu only showed half of his face, his identity could be basically confirmed through the smart terminal and modeling matching.
Olena assured that she had absolutely no other thoughts in her mind and was simply curious about the adult's identity. This curiosity had lasted for several days.
She couldn't help it today, so she quietly opened the smart terminal, aimed it at the lower half of Li Yu's face, and prepared to scan it.
The next moment, two big red words suddenly popped up on the smart terminal that was originally working properly - Blocked!
Olena was slightly stunned, and then her face changed drastically. She looked at the adults anxiously. Li Yu was slightly stunned at this moment, and also cast a look at her, wondering: "Are you checking my identity?"
It has become Li Yu's habit to open the smart terminal at will. As soon as Olena makes a move, he receives a report from Xiao Chaonao.
Stanley turned pale and looked suddenly at the frightened Olena. Without any hesitation, he took action.
Bang! With a muffled sound, Olena was pinned to the metal arm of the cabin by his head, with half of his head embedded in the metal wall.
"Olena, what do you want to do!" Stanley scolded, "Why do you want to check the identity of adults!?"
Anthony was a little slow to react and regretfully dispersed the dark force in his hands. He still wanted to try out the power of this new force.
Olena did not resist. She knew Stanley was doing this for her own good and asked her to explain.
If the snake attacks first, it would be a question whether she would be able to speak now.
"Uh..." Li Yu paused, waved his hand and said, "Stanley, let Olena go."
"Sir..." Stanley was a little hesitant and uneasy, gritted his teeth and said, "Olaina has no intention of betraying you, she..."
The calmer Li Yu's reaction was, the more frightened Stanley became. Just now, when Li Yu was eating steak, he turned those three guys into empty shells.
Stanley was afraid that Li Yu really thought Olena had bad intentions.
Li Yu was helpless and shook his head and said, "Let it go, let it go. I know she didn't mean anything else."
Stanley was a little stunned. He didn't know the form of the Force, and he didn't even know that the power in him was called the Force.
However, Li Yu knew very well that as the source of the force of the universe, all other force possessors could not fight against him.
Olena's snooping behavior was just pure curiosity.
"You have followed me for a long time, but you still don't know my identity... There is indeed something wrong..." Li Yu said to himself.
This made Stanley truly certain that the adults really didn't care about this matter and trusted them very much.
Even though he was determined, he couldn't help but feel that a man should die for his friend.
Olena was even more so, she wished she could offer herself to him immediately to atone for her actions.
Anthony looked at the scene in front of him and thought for a moment. This gentleman had two completely different attitudes towards his enemies and towards his own people.
Carol watched coldly, as if she wanted to say something. She moved her lips but still didn't say anything.
The mask on Li Yu's face peeled off layer by layer, revealing his true face. Everyone couldn't help but hold their breath and cast their eyes on the young handsome guy in front of them.
Stanley's pupils contracted, as if he recognized Li Yu. Olena's eyes widened, and the other Jedi members had similar reactions.
They are people from Guixing, and are not unfamiliar with this face; they can even be called familiar with it.
Guardian of the Returning Star——Li Yu, Sword Bearer Medal, Gold Cross Medal, Honorary Baron, Commander of the Meteoric Fleet...
Unexpectedly, the person they were following was Li Yu, a very powerful A-level life form who had caused many huge waves.
Fighting his way to protect the Vetter Galaxy, identifying the origin of the virus, and the inside story of the Sword Bearer Medal... these things brought him mixed reviews.
Stanley took a deep breath. No matter what, they were now bound to Li Yu.
Anthony didn't recognize Li Yu. He had been in the Lant Hub all year round, and most of the information he came across was related to ancient waterways. He didn't have much energy to pay attention to the news of other civilizations.
"You are... Li Yu!"
Carol's shout brought everyone back to their senses. No one expected that the first name called out would be his.
After Carol called out the name, Anthony suddenly realized who Li Yu was - a high-ranking wanted criminal in the Xingyao Empire, who later seemed to have joined Guixing.
As for more, he didn't understand.
But Carol could call out the adults' names at a glance, there must be something fishy!
From what he knew about Carol, this guy usually spent his days either picking up trash in the Ancient Waterway or getting drunk in the Lant Hub.
Carol is not good at gathering intelligence, unless something Carol cares about is directly related to Li Yu.
Then, under Anthony's puzzled gaze, Carol gritted her teeth and said, "It was you who defiled the mermaid princess!"
Li Yu's eyes suddenly froze, and a series of question marks appeared above his head.
