Chapter 373: The Wisdom of Sast!
Although Sast felt very familiar with this skin, he did not let down his guard. He even asked Li Yu not to be too far away from him to facilitate his surveillance.
"This is my friend, Coulson. He heard that I was fighting the Amethyst Royal Family and came all the way to help me."
Sast introduced Li Yu to everyone in the command room. Li Yu had a gentle smile on his face, but it did not feel like a programmed smile. He looked very sincere.
"Hello everyone..." he greeted.
Originally, people in the Star Empire had little interest and were too lazy to bother with this bald middle-aged man.
But every time I looked at him, I always felt like I had seen him somewhere before, and there was an inexplicable sense of familiarity. It was like an old friend I hadn't seen for many years.
It was this inexplicable sense of intimacy that made them nod towards Li Yu and introduce themselves.
This group of foreign players from the Star Empire were extremely leisurely and did not take action easily. Most of the time they stayed here and watched the show.
Even a certain big boss who was hiding in the corner like a rock nodded slightly to Li Yu.
He is the strongest among this group of people, his name is Capone. Li Yu can feel a strong sense of threat from him.
"Where is Mr. Coulson from? Why do I feel like we've met somewhere before?"
Uruul came up and spoke. He was an orc with thick hair and a strong smell of sweat.
No one came within four or five meters.
"I like traveling across the stars. Maybe we have met each other somewhere." Li Yu nodded calmly.
"Maybe this is possible. Let me think about it." Uruul fell into deep thought, as if he was thinking about where the two had met before.
No one doubted Coulson's background because they could not think of any possibility of betrayal by Sast.
Sast glanced at them and ignored Li Yu who had already mingled with everyone. Instead, he opened the star map and arranged the next battle plan.
…
In the bizarre jump channel, the black spaceship shaped like a water droplet was sailing quickly. On the holographic screen in front of Morgan, Marta was reporting:
"It looks like he has stopped at that battlefield, determined to use the power of the battlefield to fight you. You'd better prepare early."
"If his identity is exposed, he will be doomed. With my identity and strength, I will be welcomed no matter which faction I join." Morgan seemed to have his own plan:
"As long as I can determine which faction he belongs to, I can force them to hand him over, unless..."
Having said that, Morgan paused. He did not underestimate Li Yu. The fact that the other party could use this chaotic battlefield to fight against his pursuit proved that this guy had the courage to fight for his life.
Li Yu arrived at the battlefield earlier than him and had the advantage of being the first to move, which inevitably led to some variables.
However, he came from the Ark of Savior. Neither Sast nor the Amethyst Royal Family could kill him. This was also one of his strengths.
At this moment, Marta saw the flickering expression on Morgan's face, hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said:
"Lord Morgan, not long ago I secretly used the Overmind to search for the greatest possibilities for your future, and found nothing abnormal or signs of battle."
"Hmm?" Hearing this, Morgan's expression suddenly changed. He was not relieved, but displeased. He scolded:
" Who allowed you to act on your own? Are you qualified to use the Overlord? "
As the most important secret of the Ark of Salvation, the use of the Overmind requires a series of reporting procedures.
Marta's behavior is equivalent to overstepping his authority. If it is exposed, even he will be blamed.
"Please forgive me, sir. If the organization holds me accountable, I will take full responsibility." Marta said in panic.
Morgan frowned and said coldly: "No need, I have worked for Ark for so many years, it is more than enough for me to protect you."
"If this mission is successful, the top brass will turn a blind eye. You don't have to worry."
"Thank you, sir..." Marta breathed a sigh of relief, the tension in his heart dissipated, and a feeling of excitement surged in his heart, he had made the right bet.
From today on, his position in Morgan's heart will be completely different.
"Continue searching, don't miss any clues, and analyze which faction he is hiding in."
Morgan hung up the phone and shook his head. It was like this in any organization. People at the bottom tried desperately to climb up, even at the risk of their own lives.
However, Marta has followed him for a long time. This time the other party has bet his life, so he should show some expression, otherwise who will stick with him in the future.
And the most crucial point is that Marta eliminated the hidden danger in his mind. Since there is a high probability that there will be no fighting in his future, it means that this mission is a sure thing.
He had the support of the Ark of Savior and paid enough attention to dealing with Li Yu. He really couldn't imagine any possibility of failure.
The only thing we need to prevent now is that the other party will go all out and reveal their identity, allowing multiple forces to intervene.
He was thinking about how to deal with the situation while getting closer and closer to the battlefield.
As time passed, two days went by quickly, during which time there were many small-scale frictions between the Amethyst Royal Family and Sast.
However, a large-scale war was not launched easily and it is still in a period of rest and recuperation.
"Heh... Emperor Amethyst has passed on a call request to the Emperor again. Even at this point, he's still thinking of letting him go."
Uruel chatted casually, and everyone had their own channels of information, so they started talking.
Sast's heart skipped a beat and almost jumped out of his throat. Could it be that my stupid royal brother had reached a deal with Li Yu?
Another person said, "This Purple Crystal Emperor is very cunning. I don't know how many small tricks he has done secretly. The top leaders of the empire have long been dissatisfied with him."
Another added: "It is said that the top brass directly rejected his request for a call. With just one sentence, they wanted the Empire to let him go. Who does he think he is? "
“…”
When Sast heard this, he couldn't help but feel relieved. Fortunately... Fortunately, the Amethyst Emperor didn't get the Heart of the Titan.
But this incident raised a sense of urgency in his heart. Ever since he learned that the Amethyst Royal Family intended to make a deal with Li Yu, he felt very uneasy.
If the Star Empire really let the Amethyst Royal Family go, his position would become very embarrassing.
Li Yu listened quietly at the side. Many people gathered around him to talk, and some even kindly explained to him the ins and outs of the matter.
On the surface, the Star Empire issued a statement that it would not interfere in Amethyst's internal affairs, but anyone with a little intelligence could see that this was just an official perfunctory statement.
So everyone didn't avoid calling him "Colson".
"This guy is quite popular. If the people of the Star Empire knew that he was actually a member of the Reformers, their faces would be very interesting..."
Sast was thinking in his heart, and actually had a vague sense of anticipation.
At this moment, his signalman suddenly reported: "Your Highness, a high-energy reaction was detected, suspected to be a Class A life form, and the other party claimed to be your friend - Marta."
"Oh?" Sast's eyes flickered as he looked at the black spaceship shaped like a water drop on the screen.
Just as Coulson said, the other party did not introduce himself and only contacted me, not wanting the people of the Star Empire to know.
Li Yu's eyes moved slightly, but no one noticed. His muscles tensed slightly, then relaxed. Morgan - the blood sea, finally came...
"Everyone, I'll go and receive them..." Sast said to everyone with a calm expression.
The people of the Star Empire did not care too much. During the war, there were many A-level beings recruited by Sast who came to join the war in advance.
Someone even said to Li Yu: "Colson, this friend of Sast, haven't you met him before? Why don't you go and greet him?"
Li Yu shook his head and said in a gentle voice: "I seem to have heard Sast talk about it, but we don't know each other. Let them catch up first."
“…”
Morgan was waiting in the spaceship, surrounded by huge warships that locked him tightly, but he was not worried.
"...According to Marta's information, there is a high possibility that Li Yu is hiding in Sast's camp..."
This was not beyond his expectations. Sast's current power far exceeded that of the Amethyst Royal Family, and with the help of the Star Empire, it was the best choice to fight against him.
"Please follow the instructions, Your Excellency. His Royal Highness is waiting to meet you."
A voice came over the regional radio, and several aircraft were guiding him to a warship.
Morgan was a little surprised that the other party did not verify his identity but chose to meet him directly, which made him vaguely uneasy.
His spaceship entered a certain warship, but before he disembarked, Sast himself walked up with a certain urgency.
Morgan was keenly aware that there was no surprise or confusion in the other person's eyes when he looked at him, as if he really knew him.
You have to know that he was pretending to be Sast's friend, and the two of them didn't know each other at all.
But now Sast seemed to know everything, and there was something weird about everything, which made Morgan very uneasy.
"People from the Ark of Salvation?" Sast came straight to the point. There were only two of them on the entire spaceship.
He really knew!
It must be Li Yu who is doing this in secret!
I wonder what that guy is planning. Is he trying to use the power of Thaster to deal with me?
Morgan didn't play dumb, but nodded and said, "That's right."
"Are you here to see Li Yu?" Sast asked immediately.
Morgan was a little confused. Huh? That's not right... How did he know that I was looking for Li Yu?
It was impossible for Li Yu to reveal his identity and tell Sast that the people from the Ark of Savior were chasing him.
According to his expectation, Li Yu should portray him as Sast's enemy and let Sast take the initiative to attack him.
But now Sast took the initiative to expose his purpose, which made him a little confused.
What exactly is Li Yu’s plan?
"Who told you?" Sast couldn't help asking, "Li Yu?"
"You don't have to worry about this..." Sast shook his head, a trace of doubt arose in his mind, why did this guy guess it was Li Yu?
Does he think Li Yu is making a deal with me?
He did not talk about the reformers. It was the first time for both parties to meet and it was impossible to share all the information with each other. This involved a trust issue.
Morgan was immediately more confused, so he asked directly, "What is your purpose?"
"My purpose..." Sast's smile was full of meaning: "Help me destroy the Amethyst Royal Family, and I can give you Li Yu and the Heart of the Titan."
That's right, he did not listen to "Coulson" and chose to cooperate with the Reformers - to fight against the Ark of Savior together and then divide the spoils afterwards.
The reformers are being secretive, not just for the sake of two key members of the organization. Perhaps the other party wants to take over everything.
But even if the plan succeeded, and he finally gained the upper hand in the game with the Reformer and snatched the Heart of the Titan and Li Yu, it would be of no use.
The Star Empire needs the Heart of the Titan and Li Yu, but he himself doesn't need them.
With the help of the Star Empire, he is about to control the Amethyst, and even if he obtains the Heart of the Titan later, he will hand it over to the Star Empire.
The Star Empire would not give him more rewards, but would think that this was what he should do.
Therefore, cooperating with the Reformers to fight against the Ark of Salvation was not his best option.
On the contrary, you will get more if you cooperate with Ark of Savior.
By handing over the Heart of the Titan and Li Yu to them, they can also get in touch with this leading large laboratory and establish a good relationship.
As for the reformers? Go to hell, they are an unrepresentable organization.
Listening to Thaster's remarks, Morgan was not as excited as if a pie had fallen from the sky. Instead, he frowned and said, "Given the current situation, your victory is a foregone conclusion. Why bother asking me to help you?"
"I don't want a mess!" Sast said coldly, "The Star Empire only wants to give me a mess, so as to use it to pressure other subordinate civilizations."
Morgan didn't expect this to be the final result, but ... in this case, the result seems not bad.
Not only can he obtain Li Yu and the Heart of the Titan, but he can also plant a crucial chess piece in the Amethyst Civilization, which may be of great use in the future.
"Cooperation achieved..." Morgan was in a good mood. This mission was much easier than he had imagined.
He vaguely realized that Li Yu was indeed doing something in secret, but the plan did not develop as the other party expected.
Thaster chose a path that was more beneficial to him.
I overestimated him...Morgan shook his head secretly, although he knew that Li Yu would definitely not surrender, but would choose to do things secretly.
But people like Sast are not fools and will not easily believe what the other party does.
The initial cooperation was reached, and the two of them had established a foundation of trust. Morgan then asked, "What was your original plan?"
"We can join forces to deal with you, but I don't think that will be very beneficial to me," said Sast.
"You made a wise choice..." Morgan chuckled twice: "Li Yu took it for granted. No one will act blindly. Only by weighing the pros and cons can we make a better choice."
Sast was not happy when he heard the goodwill in the other party's tone. Instead, he was a little confused: "Why do you think Li Yu is cooperating with me?"
"Isn't it?" Morgan was slightly stunned and asked back.
"Of course not..." Thaster shook his head: "It's the reformer..."
"Changers?" Morgan was a little confused. When did the changers get involved?
Looking at the other person's confused eyes, Sast suddenly felt something was wrong.
At this moment, the faces of the two men changed drastically at the same time. An unimaginable gravity field suddenly formed here. The surrounding metal structures twisted instantly and made a sound of being unable to bear the weight.
