Chapter 570: Factional Struggle?
Li Yu really didn't expect that the other party actually had the same idea as him. They both wanted to use the other party to attract the attention of the Star Empire and then hide themselves secretly.
Li Yu's original plan was to pull out this disappeared civilization to take the blame.
Let the Star Empire confirm that there is indeed a force hiding in the dark, and don't let them keep an eye on the alien camp all day.
The essence is to make a cut. After all, based on the information from Loren and Peyton, the Star Empire is still very wary of the disappeared civilization.
With them around, they can attract a considerable amount of firepower.
But now the other party and he have the same idea, both want to frame the other party by attacking the dimensional world, which creates a strange picture.
It is difficult to believe that these two crime scenes were the result of actions by two different forces.
Just as Hasband believed, these were two actions taken by the forces behind Li Yu, but they were good at different methods.
Throughout the galaxy, most forces already know that the Transformation Legion is Li Yu’s standard equipment.
It’s not that other forces can’t imitate it, but no one will imitate this kind of thing except for framing others.
If you dare to imitate it today, the black network and the Abyss Research Institute will come to your door tomorrow.
They don't know that you are a counterfeit. They just treat you as a substitute for Li Yu for fun first.
Not all forces have a Guixing as an outer barrier.
Given the preconceived notions, it is already difficult to separate the two sides into two forces.
"The plan seems to have to change..." Li Yu lowered his head and thought.
Since it is impossible to cut, then we will carry out deep binding and let the Star Empire completely equate the alien dimensional camp with the disappeared civilization!
Anyway, he is alone, so it won't be a loss if he can get a truly hidden large organization on board.
There is just one problem that needs to be solved, and that is to prevent the Star Empire from pointing the finger at him again when no other clues can be found.
After all, Li Yu is now the only apparent actor in that disappeared civilization.
"Factional dispute...maybe a good reason." Li Yu's eyes lit up slightly, and then he looked at Hasband.
Hasband was waiting for Li Yu's next words. He didn't know why the other party fell into a long silence.
However, he always felt that this guy was up to no good.
"Actually, we have two opinions among us on whether to set foot in the main universe..." Li Yu was a little hesitant.
Hasband's eyes flickered slightly. This sentence contained a lot of information.
To a certain extent, Li Yu has admitted that the civilization that the Star Empire is tracking down is the alien dimension camp.
He showed a listening attitude just right and said, "Can you explain it in detail? I might be able to give you some suggestions."
Li Yu was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "This is our internal matter, but since they have already attacked two dimensional worlds, the specific situation should be clear soon."
Then, he said with a hint of sarcasm: "Your goal has been achieved. Now the main target of the Star Empire is definitely not you."
"Alas..." Hasband sighed and smiled bitterly, "We just provided some information. The ideas of the organization behind you are not something we can influence."
"But it is this information of yours that has made the other faction..." Li Yu snorted coldly and hung up the phone without finishing his words.
As the screen in front of him went dark, the bitter smile on Hasband's face faded, turning into an indifferent expression. He said, "Contact the middleman between us and the Empire and tell them that there is news of a deal..."
…
In the Empire's highest conference hall, the magnificent portal covered with ancient patterns has not been opened for a long time, and the fully armed guards are performing their duties meticulously.
"News has come from the Reformers. They provided some information about the Forerunners. It is said that the Forerunners have split into two factions..." Loren said calmly, as if being in secret contact with the Reformers was no big deal to him.
"Some of them seem to want to set foot in the main universe, while others don't. They want to use this news to make us stop hunting down the Reformers..."
"That's a good idea..." Mogan laughed twice, "But it's time to stop. We've killed most of their people. If we keep killing them, they'll be destroyed."
"By then, it is very likely that a large number of unknown small resistance organizations will pop up everywhere, causing great trouble."
When the Reformer exists , everyone in the Star Empire will think of the Reformer whenever they think of resistance.
As for the Star Empire, it only needs to search according to the reformers.
Once the Reformers are destroyed, a large number of various resistance organizations will spring up like mushrooms after a rain in the Star Empire.
By then, it will be a lot more troublesome than it is now.
"Then stop. The remaining members are all very well hidden. It will take a while to find out." The emperor at the top said, "Let's focus on the forerunners first."
"I originally thought they would do everything they could to get rid of their tail and hide, but I didn't expect them to openly attack our dimensional base."
"Perhaps they think they have the capital to fight against us." said a noble controller.
"If we have such ability, there won't be another voice." Mo Gan shook his head, and a sinister smile appeared on his pale cheeks: "Since their identities have been basically confirmed, why not just capture Li Yu and lure the snake out of its hole."
"This guy should have a high status among the pioneers."
"I don't recommend this..." Loren shook his head: "According to the information provided by the Reformers, the Forerunners are divided into two factions."
"This is good news for us. We are not sure which faction Li Wu belongs to. If we arrest him, it will cause the voices of the two factions to merge into one, which will be troublesome."
Tallamar agreed: "The war with the Forerunners will inevitably be protracted. They have been hiding for so many years and suddenly started to act. If they are not sure of self-protection, they will not be so reckless."
"I think maybe we can get in touch with Li Yu," Loren suggested.
"You want to win him over?" Morgan sneered, "You really can't forget about this experiment."
"You should all know that the brutal procedures of internal factional wars are not much different from external wars." Loren remained indifferent.
"Besides, it would probably take a lot of effort to catch him."
But as soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of everyone present changed slightly.
The Emperor spoke at this moment: "Continue to track down the forerunners and confirm this news. Li Yu is just a pawn in the open. He was absorbed by the Later Heaven. You can get in touch with him."
"Take action when necessary."
He basically stayed out of discussions and just issued orders.
"yes……"
…
Not long after that, another meeting took place in a secret place.
"...We have basically found out that when we were attacking the Dimension Time, another group of people were attacking another station of the Star Empire. Their purpose should be similar to ours."
Blurry projections circled the sides of the table, and someone was giving a presentation.
"...According to the intelligence department's speculation, there is an 87.5% chance that this is an alien camp."
The reporter's projection disappeared from the center, and many senior executives fell into a long silence.
They wanted to curse, they didn't expect that they and the alien camp had such a tacit understanding and actually came up with the same idea.
"The intelligence department told me that this matter is troublesome..." The voice of the man at the top was vague, and it was unclear whether it was a man or a woman. After being magnetized, he said: "Due to the purpose of these two events, the time nodes of occurrence are extremely similar."
"So those idiots in the Star Empire are likely to identify us and the alien camp as the same force."
No one responded from the numerous projections; they were all trying to digest this outrageous news.
The attempt to frame someone failed and he ended up getting himself covered in shit.
Now things are taking a completely opposite path.
Originally, the Star Empire had not confirmed the existence of the Forerunners, but because of suspicion, it began to investigate in this direction.
The Forerunners are not like the extra-dimensional camps, which do not exist at all. Instead, they are often active in the main universe.
The Xingyao Empire focused on this direction and investigated, and actually found some clues.
The purpose of their action this time is to correct the direction of the Star Empire's investigation. Instead of investigating these tails, why not investigate Li Yu directly?
As a result, they collided with the other party, which allowed the Star Empire to directly confirm their existence.
"Actually, this is not a bad thing..." someone whispered .
"Go on." The man at the top glanced over and said.
"If we are the only one facing the Star Empire, the pressure will still be a bit too much. If we add that alien camp, perhaps..."
He didn't finish his words, but everyone understood roughly what he was saying.
This coincided with their original idea, which was to find someone to attract the attention of Xingyao's country.
But the only drawback is that they are also completely exposed.
Someone agreed: "The strength of the alien camp is quite good. It won't be a big disadvantage for us if the Star Empire has this perception."
"And we can use this opportunity to seize target T1. We couldn't do it in a big way before because we had to hide our identity, but this time... maybe we can get it."
Another person also said: "Although the Xingyao Empire has found some clues, it is not so easy to follow those clues to find the whole thread."
"If the Xingyao Empire can't find our location, then there is only one person who will suffer from all our actions now, and that's Li Yu!"
After these words were spoken, the conference room became a little noisy.
Someone immediately said: "That's right, now that things have come to this, we should seek the greatest benefit under the circumstances."
"We have been planning for T1 for a long time, and this is indeed a good opportunity."
"The other party wanted to frame us, but they forgot that they had a target in plain sight!"
“…”
The blurry figure at the top pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, let's act. Since the alien camp has good intentions, we can't let them down!"
The meeting ended and many projections disappeared as they went about their business.
…
Li Yu thought everything would be peaceful for a few days, but suddenly he received a communication request from Loren.
This noble ruler, one of the eight people with the highest status in the Star Empire, did not exchange pleasantries and went straight to the point:
"Which faction do you belong to among the Forerunners? Do you want to set foot in the main universe or continue to hide?"
The Forerunners? The hidden civilization?
Li Yu was slightly stunned. He was really surprised. He thought the other party's way of asking would be more tactful, but he didn't expect it to be so direct.
Then his expression calmed down, and he realized that Hasband had sold him out.
He didn't expect Hasben to act so quickly. Not even half a day after he started talking, Loren knew the news.
The reason why he deliberately induced Husband was not because he had foresight and knew that Husband would sell him out.
Rather, after this period of contact, it was discovered that Husband was not a person with any moral integrity.
In the critical moment of the reformers, he probably wouldn't mind betraying some "friends" to get a chance to breathe.
And I can just use him to spread the term "factional dispute".
Originally, Hasband's move was just a casual one. He didn't expect it to play a role quickly. He also wanted to let the Ark of Salvation spread the news.
I didn't expect that I had overestimated the moral integrity of this old fox.
"What did he get for selling us?" Li Yu did not answer the question directly, but asked instead.
He didn't pretend to deny it. There was no point in pretending now.
"For the next period of time, the reformers will not be subject to large-scale hunts." Loren answered calmly, and then added:
“In fact, because of your existence, we don’t have much energy to invest in change makers.”
"This price...is not bad..." Li Yu shrugged, not seeming angry.
"So what's your answer?" Loren brought the topic back and stared at Li Yu.
"The people behind me don't want to set foot in the main universe." Li Yu said nonsense.
"This does surprise me a little..." Loren looked indifferent, not showing any surprise.
"We are growing well, why would we suddenly come out to provoke a giant like you?" Li Yu said leisurely with his legs on the table:
"Not everyone remembers hatred, there is still a part of the people who want peace."
"Although I am active in the main universe, to some extent, I am not considered a core member of theirs. I just have some value."
Loren nodded, seeming to agree with this, and said:
"Do you have any information to provide?"
"Ha..." Li Yu laughed, "Even if we are not from the same faction, you can't expect me to betray them."
Loren was not surprised by this answer. He just shook his head and said, "The forerunners have disappeared for such a long time. The original generation has long disappeared. There is no need to continue the hatred."
"Perhaps we can coexist peacefully. This is no longer the same era as before. If you have any ideas, you can contact me directly." It was the first time Loren had met him, and he didn't seem to be thinking of digging out any big news directly, but just planting a seed.
"This matter..." Li Yu's expression flickered and he pretended to be hesitant.
But Loren had already hung up the phone, and the screen was dark.
