Chapter 167: Sneak Attack, I Flash in Space! (Sorry, I’m late again)
After thinking for a while, he decided to upgrade another item--
[Silver-gray magnetic nanoparticles - Class B: Nanoparticles with multiple properties.
………
Control effect: Physical strength boost--600%
Control Ability - Fusion: Silver-gray particles can fuse with any controlled object of the same level, doubling its performance, and can also use super-magnetic properties to interfere with and restrain the enemy.
After the silver-gray particles were upgraded, they also underwent new changes. They coiled around Li Ming's arm like a silver snake, carrying extremely strong super electromagnetic force.
Li Ming tried it. Once it came into contact with the target, it would wrap around it and release a huge electromagnetic force. The greater the adhesion, the more difficult it would be for the enemy to break free.
Because of its nano properties, it can be transformed into various shapes, making it an excellent choice as a trap.
It consumed another 800,000 of his metal energy.
After the upgrade, Li Ming felt relaxed and his overall strength soared.
Of course, the consumption is not low either, totaling 4.2 million metal energies.
And this is not the end, he also needs to master the [Evolution of the Gale Lord] which costs 800,000. Its ability can assist him in developing gene seeds, and it is not a data blessing, it can be superimposed.
And [Crimson Meditation Crown - B-level: Meditation Crystal Advanced Product
…
Control effect: Development speed boost - 400%
Mastery Ability - Meditation: You can practice in a meditative state and increase your development speed by 800%.
In this way, the development system will be strengthened thirty times, because after becoming a C-level life form, the severely weakened development speed will be greatly increased.
Instead, he could pay attention to the theory of evolution. Because of the data superposition, each individual C-class gene radiator could only provide a 2-fold development speed boost. He made a mental note of this.
These two things consumed another 1.6 million of his metal energy, and the metal energy he had just obtained only left him with 3 million metal energy for emergencies.
After another quick glance, he found that the items he frequently used had been basically upgraded, but the remaining shoes, super electromagnetic sniper rifle, various auxiliary items, etc. had not been strengthened with mother ore and could not be upgraded for the time being. He could only go to the Land of Stars to look for mother ore.
"After turning the exoskeleton into a guard, I'm still missing a main combat control device. Bai Ye's mechanical spear looks pretty good." Li Ming thought to himself and fell in love with it at first sight.
Next, Li Ming was no longer in a hurry, but instead started developing genetic seeds here.
Yaluo, who was in another cave, was waiting anxiously. He sneaked over to take a look and was immediately stunned.
"Fuck, ancestors, is it time to develop genetic seeds now? You are too bold!" Yaluo couldn't help but say.
"We are of different generations." Li Ming opened his eyes.
"Although this is a thunderstorm area and seems safe, they all have support. Sera's fleet and the Star Hunters can send a large number of people here." Yaluo said helplessly.
"Even though it seems like they're the only two, if we wait any longer, we'll still have nowhere to escape."
"Don't worry." Li Ming shook his head, and Ya Luo looked anxious.
Another day passed, and Li Ming did not wait for Yaluo's outburst, but found that Yaluo had given up, lying on the ground, neither annoyed nor angry, and sometimes even showing a weird smile.
Time on this planet cannot be calculated by the rotation of stars, it can only be calculated by the time of smart terminals.
Boom!
The thunderstorm continued that day. Li Ming suddenly stood up, which scared Yaluo.
"You wait here, I'm going out for a while." Li Ming's eyes flashed slightly, and after leaving a word, he quickly disappeared from here.
Before Yaluo could reply, he opened his mouth, closed it again, and turned over.
…
"Handle the situation properly and don't reveal your true identity!"
On the rocky land, Neil called out to the others and quickly put the corpses in front of him into various positions, specially using electromagnetic weapons to burn scorch marks, as if he was familiar with the process.
"You scumbag plunderer, you still want to cooperate with us?" Neil sneered, dealt with it in a few minutes, and then hurried away with his people.
Not long after they left, Li Ming came here and looked at the corpses on the ground, especially those that were burned by electricity, and soon realized -
"Are they imitating me? Attacking the looters and then throwing the blame at me?"
Li Ming frowned slightly. What was Bai Ye doing? Shouldn't he be their target?
You've started killing each other before you even found any trace of me?
His expression flickered. Although he had undergone an upgrade, it was still unwise to face two B-level life forms at the same time.
Especially those warships in the sky, he couldn't withstand a round of main gun fire.
"It has to be a method..." He quietly left.
………
The small aircraft landed, the hatch opened, and Duke Bai Ye walked out and looked around.
Several plunderers were kneeling on the ground, their faces terrified. Neil whispered, "Your Excellency, they said they did see a lifeform with a single golden eye on the spaceship."
Bai Ye nodded and came to the front of these people. Neil said in a deep voice: "You guys, repeat what you just said to His Excellency the Duke!"
"Yes..." Several people spoke hurriedly: "It's the lower prison of the Scaled Serpent. We captured people and put them in there. That day..."
Duke Bai Ye listened, his heart moving slightly. His biological intuition made him turn his head suddenly, and then his pupils contracted. He saw a flowing shadow approaching him at a very fast speed.
Not good! He was startled, a surge of cold air rushed out, and in a flash, he instantly crossed the last few dozen meters, even faster than the speed he ran away that day.
The giant mechanical sword with golden-blue light has been raised, and arcs of electricity burst out.
Bai Ye was horrified. It was too late for him to grab his weapon or avoid it.
clang!
In a flash, Duke Bai Ye's left hand suddenly turned into ice crystals emitting cold air, and his entire arm was twisted in an extremely incredible way, blocking his body.
Then, cold air gushed out of his other hand, and the temperature dropped rapidly, trying to block the enemy's attack.
At the same time, cold icy fog lingered around his body, spreading layer by layer, as if he was wearing a real silver armor.
As long as he blocks this attack, he can take out his weapon and fight back.
This person's speed was too fast, but he didn't believe that the other party's lethality was so amazing!
Snap!
As if struck by lightning, Duke Bai Ye's eyes suddenly turned red and his heart was pounding.
The moment of contact, the outer ice armor was shattered by the mechanical sword.
“Can’t stop it!”
Duke Bai Ye's eyes were wide open with anger, his heart was filled with horror, and he felt a sharp pain. The ice crystals in his arms were also shattered.
"The power is indeed not strong, but the ion sword is too lethal. I can't block it with my physical body alone." Many thoughts flashed through Duke Bai Ye's mind.
He had expected the opponent's strength, but with the help of speed and the power of the weapon, he still managed to cut off his arm.
But then, the white mechanical spear in his hand also unfolded, and the cold air spread across more than ten meters, like an angry ice dragon, rushing straight towards the enemy who missed the attack and immediately withdrew!
"Die!"
As expected, it is a B-class life form in its prime.
Li Ming was moved. Even with the use of [Thunder Frenzy], with the blessing of [Justice Armguard], [Fellowes Armor], [Super Electromagnetic Sniper Rifle], [Magnetic Boots], etc., he had already achieved 49 times the blessing of thunder element.
If you use [Space Flash] to launch a sneak attack, you can only do this.
"I can't fight."
Li Ming felt cold all over. If he used all his fighting strength, he might be able to fight.
But Li Ming's goal is not to fight to the death. If it becomes a protracted battle and Sera's warships gather around, it will be troublesome.
Before the icy cold air could reach him, he had already disappeared from the spot.
With the blessing of his speed and the [Space Flash], he could move forward and backward freely. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from Duke Bai Ye's sight.
"There are enemies!" It was not until this moment that the Jingwei beside him reacted, shouted loudly, and quickly formed a formation.
Duke Bai Ye's body has expanded to three meters. His whole body seems to be made up of piles of white stones, emitting a cold aura. He is obviously some kind of special creature, and he is also preparing for genetic liberation.
This is the contradiction between genetic liberation and combat armor. In many cases, the two are incompatible.
When the liberation was halfway done, the enemy ran away. Duke Bai Ye was shocked and angry. Although the opponent's frontal killing power was not enough, with the B-level weapon, it was enough to cause fatal damage to him.
In addition, the opponent's speed and freedom of movement made him extremely threatening.
"But, what exactly is that..." Duke Bai Ye released the gene liberation, and the scene of the enemy suddenly appearing in front of him kept lingering in his mind. Even if the speed was faster, it couldn't be that fast.
"Spatial ability..."
This thought emerged in his mind, and then he was shocked and subconsciously didn't believe it. Spatial ability was too rare, and once it was acquired, it would be extremely terrifying.
He couldn't believe that he was so unlucky to meet someone with spatial abilities here.
"Maybe it's some kind of extremely amazing jumping ability." He comforted himself again. The other party was obviously a genetically evolved person with a tendency towards speed, so it was not surprising that he had this ability.
The Sera people around were horrified. They had also witnessed the opponent's speed. If the opponent's target was not only the Duke, they would probably find it difficult to react to how they died.
"We must be careful." Looking at his broken arm, Duke Bai Ye's expression was extremely gloomy.
…
On the Scaled Serpent, Tro came hurriedly with a grim expression: "Boss, several more brothers have been killed."
Atom's expression was gloomy as he listened to Tro's report. "It's the same injuries. The body is charred. I'm afraid it was that guy who did it."
Atom's snake eyes were fierce, and Trott looked indignant. "Why do we always run into them? We are so unlucky."
"Yeah, it's really unlucky." Atom's eyes were dim. "That guy didn't hide well, but instead kept hunting our people. And every time there were a few charred corpses."
"Yeah..." Trott agreed, not reacting at first, then asking suspiciously, "What do you mean?"
"I mean, why didn't any of his Sera people die!" Atum said with a cold expression.
"What!" Tro's eyes widened before he realized, "You mean, that guy is cooperating with the Sera people?"
Atom stared at him coldly: "What I mean is, if my officers weren't almost dead, I would tear your stupid head off."
"Cooperation, why does he need to cooperate with the Sera people?"
"This is all the work of the Sera people themselves!" Atum shouted angrily. This time he was really unlucky.
He only has five C-level life forms under his command. The slightly smarter Yaluo betrayed him, and Ruby and Luka were both killed. Now there are only two left, which is a heavy loss.
That's why he was reluctant to leave, always wanting to get some benefits.
"Ah? Those damned Sera people!" Trott shuddered and said, "Should we just go and kill them?"
"Kill your mother!" Atom gritted his teeth. "Let that guy hiding in the dark take advantage of you?"
At this moment, a strange voice suddenly sounded in the channel: "Hello, hello..."
Trotello glanced down and said in surprise, "Boss, Ruby's frequency band."
"It's you. How dare you contact me?" Atom reacted quickly, his tone indifferent.
"Since we have a common enemy, why can't we contact each other?" Li Ming chuckled.
"Common enemy?" Atom's expression flickered. "What do you mean?"
"I wasn't the one who killed those people you saw recently. I have a video of it."
While asking someone to locate the location, Atom received the file and when he opened it, he couldn't help but snort coldly.
"Not surprised? It seems you guessed it too." The voice was intermittent and seriously interrupted.
"Just tell me what you want to do." Atom said in a deep voice.
"It's simple. Cooperation. I just ambushed Duke Bai Ye. He's missing an arm now, and his combat effectiveness has been severely reduced." Li Ming said, "Why don't we cooperate and work together to take down Duke Bai Ye."
"Huh?" Atom looked surprised. "You seriously injured him?"
There was no response, only a video that seemed to be shot from a distance. When zoomed in, it was Duke Bai Ye with a gloomy expression, holding a white spear, and missing an arm.
Atom's heart skipped a beat. Duke Bai Ye's strength might even be above his, and he also had weapons specially made for him by the Sera civilization.
This guy actually chopped off one of my arms.
"How did you do it?" he couldn't help but ask.
"In one word, quick." There was a hint of laughter in the voice. Atom thought to himself that this person didn't seem nervous at all and was very confident about escaping. Not only that, he also wanted to kill Duke Bai Ye.
"What benefits can I get from cooperating with you?" Atom asked tentatively.
"You don't have to die." Li Ming said lightly.
"Heh..." Atom scoffed. Before he could respond, he heard the other party continue, "Just kidding. After we defeat him together, he'll be yours."
"For a B-level life form, the Sera civilization would probably be willing to spend a lot of money to redeem it."
Atom's heart was moved. He glanced at the gestures made by his men and had already located the other party. He said calmly: "Give me half of the goods you have, and I will agree to it."
"Haha..." Li Ming laughed: "Impossible, join forces with me to defeat Duke Bai Ye, and you still have a chance to recover your losses."
"Otherwise, when the support from the Sera civilization arrives, you'll be in trouble. After all, you have..."
Before he could finish his words, Atom's face darkened. The other party also knew about the existence of the man with golden eyes.
At the same time, this suddenly gave him an idea. Could it be that Duke Bai Ye also attacked and killed him because of the golden-eyed man?
As he was pondering this, he caught a glimpse of his subordinate's gesture from the corner of his eye, and when he looked up, he saw that the other party's position was completely different from the original one.
The speed is too fast!
"Okay, I promise you." Atom seemed to have made up his mind. "What are your plans?"
"To avoid ambushing Duke Bai Ye and causing a riot in the Sera fleet, you need to lure him into a thunderstorm area and tell him you've spotted me." Li Ming had a plan in mind. "By then, I'll reveal some of my whereabouts."
"Okay." Atom nodded involuntarily. "That's very thoughtful. Let's follow your plan. Remember, Duke Bai Ye must be spared in the end."
"It's a pleasure to work with you." The last sentence came from the channel.
After the communication ended, Trott said cautiously, "Boss, do you really want to cooperate with this guy?"
Atom didn't say anything, just waved his hand to tell Tro to get out, and then turned on the smart terminal.
Let me explain to all the bosses that I usually code about 90% of the code the day before, and then go over it on the way to work the next day and during lunch to fill in the details and make modifications.
I have been busy with work recently and my time has been compressed a lot, so the update is a bit late. I'm sorry.
