Chapter 510: Public Opinion and Yuxu Palace
"His attitude is very strong. He doesn't look like he has no support. There is no need to pay too much to fight for something that is not of much value."
The head of the black network organization shook his head.
"Well, let's retreat. We don't have much to lose anyway."
"It's just that Li Yu solved the problem alone this time. I wanted to test that organization."
"He is strong enough and has many means, so he can naturally solve the problem. Let's retreat, let's retreat, it's good to watch the show, and go back to analyze the video carefully..."
"That's right, no one scolded us, so we just left." Such a sentence suddenly popped up in the channel, and the atmosphere immediately became quite subtle.
“Who said that!?”
The head of the black network organization immediately questioned with murderous intent.
Unfortunately, the organization that sent this message had already left here. After tracking the signal, it was discovered that it was the outer fleet of the spiritual civilization.
"grass!"
The leader of the black network organization cursed angrily, and the leaders of other forces couldn't help laughing.
"Didn't he tell you his Black Hole Bank account? Why not just block it and teach him a lesson?" someone suggested.
"No!" He said righteously: "Black Hole Bank is service-oriented. Even if Li Yu insults us again, we can't ban his account."
Black Hole Bank is one of the main businesses of the black network organization and an important pillar for them to survive.
Because the application is anonymous, even black network organizations cannot know who the real owner behind each account is.
It’s just that Li Yu personally said the account number when he was communicating with him just now.
"Great... It's worthy of being a black network..." The other organizations praised it without knowing whether it was true or not, and then left.
"... a poor old dog..."
The channel fell into silence. The head of the black network organization seemed to hear Li Yu's scolding, which made him a little unhappy.
"Humph, no matter how poor we are, you can't just look down on us." His eyes flashed with a cold light, and he ordered:
"Check his Black Hole Network account for me and clear the amount in it!"
The way he looks now, and the demeanor he had when he spoke righteously just now.
His men acted quickly and found the account based on the numbers provided by Li Yu. However, the amount shown on it shocked him - 25,041.
"Sir, this account was applied for 78 years ago, and has not been touched for more than 46 years." The subordinate found the specific information.
Obviously, what Li Yu told him at the time was a random account and not his own account at all.
"Liar!" he cursed, his anger boiling.
…
Although the decisive retreat of several forces was somewhat beyond Li Yu's expectations, it was reasonable upon closer thought.
Without sufficient benefits, they will not take risks, and they do not have the means like Li Yu to directly transform faith into combat power.
Even if we rob the man-made gods, it won't be of much use.
It took the Black Eye Fleet about three days to clear out the entire meditation organization's stronghold on the planet.
Not only did they contain the confidential intelligence they had collected, but they also contained a large number of experimental personnel and cutting-edge equipment, enough to support the operation of two or three large experimental bases, which could be sent to Payton.
…
"Commander Zeth, the basic mission has been completed. Do we need to thoroughly clean up this planet?"
The sergeant under his command came over to ask, but the hunter was dealing with some other matters and was slightly hesitant when he heard this.
The so-called thorough cleaning means removing all moving objects from the surface of the planet.
"Forget it..." The hunter thought for a moment and said, "The entire galaxy knows that the Black Eye Fleet belongs to Li Yu. If a large-scale massacre is spread by someone with ulterior motives, it may cause some bad effects."
"Besides, this planet is already on the brink of collapse. We just need to wait for it to self-destruct."
"Yes..." The subordinate took the order and left.
…
During these three days, the images of Li Yu's battle on the planet Sak were all over the Internet and spread quickly.
During this period of time, returning to the star has been the main topic of discussion in interstellar public opinion.
As a war maniac with a series of titles and the rumored boyfriend of Queen Klein, Li Yu has always been a topic of discussion.
This battle video has further increased the level of discussion.
Isn't it said through the grapevine that Li Yu has been staying in the Queen's bedroom frequently recently?
Why did you suddenly run to the Silver Arm Star Region?
Still fighting on the planet! ?
However, after a brief gestation period, this time it caused not admiration or ridicule, but horror!
The video footage that circulated recorded the entire process without any omissions.
At the same time, the film also recorded the fanatical believers who died in the aftermath of the war , cutting out their hideous and twisted sides and leaving only the feeling of powerlessness in the face of powerful life forms.
This caused an uproar among the people.
The oppression of ordinary life forms by higher life forms has been a long-standing topic in the interstellar space, but it has always been consciously kept within a controllable range by various civilizations.
The privileged class has existed since ancient times, and as long as the specific differences are not exposed, everyone will just get by.
However, the video of this battle fully demonstrated the helplessness and panic of ordinary life forms, triggering intense discussion and condemnation.
After Li Yu's birth, he became the focus of attention in the interstellar world in just a few years.
It is precisely because of his own uniqueness that the impact of this event continues to expand.
Bang!
The wine glass was smashed down hard, and the yellow liquid inside pumped out and spilled onto the table. Gust watched the news broadcast on the TV on the wall, where several critics were discussing the incident.
"...Based on the video alone, the casualties caused by this battle are estimated to be over 100 million..."
"...and according to the battle scene, the planet has been completely destroyed, and the deaths will continue..."
He took a sip of wine, liquid dripping from the corner of his mouth, and said hatefully:
"Humph, these damn advanced life forms don't even consider us ordinary people as their own kind!"
"That's right, these advanced life forms should be restrained. They can kill tens of millions of people at will!" someone echoed.
It is obvious that someone is behind this incident and is trying to push Li Yu to the opposite side of ordinary citizens.
Although ordinary citizens may not seem to have much influence, the entire interstellar system is built on these ordinary citizens.
It is difficult to establish a complete social system with only advanced life forms.
Guixing responded to this extremely quickly, issuing an announcement, a video, and a large amount of information.
Guixing claimed that the planet was originally controlled by an evil god, and all life forms on it had been changed, and their minds had become puppets.
Li Yu accepted the request of a civilization in the Silver Ring Arm and went to deal with these evil gods.
They also provided video evidence and information, which were videos of the meditation organization cultivating believers, collected from their headquarters.
The secrets of the meditation organization were completely revealed. Those creatures with hideous faces and chanting to unknown gods had obviously lost their sanity and could not be called self-conscious life forms.
At the same time, in the Silver Arm star field, the leaders of civilizations also issued a statement, declaring that they had requested support from Guixing.
For a time, interstellar public opinion was divided. On the one hand, it was believed that even believers of the evil god should not be dealt with in such a simple and crude way.
They should be restored to normal and taken good care of.
Other citizens who had been personally harmed by the evil god expressed their strong agreement.
Some of their relatives and friends have become believers of evil gods. Those believers of evil gods cannot be called "human beings" at all. They do not recognize their relatives, are tyrannical and terrifying, and cannot be awakened at all.
Together with the people who came to watch the show for fun, they had an extreme quarrel in the interstellar space, which was very lively.
…
"Fortunately, I did not order the complete elimination of that planet at that time, otherwise the current public opinion storm would probably be even more exaggerated." The hunter was somewhat fortunate that he had thought one step further.
Li Yu didn't care much about it. He lay on the soft sofa and watched a serious-looking guy being interviewed on the holographic screen.
There is a horizontal line next to this guy, explaining his origin - Gosling, the President of Morton Civilization.
"…This crisis has made me see clearly who are my true friends and who are the most important people in the interstellar space…"
"...Although I have never met Queen Klein, I now have great respect for her..."
"...I believe this is a great ruler. Under her leadership, Guixing will reach its peak..."
"...Regarding the incident involving Duke Li Yu, I think he couldn't think too much about the situation at the time. If he didn't kill the evil god on the spot and spread it to other planets, it would cause more killings..."
"...Although I have never met him, I believe that he is a righteous man and will not kill indiscriminately..."
Click, the light and shadow lines intersected in the middle, and the holographic screen went out. Li Yu felt a little funny. With such flattering words, the president was determined to cling to Gui Xing's thigh.
"...There must be someone behind this public opinion storm, and no one has the specific battle video except those organizations." The hunter added.
"Don't worry. Public opinion is already divided. Once Guixing officials release a few more victims of the evil god to cry, the situation will basically calm down slowly..."
Li Yu shook his head. As soon as the public opinion storm broke out, he contacted the Guixing official and provided some video footage of the Meditation Organization experiment.
As a top civilization, Guixing naturally has plans to deal with unfavorable public opinion, coupled with Li Yu’s proposal.
After just a few moves, the unfavorable public opinion against him had changed direction.
By the time he gets back, the situation should have calmed down.
"I'll go to Yuxu Palace, and when I come back, we can return." Li Yu stood up, threw out a mechanical device, and opened a space channel on the ground.
He changed the name of Gensokyo to Yuxu Palace to satisfy his bad taste.
"I'll go with you and take a look..." the hunter said after hesitating for a moment.
Li Yu glanced at this guy. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but the hunter seemed to be worried these days.
"Then let's go..."
"You go first. I still have some tasks to hand out."
Li Yu shrugged, stepped into the space channel and came to Yuxu Palace. Compared with the previous paradise, it now feels a bit like a steel jungle.
Tall metal bases are everywhere, engineering robots are still working, the ground is full of traces of tracks, and various precision instruments are packaged in metal boxes and moved to where they should be.
A part of the experimental base is already in operation, mainly used to modulate the gene chain of the gods, and is already on the right track.
Li Yu found Payton, who was studying the flesh and blood of the thief, pulling out a lot of data, and explained in layman's terms:
"This flesh and blood is somewhat peculiar. Although it is deformed, it contains some special particle cells. However, the special method of replicating the body state should be given by this chain."
Then, he pointed at the black chain in the observation room and said:
"This is not a Titan creation. It is more like an object born in a special environment. It should come from another dimension and have a certain degree of self-awareness."
"You can call it a dimensional creation."
"Other dimensions? Dimensional creations?" Li Yu's mind moved slightly, which directly made him think of the Abyss Research Institute.
This thief is from the Abyss Research Institute?
"Your armor has almost swallowed up that armor." Payton took Li Yu to another room, and the [Symbiotic Suit] quickly covered Li Yu.
During this period, it was devouring the newly acquired Phantom Dragon Armor to increase its own strength.
"Can my armor swallow those two chains?" Li Yu asked.
"It should be possible. Your armor is very unique, but my suggestion is not to do it for now. The self-awareness in the chain complements its own power." Payton casually called up a large amount of data that Li Yu could not understand:
"If your armor devours, it is likely to annihilate the self-awareness within it, causing it to lose its power."
"Okay then..." Li Yu nodded and did not force it. He just thought that the chain he got would have to be put aside for the time being.
"How long does it take to modulate the gene chain?" Li Yu asked the question that concerned him most.
"With the current manpower and sufficient resources, it will take at least three months," Payton estimated.
"That's okay..." Li Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Payton was still helpful and didn't give him a time span in years.
At this moment, the belated hunter came hurriedly, looking a little solemn, and the first thing he said when he saw Li Yu was: "Something happened!"
"Horus, dead!"
