Chapter 135 The Fireworks Envoy Arrives

After entering the laboratory, Li Ming took him to visit various places. There were no secrets anyway.

Arriving at the large office on the second floor, Li Ming asked him to sit down, and Ford said, "Two days ago, I went to pay my respects to Fu Zongchen."

"oh."

"To be honest, I really don't like him. He's always trying to curry favor with the powerful." Ford said solemnly, "I heard when I got here that there seemed to be some misunderstandings between him, Professor Wu, and you."

"My father and I don't want this misunderstanding to spread too far. I came here today to explain it in person." He said sincerely, "What Fu Zongchen did was definitely not instructed by my father."

Tsk… Prince Baijan has changed his mind? He wants to win me over? Is he sincere?

Li Ming looked at Ford's sincere face, which seemed to be lacking in sincerity.

"What do you mean by instructions or not?" Li Ming waved his hand immediately: "Of course I believe in His Royal Highness."

Upon hearing this, Ford's face turned serious. "Alas, I know you have concerns and you are not telling the truth... Actually..."

Just when Ford was halfway through his speech, a prompt sounded in the room, someone came, and a window popped up on the virtual screen.

There was a person standing at the door of the laboratory downstairs, Chen Yan.

What is she doing here? Li Ming muttered in his heart, and Ford's expression became restrained.

Li Ming asked the intelligent system to open the door. After waiting for a while, Chen Yan pushed the people in the office away and looked at Ford, seeming a little surprised.

However, Li Ming's eyes suddenly became more serious when she pushed open the office door. "What are you doing here?"

"I'm here for an important matter." Chen Yan spoke quickly.

"What's the important matter?" Li Ming frowned.

"This..." Chen Yan glanced at Ford, hesitant to speak.

Ford's eyes changed. This was discussed beforehand, right? You want me to leave?

Never mind, it would take more than a day to win him over. Thinking of this, he was about to speak when he heard Li Ming shout in a deep voice:

"What's there to hide? He's the son of Prince Baijan, Baron Ford, and my best friend. There's nothing I can't hear."

Huh? Ford was stunned for a moment, his eyes suddenly darkening. What kind of drama was this?

Was he doing this for me, to win my favor? Did he want to join me, too?

"Fred?" Chen Yan's eyes suddenly changed. It was not fear, but an indescribable surprise and joy.

"That's right." Li Ming frowned, stood up and walked to Ford's side, causing the bodyguard to look at him warily.

"If you have any secrets, tell me."

Chen Yan looked at the bodyguard hesitantly. Ford didn't want to offend Li Ming, so he decided to play along and said gently, "This is my personal bodyguard. He has been with me since he was a child and is trustworthy."

"You actually doubted His Highness Ford's bodyguard?" Li Ming said in a deep voice, and then with a guilty look on his face: "I'm sorry to have embarrassed His Highness Ford. It's my fault for mismanagement."

"I have offended His Highness Ford. Please tell me how to deal with this."

"That's not an offense." Ford shook his head.

"Since His Highness Ford doesn't pursue the matter, you're lucky." Li Ming waved his hand and pointed to the sofa in the distance: "You can go sit there first. I'm going to get something. If you have anything to say, I'll come back and tell you slowly."

Chen Yan stood still, his expression changing slightly.

No, what's going on?

Ford hesitated, feeling somewhat lost at the moment, and keenly sensing that something was not right.

He turned around and found that Li Ming had retreated behind his bodyguards.

At the same time, a cold voice was heard, "You actually found out."

The woman who came for unknown reasons had a blank expression on her face. Her eyes passed over Ford and landed on Li Ming: "When did you realize that my disguise was flawless?"

Huh? Ford was confused. What was going on?

The bodyguard beside him took a step forward with a solemn expression.

"His Highness Ford told me that before the door was opened." Li Ming retreated further and further away.

Me? Ford was even more confused. When did I say that?

The next moment, he finally realized that the person in front of him was someone impersonating him, and Li Ming was putting the blame on him.

Ford said in a deep voice: "Duke Bai Ye said that Jingnan Star has become a sieve now. I didn't quite believe it at first, but now it seems to be true."

"Who are you to try to kill me?"

He was of noble status and subconsciously thought that the other party's target was him, not Li Ming.

boom!

There was a roaring sound behind him. Ford turned sideways and his face twitched. He saw that Li Ming had retreated to the wall and was hitting the metal wall with his fists, as if he was preparing to run away.

A concave fist mark was left on the alloy wall.

"How could this happen? This wall can actually block my punch." Li Ming was obviously surprised. He looked at his fist and then at the wall in front of him.

There is a thin film covering it that is barely visible to the naked eye.

Chen Yan also frowned, feeling surprised and doubtful: "You can actually leave marks on my water curtain."

Ford felt ignored and sneered in his heart. Is this something to be surprised about?

Li Ming is only a D-level life form. If the alloy material is a little harder, it would definitely be difficult to tear it apart easily.

Seeing this situation, I felt much more relaxed. Judging from the situation, this woman's strength should not be that good.

"Your Highness, please be careful." The bodyguard's eyes were always on Chen Yan. He pushed Ford back and did not take action immediately.

His mission was to protect Ford's safety. This place was too narrow and the aftermath of the battle was likely to cause secondary casualties. He didn't dare let Ford leave alone. What if there were other people outside? Wouldn't that be even more troublesome?

The best plan is to find an opportunity and escape from here with Ford.

"I don't know who you are, but if you leave now, we can pretend you have never been here." The bodyguard looked solemn.

Chen Yan sneered, but before she could say anything, a red light appeared from the bodyguard's fingertips, and then it turned into a beam of light.

laugh!

It moved towards the metal wall not far away, as if trying to tear open a passage.

He grabbed Ford tightly with his other hand and then slammed his shoulder against the wall.

Li Ming had a strange look on his face and stepped aside. Chen Yan's eyes were full of sarcasm and she had no intention of stopping him.

There was a loud bang, and the wall stood still. Then ripples like water waves appeared and spread on the wall. The metal wall seemed to be covered with a layer of "water film".

Only a groove was left where his shoulder collided, which was not much different from the one left by Li Ming's fist.

"How is this possible!" The stern-looking bodyguard was also shocked, and his shoulders ached.

My attack, like the one next to me, only left a dent!?

The elemental rays just now only caused a few ripples.

Ford's calm expression also froze on his face. He couldn't understand why his bodyguard was a C-level life form.

Even if the element's lethality would be greatly reduced after leaving the body, it would not be possible for it to be inferior to Li Ming, a D-level life form.

And when he personally charged in, he could only barely leave a trace. The degree of damage was on the same level as Li Ming's?

He felt something was wrong, things didn't seem to be what he thought.

"You can't run away." Chen Yan looked at Li Ming, and didn't seem to be in a hurry to take action.

"Who are you?" Due to the angle, Ford thought the other party was talking to him, and said in a deep voice: "I am the son of Prince Baijan, the Duke of Yitlan Civilization - Ford!"

"If you kill me, the Etruscan civilization will wipe out your family, your race, your planet, and your civilization."

"Idiot, I'm not talking about you!" Chen Yan sneered.

Ford paused, a huge sense of absurdity rising in his heart. His face was very interesting, and he couldn't help but look at Li Ming beside him: "Her target is you?"

"That should be it." Li Ming secretly took out his smart terminal and took a look. There was no signal and it was blocked.

should?

Ford was so angry that he laughed, and suddenly realized that Li Ming had pushed him out from the very beginning, and he must have known who the other party's target was.

So cunning!

"Don't look at me with that expression. She will definitely not let you go." Li Ming explained.

"Not bad." Chen Yan said coldly: "Your presence here today is an unexpected gain, but it's good too. It saves me a lot of effort."

"Tate!" Ford shouted in a deep voice.

"Yes!" answered the bodyguard beside him. The outer layer of his suit suddenly exploded into pieces, revealing the combat uniform that was close to his skin. His muscles were knotted and swelled up rapidly like being blown, and flames were burning on the surface of the combat uniform.

The strong legs exerted force, causing ripples on the floor like water waves, and in an instant rushed towards Chen Yan.

Bang!

A fist as big as a millstone suddenly hit Chen Yan's face, and flames surged out, surging in all directions, but were restrained in place by an invisible force.

"She's suppressing the aftermath of the battle?" Ford was surprised. "Why?"

Li Ming narrowed his eyes.

However, Tate's face was filled with disbelief at this moment, "B-level lifeform!?"

Ford's pupils shrank, and he suddenly felt a disaster was about to happen. His head was dizzy. It was actually a B-level life form?

What on earth do the senior executives of Blue Star do for a living?

"Is your bodyguard just a C-level life form?" Li Ming frowned.

"Do you think B-level life forms are everywhere?" Ford could no longer suppress his fear and shouted angrily.

Like transparent water waves, it had wrapped around Tate, leaving him suspended in mid-air, almost unable to move.

"You're really looking for death!" Chen Yan's eyes were cold.

"Your Highness!" Veins bulged on Tate's forehead, and his tight combat uniform was torn. Strands of red hair extended from his body, his cheeks stretched, his back bulged, and the flames became more and more intense.

"Gene liberation?" Chen Yan sneered and clenched his hands suddenly. With a wail, Tate, who was half-liberated, was squeezed by an invisible force and his flesh and blood exploded.

But then, a more intense red light burst out from his flesh and blood, and Chen Yan's expression suddenly changed.

boom!

The blazing flames suddenly exploded, the temperature rose rapidly in the small room, and the flames almost filled every corner.

Ford retreated again and again until he touched the wall. He tried his best to retreat. In front of him and Li Ming, there was an invisible water wave barrier that blocked the raging fire waves.

"She...she is protecting us?" Ford finally understood.

Li Ming's eyes were deep. This guy...

If his guess was correct, the other party must be from Torch. The incident that happened two days ago caused them heavy losses, so they came directly to the door?

But his presence in that incident was not very noticeable, so even if he wanted revenge, he should look for Lao Chen.

Combined with the scene before him, he realized that the other party might not be seeking revenge. Thinking of the big plan Chen Yan mentioned, he had some vague guesses in his mind.

The flames gradually faded, and the laboratory was in a mess. Chen Yan had disappeared, and what remained was a slender figure.

Most of its body was charcoal black, and the remaining seemingly intact skin was covered with dense scales. Its head was pointed and its eyes were like snakes.

"Lizard man!" Li Ming was surprised.

"Quantum light and shadow mimicry lizardman!" Ford said in a lost voice. Li Ming looked over blankly. What the hell was that long string of things?

"They can mimic life forms with similar body shapes, even down to fingerprints and irises."

"Currently, the most active one in the Silver Cluster is the Torch's Flame Apostle—Caroline!" Ford's throat rolled: "Aren't you supposed to be dead?"

Li Ming's face was tense, but he was not surprised. He probably guessed it.

What's wrong with Lao Chen? He is so inefficient. How did the person escape?

"Yes, yes..." Caroline paced back and forth. "Quantum Light and Shadow Mimic Lizardman, that's the name you guys from Itlan gave us. Our skin is sold at a sky-high price in your Itlan market."

Ford's face was full of bitterness. He was so unlucky. He just came to contact Li Ming, but he ran into such a thing inexplicably.

Moreover, the other party was a Torch, and there was no hope of survival.

"Your injuries seem quite serious." Li Ming said tentatively, "I can get you some recovery potions."

"Don't delay any longer." Caroline sneered, "I have blocked all signals in this area. You can't escape."

"I didn't want to escape. In fact, I have admired Huo Ju for a long time. Seeing you so seriously injured and still busy with work, I really can't bear it." Li Ming said sincerely.

"Li Ming!" Ford scolded, "Torch is a terrorist organization, everyone wants to kill them!"

"You skinned someone and sold him, and you still have the nerve to say that." Li Ming glanced at him, and Ford held back his breath.

Caroline didn't respond to his words at all. She didn't know what she was waiting for. She had no intention of taking any further action. Instead, she asked, "I'm curious, how did you find the flaw?"

"Our species' mimicry is innate, and I've specifically incorporated similar gene seeds into my body. I can pass all of your laboratory's tests, including genetic testing."

That's why he could sneak in so easily, not knowing what was happening outside.

"Expression." Li Ming said solemnly, "I've been with Chen Yan for a long time. I can tell immediately if something is wrong with her."

Nonsense, [Intelligent Assistance] is everywhere, and the subtle differences are too huge.

"It seems that she completed her mission well. She is a good seed." Caroline praised.

"She is..." Li Ming was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Is she okay?"

"We Torches are not cruel to our own people, and we rarely harm innocent people." Caroline did not say it explicitly.

Li Ming secretly breathed a sigh of relief, which meant that her little deal with Chen Yan should not have been exposed.

Seeing the two of them chatting like this, Ford frowned.

Please vote for me, thank you all for your support!
