Chapter 588: Rare Kindness
[Power of Thunder] is a small silver-white hammer, like Thor's hammer. After use, it was directly integrated into Li Yu's body.
Li Yu didn't feel any special changes, but after trying to attack the table in front of him three times.
Then a thick silver-white bolt of lightning came down from the sky with a rumbling roar, directly breaking through the top of the base and blowing the metal table in front of him into pieces.
It was because he realized something was wrong and restrained his strength in time, otherwise it would have been troublesome.
A shrill alarm sounded in the base, and a large number of Transformers guards rushed in, but were then driven away by Li Yu.
He made a rough estimate and found that the attack power of this destructive thunder was almost equivalent to his own full-strength attack.
It also comes with a thunder attack effect, which is a pretty good ability.
Just as I finished sorting out the harvest happily, a message came from the outside world, which was forwarded by Guixing.
The Skrull Mining Company invited him to its headquarters and was willing to clarify things in person.
If Li Yu can really convince them, they are willing to accept any form of punishment.
To be honest, this news is a bit funny. Are Li Yu qualified to persuade them?
Skuru Mining Company is a family business. Its founder and current chairman is named Skuru.
He created the current company step by step from scratch. He is a ruthless and decisive person.
However, along with this news, there was also some intelligence information.
Of the sixteen shareholders of the Skrull Mining Company, except for three generations of Skrull's descendants, all other shareholders sold their shares.
And the recycler is Skrull himself, which is totally unlike what a company that is about to go bankrupt would do.
It seems more like he is taking advantage of this opportunity to completely regain control, as if he is certain that he will not suffer a catastrophic disaster.
Guixing's intelligence organization has made a detailed analysis and there is a 64% chance that the other party is secretly planning some kind of resistance plan.
However, the Skrulls have already spread this news throughout the galaxy, and their external statements have been very tough.
They believed that this was a struggle between the Skrull Mining Company and the Benfield Civilization, and had nothing to do with Li Yu, an outsider.
The statement released by Li Yu to the public was completely meddling in other people's affairs.
What's more, the statement they released also hinted that Li Yu often disregarded the lives of innocent people and that he himself was not clean.
This news caused a sensation, and many interstellar citizens never expected that the Skrull Mining Company would have such a tough attitude.
It can even be said that this is a slap in Li Yu's face. Everyone is waiting to see what Li Yu will do next.
If Li Yu does not respond accordingly, he will inevitably be ridiculed.
But more people are curious about why the Skrull Mining Company is committing suicide.
After all, with Li Yu's current status and position, he can easily wipe out this company.
"Interesting..." Li Yu looked at the large amount of information in front of him. It was obviously unlikely that this mining company would suddenly challenge him if there was no support behind it.
The people he sent were already halfway there, and it was time to see what would happen next.
He asked his men to change the destination and choose the headquarters of the Skrull Mining Company.
He then found a younger brother and used his ability to peek into the future to see what would happen at the Skrull headquarters.
As his sight rose, a chaotic war scene appeared before him. Energy rays penetrated the atmosphere, the ground cracked, and thick mechanical tentacles stretched across the sky like mountains.
Outside the planet is a giant mechanical octopus, which is much larger than the planet where the Skrull headquarters is located. Countless war machines surround it, creating a picture of doomsday.
"Mechanical octopus?" Li Yu's eyes narrowed slightly. He didn't expect to see this mechanical life form.
He had heard of this mechanical life form before and even wanted to transform it into his own Transformer.
It's just that I'm not absolutely sure I can get it, so I just put it out of my mind.
"Why is Istra here? This is already a core civilization group and is completely out of his active range."
Li Yu's eyes flickered, and he immediately thought of a possibility -
Could it be that Istria is actually a pioneer?
Undoubtedly, the only ones who would attack him during this period of time are the pioneers.
This was originally his purpose, to go to the Benfell galaxy with great fanfare and attract the Forerunners to take action against him.
Then, with the preconceived notion, he made Khorne think that the other party's target was actually him.
In this way, what Li Yu said could form a perfect closed loop, enough to prevent Khorne from doubting him for a long time.
And according to the information revealed to him by the Ark of Savior, the Forerunners have been eyeing him covetously recently.
Instead of letting the other party do things secretly, it is better to create an opportunity for them directly, which is less dangerous.
But he didn't expect that the mechanical octopus, Istra, was actually the product of the forerunners.
This mechanical life form with extremely high evolutionary potential has attracted the attention of many forces.
Many people want to simulate the environment in which Istria was born and create a mechanical shark or something like that.
In the end, no force succeeded, and most people just regarded Istria as a special case.
Now it seems that Istka was born entirely because of the support provided by the forerunners behind the scenes.
"Tsk tsk..." Li Yu felt a little emotional. He was indeed a pioneer. He was just rich and powerful, so it would be fine if he didn't take any action.
The first move was to attack an advanced life form at the level of Istra.
According to interstellar data, Istra is definitely an A5-level mechanical life form.
"It seems that the Skrull Mining Company has been controlled by the Forerunners. This is a trap set for me..." He has roughly figured out what is going on.
This is similar to his previous guess. If no one supports it, this small company obviously cannot be so tough.
Then he changed his destination to the Benfield galaxy and continued to use the Force to peek into the future.
This time the battle still could not be avoided. It could even be said that it was even more terrible than the war at the Skrull Corporation headquarters.
Because this time, Li Yu saw an acquaintance.
"The boss of the Abyss Research Institute? This weirdo actually participated in this ambush..." Li Yu frowned slightly. This was unexpected news.
But if you think about it carefully, it makes sense. He has such a big grudge with the Abyss Research Institute, the Forerunners will not turn a blind eye and will definitely ask for help.
In other words, there are two A5-level advanced life forms this time.
If the first mover does not take action, it is fine. But once he takes action, it will be a decisive victory.
According to the information about his strength that he had previously revealed to the public, the attack by these two advanced life forms was absolutely foolproof, and it could even be said that it was a bit of a waste.
But now he has changed drastically from before.
After thinking for a while, he already had a rough idea in his mind...
…
The headquarters of the Skrull Mining Company is located on a desolate planet with cheap rent and a large enough area.
The earth is yellow and black, with heavy bases rooted in the surface and arranged neatly, forming a huge industrial city.
The surrounding area is full of open-pit mines with numerous large mechanical cranes hanging on them. The streets are interconnected and are all flattened gray stone and mud roads. They are not only strong but also can bear extremely high weight.
Teams of transport vehicles roared past, passing workers wearing heavy excavation armor on both sides of the street.
In the center of the industrial city is a metal platform , on which sits the company's core buildings. Directly above it floats an artificial light source, emitting a soft glow.
And in the space orbit, there are a number of interview ships of interstellar media hovering.
They did not approach the planet at close range to avoid being affected by an attack that could come at any time.
Skrull stood on the rooftop of the company building, looking at the media interview ship in space orbit.
"Father, everything has been arranged. The space blockade device has been prepared within the galaxy. As long as the enemy arrives, this will become his burial place!"
The middle-aged man came from the back. He no longer thought this was a disaster.
On the contrary, he thought this was a rare opportunity, otherwise they would not be able to get in touch with such a legendary force.
As long as they successfully overcome this crisis, the name of the Skrull Mining Company will surely resound throughout the galaxy.
Of course, this also faces certain risks, but for businessmen, they are not afraid of risks, they are only afraid that the final benefits are not proportional to the risks.
At the same time, the interview spacecraft in space orbit has been waiting for a long time.
Ever since the Skrull Mining Company issued its statement, these interstellar media have been like sharks smelling blood, rushing here one after another, waiting for Li Yu's possible arrival.
Whether Li Yu comes or not, it is a carnival for them.
There were even several sensational headlines that flashed through their minds.
…
But just as they were waiting, Li Yu had already appeared in the territory of Benfeil civilization.
Naturally, he would not pay any attention to the jumping grasshopper of Skrull Corporation.
The forerunners must have several plans and contingency plans. The headquarters of the Skrull Mining Company and the Benfield galaxy are not far apart.
No matter where he went, the end result was that he would have to deal with both Istra and the leader of the Abyss Research Institute at the same time.
And he also needed to create a sense of crisis for Khorne, so why bother wasting time going to the Skrull Corporation's headquarters?
However, since the Skrull Corporation has already taken sides and launched a serious provocation against him, he naturally will not turn a blind eye.
He had already sent the hunters over to deal with it, while he himself had to focus on the trouble at hand.
For Li Yu's arrival, Benfil Civilization held a grand welcome ceremony.
"Hello, sir... I am Luneng, the Minister of Defense of the Benfeil Civilization. On behalf of the Benfeil Civilization, I welcome you."
Standing in front of Li Yu was a tall and thin creature with light gray skin, a flat head and only one eye.
The Benfeil civilization is just an ordinary civilization that covers less than fifty galaxies. In front of Li Yu, it did not dare to be arrogant and was very respectful.
"Have they contacted you?" Li Yu stared at the Minister of Defense and suddenly asked.
"What...what?" Luneng was startled and stuttered, unable to speak. After a moment, he realized: "Who contacted us?"
He looked confused on the surface, but his heart was filled with anxiety and uneasiness.
Li Yu looked at him meaningfully, and based on the other party's emotional expression, he confirmed his guess.
The Benfield civilization may have been controlled by the Forerunners, or at least forced to cooperate.
"Take me to the galaxy infected by the virus to prevent the scope from expanding further." Li Yu did not continue to ask, but said instead.
Luneng's mind was in a mess and he nodded reluctantly. He didn't know what Li Yu meant by that casual question just now.
Have you noticed something is wrong?
Or just simple suspicion?
He felt secretly bitter in his heart and really didn't want to get involved in the confrontation between the big shots.
But these ordinary civilizations don't have much room for resistance.
After the virus leaked, the Benphil civilization immediately adopted an isolation policy and has temporarily contained the virus within sixteen galaxies.
But this has already covered half of their territory, and the dissatisfaction among the citizens within the civilization is very high. If the military management policy had not been temporarily adopted, I am afraid that the entire Benfield civilization would have been in complete chaos by now.
Li Yu boarded the fleet of the Benfil civilization, and he did not bring his own men with him.
Because the upcoming battle obviously would not be something his men could help with.
When we arrived at the galaxy covered by the virus, all we could see was the diffuse black fog, and there were fifteen such galaxies.
Outside the outer blockade line, there are also many interstellar media waiting here.
They had already noticed Li Yu's arrival, started shooting remotely frantically, and began writing press releases.
No one knew where Li Yu would go first, so every interstellar media sent people to wait at the Skrull Corporation headquarters and the Benfield galaxy.
"Alas... these citizens are so innocent..." Li Yu shook his head with a little emotion. Among the sixteen galaxies, the number of casualties might have reached tens of billions.
When it doesn't involve his own interests, he never minds showing his kindness.
Just as Li Yu was savoring his rare kindness, Little Noisy suddenly issued a warning:
"Master, the coefficient of this interstellar space has suddenly locked, please be careful."
He is possessed by the [Symbiotic Suit], which allows him to keenly detect changes in the environment.
Luneng beside him slumped to the ground with a thud, his eyes blank, and he kept muttering: "We don't want this either, we don't want this either..."
"But if this doesn't happen, the Benfield civilization will disappear..."
“I’m sorry…I’m sorry…”
"Space blockade, the first point of ambush..." Li Yu didn't look at him, but shook his head.
Then he tore apart the spaceship under his feet and entered the starry sky. The violent airflow rolled back and pulled everyone on the spaceship into the starry sky.
The guards quickly found the unconscious Luneng and put external armor on him to prevent him from dying from lack of oxygen.
Then a spiritual wave swept across the starry sky——
"Yuan Shou, stop hiding, I see you!"
