Chapter 526: Chapter 277: Exposed! Take Action! Start Buying Up!

Turning around, a stretch of metal buildings appeared before his eyes; this was the temporary base of the Torch.

Connet came over to explain, "Everyone, the staff will take you to your rooms. Please rest assured, this place has not been activated for over a decade, it will not be exposed."

Watching everyone leave, Connet’s expression became solemn, he instructed Ted beside him, "Go prepare the sacrifices for Thunder, Blazing Flame, Destruction Spirit, Star Beast..."

Connet listed a series of names, and Ted was startled, he couldn’t help but ask, "Are we sacrificing so many this time?"

Connet did not answer; Ted quickly bowed his head, "I will prepare right away."

...

"Temporary base, for the sake of concealment, all warships have already landed. If one takes the lead and seizes a warship to escape first, it would indeed be difficult for the other warships to catch up."

In the room, Li Ming pondered that under these circumstances, the pressure to escape was significantly reduced, but there were still many detailed issues to be dealt with.

"Just investigate the situation a bit, pick a warship, and if there are no problems, then we can make a move." A ripple of excitement rose in Li Ming’s heart.

Over these ten days, his development progress had reached 53%, only a step away from 60%.

It could be said that compared to half a month ago when he and Theo confronted each other, his strength had improved quite significantly.

...

Two days later, in an office at the temporary base, Pier had already settled his personal belongings, sitting on a soft sofa, his eyes bloodshot, filled with red veins.

His hair looked messy, but it was not surprising given his disheveled state.

He had been working continuously for more than ten days without sleep, a considerable burden on the body for a C-Level Life Form.

Feeling a few palpitations, Pier took a deep breath, rubbed his sore eyes, and continued operating the intelligent system in front of him.

"Phew, I can’t let the leader down," he mused.

The screen displayed a stream of data, being filtered under the processing of a certain compilation system.

This was no longer the original encoding source code because Pier discovered there was something wrong with the Dimensional Gods’ original encoding source code given to him.

The equivalence value of the encoding source code was slightly different in some parts.

An encoding source code is like a codebook; the same vocabulary should correspond to the same value, but within the massive source code, there were a few values that were different.

He hadn’t noticed this initially but found out after several compilations of the data stream encountered errors upon close examination.

Even so, he didn’t take it seriously, as compared to the vast encoding source code, it was only a small part, at most it might compile wrong one or two sentences, overall it would not cause much issue.

He even suspected whether he remembered it wrong initially.

After spending a few more days, he modified and integrated these minor errors into this program, and during this period, he has been filtering through the massive data stream.

"Ah...why can’t I find the transfer data of the Sublimator that the leader spoke of, only the dialogues..." Pier scratched his head helplessly.

Having experienced Connet’s compassion last time, it had indeed shocked Pier significantly, and now Zog and his other colleagues were not subjected to any punishment, just turned into ordinary staff members.

Pier was greatly moved, and felt even guiltier, thus wanted to atone for his faults.

"They might be right as they speculated; for the massive data transmission, Connet probably used another method, otherwise, this compilation speed is too slow, some of the key terms can’t even be compiled," Pier muttered.

"Lord Des..."

From the player, a cold voice sounded again, Connet initially didn’t care much, but his expression soon changed.

Because this was a conversation he had never heard before.

"...Can you tell me, what exactly is going on inside the Torch Organization?"

"What date is the data?" He checked the data log, finding it was two days before Des disappeared.

"What does that mean?"

"...Boiling Blood Alloy, it’s all just model blocks..."

"...What makes you think deceiving me won’t cost you anything!?"

Pier suddenly stood up, the fatigue from not resting for many days vanished in that moment, then a chilling wave surged through him.

Connet was ambushed, he of course knew, all the materials used for the sacrifices were seized, he knew that too.

And it was Des who told Asima the news, the officially compiled audio proved this point.

But these two short sentences overturned all previous conjecture.

Asimara thought Des had colluded with the Torch Organization and deceived them, while Torch Organization thought Des and Asimara ambushed them together.

There was a problem in the middle!

Pier broke out in a cold sweat, shivering uncontrollably, how...how could this be.

These sentences had not appeared in the multiple data screenings before, the errors in compilation obscured these sentences.

And these crucial two sentences overturned everything!

"This...no, I need to tell the leader." Pier couldn’t hesitate anymore, he grabbed his smart terminal and was ready to leave, but stopped at the door, his expression uncertain: "No, how should I explain this."

He wavered again thinking about retreating, but remembering the leader’s attitude towards Zog and the others,

Pier clenched his teeth and finally opened the door.

...

"Leader, the entire United Fleet has already been assembled early..."

"Additionally, the Judger Civilization’s ’Judge’ is also waiting at the border of the Red River Star Stream..."

"Furthermore, a few A-Level Life Forms’ personal armed forces have been loitering near the Land of Stars..."

In the room, Connet was summarizing all the intelligence gathered during this period, with a large number of fleets gathered, quite a bit of friction had arisen.
