Chapter 620: Stepping into the Trap and the Fire Plan
The cooperation has been confirmed, and the next step is some details. Li Yu asked for the specific information of the Lord of the Ark.
The contemporary navigator is an A5-level genetically evolved being.
The combat capability level is not too high, around 300 million overall, but because of its genetic system - focusing on recovery and endurance, this number will be lower.
But the Ark of Savior is an indestructible cockroach, and the navigator's evolutionary system has further extended it, making its vitality extremely tenacious.
And there is one most difficult point in killing him, which is the rebirth of the Ark system.
All high-level members of the Ark of Salvation have been backed up and can be reborn after consuming enough resources.
Not to mention his boss, others may have resource limitations and find it difficult to regenerate infinitely, but he certainly can.
Li Yuke didn't have time to play with him slowly, so he emphasized this matter: " Let me tell you in advance that I will only kill him once. After I am reborn through the Ark system, I will not care about him again."
"If you deliberately tricked him into taking revenge on me, don't blame me for playing the video directly."
For such an important collaboration, he would definitely record the video in advance.
The corners of Cordelli's mouth twitched slightly, and he felt a little speechless, but Li Yu's reaction was also within his expectations, and he immediately said: "That's for sure, you only need to be responsible for killing him, and I will handle the Ark system."
Li Yu nodded in satisfaction and said jokingly, "What happened to make a loyal fighter like you rebel?"
"This is not rebellion..." Cordelli shook his head, a complex emotion on his face, and explained: "I did not betray the Ark, it's just that the navigator's choice went astray."
"I have a feeling that his choice this time will lead the Ark of Salvation to eternal damnation."
"So you are going to kill him and lead the Ark yourself?" Li Yu said with a hint of smile, feeling that Cordrey's explanation was too pale.
Since you have chosen this path, why bother making excuses for yourself?
“You don’t understand.” Cordrey shook his head, looking as if he had shouldered some immense responsibility.
"It has nothing to do with me..." Li Yu shook his head and was too lazy to ask: "The information you gave me is indeed very valuable, otherwise I would not have agreed to you. Let me know when you are ready to take action."
"Okay..." Cordelli nodded, his eyes somewhat deep: "It shouldn't take too long."
Li Yu continued to study the video, muttering, "Who is this guy? Is he related to your rebellion?"
The corner of Cordri's eye twitched. "It has nothing to do with you." After saying these four words, he closed the communication link.
Li Yu casually asked Xiao Chaonao to extract the stranger's appearance features, throw them into the database, and let it match itself.
He stretched himself, the joints in various parts of his body crackling, and he stood up and walked to the window. Looking out, he saw high-rise metal buildings and a large number of staff members coming and going in a hurry.
In the sky, various aircraft whizzed by. The warships manufactured by the [World Destroyer] were being strengthened through the secondary production line and were piled up in the warehouse, waiting for his enlightenment.
"The Star Empire intends to lure me away. No, they intend to move the alien camp away. They intend to use the hatred between us to pin us down in the Bardos civilization, killing two birds with one stone."
He looked down and Lloyd's handsome face appeared in front of him. "What a pity! You don't know that the Abyss Research Institute was destroyed by me a long time ago. From the beginning, the information you gave was wrong."
The biggest problem with this matter is that the Star Empire does not know that the Abyss Research Institute has been destroyed, and attempts to use the dimensional world to arouse Li Yu's greed.
As for the news about Cordri, it essentially just cleared up Li Yu's doubts.
"But if I don't go, you will probably be very nervous." Li Yu thought to himself.
He still decided to follow the plan of the Star Empire.
On the surface, he seemed to have basically understood the whole story, but the development of the matter remained unchanged.
But in fact, the initiative of the whole matter has been completely reversed, and whether to go or not is just a matter of his decision.
If he went, the Xingyao Empire would think that their plan had succeeded and would relax their vigilance against Li Yu.
Li Yu could have made a surprise counterattack at the last moment and given them a surprise.
If he doesn't go, the Star Empire will definitely focus a lot of energy on monitoring him and the mysterious alien-dimensional camp.
They will definitely take corresponding preventive measures. If he wants to snatch it head-on, the difficulty will probably increase almost exponentially.
Taking all factors into consideration, he still has to follow the plan of the Starry Empire. Only if the Starry Empire relaxes its vigilance will he be able to snatch the food from the tiger's mouth.
Moreover, although the information about the Abyss Research Institute provided by the Star Empire was false.
But if you want to create a conflict between Li Yu and the Forerunner in order to restrain both sides, there must be a conflict point to do so.
This also means that the Titan artifact revealed by Lloyd might really exist.
Otherwise, if there was nothing in the territory of the Bados civilization, the forerunners would definitely not be willing to confront Li Yu directly for no reason.
They should be more inclined to temporarily shrink their forces and avoid the sharp edge unless there is some reason they have to take action.
"That's interesting..." Li Yu pondered. So far, he has never really come into contact with the Titan artifact.
Li Yu wanted to touch the Titan artifact hidden deep in the central galaxy.
Unfortunately, that is the lifeblood of those old guys like Bolvar. If they touch it, they will really fight him to the death.
"In that case, it's time to meet Lloyd. Even though I'm walking into your trap, I still have to get something out of it."
Li Yu muttered to himself, and called Sinai to ask someone to notify Lloyd.
…
In a secret meeting room of a certain base, it seems that no one has been here for a long time, and only the minimum energy supply is maintained to maintain operation.
The lights in the room were dim, and a layer of dust had settled on the metal round table in the middle.
However, a different change occurred today. A crack suddenly opened up in the four corners of the room.
Four bright blue lights intertwined, constructing a projection scene around the round table in the center.
Remote projections came online one after another, with various species, including interstellar humans.
There are leopard men with yellowish skin and skinny bodies.
There is a strange race whose entire body is covered with blue-purple shells.
Three figures were distributed in a triangle, each sitting in their seats. No one spoke at first, but just quietly observed the other two.
"Hello, both of you..." The only interstellar human on the scene folded his hands and said in a serious tone, "There's no need to say too much. We all have the same identity. The current situation is very clear. The fire will be activated."
"Are you sure?" the species covered with purple shell said in a deep voice.
"We have lost contact with the headquarters for more than a month. Normally, there will be a Spark communication every ten days." The interstellar human said:
"But now it's far past that time, and no one has responded to the second anti-accidental touch program. Just a day ago, more than 27 information terminals transmitted various data to my encrypted terminal."
"After decryption, it has been confirmed that this is a part of the most core dimensional technology. I'm sure you have already received it."
"Yes." The yellow-skinned leopard nodded, "I also obtained sixteen Black Hole Bank accounts, which contain hundreds of billions of star coins."
"The situation has been basically confirmed. The headquarters has been destroyed." The interstellar human concluded.
As soon as these words came out, the scene fell into silence. After a long while, the purple-shelled creature slowly spoke: "I never thought that the Spark Project would be launched in my generation."
"Do you know who did it?" asked the Leopard Man.
"We haven't received any news yet. We have only contacted the leader unilaterally to ensure everything goes well." The interstellar human shook his head: "But at the same time, we know nothing about the headquarters."
"There are many possible people, the alien dimension camp, the Forerunners, the Star Empire..." The Leopard Man listed them all.
"But the location of the headquarters is top secret. If we don't know it, how can others find it out?" asked the Void Hunter puzzled.
"There is no need for us to pursue this issue. What we need to do now is to rebuild the abyss."
"The Fire Plan has detailed action steps. This is the first time we meet and the last time we meet."
"We will use our own methods to rebuild the abyss. In the process, some of us may fail or betray..."
"Until I gain the true power of revenge, the name Abyss will be hidden."
The other two remained silent. A grand and long-lasting organization would inevitably have members who were willing to die for it.
At least the three of them now have a flame burning in their hearts, and are willing to spend their entire lives rebuilding the abyss.
"You two should not check our identities in reality. The projection has been camouflaged and no clues can be found." The interstellar human warned.
"You don't have to tell us, we will understand." The Leopard Man frowned. From the very beginning, this interstellar human had been speaking to them in a condescending manner.
This made him very unhappy.
"This is the best, for the abyss!" The interstellar human raised his hand without getting angry.
The three projections gradually went out, and the place returned to its former silence.
However, not long after, three more projections appeared, belonging to three completely different races.
One of the guys who looked like a dwarf spoke first: "Hello, both of you. There is no need to say more. We all have the same identity. The current situation is very clear. The fire will be activated."
“…”
There was another series of conversations and explanations, and in the end everything was reduced to four words:
"For the Abyss!"
Although his appearance has changed, the tone and posture of his voice are very similar to those of the previous interstellar human.
…
On the other side, Lloyd was also reporting to the top management.
"...Yes, he has taken the bait and just left me. He obviously values the bait we put out very much."
"But he asked us to send corresponding support, and I promised him."
The blurry projections around him were talking in low voices, but the voices were blurred, so it was difficult for him to make out.
"No problem, he asked for support, which was within our expectations. Your Highness Lloyd, you did a great job." Someone praised.
"I don't dare to take credit for it. You guys have already set up the plan. I'm just a messenger." Lloyd whispered.
"Once they step into that quagmire, we won't have to pay too much attention to them. They probably won't be able to get out of it for a long time."
"That's right. The next focus is the Titan Temple. The Ark of Salvation is a hidden danger."
"They should be able to quickly figure out that competing with us is not a wise choice. If they spread this news, it will cause us a lot of trouble."
Lloyd's expression changed slightly, and he said, "We may be able to cooperate with them and provide some reasonable resources. This should be a good choice for them."
"This is indeed a method, but I'm afraid the other party can't recognize the reality." Someone shook his head and did not comment.
"Lloyd..." The Emperor's voice interrupted again and ordered: "Don't come back for the time being. Follow Li Yu to the Bardos civilization and keep an eye on his every move."
"Me?" Lloyd was a little surprised. Although he had agreed to Li Yu's request for support before, that required drawing troops from the empire.
He never thought about following Li Yu.
"He has taken the bait. Once we head to the Bardos civilization, the forerunners will naturally react. If I follow them, would it be a bit..." Lloyd resisted subconsciously.
He wanted to go back and intervene in the battle for the Titan Temple. Judging from the current situation, the battle for the Titan Temple was purely for gaining credit.
Following Li Yu to the Bados civilization would be a waste of time.
"Don't take it lightly. The Forerunners are also our biggest enemies. If there is no important person following them, he will be suspicious." The Emperor's tone was unquestionable.
Even though Lloyd was unwilling, he could only lower his head and say, "Yes!"
The projections around him gradually disappeared, but his eyes wandered as he thought of some recent rumors.
Lloyd has been the first heir for many years. Under normal circumstances, he would be the next emperor.
But recently, for some reason, there were sudden rumors that the emperor was somewhat dissatisfied with him and intended to replace the first heir.
At first he scoffed at these rumors, but today's incident made him feel a little restless.
In his opinion, the battle for the Titan Temple was purely about gaining credit. No matter who went up, the final result would be a great victory.
This will be a significant achievement and should add to his prestige.
But now the Emperor wants him to waste time and follow Li Yu to Bardos. It can be said that the battle for the Titan Temple has nothing to do with him at all.
He was really upset that he lost such a great achievement for no reason.
After thinking for a long time, Lloyd took a deep breath and could only slowly suppress the restlessness . Several figures that posed a threat to him emerged in his mind, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
