Chapter 720: Unforeseen Developments
Walker didn't take it seriously for now as he had become a member of the A-level alliance without knowing why. He continued, "I've always heard that His Excellency Long Zun takes the stability of interstellar society as his responsibility ."
"I didn't think much of it before, but now I see that you are willing to go deep into the ancient channel for a terrifying life form. I really admire you."
Listening to the other party's flattery, Li Yu was unmoved.
Although the Fallen City does not have a very good reputation among major civilizations, it is believed that Walker does not take them seriously at all due to his geographical advantage.
But in fact, Walker is a very sensible person. He will never treat those large civilizations and forces that he cannot afford to offend with an arrogant attitude.
He only cared about those civilizations that posed no threat to him.
As for people like Yu Li, he would treat them with the utmost respect and would never let them find any fault with them.
"Sir Walker, the Fallen City has been established for more than 5,000 years..." Li Yu suddenly brought up another topic.
Walker was a little confused, but still answered: "Five thousand two hundred and thirty years..."
Walker seemed a little emotional at this moment: "It's still young, but I'm not in my prime anymore."
Compared with other organizations that have been established for a long time, Fallen City is not that old.
Even the original creator and explorer, Walker, is still alive.
Li Yu had indirectly had friction with this force, but it was all old news and not worth mentioning.
"It's really not easy..." Li Yu's words made Walker somewhat confused, but he didn't care.
The two chatted intermittently, and time passed slowly.
Soon, about twenty minutes had passed since Li Yu arrived.
"Mr. Walker, haven't you found it yet?" Li Yu suddenly frowned and asked, his tone a little cold and hard.
Walker was slightly stunned. Some of his confidants had already left the fallen city and were arranging various matters in the new base.
He doesn't have much power left in the fallen city. Blocking the city is already his limit. How could he have the power to find people?
He just wanted to delay time, and then perfunctorily said: "It's only been a short time, you don't have to worry, there should be news soon."
"I think Sir Walker is deliberately delaying time!" Li Yu suddenly shouted coldly.
Walker was shocked. Damn, how did this guy know that?
Before he could say anything, Li Yu continued, "You don't want to help me find someone at all. I'm afraid you're just being perfunctory and deliberately delaying time."
Walker immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He felt guilty just now. When he heard Li Yu say that he was delaying time, he thought that Li Yu had already known about his dealings with the Star Empire.
It seemed like he was just guessing that he didn't want to cooperate.
He immediately gained confidence and said with a wry smile: "How is that possible? You misunderstood..."
"This terrifying life form has entered the Fallen City. I am advising you to prevent it from causing greater casualties." Li Yu continued:
"Since you don't know people's hearts, forget it. Goodbye."
After Li Yu finished speaking, he stood up and was about to leave.
Walker, who had been smiling, suddenly changed his expression.
Now it’s okay for Li Yu to point at his nose and curse him, he is just afraid that this guy will leave.
"Your Excellency Long Zun, wait a minute..." He couldn't help but say, Damn, I have already filled out the forms, I can't let it go to waste now.
Li Yu ignored it, as if he didn't hear Walker's call.
In desperation, the old guy grabbed Li Yu's shoulder.
Oh no!
But the moment he took action, he felt regretful.
Sizzle!
A golden-red arc of electricity surged, and a terrifying aura rose from Li Yu.
Walker felt his arm go numb and he couldn't help but let go of his hand. He staggered back a few steps with some shock in his eyes.
Li Yu didn't even turn his head, and his indifferent voice reached Walker's ears: "Are you tired of living?"
These calm words without a hint of arrogance made Walker unable to hold back his anger.
After all, he is the head of a large armed organization. It is a shame to be despised like this!
"I just want you to not misunderstand me." He said, forcing a smile.
"Hmph, maybe that horrible life form has already left." Li Yu had a bad attitude and flew away from the fallen city like a flash of lightning.
This time, Walker did not stop him and could only watch him leave with a gloomy expression.
Just after Li Yu left, an angry Cebeda rushed in. Her face flushed, her chest heaving, and she shouted, "Walker, why didn't you stop him!?"
"Can I stop him?" Walker asked back, "You all know his strength, how can I beat him?"
"We have to fight even if we can't win. It's just a few minutes!" Cebeda gritted his teeth in anger: "Do you know how much damage you have caused?!"
"What does this have to do with me?" Walker was puzzled. "That guy is moody. If it weren't for the fact that the deal between you and me was just decided not long ago, no one would know about it."
"I even doubt that he knows that you have taken over the Fallen City."
"I was just helping, you can't possibly want me to die." Walker had a bad attitude.
Having just been humiliated by Li Yu, the representative of the Star Empire also yelled at him, really treating him like dirt.
Sebeda looked at him coldly, too lazy to explain anything to this guy, and could only say in a deep voice: "Continue to block this place. The terrifying life form that Li Yu is chasing is definitely not simple."
"That's your business." Walker shook his head, not yet realizing the seriousness of the matter.
Two minutes later, a bright light suddenly flashed across the dark and vast starry sky, and then ripples like water waves filled the space. A cross starship hundreds of kilometers long emerged from the ripples and hovered above the fallen city.
Then, a breath of fear descended upon all living things in the fallen city .
The breath was not very strong, but it made them feel as if there was an indescribable life form looking down at them.
Walker, who was originally quite leisurely, suddenly froze with an expression of disbelief on his face: "Super...life form!"
At the same time, Cebeda had already knelt on one knee skillfully.
At some point, an interstellar human in golden armor appeared in front of her, his eyes filled with the vicissitudes and indifference left by the years.
His features were the same sharp and chiseled look that one would expect from an imperial noble, with an intricate emblem on his breastplate. His voice carried a power that frightened Walker.
"Where are the people?"
"He left here three minutes ago..." Sebeda reported respectfully.
"Hmm?" He frowned slightly, some special patterns reflected in his pupils, and an aura like the abyss permeated his body:
"There was no trace, he cleaned up his tail, as careful as ever."
"Why didn't you stop him?" The voice poured into Walker's ears like thunder.
Sebeda, who was kneeling on one knee, did not look up or respond. It was obvious that the question was directed at Walker.
Walker was in a state of confusion. The moment this super life appeared, he knew that something bad was going to happen.
He didn't expect that the Star Empire would actually send out super life forms this time.
He thought that if Cebeda asked him to hold Li Yu back, at most he would only wait for a few A5-level life forms to arrive.
At the same time, he also understood that since the Star Empire had dispatched such a low-level force, it would definitely not let this news spread.
Then it would be impossible for him to escape from here.
With his mind racing, he also knelt on one knee like Cebeda and said, "Sir, I have tried my best, but I cannot be his opponent in a head-on fight."
"But there are no signs of battle on your body..." The other party's tone was light, but Walker felt as if a huge mountain was pressing down on him.
I began to regret why I didn't leave in time and instead stayed here.
His guess turned out to be correct, the Ancient Waterway was about to have a big shitstorm.
Unfortunately, he did not leave quickly and was forced to get involved.
"I am willing to sacrifice the fallen city as atonement!" He threw out the biggest bet without hesitation.
"Interesting..." This super life form said with an unspeakable meaning, "Get up, it's not your fault, there's no need to do this."
Walker heaved a sigh of relief, not caring about the pain, and continued, "Long... Li Yu came here to track down a terrifying life form. He must have his own purpose."
"He thought the terrifying life form had already escaped, but he didn't know that once the blockade procedure of my fallen city was activated, it would become a space of its own, and no life form could easily leave."
"Oh... a terrifying life form." His eyes moved slightly, and a large number of symbols floated in his pupils, and various geometric patterns flashed.
The next moment he disappeared from the spot, and when he appeared again, there was a translucent little octopus in his hand.
"Living octopus, Golf..." Sebeda recognized it at the first sight.
"Its active range should be in the Chist Civilization Federation. How come it appears here?"
Golf was a little confused. He thought he had paid the price to escape from that guy's pursuit, but how come a super life form suddenly appeared?
He was trembling.
"Are you interested in telling me why Li Yu is chasing you?" The super life form looked down at Golf .
The oppression of the life class has left it with no thought of resistance.
For the sake of his own life, he betrayed the Fallen Titan without hesitation.
As he spoke, Sebeda's face became more and more shocked, while Walker's expression became more and more ugly.
He clearly understood one thing: knowing too much is not a good thing.
…
The incident that occurred in the fallen city was directly reported to the highest decision-making level of the Star Empire.
The eight-member team gathered again to discuss the latest news and the changes that had occurred.
"...Sir Golden Armor was three minutes late. Li Yu left early and cleaned up all traces, making him impossible to track." Loren narrated the incident.
They were reported the incident immediately and have been paying attention to it ever since.
"Three minutes, what a lucky guy." Sisoke said coldly.
"Good luck, maybe not..." Mozambique shook his head: "There are too many doubts about this sudden change."
"Let's look at the new information first. Through Golf, we roughly know the target of Li Yu or the alien camp, the fallen Titan." Loren went straight to the point:
"There is an organization called Shadow inside the Terror Lifeforms, and its leader is the Fallen Titan. This is unexpected information—the Fallen Titan is also in the Ancient Channel."
"Fallen Titan, I see..." Everyone looked enlightened, as if they understood the enemy's goal.
Loren nodded: "This fallen Titan is very valuable. Although we have been searching for it in secret, we have found nothing."
"This is an opportunity, maybe we can kill two birds with one stone." Tallama crossed his legs, a gleam of light in his eyes.
"Greed will only lead to failure!" Mozambique shook his head.
"We must find the Fallen Titan." Loren raised his voice a little: "Only by finding the Fallen Titan can we find traces of the enemy."
"The Ancient Channel is a special place where we can fully demonstrate our strength without fear of being discovered."
When this point was mentioned, everyone's expressions became a little subtle.
"We still have to make sure this is not a trap." Mozambique stressed.
"Golf was discovered by Li Yu at the entrance to Barroft, and his original trajectory was not that direction. He just acted on impulse," Loren analyzed.
"Our deal with Fallen City was only recently finalized, so it's impossible for Li Yu to know about it in advance."
"In front of the golden armor, it is impossible for Golf to lie. He did not collude with Li Yu."
"If this is a trap, it means that Li Yu knew in advance that Golf would change his route, and knew that the other party would suddenly devour the people at Balft's entry point."
"And without Gulf knowing, we drove them to the fallen city that we had taken over."
"We can also know exactly when Mr. Gold Armor will arrive, and evacuate in advance."
After Loren finished speaking, everyone looked at each other. This series of possibilities seemed a little low.
"We will let Golf lead us to their designated gathering place." Loren paused and continued, "Of course, to be on the safe side, our first choice is not to attack the Fallen Titan, but to cooperate."
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend. If he knew that the alien camp was preparing to attack him, he probably wouldn't mind cooperating with us."
