Chapter 891: It Turns Out to be Bait
"I thought you would hide in some unexpected place." Li Yu walked straight into the room.
Alessandro was sitting on the sofa with a giggling baby in his arms.
He didn't seem to be surprised by Li Yu's arrival, but Li Yu noticed that this guy's body was stiff for a moment.
This is an ordinary house, as ordinary as it can be, with a family of three.
There is also a deed hanging on the wall, which is a document that stipulates that both parties can only have one spouse.
This has legal effect within the Star Empire.
Polygamy is widespread and normal in the interstellar age, but this kind of contract, representing loyalty and love for each other, is relatively rare.
If you violate it, you will be sentenced, so it is worth hanging it up to show off.
As for the couple, they sat on the sofa with stiff expressions, as if they had lost consciousness.
"Do I still have hope of living?" Alessandro asked very bluntly, he didn't want to die.
"Do you have any other value?" Li Yu asked back.
"The Temple of Departure... Have you found how to use it?" Alessandro asked tentatively.
"That's about right." Li Yu shrugged and said, "But if you just transfer the authority to me, that's fine too."
Currently, he can only use the [Death Temple] through the [Sympathetic Reproduction Suit] .
This thing doesn't have much use in combat, it's mainly for side assistance, and there's no point in it taking up an inlay slot.
If he could obtain the usage rights directly, then he wouldn't have to worry about anything in the rear.
"Can it be exchanged for my life?"
"Yes, but you must be imprisoned by me." Li Yu said frankly.
"In the database of the Star Empire, you have not breached the contract, so I believe you." Alessandro flattered calmly. This is the power of an old man.
It doesn't sound like flattery on the surface, but the more you appreciate it, the more it looks like it.
Li Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled: "It seems that you can only trust me."
Alessandro smiled bitterly, slowly stood up, placed the baby in his arms in the hands of the unconscious and unable to move couple, and followed Li Yu away.
"Where's Shane? Is he dead?"
"Well, he seems crazy and has no value."
"I guessed it."
"What are you going to do next?"
"Let's kill those guys from outside first."
Alessandro stopped suddenly and looked at Li Yu suspiciously: "Are you really going to revive the Star Empire?"
"It seems like this doesn't mean anything to you."
"Of course, otherwise why would I spend so much effort?" Li Yu glanced at Alessandro: "Besides, how do you know that reviving the Star Empire is meaningless to me?"
Alessandro obviously couldn't understand Li Yu's purpose and shook his head helplessly.
…
With the help of the star gate for transporting materials, Li Yu came directly from the Star Empire to the construction site of the link channel.
What catches the eye is a long dragon composed of battleships, space armed fortresses, and large armored vehicles, stretching out with almost no end in sight.
Five huge interstellar fortresses support each other and form a defensive formation, belonging to five major civilizations.
At the same time, the leading leaders of the five major civilizations also held an emergency meeting.
Saphil was no longer calm and indifferent, and even became a little anxious and uneasy.
"According to the latest news, Long Zun has already entered the Xingyao Capital System. No... to be more precise, he has entered it. That group of people has offered almost no resistance..."
"Next, he will definitely attack us!"
“Haha…” The four of them burst into laughter. Saphill frowned and looked at Barosa. He couldn’t help but scolded: “What time is it? You are still laughing here!?”
"I'm laughing because it's so good. Now that he's still in this interstellar space, it's easy to deal with." Barosa seemed to be relieved, with excitement flashing in his eyes.
"What's easy to do?" Sapshir shouted, "Can you beat Long Zun?"
"Or do you have any trump card?"
"Oh, I forgot, if you really had any trump card, the Holy Lance of Arnania would not be lost."
Barosa's eyes were filled with murderous intent, but it quickly faded away. He sneered, "Since we are about to die together, I will not be like you."
"Mad man!" Saphill's heart was filled with rage. He didn't know what kind of crazy drug Barossa had taken to have such an attitude.
“Where’s Hanado? We can’t contact him either. Where did he go?!” He looked at an empty seat and yelled.
The leaders of the vanguard forces of the other two civilizations were not as anxious as he was.
The Mechanical Lord of the Eternal Civilization had already made a data backup when he came, so he could achieve another form of resurrection.
If he sacrifices, he can obtain a free body building opportunity as a "warrior" and once again possess the combat power of a mechanical lord.
However, it is hard to say whether the self after Data's resurrection is still himself.
And that god is not a normal person at all. It is not enough to describe him as paranoid.
If we exclude Barosa who went crazy for no apparent reason and Hanado who disappeared, it seems that Saphill is the only normal person left.
He didn't have this feeling at first, but as the life-and-death crisis approached, Saphill realized that these people were just a group of lunatics.
"I don't care about you anymore, I want to leave by myself!" He left the table angrily, but the alarm that sounded immediately afterwards made Barossa grin, and his expression changed drastically.
Outside the fleet, all radars locked onto a figure.
It’s Dragon Lord!
The morning light was shining brightly, with a faint glow refracted from the edge of the warship .
"Attack!" Even though Sapshire was panicking, he was a super life form after all, so he quickly adjusted himself and issued various orders quickly.
He didn't think about defeating the opponent, but wanted to stop the opponent as much as possible so that he could have a chance to leave here.
Barosa seemed to see through his thoughts, but he didn't say much. He just sneered, stood up suddenly, and said meaningfully: "It is impossible for you to leave this star system."
"Either die early or die later, there is no other possibility."
"What do you mean?" Saphil asked, a little confused, with a bad premonition in his heart.
But Barosa had left the room and appeared in the stars.
"It's you, an old acquaintance..."
In the starry sky, Li Yu looked at Barossa who suddenly appeared and spoke.
"Li Yu...Long Zun, I finally see you again." Barossa showed a strange expression, as if he had gotten what he wanted.
"Uh..." Li Yu felt a little strange: "Should we be considered enemies?"
"Of course it's an enemy!" Barosa suddenly revealed a sinister smile: "My mission is to come to this interstellar space to find you."
"For you, I used every possible means to destroy your reputation and make you a target of public outrage, but you didn't show up."
"I thought you had left this galaxy and was disappointed for a long time, but I didn't expect you to jump out by yourself."
Li Yu frowned slightly when he heard this. When he showed up, he had already carefully scouted the surroundings and there was no ambush or the like.
Why does this guy look like he has him figured out?
"And then what? What are you going to do when I show up?" he asked tentatively.
"I will charge at you and then be killed by you." Li Yu was shocked by Barosa's words.
"That's it?"
“Haha!” Barosa laughed again. “It’s hard to imagine who gave you the courage to offend four of the five major civilizations at the same time.”
"You are indeed difficult and slippery, but do you really think that the five major civilizations can't deal with you?"
"Do you really think that hiding in these ruins can stop the five great civilizations?"
Li Yu stared at him, as if thinking. After a moment, a sharp light flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly said: "So you are just bait..."
"No, I should come here with a dual mission."
"That's right." Barosa grinned. "We are bait with a mission. If you don't show up, we will build a link channel, but this is not the main mission."
"From the moment we confirmed that you were here, the Great Cosmic Alliance sealed off this ruin, and no one could get out."
"You may think that with the Arnanian Holy Lance, there is no place you can't go?"
"But don't forget, there are still four civilizations at our level!"
This sudden situation really surprised Li Yu.
All the vanguard forces, including Barossa, are essentially just bait.
Because, no matter how you look at it, this vanguard force could never be his opponent.
But it also carries such an important task as building a link channel.
Once the link channel is successfully established, outside civilizations will be able to enter here unimpeded.
Preventing them from successfully establishing seems to be a regular option.
Once Li Yu appears, they will block the entire ruins and trap Li Yu inside.
It is equivalent to locking down a general direction. As long as the general direction is locked down, the five major civilizations will have plenty of ways to deal with him.
Although the rule-entangled area is still a trouble for them, this trouble can be erased by time.
Sooner or later they will be able to march forward with their army!
As long as Li Yu doesn't escape into the vast universe, he will be trapped in a jar.
In order to make this plan a success, they did not hesitate to use life forms at Barossa's level as bait.
"We are just bait, how could this be the case!?" In the command room, Saphill obviously did not expect this answer.
This explains Barossa's previous abnormal behavior.
His goal was just to lure Li Yu out, and as long as he achieved this goal, the mission would be accomplished.
That's why the means are so drastic, even at any cost.
Among the five people, it seems that only Barosa knows the mission objective clearly.
"Bait?" The Mechanical Lord's pupils flickered, but he did not react much.
Mechanical Overlords are considered high-end consumables for the Eternal Civilization, and it is simply a matter of resources.
He had already realized this.
That god is similar. The God of Creation can create a new god at any time using faith.
Only Sapshir found it hard to accept. He was a holy spirit with the supreme status among the star spirits, but now he had become a bait! ?
"Your fate is already determined, Long Zun." Barosa looked at Li Yu and rushed over without hesitation.
Many soldiers stared with wide eyes, watching Li Yu take out the Holy Spear of Arnania, which flashed a dazzling incandescent light.
The next moment, their consciousness was reduced to a vast expanse of whiteness, as if the world was created.
Boom! !
A violent explosion occurred, and the ripple-like shock wave spread far into the universe, even affecting some surrounding warships.
The energy dissipates.
Barossa was completely annihilated and died in the explosion, without even a trace left.
"I'm not sure what my fate will be, but yours is certain." Li Yu held the Holy Spear of Arnania and looked at the command ship not far away.
Three streams of light flew out from it, each spreading out and rushing in different directions, looking for a glimmer of hope.
Even if they already know that they are just bait, they will not surrender.
At the same time, somewhere in a star field.
Hanar took out the smart terminal again. The name displayed this time made him look serious. After answering the call, the projection appeared and he nodded and said, "The Prophet..."
"I will give you a coordinate. Use this coordinate to cross the rule entanglement area, and someone will pick you up halfway." The prophet said directly.
"But... there is still a piece missing." Hanar hesitated.
"There is no time. Dragon Lord has appeared and you will not be able to get out soon." The prophet said in a deep voice.
"What do you mean?" Hanar was a little confused. "I'm afraid that Long Zun won't be able to find me for a while. I still have time and will be able to get it soon."
The prophet didn't seem to want to waste words, but he still explained: "You are just bait, just to confirm whether Long Zun is in this ruin."
"Now that we have confirmed that Long Zun is here, we will soon be blocked off from the entire ruins. No one can get through. I'm afraid that Barosa and the other four will not survive."
His eyes were dim as he continued, "I don't want any accidents to happen, so you should withdraw now."
"If I hadn't invested in Damian beforehand, it would be difficult for you to get out now."
"After you bring back the fragments you collected, the overall repair progress should be around 90 percent, which is more than enough."
Are we the bait?
I didn't even know this information beforehand.
Hanar was a little confused when he heard this big news.
He came here with a hidden mission, but the prophet didn't even inform him in advance, which shows the level of confidentiality of this matter.
Only after being urged by the prophet did he react and quickly adjusted his direction, heading towards the coordinates given by the prophet.
