Chapter 1514 - 1175: Two Emperors

The Emperor beamed with joy. Although he hadn’t personally controlled Henki, ever since Henki began its research, there had been remarkable progress almost daily. With this momentum, he believed mass production of the new type of energy alloy was not far from reality.

At this time, the Emperor of a certain planet, who was also a Worm, suddenly sent envoys here, claiming they wanted to carry out a military exchange. Anyone with common sense understood that initiating military exchanges without any prior signs at this point could only mean they had heard about the new type of energy alloy and automatic magic. With planets being so vast, it was impossible to guard against spies. After all, even the Worms couldn’t control every individual on the planet.

However, the Emperor never intended to keep this a secret. The presence of military power was meant to be shown off!

The time left for Long Yi was not much, just a mere half-month, but that was sufficient. In fact, if Long Yi wanted, he didn’t even need half an hour. Yet, to emphasize the difficulty of the task, half a month was the minimum.

In that half-month, Long Yi improved fifteen sets of armor for the Emperor.

One set per day, this speed was far beyond the Emperor’s expectations, who had thought that ten sets would have been good enough.

Meanwhile, in another team, Elsa’s research was progressing smoothly. There wasn’t much progress, but it was enough to provide some basic automatic attack actions for demonstration, and naturally, the Emperor also requested that these automatic spells be equipped on the fifteen warriors who were about to be deployed.

However, the Emperor carefully pondered whether Henki and Aisa should join the troops on their expedition. Their knowledge was extremely valuable and should logically be protected. Besides their expertise, their own combat capabilities were also extremely strong. If they were to join the expedition, their chances of success would naturally be greater. But what if his kind wanted to kill Long Yi at all costs?

Just then, Long Yi and Elsa took the initiative to approach the Emperor. They expressed their wish to accompany the team on the basis that they could observe the adaptation of the warriors to the new equipment and make adjustments for future research.

After a thoughtful consideration, the Emperor agreed to Long Yi and Elsa’s request. He believed that with their capabilities, even if someone wanted to harm them, it would not be so easy.

The main reason Long Yi volunteered to go to that planet was that the Crystal Demon Empress Belle was lurking there, and Long Yi wanted to gather some information from her.

Thus, led by the Emperor’s flagship, an enormous fleet of a hundred warships grandly set off into the depths of space, ripping through it and appearing on the outskirts of a planet of The Forgotten.

There, an equally large fleet was already waiting.

On the Emperor’s flagship, a large screen displayed another Emperor’s figure. Compared to the nearly pure gold-colored Emperor, the Emperor on the screen was resplendent in silver. This high-gloss polished image studded with gemstones was in no way inferior to the present Emperor, except in color.

Therefore, Long Yi decided to call him the Silver Emperor and named his home’s Emperor as the Golden Emperor—since he didn’t actually know their real names.

"How have you been, my old friend!" said the Silver Emperor.

"And you too, how have you been, my old friend!" said the Golden Emperor beside Long Yi.

From the tone of their conversation, it was evident that the relationship between the two was quite ordinary. In Long Yi’s view, they were just short of saying: ’How come you haven’t died yet?’

The two Emperors exchanged pleasantries on a grand scale, and then the fleet moved through in formation, with all ships other than the flagship docking at the perimeter of the planet, which was old practice.

Long Yi and Elsa, along with the warriors who had just donned the new type of armor, stayed within the flagship. When the hatch opened, the Imperial Guard led the way, with the Emperor closely following, then Long Yi and Elsa followed right behind the Emperor. Behind them came the warriors in the new type of armor.

In front of the spaceship, the Emperor of the other planet and his welcoming party were already waiting. They showed no interest in the Imperial Guard or the Emperor himself; what truly interested them was the new type of armor.

The color was distinctly different, and the aura it exuded was significantly different as well. Most fascinating was that their steps were absolutely uniform, without any deviation.

"Automatic magic," murmured the Silver Emperor with a faint red glow in his eyes, narrowing slightly. Automatic magic was indeed something he coveted, and he hadn’t expected it to appear here.

"Hahaha! My old friend, it truly has been a long time! Such ceremonial welcomes could have easily been assigned to any minister! It bothers me that you personally came out to meet me, making me feel quite embarrassed!" laughed the Golden Emperor exuberantly as he approached.

"What are you talking about! The friendship between us cannot be compared to anyone else!" the Silver Emperor also laughed heartily.

Whether they themselves could gauge the nature of this conversation, in Long Yi’s ears, their dialogue was utterly insincere.
