Upon opening his eyes, Li Ming found himself in a turbulent interstellar era. Countless civilizations wielded their hunting rifles, eyeing everything in the universe with predatory gazes, and his m...
Chapter 462 Who started the trial to become the king?
"So resistant?"
Li Ming only struck once before stopping because the spirit head had disappeared.
The Mechanical King stood in the center of the energy storm, his awe-inspiring power was terrifying.
Thanks to the Tank Guard's passive [Inert Force Field], the energy fluctuations around him quickly subsided.
The X-level life form in front of him was quite impressive. This was almost the strongest strength he could exert, but the damage it caused was limited.
Li Ming also discovered that a part of the dark wall on the upper left side of the castle structure had silently melted away, as if it had suffered a severe blow and its structure had collapsed, which was very strange.
The energy microwaved, and the spirit head appeared in another position, with a look of horror on his face, and even more anger in his heart. He had never expected that a guy who was obviously just an S-level life form could actually deliver such a terrifying attack.
It came too suddenly. He had clearly sealed off the space, but the mechanical parts on the opponent's body appeared without any features.
Moreover, this burst of power was extremely skillful, with almost no leakage of lethality, all of which was poured into his body.
There was severe pain in the side ribs, regional cells were severely damaged, a large area of muscle was instantly necrotic, and almost the entire body was struggling under this terrifying force.
He stared at the huge monster in front of him, and a faint sense of threat came from him.
Their evolutionary system is special. Through special methods, they combine themselves with external objects to gain various unique abilities.
And along with the evolution of external objects, it stimulates the evolution of the body, and then becomes more and more integrated.
The castle before him was the foundation of his evolution, named - The Castle of the World, and was best at defense and blockade.
In this area, his strength will be increased to a considerable extent. His body will be connected to the castle and become one with it, and his strength will increase significantly.
But this powerful blow caused considerable trauma. If it happened in the outside world, he might have been seriously injured.
"Qinglong..." Florian also stared at the giant mechanical object in front of him. Qinglong's iconic hammer and this mecha all revealed his identity.
Was that person just now the real body of Qinglong?
S-level life forms are still within the estimates of interstellar rumors.
"But why is he here? Is he here for Clyde as well?"
Thinking of this, Florian's heart tightened, but then he thought again and felt something was wrong.
Qinglong has been active in the interstellar space. If he knew Clyde's identity, he should have taken action long ago. It is impossible for him to wait until now and just happen to run into this group of people. It is too coincidental.
Florian speculated in his mind, but he did not let his guard down easily against either side.
Clyde, who was beside him, was not injured by the surging energy under Florian's protection. He just looked at the scene in front of him with horror.
"Qinglong..." His throat rolled. He had only seen the figure of this great man in some battle videos. The most eye-catching thing was the purple giant hammer and the iconic mechanical fighting style.
Clyde is not stupid, but rather quite smart. Whether it is Florian who suddenly took him away from his hometown, or this group of unknown people who suddenly appeared, they all seem to be targeting him.
And now, Qinglong also appeared here.
"Cough... cough cough..." Seth was knocked against the wall. He waited until the energy fluctuations subsided a little before falling down. His whole body was protected by Li Ming's energy particles, so he didn't suffer much damage in the aftermath. He just felt a few broken ribs, but at least he was still alive.
He looked terrified and realized that he was involved in some major incident. He didn't dare to move for fear of attracting attention.
After Li Ming struck with the hammer, the three parties did not take action immediately, but instead looked at each other vigilantly.
The spirit leader's expression became restrained. He stared at Li Ming and said in a deep voice, "I didn't expect that there is such a powerful life form hidden here."
Before Li Ming could speak, he felt a barely perceptible mental fluctuation coming from behind. The target seemed to be the life form in front of him. The two S-level life forms in the back were conveying some message to the person in front of him.
Li Ming did not have the ability to intercept mental fluctuations, but Florian's black pupils flashed slightly, and a black symbol in front of his eyebrows floated out.
Immediately afterwards, everyone heard a voice: "Master Lingshou, the person before us seems to be a transcendent life form in this star field. His name is Qinglong. He is good at building machines and fighting with machines."
"The overall strength should have reached the level of a secondary master."
The S-level life form that transmitted the mental fluctuations had a drastic change of expression. It didn't expect that even its mental fluctuations were intercepted.
Spirit Head? It was a strange name, one he had never heard of in the interstellar world. Li Ming captured several key words and speculated in his mind.
Transcendent life forms... secondary overlords... this term seems to be prevalent only in the Terrax civilization. Some people still use this ancient name, and the other party's appearance is rare, and it seems that it does not match the several known one-eyed races.
Seth, lying on the ground, looked dazed: "Qinglong?"
The Damenles stargate node is quite boring on weekdays, with no entertainment. All I do every day is surf the Internet intensively.
He was well aware of major interstellar events. The recent events of the Mechanics Association had caused a lot of uproar, and it seemed that the stargate node had been blown up by a mechanic.
Seth knew a lot about this Azure Dragon Master Craftsman, but he never expected that one day he would be able to meet him in person.
But... it's not this kind of meeting! He was terrified.
The spirit leader's face looked grim, but at least he knew the other party's general information. He said in a deep voice: "So it's the Azure Dragon Master Craftsman. It's really lively here today."
"Do you believe me if I say I just happened to pass by?" The Mechanical Lord made a processed voice, which was heavy and magnetic.
"Just passing by?" The spirit leader stared at him with his one eye. "Since you are just passing by, you can leave now."
Bang!
The castle gate suddenly opened.
The spirit leader had an expressionless face as he quietly looked at the person in front of him, but he was extremely alert in his heart. The opponent's strength was not enough to crush him, but the methods of this Qinglong were indeed suspicious.
"Wouldn't it be better if you let me go earlier?" Li Ming couldn't help but shake his head and raised his hand. Seth, who had been hit against the wall, flew back, closed his eyes and trembled.
Then, some metal debris scattered on the ground fell into his hands and disappeared in the blink of an eye. It was already quite impressive that it could survive the energy storm just now.
He seemed to be really going to leave, and the Mechanical Lord walked towards the door.
"Sir Qinglong," Florian looked thoughtful and uneasy. The current situation was critical. He had to protect Clyde by himself and might not be able to escape.
No matter why Qinglong came, I know him better than the people in front of me.
Li Ming paused, "Sir Florian, do you have anything else to say?"
The Spirit Leader immediately said in a deep voice, "If Your Excellency Qinglong is just passing by, it would be best if you don't get involved in this matter."
"I have the information you want," Florian said immediately, adding, "The information you asked the two master craftsmen to gather separately."
Li Ming's eyes lit up slightly. Blood of the World?
While he was interested, he was also quite speechless. Reynolds and Mikhail were really clumsy in their work. It seemed as if everyone knew that he wanted information about the World's Blood.
The spirit leader's face was grim, and Li Ming said, "My friend, I'm really sorry, but Mr. Florian and I have some connections, so..."
The spirit leader gritted his teeth, half of his body still aching slightly. If Florian was alone, he would have entered his fortress and used some of his best tricks. He would have had some chance of defeating the opponent, or snatching the target from the opponent.
But with this Azure Dragon involved, things become very troublesome, and the difficulty increases exponentially.
Thinking of this, he became more and more angry. If it weren't for the interference of the River of Eternal Silence, which caused the sacred crystal to only be able to frame a rough range, the Azure Dragon would not have been able to interfere.
The bloodline of Saint King Terrax is related to the trial of becoming a king, but...
The spirit leader's teeth were about to break, his eyes fixed on Clyde, so close... so close...
Huh? The target is only B-level lifeforms?
The spirit leader was shocked to find that Florian was blocking the other party's sight just now, which caused him not to perceive it carefully, and he only discovered it now.
But at this level, he couldn't even meet the minimum standard to pass the King's Trial.
Wasn't it him who caused the Eternal Holy Throne fluctuations?
But if it weren't for the bloodline of Saint King Terrax, who else could have gone through the test of becoming a king? Even if they were at the same level, the difficulty was already sky-high.
The sudden discovery caused many thoughts to flash through Ling Shou's mind, disrupting his thinking.
Seeing that the spirit leader remained silent, Florian became cautious. The other party's origin and methods were unknown. Even if he and Li Ming joined forces, they probably couldn't kill him.
Thinking of this, he took the initiative to offer an excuse, "Sir, can we just treat today as a misunderstanding?"
The burly figure still exuded a power that could not be underestimated. The spirit head glanced at the two of them and said expressionlessly, "You can leave now."
Flory couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and carefully protected Clyde as they walked towards the castle gate.
Although it is an X-level life form, it now acts like an ordinary life form, walking step by step, but being extremely alert in its heart, until it steps out of the castle gate with Qinglong.
Bang!
The castle gate slammed shut, then shrank to an imperceptible size in an instant and suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Strong winds were blowing in from all directions. The creatures setting up stalls at the door and some tourists wandering around were all dazed and dumbfounded, not knowing what was happening.
An imperceptible fuzzy force field enveloped Li Ming and his companions, and they disappeared in the space before their eyes.
Li Ming shook lightly, and the mechanical guards fell down one by one and then walked into his body.
Florian had become hunched over again, donning a black robe at some point. He glanced back at the empty space where the castle had vanished and couldn't help but sigh, "So many innocent lives..."
Clyde also looked gloomy.
Li Ming glanced at the two people in front of him, especially the young man. Florian was standing in front of the other person, obviously very alert.
"Let's find a place to talk?" Li Ming asked tentatively, and Florian nodded.
Then, Tan Wei suddenly disappeared, and Li Ming seemed to be in a trance.
The main combat system did not switch, and all defenses were strengthened to avoid sudden attacks from that spiritual leader.
Then he slapped Seth, who was pretending to be unconscious, and said, "Let's go."
"Where... where?" Seth trembled, pretending to be confused even though he knew the truth. Under Li Ming's half-smile, he nodded dejectedly: "I understand."
Li Ming then said, "Sir Florian, his specialty dishes are quite good, it's a good time to try them."
Florian's eyes were dark, making it difficult to tell what he was thinking.
Looking up and down at the person in front of me, I always felt that there was something strange about him. Why did his tone become much more polite?
"Mr. Qinglong?" he asked tentatively.
Li Ming was slightly stunned and couldn't help shaking his head: "I am Li Ming, my teacher has left temporarily."
"Are you Li Ming?" Florian's dark pupils seemed to burst with substance as he blurted out, "Aren't you a Class A lifeform?"
He asked a stupid question, which showed how shocked the military advisor of the Holy Revolutionary Army was.
"The development progress is a bit fast." Li Ming smiled implicitly.
A little faster?
Florian couldn't calm down. He subconsciously estimated the other party's development potential and became more and more surprised.
Florian's mind was filled with thoughts, and he couldn't help but feel disappointed. "Your Excellency Qinglong is indeed confident. You released such a precious seed like this, and you are not afraid of anything happening."
Florian thought secretly that with his current distance, he could kill Li Ming before he could react.
There is not even time to put on the mecha.
Of course, this idea only flashed through my mind.
Clyde, standing behind him, grew increasingly curious. Compared to Qinglong's fame, his student, Li Ming, was also quite famous in the interstellar world.
Mainly because of his terrifying development potential, and he is one of the people with the highest development potential publicly disclosed in interstellar history.
He has a friend who admires Li Ming very much and knows all about his deeds like the back of his hand.
He was actually already an S-level life form. He felt a sense of emotion in his heart, but he was not too surprised, because this level was too far away from him, and it was difficult for him to understand what it meant.
Sai looked nervous and didn't dare to say anything. He led the way all the way to Lao Fette's rotten shop. The line was still very long and they didn't go through the main entrance.
Instead, he went around to the back, took out a key, and entered through the locked side door.
After entering, he found a storage room. He carefully stuck his head out, but before he could say anything, he heard a loud shout: "Stinky boy!"
Seth looked up, but before he could say anything, a large foot came towards him and kicked him back.
The kick was quite ruthless. Seth flew backwards and fell to the ground with a bleeding nose and a crooked mouth and eyes.
"Dad, Dad!" he shouted and suddenly got up.
His father rushed out menacingly. He was a rather large man with bare arms, a ferocious face, thick hair, and indigo skin. He held a large metal kitchen knife in his hand and shouted, "How many times have I warned you not to take people down this road!"
He raised the big knife and chopped it off Seth's head without mercy. Seth's eyebrows jumped.
Clang! The broadsword embedded itself into the floor.
Li Ming twitched the corner of his mouth. It was obvious that the boss was really merciless. If Seth had reacted a little slower, he might have been split in half.
