Immortal Soul of Steel

Chapter 2286 (5K) Knowing there is a tiger in the mountain, we still go there
Facing Ace Getz's questioning, Lin Youde did not hide anything and admitted it openly.

"Yes, we were the ones who destroyed your original body, the First Fleet led by Hazar Gezi."

"But the Second Fleet has nothing to do with us. When we entered the star gate, they had been wiped out by space monsters."

"Considering that they came here to attack us, it doesn't matter if they put the blame on us. After all, more debts are better than less."

When Ace Gutz heard this, his face became gloomy and uncertain, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Instead of this, Lin Youde, you might as well ask them where the good stuff they caught before is."

"I just searched their fleet, but I couldn't find the thing."

Mekipos's words made Lin Youde look at him in surprise.

"Good stuff? What is that?"

Mekipos took out a mobile phone-like device he carried with him, pressed a few buttons on it, and a virtual projection appeared.

On this projection, there appeared a strange machine that was entirely black and white, with some red embellishments and a green beacon on its head.

When Lin Youde saw this machine, a word popped up in his mind: "King Jedda (King Jedda)! ? "

Wang Kai on the side directly said the name: "King Jedda!? Could it be that J was captured by you!?"

Lu Ni beside Wang Kai grabbed Ace Guz's collar excitedly and asked, "Where did you take J?!"

Seeing that Luni was anxious, Ace Goz smiled calmly and said, "Is the man from the triple solar system your companion? Unfortunately, you are a step too late. He was taken back to the empire by the high priest's people, who said they wanted to study his body carefully."

Hearing this, Lu Ni became even more anxious. Fortunately, Wang Kai still had his senses. He held his sister down and looked at Lin Youde. After Lin Youde made a reassuring gesture, he asked calmly.

"You didn't kill J outright?"

Ace Gertz asked back: "What if I say he has been killed by us? What will you do? Kill me directly?"

When Lu Ni heard this, her eyes turned red with anger and she wanted to hit someone, but was stopped by Wang Kai.

Lin Youde looked at Ace Gutz with disdain: "If J is dead, then I will only look down on the wisdom of you Baruma Empire people."

"As far as I know, J is the only native of the Triple Solar System left."

"The wisdom in J's mind is far beyond the reach of a King Jedda."

"If you really get a King Jedda and think you have the entire legacy of the Triple Solar System, you will summarily execute J."

"You guys don't understand this. Let me put it bluntly. If you really lose the big picture for the small, then I will only look down on you even more."

"You are a race without any foresight. It is better for you to kill yourself as soon as possible so that I don't have to do it."

Ace Gutz, who had originally had a calm expression, suddenly became gloomy after hearing Lin Youde's words.

"How dare you insult our empire!?"

Lin Youde snorted coldly: "Is there anything that I, Lin Youde, dare not do? It seems that you still don't know me well enough."

After laughing twice, Lin Youde asked, "So, is J dead?"

Ace Guz snorted in dissatisfaction: "No, the high priest said that guy has a lot of things in his mind that she wants, so she ordered him to be taken back as well."

After learning that J was not dead, the excited Luni calmed down.

Lin Youde sneered: "Not bad, at least there are still people with clear minds in your empire. It seems that the high priest is still a smart person."

After a moment of silence, Ace Gertz asked abruptly, "Are you going to rescue people?"

Lin Youde did not answer, but looked at him strangely, then looked at his clothes. Then he quickly lifted his hood and found something the size of a sesame seed behind his ear.

When Ace Guz saw Lin Youde's reaction, he was slightly panicked, but his expression quickly calmed down.

But Lin Youde noticed Ace Gutz's reaction and asked curiously, "What is this!?"

Ace Gutz didn't answer, but a mature female voice came from this sesame-sized thing.

"Haha, it's just a bone conduction headset, just a small thing. Why, don't you have it in your Barrier Solar System?"

Hearing this voice, Lin Youde immediately understood that Ace Gutz's abrupt reaction just now was instigated by this voice.

Obviously, Ace Goetz was not the one in charge right now. The real one was the female voice coming from the miniature bone conduction headset.

"Of course we have bone conduction headphones, but they are not this small, and they are not wireless."

"Besides, if I'm not mistaken, this thing of yours is a rare item that can be used across long distances and ignore communication interference, right?"

"You...are the high priest of the Baruma Empire that this guy just mentioned?"

A woman's laughter was heard in the headphones.

"Hehe, as expected, he is the strongest and smartest man in the Barrier Solar System. He is indeed extraordinary."

"Yes, I am the high priest of the Baruma Empire. My name is Ezra Tora."

"This bone conduction headset is a rare item I made. It contains space conduction magic that allows for direct communication across space, thus ignoring the communication interference of conventional technology."

"Why, are you interested in the technology I master?"

Lin Youde narrowed his eyes slightly. "I am indeed interested. The technology you master is a combination of technology and magic. Although I have also begun to study the combination of magic and technology, I have just started."

"Our Blue Water Planet has a very short history of development. We can't compare with old people like you."

"If you are willing to hand it over obediently, I can let you come here to work as a scientific researcher."

Ezra Tora continued to laugh: "Haha, you are so arrogant. Facing our Baruma Empire, you don't seem to be afraid at all. You are really brave and powerful. No wonder you can defeat our First Fleet and Fourth Fleet successively."

"But, Lin Youde, the first fleet we sent out was originally intended to test your fortress solar system, and its forces were quite weak."

"I also took away more than half of the Fourth Fleet's troops. It is not at full strength at all."

"If you become complacent after defeating the First Fleet and now the Fourth Fleet, you will end up in disaster."

Lin Youde replied calmly: "I have never been proud or complacent. On the contrary, I have always been very humble. I love to tell the truth and I always seek truth from facts."

"Your strength is not enough to make me in awe. To be honest, I have never taken your Baruma Empire seriously."

"Ezra Tora, if you return J to us now and serve me obediently, I can let you go."

"Otherwise, I will destroy you along with the Baruma Empire."

After a moment of silence, Ezra Tora asked, "What is your confidence?"

"With only four warships and a dozen mobile weapons, do you really think you can destroy the Baruma Empire?"

"The power of the Baruma Empire is far beyond your imagination."

Lin Youde chuckled twice: "I will return these words to you intact."

"Do you really think I can't destroy the Baruma Empire!?"

"No, you are wrong. I am much more powerful than you can imagine."

"I might as well tell you that we came out of the barrier this time to head for your Baruma Empire."

"We have only one goal, to destroy your Baruma Empire."

"You have come to provoke me again and again. It is time to settle accounts with you."

Ezra Tora's tone was full of surprise and disbelief: "Are you really going to challenge the Baruma Empire with four warships and a dozen mobile weapons? Are you crazy? Or am I crazy?"

Lin Youde replied: "We have an old saying here, which goes, the bolder the people, the more productive the land."

"Ezra Tora, your vision has imprisoned your imagination."

"My ultimate goal has never been your Baruma Empire. On the contrary, if you don't come to provoke me again and again, I won't bother to care about you."

"Our preparations have always been aimed at the space monsters. The Baruma Empire? Just a clown."

When Lin Youde said this, the people on Londebell's side did not react. After all, they did whatever Lin Youde said, and it has always been like this.

But Ais Gertz was stimulated and looked at Lin Youde in disbelief: "What!? You want to go to war with space monsters!?"

Ezra Tora was also shocked, and his tone was a little horrified: "Did I hear it right? Lin Youde, you want to go to war with the space monster!? That's a natural disaster moving in the universe, are you sure you want to go to war with that kind of natural disaster!?"

Lin Youde was quite calm: "It's not that we want to go to war with the space monsters, but that the space monsters insist on going to war with us."

"Since we cannot avoid it, we should actively prepare for war and fight until the space monsters no longer exist. The duration of this war is not decided by us, but by our enemies. We will fight as long as the enemy wants. We will fight until the enemy dares not to fight again and until we win completely. This is my life creed."

"Ezra Tora, I'm going to ask you one last time, do you want to come to our side? Otherwise, when I reach the capital of the Baruma Empire, you won't have the chance to surrender."

There was silence in the headset for a long time before the voice came back: "Lin Youde, I have to admit that you are a very charming and courageous man. Even I am shocked by your courage and vision."

"But there are many braggarts in this world. How do I know if you like braggarts?"

Ace Guz looked at the bone conduction headset in Lin Youde's hand in astonishment: "High Priest, are you going to surrender to the enemy!?"

Lin Youde asked back: "Oh? Do you want me to prove my strength?"

Ezra Tola: "Don't say such harsh words. What do you mean by surrendering to the enemy? I have no intention of doing so."

"It's just that someone made a boast in front of me, so of course I want to verify it."

"After all, it's a bit frustrating to be hiding in the barrier of Steel Eden all the time."

"So, Lin Youde, come on. Come to the capital of the Baruma Empire."

"I will pass your message to the supreme leader of the Baruma Empire, Emperor Ling."

"If you can defeat Emperor Ling, then I see that you do have the strength to fulfill your previous lofty ambitions, and I can certainly choose to join you."

"But if you don't have this strength, then I will use your head to continue to surrender to Emperor Ling."

"Well, you won't object?"

Before Lin Youde answered, Angela, who had been staying behind Lin Youde, complained: "A woman who sits on the fence."

Ezra Tora replied: "Haha, this is called the wisdom of survival."

Lin Youde also chuckled twice: "Okay, then send me the coordinates of the Baruma Empire. I don't know the way. If you give me the coordinates, I can naturally get there at the fastest speed and show you my strength."

Ezra Tora: "No problem, Ace Goz, you know the location of the small mobile star gate I reserved earlier. Tell Lin Youde the location. I will adjust the coordinates and let the mobile star gate directly set the destination to our capital."

Upon hearing this, Ace Gutz struggled for a moment but did not respond.

Ezra Tora asked, "Why, do you think Lingdi will lose?"

Being asked this question, Ace Guz was motivated to reply, "No, Lord Lingdi will certainly not lose. I understand. I will lead the way."

Ezra Tora responded, "Very good, let's leave it at that. Lin Youde, I will wait for you in the capital of the Baruma Empire."

"On your way forward, your second fleet should be waiting for you."

"Your second fleet is holding a concert right now. There are many visitors and merchants from star civilizations gathered there. You can replenish supplies at your own fleet and then come over through the star gate."

"If you're afraid you can't win, you can choose not to come. It's up to you whether to come or not."

"Personally, I'm looking forward to your coming."

With that, Ezra Tora ended the communication.

Lin Youde looked at the silent Ace Gutz and said to Li Te: "Li Te, take him to the bridge and let him lead the way."

Li Te looked at Lin Youde with some entanglement: "Son-in-law, no matter how you look at it, this is a trap, right?"

Nan Ye also said: "Yes, the other party agreed so readily. It must be a trap no matter how you think about it."

Lin Youde replied: "Of course I knew it was a trap. After all, I never intended to trust this woman from the beginning."

"But at the same time, even if it's a trap, we have to go."

"This has been a game of chicken from the beginning. Whoever chickens out first will lose momentum."

"And didn't you hear her say that the Second Fleet is on the road we have to take to reach that small star gate? And the Second Fleet is holding a concert right now. If she spreads what we just discussed, it will have a great impact on our reputation if we don't go."

"On the contrary, if we go and win, then the reputation of our unity will spread rapidly among all civilizations in the universe."

"This is a great opportunity to make a name for myself. I have to go. As for the trap..."

Lin Youde looked at Liu Longma who was eager to try, Kang Dingbang who was calm and composed, and Wang Kai who was full of motivation, and asked with a smile.

"Are you afraid?"

Liu Longma clenched his fist with one hand, looking excited: "What's there to be afraid of? I just didn't have enough fights. I will go wherever there is a fight, even if it's a trap. Anyway, you're here to back me up, so there's nothing to be afraid of! Hayato, Benkei, are you afraid?"

Shen Hayato rolled his eyes: "You've already said all the good and bad things, what else can we say? Just do it."

Che Benkei also rolled up his sleeves: "I am driving the Real Getaron in place of Musashi-senpai. If I get scared, I won't be able to face Musashi-senpai when I go back. Besides, this is a good opportunity to show off. As long as we perform bravely enough in this battle, I, Che Benkei, will be the third pilot of the Real Getaron. Hahaha, I want to see what expression Musashi-senpai will have when he sees me taking his place!"

Kang Dingbang folded his arms, with a confident smile on his face: "To be honest, since the Great Demon God was upgraded to Demon Emperor G, I haven't met a decent opponent except for the God of Demons GOD and Demon God ZERO. The only Overlord King who could fight for a few moves was intercepted by you before I could even have a good fight."

"So, I really hope that I can meet a decent opponent this time. One that can allow me to have a good fight with Demon Emperor G."

Wang Kai put his hands on his sister Luni's shoulders and said in high spirits: "J is in the hands of the Baruma Empire. Knowing this, we have to go there even if it is a dangerous place! J is our partner, we can't just watch our partner being captured by the enemy and do nothing."

"And recently I have learned a lot about your achievements in the magic world. With you here, what do we have to fear? If we retreat blindly, we will lose our courage and will not be recognized by GGGG!"

"It just so happens that I also need a decent battle as a rehabilitation exercise. So, go ahead. As long as you can protect four warships, leave the rest to us!"

Lin Youde spread his hands and said, "┓(`)┏, look, the brothers all say so, what do you think?"

Li Te and Nan Ye looked at each other, with some helplessness in their eyes.

Saralin Youde said jokingly, "It's okay. If it doesn't work, I can use the Flame Dragon to teleport everyone away. Although it's a bit slow to teleport one by one, as long as Youde can protect everyone, there will be no danger. So, don't worry."

Sarah's two followers also nodded in agreement: "Yes, our machines can also teleport. It's just that the distance is a bit shorter. But in case of crisis, we can unite and teleport to the top, which is no problem!"
