Chapter 335: The Large Battleship is in Hand
Dr. Qi Li was momentarily stunned, trying hard to calm himself and think carefully.
Since the other party was a strong member of a dominant race disguised as a human, they surely wouldn’t kill him just to save some money.
The only reason for concern would be to kill him to keep secrets.
Only by eliminating him could they ensure that the modified Large Battleship’s specifications would not leak.
Unless there were more Large Battleships for him to modify in the future, killing him was the best way to handle it.
“After I help you modify the Space Vessel, can you erase all related memories?”
Dr. Qi Li looked up at Yi Chen, excitement flickering in his eyes.
“It seems you finally figured it out!”
Yi Chen said with appreciation in his eyes.
Fortunately, this top-notch expert, who was so focused on money, wasn’t lacking in intelligence.
He continued, “I don’t have the time to waste on you. You need to get a batch of equipment and find a way to erase the memories!”
“I’m willing to cooperate.”
Dr. Qi Li no longer hesitated.
If he could erase the memories, there would be no need to kill anyone.
On the contrary, having had a pleasant collaboration, the possibility of future cooperation made the chance of killing him to save a little money very low.
Yi Chen’s divine consciousness enveloped Dr. Qi Li.
With a thought, he took him back to the villa.
Yi Chen asked, “To modify a Large Battleship, as long as the Defense Systems, Space Jump System, and the Federation Military won’t receive alerts when leaving the galaxy are secured, how long will it take?”
“If all the relevant equipment and parts are available, five months!”
Dr. Qi Li replied without a moment’s hesitation.
“Alright, wait for my notification; I should find you in a few days.”
Yi Chen instantly vanished, returning to Lin Yuehai’s office.
“I’ll first go get a Large Battleship. Once it’s sorted, you’re responsible for contacting Dr. Qi Li.”
After giving the instruction, Yi Chen used the Teleportation Technique, appearing instantly outside the planet’s atmosphere.
With another teleport, he evaded the monitoring of the Ground Defense Systems.
Then he took out the mini Space Vessel, setting the coordinates and activating the smart controls.
He also retrieved a batch of Low-grade Immortal Stones, practicing while drawing fortune from the laws of heaven.
…
After more than ten hours, he reached the vicinity of the destination.
This was an area at the center of the galaxy.
Yi Chen glanced at the star chart and confirmed the location before switching to a flying treasure that could block scanner detection to continue his journey.
In less than half an hour, he arrived at his destination.
It was a massive meteor floating in space, with a volume exceeding thirteen billion cubic kilometers.
The central part had been completely hollowed out.
Inside was the base of the Conscription Army.
The Conscription Army was one of the larger rebellious forces in the galaxy.
However, they were merely a standout among short stature.
The rebels of the human federation were hardly significant compared to the rebellious forces of other races.
Although the Conscription Army was considered one of the larger-scale rebel groups in the galaxy, its numbers only exceeded ten million, controlling a Large Battleship and hundreds of various medium and small battleships.
At their peak, they had successfully occupied a life planet.
But they couldn’t hold it for more than two days before being defeated by the Federation Military.
Usually, they could only raid some transport ships and passenger vessels, akin to a super-large group of Space Pirates.
The only difference was that the Space Pirates merely sought wealth.
Meanwhile, the rebels needed to wave various anti-human federation flags.
Their main business involved attacking, occupying, and destroying military bases or life planets, then receiving hidden support from various tribes.
Some large Space Pirate groups would recruit personnel on a large scale under the pretext of establishing an imperial nation or overthrowing the corrupt Federal Parliament, transforming into rebel armies.
Others, failing to survive amidst increasing pressure from the Federation Military, would choose to become Space Pirates instead, reducing their burden.
Looking through the history of the human federation, the most significant rebel army formed recently was the Revival Army, which emerged seventy years ago.
The Revival Army managed to gain size because the human federation faced a great defeat and was at its lowest point, with Yi Tenglóng holding military power and a strong influence within the Military.
At their peak, three of the fourteen military districts of the human federation were under the control of the Revival Army.
But this was merely a facade of prosperity and inflation, which lasted only a year or two before collapsing under various tactics from the Federal Parliament.
To trace back beyond the Revival Army, one had to look several hundred years ago.
With a thought, Yi Chen directly took the entire flying treasure and instantly entered the base’s interior.
Inside this gigantic meteor, it was like a hidden chamber of wonders.
It resembled a complete military base.
Yi Chen’s divine consciousness expanded continuously, quickly locating the docking station for battleships and the location of the Conscription Army’s commander.
This commander of the Conscription Army was tall and imposing.
At that moment, he was cultivating in a hidden chamber.
His talent seemed outstanding.
He had already broken through to the third level of the Heart Tribulation Stage.
Unfortunately, misfortune loomed large.
If a strong person skilled in observing fortunes were to check Lin Yuehai’s luck, they would find that it had turned as dark as could be.
Yi Chen’s divine consciousness controlled a vase in the room.
Boom!
The vase struck with lightning speed, smashing the commander of the Conscription Army’s head before he even realized what was happening.
In this world, besides Yi Chen, no one would know why, despite the energy shield surrounding the room, someone could assassinate this commander of the Conscription Army.
No one knew that the reason for his assassination was that an elite had been sent to infiltrate the ranks of fake heavy criminals, tasked with entering the exile planet to find a way to control Yi Chen.
Yi Chen’s divine consciousness began to sweep through the interiors of the space battleships docked at the platform.
After confirming that those battleships were empty, he approached with his flying treasure.
Then, he stored all those uncrewed ships into his storage ring.
In the blink of an eye, not only the solitary Large Battleship but also more than twenty medium and small battleships were quickly gathered by Yi Chen.
Although the Space Jump System of these medium and small battleships was not as powerful as that of the Large Battleship, it was quite effective for use within the galaxy.
In less than a minute, he easily acquired a Large Battleship and over twenty medium and small ones.
Yi Chen suddenly felt that being an interstellar thief was the true way to riches.
He didn’t even bother with the resources and treasures stored by the Conscription Army; otherwise, he could have easily walked away with it all.
Of course, that thought was just a thought.
Whether as Space Pirates or interstellar thieves, they were merely side jobs.
His main pursuit was to conquer the stars.
Beep beep beep…
More than twenty space battleships, including the only Large Battleship that had been gathering dust in the base and was of little use, disappeared into thin air, and the monitoring personnel quickly detected this strange occurrence, sounding the alarm.
In the room, the commander’s communicator kept ringing.
But with his head smashed by the vase, the commander of the Conscription Army could not hear the incessant sounds of the communicator.
At the same time, Yi Chen had already left the meteor and returned to the A61258 planet.
Upon returning to A61258, he handed the Space Stone containing the Large Battleship and medium and small battleships to Lin Yuehai, and then Yi Chen ventured into outer space.
He focused on his cultivation while extracting fortune from the laws of heaven.
