Chapter 1422: Chapter 1142: The Forgotten Ones_3
Long Yi thought carefully; he should still have some Energy Alloy left in his private space! According to the description given by Kasha, even though the members of The Forgotten Ones were short in stature, their warriors all rode in armors made of Energy Alloy. Judging from the suit of armor he encountered just now, the average height of these armors should be about the same as his own!
So Long Yi took out the Energy Alloy he had left in his private space, only to find, to his surprise, that this Energy Alloy had also turned into powder.
Could it be?
He hurriedly analyzed the composition of this Energy Alloy while also obtaining information on its energy form from the greedy serpent. With the help of various means, Long Yi finally understood that this so-called Energy Alloy was completely a product of Crystal Poison combined with metal. With this conclusion, Long Yi could immediately replicate Energy Alloy and then create a suit of armor completely in the style of The Forgotten Ones.
Yes, an exact replica of the armor he had just seen.
After doing all this, Long Yi put on the armor and was preparing to head to the Imperial Capital. Suddenly, there was a spatial fluctuation not far away, followed by a group of about a dozen warriors clad in Energy Alloy armor walking out.
"Eh? Another one?" The leading warrior, with a very obvious identification badge on his chest, strode up to Long Yi.
Had he been discovered? Should he strike first to kill them?
"I knew you damned recruits liked to slack off. Did you think you could hide this far and I wouldn’t find you? Get in line now, or I’ll break your legs for dawdling!"
Eh? Was his luck this good?
Long Yi quickly ran into the group of people. It was clear that these were all new recruits, and they seemed to have been captured and brought back.
"Damn it, I don’t know where this damned order came from above, demanding reinforcements. I have already retired, and they fucking recall me and want me to train you little bastards. Even if you ungrateful shits don’t appreciate it, I don’t care. I don’t even bother to notice what hideous faces you have under those armors. But what’s with this halfway escape? I just went to sleep, and you all ran away, making my superior discover an empty training ground during his inspection! You really have some nerve! Wait until we get back to the training ground, and see how I make you suffer!"
The cursing person was obviously the recruits’ instructor; with a torrent of scolds, Long Yi understood what was happening. Clearly, the white-skinned person he accidentally killed was also a fleeing recruit, and this instructor was out looking for the recruits. As for why there were reinforcements, Long Yi also had an idea. Throughout history, the purpose of reinforcements had only one purpose, and that was for war, with no exception.
The instructor continued to curse and then raised his hand; everyone immediately disappeared in a beam of light. When Long Yi reappeared, he was already in a closed indoor space. Many warriors were fighting each other here, and when this group appeared, many warriors stopped.
"What are you looking at? Do you want to learn from these wastes too? Continue fighting!" Another group’s instructor cursed.
So this group was so despised.
However, Long Yi had no time to ponder these things, for he suddenly felt a long-lost sense of familiarity!
It was Elsa!
Long Yi almost immediately locked onto Elsa’s position from within the crowd, and almost at the same time, Elsa also immediately sensed Long Yi’s bond. However, neither of them made any extra moves because now they had both disguised themselves as warriors.
Elsa stood in the distance; although she did not move, her gaze was always fixed on Long Yi. And Long Yi also stared at Elsa unmovingly. Even separated by armors, they seemed as if they could see right through each other!
"You..."
"I..."
Although they had many things to say, Long Yi and Elsa felt as if they could say nothing at all.
In the end, it was Long Yi who regained his composure first.
"How did you end up here?" Long Yi asked.
"Actually, I came here for help," Elsa said.
The events Go back to more than ten days ago.
"I decided to visit their Home Star because, according to Gulu, their Emperor seemed like a pacifist who did not wish for the race to expand externally. I thought I might receive some help there," Elsa said to Selena and Sajia in the Emperor’s study. The Emperor was sitting behind the desk; he had long since ceased to directly oversee government affairs, spending his days focusing on self-cultivation, with the nation’s authority largely in the hands of Selena and Sajia.
"No way! Absolutely not!" Elsa had barely spoken before she was met with opposition from all three people, including the Emperor.
"Why not?" Elsa asked, puzzled.
"Why not? Do you even need to ask? Who can guarantee that Emperor is really a pacifist? What if it’s just a disguise?" Sajia immediately shouted.
"Yes, I agree with Big Brother’s point of view. After all, they are of the same race. And we are the outsiders. Going there directly is like putting yourself in the lion’s mouth; it’s too dangerous," Selena said.
"Father, what do you think?" Sajia turned to the Emperor, who was holding a book for support. However, the Emperor put down the book and said solemnly, "I don’t think Elsa would be so foolish as to take such a risk. I believe you must have your reasons."
Elsa smiled and said, "Before confirming someone as a friend, always keep a measure of caution—that’s what Brother Long taught me, and I always keep it in mind. So, of course, I wouldn’t be foolish enough to directly seek out that white-skinned Emperor."
"What do you mean?" Selena hurriedly asked.
"According to my plan, I’ll infiltrate that planet first and take some time to understand what this race is all about. Then I’ll work my way up to their higher echelons, cultivating good relations with some of them. In the end, I will have the chance to meet their Emperor—if their Emperor turns out to be my friend, I will seek his help. Even if he does not assist me, I can ensure he won’t aid my enemies. And if that Emperor isn’t my friend, then I will end his life right there!" Elsa explained.
