Chapter 553: Infiltration
This is a vast white space. There is no other color here, only empty white light.
However, when the line of sight moved downward and passed through a light energy absorbing barrier, what appeared before one's eyes was a research base with no end in sight.
The multifunctional crawler transporter was transporting a large amount of white crystals along a specific track, passing over the single-person flying device at low altitude. The buzzing sound of the anti-gravity device came from far away, then disappeared from the ears.
Below it, a special chain made of black metal hung a life form emitting white light. Some dazzling liquid dripped onto the ground, making a hissing sound.
A large number of fully armed soldiers patrol every corner, and various monitoring equipment operates around the clock to prevent any accidents from happening.
In the central command room, nervous-looking staff members stared at the holographic screen in front of them.
Suddenly, a red light flashed on the holographic screen, and a warning font popped up -
"Warning - abnormal spatial fluctuations detected, please send someone to check as soon as possible."
The staff in front of him hurriedly opened the map and found that the abnormal space fluctuation was in the corner of the base.
He called up the nearest surveillance camera, but found that the signal was intermittent. He immediately turned on the channel and ordered: "TV-66 Detachment, there is an abnormal space fluctuation about 70 meters away from you, please go and check it out."
"Confirm whether it was an accidental touch by a Light Spirit Lifeform. Please make sure to reply every 30 seconds. Use the reply code *42."
"If something unexpected happens, we will initiate emergency measures."
"Yes!" A dull reply came from the channel. The staff member did not relax at all and still stared at the map closely.
Now is a critical moment, and we must be vigilant to any insignificant abnormal situation.
TV-66 team increased their vigilance and, under the leadership of the captain, dispersed into a formation and headed towards the abnormal location step by step.
They stared at the exploration radar and stopped cautiously after reaching a corner.
After making a few gestures, the captain took a sudden step forward with the energy rifle in his hand and turned to aim at the other side of the corner.
“Squeak, squeak!”
The palm-sized light spirit life form on the ground made a squeaking sound.
The captain looked slightly relieved. After glancing at the detection radar, he reported, "It has been confirmed that it was a light spirit life form that accidentally touched it. The radiation from its body interfered with the signal transmission of the monitoring probe."
This kind of light spirit life form is not very powerful among the indigenous life forms in the light dimension.
But they have a special ability, which is to use light to transfer space.
These light spirits often cause trouble to the base, but this base cannot lock the space.
Because they often need to use space for transfer or transportation.
Upon hearing this, the staff in the command room couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and turned off the alarm.
The captain pulled out a metal device from his waist and quickly threw it at the light spirit on the ground.
The palm-sized light spirit had no specific form. After being disturbed, a twisted vortex appeared on the surface of its body, as if it wanted to escape.
But the metal device opened quickly, and a small-scale space disturbance wave dissipated, directly blocking it.
Bang!
With a muffled sound, the ball of light exploded on the spot. At this time, a team member walked to the corner, picked up a nameplate from the ground, and whispered:
"Dr. Paul Newster..."
"It's mine..." A strange voice came from behind. Everyone turned around quickly and raised the energy guns in their hands at the same time.
"Our own people, our own people..." the man behind said hurriedly. He was wearing a white research suit and looked a little frightened. He had thin cheeks and a high nose bridge.
"I just passed by here and dropped the nameplate here. I'm so sorry."
When the captain saw him, he subconsciously felt that he was familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before, and he must be one of their own.
"Captain, it is indeed Dr. Boller." The team members had already scanned the name tag and compared it with the internal database, and the image that popped up was exactly Boller's.
After confirming the information was correct, the captain lowered his gun and said slowly, "I'm sorry, Dr. Polier, there has just been a space disturbance here, so we are a little cautious."
"It's okay. This is your duty." He walked forward, took the nameplate, hung it on his chest, and smiled.
"Then let us take you back." The captain offered.
The status of these senior researchers is still higher than that of these ordinary soldiers.
As long as there is no problem with the other party's identity, they have to be respectful.
"Okay." Polir nodded, but he was thinking in his heart that the power of this [Black Widow] was quite strong.
This group of soldiers did not conduct any additional verification on him, such as voiceprint, fingerprint or gene comparison.
There was no investigation of his movements by the command room, as if they trusted him completely.
Obviously, this person is Li Yu in disguise, because there is no dimensional controller in the dimension of light.
So the Abyss Research Institute didn't know that he had sneaked in.
As he expected, the entire dimension of light was under high surveillance by the Abyss Research Institute.
It is simply impossible to plant the Devouring Flower in a corner.
After discovering this research base, he did not act rashly, but observed the surroundings for a while.
He only started to act after he discovered that the light spirit might accidentally trigger the internal space monitoring device.
However, the reason why he returned and met with this group of soldiers was to test the effect of [Black Widow].
If [Black Widow] is not good enough, then he can only run away immediately.
But now it seems pretty good.
He looked calm and walked into the research base under the escort of the soldiers.
In the center of the base, there is a white spiral beam of light that shoots straight into the sky, and it is unknown where it extends to.
"That should be the trans-temporal and spatial connection channel recorded in the information of the Ark of Savior..." Li Yu pondered to himself.
The light dimension and the shadow dimension are in different locations.
However, the Abyss Research Institute does not have the technology to move dimensions, so it can only borrow other technologies to complete this fusion.
"If I blow it up directly..." Li Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, and then secretly said: "No, it's completely useless. I can just blow it up and build another one. It won't have much impact on the Abyss Research Institute."
"We're here. We don't have permission to enter the interior of the research base." The captain spoke up. He was wearing heavy black armor, and it was unknown what race they were.
"Well, thank you." Li Yu nodded, then used the nameplate to open the door of the research institute and walked straight in.
Polier is a senior researcher who reports directly to Dr. Sagoula, a once famous interstellar figure.
He graduated from the Star Empire Academy and has profound attainments in quantum space and dimensional space.
However, for some reason, he did not join the Imperial Research Institute, but instead joined the Abyss Research Institute, where he was responsible for the light and shadow dimension fusion project.
People come and go in the research base, and Polier has a high status. At least most researchers will greet him.
He couldn't enter the core laboratory for the time being because various verification procedures were required, so he had to stand in front of the door and look for an opportunity.
This strange behavior attracted the attention of many researchers, but no one doubted it.
About half a day later, a senior researcher came in from outside, apparently preparing to enter the core laboratory.
Li Yu followed behind him calmly, half a body length behind.
"Polier, is the relaxation over?" he asked casually.
Li Yu responded dully with just a "hmm".
The other party didn't think much about it, opened the core laboratory, and the two walked in together.
"I'm back..." Sagula was standing in front of the holographic screen, with a large amount of data and symbols constantly interweaving.
Li Yu couldn't understand any of it and felt a little confused.
However, he remained calm and nodded, "Yes."
"Now that the time for relaxation is over, let's focus on research..."
Sagoula turned his back to him and said to himself:
"According to the Shival Energy Formula..."
What followed was a bunch of terms and formulas that Li Yu couldn't understand, which made him extremely confused.
"...According to this progress, it will take about nine days to weaken the light dimension to the same energy level as the shadow dimension."
"After nine days, we can conduct fusion experiments."
Another senior researcher came over and frowned, "Dr. Sakula, I still think that this method will greatly weaken the stability of the light dimension and may cause additional impact on the light and shadow dimension."
"I know that too." Sagula turned his head. He had fair skin, sharp eyes, and some data could be vaguely seen emerging on his gold-framed glasses.
The loose research coat could not hide her enchanting figure.
That’s right, Dr. Sagula is a beauty as defined by interstellar humans.
At this moment, she frowned and said, "I didn't want this to happen, but Shadow Demon, that idiot, caused the power of the Shadow Dimension to dissipate by one-fifth at this critical moment."
"We can only weaken the power of the light dimension. Otherwise, the power of the light dimension and the shadow dimension will be unequal, which will more easily lead to dimensional collapse."
The researcher shook his head: "What I mean is that the fusion of light and shadow dimensions can wait. There is no need to be so anxious."
Sagoula shook his head: "I don't want to be so anxious, but the leader said that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Most forces are attracted by the fight between the Abyss, Black Network and Guixing."
“For this, it’s worth taking some risks.”
Li Yu was listening nearby, and he didn't expect that he could obtain the specific fusion time so easily.
And because of the power of the shadow dimension that was swallowed last time, the Abyss Research Institute had to weaken the power of the light dimension to make the two dimensions equal.
"What do you think, Polier..." Sagula suddenly turned his head and looked at Polier.
Li Yu's eyelids moved slightly, and he said calmly: "Since it is the leader's order, we can't say anything."
"However, we have been studying this for such a long time that we are quite confident."
After listening to this, Sagula stared at Li Yu with a twinkling look in his eyes: "You didn't like the leader before, why do you suddenly agree with him so much?"
Li Yu's heart skipped a beat, which was why he didn't take the initiative to speak just now.
Due to the short time, he did not get any information from Boliel, let alone know this guy 's daily living habits.
It can be easily spotted by people who are familiar with it.
"But you are right, he is the leader, we just need to obey his orders." Sagula did not delve into it, but turned around and continued to work.
Obviously, this was again the work of Black Widow. If he didn't have this ability, he would have been discovered long ago.
However, if he hadn't obtained this ability, he wouldn't have thought of sneaking in.
Colleagues around him continued to work. Li Yu pretended to work for a while. When someone called him to help, he made excuses to refuse.
Thanks to [Black Widow], he was able to wander around the laboratory without arousing anyone else's suspicion.
The entire laboratory is very spacious and is filled with a large number of precision instruments, while in some corners there are some green plants and flowers.
According to casual hints, this was all cultivated by Sagoula, and the doctor obviously has his own little quirks.
"What's wrong with you today?" Sagula suddenly appeared beside him.
"I didn't do any research, but just stared at my flowers."
"Nothing..." Li Yu shook his head, but pulled out a red flower from his sleeve and handed it to Sagula: "For you, Doctor..."
Sagoula's face turned cold and he scolded, "What did you cultivate?!"
The senior researchers around noticed the commotion here and looked at each other with strange expressions.
Today, Polier was really awesome, he even dared to provoke Sagula.
I really can't believe that Polier, this dull guy, is so coquettish behind the scenes and even secretly cultivates flowers.
At this critical moment, Bollier behaved in a way that was inconsistent with his previous actions, but no one doubted him.
Instead, I secretly gave him a thumbs up in my heart.
"I just want to see you..." Li Yu was about to speak, but was interrupted by Sakula: "Just work peacefully. If you do it again, I will have the Abyss Research Institute fire you."
"You should know that those who are fired from the Abyss Research Institute will have their memories wiped. You definitely don't want to experience that kind of pain."
Sagula turned and left, and Li Yu stood in the corner for a long time before inserting the red flower into the cultivation trough.
"Dr. Sagula is just a cold-tempered person, don't mind it." Someone even came to comfort Polier.
Li Yu was speechless and walked out of the core laboratory on his own. He found his room according to the signs in the base.
"The Devouring Flower has been sent in. Without in-depth testing, no one will discover the strange genetic structure in the flower." Li Yu's eyes flashed.
"And after what happened today, I'm afraid no one will touch that flower except Sakula."
It is impossible for his real body to stay here forever. Even with the Black Widow, there is a high possibility that he will not be discovered.
However, due to his lack of scientific knowledge, he could not join any research and was still at risk of being discovered.
So he prepared to leave first, but before that, he needed to transform the real Polir into a Force body in case he could come at any time.
He waved his hand casually, and the real Boller appeared on the bed. The man he had just knocked unconscious temporarily was sealed up.
