Chapter 436: Dark Star Arrives, Meeting Familiar People
No Man's Land, Troll Army
Raymond is receiving a report from his men.
"Captain, Team K has returned. They brought back the mission target from the coordinate location."
"Well..." Raymond nodded: "Send the things to the laboratory and tell them to continue their research."
"yes!"
The subordinate turned around and hurried away to convey the order.
Shortly after his men left, the virtual projection device hidden in the corner rolled, accompanied by a bright blue light.
Ted stepped out and said, "I heard that Team K has completed their mission and has returned. Commander Raymond is really full of talented people."
His tone sounded casual, but there was a hint of jealousy and ridicule hidden in it.
Raymond glanced at him and said, "Captain Ted, did you come here just to praise my subordinates? Then I thank you on their behalf."
Ted was choked and lost the intention to argue with Raymond. He shook his head and said, "Five of the six coordinates have been found, and the last one is left."
"But according to those guys from the research institute, there can't be only six of these energy beads lost."
"Even if we gather together, it will be difficult to make a difference."
Raymond naturally knew the news, and he had already prepared for it: "The Empire's intelligence department has contacted me."
"The White Rebellion has one coordinate, the Black Network has two, and Meditation has one. You can go and talk to them later."
Ted looked unhappy, "Why didn't the Empire's intelligence department hand over to me?"
"We are all in charge of this operation, and it only needs to be handed over to one of us," Raymond explained.
"How can that be possible? You are not the commander-in-chief, so you must be in sync with me. Who is the boss of the intelligence department? How come you don't know the rules?" Ted said unhappily.
Raymond shook his head, too lazy to respond. You even forgot the person's name, and you still expect him to contact you.
Seeing that Raymond ignored him, Ted was angry but had no place to vent. But then he seemed to have thought of something, grinned and said, "The main reason I came to you this time is because of something very strange."
"The Empire has specially sent someone to us, saying that it is to help us deal with Li Yu."
"Huh?" This news really attracted Raymond's attention.
"Haha, you don't know." Ted laughed twice, looking at Raymond's puzzled expression, and was quite complacent: "The Empire contacted me alone this time, and didn't tell you."
Raymond was speechless. For such a small matter, it would be enough to just notify a commander.
However, it was not the first day that he knew Ted, so he did not pay attention to what he said, but said: "Li Yu should have evacuated with Guixing, why did you send someone here?"
"That's what I told them..." Ted shrugged. "But I don't know what those people in the combat command were thinking. Why did they have to send this person over here?"
"It is said that the No Man's Land is the last place where Li Yu appeared. We can't send him to the central star system of Guixing."
Raymond thought for a moment and asked, "Which faction does the person sent here belong to?"
"I don't know, it's very mysterious and I'm too lazy to check." Ted shook his head.
“Have we arrived yet?”
Ted grinned and said, "That's why I came to see you because we have arrived. Are you interested in going to take a look?"
"The Empire even used multiple allies' stargate transit stations to get him here so quickly. It seems quite impressive."
Raymond hesitated for a moment, but still nodded and said, "Now that you mentioned it, I am also somewhat interested. Let's go and take a look together."
"I knew that you seemed to be particularly concerned about the information related to Li Yu." Ted said meaningfully.
"Aren't you concerned about the enemies of the empire?" Raymond asked back.
"Take it to heart, take it to heart." Ted laughed and turned around, and the projection disappeared here.
Raymond frowned, not knowing what he was thinking about.
…
In the Starry Sky
"The queen wants to talk to the person behind you. Let's make an appointment." Horus didn't know how the Death Star disappeared, so he didn't think about it anymore.
It seemed that Vimala was getting a little anxious waiting, as only four or five days had passed since their last conversation.
Li Yu pondered secretly and nodded: "No problem, I will start preparing for this matter when I return."
Isn't it just fooling people? He has already mastered it.
…
In the huge fleet of the Four-Armed Titan Legion, a small spaceship is sailing slowly along a specific trajectory, gradually connecting to a transport ship, and then after transfer, it finally arrives at a huge interstellar fortress.
DarkStar was locked in a closed device, his limbs were cut off, leaving only his head.
The minotaur who transported him remained silent, firmly performing his duty.
"Wait, the legion commander wants to see you." The armored soldier leading the team stopped the Minotaur, his armor was red.
All four arms are tightly wrapped in metal armor.
The Minotaur nodded silently, and the silver-white mechanical tank in his hand attracted the attention of many soldiers.
"Please give this thing to us for safekeeping," said the captain in a deep voice.
"No..." The Minotaur held the mechanical tank in his hand.
His uncooperative attitude made many soldiers alert and they held the energy guns in their hands tightly.
"I'm just an escort, he is the target of transportation." The Minotaur explained.
Many soldiers looked at the silver-white mechanical tank in astonishment.
The Minotaur didn't say much and just pressed a few buttons. The metal surface of the mechanical tank immediately turned into transparent glass, allowing one to clearly see a head and half of a body sealed inside.
Anxing blinked and looked at the soldiers outside, not knowing what to feel.
The many soldiers were naturally not frightened, they just felt a little speechless.
Didn’t the higher-ups say they’d sent support?
They thought it was the minotaur in front of them, but they didn't expect it to be just a head.
"Then, follow me..." The captain said with a complicated tone.
He took the Minotaur through numerous checkpoints and only brought him into the top-level room after making sure there were no weapons of mass destruction.
As soon as he entered the room, the Minotaur felt a terrible danger.
Before he could even react, a fist as big as a sandbag stopped in front of his head. The terrifying power from it made him tremble all over.
One more point and his head would have exploded.
His throat moved unconsciously. No one could remain calm in the face of life and death.
"Tsk, that's it? An ordinary A2 can actually threaten to deal with Li Yu?" Ted retracted his fist in boredom.
He thought that the person sent was a very powerful life form, but it turned out that it couldn't even react to his casual punch.
Although he did not take Li Yu very seriously, after the last battle, he understood at least one thing: to deal with Li Yu, careful deployment was needed to eliminate any hope of a comeback.
As for this minotaur, just go home and get chopped to death.
Raymond's projection was also somewhat disappointed when watching this scene, and his interest was greatly reduced.
The Minotaur remained silent, raised the mechanical tank in his hand again, and said in a muffled voice: "What's inside is the weapon to deal with Li Yu."
"Oh?" Ted became interested again after hearing that. The Minotaur only felt his arm go numb, and the mechanical tank in his hand disappeared.
Ted stared at the mechanical arm and pulled with both hands, and the sturdy mechanical tank was torn apart directly.
The Dark Star trapped inside fell to the ground with a "plop", mixed with pink sticky substance and scarlet blood.
Dark Star now only had a head and half of his body left. He lay on the metal floor with his head tilted back, looking at the tall Ted, a little confused.
Ted was stunned for a moment, then his face darkened. He resisted the urge to crush it into a pulp and shouted, "What the hell is this? It's disgusting."
Dark Star: “…”
"He is Darkstar." The minotaur explained silently.
"Dark Star?" Raymond's eyes moved slightly, as if he remembered something.
Ted hesitated for a moment and said, "Why do I seem to have heard this name somewhere?"
He looked down again, trying to identify it carefully, but when he saw the pile of things on the ground, he instantly lost all desire and shouted:
"Hurry up and take him to the research room and restore him to human form first. Otherwise, I will just want to crush him into a pulp when I see him."
The Minotaur seemed to want to say something. His mission was to watch over DarkStar and prevent him from escaping.
If he were restored to human form, his strength would inevitably increase, which would bring unpredictable risks.
However, this was someone else's territory, and the legion commander seemed to have a very bad temper, so he did not dare to raise any objections.
I could only quietly follow the person who mentioned Dark Star and leave.
"Fuck, what are those idiots in the Empire thinking? What on earth can they do by sending this stuff over here?" Ted cursed.
Raymond said nothing. He remembered who Anxing was. He was one of Li Yuchu's enemies.
Anxing left the room filled with horror and immediately felt much more comfortable.
The four-armed Titan just now was the strongest life form he had ever come into close contact with.
"I can only stay here for now. At least I can delay the time. As for what's going on afterwards... let's talk about it later..." Anxing thought to himself.
"The commander of the corps asked us to send him to the research institute, but the people in the research institute are no longer members of our corps. They have been occupied by those guys from the research institute."
Several soldiers were talking to each other as they walked.
"I heard that those people are very proud and look down on us. If we just go over there, will they chase us out?"
"Why don't you go back and ask the legion commander?"
"I'm not going..." The four-armed Titan who spoke shuddered, as if he thought of something extremely terrifying.
"This is a research institute, you are not allowed to enter."
In front of the heavy hatch, several non-four-armed Titan guards blocked the soldiers' way. They were wearing white armor and spoke indifferently.
"We are under the order of the legion commander to restore him to human form." One of the soldiers pointed at Dark Star and said.
"We haven't received this order." The other party's attitude was cold.
"This was spoken verbally by the legion commander, and the order may not have been recorded," he explained patiently.
"Then please ask the legion commander to issue a formal order. No one is allowed to enter until the official order is issued."
"You!" The soldier was a little angry: "Don't you forget whose territory this is? Can we still deceive you?"
"Please show me the official order!" The other party's attitude was still cold.
The team was very angry, but there was nothing they could do.
The other party was not a researcher within the Four-Armed Titan Legion, but an expatriate from the Imperial Research Institute.
Responsible for carrying out strict tasks, they dare not offend each other.
Just as the two sides were confronting each other, the heavy hatch behind them suddenly opened, and a slim woman in a research suit walked out.
She lowered her head and scrolled on the holographic screen. When she saw the scene outside the cabin, she was a little surprised and frowned, "What's going on?"
"Researcher Farah, this group of people want to break into the research institute." the guard reported.
"Nonsense, we are just following the order of the legion commander to ask you to help him..."
The team leader was still explaining, but Farah could no longer listen. She looked at the half body held in the hands of everyone, her eyes a little dull.
It's actually Dark Star! ?
She would never forget this face, and she didn't expect to see it again here.
However, now the opponent only has a head left, with half of its intestines still hanging out.
And Anxing was also stunned. He looked at the female researcher. Wasn't this his once beloved Scarlet Commander - Liu Xing?
He still remembered the embarrassing scene in front of Liu Xing when he fell into Li Yu's hands last time.
Unexpectedly, this scene happened again.
The two had different thoughts at this moment, but neither of them revealed the other's identity.
Liu Xing's expression changed slightly, but he didn't show it. He said calmly, "Since it's the order from the legion commander, then carry him in."
"Thank you, Mr. Farah," the team leader said gratefully.
Seeing Anxing being carried in, the minotaur also wanted to follow in, but at the moment when Liuxing and Anxing's eyes met.
Liu Xing understood his idea and immediately stood in front of the minotaur, shaking his head and saying, "Did the legion commander let you in?"
The minotaur hesitated and looked at the nearby squad leader.
The team leader hesitated for a moment, and naturally did not dare to lie, so he shook his head and said, "No."
"Then you can't go in." Liu Xing was calm when facing the minotaur who was much more powerful than her.
"I must follow him." The Minotaur said in a deep voice.
"Hey..." The team leader was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He hurried forward to stop him and whispered:
"Don't cause trouble. Even the legion commander has to treat these people gently. What do you want to do? If you want to die, don't take us with you!"
The Minotaur hesitated and thought of the fist as big as a sandbag.
In the end, he did not continue the confrontation and quietly walked to the corner of the corridor, apparently prepared to wait here.
