Chapter 618: The Titan Sanctuary Opened in Advance?
Within the territory of the Sishank Civilization, a white Gas Giant Planet hovered here, as if it had existed since ancient times.
Streaks of Flowing Light shot over from afar as a fleet warped in.
This Gas Giant Planet was currently in a period of restlessness. The white gaseous energy flowing on its surface stirred up waves ten thousand meters high. Under the influence of a special power, it disturbed the spatial wave state around it.
Right at this moment, an invisible ring of fluctuation suddenly erupted from the several battleships that had Warped in. It spread rapidly, quickly sweeping across this planet.
The next moment, the Gas Giant Planet that was in an erupting state quieted down, and the boiling energy on its surface gradually tended towards tranquility.
Codri and Andrei stepped out of the Spaceship and hovered in interstellar space. Staring at the Gas Giant Planet before them, they slowly spoke through Mental Fluctuations:
"Andrei, are you sure you can make the Titan Sanctuary descend in advance?"
"Of course, I discovered this accidentally while executing a mission." Andrei nodded, looking confident.
Your missions were all fake, how could you possibly discover such a secret.
If Andrei's method was correct, then they would be ahead of all factions and could declare victory in this Battle for the Titan Sanctuary in advance.
"...Alright, I will do my best to cooperate."
Andrei nodded, turned to look at the fleet, and said in a deep voice: "Begin preparing the Life Core."
As his words fell, the fleet immediately went into action. They scattered in all directions, docking in different positions to form a specific formation.
The armor plates at the bottom of the Spaceships slid open, revealing a ring-shaped metal device.
Then, a hazy light was released, connecting them to form a massive translucent energy shield.
Next, a silver-white specially made energy antenna extended from the belly of all battleships, aiming at the translucent energy shield.
In the channel, reporting voices rang out one after another.
"Information State Stabilization and Compression Field construction complete..."
"Information State Wave Peak has been activated, the Life Core has been loaded, setup complete."
"Information State Condensation Device has been loaded, the program is auto-calibrating, preparations complete."
"Wait for my command."
Andrei spoke seriously.
Everyone held their breath, their chests heaving.
Codri's expression was also somewhat tense. If they could open the Titan Sanctuary in advance, the harvest would be immense. Everyone's mood fluctuated.
This time, it might establish the opportunity for the rise of their Salvation Ark.
Looking around, Andrei suddenly said:
"Begin!"
As his words fell, it was as if a start button had been pressed, as if a precision instrument began operating.
All the operators present already had the process memorized by heart and started strictly following the steps.
Bang bang bang——
The silver-white energy antennas shot out colorful Light Beams, each representing an Information State frequency.
Inside the energy light shield, various Information State frequencies began to compress. Streaks of different colored energy shuttled and flowed within, like overturned dye, becoming colorful.
As time passed, the colors became increasingly bright, gradually rendered into rainbow colors, transforming into a hovering colorful light ball, like a super-large colorful sun.
The force field Protective Shield enveloping it immediately produced a violent reaction, enduring a powerful Impact, flickering erratically and trembling continuously, as if it would disintegrate at any moment.
Right at this moment, the Information State Condensation Device took effect.
As if an invisible giant hand began kneading this light ball, its shape constantly changed, and its volume shrank rapidly.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, it transformed into a colorful Ring less than a hundred meters in diameter, which was slowly rotating.
Its Information State density had multiplied by an unknown number of times, and its light was so dazzling one almost couldn't look straight at it.
"It succeeded..."
Andrei suppressed the excitement in his heart and said loudly: "Put in the Life Core, draw out the Titan Sanctuary!"
They sprang into action again. Taking out the Life Core, they threw it into the center of this colorful Ring via a tractor beam.
It was as if a special power held up the Life Core, making it rotate along with the Ring.
The Ring suddenly shot out light, projecting a blurry light door in the interstellar space not far away, slowly rotating.
It didn't look too far away, but it was intangible like a mirage, as if located in another world.
This scene only lasted for an instant. The image rapidly enlarged, quickly turning from illusory to real.
As a whole, it transformed into a light door hundreds of meters high and over ten meters wide. The edges were still constantly trembling, golden fragments flickering, looking quite unstable.
More and more radiant walls emerged in the Universe along the door, as if they were going to completely solidify.
"It's really the Titan Sanctuary!?" Codri's eyes widened. He originally hadn't harbored any hope.
However, now he was helplessly watching the doors of the Titan Sanctuary emerge before him.
"This is the door to the Titan Sanctuary. As long as it completely solidifies... I will be able to control what's inside..."
This thought flashed through Andrei's mind, and he took a deep breath.
However, right at this moment, streaks of pitch-black Light Beams shot over from the Universe, directly blasting onto the Titan Sanctuary that was trying to solidify.
Hum——
The sudden change caused the Titan Sanctuary's passage to become blurry and illusory again, as if it would disintegrate at any moment.
"Who is it!!"
Andrei suddenly turned his head, raging flames erupting from his eyes, instantly hitting the remaining Light Beams, making them completely disappear.
"People from the Salvation Ark?"
"You guys really aren't simple. We discovered the Information State fluctuations here and thought it was the Forerunners or someone else. Didn't expect it to be you guys."
Battleships emerged one after another. Codri's expression changed slightly; it was the Star Glory Empire.
"They are constantly monitoring this place..." Codri said in a low voice: "If they discover Information State fluctuations within the area, they will appear immediately."
"I suggest we leave first. This place is too close to the Star Glory Empire, don't clash with them head-on."
Andrei's face was grim, his eyes gloomy, staring fixedly at the fleet before him.
At the same time, the illusory Titan Sanctuary gradually began to collapse, ultimately disappearing completely into the Starry Sky.
"You didn't think of this before?" Andrei suddenly looked at Codri. The killing intent contained in his eyes made even him feel a bit terrified.
"It's useless even if I thought of it. We don't have the technology to shield Information State fluctuations," Codri lowered his head and explained.
"Let's go!" Andrei gritted his teeth, glanced at the Star Glory Empire's fleet, and could only order a retreat.
"General, should we pursue?" Inside the Star Glory Empire battleship, the Adjutant inquired.
"No need. I recognize that person. Codri, a High Echelon of the Salvation Ark. For someone to make him Bow and Scrape, yet not be the Lord of the Ark..." The general frowned tightly.
"I recall, there is no such person in the Salvation Ark."
He shook his head and said: "The most pressing matter right now is to report this first. The Salvation Ark possesses the means to open the Titan Sanctuary in advance. This has already disrupted the situation."
"I just wonder if this has any Impact on the Titan Sanctuary."
......
Clap! Clap! Clap!
Thunderous applause broke out. Klein's speech had ended, and everyone responded with the loudest applause. Next was the memorial and moment of silence.
However, Loyd suddenly sent someone to invite Li Yu to a specific room for a chat.
He had already stood up early, nodded towards Li Yu, and went to a certain room led by an attendant.
That was a room specially prepared for meetings that didn't want to be disturbed.
"What happened, why the sudden thought to invite me. Is it because handsome guys appreciate handsome guys?" Li Yu was somewhat confused.
This kid had been here for a while and had never shown the desire to visit him.
Li Yu didn't believe that after seeing him once, this kid was captivated by his world-shocking looks and wanted to have a good chat with him about handsome guys' topics.
However, the Identity of the Star Glory Empire's Crown Prince was prestigious enough. Chatting with this handsome guy was always better than staying here mourning Digor.
Bolvar and the others beside him were a bit Speechless and couldn't be bothered to respond. What kind of nonsense was Li Yu talking about?
Immediately after, led by an attendant, he also walked towards the room.
Opening the door, Loyd was standing in front of the windowsill, his body straight, a formalized smile on his face, and said amiably:
"Your Excellency Dragon Lord, I've been in Returning Star for quite some time, but haven't had the time to visit you at your residence. Please forgive me."
"We should be about the same age, just call me Li Yu," Li Yu smiled.
Loyd's smile retracted slightly, but the degree was very small, making it hard to notice.
Meanwhile, Li Yu sat casually on the sofa, sizing up Loyd, and said: "You and that brother of yours look quite alike, it's just that you are a bit more handsome than him."
Li Yu was talking about Xia En. He had only come into contact with this one Imperial Noble.
Loyd shook his head, having completely withdrawn his smile: "The acquired adjusted appearance genes are only to differentiate the exterior. Handsomeness is just an Aesthetics definition, it holds little meaning."
Xia En wasn't simply captured; they also had quite a few spies in The Council's territory.
Loyd naturally knew exactly how Li Yu had manipulated Xia En back then to get the Holy Maiden of the Night to save him, even dressing him up as a gift and tying him in various poses.
He could imagine that kind of humiliation, so naturally he shared a common enemy, and his attitude towards the person before him wasn't considered good.
"I invited you over this time mainly because of the Forerunners matter. You haven't forgotten our cooperation, right?" Loyd got straight to the point.
"Of course not." Li Yu shook his head, quietly waiting for the other party's next words.
It's just that he still felt something was amiss. This guy definitely didn't come for the cooperation regarding the Forerunners, otherwise, he would have surely approached him long ago and wouldn't have waited until now.
Even less so suddenly inviting him to discuss this matter halfway through the memorial ceremony.
"We just found some crucial clues. The Forerunners are recently plotting something with the Abyss Institute. It seems they want to make a move on your Dimensional Ship," Loyd said in a low voice, as if speaking of an extremely crucial secret.
"Oh?" Li Yu narrowed his eyes slightly: "The Forerunners and the Abyss Institute plotting to make a move on me, this is truly unexpected news."
The Abyss Institute was wiped out by yours truly, their nest destroyed by me. They are plotting with the Forerunners? How come I don't know?
He had completely sealed the news of him wiping out the Abyss Institute, so no one could leak it.
So in the eyes of outsiders, the Abyss Institute still existed.
He didn't need this battle record to add color to his name; on the contrary, keeping this secret hidden might come in handy at times.
"Yes, from the ambush operation in the Benfir Civilization last time, it can be seen that they are already cooperating with the Abyss Institute." Loyd spoke with assurance:
"The target is already very obvious, it's the Other-Dimensional Camp. The Dimensional Ship holds extraordinary significance to the Abyss Institute, so they are unwilling to let it go."
"Due to the cooperation agreement between us, we are willing to provide some information and support."
"You guys are truly kind-hearted." Li Yu was somewhat confused, temporarily unable to figure out what the Star Glory Empire was planning.
The other party's information was definitely fake, but if one didn't know the Abyss Institute had been wiped out, this news sounded quite real.
Because this was all known information, the other party was just consciously guiding him now.
What kind of calculations was the Star Glory Empire making?
"This is natural, the Forerunners are our common enemy." Loyd nodded slightly.
"What do you plan for me to do?" Li Yu asked tentatively.
"I should be the one asking you this sentence..." Loyd maintained his composure and said: "However, we have been continuously tracking the coordinates of the Abyss Institute's Headquarters, and already have some clues."
"Do you need them?"
Li Yu's expression condensed slightly.
The coordinates of the Abyss Institute's Headquarters? The Star Glory Empire can even find this out?
If it was true, then he might have to abandon that secret Base.
"I'm indeed very interested." Li Yu nodded.
Loyd didn't hesitate and directly gave an address:
"Their Headquarters' coordinates should be near the Barren Universe Zone between the Bados Civilization and the Morton Civilization, but we don't clearly know the specific location."
"It still requires a careful search."
"Ah, there?" Li Yu was somewhat bewildered.
That place and the true Headquarters of the Abyss Institute were not just far apart, they were completely unrelated.
The Star Glory Empire, is deceiving him?
"Yes..." Loyd seemed very certain, his eyes not dodging.
Li Yu couldn't sense the emotional fluctuations on his body through The Force, and his life tier was clearly not low either.
"If you are going to take action, please be sure not to be reckless. Perhaps you might encounter people from the Forerunners. It requires planning in advance, and we can also provide some help." Loyd took the initiative to say.
"Oh, okay... Let me think about it." Li Yu massaged his brow.
What exactly does the Star Glory Empire want to do?
"This is my private Communication Link, you can contact me anytime." Loyd handed over a Business Card. It had a matte texture and felt very premium.
