"This batch of Cipher Orbs is related to Gensokyo. The Empire values them very much, you must be careful." Glazed Star warned.
"Mhm..." Li Yu nodded, and subsequently added: "If you guys research anything, if it's convenient, please notify as much as possible."
After saying this, he paused and added: "But you must still prioritize your own safety."
Glazed Star nodded: "Rest assured, I understand."
After helping each other multiple tis, the relationship between the two was long no longer like purely transaction parties in the beginning.
And at this ti, an eerie voice ca from Glazed Star's side: "I wonder what thods you used on Glazed Star to make her notify you even at such great risk?"
"Who's talking?" Li Yu was sowhat surprised. He didn't expect that there was actually a third person beside Glazed Star when she contacted him.
And hearing this person's voice, why did it feel a bit familiar?
Glazed Star's face held a half-smile as she turned the Cara Lens, and this Dark Star soaking in green liquid ca into Li Yu's sight.
"Dark Star!"
Li Yu's eyes widened slightly, truly feeling astonished. He never expected to see Dark Star with Glazed Star.
This big brother had been missing for too long. If he hadn't deliberately tried to recall him, this na basically wouldn't have appeared in his mind.
"How did you end up in Glazed Star's hands, and so miserably?" The look Li Yu gave Glazed Star changed slightly.
"I didn't do it." Glazed Star shook her head: "Soone delivered him here, I don't know why."
"He was injected with multiple toxins and can no longer self-repair. His Gene Chain structure was also destroyed, causing him to be unable to resurrect remotely anymore."
"He could only be sent here to repair his body."
"Tsk tsk, it's truly extraordinarily miserable. My good big brother, who did you offend?" Li Yu teased.
As ti passed and circumstances changed, seeing Dark Star again felt different, especially such a miserable Dark Star.
"Don't be smug. I'm specially here to deal with you. You haven't forgotten that special thod you used on , right?" Dark Star said coldly:
"When you were weak, your Strength could be raised to be on par with mine. When I am weak..."
He paused. Facing Li Yu and saying he was weak seed a bit hard for him to say, so he could only change his phrasing.
"When you are stronger than , my Strength can instead be increased."
This thod had already been verified by Dark Star in the Ordos System.
"What?"
The nearby Glazed Star's face showed so astonishnt. There was such a thod?
She looked suspicious, staring at Dark Star. Could this forr superior be spouting nonsense?
How did this thod sound a bit outrageous no matter how you listened to it? The stronger the enemy, the stronger you get?
Li Yu's face didn't show much surprise. This was a historical legacy issue.
Who let his Strength at that ti completely pale in comparison to Dark Star's? In order to avoid being finished off by the old big brother, he could only use up the [Even Match].
Who could have predicted today's situation? This actually turned into Dark Star's capital against him.
However, he wasn't worried about this, because external combat power couldn't be affected by the [Even Match].
Just the [Infinity Gauntlet] alone could hamr Dark Star to death countless tis.
"Then I will await Big Brother's grand arrival." Li Yu looked at Dark Star and said indifferently.
"He's telling the truth?" Seeing Li Yu's reaction, Glazed Star finally dared to confirm that Dark Star's words seed to be true.
So, she looked at this forr superior of hers, and then at Li Yu on the screen: "Do you need to help you finish him off? The toxins in his body haven't been completely cleared yet. If I add a bit more stuff, I can totally kill him."
Hearing this, Dark Star's brow twitched violently. He had finally obtained a chance of survival with great difficulty. If he died by Glazed Star's hands, it would be too unworthy.
"Wait..." Dark Star shouted loudly!
"Does Big Brother still have words to say?" Li Yu looked at Dark Star, whose neck was stiffened.
"We can cooperate!" Dark Star said hurriedly.
"Oh?" Li Yu rubbed his chin, gaining so interest: "How to cooperate?"
Dark Star hurriedly said: "As long as they see my value in battle, they will definitely value ."
"My Status can also rise accordingly. At certain monts, it will play a crucial role."
Although Dark Star spoke euphemistically, that was his remaining self-esteem acting up. This thod actually completely treated him as a Pawn.
A Pawn that could play a role at critical monts.
Dark Star felt bitter in his heart. This wasn't for himself anyway.
If he wanted to Work Once, Rest Forever and free the person he cared about from endless days of running for their life, he didn't mind acting as Li Yu's Pawn.
Anyway, he was already used to being a Pawn.
"This..." Li Yu pondered slightly. It seed to really be quite feasible.
It was just that there was still one problem that needed to be resolved. He asked Glazed Star: "He knows the relationship between the two of us. Will this affect you?"
"Rest assured, I won't tell anyone else." Dark Star guaranteed.
But Li Yu ignored him and just looked at Glazed Star.
Glazed Star pondered slightly, shook her head and said: "It won't. There must be deeper reasons for him to fall to this point today."
"In my mory, Dark Star wasn't soone who would grovel to stay alive. If I ask soone to check slightly, I should be able to know the reason."
"This probably involves Your Excellency Dark Star's deepest secrets."
Although Glazed Star's words were peaceful, Dark Star felt a shudder run down his spine.
He felt inexplicably sad in his heart. What virtue or capability did he have to encounter these two bastards at the sa ti.
Li Yu guessed that Dark Star's past was probably another relatively lodramatic history. But who didn't have a bit of a story.
He didn't pay much attention to this. Since Glazed Star had no objections, he agreed to Dark Star's proposal.
An idle chess piece, who knows when it might be useful.
Mhm, this was what a big shot was, having a bunch of chess pieces in hand to use.
Li Yu chatted idly with Glazed Star for a while longer. As mbers of the Imperial Research Institute, they had independent Authority.
Their relationship with the Four-Ard Titan Legion fell into the category of cooperation, so they wouldn't be monitored. This was precisely where Glazed Star's confidence to contact Li Yu lay.
After hanging up the communication, Li Yu's eyes flickered. Dark Star's arrival here was sothing he hadn't expected.
And the information revealed by Glazed Star had also uncovered another layer of the veil surrounding the Gensokyo incident.
Ten minutes later, in the battleship Lounge, Max and a group of middle-ranking Military Officers were shouting loudly, their faces red and necks thick.
They gathered in a circle, tal Tables pushed together. Three black-backed turtles were moving slowly along the sa track at an extrely slow speed.
Although the speed of these three turtles was very slow, the many soldiers surrounding them were exceptionally excited, constantly cheering them on.
"The Commander is here!"
Soone shouted, and the originally noisy environnt instantly quieted down, leaving only Max still shouting.
However, because no one echoed him, his voice also gradually lowered.
"Commander!"
"..."
Many Military Officers stood at attention and saluted Li Yu one by one. Li Yu nodded.
Edwin, sitting in the corner, saw this scene and also stood up reluctantly, greeting Li Yu.
Compared to Max's heartlessness, he still felt sowhat disgusted by Li Yu using him as a Handle to threaten his father.
However, since it involved high-level political maneuvering, he didn't have much right to say anything.
With Li Yu here, the many Military Officers couldn't let loose. After staying for a while, they left one after another.
"Life here is still the most comfortable. Following Horus, we can't do anything." Max sat on the sofa.
Because all matters big and small in the Black Pupil Fleet were handled by Hunter, and Hunter and Horus's troop-leading philosophies were completely different.
The rules of the Black Pupil Fleet were far looser than Horus's.
"You Second-Generation Elites have no ambition at all." Li Yu pointed at him, feeling sowhat Hate Iron For Not Becoming Steel.
"Boss, the way you speak is getting more and more similar to my father." Max was sowhat Speechless: "I've already seen clearly, even if I work harder, could I possibly surpass you guys?"
Subsequently, he moved the three turtles back to the starting point and said casually: "Which one are you betting on?"
Li Yu raised an eyebrow, pondering for a mont. How could he play such a childish ga?
"The one on the left..."
Max grinned, and then looked at Edwin: "What about you?"
"Boring..." Edwin shook his head and closed his eyes.
Max didn't mind either, and then said: "Then I'll choose this one in the middle, the one on the right is yours."
As the partition opened, the three slow turtles began their race again.
"Oh right, my old man told not to go back, to just keep following you." Only after Max finished setting things up did he say this.
"Aren't you following right now?" Li Yu crossed his legs, staring at those three turtles.
Did this kid Max cheat? Why is the one in the middle so fast?
Edwin also opened his eyes, looking casually at those three turtles.
"But I always feel like there's a hidden aning in my old man's words." Max muttered.
"What were your dad's exact words?" Li Yu frowned tightly. It's actually a body length behind! Little turtle, can you put in so effort?
Edwin's eyes flickered. Although it couldn't compare to Max's, it was at least faster than Li Yu's. Not bad... not bad, this ga still has its rits.
Max pondered for a mont, then put on a straight face and said solemnly: "Brat! You don't need to co back in the future, just hang out with Li Yu. His power is overwhelming, you can at least have a sip of soup."
"If he fails, don't co looking for either."
Hearing this, Li Yu instantly had a feeling that Aisel seed to be hinting at sothing. Was it his illusion?
"My father ant the sa..." Edwin, who had been silent, spoke up. He seed to faintly feel Connor's intentions.
But the information known was truly too little, only so vague guesses.
Now, Li Yu could be certain that these two big shots were actually placing bets.
Did the forces gathered by Vimala already make them feel threatened too?
Or did they value the unwarranted power behind him?
"Then just follow . Anyway, I'm not short of two people eating free als." Li Yu said casually. Moreover, how could the big shots behind the two of them really not care about them.
This was an Ambiguous contact for both sides. From now on, these two people were officially considered to have joined his Camp.
"Boss, we're Top Students at least. How can you say we're eating free als." Max mumbled. Edwin raised an eyebrow, but didn't say anything.
F*ck, not only didn't it outrun Max's, it didn't even catch up to Edwin's. Is this turtle sick?
Li Yu's face darkened. Max's turtle had already run 2/3 of the distance, while his was a big step behind.
"There's another thing..." Max leaned in mysteriously: "Boss, do I have a Sister-in-Law?"
"Ah?" Hearing this sentence, Li Yu still hadn't reacted.
"What exactly is your relationship with Princess Klein?" He asked again.
"Why are you asking this?" Li Yu asked strangely.
Max chuckled and said: "If you don't have a spouse, and your relationship with Princess Klein isn't like the rumors, I do have a few suitable candidates here. Do you want to take a look?"
"Are you Pimping or acting as a Matchmaker? What do you an take a look?" Li Yu shook his head sowhat Speechlessly.
Max scratched his head and said: "Definitely acting as a Matchmaker. Prince Paul, General Easton, and quite a few high-ranking officials asked to ask."
Li Yu understood. His current Strength and Status were completely different. Although it was hard to integrate into Returning Star's core circle, it didn't hinder him from being a high-quality resource.
He was also single publicly. After multiple Evolutions, his appearance and temperant naturally went without saying. Therefore, it was also very Normal for so people to fancy him.
Moreover, Returning Star also didn't lack the intention of roping him in. If he left behind his own descendants, his relationship with Returning Star would be even closer.
Even with the Other-Dinsional Camp caught in the middle, Returning Star's wariness would also dissipate a lot.
Unfortunately, he himself didn't have such thoughts. He glanced at Max and said grumpily: "Solve your own problems first."
"My problem, no rush..." Max smiled very embarrassedly. Seeing Li Yu had no interest in talking more about this matter, he didn't delve into it.
Anyway, he had already ntioned this matter, which was enough to report back to those people.
"Wooohoo, co on! Co on!" Max suddenly stood up from the sofa, extrely excited.
His turtle was about to reach the finish line and beco the winner.
Li Yu was sowhat Speechless. This kind of race didn't even have any material rewards, was it worth being so excited?
He glanced at his own slow turtle again, pondering whether to drink a bowl of turtle soup.
However, right at this ti, the lights in the room suddenly turned into constantly flashing crimson red. The entire battleship suddenly trembled unceasingly, and all three turtles were thrown to the Ground.
And at this mont, the three of them could no longer be bothered with them.
"Warning, suffering from large-scale Energy Impact, detected Ultra-High Energy Level lifeform, please pay attention!"
