Li Yu went through so much trouble and expended a lot of effort for no apparent reason precisely for the cloak.
If he couldn't get the prize, he would be very angry.
Things like promises could be torn up at any ti.
Gosling naturally could break the contract imdiately, but Li Yu would let him know what despair was.
If the Third Forerunner could bring the crisis of Civilization's Demise to the Morton Civilization, then so could he.
Gosling obviously didn't have the brain-dead idea of tearing up the promise. Looking at Li Yu's eyes, he felt an inexplicable sense of fear, couldn't help but look away, and said:
"Please rest assured, I will definitely abide by the previous promise and give the cloak to you."
"That's good." Li Yu revealed a genial smile, causing the solemn atmosphere between the two to dissipate.
There were fine beads of sweat on Gosling's forehead. After saying a few words to Li Yu, he hurriedly left this room, saying he was going to fetch the item.
Li Yu sat back on the sofa. The Third Forerunner finishing the battle, regrouping his subordinates, and packing up would probably take a while before he could rush towards the Morton Civilization.
Moreover, after the battle ended, whether he still had a Spaceship to carry him forward was still a major problem.
The ti spent during this period probably wouldn't be short.
Although Loyd saying the cloak was in the Morton Civilization at that ti seed more like a manifestation of Shifting Bla under those circumstances.
But the Forerunners now definitely wouldn't let such a clue slip by.
That he would co to the Morton Civilization was already an ironclad fact.
With his mind wandering and various thoughts flying about, Li Yu allowed sparks of thought to collide in his mind.
He even imagined if executioners would suddenly rush out and chop him up later.
However, Gosling clearly hadn't gone crazy to this extent. After about half a day, Gosling hurriedly returned.
He carried a specially-made tal Box in his hand. The surface was black and extrely heavy; even Gosling carrying it was sowhat strenuous.
"So fast?" Li Yu was sowhat surprised physically. He shook slightly and took this tal Box from Gosling's hands.
He didn't place it on the Table. Sothing with such high density could easily crush the Table.
He let the Force hold it in the Void, and then slowly opened the box.
The tattered Red Cloak lay quietly inside. There were even quite a few holes on it, and the lower half seed to have been torn apart.
It was unknown what material it was made of. It didn't exude a majesty similar to the body armor, but instead was extrely calm.
"I used a spatial transmission channel to teleport it over as quickly as possible," Gosling explained in a low voice, then smiled bitterly:
"We have been keeping this thing, but have never dared to use it, afraid of attracting anyone's attention. We have been Trembling With Fear for many years."
"Giving it to you now can be considered as averting a disaster for us."
When they were powerful, the Thunder Battle Armor was their foundation.
When they were weak, this thing was their disaster.
Li Yu glanced at him, Noncommittal. He hadn't confird the authenticity of this thing yet.
Subsequently, he dug the body armor out from the inlay slot of the [Symbiotic Colonization Armor], and it appeared in his hand.
The mont it appeared, the tattered Red Cloak seed to feel so kind of calling, and tiny bolts of Thunder began to shoot out from it.
It moved without wind, slowly floating out from the box.
"The body armor of the Thunder Battle Armor is in your hands!?" Gosling's mind shook violently, and he retreated continuously, his eyes full of astonishnt.
The cloak flew out of the box, and its upper edge quickly attached to the back armor part of the body armor, fitting perfectly, as if they were one body.
Then, the two simultaneously erupted with a dazzling Lightning Glow, but it was forcibly contained within a small space by Li Yu and didn't completely erupt.
A cold self-test voice ca from the Thunder Battle Armor:
"System self-testing... Cloak component detected, linking... Link successful... Missing components... Main structure damaged... Only basic form deployed, Thunder Cosmos Form cannot be activated..."
"Please find the other components and repair the main structure as soon as possible..."
"Looks like it should be the real deal," Li Yu muttered a few words.
The cloak fluttered loudly. This thing definitely wasn't just for show; he just didn't know its specific function.
Trying it here wasn't very convenient, but he had a quicker thod.
He inlaid this thing back in, then put the [Symbiotic Colonization Armor] back into the System Space to check the description.
[Incomplete Thunder Battle Armor: As the second main component of the Titan Artifact, although it is severely damaged, it still possesses considerable power.
Additional Ability - Basic Form: The basic form of the Thunder Battle Armor significantly increases the user's combat tier, can resist high-intensity attacks, break through various confinents and blockades, and isolate the leakage of one's own Information State.]
Li Yu's eyes flickered. The cloak obviously leaned towards defense, increasing his combat power from another aspect.
Moreover, it could also isolate Information State leakage. This should be a defensive capability unique to Titan Artifacts.
During the era of the Titan Civilization, Information State attacks probably weren't a very difficult thod, so they could naturally defend against Information State attacks.
"This solves a problem for ," Li Yu was in a good mood. The Third Forerunner still caused him so pressure; after all, this kind of attack thod was formless and invisible.
He wouldn't even know when he was attacked.
Although with his current life tier, it was very difficult for the Third Forerunner to affect him from a long distance.
But the other party could also rely on external forces to increase his abilities, like relying on Titan Artifacts. Then it would be hard to say.
Moreover, his location could also be locked onto. Hunter and the others could stay in the Jade Void Palace and not go out, isolating this influence.
But he couldn't, and the cloak isolating the leakage of his own Information State directly eradicated this trouble.
"Pleasure cooperating with you," Li Yu said to Gosling. He had a very good impression of people who kept their promises.
Gosling had just recovered his senses. He didn't expect Li Yu to have actually obtained the body armor.
Could it be that the last surprise attack on the Bados Civilization wasn't entirely fruitless?
In this way, he had almost gathered all of it.
So thoughts surfaced in Gosling's mind, but were imdiately erased by him. No matter what, it didn't have much to do with him.
However, this situation gave him more certainty for his next words.
"Actually, we don't just possess the cloak," Gosling weighed his words.
"You still have the Helt!?" Li Yu's eyes instantly shot out a sharp glint.
If that was the case, fighting another defensive battle for the Morton Civilization wasn't impossible.
"Uh, we don't," Gosling hurriedly shook his head.
Li Yu was sowhat Speechless. Who taught you to speak with such a long pause?
The idea of a defensive battle for the Morton Civilization that had just popped up was also tossed into a corner by him.
Although the Morton Civilization was quite pitiful, there were plenty of civilizations in the Interstellar more pitiful than the Morton Civilization.
He couldn't possibly help every single one he saw. Since there was no Helt, then he could only say goodbye.
"But we indeed have so clues," Gosling added.
"We are very certain that the Helt flowed to The Council. You can look into a Divine Spirit nad the God of Inverse Thunder."
"The Council? God of Inverse Thunder?" Li Yu raised his eyebrows slightly. That group of Divine Spirits' territory?
He heard that recently their internal affairs had been treacherous and unpredictable, and a Divine War was about to break out. They had basically stopped external activities, and every Divine Spirit was in a state of anxiety.
He hadn't heard news from The Council for a while.
ntioning The Council, he also rembered Mo Duo, who had no news at all. Various images flashed through his mind before he looked at Gosling and said:
"For Mr. President to give such a crucial clue just like this, it indeed surprised sowhat."
"This clue is of no use to us anyway. Might as well give it to you as a smooth favor," Gosling said very modestly:
"Moreover, this is just a general area. The Council is completely different from normal interstellar civilizations. As far as we know, the God of Inverse Thunder also perished many years ago. The actual value of this clue isn't that great."
Although he said so, Li Yu knew this was enough to save him a lot of effort.
If he wanted to look for the Helt, at least he wouldn't waste ti on the entire Interstellar level; a general area had already been delineated.
Therefore, he thought for a mont and said: "After this battle ends, the Bados Civilization shouldn't continue to erode you guys."
Hearing this, Gosling rejoiced: "Many thanks, Your Excellency Dragon Lord. Your Excellency Klein helped us weaken the Resistance Army's internal turmoil a while ago."
"Now you have even eliminated external interference for us. I am truly too grateful."
He thought it was because of this information that Li Yu was going to apply pressure to the Bados Civilization or use so tougher thods.
Li Yu paused. Although he was currently holding Marc's Handle and could make him stop the operation to erode the Morton Civilization at any ti.
But the reason he said this wasn't because of Marc.
It was because the Forerunners' sub-base within the Bados Civilization's borders had been wiped out. The Bados Civilization was no longer of use value to the Forerunners.
Next, they definitely wouldn't support them anymore. Without rear support, even without Li Yu speaking, Marc would also keep a low profile and stop the erosion of the Morton Civilization.
However, he didn't explain, but shook his head and smiled: "However, you still have a big trouble in front of you. Only by surviving this calamity can you usher in true peaceful developnt."
"What trouble?" Gosling's Heart Skipped a Beat, and a bad premonition suddenly arose.
"Our esteed Your Royal Highness Loyd accidentally leaked the news that you guys possess the cloak to the enemy when facing them."
Seeing that Gosling had behaved well, Li Yu still decided to reveal this information to him.
"So, next, there should be a very powerful existence coming to make trouble for you guys."
Subsequently, he played a portion of the Recording for Gosling to see; it was precisely the part where Loyd revealed the news of the cloak.
Gosling looked at the Recording in disbelief. His eyes trembled, his throat bobbed, and an indescribable emotion surged in his heart.
"How... could this be..." he said with difficulty. "Loyd, why did he do this?"
"Who knows," Li Yu shrugged and said, "However, the cloak has already been obtained by . You guys can totally tell the other party this news. I don't mind."
Even if he told them not to say it, Gosling would probably still reveal everything.
"Surviving this crisis, the Morton Civilization will usher in a true rebirth like breaking out of a cocoon," he consoled. "You guys can also rely on the other party, if the other party is willing to accept you."
Gosling now only wanted to start Cursing Loudly.
Fuck you, rebirth from a cocoon?
I don't want to break the cocoon, I just want to be reborn!
And asking us to rely on them? How do we rely on them? We gave the cloak to you, what else do we have?
A lifeform that could even make Loyd afraid and force him to reveal the news of the cloak must definitely be boundlessly strong.
In all likelihood, it was that guy being besieged in the Recording just now.
How did it turn out like this again!?
I worked hard for so long, but the outco hasn't changed?
His ntality exploded.
However, Gosling's lips trembled slightly, and ultimately he could only reveal a bitter smile: "Thank you for your... reminder."
He knew the reason Li Yu didn't reveal this information earlier was probably to prevent him from not handing over the cloak.
In fact, it was true. If he had known this information from the very beginning, even if Li Yu had helped them eliminate this crisis, he definitely wouldn't have given the cloak to Li Yu.
"Do you want to take a Recording to prove that I took the item away?" Li Yu considerately inquired.
"It's already... recorded," Gosling squeezed out a smile on his face.
Li Yu was slightly stunned, then chuckled twice and said: "I hope not long from now, I won't hear news of your Demise."
After saying this sentence, Li Yu's Corporeal Form dissipated like an illusion from here.
Gosling trembled all over, unable to hold back anymore, and cursed angrily:
"Damn it, a bunch of bastards! Relying on the people behind them and their formidable Strength, they just do whatever they want, say whatever they want, not considering the consequences at all!"
"Oh right..." Li Yu's voice suddenly rang out from behind again, making Gosling's heart contract, almost making him pass out.
"Forgot to tell you, the na of that organization is the Forerunners."
The Forerunners!?
Gosling suffered a heavy blow again. Whenever he thought the news was bad enough, there would always be an even worse piece of news.
He naturally knew of this organization. Rumor had it that they and the Other-Dinsional Camp were two sides of the sa coin, split from one organization.
Moreover, they had a deep origin with the Star Glory Empire. Even the Star Glory Empire standing at the pinnacle of the Interstellar was exceptionally cautious towards them.
Not to ntion the already declining Morton Civilization.
And Li Yu stared suspiciously at Gosling: "Were you cursing Loyd just now?"
"Yes, yes..." Gosling's voice trembled, still haven't recovered his senses.
"He indeed deserves to be cursed," Li Yu deeply agreed, and then disappeared from here again.
Gosling's lips moved silently, his expression changing. Ultimately, he didn't say anything more and staggered to sit on the chair.
