Chapter 344: A Master in Another World...
"...I understand, thank you for the news, Your Excellency Soli..."
"Your Highness Alexei, do you understand what I mean... I hope Li Yu pays the price he deserves..."
"...Beep...beep..."
Li Yu's Smart Terminal played this seemingly out-of-nowhere call record, his eyes narrowing slightly.
Alexei, a young man with a bright smile, entered his mind.
Previously, Dass and Soli had discussed the question of why Li Yu was sent to Amethyst.
It was also at that time that Li Yu learned that his being sent to Amethyst actually had Alexei's contribution.
However, there was no follow-up after that, and Li Yu didn't know what Alexei's purpose was.
And just now, Soli contacted Alexei again and revealed the news of his appearance in the Ancient Starpath to the other party.
And Alexei's reaction was also very strange, seemingly caring very much about where he was.
"Alexei... what do you want to do now?" Li Yu pondered in his heart. Beside him, the Mental Tempering Device was operating.
Five or six days had passed since that battle, and he could clearly feel that his Mental Power was constantly in a state of slow growth.
Moreover, it was worth mentioning that his Believers were increasing day by day.
Calculating the time, the post-disaster reconstruction work in the Hengfeng System should be mostly complete.
Although it had only been a little over a month, planetary-level environmental regulation devices were just that awesome.
Estimating that alien immigration was also on the agenda, his Believers also gradually increased.
Because of the existence of the Divinity Core, he temporarily couldn't feel the chanting of the Believers, but according to Meditation's data.
As Believers increased day by day, Deities would still be affected by prayers.
Before the Radiant Council was formed, in the chaotic Divine Spirit Star Sector, there were frequently Deities who went mad because they couldn't stand the prayers of Believers day and night.
It wasn't until the first Divine Spirit came into contact with a technological civilization and later formed the Radiant Council, after countless years of development, that the mature Deities had methods to shake off this influence.
"Using Artificial Intelligence to process the Believers' prayers... truly a good idea..."
Li Yu tut-tutted. Because the Meditation Research Institute specialized in Mental Power research, it recorded a lot of data regarding Deities, allowing Li Yu to cram a lot of knowledge.
Using Artificial Intelligence to process Believers' prayers was just a general statement; it involved multiple technologies and was very complex.
Li Yu couldn't realize it temporarily, but there would be a chance sooner or later in the future.
"The Lord, where should we go next?" Stanley inquired. They had been drifting aimlessly in the Ancient Starpath for several days, encountering quite a few Cosmic Calamities during this period.
Li Yu pondered slightly. Now the importance of the Heart of the Titan had abruptly increased by several levels. He definitely had to revolve his plans around the Heart of the Titan.
Who didn't want to become a Perfect Lifeform? The concept of Mental Power and physical body complementing each other made Li Yu's heart burn just hearing it.
It's just that there was absolutely no trace of the Heart of the Titan right now. The Captain and Vice-Captain of the Hermit Squad seemed to have vanished, and no one knew where the Heart of the Titan was.
However, during the last battle, he Enlightened quite a few Transformers in the Meditation Fleet and the Four-Armed Titan Legion.
But the Transformers on Donovan's side had all been destroyed; that guy evidently learned his lesson.
There was no movement from the Meditation Fleet and Returning Star, and all the Transformers were operating normally.
If there was any news from these two factions, he would know immediately.
"Let's just drift for now." Li Yu spat out these words, making Stanley's expression turn strange. He had hesitated for a long time before daring to ask, only for the answer to be unexpected.
The other captives on the ship had been very Simple-minded recently, deeply afraid of being caught for some reason and losing their lives.
Casually opening the 【System Log】, the massive amount of information that refreshed gave Li Yu's spirit an involuntary jolt.
【Mission - Obtain enough Godzilla flesh and blood - Completed - Time - Eighty-two days】
【Godzilla World – Mission Briefing: You arrive in the Godzilla World. This world filled with ancient giant beasts is in a state of extreme unease.
You lazily walk on the streets and find a beautiful girl. Her name is Christine.
You launch a mundane pursuit of her—movies, milk tea, dinners... attempting to find a rare bit of fun in it. This was supposed to unfold as A Master in Another World...】
When Li Yu saw this, a baffling feeling arose in his heart. This Clone Three's personality seemed a bit outrageous.
【...But on a certain mundane and boring morning, the giant beast Rodan swept this city with overwhelming flames.
When you found Christine, she had already become a charred corpse in the ruins.
You looked at this charred corpse, finding it hard to describe the emotions in your heart. It was as if a pet you finally invested feelings into was killed, or perhaps some weird emotion acting up inside.
Now you only had one thought: just wanting to tear Rodan to pieces. Thus... the giant beast known as the "Thunder Spirit" appeared in the world. You tore Rodan to pieces with absolutely crushing strength.
This caused panic among world governments, but you didn't care at all. Your massive body looked at that tiny corpse in the ruins.
In the following time, you continuously appeared all over the world, hunting down various giant beasts. Whether good, bad, aloof from worldly affairs, or excessively tyrannical, all were killed.
The three-headed dragon sleeping beneath the ice cave lost its life before it even woke up. The handsome boy playing with water on the island didn't even know what happened.
And Godzilla, whom you saved for last. Mothra had long been dealt with by you. Godzilla had no capital to resist at all and could only become a corpse beneath your feet.
When you disappeared, you were revered by the world as a new god, believed to have saved the world.
Annihilating the giant beasts of the entire world, this was the burial object you gave to Christine.】
It had been a long time since Li Yu carefully finished reading a 【Task Log】, but this time he read very carefully.
Through those words, he seemed to feel One's faint sorrow.
"My condolences, brother..." Li Yu comforted the air, not knowing if Clone Three could hear it.
The new clone suffered a setback in his feelings, he more or less had to offer some Condolence Money to pay respects to the other party's dead love.
【Godzilla's heart tissue – 110 tons: Lifeform flesh tissue with extremely high potential, possessing extraordinary characteristics. Upon consumption, there is a probability of obtaining the "Red Lotus State"
Note: Red Lotus State – A special state that uses burning life force as energy, drastically enhancing physical strength. The specific enhancement depends on the amount of life force burned.】
Eh? A bright light shone in Li Yu's eyes. Why is the system description somewhat different from his imagination?
He originally thought the flesh and blood was just purely flesh and blood, without any additional abilities, but now consuming it actually had a chance to awaken the "Red Lotus State".
He didn't know if this was a conceptualized ability granted by the system, or an effect inherently attached to Godzilla's heart.
Li Yu didn't expect to have an unexpected harvest this time, his mood suddenly improving a lot. Christine's death could be considered a worthy sacrifice.
Although thinking this way felt somewhat apologetic to Clone Three, he had already offered the Condolence Money. He believed Clone Three could also be understanding.
Although awakening the Red Lotus State was a probability event, placed before Li Yu was 110 tons of heart tissue. Li Yu didn't believe that if he ate all of this, he wouldn't awaken the Red Lotus State.
Clone Three temporarily entered a deep sleep state, waiting for the next deployment.
However, the Second Clone also had a few messages refresh, refusing to fall behind.
【Obtained Force Characteristic – Force Lightning: A Dark Force ability, constructing lightning through the Force, dealing effective damage to the enemy's Mental Power.】
This was a reward from a Sith Lord. The Second Clone had already left the Tatooine Planet and accidentally encountered a Sith Lord.
The other party marveled at the Second Clone's Strength and wanted to invite him to join the Sith. But... naturally, the Second Clone wouldn't join an organization that was Doomed.
【Force Lightning】 was a Force Characteristic, similar to the last precognition of the future, but specifically targeting Mental Power for attacks.
Psychic Assaults were relatively rare; Deities were more proficient in them, possessing various Divine Arts.
However, Li Yu had been a Divine Spirit for a relatively short time and had only developed an Ability to Transform into Transformers, which could be considered a Divine Art.
【Force Lightning】 could only be released through Dark Force, but Li Yu's Force had no attribute, or rather, encompassed all attributes.
This was considered a good reward, making Li Yu's mood even better. He immediately took out a few pieces of Godzilla flesh and had the Iron Fist organization cook them.
Lightly pan-fried, sprinkled with a few delicious seasonings, a delicious pan-fried Godzilla steak was placed before Li Yu.
The mechanical mask retracted slightly, revealing his mouth. The meat from the heart was relatively tough.
However, the taste was quite decent, couldn't be called unpalatable, mainly thanks to the assistance of those seasonings.
Just as Li Yu was pondering whether he could hit the jackpot on the first try and directly awaken the 【Red Lotus State】, Olena suddenly brought Elise up under escort.
This hot-figured captain was struggling weakly, still cursing angrily:
"Damn Anthony, I shouldn't have trusted you, you despicable and shameless guy!"
Carol's two teammates looked As If Mourning A Deceased Parent, heads lowered, trembling as they were escorted in.
Anthony beside them was surrounded in the center by several Iron Fist Squad members, but didn't receive the escort treatment.
Hearing Elise's verbal abuse, his tone was elegant: "Thank you for your praise."
Carol beside him snorted coldly, "Truly a bunch of Idiots, actually wanting to cooperate with Anthony. What this old snake is best at is backstabbing!"
The corners of Anthony's mouth cracked open, revealing dense teeth: "Mr. Carol still understands me the best."
"What's wrong?" Li Yu was slightly curious, still chewing in his mouth.
Olena answered: "The Lord, this Elise plotted to betray you. There are a few hidden locations in this Spaceship storing Quantum Communication Devices. She attempted to use those devices to send messages outside."
Elise mingled in the Ancient Starpath, naturally unavoidable from encountering danger. If she was boarded and captured, those unknown Quantum Communicators were her final capital to turn the tables.
Those Quantum Communicators weren't even logged into the Spaceship's Artificial Intelligence, so Claptrap didn't discover them.
However, the members of the Iron Fist Squad weren't freeloaders either, guarding various crucial passages.
Elise couldn't find a chance to act alone at all and had to find an Ally to provide cover for her.
"Oh?" Li Yu was quite surprised, looking at Elise with an appreciative gaze: "In a Desperate Situation, lacking no courage to gamble one's life, worthy of praise."
"The Lord... The Lord..." Perhaps it was this sentence that ignited hope in Elise's heart: "It's me who failed to recognize your mercy and misunderstood your meaning. Please give me another chance. I am willing to do anything for you, sacrifice everything."
"Your Excellency, give us another chance too." The other two also knelt on the ground, pleading.
"A chance?" Li Yu put another piece of fried meat into his mouth: "Your pleas for mercy don't even sound as nice as hers. Why should I give you a chance?"
The light of hope in Elise's eyes burned even brighter, while the other two plunged into despair.
Li Yu put the last piece of fried meat into his mouth, still not awakening the Red Lotus State, which made him feel somewhat regretful.
At the same time, he also lost the mood to spout nonsense with these people, casually picking up the towel handed over by Stanley nearby to wipe his mouth.
When he looked up again, everyone present faintly felt an invisible majesty.
Elise was horrified to discover black lightning roaming in the Void around them.
Soul-Shaking Heaven, who had been Buying Soy Sauce on the side, felt threatened by those lightning bolts and immediately stood up straight.
Crack!
The black lightning exploded, striking straight into the heads of Elise and the other two. However, the scene of heads exploding that everyone expected didn't occur.
The pupils of the three abruptly dilated, and then they fell down stiffly.
"They all became empty shells?" Soul-Shaking Heaven sighed: "Their Spiritual Bodies were all annihilated. What a domineering Psychic Assault."
Li Yu couldn't be bothered with Soul-Shaking Heaven, merely sighing with regret in his heart. I'm afraid I'll have to keep eating pan-fried Godzilla steaks for this period of time.
Also, Clone Three finished the mission, but there is still no news of Clone One Vanished Without a Trace. But Superman's difficulty far exceeds a few giant beasts, which is understandable.
"Sigh... guess I'll wait..." Li Yu said faintly.
