Chapter 365: The Secret of the Predecessor
With the help of instruments, the two halves of Dego's body have been repaired and he can barely stand up.
This is the power of A-level life forms. Even seemingly serious injuries will take time to repair and the ability to move will be restored quickly.
"Should we go in?" Several captains of the Reformer teams asked in a low voice, looking around vaguely.
Several members of the Jedi team were cleaning up the battlefield. The enemy's combat effectiveness was indeed very strong, but these few people alone could not stop them from escaping.
"I suggest you don't seek death." A strange voice sounded in everyone's ears. They looked down and saw that the person who spoke was the little kid next to Mia.
His hair was messy, and his leather jacket had a lot of repairs and unknown dark brown stains.
"Where did this child come from?" Someone frowned and looked at Mia?
"It was that person's... subordinates..." Mia didn't say clearly who it was, but everyone knew it.
Strictly speaking, Peter was not Li Yu's subordinate, but more like a handyman, but he now acquiesced without explanation.
"Kid, what do you think?" someone asked in a bad tone.
Peter's words were very rude, and with the death of many teammates, everyone was in a bad mood and had a poor attitude.
Peter was not afraid of being stared at by everyone. After all, he had been intimidated by Anthony before, and he had worked as a handyman on the Dunbu for a few days, which greatly broadened his horizons.
These remaining reformers can no longer scare him.
"You were just rescued by adults, but you left quietly without any expression. Isn't this seeking death?"
Peter's nonchalant expression, his slightly flushed cheeks, was enough to reveal his inner unrest.
Too exciting.
These people were all advanced life forms far superior to him, and there were even some of the rumored A-level life forms, but they were all terrified by his words.
This feeling is so great.
Dego squinted his eyes and looked at little Peter. His wrinkled face suddenly broke into a chrysanthemum-like smile:
"This kid is right. It would be very rude if we left so abruptly, and our mission is not yet complete."
"Do you want to... continue?" Someone looked hesitant. The experimental base had been occupied by Li Yu and was the opponent's trophy.
Trying to continue the mission is like snatching food from a tiger's mouth.
"We can propose a deal. The other party's goal is completely different from ours." Dego shook his head.
Because...their mission is top secret, and even he doesn't know what the value of the mission target is.
Little Peter's eyes moved slightly. He had been hanging out at Tanbul Hub for a long time and knew what valuable information was.
Then, he pretended to be casual and asked, "What is your mission? Maybe I can plead for you."
"Boy, are you begging for us?" Some people laughed out of anger. Did this boy think they were idiots?
Although the internal structure of this group is unclear, it can be seen from Peter's dress that his status is definitely not high.
"I'm not talking to you..." Little Peter looked at Dego with his nose up. It was not that he was too arrogant, but that Dego was too tall, so he could only look up at him.
Dego saw a flash of cunning in little Peter's eyes.
This kid is very smart. The idea flashed through Dego's mind, and then he looked at little Peter and said with a smile: "Then I'll leave it to you, little brother."
Dego can use Little Peter's mouth to test whether this thing is feasible, and Little Peter can also use this to increase his sense of presence, which is a win-win situation.
…
The heavy metal hatch slowly opened, accompanied by a shrill warning sound.
"Warning, you are about to enter the energy core. Please wear protective equipment to avoid being burned by high temperatures."
After passing through layers of isolation hatches, Li Yu finally arrived at the real energy core, which was an extremely large space.
Through the high-temperature resistant glass cover, you can clearly see the core fragments of the star in the center, like a small sun, emitting blazing light and heat.
Even with various cooling measures, you can still feel the temperature rising in the space.
However, the people present are not ordinary life forms, and this high temperature cannot do anything to them.
Li Yu's figure disappeared, and he directly used his space jumping ability to pass through the large amount of protective equipment in front of him and came to the core fragments of the star.
This piece of stellar core fragment is slightly larger than the one Li Yu obtained before, and its terrifyingly high temperature distorts the surrounding space.
It is converted into high-purity energy in special equipment and transported to various places in the experimental base.
Li Yu stretched out his hand, and the [Titan Colonial Suit] covered it, turning it into a chaos color, increasing its defense to support Li Yu in taking down the core fragments of the star.
As soon as the core fragments of the star were removed, the entire experimental base began flashing red alarms, and lights everywhere quickly went out. The backup energy source was urgently activated, and dim lights came on, barely allowing people to see.
His other hand was holding a compressed energy ball. The two completely different energy aggregates were slightly closer, as if they were about to explode.
Li Yu let the fission colonization suit temporarily wrap the core fragments of the star. After being blessed by the Force, it could barely withstand it for the time being.
It is difficult for space compression devices to carry such energy aggregates, which can easily make the compressed space extremely unstable and extremely risky.
"I have to go take care of some things. Please take care of this place until I come back." Li Yu instructed Stanley.
"clear. "
Stanley responded in a deep voice, making designated fine-tuning in the internal channel.
Li Yu left the experimental base and arrived in the deep space orbit.
He first threw the energy compression ball in his hand away. The violent energy explosion spread, making many citizens on the main star of Upper Gilbert very confused, as if they had seen a second small sun.
The high-energy warning caused chaos in Gilbert's residence.
Li Yu took out the fragment of the star's core and, just like last time, swallowed it directly by following the same pattern.
After another gene liberation, he was surrounded by golden thunder, magma emerged from the void, and his entire body was shrouded in an intense light.
Then the red-gold light began to expand, and Kalets appeared again!
This time the energy reaction was far more violent than the last time. It exploded again, and more people saw the third small sun in the sky.
[Near-Death Reincarnation] was activated, and Li Yu's body quickly repaired itself in space and soon returned to normal.
I can clearly feel that my strength has increased slightly again, and I feel like I'm almost full.
After turning on the gene detection device, it was found that the progress of gene chain development had reached 98%.
Although it was not maxed out right away, it would be maxed out in just half a month by using the spirit tempering device.
"Everything is ready, only the east wind is missing." Li Yu muttered, and then he waited for the superhuman genes brought by clone No. 1.
The body turned into a stream of light, breaking through the atmosphere like a meteor, ready to return to the experimental base.
…
Anthony looked at the message sent from the smart terminal, deep thought emerged in his snake eyes, and then he took Carol to a certain direction of the experimental base.
Gust was waiting calmly for Li Yu to arrive, but the sudden energy warning surprised him.
"Warning, energy is exhausted. The backup energy has been activated and can only last for three hours. Please restore the energy supply as soon as possible."
Little Chaos has taken over the entire experimental base, and his subordinates' operational authority has been stripped away. Gust has no idea what is happening now.
"Energy exhausted? The energy in the core fragments of the star can last at least ten years, how could it be exhausted?" Gust was puzzled, and then a guess emerged. The other party took away the core fragments of the star?
He felt it was a little funny that when his experimental base was breached, the first people they looked for were not him, but fragments of the stellar core?
Although the value of the stellar core fragments is not low, he is far inferior to this.
boom!
Li Yu landed in the experimental base again. He had not been away for long, only about half an hour in total.
And it is mainly consumed in absorbing the core fragments of stars.
"Sir, there are 3752 people in the entire experimental base, and 254 of them have resisted. They have been detained and are awaiting your decision." Stanley quickly stepped forward to report:
"Gust is currently in the control room of the experimental base. The hatch has been locked and is under our surveillance."
Li Yu nodded and ordered, "Notify the people on the Dunbu to drive the spacecraft over. It's time for us to leave."
"Yes..." Stanley quickly opened the smart terminal. At this moment, Anthony also found him and whispered:
"My Lord, I have found the target of those reformers."
"Oh?" Li Yu raised his eyebrows and looked behind Anthony. There was a haggard boy who did not look very old. There were red friction marks on his wrists and ankles.
From the surface, there was nothing surprising, but as he slowly raised his head and looked at Li Yu, his eyes were a little confused at first, and then suddenly shrank, and he subconsciously said: "It's you!?"
Since he had just released his genetic liberation form and activated [Near-Death Reincarnation], Li Yu now looked like himself without any disguise.
"Do you know me?" Li Yu was a little surprised. Is his reputation so big that even guys like prisoners know him?
"How... did you escape!?" the young man asked excitedly. He wanted to step forward but was blocked by Anthony.
"Hmm?" Hearing this, Li Yu narrowed his eyes . It seemed that the other party's way of knowing him was different from what he imagined.
"How did you escape?" Li Yu asked. Anthony injected this guy with a nutrient potion to prevent him from fainting due to excitement.
After the initial excitement, the other party gradually calmed down and shook his head:
"Like... too much like him, but you can't be him. You're too strong. It can't be him."
Li Yu looked at the other person, with some vague guesses in his mind. Could it be related to his obscure predecessor?
The secret of the predecessor... the mission of the transformer... there seemed to be a thread connecting them.
"My friend, you'd better speak clearly, otherwise it will be difficult for us to understand you," Anthony reminded.
"I should be the person you are talking about." Li Yu said frankly: "But I had some accidents later and lost a lot of memory, so my memory of the past is not clear."
The other party was obviously finding it hard to believe. He looked Li Yu up and down. He had some rough guesses in his mind about what kind of power would be needed to break into this experimental base.
It has only been five years since the chaos. How could the other party have reached this point?
"My name is Li Yu now, what's your name?" Li Yu asked proactively.
"Li Yu..." He repeated the name with indescribable envy, then shook his head and said, "I'll still call myself No. 16."
Number sixteen?
Li Yu's heart moved slightly. Generally speaking, people are named after numbers, and they are either dead men or experimental subjects.
Judging from the current situation, the other party is more like an experimental subject.
After thinking for a moment, he asked, "What number was I?"
"You are number one..." Number 16 whispered, "You are the oldest among us."
"We..." Li Yu paused and asked again: "What is it? A clone?"
"No..." Number 16 shook his head: "We are children carefully selected from all over the Star Empire for the purpose of conducting some kind of experiment."
Although Li Yu had no requirements in this regard and could not change it, he felt a lot more relaxed when he heard that he was not a clone. At least he didn't have to feel disgusted.
Number Sixteen told what he knew, but he didn't know much, just a general idea.
He didn't know what experiments were being conducted, where the laboratory was, or who was behind it.
He only knew that there were a total of 100 people in their group, but 72 of them died during the progress of the experiment.
In an unknown attack, the experimental base was destroyed, and they were rescued and taken to various places in the Star Empire.
No. 16 didn't know who saved them, but he remembered some fragments of information, and the experimental base they were in was just a branch.
There are also many experimental bases throughout the Star Empire where similar experiments are being conducted.
No. 16 traveled to many places and originally wanted to leave the Star Empire and find a small civilization to spend the rest of his life in peace and stability.
But it was discovered by the Amethyst Civilization and sent to Gust for research.
"Interesting..." Li Yu listened to No. 16's words and combined them with the information he already knew.
The experiments they conducted on him must be related to Titan, otherwise he would not have been able to achieve the "unity of soul and flesh" so easily.
The mastermind behind this is most likely the Loren family, otherwise they wouldn't have been eyeing Li Yu covetously.
The one who can fight against the Loren family in the Star Empire is not a reformer, but most likely another great noble.
Their purpose may not be to save people, but simply to disrupt the Loren family's experimental progress.
But he still has a doubt. The Reformer sent someone to rescue No. 16, and it is very likely that he has found out Li Yu's origins through some channel.
But according to the agreement made by both parties, after the reformers found out his origins, they should tell Li Yu in exchange for Kerry and the Kerry siblings.
But now the Reformer didn't contact him, but was secretly trying to save No. 16. This is interesting.
What did the reformers find out that made them change their minds? Instead of notifying Li Yu, they chose to take action on their own.
