Chapter 556: Start the Fight
Fire Element Dimension Outpost 3, this was a relatively ordinary peripheral outpost of the Abyss Institute.
Located in the Iveco Independent Star Domain – Bosa Star System, there was a very common Fire Elemental Dimension World nearby.
This kind of elemental Dimension World was extremely common. The Abyss Institute held a great many of them in their hands, basically adopting an over-exploitation approach.
Extracting all resources at the fastest speed possible; anyway, there were plenty of these elemental Dimension Worlds.
Its person in charge was a red-skinned Red Lizard. At this moment, he was lying in the base's Lounge, with several Pink Lizards squatting beside him massaging his tail.
Although his appearance was rather bizarre, it still conformed to the Aesthetics of the Lizard-Person race itself.
However, this leisurely time did not last long. The blaring alarm throughout the base made him jolt, rushing from the Lounge to the Command Center.
The Command Center was already in chaos. The Holographic Screen displayed suddenly invading enemies—a black fleet.
"Transformation Legion!?" Red Lizard's pupils shrank, and the Scale Armor all over his body involuntarily stood on end.
Red Lizard didn't expect that he would have the "fortune" to encounter them.
"Quick, inform the Headquarters!" he reprimanded sternly.
"Report, the communication signal has already been blocked, but the external Defending Forces should have already reacted." Someone quickly reported.
The moment the Transformation Legion descended, they blocked the signals of the entire planet.
But the Abyss Institute had long thought of countermeasures. They had spread their Defensive Front around the outposts.
In fact, it meant dispatching a large number of warships to patrol the Star System.
The enemy couldn't block the signals of the entire Star System in an instant.
This gave them the chance to send warnings.
At the same time, the Abyss Institute Headquarters also received the alarm and quickly reported it upward.
"Truly unrepentant. Give me a few people, I will kill him to death!" Crystal Emperor stared at the screen; this was a scene monitored by an Exploration Vessel.
An attack had already erupted on the periphery of the planet where the outpost was located.
"This is the outpost located in the Iveco Sector, one of the key targets likely to be attacked. We have already constructed a temporary Stargate on the periphery and can arrive quickly."
A subordinate reported.
"Leader, this is a rare opportunity. Send a few more people, and we can definitely take him down!" Crystal Emperor said, Impatient. The surface of his body had recovered its crystal-clear and smooth appearance.
"The Iveco Sector is extremely far from the Baltan Galaxy..." The Leader frowned. "And precisely at this time..."
He had just received the news that the Light Dimension had completed its preparations for fusion, and right here, Li Yu attacked the outpost in the Iveco Sector.
Wasn't it a bit too coincidental?
He subconsciously felt that something was wrong.
However, it was impossible for Li Yu to know the exact time of the Dimensional Fusion.
His suspicion also had no evidence to support it.
"Crystal Emperor, you take the Fire God, and you two go stop Li Yu," the Abyss Leader said after a moment of hesitation.
"Only the two of us..." Crystal Emperor was somewhat hesitant.
If it were only the two of them, it would probably be very difficult to pose a substantial threat to Li Yu.
"You don't need to take him down, just stop him," the Leader shook his head, then spoke solemnly: "This is a critical moment; I don't want to disperse too much of our forces."
Seeing the Leader's resolute attitude, Crystal Emperor didn't insist anymore and could only leave resentfully.
………
"Primordial Celestial Sovereign, we detected Spatial Fluctuations on another planet in this Star System." Lingbao said in a low voice.
"Good, mark the location. Once the enemy's people arrive, you go and destroy it." Li Yu wasn't surprised at all; he knew the other party would definitely construct a temporary Stargate to quickly reach the battlefield.
But this Stargate wouldn't be on this outpost planet, to avoid a Space Lockdown rendering it unusable.
So right from the start, he had people Monitor the Spatial Fluctuations of the entire Star System to locate the enemy's Stargate.
Several Transformers left secretly. Before long, two streams of Flowing Light pierced through the planet's Atmosphere, descending forcefully.
One of them was the old acquaintance Crystal Emperor, and the other was a lifeform burning with flames all over its body, looking like a pure elemental lifeform.
"Li Yu, I didn't expect you would actually dare to attack our outpost. Did you really think we were completely unprepared?" Crystal Emperor said coldly, "This time, I'll make sure you don't return."
Although he didn't have much confidence in keeping Li Yu here, it didn't stop him from bragging.
"Only two came?" Li Yu stared at the two, his expression somewhat disappointed; he thought at least three would come.
The Abyss Institute Leader was truly cautious, avoiding dispersing forces too much?
Li Yu pondered, but drawing two over was always better than none. His eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled: "I was wondering who it was, turned out to be the black egg who fled in a hurry last time."
Crystal Emperor was furious in his heart. The incident from last time kept brooding in his mind, not just because of the failure, but more because he almost died there.
"Take my attack!" Li Yu took out the Black Cross and blasted out a Black Energy Column.
Seeing this Black Energy Column, the scene from last time instantly surfaced in Crystal Emperor's mind, and he fiercely yanked Fire God beside him to retreat.
Fire God was still a bit bewildered. Was the intensity of this Energy Beam worth the two of them retreating?
Could it have some hidden lethal power?
Crystal Emperor at least faced Li Yu head-on last time, so he must be more experienced. Consequently, he just followed Crystal Emperor to retreat.
However, that Black Energy Column seemed to have locked onto the two of them; no matter how they dodged, it stubbornly followed closely behind them.
Crystal Emperor gritted his teeth and said: "Fire God, use your strongest defensive measure in a moment. With the two of us joining forces, we can definitely block this attack."
"Alright!" Fire God also replied solemnly. Sure enough, there was definitely something fishy about this attack.
In an instant, the two stopped their figures simultaneously. A large amount of crystals began to spawn, forming a crystal barrier that flickered with Luminescence.
And Fire God's body surged with overwhelming Crimson Flame, attaching to the crystal barrier. The two jointly defended, responding to the attack.
Following that, the Black Energy Column bombarded over. The terrifying energy collision cracked the planet's Ground. The expanding energy sphere formed at the impact point rapidly exploded, and a Light Beam shot straight into the sky, tearing apart the Atmosphere.
This was Crystal Emperor's Energy Reflection technique.
Looking from Outer Space, the whole planet seemed to be grinning, severely damaged.
However, at this moment, Crystal Emperor was a bit bewildered. "Eh, this Power Level isn't right?"
Fire God was even more bewildered than him. Are you asking me?
Weren't you the one pulling me to run?
I thought this attack was so terrifying, but it turned out to just be this?
Crystal Emperor frowned tightly. Back then, when he saw this attack, he subconsciously thought of last time and didn't think much at all.
Simply put, his PTSD acted up. He didn't expect that this attack could not be mentioned in the same breath as the last one at all.
The two dispelled their defensive measures, and everything before their eyes left them even more confused. They saw that all the enemies, including Li Yu, had vanished.
There was nothing in the sky.
"They... retreated?" Crystal Emperor was somewhat uncertain.
At the same time, a Holographic Screen popped up in front of Crystal Emperor. Red Lizard's throat bobbed, and he said in a low voice: "My two Lords, I just received news that the temporary Stargate was subjected to an unknown attack and has been destroyed."
"Oh no, he intentionally lured the two of us over here!" Fire God suddenly reacted:
"Hurry and inform Headquarters to confirm Li Yu's true target!"
………
At the same time, in the Baltan Galaxy – Light Dimension peripheral outpost, Li Yu walked out from a Dimensional Rift and said: "There are two A4s over there who can't rush back in a short time. We can make our move."
"I will first tear open a Dimensional Rift so your Hyperspace Transmission channel can lock on."
"However, let's designate our battlefield outside first. This way, they won't know the Flower of Devourment has already started multiplying."
Everyone nodded. This was a battle plan decided long ago, to draw all the enemy's combat power to the external battlefield.
Inside the Light Dimension, there would be no force capable of destroying the Flower of Devourment.
"Then, let's begin!" A smile surfaced at the corner of Li Yu's mouth as he looked at the emerald green planet below.
"Abyss, your grandpa is here!" Felon let out a furious roar, startling everyone.
He took the lead, wielding two Mechanical Great Hammers, plummeting toward the planet below like a meteor from outer space.
Boom!
The Defense System on the planet's periphery was activated, with glowing blue light patterns forming a thick Energy Barrier.
Felon's figure landed on it, instantly stirring up energy ripples. This Chibi Giant was exceptionally manic, smashing continuously with his mechanical heavy hammers. Every strike triggered a violent energy resonance reaction.
The internal structures of the mechanical heavy hammers unfolded layer by layer, like two giant mountains, simultaneously possessing energy resonance and electromagnetic interference to break through the Defense Barrier.
And the moment he made his move, the highest level of warning sounded inside the outpost on this planet.
Soldiers poured out, the ground cracked open, and a large number of Energy Cannons emerged, aiming at the sky.
"As expected of a key protection target. This level of defense system specifications is very high," Li Yu couldn't help but remark.
He had attacked so many peripheral outposts of the Abyss, and basically none had constructed a planetary-level Defense System.
The last time he saw an Energy Barrier covering an entire planet was at the Meditation Organization Headquarters.
"It being high is useless." A sharp gleam flashed in Yasini's eyes. His hand had already touched the Long Sword on his back, and his entire aura rapidly surged.
This bro's Evolutionary System was very unique. It didn't belong to mainstream Evolutionary Systems; it was more like something obtained from some backward planet.
However, being able to evolve to this extent was still very astonishing.
The Long Sword on his back looked unadorned, but it was also a mechanical sword integrating a large number of technological means.
The sword body split open, the internal Energy Engine running at high speed. The white sword gleam was world-shocking, like a sword that could split the sky, cleaving toward the planet below.
However, before the tens of thousands of meters long sword gleam could fall, it was melted by an invisible force, like winter snow encountering a blazing sun.
This made his expression change slightly. He didn't know when, but a group of lifeforms with an extremely massive Aura had already appeared outside the planet.
The person leading them was cloaked in a black robe, with only two eerie green lights casting from beneath the hood.
"The Abyss Research Institute Leader!" Yasini's expression drastically changed.
The speed of the other party's appearance far exceeded his imagination; they indeed valued this place highly.
"How... did you know?" A dead silent voice sounded in the channel.
Although he didn't specify exactly, everyone knew the other party was referring to the specific time of the Light-Shadow Dimension Fusion.
No one responded to him, and Li Yu suddenly felt an extremely sharp gaze.
"Li Yu, your courage, really..." He continued to speak, but halfway through his sentence, he suddenly shut his mouth and abruptly turned his head.
He saw a Black Energy Column suddenly intruding into his field of vision, rapidly approaching at an inconceivable speed!
A burst of inexplicable sense of crisis abruptly rose in his mind.
"Such massive Energy!" He was secretly shocked.
This Energy Beam emanated terrifying Energy Fluctuations that made one tremble, and because of the angle...
If he dodged, it would inevitably penetrate the entire planet. Based on its Power Level, it might even affect the Light Dimension.
His expression changed slightly. He didn't just sit and watch this Energy approach him. He extended a withered pale hand, and invisible power emanated. The surrounding space seemed to turn into a quagmire, beginning to twist and deform.
Yasini said in a low voice: "The abilities of this generation's Abyss Institute Leader are very mysterious. He has had several battle experiences, but it's very hard to grasp his detailed information."
The twisting property of the space began to extend infinitely, seemingly trying to forcefully disrupt the trajectory of the Black Energy Column.
But it had no effect at all. The tyrannical Black Energy Column directly destroyed this Disruption.
The twisted space was shattered, Void Turbulence gushed out, and a Magnetic Energy Storm exploded.
The distance between the two rapidly closed in. The high-level lifeforms surrounding the Abyss Institute Leader simultaneously shot out in all directions.
In the next moment, the two violently collided.
In an instant, the detectors of every warship present produced activity simultaneously, the displayed Energy Fluctuation instantly breaking through the peak value!
At the location where the two collided, a blindingly intense light abruptly lit up, as if a star had bloomed out of thin air.
A figure flew backward, the spewing blood directly evaporated by the Residual Energy generated by the collision.
In the instant of the collision, his thinking seemed to stagnate. He only felt his vision blur, and terrifying power swept over his whole body.
After regaining his senses, he found his body was out of control, having been directly sent flying by the impact.
Since entering this tier, he rarely encountered anything he couldn't block.
Yet the terrifying Energy contained in this Black Energy Column made him involuntarily feel a sense of inability to rival it.
"So much nonsense," Li Yu muttered a sentence.
At this moment, the Death Star hidden on another planet retracted the several-thousand-meter-long Silver-White Mechanical Sniper Rifle.
At the same time, the [Hawkeye's Emblem] vanished from his palm.
