Three days passed.
In the Mystic Ice Sector, a half-desolate world in the first quadrant of the Imperium of True Human Beings …
The dim stars that had entered the decline phase were flowing with bluish brilliance feebly. The special elemental reactions resulted in weird radiations that suppressed spiritual waves, making the space zone as lifeless as an ocean that was frozen.
All the stars were like lone islands frozen in the middle of an ocean of ice. Even though a few starships pierced through the barrier of the three-dimensional space and appeared in the desolate land occasionally, the exhaust flames spurting out of the tails of the starships were absolutely still, like fish that were struggling in the gaps of the ice.
The transport ship "New Life No. 2" was one of the fish that was struggling on the brink of death.
Also, because of the gap in the fusion reactor of the third power unit, a rather large explosion took place in the engine room. The liquid crystal fuel that could have raised a chain reaction sprayed everywhere before it was vaporized and expanded, spreading out of the engine room. A series of exclamations and exclamations were raised. The entire rear half of the carrier was in a mess, and everybody was in a hurry.
Right when "New Year 2" reduced the output of the main power unit to the minimum, allowing the carrier to enter the deceleration cruise mode to repair the damaged reactor and clean up the leaked fuel, feeble ripples that were invisible to the naked eye popped up in the seemingly empty space in front of them on the sailing route ahead of them.
It was like a giant fish that was slowly surfacing from the deep ocean, waving its dorsal fins and opening its bloody mouth at the prey.
The spurting tubes of the working medium thrusters of the carrier were still emitting the chaotic aftermath of spiritual energy. They were still burning at a temperature of almost a thousand degrees.
The human-shaped ripple that was gradually becoming clearer had already swum in without a sound.
"Another tube."
Under the protection of the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit, Li Yao resisted the high temperature and searched for the most suitable part to invade the carrier, while he grunted deep inside his brain. "Another infiltration operation that is well-planned, flawless, and under control of every procedure. This can't be better. Hey, do you think we will run into any more accidents this time?"
"Even the greatest accident has already happened. Who could've foreseen that the ventilation tubes of the Godly Might Prison would be so spacious and that thousands of guards would be stuffed into them? How bad can it be?"
The mental devil said, "In the past three days, we have conducted 324 simulations. The success rate of the last hundred simulations has reached 96%. That's quite impressive!"
"It does make sense. The range, speed, and frequency of every sentry and every surveillance camera have been observed clearly by us. All the unexpected situations have been taken into consideration. I don't think that we will be so unlucky as to encounter another unexpected accident, will we?"
Li Yao mumbled to himself as he carefully groped the inner wall of the flame spurting tube. Suddenly, his eyes glittered. "This is it!
Four hours later, when the carrier "New Life 2" finally repaired the fault of the power unit and accelerated again, Li Yao had already disguised himself into a completely different appearance. He was hiding in a frozen hibernation cabin together with hundreds of other ferocious felons.
His brows were raised high, his lips were missing half a piece, and his jagged teeth were exposed. He had the appearance of a typical rebellious, impulsive, and easily angered criminal.
He was wearing an orange-yellow prison uniform, which was covered with special metal patches. There were two energy boxes in front of his chest and behind his back, which ensured that he could release super-strong electric arcs that were comparable to lightning into the prison uniform. No matter how strong the prisoner was, he would be instantly paralyzed or even turned into a charred corpse.
His identity information and identification information were on his wrists and ankles respectively, indicating that this was a dangerous person who had committed hundreds of serial murders and used bloody killings to cultivate because his brain was affected by Qigong Deviation during cultivation, which caused his personality to become distorted and inhumane.
Everything was sealed in the low temperature of almost a hundred degrees below zero.
On the surveillance crystal processor next to the hibernation cabin, it could be clearly seen that Li Yao's biophysical parameters were close to zero. Even his cell reactions were close to freezing. He was no different from being dead.
Inside the gloomy, cold warehouse, the hundreds of prisoners were the same. They were like ice sculptures that had hibernated for hundreds of years.
But nobody knew that, under Li Yao's appearance that was close to death, deep inside his brain, his seething soul was waiting to erupt like an impatient volcano. Every mitochondria inside his every cell was like a spring that had been compressed to the minimum, ready to spring out brutally at any moment.
Nobody knew that Li Yao, who seemed to be bare-handed, had hidden more than ten Cosmos Rings inside his body through secret techniques.
The metal reactions of all the Cosmos Rings had been blocked by his constricted internal organs, blocking the scanning of any magical equipment.
Once the weapons and ammunition inside the Cosmos Rings were retrieved, they would be enough to raise a small-scale war in the Godly Might Prison!
After another two hours of sailing, the carrier "New Life 2" slowly cut into the thin atmosphere of the sixth planet of the Mystic Ice Sector and dived into the frigid hell that was filled with icy fog.
The temperature here was so low that even the high-speed friction between the starship and the atmosphere barely raised any flames. There were only a few sparse streaks of brightness that were soon swallowed by the icy fog.
All the continents were covered in frost, ice, fog, and rocks. Most of the places were barren lands where even bacteria could not be found. It was a standard uninhabited area.
Only the annular zone near the equator was the only paradise for all the lives on the planet.
Even though it was called the 'equator', it did not look sunny or vigorous at all. Like the north and south poles of other planets, it was still ruled by ice and snow. Only the mottled moss and fungus carpet barely kept the label of a 'habitable planet'.
However, other than the natives of the place — the highly-resistant moss and fungi — a lot of other things were moving on the ice field.
They were the special spiritual puppets for polar battles made of cold-resistant materials. They were slaughter machines known as "snow monsters".
In a normal environment, they would be the targets of the strong Cultivators. But in such a place where the temperature was a hundred degrees below zero, where gloomy winds were blowing, and where freezing ice was blowing, hundreds of "snow monsters" would swarm at the same time. Any Cultivator or Immortal Cultivator would feel that their blood was freezing and their pants were freezing.
The "snow monsters" deployed in this place, on the other hand, were not as simple as "hundreds of them" …
Other than the "snow monsters", dense bunkers and automatic firing points were also everywhere on the ground, which could turn the entire ice field into an ocean of fire at any moment.
That was not counting the Godly Might Fleet cruising between the atmosphere and the orbit. Even though the descendants of the four Kurfürst families considered the Godly Might Prison as a "banishment", the four families certainly spared no expense when it came to the equipment of their starships.
At least four main-force warships had reached the most advanced standards of the Imperium. The main cannons that could instantly reduce the temperature of hundreds of square meters to absolute zero were enough to discourage any sane person from thinking about confronting them head-on in such an extreme environment.
Li Yao's head was rather normal.
Therefore, he was absolutely unwilling to play a lone hero and compete with hundreds of thousands of "snow monsters" war puppets, tens of thousands of underground bunkers that were under crossfire, and hundreds of crystal warships in such a wretched place.
He could only hope that, if Queen Li Linghai was truly an audacious careerist, her planning and organizational abilities had better be worthy of her ambitions. She had to show up on time to deal a destructive blow to the Godly Might Fleet before she carried out a carpet bombing on the surface of the planet.
A neat gap suddenly appeared on the ground that was covered in frost. From the bottomless well, hundreds of complicated mystic rays darted out and interweaved in midair, outlining a virtual sailing route.
"New Birth 2" turned off the longitudinal thrusters and adjusted the output of the anti-gravity rune arrays. Slowly descending, it entered the underground port of the Godly Might Prison.
If everything went well, Li Yao still had one hour, fifty-eight minutes, and thirty-three seconds to avoid the scanning of countless guards and surveillance cameras, cross half of the Godly Might Prison, find and protect General Lei Chenghu.
In one hour, fifty-eight minutes, and thirty-three seconds, Li Linghai's Deep Sea Fleet would appear above the Godly Might Prison and fire the first shot that would shock the entire Imperium!
…
At the same time that Li Yao snuck into the Godly Might Prison as an "ice corpse", deep inside the Godly Might Prison, "God of War" Lei Chenghu welcomed the first living "guest" after more than half a month of house arrest.
The identity of the guest was greatly beyond Lei Chenghu's expectations.
Even his face that had always been cold and solemn like ice that had never melted before showed obvious astonishment for a moment.
The guest had a face that was very similar to his except that he was a hundred years younger.
Of course, the ambition, desire, frivolity, and impatience that were written all over the young face were things that Lei Chenghu could not see at all on his wrinkled face.
"Honghai, how did you find this place?"
Frowning at his eldest son Lei Honghai, Lei Chenghu did not have the slightest delight of seeing his flesh and blood in his eyes at all. Instead, they were full of confusion and wariness. Pondering for a moment, his eyes became even colder. "Did the 'special investigation committee' ask you to persuade me? Did you abandon the Thunder Fleet and join the 'special investigation committee'?"
"Father, it's true that I'm cooperating with the 'special investigation committee', but I have absolutely no intention of abandoning the Thunder Fleet. On the contrary, the Thunder Fleet and the Lei family are both in peril and may be obliterated in the blink of an eye. It will also cause an immeasurable blow to the entire Imperium. It is for the future of the Thunder Fleet and the Lei family that I've come here to persuade you, Father."
