Chapter 358: Lure the snake out of its hole? Lure the tiger away from its mountain! Desperate Nicolael!
In the security department, Li Ming, hidden in a metal body, is undergoing numerous tests.
Countless tiny mechanical detectors surrounded it like a swarm of bees, emitting dense scanning beams that intertwined into a gorgeous light net on the surface of the metal body.
Various instruments integrate complex data and information flows, continuously analyzing every tiny structure of the metal body.
The inspectors were busy operating the instruments with a focused look on their faces, and the energy pulses covered the metal objects again and again along the special conduction lines.
"It has been tested at least sixteen times..." Li Ming was speechless and secretly shocked. Under normal circumstances, it would be as difficult as climbing to the sky to get in.
"I don't know if I can meet Nicholas." He pondered to himself and was not sure about this matter, but since he had broken through the external defense, things would be much easier.
Thinking about Nicholas's lingering trouble, Li Ming became a little more restless.
………
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In the empty metal corridor, the sound of hurried footsteps was heard, and the reflection of the metal walls produced a series of overlapping echoes.
Nicholas walked in front with an indifferent look on his face. Albert followed silently. Everyone in the group looked unhappy. The secretary beside him was tall and spoke in a clear voice:
"According to news from the main universe, Tsathoggua has submitted a petition to the Royal Council to revoke your title."
"We are still going through the process, but judging by the evidence provided by the other party, they are extremely well prepared. There is a high probability that the judgment will be made without your presence."
Nicholas's face was gloomy. "How could it be so fast? Where did he get so much evidence..."
The secretary continued, "In addition, the Royal Council has issued an executive order requiring Mr. Albert to explain in person what he is doing during the action period."
Albert's face changed slightly and he looked a little worried. Facing the scrutiny of the Royal Parliament, he didn't know if he could hold on to the end.
"Tsathoggua..." Nicolael said with a cold expression, "Reply to them and tell them that I haven't completed my mission here yet."
He was in a bad mood. Qinglong was not affected at all, but he was covered in shit.
Thinking of Qinglong, he frowned and asked, "Have Prince Kostart and his men arrived at the designated coordinates?"
"We just arrived and are making arrangements. If the target appears, we will take action immediately." The secretary responded, but Nicholas' expression did not ease at all.
Sathoggua acted too quickly, and Prince Costa deliberately excluded him. Even if Qinglong was caught, it would only be a possibility of turning the situation around.
"By the way," the secretary reported, "the item you requested has been delivered to the security department earlier."
"What do I want?" Nicholas paused and turned back expressionlessly: "What is it?"
"This is it." The secretary lowered his head and directly pulled out something from the virtual screen.
She also didn't know whether Nicholas ordered others to bring that thing. Judging from the other party's reaction, it seemed that they didn't know about it.
But asking your boss back is not a good option.
Nicholas looked down and saw a full-scale perspective inspection image of a rectangular metal object.
"This is..." He looked at the diagram with a slightly bewildered expression: "A mechanical folding motorcycle?"
Nicholas looked indifferent: "Who sent this?"
The Grand Duke really doesn’t know?
The secretary felt uneasy that her subordinates had dared to fabricate orders. She hurriedly pulled up the route map and Roll's photo.
"It was sent here by a soldier from the Inspection Department, saying it was your special order. It went through multiple tests on the way here, and no problems were found."
"Call this person over." Nicolael glanced at the photo, but didn't remember anything. He frowned slightly, thinking for a moment, and continued to walk towards the office. "Go take a look. If you're sure there's nothing wrong with it, bring it over."
"Yes." The secretary turned and left.
Nicholas returned to the office and the gray-white lights came on. The decoration here was very simple. He preferred the interstellar realism style.
The gray window gradually became clear, and outside the window was a black cannon that was thousands of meters long, like a giant dragon, sitting on a huge metal foundation.
The dark matter fission generator at the end looks like a complex rune ring, with sharp electric flashes flashing on the edge of the ring and a thick energy flow like oil surging inside.
The metal surface exudes a cold luster, like a cold star in the dark night, and is engraved with mysterious patterns. The muzzle is deep, and the surrounding airflow forms a vortex visible to the naked eye under its influence.
On the gun barrel, there is a scarlet energy restraint device every hundred meters. The blood-bright light dances on the black gun body, exuding a chilling aura and containing enough power to suppress the stars.
There was a black box on the desk. Nicolael seemed to have expected this and walked straight up to open it. There were two black stones placed irregularly inside.
"Is this the Stone of Terrax? It's the condensation of the essence of the Terrax people..." Nicholas picked one up and looked at it carefully. It was his first time to come into contact with this thing.
Before, I mainly stayed in the main universe and had little contact with items from the dimensional world.
That is to say, Prince Costat and others have left, and he has the highest status in the entire base, so he was transferred here.
"It is said that the evolutionary path of the Terraxians is completely different from the current mainstream evolutionary path." Albert asked curiously.
"Yes, the Terraxians are naturally powerful and can even travel freely through dimensional worlds." Nicolael said casually, while carefully examining the stone in his hand, muttering:
"Li Ming... or Qinglong, what do you want this for?"
He looked for a long time but found no clues. He put down the stone in his hand and picked up the paper material on the side, which listed in detail the various functions and approximate data of the Terrax Stone.
Ding Dong!
There was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Nicholas looked up, put down the documents in his hand, and said nonchalantly.
But he was thinking in his heart: "Prince Kostat's attitude towards Qinglong is very ambiguous. He doesn't necessarily treat him as an enemy."
"But after capturing him, they will definitely reap considerable benefits. They will definitely not allow him to move freely. They will more likely sign some kind of agreement to make him cooperate with the imperial family."
Nicholas understood clearly that Prince Costat had eliminated him due to personal emotions, but he could not have a good attitude towards Qinglong.
These royal family members have a ridiculous arrogance in their bones.
The secretary came in, holding the metal object in his hand.
Albert and Nicholas' slightly distracted eyes first fell on the metal body.
Li Ming, who was hiding in the secretary's shadow, did not hesitate at all the moment he saw Albert.
With the addition of Tank Guard, [Heart of Talos] is activated, all conversion speeds are increased, [Mechanical Soul Liberation] is activated, and another 30% data increase is added.
A series of combat methods were fully utilized, and the sneak attack ability of [Shadow Sting] was used to lock the target - Nicholas.
After [Justice Arm Armor] was upgraded to S-level, the power blessing increased dramatically. Now, with the accumulation of various means, the speed blessing converted has exceeded 250 times as a whole. This is a terrifying speed!
boom!
Tanwei rushed out from the shadows, his hands clasped together in front of him, decisive and ruthless.
The moment it appeared, the void twisted and torn, and dense cracks appeared, as if it could not bear such terrible destructive power.
As soon as Nicholas saw the metal body for the first time, he realized something was wrong.
But the danger did not come from this metal body. However, due to the previous information, both of them were attracted by the metal body and reacted a little slowly.
Nicholas' heart exploded with a bone-chilling chill. He saw that the secretary's shadow was distorted and the void was like glass, shattering inch by inch, unable to withstand the brutal killing power.
"This..." Nicholas didn't even have time to think about it, because the speed was too fast, even faster than his thoughts, and there was no trace visible to the naked eye.
The air was torn apart and compressed extremely quickly in a short period of time, making it difficult to even make a sound.
Nicholas had no time to react to the sudden attack. In the blink of an eye, his body's instinctive reaction had already made the decision for him.
His body suddenly twisted and became like a phantom. The black light actually passed through his body. Li Ming's eyes were blurred and he could hardly see anything, but he could clearly feel that there was no sense of penetration.
"He actually dodged it." He was secretly surprised. Is this "virtualization"?
He had read Nicolael's information. He was an S-class life form, with a development progress of nearly 30%. His gene seed - the Void Mantis Prototype - could hide itself in the void.
The one who was even more surprised than him was Nicholas. His body gradually solidified and emerged in the void.
Swish!
There was a sound of tearing cloth, and a twenty-centimeter-long wound appeared on his abdomen. The incision was smooth.
Nicholas broke out in a cold sweat. The opponent's killing power was too terrifying, even cutting through the void. Even though he was hiding in the void, he was affected.
boom!
A violent gust of wind exploded, roaring out along the torn wall. A spatial crack clearly appeared in his office, and everything around him was annihilated silently, which was chilling.
"In the shadows... is Qinglong!" He was shocked and angry, but then realized instantly, "This is a way to lure the tiger away from the mountain!"
At the same time, it was unbelievable that Qinglong had managed to sneak in here. Were the defenses just for show?!
These thoughts intertwined in Nicolael's mind.
In reality, Albert just reacted and looked at it in horror, but he also felt an indescribable fear.
He looked at the crack in the wall, his expression suddenly changed, and he subconsciously raised his hand. A surge of silver energy rushed out, turning into a silver dragon and heading towards the crack in the wall.
boom!
A cone-shaped beam of black light pierced through the silver dragon and tore it apart like water waves before Albert could react.
Snap!
Albert's body shook, and he felt severe pain in his arms. Then his bones and flesh were separated, and he was cut off at the root, and blood gushed out.
boom!
A terrifying energy wave exploded, then spread out in all directions like a rolling wave, continuously spreading.
The entire Xingyuan Empire headquarters was filled with shrill alarms.
All the staff were stunned, and then looked at the place where the silver light was rising into the sky with their mouths wide open.
The energy aftermath spread, and at the edge, air waves rolled, strong winds surged, the metal ground cracked inch by inch, and all the low-altitude aircraft nearby were blown away.
"It's not over yet..." Nicholas was horrified. He had almost no time to react. His body became ethereal again. He could only vaguely see the mecha that flashed by like an arrow from a bow.
"This mecha? Is it Li Ming?" His heart was shocked again, and he couldn't believe it.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
One after another, the sound of energy explosions rang out here. Li Ming only felt that he was constantly bending and piercing back and forth under the guidance of an inexplicable force.
If such a speed could be guided, this "certain hit" was too incredible, even Li Ming himself was astonished.
As Tan Wei shuttled back and forth rapidly, this place had become a singularity of spatial collapse. The void storm it caused was like a raging dragon, raging in all directions with the power to destroy everything.
Brilliant energy light flickered and jumped in the storm. Matter instantly decomposed in the face of this force, turning into the most basic particles. The entire area seemed to be caught in a vortex of doomsday, and everything was collapsing and dying.
Nicholas remained in a state of emptiness, but his face gradually turned extremely pale, and one could clearly see cracks appearing on his empty body.
This kind of lethality has spread to the entire space, and even if he becomes virtual, he cannot completely avoid the damage.
Nicholas' eyes were filled with shock, anger and aggrieved. He had more methods than these, but under such terrifying and powerful killing power, he did not dare to materialize at all. Once he materialized, he would be torn apart directly.
It was even impossible to reveal the other party's identity. With this place as the center, the aftermath of the explosion was getting bigger and bigger, and the void storm was enough to cause damage to A-level life forms.
He couldn't imagine how such an incredibly fast and lethal means could move back and forth in a very short distance without losing any speed or lethality. This was beyond common sense.
"Why is this happening..." Nicholas' heart was filled with panic. The severe pain and weakness in his body constantly irritated his nerves, making it difficult for him to continue.
"No!"
Finally, Nicholas wailed, his pupils bloodshot and mixed with unwillingness.
He never expected that he would die in this way, let alone that Li Ming or Qinglong would be so brave.
The moment the body full of cracks appeared in the real space, it was like a handful of blood exploding. He couldn't even speak, and his chest was pierced from front to back.
After the attack was completed, Li Ming suddenly stopped and staggered far away. He was surrounded by a black storm and floating metal debris that was constantly melting.
Nicholas coughed up blood, his eyes were dazed, and his entire chest and abdomen had disappeared. Under the terrifying killing power, his skin, muscles, and bones were as fragile as paper.
The S-class has incredible vitality and is still alive.
Albert, standing next to him, looked horrified. He only had two broken arms, but his injuries were not serious. Looking at the strange yet familiar mecha not far away, fear surged in his heart, "Who on earth are you..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Ming moved, raised his metal fist, and smashed out with [Super Charged Strike], with more than two hundred and fifty times the power. He felt as if he had the stars in his hand, and he could destroy everything in his power!
boom!
Albert's head exploded and his body kept twitching. The void storm around him was broken up and became more violent.
After throwing a punch, Li Ming felt relaxed physically and mentally. This most primitive and brutal method brought the most direct and refreshing pleasure.
