Chapter 698: Incomprehensible and incomprehensible
Now the so-called A-level alliance is just a shell and exists in name only.
In order to avoid being implicated by Li Yu, the founding members hastily withdrew from the association.
The A-level alliance was established just over a month ago, and it has already reached this point, which was beyond Hasband's expectations!
Looking back at the ambitions when it was first established, they seem even more ridiculous now.
The three people had different thoughts, but the outside world was already in an uproar. Li Yu's self-exposure was like adding fuel to the boiling hot oil.
It instantly caused a chain reaction, and almost all the interstellar citizens were stunned, and then an irrepressible feeling of madness arose in everyone's heart.
No matter how low the political sensitivity is, no matter how slow one is, one has reacted now.
Long Zun was slapping the Star Empire in the face.
"Is this revenge for the Star Empire's execution of those A-level life forms?"
"It is said that Lehmann was attacked when he was returning from the execution site."
"It is indeed very likely..."
Some people speculate on the interstellar network.
"But didn't they reconcile before? They must have reached some kind of agreement in secret. Why did Long Zun attack Lehman?"
Some people also refuted, and their words were full of fanaticism.
"It was stated in the Dragon Lord's statement that Lehman colluded with the terrifying life forms and launched a galaxy massacre. This is the fundamental reason why he took action."
"Long Zun is worthy of being Long Zun. He is indifferent to the accusations from the interstellar space and his first move is this powerful move."
"The false accusations a while ago must have been instigated by Lehman!"
Just as Li Yu predicted, when this shocking news spread, no one believed that he was colluding with terrifying life forms.
In order to clear himself of the false accusation, he directly attacked the third heir to the Star Empire and proved his innocence.
And find out clearly that the one who colluded with the terrifying life form was actually the heir to the throne of the empire.
Of course, this is not what Li Yu cares about most.
There was a lot of discussion on the interstellar network. After a series of brewing and reversals, the discussion of this matter has become so heated that almost everyone knows about it.
Everyone is waiting to see how the Star Empire will react.
…
A base of an underground gray organization somewhere within the territory of the Xingyao Empire.
The gray organizations that have been able to survive in the Star Empire until now are basically quite capable, or have connections with some really big shots.
"It's really unexpected that Long Zun did this." The woman in black nun's uniform took off her hood, revealing her delicate face, and looked up at the news report on the wall.
"Yeah, I thought it was a forerunner or some reckless organization, but I didn't expect it to be him." Another bald woman holding a cigar responded. The metal scorpion tail behind her slowly extended in front of her and lit the cigar.
"Widow, I heard that you know this Lord Long Zun, and have cooperated with him before?" An ugly woman cast a curious look.
The widow paused for a moment and said lightly, "Yes, at that time he was not as strong as you guys, but now he has become a great man, things have changed."
"The interstellar rumors are true. It took him less than three years to evolve from an ordinary life form to what he is now?" someone asked in surprise.
"Of course it's true. Our Mithril Goddaughter was rescued by His Excellency Long Zun himself." The widow looked at the figure sitting alone at a table not far away, a slight smile appearing at the corner of her mouth.
"Sir Xiqi, won't you tell me about it? It was an experience worth remembering."
Everyone turned their eyes to Xiqi. They had vaguely heard rumors about this new goddaughter.
Some time ago, when the Star Empire declared war on the alien camp, it tracked down everyone who had been involved with Li Yu.
This godson of Xiqi and the woman code-named the Widow were almost taken away, and it was only because the top leaders of the organization stepped in to save them.
This incident caused an uproar within the organization. No one expected that one of their members would have such a legendary experience.
Xiqi said in a cold tone: "There is nothing to say, it's all old history, that Lord Long Zun should have forgotten those things long ago."
There was some disappointment in everyone's eyes, but because of the goddaughter's noble status, they couldn't ask any more questions and could only change the subject.
"What do you think, how will Long Zun deal with Lehman in the end?"
"What else can we do with it? We will definitely return it to the Star Empire, but I don't know how much secret bargaining will take place."
"Yeah, we can't handle it privately."
Everyone chatted for a while. The Star Empire was monitoring people outside very closely, so they had not carried out any missions recently.
Xiqi turned her back to the crowd, her eyes flickering.
Dragon Lord... I am almost there, just a little bit closer, and I can get that news. That news should be of some use to you...
Xiqi was supported by an unknown belief in her heart, and her status in the Mithril Church rose rapidly.
One day, by chance, she learned a secret information about Tianhuang Star.
The imperial nobleman Shane who was expelled was deliberately stripped of his identity.
She later learned that Li Yu seemed to have attacked Xia En in order to save his life.
If this is the case, Xia En might pose a hidden danger to Li Yu.
What’s more important is that this is only surface news. There is a deeper secret hidden in the Mithril Church, which is related to Shane.
She thought she had to know that news.
…
Regardless of the reactions throughout the interstellar space, the Star Empire responded quickly to this sudden news.
The top executives from various departments gathered together again, with complicated expressions on their faces.
"Everyone, we now have good news and bad news." Lloyd looked around and said:
"The good news is that the person who arrested Lehman has been found!"
"The bad news is, it's better not to find it!"
You are really humorous.
Many senior executives' faces twitched, not knowing how to respond.
In the data model they made, the probability of Long Zun taking action is less than 5%.
The first is the lack of original driving force, that is, motivation.
You can't say that it was because of Lehmann's frame-up of him, that's too far-fetched.
Secondly, he gets no benefit at all.
Long Zun has never deliberately maintained his reputation in the interstellar space, but just hides his bad side out of habit.
Many interstellar celebrities do this.
The public opinion trend targeting him was mainly to force the A-level alliance to submit, and secondly to see if they could lure out the alien-dimensional camp.
It is impossible to gain any valuable benefits from the Star Empire by taking action against Lehman. Many precedents in history are enough to illustrate this point.
That’s why they were so confused after this information came out.
Why is this?!
"Why is it him?" Loren said faintly, his eyes filled with confusion.
I don't know why, Lloyd glanced at him and said, "Rather than analyzing the cause, what we should do now is to deal with this difficult situation."
Loren narrowed his eyes slightly. Lloyd had not reacted much in the previous meetings, but he seemed particularly proactive in this meeting.
"What does he want? After arresting His Highness Lehman, he must have some demands." The head of the intelligence department quickly said, "Let's contact him first and discuss a proper way to deal with this matter."
"That's the trouble..." Lloyd took a deep breath and said, "I contacted him as soon as the statement came out."
"He didn't make any requests. He even revealed the information not to us, but to the entire galaxy."
"No requirements?" Many senior executives seemed extremely surprised.
They arrested Lehman without asking for anything, which made it difficult for everyone to sleep. Is that fun?
"Yes, he has no demands on the Star Empire, but he has his own goals." Lloyd looked around, and everyone's eyes were on him.
Boss, please stop keeping me in suspense at this time.
"He is preparing to publicly execute Lehmann..."
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene was silent for a moment, and then it was like a vegetable market, with all kinds of loud sounds erupting.
"court death!"
"Execute His Highness Lehman!? Who does he think he is? He is not qualified!"
"We will never allow him to do this!"
Many high-ranking officials were very excited. In the history of the Star Empire, there might have been cases where an heir was attacked and captured.
But there has never been a case where the heir apparent was executed at the hands of an outsider.
If this happened, their entire leadership would be thrown into the Star Empire's pillar of shame and remembered forever.
"Are you sure?" The Emperor's gaze fell on Lloyd, making his scalp tingle. He whispered, "Yes, I have warned him severely and emphasized the consequences of this matter, but he is still stubborn."
"He claimed that he was just informing us that no matter what happened, it would not change the established situation."
"What a great Dragon Lord!"
Everyone could hear the anger in the emperor's tone.
Several noble leaders looked at each other in shock, having never expected the situation before them.
Loren was even more confused. Since Lehman was attacked, everything that happened seemed to be beyond his expectations.
"Why would he do this? This will do him no good, only harm!" He couldn't help but say, "If Lehman dies, then the biggest beneficiary..."
At this point, he paused, restrained his fluctuating emotions, and said indifferently: "Sorry, I said something wrong."
Everyone looked at him strangely, glancing at Lloyd from time to time.
Without Loren's reminder, they wouldn't have thought about it in this direction.
After Loren said this, they suddenly realized, damn... if Lord Lehman dies, Lord Lloyd will be the only one in power.
The remaining few heirs have no ability to fight against Lloyd.
The only one who is qualified is a woman, who has a natural disadvantage.
Lloyd will do nothing next. When the emperor's reign ends, he will become the new emperor.
Could it be that Lloyd was really behind this?
There were rumors among senior executives before that Lloyd and Li Yu had frequent contact and their relationship was unusual.
Now that I think about it, it’s really suspicious.
Lloyd was speechless, he knew this would be the result.
Before finding a place where Li Yu could gain benefits, Lloyd was the biggest beneficiary.
In fact, Loren didn't doubt him too much, and Lloyd's suspicion in his heart only lasted for a moment.
If the purpose was just to eliminate dissidents, there was no need for Li Yu to kill Lehman.
The consequences of this are too unpredictable.
Lloyd couldn't explain it openly, so he could only pretend that he didn't hear anything and continued: "Now there is a scene in front of us."
"Li Yu wants to execute Lehman, and we can't change that, nor can we declare war on him, because we will be the only ones who will be embarrassed in the end."
"So, what now?"
This was the scenario that Li Yu had assumed about Lloyd at the time, and now it had come true.
After hearing this, many senior executives pondered silently for a moment, but were finally shocked to find out.
They had no way to stop it.
They could not find any trace of the alien camp and could not locate Li Yu.
In the entire interstellar space, the only person who has a close relationship with Li Yu and is still in the outside world is the Queen of Guixing - Klein.
Use Klein to threaten Li Yu to release Lehman?
They didn't even speak out the plan, they just went over it in their minds, which made them feel that it was a bit ridiculous.
How to break through the blockade of the Titan artifact and capture Klein is a very difficult problem to solve.
Perhaps they can then spend a long time building a perfect trap to lure Li Yu into the game.
But now, there are only four words in front of them - helpless.
The emperor's eyes were dim and no one knew what he was thinking.
When the atmosphere was almost brewing, Lloyd continued his speech.
"Long Zun made a suggestion. In order to give us a way out, we can agree to the charges he made and give him the power of execution."
This sentence caused the scene to be silent for a moment, and everyone had an incredible feeling in their minds.
You want to kill the heir to the empire, but have you considered the embarrassment we will suffer?
Should we thank you too?
Li Yu's series of bizarre behaviors challenged their remaining sanity.
As if giving everyone time to digest the information, Lloyd continued, "To do this, he can hand over the A-level alliance and cooperate with all our propaganda and guidance."
"But the prerequisite is to retain his position, even if it is a nominal position."
When they thought that this was the limit of Li Yu's bizarre behavior, Lloyd's words always gave them a surprise.
Hand over the A-level alliance?
Even if they don’t understand, they still want to ask:
Isn't all of this caused by the A-level alliance?
And in the end you're going to hand it over again! ?
