Chapter 432: The Honest Queen
However, this proposal made several people present feel uneasy.
The rumors spread by Titus
More and more people are wondering what role Li Yu plays in Guixing?
That interstellar fortress was not Guixing’s property, and Li Yu had a considerable estrangement from them.
All they had to pay was a Black Eye Fleet.
And behind Li Yu is that mysterious camp at another dimension.
Given how much they value Li Yu, if an accident really happened, they would never stand idly by.
And Guixing can cause trouble to the Xingyao Empire without paying almost anything.
Many big guys present were tempted. It was not that they were too ruthless. If Li Yu was a native Guixing person, they would never use this method.
It’s because there are other forces behind Li Yu, and they are not on the same page as Gui Xing.
Li Yu's eyes met Titus's, and invisible sparks collided in the void.
Titus obviously knew the core demands of this group of old returnees, which was to obtain the greatest benefits at the lowest cost.
"His Highness Titus's suggestion is a good choice."
A middle-aged man agreed. He looked dignified. Li Yu felt that he looked familiar. He seemed to be a prince as well, but he rarely spoke in large meetings.
Unexpectedly, he would be the first one to jump out and agree with Titus.
"I can accept this order, but Horus must stay." Li Yu put forward his request.
"No way!" Someone immediately retorted: "Horus is an important asset of Guixing, and he is seriously injured now. He needs to come back to recuperate as soon as possible."
Ethel glanced at the man calmly but did not express any opinion.
Vimala's good mood did not last long, and now she is a little unhappy. Both Li Yu and Horus are the backbone of her forces.
She didn't want to lose any of them, but Li Yu's identity problem, coupled with Titus's instigation, led to a growing gap between him and Guixing. Many senior executives were not optimistic about him, and she had no choice.
Li Yu lowered his head, not knowing what he was operating. Since it was a projection, he could also block part of the mapping.
Then, Ethel and Connor's expressions changed slightly, and they received a message on their smart terminals at the same time.
They are the transfer letters of Max and Edwin respectively, according to the order.
They have been transferred from Horus' personal guard to the Black Eye Fleet and serve as members of Li Yu's guard.
This means that if the Black Eye Fleet stays, Max and Edwin will also stay in No Man's Land.
This is a wartime appointment letter. The Guixing Expeditionary Force is a self-contained system and does not require a full report of every detail.
Therefore, the two of them don’t know yet that their child has fallen into Li Yu’s hands.
This made their faces darken. Did Li Yu anticipate that this day would come? He deliberately kept the evidence in his hand. He has a really fucking evil heart.
And that bastard Horus, don't you understand why you gave the child to him?
He actually transferred the person to Li Yu. Aren’t you afraid of accidents?
"I suggest that we return together." Prince Connor said immediately:
"Duke Li Yu has just made a great contribution. There is no need to take risks."
"I can't just sit there and watch the Star Empire get Gensokyo!" Li Yu said in a deep voice.
It is clear that they will never return to the central galaxy.
Prince Connor's mouth twitched slightly, and Aysel spoke from another angle:
"I think Horus can stay. The Black Eyes Fleet is not large in size, so it is convenient for them to act. They may become a surprise force at a critical moment."
"Then let Horus stay as well." Prince Connor immediately changed his tone, but felt that his words were a bit deliberate, so he added: "Horus is a man of great responsibility, and he can prevent Duke Li Yu from making rash decisions."
Vimala and everyone present were keenly aware that something must have happened to make these two big men change their statements.
Vimala didn't want to take any risks. Li Yu and Horus weren't the only ones returning to the star, so other people could be sent to deal with the affairs of Gensokyo.
But Li Yu didn't know whether it was because of the order from the alien camp behind him or for other reasons, and he was unwilling to come back.
This caused her a headache now.
"I second that..." Titus began. This time, the Return to Star Expeditionary Force almost managed to escape perfectly from the gap, which would bring great prestige to Commander-in-Chief Horus.
This was something he didn't want to see. It would be better to go with the flow and leave Horus in no man's land, waiting for changes.
Well, after Titus spoke up, the opinions of many senior executives have shifted.
If Li Yu was unwilling, Vimala could still argue with him, but now it was Li Yu who took the initiative to ask for it.
As a result, she was unable to change it, and because of his injury, Horus did not attend the meeting and could not express his opinion.
The high-ranking officials were whispering among themselves. Many of them did not want to see Horus stay in No Man's Land, but now many important figures who could make the decision had already made it clear.
So what choice to make still needs careful consideration.
"Let's wait for Commander Horus's opinion before making a decision." Vimala decided to delay it and stopped everyone from speaking:
"As the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force, Horus cannot be assigned by us at will without even expressing his opinion."
Everyone could only shut up in disappointment. Then, Vimala dissolved the meeting, leaving Li Yu alone.
"Why don't you want to return to the central galaxy?" Vimala asked with a frown.
"Because I don't want to sit back and watch..." Before he could finish his words, Vimala interrupted him: "Don't fool me with this sentence."
Li Yu was stunned and simply kept silent. He didn't know what was going on with Tigor, nor did he know whether Vimala was trusted by Tigor.
So it’s not a good idea to try anything.
She stared at the silent Li Yu, not knowing what she was thinking about. She did not dwell on this topic for too long. Her slender white fingers tapped on the metal table, making a regular thudding sound.
Just when Li Yu didn't know what the queen was doing, she slowly said, "I need to talk to the person behind you..."
Having said this, she paused, and then continued: "I am talking about your leader. With my status, I should have this qualification."
"Of course you have the qualifications..." Li Yu first flattered, and then said: "It's just that I can make the decision on some matters myself."
"What I'm talking about involves a lot..." Vimala said in a deep tone.
"Then may I ask, do you represent Guixing or just Vimala?" Li Yu narrowed his eyes.
Vimala remained silent at this sentence, and her eyes gradually became a little unfocused, as if she had thought of something.
But after a moment, her eyes became firm again, and she said in a deep voice:
"Myself."
Hearing this answer , Li Yu seemed to understand something and slowly uttered two words: "Wave?"
In an instant, Vimala's pupils contracted and arcs of blue and purple electricity burst out.
Then the scene in front of Li Yu turned pitch black, and it was not until a moment later that it slowly recovered. The surroundings seemed a little messy, and many places were bent and broken.
It was obvious that the signal was short-circuited due to the outburst of Vimala's power, and it could also be seen that Vimala was surprised.
She frowned and looked at Li Yu who had reappeared: "You also know about this?"
"We have learned a little bit..." Li Yu asked cautiously: "But we are not sure whether this is a bait or the truth..."
"It seems you know much more than I thought..." Vimala said halfway, and suddenly looked at Li Yu suspiciously:
"Is this the reason why you don't want to return to the Central System?"
Li Yu smiled awkwardly and did not answer.
"If that's the case, then it makes sense." Some of Vimala's doubts were explained, and she looked at Li Yu helplessly.
"If the Central Galaxy is indeed dangerous by then, I haven't thought about it in that regard."
"Haha..." Li Yu laughed dryly twice.
Vimala calmed down and then said, "Since you also understand, there is no need to hide it."
"This thing is both bait and not bait."
"What do you mean?" Li Yu was really confused.
"The death wave is real, otherwise there wouldn't be so many small attempts during this period." Vimala explained step by step: "It is also true that his body has problems."
“It is true that I am about to pass away…”
"The only thing that's false is the time of the outbreak."
"Outbreak time?" Li Yu seemed to be thinking about something, as if he had guessed what was going on.
"Tigor knows that because of him, Guixing will face unprecedented danger, but it is also a rare opportunity." Vimala said in an inexplicable tone:
“Normally, no one would think twice about coming to the Central System, where Guixing’s most powerful forces and impenetrable defenses are gathered.”
“Outsiders are at a natural disadvantage here.”
"But if there is an incident that causes the power of the central galaxy to decrease significantly, all the monsters will not miss this rare opportunity..." Li Yu continued: "They will rush here to try to get a piece of the pie."
"And if the person who was deemed dead at that time suddenly appeared, it would probably cause a devastating blow to all enemies in the prosperous central galaxy."
"If successful, it will establish Guixing's strong position for thousands or even tens of thousands of years in the future."
Vimala nodded. “Yes, that’s right.”
Li Yu's doubts were finally answered. This was indeed a bait, and Tigor was fishing.
And the fish we caught were super big, not just one.
He's really not afraid of leaking...
This matter is extremely risky because Tigor cannot be sure how many enemies will come to the central galaxy.
It's easy to mess up.
Moreover, he set his eyes on the queen in front of him. What did the queen want to do?
"You told me so frankly, aren't you afraid that we will leak this news?"
Vimala shook her head slightly. "Who would you leak it to? The Empire or the Parliament? You wouldn't..."
Li Yu couldn't help but laugh. They were old enemies, so he really wouldn't do that.
"So what do you need?"
"It is true that he is called bait because Tigor will indeed die..." Vimala told Li Yu:
"In order to prevent the unexpected situation from happening again, he will definitely die quickly after the plan succeeds."
Lure them over first, then kill them all, and die after making sure that the central galaxy is completely safe.
Tigor can be said to be an absolutely qualified monarch.
Vimala's eyes were fierce: "He should have arranged everything, and I am not satisfied with the result."
This is to pull them together to purge the emperor's side. Li Yu's eyes changed slightly.
It’s not that he was unwilling, the key point was that there was no alien camp behind him and he was alone.
Just as he was about to say something, his eyes changed slightly, and he suddenly thought of something, and the words he was about to say also changed:
"I understand what you mean. I will convey this matter and give you a satisfactory answer."
Vimala nodded and did not say more on the topic, maintaining her composure.
Then they talked about the related matters of this battle . After hanging up the phone, Li Yu's face flickered. He didn't expect Vimala to confront him so soon.
Is it because he saw through this incident that the alien camp really valued him, so he revealed his true colors?
His expression flickered, and he gradually formed an idea in his mind. He definitely did not want to see Titus become the controller of Guixing.
However, under normal circumstances, he would definitely not be able to influence a battle of that level unless he used special means.
“Wait a few days, then pretend to fool Vimala…” Li Yu pondered and then opened the system.
After so many days, No. 1 can finally be put on the air again.

【The Matrix World】
【Star Legend World】
【Guardians of the Galaxy World】
Li Yu opened the [World List], and the three world names flashing with special colors appeared in front of Li Yu.
The first two worlds were directly ignored by him and placed in the third world.
[The World of Guardians of the Galaxy] is obviously a parallel universe world derived from [Marvel].
If this is this world, Li Yu has a good idea.
[Mission Mode]——[Obtain the genetic sample of Star-Lord's father]
He has been coveting the genes of the gods for a long time.
Logically speaking, as Ego's descendant, Star-Lord should have the same effect if he inherited his genes.
However, Star-Lord was a complete waste before he set foot on the planet Ego. Perhaps other conditions are needed for genetic awakening.
So in order to avoid accidents, Li Yu decided to get Ego's genetic sample.
This world satisfies you, right? Don’t cause me any trouble. No one will care if you have a harem. Don’t forget your mission!
Li Yu "violently warned" clone No. 1, and then began to launch.
