Chapter 452

After this interruption, Sophia regained her composure.

Although Li Ang hadn't revealed anything to her before today, she wasn't blind.

As a member of 【Aeon Logistics】, Sophia was well aware of the undercurrents in the Obsidian Star Sector recently, but she hadn't expected that the young dragon in front of her would be involved in it.

Recalling her grandfather's care before she left, a reassuring, gentle smile appeared on the rainbow-haired beauty's face: "Don't worry, I will notify my grandfather right now and have him come to meet us."

"As for the Federation..."

"The Group will negotiate."

For 【Aeon Logistics】, if they could bring an exotic dragon with infinite potential like Li Ang under their command, it was clearly a win-win situation.

And after years of cooperation, the relationship between 【Aeon Logistics】 and the Federation had long since eased a lot; the price required to take Li Ang away wasn't as serious as he had imagined.

Hearing Sophia's words, Li Ang felt a sense of relief in his heart.

As long as he could reach the territory belonging to 【Aeon Logistics】, he wouldn't need to live in fear like he was now.

Although there were factional struggles within this universal giant enterprise, and there were quite a few bad seeds among the dragons, it was still better than the Federation.

Unfortunately, just when Li Ang thought the matter had been resolved, the communication device on his right wrist suddenly began to vibrate continuously.

With a feeling of inexplicable unease, he clicked on the message page, and then dense new messages appeared before the three dragons.

【Warning! Warning! A Seventh-Level Zerg Queen officially broke through the Federation's defense line yesterday. All Federation citizens in the Obsidian Star Sector are requested to take precautions and seek the Viceroy's protection when necessary】...

【Hot mature woman, sexy young wife】...

【Respected Viceroy, please do not leave your jurisdiction planet without authorization recently, and provide mandatory protection for Federation citizens】...

Most of these were sent by the Federation officials, but there were also a few private messages mixed in.

At this moment, even if Li Ang didn't click on these messages to view the details, he could already realize what had happened from their titles.

That Seventh-Level Zerg Queen had successfully broken through the blockade of the 9000th Army Group; it was unknown whether the 9000th Army Group was too useless or the Zerg Queen was too strong, but in any case, the other party had officially entered the Obsidian Star Sector.

"..."

Recalling Martin's confident appearance a while ago, Li Ang's face fell, not knowing what to say.

Although a small part of the news was sent to planet Viceroys like him, most of the rest was sent to every Federation citizen in the Obsidian Star Sector.

And after experiencing so many worlds, Li Ang understood one thing very clearly.

That is, for those in power, they only choose to make it public when a matter of great harm can no longer be hidden.

Therefore, it was clear that the Zerg Queen had broken through the Army Group's blockade some time ago, and the message from Martin also confirmed this point.

【The day before yesterday, that Zerg Queen severely injured the Army Lord after paying a huge price; now she has escaped the Army Group's control and I don't know where she ran off to. Be careful during this time; if you find any abnormalities, remember to report them in time】.

The Army Lord was severely injured; this was no small matter.

Although Li Ang had never met the other party, he knew that she was a Seventh-Level professional like the bratty councilor.

Although according to Martin, that Zerg Queen wasn't having a good time either, Li Ang had no heart to care about these things.

Right now, a doubt arose in his heart: where did Afra go?

Under normal circumstances, it was impossible for this bratty councilor to watch such a thing happen in the star sector under her jurisdiction.

After looking at Sophia, whose expression was also extremely serious, Li Ang replied to Martin.

【I want to report...】

He was prepared to inform the other party of Ize's existence, but the reason used was that the other party had once had a conflict with 【Immortal Evolution】.

If it were in peacetime, Li Ang might have been labeled with slander.

But in the current special period...

Who could question his patriotism!

He also sent the same information to Afra, but unfortunately, the other party did not reply.

Fortunately, Martin's response was very quick.

【When did this happen?】

【Just these two days.】

【I will report it to the Army Lord; don't alert the enemy.】

After a brief exchange, Martin's avatar went dark.

Seeing this, Li Ang put away the communication device and looked up at Sophia, who was sending a message.

With such a major event happening, she naturally needed to inform 【Aeon Logistics】.

A moment later, Sophia let out a light breath and said: "Grandfather already knows what happened here; he told us to stay calm and not be impatient, and the Group will soon send personnel to meet us."

But although she said so, she still couldn't help but frown slightly.

Seventh-Level...

If it were in the hometown that Sophia had never been to, it would already be comparable to a god.

And once an existence like this takes action, it is undoubtedly a catastrophe for all living beings.

At this moment, she was in the middle of this catastrophe.

Seemingly seeing the unease in Sophia's heart, Li Ang patted her arm to comfort her: "Relax, the Baal Star Cluster is still some distance from the border; we shouldn't be that unlucky."

Actually, Li Ang wanted to pat her shoulder, but unfortunately, this old driver was too tall, so he had to settle for patting her arm.

Hearing this, Sophia nodded slightly, a somewhat complex smile appearing on her face: "I know, it's just... forget it, thank you for your comfort."

Unlike the two dragons Li Ang and Iris, Iris still didn't quite understand what had happened until now.

It was just a big bug; she didn't know what there was to be afraid of.

But it didn't matter; if this big bug threatened Mother Sophia and Master Li Ang, then Iris would let the other party know that she hadn't eaten so much dirt for nothing!

Thinking of this, the little dog-dragon held the metal block and began to gnaw on it like a hamster.

At the same time, on the other side.

Ize and Centipede were standing in the courtyard, quietly watching the brilliant starry sky above.

After a brief silence, the alchemy master covered in tattoos let out a light breath, then curled the corners of his mouth slightly, saying with some emotion: "After so many years, I can finally take the next step."

"Start it; who knows when I'll have to wait until if I miss this time, and Afra should have already noticed the anomaly."

Hearing this, Centipede scratched his hair and said lazily: "You sure know how to order people around."

"This was your mission to begin with; otherwise, why would the Group send you here."

"Oh, I know, it's really troublesome."

Facing his companion's warning, Centipede curled his lip speechlessly.

Immediately after, without any movement from him, several hideous jointed limbs suddenly pierced through his back and extended out.

However, as a terrifying whimper sounded from his throat, Centipede's expression gradually became strange.

A moment later, he turned his head to look at the person beside him and said in a somewhat strange tone: "That Zerg Queen is heading towards Morabis Star."

"...?" Ize was stunned for a moment and asked subconsciously, "The reason?"

"Let me see..."

Centipede scratched his head and then began to search for relevant information in a certain neural network.

After seeing a key piece of information, a flash of astonishment appeared on his face.

"Dragon... Dragon?!"

As Centipede spat out these words, the two couldn't help but look at each other.

Dragon, Morabis Star...

They weren't fools; they naturally knew who this information pointed to.

Ize immediately frowned tightly and muttered to himself: "Could it be that I missed some information?"

As someone who had dealt with the target, he felt that with the strength the other party had shown, he shouldn't have misjudged him.

Unless...

"See, I told you that little dragon cub had problems."

The muttering pulled Ize back to reality.

Now was not the right time to argue with the bug-scientist beside him; after all, his decades of planning had reached the most critical step.

'Tsk... if my main body were here, this wouldn't have happened.'

'But that little dragon cub is at most Fifth-Level; he shouldn't be able to stir up any trouble.'

Thinking of this, Ize had a plan in his heart.

Seemingly seeing through what he was thinking, Centipede couldn't help but say: "Let's get this straight, I won't help you fight."

"... don't need you to take action."

Ize rolled his eyes, not surprised by Centipede's words.

This guy had almost driven himself crazy studying bugs; if it weren't for the fact that the plan required his cooperation, Ize wouldn't even want to deal with him.

Just then, a cold, childish voice suddenly spread throughout the entire Obsidian Star Sector.

"Immortal Evolution! You are courting death!"

It was Afra; this councilor who hadn't been seen for a long time had finally appeared.

Responding to her was a voice mixed with men, women, old, and young: "Afra, why are you so hot-tempered at your age? Or is it that your mind, like your body, has never developed?"

"What? Do you need us to perform surgery for you?"

"Don't worry, we won't charge you."

Without a doubt, these words hit Afra's minefield with extreme precision.

This bratty councilor didn't say anything more, just prepared to leave the speaker with a lesson they would never forget.

Feeling the chill that was almost enough to swallow people whole, Li Ang's expression became increasingly serious.

The sudden change made him realize that no matter what 【Immortal Evolution】 was planning to do, it had reached a critical node; otherwise, they couldn't have rashly torn their face with the Federation.

'What about the councilors of the surrounding star sectors? Are they just watching such a big thing happen in the Obsidian Star Sector without even looking?'

Just as Li Ang was puzzled by this, an inexplicable sense of threat caused him to suddenly strip away all his disguises.

Boom—!

With a huge roar that tore through the sky, terrifying energy poured in, instantly turning the Viceroy's Mansion and the wide plain behind it into powder.

As far as the eye could see, the earth looked as if a piece of flesh had been cut out of it, leaving only a huge pit that swallowed everything.

Before the dust that was enough to cover the sky, Ize retracted the dragon head on his shoulder into his body.

He looked at the empty scene in front of him, feeling a bit puzzled in his heart: "... ead?"

An existence that could make a Seventh-Level Zerg Queen come voluntarily, just died like this?

With a somewhat speechless mind, Ize couldn't help but scratch his head.

However, just as he was about to leave, a gray-white bone spur appeared out of thin air behind him.

"Ha! I knew it!"

Facing the sneak attack, Ize revealed an 'as expected' expression and flashed to a distance.

Looking at the young man slowly walking out of the black space opposite, the alchemy master revealed an interested expression: "Fifth-Level? I actually didn't see it."

"There really is something wrong with you."

"I've changed my mind; I'll leave a spot for you on my body."

Hearing this, Li Ang just stared at the other party coldly.

As early as when Afra and the unknown existence made their move, he had already become vigilant, so Ize's sneak attack naturally didn't succeed, and the Viceroy's Mansion personnel along with the 【Alchemy Kingdom】 had already been received into his 【Heavenly Imperial Middle】.

And since they had already made their move, there was no need for him to continue hiding.

After using 【Great Luo Cave Observation】, which he hadn't used before to avoid attracting attention, Li Ang successfully saw through the essence of the person opposite, and also knew why he could appear at the Secret Blood Company headquarters and Morabis Star at the same time.

"Heh... I didn't see it either; you're actually just a split body."
