Chapter 166: Nearly Ten Million Metal Energy Powerful Upgrade
After a moment, he suddenly remembered, "Oh, right, where's the cargo...the cargo in the spaceship?"
"Goods? I didn't see it when I went in." Li Ming said helplessly: "I looked for it for a long time."
"No?" Yaluo was also confused. "How could it be?"
Yaluo remembered that batch of goods very clearly. He had even moved some of them away. It was clearly there. How could it be gone?
"How could it be that there isn't one?" Yaluo frowned. "Apart from me, there's no way anyone else knows where this place is. Could it be that someone got there first?"
After thinking for a while, he had an idea and asked, "Since the goods are gone, what were you doing in there for so long?"
He was puzzled, and considering that Li Ming didn't let him enter the spaceship at the beginning, he vaguely felt that Li Ming might be lying to him.
"I downloaded the general information and logs of that spacecraft." Li Ming opened the smart terminal, "and found some interesting things."
Yaluo's eyes dodged slightly. What was playing on the smart terminal was the scene of him constantly digging among a group of Sera people.
The Sera people looked very frightened, holding their heads and squatting on the ground. Yaluo lifted them up one by one, rubbed their faces, and observed them carefully, as if he was looking for someone.
After searching back and forth several times, he had to stop dejectedly.
"Tsk... Anti-plunder department." Li Ming grinned. "I didn't expect that Senior Brother is an undercover agent. But why don't you clean up the traces in this spacecraft?"
He clearly remembered deleting it, so how come it was still found?
Ya Luo also looked a little embarrassed. Facing Li Ming's scrutinizing gaze, he said helplessly, "Alas, these are all old stories."
"Well, Senior Brother, why don't you tell me about it? I'm quite interested in these old stories." Li Ming smiled and said, "And I also want to know what you were looking for on that spaceship."
"Well..." Yaluo's eyes flickered. "It's not that I don't want to tell you, but the department has regulations. If I tell you..."
"It's okay." Li Ming advised, "It's just the two of us. I won't tell anyone else."
Yaluo obviously still didn't want to speak and remained silent.
"The teacher probably doesn't know that you are an undercover agent." Li Ming suddenly said.
Yaluo's eyelids twitched, but he heard Li Ming sigh, "Teacher originally thought that you could lead me out of that vortex, but who knew that I would fall into this vortex again."
"But it's okay. You and I are fellow disciples. It's okay even if we die in unclear circumstances."
Yaluo's mouth twitched, and he said helplessly, "You... forget it, you've already heard most of it and can guess it. Why do you have to let me tell you?"
"The most critical factor is missing. What are you looking for?" Li Ming needs to figure this out in order to estimate the possible troubles that may arise, well... maybe there will be some benefits.
"A golden-eyed person." Yaluo finally said it out loud: "Golden-eyed people, the main ruling race of the Judge civilization."
"Golden Eyed People..." Li Ming pondered for a moment, and was familiar with the name. "It seems many interstellar civilizations would hire them as criminal consultants, right?"
"Yes, their one golden eye is naturally able to emit a shocking power that carries spiritual energy, which is very effective against those with weak wills." Yaluo nodded. "The identity of this person with golden eyes is extraordinary."
"About a year ago, the parliament of the Inquisitor civilization experienced a major upheaval. After a series of political purges, the original rulers stepped down, and persecution of the losers ensued."
"The golden-eyed individual I'm looking for has applied for political asylum from the Interstellar Alliance. Originally, this wasn't my responsibility, but as luck would have it, Atom looted this spaceship."
"Under no other circumstances, the Interstellar Alliance asked me to find a way to rescue that golden-eyed man. Who would have thought that I was still a step too late."
"Is that so..." Li Ming was a little surprised, and then asked suspiciously: "Isn't this the Inquisitor Civilization's own business? Why should the Interstellar Alliance provide political asylum?"
"Who knows? There must be something else going on." Yaluo shook his head and said helplessly, "That's just the way it is. It doesn't help our situation at all."
"What should we do next? Atom and the Sera people have discovered us and will definitely not let us leave easily."
"No rush." Li Ming shook his head and looked up at the starry sky.
Don’t be in a hurry… Yaluo wanted to persuade him, but thinking of Li Ming’s shocking performance before, he just smacked his lips in the end.
At the same time, Duke Bai Ye had already returned to his spaceship from the thunderstorm area. As soon as he entered the command cabin, a staff member quickly approached him:
"Your Excellency the Duke, I have just received news that Princess Asmara requires you to immediately proceed to the Itlan civilization."
"Hmm?" Duke Bai Ye's expression changed slightly: "When did this happen? Why did you ask me to go to the Itlan civilization?"
The staff member responded: "This message was submitted by the Embassy of the Itlan Civilization in Sera six hours ago."
"It's because of Isius's death that not only you, but everyone present at the time was said to have been asked to go to the Itlan civilization."
Duke Bai Ye frowned and felt annoyed. This matter has not yet passed?
But, think about it, he is a prince after all, not a small character, so we must find out the truth.
But he didn't want to go there, because that was someone else's territory. If they really wanted to screen his memory, he wouldn't be able to resist.
But there has to be a reasonable reason. His eyes flickered, but he listened to the staff add: "Also, three hours ago, the Judge Civilization handed us a joint investigation notice."
"An important person disappeared on the travel spacecraft of our Sera civilization."
"Judge?" Duke Bai Ye suddenly looked up. "What exactly is going on?"
The staff quickly pulled up the information and a photo popped up. "This person's disguised identity is Kai, and he's on the very spaceship we're currently tracking."
"However, this person's disguised identity was not found among the citizens released by the plunderer named Yaluo."
Duke Bai Ye suddenly felt a flash of lightning in his mind, "That's right."
"That undercover member of the Interstellar Alliance wasn't doing this for the citizens of Sera at all. I'm afraid he was trying to save this guy."
"Who knew something unexpected would happen? This guy wasn't released." Duke Bai Ye was in high spirits. "Report this joint investigation notice to the Yitlan civilization and tell them I can't leave for the time being."
"Yes." The staff nodded and quickly went to deal with the matter.
The Judge Civilization and the Itlan Civilization are both advanced civilizations, and Asmara couldn't say anything because he needed help to investigate.
The guards behind him couldn't help but remind him, "Your Excellency, if you want to take on this matter, you must also give an explanation to the Inquisitor."
"This person disappeared without a trace. I'm afraid he's nowhere to be found. Ya Luo might have rescued him. Who knows where he took him."
"Nowhere to be found?" Bai Ye smiled faintly. "According to the estimated time, after releasing the citizens, Ya Luo returned directly to Blue Star. If he really saved the golden-eyed man, he would not return to Blue Star at all."
"The only one who handled it before this was the Star Hunter. He's not in Yaluo's hands, so it's most likely in Atom's hands."
Bai Ye speculated, and the answer was almost in front of him. "Go and check the navigation log and surveillance video on that spacecraft."
"Sir, we've searched, and found nothing," the guard reported in a low voice. "It must have been destroyed."
"Destroyed? That's pretty clean." Bai Ye pondered, "My guess should be correct, but there's still a Class B life form on this planet, so it's not a good time to break up with Atom right now."
"There are too many looters. Although their overall strength isn't great, it would be a hassle to deal with them if they start to fight. Take your men and wipe out a group of them first. Make the scene look like the scene of Thurmo's death and blame it on the person hiding in the dark."
"yes!"
…
"Boss, that's it. We have blocked the entire planet now. We will find that guy sooner or later." Atom, who is usually ferocious and cruel, now faces the black virtual screen with great respect.
There was only a single sound wave line on the screen, and as it fluctuated, a dull sound came.
"You don't have much time to waste. The Itlan civilization has begun its campaign against the Torch. Over sixteen civilizations in the Silver Cluster have responded and assembled a large fleet."
"What a big move." Atom took a deep breath, and then asked curiously: "But what does this have to do with me?"
The voice continued, "No one knows where the Torch Organization's headquarters is. This coalition is powerful, and Yitlan wants to save face. In the end, it won't be all talk and no action. It will definitely attack the Land of the Stars."
"Once the outer perimeter is sealed off, you won't be able to return. Furthermore, the man with golden pupils you captured is in quite a bit of trouble. Someone is already looking for him."
Atom's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but say, "Boss, I suffered a lot of losses this time. If I return empty-handed, my subordinates will definitely not obey me."
"Stupid!" the voice shouted, "Which is more important, your life or your face?"
"Yes, boss." Atom lowered his head, his snake eyes flashing with cold light.
"Ten days. I'll give you another ten days. If you don't come back, you don't have to come back." The other party seemed to know that if he forced Atom to come back, he must be angry, so he said the final time.
"Thank you, boss!" Atom nodded hurriedly. After ending the communication, he suddenly stood up and walked towards the lower area.
…
At this moment, Li Ming and Ya Luo had already hidden in a thunderstorm area, in two caves not far apart. Ya Luo didn't know what Li Ming was going to do, and he was bored but helpless.
9.65 million metal energies. Even though a while had passed, Li Ming was still excited when he saw this number.
It was precisely because of such a large amount of metal energy that he spent several hours in the spaceship. If he had not become a C-level life form, the rate of absorbing metal energy would have become faster again.
Not to mention six hours, it would be difficult to absorb it all even in a whole day.
The risk was obviously worth it, as the metal energy reached an astonishing number, approaching tens of millions.
He thought it would exceed 10 million, but it was still a little short. The price can only be used as an estimate and cannot be used for actual conversion.
He thought that given the current situation, it would be difficult to leave the planet easily.
He was not able to deal with the two B-level life forms for the time being, so he planned to upgrade the control objects on his body first.
First take out the [Prism Ion Sword]. This ion sword has high frontal lethality and is often used as a carrier of the power of [Thunder Frenzy].
But after he became a C-level life form, his strength has obviously not kept up. He consumed metal energy and repaired it several times before, and now he finally needs to upgrade completely.
It also contains mother ore, so it is naturally not difficult to upgrade to level B.
The metal radiance flickered, and 800,000 metal energies gradually covered the sword body. The metal structure flowed and reshaped like liquid metal. The sword body gradually extended to three meters, silver-white all over, as wide as two palms, and the surface was covered with a layer of miniature energy matrix.
The hilt of the sword seemed to be inlaid with a dazzling golden gem. It was a super-energy plasma generator, which had the characteristics of higher temperature and greater destructive power.
There is a tiny gap in the center of the sword, which can be used as an orbital ion cannon, providing a means of long-range attack.
[Super Ionic Mechanical Sword--Class B: Created by mechanical craftsman Xia Yuanlun using prismatic alloy and ion polymerization technology.
…
Mastery Effect: Swordsman
Control Ability - Aggregation Slash: Increases speed by 600% and increases the ability to sever.
After waving the formation, Li Ming nodded with satisfaction, and then took out the [Justice Arm Armor]. As the backbone of the comprehensive system and the burst system, its blessing data is very impressive.
The metal energy was lost, and ripples appeared on the surface of the metal arm armor, making it more and more refined. The smooth metal surface was covered with metal particles, forming a unique texture. The original hinges and screws were replaced by magnetic connections.
[Armguards of Justice--Level B: The fist of justice only falls on sinners!
…
Control ability: Strength blessing--400%
Control Effect - Justice Fighting: Increases strength by 1000% and grants the "Blazing Fire" ability.
It lived up to everyone's expectations, with 14 times the power added. This kind of data addition is already extremely terrifying.
But the amount of metal energy consumed is also extremely terrifying, reaching 1 million metal energies.
Of course, there are also the core controllers of the materialization system——
[Tank Guard--Class B: Advanced combat mecha, strengthened layer by layer.
…
Control effect: Defense blessing--600%
Control Ability - Tank Guard: Increases defense by 1000% and gains Stoneskin.
After 900,000 metal energies were poured into it, the appearance of the Tank Guard changed drastically. The khaki exterior turned into light gold, interspersed with black lines, making it even more flashy.
Not only did it not become thicker, but it became thinner, with the height reduced to two meters, broad shoulders and a thin waist, with clear edges and corners, combining strength and beauty.
Then, there is his old friend who has been with him for a long time, the [Thunder Exoskeleton].
However, he was not planning to upgrade it to a Class B control object.
This control object is mainly used for materialization. Its ability is very ordinary, and there are many things that can replace its passive blessing.
So, he planned to turn it into a mechanical guard.
Another 900,000 metal energies surged out, the exoskeleton robotic arm flashed with arcs, a large number of metal mechanical structures turned outward, and then combined together again to derive more metal structures.
The six robotic arms were tangled together, eventually becoming a mechanical body about 1.5 meters tall, azure in color, with eyes flashing with electric arcs.
"Thunder... Creator..."
This mechanical guard is named Thunder. It has a very slender appearance and looks like a sharp assassin. It can hide in the darkness and deliver a fatal blow at any time.
The Mechanical Guard can share 50% of his own blessing. The energy levels of Thunder and Tepper are close to 100C. After sharing the blessing, the destructive power is completely at the B-level.
