Chapter 814: Initial clues
The Forerunner leader's desertion did surprise him, but it was not a big deal.
With his previous positioning means, he can always lock on the opponent's position.
He has a lot of similar little things, such as [Ron's bat dart], [satellite positioning], etc.
Although it cannot provide positive strength support, it is still very useful in other aspects.
With the [Infinity Gauntlet] clenched tightly, the entire interstellar fortress below was frozen in the void, and one could even see some of the energy cannons that had been fired hovering in the interstellar space.
Prevent the connection equipment here from being damaged. After all, self-destruct devices are basically standard equipment in every base.
He casually pinched out a few magic runes and covered the body left by the forerunner leader. Black chains crisscrossed and finally connected to his body, disappearing without a trace.
Then he turned his gaze to the gray mist.
He could clearly sense that Silver Shadow's life force was gradually fading, and it wouldn't be long before it would completely lose its vital signs.
The attack capability of the Annihilation Device is evident.
However, since the Forerunner leader fled the battlefield, it would be difficult for Silver Shadow to pose any threat to him alone.
In this case, he was not in a hurry to kill the other party.
With a wave of his hand, the gray mist gradually dissipated, and the silver shadow's body, which had been corroded and riddled with holes, had returned to its original form, looking like a silver-white sphere.
Li Yu looked at Yin Ying and said, "He looks similar to the people of the Creator Civilization, but his behavior doesn't match the records in the data."
As the gray mist gradually dissipated, Silver Shadow regained his consciousness and re-mimicked an interstellar human, looking at Li Yu in the oxygen bubble.
Without even taking the time to observe the situation around him, he shouted, "Why can you control the power of the Annihilation Device? Who are you? Are you the Supervisor?"
Li Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, then nodded and said, "You guessed right, I do have some relationship with the Supervisor."
Hearing this, Yin Ying stared at Li Yu, and after a moment he suddenly sneered, "No, you can't be related to them!"
"Don't try to trick me!"
Li Yu originally wanted to fool the other party, but seeing the situation, he was too lazy to pretend and said directly: "Forget it, everyone, stop talking so much. Do you want to live or die?"
"If you want to live, tell me everything. If you want to die, I'll give you a ride."
For this kind of super life form, torture will be of no effect, so it is better to threaten them directly.
"Where's Starfire? Did he run away?" Silver Shadow looked around and then remembered to look for his teammates.
However, to his disappointment, there were not many signs of fighting around, not to mention the sparks that had already realized they were leaving.
"He sold you out without hesitation." Li Yu said.
Silver Shadow sneered, not surprised at all, and said, "Sure enough, this guy has a lot of secrets, and he has been hiding them from me."
"So, what's your answer?" Li Yu held the Titan Axe, looking like he was ready to chop down at any time.
"Even if I don't die, you won't let me go, right? " Silver Shadow asked back.
Li Yu was silent. Obviously, he would not let Yinying leave easily no matter what.
Even if you cooperate with him honestly, you will be imprisoned.
Both parties have this awareness, so there is no point in deceiving each other.
Yin Ying didn't care and said, "You seem to want to know some information from me. It just so happens that I also have some questions that I need your answers to."
"In this way, we can ask each other questions and exchange questions."
Li Yu did not agree immediately. Instead, he stared at the other party with some suspicion: "What's the use of you wanting this information? You should know that you can't leave."
"Just curiosity..." Yin Ying looked at Li Yu calmly: "You don't understand the impact of the Annihilation Device. I really want to know how you master it."
"However, I won't answer some of your questions, so you can decide for yourself, or just kill me. Anyway, I was prepared to die when I crossed the desolate universe."
Silver Shadow is not afraid of death and even seems very calm about it.
Li Yu thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, I'll go first. Are you from the Creator Civilization..."
In order to prevent the other party from misunderstanding, Li Yu also explained considerately: "The Creator Civilization is the civilization that fought against the Titan Civilization."
"Creator Civilization, what a good code name..." Silver Shadow murmured a few words and said, "Yes, I do come from that civilization."
"It's my turn. How did you master the power of the Vessel of Annihilation?" Silver Shadow asked the question directly.
"I integrated the genetic chain of the Creator civilization, and then was promoted to a super life form, and then I gained control of this power." Li Yu also replied, but this answer obviously did not satisfy Yin Ying, and he frowned.
And Li Yu also asked: "How is the Creator Civilization now?"
"I don't want to answer this question..." Silver Shadow shook his head.
"Is the civilization in the outside world that responds to the connecting device also a creator civilization..." Li Yu asked again.
"I don't want to answer this question either. Let me answer another one." Silver Shadow continued to shake his head.
Li Yu's expression remained unchanged, and he asked, "How should the super life form continue to evolve?"
"This question..." Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Li Yu, who said indifferently: "Then tell me what you want to say, and I won't ask any more questions."
Yin Ying was stunned and silent for a moment, with complex emotions in his eyes, and he said slowly:
"The creator civilization you mentioned is no longer the same after the battle with the Titan civilization. A lot of things have happened."
Li Yu's mind was slightly moved, and he added: "Is it because the loss is too severe? Or is it because the Annihilation Device is broken?"
"The Annihilation Device is broken!" Yin Ying was slightly stunned, and then he opened his eyes wide and looked at Li Yu: "Where did you get this news from!?"
"you do not know?"
This time, Li Yu was quite surprised.
"No wonder, no wonder it split..." Silver Shadow seemed to have found the answers to some questions and kept muttering.
"Are you split?" Li Yu grasped the word tightly.
Silver Shadow paused and said, "Our thoughts should have been highly unified, connected by the Annihilation Device, with extremely high efficiency and unity."
"But I don't know when, perhaps because the Annihilation Device was broken, this state was broken, and the tribesmen's minds became selfish, and the split occurred."
It turns out that the aftermath of that war was not just material loss...it actually caused the creator civilization to split from within.
Li Yu had some kind of enlightenment in his heart.
"Tell me in more detail why you can control the power of the Device of Annihilation." Silver Shadow calmed down and continued to ask.
"I extracted the fragments of the Vessel of Annihilation from the body of the Fallen Titan." Li Yu added slightly.
"The fragments of the Annihilation Device are actually like this..." Yin Ying digested it for a moment and looked at Li Yu: "You seem to be very curious about the outside world?"
"It's my turn to ask." Li Yu shook his head.
"I just want to know the source of the Annihilation Device's power. The deal ends here." Silver Shadow shook his head, unwilling to reveal any more information, but revealed a slightly weird smile:
"You have too many secrets. Pray that they will not be discovered by your so-called creator civilization. Even if they have been split, they cannot be contended by a few super beings."
Li Yu stared at him indifferently, raised his axe and swung it down. The terrifying energy reaction was forcibly compressed into a black sphere, which looked crystal clear.
The split of the Creator civilization was unexpected news.
Now it seems that the Device of Annihilation is not only a terrifying offensive weapon, but also an important spiritual pillar connecting the entire Creator civilization.
Once the Annihilation Device was shattered, a split occurred within the Creator civilization.
After thinking for a while, Li Yu began to call his younger brothers, and a large number of Transformers arrived and began to secretly take over this interstellar fortress.
He also sent the nearest Transformer to open a dimensional rift near the coordinates where the Forerunner leader was currently located.
…
At the same time, near the coordinates where the Forerunner leader is currently located.
It looks desolate here, and the meteorite belt stretches for tens of millions of kilometers.
This place is far away from the main civilization group. Even the civilization closest to here will need more than two months of jump voyage.
It's not even certain whether any life has ever set foot here.
However, hidden in the deep space, there is a giant metal fortress that no one can find. It is in the shape of an inverted triangle , and its specific size is almost impossible to distinguish in the space without any reference objects.
In a laboratory in the Metal Fortress, the lights were dim and it seemed that no one had been here for a long time.
Only the most basic red warning light was on.
However, at this moment, a ray of sunlight lit up from the center.
It was a large glass observation column with a dark blue stone enclosed in the center by five prisms.
The morning light was shining from the stone. It was very faint at first, then gradually became dazzling, and finally became difficult to look directly at.
However, in the bright light, two figures appeared around the glass observation column at some point, and they were shrouded in black robes.
At the same time, the entire laboratory was lit up, and the large screen was constantly refreshing the difficult-to-understand data.
"Starfire, I'm back..." one of the voices whispered.
"How dare it come back!"
"You dared to betray us and forcibly merged the prototype of the Titan artifact. You have already committed a great crime." Another figure said coldly.
"He himself knows this, so he must have come back because he had nowhere else to go."
"Let's see what he says first..."
Silence returned here again. Several figures wearing black robes walked into the laboratory one after another and began to operate various instruments.
Soon, a blurry projection emerged in the glass column, which was Xinghuo's consciousness.
Starfire looked around, seemingly trying to recall her memories of this place.
There were some ripples on the surface of his consciousness, and his inner emotions were obviously unstable.
"Xinghuo, you dare to come back!" a black figure shouted.
Xinghuo looked at the two black-robed figures in front of him, and his consciousness fluctuated indifferently: "Di Si, don't blame me yet, there is something you need to know."
The figure called Di Si said coldly: "Don't forget, you are just an experimental subject. As early as when you chose to betray us, you were no longer qualified to talk to us."
"Dis, when I became an experimental subject, you were just an ordinary supervisor." Xinghuo said indifferently. These people were just the descendants of the first generation of supervisors and were not enough to scare him.
Emperor Si ordered: "Eradicate his consciousness. I want to see how long you can continue to be rampant."
"Wait..." another figure spoke, shaking his head, "Don't worry, Xinghuo, I want to know what happened that forced you to have no choice but to return here."
"Desan...you..." Disi looked at another figure.
Xinghuo seemed too lazy to pay attention to this Deis, and said: "This is a long story..."
Next, he gave a general account, including the silver shadow, the connecting device, and Li Yu's sudden attack...
But just as I was talking about connecting devices, I was interrupted.
"Spark!" After learning the whole story, Di Si was obviously very angry and scolded: "Such a big thing, you didn't even inform us, the other party is likely sent by the tribe!"
"Our hope of establishing contact with the outside world has been thwarted just at the last moment!"
"I'm informing you, am I still alive?" Xinghuo asked back, and then said: "Although the other party looks like your people, you should also feel that your people are no longer what they used to be."
"The monitors who stayed behind are constantly splitting up. This would have been impossible before. It's hard to guarantee what the outside groups are like."
"Besides, you are conservatives and cannot interfere in interstellar affairs."
"That's in the past..." Desang shook his head.
"Oh, what happened?" Xinghuo was slightly stunned.
"Not long ago, the last radical Overseer fell. According to the Overseer Agreement, the blockade of the Titan artifact has been lifted. We are free to choose our next actions."
"They are lurking in the Gods Council!?" Spark instantly connected it to the death of the councilors and the Supreme Forge incident some time ago.
Desang did not answer this question, but said: "Next, the plan of casting the connection device will be left to us."
"But the blueprints are still at the base, and I don't have them," Xinghuo shook her head.
"Then go get it." Di Si said as a matter of course.
Xinghuo said meaningfully: "I haven't finished what I said just now, please listen to me first."
