Chapter 580: The Real Star Devourer
The headquarters of the Ark of Savior was located somewhere unknown. The navigator was standing on a high platform, with flickering lights on the edge of his white robe.
There were blazing flames on the surrounding stone pillars, which looked simple and solemn.
However, if you look closely, you can find that those burning flames are just holographic projections.
Someone is reporting below——
"...Two members of the scavenger team went out to have fun and did not follow the old tree monkey into the black market. After the tragedy, they hurriedly left the Leiston galaxy..."
"…But we still found them. Based on the information they provided, we went to that galaxy. The cage they mentioned had disappeared, and there were obvious signs of mining at the scene."
He took out his smart terminal and projected the situation on the scene. The ground was littered with scattered boulders and huge gullies.
The trees around had fallen down, and there were traces of tracks, which looked like traces left by large excavation equipment.
"It should be that the black network organization took the lead."
"Hmm..." The Lord of the Ark nodded. He was not surprised by this, but was a little worried: "Every time the Titan Temple appears, abnormal situations will occur."
The Titan Temple exists in the information state and can only be materialized through special methods.
However, the Titan Temple is not just a palace, it also contains many additional objects.
The main body of the Titan Temple will not materialize easily, but with the exploration and research of various forces, there will always be something or an item that resonates with the Titan Temple.
This causes some objects to materialize prematurely. Things that can exist in the Titan Temple are not simple items and can easily cause large-scale disasters.
He turned around and continued, "The war dance that destroyed several star systems, the flesh and blood aberration that took thirty years to capture... Although they are all troublesome, there are ways to deal with them..."
"But the Life Titan is a famous research maniac. The things that came out of their Titan Temple may be difficult to deal with..."
The Ark of Savior is the main researcher of the Life Titan Legacy, so he naturally understands how scary this group of research maniacs are.
Moreover, the thing was still sealed in a cage, but due to an unexpected situation, the cage's sealing device failed, allowing the group of scavengers to take advantage of the loophole.
"We have found a way to collect samples and are currently conducting research. We should have results soon," the subordinate whispered.
He remained noncommittal and didn't hold out much hope.
At this moment, a remote projection of one of his men appeared beside the two of them and said hurriedly, "Sir Navigator, the life core suddenly showed an abnormal reaction!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the navigator disappeared in an instant, and when he reappeared, he was already in a closed room.
Countless scientific researchers in lab coats gathered around the observation room, where a green fluorescent ball was constantly vibrating.
Alarms continued to sound as numerous researchers worked in front of various instruments with sweat on their foreheads.
The navigator turned to look at the person in charge next to him and asked in a deep voice, "What happened?"
"The life core suddenly began to vibrate irregularly, the space waves fluctuated, and it was even about to break through the restrictions of the blockade device..." The person in charge lowered his head, extremely nervous.
"Suddenly vibrated?" The navigator paused, "Without you touching it?"
"Y-yes, we were just doing our research as usual and this all happened suddenly."
"There must be something wrong..." The navigator said firmly, "The Life Core is a special product of the Life Titan race, and it is also the core of the Ark system."
"It was stimulated. It must have passively sensed something."
"Maybe it's the Titan Temple..."
"Sir..." A researcher suddenly spoke, and all eyes in the room focused on him.
This made him a little nervous, and his body couldn't help but tremble.
However, this is a rare opportunity to show up, and perhaps you can use it to be taken seriously.
"What's wrong?" the navigator asked with a frown.
"Sir, I have a guess..." He gritted his teeth and said, "In fact, the environment of the laboratory has not remained unchanged. I was called over to help by the newly established Black Mist Laboratory and I just came back."
"It was when I came back that this change occurred in the core of life."
"Oh?" The navigator's expression changed slightly.
The Black Fog Laboratory is a new laboratory recently established by the Ark of Savior, which is dedicated to studying the special black fog.
Is it because of the black fog?
"Go and get a sample..." the navigator ordered.
"yes……"
Someone nodded and left in a hurry, and soon came back with a tube of black mist.
Sure enough, when the tube of black mist approached the core of life, the vibration began to become more violent, and the space in the observation room became distorted.
"Increase the space blockade position and don't let it distort the space!" The researcher next to him was busy and sweating.
The navigator ignored the movements nearby, holding the mist tube, slowly approached the core of life and observed carefully.
After a moment, his expression slightly condensed, and he said: "The core of life is afraid."
"Fear?"
The researchers nearby looked at each other in fear. Isn't the life core the crystallization of life science and technology?
It's just a product of technology, not a living being, so why would you be afraid of it?
However, this guess was made by their boss, and no one dared to refute it.
The navigator threw the glass tube in his hand to the researcher and ordered: "Mobilize personnel from other laboratories. The most important task now is to study the existence form of the black fog!"
"And what on earth is that thing!"
"Yes!" Everyone nodded and went about their business.
The navigator looked at the core of life that was gradually calming down, but his heart was churning.
As the technological crystallization of the Life Titan race, the Life Core is naturally not a simple mechanical body, and they have not yet figured out what exactly it is.
But he was sure that the reaction of the life core just now was definitely fear.
What on earth could cause fear to the core of life?
Although the Life Titan is a research maniac, the Life Core is the highest achievement of their life science and technology. If it were just an ordinary thing, it would never cause this kind of reaction in the Life Core.
As he was thinking, the smart terminal rang again. He glanced at it and saw a message from Cordelli.
Li Yu is contacting me.
…
"We really don't know what happened in the Leiston galaxy?" Cordelli smiled bitterly, looking at Li Yu in the projection, and continued:
"Zijing did contact us and wanted us to help get rid of that thing, but we are still in the stage of negotiating the price..."
"Really..." Li Yu did not comment. He originally wanted to test the waters of the Ark of Savior to see if there had been any progress with the Titan Temple.
As a result, the other party knew nothing about anything.
Obviously unwilling to reveal any information about the Titan Temple.
"I thought we had established a good relationship after the previous collaborations." Li Yu said in an inexplicable tone.
"We will always be your friends!" Cordrey's expression turned stern, and he said in a decisive tone.
"That would be the best..." Li Yu didn't respond and immediately hung up the phone.
After the screen went black, Cordelli looked to the side and said tentatively:
"Navigator, are we really not going to reveal any information? The other party should have found out a lot. Revealing some information may help consolidate our relationship."
"That little bit of information won't satisfy his appetite." The navigator shook his head. "Besides, he is already busy with his own affairs. The Forerunners are checking his information. We have done our best by not selling his information."
"Their internal struggle has not been resolved yet. Whether he can intervene in the Titan Temple matter is still a question."
Kodry thought for a moment and said, "Do you really think that the alien camp and the forerunners are two different factions?"
"What else?" The navigator looked at Cordelli. "If not, what good would it be for the other-dimensional camp to let the outside world think so?"
"They will also share half of what the pioneers have done, so why bother with this kind of trouble."
Cordrey thought for a moment and nodded, that was indeed the truth.
However, after the Lord of the Ark left, his eyes flickered, and he opened the smart terminal again, edited a message, and sent it out.
…
In Yuxu Palace, Li Yu knocked on the metal table. There were many small dents on the table. At first, they were very deep and almost pierced through the metal table.
But the ones behind are getting shallower and shallower, which means his control over himself is constantly improving.
"This Codrey is quite interesting..." Li Yu looked at the information on the screen.
"The forerunners are collecting information about you, please be careful."
I didn't say it clearly when I was communicating with him just now, but after I hung up the call, he sent another message.
He was not surprised by the actions of the Forerunners. It was impossible for such a large organization to become a branch faction for no reason without any reaction.
But Li Yu was not too afraid. He had now completed his evolution and became an A4 level life form, and his strength had greatly increased.
The outside world's impression of him is that he is comparable to an A4 life form.
This information gap will cause some people to fall into a trap. No matter what situation he faces, he has room for mediation or even counterattack.
"Maybe he will pretend to be the master again. It's really inconvenient to keep the Ark of Savior hidden..." Li Yu pondered to himself.
However, it is rather troublesome to impersonate the master, and he cannot ask directly, so he can only ask indirectly, and the information he gets is limited.
Moreover, he knew too little about this incident. Unless he used information that even the Ark of Savior didn't know to scare the other party, maybe he could get something out of them.
Unfortunately, he knew too little now, and it was difficult for him to do this.
"Forget it. When my people arrive, they will go directly to the Lesteon galaxy. This matter must be related to the Titan Temple. I have to go there sooner or later anyway..."
He has already sent his men with the dimensional rift generator, and with Kansa's support, there shouldn't be any problems.
He left Yuxu Palace and came to the outside universe. What appeared before him was still a barren planet.
What the entire universe lacks the least is barren planets, and this planet is located on the edge of this desolate galaxy.
There are eight planets in this galaxy, and the star is at the end of its life.
The fading heat is no longer enough to give rise to any life in this galaxy.
Li Yu chose a relatively small planet with a diameter of only about 10,000 kilometers. It was quiet and desolate, with only a few craters.
Li Yu stood on this planet, took a deep breath, and began to try to awaken some power in his body.
The next moment, he opened his mouth slightly, and then a terrifying gravitational force emanated from his mouth. Some nearby meteorites were affected and began to rush here.
However, when they got close to Li Yu, they were affected by some unspeakable rules and began to shrink continuously, eventually becoming so tiny that they fell into his mouth.
The same was true of the planet in front of him. The stellar gravity field originally formed by the eight planets was destroyed. The terrifying gravity forcibly tore this desolate planet away from its original course.
It smashed the nearby meteorite belt along the way, and it itself began to break apart, starting from the earth's crust, but was forcibly pulled by gravity and finally fell into Li Yu's mouth.
This process lasted about three hours, which was not short but not long either.
This is exactly [eating], swallowing external substances to provide yourself with physical energy.
"This taste..." Li Yu closed his mouth and his throat moved. It was hard to describe.
It's like eating a brick. It's full of grit when you chew it, but the inside of the brick is full of exploding cheese and you can still taste some flavor.
That should be from the magma in the earth's core.
"It's such a barren and desolate planet, it's really hard to eat..." Li Yu shook his head, but there was nothing he could do.
The [Hunger] that comes with the Star-Swallowing Gene Chain is to quickly consume physical energy. In order to provide combat power, it is necessary to reserve some extra physical energy.
This desolate planet had not yet filled his stomach, so he turned his gaze directly to the dark red star in the center.
It has reached the end of its life and most of its surface has become dim.
The volume of the star is much larger than the planet just now, and Li Yu now feels a little... unable to eat it.
After thinking about it, he could only focus on the remaining barren planets.
Due to the loss of a planet in the star's gravitational field, the trajectories of other planets began to become disordered. Fortunately, there is no life in this galaxy, otherwise it would be a disaster.
After eating the remaining seven planets, he finally felt full in a physical sense.
But he always felt like he was chewing seven bricks, which made him very unhappy.
