Chapter 773: Quick, Go Invite the Empire's Ancestor!
This could be considered a disgusting little gadget. The second personality born wasn't under Li Yu's control either, it could only make things uncomfortable for the main body.
This Infiltration trip could be said to be Fraught with complications. He even thought he was going to be exposed, but through A Twist of Fate, he ended up here.
When he thought this place was the Forerunner Headquarters, reality gave him another surprise.
But no matter what, this trip of his couldn't be considered to have yielded no harvest.
He still didn't know how long he had to wait next, but if he took this thing away, he couldn't guarantee it wouldn't wake up halfway.
Moreover, he also couldn't confirm what this thing was.
Thinking about it, he suddenly muttered: "Striking The Forerunners isn't my sole responsibility, what am I making things difficult for myself here for."
"Call people!"
He edited a message and sent it to Loren. The Headline was simple and crude—
He briefly recounted the matter, and also exaggerated it quite a bit.
However, since it involved a Super Lifeform, it was definitely one of The Forerunners' core secrets, so it couldn't be considered deceiving the Star Glory Empire either.
He also checked his inventory to see if there were any other small gadgets he could use.
There were a few items that could lock onto a target's position, so he simply placed one on this thing.
Even though he called for people, the final outcome was uncertain, so it was better to put some insurance measures in place first.
Next was waiting for the Star Glory Empire's ancestors to arrive.
However, since he was idle anyway, he simply took out the Titan Giant Axe, sizing up this humanoid stone from top to bottom.
What could be predicted was that this humanoid stone was definitely a relatively powerful lifeform.
Causing obvious damage to its body should be able to weaken its combat power.
Although the Titan Giant Axe couldn't directly cause obvious damage, he could slowly wear it down.
……………
Half an hour ago, on the other side, darkness breeds all things, however, "darkness" was insufficient to describe everything before one's eyes.
Even in this place, the two words "before one's eyes" didn't exist.
This place mixed all information together, forming a chaotic place that couldn't be perceived or described by any means.
Endless information fluctuated and surged here. They could form any matter and lifeform, three-faced divine spirits looking down on everything, terrifying and hideous flesh creations.
Everything was composed of information yet extremely void.
Because everything here presented a state that couldn't be accepted by conventional logic and senses. Any information rooted in the real world couldn't describe the essence of the Sea of Chaos.
If something is completely imperceptible to you, then to you, this thing doesn't exist.
In this Sea of Chaos, Ordinary Lifeforms were all blind and deaf; they could only see a patch of darkness.
But for Advanced Lifeforms, the danger here couldn't be added upon.
The most powerful and terrifying matter and lifeforms in their cognition would be born here, and then defeat them.
They couldn't suppress this fear, and the more fearful they were, the more powerful the creatures born would be.
This was exactly one of the dangerous regions of the Barren Universe Zone—Chaos!
People who hadn't deeply understood the Barren Universe Zone usually guessed this place to be a boundless dark vacuum zone where nothing could be felt.
Most of the Starry Sky was like this, so having this illusion was normal.
However, this description was far from the truth.
There were multiple dangerous regions within the Barren Universe Zone, and the characteristics of some dangerous regions simply exceeded the scope of normal lifeforms' comprehension.
Terrifying Energy Ripples dissipated. A giant was roaring in the Starry Sky, chasing after two tiny figures.
However, halfway through, it changed into a special creature whose entire body exuded bright light, carrying an incomparable sense of sacredness, brandishing countless golden Lightsabers!
"What is this again!?"
Stellar Spark gritted his teeth and roared, constructing an Energy Barrier beside him, but before it could withstand for a moment, dense cracks appeared.
"Radiant Pillar God, one of the Four Pillar Gods!" Silver Shadow tossed and turned in the crevices, dodging very strenuously as well.
In the next moment, the Radiant Pillar God changed its form again, turning into tall black-robed Faceless Ones, looking down at the two, holding giant black swords, bringing unparalleled oppressiveness.
"I haven't encountered this thing before, have you?" Silver Shadow looked at Stellar Spark.
"They are The Overseers..." Stellar Spark paused and said.
"The Overseers?" Silver Shadow seemed somewhat surprised.
He wasn't completely ignorant about this Chaos either.
Basically, it only manifested the most profound impressions in a lifeform's mind.
Under normal circumstances, they were the objects of fear in one's heart.
However, this guy previously said they were propped up by The Overseers, so he shouldn't have generated fear towards The Overseers, right.
But under these circumstances, he didn't think too deeply either, because the Overseer before them changed again, turning into a powerful lifeform wearing armor.
"Armor Sovereign, f*ck!" Silver Shadow actually couldn't help Cursing Loudly, and without the slightest hesitation, increased his horsepower and continued fleeing.
This seemed to be an extremely powerful lifeform, making Silver Shadow flee even more rapidly.
Stellar Spark followed closely behind, but right at this moment, his chest area suddenly erupted with a burst of purple light. His entire person seemed to be struck by an invisible force, flying backwards abruptly.
Dense cracks even surfaced on his chest area, and his body dissipated for a moment, as if it was about to collapse.
"How could this be!"
"The main body was damaged?" Stellar Spark's expression changed drastically. As if thinking of something, his body emitted bright light, seemingly wanting to activate some special ability.
But immediately after, the light on his body gradually dimmed again, his expression ugly.
This Chaos blocked his connection with his main body, unable to return directly.
Boom!
A giant crimson fist blasted over, and dazzling Energy Radiance filled his vision.
At this critical moment, Silver Shadow transformed into a streak of Flowing Light and charged over, rescuing Stellar Spark, while simultaneously reprimanding unceremoniously: "What are you doing!?"
If it wasn't because he still had to rely on the other party's organization right now, he wouldn't risk danger to save the other party.
"Something went wrong with my main body..." Stellar Spark's expression was gloomy.
Silver Shadow's expression flickered slightly. He had long known that the other party wasn't a normal lifeform, and what was active outside was just a projection.
"We've already obtained the Information Core. Deal with the trouble before us first. Only after staying away from the Chaos can we handle outside troubles."
"Understand?!" Silver Star's tone was somewhat stern. If he was still distracted here, there really would be a danger to their lives.
"What does he think he is, to actually dare reprimand me like this?" Upon hearing this, this thought suddenly arose in Stellar Spark's mind.
His expression was displeased, and he was just about to lash out, but then restrained his emotions.
How could I have this kind of thought?
Silver Shadow was right, dealing with the trouble before them should be the priority right now.
The Information Core was already in hand, escaping was the most urgent matter.
He wasn't someone easily swayed by emotions, this kind of thought shouldn't arise.
"Since the Information Core is already in hand, he's useless. The blueprints are also in my hands. The subsequent cooperation should be led by me!"
Stellar Spark's eyes shifted slightly, but he quickly restrained himself, feeling suspicious and uncertain inwardly.
What's going on?
It seems somewhere within me has become a bit different.
Silver Shadow didn't notice this point, and Stellar Spark had no time to continue thinking much either, he could only focus and continue fleeing from here.
…………
Over ten days quickly passed. Under Li Yu's relentless axe chops, he had finally chopped off... half a section of an arm.
He really spent some time thinking about exactly where to start.
He thought that without any Disruption, he would eventually be able to chop off the other party's arm.
But later he realized how difficult this matter was.
But having already chopped half of it, he couldn't just give up halfway, and could only continue.
On this humanoid stone, places thinner than the arm basically didn't exist, except for between the legs...
Li Yu originally really wanted to perform a major extraction surgery, but it was truly too underhanded. Just thinking about it made his own crotch feel chilly.
Actually, it was mainly because chopping at that thing for so many days, he was afraid he would develop some psychological shadow.
Just as he was preparing to continue grinding away, two powerful Auras rapidly approached here. Li Yu's movements paused, knowing the Empire's ancestors had arrived.
Alfrey was the first to appear in the Cabin. His gaze didn't even interact with Li Yu's at all, completely placed on the humanoid stone.
"It really is this thing..." he muttered in a low voice.
"You know it?" Li Yu was quite surprised. Why didn't Loren mention this matter in his reply to him?
Hiding it again, the Old Shady Schemer.
"This is a Titan Artifact Prototype..." This time Alfrey didn't hide it, and answered directly.
"Titan Artifact Prototype?" Hearing this, Li Yu was instantly even more surprised. No wonder it was so hard, it turned out to be a Titan Artifact Prototype.
He then immediately added: "Are you sure? But this thing is obviously alive..."
"Alive?" Alfrey was also shocked. The Golden Armored One still had that Poker Face, standing aside pretending to be a Cool Guy.
"This definitely is that Titan Artifact Prototype. Besides the crack on its arm not matching up, everything else matches perfectly." Alfrey was very certain:
"As for why it's alive, I'm not too clear either."
The crack on the arm... that's what I just chopped!
Li Yu was somewhat Speechless, then inquired carefully, roughly figuring out what exactly was going on.
Not every Titan Tribe had enough Strength to forge a Titan Artifact.
Titan Tribes were as numerous as hairs on a cow, but those with the qualifications to forge Titan Artifacts were only the top-ranking few.
And the normal steps to forge a Titan Artifact weren't much different from forging normal Weapons, it was all about collecting various materials.
Except there was an extra step of integrating Source Matter.
Which was also the key to why Titan Artifacts were so powerful.
This humanoid stone was a prototype that had already integrated Source Matter. Next, it needed meticulous carving and layers of steps to become a true Titan Artifact.
It was just that the sudden outbreak of war didn't give that so-called Cang Domain Titan Tribe the opportunity.
Leading to this prototype being shelved.
But also because it was a prototype, it was very special. It wasn't stored in the Titan Sanctuary, nor had it experienced war, so it could be said to be brand new from the factory, or even before leaving the factory.
According to Alfrey's information, this Titan Artifact Prototype had appeared shortly after the Titans' annihilation, causing a multi-party melee, and its whereabouts ultimately became unknown.
He could be clear on one point: under normal circumstances, this thing could absolutely not be a lifeform.
"There must have been some accident in the middle..." Li Yu pondered.
"Let's take it away. Regardless of what's going on, we can eventually figure it out through research," Alfrey suggested.
Li Yu glanced at him. No wonder he didn't tell him this in advance, this was fearing he would monopolize it and directly pocket it.
And just as Alfrey was preparing to speak, the expressions of all three changed simultaneously, because this humanoid stone erupted with an astonishing Aura once again.
"Hide first, we'll talk later," Li Yu said in a deep voice.
The three acted swiftly, disappearing from this place simultaneously.
A stream of red particles swept past, the surrounding scene restored to its original appearance, traces swept clean, unable to see any abnormality.
In the next moment, the rough surface of the humanoid stone gradually turned into normal-colored skin, and its facial features also manifested, quickly turning into a seemingly normal human.
Except for that shocking crack on his arm, inside which there were no blood vessels or muscles, only gray stone-like matter.
The first moment he woke up, he noticed the crack on his arm, and his expression became incredibly gloomy.
Even if he couldn't feel any residual Aura or abnormality around, he wasn't an Idiot. He naturally knew this place had already been discovered.
It could even be said that the person who damaged this Corporeal Form was very likely right here, just hidden.
"It's temporarily unclear what exactly the situation is. Call Silver Shadow over. Just in case there are any abnormal situations, the two of us can handle it," he pondered inwardly.
His Corporeal Form was special; even against strong enemies, escaping wasn't a problem. Almost no one could stop him.
He just didn't know what exactly happened here, and how exactly this place was exposed.
Without figuring out these few things, he also didn't want to leave for the time being.
Even among the entire Forerunners, there was only one person who knew the coordinates of this place.
Figuring this out, he could probably deduce the origin of the enemy.
"To actually dare bully me, I must make those guys die without a burial place." This thought suddenly popped into his mind. He frowned deeply, always feeling like he had become extremely arrogant recently.
He could feel that there seemed to be some problem with his Mental State, but for a time he couldn't find where the root of the problem lay.
Immediately after, this Corporeal Form changed back into a humanoid stone again, devoid of Aura, lying here quietly.
