Chapter 263: The Long-Awaited Upgrade of the Five Dimensional Crystals [Hunting Shadows in the Wind]
After waiting for another seven or eight days, the rebuilt lounge was finally completed and everyone moved in immediately.
Without room for two people, the lounge became much more cramped overall.
"It's getting smaller and smaller." Sandro was very dissatisfied. No one paid any attention to him.
Li Mingze went to the core laboratory after a long absence. Since he killed Brot, he had not been to the laboratory again, but had been developing gene seeds.
The soldier in charge of the examination used the scanner to show his entire body with a look of awe, not even daring to look him in the eye.
It wasn't until Li Ming entered the laboratory that everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Buzz--
The metal door opened, and the moment Li Ming stepped in, the low noise suddenly quieted down.
Eyes quickly fell on him, and then withdrew even faster. The experimenters around him turned pale and dared not speak.
"Luo Er, long time no see. There is oil reagent on your clothes..." Li Ming greeted him.
"Thank you, thank you for reminding me..." Luo Er shuddered.
Apart from Benny, Li Ming has a relatively close relationship with these experimenters. This is because he is actually quite young and can chat with most of the experimenters.
Sometimes he laughs and jokes a lot, and is very casual and doesn't put on airs.
But that day, when they looked at the terrifying crater, they remembered that this man was a great mechanic with astonishing strength.
Moreover, he is far more powerful than several other great mechanics.
"Your Excellency Qinglong." Benny greeted him, but his attitude did not change.
Deyes was working on the central workbench. The experimenters looked at him curiously, but did not dare to look at him too much.
Deyes didn't seem to notice Li Ming's arrival and just kept working with his head down.
Li Ming ignored Deyes and looked at the visualized progress, which had reached 68%.
"So fast?" he asked in surprise.
"Everyone is working together. We only have one core node left. We have some clues now and it will be solved soon. I estimate it should be solved within a month." Benny looked quite excited.
Li Ming looked at him in surprise. If someone didn't know, he would probably think that Benny was a member of the Torch Organization and was so excited.
Deyes has completely become a tool. He has little presence in the laboratory, can't say more than three sentences a day, and works non-stop.
Basically, we only have a break once every three days.
Li Ming deliberately ignored him and was too lazy to humiliate him. He touched the fish for a while and then left as usual.
After being silent for many days, he was finally able to go to the main base again.
It's the same as usual. After a while of trouble, I first hid at Pierre's place to find out what happened recently in the main base.
"Alas..." Pierre was scratching his head, sending off his subordinates who had come to report for no apparent reason, and sighed.
"Mr. Fernando is being too demanding. If I could see through Qinglong's tactics, I wouldn't have to feel so frustrated all day."
What was playing on the screen were some blurry images taken by the main base camera that day, which had been processed and looked relatively clear.
"Nano energy cannon, charging time no more than five seconds, and the highest destructive energy level exceeds 100A. This is too incredible."
"Electromagnetic energy, frost, high temperature, compressed energy, all mixed together, where does he get the energy engine to support such a large amount of energy storage..."
Their R&D department has watched this video hundreds of times day and night, but still can't find any clues.
Not to mention, coming up with any countermeasures and blockade measures.
Even when clearing the crater that was blasted out, several sets of armor of the Fireworks Apostles were destroyed.
Thinking of the leader's instructions before he left, Pierre felt under tremendous pressure. He had lost a lot of hair in the past few days.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
There was a knock on the door and someone else came in to report on their work.
"Boss, I've got an idea. This might be a form of energy pre-storage technology. He stores a huge amount of energy in something in advance..."
The staff member who came to report was interrupted before he could finish speaking.
After hearing this, Pierre roared, "How dare you think that? Why didn't you say that he was connected to a secondary energy dimension and could draw energy from it at any time?"
"And charging in advance? Are you saying he's solved the problem of long charging times for oversized main guns that many civilizations struggle to solve?"
"Super-compressed destructive energy doesn't self-annihilate, but instead coexists peacefully?"
After scolding the staff member out, Li Ming stayed in Pierre's shadow for most of the day.
I think I figured it out. Nothing else happened in the Torch Organization. They were just studying him and his cannon.
Boom!
The knock on the door sounded again. Pierre felt a throbbing pain in his head. He looked up and cursed: "Didn't I just tell you not to come..."
Halfway through his words, his face froze slightly, and he said awkwardly, "Sir Ted?"
The person who came was Ted, who had entered the dimensional crystal storage warehouse under the witness of Li Ming.
This person is the head of security at the Torch Organization's main base. According to the information Li Ming has, as a Class B life form, his development progress exceeds 90%, making him the person in the entire Torch Organization who is currently closest to a Class A life form.
There are even internal rumors that the leader is already planning to obtain A-level gene seeds for him.
"Minister Peel seems to be in a bad mood." Ted said in a dull voice.
"Nothing." Pierre shook his head repeatedly. "Sir Ted must have come here for your combat armor. It's almost finished and we're putting the finishing touches on it."
"Not ready yet?" Ted frowned.
"The damage is really too serious..." Pierre said helplessly.
Ted shook his head: "There's nothing we can do. Sir Fernande has given the order and we need to clean it up as soon as possible."
He sat in a chair, his eyes glancing at Peel's screen, and immediately asked, "What do you think? Is there any way to restrain this great mechanic?"
"Restrictions?" Pierre smiled bitterly. "He's a master mechanic, and not just any master mechanic."
"Yeah..." Ted's face showed fear. "It's hard to imagine that he is just a B-level life form, but he can create such a terrifying attack."
It was already so troublesome to clean up the crater created by the aftermath of the explosion, not to mention the horror that would be faced when facing that attack head-on.
"However, this is within the coverage of the Eternal Realm. With its protection, we won't encounter any danger." Pierre added.
"Well, I was just about to go get the dimensional crystals to further reinforce the Realm of Continuation." Ted nodded. "I wanted to pick up my armor on the way."
Pierre was slightly surprised. "Reinforce it again? Didn't we already reinforce it once?"
"It's an order from Master Fernando." Ted stood up helplessly. "Since it's not repaired yet, come back and get it."
He said goodbye and left the office, but before he left the R&D department's door, Pierre caught up with him and stopped Ted.
"What's wrong?" Ted was confused. He glanced at the metal box in Pierre's hand and said in surprise, "Resuscitator No. 2, my armor?"
"Isn't it repaired yet?"
Pierre handed over the folded armor and said, "My men reported earlier that it wasn't repaired yet. I just went to take a look and found that it's almost done."
"I'll just send it over right away to save you the trouble of making another trip."
Ted was surprised. He took the armored box, opened it, and looked at it. It was as clean as new. He couldn't help but admire it: "The maintenance department's craftsmanship has improved again."
The two exchanged a few pleasantries, and then Pierre watched Ted leave.
Ted was wearing simple armor, and it was difficult for him to put it on again, so he just held it in his hand.
Turning left and right, they arrived at the Torch Organization base again, in front of a warehouse wrapped in a purple energy film.
The soldier in charge of guarding carried out tests and checks as per routine. The scanner swept over Ted's body to determine various characteristics.
"This is my armor." Facing the guard's puzzled gaze, Ted explained, "I just went to the maintenance department and picked it up."
He opened it and took a look. There was nothing wrong. The guarding soldier didn't say much and turned sideways.
Ted was already familiar with the route and stepped into the barrier without any obstruction.
Finally, it came in...
At this moment, Li Ming was possessed by Ted's armor.
As Ted arrived, the lights here came on one by one. The room was not very big, with two rows of silver-white metal display shelves neatly arranged.
There are crystal clear crystals of various colors placed on it, which are exactly the dimensional crystals that Li Ming has been thinking about.
The two columns on the left and right add up to a total of sixty-two, which is not a lot.
What surprised Li Ming even more was that hanging on the metal wall was a thick glass cabin filled with yellow liquid.
There seemed to be something in it that needed to be stored in a special way, but it was unclear what it was.
The surveillance cameras in the four corners are running brightly, monitoring this place all the time.
"This is not easy." Li Ming pondered to himself. Now that he had come in, he naturally could not return empty-handed.
"Fortunately, we were prepared."
Open the control page and switch to a new control object--
[Virtual Reality Simulator - Class B: It is best to distinguish between virtual and reality.
…
Control effect: Hidden blessing--300%
Control capability - virtual scene: Reproduce and project scenes up to a kilometer around.
After being restricted by surveillance cameras a few times before and having to spend more energy trying to bypass them, he came up with the idea of creating a confusing surveillance control device.
It took a long time to design this thing, and many design drawings were wasted, but none of them met his requirements.
A silent curtain of light unfolded, like an illusion, which could confuse even Class B life forms, depending on the distance.
After all, it is not the time to break off relations with the Torch Organization yet, and he has a clear understanding of his own strength.
The five-gun salvo did kill Brot.
However, that was a one-time burst, not regular combat power.
He still had a vivid memory of the Torch Organization's main base that stood firm during the explosion.
Not to mention that there is Fernand, an A-level life form who can draw on the power of dimensions. If he is exposed, he can only drag Theo into the fight, which is not worth the loss.
As he was thinking in his mind, an invisible light curtain opened up, silently covering the entire room.
Ted seemed to notice something, turned around and looked around, frowning.
Not far away, Li Ming was standing in the open space, with hidden blessings on his body, and he withdrew his gaze from Ted.
In his hand, a crystal the size of a baby's fist quickly took shape.
Then, he walked quietly to the display shelf, took one, and placed the model on it.
He followed the same method and replaced four more pieces.
Ted had already taken a dimensional crystal from the shelf and placed it in a special storage box.
In the other hand, he held the armored box.
When he was near the gate, he stopped again, looked around, and then turned and left.
A few hours later, Li Ming had returned to his room, looking at the five dimensional crystals of different shapes and colors in his hand.
Strands of energy tassels dispersed and spread in the void. Light purple energy gathered around and intertwined with these energy tassels, colliding vaguely and forming a subtle energy impact.
Crackling, like electric arcs.
"What the hell?"
Li Ming's eyelids jumped, and he hurriedly stuffed these dimensional crystals into the folded space. The purple energy gathered from all sides gradually dissipated without a target.
Does this dimensional energy have territory markings?
The eternal world sensed the emergence of abnormal dimensional power and produced autonomous resistance.
Li Ming was secretly surprised, and then carefully took out a piece and absorbed it quickly, grasping the time of the dimensional force collision. It took more than half an hour to completely absorb a piece.
This time, he only took five dimensional crystals. There were still quite a few left in the warehouse, and what made him even more curious were the things stored in the sealed cabin.
But time is limited, and the noise of opening the sealed cabin is likely to be small. He has no chance and can only give up for the time being.
"I only have more than 20 million metal energy on me, and these five pieces are enough for now." Li Ming pondered and couldn't help but feel the urge to rob the warehouse and run away.
Shaking his head, he decided to upgrade first. Now that he had both metal energy and alienated energy, he didn't hesitate. He already had a goal in mind.
【Super Magnetic Electric Explosion Propulsion Shoes】
Strength and speed are inseparable. The main combat control of strength is already A-level, and the next is naturally speed.
Before, when Theo dodged the energy aftermath of the main gun bombardment, the speed that he could hardly see clearly now was really memorable.
As he was thinking, metal energy continued to surge out, and eight million metal energies were required for the upgrade.
Naturally, he chose the "internal control" upgrade route, and the originally angular blue iron block that extended to the calf was further refined.
The heavy metal armor disappeared, replaced by thin metal armor that fit closely to the skin and even extended further to the kneecaps.
At the ankles, there are two more dark blue energy generators, rotating like turbines.
[Vortex Video--Level A: Be careful of your body being torn apart.
…
Control effect: Gain 800% speed boost
Control Ability - Super Compression Burst: Gain 1600% speed and gain the "Wind Hunting Shadow" ability.
[Hunting Shadow in the Wind: Leaves a hunting shadow mark, which can be transformed with the main body. The range cannot exceed one kilometer.]
Shadow Hunter Mark? Li Ming was surprised, and then he couldn't help but be delighted.
Needless to say, this ability is very powerful.
His [Space Flash] can only be seen with the naked eye, and its range is only ten meters. If there is no cover, it is naturally a magical skill.
But when fighting, all kinds of energy flash, which has great limitations, and it also takes up a control column. Now, each of the controlled objects has a blessing of ten or twenty times, and wasting one will have a significant impact.
Of course, [Space Flash] still plays a big role, but [Hunting Shadows in the Wind] is more suitable for combat.
There are about 17 million metal energies left, and one-quarter of the alienated energy left.
After pondering for a moment, Li Ming suddenly took out a metal device - [Gravity Adjustment Device]
This is the gravity equipment provided by the Torch Organization. After thinking about it, he shook his head again.
Open the graphic design software on the smart terminal, find a similar gravity control device, and then make fine adjustments continuously.
It's outrageous. I've only been married for half a year and my family is already urging me to have a child.
I definitely can’t have it now, and I don’t know what will happen in the future. I really can’t afford it.
