Chapter 609: Sneak Attack, I Smash a Gauntlet in Your Face
In the conference room of the Abyss Institute Headquarters, the Abyss Sovereign had a dull expression, as if shocked by something.
"Are you saying that this Titan Sanctuary is actually fake news released by the Star Glory Empire, just to bait you into taking the hook?"
The Abyss Sovereign was somewhat dumbfounded. Just now, this guy named Coulson told him that the Fourteenth Titan Temple didn't exist at all, and was just fake news released by the Star Glory Empire.
This shocked him not lightly. After all, they had paid quite a price for the Titan Sanctuary previously.
To suddenly learn this news now was too outrageous.
"But..." He looked hesitant, as if feeling something wasn't right.
What he didn't notice was that during the narration just now, Li Yu had gotten extremely close to him.
Under the shock of the fake news regarding the Titan Sanctuary, combined with the innate Affinity brought by Coulson, the mind of this Abyss Sovereign had somewhat slipped.
And right at this moment, the Smart Terminal on his arm suddenly vibrated. He subconsciously looked down.
In an instant, various buff states applied themselves to his body, and the Infinity Gauntlet emerged on his palm.
Three incomparably dazzling gems emitted unparalleled radiance, directly smashing towards the Abyss Sovereign's head.
Although the distance between the two was extremely close, the Abyss Sovereign still noticed something was wrong the moment Li Yu made his move.
What's going on!?
In that split second, he didn't even have time to carefully think about what happened, and could only react based on instinct.
Furious energy surged out. The Abyss Sovereign's fist ignited with dazzling radiance, heading straight for Li Yu's body.
The distance between them was extremely close. He no longer had time to mount an adequate defense, and could only substitute defense with offense, forcing the other party to pull back and defend, otherwise, he would have to endure this blow head-on.
Bang!!
He could feel his fist solidly smash into the other party.
In the next moment, terrifying energy violently exploded, erupting from Li Yu's back and transforming into a cone-shaped Energy Shockwave, blasting a massive gap in the entire room.
Boom!
Looking from the outside, the Black Palace abruptly shot out a dazzling Light Beam from the inside out, as if an explosion had occurred inside.
And in this space, numerous High Echelon members noticed this commotion. Their expressions instantly changed drastically. They simultaneously sounded the alarm, but didn't rush directly here, instead heading to other locations.
And a moment before the Abyss Sovereign's strike hit Li Yu, the Infinity Gauntlet had already smashed onto his head.
The six eyeballs on his face exploded simultaneously, flesh and blood mixing into a paste. His entire face seemed to cave in.
And Li Yu, who had taken a heavy punch, didn't even sway, continuing his counterattack as if he were fine.
His other hand violently clamped onto the Abyss Sovereign's head, and he raised his leg for a heavy and powerful knee strike!
At the knee position of the Symbiotic Colonization Armor, layers of Blazing Sun Shields emerged.
Bang!
The Abyss Sovereign actually couldn't withstand this explosive immense force for a moment. His head was pressed down, coming into intimate contact with Li Yu's knee, causing a concussion.
Before he could recover from the momentary attack.
Li Yu clamped onto the Abyss Sovereign's head with one hand, and delivered a heavy blow to his arched back.
Crack!
The sound of a fracturing spine clearly entered Li Yu's ears. A noticeable break appeared in the Abyss Sovereign's spine. This continuous barrage of attacks caused massive damage to his Corporeal Form.
Crack!
A silver-white Thunder burst forth in the Void, directly blasting onto the Abyss Sovereign's body, causing his Corporeal Form to abruptly stiffen, almost paralyzing his perception.
But the next moment, the Abyss Sovereign forcibly suppressed the intense pain in his body, let out a furious roar, and the blood all over his body exploded. His withered Corporeal Form filled out, clearly having triggered his Explosive Potential.
The Aura of his entire person suddenly surged significantly.
The two fought in close combat. The Abyss Sovereign's shoulder directly slammed over, pushing Li Yu and crashing through metallic walls one after another, flying out like a meteor.
But Li Yu held the initial advantage. A series of attacks had already crippled the Abyss Sovereign. Under heavy injuries, the upper limit of his outburst was also suppressed.
This streak of Flowing Light crashed out of the Black Palace, tearing a bottomless trench in the Earth, destroying numerous mechanical devices along the way.
From various parts of this Base, streaks of Flowing Light continuously flew out, rapidly rushing towards here.
Boom!
Li Yu grabbed the Abyss Sovereign's body with both hands, and the Infinity Gauntlet erupted with terrifying Energy Fluctuations once again!
Rumble—
An expanding Energy Sphere, like a sun, instantly illuminated this space!
The explosion's Shockwave spread outwards, sweeping across the Ground. A large amount of mechanical equipment exploded, and more soldiers and Staff Members were torn apart.
The abruptly erupting Energy Fluctuations also caused the arriving numerous high-level lifeforms to halt their steps, staring anxiously at the center of the energy.
Right at this moment, the light gradually shrank and diminished, and a figure struggled to escape.
Thud!
The sound of falling to the ground rang out. Everyone's hearts shook, and they raised their eyes to look.
They saw the Abyss Sovereign lying on the ground like a dead dog. There was almost not a single piece of intact flesh on his entire body. He was severely injured and on the verge of death, with barely a breath left.
And although the other party also had injuries on his body, they were rapidly recovering at an inconceivable speed, almost returning to their original state in the blink of an eye.
"You... are Li Yu's... subordinate!" The Abyss Sovereign intermittently spat out a few words. His entire body was injured beyond recognition. More importantly, some of the injuries were completely unrepairable.
There was also that Thunder that accompanied the attacks. It had no warning whatsoever, yet its power was extremely formidable.
As well as the Infinity Gauntlet and the Symbiotic Colonization Armor. He had only seen these characteristics on Li Yu, so he could be certain!
The other party was definitely connected to Li Yu...
Yes, up to now, he still didn't suspect that the other party was Li Yu.
Hearing this, the crowd's expressions couldn't help but be somewhat horrified, staring closely at this balding Middle-Aged Man.
He was actually Li Yu's subordinate?
What audacity, daring to directly barge into their Abyss Institute Headquarters.
Right at this moment, a deep and anxious voice echoed throughout the entire space. Crystal Emperor hurried back. Upon returning to the Headquarters, without time to think much, he roared: "That guy is Li Yu's subordinate!"
"Be absolutely careful!"
A cold wind blew through the scene. The Abyss Sovereign felt somewhat sorrowful. How nice it would be if you could have come back a few minutes earlier.
Li Yu had a smile on his lips, looking at the hurriedly arriving Crystal Emperor.
Although that guy was some distance away, he still couldn't help but shiver. He hastily scanned the situation, and his expression instantly became somewhat dull.
Eh, why does that pile of rotten meat lying on the ground feel so familiar?
The space-time around the Abyss Sovereign began to distort, and some of the torn areas on his body began to self-repair. He distorted time in an attempt to rewind.
However, the recovery method that had previously been a hundred percent effective now had no effect whatsoever.
Green Runes swirled around the Abyss Sovereign, seemingly forcibly locking the space around him, making it difficult for him to rewind.
"What kind of method is this!?" The Abyss Sovereign was horrified inwardly. Just who was the other party to actually possess a method that could suppress time.
Even Li Yu didn't have this kind of method!
He could feel that previously, twisting his own time, as long as it wasn't too long, was as simple as stirring a river.
But now, the river had solidified, like a ten-thousand-ton Giant Stone, difficult to shake.
"Your Abyss Institute, it seems, is nothing more than this." Li Yu chuckled lightly. His eyes narrowed, and he directly vanished from his spot, continuing his charge towards the Abyss Sovereign to complete the kill.
The advantage of successfully infiltrating was not having to face the multiple layers of defensive measures on the perimeter of the Abyss Institute Headquarters.
Launching an attack directly from the inside, the resistance he faced would be much smaller.
It would be better if he had time to slowly set things up, but he also knew his Identity couldn't be hidden for long. The Abyss Institute weren't Idiots; it was impossible for them not to verify.
He used Istrala to make the Abyss Institute preemptively believe that he was either from The Forerunners or Li Yu's subordinate.
Then, through disguise, he gained the other party's limited trust. Finally, using bullshit information, he found the perfect opportunity to strike, directly severely injuring the Abyss Sovereign.
Then using the Time Stone to suppress the Abyss Sovereign's recovery methods. This way, a powerful combatant like the Abyss Sovereign was essentially crippled.
This was an extremely important step in his combat plan!
At the same time, gaps slid open on the surrounding Ground, revealing the Automated Defense Systems inside. The turrets rapidly rose.
Countless Multi-Barreled Turrets fired at Li Yu with a 'tut-tut-tut'.
Large-caliber Compressed Energy Beams formed a chain of light, continuously whipping around, chasing Li Yu's movement trajectory.
The Symbiotic Colonization Armor maintained a thick shield. The Compressed Energy Beams rained down like a torrential downpour, crackling as they hit it.
They could only cause rings of Energy Ripples on the surface of the shield. It looked like water droplets falling into a lake, lacking power.
But this was only because the shield's strength was too high.
Some missed beams hit the metal Ground or walls. The terrifying high temperature would instantly melt them, turning them into molten metal flows, and cause explosions as dense as physical matter.
Moreover, these defense turrets had high-precision tracking and prediction programs, capable of bombarding Li Yu with incomparable accuracy.
"The defense mechanism has already been activated, let's retreat first!" The expressions of the numerous High Echelon members shifted slightly. They hurriedly pulled their Boss up from the ground.
A semi-transparent Colored Bubble emerged from the Void, wrapping the crowd in an attempt to evacuate.
But this brief moment was already enough for Li Yu to break out.
Forced by necessity, two High Echelon members stepped out, wanting to stall for time.
However, their eyes revealed terror. It seemed that stepping out to stop Li Yu was not something they did Willingly.
Boom!
A ring of invisible The Force burst out from Li Yu's body, then shot out with a bang.
Under normal circumstances, using The Force was mostly invisible and intangible.
However, this time, due to extreme concentration, The Force flashed with a dazzling light, condensing into something substantial, extremely vigorous.
Like a Light Beam, even the sense of space around it was distorted. It instantly engulfed the figures of the two High Echelon members.
This The Force was like an energy light wave radiating destructive power. Just looking at it, the other High Echelon members could feel an eerie destructive force, as if it wanted to tear them to shreds.
One could well imagine what it felt like for the two people hit head-on.
Pfft!
The two were seen convulsing all over, unable to get up. Then, their heads exploded with a bang. Red and white flowed out freely, their brains having been shaken out.
"Looks like you were controlled. You can only blame your bad luck in associating with the wrong people." Li Yu didn't stop his footsteps, directly smashing towards that Colored Bubble. The Infinity Gauntlet solidly bombarded it.
The moment the two came into contact, Li Yu felt a peculiar sensation, as if he had really hit a bubble.
Bang!
The Colored Bubble exploded, dazzling brilliance surging forth, but the crowd within had already vanished.
"Interesting..." Li Yu abruptly turned his head, looking in another direction. He sensed that this group of people had appeared in another part of the Base, not too far from here.
His body continuously used Flash Teleportation, enduring the attacks from all directions, charging towards his target.
"For me, kill him!"
Energy Barriers rose around a mechanical fortress. The severely injured Abyss Sovereign had four or five tubes of highly concentrated Nutrient Solution inserted into his body.
But it was very difficult to cause effective repair to his injuries.
He was Gnashing Her Teeth. Although his eyes had exploded, he could still perceive the outside world through other senses.
Motherf*cker, he was actually sitting there like an Idiot before, listening to the other party spout nonsense.
"Rest assured. The defense mechanism has been activated, he won't be able to jump around for long," the others hurriedly spoke up.
And outside, all kinds of attack Weapons continuously emerged from the entire Base.
Various rays formed a multicolored Energy Torrent, attacking Li Yu from all angles, carrying deadly danger within their brilliance.
Even Li Yu felt a kind of pressure. These rays were all ultra-high compressed energy. Being able to be used in the defense of the Abyss Institute Headquarters, their attack strength naturally didn't need to be stated.
He didn't hesitate, directly summoning the Death Star. The moment the massive Death Star appeared, it caused the numerous Abyss Institute High Echelon members to freeze.
"How did he bring this thing in!?"
It was impossible for any object to directly pass through the outer Defense Line without their permission.
Which meant that this Death Star could only have been brought in by Li Yu.
But if it was smaller in volume, the crowd might not be so shocked. But the Death Star was truly massive. How could he possibly stuff it in his crotch and bring it in?
Subsequently, the crowd's expressions shifted slightly again. With an unexpected enemy added, could the internal defensive mechanism still hold?
The Abyss Sovereign wasn't that shocked. He knew Li Yu always had this kind of method. This wasn't a spatial technology, and he found it difficult to explain, merely saying in a deep voice:
"His relationship with Li Yu is not shallow. This Death Star has always been Li Yu's guard before."
The guess that the other party was Li Yu was on the tip of his tongue. However, with so many High Echelon members in the room, no one brought it up, instead agreeing:
"That's right, this guy might be someone from the Other-Dimensional Camp."
"Don't waste time, directly activate the Dimensional Vitalized Being!" The Abyss Sovereign sensed the Energy Fluctuations outside and said in a deep voice.
"If we activate the Dimensional Vitalized Being, after it ends, the Dimension world cluster we finally managed to construct will also fall apart," a High Echelon member said in a low voice.
"After this battle ends, this place would be abandoned anyway. He has already bypassed the main Defensive Front. I have already been severely injured by his sneak attack, plus the presence of the Death Star." The Abyss Sovereign's voice was muffled:
"These ordinary defense mechanisms are no longer effective against him. We must activate the Dimensional Vitalized Being!"
"Alright..." The numerous High Echelon members could only agree. Subsequently, in this Temporary Command Room, they rapidly issued several commands.
