Chapter 451: An unexpected surprise
Li Yu still clearly remembers that the reason he knew about this matter was because his former teammates from Hunter asked him for help.
But according to subsequent analysis, the other party should have deliberately lured him into the game.
But after such a long time, the person behind the scenes has not been exposed, so he didn't take it to heart for the time being.
However, as the Gensokyo incident is about to unfold, Li Yu has been thinking about this matter more frequently recently.
The probability that the three organizations of Reformers, Abyss, and Old Ones would lure him in is not high.
Just by looking at the other party's plan, one can tell that the forces mobilized by the Reformers in order to weaken the Star Empire are beyond imagination.
The Abyss and the Old Days are not much behind. In other words, his current status and position are not enough to make these three parties go to great lengths to lure him in.
"It is likely that some force wants to use this incident to achieve its own small goals." Li Yu shook his head, put the matter aside for the time being, and turned on the genetic detection equipment.
The progress of his gene chain development has reached 67%, and he has not given up on the development of the gene chain during this period.
Since the last time Horus was fleeced, the rate of gene chain development has risen another small step. In just one month, it has increased by 7 percentage points.
It will take at most five months to reach 100%, which is already an extremely fast speed.
"It always feels a bit slow..." Li Yu muttered to himself. He knew that this speed was already fast enough.
But think about his current enemies, they are at least A3 level, and some are even A4 level. It is really difficult to deal with them.
However, each of those levels of life forms has gone through a long period of tempering, just take Horus for example.
Nearly a thousand years had passed since he became an A4-level life form, not to mention his age before that.
Li Yu’s current age is less than a fraction of theirs, so many advanced life forms have a strange feeling when facing Li Yu.
Their youngest great-grandson is older than Li Yu, but this guy can almost compete with them.
Li Yu pondered for a moment. Now there are not many ways to quickly improve the progress of gene chain development. For the time being, he can only rely on slow work.
"Commander, there is a starry sky rift ahead. We can no longer move forward. Which direction should we move forward in?"
The sudden report from his subordinates disrupted Li Yu's thinking.
Generally speaking, there is no need to alarm him for such trivial matters. There is a set process. If he encounters a cosmic Jedi or interstellar wonder blocking the way, he can just take a detour.
However, Li Yu had instructed that if they encountered a situation where they had to change direction, they must report to him, and only after his decision could they decide which direction to continue moving forward.
This is because he can peek into the future and choose a safer direction to avoid additional risks.
Arriving at the command room, Hunter was there, looking up at the holographic screen, which showed a huge dark area covering more than several light years.
The overall shape is irregular, like a black area painted on a piece of paper, deep and desolate.
This is a relatively common cosmic Jedi - the starry sky rift. The reason why it is common is that this kind of cosmic Jedi can be created by artificial means.
This is due to the destructive tearing of space, which makes it impossible for itself to repair and will continue to expand over time.
To reach the point where the space cannot repair itself, the energy level of destruction must be at least hundreds of millions.
Such combat power has already stood at the top of the interstellar space, but it is still compared to the extremely harsh birth conditions of cosmic Jedi such as cosmic volcanoes, interstellar glaciers, and dark star rings.
The cracks in the starry sky are relatively simple. For example, the Dark Ring requires the joint collapse of more than a hundred supergiant stars to form a large-scale cosmic Jedi similar to the Dark Ring.
The prerequisites are so harsh that they are difficult to form, not to mention the joint collapse.
"There are records of the formation of this starry sky rift. It was formed by the battle between the 'Mechanical Emperor' and the 'Blade of Disaster' 70,000 years ago." The hunter introduced:
"After that, because no one dealt with it, the cracks continued to widen."
Li Yu nodded, not caring too much about the cause. He called a subordinate and ordered: "Use the main ship as a reference point and set the direction to the right of the starry sky rift."
Many operators began to give orders, and Li Yu began to peek into his future.
Well... the sea will be calm for a long time in the future, nothing special, so this route should be safe.
Although a fairly safe path was calculated at the beginning, Li Yu did not make a decision, but ordered again: "Use the main ship as a reference point and set the direction to the left of the starry sky rift."
There are too many uncertainties in the future, and Li Yu can only eliminate most of them in this way.
I also hope that through this method, I can learn some information that cannot be obtained through normal means.
Well, it's also very quiet. This area is already on the edge of the no-man's land and there is very little life activity.
Afterwards, Li Yu tried other directions and they were also very calm.
Most of the soldiers in the command room, including Hunter, seemed very calm about this.
Because such a scene has occurred some time ago, but it is the first time in the past month.
Just when Li Yu chose to head towards the bottom of the starry sky crack.
The future that he glimpsed finally had a slight change. He saw a battle, and in the battle he saw a familiar face.
The god of flesh and blood - Rohan!
In the future that he had glimpsed, Rohan was holding the Nightmare Shield and protected by the phantom of the Nightmare Knight, fighting against Horus. Although he could only fight tirelessly, his life was not in danger in the short term.
He himself became a supporting role, using the [Infinity Gauntlet] to launch sneak attacks from time to time.
"I actually ran into Rohan. It turns out that the people in the parliament did not evacuate." Li Yu left the future perspective and looked thoughtful.
He and Horus had speculated before that although the Parliament had pretended to evacuate, it should be the same as Guixing, and had not really left the No Man's Land.
The future that we just glimpsed proves this, and the three forces of the parliament seem to have parted ways. Rohan should be acting alone.
In the scene that Li Yu saw, there was no appearance of Sun Senator or neutral gods.
"Rohan is hiding in this place, and he is alone. In this case..." Li Yu's eyes flickered. He had not forgotten his [Symbiotic Reproduction Suit], and seemed to be very interested in Rohan's flesh and blood.
However , in the scene he saw, there was no sign of Kodri, and he didn't seem to be very interested in the siege of Rohan.
If Li Yu and Horus were to rely on their own strength, it would seem a bit difficult to deal with the Nightmare Knight's projection and the Nightmare Shield.
Kodry's target is Gensokyo, which was created by Li Yu through the Overlord to deceive the Ark of Savior.
Otherwise, the Ark of Savior’s desire for Gensokyo is not really that great.
He is still the main target.
It is obviously unlikely for him to besiege Rohan and fight against the Nightmare Knight without any purpose.
"It seems like I have to fool people again..." Li Yu pondered. He now has the initiative, and no one knows that he will meet Rohan. It seems like he can use this as an opportunity to stir up some trouble.
…
"Sir, the Black Eye Fleet has sent a shared message that it has changed direction again." The subordinate reported to Kodry, which made Kodry frown and couldn't help but say:
"In just over ten minutes, he has changed direction four times. Is there something wrong? Is he playing a trick on us?"
It’s okay to encounter cracks in the starry sky, and it’s okay to change direction.
But the key point was that he changed direction one after another, which made Cordelli even wonder if Li Yu was playing a trick on him.
"Wait... why does this look so much like a method to converge certainty and eliminate uncertainty..." Cordrey was suddenly stunned.
As a senior executive of the Ark, he knew that the Overmind used a similar method when calculating the future.
The Ark of Savior transmits enough external data to eliminate more uncertainties and ultimately lock in the maximum possibility within a very small range.
But he immediately shook his head and denied the idea. Peeping into the future was not a simple method.
In other words, the Overlord must be very special to use this method, but even so, the Ark of Salvation will have to pay a huge price.
Even if the alien camp has this means, it is impossible to use it at will in the direction of choice.
Because the uncertainty is still too great, if we were to use the Ark, we would at least have to increase the overall size of the fleet and its high-level combat power.
They even collect news data from the No Man's Land for the past ten days or even longer, and transmit it to the Master before making any calculations.
Like the "astrologer" Li Yu met before, he was the simplest and crudest way of peeping into the future. He could not eliminate uncertainty, and the results he obtained were hard to believe.
The Overlord is more advanced and the results obtained are more credible.
As for Li Yu, he is rather special, being caught between the two.
Just as all kinds of speculations emerged in Cordelli's mind, his subordinates suddenly reported: "Sir, Li Yu is here."
"Him?" Cordelli's expression slightly changed. He calmed down and said calmly, "Let him in."
Soon, the cabin door opened and Li Yu walked in with a smile: "Sir Cordelli, I have been too busy recently and have not had time to entertain you."
"It doesn't matter." Cordrey shook his head, cursing in his heart, what are you busy with? I see you lying on that broken device all day long, what is there to be busy about?
Li Yu exchanged a few pleasantries, then sighed, "Sir Cordelli, I'm afraid our cooperation has come to an end."
Cordri's expression flickered, and the first thought that popped into his mind was, what the hell is this guy going to do next?
According to the character psychological model created by Savior Ark for Li Yu, every action of this guy must have a purpose.
Basically, he will not do something without a reason. Of course, there have been a few behaviors in his growth process that are difficult to analyze.
"What's wrong?" Codry frowned and asked, "He is not interested in Li Yu, but the alien camp behind him."
If he could communicate directly with the alien camp, he would have thrown Li Yu away long ago.
"The camp thinks I'm in danger and should retreat from the no-man's land as soon as possible." Li Yu explained: "The camp has been distracted by something recently and cannot invest high-end forces here."
"If we evacuate, don't we have to give up Gensokyo?" Cordri asked with a twinkle in his eyes.
But what he cared about in his heart was something else. Was the camp in the other dimension distracted by something?
There are definitely not many events that could involve a behemoth like an alien-dimensional camp.
If Cordri were to guess, he could only think of Guixing.
Li Yu had already joined Guixing. Perhaps Guixing had secretly reached some kind of agreement with the alien camp using Li Yu as a bridge.
If this is the case, the decision of the top management seems to need to change.
Li Yu also sighed: "Yes, but the camp attaches great importance to my safety. As for Gensokyo, it doesn't matter if I don't want it."
He didn't know that his previous words had caused Cordery to have more associations.
"This is very simple..." Cordelli began to figure out what was going on. It seemed that Li Yu came to his house wanting him to be his bodyguard.
All the talk about leaving and being unable to cooperate was just an excuse; this guy's intentions were obvious.
However, it is not impossible to be Li Yu's bodyguard. In Cordelli's opinion, as long as the alien camp can see the sincerity of the Ark of Savior, the other party will naturally not ignore it.
The Ark of Savior is also a huge monster in the interstellar space. Even if the alien camp is unfathomable, it is impossible to ignore the Ark of Savior.
Unfortunately, the leader of the alien camp who was unfathomable in his eyes was now standing in front of him and looking at him with a smile.
Cordelli figured this out and said, "Since we have reached a cooperation agreement, I am naturally obliged to protect your safety. If there are any problems, I will help you."
"If that's the case, then it couldn't be better." Li Yu showed a happy expression and said with a smile: "The Ark of Salvation is really a rare and good organization. It seems that I have always misunderstood you."
When Cordelli heard what Li Yu said, his face looked a little strange and he could only nod reluctantly.
Last time in Zijing, we almost beat our brains out.
After seeing Li Yu off, Cordri pondered for a moment, his mind full of thoughts. He opened the smart terminal, edited an encrypted message, and sent it back to the headquarters.
If Guixing gets help from the alien camp, then Ark seems to be able to increase its investment in Guixing.
In this way, Guixing's power will be further enhanced, and perhaps the gains from this investment will be far beyond imagination.
