Chapter 268: Digor's Summons

Li Yu didn't know why Javier had suddenly become despondent, his entire body enveloped in an aura called "grief".

Looking up at Li Yu, he didn't say a word, opened the Blast Door, and left the training ground straight away.

Li Yu felt somewhat Baffling. Did this guy get triggered by something?

Lexie's eyes sparkled with little stars, looking at Li Yu with a reverent gaze.

Li Yu didn't leave the training ground immediately. With no one to disturb him, he could better familiarize himself with his own Strength.

After several attempts, the strongest Strength he could burst out under normal circumstances was about 80,000 Cal.

This was the attack erupted under the Amplification of the [Titan Colonization Armor] and [Golden Blood Talent], combined with his own genetic Strength.

At the same time, he also discovered a certain characteristic of his own...

"This is Kalaitos's Quantum State Ability?" Lexie widened her eyes, looking at the azure Luminescence cluster in front of her, like condensed star mist, crystal clear, vaguely maintaining a humanoid shape.

However, the downside was that it was easily affected by Energy attacks, and maintaining it for too long would cause damage to himself.

During the battle with Deanpodo just now, he had a vague feeling of this, but he didn't know Deanpodo's intentions at the time and didn't dare to rashly try this new ability.

After spending two or three hours, Li Yu had mostly figured out his own abilities and prepared to leave this Military Laboratory.

...

Outside the Military Laboratory, Lexie reluctantly bid farewell. Li Yu maintained a gentle smile. Only after her figure disappeared did he raise his hand and look at a piece of paper in his hand—"Corden Apartment 17-3-605, Password "

Written on it was an apartment number and a password. These Researchers also had short vacation times.

Obviously... that apartment should be Lexie's address. She even gave Li Yu the password.

A Researcher at an advanced Experimental Base, young and beautiful, Lexie was already the ceiling that most Return Star High-Grade Citizens could meet.

Chuckling lightly twice, Golden Lightning flashed, and the note in his hand turned into fine powder, scattering in the air.

The Smart Terminal vibrated continuously. He looked down and scanned it. During the time he was isolated from the world in the Experimental Base.

Max had called him 56 times, Edwin called three times—one a day, Klein called once, and Hunter called a few times.

What surprised Li Yu was that Kansa actually called more than ten times. This guy had congratulated him the last time he was awarded a medal, and hadn't contacted him since.

And most of Max's messages basically told him to reply as soon as possible.

Li Yu thought for a moment, replied to a few messages, casually summoned a personal Flying Vehicle, and returned to his Base first.

...

The people at the Base weren't surprised by Li Yu's safe return. Hunter was still wasting his life, watching a grand bitter romance drama—"The Temptation of Return Star".

"Watching this kind of stuff every day, aren't you afraid your IQ will degenerate?"

Hunter was like a Slacker: "How much further can it degenerate? I've already passed the age of fighting and killing."

"I don't keep idle people here," Li Yu said with narrowed eyes.

"Alright..." Hunter still lay paralyzed on the Advanced Massage Chair, lazily saying: "Tell me in advance when you want to Discard After Use."

The former Hunter wasn't someone Useless. Unfortunately, under successive blows, first his Gene Chain was removed, cutting off the Path Of Genetic Evolution.

Then he awakened a garbage Superpower, cutting off the Ability Evolution path.

Of the current three mainstream evolution paths in the Interstellar Society, two were already cut off for him, and he didn't want to try the remaining path of Cybernetic Enhancement.

He had no choice but to become a Slacker, turning into the appearance he hated the most.

"Elder Brother, why has the smell on your body become fragrant again?" Keller pounced on Li Yu, her face full of intoxication. If she wasn't so young, she would very likely be mistaken for a pervert.

Sinai held the milk she had prepared long ago, a gentle smile on her face. Long time no see, her scale seemed to have gotten even larger. Li Yu swept his gaze over her calmly.

The Little Demon Giant's forehead was covered in sweat, rushing over from the Training Room. Tu Ying's emotional expression was very reserved, only standing in front of Li Yu.

"Your muscles are firm again, not bad..." Li Yu patted Tu Ying's shoulder. His height was already similar to Li Yu's, and his Strength had also stepped into a C-Tier Lifeform.

The Strength completion had ended, and the subsequent Strength growth wouldn't be this fast.

"Mhm." Tu Ying cherished his words like gold. His face showed a little excitement, but he couldn't say anything more.

Li Yu felt a bit strange, always feeling like he was now in Tu Rui's role, yet somewhat different.

Raising a son for an "enemy" was quite interesting. Bizarre thoughts flashed through Li Yu's mind.

The Esper Legion came to pay respects to their true god. Li Ping was also among them. As usual, he comforted them with a few words, and everyone chatted for a moment.

"I am now an A-Tier Lifeform, your body probably cant bear my blood for the time being. I'll ask Peyton later," Li Yu considered Keller's request.

This news directly shocked Hunter off the massage chair, which could be called a Slacker turning over.

"When did you become an A-Tier Lifeform?"

"Um... half a day ago..."

It took everyone quite a bit of time to digest this news. Everyone was very surprised. Even Tu Ying and Keller, due to the uniqueness of their race, their minds developed rapidly, far surpassing ordinary children.

They also clearly knew what an A-Tier Lifeform represented.

And the one with the most complex emotions was Hunter.

He watched helplessly as the former Scavenger became the top tier of the Interstellar food chain. How much time had passed? He thought carefully and couldn't help but gasp.

This speed... is astonishing!

Sinai, on the other hand, was very happy. Her face maintained a warm smile. Whether Li Yu was an A-Tier Lifeform didn't mean too much to her; both were high and mighty.

She occasionally thought of that Spaceship, thinking of herself mustering the courage to stop Li Yu's group.

For now, she was very satisfied. Although her daughter was developing in weird directions, at least she wasn't discriminated against.

In the dead of night, she occasionally had strange thoughts, but what followed were a pair of cold, lonely red eyes.

The eyes of that stunning girl seemed to see through everything, making her only able to silence her heart and suppress her desires to the lowest.

"Right... don't know what's up with that ugly bug of yours, suddenly popping out a cloud of dense Luminescence. It's currently being researched at Peyton's place."

After the surprise, Hunter half-squinted his eyes and added:

"Also, that Kansa couldn't contact you the past two days, seems like something major happened on their side."

More [Spice]? Li Yu was slightly uplifted. He didn't pay too much Attention to Kansa's news; this person was almost forgotten in his memory.

He quickly walked into the Underground Laboratory. Peyton was focused on researching the [Spice]. The star-like [Spice] emitted dense Luminescence, floating in the Observation Room.

"Did you research anything out of it..." Li Yu's ghost-like voice sounded by Peyton's ear. He could clearly observe Peyton's body shudder, although very slightly.

"When did you get back?" Peyton turned around expressionlessly, his eyes looking like they wanted to kill someone.

Scared the child.

"Just got back..." Li Yu was calm and composed, enduring Peyton's death-by-a-thousand-cuts gaze.

"I can only figure out that this thing has huge benefits for Mental Power, but I have no clue about its specific composition," Peyton snorted inwardly, turning to the [Stellar Radiance] and said.

"It would be wicked if you could research it." Li Yu walked into the Observation Room and directly sniffed the [Spice] into his nasal cavity.

His silent Mental Power began to boil like boiling water. Extreme pleasure swept through his nerves, and his Mental Power directly increased by a large margin.

However, this time it didn't allow his Mental Power to advance to A-Tier, but Li Yu had expected this. The A-Tier watershed couldn't be crossed so easily.

He probably still needed five doses of [Spice] to advance to an A-Tier Lifeform. This was [Spice] produced by a Sand Worm, its power was limited.

It seems to have other functions... Li Yu felt his body was slightly different. He frowned and carefully comprehended.

That influence originating from Faith disappeared. Li Yu's pupils contracted, realizing exactly what was different.

The effect of the [Spice] was extraordinary. Not only could it enhance Mental Power, but it could also serve as fuel for the [Navigator].

Although he hadn't used the [Navigator] for a long time, this couldn't conceal its awesomeness.

It could also erase the negative effects of Mental Power. He had once briefly borrowed the Sacred Relic of the Blazing Eye Race, causing him to suffer negative effects, and it was the [Spice] that erased it.

"If that's the case..." Li Yu pondered. Mental Power Enhancement was far more difficult than increasing physical Strength; otherwise, Mental Power Cultivators wouldn't be so rare.

"Why are your body's magnetic field readings so complex..." Peyton stared at the screen, seemingly discovering some abnormality: "Did you become an A-Tier Lifeform?"

After all, coming from Noble origins, he wasn't too surprised, but rather excitedly said: "Since this is the case, shouldn't you fulfill what you promised me? Dimensional Camp... large Research Institute... Extraterrestrial creatures?"

Li Yu looked at the suddenly excited Peyton and felt a bit of a headache. He only remembered making quite a few promises to Peyton like a scumbag, just to Con this guy into working for him.

"I just broke through, I still need time to prepare things..." Li Yu's excuse was quite standard. After having a few tubes of blood drawn, Peyton was barely satisfied and let him leave.

"Sigh..." Sighing deeply, Li Yu felt he lived like a pimp, occasionally giving some sweet treats to seduce respectable women into falling into the Abyss.

Half an hour later, Hunter notified him that Max and Edwin had arrived.

"Boss... why did you choose to stay in the Military Laboratory waiting? I thought you were going to run away," Max couldn't help but say right upon arriving. During the time he couldn't contact Li Yu, he was extremely anxious inside.

Only after confirming through Aisel that Li Yu was still in the Military Laboratory did he breathe a sigh of relief.

Li Yu was already immune to Max's unreliability. He looked at the calm-faced Edwin, "You know?"

"Mhm..." Edwin nodded.

"What did Prince Connor say?" Li Yu asked.

"Father was very angry, believing that you and Her Highness Klein have touched the Bottom Line," Edwin looked at Li Yu, attempting to find any trace of surprise.

Unfortunately, Li Yu only had one sentence: "And in the end?"

Edwin was slightly surprised. The rhetoric he prepared in between was completely discarded by him. He pondered for a moment and said: "Father accepted this proposal, but there's a small problem."

"What problem?" He wasn't surprised that Prince Connor accepted this proposal, only this "problem".

"Majesty Digor wants to see you." Edwin's words made Li Yu's heart skip a beat. Before he could speak, he heard Edwin add: "A private meeting."

"Majesty Digor... already knows?" Li Yu probed.

"That's right..." Max took over the conversation, speaking in an exaggerated tone: "You didn't even know, after you left, my father went directly to meet Majesty Digor."

"I was scared to death when I found out. How could this kind of thing be told to Majesty Digor?"

Fuck... Li Yu frowned tightly. Aisel was truly shrewd, actually going to Digor to report this matter.

That's right... when Digor disappeared previously, Aisel could not care about Vimala.

But now that Digor has returned to his throne, this matter... Aisel could ignore everyone's dissatisfaction, except for Digor, whom he couldn't ignore.

Aisel was decisive but didn't tell him, resulting in him only finding out about this matter now.

When this plan was originally formulated, Digor was still missing. The Gui Xing High Command was divided into several factions, and it didn't matter at all.

But now that Digor is sitting on the throne, suppressing all voices, the situation is different.

The only good news is that although the reason is unknown, Digor agreed to this matter, otherwise Max and Edwin wouldn't have come to find him.

"It's just a private meeting, you don't need to worry," Edwin added.

Li Yu nodded. He didn't know what Digor was thinking. Agreeing to this matter probably meant he had his own purpose too.

However, having pulled in Aisel and Connor as two protective talismans, no major issues should arise.

Max and Edwin mainly came to inform Li Yu of this matter. They chatted casually. They weren't too surprised about Li Yu becoming an A-Tier Lifeform.

Max, on the contrary, winked and said:

"I heard you refused Titus's recruitment for Klein."

"How did you know?" Li Yu had a strange expression, then remembered that White-Haired guy. Since Deanpodo failed his recruitment, he certainly wouldn't publicize it himself.

It could only be that White-Haired guy. How much time had passed? Was he broadcasting this everywhere with a megaphone?

"This matter has spread throughout the upper echelons. According to the Captain of my father's Guard Corps, many A-Tier Lifeforms are scoffing at you. His Highness... Titus..." Mentioning this name, Max's playful expression also somewhat restrained:

"His foundation is robust... why did you refuse? Could it be that you really have some kind of thoughts about Her Highness Klein?"

Li Yu shrugged: "No real reason, I haven't even met Titus. One of his subordinates says he wants to recruit me, and if I Eagerly Follow over, wouldn't it be a huge loss of face?"
