Chapter 247 Li Ming's ingenious method of breaking through the barrier
Deyes gathered his emotions, temporarily putting aside what had happened before, and replied in a deep voice, "Sir Asmara."
"I knew this day would come." Asmara's voice was calm, as if he had expected Deyes to contact him.
Deyes was in a bad mood right now. He didn't say much and just said, "You won't go back on the treaty you made."
"Of course, you should know what I want most. Apart from the [Sublimation Source Crystal], I can give you everything else."
Deyes held back what he wanted to say. Even though he knew the other party was probably exaggerating, his heart still beat a few times.
A large amount of resources are stored in the core ruins of the Sublimators. For the Itlan civilization, the most important one is naturally the Sublimation Source Crystal.
But other things are also valuable, and the dark matter stardust he has been thinking about is just one of them.
But he quickly calmed down and said in a deep voice, "Don't tempt me with such a big offer. I'm afraid I can't afford it. I can tell you clearly that all I need is the dark matter stardust and one-fifth of the resources within it."
"Give me too much, I'm afraid you will regret it later..." Deyes gritted his teeth. If a blue dragon had not suddenly appeared, he would not have tried to cooperate with Asmara.
Asmara's eyes flickered slightly. The crystal communicator hanging on her ear had already transmitted the results of multiple analyses by the intelligence department.
"The target's tone contained an extremely strong sense of unwillingness. Based on the event model, it is speculated that the most likely realistic conditions are met—"
"That is, there are extremely serious divisions within the Torch Organization. I'm afraid Deyes has no other choice but to cooperate with us to get what he wants."
"No problem. Lord Deyes should have heard of my reputation as Asmara. Although I am vicious and cruel, I will never regret it later."
Based on the analysis results provided by the intelligence department, she specifically emphasized: "What is due to you will never change due to any unexpected circumstances."
Deyes's expression eased slightly, and his voice softened considerably: "In that case, we have reached a cooperation agreement."
"I know you want the Torch Organization's coordinates now, and you're even looking for the source of the signal, but I can tell you clearly that I can't do that."
Deyes said without hiding anything, "The coordinates you have found now are the signal converters I set up in advance."
"I used the Torch Organization's external communication data stream, compiled it, and split it into many segments in a special format. Only a specific signal converter can parse and transmit it."
"The Torch Organization uses dark domain IP addresses. All signals are forwarded through the black hole network, making them impossible to detect."
Asmara was not surprised, as the intelligence department had already given its analysis.
It can be detected that Deyes has a significant delay, which is rarely seen in today's interstellar network.
"I need to know the specific situation inside the Torch Organization now."
Deyes anticipated this and said immediately, "We are confined to one area and are not allowed to visit other places."
"As for the Tanlomon Bio-Sublimator, about one-third of it has been produced."
"One third..." Asmara said in a cold voice, "I have information that Master Mechanic Qinglong is absolutely sure to create a Tanlomon Bio-Sublimator. Can you confirm this?"
Deyes was silent. "Your source of information is very powerful. Qinglong recognized the origin of this thing as soon as he saw it."
"After this period of time, I could clearly sense that he was very familiar with this thing. He not only provided data, but also a lot of details. He was so familiar with it that it seemed as if he had not only seen it before, but also disassembled it."
Asmara's eyes suddenly became deep.
"Have you found out where this guy came from?" Deyes couldn't help but ask.
Asmara shook her head: "There are no clues."
"No clues at all?" Deyes' voice couldn't help but rise. "Since this is a collaboration, sincerity is essential."
He joined the Torch Organization a long time ago and was not very clear about the relevant information from the outside world, nor was he able to check it.
But the Itlan civilization is, after all, an advanced civilization in the Silver Cluster.
Asmara is also connected with the bigwigs of the Xingyuan Empire. How could they not have any clues at all when they want to investigate someone?
"I'm not lying." Asmara shook her head, honestly saying, "There really aren't any leads. He seems to have appeared out of nowhere. None of the Grand Mechanics or Forge-level Mechanics we know of match him."
"It's definitely not from the Xingyuan Empire. No one knows why it appeared here."
"How could this happen..." The mystery surrounding Qinglong made Deyes even more frightened.
"The target sounded apprehensive and uneasy, extremely hostile to Qinglong. It seems they had a direct conflict..."
The intelligence department has analyzed that there was something strange in Deyes' tone when he mentioned the name Qinglong.
"You confronted him? What did he do in the Torch Organization?" she asked immediately.
"Nothing, it's just that what he showed was too powerful..." Deyes said with a melancholy tone, "He has two robots under his command..."
He recounted what had happened previously.
Asmara listened, and when she heard that the two machines joined forces to suppress Brot, her expression was filled with confusion.
It was even more incredible to hear that the two mechanical bodies could repair themselves.
The entire secret intelligence department was strangely quiet, and everyone looked at each other in confusion.
A Class B mechanical body suppressing a Class A life form, it sounds a bit far-fetched.
Beside her, Gabriel's expression was very interesting, stunned, surprised, and thoughtful...
Deyes's voice echoed in the room, "...This level of technical prowess is definitely not that of a simple master mechanic. I advise you to investigate thoroughly and be prepared. He must be the biggest variable."
"This old guy really thinks highly of me." Li Ming looked unfriendly in the shadows.
"I understand." After a long time, Asmara rubbed her brows.
"Do you have any contingency plans?" Deyes asked immediately. "My time is very tight. Tell me what you need to tell me as soon as possible."
"It's difficult for us to take direct action without being able to determine the exact coordinates of the torch organization."
Deyes frowned. The traitor wanted his own camp to fail more than anyone else and was afraid of being discovered.
He couldn't help but say, "We saw the giant constructor when we came here. The Torch Organization has an independent warship production line."
“The exact time of purchase cannot be determined, and it’s like looking for a needle in a haystack.” Asmara shook her head.
"I'm not asking you to investigate that giant construct." Deyes shook his head. "Their low-end standard warships are relatively simple to produce, but the core structural components within are incredibly difficult to manufacture."
"They are most likely buying it from outside. There shouldn't be many people who can sell this kind of thing."
"I see." Asmara's eyes flickered. "If you can find a way to see some special signs, it will be easier to find."
"I can't go anywhere here!" Deyes said angrily. "It's almost ten minutes. I need to finish and contact you again."
The screen went dark. Asmara paused in thought before issuing an order: "Go determine the exact location of the signal converter and verify the truth of what he said."
"Also, His Highness Gabriel..." Asmara looked at Gabriel.
"No problem. I'll have people investigate the entire Corona Borealis ring for all civilizations capable of mass-producing battleship-class weapons." Gabriel nodded. "Have them provide a detailed list."
Everyone in the Secret Intelligence Department was working intensively to organize and update various materials based on the information provided by Deyes.
But it was visibly that Asmara's expression had relaxed a lot.
"With this guy named Deyes here, we don't have to worry about the Torch Organization's secret operations." Gabriel glanced at Asmara's delicate profile and couldn't help but say.
"That's right..." Asmara nodded slightly. She was not afraid of the Torch Organization. She was eager to confront the Torch Organization head-on.
But the Torch Organization will not confront her head-on.
What she found difficult was that she didn't know the specific dynamics of the Torch Organization and didn't know what stage they were at.
What if they found a way to go deep into the Red River Star Stream and took away the things in the ruins without anyone reacting? That would be what she feared the most.
Now with Deyes as an insider, many problems can be easily solved.
"Perhaps, this is a good thing. Someone is helping us create the bio-sublimator." Gabriel smiled, but then said, "But the origin of this Azure Dragon..."
Asmara remained noncommittal. After so many years of research, she couldn't guarantee that the sublimator could be manufactured.
The drawings obtained by the Torch Organization are almost complete, but there are still some problems that have not been resolved.
If Qinglong could solve it, it would indeed be a good thing, but it would also make the other party's identity even more confusing.
The biological sublimator is one of the core secrets of the Ascender civilization. They destroyed all the blueprints long before they were destroyed.
And this Qinglong has actually been disassembled?
We need to mobilize more resources to investigate his background.
"Your Highness..." A slim female secretary with golden wavy hair came over. Gabriel and Asmara looked at her at the same time.
"Your Highness Asmara..." The blonde secretary looked embarrassed and whispered, "The press conference is ready. Here are the questions and the manuscript."
She handed over a document, and the first few words were written in large letters: "The Destruction of the Land of Stars..."
………
"Well, Asmara can't determine the exact location of the Torch Base for the time being. Cornett's precautionary work is indeed very good."
After returning to the room, Li Ming felt much more relieved. He was really afraid that Asmara would call him tomorrow.
"But Deyes is also keeping an eye on everything at the Torch Base. He might find some clues."
He thought that with the evidence in hand, he could report Deyes at any time.
"But he still needs to take the blame for what I did." Li Ming thought.
After confirming that Asmara couldn't come for the time being, he also had other things to think about.
He had already thought of how to break through the blockade of the purple barrier, or the idea suddenly popped up when he was staying in Deyes's shadow.
The key lies in the [Iron Cavalry Glory] ability of the [Mechanical Cavalry] profession.
This ability allows one to possess a carrier, and this type of possession is different from [Shadow Sting].
Take Theo as an example. The former made Theo unaware of it, but if it weren't for the superimposed concealment blessing, Theo would have easily noticed the latter.
It also means that this kind of possession is more secretive.
His idea was to possess the carrier and let Pierre take him in.
However, the armor was too conspicuous. Pierre was obviously from the R&D department. It would be too easy to attract attention if he suddenly went to the laboratory wearing armor.
This was not a problem for him. He just switched on the [Material Recombination Maker], opened the smart terminal, and started working on the design. It was just a matter of experimenting slowly.
"I can only possess the mechanical vehicle I control, but who says a palm-sized piece of mechanical armor can't be called a vehicle?"
Li Ming muttered to himself that when he was in the outside world, he had stored a lot of general design drawings. He found a set of armor and simply scaled it down proportionally and tried to manufacture it.
The result was a direct failure. Armor that can be reduced to a certain size and still operate autonomously requires extremely high technical content.
"Remove the weapon module, remove the exoskeleton assist..." He removed a series of things, leaving almost only a shell.
This time it was made, only the size of a finger.
[Universal Mecha Model--F Class: An Exquisite Decoration]
"Model?" Li Ming was completely confused. How could it be identified as a model?
He tried to possess someone, but it didn't work.
After thinking for a moment, he suddenly cursed, "Stupid! Why make a small one? Why not just make one that can be folded?"
With his spirits lifted, he came up with a new idea. He found a not-so-high-end mechanical motorcycle design, deleted some parts and modified it, and added folding capabilities to it.
It doesn't need to be too high-end, he can upgrade anyway.
Three hours later, a black and white assault-style mechanical motorcycle appeared in his room. The body of the motorcycle was streamlined, and the front windshield had protruding edges and corners, which served to cut through the air.
[Mechanical motorcycle--Class F: Fuel-powered motorcycle.
…
Control effect: Speed blessing - 10%
Control Ability - Folding: Reduce its volume by 10%]
The ordinary D-class motorcycle even uses fuel power.
The only highlight is [Folding], which is what Li Ming needs.
He tried it immediately, changed his perspective, and sure enough, he could lean over it.
He tried to fold it again, but heard a series of clicking sounds. The metal components clamped together and the entire mechanical motorcycle was flipped over from the center. The overall look was a bit flatter, but still very large.
Rays of light flowed out from the car body and turned into Li Ming's original body again. It was okay if the folding was not obvious, and the upgrade was completed.
Seven hundred thousand or eight hundred thousand metal energies were poured into it, directly pulling it up to Class B. The overall look was completely renewed, and the size was further reduced. The bloated designs such as the exhaust pipe disappeared without a trace. It had clear edges and corners and was ergonomic.
[Magnetic Storm Shuttle--Class B: Super-compressed electromagnetic energy helps you soar into the sky.
…
Control effect: Speed blessing——300%
Control Ability - Folding: Reduce its own volume tenfold. 】
The folding ability has been reduced tenfold, and this ability is obviously difficult to improve. It can only be increased tenfold when it reaches level B.
If used directly, Li Ming can become a small man less than 20 centimeters tall.
