594: Chapter 312: Lord Azure Dragon, Are You Interested in Dividing Up the Star Abyss Empire?
The wait was far shorter than Blackbeard had anticipated.
rely ten minutes later, a ssage popped up on the backend of the Black Hole Network, sent by soone identified only by a codena.
He took a careful look, his expression faltering, and with a sudden jerk, a beard hair was plucked out.
His eyes flickered, “…The Core Relics have been hollowed out, three feet into the ground, even the walls are gone…”
Although Lord Azure Dragon was only a suspect, Blackbeard was almost certain that the items had indeed fallen into Azure Dragon’s hands.
“Clever tactics…” Blackbeard sighed.
In reality, Azure Dragon could not be completely flawless.
Whether it was Gabriel’s death or the ownership of the Ascension Source Crystal, he would be among the suspects.
But he was only a suspect because his thods were strong enough, and he had appeared at the scene.
Nevertheless, Lord Reina was a higher suspect.
Because Azure Dragon had no motive, whereas Lord Reina’s motive was Duke Guya.
With mysterious origins, no one knew where Azure Dragon would go after this affair ca to an end,
Duke Bloodthorn would probably not be able to find him, but Gabriel’s death could not just be let go.
According to Blackbeard’s understanding of the Star Abyss Empire, Gabriel’s death would definitely be suppressed, but Duke Bloodthorn’s resentnt could not be.
It’s a futile effort, not to ntion the death of his son and a precious Space Ability Superpower User.
He will not sit back idly by.
Even just to cut his losses, he would be sure to pin Gabriel’s bla on Lord Reina, making Duke Guya bear his losses.
The plan deviated, but the final outco was similar,
“With that said, I can go see him now.” Blackbeard put away the smart terminal, and vanished without a trace.
anwhile, during the ti he waited for the ssage, the fleets gathered on the outer fringes to spectate had received a joint warning from the Judger Fleet and the United Fleet, demanding that they retreat quickly, or else they would be indiscriminately targeted as enemies.
“Damn it, I ca all the way here eager and excited, and all I got was a buzz, nothing gained.
This trip into the Red River Star Stream, I’ve bought millions of energy blocks, I’m at a huge loss.”
“Being able to watch a good show isn’t bad.
If those big shots really start fighting, we’d all get dragged in, dead without a place to be buried.”
“Haha… you guys just know how to watch the excitent, I took the opportunity to dismantle the engine of a warship wreck, and lots of parts, I’ve definitely made enough for the energy cost…”
“This incident is big enough, there’ll be plenty to talk about in the coming period, tsk, tsk… A Casting Star chanical Master is even rarer than a Level S life form…”
Despite the dissatisfaction, no one dared to linger and started dispersing gradually.
In the central area, Asmara and others had already boarded a new warship.
Upon entering the eting room, there was silence for five or six minutes, the atmosphere was somber.
Commanders filed in one after another, so appearing heavily injured, covered in dical gel, and found corners to sit.
Five or six more minutes passed, and when most of the people had arrived, those missing were most likely dead.
“I will take full responsibility for this incident, and it has nothing to do with any of you,” Asmara finally spoke, surveying the surroundings.
Many fleet commanders present were not Yitelan people and felt a pang of emotion upon hearing this.
This was no small ss, and whether the ambitious princess could continue to be active in interstellar affairs was in question.
The Yitelan commanders let out a sigh of relief.
After all, having soone higher up willing to take the bla was the best situation.
Prince Bai Jiang imdiately added, “I and the overall commander will jointly assu responsibility,”
Everyone looked surprised.
Bai Jiang was also helpless; the truth behind Gabriel’s death had made him and Asmara a community of interest.
He was even annoyed as to why Feder had inford him in the first place.
“Now, all we need to do is to regroup the fleet to assess the damage, search for the injured, and then leave this place…” The refined cheeks of Asmara were filled with exhaustion, yet she still persevered to issue the final orders, followed by a sowhat powerless wave of her hand.
Many commanders looked at each other and then gradually left amidst the sound of chairs and tables clashing.
Only Asmara, Prince Bai Jiang, Feder in the corner, and Wu Yanqing, who was still under confinent, remained in the room.
A mont later, the door opened, and Albert entered.
Subconsciously, everyone stood up, including Old Wu, who had no plans to court death.
“Lord Reina?” Asmara couldn’t help but ask.
“He has returned to the Judger Fleet, constantly claiming that Gabriel was not murdered by him,” Albert said, rubbing his forehead as he sat down, resignedly: “This matter cannot be resolved by re combat, I had no choice but to let him leave.”
“What are your thoughts about the Core Relics and Gabriel?”
He glanced at Wu Yanqing; the man’s status was still that of a prisoner, but even though Asmara hadn’t said anything, he was too lazy to bother.
Asmara’s expression held a subtle nuance, but she quickly replied: “I have a few thoughts, regarding the Core Relics, it’s indeed possible that so people have entered over the years, and there are many suspicions about how we managed to get in.”
“However, I’ve been pondering since just now about the real purpose of Azure Dragon’s involvent in this affair.”
She organized her thoughts, “Given the thods and strength he possesses, the only thing in the Core Relics that could attract him was the Ascension Source Crystal.”
“He might want to improve his own developnt potential.
After all, he is just a Level B life form and seems unwilling to undergo chanical augntation; his developnt potential is probably terribly low.”
“Only, what I can’t understand is, if he wanted to use the Ascension Source Crystal, he could have simply inford both parties.
With his status as a Casting Star chanic, any Duke would be willing to grant him this favor, there’s no need for him to go to such lengths.”
