Chapter 690: Throwing Dirty Water
"You can't just counter the other person's move. That's like being led by the nose." Li Yu said with a smile, "Only by taking the initiative can you gain the upper hand."
"Seize the initiative?" The big stone sneered, brought up a holographic screen, and said:
"Take a good look at it. You can overturn the table, and others can do it too. You are still far behind those civilized people in terms of bottom line!"
A video was playing on the holographic screen. The picture had a dark atmosphere and was shaking severely, causing the image to be very blurry.
But the sound was captured very clearly.
"…Is it cleaned up?" It was a mechanical voice.
"It's almost there. There are still some fish that have slipped through the net. We have already locked down their location." Another voice sounded extremely eerie and terrifying.
"How could there be any fish that slipped through the net? If something goes wrong, Lord Long Zun will not let it go!" The mechanized voice had an unfriendly tone.
"It was just an accident..."
"Um!?"
The mechanical voice seemed to have discovered something was wrong, and then the picture shook more violently, and faint cries of crying could be heard.
The cover in front was suddenly torn open, and a mechanical life form appeared on the screen, followed by a beam of energy shooting over.
The screen started to turn black, and the words "Signal Missing" appeared on the display.
"Oh?" Li Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, "Where did this video come from?"
"This was sent to me by an old friend of mine. Three days ago, a remote civilization suffered a galactic massacre, suspected to be caused by a terrifying life form. This blurry video was found at the scene..."
The Stone of Life was huge and said in a deep voice: "You don't know what this means."
"Are you trying to frame me for being involved with this terrifying life form?" Li Yu narrowed his eyes slightly.
"There is seriously insufficient motivation. Long Zun has no reason to do this, and Xingxing won't believe it easily." The lonely mother frowned.
"Hmph, when all the major civilizations exert their strength and public opinion sweeps over, you will know." Life Stone said in a heavy tone:
"We still have time to react if we follow the plan. You are now asking those civilizations to give up their only remaining bottom line. They are targeting you and are using this to attack the A-level alliance."
"Isn't that better? We'll soon be on the battlefield. In the end, we still have to rely on strength to settle everything." Li Yu said indifferently, as if he still didn't take this matter to heart.
"You..." What the Stone of Life was most dissatisfied with was Li Yu's cynical attitude. It seemed that he didn't take the affairs of the A-level alliance to heart at all, and he always solved problems in a simple and rough way.
"Without Long Zun's actions, those people would not necessarily have used these means." Hasband shook his head. You have already seen the real purpose behind this series of actions:
"Their goal is to put the A-level alliance on the pillar of shame, so that those who come after them will think of shame and disgrace when they think of the A-level alliance..."
"Totally eliminate future troubles."
If the A-level alliance is really destroyed because of a founding member who appears to be passionate on the surface but secretly colludes with terrifying life forms.
Even if there are later comers who want to form an A-level alliance, the interstellar society will think of this matter first, and thus naturally feel repulsive.
"What should we do then?" asked the orphan mother.
Major civilizations excluded them, constantly suppressed their influence, and even secretly spread negative news about them.
It's just that they have been famous for too long, unlike Li Yu, who has only been famous for a few years and has not left an indelible impression on the interstellar society.
But it also means that they have very little power to use. If public opinion comes, the falsehood will become true.
"Who is responsible for this? Hmm...it should be Lehman..." Li Yu's eyes flickered, and he suddenly remembered something. What Lehman did was already a tarnish to his reputation.
If you say so... a scarlet card appeared in his hand, depicting an execution platform with a huge guillotine hanging high.
On the execution platform below, there was a figure with a face full of fear. His appearance kept changing. They were all people who tarnished Li Yu's reputation.
He doesn't pay much attention to the public opinion about himself in the interstellar space.
Although a large number of people admire him, there are also some people who continue to discredit him for various reasons.
But basically they can't make it to the stage, and even if they are caught, they won't cause any big waves.
However, with Lehmann's status, even if he does not create hype, he will naturally be accompanied by huge social repercussions.
And [Execution] is about causing a big enough commotion in order to get a higher reward.
Hasband and his companions looked at each other. They were originally discussing what to do, but who knew that Li Yu, the protagonist, fell into silence again inexplicably.
Due to the projection capture device, they could not see the card in Li Yu's hand, they could only sense that this gentleman was in a daze again.
"Whatever happens, I don't care. If we need to disband, then we should disband. I don't care anyway!"
The Stone of Life suddenly stood up. The Stonemen were originally hot-tempered. Although he was special, his temper was not very good either.
"Alas, Mr. Lifestone, please don't be so magnanimous. I have my own way to solve the false accusation against me." Li Yu raised his head and smiled, comforting him:
"Maybe, I can also solve the dilemma of the A-level alliance."
Hearing this, Hasband suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, and couldn't help but ask, "What's the solution? Tell me and we can discuss it."
Li Yu showed a mysterious smile and said, "Keep it secret for now. If you tell it out, it won't work."
Husband's right eye twitched suddenly, which has a bad connotation in some ancient civilizations.
Do you think this is a birthday wish? Now that you say it out loud, it won’t work?
"Let's follow the established plan and collect evidence of their fraud..." Hasband said after calming himself down.
Although it had been envisioned before its establishment, the resistance it faced after its establishment was far greater than he had imagined.
As a result, some of his original plans had to be postponed, such as recruiting some high-level life forms from resistance organizations to join the alliance...
…
The illusory projection gradually disappeared, the fluorescence dissipated, and the instruments around the room also retracted.
The gentle smile on Visa's face faded a little, and he looked at another figure in the room and said softly:
"The major civilizations are ready to throw dirty water. They have fabricated some evidence that the Dragon Lord is colluding with you."
It seemed to be a mermaid, but its lower body was not immersed in liquid. Its scales were light gray, and there were some sharp barbs on its tail. It had sharp teeth and its skin was pale.
Her voice was ethereal, as if it came from a distant void: "Haha, it seems that his end will not be too good. He wants to wipe out us and fight against other civilizations. He is very courageous."
"Siren, don't underestimate him, he is very special..." Visa shook his head.
"Who isn't?" The Siren disappeared on the spot, and when she reappeared, she was already next to Visa, with some light gray light scattered around.
The mermaid's tail also turned into long white legs. She leaned over to Visa's ear and whispered, "Charming spirits, a race that can even seduce Titans."
"Every life form that escaped from the Life Titan Laboratory is special and powerful. Well... maybe there are some idiots..."
"But if he wants to wipe them out, it won't be that easy. From what I know, some of his companions are already very dissatisfied with him."
"Your ability is useless to me. I'm not interested in dealing with him." Visa looked indifferent. When he stood up, everything around him collapsed. The Siren was lying on the sofa, not moving at all.
Siren chuckled twice and said, "What are you afraid of? The alien camp? No matter how powerful this so-called organization is, can it be stronger than the Titan civilization?"
"No need to discuss this issue any further." Visa frowned slightly: "Has your boss not been found yet?"
When this topic was mentioned, Siren's demeanor became somewhat restrained. She shook her head and said, "No one knows where he is. At least he won't come out until he believes that he has no power to protect himself."
"The Ark of Savior is suspected to control a Titan. Isn't that enough to attract his attention?" Visa frowned. After the fallen Titan left the Hisank civilization, it disappeared out of thin air and no one could find it.
"He doesn't care whether there are Titans or not. He only cares about the civilization that destroyed the Titans." Siren explained.
"Forget it, mobilize your people to collect evidence of fraud by major civilizations and help Li Yu deal with this matter." Visa said.
"Forget it. No one will help him. He is trying to wipe us out. Should we help him?" Siren sneered, "We are just secretly connected, but we are not an organization."
Visa took a deep breath, his eyes darkened slightly, and he stopped talking.
…
The interstellar society during this period was in constant turmoil, with one crisis after another.
The popularity of Ark of Savior had not completely died down before it was pushed down by another incident!
The founding vice president of the A-level alliance, the Dragon Lord, who has a great reputation in the interstellar space, was suddenly exposed for colluding with terrifying life forms and slaughtering small civilizations on a large scale.
Along with this news came a large amount of evidence and video footage, including the remains of the Transformers at the massacre scene and the tearful accusations of the survivors.
For a time, all major new media were reporting on this incident.
"...As a high-level life form that has risen extremely fast in the interstellar world in recent years, Long Zun has repeatedly stated in public that he has the responsibility and obligation to guide interstellar society to develop in a better direction..."
"...However, this sudden news makes people question him. Is he really as he appears to be? We can't help but ask..."
“…”
Things have not been completely concluded yet, but a large part of the economic media's reporting tends to be directed in the direction that has already been determined.
Except for some of Long Zun's staunch followers, they are trying to stop the reporting of this extremely serious tendency.
Among them, the netizens whose IP addresses came from Guixing were the most excited. They shouted "shady dealings" and "frame-ups"...
Of course, there are some more extreme ones who believe that even if Long Zun really did this, he must have his own reasons.
As the most advanced life form in the galaxy, Dragon Lord should enjoy privileges. Otherwise, what was the point of working so hard to evolve?
Is this really for selfless dedication? Is this a joke?
Sometimes, extreme and fanatical fans are the most likely to offend people and lead things in unpredictable directions, which can usually be defined as the backlash of traffic...
Most interstellar citizens don't care about the truth, and are too lazy to think deeply about what is hidden behind it.
They would rather see a big shot become infamous and fall from the altar, and then they would like to step on him a few times, which will add more topics of conversation to their boring lives.
In addition, various factors are involved, with major civilizations fanning the flames from behind the scenes.
Public opinion was overwhelming, and it was basically determined that Long Zun had colluded with terrifying life forms to achieve his own ulterior motives.
They demanded a response from the A-level alliance and Long Zun himself.
They even requested all major civilizations to severely punish Dragon Lord and serve as a warning to others who wanted to collude with terrifying life forms.
Of course, this request seems quite funny to anyone with a discerning eye.
Bob, president of the A-level alliance, responded immediately. They will verify the evidence provided by the major civilizations as soon as possible. If they can be confirmed, they will handle it impartially.
As for Long Zun himself, he did not make any response.
…

The gain buff is gone?
Li Yu scanned the page again and confirmed it.
Although [Power of Justice] is of no use at the moment, its prospects are still very broad.
The higher the reputation, the stronger and more buffs will be. Otherwise, they will be weakened or even disappear. It is worthy of being the [Justice League].
At the same time, when he looked at the words "bad reviews flooding in", he felt like he had to complain.
In fact, he doesn't care too much about outside public opinion. If it doesn't involve the "Justice League" buff issue, he can just ignore it. Anyway, no one can really do anything to him. At most, he can be condemned at the interstellar level.
The fundamental purpose of that group of people was to target the A-level alliance. As for him, he was just a bystander, or it could be said that someone simply hated him.
"It would be even better if we could take this opportunity to find some clues about the alien camp."
He could guess with his eyes closed that Lehmann chose to frame the target as his purpose.
