Chapter 572: Yu Bo’s vest may be exposed?

Kostat was startled, looking at the ferocious face of Adam on the screen. Since Adam became the Holy Emperor, he had never lost his composure like this...

No... He thought again of the time when the Star of Eternal Silence was lost. Perhaps he had behaved in the same way then, but he did not see it.

However, Adam's loss of composure did not last long. To be more precise, it was only a moment before his ferocious facial features gradually subsided.

His self-control ability was amazing. After taking a deep breath, he sat down again.

What he meant by "strong" not only refers to strength, but also means.

After all, that is the Holy Castle. The three major civilizations have trained a group of people specifically to find the Holy Castle.

Even so, the Holy Castle is still difficult to find through conventional means, and it is even impossible to determine when the Holy Castle will revive.

So, when Heckler found that method, he was actually very conflicted. He didn't want to see the other party succeed, but the whole thing had extraordinary benefits for the empire.

Although he tried to stop them secretly, he also kept a certain limit. After he found out that the other party had found the chosen one, he hesitated again and again before deciding not to make any secret moves.

As a result, he only realized now that everything he had done before was actually meaningless, and the Holy Castle had almost been taken over by Qinglong.

This kind of failure in his methods dealt him a deeper blow than even the strength displayed by Qinglong.

Seeing that Adam seemed to have calmed down a bit, Prince Costat explained, "I tried to close the space-time curtain, but the fragments of the Eternal Star seemed to solidify. I tried many methods, but failed."

“It’s not important…”

Adam slowly closed his eyes, as if trying to calm himself, all the information he knew so far intertwined.

What surprised him even more was that if it weren't for the two Titan branches that suddenly appeared, they would still be kept in the dark about everything about the Holy Castle.

Foolishly exerting force on the Holy Castle.

It was hard for him to imagine how Qinglong had escaped from the interstellar space and accomplished all this. Could it be that he was also a branch of Titan?

He frowned. The only good news now was that Qinglong had not really obtained the things in the Holy Castle.

Otherwise, once they disappear, they really will be nowhere to be found.

There was a lot of information contained in the video, and Adam went over it in his mind again.

There was no doubt that Qinglong was threatening, but he discovered something rather subtle, which made his expression look a little strange.

Overall, the empire's two-front plan can be called a failure.

But from his personal point of view, at least in the matter of the Holy Castle, it was not all bad.

First, Heckler did not open the Holy Castle, and by accident, the entire galaxy knew about it.

The Federation and the Covenant will inevitably intervene in this matter next.

Officially, he is the only one who can come forward and mediate with other civilizations, and Heckler will have to let him take over this matter.

Secondly, he had always wanted to provoke a fight between Heckler and Qinglong, and this time, the two had almost irreconcilably collided.

Although he will have the opportunity to set foot in the Holy Castle, Heckler will never be willing to leave without gaining anything.

He can continue with his plan and use Qinglong's hand to cut off some people he doesn't want to see.

Inexplicably, his plan was back on track and even made a big step forward.

Realizing this, Adam's anger dissipated helplessly, and his emotions became more complicated. He clenched and unclenched his hands.

Now, he even wants to thank Qinglong.

He heaved a sigh of relief and shook his head secretly, thinking that thanking him was nonsense.

But Adam has already figured out what's next.

Qinglong has become an extremely troublesome problem, but this problem is not limited to the empire.

For Qinglong, this was probably an emergency. He definitely didn't want to face the three major civilizations like this, otherwise he wouldn't have been hiding before.

"But now it's irreversible unless he abandons the Holy Castle and disappears."

"How to open the Holy Fortress is a problem, but that's not a problem now. The Empire can no longer monopolize it..."

"... Heckler, I've already given you a chance, so don't blame me for being ruthless..."

As his thoughts turned, he had already made up his mind.

When he opened his eyes again, his expression and eyes had returned to normal.

There was even a hint of fighting spirit.

Costat, who had been silent the whole time, noticed this and couldn't help but feel relieved.

As a direct witness to the whole incident, he was even more frightened and even developed an indelible fear of Qinglong.

But seeing the Holy Emperor adjust to his condition so quickly was like a shot of adrenaline for him.

"Anyway, come back first. There will be a lot of things next and I need your help." Adam looked at Costat and said in a deep voice.

Although he didn't say anything to comfort him this time, the look in Costat's eyes when he looked at Adam ignited a little fire in his gloomy heart.

Yes, they are an empire and have experienced many ups and downs.

At the moment, the actual losses are not too great, so how can we be so discouraged?

Kostat's eyes gradually hardened, and he said solemnly, "I understand."

After the screen went out, Adam's eyes flickered, but there was actually another thing supporting his confidence.

The Azure Dragon is obviously a living being of flesh and blood. Its attack is simple and unpretentious, relying on pure physical strength. It is most likely a genetically evolved being.

It is estimated that it has evolved to the limit on this path. To be so strong, it must have superimposed genetic seeds, and is destined to be unable to become the ultimate life form.

"That's why you have to train Li Ming. It's impossible for you to advance further, but he has hope..." Adam pulled up a top-secret report from the "Domination Research Institute."

"...a substance extracted from the corpse has the ability to increase development potential. Further analysis is underway..."

The ultimate life form is the great force that determines everything.

………

Outside the Holy Fortress, the Imperial Fleet had retreated a long distance, and various observation methods were aimed at the Holy Fortress in the center, but the energy shield on the surface blocked some detection methods, and it could only be observed with the naked eye.

On the deck of a warship, Heckler's chest heaved as he stared intently at the Holy Castle not far away, still shrouded in a faint chill.

"Retreat a distance further." He gave the order out of uneasiness in his heart, fearing that the Holy Castle would suddenly shoot out a beam of light and sweep them to death.

Not far from him, Morris lowered his head, his body trembling slightly, his face dejected and numb.

My father...actually...actually died...

The faith in his heart almost collapsed, because that was his almost omnipotent father.

My father has always been deeply wary of this star region. Even though he has evolved to the limit, he is still reluctant to come here easily.

In the past, he had been somewhat disdainful, thinking his father was too cautious.

But unexpectedly, this time he came here under his suggestion, and died tragically not long after he appeared.

The danger level of this star field is even more terrifying than his father expected.

Tandin's eyes swept over him and found that he was too sad and probably had no intention of taking action in the short term, so he felt slightly relieved.

He frowned and looked towards the Holy Castle, a trace of deep fear flashing across his eyes. He said in a deep voice, "This matter is no longer something we can handle. Let's report it first and prepare to integrate the power of the entire empire."

"Integrate the empire?" Heckler resisted subconsciously, his face looking a little ugly.

He had been responsible for finding the Holy Castle from the very beginning.

Once the power of the empire is integrated, Adam will definitely find an opportunity to intervene, and half of the credit will be taken away. Even if it is successful in the future, it will be difficult to compete with Adam.

"The Black King's strength is no less than mine, yet he was severely injured by Azure Dragon. His strength is far beyond imagination. I have no confidence in breaking through."

"If you don't want to report, I'll do it."

Tandin said bluntly that he was too lazy to care about the royal disputes and did not want the interests of the empire to be harmed.

Heckler's expression changed, still somewhat unwilling, but after thinking about it, he could only sigh helplessly.

Qinglong's methods and strength are beyond imagination, this is the only way.

"I don't know what's going on with the Star of Eternal Silence. Adam seems very confident. If he gets the Star of Eternal Silence, he..."

Heckler thought more and couldn't help feeling a little angry.

Damn Qinglong, why does he have to go against me!

This was of course just an emotional outburst, and Heckler quickly recovered.

He took the smart terminal from his subordinates and prepared to report the matter in person.

However, Adam's news came faster than his report.

The series of information, mixed with video footage, surprised Heckler.

He frowned and looked carefully, but was almost shocked to jump up. The breath of life gushed out uncontrollably, shattering the smart terminal in his hand into pieces.

"Bring the spare terminal, bring it quickly!" Heckler's pupils were bloodshot and he gritted his teeth.

The men around him looked terrified.

Tandin folded his arms, frowned slightly, not knowing what had happened.

The spare smart terminal was delivered quickly. Heckler opened it tremblingly, and Tandin also glanced over.

After a moment, his expression changed drastically, and he asked in astonishment, "The entire galaxy knows about this?"

“Haha…haha…haha…” Heckler’s shoulders shrugged, his breathing was rapid, and he looked like a madman. When he raised his head, his ferocious face startled everyone: “Costat, you idiot, waste, waste!”

He cursed angrily that the entire incident was actually being broadcast live in the deep dimensional world, and that nearly a hundred X-level life forms had witnessed it.

The Federation and the Covenant will inevitably intervene. Not to mention giving Adam a share of the credit, it’s hard to say whether the Empire can even reap the benefits.

He worked so hard for so long and even lost two X-level life forms, but ended up building bridges for others.

"How could this idiot not know how to destroy it and just watch the secret exposed to the entire galaxy!" Heckler wanted to cut Costa into pieces.

Tan Ding's expression changed, but he finally shook his head helplessly and said, "It seems that we don't have to worry about how to deal with Qinglong."

Heckler felt dejected. He never thought that the damned Star of Eternal Silence would actually reflect the scene in this holy castle.

"But..." He suddenly reacted and looked fiercely at the Holy Castle.

"If I can't get it, Qinglong won't get it either. The three great civilizations are attacking us together. I'll see how you escape!"

…

At the same time, in the deep dimensional world, Li Ming has reunited with the pioneers. His spaceship is damaged, and getting back is a little troublesome.

However, there are still several Pioneer ships nearby.

This was the first time he had seen the true form of the Navigator and the Forger, so he had no impression of them. They were not X-level life forms that were active in the interstellar space.

"Your Excellency Qinglong..." The Forger greeted him, but the Navigator, who had some conflicts with him, looked a little awkward at the moment.

"This is the first time we've met in person," Li Ming replied calmly. "Thank you for your hard work in finding the Star of Eternal Silence."

"It's my duty." The Caster responded immediately, feeling a little strange in his heart.

This was clearly a conversation between a superior and an inferior, but he did not feel uncomfortable.

"You're going to be in big trouble next." The navigator said directly, "The three major civilizations won't let you go easily."

"Oh?" Li Ming looked over and said nothing. "What do you think?"

"I don't have any ideas." The navigator's face was gloomy. "But if you need help, we might be able to provide some."

Li Ming was surprised and looked up and down at the other person. He didn't expect that the first person willing to help him would be this guy.

The navigator felt increasingly uncomfortable being looked at, and said directly, "Don't get me wrong, I just want the Empire to die. Right now, you're probably the most likely person to do that."

"You may not be able to help much in terms of strength..." Li Ming pondered, the navigator's mouth twitched, but he didn't say anything.

"However, in terms of resources, can you provide some cutting-edge metal alloys?"

Since the other party said he wanted to help, Li Ming naturally would not be polite. After all, two fragments of the Star of Eternal Silence would require hundreds of billions of metal energy.

"No problem." The navigator nodded immediately and said calmly, "I still have some resources. I will turn most of them into metal alloys. Where will I send them?"

"The Mechanical Royal Court will do." Li Ming was really surprised. He didn't know what grudge this guy had with the empire, but he was so generous.

"Well, I can provide some help." The Forger saw the mecha's head turned around, suspected of looking at him, and could only nod reluctantly.

"No problem for me." Florian agreed decisively, "I'll provide some resources."

The Holy Revolutionary Army was beaten into a coward and urgently needed some time to rest and even make a comeback.

Naturally, someone is needed to attract the attention of the empire and even other civilizations.

The longer Qinglong can hold on, the better it will be for him, so he doesn't mind providing some help.

"Thank you all very much." Li Ming couldn't help but feel satisfied and realized it.

Although fighting against the three major civilizations is very risky, you will also be matched with some teammates.

Unfortunately, most of them are minor characters and don't provide much help.

"There is also the Blood-Falling One. He is a high-ranking official in the empire and should have some understanding of the empire's future movements." The Forger reminded.

The navigator said coldly, "I advise you all to remain vigilant against this Blood-Dying One."

The creator was surprised and asked questions repeatedly.

The navigator didn't explain much, and he didn't have any substantial evidence, just some speculation.

Li Ming did not reveal the identity of the person who lost blood, and maybe he could use this to trick Adam later.
