Chapter 400: Deploying Again and the Dumbfounded Elton

~13 min read 2,514 words

Meanwhile, Li Yu was still continuing to deal with the Avatar Deployment issue. A few days ago, Clone One had already finished evolving and could begin deployment.

[Deploying world searching... Data analyzing... [World List] opened, Host please check.]

Three world names flashing with special colors appeared in front of Li Yu.

[The Matrix World]

Another Old Friend, not of much use to the current Li Yu, his gaze directly swept past it.

[Venom World]

Oh... Venom, Li Yu's eyes pondered slightly, this should be another parallel world, a world with only alien lifeforms like Venom.

The alien symbiotes inside weren't bad, could be a backup...

[Sharknado World]

With these three times placed in front of him, only [Venom World] was somewhat useful. The alien symbiotes inside seemed to have more development potential.

But high probability it also needed to rely on the System's enhancement, otherwise it would be hard to help him right now.

[Task Mode]––[Venom World]––[Acquire Alien Symbiote––Carnage]

Li Yu originally subconsciously wanted to acquire the protagonist "Venom".

But he Suddenly remembered that in the movie world, Carnage was actually stronger, not Venom.

[Clone One deployed successfully, please check the Task Log after the task ends.]

It feels really good to be full of anticipation every day. Li Yu was in a joyful mood, lying on the Seat.

.........

Three days later, above the Base, a massive mechanical Giant Cannon spanned across. Its structure was complex, looking quite luxurious and exquisite, the muzzle thick and deep.

A large number of Mechanical Rings were sleeved on different parts of this mechanical Giant Cannon. These were extra bolstered Energy Stabilization Devices.

To provide stability for the mechanical Giant Cannon when it operated under high-intensity energy supply.

The Staff Member responsible for transporting this giant Weapon respectfully said beside Li Yu:

"...Your Excellency Duke, this is the 'Sone Grand Cannon', specially dismantled from a Main Ship. However, using this Giant Cannon requires a massive energy supply..."

This was an advanced Weapon from Returning Star, adopting a High-Energy Reaction device, which could allow the energy infused into it to produce even greater destructive power.

At 100% full power, it could shoot out a destructive death ray of up to 3,000,000-cal, carrying the title of "Little Star-Destroying Cannon".

It was just that the charging time was also a big problem, extremely time-consuming, requiring a massive energy supply.

Following the Staff Member's operation, this mechanical Giant Cannon slowly shrank, finally becoming only one-tenth of its original size, and was carefully lifted into his Base.

This was a big meal prepared for the [Titan Symbiotic Armor], along with several special pieces of equipment. For example, after he became an Honorary Duke, the [Planet-Breaker Armor] tailor-made for him by Returning Star.

Although the name sounded nice, it was actually just standard-issue Armor, only the materials used were relatively precious, counting as an A-rank armor, and was also swallowed by the [Titan Symbiotic Armor].

And the supporting equipment brought by becoming the Black Pupil Fleet commander was exchanged by him for that mechanical Giant Cannon just now.

Becoming a High Echelon figure still had quite a few hidden benefits. At least he had already obtained a set of A-rank armor and the mechanical Giant Cannon from just now.

Throwing the [Titan Symbiotic Armor] onto the mechanical Giant Cannon, letting it eat slowly by itself, Li Yu's eyes flickered, hmm... Soul-Shaking Heaven and Stanley should have arrived too, right.

.........

"Twenty thousand Star Coins!"

"Twenty-five thousand Star Coins!"

"Forty thousand Star Coins!"

"Forty thousand going once, forty thousand going twice... anyone else bidding? Alright, forty thousand third time, this graceful [Gora Cat-person] belongs to buyer No. 147."

On a certain planet, in a surface city, inside a private castle, a Black Market auction was ongoing.

The auction site was a circular hall. In the center was a display stand, placing the auction items, with auction personnel introducing them from the side.

And the surrounding walls were distributed with densely packed virtual screens. Each screen represented a Black Market buyer participating remotely in the auction, everyone's Identity kept secret.

Because it was a remote auction, after it ended, the auction items would be sent to the buyers' designated locations through the Black Market's interstellar logistics channels.

However, there were also quite a few Black Market personnel on site, sitting in front of neatly arranged Round Tables, each drinking wine, pointing and gesturing at the auction items on the display stand, occasionally also making bids.

At this moment, in the Cage on the display stand, there was a pitiful cat-person, tender pink ears curled up on top of her head, eyes filled with tears.

Her palms and soles were all furry beast hooves, pink meat pads clearly visible, the extended sharp claws trimmed, completely losing lethality.

The white fur on her body barely covered the crucial parts, large areas of white skin exposed outside, her tail also losing vitality, drooping on the ground.

Such a pitiful scene didn't arouse anyone's pity, but instead made the atmosphere in the venue even more intense.

It was even exactly her pitiful expression that made her price far exceed other peers.

In a corner of the hall, a Black-Robed Figure silently drank purple liquid, his entire body covered tightly. Even the hand holding the Wine Glass was wearing a Glove.

On his wrist, the somewhat shabby-looking Smart Terminal vibrated slightly. He hurriedly put the Smart Terminal into his clothes, fluorescent blue light shining through.

Perhaps seeing the desired answer, he abruptly stood up, attracting the Attention of several people nearby, drained the liquid in the Wine Glass in one gulp, and then hurriedly left here.

"According to the location information provided by Lord Claptrap, it should be that person."

"I'm going to follow him, Lord Soul-Shaking Heaven..." In another corner, someone raised his head, looking in the direction the other party left.

"Go... I am here." An ethereal voice reached Stanley's ears.

"With His Highness Titus making a move, Li Yu can definitely be killed!" Elton clenched his fists, lowering his head, hurriedly walking through the crowd.

This was a small Black Market, a mixed bag of people, with people from various Interstellar Races. His attire didn't attract anyone else's Attention at all.

His hatred for Li Yu had already penetrated deep into his bones. If it wasn't for that guy, how could he, a dignified A-rank lifeform, hide in this Black Market, not daring to show his true face to people.

Before his Identity went through layers of verification, the words he spoke simply didn't have any effect.

Could it be just someone popping out from some Hidden Corners, casually framing Li Yu with two sentences, and then he would be subjected to an investigation.

If that were the case, his current Honorary Duke Identity would be too worthless.

Elton must undergo verification by Returning Star's High Echelons before he could restore his true Identity. Only the words spoken at that time would pose a threat to Li Yu.

So before that, his Identity absolutely could not be exposed.

If Li Yu or Vimala knew of his existence, they would definitely hunt him down at any cost.

He could die, but before he died, he must kill Li Yu first!

"You definitely couldn't have thought that I could crawl out from hell!?"

His eyes were cold and sinister. As he got closer and closer to this target, Elton's mood also became more and more excited.

It was just that as he walked, his footsteps suddenly paused slightly. At the same time, not far behind him, a certain figure also suddenly stopped in his tracks.

And as he advanced again, the figure behind also followed up again.

Someone trailing?

Elton narrowed his eyes, a sense of urgency suddenly rising in his heart. Could it be Li Yu?

But the next moment, he erased this possibility. According to Titus's news, Li Yu was still in the Central Star System.

Is it his Subordinates?

Elton knew the news of his escape couldn't possibly be hidden from Li Yu. The other party was also definitely searching all over the world for him.

But his own movements were secretive. Even the Shuttle Spaceship used for escape and the Backup Smart Terminal acquired from the Spaceship.

Had long been abandoned by him, and during this period he had changed transportation tools multiple times.

All using fake Identities, plus Smuggling Ships. He believed he hadn't left any tail behind. It was impossible for Li Yu to trace his tracks.

Thinking of this, his mind relaxed slightly. Maybe he was too nervous, perhaps just some blind guy in the Black Market had his eyes on him.

This was the Black Market, having this kind of situation was very normal.

Thinking of this, he gradually walked towards a sparsely populated corner.

"He discovered me..." Stanley's voice was low and deep, but not surprised, seeming as if being discovered by Elton was also within expectations.

Soul-Shaking Heaven reminded: "He is after all an A-rank lifeform. Even if he hasn't recovered to his peak period right now, he cannot be underestimated."

"I understand, Lord Soul-Shaking Heaven..." Stanley also lowered his head, shuttling through the crowd.

Turning a corner, what appeared before Stanley was a dead end, and Elton's figure had long disappeared.

"Daring to trail me with just this bit of skill?" A cold and sinister voice sounded by Stanley's ear, the black robe fluttering.

Unknowingly, Elton's figure had actually emerged beside him.

He didn't hesitate at all, having already made a move on Stanley. The fist under the black robe was wrapped in a layer of cyan airflow, mixed with sharp wind blades.

An ordinary B-rank lifeform facing this strike wouldn't have any ability to resist.

Although his Strength hadn't recovered to its peak, during this period, he had at least replenished quite a lot of Nutritious Substance from the outside.

Unlike when he had just escaped, lacking any strength to fight back.

Clang!

Sparks shot out. Elton's pupils contracted. He saw the other party's body surface covered in a layer of white Nano-Armor, actually directly blocking this strike of his.

Then, an even more surprising thing happened to him. He saw a blurry light and shadow shoot out from the other party's body, accompanied by a cold laugh.

"What is this thing?"

Clearly, Elton hadn't come into contact with this kind of pure Spiritual Body.

He had a bad feeling in his heart, and couldn't care about hiding his Identity. Terrifying cyan airflow surged out overwhelmingly, forming a cyan vortex connecting heaven and earth.

Some nearby buildings were directly torn apart, steel veins twisting, leaving ruins all over the ground.

This was just an ordinary small Black Market, when had they ever seen such a grand spectacle. Numerous Interstellar Races revealed terrified expressions, and then fled in a hurry.

Unfortunately, even if the cyan tornado was any more terrifying, it was hard to cause effective damage to Soul-Shaking Heaven.

"Haha..."

A sinister laugh came. Elton frowned tightly, vigilantly looking around. Then his vision went black, feeling as if he hit a heavy metal wall, his consciousness starting to become blurry.

Psychic Assault!?

Only at the final moment did he realize what exactly was going on.

As he lost consciousness, the cyan tornado wreaking havoc nearby also gradually dissipated. Stanley stood not far away, slowly approaching.

"Can let the Lord come over..." Stanley clicked a few times on the Smart Terminal.

Immediately, his face stiffened, a powerful Aura erupting from him. In Soul-Shaking Heaven's perception, it was like a powerful existence suddenly descending.

Stanley's expression changed slightly, his eyes flashing with a strange color, feeling very novel.

"Chief God..." Soul-Shaking Heaven hurriedly said respectfully, secretly pondering at the same time, the Chief God is becoming more and more formidable.

The current Stanley was naturally Li Yu who had descended relying on [Force Projection].

"Mm..." Li Yu nodded, placing his gaze on the unconscious Elton not far away.

With a light lift of his palm, the other party floated over. Then his gaze condensed slightly, a massive amount of The Force surging out, instilling into the other party's body, starting to perform modifications.

Originally Li Yu's plan was to wait until Elton returned to the Central Star System, and then use the ability of the [Seed of the Voice] to control him.

But now having this [Force Projection] ability, he also had a better choice.

As long as Elton was modified into a Force possessor, he could directly Usurp. This was clearly more secure, and also handier to operate.

That's why Li Yu had Stanley and Soul-Shaking Heaven make this trip.

As time passed, the Force Li Yu consumed also increased. This was his first time modifying an A-rank lifeform, he didn't expect it would consume so much Force.

When using this [Force Projection] ability, one must continuously consume The Force. Now the speed of The Force draining was even pouring out like a flood.

Fortunately, he was already a Level Six Mental Body, and his Force was considered abundant, barely completing the modification of Elton.

"Phew..." Li Yu let out a long breath and said: "You guys also hurry up and leave here, don't let him discover too many abnormalities."

"Claptrap, also extract your subprogram from the Smart Terminal, don't let Titus discover something is wrong."

Although Elton had changed his accompanying electronic devices multiple times during his escape.

But as long as there was a network nearby, Claptrap could infiltrate Elton's electronic devices Gods unaware, ghosts unknown, and lock onto the other party's location at any time.

"Yes..."

As Li Yu's consciousness extracted, Stanley also recovered his own consciousness. After taking over his body again, he had an inexplicable feeling of trance.

Shaking his head, he and Soul-Shaking Heaven hurriedly left here.

Not long after, Elton slowly woke up. As soon as he woke up, he instantly got up, vigilantly looking around.

However, besides ruins, there were only various broken corpses. The enemies from just now had disappeared.

What happened?

A small question mark popped up on his big head?

The enemy knocked him out, and then left?

He frowned tightly, carefully checking his body, and didn't find any strange traces, only faintly sensing something deep inside his body stirring restlessly.

Moreover, he felt as if an extra big mountain was on top of his head. This was just a relatively abstract metaphor.

A more appropriate description was like when he did something bad as a child, afraid of his father's punishment. At that time, his father was the big mountain on top of his head.

This Baffling feeling, he didn't know where it came from.

"What exactly is going on here?" He couldn't help but shout in a low voice, extremely irritable, yet no one could tell him the answer.

Pondering on the spot for a long time, he finally calmed his mood. No matter what he encountered, it would be fine once he returned to the Central Star System.

That was one of the safest places in the entire Interstellar space.
