Beyele groggily opened his eyes. What entered his sight was a tal ceiling, its special suppression patterns full of an untad industrial charm.
His mind vaguely recalled the previous situation. The last scene before he lost consciousness was a purple fist smashing towards him.
He could feel his body's wounds oozing fresh blood.
It turned into several winding crimson snakes on the tal Ground, pooling into a puddle of blood.
He was forced to lie on the Ground, covered in cuts and bruises, covered in blood and filth.
Beneath him was a huge chanical backboard, glowing with a faint blue light, slowly rising accompanied by the sound of gears turning.
His hands, feet, and torso were clamped by black Heavy Alloy Rings. These were so kind of specially made chanical shackles, accompanied by an extrely strong Energy interference force field, suppressing his power.
At the sa ti, a tube extended from the chanical backboard and inserted into his spine, injecting a Potion.
It interfered with his cell activity internally and disrupted his nerves, affecting his body control.
Beyele's Strength was not low. Being able to serve as Marc's confidant, he possessed the powerful combat power of the A4 Level, already surpassing ninety-nine percent of the lifeforms in the Interstellar.
Using this thod to imprison him wasn't making a mountain out of a molehill.
As the chanical backboard rose, his gaze gradually saw the surroundings. This was a Laboratory, and a chanical Arm nearby was using so special instrunt to scan his entire body.
And not far away was exactly the Dragon Lord's figure. Currently, his back was facing him, looking up at the data on the screen.
"The illustriously renowned Dragon Lord actually specially ambushed a minor figure like , it truly makes feel honored." Beyele's tone was full of sarcasm.
Under the current circumstances, it was nothing more than death. The other party couldn't possibly let him go either; he didn't have such fanciful thoughts.
"As Marc's confidant, you still have so value, you're not a minor figure." Li Yu shook his head.
"Haha, stop your wishful thinking, I will absolutely never betray the Leader!" Beyele shouted angrily. "My Bados has gone through untold hardships and dangers to reach our current position, we will absolutely not be annihilated by you!"
For this kind of clan-style civilization, the vast majority of people in their race had a natural loyalty towards their Leader.
People like Beyele, who had followed Marc all year round, were even more so.
"You misunderstood, I didn't ask you to betray Marc, I'm even preparing to give Marc a great gift." Li Yu turned around, revealing a genial smile.
Right at this mont, Claptrap's voice sounded in the room: "Master, the target's body data has finished scanning, you can proceed with mimicry. I will provide reminders on the side."
"Okay." Li Yu nodded. Imdiately, under Beyele's angry gaze, his body underwent changes. His ears gradually beca long and pointed, a circle of ripples appeared in his pupils, and his skin also turned blue-purple.
Most crucially, his right hand turned crimson, which made Beyele's pupils constrict.
A crimson right hand, this was the symbol of his race. The Bados race was born with the ability to control Telekinesis, and the ripples in their pupils were its physical manifestation.
And soone like Beyele was even more special. When he traveled the Interstellar in his youth, he once set foot in a certain ancient Civilization Ruins.
He obtained a tube of special Genetic Serum, which caused his right hand to mutate, gaining a special Superpower that could change shape at will, and contained a destructive Energy.
This made him rise to fa and forge the title of Mad Butcher.
"Master, raise the height by another 1.65 centiters, move the ear position back by 0.3 centiters, the third ripple in the pupil, move it towards the center by 0.5mm..."
Under Claptrap's reminders, Li Yu's appearance underwent fine-tuning.
"You want to turn into my appearance and approach the Leader!?" Beyele guessed Li Yu's idea and imdiately sneered: "Simply fanciful thinking, it's impossible for the Leader not to see through it!"
A person's appearance was easy, but their inner Aura, behavioral habits, and ntal Fluctuation were all very difficult to simulate unless one used a special Superpower.
But Li Yu now clearly only used a simple mimicry appearance. He hadn't even learned his behavioral habits; soone familiar with him could tell it was fake at a glance.
Li Yu didn't pay attention to him, only constantly fine-tuning. This was ticulous work, taking him nearly three hours before he thoroughly matched Beyele in terms of data.
"It's useless, you are having wishful thinking!" Beyele was still shouting angrily loudly.
But the unease in his heart also beca increasingly obvious. It was impossible for Li Yu not to think of the problems he could think of, yet he still chose to do so.
The only possibility was that he had a way to deceive Marc.
This made Beyele's inner emotions boil. If he caused irreparable damage to the Leader because of his capture...
This would make him suffer even more than killing him directly.
Right at this mont, the chanical Door in the Laboratory opened. Hunter walked in and saw two Beyeles, instantly stunned.
But a mont later he reacted and stared at Li Yu, saying: "There is a reply from the Star Glory Empire side. Their fleet has already arrived at the designated position."
"Led by the Nabus Serpentine Legion, there are also seven Radiant Star-grade Fleets, sixteen Starlight Fleets... the total scale of the fleet has reached over five million..."
"So little, only one Legion?" Li Yu was stunned, sowhat dissatisfied.
No wonder when he asked Loyd earlier, this Old Fellow was hemming and hawing. It turned out the fleet scale was too small and he was embarrassed to say it.
"Is this little?" Hunter was stunned. After all, the [Augustus] fleet he had been proud of before was only a Radiant Star-grade Fleet.
But he imdiately reacted. Based on Li Yu's current volu and the scale of the battlefield about to unfold, this number was indeed sowhat small.
"Forget it, the Star Glory Empire being so stingy just happens to make feel less guilty." Li Yu muttered, then said to Hunter: "Next, I will disappear for a period of ti. If Loyd looks for , just say I am in a Secluded retreat researching a Weapon to deal with the Abyss Institute."
"Okay." Hunter nodded. Li Yu was often secretive, he was already used to it.
Imdiately, he activated the instrunt, and the flow rate of the liquid in the tube inserted into Beyele's spine accelerated.
Beyele, who was still cursing angrily, gradually lost consciousness and fell into a coma.
.........
Bados Civilization Howorld. Marc was anxious inwardly; he knew he was about to face a war.
But when exactly would this war arrive? What was the scale of the enemy's Strength? Where would the attack begin?
He knew nothing about this, like a slap about to fall on his Buttocks, making him wait in the darkness for the pain to descend.
This kind of torture was far more intense than actual pain.
However, right at this mont, the Smart Terminal on his arm vibrated slightly.
He looked down, his pupils instantly constricting, and he couldn't help but abruptly stand up, his eyes bursting with a fiery color.
"Excellent!"
He hurriedly walked out of the Office and intercepted his confidant subordinate who was rushing over in the tal Corridor——Beyele.
"Did you really find out the position of the Star Glory Empire's fleet!?"
His expression was quite excited. This was extrely rare for the ruler of a civilization, but under the current circumstances, he couldn't help but be excited.
"Yes, Leader..." Beyele lowered his head and said: "I have an old acquaintance within the Star Glory Empire Internal Affairs. At so cost, I confird the position and scale of the Star Glory Empire's fleet."
"I have already verified that there are indeed so small patrol ships near that area. I didn't get close to avoid Alert The Enemy."
While speaking, Beyele opened his own Smart Terminal and brought up a few pictures and data materials.
"Excellent!" Marc patted Beyele heavily on the shoulder: "You did very well."
As expected of his confidant, his work efficiency was indeed high.
Although the Beyele in front of him made him feel sowhat weird, due to the influence of a special power, this weird feeling was tossed to the back of his mind in the blink of an eye.
He instead started to confirm the specific information of the intelligence.
"Nabus Serpentine Legion, this is just a normal Colonial Legion. The Star Glory Empire actually wants to use them as the spearhead to launch an attack on us?"
Marc revealed a slightly puzzled expression. He also felt that the power mobilized by the Star Glory Empire was sowhat weak.
A Colonial Legion, and not even a top-tier Colonial Legion like the Troll Legion, just a normal Legion with a not-so-great reputation.
Even with the assistance of other fleets, relying solely on this power, let alone starting a war with the Forerunners, even taking down the Bados Civilization would be sowhat difficult.
Could it be that the main offensive force is the Other-Dinsional Camp?
Marc pondered. Compared to the Star Glory Empire, it was even more impossible to find any trace of the mysterious Other-Dinsional Camp.
"Forget it, since we found the Star Glory Empire's fleet, let's make them the first target." Marc's eyes condensed slightly. He wasn't an Indecisive person. Since the other party had already laid out their forces, he wouldn't just wait to be captured.
"Mobilize the fleet, Beyele, co with to wipe out this fleet!"
Beyele, who was Li Yu who had sneaked in using [Black Widow], felt his heart jump slightly upon hearing this. Motherfucker, I threw out this bait of the Star Glory Empire, not for you to take the hook.
"Leader, I have a suggestion." He spoke up.
"Oh?" Marc's expression paused, looking at Beyele.
"I heard that the main target of Li Yu and the Star Glory Empire joining forces this ti isn't us." He said in a low voice.
Marc frowned slightly. He had always been deeply taboo about the existence of the Forerunners and was unwilling for his subordinates to discuss this matter.
But since Beyele had just made a great contribution, he couldn't harshly reprimand him too much, so he said indifferently: "And so..."
"Since they aren't making us the main target, then why should we act as the main force? At the very least, we can't let so people watch from the sidelines, right?"
Beyele's habitual tone made Marc sowhat unaccustod, but he didn't care, his expression changing slightly instead.
Indeed, the other party's main target is the Forerunners, they are just a bonus.
Now that they have discovered the traces of the Star Glory Empire's fleet, if the Bados Civilization eagerly went up to ambush them, and the Forerunners didn't want to fight and directly pulled out and left, wouldn't they be Stuck.
The cooperation between the two was originally an exchange of interests. Although the rise of the Bados Civilization relied on the other party, Marc had never relaxed his vigilance against the Forerunners.
To ambush the Star Glory Empire's fleet, they must drag the Forerunners into it!
Beyele's words gave him a reminder. Since the war is already preparing to start, the Forerunners can no longer sit by and watch.
If they are unwilling to join this battle, then Marc wouldn't mind directly switching sides!
Thinking of this, Marc's face softened, and he said to Beyele: "Your reminder is very good. My ntality has been sowhat impetuous recently, I almost didn't notice."
Marc wasn't a Tyrant, but rather treated his subordinates well and was willing to accept different opinions, otherwise it would be impossible for Beyele to be so loyal.
"It's all the fault of that hateful Dragon Lord and the Star Glory Empire." Li Yu echoed a few sentences.
"Mm, I will handle this matter. When the ti cos, I will still let you lead the team, don't let down!" Marc's tone contained deep expectations.
Li Yu was sowhat Speechless. His expression serious, he nodded heavily.
This was his true plan. It was completely different from what he discussed with Loyd before; that was all nonsense, he couldn't even be bothered to recall those so-called "plans" in his mind.
The key to this war lay in confirming the location of the Forerunners' Base within the Bados Civilization.
If they didn't know this point, it would be useless no matter how many thods Li Yu had.
But this guy Marc was quite cautious. He had always contacted the Forerunners alone, and the High Echelon of his Ethnic Group didn't even know the na of the faction behind them.
Therefore, Li Yu ca up with this plan, bringing Loyd to Marc's door to intimidate him and make him fall into a panic.
Afterwards, he would inevitably take a series of actions, and gathering intelligence was one of them.
As long as he had the Star Glory Empire's people keep an eye on his few confidant subordinates, then Li Yu could directly make a move and take their place.
Then it was taking the Star Glory Empire's fleet coordinates and delivering the bait to the door.
If he couldn't find the Forerunners' Base, he could only make the Forerunners co out of the Base.
The only place where it almost went wrong was that Marc was actually preparing to personally ambush the Star Glory Empire's fleet.
Fortunately, this guy was still open to persuasion and was convinced by him.
Next was waiting for Marc to notify the Forerunners, and then attack the Star Glory Empire's fleet.
As for the Imperial Fleet serving as bait, he could only say sorry.
Actually, the most perfect action plan for this sche should be to notify the Star Glory Empire's fleet in advance, and then fight a counter-ambush.
But the problem now was not that Li Yu was unwilling to notify the Star Glory Empire.
Rather, it was that the power mobilized by the Star Glory Empire was truly too weak; it was impossible to fight any counter-ambush.
Nabus Serpentine Legion?
Li Yu hadn't even heard of this Legion before, it was too absurd. His eyes flickered slightly:
"Loyd, are you ready to receive this surprise..."
