Chapter 408: Twenty-two billion metal energies!
He felt a little strange. Levenbeck was at least at the Divine Craftsman level, and was good at life science and technology.
But the final reaction can be described as "fear".
However, the more Levenbaker frightened him, the better it was for him.
It’s best to be so scared that you can’t move...
The humanoid vampire stood in the center, his face filled with confusion and bewilderment, not understanding what had just happened.
Li Ming waved his hand, and the blood species turned into an egg again, and then was collected into his control space.
Li Ming asked the mechanical body to collect the body left by Levenbeck and turned around to leave the mine.
Levenbeck was scared off, and now that the metal was almost in place, it was time for him to leave.
We returned on the aircraft and said goodbye to Mr. Yang. Although the old man was reluctant to leave, he didn't say much, but just asked him to be careful.
As for Yang Peng and Li Ning, Li Ming just sent them a message casually, then boarded the Liuying and headed towards the Itlan civilization.
At the same time, a huge palace made of flesh and blood sat firmly on a piece of "earth". The surface of the palace was covered with black scales shaped like armor, which moved with a certain rhythm, like regular breathing.
With every "breath", a faint blood-colored mist seeps out from the gaps between the scales and permeates the surrounding air.
Each one was as red as blood, pulsating non-stop like a beating living heart, spinning endlessly around the hall.
Chains as thick as blood vessels penetrated deeply into the "ground" below the hall.
The stars around are passing by, and it seems that they are always sailing. If you zoom out a little, you will be surprised to find that.
This strange palace of flesh and blood is actually located on the body of a star beast that is so huge that it is beyond imagination. It is like a moving continent, and its skin is as rough as a mountain range.
A mysterious energy shone through the veins, and the Flesh Temple on its back was like an insignificant speck.
In the hall, the scarlet throne of flesh and blood seemed to have life, with countless tiny flesh buds clinging to the living being sitting on it.
Slowly interweaving and merging, the lower body has completely merged with the throne of flesh and blood. The blood vessels and meridians are intertwined with each other, and it is impossible to tell whether they are the veins of the throne or the blood vessels of the body, presenting a creepy symbiotic state.
The tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and a strong breath of life surged out like an overwhelming force, and the throne squirmed faster and faster.
"Qinglong!"
Levenbeck let out a terrifying cry, his hoarse voice echoing in the empty hall, then turned into a low murmur: "Forging Hammer..."
Until this moment, he still couldn't calm down. The scene of the blood race turning into a human form kept flashing before his eyes.
It had been a long time since he had felt this kind of fear and anxiety that penetrated deep into his bones. Looking at the familiar environment around him, he gradually calmed down.
"Blood species transformation. Qinglong already knew my identity and gave me a big surprise." Levenbeck's face was grim, and he fell into deep thought.
"However, since he had already seen through my identity, why did he let Li Ming continue to play with me? Is he trying to find the location of my real body?"
As this thought came to his mind, Levenbeck felt a chill all over his body again. In his heart, the Azure Dragon was almost equivalent to a forging hammer.
Only his teacher, who had been exposed to alchemical technology, had this familiarity and ability, and could carry out this kind of transformation after just a few months of practice.
The horror of the vampires transforming into human form was not even as great as discovering this "truth".
If his teacher had faked his death for many years like him, he wouldn't have believed how accomplished he could be.
That burly figure was the shadow in his heart, difficult to erase. Years of teaching and admiration, a complex intertwined emotion.
Levenbeck forced himself to remain calm again. "No, I use alchemical psychic resonance to control the carrier. It transmits through the universe, not through signal waves. My body is almost always moving. I don't believe he can find me."
Having been hiding for so many years, there is naturally nothing wrong with his mentality.
But the thought that the other party was most likely Duan Chui, his teacher, made him unable to calm down.
"He's stalling for time..." Levenbeck finally realized this. "Why? What does he want to do?"
Thinking without any evidence would hardly yield any useful answers. He frowned and tried to review the situation, "What would have happened if I hadn't been delayed?"
"If I find out Ryan's people are being attacked, I will notify him immediately. Given Ryan's personality, he might just rush to the Corona Borealis ring to investigate the matter in detail."
"The blood sacrifice will inevitably stop." Levenback gradually understood the situation. "Is he going to gather enough evidence to incriminate Ryan?"
Levenbeck was not sure, the only thing he was sure of was that Qinglong delayed him in order to prevent Ryan from knowing the situation too early.
"Since you don't want him to know, I must let him know as soon as possible." Levenbeck's eyes flickered coldly.
"However, I would have to reveal everything to Ryan, but he probably already realized that my identity is not simple."
With a slight thought, a pillar rose in front of the flesh and blood throne, reflecting a virtual screen. He wanted to log into the Alchemist Baron's account, but stopped.
"No, if I tell him directly, his actions may get out of control. Qinglong is nowhere to be found, and impulsiveness is not advisable. Besides, my experiment has to go on..." Levenbeck pondered.
A ball of flesh squeezed out of the upper body connected to the throne of flesh and blood, which quickly absorbed the free energy particles and evolved into a living organism.
His expression was solemn. "I still have to go there myself. Ryan can't give up. Azure Dragon... Forging Hammer...everything needs to be planned carefully."
Silently, the life form before him regained its spirit and walked out, "Teacher, I am not inferior to you!"
………
During interstellar travel, you can hardly feel the passage of time, and in the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed.
The mother planet of Ethlan - Clanril, this life planet is much larger than ordinary life planets. It has five natural satellites and seven acquired satellite cities, which together surround the prosperous mother planet.
Amidst the flowing starlight, a large number of spaceships lined up at the starport and entered one after another.
In a secret facility somewhere, Li Ming met Asmara whom he had not seen for a long time.
"It's been a long time since we last met, Your Highness. You've become more beautiful than ever." Li Ming was very polite. He looked at Asmara, who was wearing black gloves and a luxurious black dress. Her posture was still graceful and elegant.
A complicated look passed across Asmara's slightly raised face as she looked at Li Ming who seemed respectful in front of her.
Once upon a time, I had the opportunity to recruit this person, or to establish a very good relationship with him.
If at that time, she had not been dissatisfied with this guy's close relationship with Ford and asked Isius to smooth out his edges.
Things are unpredictable. No one expected that she would be in the same boat with Baijan and Ford. The past disputes became ridiculous.
"Isius, it was you who killed him." Asmara spoke slowly.
Li Ming was a little surprised and recalled the somewhat arrogant prince.
I didn't expect Asmara to ask this question. She was definitely not trying to bring up old issues, but probably just to verify her guess.
"Who killed Isius? Does it still matter now?" Li Ming shook his head and still did not explain.
Asmara chuckled silently and didn't waste time talking to Li Ming. She said directly: "The metal materials you want are all at the Stargate Port now. You can retrieve them at any time."
"And the materials your people sent have been gathered together in one place according to your ideas."
The topic changed quickly. Li Ming vaguely felt that Asmara had changed a little, but he didn't know where to start.
"Thank you very much, Your Highness."
Li Ming nodded, already feeling a bit impatient. Just when he was about to turn around and leave, he bumped into a group of people. The leader had a gloomy expression and looked about 70% similar to Nicholas. It was Grand Duke Xavier.
His eyes swept over Li Ming. Due to the mimicry, he didn't pay any attention to him. He just casually asked Asmara, "Who is he?"
"A secret ally." Asmara looked calm, with her chin slightly raised, and signaled the confidant behind her to send Li Ming out.
Grand Duke Xavier did not suspect anything at all. He had a worried look on his face, as if he had something to say.
Li Ming glanced at him and left the secret facility under the guidance of his confidant.
This secret facility is located on one of the satellites orbiting the mother planet. Asmara's confidant took him onto a small aircraft and prepared to take him to the port.
"Teacher, isn't this exciting?"
In the small aircraft, Li Ming suddenly spoke, looking at the middle-aged man in front of him with a determined expression.
The middle-aged man's face twitched, "Did you figure it out?"
Li Ming smiled, "I saw it at first sight."
That’s right, the confidant following behind Asmara is none other than the elusive Wu Yanqing.
"You guys are quite good at having fun, right under the nose of Grand Duke Xavier." Li Ming teased.
Old Wu's cheeks twitched, and he said helplessly, "What are you talking about? Asmara doesn't have many people he can trust, so there are many things I have to do."
"Tsk..." Li Ming said meaningfully. Even if Old Wu was thick-skinned, he couldn't stand it at this moment and changed the subject unnaturally.
"What is your Qinglong teacher planning to do this time? I feel like this matter is about to get out of hand. Xavier has become suspicious, not of Asmara, of course, but of that Thor..."
"Don't worry, if you can't push it down, don't force it." Li Ming shook his head: "It won't affect you..."
"We're fine..." Wu Yanqing hesitated, subconsciously looking around, and said hesitantly: "There's something I need to ask you..."
"Hmm?" Li Ming's expression became more serious. "Just tell me directly."
"Asmara is pregnant..." Wu Yanqing's face looked very unnatural.
"Ah?" Li Ming was confused for a moment, hesitant to speak, he mumbled for a long time, and could only give a thumbs up, "As expected of you..."
"Let me make it clear first, if the victim comes to me, I won't care."
Wu Yanqing's face darkened. "Things here are quite complicated, not what you imagine."
"Yeah." Li Ming nodded. "No wonder Asmara seemed a little strange. It turns out it was the radiance of motherhood."
Wu Yanqing opened his mouth, but knew he couldn't explain it clearly. He shook his head and sneered, "Does she have the radiance of motherhood?"
"She took the embryo out of her belly and placed it directly in an external gestation device without any care."
Hearing this, Li Ming couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "As expected of a strong woman, I said it's normal for her belly to be so big."
"It's fine if she doesn't want to take care of it, but she didn't even tell me where to train me." Wu Yanqing was clearly unhappy about this and shook his head again: "This is a matter between us."
He said solemnly, "I'm asking for another favor. If Ryan gets involved in this, I hope you can find a place to culture the embryos."
"Asmara is a smart person. He probably didn't place his training position around here."
Li Ming opened his mouth, wanting to tell Old Wu not to worry about being affected, but then nodded and assured him, "Don't worry, if anything happens, I will go find him."
Wu Yanqing patted his shoulder and did not continue with this heavy topic. Instead, he talked about other things. He had not returned to Blue Star for a long time.
After learning about the changes in the laboratory, he just snorted coldly: "Luochuan's hands are still too soft."
The two chatted and soon arrived at the metal material storage warehouse. After showing Asmara's order, they had a smooth journey.
Rumble--
The heavy warehouse door slowly opened, and dazzling light rushed out from the gradually widening gap.
"These metal materials are not the most advanced, but they are pretty good. I wonder if they meet your requirements." Old Wu said while standing by.
"It definitely meets the requirements." Li Ming couldn't help rubbing his hands. This day had finally arrived.
As he stepped into the warehouse, he looked back at Wu Yanqing.
Old Wu understood and closed the warehouse door. "You can figure out a way to get out later. I'm going back now."
Boom!
The warehouse door was tightly closed, and the metal materials in front of him were piled up like a hill. There were all kinds of colors, coming from various advanced civilizations and the Mechanical Royal Court.
The more advanced the material, the greater the technological premium that comes with it. Advanced civilizations provide less expensive materials, and when added together, the volume is not small, but not too large either.
Li Ming was already very satisfied and absorbed it patiently.
The market value of these metal materials is close to 110 billion, and he spent three days and three nights absorbing them.
After absorbing the last bit of "tungsten steel alloy", Li Ming breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes burning.
On the control page, the metal energy balance has reached an unprecedented 1.6 billion.
He has less than 100 million metal energies left.
This time, he absorbed more than 100 million metal energies, and when the balance reached 10 billion, his heart really beat violently.
But he still patiently absorbed all the metal energy before taking out the infinite heavy hammer from the folded space, which was wrapped by the special technology of the Dominating Holy Elephant.
The fingertips gently stroked the white film above, and there was a "pop" sound, like a bubble bursting.
The infinitely heavy hammer, as thick as a finger, suddenly enlarged, and the hammer head full of cracks smashed down fiercely.
Li Ming frowned and reached out to grab the cold hammer handle immediately, but he still felt an unstoppable and terrifying force carrying him down.
