Chapter 500: Ego's Genetic Sample - [Creation] and [Stellar Devouring]
In an unknown interstellar channel, the Ocean Rose is traveling in a jump state.
"Princess, it's so surprising that His Highness Klein has become the queen." Several female mermen surrounded the mermaid princess, chattering.
Olivia leaned back on the soft silk chair, with a large area of fair skin exposed, only the key parts were covered by a few scales, her tail was soaked in water, and she chuckled twice:
"You've been shocked for several days, haven't you reacted yet?"
“But it’s hard for me to connect that silly Klein with the current queen.” said the headed fishman.
"Don't ever say that again. The Queen of Guixing is not someone you can discuss," Olivia warned.
"It's a pity that there was a riot in that small galaxy before and the route was blocked, otherwise we would have been able to make it to the coronation ceremony." Another fishman sighed.
"Yes, it is said that many interstellar celebrities have gone there."
"Also, Li Yu, who had a scandal with our princess before, is now known as the 'Star Destroyer', 'God Killer' and many other nicknames..."
Olivia laughed twice and did not join the discussion.
"By the way, Princess, why did we suddenly change our route? Aren't we going to the North Wind Galaxy for a tour?"
Olivia flicked her tail, splashing a few drops of water, and her bright scales shimmered with light. "I was asked by a friend to pick up a few people and then head to the Star Empire."
"Star Empire!?" Several fishmen turned pale: "Several important figures in the Star Empire are still thinking about you. Will it be dangerous for you to go back?"
"Don't worry, I've already informed the company in advance that my 10th anniversary concert will be held in the Empire. My mentor, Visa, will also be there. By then, the attention of most of the galaxy will be focused on me. I'm safe."
"Voice of the Starry Universe - Lord Visa will also be here!" Several fishmen exclaimed immediately.
If the universe has a sound, it should be the voice of Visa.
This is a praise to Visa, the Voice of the Universe. He is not just an interstellar idol, but more like a symbol.
Its prestige can even determine the rise and fall of a small civilization.
His singing has a mysterious charm, and his most amazing achievement is that he calmed down the head-on conflict between two large civilizations.
Both sides had already deployed their camps and were about to start fighting, but they were soothed by Visa's song and stopped the war.
"If you have Lord Visa, even the Star Empire will have to consider the impact. You will indeed be much safer ."
"Which friend made you change your original plan?"
Olivia smiled but didn't answer, her eyes were deep.
The alien dimension camp, this force that suddenly appeared in the interstellar space but is unquestionably powerful and mysterious to the extreme.
Countless people are wary of them but also want to get in touch with them.
Because the last person connected was Klein, and she is now the Queen of Guixing.
Olivia didn't expect Li Yu to find her. Although what he asked her to do was a bit risky, she could give it a try.
Bang! Bang!
There was a knock on the door, accompanied by the guard's report:
"Princess, we have contacted the man named Anthony and will be able to reunite soon."
…
Five days have passed since the truth was discovered that the Throne of God was created by the Star Empire, and Li Yu has embarked on the road to meditation.
He brought his own Black Eye Fleet, which was almost becoming his private army. No one would deploy it and it belonged to him alone.
However, the ship he was riding on was not the main ship of the Black Eye Fleet, but a huge warship with an irregular shape. It had no specific shape, but instead looked like a huge meteorite.
[Eye of Palpatine], this 19-kilometer-long battleship is much larger than a regular battleship, and its firepower also exceeds that of an ordinary battleship.
Originally, the alloy materials he collected were not enough to build this super battleship.
However, he used the [Reality Gem] to create a large amount of alloy materials. This raw material had almost no load on him, allowing him to forcibly build this super battleship.
The reason why Li Yu remembered today among the many dull and lonely sailing times was because of a message from the system -
Damn Number One, finally there’s news!
[Mission - Obtain the genetic sample of Star-Lord's father - Completed - Time - 476 days]
[…When you came to this world, you did not stay on Earth for too long, but went directly to the universe. You kept the mission requirements in mind, went to the planet Sovereign, and waited for the arrival of the Guardians of the Galaxy…]
When Li Yu saw this, he felt somewhat relieved. Number One had finally grown up and knew to put the mission first.
However, when he looked down, his face darkened again.
[…You met the ruler of Sovereign. The little golden people were in awe of your great strength. They used genetic engineering to produce offspring and sneered at mating…
...You think this kind of thinking is wrong, so you decide to correct their thinking, starting with the Queen...】
Damn it, Li Yu was speechless. He was almost fooled by this guy. No wonder he went directly to the universe. It turned out that he had his eyes on the little golden man.
However, the queen who rules the little golden statue does look pretty good.
Wait, this kid is not jealous because of Klein, so he has to find a queen himself.
Li Yu flipped through the large amount of "useless description" in annoyance and finally found the real key point.
[…The Sovereign rulers were obsessed with this novel feeling, until their batteries were stolen, and they decided to hire the Guardians of the Galaxy, who had recently become famous in the universe…]
...You know, we are finally getting to the point. In order to avoid being bullied by the petty subject, you must be alert and prepare a plan...
You didn't rush in. Igo's strength should not be underestimated. You decided to observe first...
...Since you didn't intervene, the story went on as normal. Star-Lord discovered the truth and fought a great battle with Ego. Outside the planet that was about to collapse, you watched everything silently...
When the final moment comes and Yondu arrives to save Star-Lord, you know it's time to act. Otherwise, if Ego is killed in the explosion, no one can tell whether the genetic tissue will still be useful...
...The golden flames that fell from the sky rushed into the depths of the earth. Under the astonished gaze of everyone, you found the severely injured Ego core and forcibly tore off a large area of its genetic structure. 】
[Mission completed - the clone has been recovered, cooling time - 100 days]
[Obtain a special item - Ego's genetic sample: The gods are a complex race. As creators, they also have strengths and weaknesses. Ego is undoubtedly not a powerful god.
But it still possesses amazing abilities——Creation and Devouring Stars】
[Special Ability - Creation - You can transform yourself into a planet and control the material and life forms on the planet's surface at will.]
[Special Ability - Star Devouring: You can differentiate your own genetic structure and place it on a certain planet. When there is enough power to support it, your genetic structure can multiply infinitely and devour the entire planet, giving yourself a powerful boost.]
After waiting for so long, clone No. 1 finally completed the task, and Li Yu finally felt relieved.
In fact, he had always been worried that the mission of clone No. 1 would fail.
It’s not just because of the powerful strength of the god, but also because of the eccentric personality of clone No. 1.
Fortunately, although this mission ended without any danger, No. 1 finally lived up to the trust and completed the mission.
Although Ego seems to be a god, in fact, his strength is not that strong and he is much easier to deal with than other gods.
At the same time, when he obtained the genetic sample, he also gained the special ability of transforming two systems.
However, although [Creation] sounds awesome, it is actually quite useless. How could it possibly turn itself into a planet?
[Swallowing Stars] is quite interesting, but the specific effect needs to be tested after fusion.
As soon as the white genetic tissue was taken out, it began to wriggle constantly in the cabin, and even showed signs of self-multiplication. Li Yu had no choice but to put it back into the system space.
He stopped the warship and waited for the space to stabilize before taking out a special circular device.
After it opened, a space wormhole was formed, allowing Li Yu to walk in.
This is a single transmission channel that leads directly to Gensokyo, which is convenient and fast.
"Master, welcome..." The projection of the little noisy guy appeared. Li Yu simply greeted him and then found Payton.
A large number of engineering robots are building a prototype experimental base here.
When Li Yu left Guixing, he emptied a large laboratory, but many senior executives tacitly agreed not to mention it.
Because of this, many experimental equipment no longer need to be purchased separately, saving a lot of trouble.
As for some more high-tech instruments, Li Yuzheng asked Payton to organize the information so that he could use the [Reality Gem] to make them directly.
After many experiments, he found that if he had a more specific understanding of what he was making, the cost would be less.
If it was pure fantasy, the cost would be extremely high, and the finished product would be very different from what he imagined.
Take military-grade alloys for example. Once he knew the general principles, he could basically get as much as he wanted. All it took was time.
Of course, this is related to the fact that the manufacturing steps of the alloy material itself are not complicated.
[Reality Gems] are by no means useless. On the contrary, they are extremely useful, but they require careful study.
"You want me to turn this thing into a gene chain for you again?" Payton guessed it when Li Yu took out the genetic tissue.
"That's right..." Li Yu shrugged.
"Okay..." Now Payton no longer had much resistance to this kind of work. [Quintasha's Scepter of Life] was right there, and he had to study it for more than ten hours every day. He was so happy.
He had the genetic tissue placed in an observation glass chamber and then took a look at the genetic structure to estimate the complexity and time.
However, just a glance made Peyton frown. He walked forward and ordered: "Turn on the gene spectrometer and the microscopic magnifying glass..."
A holographic screen popped up in front of him, showing data and symbols that Li Yu could not understand.
"What a complex genetic structure, and..." Peyton hesitated, which was extremely rare for him. "Among all the genetic structures I have seen, its complexity is second only to the incomplete Titan genetic map..."
"What do you mean?" Li Yu asked.
Payton took a deep breath. "The more complex the gene structure, the more difficult it is to modulate. More materials are needed to adapt to its characteristics. I'm afraid I can't do it alone..."
"After saying so much, it just can't be done..." Li Yu was speechless.
Peyton's face darkened, and he said in a deep voice: "I can try, but it will take a long time, you need to be mentally prepared."
"It takes a long time?" Li Yu frowned slightly and asked, "Is there any way to shorten the time?"
Payton replied: "Find someone, a gene chain modulation expert at the same level as me, or even higher."
"Is there a gene chain modulation expert who is more awesome than you?"
"Of course..." Payton looked at him in confusion, not knowing why Li Yu had such confidence in him: "I'm just stronger, not the strongest."
"Okay, I get it." Li Yu felt a little bored when he saw that Payton didn't understand his teasing. If it was a hunter, he would definitely understand it.
"Isn't there any expert in this area in the other-dimensional camp? Why don't you let them take action?" Payton was a little confused.
He was simply curious about the question itself and had no other doubts.
Li Yu looked calm and said, "I stole this from the warehouse. If someone from the organization took action, it would be exposed."
Stolen?
Faced with Li Yu's honesty, even Payton was speechless at the moment.
But when he thought about it carefully, he was not surprised at all when this kind of behavior happened to Li Yu.
Because this thing is relatively strong, they stole it to make the gene chain. Because they were afraid of being discovered, they did not allow people within the organization to take action. This was reasonable.
Payton warned, "Then you have to be careful. Based on my experience, this gene sample may be very precious."
"If you were discovered, you would definitely be in big trouble."
Li Yu shrugged: "So I have to make it into a gene chain as soon as possible. The organization can't kill me by then, right?"
Payton was speechless again.
"By the way, when you are free, please find me a stronger gene chain that matches mine." Li Yu said immediately.
Payton nodded: "Well, you are the second evolution, there is really no need to use this gene directly. It won't be too late to use it when you are the fourth or fifth evolution."
He also thought that Li Yu wanted to temporarily use other gene chains instead because the modulation time was too long.
"Hmm." Li Yu did not comment. He actually wanted to wait until the Superman gene chain was fully developed, and then the [Code of Life] could be loaded with another gene chain.
And this day will come soon, so he asked Payton to help him find one in advance.
After returning to the Eye of Palpatine from Gensokyo, he added another line to his planner - looking for an expert in gene chain modulation.
The battleship entered the jump orbit again, disappeared into the empty starry sky, and continued to head towards Meditation's territory to receive his spoils.
