Chapter 457: The Lies Are Getting Hard to Cover Up
"Phew, finally Con Salvation Ark just about enough." Li Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Conning people was also technical work.
Did Li Yu want to fight with Salvation Ark?
Of course he didn't want to either. Compared to the illusory Dimensional Camp behind him, Salvation Ark was a bona fide behemoth.
But the problem was that Salvation Ark wanted to cooperate and exchange Technology with the Camp through him.
This was impossible for Li Yu. Where would he go to get Technology for the Ark?
Now, verbal cooperation obviously couldn't delay Codri forever. There had to be a Work Once, Rest Forever method.
That's why he came up with such a method.
Creating a big shot who was at odds with Li Yu's faction, and then letting him reconcile with Salvation Ark.
Because if Li Yu himself reconciled with Salvation Ark, Salvation Ark would inevitably want to proceed to the next step: deep cooperation and Technology exchange.
But if Unicron reconciled with the Ark, and Unicron clearly showed discord with Li Yu's faction.
That would mean Codri couldn't contact the Dimensional Camp through Li Yu.
Because Li Yu was still unhappy, so how could he possibly act as a middleman for the Ark?
Originally, the Dimensional Camp only had Li Yu as an external window, but now Unicron Suddenly Appear.
Then the Ark wouldn't have to keep bothering him.
This way, he wouldn't have to provide Technology, and basically reconciled with the Ark. And the Ark also found another window to the Dimensional Camp—Unicron, and a big shot at that.
Naturally, they wouldn't keep offering him a friendly face only to be met with a cold shoulder. Everyone Is Greatly Happy.
As for Unicron's phone not going through?
Sorry, the big shot is very busy.
"Sigh, one lie needs countless lies to cover it up." Li Yu sighed. The lies about the Dimensional Camp were getting bigger and bigger, and now he had created another big shot.
It hadn't been long since the previous God of the Force was created.
Fortunately, with Emperor Death Star to prop things up, it wasn't too much of a stretch.
In case Salvation Ark got suspicious one day because the phone wouldn't connect, he would just let it come out for a stroll, which could buy him some more time.
Actually, he could have done this when the conflict with Salvation Ark first started, creating a lofty image of the Dimensional Camp.
But at that time, probably not many people would have believed it. Those large factions weren't so easily fooled.
The reason they firmly believed in the Dimensional Camp now was because after several massive battles, the authenticity of the Dimensional Camp's existence was irrefutable.
Moreover, Unicron immediately called out Salvation Ark's core secret, which made Codri firmly believe.
But in the beginning, Li Yu had nothing and couldn't Con them at all.
"Master, according to the report, the [Symbiotic Bio-Armor] has finished Devour."
Claptrap's voice interrupted Li Yu's thoughts. He organized his mind, temporarily put other matters aside, and prepared to see what changes had occurred in the [Symbiotic Bio-Armor].
Riding a Flying Vehicle to that warship, soldiers along the way paid their highest respects to their supreme commander.
Arriving at the bottom Cabin, the Cabin that was originally filled with flesh and blood remnants was now completely empty, and the metal Ground was incomparably smooth.
Even the bloody smell that the ventilation system couldn't completely disperse had also disappeared.
Right in the center of the Cabin floated a blood-red Armor, emitting a bizarre blood light. It was precisely the [Symbiotic Bio-Armor].
Its external appearance hadn't changed much, only the red had become deeper, and the tiny Protoplasmic Avatar tentacles on the surface were retracting.
It knew its master didn't want to see this sight.
Li Yu walked straight up. The [Symbiotic Bio-Armor] was already Impatient and quickly covered Li Yu's body surface.
As soon as he wore the [Symbiotic Bio-Armor], Li Yu felt a completely different sensation.
A powerful Strength continuously transmitted from the [Symbiotic Bio-Armor], as if giving him an Amplification.
"Interesting..."
Li Yu's eyes flickered. He immediately put on his [Virtual Goggles], digitized his body, and then carefully checked the status bar——
[Symbiote Armor: The special power from the [Symbiotic Bio-Armor]. After Devour the flesh and blood essence of a powerful Divine Spirit, this armor underwent a deep Metamorphosis.
It can share its own Strength, making the Host Body even stronger.]
The symbiote inherently complemented the Host Body. Although it was now parasitizing the armor, it was actually also attached to Li Yu's body and could still exert this effect.
Li Yu arrived at the Training Room of the Main Ship. Although the specifications of the Training Room weren't Returning Star's highest level, it could still withstand an Impact of up to five million Energy Level.
According to Li Yu's calculations, the Amplification provided by the [Symbiotic Bio-Armor] caused his main body's combat Strength to rise significantly, and his burst Energy Level reached at least two million.
And Rohan's own Energy Level was obviously not just at this level, but his combat Strength didn't merely come from his own flesh and blood essence.
If he added other Amplification methods, he should be able to arm-wrestle with the previous Rohan, Li Yu estimated.
The Strength Amplification from the [Symbiotic Bio-Armor] put him in a very good mood, equivalent to having another combat method.
"What's going on with the armor on your body? I remember it was the Titan Colonization Armor before."
Horus's voice came from the corner. This old schemer had been hiding in the corner watching the whole time.
The Titan Colonization Armor wasn't considered a particularly precious item. It was equivalent to the Titans' Combat Armor and couldn't compare to those Titan Artifacts.
Horus had long discovered that Li Yu was wearing the Titan Colonization Armor, but didn't pay it much mind.
However, today's discovery made him somewhat surprised. This armor probably didn't have half a cent of relation to the Titan Colonization Armor.
"Maybe my armor felt its master wasn't strong enough, so it mutated on its own." Li Yu shrugged, gathering the [Symbiotic Bio-Armor].
Recently, this Old geezer Horus had been trying everything to pry some intelligence out of his mouth.
Moreover, Siegel was almost getting depressed by Horus. What kind of situation was it to have a middle-aged Man staring at his wife all day?
Horus could already ignore Li Yu's frequent nonsense, staring closely at the [Symbiotic Bio-Armor], making Li Yu also experience Siegel's feeling.
"Fuck, no wonder Siegel has been gloomy recently; it is quite creepy." Li Yu muttered.
More importantly, Horus's Strength was too strong. Siegel had nowhere to hide in front of him; he couldn't hide even if he wanted to.
This made him, who originally liked to hide in the shadows, suffer even more.
However, Horus knew this kid Li Yu had quite a few bad ideas and wasn't easily manipulated like Siegel. He didn't stare for too long, looking away and saying deeply:
"According to the report from the Exploration Vessel, both of the Star Glory Empire's legions have undergone massive transfers. They must have calculated the specific coordinates."
"But their Warp location is very hard to determine."
This news was within Li Yu's expectations. Ever since Glazed Star tipped him off, he knew this day would come sooner or later.
The Warp location of the Troll Legion and the Four-Armed Titan Legion was indeed very hard to determine.
And because of Donovan's presence, the undercover Transformers Enlighten during battles were also cleared by the opponent. It was very difficult to lock onto the target through this point.
Donovan had suffered greatly from this method, so his memory of it was incomparably deep.
And it was very difficult for Della and Glazed Star to pass on messages anymore.
However, this couldn't stump Li Yu. Even if he couldn't find the location of the Star Glory Empire's two legions, he could always find the coordinates of others.
The Reformers had swept up such a massive force; it was impossible for every faction to have strict discipline and be difficult to infiltrate like the Star Glory Empire's legions.
Li Yu absolutely didn't believe that after the Reformers had plotted for so long, they would be Helpless just because two legions blocked the news.
Horus then said: "Based on the information you provided, Returning Star has already been closely monitoring those armed resistance forces."
"There should be news returning very soon."
"Mm, no rush." Li Yu was quite calm. When the battle broke out, according to the estimated situation, they would definitely make it in time.
"Also..." Horus hesitated for a moment before speaking: "The Queen is urging, when will your people arrive at Returning Star?"
Li Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, asking: "Is it about to start?"
"Not yet..." Horus shook his head: "But it will take some time for your people to travel to Returning Star, right? Could they possibly arrive just as it starts?"
In fact, this was just a superficial excuse. Vimala also wanted to observe the Strength sent by the Dimensional Camp up close to formulate a plan.
"Don't worry, we will definitely be present when it starts." Li Yu reassured.
But this sentence obviously lacked any persuasiveness. Horus thought Li Yu didn't understand, and simply said directly: "The Queen's intention is to understand the Strength of that 'God of the Force'. Do you understand?"
Li Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and also said directly: "Don't worry, the Strength of that God of the Force is very high."
"How high? Do you have specific data?" Horus pressed.
"This high..." Li Yu made a gesture, raising it above Horus's head.
Horus's dead fish eyes stared at Li Yu, sending chills down Li Yu's spine.
Li Yu withdrew his arm and changed the subject: "In short, tell the Queen not to worry. We are definitely her strong backing and will strongly support her."
Horus didn't continue speaking and turned to leave. He felt more and more that this matter was unreliable.
It wasn't a doubt about the Dimensional Camp, nor a doubt about the God of the Force, nor even a doubt about Li Yu.
It was just that the words "support from the God of the Force" oozed three words from the inside out—un-re-liable.
However, the Dimensional Camp shouldn't be playing them, right? According to Vimala's estimation, the other party had no need to do so. After all, she hadn't paid anything yet.
Even due to the delayed appearance of the God of the Force, Vimala hadn't temporarily counted him into her own Strength to avoid variables in the plan when the time came.
Still want to meet? You're thinking too much, where am I supposed to find a God of the Force for you, Li Yu secretly slandered.
………
Ten days later, new news came, not from Returning Star, but from Salvation Ark.
Codri stood in front of them with a serious face, looking at Li Yu and said: "We found traces of 'Star Mark'. There is one of our people among their High Echelons."
"Their Leader was indeed secretly plotting some things, but he temporarily didn't know what it was before. After receiving your news, we contacted him and locked onto the area they are currently located in."
"The Star Glory Empire's target should also be there."
Upon hearing this, Li Yu immediately praised: "As expected of Salvation Ark, informants everywhere, efficiency is even higher than Returning Star."
Hearing this sentence, Horus immediately shot him a glance but didn't speak.
However, when Codri heard this praise, his initially somewhat calm face instantly turned dark. He felt every word in this sentence revealed Li Yu's mocking face.
What did it mean that Salvation Ark's informants were everywhere? This was clearly a veiled mockery that they couldn't even find the Internal Traitor in their own organization.
Wasn't the High Echelon they placed in the "Star Mark" organization the same as the Internal Traitor the Dimensional Camp planted in Salvation Ark?
Actually, after receiving Codri's emergency message, the Leader of Salvation Ark immediately launched a Screening.
It's just that if this matter got out, it would probably cause a huge impact internally within Salvation Ark, so the Screening was only done in secret.
But after a preliminary round of screening, not a single suspicious target was filtered out.
It seemed like the words Utterly Loyal were carved on every High Echelon's face; their behavior style had nothing worth suspecting.
This made Codri's mood exceptionally heavy. Now, hearing Li Yu's "praising overtly but mocking covertly" words, he suddenly couldn't hold it in.
"We can't compare to the Dimensional Camp; your methods are what's called masterful." The resentment in Codri's words could hardly be concealed.
Li Yu could clearly feel Codri's displeasure and indeed felt it was somewhat Baffling. He hadn't offended him recently, right?
He even gave him Unicron's contact info. The conversation back then was quite pleasant, so why was this guy targeting him so much now?
Li Yu recalled carefully, his eyes flickering, faintly having some guesses.
At that time, he was only focused on increasing the credibility of the big shot Unicron, which was why he brought up the situation regarding The Overlord.
He wanted the Ark to think Unicron was unfathomable, but didnt carefully consider the impact of this matter on Salvation Ark.
Given how much Salvation Ark valued The Overlord, this was definitely a core secret.
Now that this news leaked, according to normal thinking, the first thing would probably be to suspect they had an Internal Traitor inside, right?
Li Yu figured this out, and his expression suddenly turned strange.
"They couldn't have secretly screened their own people and ended up with no results, right?"
Sensing the change in Li Yu's expression, Codri felt even more that he had guessed right, immediately snorting coldly, his face turning even uglier.
