The landing point of the teor Fleet wasn't far from here. Through the scanners, they easily discovered the battle situation here.
However, the Energy attacks of warships couldn't precisely control their shockwaves, making it easy to cause additional casualties, so Li Yu simply decided to rain down Thunder.
Under his precise control, no shockwaves spread.
"That's right... it's ." Li Yu nodded, acknowledging his Identity. The Captain before him imdiately grew even more excited.
The Squad mbers beside him began to whisper and discuss in low voices.
"This person looks so familiar..."
"Idiot, he's the person the Captain pinned at the head of his bed..."
"Li Yu... a recipient of the Golden Cross dal, also an Honorary Baron of Return Star, a figure who safely survived the '5A lee' in the Erdos Incident."
"Now it's said he's already an A-Tier Lifeform. Too young, even younger than the Captain. I'm so envious..."
"..."
With Li Yu's hearing, he could naturally clearly hear the surrounding conversations. His expression couldn't help but beco sowhat strange. It seed his "legendary experiences" were quite nurous.
The Erdos Incident was only announced in general terms to the public; many people didn't know that Li Yu went there as bait.
However, within the Military, this matter was spreading like wildfire. After all, the teor Fleet's combat record was too astonishing.
It was also accompanied by the incident of the remnants of the teor Fleet insulting the Patrol Fleet Commander.
This led to the entire Patrol Fleet hierarchy not being very fond of the teor Fleet.
"Are... are you here to provide support?"
For such an obvious matter, the Captain of the Ship-Breaking Squad had to ask again, which was enough to show how excited he was now.
"What's wrong with the Captain? Does this question still need to be asked?" a Squad mber asked in confusion.
"He saw his idol, didn't he? Aren't you exactly like this when you lick the rmaid Princess online..." The burly man with a scar on his face winked at the skinnier teammate beside him and whispered:
"I heard this Baron Li Yu served as the peripheral security Captain for the rmaid Princess, and the two of them even had an affair. He even stayed overnight on the Ocean Rose..."
"Impossible!" The teammate said firmly: "The rmaid Princess is a symbol of purity!"
"Then you go up and ask this Baron how the rmaid Princess tastes?"
"Scram!"
Hearing the conversation, Li Yu was sowhat bewildered. Where did these rumors co from? Just because I stayed overnight on the Ocean Rose, you say I had an affair with the rmaid Princess?
"Shut up!" The Captain couldn't bear it anymore and turned his head to scold. Imdiately, the whispering Squad mbers shut their mouths and didn't dare speak again; his prestige was still very high.
"E-excuse ... are you the Holy Emissary sent by Tanxia?" Among the apprehensive crowd, an old man walked out unsteadily, wearing shabby religious attire, and asked with anticipation.
"Tanxia?" Li Yu was sowhat puzzled. The Captain took the initiative to explain: "Tanxia is the Creator God in Hengfeng's local mythology..."
"Oh..." Li Yu suddenly realized. Looking at the Hengfeng Citizens around him with the light of hope in their eyes, he firmly shook his head: "I'm not very familiar with him."
Heavy sighs rose one after another, and the radiance on these people's faces dimd at a visible speed.
In such frontier Star Systems, the sense of Return Star's rule was extrely weak, and their Interstellar integration was severely insufficient. They were also the favorite places for Evil Gods and Interstellar terrorists to visit.
The Ship-Breaking Squad was used to this and didn't care too much.
The Captain introduced himself as Klami, slightly older than Li Yu. He was a C-Grade Gene Evolution Body who had respectively fused the Gene Chains of a Giant Soldier Ant, a Wind Mantis, an Ironclad Lion, and an Earth-Walking Dragon.
He didn't have any elent-controlling Gene Chains; they were all highly cost-effective Gene Chains that could bring all-around enhancents in Strength, defense, and speed.
"Where is the resistance Base? Why can't I contact the Fourteenth Patrol Fleet?" Li Yu inquired. When they descended near the Hengfeng System, they started contacting the Fourteenth Patrol Fleet, but the result was that they couldn't get through.
Klami explained: "Long-distance communication is isolated by the Evil God. We changed our communication thod and built an internal communication network on Planet Abundant Star. We can only be contacted through specific communication channels."
Li Yu nodded: "In that case, then take to the resistance Base..."
"Okay, but this group of survivors still needs to be taken away..." Klami looked around, then asked sowhat cautiously: "You didn't co alone, did you..."
"Of course not..." Li Yu shook his head and began to contact Hunter, telling him to descend from the Outer Space Layer.
Rumble––
Wind pressure suddenly descended, blowing the dust into chaos, with sand and stones flying.
Shadows appeared on the Ground, and then the shadows rapidly expanded.
Dozens of warships gradually descended, their massive sizes blotting out the sky and covering the sun, looking extrely spectacular. However, the Ship-Breaking Squad mbers were inherently mbers of the Patrol Fleet, so naturally, they wouldn't be shocked by such a thing.
"It's the teor Fleet!" a Squad mber shouted loudly, instantly recognizing the Emblem on the side of the warships.
"It's actually the teor Fleet..."
The Squad mbers' expressions varied, Looking at Each Other in Dismay. They seed to want to say sothing but didn't say it out loud.
Klami's expression also showed so hesitation: "What you brought is... the teor Fleet?"
"Yes... what's wrong." Feeling the strange atmosphere, Li Yu inquired.
"N-nothing..." Klami shook his head and didn't explain. Li Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and didn't press the matter.
"Destroy the corpses and evacuate quickly. If we stay too long, I'm afraid it will attract attacks from the watchers." Klami shouted, calling for the Squad mbers to start burning the large swathes of corpses with thermal Fire and begin evacuating.
The crowd of survivors boarded the fleet in an orderly manner and quickly left the area. Li Yu also secretly controlled a Squad mber through a 【Sound Seed】 and learned why these people's attitude towards the teor Fleet was so strange.
It was because the matter of the teor Fleet's deputy commanders forcing the Sixth Patrol Fleet's Commander––Thomas, to apologize was widely publicized by Thomas within the Patrol Fleet.
The conflict between the Patrol Fleet and nad fleets had accumulated for many years, and they inherently disliked each other. This was simply adding fuel to the fire.
However, who told the teor Fleet to have an outstanding combat record in Erdos? Moreover, their provisional commander Died, making it hard for the Patrol Fleet to launch an attack, so they could only silently suffer the grievance.
But the teor Fleet was considered flagged within the Patrol Fleet, placed on a blacklist, and was very unpopular.
And essentially, this matter was caused by Li Yu, which also made him sowhat Speechless.
"The Quantum Communication channels are under Disruption; we have already lost conventional contact with Return Star." Hunter said in a low voice. He wasn't surprised by this either:
"This is a common tactic of Evil Gods, using divine power to interfere with long-distance communication. If you want to communicate, you can only go to Outer Space."
Li Yu had already learned about this through Klami, so he wasn't surprised and indicated he understood.
Following Klami's navigation, the teor Fleet began heading towards the resistance Base.
On the way, Klami roughly introduced the current situation to Li Yu.
Planet Eternal Distance had completely fallen, and Planet Abundant Star was almost there too. The thods of these Evil God Cultists were fast, accurate, and ruthless: infecting ordinary people, corrupting corpses... This set of procedures seed like it had been done countless tis.
"...The Fourteenth Patrol Fleet originally landed on Planet Eternal Distance, intending to directly solve the problem, but they encountered an ambush, resulting in heavy casualties. Under compelling circumstances, they retreated to Planet Abundant Star... requesting reinforcents..."
Klami clenched his fists, so sorrow in his words.
Every Patrol Fleet had its own designated patrol Star Sector. The Fourteenth Patrol Fleet was responsible for a large Star Sector including the Hengfeng System.
Other Patrol Fleets had their own territories to patrol and found it difficult to rush over to provide support; they could only transfer personnel from the Central Star System.
According to what Klami privately revealed, them saving these ordinary people wasn't just for the sake of protection. Rohan could perform Flesh and Blood Transformation to turn them into various monsters.
Even already dead corpses were no exception. That's why when they evacuated just now, they had to destroy the corpses.
And saving these people was weakening the enemy.
.........
Provisional Commander Base. Located deep Underground, this was originally an air-raid shelter, rapidly expanded.
Various alloy cables crisscrossed. The crude Cave was filled with numb-looking survivors. It was large enough to accommodate tens of millions of people living here. And there were dozens more Underground air-raid shelters like this across the entire Planet Abundant Star.
The Commander of the Fourteenth Patrol Fleet––Hannes Kirk, was rubbing his brow, a white cloth bandage wrapped around his right arm.
Scarlet-black blood continuously dripped into a basin on the tal floor, emitting a putrid sll.
"The ssage requesting reinforcents was sent ten days ago; why hasn't the support arrived yet." Opposite him was the Archon of the Hengfeng System, Ted. He looked very young, but in reality, he was already in his forties.
However, within the Archon hierarchy, he could still be considered young.
Hannes's face was slightly pale, his forehead covered in sweat, his eyes sunken, his lower eyelids slightly everted, and purplish-red bloodshot veins covered his eyes, looking extrely exhausted.
For an A-Tier Lifeform, this was an extrely rare occurrence.
"Don't worry... cough cough..." Before Hannes could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Ted, whose face was anxious:
"How can I not be anxious? According to the data you provided, the Blood Sacrifice will start soon, and we will all die here!"
Hannes's face showed displeasure. Just as he was about to speak, the Smart Terminal on his arm vibrated slightly. He looked up and glanced at it, involuntarily showing a hint of joy.
"Support has arrived..." But right after these words were spoken, Hannes's face suddenly sank again.
"Support has arrived, that's great!" Ted clenched his fists, his expression also looking very excited.
"Shut up!" Hannes suddenly shouted coldly, leaving Archon Ted stunned in place, not knowing what happened.
Facing the Furious Hannes, Archon Ted subconsciously wanted to retort, but suddenly rembering the other party's god-like performance back then, he imdiately felt a bit resentful.
"The support is the teor Fleet!" Hannes gritted his teeth sowhat.
"teor Fleet? Since it's a nad fleet..." Archon Ted said subconsciously.
A nad fleet was far stronger than a Patrol Fleet; this was a consensus.
"Idiot!" Hannes couldn't help but curse: "Have you not been paying attention to the Erdos Incident so ti ago?"
"The teor Fleet was beaten to a pulp, the rest are just so small fry, how could they have the capability to provide support!"
Even if there was a grudge against the teor Fleet, in the face of life and death, there was nothing that couldn't be let go.
But the problem was that the teor Fleet was no longer capable! The Commander was dead, the Main Ship exploded, and a fifth of the fleet's size was wiped out.
What kind of damn Strength did they still have!
"Erdos Incident?" Ted was sowhat stunned. When the Erdos Incident started, the Evil God had already begun invading the Hengfeng System. He was overwheld with work and really didn't pay much attention.
However, after hearing Hannes's words now, he also understood; this fleet seed to be crippled.
"Is it possible that the teor Fleet has already completed reorganization?" He clung to the last sliver of hope.
"Reorganization?" Hannes sneered: "The Erdos Incident happened less than a month ago. Even if completely reorganized, how much combat power do you think they have?"
"Which warship hasn't gone through thousands of tempering? Even if reorganization is complete, is there a difference from being crippled?"
"What's more, my Subordinate told they haven't reorganized at all."
"Then... why did the High Echelon send them over for support." Ted found it sowhat unbelievable; could it be that Return Star abandoned them?
"Because... this Commander..." Hannes looked like he had seen through everything. His Smart Terminal projected Li Yu's Virtual projection.
"This person... looks a bit familiar..." Archon Ted stared at Li Yu. A mont later, he rembered: "...It's Li Yu, that recipient of the Golden Cross dal?"
Hannes: "..."
You don't know about the Erdos Incident, but you know Li Yu clearly.
After all, when the Golden Cross dal was awarded, nothing was happening in the Hengfeng System, so he had plenty of free ti.
"That's right, it's him..." He was expressionless. As a Patrol Fleet Commander, he knew more inside information.
For example, Vimala extrely disliked Li Yu. In the last Erdos Incident, he was sent to act as bait. Who knew this guy actually didn't die.
Perhaps... this ti... it was also to send him to die, only that more people were needed to be buried with him.
Ted slumped back into his chair, his eyes devoid of life. He still had a bright future ahead, even a chance to enter the Return Star's Deliberative Council hall to vie for power.
However, now it seed everything was an illusion.
Hannes snorted coldly inwardly. As an A-Tier Lifeform and the overall Commander of the Patrol Fleet, it wasn't that he lacked the ability to escape.
However, before the situation completely collapsed, he couldn't leave, otherwise he would face a military tribunal.
"Is... is he... an A-Tier Lifeform!?" Archon Ted suddenly looked up as if rembering sothing, and said excitedly.
Hannes nodded indifferently: "Yes... after returning from Erdos, he beca an A-Tier Lifeform through Military channels."
"You are both A-Tier Lifeforms. If you join hands, is there a chance..." His eyes held hope.
"He just beca an A-Tier Lifeform and doesn't have much combat power at all. Even if those massive numbers of Converted Blood Beasts stood still and let him kill them, they could exhaust him to death."
"He... just ca to die..."
The light in Archon Ted's eyes completely dimd, as if all his bones had been pulled out, and he slumped in his chair.
Hannes sat in his chair, his right arm trembling slightly. When saying Li Yu's Strength wasn't enough, he seed to forget that he himself was also heavily injured.
