Chapter 255: The Key to Evolution, a Transaction with the Reborn Empire [5.2k]

"No, we can't go on like this!"

Seeing that the spaceship was about to fly near the star gate, the temporary captain Antoine gritted his teeth and decided to destroy the spaceship directly.

As a assassin who lured Bai Fu into the trap, his strength was actually not that strong, just a peak A-level.

Therefore, it is actually a little difficult for him to destroy the spacecraft.

But fortunately, others are inside the spacecraft, and with more time, they can destroy the spacecraft's operating system and power system.

"Go to the weapons warehouse..."

Antoine was halfway through his words when the small door on the side of the cockpit suddenly opened, revealing a row of rescue robots.

Shouldn't these robots be sleeping in the warehouse? Why are they... Oh no!
Antoine realized the danger, but it was too late.

We must not let the spaceship be destroyed by the thug Antoine!

With this idea in mind, the rescue robots drew their weapons.

Biubiubiu!

After a series of shootings and explosions, the cockpit of the spacecraft was shattered into pieces, and so was Antoine lying on the ground.

"It's over."

This was Antoine's last thought before he lost consciousness.

The enemy must have had great motives to go to such lengths to deal with them, but he was too exhausted to think about that now.

After the dust settled, the rescue robots filed into the cockpit. They stood in a neat square, staring straight ahead, as if they were being inspected by their new master, Bai Fu.

Not bad.

The virtual heart created by this master-level mechanic is really amazing.

Bai Fu tapped the heels of her high heels.

Da da da da…

One after another.

To the ears of the head of state's confidant who was in constant communication with her, this voice was like a heavy hammer falling on the heart, making it so suffocating that she couldn't even breathe.

Spicy balls!

All are spicy!

This mission...why did it turn out like this?
Time passes minute by minute.

Soon after, the spaceship in front arrived at the star gate leading to the planet Povaria, and the pursuing fleet quickly followed. The two sides always maintained an ambiguous distance that would not be lost, but also would not be caught up.

"You guys stay here and watch. I'll contact Nelis and ask if Lister has any reaction."

After saying this, Bai Fu returned to her room.

She pretended to communicate with Nelis first, then opened the game map. On the map, the red dot representing the Eye of Dark Moon finally stopped after moving for several days.

"Have we arrived at the base of the Ten Saints?"

Bai Fu turned the effect of Dark Moon Eye to maximum.

Gradually, she heard footsteps approaching and loud laughter.

"Frank, the last time we met was six years ago, right? Haha, welcome, welcome. The Saint is waiting for you. Come with me."

Saint?
Bai Fu opened the task panel, and sure enough, Branch 2 of the hidden main storyline [The Return of the Exiles] that was triggered a while ago was already in a submittable state.

She decisively destroyed the Dark Moon Eye to prevent it from being discovered and found out.

Submit the task.

Bai Fu stretched out her hand.

[You have completed the hidden main quest [Return of the Exiles] Branch 2 and received the reward Evolution Key]

Looking at the milky white ball of light that looked like a key appearing in the palm of her hand, Bai Fu's brows were filled with joy.

"Let me be healthy!"

A line of item description popped up.

[Key of Evolution]: The key to open the door to life evolution. After use, you can specify the direction of the next evolution.

"What the hell?"

Bai Fu was shocked after reading the prop description.

As super-powered people's strength increases, they will experience multiple life evolutions. These evolutions seem to be controllable, but in fact they are just choosing a relatively better race from a limited number of options. No one knows what they will become after the selection, and everything will only be revealed after the evolution is truly completed.

This may lead to the final result of evolution not being what the super-powered person actually expects.

Take Bai Fu herself as an example. The process of evolution will trigger attribute correction. As a mage tank, she definitely hopes that she can get more correction in physique and inspiration. But in reality, she may get more correction in inspiration, but it is hard to say about physique.

But now with the Key of Evolution, this problem is no longer a problem!
The Key of Evolution can not only set the direction of attribute correction, but also set the direction of evolution of skills, talents, resistance, etc. It is simply amazing.

"It's worthy of being the reward for the hidden main quest!"

Bai Fu quickly looked through the specific content of the next task that had been triggered.

The new mission [The Saint's Wail] is very simple and straightforward, which is to destroy the foothold and give the returning Ten Saints a warning.

The mission rewards are currently unknown and are determined based on the mission contribution.

Judging from the value of the reward for the previous mission, the reward for this new mission is definitely very generous, but...

Bai Fu shook her head.

It is said that the strength of that saint has reached an extraordinary level. This is not an opponent she can deal with at all. She should just hand over the information honestly to the three major cosmic civilizations. It will be enough for her to get some benefits from this hidden main line. The main line of the Taim civilization is the stage for her to truly shine.

Bai Fu put away the Key of Evolution and continued to observe the movements of the Glorious Forces' spaceship.

……

A day and a half later.

Povaria, the temporary gathering place of the Ten Saints.

A group of bored people gathered together to chat.

"Master Frank is really lucky. Although the operation failed, he successfully replaced Master Fire Rat and went to meet the Saint."

"When Lord Fire Rat wakes up and finds that his position has been replaced by Frank, he will probably be furious, because he was the one who was charging in the front."

"Hush, just think about this kind of thing in your heart. Do you think your life is too long if you bring it out loud?"

“This… hehe.”

The people chatting smiled awkwardly and did not continue this sensitive topic.

Just as they were about to change the subject, the entire factory suddenly shook violently, making a rumbling sound.

"what happened?"

"Could it be that Master Frank has returned and heard what we just said?"

"No, Master Frank. That symbol... is the Glorious Force. The Glorious Force's spacecraft suddenly broke into the sky above the factory. Be alert. Everyone, be alert immediately!"

"Why the hell did the Glorious Army suddenly attack us?"

The factory where Frank had been hiding suddenly became a mess.

Someone rushed out to attack the Glorious Force's spaceship.

Someone on the ground urgently activated the defense system.

Someone also contacted Frank who was still on his way back.

Frank was originally in a good mood, but when he heard that his "hometown" was attacked, he suddenly felt as disgusted as if he had eaten a fly while having a big meal.

"Who gave the Glorious Army the courage?"

No, the point of the problem does not seem to be here, but why the Glorious Army wants to attack there.

Povaria is just an ordinary planet. It has no military facilities, no important industrial facilities, and its geographical location is also unremarkable. Logically speaking, an organization like the Glorious Forces has no reason to attack here.

unless……

"How many spaceships are coming from the opposite side?" Frank asked quickly.

"Just one... No, there are more than one spaceship. Dozens of them are coming. Sir Frank, the situation is very urgent now. If you don't come back quickly, we may not be able to hold on!"

Frank's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Dozens of spaceships arrived at once, it was obvious that they came well prepared!
There are only two possibilities for the other party to make such a big fuss.

One possibility is that the other party is seeking revenge on him.

Another possibility is that the other party has discovered that it is a gathering point for the Ten Saints Society.

The Ten Saints had just returned not long ago and were not yet ready to be fully exposed. If they were exposed at this time, and if they were exposed because of him, the saints would probably be so angry that they would want to kill him.

"Why did it happen when I just got promoted? I can't make it back now. My luck is too..."

what!
Frank was startled.

Is it possible that it wasn't just bad luck, but that the other party deliberately chose to attack when he was not around?
As for why the other party knew he was away, was it possible that there was a traitor among them?
Provoke ahhhhhhhhh…

Frank was furious: "Hurry up and contact the members of the Povaria Planetary Defense Council and see what they say."

"Yes."

A few minutes later Frank received a reply from his men.

"Our application for defense assistance was rejected. The people from the Povaria Planetary Defense Council said that the people who attacked us were the Führer's special forces and they had no right to stop them." "Führer?! Isn't it the Glorious Forces? How did it become the Führer?"

"I was also very confused, so I specifically asked about it, and their answer was that there is no such thing as a glorious unit."

Deliberately disguising themselves as a glorious force?

Never mind. There's no point worrying about this now.

Frank was as anxious as an ant in a frying pan.

He had no grudge against the Leader, so the only possible reason why the Leader sent people to attack him at this time was that he discovered that he was related to the Ten Saints Society.

"Damn it, the Führer must be trying to boost his approval rating by attacking the Ten Saints Society because his approval rating has been extremely low recently. Fine, fine, you bastard, I'll make you understand what kind of monster you provoked!"

Frank knew that the situation in Povaria was beyond saving, so he immediately contacted the Saint and told him what had happened in Povaria.

Fortunately for him, the saint did not scold him, but fell into a long silence.

"Saint, what should we do now?"

"Since the Führer is attacking Povaria instead of me, that means the insider who leaked the information to him is from your side. Otherwise, he would never attack Povaria first, because doing so would only alert the enemy."

"Yes, yes, that's the saint's opinion." Frank was sweating profusely.

The saint said calmly: "Now that things have come to this, we can only give up Povaria. Frank, you should just come back."

How could Frank dare to say no? Even though he would be punished if he went back, he had no choice but to go back. Being punished was better than being hunted down by the Ten Saints.

……

While Frank was communicating with the saint tremblingly, the Führer's confidants were also contacting the Führer.

"Something is wrong on the Povaria planet. As soon as we showed up, the people in the factory attacked us desperately. After I shouted that I was the captain of your special forces, they not only did not stop, but fought even more fiercely."

As the Führer listened, he stared intently at the map opposite him.

Damn it.

He originally wanted to take this opportunity to kill Bai Fu and completely intensify the conflict between Nelis and Gustav. However, because a traitor appeared in the Glorious Corps, his plan completely failed.

When will I have to wait for the next opportunity to trick Bai Fu into killing her?

irritable.

depressed.

Furious.

As the saying goes, when the emperor gets angry, millions of people will die. Although he is not an emperor now, but just a "down-and-out" head of state, when he gets angry, at least a few people will die, right?

"Since they choose to resist to the end, it means they must be guilty of something. Let's go and get rid of them all!"

After giving orders to his confidants, the Führer went to find the commander-in-chief of the Glorious Forces.

It’s still that word——

kill!

Kill all the traitors!
While the saints and the head of state were wielding butcher knives to kill their own people, Bai Fu was happily eating melons.

There was no need for her to get involved in bullying Frank's men. It was enough to let the players have fun driving the spaceship. She was already thinking about which of the three major cosmic civilizations to find to exchange for advanced knowledge.

Supernova? Titan Industries? Reborn Empire?
Come to think of it, she knew nothing about these three civilizations.

The information on the Internet only said that these three civilizations had a long history and were powerful, but no deeper information could be found, such as which one had more reserves of dominant-level psychic knowledge and which one was more willing to cooperate with others.

"It seems that I can only ask for help from the almighty Doraemon!"

After the United Leader's cronies dealt with Frank's men and were on their way back to Lockheed, Bai Fu contacted Yin Zhu.

"I found the base of the Ten Saints in the fringe world."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Yin Zhu, who was helping the Lord of the Oath to trim the garden, almost fell off the ladder.

"How did you offend the Ten Saints again?"

"It wasn't me who provoked them..." Bai Fu roughly explained the situation.

"You chose not to actively intervene, but to sell this information to the three cosmic civilizations. It is a very wise choice. The Ten Saints Society is very strong, much stronger than the Star Covenant. In the past, they have caused a lot of trouble for the three cosmic civilizations. Until now, they are still on the wanted list of the three cosmic civilizations. Therefore, if the three cosmic civilizations knew that you found the foothold of the Ten Saints Society, they would definitely reward you generously."

Yin Zhu walked back and forth in the garden. After a long time, she finally replied to Bai Fu.

"If your goal is Overlord-level advanced knowledge, then your best trading partner is the Reborn Empire. Remember what I told you before? The advanced knowledge that the Lord of the Oath gave you was obtained from the Reborn Empire's Virtual Realm Research Institute. Although the Supernova Corps and Titan Industries also have Overlord-level psychic advanced knowledge, it is definitely not as rich as the Virtual Realm Research Institute."

Bai Fu nodded. She also intended to cooperate with the Rebirth Empire.

Yin Zhu continued, "This is the contact information of a member of the Rebirth Empire Security Bureau. I will send it to you now. Please be more careful when trading with the Rebirth Empire. If your information is proven to be true, you will definitely be able to exchange for more than two Domination-level advanced knowledge. You can try to ask them for more of what you need now."

Good guy.

Is this information so valuable?

Bai Fu's brain was working rapidly.

She had already thought about what extra she should ask for from the Reborn Empire—

Body strengthening items!

It would be best if there was a prop that could allow her to complete a racial evolution.

In this way, when she is promoted to the Overlord, she can evolve once more, and get the rewards of evolution twice in total, which will directly win at the starting line compared to other Overlords.

"Thank you for your reminder, Miss Yinzhu."

Yin Zhu smiled and said, "If you have any trouble or questions, feel free to come to me. I will help you wherever I can."

Bai Fu said: "I will remember the help you two have given me, Lord of the Oath and Miss Yin Zhu."

After finishing the conversation with Yin Zhu, she immediately contacted the contact number sent by Yin Zhu to prevent the people from the Ten Saints Association from temporarily changing their whereabouts.

……

Billions of light years away.

The crown star region of the universe within the Rebirth Empire.

Julian walked into his office in the second branch of the Security Bureau. He took off his loose coat and sat down on the one-piece composite chair. He rested his hands on the back of his head and looked very relaxed, as if he was not here to work but on vacation.

In fact, when Julian first joined the Security Bureau many years ago, he was very motivated.

At that time, he was still very young and at the disaster level, and he felt that he had a bright future.

But after spending a long time in the Security Bureau, he realized that the capital he was proud of was really not worth mentioning in a cosmic civilization like the Reborn Empire.

The Reborn Empire is so huge that there are countless Calamity-level beings like him.

Unless he could advance to the Overlord and become one of the strongest dozens of individual lives in the Reborn Empire, or make an unprecedented contribution, no matter how hard he worked, it would be difficult for him to create a qualitative gap with those colleagues who were slacking off.

In that case, why not take some time off?
“Fishing makes me happy!”

Julian was humming a little tune that had been very popular in the empire recently, but at this moment a slightly noisy communicator prompt interrupted his wonderful time of slacking off.

"Who has nothing to do to contact me at this time?"

Julian frowned and found that it was an unfamiliar number, but the note of this call was very interesting.

[Star Covenant Secretary-General Yin Zhu introduces me, I am Bai Fu, the founder of Dark Moon Tide]

Bai Fu?

The name sounds a little familiar.

As for Yin Zhu, there is no need to mention it. When the Empire was trying to fight for control of the rim world, it contacted Star Covenant privately many times. At that time, he was the special envoy leading the team, and the person responsible for receiving him on the Star Covenant side was Secretary-General Yin Zhu.

Julian didn't rush to answer the call, but first checked Bai Fu's information on the Internet.

"A Calamity-class warrior who has the potential to advance to Overlord. He has recently accepted Nylis's commission to operate in the territory of the Taimu civilization. Nylis...if I remember correctly, he has cooperated with the Supernova Corps, right?"

Julian was lost in thought, and a few seconds later, he answered Bai Fu's call.

"Mr. Julian, I have some special information here that I think you might be very interested in."

Interested?

You say that with real confidence.

Julian didn't even stand up. He said lazily, "What intelligence?"

Bai Fu smiled and said, "I know where the Ten Saints Society's foothold is in the fringe world. If you're lucky, you might be able to stop the saints of the Ten Saints Society there."

"The location of the Ten Saints? That's it... Wait, you just said the Ten Saints, right?"

Julian's eyes widened.

The Ten Saints Meeting.

Damn it.

It’s the Ten Saints Assembly!

He slammed the table and stood up suddenly.

Fishing?

What the hell is this fish!

Now on stage is the Empire's Rising Star, I Want to Improve So Much Version, Julian!
Julian sat down again and put on a smiling face.

Let’s talk, we’ll talk slowly, we can talk about anything!
