Every muscle on Li Yao's face was twitching violently. He kept the swear words in his mouth for a long time before he finally spat out, "I don't believe you at all. What the f * ck is going on?"
"Fellow Cultivator, please report your name, sect, and ID number immediately and accept our inspection!"
Li Yao's abnormal reaction made the eyes of the captain and all the soldiers of the Union Army turn sharp. The soldiers all pressed their chainswords, vibration sabers, and storm bolters. Some of them even triggered a translucent arc of light from the two pieces of magical equipment hanging on their ears, which covered their eyes like virtual sunglasses.
"Crackle, crackle!"
Crackle! Crackle! A series of data jumped out of the arc of light and poured down like a waterfall.
Li Yao sensed that a few mystic rays were scanning him maliciously.
The soldiers were scanning his appearance and preparing to compare it with the data in the database.
Of course, Li Yao would not land in his real appearance stupidly. If anything went wrong, there would be no room for negotiation. His current appearance had been slightly adjusted for a certain purpose. It was absolutely impossible to find it in the database.
Li Yao's attention was attracted by the arc of light in front of the soldiers. "Is this … the latest generation of Demon Beast Detector? What a cool design! "
"There is no matching information in the database. He is not a registered Cultivator of the Federation!"
As if they were facing a great enemy, the soldiers activated their crystal cells. Their sabers, spears, swords, and halberds emitted streams of light.
The captain was even more solemn. He drew his chainsword and almost stabbed Li Yao's face. "Stand where you are and hand over all the attack magical equipment on your body. Accept the full inspection of the Union Army. Any movement, including the adjustment of your spiritual energy and the release of your telepathic thoughts, will be regarded as an attack against the Union Army. Therefore, do not move at all!"
Looking at the black muzzles of more than ten guns, Li Yao raised his hands obediently. His computing power soared to the limit as he sorted out his chaotic thoughts.
According to the intelligence collected by the Blood Demon Sector, after he was teleported to the Flying Star Sector eleven years ago, the government of the Federation did not confirm his death for ten years.
This cemetery was still under construction. Judging from the progress of the construction, it should have started in the last one or two months, which was about the same as the construction period of the military base a few dozen kilometers away.
Why?
According to the message he left for Professor Mo Xuan and the Flying Star Cultivator Luoxingzi. They should know where he was going and wouldn't think that he was dead.
In just a few short months. What exactly happened that caused the Federation to confirm his death?
Li Yao smelled the scent of a scheme. A very, very strong scent of a scheme.
"Tell me, how did Vulture Li Yao die?"
Li Yao raised his hands high above his head and asked the captain of the Union Army coldly, "Why are you so sure that Vulture Li Yao is dead? What evidence do you have?"
"Don't move. Who are you exactly? Why don't you know anything about Li Yao's death? It's impossible that nobody in the entire Tian Yuan Realm doesn't know anything about it. Where are you from? What are you doing here? "
The captain of the Union Army sounded more and more desperate. His hand that was holding his chainsword was shaking. He gestured for the soldiers to surround Li Yao, but one of them was running to a cabin nearby.
Li Yao knew that the soldier was going to inform the Union Army in the military base to reinforce him.
Deafening noises echoed from the direction of the military base. Four crystal warships had already taken off. They were flying toward the Dark Desolate Domain to search for the 'demons that had infiltrated the Tian Yuan Realm'.
They would learn what happened in the cemetery very soon and come to suppress him.
Li Yao's eyes were sharper and sharper, too.
If the eyes of the soldiers were icicles, his eyes were iron rods that smashed all the icicles into pieces.
"Tell me!"
He enunciated each and every word, which contained a strong pressure. "How did Vulture Li Yao die? What evidence do you have that he is dead? "
"Don't move! Don't move! "
The soldiers of the Union Army who were guarding the cemetery were all suffocated by his overwhelming aura. But they did not forget their duty at all and shouted, their faces red.
Li Yao was slightly touched by their performance. After all, they were all dutiful soldiers of his compatriots. Li Yao could not treat them as real enemies.
After a brief hesitation, Li Yao retreated all his aura.
But Li Yao underestimated the fighting will of the Union Army.
"Open fire!"
The moment he retreated his spiritual pressure, the captain shouted. The captain roared. More than ten storm bolters were triggered at the same time, spurting out dazzling sparks!
"Damn it!"
Li Yao spat hard. His body suddenly turned into a streak of brightness and brushed past the hundreds of bullets of spiritual energy. He extended his index finger and tapped the forehead of every soldier softly, knocking them all out.
Li Yao glanced around. On the left side of the cemetery were several two-story buildings with a sign on the gate that read 'Martyr Li Yao Memorial Hall'.
Li Yao's eyes shined. He rushed into the building like a tornado.
The memorial hall was not finished yet. It was only a prototype. The exhibits on the first floor were all very familiar. They seemed to be the crystal processors and training facilities that he had used before.
"It feels weird to visit the memorial hall of one's own martyr."
Li Yao saw a mustard-seed combat suit that was riddled with holes. The introduction below read 'Martyr Li Yao's combat suit when he was training in college.'
Next to it were the kettles that he had used, the stools that he had sat on, and the tools that he had used in refining. At the center of the hall was the debris of a ragged Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit that he had tested, too.
Those things were not the focus of his search.
He glanced around and soon found some thin brochures from the wooden boxes in the corner.
They were the brochures of 'Martyr Li Yao Memorial Hall'. There was a picture of him when he was young and handsome on the cover more than ten years ago. It seemed to have been taken after the bidding of the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit, but he could not remember clearly.
Li Yao opened the brochure, only to discover that it read:
"Li Yao, a hero of the Special Federation of the Xing Yao Federation, born in Floating Spear City, an important town of training in the east, in 484 of the Federation calendar.
"Li Yao was born in a poor family, but he was ambitious since he was a child. He worked hard for the goal of marching into the Blood Demon Sector and flattening the Pantheon of Demons …"
"Huh?"
Li Yao scratched his hair and continued reading. All in all, there were all kinds of lofty ambitions, righteousness, loyalty, selflessness, and selflessness. There were also a lot of heroic words that he did not know who had made up for him. He was quite embarrassed.
Li Yao simply turned to the end of the brochure, only to see that it read:
"In 514 of the Federation calendar, Li Yao returned to the Tian Yuan Realm in a single-person starship after discovering his compatriots in the Flying Star Sector. Unfortunately, his single-person starship crashed in the depths of the Grand Desolate Plateau because of the space turbulence when he was teleporting to the Heaven's Origin Planet …"
"Something is not right!"
Li Yao read the brochure three times and pondered for a moment. "My single-person starship was teleported to the Blood Demon Sector successfully. It was impossible for it to leave any trace in the Tian Yuan Realm. How did it crash in the depths of the Grand Desolate Plateau?
"However, here comes the problem. According to the captain of the Union Army, my death was known by everybody in the Federation. Then, Ding Ling Dong, Professor Mo Xuan, and Luoxingzi, a Cultivator from the Flying Star Sector, and other insiders must've known about it. Why didn't they stand out and question it?"
Just then, the sound of stumbling footsteps came from the stairs.
A young, short-haired female soldier in her early twenties scrambled down. Her face was full of panic. It seemed that she was frightened by the gunshot just now.
Judging from the emblem that she was wearing, she should belong to the propaganda system of the Union Army. She was probably a worker or a docent in the memorial hall.
Li Yao narrowed his eyes. He had learned his lesson this time. Too lazy to waste any more time, he apologized in his heart. Then, brilliance flashed in his eyes, and a powerful telepathic thought rushed into the female docent's brain!
The female docent was just an ordinary person. Under the guidance of Li Yao, she soon confessed everything.
The female docent was just an ordinary soldier. Naturally, she did not know the details of the first contact between the Heaven's Origin Sector and the Flying Star Sector, nor did she know that Li Yao had been teleported to the Blood Demon Sector.
Half a year ago, the ordinary soldiers only knew that 'Vulture Li Yao' had gone missing in the periphery of the Tian Yuan Realm. His death had never been announced by the authorities.
However, more than two months ago, because the capital city was assaulted by the Blood Demon Sector and seriously damaged, the entire Federation was infuriated and decided to fight the Blood Demon Sector to the death.
Therefore, they pushed the frontline all the way from the Giant Blade Pass to the edge of the Dark Desolate Domain, where five enormous bases were established.
During the construction of the war bases, a lot of debris of a starship was discovered during the preliminary exploration. After repeated confirmations, it was confirmed to be the single starship that Li Yao had boarded.
Also, it was said that Li Yao's body parts were found inside the debris of the starship. That was how his death was confirmed.
Because the starship had been shattered, it was impossible to assemble his' body parts'. They could only be buried on the spot symbolically and build a memorial park for martyrs at the crash site.
This is too weird!
My starship crashed in the Hundred Desolation Mountain of the Blood Demon Sector. It couldn't have appeared in the depths of the Grand Desolate Plateau of the Heaven's Origin Sector uncannily. My 'body parts' are even more ridiculous!
However, the whole Federation was shocked by the incident. It was said that a grand memorial rally was held in the capital city a few days ago. Ding Ling Dong, Professor Mo Xuan, and Luoxingzi must've confirmed it!
Who was behind the curtain and orchestrated my 'death' and convinced Ding Ling Dong, Professor Mo Xuan, and the rest of them?
Whoever it was, the guy was truly a mastermind!
Right then, Li Yao sensed the quakes in the clouds.
The four crystal warships all turned around and flew toward the memorial park!
