Chapter 575: Time Reversal
A black market somewhere, a hangout for vagrants, looters and wanted criminals. Skulls of alien creatures are hung on the rusty metal walls, making it look creepy and terrifying.
They drank cup after cup of turbid liquid. These people were living on the edge of a knife, with no tomorrow.
If you have star coins, you will spend them. Once all the star coins are used up, you will think about going out to do missions.
But today, they gathered in twos and threes, seemingly discussing something in a low voice, and it was obvious that something big had happened.
"Have you heard? An organization called Forerunner suddenly appeared and attacked several outlying outposts of the Star Empire one after another. They are awesome..." A ferocious scarred man whispered to his friend.
"Hey, what's the outdated news you're getting..." An interstellar werewolf not far away shouted loudly, with the translator flashing red: "The forerunners are actually an alien camp."
"You know the Other Dimension Camp, right? It's the organization where Li Yu from Guixing, the one who had an affair with the Queen and Queen of Guixing, belongs to."
“Can you please get to the point? I’m tired of watching those synthesized videos…” Scarface said coldly.
The werewolf seemed a little dazed, otherwise he wouldn't have acted so strangely: "The point? The point is, these two organizations are actually one."
"The Other Dimension Camp or the Forerunners are just nicknames. They belong to two factions with different goals. It is said that they are incompatible with each other."
"Hehe, what an idiot! I don't know where you got the information from, but you just blurt it out." Scarface sneered.
"Are you laughing at your grandpa?" The wolf-headed man moved suddenly, with a fishy wind blowing in his face. In the blink of an eye, he knocked the scarred man to the ground. Sticky liquid dripped from his sharp white teeth and flowed on the terrified scarred face.
"Fighting is not allowed in the black market." The bartender warned in a low voice, but did not look up and continued to wipe the bar.
The werewolf then slowly stood up and said contemptuously: "You are lucky. If you don't agree, follow me."
He staggered out, but Scarface didn't move.
Such scenes occurred in multiple places, and the news began to spread at an extremely fast speed, not only on the black hole network, but also on the interstellar network.
Most people don't take this matter seriously.
The interstellar space is vast and boundless, and the cost of traveling is high, so many people will never leave their own galaxy in their entire lives.
Whether it is the forerunners or the alien dimension camp, they are too far away from them.
Even with the specious title of "lost civilization", it is still considered a civilization without any real reason.
Not many people take it seriously. After all, no one knows in which remote corner of the interstellar space a hidden force may pop up.
…
"I have spread the news according to your idea, and reached a deal with the Star Empire and gained some benefits." Kodry said in a gentle tone on the holographic screen.
"Okay, thank you this time." Li Yu nodded.
"You're welcome. We are the ones who benefited. Thanks to your information, we exchanged some precious materials from the Star Empire and overcame many difficulties." Cordri shook his head.
"It's okay. It's just a way of repaying the favor you gave me last time." Li Yu said casually.
Cordelli smiled and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Why did you spread this kind of news? It won't do you any good."
"I'm not interested in taking the blame for some people. Some people think that my identity is flawed and have always refused to accept me. Why should I take the blame for them?" Li Yu said half-truthfully:
"After all, I am in the open. If they cause something too big, I will have to bear the consequences in the end."
Codry did not comment. This was an internal matter of the other party's organization and he had no right to speak. However, he did not interrupt and listened quietly to all the information.
"How are you guys?" Li Yu said, and suddenly changed the topic.
This startled Cordelli, who was originally calm and composed, and he asked, "What happened?"
Li Yu stared at him without saying a word. Cordri felt a little guilty, but behaved normally.
He knew that Li Yu was asking about the Titan Temple, but he definitely couldn't tell the other party about this kind of thing.
What's more, now the mysterious extra-dimensional camp has surfaced.
Not only does it have many external enemies, but it also has difficult-to-deal-with internal conflicts, which has greatly reduced the fear of some forces towards it.
Cordrey gritted his teeth and looked at Li Yu, but he didn't show any fear.
"Nothing..." Li Yu did not ask any further questions and immediately closed the communication link.
According to his estimation, after framing the car crash, talking nonsense to his face, and throwing manure at the Ark of Savior, the axe would be used.
The Forerunners are now speechless and can only hold their noses and become subordinates of the Emperor of the Universe.
The alien-dimensional camp got something for nothing and forcibly attached itself to the forerunner.
From now on, those who are the forerunners belong to the alien dimension camp.
And the other-dimensional camp ... sorry, it's fake.
The more powerful the Forerunners are, the more wary others will be of the alien dimensional camp.
"Who is going to be unlucky again..." The hunter's voice rang in his ears: "Every time you laugh like this, you must be thinking about how to hurt someone."
Li Yu restrained his smile, glanced over, and said unhappily: "If you know too much, you will be silenced."
The hunter shrank his neck and said, "Peyton called you over. It seems that the bones you brought back a few days ago have yielded some results."
Li Yu instantly became alert and quickly headed to the research base.
The last time he devoured the dimensional world where the Titan's corpse was stored, his gene chain progress had been fully completed, which brought him a combat power level of more than tens of millions levels.
Theoretically speaking, in conventional combat form, he can already confront A4-level life forms head-on.
At the same time, the selection of additional gene chains and the fourth gene chain mounted on the [Code of Life] was also put on the agenda.
[Code of Life] It is easy to mount additional gene chains, and Guixing’s gene chain library can be released to him at any time.
However, the Titan skeleton he just obtained made him want to get involved with Feifei.
As his strength gradually grew, some of his means of increasing his combat power became less effective, and he urgently needed additional means of increasing his combat power.
The King Blood Titan is famous for its combat power.
However, the "curse" from the Titans is still a problem, which makes him hesitant.
He hadn't thought of using the Titan's gene chain as a regular replacement gene chain, although it was certainly very strong.
However, everything produced by the system has additional characteristics and is developed much faster than non-system-produced gene chains.
Moreover, the genetic samples of Devouring Star are still on the way to be obtained, which he thinks is the highlight.
But the concept of Galactus coincides with the celestial gene in him that came from Star-Lord's father, and there is some overlap.
Moreover, in the movie, Uncle Tun is... a bit lame, which may have a bad influence.
But even so, Li Yu only left him a mounting position for the [Code of Life] in the King Blood Titan gene chain.
When he arrived at the research base, Payton had been working day and night for a long time, and so did the researchers around him.
In particular, some of the top researchers recruited last time have given up on the Alien Queen, whom they regarded as a treasure.
The Titan skeleton is a precious item that has never appeared in the interstellar space. No one doesn't want to know the genetic structure of the Titan.
"What did you find..." Li Yu asked. Everyone present lowered their heads and no one seemed to pay attention to him. But after a moment, Peyton spoke:
"This skeleton is very special. According to the time spectrum detection, the time of death seems to be not long ago."
"This should be the effect of the time-solidifying crystal. Time will be frozen inside that thing, and it can only be born in a place where time is distorted."
Li Yu nodded. He had seen the power of that kind of crystal. It could even hold flesh that had been turned into powder in place.
Payton then continued, "So, based on this skeleton, we can analyze the genetic structure of the King Blood Titan, but the sample is insufficient, so it is basically impossible to modulate the gene chain."
"Insufficient samples..." Li Yu frowned, feeling a little regretful.
Although the modulated product might not be usable, he was still disappointed that it couldn't be used at all.
"This is due to the effectiveness of the time-solidifying crystals. Otherwise, even if the skeleton could be preserved, it would not have much activity," Payton added.
Time-solid crystal...freezing time...Li Yu shook his head, but a flash of lightning suddenly flashed through his mind.
He remembered an item he had obtained before - the [Clock of Time], which could adjust the progress of time.
Because of the time-fixing crystals, the time of the skeleton is fixed at the moment of death.
If time goes back, can this skeleton give rise to flesh and blood?
Moreover, if there is only half a skeleton, strictly speaking, it is not a living Titan and will not be entangled by the wave of death.
It seems... feasible...
Li Yu's eyes lit up slightly, and he did what he said. He immediately took out the [Clock of Time], and then used the observation room where the skeleton was placed as the covered area and activated the [Clock of Time].
The coverage of [Clock of Time] is not large, and some skeletons cannot be included, but it is enough.
Li Yu's mind was slightly moved.
The next moment, the area covered by the [Clock of Time] began to distort slightly, with overlapping shadows and constant shaking.
"Eh..." A researcher who was looking down noticed something was wrong. He walked over, leaned on the glass of the observation room, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "What did you do?"
"Just wait and see..." Li Yu shook his head and continued to move time forward. The space distorted more violently and everyone was attracted to watch this scene.
Then, something that stunned them happened. On those eerie white bones, "flesh buds" began to emerge and began to "grow" in a special way.
"This... this is the 'reverse growth' phenomenon caused by the reversal of time!" An old man couldn't help but exclaimed, wishing he could get into the observation room.
The others also stared at the scene in front of them intently.
Peyton also came over and frowned slightly, "You want to restore his body by turning back time?"
"The universe will smooth out this temporal anomaly, and flesh and blood will be difficult to study."
Although the universe has no life, it can repair itself. This time anomaly is a cancer and will be corrected by the universe.
This kind of flesh and blood, born in the reverse flow of time, may still exist in special areas, but once it leaves, it will be corrected by the universe.
In the observation room, most of the skeleton was covered with muscles, just like a human 's lower body, but magnified many times.
As he expected, nothing unusual happened.
Obviously, a dead Titan would not be hit by the wave.
Li Yu had stopped moving, and then operated the instrument to cut a bloody piece of meat from the lower body. After leaving the coverage area of the [Clock of Time], it still existed.
This made Peyton exclaim, "Why isn't it affected by the rules of the universe?"
Li Yu chuckled and said without explaining, "Are these genetic samples enough?"
Payton thought for a moment and nodded: "This is definitely enough."
…
At the same time, from the Xisank civilization, a group of scavengers disguised as a scientific expedition team landed on a desolate planet.
Within the territory of the Xishank civilization, there are giant cosmic volcanic communities and interstellar glaciers. Both of these cosmic Jedi are very ancient.
Over the long years, there have been many powerful life forms that have entered to explore, and some of them were lucky enough to get good things.
Most of it is frozen into ice or turned into charcoal.
Occasionally, it will be ejected and scattered throughout the Xishank galaxy.
So this galaxy is full of scavengers who are trying their luck, hoping to dig out something good and sell it on the black market to make a lot of money.
Yellow acid rain swept across the earth without stopping, in a misty acid rain fog.
A group of guys wearing bulky protective suits are setting up various mechanical instruments to detect the situation of the planet.
This kind of extreme environment planet within the Xishank civilization is generally affected by cosmic volcanic eruptions.
This planet has been visited by others countless times, and these people are just here to try their luck.
However, a moment later, a sharp-nosed monkey with a hunchbacked tree monkey operated on the screen for a while, and suddenly shouted in surprise:
"Haha, I detected geomagnetic interference ripples. Something is constantly interfering with the planet's magnetic field."
"I knew that during the cosmic volcanic eruption period, I would find good things on these planets."
"Those idiots didn't think about the fact that since the eruption of the cosmic volcano had come here before, there would definitely be a second time."
"It seems to be in the southeast direction. I will use sonar ripples to detect it to see what it is."
The other team members looked at each other in bewilderment at this almost crazy guy.
After waiting for a while, he suddenly shouted, "Got it!"
The sonar waves drew a huge building on the screen, which looked strange overall, like a palace.
Everyone came over and looked at it for a long time but couldn't figure out what it was.
"Alas, the instrument is too outdated. There is no simulation program, so it can only detect roughly... When we get something good this time, we must replace it!" This guy was full of confidence and ordered:
"Hurry up and get in the car and head towards the target location. Don't let others get there first."
"Boss..." A famous team member summoned up his courage at noon and whispered, "Why do I feel like this is not an eruption from a volcano in the universe?"
The other team members had the same idea. Damn, whose cosmic volcano could erupt into a palace?
"Huh?" The old monkey man turned his head suddenly, holding a metal staff, and smashed it hard: "You are not a cosmic volcano, how do you know that you won't erupt something like this?"
"Hurry up, if you're late, there won't be any dinner for you tonight!"
As soon as these words were spoken, many team members did not dare to delay and hurriedly packed up their things and got on the dilapidated amphibious transport vehicle.
