Chapter 399 No one can stop my evolution!
"Tsk..." Li Ming thought, this time is a bit long, but it's better than nothing.
"That's troublesome." He nodded and watched Ford leave.
"If we buy through normal channels, we'll need at least 150 billion star coins to get the 2 billion metal energies. Ethlan can come up with 100 billion, and Trevor might be able to squeeze in a bit..."
"Let Ulrich borrow some money in the name of turnover." Li Ming pondered. "He shouldn't refuse. It's the Royal Court that's running out of money. We've squeezed out a lot of money in the past six months, and they even made a lot of extra things I need."
After estimating for a while, he felt helpless and thought that he would not be able to control the infinite hammer before taking action.
…
"Qinglong...Qinglong..."
In the city, a foul hot wind blows towards you, and noisy shouts hit your ears roughly.
What lies before us are messy stone streets, backward town planning and natives dressed in primitive clothes, all looking at the figures walking on the street with strange eyes.
This guy seemed out of place with the surroundings. His skin was silvery white and reflected a metallic luster. They had never seen such a race before.
Someone has already notified the guards in the city, and heavily armored soldiers are marching in groups, causing the ground to shake more and more.
“The Sea of Stars—the Serrotta Star Ring—the Kass Star Cluster—the Wind Source Galaxy—the Planet Porto—the Holy Kingdom of Ganger…” The carrier of the creator of the divine craftsman raised his head.
This is an ignorant civilization that has not even reached the level of interstellar contact, but has been forcibly pulled into interstellar civilization.
The rulers of the civilization chose a protective treaty and refused to accept any support. The citizens in the country were not even aware of the existence of the interstellar space.
"*%@." The guards around made gibberish sounds. The Creator was too lazy to translate. He stretched out his mechanical finger and shot out a beam of bright blue laser. With a random sweep, the entire street was cut in half.
Green blood gushed out, and miserable wails were heard everywhere.
The God of Creation didn't seem to care. He squatted down and looked carefully at the flesh and blood of those living creatures. There were buds of flesh emerging from the cracks, twisting and looking hideous and terrifying.
"Alchemical life, it's really like this..." The creator was not surprised. Wind and waves surged around, and a life form with blood-red wings on its back fell from the sky. The wings were several meters wide, and the edges of the wings flashed with a cold light.
Every feather on the wings was flowing with thick blood and exuding a heart-pounding scent.
"Mechanical?" The other party seemed surprised, then said in a deep voice, "According to the Interstellar Alliance's protective treaty, extraterrestrial life is not allowed to interfere with this civilization."
"A-level life form, I finally found a slightly larger fish." The Creator God looked up and sighed.
"Hmm?" The blood-winged creature felt something was wrong and did not attack at the first moment. Instead, it turned around and ran away.
The blood wings flapped, and he turned into a ray of light.
However, the next moment, the sky seemed to be split open by a giant with a huge axe, and the clouds shattered.
Immediately afterwards, a series of hexagonal metal columns emerged, with dazzling beams of light shooting out from the front.
It was like a precisely designed cage, locking onto the living being that was desperately trying to escape with perfect accuracy.
In an instant, a strong burst of light and energy burst out, and the space was buzzing.
The life form was trapped by the beam of light, and its wings were pierced.
"ah--"
He let out a miserable wail, and his blood-red wings were burned, emitting green smoke.
"You, who are you!" He looked terrified.
"Let me see what you know." The God of Creation stretched out his hand, and crystal needles extended from his fingertips, and then suddenly inserted them into the opponent's head.
The wailing became more intense, and the mechanical pupils of the creator kept flickering.
"Alchemical experiment...Guardian...alchemical material..." The God of Creation frowned and suddenly let go of the other's head, which was already dying.
"Has his skills reached this level? A-level life forms are only considered caretakers."
This A-level life form doesn't know much, only that this entire planet is an alchemical testing ground and all life forms are born from alchemical materials.
His task is to guard and deal with those deformed life forms and see how many times these alchemical life forms can iterate in the natural environment.
This is not good news. Levenbeck has begun to explore the nature of life and even to create things.
“He really walked this path.”
The God of Creation felt that the situation was difficult and he thought of Qinglong. He was shocked when he met him last time, and the other party's existence was very strange. He did not get any useful information.
This made him more suspicious that the other person was Levenbaker.
No trace of the Azure Dragon was found, but Levenback was unexpectedly discovered. The God of Creation could not convince himself that the two had nothing to do with each other.
"Could it be that... Li Ming is also a product of his alchemy?" He couldn't help but speculate, feeling a little anxious. "He's been dormant for so many years, and now he suddenly emerges, ready to take revenge on me?"
…
"Of course I want to explore the supreme path of evolution."
In the bright experiment, the Alchemist Baron, also known as Levenbeck, held the blood seed in his hand, a hint of fanaticism flashed in his green pupils, and his movements were as gentle as if he was treating his lover.
His mind was constantly thinking: "Alchemical substances can create A-level, S-level, and even X-level life forms, but they can only be used once, and their lifespan will be severely shortened. Using them a second time will cause deformation."
"X-level experimental subjects are extremely rare in the world. If Ryan can successfully evolve into an ultimate life form, my alchemy journey will be more than halfway accomplished."
"As long as we are sure that the alchemical material is impeccable in terms of evolution, the next step is stability."
Thinking of this, Levenbeck couldn't help but lick his lips. "Level 60 development potential, a nearly perfect cosmic creature. Only such a life form can make alchemical substances become perfect alchemical substances!"
His body was trembling slightly, and every time he thought of it, he couldn't stop trembling.
Perfect alchemical material was the ultimate pursuit of that ancient civilization. Unfortunately, they failed to achieve it until alchemy got out of control, leading to the destruction of civilization.
Only high-potential life forms born naturally in the universe, with their nearly perfect genetic structure, can make up for the shortcomings of alchemical substances.
"Level 60 development potential, a treasure, truly a treasure of the universe..." He kept praising it. Compared to the perfection of the universe, his alchemical substances were just a poor imitation.
But his alchemical substances are constantly making up for their shortcomings, and he believes that one day, they will be able to replace and even become the "universe"!
"It's just..." Levenbeck's eyes became silent again. When he thought of Li Ming, he inevitably connected him to Qinglong, the mysterious master craftsman, who made him feel the greatest fear.
He thought he had hidden himself deeply enough, but he didn't expect that there were people in the interstellar space who hid deeper than him.
There is almost no trace of the existence of this master craftsman, and some intelligence claims that the apparent Li Ming is just the bait released by Qinglong, and no one knows who he is trying to catch.
The first to be deceived was the Holy Mother Church, and they paid a heavy price for it.
"The degeneration virus...is simply unbelievable." Levenbeck remembered the S-class life form that had turned into a half-tree in the Holy Mother Church laboratory.
At that time, he was not only amazed, but also very excited, and secretly stole her body substances and took them away.
He has unparalleled knowledge of biotechnology and believes that he can replicate Qinglong's terrible virus and use it as a deterrent.
After several months of research, he became even more alarmed about Qinglong, because he could not find any evidence of the existence of the virus.
If the development potential of the S-level life form had not disappeared without a trace, he would even doubt that the virus did not exist at all.
This made him extremely wary of Qinglong, so he did not dare to attack Li Ming head-on.
The most troublesome thing is that because of Qinglong's existence, many forces, both overt and covert, are conducting large-scale screening and mobilizing their own intelligence personnel.
As a result, various intelligence organizations in the interstellar space have spread like crazy over the past six months.
Qinglong didn't find out, but he was almost caught anyway.
He had already realized that someone had discovered his activities and was secretly investigating.
This forced him to show up and find Prince Ryan, wanting to conduct experiments on him, but also because the other party was Qinglong's enemy.
"At least I'm still in the dark, so I have a certain degree of initiative." Levenback thought, "As long as I succeed, Ryan will definitely force Qinglong out."
A gust of wind and waves hit him, and he staggered suddenly and almost fell.
A cold voice came from behind: "Not ready yet? Why wasted so much time?"
"Okay, okay." Levenbeck said hurriedly, looking extremely humble, and quickly packed the blood seed into a box.
………
"Fifty billion shouldn't be a problem, right?" Ford asked cautiously, looking at the dark screen in front of him.
He knew that this year's fiscal deficit had soared by several percentage points because of the impact of the war.
"Fifty billion..." Asmara's voice came from the screen, and after a moment's silence, "Tell him that I will provide him with high-quality metal materials worth one hundred billion star coins."
"One hundred billion?" Ford was shocked. "Are you sure? You don't have the final say in the royal family. In the past few months, you have applied for over eighty billion in funding. Did they approve the twenty billion you submitted before I came?"
"You're not trying to deceive him, are you?" Ford suddenly thought and said hurriedly, "The consequences will be serious."
"I understand better than you and will naturally fulfill my promise." Asmara said calmly.
"How are you going to fulfill it?" Ford still didn't quite believe it. Now that Li Ming was framed, it might help with the blood sacrifice incident, but the consequences would be serious.
"Have you forgotten who we are working for now?" Asmara asked back.
Ford paused, his expression becoming very interesting, "Prince Ryan?"
"Yes, I plan to hint to those civilizations that have announced their aid to us that it shouldn't be difficult to squeeze something out of each of them in the name of Prince Ryan," said Asmara.
Ford's expression flickered, and he raised his eyebrows at first, but soon fell silent. After a long time, he said in a deep voice: "Although you did this, it is very easy for me to explain."
"But I still have to remind you that His Excellency Qinglong's influence doesn't extend here. We are too close to the empire, and civilization must continue here."
This kind of behavior cannot be hidden, and there will always be a reckoning afterwards.
"Even if the radiation doesn't reach here, it can still serve as a fallback route," Asmara said calmly. "I'll sync the coordinates of that group with you later. That's all."
Ford hesitated to speak, feeling that Asmara was increasingly strange. This phenomenon had been going on for a while, and although there was no stimulation, her behavior had changed drastically.
………
"It has been confirmed that the opponent's small fleet is currently secretly docked in the Nanfeng Galaxy and has just placed a few vampires." Ford had a star map in his hand and was reporting to Li Ming.
"They also bleed the seeds themselves?" Li Ming asked in surprise.
Ford shook his head. "Their main role is to secretly help us win some wars. Bloodletting is just a casual act."
"The entire Corona Borealis ring is too big, and there aren't that many stargates. They can only open two or three per month."
"Is that weirdo here?" A gleam of light flashed in Li Ming's eyes.
"That weirdo has been following us." Ford nodded, not understanding why Li Ming was so concerned about that weirdo.
"Okay, let's go." Li Ming stood up immediately. Even if he didn't have the infinite hammer, two portions of [Super Divine Power] should be enough.
As long as the strength of the weirdo suspected to be Levenbaker does not exceed expectations.
"So hasty?" Ford's eyebrows jumped, and he couldn't help but ask, "Just rushing in like this, without any plan of step by step?"
"Step by step?" Li Ming shook his head. "Once we're done with our strategic moves and they're all done, we can just kill the culprit."
"Let's set off first, and we'll talk about plans and stuff on the way."
Of course, the most crucial thing is that he wants to become an S-level life form, and no one can stop him.
So simple and crude?
Ford was still a little uncomfortable, and as if he suddenly remembered, he added: "Oh, that 50 billion star coins..."
Before he finished speaking, Li Ming looked over and frowned slightly. Is there still difficulty with 50 billion?
"...it has become 100 billion..." Ford said, and it was rare to see a confused expression on Li Ming's face, "Huh?"
Li Ming was surprised: "One hundred billion? What's going on?"
"Asmara is preparing to hint to other civilizations..." Ford explained again.
"What courage." After hearing this, Li Ming couldn't help but give a thumbs-up and praised, "As expected of Princess Asmara."
After that, he added, "Just because of your courage, the royal court will always keep its doors open to you."
This is exactly what Ford was waiting for. Because of Gabriel's death, this group of people had to pretend to obey but actually disobey.
To be honest, if Gabriel hadn't died.
Ford guessed that Asmara and his father Baijan, or even himself, might not resist Prince Ryan's arrangements.
Unfortunately, there is no if. Ford collected his thoughts and added, "However, because of this, the integration may take longer.
Li Ming nodded. Before this operation, he definitely couldn't control the Infinite Hammer.
He had anticipated this and didn't mind it. He still followed the original plan, said a simple farewell to Luochuan, and then Liuying left Jingnan and headed straight for the Nanfeng Galaxy.
