Chapter 347: Matryoshka
The reason he was able to use the [Apostle] must have been the last moment, and the danger he faced was beyond his expectations.
Because Stanley was too far away, Li Yu did not recognize who the enemy was.
Out of Stanley's perspective, Li Yu's face was gloomy and uncertain. Everyone didn't know what was going on and could only try to keep their movements as low as possible.
When his mental strength was almost recovered, Li Yu asked Anthony to come over and began to spy on his future.
The future foreseen this time was much more vague than Stanley's, but the Apostles were also seen.
In the following time, Li Yu tried almost everyone one by one, and the future they saw was almost the same. They all saw that the [Apostle] was being besieged.
This made Li Yu look very unhappy. Everyone's future was almost the same, which meant that if he continued along the established trajectory, he would definitely be besieged by the enemy as predicted in the future.
"This is a trap." Li Yu frowned, knowing that this trap was set for him.
Because based on his understanding of himself, if things are impossible, he will definitely retreat first instead of fighting back.
Since he did not retreat in everyone's future, it means that retreat is not an option.
But he didn't know whether the trap was set by Guixing or by someone else.
Fortunately, when he was spying on Carol's future, he discovered that one of the enemies was an Anglo-Man.
This race does not belong to Guixing, and the place where they live is extremely far away from Guixing.
This also means that it is most likely not a trap set by Keya and others.
"Yes...Alexei..." Li Yu narrowed his eyes. It was Alexei's request that he was sent to the Amethyst Civilization.
Before that, Soli had secretly informed Alexei of his whereabouts, and soon afterwards a secret transfer order came.
If Keya is ruled out as a suspect, then it can basically only be Alexi, unless there is someone acting secretly that Li Yu doesn't know about.
"Bypassing Titus and directly letting the military issue a secret transfer order, this inconspicuous prince is really hiding something very deeply." Li Yu connected the things together, and the thread in his mind was roughly clear.
What Li Yu is more curious about now is whether that coordinate is where the Hermit Team is located.
Li Yu didn't believe that Alexei could directly command the military.
Therefore, there must be substantial evidence to prove that that is where the Hermit Team is located in order for the military to issue a secret transfer order.
How did Alexei get this evidence?
No one could find the Hermit Team, but Alexi, who was far away, actually got the news earlier than them.
"Sir, what happened?" Anthony came over and asked in a low voice.
He had been observing secretly, and when he saw Li Yu's expression change several times in a short period of time, he knew that something must have happened.
Li Yu glanced at Anthony, and an idea gradually emerged in his mind.
"Go contact Donovan and tell him that you have a spy in the Guixing Fleet who discovered that they are heading towards a certain coordinate." Li Yu ordered.
"Yes..." Anthony nodded hurriedly, then walked aside, found Donovan's communication link, and prepared to fool him.
Want to ambush me? Then be prepared for a complete catastrophe! Li Yu's eyes flashed with a dangerous light.
…
The Four-Armed Titan Fleet had originally shrunk in size after the three-way battle, but now it seems to have expanded a lot.
The Amethyst Civilization is adjacent to the Star Empire, and the time it takes for the Star Empire to send additional support is much shorter than that of other forces.
"Haha, brother Donovan, long time no see."
Two burly four-armed Titans hugged each other, patting each other's backs with their four arms.
"Commander Aruna, long time no see." Donovan pushed the other person away and greeted him, but not too enthusiastically.
The previous hug was a custom of their race. Even if he hated the other person, Donovan had no choice but to hug him.
Aruna looked a bit more muscular than Donovan. He seemed to ignore Donovan's indifference and laughed:
"The Legion Commander has praised you many times. This time you need support, and I will be the first to respond."
The Four-Armed Titan Legion is a colonial legion of the Star Empire. Its fleet size reaches hundreds of thousands. In addition to the legion commander, there are ten senior commanders.
Donovan and Aruna are two of them.
Donovan sneered in his heart. This Aruna was not someone who was easy to deal with. He was teasing him in every word.
"Thanks for your help." Donovan said in a lukewarm manner.
Aruna continued: "Brothers like you and I can definitely grab the Heart of Titan together, and then take down that Li Yu and wash away your shame."
Donovan snorted coldly. He was very dissatisfied with Aruna's words. It was clearly a hint that he was useless.
At this moment, the new smart terminal on his arm rang. He glanced down, his face flickering, and said to Aruna: "Sorry, urgent information."
"Please go ahead..." Aruna said immediately. After Donovan left, the smile on his face disappeared and contempt appeared in his eyes.
A great achievement is right in front of you. If you can't get it, don't blame me for stealing it. The Heart of the Titan, Li Yu... they are all mine!
"Hello..." Anthony's hoarse voice made Donovan frown. Because Aruna's previous behavior made him very unhappy, he didn't have a good attitude towards Anthony:
"Gray Snake's intelligence officer, what do you want?"
He just used the excuse of urgent intelligence to get rid of Aruna's entanglement and did not expect the other party to provide key information.
"I wonder if you still need intelligence on that fleet..." Anthony asked.
Meditation? The most important thing now is the Heart of Titan and Li Yu. He doesn't care much about the information about meditation.
Donovan was about to refuse, but then he thought that in order to seize the Heart of the Titan, he might have to fight with Meditation, so it seemed okay to listen to the other party's intelligence.
"Tell me any new information you have. If I need it, let Gray Snake give me an estimate," Donovan said impatiently.
"According to the intelligence I received, the fleet started moving in a certain direction after stopping for several days. Do you need the coordinates?" Anthony narrated.
Li Yu asked him to use the information about Guixing to trick Donovan into going there, but in Donovan's impression, he had been digging up information about the Meditation Fleet before.
Suddenly mentioning the whereabouts of the Guixing Fleet now is likely to arouse suspicion.
So he took the initiative to use the Meditation Fleet instead. Anyway, he just had to trick Donovan to the target location.
"Heading in a certain direction?" Donovan folded his arms. This was most likely just a routine movement of the Meditation Fleet, but it could also be heading towards a certain target.
Anthony said casually, "Strangely enough, my people said that they encountered a large-scale red tide on their way forward. They spent a lot of time bypassing the red tide, as if they had a purpose."
"Oh?" Anthony's eyebrows jumped. If it was a normal movement, if encountering a large-scale disaster, he could just change direction.
But Meditation went around it on purpose... This is interesting, could it be that... they found the location of the Heart of the Titan?
No... No matter whether the other party has found it or not, it’s always a good idea to chase after it and take a look.
Donovan remained calm, if meditation was really looking for the location of the Titan's Heart.
Then this Gray Snake intelligence agent still doesn’t know what level of intelligence he is selling.
"That's really strange. What are their current coordinates?"
Anthony was also extremely cautious, fearing that he might say something wrong and arouse suspicion from the other party.
Hearing Donovan's question, he deliberately raised his voice: "Do you want to buy this information?"
"Well, buy it first." Donovan said casually.
"Okay, it's still the same price as before. You transfer the money and I'll give you the coordinates." Anthony has not let his guard down until now and has strictly followed Gray Snake's steps.
"Okay..." Donovan nodded, but sneered in his heart, what a fool, if Meditation really found the location of the Titan's Heart.
Then the true value of this information would probably be dozens of times higher.
Anthony also laughed secretly. So what if it was a Class A life form? It was still manipulated by him.
Both of them secretly called each other idiots and ended the communication.
The coordinates provided by Anthony were naturally the coordinates of the destination, but Donovan didn't know that. He foolishly thought that was the coordinates of the Meditation Fleet's rest stop.
When he gets there, reality will give him a big surprise.
"Sir, it's done." Anthony came to report without telling Li Yu about the process and the little calculations between him and Donovan.
For big shots, they only want the final result. As for the twists and turns in the middle, they don’t care. Anthony knows this well.
Li Yu nodded. He was thinking about how to make the Meditation Fleet go to that coordinate location without any doubt.
Because there is an extremely small possibility that the person who set this trap is from the Star Empire.
If that is the case, Donovan's money would actually help the other side increase its strength.
However, Alexei and the Star Empire colluded, and these two words put together looked awkward no matter how you looked at them.
But even if there was the slightest possibility, Li Yu wanted to nip it in the bud.
Therefore, a troublemaker is needed to ensure that things will get chaotic. Only when things get chaotic can he take advantage of the situation.
Now that the facts are before him, the safest way is to evacuate immediately, regardless of the Heart of the Titan.
However, the Heart of the Titan involves a perfect life form, so Li Yu wants to give it a try no matter what.
"Oh right..." Li Yu suddenly remembered: "Little Noisy, can you restore the backdoor that the Meditation Fleet left in this system?"
"No problem, master. In fact, the backdoor program has been in my isolation area." Xiao Chaonao's answer made him feel at ease as always.
"That's good." Li Yu raised the corner of his mouth.
…
In the meditation fleet, Brooks' hair has been falling out like crazy these past few days. He didn't know if it was a sequelae of the flesh and blood deformation, or if he was angered by some interstellar human.
Contemplating the death order from the top leaders made him even more anxious.
But although he seems to be in a high position and with great power now, in fact, in the eyes of those in control, he is still a disposable tool. The only difference is whether they are willing to do so or not.
"Commander Brooks!" Terra hurried over with an excited look on her face.
Brooks' eyes suddenly darkened, and he looked at Terra grimly: "Didn't I tell you not to disturb me unless it's an emergency!?"
Terra was immediately drenched in ice water, and hurriedly said, "There is important information about Li Yu and the Heart of Titan!"
Brooks' eyes sparkled, and he said in a deep voice, "Speak!"
Terra hurriedly opened the smart terminal and called up a video, explaining, "This is the video returned by the subroutine we dropped on those scavenger ships half an hour ago."
Brooks looked at it with a frown, his expression gradually changing.
The video was sped up 30 times, but he could still capture every frame clearly.
The protagonist of the video is exactly the person he has been thinking about day and night in recent days - Li Yu!
Basically, the spaceship was sailing and then was suddenly intercepted, and the people who intercepted it were Li Yu and his younger brothers.
Terra speculated: "That strange spaceship doesn't seem to be able to sail for a long time, so it should have been wandering in the ancient channel after leaving the battlefield until it encountered this scavenger spaceship."
"But this is not the most important thing..." Terra said excitedly, quickly pulling the progress bar to the end, and then enlarging the picture in front of Li Yu, which was a holographic projection.
"What is displayed above is Guixing's secret transfer order. Guixing has found the location of Titan Star and is ordering him to go and meet it."
A powerful aura burst out from Brooks' body uncontrollably.
The frustration he had felt for the past few days was finally released at this moment. He stared at Li Yu, who seemed to be unaware of the situation, and said with a cold smile:
"No matter how cunning you are, you can't escape from my grasp!"
"Locate the coordinates of this spaceship. I want to tear it to pieces!"
Brooks had not expected that his casual action would result in such a reward. He couldn't wait to see Li Yu's astonished expression.
When Terra heard this, her expression changed slightly, and she seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"Why aren't you going yet?" Brooks frowned.
"Commander, Li Yu is abominable, but our mission is to obtain the Heart of Titan." Terra reminded carefully: "The top leaders are already very dissatisfied with us."
Brooks frowned when he heard this, and another sense of urgency surged in his heart. On one side was Li Yu, whom he wanted to eat, and on the other side was the Heart of Titan.
Terra reminded him again: "Besides, he has received a secret transfer order and will go to where the Titan's Heart is. Then you can capture both of them at the same time."
"You're right." This sentence reminded Brooks that he was too excited just now and didn't think about this.
He looked at Terra and praised her, "You did a good job."
"I dare not..." Terra said respectfully. If Brooks had not failed to complete the task and he would have been implicated, he would not have bothered to remind Brooks.
"Haha..." Brooks laughed, but his eyes were full of murderous intent. Li Yu...you don't have much time left.
…
"Huh... Fortunately, this Terra is not a fool. She didn't let Brooks come after me first."
Li Yu also learned the entire conversation between the two.
Brooks thought he was monitoring Li Yu, but in fact, it was Li Yu who was watching Brooks monitoring him, which was like a nesting doll.
