This Is Truly Not Mechanical Ascension

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 544: Qinglong is preparing X-level gene seeds

In the hall, everyone's eyes were focused on Qinglong.

The current changes in the situation are somewhat unexpected and seem a bit too frivolous.

But on second thought, this was the last resistance that Perkins and others could make.

All ten directors are here, including the initiator and deputy director, and those watching the vote are all X-level life forms. Is this a joke?

It doesn't seem like a joke.

“…This is against the procedure. Voting on the board seats shouldn’t be this simple.” Knox’s face was solemn. Only at this moment did anyone listen to him.

His gaze fell on Gustav and Anatoly again, his eyes sharp, as if questioning why they didn't stop them.

Gusta remained silent, and Anatoly even smiled in response.

They certainly would not stop it, starting from the preparations for the expansion of the United Organization of Higher Life Forms and the replacement of the board seats.

Needless to say, these two had already reached an agreement with the three major civilizations, but the others were all holding their breath.

We drew a blueprint when we invited them to join, but now that they are no longer needed, we kick them away.

The last forced vote had already shown signs of trouble. These seven guys are not simple people, and they are not powerless to resist. They just did not overturn the table because of various fears.

The two of them naturally understood this, and had been keeping a low profile during this period, acting only as yes-men for the three major civilizations. They would never take the initiative to offend these seven explosive materials to avoid being used as an outlet.

And because the last proposal failed, the people of the Star Alliance were embarrassed.

He simply launched a challenge in advance in front of everyone, made a so-called appointment, humiliated these seven guys again, and accumulated more anger.

The appearance of Qinglong happened to be an outlet for them to vent their emotions.

Several of them have never spoken a word to Qinglong and don't even have a friendship with him, so why are they willing to respond to Qinglong every time?

Wouldn't it be possible to use this to make the three major civilizations feel as uncomfortable as if they had eaten a fly, especially the leading Star Alliance.

The resentment of the seven explosive packs was combined into one rope by this incident. The three civilizations were able to block it, but the two of them did not want to be blown up.

Perkins's flushed cheeks showed no expression as he interrupted immediately, "The Interstellar Alliance simply stipulates that in matters involving other civilizations and interstellar security, proposals must be voted on under the supervision of the three major civilizations."

"But this is a personnel replacement issue within the Higher Life Forms Union Organization, and does not involve the outside world..."

Knox's expression was no longer calm. Looking at the other board members who were united against Perkins, he knew that this matter had failed.

A feeling of depression rose in his heart, and his slightly gloomy gaze fell on Qinglong's virtual projection again.

Others are just taking advantage of the situation, but the root cause is still Qinglong.

The previous video had infinitely elevated Qinglong's strength level, which in turn fed back into the current events, allowing Perkins to find a breakthrough.

The other higher life forms watched the confrontation between the two sides in silence, but their eyes flashed with inexplicable meanings.

They realized that this united organization of higher life forms seemed to be able to truly fight against the three major civilizations.

In the past, not even Gustavo, let alone Perkins, could have confronted the three major civilizations head-on with such confidence.

The premise is that they must unite. The three major civilizations have also seen this, so they must replace the seats on the board of directors and cannot let them work together.

The emotions in everyone's hearts were a little subtle. Although they had originally thought that it was none of their business, they now felt a little uncomfortable.

What if, in the future, a random vote really gets you killed?

The only good news is that the president and vice president have not been replaced yet.

According to the rules, the combined votes of the three of them could rival the remaining seven. If they disagreed, nothing could be accomplished.

Faced with this so-called joint organization of higher life forms, everyone now felt a sense of close connection and thought of many things.

I don't think Gustav and Anatoly have really become dogs of the three major civilizations. It's just an exchange of interests.

Most people can estimate Gustav's strength. There are only a few people among the three major civilizations who can defeat him with certainty, and they are all powerful people at the foundation level. It is impossible for them to become the chairman of the board.

Anatoly is similar. Although his strength is inferior to Gustav's, he is not simple either. He has a high reputation and has not taken action for many years.

It’s not that we simply don’t want to change it, but it’s very troublesome to change it. Reaching an agreement with them is the easiest way.

In what happens next, Gustav and Anatoly should not blindly choose sides.

Li Ming sensed the strange atmosphere at the scene and felt helpless, but by accident, he became the vanguard of the resistance.

Although he didn't care much about this seat, now that things had come to this, he couldn't possibly slap Perkins and others in the face.

Besides, this vice-chairman seat is not without benefits, in fact, it has quite a few benefits.

[Infinite Hammer] was repaired, his strength increased again, and his mentality changed a little bit.

"Alas..." He sighed, with a wry smile on his face, "Everyone is really..."

He stopped talking halfway, looked helpless, and shook his head and sighed.

His Excellency Qinglong's acting skills are really good.

Everyone was speechless, having already determined that this series of events was all planned by Qinglong himself.

Reynolds released a video that demonstrated his attitude and strength, and chose the right time to make a shining appearance. With Perkins's acquisition of the vice-chairman seat, everything was perfect.

In such turbulent times, your actions are extremely accurate, and you can get what you want simply and easily.

Qinglong is indeed unfathomable.

"No matter what..." Li Ming's face turned serious. "Since you all trust me so much, there's no reason for me to refuse any further."

"...From now on, I will assume the corresponding responsibilities and contribute my efforts to the stable development of the Higher Life Forms Alliance and the security and stability of the interstellar space..."

Snap-Snap-Snap!

As soon as the words fell, applause rang out at the right time. Everything was so harmonious and warm.

“…So, next…”

After waiting for a moment, Li Ming put his hands together and waited for the applause to gradually die down, then he looked at Gustav.

Gustav nodded slightly, took a step forward, and said, "First of all, congratulations to His Excellency Qinglong on winning the Vice Chairman seat. I believe that working with His Excellency Qinglong in the future will be a pleasure."

"I haven't finished reading the congratulatory letters from the leaders of various civilizations. Let's continue."

As he finished speaking, the virtual screen behind him lit up again, and Adam, who had not yet finished speaking, appeared on the screen again, narrating with a smile on his face.

Li Ming also watched with great interest. Everyone had different thoughts and their minds were not focused on this at all.

This is the last step.

After that, Gustav said a few polite words and announced the end of today's initiation ceremony.

Before I even left, someone immediately asked me how to purchase the relevant knowledge and resources of the evolution system.

"A specific process will be announced soon," Gustav responded. "Please be patient."

Li Ming also wanted to log off, but was stopped.

"Your Excellency Qinglong, I heard that the Mechanical Royal Court is seeking new partners." The visitor handed over a business card.

Benac, the Executive Director of the Terran Chamber of Commerce, also an interstellar human, nodded and said, "We are willing to hire your indestructible mechanical body at a generous price to serve as a hired guard."

This is a powerful chamber of commerce, mainly active in the Starry Sea and the Federation, and is composed of several X-level life forms.

"Of course." Li Ming stretched out his hand. He was a virtual projection, so he naturally couldn't get a physical business card.

But the moment they made contact, the fluorescent particles formed a virtual business card in Li Ming's hand, along with contact information.

He was not the only one, many people came one after another, wanting to cooperate with the Mechanical Royal Court.

Some of them were really attracted by the unique mechanical bodies of the Mechanical Royal Court and had few opportunities to come into contact with them in the past, while others were simply trying to show their goodwill.

Li Ming naturally accepted all the suggestions and gained a lot of in-depth cooperation.

The official X-level life forms have begun to withdraw, and other higher life forms have also left.

Soon, some of the news had quietly spread.

This initiation ceremony was broadcast live in its entirety outside the Interstellar Alliance by all major interstellar official media outlets.

Many people in the interstellar space are paying close attention to this, and all major civilizations and forces are considering the impact of this matter on themselves.

Ordinary living beings are more focused on watching the show, discussing these old guys who have lived for thousands of years, and making various speculations and paying attention.

However, because the incident lasted for too long, the attention has dropped a lot. After all, looking at these life forms, no matter how advanced they are, cannot stop you from feeling hungry.

But soon someone discovered that the seats on the board of directors of the United Organization of Higher Life Forms on the official website of the Interstellar Alliance had quietly changed.

Qinglong suddenly changed from a member of the board of directors to a vice-director.

The reason announced by the Interstellar Alliance was very brief, consisting of only one sentence:

The board of directors voted to appoint Mr. Qinglong to replace Mr. Perkins as vice-chairman.

This incident did not cause much heated discussion, and most people did not even know what it meant.

Only in the eyes of a small number of Star Wars fans who have been paying close attention did it spark a heated discussion.

It is believed that something major must have happened in the venue to lead to this change.

Not long after the meeting ended, a picture came out from somewhere.

The light around was dim and the figures were blurry. Only the virtual screen in the center was clear. It was a giant blue metal dragon, majestic and awe-inspiring, facing two blurry figures.

At first glance, it seems like nothing can be seen, but when it falls into the hands of certain civilizations or forces, it will cause an uproar.

………

On the Empire's capital planet, Adam frowned slightly as he listened to the report from the virtual bust in front of him. This person was one of the X-level life forms present in the hall.

"...Red River Star Stream video, Vice Chairman..." Adam tapped the table. "I understand. Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Bonat."

Bonat is quite powerful. There are not many people like him in the entire empire. He belongs to another system and hardly participates in the game of political power.

Under normal circumstances, he would have to be treated politely.

"It should be..." Porter nodded, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. He wanted to ask what was discovered in the depths of the Red River Star Stream.

But when he realized that Adam was pretending to be hesitant and had no intention of joining in, he said helplessly, "I'll leave first."

Adam nodded, watched the virtual screen go out, and turned his head. On another screen, the video played by Reynolds was playing.

There is really not much to see in the entire video, the focus is on the strength shown by Qinglong.

As for what happens deep within the Red River Star Stream, many civilizations and high-level life forms have their own speculations.

This video simply verifies their speculation and has little impact.

As for Qinglong's strength being exposed, he really didn't care.

Reynolds deliberately edited the video so as not to reveal that this was actually a mechanical holy spirit formed by the fusion of many mechanical bodies, and not Qinglong's true body.

But he had no intention of refuting the rumor.

"In this case, the Star Alliance will suffer a huge loss." Adam thought.

The Star Alliance intended to use the organization of higher life forms to force them to reveal the secret of the Red River Star Stream, but in the end it only obtained two ordinary seats, the same as the Empire.

He casually tapped the virtual screen, and another half-body virtual projection appeared. He was wearing a military uniform and seemed to be an officer of the Empire's intelligence personnel.

Adam casually asked, "Ansel, how was the video?"

"The video has been carefully processed and no redundant information has been extracted," Ansel reported.

"The Divine Craftsman's skills are still very sophisticated." Adam nodded. Just as he was about to wave his hand, he heard the other party say, "Holy Emperor, we have already found the clues to what you asked us to investigate."

"Oh?" Adam's expression changed slightly, and he even sat up straighter, which showed how much he valued this matter.

“The information has been sent to you.

Adam narrowed his eyes and waved his hand. Ansel nodded respectfully and the bust disappeared.

Adam waved his hand, and blue light particles formed a virtual data package before his eyes.

With a slight spread of his fingers, the data package suddenly exploded, turning into a large amount of video and graphic materials, which were constantly reorganized to form a hexagonal matrix, surrounding it in a ring.

The text takes on a bronze glow as it scrolls, while the accompanying image zooms to millimeter-level precision as the eye focuses.

“…Desolate Waterway Investigation Report…”

"...The sudden change of venue for the Dusk Banquet..."

"...The coordinates of a location suspected to be the haunt of a high-level star beast..."

Adam watched carefully and tapped a certain encrypted document with his finger. The text immediately decomposed into a particle stream and locked onto the corresponding video material.

“…Yeah, who knew Qinglong was so abnormal? He didn’t even show up himself, just a student, but he could block the combined attack of so many of us…”

The person who was speaking had his back to the screen, facing a floor-to-ceiling window. He seemed to be in a very high position, and his tone was emotional and frightened.

This is the empire's advanced intelligence. Every piece of information has an extremely accurate source and has been verified many times.

Adam was so engrossed that he stopped breathing and kept flipping through the pages.

"...After Li Ming returned from the Desolate Channel, he secretly visited the Night Moon Biological Company. Since then, the delivery of several advanced gene seeds from the Night Moon Company has been postponed, and Sheffield has not appeared since..."

"Intelligence Room Conclusion: Based on intelligence gathered from multiple sources, we have reason to speculate that Azure Dragon obtained an extremely high-level star beast in the Desolate Channel, the same star beast that the Dusk Feast originally intended to hunt, and handed it to Sheffield, who then developed an X-level gene seed."

His gaze fixed on the final conclusion. He was silent for a long time before he exhaled, "It's just that, X-level gene seed..."
