Chapter 629: Fight alongside the enemy!
While Lloyd was leaving, suppressing his anger, Li Yu had already followed the Pioneer fleet back to their base.
In the process of clearing the battlefield, many Star Empire soldiers were found who were seriously injured but not completely dead.
However, the pioneers did not get much valuable from them.
After all, these people are just low-level soldiers and don't know much.
The most valuable thing is the mainframe removed from the ruins of the battleship. Some of the communication information hidden in it is extremely valuable.
However, it still takes some time to decode it.
Li Yu stood in front of the porthole, staring at the gaseous planet in front of him.
The interstellar space is vast and boundless. It is basically impossible to find a planet by human power without coordinates.
The Forerunner's base was located there. As the thick atmosphere was cut open, numerous warships filed in, entered the cabins, and underwent repairs.
"Vasco, transfer the prisoners to the prison. Although the information we can get from them is limited, don't miss any clues." Ales ordered:
"Regini, you are responsible for cracking the mainframe taken from the ruins of the battleship. I always feel that the purpose of the Star Empire is not simple. I want to know why they only sent these people here."
These two people were his subordinates. Although the war was over, the follow-up work was not yet completed .
"Yes!" the two responded in a deep voice.
And Ales continued: "Alfonso, you will follow me to the main base and be responsible for supplementing the battle report."
"I understand." Li Yu nodded, and the other two looked at him with envy.
This is the advantage of being the top subordinate. If there is any opportunity to show up at a high level, he will naturally choose his confidant.
This is also the reason why Li Yu chose to replace Alfonso.
He had already figured out all these situations while he was leading the way.
"Lord Ales's great victory over the Star Empire this time is a rare victory. Maybe he can get the right to use the Thunder Armor because of it." Regini complimented.
And Vasco agreed, "Yes, Lord Ales has applied many times but failed. I believe this time it will be successful."
Li Yu's expression changed slightly when he heard this. Judging from the tone of these two guys, Ales seemed to be quite coveting the Thunder Battle Armor and wanted to apply for the right to use it.
But it is understandable. After all, it is a Titan artifact. There are only a limited number of them in the entire universe. Who wouldn't covet it?
Although he became Alfonso on the surface, he actually knew nothing about the information here.
In this situation, the best way to deal with it is to remain silent.
Although under the influence of the Black Widow, others will not doubt that he is not Alfonso, but they will doubt Alfonso himself.
This is not difficult to understand. For example, he is Alfonso now. If he betrays the Forerunner, everyone will think that it was Alfonso who betrayed him. Although they will not doubt his identity, they will still attack him.
He now needs to determine the location of the Thunder Armor and the number of advanced life forms in this base before he can proceed to the next step.
"Shut up!" Ales frowned and scolded: "This matter is not for you to discuss. The decision lies with the top management."
"And the Star Empire's actions this time are very strange. In my opinion, this cannot be considered a victory."
At this point, he glanced at Alfonso, who was indeed the man he had his eyes on, and did not agree with the two idiots.
Regini and the other man looked a little stiff and looked at each other. They were trying to flatter the horse but ended up flattering it.
They did not dare to refute Alais's scolding, so they could only nod and say yes, then hurriedly took their leave to deal with their own affairs.
Ales snorted coldly, but didn't say much. He took Li Yu and went to the main base.
The columnar main base is deep in the core, surrounded by a large amount of lightning, howling winds, gathering storms, and raging thunder and wind tornadoes.
This seemingly horrifying natural wonder is unlikely to cause any harm to the two.
The two of them landed in the central part of the columnar base, where someone had already been waiting. Under the leadership of Ales, Li Yu was not subject to much scrutiny.
Then he took the elevator to the upper level of the main base.
Several managers of this base were already waiting here. Although they were from different races, they all had smiles on their faces.
"Congratulations, Commander Alais. This is a great victory. We have reported it to the headquarters and I believe there will be a response soon."
These managers were certainly not flattering, they were just complimenting him. Ales was in charge of security in the base, and because of his strength, his status was equal to theirs.
And Alais did not remain cold-faced, and responded: "It was just luck. The force dispatched by the Star Empire this time was not very strong, so I took advantage of it."
Li Yu was observing a few people behind Ales. The aura of these three guys was not too strong.
There are even two of them who are not A-level life forms. It is obvious that they have special talents in other aspects to be on par with Ales.
This also made him feel relieved, as the power in this base was not as high as he had imagined.
He thought there would be several A5-level life forms, but now it seems that there is only Ales.
However, when you think about it, this is only natural.
A5-level life forms are already at the top of the interstellar space and are extremely rare.
A large armed force like the Abyss Research Institute only has two or three members at its peak.
And in more declining periods, there wasn't even any.
No matter how powerful the Forerunners are, it is impossible to deploy multiple A5-level life forms in a single branch base.
If there wasn't a Titan artifact hidden here, even Ales wouldn't have come.
"Alfonso, describe the details of the battle," Alès ordered.
"Yes..." Li Yu was speechless. No wonder Ales brought him here. Since he was the big boss, it was impossible for him to dictate the battle report. Naturally, this job fell on him.
Fortunately, he was not asked to report other things. He was quite familiar with the battle and said immediately: "At the beginning..."
It took Li Yu about twenty minutes to add some details that were not included in the battle report.
Let everyone have a more specific understanding of this battle.
"The Nabus Snakeman Legion is indeed disappointing. If it were the Troll Legion or the Four-Armed Titan Legion, their losses would not be so heavy even if they failed." An administrator sneered.
"But this matter is indeed very strange. If the Star Empire intends to attack us, why would they send such a weak force?"
"Even if we use the alien camp as the main force, it is still a bit too weak."
“…”
Several people were discussing and making all kinds of speculations, while Li Yu was daydreaming and remained silent.
At this moment, a beeping sound suddenly came from the room. Ales and the others' faces changed slightly, and they ordered, "Alfonso, you can go out."
Li Yu was slightly shocked and nodded: "Yes!"
He lowered his head and walked straight out of the room. When he closed the door, he vaguely saw a bright blue light condensing in the room, which seemed to be a projection.
He should be the real senior leader of the Forerunner, Li Yu guessed in his heart.
He was quite curious, but these people obviously didn't want him to sit in.
But this was exactly what he wanted. If his guess was correct, the Thunder Armor... should be in this main base.
Li Yu didn't know the exact location, but he used a very simple method and tried each place one by one.
Alfonso has a high level of authority since he is Ales' confidant. There are not many places in this main base that he cannot go to.
Ales had just forbidden them to discuss the Thunder Armor, let alone get close.
This means that the place he is forbidden to approach is most likely where the Thunder Battle Armor is.
Thinking of this, his steps suddenly quickened.
Inside the entire main base, there are a large number of rooms on each floor, all of which are various laboratories.
Li Yu took a rough look and found that they were basically studying the application of lightning elements and special materials discovered from somewhere.
And on the metal corridor, there are surveillance cameras and guard soldiers everywhere.
His face was quite prestigious here, and many guards saluted him when they saw him.
When Li Yu saw the soldier saluting him, he knew... this was not the place he wanted to enter.
He walked down layer by layer and gradually began to approach the bottom floor of the base. He could clearly feel that the energy concentration here began to increase and the lightning element was extremely active.
At regular intervals, there are special mechanical devices to absorb active lightning elemental forces and prevent them from forming substantial electric arcs.
Li Yu pinched casually, and lightning gathered around his fingers.
Finally, Li Yu met the first guard who did not salute him.
The soldier in front of him, wearing heavy silver-white armor, stretched out his hand towards him, making a gesture to stop.
"Mr. Alfonso, the front is already an S-level restricted area. You do not have permission to enter. Please leave here as soon as possible."
The four guard soldiers exuded a strong aura. They were all A-level life forms, although their level was not high.
Behind them was a dark metal door, currently closed.
"S-level restricted area?" Li Yu smiled: "Then it looks like this is it."
"Sir Alfonso, please leave here as soon as possible!" The four soldiers raised their voices and warned again.
"But I want to go in?"
Li Yu's tone was playful. The difficulty in finding the Thunder Armor lies in determining the location of the Forerunner base and the opponent's defensive strength.
Now that both of these have been confirmed, with Li Yu's current strength, there is no need to use any other methods, he can just push forward!
Ales alone cannot pose much threat to him!
…
"...Your guess is not without reason. The intentions of the Star Empire this time are unclear, and the alien camp is watching covetously in secret. The best way now is indeed to move the Thunder Armor."
In the top floor conference room, the blurry projection said in a deep voice.
"How far have you researched the Thunder Armor? Can you extract the essence from it..."
"This..." Several managers looked at each other and hesitated, "I'm afraid it will take some time. We have made some progress with the help of the Titan ruins here, but it will take more time to succeed completely."
"In that case, then don't move for now." The blurry projection said, "The location of the sub-base is top secret. As long as Mark is stable, there will be no problem."
"As for the alien dimension camp and the Star Empire, we will send support."
"Even if a war breaks out, it won't last long. The Titan Temple will soon be opened, and everyone's attention will be diverted from here."
"Yes!" Everyone nodded, and the blurred projection said:
"You don't have to worry too much. According to the information I received, the fleet of the Star Empire was attacked. Lloyd suspected that Li Yu leaked the news, and the two of them are almost broken up."
"Oh, this is good news." Several people were delighted. "I didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain. Mark's information was very timely this time."
Another manager sighed, "Unfortunately, it is said that the person who discovered the location of the Star Empire fleet has died in the previous war."
"However, Li Yu disappeared mysteriously for a long time. It is said that he is researching a secret weapon to deal with the Abyss Research Institute." The blurred projection added.
"A secret weapon to deal with the Abyss Research Institute?" Several people looked at each other with strange expressions.
At this juncture, researching secret weapons to deal with the Abyss Research Institute is too outrageous.
"Based on the known information, this seemingly sudden war is actually not very threatening. Both sides have their own calculations. We just need to sit back and wait." said the fuzzy projection.
"clear……"
With the analysis from the big boss at the headquarters, they immediately relaxed a lot and had smiles on their faces.
However, at this moment, a shrill alarm suddenly sounded in the room——
"Warning, warning, the core experimental area has been destroyed, level one alert activated, please go there as soon as possible to fight the enemy!"
The relaxed expressions of the few people suddenly changed. The core experimental area was where they stored the Thunder Battle Armor.
How could someone attack!?
This news made everyone a little confused. They were sitting on the Diaoyutai one second, and their lair was destroyed the next second.
This is too sudden! ?
Ales hurriedly opened the smart terminal and called up the last surveillance video of the core experimental area. A familiar figure appeared in front of him, causing his pupils to shrink. He couldn't help but stand up and shouted:
"Alfonso!?"
