Chapter 346: Sudden News
In the Ancient Channel, on a desolate planet, looking down from the sky, the ground was cracked due to dryness.
Apart from the yellow sand flying all over the sky, there is almost no other color on the ground.
The wrecked spacecraft was almost buried in the yellow sand, and its hull was severely dented, as if it had dived from a high altitude and crashed here, and its engine nozzle was filled with yellow sand.
Amid the howling wind and flying yellow sand, a figure was vaguely walking towards them. His armor was full of cracks, but he was wearing a helmet that was still in good condition.
Bang!
The hatch of the wrecked spacecraft was suddenly kicked open, and there was a person inside, wrapped in medical gauze, as if he had been seriously injured.
"Wade, have you found the repair materials?" he asked.
"Captain..." Vader shook his head: "This planet is too desolate. Even underground, we can't find materials to repair the spacecraft."
Farley sighed. He had estimated that 99% of the barren planets in the Ancient Channel did not have any valuable mineral resources.
Leaning against the cabin, he looked at the sandstorm sweeping across the sky and earth, and said self-deprecatingly: "I fought my way out of the enemy's ambush, but I didn't expect to be trapped on this planet."
Most A-class life forms still rely on spaceships to move between stars, except for those A-class life forms with special abilities, such as DarkStar.
This is even more true in the ancient waterways. If you don't have a spaceship, you won't even have a chance to escape when faced with a sudden disaster.
"Captain, Guixing will not give up on us. They must be looking for us outside." Wade comforted.
"Of course they are looking for us..." Farley took out a silver-white metal mechanical box, entered the key, and opened the mechanical box easily.
A bright light emanated from the mechanical box, and Wade couldn't help but stick his head over to look. This was their mission target - the Heart of the Titan.
Farley reached out and took out the fist-sized brilliant crystal from the mechanical box. He stared at the dreamlike crystal and gradually lost his mind:
"The Heart of Titan is still here. They won't give up the search. What I'm worried about is that the first people to find us are not our own..."
"Is this the Heart of the Titan?" Vader couldn't help but ask curiously.
Before, they strictly followed the mission procedures, and except for the captain, the other team members had no chance to see the Titan's Heart.
"Here, take a look..." Farley glanced at him and casually threw the Heart of the Titan to Vader.
Wade was startled and quickly reached out to catch this extremely precious treasure.
"Captain!" He couldn't help but shout, "This is a confidential mission, how could you just throw it to me !"
Farley laughed: "You are almost dead, and you haven't even seen what you are protecting. Don't you think it's a pity?"
Wade seemed to want to say something, but staring at the brilliant crystal in his hand, he swallowed his words back into his stomach.
He was indeed a little curious, as it was said that this thing was the corpse of the legendary Titan that had been weathered for a long time.
"I feel much clearer, my vision seems to be clearer, and the blood flow in my body is much faster..." Wade murmured.
"This thing is actually exactly the same as the rumors say. Carrying it with you can improve your mental and physical strength."
He couldn't help but say, "If I keep this thing, my gene chain development progress will probably only take five years to reach 100%."
"Improving the progress of gene chain development, you are the one who came up with this idea." Farley sneered, "Do you think His Highness Titus went to so much trouble to get this thing just to improve the progress of gene chain development?"
"Then what else can this thing do?" Wade asked puzzledly.
"This thing... can do so many things." Farley said meaningfully, but Wade couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Captain, you don't know what this thing can do, and you're still pretending to fool me."
Exposed by Wade, Farley turned his head away in embarrassment, muttering something.
"Hey... why is this thing suddenly flashing?" Wade asked puzzledly.
Haha... you still know how to find a way out for me. The Heart of the Titan has not had any other abnormalities since it came into my hands. You don’t even know how to use a better excuse.
Farley thought that Wade just wanted to ease the awkward atmosphere, so he turned his head again and was about to say something when he suddenly frowned.
I saw that the Heart of the Titan was actually flashing in Vader's hand.
"How could this happen?" Farley was puzzled.
"Captain..." Vader thought carefully and guessed, "Do you think it's because the Titan Heart discovered my extraordinary potential and is giving me a hint?"
"Get lost!" Farley said angrily, "Read less interstellar biographies. After all, he is an A-level life form. Why does he act like a chuunibyou patient?"
As he was speaking, a sense of alertness suddenly rose in his heart. Farley raised his head suddenly and his pupils contracted.
At some point a white spaceship appeared above their heads!
"Not good!" Farley's face changed immediately, and Wade, who had just reacted, grabbed Farley's shoulder and evacuated from here quickly like a stream of light!
Bang!
However, just as they rushed into the yellow sand, Farley and Wade flew back. They fell to the ground, quickly stood up, and faced the cage with their backs, staring around vigilantly.
In the yellow sand on all sides, several powerful figures vaguely appeared, forming an encirclement that surrounded the two people in the center.
"Hand over the Heart of the Titan..." One of them hooked his fingers at the two of them, his tone flat.
Vader's eyes were fierce, but he heard Farley say: "Will giving you the Heart of the Titan allow us to live?"
Wade looked at Farley in disbelief, but Farley was calm: "We had hope of escaping the previous ambush, so we must try our best."
"But in this situation, even if we try our best, there is no possibility of winning. In this case, why not save our lives?"
"You are still useful." Zeke jumped down from the spaceship, causing sand rings to burst out from the ground. The threat emanating from him made the two men change color again.
"We really can't fight..." Farley advised, "Just give them the things."
Wade's face changed several times, and finally he looked a little dejected, and threw the Titan's Heart in his hand away.
Zeke took the Titan's Heart and nodded with satisfaction, and the flashing light of the Titan's Heart also reached its peak.
"Do you have a way to locate the Heart of the Titan!?" Farley suddenly realized, and at the same time he was guessing the other party's origins.
There are only a handful of forces in the entire universe that have this ability.
"This has nothing to do with you..." Zeke put away the Titan Heart and looked at the two of them: "There is one more thing that I need your help with."
"Contact Li Yu and tell him you need his help."
"Li Yu?" Farley and Wade looked at each other. They were familiar with this name and knew that he was the up-and-coming upstart who had recently returned to China.
The group of people in front of me have more than just the Heart of Titan as their target?
This thought flashed through Farley's mind, and he seemed a little embarrassed: "I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to do this."
"Why?" A cold light flashed in Zeke's eyes. "You are both from the same Guixing. Isn't it reasonable for him to come and pick you up?"
"This is a bit complicated..." Farley said carefully: "If we contact him immediately, he will definitely notice that something is wrong."
Even Farley knew that Li Yu was not from the Titus camp. Instead of contacting Keya, he let Li Yu come to support him. Even a fool would know that there was something wrong.
Kike was not from Guixing and did not know the twists and turns involved. After Farley's explanation, he frowned .
So, their original plan really didn't work.
He originally wanted to find the Heart of the Titan first, then lure Li Yu over, set up an ambush, capture him, and leave calmly.
Unexpectedly, this plan was shelved at the very beginning. They couldn't be so helpless against a mere Li Yu.
"That's troublesome." Zeke thought secretly.
"I have a way to make him not suspicious." Farley took the initiative to speak, just like a guide who wanted to save his life.
"You said..." Zeke looked at him.
"If I contact Li Yu alone, he will definitely be suspicious, but as long as I contact all the Guixing forces in the Ancient Channel, he will most likely not be suspicious."
Farley's proposal made Zeke sneer: "You want to lure all the people who have returned to the stars in the Ancient Channel here, and then counterattack us?"
Farley shrugged: "It's just a suggestion. It's up to you whether to take it or not."
Farley used an open strategy, and only with this method would Li Yu be least likely to be suspicious.
Kike also knew the other party's plan. If they really followed Farley's suggestion, they would definitely return to the star and fight.
And Guixing may also be able to take back the Heart of the Titan.
This guy probably doesn't know that the Guixing Fleet has been wiped out. Kicks thought that their main task was to capture Li Yu.
Although Farley's proposal was risky, they had no idea where Li Yu was now.
They have a way to locate the Heart of Titan, but they have no way to locate Li Yu.
According to the information from the headquarters, the people sent by Guixing this time are not very strong, and only Keya is worthy of attention.
Now their fleet has been completely wiped out and their strength has been greatly reduced... It is not impossible to deal with it if we prepare in advance.
Kike thought for a moment and since he had no clues about Li Yu, he could only take some risks.
…
boom!
A bloody glow burst out from Stanley's body, similar to the one on Li Yu before, but much weaker.
Li Yu nodded with satisfaction. Stanley, who had been eating steak for a few days, finally woke up.
Looking around, almost everyone was gnawing on steaks. Stanley was the first person to awaken the Red Lotus state.
"This feeling..." Stanley clenched his fists, feeling endless power in his body, and his heart was filled with shock.
He had only been following Li Yu for about two months, but his strength had leapt several levels and was completely different from before.
Anthony looked at Stanley, who was so excited that he obviously increased the speed of eating meat. He even kicked Carol, asking him to eat faster.
"Master, Lord Hunter is requesting a communication connection..."
Li Yu received Xiao Chaonao's report and nodded immediately.
The holographic screen popped up, and the hunter's big face appeared on the holographic screen, but his expression now looked a little strange.
"Why do you look like you are constipated?" Li Yu asked curiously.
Hunter explained: "This morning, the three fleets received a secret order to move closer to the Amethyst Territory and prepare for a battle that might occur at any time."
"Fight? What fight?" Li Yu asked with some confusion.
The hunter continued, "Aren't you three on a secret mission in the Ancient Channel? Of course I'm here to pick you up."
"You know all this?"
Now, Li Yu's expression turned strange. How did the hunter know about this?
"It's said in the secret transfer order, but you just temporarily gave me the authority, so I can receive it." The hunter then sent the secret transfer order to Li Yu.
Li Yu didn't care much about the title of fleet commander , and he was not proficient in fleet combat, so he transferred the highest authority to the hunter.
Looking at this secret transfer order, Li Yu's expression gradually became complicated.
The transfer order not only required the three fleets to provide superficial support.
He even asked the fleet commander to go to a certain coordinate in the ancient waterway to pick up the captain and deputy captain of the Hermit Squad who were trapped there.
The Hermit Squad is the team that escorts the Heart of the Titan.
"The news about the Titan's Heart was delivered to me just like that?"
Li Yu never expected that the news of the Heart of the Titan would be delivered to him in this way.
"This is an order from the highest command, not an order from Titus..." Li Yu stared at the order code, feeling confused.
If it was Titus' order, Li Yu would definitely not be brought along.
"That means someone bypassed Titus and issued this order." Li Yu pondered to himself.
Soli and his team also received the transfer order. According to the report from Soli's smart terminal, they were also very confused.
Keya, I personally confirmed it with Titus. Soli doesn't know the specific conversation, so Li Yu doesn't know either.
Anyway, after the conversation was over, Keya prepared to go to the coordinate location to meet up with the Hermit Team.
On the surface, there was nothing wrong with the transfer order, and Li Yu could not find any fault with it.
Now that he knew the coordinates of the Heart of Titan, Li Yu naturally could not sit idly by and prepared to go and take a look.
By the way, I glanced at the Meditation Fleet. They were completely silent and had no idea about the news.
Could it be that the stalemate battle for the Titan's Heart was going to end in such an inexplicable way? This strange thought emerged in Li Yu's mind.
However, before leaving, Li Yu decided to have his fortune told. After setting the spacecraft's flight coordinates, he began to peek into the future.
Setting the spacecraft's navigation coordinates is a given condition.
This means that in the absence of external interference, the spacecraft will arrive at the coordinate location as scheduled, which greatly narrows the future range and can indicate more accurate possibilities.
First, Stanley... Hmm... The empty starry sky, it seems there are no traces of battle...
wrong!
That is... [Apostle]!
From Stanley's perspective, it looked ordinary at first, but as he turned his head , the huge "Apostle" came into view.
He seemed to be under siege, with explosions flashing from time to time, and several tiny figures surrounding the [Apostle] and attacking!
This made Li Yu's heart tremble slightly. He mobilized the [Apostle], which must be because he encountered an emergency.
