Chapter 487 Mechanical Holy Spirit——Qinglong!

"Completely dissipated?" Raphael was stunned. "Forging Hammer has been there so many times and nothing happened. Why did it collapse the moment you went?"

Everyone was speechless. Although what he said was correct, it sounded so strange.

Then, Raphael mused, "The harvest should be quite significant."

The occurrence of such a major change must mean that something extraordinary is happening.

"Harvest..." Everyone looked at each other with a strange look on their faces.

"It could be said that there was no gain, but now it's hard to say." Costat looked at the mechanical army in the distance.

Raphael was puzzled. Tandin appeared from nowhere and said indifferently, "Didn't the hammer hollow out that place?"

"Your Excellency Tandin..." Costat nodded, "Most of the items have indeed been taken away by the Forge Master and the other two Masters after many explorations."

"However, there is actually a head of an ultimate machine left there, which holds the secret to reviving the Holy Spirit civilization."

"Huh?" Raphael immediately turned his attention, and Granger also turned to look.

"Secret? What secret?" Tan Ding couldn't help but be curious.

"We don't know the details yet." Costat said helplessly.

"What do you mean? The thing is not in your hands?" Alves came from another direction and everyone made way for him.

Dius seemed a little ashamed and spoke stiffly, "It's indeed not in our hands. It's in... in Li Ming's hands."

"Li Ming?" Alvis was slightly stunned, a thoughtful look in his eyes. "This name sounds familiar. Is he that Qinglong's student, the one with the potential for development at level 60, the best in interstellar history?"

"Qinglong..." Tandin frowned slightly. He was not unfamiliar with this name. He had heard it several times within the empire, with both praise and criticism.

But he hadn't paid much attention to it before. Every once in a while, a powerful life form would appear in the interstellar space and then lead a trend.

Some will die inexplicably, some will realize that keeping a low profile is the way to survive, and then disappear.

"Yes, that's him..." Dius nodded, then hesitated and said, "However, Li Ming's development potential is not level 60."

"Not level 60?" Alvis raised his eyebrows and said calmly, "It must be a rumor spread by StarCraft."

"It's not a rumor, but it's even higher than you imagined." Lancaster couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Higher than imagined?" Raphael was vaguely surprised.

"He is already an S-class life form." Costat added.

Several eyes looked at him in surprise.

Granger's face turned pale with horror, and he couldn't help but ask, "His biological age seems to be only 25 years old, right?"

Tandin's eyes sparkled, "Interesting..."

Alves was silent for a moment, then asked in confusion, "With such high development potential, Qinglong actually sent someone to explore the ruins with you? Isn't he afraid of danger?"

"This is a complicated matter..." Costat said, arranging his words. "Qinglong knows more about the ruins of the Holy Spirit Civilization than we imagined..."

Then, he recounted everything that happened in the ruins of the Holy Spirit Civilization in detail.

During this time, others made some additions, but Gonzalez seemed to want to say something several times but did not speak, trying hard to conceal his presence.

Listening to him speak, everyone had different expressions.

"He is the biggest winner." Tan Ding couldn't help but be surprised and said with interest:

"This Azure Dragon is truly not to be underestimated. Several mechanical bodies working together are actually stronger than Lancaster. His mechanical attainments are probably approaching the level of a forging hammer."

"I'm curious about how terrifying the potential that even the Protoss admire is." Alvis said slowly.

"Your doubts will be answered soon." Granger looked at the mechanical army in the distance, his scarlet pupils burning with heat.

"Unfortunately, Qinglong is not here this time." Raphael sighed, "This is a rare opportunity."

The Red River Star Stream is completely closed, and the outside world has no idea what is happening.

It is also extremely unsuitable for large-scale mechanical combat, which resulted in Mikhail and Reynolds not carrying many mechanical bodies.

If we were outside, it would not be so easy to capture these two master craftsmen.

Under normal circumstances, even their real bodies cannot be seen, and no one knows how many mechanical bodies they have accumulated.

Costat's eyes flickered slightly, it seemed that Qinglong was related to some of Adam's plans.

If he were really caught, it would be hard to say whether it would be good or bad, but the current situation is extremely appropriate.

He was also quite curious about Li Ming, and perhaps there would be unexpected gains.

Alves smiled and said, "It just so happens that because of the existence of this corpse, we are going to establish a joint research center. These two master craftsmen will come in handy. By the way, we can also study Li Ming. Such high potential is quite unusual."

Gonzalez's throat rolled over. This group of people decided Li Ming's fate with just a few words.

But he did not feel any excitement, only endless fear.

Everyone's expressions changed involuntarily, and they felt that the world is unpredictable. They didn't expect that their plan was completed in an unexpected way.

After saying that, Alves's eyes moved as he looked through the crowd, "Oh, and Mr. Gonzalez."

Everyone looked at him in tacit understanding. Gonzales, facing the overwhelming pressure, forced out an ugly smile, "That..."

………

In an unknown place, amidst the violent star stream, the bloody little spaceship was still struggling to navigate, pulling at its giant flesh and blood arm.

Inside the spaceship, Levenback stared at the virtual screen in front of him with a look of confusion. "Why are they joining in the fun?"

"who?"

The Prophet and the Virgin Mary looked at them suspiciously, took a quick glance, and asked in surprise, "Mechanical Legion?"

"Look at that mechanical squid, it's clearly Reynolds' style, and the prism particle spire should have been built by Mikhail..." Levenback explained. His identity had been revealed long ago, and now he spoke very unscrupulously.

"There are also fleets from the three major civilizations. Those people seem to be Costat..." Levenbeck was not sure either. The signal was too vague and could only be connected occasionally.

"It should be someone who explored the ruins of the Holy Spirit Civilization..." Levenbeck speculated. He naturally knew about the ruins of the Holy Spirit Civilization and had even been there.

Everything that could be taken from there had already been taken by his teacher.

"It's over so quickly?" The Virgin Mary was surprised. She also knew about this and thought, "Maybe they noticed the changes in the Red River Star Stream, so they went there."

After saying this, he couldn't help but let out a cold smile, "It seems that these people seem to have fallen into a trap. With such a big thing, the Empire and the Federation will never let them leave."

"I remember that Qinglong seemed to be one of the participants." The prophet suddenly said.

Levenbeck's eyes narrowed slightly. "That's interesting. Tandin and Alves have joined forces. It will be difficult to escape without paying a price."

"Even if you pay a price, you may not be able to escape." The Virgin Mary said lightly. Since she cut off a piece of her arm, she has become more calm.

"Perhaps, this great worry will disappear."

At this point, her face froze, and she thought of the Oath-Keeper Stone.

But as long as a breakthrough is made on this arm, the Oath-Keeper Stone can be retrieved sooner or later.

"Let's stop first." Levenbeck frowned and said in a deep voice, stopping sailing will help stabilize the signal.

The Prophet and the Virgin Mary had no objection, and they also wanted to know what the outcome would be.

………

"Mr. Gonzales is indeed sensible..." Alves smiled. "Once the Empire's shackle genes arrive, you can work for the research center we jointly founded."

Gonzalez nodded reluctantly. This was like putting a dog on a leash, and he would never be free again.

But at least he saved his life, because he was also a high-ranking member of the Star Alliance and knew a lot of secrets, which made him very valuable.

"Well, it's those guys next." Alvis turned and looked at the mechanical army with a half-smile: "It seems they are still not planning to show up."

"The mechanical army is shrinking. Are they preparing to fight to the death?" Gonzalez whispered. He had been incorporated and was considered half one of his own.

"They wouldn't be so unwise." Alves shook his head. "Although they have a backup consciousness, that's no longer their own."

He said with a hint of sarcasm: "Could it be that their bones are tougher than Mr. Gonzales?"

Gonzales was furious, but he didn't dare say anything. He simply warned, "Li Ming has a lot of tricks up his sleeve, and he's young and hot-headed. I'm afraid he won't surrender easily."

"Gonzalez, you'd better take care of yourself. Li Ming's value is far above yours." Costat said with a slight warning.

Gonzalez lowered his head with a grim expression.

From the moment Gonzalez chose to surrender, everyone no longer regarded him as someone on the same level.

It’s not wrong to cherish life, but we must also be worthy of the huge resources provided by civilization.

"Let them surrender. There will inevitably be casualties if we fight..." Tan Ding said lightly.

As they were talking, they suddenly saw a faint light in the center of the mechanical army, and then it quickly spread.

"What is that?" Costat discovered it immediately.

The bright light spread into a golden sphere in the blink of an eye, encompassing a large number of mechanical bodies surrounding it, and more mechanical bodies shrank inward.

"Are you really prepared to fight to the bitter end?" A cold light flashed in Tandin's eyes.

Although I don't know what that thing is, I have no intention of making it fully successful.

He leaped into a stream of light, tearing out a torrent of energy that shot straight forward.

He had evolved to an incredible level. The moment he stretched out his hand, the seemingly ordinary arm suddenly underwent a drastic change. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a hideous giant hairy hand covered with black flames.

The blazing black flames on it jumped and raged wildly on every hair, emitting a violent aura.

The high temperature emitted was so powerful that even in this space, the black substance below began to boil.

The giant hand pressed down, and the void was distorted wherever it passed.

"You're still so violent." Alves couldn't help but frown.

Costat's face changed slightly. He was really afraid that Li Ming would be beaten to death.

Tandin had an indifferent expression. He fought like a lion against a rabbit, using all his strength. With many years of combat experience, he had never known what mercy was.

Since the other party has chosen to resist, we can only say anything after he survives.

“That’s…!”

However, the next moment, everyone's expressions changed drastically.

The originally shining golden ball of light began to tremble violently at this moment, and the light flickered, as if it was under tremendous pressure.

In the midst of this violent tremor, an object emitting dazzling golden light suddenly swung out, like an arm or a whip.

The golden arm grasped the timing perfectly, saw through the attack trajectory of the black giant hand, and collided with it fiercely.

boom!

Time and space stopped, and everything around became silent.

Immediately afterwards, an extremely brilliant light suddenly burst out, and the golden and black lights intertwined and collided with each other, forming a huge energy vortex.

Powerful energy fluctuations spread wildly in all directions, tearing everything to pieces wherever they went.

A powerful aura came towards them, and a large number of spaceships and warships flew around.

"This is..." Alvis pointed the scepter in his hand, and ripples appeared at the end, which instantly turned into a sky-rolling curtain, protecting the surrounding spaceships.

His expression was restrained and even a little solemn.

The people around him stared at the center of the field, trying to see clearly what was happening.

Tandin frowned, watching the light on the surface of the golden arm gradually fade away.

Only then did I realize that it was not actually an arm, but rather the tail of some creature.

It is thick and solid, with a light blue surface covered with golden lines. There are vertical ridges on the back that extend into the ball of light.

And that golden ball of light, at the moment of collision, had expanded again, merging all the mechanical legions around it.

Just as Tandin was about to strike again, the golden ball of light suddenly exploded. Amidst the shattering light, he paused, and then his pupils suddenly condensed into needles. "This is..."

"Yin!"

A high-pitched roar, suspected to be a mental fluctuation, rang in everyone's ears.

"This is…"

Amidst the shocked, horrified, and bewildered gazes of the crowd, a gigantic creature with no end in sight suddenly burst out from the shattered golden ball of light.

The whole body was covered in golden light, but it faded away in an instant. Each piece of metal dragon scale seemed to be carefully crafted, with the exquisite craftsmanship breathtaking. They were closely arranged and fit together perfectly.

It is filled with intricate energy pathways, and light flows as rapidly as electric current, forming substantial patterns.

Its head is held high, looking majestic and awe-inspiring, and it has a pair of mechanical horns that are forked.

Its mechanical pupils are multi-circular and concentric, layer upon layer, complex and mysterious.

There are even flexible metal whiskers floating on both sides of the nose.

Its body stretched out in a winding manner, hovering in the void. Its thick metal claws were like pillars supporting the sky. Its tail swung at will, causing ripples in the surrounding void.

Everyone's heart seemed to be gripped, unspeakable emotions exploded in their hearts, shocking them speechless.

This is actually a giant green mechanical dragon - Qinglong!

A strong sense of oppression came over them, and the radars of all the spacecraft present emitted a harsh beeping sound.

The winding metal dragon body seemed to have no end, filling everyone's vision and impacting their hearts.
