Chapter 312: Using a Cannon to Hit a Mosquito

The Four-Armed Titan Fleet was in the warp channel, but they had not directly left the Barot Civilization.

In the main ship's command center, Donovan was replenishing his body's nutrients. Scattered glass test tubes were piled up, and his face looked very unsightly.

The two A-Tier Lifeforms next to him were also the same. The duck that was originally about to fall into their hands suddenly flew away, and they were even slapped back and forth with full swings by someone. No one would be in a good mood.

Gongora spoke up, his face carrying indignation, "That Li Yu is too arrogant. Luo Gu was killed. If we just go back like this, I'm afraid we won't be able to avoid being reprimanded."

Jorge shook his head: "Even if we don't leave, we don't have any other way. The Barot Civilization will not allow us to make another move."

Gongora was unwilling to leave just like this and continued: "Li Yu's identity is special. If we can capture him, it will be a massive achievement."

Donovan didn't utter a word until the two simultaneously turned their gazes to him, "Your Excellency Donovan, what is your opinion?"

"His strength is very high..." Donovan opened his mouth, his eyes flickering.

"Didn't the data say he just became an A-Tier Lifeform? How could his combat power be at that level of strength to instantly kill Luo Gu? Even if..."

"I am not his match..." Donovan frankly admitted this point. Subsequently, he brought up the combat footage with Li Yu, deliberately pausing at a few spots.

"Large-scale manipulation of energy, this is his first method..." The screen paused on the image of him tearing apart the sky full of energy cannons.

"An invisible power, similar to a telekinesis superpower..." Following that was the image of Li Yu instantly killing Luo Gu. The scene of the massive Luo Gu being condensed into a sphere with blood floating around made their hearts tremble with fear.

"Short-distance space warp ability, but it cannot be used frequently..."

Playing was the scene of Li Yu escaping Donovan's pursuit multiple times.

"A powerful physical body... the ability to stimulate potential similar to Returning Star's Gold-Blooded Race..." This was the scene of Li Yu transforming into his "Saiyan State."

"But it seems to have some distinction from the Gold-Blooded Race. This green aura makes it hard to grasp."

"There are also multiple powerful weapons, especially this hammer... it looks like a weapon of the Radiant Council." Thor's Hammer was magnified, revealing multiple symbols.

"Superpowers, physical body, weapons, speed... every single one is not inferior in the slightest," Jorge muttered, and then gasped. It seems this guy... has no weaknesses.

Normal biological creatures would all have their specialties and weaknesses. Even A-Tier Lifeforms were the same.

But listening to Donovan's analysis, they abruptly discovered that this guy seemed to have no weaknesses, a decathlon champion!?

"No..." Donovan shook his head: "He has a weakness."

Jorge and Gongora simultaneously looked at Donovan.

"Time!" Donovan analyzed calmly, bringing up the recording of when they initially besieged Li Yu.

"At the very beginning, he did not have the ability to resist. It was just that I didn't want to beat him to death, so I gave him an opportunity." Donovan extracted one of the few pieces of information:

"His subsequent state should be similar to the Gold-Blooded Race; the heavier the injuries, the higher the combat power."

"We just need to forcefully control him, making him unable to resist."

Jorge was somewhat confused. Doesn't this just bring them back to the starting point? Li Yu wasn't an idiot; he wouldn't just let someone control him. If they wanted to sanction him, they could only fight.

Under the condition of not endangering his life, the situation would ultimately revert to how it was before, being counter-killed by Li Yu.

"Are you saying... use other methods to make him lose his ability to resist?" Gongora's eyes shifted slightly: "His Excellency The Sleeper seems to also be in Barot..."

"Correct. He just completed his mission and hasn't left yet," Donovan nodded.

"But..." Jorge was still somewhat worried: "Will Barot agree to our operation?"

"Barot... hehe..." Donovan sneered a few times: "They don't have the qualifications to speak."

The few of them continued to discuss and formulate a plan. They abandoned the large-scale fleet, preparing to enter Barot's capital star system alone and lightly equipped.

……

Within the main ship of the Meteor Fleet, Li Yu listened to the conversation of Donovan's group, his eyes revealing a bit of sinister chill. These few people actually still hadn't given up.

Donovan's Intelligent Terminal had already been enlightened by him; all the other party's plans could not be hidden from him.

Still wanting to take him back for the reward up to now, what kind of price exactly had the Loren Family put out to the public?

And this Sleeper, Donovan seemed quite confident in him. He wondered what level of strength he had.

However, since his own strength had already been displayed, yet Donovan was still very confident, then this Sleeper shouldn't be simple, Li Yu pondered.

He searched for this person's information, but couldn't find anything in a short time. There were at least eight hundred if not ten thousand Sleepers on the Black Hole Network, making it impossible to confirm.

But since there was a possibility of overturning the car, then it should be strangled in the cradle.

Barot's capital star system was named the Mukhtar Star System, a fairly standard star system that hadn't undergone large-scale interstellar modifications.

They had merely transformed all nine planets into life planets. Compared to Returning Star's grand undertakings, it truly paled in comparison.

However, not everyone had the qualifications to carry out large-scale interstellar modifications. For the Barot Civilization's strength, towing planets was too much to force, and it wasn't worth it; the price to pay was too high.

The Barot Civilization revered the strong. Its origins could be traced back to a certain tribal-type civilization on the Mukhtar main planet.

Various orbital cannons and their own patrol fleets patrolled outside the Mukhtar Star System to avoid unexpected situations from occurring.

They didn't have a "Starry Veil" capable of suppressing everything.

In reality, attacks even frequently broke out within the Mukhtar Star System, coming from enemies as well as internal rebel organizations.

Returning Star's fleets didn't approach here to avoid triggering internal protests in Barot.

Fleets of other civilizations approaching their capital star system could easily arouse various speculations.

Nominally they had come to assist in defense and also received a grand welcome from Barot officials; hundreds of spaceships came to welcome them.

But Das and Soli received a piece of bad news.

"Where did Commander Li Yu disappear to? We still have to meet with President Massimo later." Das frowned, inquiring the decadent middle-aged man in front of him.

"He had something to do and went to the Mukhtar Star System first. He told you guys not to wait for him," Hunter shook his head and said.

"What?" Das was somewhat confused, subsequently pressing further: "When, what matter does he have to do?"

"I don't know..." Hunter truly didn't know. Li Yu was always too lazy to explain too much when doing things.

Das instantly had a bad premonition, but looking at the welcoming spaceships not far away and the approaching welcoming team, he could only temporarily suppress this premonition.

Please don't let there be any unexpected trouble. He prayed in his heart, yet vaguely had a premonition that something would definitely happen.

………

Mukhtar Star System—Third Life Planet, "Green" Hotel. This was precisely the place where the Sleeper and his subordinates were staying.

The "Green" Hotel was located in the high entertainment district of the Third Life Planet.

This urban area was filled with countless entertainment facilities, with a massive flow of people. This hotel charged exorbitant prices and stood in the middle of a street, extremely conspicuous.

The Sleeper was calculating the time. Originally, he was prepared to leave today, but Donovan suddenly sent a message asking him to wait a few days.

Normally, the two did not belong to the same system, so he had no need to pay attention to Donovan. However, Donovan revealed a piece of news that made him suppress his thoughts of leaving.

"Li Yu..." He knew this name. The figure the Loren Family had specifically demanded to be captured alive by name, and also a prominent figure recently.

If it was him, it was indeed worth delaying for a few days.

The Loren Family seemed determined to get him, sparing no expense to offer a very high price, which also made his heart flutter slightly.

His subordinates stayed in the hotel squandering money like dirt, calling for a large number of sex workers of different races to indulge in thrusting.

These members naturally didn't have any scruples and were accustomed to indulging their desires.

Even the Sleeper didn't tell his subordinates to exercise restraint, and even participated in it himself.

Their previous mission was indeed very dangerous, resulting in quite a few casualties. Enjoying some now was harmless.

The Sleeper pushed away the girl who had fallen asleep lying on his body.

He threw on an exquisite robe and took out a bottle of stimulating synthetic alcoholic beverage from the freezer.

Downing half the bottle in one gulp, he paced to the one-way window of the hotel room, gazing at the scene outside the window.

It was already late into the night at this moment, but there were still many people on the street, and four or five out of ten were drunk.

The sky above the city was filled with alternating red and green neon halos, making this planet appear indulgent in a lifestyle of luxury and dissipation.

From time to time, hovering vehicles streaked across the sky, and mechanical security forces were also patrolling nearby.

Staring at the scene of spaceships coming and going outside, the Sleeper recalled this operation.

The Meditation Research Institute snatched the Titan Secret Technology from the Amethyst Civilization, originating from Titan Ruins.

And his mission was to snatch it back. The Meditation Research Institute possessed solid strength, and he only successfully snatched it back after several clashes.

Now that he was about to successfully accomplish his task and retire, a sense of arrogance couldn't help but arise in the Sleeper's heart.

Raising his hand to stroke the ring worn on his finger, the Sleeper couldn't help but let out a contemptuous laugh.

"Heh... Meditation Research Institute..."

Nothing more than this.

Right at the instant this thought rose in his mind, the one-way window before his eyes was enveloped by an abruptly erupting blinding lightning glow.

Boom!

In the next moment, the window exploded with a bang!

The tyrannical thunder shockwave directly blasted the caught off guard Sleeper in front of the window flying, crashing through the room's wall and throwing him into the hotel corridor.

And at the same time, the same explosions occurred in all the rooms. Every single one of the Sleeper's subordinates was blasted flying, falling all over the floor just like him.

The entire hotel seemed to have been bombed. In an instant, bricks and stones flew sideways, dust sprayed, and it became a complete mess.

A large number of subordinates also fell in the corridor. The Sleeper swept a glance, and his gloomy and angry gaze instantly condensed.

Someone attacked them?

Could it be the people from Meditation?

They actually dared to come!?

The Sleeper glared fiercely at the subordinates in front of him, just about to erupt with terrifying strength to finish off this group of guys seeking death.

But in the next moment, an invisible shockwave swept through and penetrated the entire hotel like a passing hurricane.

Whoosh—The Force erupted!

The brains of all the subordinates abruptly exploded, turning into splattering flesh and blood.

Only the Sleeper withstood this shock. He wasn't seriously injured because he was also a master in this path.

A Mental Power Cultivator?

The Sleeper's expression drastically changed. Meditation dispatched high-tier combat power, and the other party's reaction was actually this fast?

But their location was top secret, it was impossible for it to be exposed. Besides his subordinates, only Donovan knew.

But his subordinates were almost all dead; they shouldn't be traitors. Then it was only Donovan? His eyes focused slightly.

However, before he could struggle, intense light lit up before his eyes once again. Thunder flashed, and a silver-white hammer came towards his head.

This was the final image in his line of sight.

……

Outside the hotel, the pedestrians on the street were all stunned and dodged far away.

Just now, a massive number of mechanical turrets suddenly appeared.

They surrounded the Green Hotel building layer upon layer, firing madly towards the hotel. Every round delivered dozens of light cannon strikes.

This was the capital star system after all. Such a large-scale attack was rarely seen and could already be considered a provocation to the Barot Civilization.

These were all A-Class energy cannons derived from Li Yu using the Titan Colonization Armor, and simultaneously accompanied by a massive amount of golden lightning.

Boom—

The small half of the block where the Green Hotel was located was directly bombed and leveled to the ground!

The crowds on the street were blocked outside by the interception shield formed by the Nano Cores, unable to see exactly what happened inside, engaging in spirited discussions.

Quite a few people had already turned on their Smart Terminals to conduct live broadcasts, while others rapidly notified the Planetary Guard and emergency centers.

And inside the hotel, Li Yu looked at the corpse moved in front of him by the Nano Cores, his expression weird.

This corpse was precisely the Sleeper. The body was covered in charred blackness, and the head had already been smashed to pieces. Li Yu didn't even know what he looked like.

Before he even had time to resist, he was instantly killed by Li Yu's wave of concentrated sneak attacks, passing away on the spot!

Li Yu had overestimated the opponent's strength as much as possible; after all, Donovan placed high hopes on the Sleeper.

He was originally prepared to personally rush in and engage in close combat during the concentrated fire. However, he didn't expect that.

One round of concentrated fire plus Thor's Hammer directly instantly killed this opponent, making his jaw drop.

This was even smoother than he thought.

Li Yu had originally formulated several backup plans, even preparing to reveal all his trump cards. However, he discovered it was all useless effort. The operation was so relaxed that it actually made him endlessly surprised.

This is the guy Donovan placed high hopes on?

He thought he would be a bit more formidable. Feeling-wise, it seemed he wasn't quite up to par.

Li Yu's mouth twitched, having the feeling of punching cotton.

It was simply using a cannon to hit a mosquito, like engaging in a battle of wits and courage with the air.

"The physical body is indeed very fragile, seems like a Mental Power Cultivator, so that's how it is..."

Li Yu observed carefully and finally understood. This guy was also a Mental Power Cultivator, his physical body was indeed not up to par, so being instantly killed was also relatively reasonable.

At this time, he noticed that the ring on the Sleeper's finger flickered with a metallic luster and wasn't damaged in the explosion just now.

It was clearly a compressed space forged from special materials, and these kinds of compressed spaces were all used to store special items to avoid accidental damage.

"Mission?" Li Yu suddenly remembered that from Donovan's mouth, the Sleeper indeed seemed to be carrying out some mission.

Could it be that he picked up a bargain?
