Chapter 472: Crisis lurks on every side, Reinhardt makes a comeback
"Is this guy... sick?" Li Yu had a strange expression on his face. He expected him to surrender just by saying something on the radio channel. Was he so stupid in the eyes of these people?
"It's just a simple provocation. The rule-level weapons on you make them afraid, and they hope to get rid of you first." Horus said.
Do they have ways to deal with rule-level means?
Li Yu keenly captured the hidden meaning in Horus' words.
Yes... After all, it is the Star Empire, so it must have Titan artifacts in stock.
Along with this thought, another doubt came into his mind.
The Star Empire seems to be far ahead of the entire galaxy.
Not to mention the numerous colonial legions, even the seven noble legions seemed able to sweep across most civilizations.
Li Yu didn’t know much about it before, but as he got to know it more deeply, he felt that the Star Empire and other civilizations were completely on a different level.
Even though it was Guixing, Li Yu felt that the gap between it and the Xingyao Empire was extremely large.
"Are you afraid of starting a war and becoming an enemy of the entire galaxy, or are you afraid of the parliament?"
A flash of doubt flashed through Li Yu's mind, and he naturally had no reaction to this warning.
The internal channels of the resistance organization's joint fleet were already in an uproar.
"There is indeed an ambush!"
"The Star Empire has seen through our purpose!"
“It’s over!”
“…”
Many leaders of the lower-level resistance organizations who were not at a high enough level were somewhat panicked. They didn't even know that this was the direct army of the Star Empire.
However, his flashy appearance alone was enough to scare them.
The three most powerful resistance organizations were discussing in secret.
"It's the Golden Lion Legion. I thought it would be some other top colonial legion. This is trouble."
"Don't worry, we have a plan for this."
"But this is the Golden Lion Army. Will the Reformers still take action?"
“I definitely will!”
…
"It's... like this again..." Raymond looked at the Golden Lion Legion in the distance, a bitter smile appearing on his face.
They do all the dirty work, and when it's time to reap the credit, their own troops will come.
Sweeping the resistance organization's combined fleet and capturing Gensokyo was no small achievement.
The Troll Legion will only appear in the loss report.
Although this was the original plan, the heavy losses suffered by the troll army were beyond Raymond's expectations.
This made his mentality unbalanced, and some deeply hidden little thoughts began to take root.
…
"The Abyss has entered the Legion's blockade!"
Cordelli's pupils suddenly contracted, and he said in a deep voice: "They are disguised as members of other organizations, but I can smell the dimensional stench from a long distance."
What Codry said was of course just a metaphor. The Abyss Research Institute specializes in studying the dimensional world, and their path of evolution is very complicated.
After all, every dimensional world with living things has the potential to develop a complete evolutionary path.
The Ark of Savior, which has profound attainments in life science and technology, can easily discover their unusual evolutionary system.
"Let's go. If we let them gain the upper hand, it will be hard to say who will own Gensokyo," said Cordrey.
The three of them looked at each other, and it was obvious that they had the same idea.
"Let's go in and take a look..."
Before leaving, Li Yu gave orders to the Black Eye Fleet to stay away from the direct war zone as much as possible to avoid accidental injuries.
With the protection of the Twelve Golden Immortals and Siegel hiding in the dark, there should be no problem as long as they are not dragged into the frontal battlefield.
Elsewhere, Reinhardt, who had apparently evacuated long ago, silently watched Li Yu and the other two, and then turned his gaze to the Black Eye Fleet.
At the same time, the Golden Lion Legion has begun the strangulation operation.
A large number of warships opened the catapult channels on both sides and released catapult ships, which were bullet-shaped spacecraft with no attack systems, only thrusters and defense systems.
These catapult capsules quickly rushed into the array of the Combined Fleet and opened quickly before the enemy could react.
Rushing out from it was a ship-destroying team wearing armor. These soldiers were equipped with anti-ship weapons, high-frequency shock mechanical knives, dark energy blasting guns, etc. They ignored their own damage and launched a fierce attack on the enemy ship's shield.
They are highly mobile and can survive under fire for several minutes to deliver firepower.
After entering the load state, the attack power of each ship destroyer is greatly enhanced, continuously weakening the enemy's shield, while the Golden Lion Legion fires all its cannons at once.
With the enemy ship's shield disrupted, the Golden Lion Legion's artillery attack had an unexpected effect.
Not long after the two sides came into contact, the anti-organization joint fleet suffered losses far beyond imagination.
…
"Due to a loophole in the defense, many advanced life forms have rushed in and are rapidly approaching the blockade of Gensokyo."
Ted cursed under his breath, but issued various orders in an orderly manner to deal with the emergency measures at hand.
"Hmm, it's them!?"
Ted found several familiar figures on the screen, they were Li Yu, Horus, and a stranger.
"I'll let you go for now. Anyway, with the Golden Lions here, you won't be able to succeed."
Ted thought for a moment and decided to give up blocking. The situation on the entire battlefield was now that the Four-Armed Titan Legion and the remaining Troll Legion were surrounded in the middle.
On the periphery is the resistance organization, and the joint fleet is constantly approaching and launching attacks at the same time.
Further out, the Golden Lion Legion was ambushing at the end and was also attacking the resistance organization's joint fleet.
Under such circumstances, the Combined Fleet caught in the middle could not hold out for long.
It is obviously not a wise choice to provoke Horus now.
It would be better to wait until the Combined Fleet is destroyed before slowly dealing with these people.
…
“Although the appearance of the Golden Lion Legion is somewhat unexpected, if we devour them, it will be enough to make the Star Empire unable to recover for several years.” Hasband looked at the entire interstellar battlefield with a flat tone.
The Four-Armed Titan Legion, the Troll Legion, and the Golden Lion Legion, if these three top legions were all destroyed here, even the Star Empire would not be able to withstand it.
"It's difficult, but you can give it a try." Another voice sounded.
…
"Kodri, what on earth do you want to do!?" Horus couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Your eyes have passed over me at least a hundred times in the past few days."
With Horus's perception ability, even if Kodri's movements were covert, he could still feel them.
Li Yu glanced at Cordelli with a strange expression. This guy, could he have any weird habits?
"Uh..." After being caught twice in a row, Codry was a little embarrassed and said reluctantly: "I'm just worried about what will happen to His Excellency Horus's health?"
"My body? It's fine!" Horus said unhappily.
Cordrey chuckled twice, his eyes suspicious. Why haven't the side effects appeared yet?
Is there no side effect?
How is this possible? Even with the Ark system, after reshaping the body, it will take some time for the life force to return to its peak.
As they approached the blockade zone, everyone felt a sense of oppression , which was caused by the collision between the dimensional world and the main universe world.
You can vaguely see a huge shadow deep in the starry sky, which is pulled by countless chains and is difficult to leave.
Under this shadow, even a conventional interstellar fortress is just a tiny bit.
In the distance, several figures were fiddling with something, and as the mechanical structure operated, it rapidly expanded into a huge mechanical ring.
The mechanical ring trembled slightly, and special runes appeared on the metal ring, flickering with light.
Then, a tiny bit of light appeared in the center of the circle, and it kept expanding, and soon became an unstable channel.
Kodry looked at the ring and exclaimed, "The Dimension Ring is the technology of the Abyss Research Institute. It has studied the Divine Kingdom technology of the Council. It can penetrate the surface barrier of the dimensional world and enter it."
"No matter what kind of dimensional world it is, if you want to completely control it, you basically have to enter it first. It is impossible to control it from the outside."
"Your Excellency has good eyesight..." An invisible spiritual wave swept past, and the faces of the three people changed slightly. Not far from them, a shadowy long sword attacked them.
There was a cold light flashing in Kodri's eyes, and in an instant, the shadow sword collapsed in the void.
"You guys have been following us secretly for so long, you should have discovered where we are from." A guy as black as ink walked out of the shadows.
"Shadow Fiend..." Kodry recognized the other party at a glance.
Horus shared the information with Li Yu. Shadow Demon is a powerful man in the Abyss Research Institute. He controls a certain dimensional world, is good at hiding, and is extremely powerful.
"Li Yu, Horus, this person... seems a little unfamiliar." The other party also called out the names of the two, but did not recognize Codelli who concealed his identity.
Li Yu's eyes moved slightly. This old guy Cordelli was very sinister. He had cheated him before and was completely not on the same page with the two of them.
If a fight breaks out later, it certainly won't help him.
Thinking of this, he immediately shouted: "Open your dog eyes and take a good look, this is the deputy director of the field operations of the Ark of Salvation!"
"It turns out to be the surge of telekinesis - Kodri." The Shadow Demon then called out Kodri's identity.
Cordrey's eyes swept over Li Yu, slightly gloomy.
"You also want to seize Gensokyo?" The Shadow Demon looked at the three people.
None of the three answered, but the answer was self-evident.
The Shadow Demon laughed out loud and said, "Haha, I didn't expect that today I could not only obtain Gensokyo, but also get an extra Rule-level weapon. This is a great harvest."
The implication of his words was that he regarded the three people as easy prey.
Horus's face darkened, and he suddenly raised his hand, cutting into the void beside Li Yu, pulling out a shadow blade and crushing it directly.
Li Yu's expression changed slightly. He had not noticed the opponent's sneak attack just now. If he was hit this time, his passive skill would probably be triggered.
In the distance, those figures have entered the dimensional ring, and the dimensional ring has begun to close.
Kodry's face changed slightly. The dimensional technology is advanced by the Abyss Research Institute. If the dimensional ring is closed, it will be difficult to find a way to enter it.
“Stop them!”
Kodry shouted, and invisible mental power surged, sweeping across the void in front of him. A large amount of ink-black liquid flowed out, and eerie black tentacles extended from it. Each one was several thousand meters long, like the evil gods in the myths of indigenous civilizations.
Horus' eyes narrowed slightly, he was covered in black armor, holding a knight's sword, slashing and sweeping, like a crescent moon descending, breaking a large number of black tentacles.
The two of them rushed forward at the same time, as if they wanted to besiege the Shadow Demon.
But just when the three were about to come into contact, Cordri's body suddenly turned into an illusion, and what remained in place was actually just a telekinetic clone.
The telekinetic clone exploded, and the terrifying power swept across the star field, forcing Shadow Demon and Horus to pause for a short time.
And the real Kodri has appeared near the dimensional ring.
Obviously, from the first moment they came into contact with the Shadow Fiend, this guy had come up with a countermeasure and let Horus fight against the Shadow Fiend.
And he himself quietly escaped into the fantasy land.
"I'm sorry. I will personally apologize to both of you after this is over." Cordelli's words rang in the ears of Li Yu and the others, with a deep-seated sense of complacency in his tone.
Horus snorted coldly, and the Shadow Demon tried to turn around to stop him, but he looked at Horus with fear.
If he goes back, Horus will surely catch up with him, and then there will be one more competitor for no reason.
In the moment of hesitation, Kodli had already rushed into the dimensional ring. The telekinesis seeds left outside exploded, and the dimensional ring was affected. Arcs flashed, runes dimmed, and it was completely destroyed.
"It looks like you've been fooled." Shadow Demon looked at Li Yu and the other man and sneered, "I thought he was your ally."
Li Yu had anticipated Cordri's sinister intentions and simply greeted his relatives and friends.
At this moment, he heard a noisy electric current sound in his ears, mixed with Siegel's voice:
"Something happened to your fleet. The guys you forced back before have returned with their men. They are very powerful and have captured the Black Eye Fleet."
Li Yu's expression changed slightly. It was Reinhardt!
He turned back again!
"I'm not sure I can deal with the leader, so I haven't taken action for the time being... huh?" Siegel's voice paused.
"The leader left from here. Judging from the direction, it seems to be the same direction you left."
"Are you sure you can eliminate the enemy without hurting other people?" Li Yu asked coldly.
Siegel was silent for a moment, as if he was estimating, and then he said, "Yes."
Hearing this answer, Li Yu looked relieved. Fortunately, he had kept Siegel to prevent any accidents.
Reinhardt, Li Yu's eyes flickered, is he coming here too?
This guy hasn't given up on fighting for Gensokyo.
Maybe... I am also among the targets.
