Chapter 367 Infinite Hammer Holy Spirit Core Career Promotion Device

"Don't worry, you look like you're still studying from outside." said the little white elephant.

Li Ming was puzzled. "Aren't you going to choose a successor?"

"It's already been chosen." said the little white elephant.

Li Ming's heart skipped a beat, and he said cautiously, "It can't be me, right?"

"That's right." The white elephant confirmed his guess, and Li Ming was speechless.

"Is it that simple?" He struggled a little. After agreeing, he would definitely complete the Pioneer Project. He was still a little hesitant.

Originally, he thought he was already facing off against the Empire, and if the status of heir brought more benefits, he wouldn't mind completing the pioneer's plan.

But Prince Costat's ambiguous attitude made him realize that the blame-sharing plan did not necessarily mean that the empire would target him.

So, he hesitated again and wanted to let things take their own course, but the position of Ruler of the Holy Elephant was directly chosen.

"Because of my development potential?" Li Ming asked tentatively.

"No..." Contrary to his expectation, the white elephant shook its head and the metal door behind it opened. Li Ming hesitated for a moment and followed it up.

"It's because you are related to Talos. Your teacher should be Talos."

Li Ming paused in his tracks, horrified. He never expected to hear these three words from the mouth of the Holy Elephant.

"I have been suppressed by Klonoa for so many years. The smell on your body is too obvious. Your blood even has that smell, but you are not him. There is only one possibility, your teacher." The little white elephant head didn't even respond.

Li Ming remained silent. It seemed that the Holy Elephant of Domination had misunderstood something, but he was more curious about what the other party meant by suppression.

"Don't you know?" The Holy Elephant of Domination was not surprised, but just said to himself:

"When your teacher stepped into the dimensional world, the authority of Chronoa's world was shaken, and I took the opportunity to escape. Your teacher is like my savior." The white elephant continued.

"Is there such a thing?" Li Ming was also shocked. The appearance of the Holy Elephant of Domination was actually related to him. This was too...

"You seem to be very resistant to inheritance?" The white elephant stopped at the end of the corridor, in front of a metal portal.

"It's not that I'm resisting. I just want to ask what I need to do after inheriting the inheritance?" Li Ming asked conservatively.

"It's something that needs to be done, but if it were you, it wouldn't be necessary. That's the main reason I chose you."

Li Ming was even more puzzled, and only heard the Holy Elephant of Domination continue:

"The master died in the depths of the dimensional world. This is a very broad statement. To be more precise, he died at the hands of the Xingyuan Empire, Chronoa, and Istanbul."

Li Ming listened attentively and felt that the name Istanbul was very familiar.

"The Empire's Star of Eternal Silence was lost, and they hired the Master to search for it. Following the clues, the Master found the Star deep within the dimensional world and indeed found traces of it. However, he was besieged by Chronoa and Istanbul, and requested assistance from the Empire."

"But the empire wanted to put the bow and arrows away, unwilling to rescue the master, allowing him to be besieged and die."

Li Ming could clearly feel the anger contained in the words of the Holy Elephant of Domination. What he needed was not a successor, but an avenger.

The Holy Elephant of Domination continued, "Among the three parties, your teacher is bound to fight Chronoa, and he's also not on good terms with the Empire. As for Istanbul, if you can truly resolve the first two problems, you shouldn't mind getting rid of him along the way."

So that's how it is... Li Ming pondered for a moment, then couldn't help but ask, "Master Hammersmith, have you really found the Star of Eternal Silence?"

"Actually, there isn't one," the Ruling Holy Elephant said. "The Star of Eternal Silence is a legacy of the Terrax civilization. The master used the Terrax Stone as a guide to find it."

"According to the resonance, I came to the depths of the dimensional world, but what I found was the Holy Castle of Terrax."

Li Ming's brows twitched slightly. "What is the Holy Castle?"

The Ruling Holy Elephant explained: "The place where the Terraxian Overlords live, the Star of Eternal Silence, is where the Empire found it in a holy fortress."

It's something like the remains of civilization.

"The Empire misunderstood, believing the Master had already been found, and so they didn't waste any effort rescuing him. Unfortunately, the Holy Fortress isn't fixed, constantly moving through the dimensional world." The Ruler Holy Elephant sneered, "In the end, they found nothing."

Li Ming understood and asked again, "What kind of weapon is the Star of Eternal Silence?"

The Holy Elephant of Domination must know a lot, enough to solve many of his doubts.

"The Star of Eternal Silence..." The Holy Elephant of Domination paused before speaking:

"You can think of it as a spacetime parameter regulator, locking the spacetime velocity in a certain area. Due to the self-regulating mechanism of the universe, different movement of spacetime velocity will lead to regional conflicts."

"It can eventually cause the anomalous spacetime region to collapse, and it can be used as a destructive weapon over a large area. Of course, this is only one of its functions, and I don't know much about it."

"Adjustment of space-time parameters..." Li Ming thought. No wonder it was coveted by so many people. It was indeed a powerful weapon.

"What do you think?" urged the Holy Elephant of Domination.

"What can I get after inheriting it?" Li Ming asked again.

The white elephant was impatient, but still said: "All the master's knowledge, the core of the Holy Spirit, the infinite hammer..."

"Don't you have a hammer?" Li Ming's heart suddenly became hot.

"I lied to them, but the hammer was damaged in the master's battle and is not intact." The white elephant reminded.

Li Ming nodded, not surprised. Just as he was about to speak, he paused, "Not including you?"

"Not included." The Holy Elephant of Domination didn't expect this guy to have his eyes on him. He said unhappily, "I've been corroded by Chronoa for too long, and my body is severely damaged."

"And..." The little white elephant paused, his tone melancholy. "I miss my master. I want to go with him. After I've dealt with everything, I'll completely disappear."

Li Ming was silent, feeling a lot of emotions in his heart.

After thinking for a while and summarizing all the current information, he gradually came up with an idea. Glancing at the white elephant, Li Ming whispered:

"That's right. If I were to obtain the inheritance of the Hammersmith in a fair and honest manner, I'm afraid it would put me in the spotlight."

"So, could you please choose another successor on the surface?"

"Huh?" The Holy Elephant of Domination was surprised.

Li Ming continued, "You just saw it. The Empire and I are at odds. If they really give it to me, they will definitely not let it go easily."

Originally, he thought that the Ruling Holy Elephant would follow the heir, and if a false heir was chosen, the Ruling Holy Elephant would be lost, so he had not considered this option.

But since the Holy Elephant will destroy itself, it doesn't matter.

"You think the same as I do," the Holy Elephant of Domination said, "If I give it to you openly, the Empire will inevitably interfere."

What surprised him just now was that the two of them wanted to go together.

Li Ming paused slightly. This Saint Elephant was really thoughtful.

"I have another suggestion..." Li Ming said, striking while the iron was hot. "You can also announce to the public that the death of the Hammersmith God has occurred in the Xingyuan Empire. This will be broadcast live to the outside world. It will definitely cause a big stir."

"You..." The Holy Elephant of Domination did not agree immediately. Instead, he asked, "Was this big scene outside caused by your teacher?"

He understood that someone was secretly causing trouble.

"It's not the teacher, but a few of the teacher's friends." Li Ming smiled shyly, and Tongyu Shengxiang also did not refuse. He was going to die anyway, and he was happy to cause some trouble to the empire.

"In that case, I have no objection. Thank you for your appreciation." Li Ming nodded, marveling in his heart. He didn't expect things to end in this way.

I have a deep connection with this ruling holy elephant.

"bring it on."

The metal door in front of him opened, revealing a small room. The first thing that caught his eye was the giant purple hammer placed in the center, nearly three meters high and covered with mottled cracks.

The hammer head is huge and heavy, the purple metal surface is rough and tough, and the cracks are like winding canyons.

The handle of the hammer was also covered with tiny cracks. When the light shone, the cracks on the purple hammer reflected strange light.

Infinitely heavy hammer, Li Ming couldn't help but walk forward and hold the hammer handle. It was so heavy that he couldn't lift it at all.

[Infinite Heavy Hammer--Level X (Damaged): A super treasure forged by the master hammersmith.

Control conditions: One billion metal energies

Control Effect: Infinite Power

Control Ability - Star-Shaking Hammer: Materialize the controlled object, and when holding it, you can double your own strength.

Control ability——??? (Repair to reveal)】

Even if it is damaged, it still requires a billion metal energies, which is staggeringly expensive.

But just the two abilities of [Infinite Power] and [Star-Shaking Hammer] were enough for Li Ming to feel that it was worth the price of admission, and it made his heart beat wildly.

"If you want to restore it, you need at least an S-class lifeform," said the Holy Elephant of Domination, feeling nostalgic. "If your teacher were a master craftsman, perhaps it would be possible to restore it."

He then added, "Of course, it's only possible. After all, the Divine Craftsman level was defined by the Master. It's not that there isn't a higher level, it's just that the Master didn't define it."

There was a hint of arrogance in his words as if "Master is the best in the world". Li Ming naturally did not want to argue with him and looked at the golden core on the side.

"The Holy Spirit Core, this is the master's true pinnacle creation!" said the Holy Elephant.

Li Ming stretched out his finger and touched lightly--

[Holy Spirit Core--Special Type (Damaged): The core of the Mechanical Holy Spirit, the painstaking efforts of the forging master.

Control conditions: 2 billion metal energies

Control Effect - Mechanical Holy Spirit: Absorbs the mechanical body and forms a Mechanical Holy Spirit (Due to the damaged state, the Holy Spirit's strength cannot exceed level X, repair it to break through.)]

Even if it is broken, it will still require 2 billion metal energies?

Li Ming's eyelids twitched violently, and every word above struck his heartstrings.

He even couldn't help but think of the "last piece of the puzzle", which formed a nearly perfect feedback between him and his own forces.

By earning metal energy through the Mechanical Royal Court and manufacturing a large number of mechanical bodies, the continuous enhancement of its own strength can also feed back to the power and expand the scale.

After gaining control, you can directly absorb the special abilities from the control page and fuse them with the mechanical body, which is very convenient and fast.

"It's so perfect." Li Ming couldn't help but say.

"Of course, this took the master thousands of years to perfect." The Holy Elephant of Domination grew more and more proud.

"However," the Holy Elephant of Control said, "This technology is not without its shortcomings. After all, it involves a large number of mechanical bodies, which can be easily hacked by virtual data."

"I remember that the Mechanical Soul Master seemed to have developed a special method to target this, and the Master even cursed about it for a long time."

Hacked? Li Ming was slightly stunned, unconcerned. His mechanical body could never be affected by virtual data, and this hidden danger was eliminated.

He also tried to appease the Holy Elephant, "There is no flawless technology in this universe."

"That's right." Tongyu Shengxiang didn't care too much. Seeing that Li Ming was still excited, he felt quite satisfied.

The last thing is something like a badge.

"It contains all of the master's technical knowledge, and was forged by the master with great effort before his death." The Lord of the Holy Elephants said in a low voice.

Li Ming took over——

[Relics of the Divine Craftsman - Special Type: Contains all the knowledge of the Hammersmith.

Control conditions: 200 million metal energy

Control Effect - Promotion: Promotion to mechanical-related professions.

It’s actually a career advancement device?

Li Ming was slightly surprised, but his mood became better. This time he really made a lot of money.

However, all these things combined would require more than 3 billion metal energies, which is a long and arduous journey.

"Don't worry, I will definitely learn with an open mind," Li Ming promised, but then hesitantly asked, "Um, didn't the master forger leave any metal materials?"

"Yes..." The Holy Elephant nodded, but quickly added, "But, it was all consumed while I was resisting Chronoa's erosion. Otherwise, I would have died long ago."

Li Ming's eyes lit up and then dimmed. He quickly adjusted his mood. The harvest this time was already rich enough.

But when he heard the other party mention Chronoa, he couldn't help but ask, "How strong is this Chronoa?"

The white elephant narrated, "Dimensional life forms of Klonoa's level are rare in the entire dimensional world. Due to the special nature of dimensional life forms, if they were to fight on home turf, no X-class life form would be a match for him."

"The reason I was able to resist his erosion is because I'm special. With the help of the Infinite Hammer, I can shrink to the nanoscale, which greatly improves my body's defense. Chronoa happens to be a macroscopic creature, so I was able to withstand it for so many years."

Shrinking to the nanometer level, Li Ming was shocked. It was really scary that the size of the Holy Elephant was reduced to the nanometer level.

The Holy Elephant of Domination then said, "But due to the adaptation of the world's authority, Chronoa's main body cannot leave. Your appearance has widened this rift."

Li Ming had already learned the news from the housekeeper.

After a little thought, he looked at the three things in front of him with embarrassment. Except for the badge, the other two things could not be put into the folding space.

The Commanding Holy Elephant saw his dilemma, and the little white elephant stretched out its trunk, emitting a suction force.

Under Li Ming's surprised eyes, the extremely heavy Infinite Hammer and the Holy Spirit Core were sucked into its nose and then spit out.

But it has shrunk many times. The hammer is only the size of a thumb, and the surface is covered with a layer of white film.

The Holy Elephant of Domination explained, "This is a hyperspace coating. Its mass has disappeared. You can place it in the folded space, but remember, once it is cut open, it cannot be restored."

Li Ming took it and understood. This should be the ability to control the holy elephant. He sighed secretly.

The Hammersmith is really amazing. The Infinite Hammer, the Holy Spirit Core, and the Dominating Holy Elephant are all top-notch items. He is worthy of being the founder of the Mechanics Association.

In the middle of the month, please vote for next month, hehe
