Chapter 422: Sudden attack!
"The God of Flesh and Blood - Rohan? He is here too?"
Li Yu sat in a chair and looked at the information synchronized by Horus. He was not unfamiliar with this god.
Back in the Hengfeng Galaxy, he stole this guy's faith and became a god.
This means that this guy is one of the few people who knows that he is a god.
This time, the Nightmare God team is led by him, and there are some grudges between the two of them.
But Rohan seemed to act as if nothing had happened. He had been with the expeditionary force for several days, but this guy had no reaction.
He didn't say anything sarcastic or harsh.
"These gods all have problems with their brains. They have a lot of flaws." Li Yu muttered a few words, and suddenly realized that this sentence seemed to include himself as well, and he couldn't help shaking his head.
After a while, the smart terminal suddenly rang. It was a communication message from a senior general.
Li Yu glanced at it and was a little speechless, "This Alto has nothing to do all day long."
In the past few days, many senior generals have been eager to contact Li Yu to get closer to him.
After all, he holds a high position at a young age and has a bright future, so there are few people who are hostile to him.
Otto is one of them. He is the commander of a fleet and invites Li Yu to chat and keep in touch with him almost every day.
Li Yu had nothing to do anyway, and after spending the past few days together, he had developed a pretty good relationship with this guy.
I glanced at the defense system and found it was still running smoothly, and nothing unusual was found.
The troll army and the four-armed Titan were unusually silent. It had been about ten days since their last attack.
According to the speculation of many senior generals, there should be a tentative attack in the next few days.
Taking a small spaceship, Li Yu left the main ship of the Black Eye Fleet and headed for the fleet where Otto was.
"Duke Li Yu is here, please take a seat..."
When I opened the door, there were already a few guys in the room, lying casually on the sofa. They were all acquaintances.
They all stood up to greet Li Yu. Several cups of liquids of different colors were placed on the table in the middle.
This is one of the reasons why Otto is so successful here. He is also a highly skilled bartender.
You can mix flavored drinks from different planets together without turning them into dark dishes. Instead, they each have their own characteristics, and you can taste multiple layers of flavor from them.
That's why Li Yu came in person instead of through remote projection. After all, the projection can't taste the flavor.
"Hey, Middleton, you're already drinking, why don't you wait for me?" Li Yu teased one of them.
After spending some time together, he had a pretty good relationship with these people.
Because his level is slightly higher than that of everyone else, when they get along with each other, everyone will try to please him in a subtle way. How can they not feel uncomfortable?
"Haha, it's my fault, it's my fault, I'll drink a glass as a punishment!" Middleton laughed twice and was about to pick up another glass of wine from the table.
Unexpectedly, a breeze blew by, and the wine glass containing purple liquid in his hand disappeared in an instant.
He blinked and looked at Li Yu, only to suddenly realize that the wine glass had been taken away by him at some point.
He was startled in his heart, but smiled and said, "Your Excellency the Duke, you can't bear to let me punish myself?"
Li Yu shook his head and chuckled, "It would be fine if you took something else, but I specifically asked Otto to mix this 'Purple Sunset' last time. How can I let you punish yourself?"
"Then I'm really lucky." Mead said in surprise, but he felt a little scared in his heart. It was a good thing that he didn't drink the glass of wine when he drank it secretly just now.
He glanced at Alto, and the boy really looked like he was enjoying a good show, which made him grit his teeth in anger.
"Alto, hurry up, we don't have enough wine to drink." someone shouted.
Otto scolded, "Are you a Yilin pig? My wine should be tasted slowly. If you drink it like water, I won't let you finish it no matter how many glasses you drink."
"Alas, how can I concentrate on my work in this decadent atmosphere?" Someone lamented, holding the green liquid in his hand, sipping it in small sips, revealing an intoxicated expression from time to time.
Another person sneered, "Butters, you lazy bastard, you want to lie in the sleeping cabin all day, and you still have the nerve to talk about work?"
"Don't accuse me, I'm a good person." Butters shook his head slowly.
"Good guy? If you are a good guy, why don't you sneak attack Commander Horus?" Midel came over.
"Shit, you're secretly plotting against Commander Horus, I'm going to record it," Butters scolded with a start.
"Play is fun, make noise is noise, but don't record the officers' gathering." Otto shook his head.
In fact, according to wartime military regulations, they were not allowed to drink alcohol.
However, this rule is mainly aimed at ordinary soldiers. For them, as advanced life forms, even drinking 100 cups will not affect their conscious judgment.
Butters was just joking. He glared at Middel and continued, "I've always been curious about what's going on with Commander Horus?"
"Who knows? We have done information state checks at least ten times, but we can't find any reason."
"Maybe the universe is really targeting me."
A few people were discussing casually, and the various strange things surrounding Horus recently naturally became the focus of discussion.
"Don't talk nonsense. There must be something wrong. When the God of Justice saw Commander Horus, he acted as if he had seen the murderer of his father. If it weren't for those gods holding him back, he would have punched Horus right away."
"Haha, I heard that Commander Horus has become a justice detector among the soldiers below. They say that anyone who looks at Commander Horus and doesn't have the urge to take action is definitely not a good person."
“Is this outrageous?”
"Do you want to take action when you see Commander Horus?"
"Of course I do, don't you?"
“I want to, too!”
“…”
Li Yu listened to the conversation of the crowd, and the corners of his mouth twitched. This was too much.
These people are not fools. With enough comparisons, it is not difficult to see that only those with justice in their hearts would have the urge to attack Horus.
If Horus heard their conversation, he would be furious.
"Duke Li Yu, do you have the urge to attack Lord Horus?"
Suddenly someone asked Li Yu.
Li Yu was silent for a moment, then said, "I wish I could kill him."
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.
"Haha, it looks like the fire of justice in Duke Li Yu's heart is very strong."
"Yes, I'm afraid he's almost as good as the God of Justice."
“…”
Everyone was chatting and the air was full of joy. Li Yu also enjoyed this atmosphere.
Everyone is an experienced person, and they flatter others silently, which makes people feel comfortable.
But just as this feeling arose in his heart, it was broken by a sudden alarm.
"Warning, warning, abnormal fluctuations have been detected in the D-area defense array!"
A shrill alarm suddenly sounded, and the faces of the people who were drinking changed.
They stood up instantly, put on their armor quickly, the conference room was opened, and everyone had access instantly.
The next moment, everyone's projection appeared directly in the command room of the interstellar fortress. Horus was standing in front of a huge holographic screen.
"The detection device in Area D has been blocked. The location of the troll army is very close. Notify the Glorious Council and prepare for battle!"
The entire expedition array instantly entered the highest state of alert, and a large number of officers in each warship walked around to handle the various tasks assigned to them.
On the huge new screen, a scarlet line was breaking through the bright blue defense array.
"There are more than 300,000 enemy ships, which is already the majority of the troll army's strength. What do they want to do?"
"What's going on with the Four-Armed Titan Legion? Who's responsible for monitoring them?!"
"The Four-Armed Titan Fleet is not moving!" someone reported immediately.
"Idiot!" Horus cursed, "The Troll Legion has already attacked, how can the Four-Armed Titan Legion just sit there and watch? Send a probe ship to approach!"
"yes!"
"Where are the people in the parliament? Why haven't they come online yet?" Horus asked again.
This question was quickly answered: "They are developing a strategic plan and will take action if necessary."
"Something's wrong..." Horus frowned deeply. The parliament's reaction this time was completely different from before.
How to carry out strategic deployment without sharing intelligence?
"Middel, pay close attention to the movements of the parliament. This is your only mission in this battle!" Horus ordered.
"Yes!" Middleton agreed without hesitation.
Any abnormal behavior on the battlefield may become the foreshadowing of final failure.
Horus has never let down his guard against the parliament, and Middel is the one who specifically keeps an eye on the parliament.
"It is recommended to close the outer defense line and surround and kill the troll army. They are alone and deep in the territory. This is a rare opportunity." Someone suggested.
Horus refused: "No, that troll won't be so stupid. If we close the outer defense line, there is a high possibility that the enemy will attack from other directions, and we will be surrounded and killed."
This was indeed most likely an enemy combat strategy. Everyone stared at the combat star map and made various suggestions.
Under the command of these brains, the entire expeditionary force began to make continuous fine-tuning.
Its final command policy was to retreat as a whole in defense, rather than tearing down a single line of defense to encircle and kill the fleet that was attempting to break in.
Before the opponent's purpose is clear, such a battle plan is the most conservative.
Even if the enemy attacks on multiple fronts, you can still defend with ease.
This kind of defensive strategy has basically nothing to do with Li Yu. He knows nothing about interstellar warfare and is better at rushing in.
However, Horus's vigilance against the parliament was not unreasonable. He was also free here, so he simply went offline.
Staring at Middleton, he is now in the virtual projection environment created by the armor, and his perception of changes in the external environment is very low.
So Li Yu walked forward, stretched out his hand, and a powerful force surged out, enveloping Middleton. Then, his perspective was infinitely stretched.
The desolate interstellar space, surrounded by the wreckage of warships, is a scene that Li Yu is already accustomed to.
It is because such scenes are too common in interstellar wars that he is unable to glean much useful information from the future.
However, this time, perhaps because Horus issued a death order, asking Midel to closely monitor the parliament, Li Yu finally saw some useful information.
Not far away, the hideous blood-red tentacles were like the spear of an evil god that pierced through the stars, piercing through dozens of warships in succession.
And it continued to move forward with unabated force, directly piercing through the protective shield of a battleship, tearing it apart fiercely. The violent explosion was blinding.
It's Rohan!
Li Yu frowned. He was very familiar with this bloody tentacle because he had fought with the owner of this tentacle before.
He also recognized the main ship, which was the main ship of the fleet controlled by Middleton.
Now it has been crushed by Rohan.
The parliament took action against Guixing?
His mind sank slightly, and then his gaze rushed up.
He was now looking at Middle's perspective, which meant that it was Middle who was rushing forward!
As the field of vision expands rapidly, the consumption of the Force is also increasing exponentially.
His peripheral vision was attracted by a dazzling purple light . That light was very familiar, it seemed to be the [Power Gem]!
He used the [Infinity Gauntlet]! ?
And at the last moment when the Force was exhausted, he seemed to see a huge bronze shield descending from the void.
In the center, there is a huge bone horse standing tall, with gray-black flames burning all over its body.
It's the mark of Nightmare Knight!
Li Yu, who fell from the future perspective, rubbed his brows. He saw a lot of information this time.
Perhaps because Middleton was the person responsible for monitoring the parliament, he was directly affected by what was about to happen.
Not only did the Parliament take action against Guixing, but it also seemed to have used the [Infinity Gauntlet].
The purple light he caught in his peripheral vision clearly came from the [Power Gem]. It was his own power, that could be confirmed.
But the opponent seemed to be well prepared. The huge bronze shield was definitely used for defense, and there was the Nightmare Knight's logo on it, which seemed to be his weapon.
Why did the parliament take action against Guixing?
And why should I go against Parliament?
Li Yu thought about this problem. According to his character, when things are impossible to do, he will definitely think about evacuating.
Even if someone tried to stop them, they would most likely be from the Star Empire, but the shield that defended against the [Infinity Gauntlet] came from the Nightmare Knight.
This means that it was the gods of the parliament who were stopping him, not the Star Empire.
Suddenly, his pupils contracted, and he suddenly realized that the parliament was not targeting Guixing, but him! !
