A touch of profound blue light lit up in his palm, turning into a vortex. Inside the vortex, the whale core tumbled continuously, but was bound and compressed by so kind of power, maintaining its Crystal shape.
"Lord, the uses of the whale core are very great. Many chambers of comrce are willing to purchase it at a high price. Not only can it substantially increase the Gene Chain Developnt Progress, but it can also prolong lifespan," Anthony introduced.
Elise secretly glanced at Anthony. Fck... got beaten to the punch by this old snake.*
Li Yu was Noncommittal. After casually washing its surface, he swallowed it directly.
This left everyone dumbfounded. Carol couldn't help but say: "This is my first ti seeing soone swallow a whale core raw."
"Even novice scavengers who just entered the business know that this kind of thing needs to be combined with various materials to exert its maximum effect."
"Ignorant!" Stanley berated: "How dare you use that lowly Identity to compare with the Lord?"
As the whale core entered his mouth, an extrely cold shudder erupted from his mouth, instantly sweeping through his entire body, as if even his soul was frozen.
Li Yu's perception of his body had long touched the microscopic level. Under the scouring of this high-purity Life Energy, his Cells slowly strengthened, and his Gene Chain changed once again.
The Life Energy added by the whale core couldn't just enhance his physique and take his recovery ability to the next level, but could also prolong his lifespan. After all, the Starry Sky Whale was a representative of longevity.
Opening his gene detection device, his current Gene Chain Developnt Progress had reached 51%, only increasing by about 1%, which disappointed Li Yu sowhat.
If this were to spread, it would probably make a large group of A-Tier Lifeforms green with envy. Even with untold hardships recently, they might not necessarily be able to increase it by 1%, yet Li Yu was still dissatisfied here.
Starry Sky Whales were not easy to encounter in the Ancient Starpath either. If one was unlucky enough to encounter an old Starry Sky Whale, they could just wait for death.
Not long after swallowing the whale core, the confiscated Smart Terminal belonging to Anthony rang incessantly.
Stanley picked up the Smart Terminal. What was displayed on it was a string of garbled code; it was unknown who it was.
"Co over and see who is communicating with you?" Stanley said to Anthony.
Anthony cautiously walked over and took a glance. His expression changed slightly as he said: "It's the contact person from Grey Snake."
"People from Grey Snake?" Stanley frowned, looking at this old snake sowhat grimly: "Why would they suddenly communicate with you? Did you secretly use so tricks?"
"This old snake was previously famous for being cunning. You must not relax your guard against him," Elise reminded.
Anthony subconsciously and rapidly flicked his snake-like tongue. This was his subconscious reaction under extre uneasiness. Damn Elise... I'll rember you!
"Let him connect." Li Yu waved his hand. Only then did Anthony breathe a sigh of relief. Picking up the Smart Terminal, he began to answer.
"Lant Hub, B-rank Intelligence Officer—Anthony Snake-Core, you are now temporarily promoted to A-rank Intelligence Officer." An unpleasant voice ca from the communication, causing Anthony's Snake pupils to shrink.
If it were normally when he heard this news, he would definitely be extrely excited. However, under the current circumstances, he couldn't get excited in the slightest.
He could only force himself to raise his voice to appear relatively happy: "Thank you for the organization's cultivation."
"There is a major client who wants to purchase clues about that Ancient Starpath fleet from before. You are responsible for interfacing with him." Subsequently, the contact person stated the requirent.
The organizational structure of Grey Snake wasn't rigorous, or rather, their tolerance towards peripheral intelligence personnel was extrely high. This couldn't be helped either.
The Universe was too massive. The intelligence personnel scattered across various Star Systems managed themselves. Apart from exchanging benefits, there were basically no thods to control them.
Like Anthony, if he wanted to obtain intelligence from Grey Snake, he also needed to pay a price; at most, they would give him a discount.
And if Grey Snake wanted to obtain intelligence from him, they similarly needed to pay benefits.
Anthony involuntarily looked at Li Yu, waiting for his decision.
Soone wants to purchase the ditation Fleet's information? A lot of candidates flashed through Li Yu's mind subconsciously. At the sa ti, a subtle idea also surfaced.
Li Yu nodded, signaling Anthony that he could accept this order.
Only then did Anthony reply: "No problem."
"He will contact you later. The intelligence on that fleet is tentatively classified as A-rank. If there are new clues, report them in ti for re-evaluation," the contact person instructed.
Every piece of intelligence was classified in detail by the Grey Snake organization according to its value and impact. To obtain these pieces of intelligence, one needed to pay the corresponding price.
After Anthony hung up the communication, he looked humbly at Li Yu: "Lord, what should I do?"
"Answer truthfully. There is no need to deceive them. I am also quite curious about the Strength of that fleet," Li Yu pointed out.
Anthony imdiately understood Li Yu's hint and said softly: "Rest assured, I will definitely handle it properly."
A sense of urgency abruptly arose in Elise's heart. Anthony had already demonstrated his value. In a short period of ti, he probably wouldn't be in danger of losing his life.
But what about her? The beauty she took pride in was completely useless to Li Yu.
Should I... she looked at Carol in front of the porthole. Under the other party's nonchalant expression, she dispelled the idea of an alliance.
That Idiot Carol was always reckless and didn't care much about his own life. If she secretly allied with him, she might be implicated and die.
While Elise was thinking, Anthony's Smart Terminal rang again. This was a connection not stored in Anthony's contacts.
Anthony flicked his snake-like tongue and chose to answer.
"Grey Snake's intelligence officer?" The other party's voice was rough, carrying a hint of arrogance and questioning.
Hearing this voice, Li Yu's expression suddenly beca sowhat strange. Isn't this fcking Donovan?* The voice of that Four-Ard Titan was highly recognizable.
"Yes, how may I address Your Excellency?" Anthony probed.
"Since when does Grey Snake need to inquire about a client's Identity?" he questioned bluntly.
"I an, how should I address you in the ensuing conversation," Anthony readily accepted good advice, just trying to think of an Excuse.
"Hmph..." Donovan reluctantly accepted this Excuse: "Address however you want. You discovered an unknown fleet in the Ancient Starpath a while ago, right?"
He got straight to the point, too lazy to say more.
"Yes, Your Excellency. To be precise... they are not unknown," Anthony answered under Li Yu's guidance.
"Oh?" Donovan was sowhat surprised, hearing Anthony's hint. Subsequently, he grew suspicious: "But that's not what you Grey Snake people said."
"I also just obtained the intelligence. That black fleet cos from the ditation Research Institute," Anthony finally spoke out.
"It's them..." Donovan was clearly not surprised by this.
They were currently purchasing intelligence to figure out exactly what factions were currently in the Ancient Starpath in order to prepare counterasures.
No matter what faction appeared in the Ancient Starpath, they wouldn't feel surprised, except for the Radiant Council.
"Do you know their specific actions?" Donovan pressed.
Looking at the instructions, Anthony repeated: "I am currently tracking them and should know very soon."
"Tracking the ditation Fleet... you don't seem like a simple intelligence officer..." Donovan said with deep aning.
"Does the client also want to inquire about the intelligence officer's Identity now?" Anthony returned the words Donovan had said not long ago to him.
"Haha..."
Amidst loud laughter, Donovan hung up the communication.
Anthony breathed another sigh of relief and relaxed slightly. He already vaguely felt that the storm sweeping the Ancient Starpath seed to be coming.
And this Masked Man in front of him was the Eye of the Storm. Perhaps in this storm, there was also the figure of himself adding fuel to the flas.
However, he didn't care about this now; he only wanted to survive.
"Good job..." Li Yu casually praised. Anthony imdiately expressed: "To be able to serve you is my honor."
.........
Ten days later, the Malygos Dragonbone was one of the Navigational Beacons of the entire Ancient Starpath.
The entire Ancient Starpath was unpredictable. Many uninhabited Life Planets would inexplicably appear, and then be ground to dust under various major Cosmic Calamities.
However, there were a few places like this that always existed. No matter what kind of Cosmic Calamity, it was powerless against them.
That was what was commonly known as a Navigational Beacon within the Ancient Starpath. The Malygos Dragonbone was precisely such a place.
It was the skeleton left behind after a Malygos Dragon died. Malygos Dragons were extrely rare in the entire Universe.
The last ti there was a news report of soone encountering a Malygos Dragon was already over one thousand three hundred years ago.
It was an extrely powerful dragon species with horrifying Strength. It was said that the Void Dragon Breath in its mouth could easily destroy a Life Planet.
The dragon bones stretched for hundreds of thousands of kiloters. The skull alone was as massive as an ordinary Life Planet.
Logically speaking, the skeleton of a creature of this level was also an excellent forging material.
However, several Research Institutes had surveyed this place, but eventually left shaking their heads.
Because research found that the essence within it had already been completely lost. Moreover, being located inside the Ancient Starpath, the difficulty of developnt was too great.
They would always encounter various Cosmic Calamities, which led to no one being willing to touch this thing.
On the massive skull, over five thousand warships were docked here. Various concealing devices were deployed around them to avoid being discovered.
Dass was reporting the situation in the Command Center: "We followed the clues left by the Hermit Squad to several places, but gained nothing."
In front of him were the figures of three people wearing black Combat Suits. The one leading was a woman. The tight Combat Suit outlined her hot figure, and her glamorous appearance made people reluctant to look away.
It was precisely the commander of Blood Rose—Koya!
"Doing things in the Ancient Starpath is really too troubleso. There are all kinds of situations to worry about, and Cosmic Calamities that appear from ti to ti," Soli complained.
The treacherousness of the Ancient Starpath was well known. Perhaps this was also the reason why the Hermit Squad chose to hide here when facing pursuit.
"Hehe..." Koya chuckled twice: "Your Excellency Soli, looking for Excuses is not sothing a commander should do."
Soli really wanted to retort, but looking at Koya's exquisite face and lively eyes, his old face couldn't help but turn red, and the words of rebuttal wouldn't co out.
Dass looked at his Old Brother like this and couldn't help but complain inwardly. He shook his head and said: "Commander Koya, it's good that you're here. Otherwise, we really wouldn't know what to do next."
Dass gently passed the buck to Koya. Under the current situation, they had already sunk into a quagmire. As ti passed, many factions that received the news were dispatching troops here.
Plus, they really couldn't find the Hermit Squad, which made Dass's pressure multiply. He didn't want to be the commander anymore, otherwise, the one taking the bla would definitely be him.
Koya didn't reply, but instead asked: "I heard you lost Li Yu's traces."
Suddenly ntioning this na made both Dass and Soli sowhat Bewildered.
"Does Li Yu have anything to do with this?" Dass frowned and asked.
"It's nothing. I'm just casually asking," Koya smiled charmingly, leaving them sowhat Bewildered.
"Since that's the case..." Just as Dass was preparing to speak, suddenly, a frantic alarm rang out in the Command Center:
"Detected unknown warships approaching, massive scale!"
"Detected unknown warships approaching, massive scale!"
Everyone's expression changed drastically. Due to the internal influence of the Ancient Starpath, their Detection Devices were compressed to an extrely close distance.
This ant that the unknown fleet was already extrely close to them.
Sure enough, the next mont... the Void near the Malygos Dragonbone began to distort, and a massive number of black fleets appeared here.
And the alarm in the Combat Command Center also changed accordingly.
"Warning, warning, High-Energy Reaction detected, please evade in advance!"
Countless points of light suddenly lit up in the Void. Imdiately after, countless high-energy Particle Cannons rapidly approached the coalition forces in an instant.
They scraped past the Shields of the spaceships and disappeared into the distance. A few spaceships that didn't have ti to evade were hit, their Shields exploding and flickering unsteadily.
"How decisive, opening fire the mont we et." Koya's eyes focused.
Fortunately, although their fleet was in a docked state, due to the special circumstances of the Ancient Starpath, they didn't turn off the Energy supply.
The Particle Cannons bombarded the warship barriers, sending out ripples that illuminated this section of the Void.
............
In Elise's spaceship, Anthony, who was attempting to connect various clues, suddenly heard the Masked Man's order.
"Set sail, head to the Malygos Dragonbone!"
The icy voice made him uncontrollably turn around and look at that cold mask. He considered it again and again, then gritted his teeth and said: "Lord, the region where the Void Dragonbone is located can already be considered the Core Region of this section of the Ancient Starpath; it is extrely dangerous. What are you going there for?"
"Watching a show..." The expression under Li Yu's mask was strange. He didn't expect the ditation Fleet to actually go and ambush Returning Star.
If following the original trajectory, which was Elise's future, the one who found the ditation Fleet right now would highly likely be him, and the one fighting the ditation Fleet should also be him.
Just by waiting a few days, the future he saw was changed.
"Why so much nonsense? Just go when the Lord tells you to go!" Stanley berated.
"Yes!" Anthony didn't dare to speak anymore, obediently piloting the spaceship to set sail.
