Chapter 271: Take stock of your own plans for the future. Is there anyone who can help you?
"cooperate."
The three of them looked at each other, and Cornett remained noncommittal. "How do we cooperate?"
"Of course it's about joint development and win-win situations," Benny said calmly, "but there are too many people involved in this matter now."
"What do you mean?" Fernando was puzzled.
Benny said bluntly: "Those people from Qinglong are useless and will only cause us trouble."
"You want to attack them?" Keweisi laughed sarcastically. "Where do you get your ability from? You want us to be your thugs?"
Cornett shook his head. "We still need Qinglong to make a sublimator, or... do you have the relevant blueprints?"
Benny ignored Corvis. "Unfortunately, a lot of the core data was almost lost during the exile."
"Qinglong needs your help..."
"Wait..." Corvez interrupted Benny again, "Look at how arrogant you are here. What can prove that what you said is true?"
"Huber, he has sublimation particles in his body." Benny said calmly.
Kovis sat up straight in an instant. Fernand was surprised and looked at Connit.
The sublimation particles they had tried so hard to obtain but suffered heavy losses were now right before their eyes?
Cornett took a deep breath. These guys were really not easy to deal with.
Then, Benny said, "I'm not afraid of you just snatching me away. The conditions for using the Sublimation Source Crystal are extremely harsh, and the interior of the core ruins is extremely complicated. You might be able to get in with Huber's help, but you'll never achieve your true goal."
Cornett said in a deep voice: "Go on, Qinglong is not easy to fool."
"Ha..." Benny laughed. "He's not just hard to fool, he's incredibly smart. A few days ago, because the sublimator manufacturing progress was stalled, I was a little anxious, but he noticed it and kept asking questions."
"However, I've been telling him these past few days that the sublimator's production is only 20% complete. We still need to resolve a core node and two crucial issues."
"But actually, I've already solved one of the problematic particle actuators. The only thing left is the focusing crystal coefficient."
"He's been hiding it for a while, just waiting for a good price. All you need to do is raise the price a little, then ask him to prove it and solve the crystal coefficient."
"The rest is not a problem."
It’s too dark. This thought suddenly occurred to the three people at the same time.
Benny started plotting against Qinglong as early as when Deyes mysteriously disappeared.
Cornett's eyes narrowed slightly as he suddenly thought, "If Deyes hadn't disappeared and the sublimator had been successfully manufactured, what was your original plan?"
"There's no need to discuss the original plan now." Benny shook his head. "Once the sublimator is completed, you can take action against Qinglong, Jessia, Theo and the others."
When this was mentioned, the three of them fell silent again.
It sounds easy to say "take action", but except for Sandro, who among that group of people is a simple person?
Before Qinglong's eight nano-energy cannons appeared, it would cost a considerable price to suppress those people.
Qinglong's eight energy cannons fired out, and it would definitely be a problem to replace one of them, but the price to pay was too high.
"Can't you offer any help?" Fernand demanded.
"Are you willing to let me reveal your coordinates?" Benny asked back, and Fernand choked.
"Let me think about it..." Cornett hesitated. Benny shook his head. "It's easy if you don't want to kill them. The price you should pay will be taken from your share."
"Defeat them one by one, ambush, lure and kill, there is always a way."
Cornett paced back and forth, unable to make a decision. He passed over various ideas one by one, but could hardly find any effective method.
Try to divide and conquer?
He shook his head subconsciously. The sudden disappearance of Deyes, a guy who had almost become a tool, could cause a strong reaction from those people, forcing him to give an explanation.
Not to mention killing one person, they are all smart people and will join forces no matter what.
Just as I was thinking about it, the smart terminal in my arms vibrated slightly. I walked to the corner and opened it. It was a message reminder only for high-star users of the Black Hole Network.
When he clicked on the Black Hole Network page, Connet's calm expression suddenly changed. The pop-up window was an ordinary communication link.
But the person who initiated this communication link was no ordinary person.
The Glowing Saint - Wendel!
This account is the black hole network account passed down from generation to generation by the leaders of the Torch Organization, and it has many contacts.
But this one is the most special.
Because more than two hundred years ago, when the Torch Organization suffered destruction, it was this person or the organization behind him who extended a helping hand.
The flower of hope, the light that leads to freedom, the beacon of the stars, the place where the free men rest - the Holy Revolutionary Army.
The Glowing Saint - Wendel, is one of the saints of the Revolutionary Army and has led large-scale wars against many resistance organizations.
It is even said that the reason why the Torch Organization knew that there was a dimensional rift here was because of this person.
At this moment, many speculations arose in Cornett's mind. He calmed down a little and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, wait a moment..."
After saying that, he left in a hurry without waiting for an answer. Benny watched him leave with a frown on his face, looking a little unhappy. What else could be more important than what he was saying now?
Coming to a quiet room, Cornett subconsciously locked the door, took a deep breath, and then chose to answer the call.
"Sir Wendell." Cornett tried to make his voice sound neither humble nor arrogant.
"Torch Organization leader, Cornett?" Wendell said calmly, "I think we spoke sixty-four years ago."
"Yes, you gave me very valuable advice back then regarding the Balestrate Massacre." Konnit nodded. "You contacted me suddenly this time because...?"
"An Ye has contacted you, right?" Wendel went straight to the point.
"An Ye..." Cornett was stunned. There had been so many things going on recently that he almost forgot the name.
When it was suddenly brought up at this moment, a sense of enlightenment came to my mind, and I immediately understood how the powerful life form who dared to assassinate Grand Duke Gu Ya could have my contact information.
"He contacted you individually, but you didn't respond. So he asked me to be his middleman. I'm willing to hire you for free in exchange for letting him know your exact coordinates so he can come and look for Azure Dragon."
"A free hire?" Cornett's breathing paused slightly, and he suppressed his excitement and asked, "Can you please tell me why he is looking for Qinglong?"
"I don't know the specific situation. I'm just a middleman. If you want to agree, just contact him directly." Wendel said vaguely.
Connit's mind raced. What could an assassin do by looking for Qinglong?
He had guessed last time, kill or kidnap?
Is Qinglong's real enemy about to surface?
With Wendel as the middleman, Cornett felt reassured. He hesitated and said, "You should know our coordinates, right?"
"I won't tell anyone without your consent," Wendell said calmly. "We are the enforcers of free will."
Cornett let out a breath. The sudden appearance of An Ye was like timely help.
Qinglong, Theo and his group are definitely no match for this legendary assassin.
"I can promise him, but not now. He needs to wait for a while." Cornett pondered and waited until the sublimator was almost finished before letting the other party come, which would be just the right time to solve the problem at hand.
"I'm just delivering the message and acting as an intermediary guarantor. You can contact him directly." Wendel refused.
"I understand, thank you." Cornett nodded respectfully. When he raised his head, the communication had ended. He exhaled and clenched his fists.
In the room, Benny saw Cornett coming back and couldn't help but frowned and said, "What else could be more important than now..."
Cornett straightened his back, his spirit and energy seemed completely different. He interrupted in a deep voice, "Just as you say."
Benny paused, and Fernand and Corvis also looked over, stunned and surprised.
…
Two days later, the entire core laboratory was packed up and moved onto the "Coyle".
This is the first main ship to be assembled, and it only needs the main gun to be installed.
It was originally a combat-type main ship, but because its main guns were replaced, it was simply used as an ultra-large transport ship.
There are also more than a thousand warships of various types escorting the "Coyle" to its designated destination.
Because the scale of this trip is so large, the cost of using space worms for long-distance transmission is too high, so we can only leave here by normal jump navigation.
On the upper deck of the main ship, in the room where Li Ming was, the familiar light of jump was visible outside the porthole.
He was taking out his daily necessities from the box, such as toothbrush, towel, clothes, etc., and placing them neatly one by one.
After packing up, Li Ming couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction and nodded secretly.
Then he took out the [Magnetic Crystal Heavy Domain] and expanded the gravity field to develop the gene seed.
Half a month has passed since Deyes disappeared.
His development progress has been steadily increasing and has now reached 41%. According to estimates, by the time the Red River Star Stream reaches its tidal period, it will definitely exceed 60%.
"We're getting closer. I should think about the A-level gene seed. It's not going to be easy."
Li Ming was thinking in his mind that it has always been his good habit to prepare for a rainy day.
At the level of A-level life forms, the destructive power is quite astonishing, so the control is extremely strict and the deployment is even more complicated.
Even for advanced civilizations, every leaked A-grade gene seed must be subject to strict scrutiny.
If they are not one of us, or if it can bring them considerable benefits, we will never give it away easily.
"Even for the Torch Organization, it is difficult to obtain A-level gene seeds easily. I heard that they were preparing for that Ted two years ago, but there has been no news until now." Li Ming pondered.
"The requirements for preparing A-grade gene seeds are extremely stringent, and there are only a few channels..."
"It would be strange if they didn't give it to us without signing a thirty-year slave treaty."
"Tsk..." Li Ming frowned, feeling a little tricky, "How about we rob it?"
However, given the preciousness of A-level gene seeds, even advanced civilizations like the Itlan civilization do not have them.
Basically, you submit an application, then develop a deployment plan based on the requirements, and then capture the A-level creatures.
The process requires a considerable amount of manpower and material resources, and if no one uses it, it is a waste of resources.
"Probably only imperial civilizations have stocks. Going to rob them? It's like asking for death..." Li Ming shook his head, unable to think of a solution for the time being. "If it really doesn't work, I can only let the Black Hole Network sell it. But the Black Hole Network doesn't support customization, and based on past experience, the goods are not good."
He shook his head helplessly and opened the control page again. Of the seven regular main combat control items, three have been upgraded to A-level, namely [Justice Arm Armor], [Vortex Shadow], and [Felos Mecha].
[Silver-gray particles] belong to the special auxiliary type, while [Tank Guard Mecha] is the materialization type.
As for the controlled objects, there are still four left: [Mechanical Sub-Heart], [Heavy Mechanical Shield], [Thunder-Type Buckled Arm Armor] and [Flame-Type Buckled Arm Armor].
The upper limit of improvement is still very large. A rough estimate shows that it will take about 38 million metal energies to upgrade all of them to level A.
And now, he has less than seven million left.
"Alas..." Li Ming sighed again, but he was not angry. As the main energy consumption, it would be strange when metal energy would be enough.
After gaining a brief understanding of his current situation, Li Ming pondered, "When I have time, I'll go check where those dimensional crystals are hidden."
Seven or eight hours later, Cornett summoned many great mechanics.
Li Ming is usually in silent mode, and it was Jessiah who came to call him specifically.
"Progress has been stagnant for days, and Cornett can't stand it any longer."
On the way, Jessiah talked as he walked. The corridor of the warship was a bit narrow and could barely accommodate two people walking side by side.
Occasionally, when they met people, they had to step aside. Those who could board this main ship had some status within the Torch Organization. Seeing Qinglong's courtesy, most of them were terrified.
Li Ming said casually: "There's nothing we can do about it. The technology is difficult, and we can only hone it slowly over time."
Jesseia remained noncommittal. On this main ship, the Torch Organization had no way of completely isolating them from an isolation zone, so the signal was still blocked.
The laboratory in the main ship was built by connecting several adjacent rooms.
Benny had already started working. Seeing them arrive, Cornett said, "There's still about a month left until the Red Star Stream's tidal period. This sublimator is just one step away from being successfully manufactured."
"You are all great mechanics. You can't be unable to work without Deyes, right?"
"Alas." Li Ming sighed pretentiously, "I'm not up to the task."
Cornett's mouth twitched, and he didn't want to say more, so he said, "Sir Qinglong, please follow me."
Li Ming raised his eyebrows and followed Connet out of the room. He came straight to the point and said, "Sir Qinglong, there's no need to be so secretive. Just tell me what your conditions are."
"I know you have a way to solve the technical difficulties facing the sublimator."
"Hmm..." Li Ming pondered, without further ado, he spoke directly: "I want an A-grade gene seed."
Cornett's mouth twitched fiercely, and he said coldly: "Are you asking for too much?"
Grade A gene seeds? How dare you ask for it? Regardless of the value of Grade A gene seeds, this matter has absolutely nothing to do with gene seeds.
