Chapter 621: A "Gift" from Odin
" The empire actually sent your Highness to accompany them. This is too much importance." Li Yu looked surprised, staring at Lloyd who came to inform him.
Lloyd smiled warmly, "As it should be. This is our first time working together, and the Forerunners should not be underestimated. I will serve as the commander-in-chief on the Empire's side."
"Another fleet has secretly set out for the border of the Bardos civilization."
He put on a complete show, but Li Yu didn't expect that the Star Empire would actually send Lloyd to follow him.
If he hadn't known the truth in advance, he would probably have marveled at the generosity of the Star Empire.
Although he was not very fond of Lloyd, as the first heir to the Star Empire, his status was extremely noble.
The heads and rulers of some large civilizations had to bow down before him.
Unexpectedly, in order to completely fool him, the Star Empire sent Lloyd.
"However, our intelligence system is difficult to operate in Bardos, and the information we get is limited. What I told you before is all the information we have."
Lloyd began to take precautions to prevent Li Yu from discovering that something was not right halfway through. He could then use this excuse to cover it up.
"It's okay. If you investigate everything thoroughly, I will doubt the truth of the matter. After all, the Abyss Research Institute is a large armed organization, and it is not that easy to investigate."
Li Yu smiled, but Lloyd's heart skipped a beat. He changed the subject and said, "Have you found a good entry point? If you blindly go to the Bardos civilization, it will be difficult to make any progress."
"I've found it." Li Yu smiled and said, "Morton civilization."
"They have been oppressed by the Bardos civilization for a long time. Some time ago, the ambassador of the Morton civilization came to seek support."
"Queen Klein couldn't bear to see the Morton civilization, which is also a founding civilization of the Civilization Alliance, fall into such a state, so she asked me to go and support it."
"Is this entry point reasonable?"
Lloyd frowned slightly, tapping the armrest with his fingers. After a moment, he said, "Wouldn't it be too conspicuous to go in openly? My suggestion is to go in secretly and investigate the specific situation first."
"If you're too conspicuous, it might arouse the other party's vigilance."
"Haha..." Li Yu smiled, thinking that the process was too slow.
Most of the information that the Star Empire gave him was about the Abyss Research Institute, which was completely useless.
But he knew that the people who might appear in the territory of the Bados civilization might be pioneers. If he really wanted to sneak in and investigate slowly, it was unknown how long it would take.
"Too slow. We are in the open and they are in the dark. Even if we sneak in secretly, we can't hide it for long." Li Yu restrained his smile and said coldly: "What I want is to alert the enemy. Panic will lead to mistakes!"
Lloyd was speechless. Do you think the Abyss Research Institute is stupid? They were scared out of their wits by you.
No, Lloyd's expression changed slightly. There was no Abyss Research Institute in that place, only the Forerunners.
Moreover, it is an extremely important base of theirs. If they were frightened so suddenly by Li Yu, they might really get scared to death.
However, their goal is also to cause conflict between the alien dimensional camp and the forerunners. Although the process is somewhat direct, the result is always similar.
In this way, the delay time may be shortened a little, and we can only act according to circumstances at that time.
He actually hit a good entry point.
Various thoughts flashed through Lloyd's mind, but he finally smiled and said:
"Your Excellency Long Zun's actions are indeed unexpected. This operation is in your hands. Since you have already determined the action plan, I have no objection."
"Haha, that's good." Li Yu smiled brightly and seemed very happy.
…
At this moment, bursts of wailing were coming from the rest room of the Morton civilization ambassador.
"President Gosling, I am really sorry and have failed to live up to your expectations!" Ambassador Morton cried and his tears spurted out like columns of water.
"I haven't even met Her Majesty Queen Klein. They... they don't seem to be willing to support us..."
"I am so ashamed of Morton!"
Gosling's cheeks twitched. He stared at the wailing ambassador and sighed, "Ambassador Kili, you can't be blamed for this. It's all our own fault that we ended up like this."
"It will also make you lose face outside and no one will like you."
"Mr. President!" When Kiley heard this, he cried even louder and almost fainted.
Ding Dong!
There was a knock on the door. Keely's expression suddenly darkened and his voice became deeper. He asked, "Who is it? What's the matter?"
When Gosling saw this scene, he felt inexplicably dissatisfied.
"Ambassador Kili, His Excellency Long Zun invites you." The voice coming from outside the door made Kili pause slightly.
"Dragon Lord?" Gosling also heard it, and couldn't help but look a little excited: "Is Dragon Lord going to support us?"
"Mr. President, this matter is rather complicated. Please don't have too high expectations for now." Kiley sighed and thought of Lloyd and Li Yu.
"But don't worry, I will do my best to ask for support from His Excellency Long Zun."
He straightened his clothes, turned off the communication, took a deep breath, and walked out of the room.
Two hours later, Ambassador Kiley came back quickly. He looked excited, his face flushed, and his fists clenched.
After locking the room, he couldn't wait to call Gosling's communication link. As soon as the call was connected, he excitedly said, "Mr. President, this is great news."
"Just now, His Excellency Long Zun has promised to go to the Bados Civilization in person and ask them to give up their secret actions."
"Lord Long Zun even hinted that if they disagree, he wouldn't mind using some strong measures."
Gosling blinked, and even didn't react for a moment. After a moment, he suddenly stood up and couldn't help asking, "Really?!"
"Really, His Excellency Long Zun has confirmed it. He has sent his Transfiguration Legion to return with me. Once I arrive, he can use dimensional travel to come directly." Kili said excitedly.
"What's going on?" Gosling paced back and forth, his expression gradually changing from excitement to confusion: "Sir Long Zun, are you really so kind?"
Good things came too suddenly, which made him a little uncomfortable. When he thought about it carefully, he always felt that something was wrong.
Although he had never had close contact with Li Yu, he was still a civilized leader after all. For these bigwigs, not doing anything that would put them at a disadvantage was their code of conduct most of the time.
Kili restrained his expression after hearing this, and after hesitating for a moment, he said, "I have communicated with His Excellency Long Zun once, and he seemed to be quite interested in the Thunder Battle Armor."
"Thunder Armor?" Gosling was a little surprised, but he was relieved: "As long as there is a clear goal, it's fine."
"You're not angry?" Kiley carefully looked at Gosling's expression.
"The Thunder Armor is no longer in our hands. Even if the Dragon Lord wants to take it, it has nothing to do with us." Goslin shook his head and sighed.
"On the contrary, it's great that Long Zun is willing to help us deal with our biggest problem for the sake of this thing."
Kili nodded. He had the same idea. The Thunder Armor was no longer theirs. It would be great if they could still make use of it.
"You did a great job, Kili, and civilization should be grateful to you," Gosling said solemnly.
Hearing this, Kili tightened his lips, his eyes turned red, and he couldn't help but wail, "Mr. President, why did you take over such a mess? You shouldn't be like this!"
Gosling just smiled bitterly and shook his head without saying anything.
It would take more than half a month to return to Morton civilization from Guixing, even with the help of the star gate.
Li Yu did not intend to waste time on the road, but instead found a few of Bolvar's tools and started fighting again.
Nicas really couldn't stand it anymore. The memorial ceremony was over and he didn't want to stay with this madman for even a minute.
"I heard that there are constant frictions between your race and the Bados, and there are many casualties every year." Li Yu pulled Nicas and stopped him from leaving.
"What do you mean?" Nicas's expression changed slightly. After this period of beating, the few of them had established a fairly good friendship.
The originally tense relationship was eased. In the words of Nicas, a Celestial Dragon, that is -
"We are all people standing at the top of the galaxy. As long as it is not a life-and-death feud, there is no grudge that cannot be resolved."
"Fight with me for a few days, and I will help you bully the Bados civilization." Li Yu was not prepared to let go of this strong laborer he found for free. Bados would inevitably fight, and it would be a good idea to have more helpers.
"You'll have to waste time on the road anyway, so why don't we just fight, fight, fight every day together? It'll be so much easier. Then we can use my dimensional crack to get there in one step."
Nicas thought about it and decided that it was not impossible. The number of their Soul Devourers was relatively small compared to other interstellar races.
They mainly feed on minerals, which are limited resources. Their active area is not far from the Bados civilization.
There had been many frictions in the competition for interstellar resources, and at the beginning the Bados civilization did not dare to confront them head-on.
But for some reason, the power of civilization expanded rapidly in recent years, and they were defeated and fled several times.
Nicas had been unhappy for a long time, but his own strength was not enough to shake Bardos, so he could only swallow his anger.
It would be great if Li Yu, this pervert, was willing to stand up for them.
Poor Nicas, he didn't know that he had become a thug in Li Yu's eyes.
He naively thought that as long as he practiced with Li Yu for a while, he would be able to get Li Yu's help.
Bolvar and his men were about to flee, but they heard Li Yu say, "Bovar, stop them, or I will let Klein kill all of your royal family members."
"When the time comes, I'll have a few more babies with Klein and see what Guixing's last name is in the end."
Bolvar's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and he couldn't help but curse: "You're still a human being , how could you do such a thing!?"
"My reputation is absolutely trustworthy. Guess whether I can do it or not." Li Yu said with a smile.
Bolvar took a deep breath and could only reluctantly stand in front of Rudolf and the other man.
Rudolf and Conrad looked at each other and once again had a new understanding of Li Yu's bottom line.
No matter whether the other party can do it or not, this method is not something that ordinary people can think of.
Forget it, forget it. It’s just a matter of beating this kid for a few more days. At worst, I can use more force when the time comes.
Thus, the matter was happily resolved, and the energy detectors near the central galaxy continued to explode and roar for a period of time.
"Damn, you bastard, I let you come up with such a plan to wipe out the whole family!" Bolvar's whole body was burning with flames, his punches hit the flesh, and he was furious!
"Very good, remember this anger, Bolvar, keep going!" Li Yu laughed and rushed forward.
…
The short half month passed in a flash. What interrupted Li Yu's battle was not only the arrival of Ambassador Kili in Morton, but also the news from the system.
There was news about clone No. 2 again. After his embarrassing escape last time, he was quickly caught as Li Yu had expected.
This time, the joint hunting army set up a tight net, and Odin even sought support from other gods to forcibly lock the position of No. 2, confining the space and no longer giving him any chance to escape.
Despite a desperate resistance, No. 2 was still nailed to the Eternal Spear.
Yes... Odin has taken action. The others are really no match for No. 2. They are just there to serve as food.
During this siege, a large number of rewards were naturally given out, but the most noteworthy ones were only three items.
[Obtain special item - Wrath of the Gods: You killed the son of the God King, which made the gods united in hatred and launched a siege against you.
Forcefully lock the target's position and launch a siege by the gods. If the target is strong enough, it can resist the siege by the gods. 】
[Obtain special item - God King Odin: As the God King of Asgard, Odin has the power to look down on the nine realms.
Short-term acquisition - God King form, duration - 30 minutes. 】
[Obtain special item - Eternal Thorn: As the weapon of God King Odin, the Eternal Spear - Gungnir contains Odin's wrath.
Odin delivers a powerful blow, containing the power of the Spear of Eternity. 】
Li Yu was very surprised by the three cards shining with bright light. Although it was a pity that he did not completely obtain the Spear of Eternity, it was also very good.
However, the outrageous thing is that No. 2 did not die.
Although he was nailed, Odin did not kill him on the spot. Instead, he captured him alive and prepared to execute him in public to commemorate his son in Valhalla.
This is an ancient punishment. After all, it is not killing on the spot, so there is a certain risk.
But Odin was determined to make his enemy die in pain.
