Chapter 567: Steady Development
This matter wasn't considered a big deal to the current Li Yu. That guy who jumped the line might feel somewhat terrified because of this and wouldn't dare to continue jumping the line.
As for the people targeting Bart, he also couldn't be bothered to pursue the matter.
Although that group of people mainly did it to Brown-Nose, in a certain sense it could be considered venting for Klein, so pursuing those people was meaningless.
This was just a trivial little interlude. After taking nearly five hundred billion tons of alloy, he returned to the Jade Void Palace.
The next thing he had to do was very simple, and that was to wait for the scattered Dimension Explorers to discover new Dimension worlds, and then he would just go Devour them.
Clues regarding the Titan Sanctuary seemed to have fallen into a state of stagnation.
Whether on the surface or secretly, Interstellar Public Opinion basically revolved around the huge explosive news of the Abyss Institute vanishing without a trace.
He had already asked Anthony to figure out a way to send people to the Hisan Star System.
While temporarily unaware of the progress, he could only deduce the specific situation of the Titan Sanctuary by confirming whether there were any abnormalities at the target destination.
"Do you think the Star Glory Empire is full of Idiots?" Peyton, who was fiddling with some precision Instruments, stopped his movements and turned his head to look at Li Yu.
Li Yu shook his head, "It's exactly because I don't think the Star Glory Empire is full of Idiots that I came to ask you."
He wanted to ask Peyton what Loren meant by saying "It really was you guys" back then.
This kind of rather vulgar riddle still disgusted him for a few days.
And combining the context at the time, Li Yu believed that the target should be locked onto some organizations or civilizations that didn't want to Living off legacy from the Titan Civilization.
They had their own arrogance and wanted to carve out a unique path of civilization.
"You thought right..." Peyton nodded, his hands not stopping, seeming to be dissecting something.
The creature in his hands was ferocious and terrifying, with several arthropod-like torso parts covered in sharp barbs, looking like a natural-born hunter at first glance.
"The Star Glory Empire started exploring other paths a long time ago. In fact, the development of the entire Interstellar space is currently stagnant..." Peyton's words were very naked:
"This is the result of Living off legacy. The rapid development in the early stages all relied on the accumulation of the Titan Civilization. Now wanting to explore a new path, how could it be that simple..."
"What Loren spoke of should be a certain organization or civilization that has vanished into the long river of time."
Li Yu frowned slightly: "You don't know either?"
"I understand a little..." Peyton stood up and said: "After the Civilization's Demise of the Titans, the Interstellar space fell into Dead Silence for a very long time. Nobody knows how long this period was."
"Until the rise of the Star Glory Empire. Do you think those founders of the Star Glory Empire wouldn't know the price of relying on the Titan Civilization?"
Li Yu shook his head, "What they wanted was speed."
"Exactly..." A rare hint of mockery appeared on Peyton's face: "For a civilization, developing its own technological path from scratch is naturally the best."
"But the cosmic environment at the time wouldn't allow doing so."
"All organizations or civilizations with this stupid idea vanished into the long river of time."
This problem wasn't hard to think clearly about. Although the Titan Civilization was destroyed, it was still a broken highway; with some patching up, one could still race on it.
But if you wanted to build another highway from scratch, then the problem wouldn't just be patching up.
Remembering the civilization Li Yu had deeper contact with that carved out its own unique path, that would be the Amethyst Civilization.
They developed their own unique path of civilization, and the time it took wasn't short either.
As a result, they were almost played to ruins by him.
As for organizations like the Salvation Ark or the Abyss Institute, having eaten some leftover scraps of the rotting corpse, they could still play at the same Table with Li Yu.
As for a behemoth like the Star Glory Empire, Li Yu could only use the fabricated Other-Dimensional Camp to make them slightly Apprehensive.
If the Star Glory Empire also had arrogant thoughts and didn't want to Parroting Others, the one standing tall in the Interstellar space now would probably be another behemoth.
Li Yu now even suspected that Amethyst was an experimental field for the Star Glory Empire.
To see exactly how long it would take for a civilization developing a unique path to become usable.
The result was inevitably chilling. Without the support of the Star Glory Empire, many technological barriers couldn't be broken through.
In the end, they were even directly messed with by Li Yu to the point of almost collapsing.
"So after dominating the Interstellar space, the Star Glory Empire also started researching other developmental paths?"
"Yes, it's just that the problems brought about by relying on the Titan Civilization are quite huge." Peyton's tone was deep:
"All the blood flowing in the Corporeal Form of this massive empire is filled with decay and the stench of corpses. To change the blood, they have to first beat themselves half to death."
Li Yu glanced at Peyton in surprise: "Such deep words don't quite suit you."
Peyton paused and said: "My father told me this, when I was very young."
Li Yu suddenly understood.
"But I always vaguely feel that the Star Glory Empire is very anxious..." Li Yu rubbed his chin, whether it was that Forged Throne of God or changing lanes.
It always made Li Yu feel a sense of urgency, as if the Star Glory Empire was constantly moving forward without stopping.
Even trying every possible means to move forward, not daring to stop.
But according to its current Status in the Interstellar space, it didn't need to be so anxious at all.
Peyton agreed, stopping the movements of his hands: "You felt it too. This might be related to the demise of the Titan Civilization."
"What do you know?" Li Yu was obviously somewhat curious.
Unfortunately, Peyton didn't satisfy him; he didn't know the answer to this matter either.
Li Yu was quite disappointed and could only sigh continuously while going to handle the matter of Avatar Deployment.
The cooldown time for Number Three, who had snatched the Evil Crown for Li Yu, was almost up, and he could begin deployment.
[Searching for World Deployment... Analyzing Data... [World List] opened, please review.]
Li Yu opened the [World List], and three world names flashing with special colors appeared before Li Yu.
[Real Steel World]
[Fantastic Four World]
[Superman Returns World]
His eyes shifted slightly, and Li Yu directly passed on the other two worlds.
The [Superman Returns World] had no value to him at present.
Only the [Fantastic Four World] was somewhat interesting. After pondering for a moment, an idea surfaced.
[Fantastic Four World - Task Mode - Obtain sufficient Galactus Gene Samples]
That's right, he set his sights on Galactus. Although in the cinematic universe, Galactus was only a background board, bearing the title of Devourer of Worlds, he should have something.
Perhaps... the fourth Gene Chain would fall upon Galactus.
However, he wasn't certain of this point; he had to wait until the Gene Sample was brought back and wait for the System's explanation.
[Number Three successfully deployed. Please check the Task Log after the task concludes.]
After handling this matter and restraining his inner thoughts, he heard Peyton say: "The Genetic Structure of this creature is indeed very peculiar, just incomplete."
"It's similar to the offspring born from that Alien Queen, with only slight differences, which means their Ethnic Group has an existence identical to the Alien Queen."
"Yes, they are called the Zerg. In terms of developmental potential, they far exceed the Xenomorphs, it's just that their Queen... is somewhat troublesome, and we can't handle it either." Li Yu nodded and said.
This Zerg was created by Li Yu using the [Reality Stone].
He originally wanted to try creating a Queen directly, but unfortunately, the [Reality Stone] almost drained him to death and still couldn't even create one of the Queen's legs.
Obviously, it was unlikely to create this kind of extraordinary creature, a creature that tore Cosmic Rules to shreds.
Li Yu frequently used the [Reality Stone] to manufacture things. Whether it was from his past life or the peculiar items of this life, he had tried them all.
It's just that the things that could be created were extremely rare. Things like the [Super Soldier Serum] could be produced, but to him now, it had no effect whatsoever.
So he created a small Zerg, to see if Peyton could reverse-engineer the Queen's Genetic Structure.
"You overestimate me a bit... The key to this kind of creature doesn't lie in these offspring. Only the Queen is the most important; without the Queen, everything is useless."
Peyton shook his head, frankly admitting his shortcomings, yet added: "However, if there are enough biological samples, we might be able to let the Alien Queen absorb some of their advantages and gain a Buff."
"It can be done?" Li Yu's eyes lit up slightly. He really didn't hold much hope originally; after all, that Zerg stuff was too outrageous.
"If going by your description, the Alien Queen could probably achieve about one-fifth." Peyton estimated for a moment and said.
"That's enough..." Li Yu grinned. Since he was idle anyway, developing the potential of his subordinates wasn't bad either.
Casually creating a few small Zergs and throwing them to Peyton and the others, Li Yu then left.
During this time, Tu Ying had actually seen some golden symbols again. After filtering out the repetitive symbols, Li Yu obtained some information about the Life Titans.
This group of Life Titans were precisely the research fanatics among the Titan race.
Most of the Titan Creation ethnic groups in the Interstellar space, similar to Trolls, Four-Armed Titans, Mantis-Bladed Ape-Men... were basically all created by the Life Titans.
Their combat power was formidable, but they all had one unified problem, and that was low average intelligence.
Only occasionally would there be relatively smart mutated Tribesmen, similar to Tu Rui and Tu Ying.
This wasn't because the Life Titans' Technology wasn't up to par, but because they did it intentionally.
The reason was several creation rebellions. In the very beginning, the Life Titans completely didn't intentionally add anything into the genes of these creations.
This also caused every created being born to be perfect and powerful. Although initially inferior to them, their learning and evolutionary abilities could be considered top-tier.
This directly led to these creations, unwilling to exist as mere Test Subjects after becoming powerful, beginning to attack the Titans.
After several occurrences, the Life Titans had to tamper with their genes, suppressing their intelligence.
This was also the reason why a powerful race like the Trolls had only developed a tribal-level civilization on their Homeworld after experiencing such a long time.
"Although the Titans are dead, it seems their shadows are in every corner. I really hope you guys ascended as a whole race while exploring higher truths..." Li Yu sighed.
This was his true thought, otherwise, the real reason for the Titan Civilization's demise would only leave the possibility of external enemies.
How powerful must an enemy be to defeat the Titan Civilization? It certainly wouldn't be something the current Interstellar space could withstand.
"Forget it, even if the Universe collapses, there's still the Star Glory Empire holding it up, none of my damn business." Li Yu thought, his mood inexplicably improving again.
Flipping through the messages, Mo Duo had completely entered The Council's territory not long ago, and Li Yu also lost contact with her.
The Council was a magical place; even the Jade Void Palace's Dimensional Rifts couldn't be opened there, and it was also a signal Black Hole.
He lingered on Hel's name for a long time without initiating a connection.
Back then, the Imperial Noble Hel took away——Xia En, definitely had a problem; otherwise, why would the Star Glory Empire forge God's Throne.
Originally, there were many secrets regarding that incident back then, but since Li Yu had extricated himself from it, he hadn't cared too much.
After he discovered the Forged Throne of God, based on the information he grasped, the likelihood of this guy Xia En having a problem was very high.
When necessary, he could use the information on Xia En to have this Holy Maiden of the Night provide some help for Mo Duo, but not now.
He didn't know how Hel contacted the outside world, but since she had a way, Mo Duo should also quickly find a method.
If he contacted the other party now and revealed Mo Duo's information, it might instead cause accidents.
………
On a certain planet, two fleets, both bearing no insignias, were confronting each other in the Outer Space Layer, and the situation was very clear.
The smaller-scale unit wanted to leave this planet, but their path was blocked by the other fleet.
In the command ship of the blockading fleet, the Commander looked at the fleet prepared for combat before him, opened the broadcast channel, and said coldly:
"People of the Salvation Ark, leave the things and clues you obtained on this planet, and you might still have a chance to leave!"
As the words fell, the figure of a Female Being appeared on the screen in front of him, with several strands of white hair on both sides of her cheeks. At this moment, this woman's tone was resolute and decisive:
"Black Net, do you take us for Idiots!?"
Both parties clearly knew what the other's objective was, and without hesitation, a chaotic battle broke out.
Warships were destroyed, lighting up fireworks here.
The figures of A-Tier Lifeforms shuttled about, engaging in fierce combat with each other.
After a long time, the battle finally ended. The Outer Space Layer of this planet was floating with a massive amount of warship wreckage.
After paying a tragic price, the Salvation Ark's fleet ultimately succeeded in breaking through and swiftly left the area.
No one knew what they had obtained on this planet.
