Chapter 727: Self-Exposure: I Am Also a Titan!

~14 min read 2,669 words

This was the Fallen Titan's trump card!

He could summon these two Mechanical Black Dragons to fight for him.

Stating it like this wasn't quite accurate either. A more accurate way to put it should be that the Fallen Titan understood the Eternal Civilization and knew their operational mechanisms.

He could use a certain method to temporarily borrow the other party's power to fight alongside him.

The Eternal Civilization and the Titan Civilization were once allies against enemies.

In the underlying logical operational mechanisms of the Eternal Civilization, the Titan Civilization was not an enemy.

It was just that that applied to normal Mechanical Lifeforms.

This Eternal Fleet had been in this "Time Slice" for too long, having completely merged with this "Time Slice", almost like a single entity.

The operation of their underlying logic obviously couldn't be judged by common sense anymore.

But he couldn't be certain whether the Fallen Titan had other supplementary means.

Moreover, this method couldn't command those two Mechanical Black Dragons either. Just like in the Fallen Titan's chanting, this was just "fighting alongside each other."

He had previously thought about using this method to bluff these two Mechanical Black Dragons.

But then he suddenly thought, if speaking a couple of sentences could perfectly obtain the object in the Metal Box, the Fallen Titan would have acted long ago.

"Great Titan Civilization, we come to fulfill the covenant..." The Mechanical Black Dragons' bodies stretched almost endlessly. Even the Fallen Titan looked like a speck of dust in front of them.

They emitted an ancient, difficult-to-understand voice, but Li Yu was very clear about the other party's meaning.

The Fallen Titan looked down at the crowd, but there was no hint of excitement in his eyes.

To him, today was almost a dead end.

He had to get that little guy; it could even be said its priority was far greater than that metal iron box.

But the problem lay right here; the Star Glory Empire could not possibly let the person go to him.

Because in the eyes of the Star Glory Empire, he was a weak "old man". Giving him respect was only looking at the past glory of the Titan Civilization, as well as a bit of Apprehension.

Only by revealing sufficiently powerful Strength could he make the Star Glory Empire take his demands seriously.

He indeed could temporarily make these two Mechanical Black Dragons help him, but this method had a fatal hidden danger.

The Eternal Fleet had deeply integrated with this piece of time and was no longer considered normally operating Mechanical Lifeforms.

Once forcibly awakened, it would cause instability in this "Time Slice", carrying the risk of collapse.

In other words, this trump card of his was a one-time use, which was why he was reluctant to use it for so long.

"This is what I rely on..." The Fallen Titan slowly spoke: "The era of the Titan Civilization has indeed passed, but the few remnants left behind can also help me solve some problems."

"I am unwilling to go to war with you. Hand him over to me, we can still cooperate. What we need to get from him is different."

"There is no conflict of interest."

Even up to now, the Fallen Titan was still unwilling to start a war.

The Golden Armored One's expression changed slightly. The Aura of these two Mechanical Black Dragons made him feel danger, and moreover, an endless Eternal Fleet was gradually emerging.

Three against three, they had no absolute certainty of victory.

Alfrey's gaze fell on those two Mechanical Black Dragons; there was no Information State Outflow from them at all.

The condition proposed by the Fallen Titan was very tempting.

Although they were On the Brink of War just now, they didn't mind adapting to the situation.

Li Yu was rather surprised. He didn't expect the Fallen Titan could endure to this extent.

He was now walking on an entirely new and unknown possibility.

The previous predictions only let him grasp a lot of information he originally didn't know, and make relative arrangements based on that.

But the development of events was inherently variable, otherwise he couldn't possibly have seen 2.8 million possibilities before.

The Fallen Titan's concession was unexpected, and looking at the situation, the three Super Lifeforms of the Star Glory Empire seemed to be considering the possibility of this matter.

This didn't quite fit Li Yu's plan.

"No, you do have a conflict of interest." The continuously silent Li Yu suddenly spoke up, attracting everyone's gaze.

The Fallen Titan's heart tightened slightly. He subconsciously wanted to strike, but restrained himself.

Fighting would aggravate his injuries. The problem was, he also didn't have absolute certainty of winning.

"Do you know why he needs me?" Li Yu lowered his head, as if muttering to himself.

"What exactly are you trying to say? Our decision doesn't need your suggestion." The Golden Armored One stared at him, displeased.

"This is not a suggestion, but a fact." Li Yu slowly raised his head, his face calm as he said: "Because, I am also a Titan!"

As his words fell, Li Yu's body rapidly expanded, swelling to roughly the same size as the Fallen Titan in the blink of an eye.

A tyrannical Aura surged out. The ancient and powerful Royal Blood Titan Bloodline surged in his Corporeal Form, his heartbeat drumming like Thunder.

"You dare!" The Fallen Titan glared angrily. The Black Mist shrouding him churned like an ocean, demonstrating the unease in his heart.

He never imagined that Li Yu would actually self-expose his Identity.

This was originally an Unspoken Mutual Secret between the two of them, but Li Yu actually actively exposed it to avoid falling into his hands.

"*" The moment he turned into a Titan, Li Yu began to chant what the Fallen Titan had said previously, the part about letting the Mechanical Black Dragons fight alongside him and such.

As a result, the Mechanical Black Dragons didn't have any reaction. Their enormous mechanical pupils slowly rotated, while the atmosphere at the scene became bizarre and silent.

Li Yu wasn't embarrassed either. He indeed guessed correctly, the Fallen Titan had other auxiliary means.

"A Titan!?" The Golden Armored One's breathing stalled slightly, a hint of disbelief flashing in his eyes. How could there still be a living Titan?

In the past nearly a hundred thousand years, not a single living Titan had appeared. Why did it seem like they were Clumping Together in this era, one after another?

Alfrey said slowly: "Genetic True Form? You merged with the Titan's Gene Chain... this is truly, too astonishing..."

"How did you guys do it..."

The Genetic Evolutionary Path was relatively special. Before Li Yu used the Titan's Genetic True Form, it couldn't normally be identified.

However, it wasn't like they hadn't experimented with this method of genetic fusion.

The Emperor of Returning Star died under exactly such circumstances; by right, he shouldn't have been able to evade the lock of that special weapon either.

He must have some way to evade the lock of that special weapon.

This method must be figured out!

Alfrey made a decision in an instant.

"Now, do you still plan to share me with the Fallen Titan?" Li Yu looked around and asked.

"Why not!?" The Fallen Titan answered preemptively, his eyes full of indifference: "In order to avoid falling into my hands, you actually preferred to self-expose your Identity."

"Do you think falling into my hands might endanger your life, but not in their hands!?"

Li Yu was Noncommittal and said: "I know there is a major problem with your body. Compared to your own body, knowing how I evaded the Annihilation Device is not important."

"I don't know how you plan to use me to repair your own body, but I don't mind speculating with the most extreme thoughts."

"And for the Star Glory Empire, knowing how I evaded the Annihilation Device is clearly more important. As long as I cooperate, everything is not a problem."

Li Yu spoke unhurriedly, seemingly having prepared a draft in his mind long ago.

The Fallen Titan stared fixedly at him. Upon careful thought, he found that what the other party said really made a damn lot of sense.

"It is truly a pity that the Royal Blood Titan Bloodline flows in you. Since you are so afraid of death, why did you deliberately get caught, just to trigger this war?" The Fallen Titan asked again.

What the hell? Deliberately getting caught?

Alfrey raised his eyebrows slightly. Are you looking down on the three of us too much, or overestimating him too much?

If Li Yu really got caught deliberately, wouldn't he consider how to escape?

Even if the Other-Dimensional Camp really had backup plans, unless they dispatched a multiple number of Super Lifeforms,

Trying to snatch Li Yu back from the hands of the three of them would be extraordinarily difficult.

The Golden Armored One felt even more annoyed listening. The Fallen Titan and Li Yu echoing each other here conversely left the three of them out in the cold, making them seem like supporting characters.

"What deliberately getting caught, hmph!" He waved his hand violently. A massive amount of Golden Chains emerged from the Void, crisscrossing and piercing through Li Yu's enormous Corporeal Form, firmly locking him in the Void.

Li Yu's body shrank, and those Golden Chains shrank along with it, indestructible.

The Golden Armored One seemed to be using this method to express that Li Yu's life or death was entirely at their whim.

"I can make a final concession. The method he used to evade the Annihilation Device's lock goes to you, his body goes to me," the Fallen Titan still said.

Motherfucker, saying I cling to life and fear death, I think you're the one afraid of death. Li Yu was instantly Speechless. Even at this stage, the Fallen Titan still wanted to solve the problem through cooperation.

"Oh right, there's one last thing. These two Mechanical Black Dragons have separated from their original Time Slices. The longer the time, the more unstable they become, and eventually they will completely collapse." Li Yu added again:

"That is to say, you three have absolutely no need to fight, nor do you need to cooperate. Once the time is up, you can naturally reap the final results."

As soon as his voice fell, a terrifying Energy Fluctuation surged over overwhelmingly. The Fallen Titan made his move!

He was both shocked and angry inwardly, not knowing how Li Yu knew about this secret again.

He knew the three from the Star Glory Empire couldn't verify the authenticity of this sentence.

But because of the series of self-exposures earlier, combined with Li Yu's Titan Identity, the balance in the Star Glory Empire's hearts had already tilted. This was the last straw.

Even if they didn't believe what Li Yu said, they wouldn't mind trying it out.

Anyway, not making a move wouldn't result in any loss for them.

But it was different for the Fallen Titan. If he really let them keep waiting until the Eternal Fleet collapsed, let alone getting Li Yu, he himself would probably be caught and Sliced up for research.

With all routes of retreat cut off, he could only start a war!

"Good timing!" A sharp glint flashed in the Golden Armored One's eyes; he had long been unable to hold back.

He was actually extremely unhappy inwardly, because whether to fight or not seemed not to depend on them. With a couple of words from Li Yu, the Fallen Titan violently erupted.

And as one of the main characters, they didn't seem to be given much importance at all.

The Fallen Titan had already struck to take the offensive. Black Radiance flashed in his eyes, and the Black Mist that had brewed into an ocean shot out in clusters, containing an Aura that destroyed Vitality, sealing all of the Golden Armored One's evasion angles.

Golden light exploded all over the Golden Armored One's body. Vigorous Energy erupted like a Supernova Explosion, bursting out a thick ring of pale golden light waves.

The approaching Black Mist stagnated in mid-air and was consecutively shattered, but more Black Mist surged down, continuously filling the gaps.

Although the Golden Armored One's protective Aura shield blocked the bombardment of the Black Mist, a portion of the black air currents still remained on it.

It continuously wore away the thickness of the Energy Shield. The Energy that was tainted rapidly lost its activity, turning into starlight dots and dissipating into Cosmic Space.

"This Black Mist is too bizarre, possessing high corrosiveness towards Energy, Physical body, and Attention..."

The Golden Armored One's thoughts flashed. He poured more Energy into the Energy Shield, and simultaneously drew out an exquisite Personal Sword.

Although the Star Glory Empire couldn't forge weapons at the level of Titan Artifacts, surpassing Titan Tools was not a problem.

Without pausing his movements, he bent his knees and kicked off violently. A ring of Qi-glow Shockwave instantly exploded behind him, and his entire person shot out straight like a fired cannonball, turning into a Flowing Light and charging towards the Fallen Titan, leaving streaks of afterimages behind him.

"Come!"

The Fallen Titan's eyes turned fierce. An extremely black mist suddenly surged out from his body and then rapidly rolled back.

Layer by layer, it covered his body, instantly becoming solid. The Black Mist seemed to have turned into some kind of metal, becoming Black Armor.

At the same time, dense and complex red patterns crawled all over the Fallen Titan's Corporeal Form, looking quite profound and mysterious.

The next moment, the golden meteor violently crashed into the Fallen Titan's abdomen, pushing him and flying out, like a ray entwined with black and gold, leaving a path filled with fireworks.

Thump thump thump thump—

A sky full of golden sword shadows fell swiftly, bombarding the Fallen Titan like a violent storm.

However, his Black Armor was extremely resilient, merely bursting out rippling waves on the surface without any signs of being shattered.

Suddenly, the sword shadows vanished all at once. The Fallen Titan had caught the Golden Armored One's Long Sword and sank his wrist.

Bang!!

A forceful power shook out a flowing wave trajectory on the surface of the Fallen Titan's body, transmitting from the palm to the back, then passing out through the body, expanding out a golden Energy Shockwave into the Cosmic Space behind him.

"You were only Blueprints used for genetic matching. If not for the legacy of our civilization, how could you have evolved to this point!"

A Mental Fluctuation carrying intense fighting intent blossomed, and the pitch-black Fallen Titan violently smashed a punch onto the Golden Armored One's body.

The vibration conducted within their bodies, issuing a loud clanging sound.

Immediately after, the Fallen Titan released the Golden Armored One, violently clenched his hand into a fist, and in the blink of an eye, countless Black Radiances exploded in flashes.

Hundreds of fist imprints burning with black flames suddenly appeared on the Golden Armored One's protective Aura shield. A massive propulsive force erupted, instantly bouncing him flying away.

In this form, the Fallen Titan actually repelled the Golden Armored One head-on in close combat!

"Very good... interesting."

The Golden Armored One, who was flying backward, immediately braked his figure and rubbed his somewhat dull-feeling head. Other parts were completely unscathed.

Inwardly, he was somewhat surprised by the Fallen Titan's combat power. He didn't expect that with an Aura weakened to this extent, he could still burst out combat power not inferior to his in the slightest.

"Again!"

Lightning Glow suddenly appeared on the sword's edge; the Golden Armored One was like a general of a hundred battles.

The gazes of the two met in mid-air, sparking with electricity. The next moment, they moved simultaneously. The black and gold figures violently collided again, aftershocks shooting out.
