And while Gosling's hopes were all turning to dust, the Third Forerunner was crushing the last green short blade.
His cold pupils gazed at the female in front of him, who was full of the aura of death, and crisply and cleanly extinguished her Vitality.
All the Advanced Stage lifeforms had already been wiped out by him. He looked around the battlefield——
Violent explosions filled his line of sight. The remnant Legion of Gods was besieging the Pioneer Fleet.
The Armor of the warships was torn apart by the remnants, and the blasted fragnts spread out in all directions without any resistance, expanding the scope of the battlefield further and further.
When these high-speed fragnts collided with nearby Shields, they would turn into tiny blue flas in the blink of an eye, vaporized until not even atomic particles remained.
Light warships and Individual Combat chas engaged in a dogfight with dazzling trajectories amidst the crisscrossing artillery fire and brilliant magical glow, desperately trying to smash their own artillery fire onto the enemy's bodies.
Assault ships and individual chas were constantly being destroyed. Twisted Armor plates and broken Cockpits were ejected into space, spinning madly.
Warriors from destroyed fighters could be seen everywhere, ejecting from their Cockpits. The ferocious Forerunner soldiers still wouldn't give up fighting in this situation.
They would start their Armor drive Engines, activate their reactors, and use their own bodies and Armor cores as missiles to bomb the nearest enemy.
But the Legion of Gods with various forms were doing the sa. Until they disappeared at the last mont, they still brandished the Weapons in their hands, tearing at the enemy's Armor.
Accurate, agile, yet unprecedentedly powerful Psionic Matrix cannons were most suitable for this lightweight battlefield.
Wherever the Psionic Matrix cannons were active, the Legion of Gods drifted about like shredded paper.
Before their Energy Depletion, the Psionic Matrix would continue to sweep the battlefield like a storm of death.
Active on the battlefield, apart from the Forerunners' regular elite soldiers, was a group of invisible soldiers.
Those warriors in gray-black Armor wielding chanical Scythes were like ghosts patrolling the battlefield.
They were the important reason why the Pioneer Fleet was still resisting tenaciously, equipped with a stealth module called "Ghost."
They carefully and swiftly shuttled outside the enemy's network of fire, their routes changing rapidly.
When the chanical Scythes in their hands, equipped with various Amplification modules, reaped the enemy's lives, they disappeared from their original spot the next mont.
Those who could hold on until now without being annihilated were all the extrely elite parts of the Pioneer Fleet.
The Third Forerunner took in the entire battlefield. So golden tentacles floating around his body erupted with astonishing Energy Fluctuations.
The Scepter of Power glowed. Wherever the golden tentacles passed, it was like a rag wiping away traces, easily wiping out large swathes of the Legion of Gods.
He alone could change the situation of the entire battlefield.
With his participation, the ensuing battle ended very quickly.
In the starry sky, as far as the eye could see, there were fragnts of broken warships everywhere, leaving only traces of the Pioneer Fleet.
As for the enemies, they left nothing behind.
"Tally battle damage, clean up the battlefield, connect to Headquarters," the Third Forerunner restored his normal form, and the Titan Artifacts buffing him also disappeared completely.
It was just that at the mont of recovery, he seed to sway slightly, as if he had been affected by sothing.
His expression was gloomy. This battle could be said to be a total loss. Not only did he gain nothing, but he also lost a massive number of warships.
He himself was even affected because of his "Semi-Information Form."
The so-called Semi-Information Form was to undergo a partial transformation into an Information State.
If he completely transford into an Information State, then he could avoid the backlash from the Cosmic Rules, because by then he would no longer be an individual, but a "label" itself.
However, with his current life tier, if he forcibly transford into an Information State, he would only be assimilated by the universe and lose his independent consciousness.
The Titan Artifacts on his body could not only provide an Amplification for his combat power but also suppress his own degree of Information State transformation.
And every ti he underwent this kind of Ascension, it would heavily affect him.
If it wasn't to deal with the enemy's backup plans, he wouldn't have undergone this kind of Ascension either.
"Yes!"
The surviving warrior generals took the order, commanding the few remaining warships to search the battlefield for soldiers who hadn't completely died.
Not long after, they established a communication link with Headquarters, and a blurry projection was mapped beside the Third Forerunner.
"Why contact all of a sudden? How is the progress? Have you found traces of those guys?" he inquired, his tone lacking any sense of superiority.
"I was ambushed. The other party knew I was coming long ago and prepared a massive number of Dinsional Lifeforms to launch a siege against ," the Third Forerunner's tone was cold:
"The fleet I led suffered heavy losses, almost entirely wiped out, with few remaining."
"What?" The already blurry projection flickered. He said categorically: "That's impossible. Sending you there was my spur-of-the-mont decision. No one could have known this news in advance!"
This wasn't a Step-By-Step plan, but a temporary operation born from the Thunder Battle Armor being snatched.
Saying soone knew the news in advance to ambush the Third Forerunner was simply impossible.
The Third Forerunner shook his head: "It's the truth. That Li Yu knew my true Superpower. The Other-Dinsional Camp made targeted counterasures, all using dinsional creatures, rendering more than half of my abilities useless. Left with no choice, I could only undergo a temporary Ascension and enter a Semi-Information Form."
The projection was silent for a mont, finding this sowhat unbelievable.
The files of the Forerunner officers were absolutely confidential, and the Third Forerunner was even more special. The files on his abilities had long been sealed.
Because his ability developnt had already reached the final step, and basically nothing more could be researched.
How could the files have been leaked?
Could there be an Internal Traitor?
This thought surfaced in his mind.
Those who knew the Third Forerunner's files were all High Echelons among the High Echelons. If there really was an Internal Traitor among those people, then it would be troubleso.
However, there was no concrete evidence right now, he rely harbored so suspicions.
"As long as you're fine. The other party expended so much effort but still didn't take you down, showing their understanding isn't comprehensive," the projection consoled.
"No..." the Third Forerunner shook his head: "According to their arrangent, I thought there would be even more powerful lifeforms appearing, but for so reason, they suddenly gave up on continuing the attack."
"Although I killed a massive number of Advanced Stage lifeforms, I suspect they should have so kind of revival thod, otherwise they wouldn't engage in such a massive waste."
The blurry projection shook his head and said: "Even if there is a revival thod, it would definitely consu a massive cost, and at least those normal soldiers couldn't be revived."
"This battle wasn't entirely fruitless; the Other-Dinsional Camp's losses aren't small either."
The Third Forerunner remained silent. Although that was indeed the logic, he was still sowhat unwilling.
And the blurry projection was still digesting this information. This sudden news surprised him sowhat.
He needed to wait for the specific battle Recording to be transmitted over before analyzing more information.
The Third Forerunner also knew this, so he only briefly introduced the general situation, then changed the subject:
"Oh right, Loyd revealed sothing at the ti, saying that the cloak component of the Thunder Battle Armor is under Gosling's control."
"This news..." the blurry projection said: "We haven't found any related clues, but since he said so, then you should make another trip."
"That's also my plan. Although I didn't achieve the goal, I left a backup plan..." The Third Forerunner raised his hand, and wisps of golden energy gathered, seemingly about to form a blurry projection in his hand.
"I captured Li Yu's Information State. Although it's very hard to launch an attack against him using this, I can lock onto his position at any ti. This will give us the initiative..."
Just as he finished speaking, the Third Forerunner's expression abruptly changed. The ball of golden energy in his hand suddenly dissipated, unable to be gathered again.
"His Information State disappeared... How could this be? I could still construct it just now," he frowned tightly, as if he had discovered sothing incredible.
"Even if he entered a dinsional world, it shouldn't disappear."
"It might be an Information State defensive thod. You should head to the Morton Civilization as quickly as possible first. Let's discuss this matter later."
The blurry projection said. Right now, they couldn't get any useful clues, and continuing to wonder about it here was no different from being fools.
The Third Forerunner lowered his hand unwillingly and simultaneously closed the communication link.
………
"I didn't expect you to also remind Gosling."
Loyd sat opposite Li Yu, his legs crossed, wearing gray-black leather shoes. His gaze occasionally landed on the red tin can beside him.
He always felt this thing looked sowhat familiar.
"They gave a piece of information, I can't just show no appreciation at all, right?" The Holographic Screen in front of Li Yu kept scrolling, and a massive amount of news information swiped past.
"If Gosling evacuated the Morton Civilization, that would be fun." Loyd had a light smile on his face: "Wiping out the Morton Civilization, the Forerunners will completely appear in the interstellar field of vision."
"Gosling won't run. A person like him will only be buried along with his civilization." Li Yu shook his head and said: "Let's stop discussing him. Do you really not know the specific ti the Titan Sanctuary will materialize?"
"I don't know," Loyd shook his head: "Since I'm not in charge of this operation, I don't need to inquire about so of the more confidential information."
"No need? That ans you have a way to know." Li Yu captured Loyd's hidden aning.
"Do you know that if your people appear on the battlefield of the Titan Sanctuary, it signifies the failure of my operation." Loyd changed the subject:
"And I also have to bear the mistake of not knowing in advance that you guys were going to make a move."
"I know it's definitely impossible to stop you guys, but my losses this ti are too great," Loyd had already quickly gotten into character.
Since they were cooperating, Li Yu couldn't make demands unconditionally.
"You want to extricate you from this?" Li Yu tapped the tabletop and chuckled: "This matter, is simple..."
"Oh?" Loyd looked suspiciously at Li Yu.
"Extricating you is nothing more than minimizing your mistakes." Li Yu leaned back, and the chanical seat perfectly caught his figure.
"Then just shift this mistake directly. Make the reason for this operation's failure a mistake of the Star Glory Empire, rather than your mistake." Li Yu seed to have already had a draft in mind.
"How?" Loyd still didn't understand, "I know you guys knew from the very beginning this was a scam, but how can I make those High Echelons believe this isn't my excuse to shirk responsibility?"
"No, you don't need to say it. They will believe it, and will even take the initiative to remind you," Li Yu revealed a smile with inexplicable aning.
"Because, the Abyss Institute was wiped out by long ago."
Swoosh!
Loyd abruptly stood up, his face full of astonishnt, staring fixedly at Li Yu. The biggest doubt that had been troubling him also received an answer at this mont.
He had never known exactly how Li Yu found out that the information they provided was false, and even guarded against them from the very beginning.
"So that's how it is. The bait was already dead, naturally impossible to make you take the hook," he muttered in a low voice, then slowly sat down, feeling Dumbfounded.
The Star Glory Empire's Think Tank had analyzed for a long ti before concluding that using the dinsional world of the Abyss Institute and the elusive Titan Artifact could constitute the most perfect bait.
But he didn't expect that from the very beginning, their idea was wrong.
"If that's the case, then this matter indeed has nothing to do with . No... I can even..." Loyd's expression flickered.
If the news of the Abyss Institute's destruction was learned by the Star Glory Empire, then the High Echelons would know their so-called induction plan was just a joke.
And the failure of this plan had nothing to do with Loyd either, but because the bait they set was wrong to begin with.
They could only bla their intelligence System for not getting tily updates.
But if Loyd reported this in advance before the Star Glory Empire's intelligence System discovered it, then not only would he be faultless, but he would also have rit.
"You want to use this matter in exchange for rit?" Li Yu saw through Loyd's intentions and refused: "No, at least we can't let the Morgan Family be prepared."
His rhetoric was quite ingenious. He didn't say he couldn't let the Star Glory Empire be prepared, but singled out the Morgan Family, precisely to weaken the psychological defenses in Loyd's heart.
Look, you're just framing the Morgan Family, not selling out the Star Glory Empire.
"I can report it when things are irretrievable, for example, when the Titan Sanctuary is just about to open. They won't have ti to prepare anymore. This way... it's a win-win." Loyd already had a plan.
"Since that's the case, then you can give the specific ti the Titan Sanctuary opens, right?" Li Yu smiled.
"Of course. Calculating the ti, it should be in..." Loyd paused for a mont before saying: "Six days..."
