Chapter 757: Lord Dragon Sovereign, Save Us!
Fire Ring Star System, located within the territory of the Cassandra Civilization. A red meteor belt surrounded the entire Star System, giving it this name.
A Small fleet was currently handling handover procedures.
"No problem, no problem. I've already saved your communication code..." Ron smiled at the Cassandra person on the screen.
He was already accustomed to the other party's flattery. Along the way, as long as he revealed his Identity as Dragon Sovereign's subordinate, he basically wouldn't encounter any trouble.
Civilizations along the way basically opened the door of convenience, and the Archons of these small Star Systems didn't dare to offend him even more.
The Dragon Sovereign, who hadn't been silent for long, suddenly returned strongly and mobilized nearly ten thousand A-Tier Lifeforms. No one wasn't afraid of this kind of prestige.
On the other side, Josel was talking to someone. On the Holographic Screen was a quirky little girl, chattering away non-stop——
"...Today the School principal came to our house again, saying the environment in our home is detrimental to my studies, and wants to give us a large Villa..."
"...I don't feel it's detrimental to my studies. I'm used to it, and it's quite nice..."
"...And also, those classmates who had a bad attitude towards me before, I don't know what's going on, they are trembling with fear every time they see me every day..."
Josel just listened with a smile, his eyes occasionally flashing with some light.
Of course he knew that all this was brought about by the change in his Identity.
The two of them had excavated quite a few Civilization Ruins, and Li Yu naturally provided corresponding treatment.
The news that they were working for Dragon Sovereign, even if just a sliver was revealed, was enough to make the planet Joseph was on tremble with fear.
"Hey... Ibella..." Ron came over and greeted the girl on the screen.
"Brother Ron!" The girl greeted him in high spirits, her smile full of sunshine.
"Some even weirder things might happen in the future. You don't need to worry about it, I'll tell Mother what to do," Joseph instructed his Younger sister.
"Mm-hmm, then you guys chat..." The girl nodded and hung up the communication.
Only then did Ron reveal a helpless expression: "I say, big brother, what exactly is going on here? We've both been out of the Ancient Starpath for a long time and crossed over a dozen civilizations..."
"Haven't found that place you talked about yet?"
Joseph shook his head and took out an ancient badge from his pocket. It was only the size of a baby's palm, with a Star Emblem in the center.
He gently rubbed it with his fingers, clearly feeling a slight palpitation in his heart. This was a completely different feeling, entirely unlike finding money.
"I feel that we're still very far from that place. This thing is very important, we must find its origin,"
This was something they found in an abandoned base, one of the many unknown harvests.
Except for the first Civilization Ruin, they later excavated many Civilization Ruins, but no video or text data was left behind.
They couldn't figure out the functions of the things excavated from inside at all.
But this Emblem gave Joseph a different feeling.
For Joseph, the feeling in his heart was his guidance.
So he didn't hesitate to let Ron take him on a long journey, even though he himself didn't know what he was looking for.
"Alright..."
Ron scratched his head, not having any doubts about Joseph either. It was just that getting away from the previous high-density rhythm of discovering Civilization Ruins made him somewhat unaccustomed.
Because they were just some conjectures, they only filed a record in the System and didn't have the thought of drawing Dragon Sovereign's attention.
According to the navigation trajectory, they prepared to enter the spaceport to resupply and also rest for two days. Prolonged Starry Sky navigation was really too exhausting.
Although they could transfer through Dimensional Passages in many places.
However, they hadn't reached that level yet after all, and were embarrassed to apply for it.
But just as they docked the warship at the spaceport, preparing to meet with the local Archon for a friendly exchange and deeply experience the Local Customs and Traditions of this planet.
The defense system of the entire Fire Ring Star System suddenly issued a massive alarm——
"Warning, unknown high-energy lifeform detected breaking through the Defense Perimeter, beep beep..."
Ron was somewhat confused. He couldn't be this unlucky, right? Running right into the Fire Ring Star System being attacked?
Boom!
A massive amount of fireworks exploded In the starry expanse. That was the Fire Ring Star System's defense fleet. They couldn't even stop the other party for more than a second.
Boom-Boom-Boom!
A series of explosive lights extended over, and the target seemed to be exactly where they were.
Joseph's eyes were filled with horror as he looked down at the constantly blinking Star Emblem.
Ron also noticed this point. In an instant, he had a kind of enlightenment and made the fastest movement of his life so far.
The Dimensional rift activation device was thrown at his feet, and a Dimensional Rift passage opened behind him.
The emergency call button was activated, and a massive number of Transformers surged out of it, quickly forming a Defense Perimeter around the two of them.
The Energy Barrier was extremely thick, with barrier-type Transformers providing energy, and deploying various force fields and three-dimensional defense Turrets.
Bang!
A ray of radiance shot over, producing an intense collision with the Energy Barrier. In almost an instant, it pierced through the thick Energy Barrier.
But the Transformers responsible for defense activated the deflection device at the last moment, so this attack didn't cause any lethality.
But it also made Ron and Joseph's hearts tremble. This kind of scene made them realize the enemy's life tier was definitely very high.
The next moment, a Flowing Light tore through the Starry Universe, landing directly not far from them. It looked like an Interstellar human.
The Transformers' scanning Instruments completely couldn't see through his body structure, and the Power Level was already heading in a direction that made Ron despair.
"Void Realm Fissure... This seems to be Titan Civilization technology. Are they not all dead yet?" he muttered, raising his hand and snapping his fingers. The tall Dimensional Rift was directly closed.
"The Spatial Coefficient has been locked!"
The Transformers beside him issued a warning. Ron's face was taut, extremely nervous.
"Mechanical Lifeforms? Seems not quite either..." The other party focused his gaze on the surrounding Transformers, seemingly somewhat puzzled.
"Your Excellency, we are the Transformation Legion, working for Dragon Sovereign. May I ask who you are?" Ron probed cautiously.
"Transformation Legion? Dragon Sovereign?" He repeated the phrase, and then shook his head: "Not very familiar."
He didn't even know Dragon Sovereign?
Ron was somewhat stunned. Could it be an Antique that Suddenly Appeared from some Hidden Corners?
"How about you first learn about Dragon Sovereign, and then see if this is a misunderstanding?" Ron forced a smile.
"No need, perhaps a big shot in The Ruins, but it doesn't mean anything to me." The other party didn't care at all.
"Then your purpose is?"
Ron didn't know what "The Ruins" in the other party's mouth meant, he only wanted to know the other party's "purpose".
"That thing..." He pointed to the Star Emblem in Joseph's hand.
Sure enough, he came for this thing.
Ron and Joseph both sighed inwardly at the same time. Joseph hesitated for a moment, threw the Star Emblem out, and said: "Since you need it, then take it away."
The other party had locked down space, and they didn't know when their backup would arrive. With just this bit of strength, it was completely impossible to pose a threat to the other party.
Blind toughness could only welcome fearless sacrifice.
The other party caught this Emblem and also rubbed it in his hands for a moment.
Then this seemingly very ancient Star Emblem unfolded from the center and turned into another very strange-looking Instrument.
Below was a metal platform, and in the center floated a grey-black Crystal that looked like an eyeball.
"I wonder if those Overseers are still around..." Seeing this scene, he only imperceptibly nodded, expressing satisfaction.
"Then... do you have any other business?" Ron looked at the other party's expression and asked cautiously.
"This matter still needs to be kept secret for now. I don't want others to know the news of my arrival," he spoke, making Ron's expression sink.
Once these words were spoken, it meant they were basically going to be silenced.
"However, you guys are still a bit useful to me. As for the others... just disappear."
He looked around. Silently, the surrounding Transformers were all disintegrating, their mechanical bodies turning into powder and scattering In the starry expanse.
Not only that, Ron's eyes trembled as he saw the planet not far away also begin to collapse, in the same silent manner as the Transformers.
An ordinary Life Planet, no matter what, had at least over a billion lifeforms.
This kind of scene still caused a tremendous Impact on the hearts of Ron and Josel.
They hadn't personally experienced so many lifeforms perishing before their eyes. This feeling made their emotions churn——
Lord Dragon Sovereign, save us!
They were enveloped by an invisible force, suspended In the starry expanse. Only after completely erasing the traces of his existence did the other party take the two away.
………
"Xia En is actually heavily injured... So that's how it is." Li Yu was somewhat surprised, and then revealed a thoughtful expression.
"Yes, while clearing out Alien gods in A certain starfield, he was ambushed by those Alien gods. If it weren't for having many trump cards, he would have Died." Mo Duo nodded, and then added:
"However, according to the news I received, it's said that there are traces of the Old Ones in this attack."
"The Lady of the Night was Enraged because of this, killing dozens of Divine Spirits in succession."
"Is Xia En valued that much?" Li Yu was also somewhat surprised.
"That's right, but the specific reason is unknown..." Mo Duo nodded. This was something many Divine Spirits didn't understand.
Li Yu was thoughtful. After getting the news from that Bassens, he had Mo Duo ask around a bit.
As a result, he quickly got the news, and it was indeed related to Xia En.
And he was almost beaten to death. No wonder the Star Glory Empire didn't have time to bother with The Forerunners. I'm afraid their attention had already shifted to the Old Ones.
Xia En being heavily injured and on the verge of death was one aspect. Whether the Old Ones knew of their schemes was another.
These were all things the Star Glory Empire needed to figure out.
"The Forerunners really know how to stir up trouble." Li Yu frowned.
The Forerunners definitely weren't thinking of fighting a two-front war by doing this, simultaneously offending him and the Star Glory Empire.
It should just be a Delaying Tactic, used to stall for time.
"These Turtles, they couldn't be thinking of hiding too, right..." Li Yu felt somewhat Speechless, thinking of the Abyss Institute that had already been reduced to the dust of history.
Those few old brothers just directly hid when they saw things were going wrong.
If he didn't have many methods, the other party really would have managed to hide, and it would be unknown When Pigs Fly before they appeared again.
Hiding when you can't win, truly a bunch of old...
Wait... just as he was about to curse a few sentences, Li Yu suddenly thought that he seemed to have done the same thing before when facing the Star Glory Empire.
Ahem... a strategic retreat and then Making a comeback is what a qualified organization Leader should consider, nothing wrong with that.
It was just that, since the grudge had been formed, he definitely couldn't let this hidden danger hide away in peace.
After thinking for a moment, Li Yu brought out the sealed Bassens.
He didn't know how The Forerunners trained their organization Members. This guy would self-"Disintegrate" whenever he had the chance.
That was a self-destruction mechanism rooted in the Cells. Triggering it only took an instant of thought. Li Yu could only seal the other party with time, saving him the trouble of constantly reversing time.
If by any chance due to negligence, he really died, the cost of reversing time would be too great.
He quickly found Aenius. This girl seemed to have disappeared recently, nowhere to be seen.
Li Yu had to request repeatedly before the Star Glory Empire let her come out to see Li Yu.
"What do you want with me?" Aenius seemed to be in a very bad mood, her eyes occasionally flashing with sharpness: "If there are new cooperation projects, the empire will assign officials to you."
"That's not it..." Li Yu shook his head and said: "I just wanted to ask, when are we making a move against The Forerunners? I'm already Impatient."
"It's temporarily postponed. The intelligence the empire collected before was incorrect." Aenius casually gave an Excuse.
"Oh..." Li Yu was thoughtful, changing the subject: "That's good, I thought The Forerunners' plan had worked."
"Hmm?" Aenius, who was just about to leave, suddenly looked at Li Yu, frowning: "What Forerunners' plan?"
"Wasn't Returning Star attacked recently..." Li Yu slowly explained the whole matter under Aenius's almost fire-breathing gaze.
"So it was them!?" Aenius was Furious at first, her whole body emitting an icy Aura, and black lines spreading across her eyes.
"No need to be so anxious, I've already handled the matters in Returning Star." Li Yu deliberately appeased her, and then sighed: "I didn't expect you to have such a favorable impression of Returning Star, to be Furious to this extent upon hearing this."
Aenius froze, her face turning red with frustration. Only after a moment did she squeeze out a sentence: "Returning Star is related to Your Excellency Dragon Sovereign after all."
