Chapter 364 The Last Hope
Except for Robin, everyone watching in the field was confused at first.
There were many non-human races present. In their eyes, humans all looked the same and they could not recognize each other at all.
Most humans were also confused and looked at each other, because Li Ming's appearance was too plain, and he was jogging all the way. It was too down-to-earth. It felt like he was not on the same level as the others.
"He seems to be... Li Ming?"
"Li Ming? Who is Li Ming? He seems familiar..." The low noise spread quickly.
Countless eyes converged on him, observing, curious, envious, jealous...
For most people, the name Li Ming is relatively unfamiliar. Most people first heard of it not long after the Holy Elephant of Domination appeared.
It has been almost a month, and the matter of inheriting the legacy of the Master Hammersmith has become more and more intense. All kinds of unheard-of secrets are flying around, and not many people are paying attention to Li Ming.
But after all, it had appeared in the incident, and everyone quickly identified it. They passed on various information to each other and were quite surprised.
"This guy has the potential to develop to level 46, and he's a student of the Forging Star Mechanic. He's been the center of attention lately, and is considered to have a high chance of inheriting the legacy of the Hammersmith."
"But now..." Someone looked up at the high-level geniuses who were being secretly trained in the sky, and couldn't help but feel sorry for him.
Compared to ordinary people, Li Ming's identity is already noble enough, but compared with those people, it seems a little pale in comparison.
Prince Costat's gaze fell on Li Ming below. "How dare he show up? What on earth is Qinglong thinking?"
"And..." The prince's eyes were deep, with a hint of surprise in them.
Abel knew Li Ming's information very well. He looked him up and down. "He's Li Ming. He doesn't look special. Does Qinglong really think that if he exposes the Holy Revolutionary Army, we won't settle accounts with him?"
The truth about the attack on the Central World Empire Base is well known among the top leaders.
Prince Ryan has taken over the investigation into Qinglong. First his great-grandson died, and then his grandson died. This prince will definitely not let it go.
However, due to some matters, the prince is still on the way.
Abel pondered for a moment, and when Prince Costa remained silent, he asked, "And what..."
"He is already an A-level life form." Prince Costat said slowly.
"A-level lifeform?" Abel was shocked and asked in astonishment, "How could it be so fast? How old is he?"
Li Ming has long been an A-level life form, but only a handful of people know about it, and they are all big shots.
Austin, the Holy Mother Church... No one leaked it to the Xingyuan Empire for no reason.
"Could it be that his development potential is more than level 46?" Abel reacted and speculated, "This news comes from an advanced civilization in the Corona Borealis ring. Perhaps they made a mistake."
Prince Costat remained noncommittal. Abel asked cautiously yet in awe, "Is it really possible for a life form with a development potential exceeding level 50 to emerge naturally?"
No matter how many testing measures Yitlan used to verify Li Ming's development potential, the paper data only contained four words: "Based on the test"
Since the information did not match, he naturally subconsciously thought that Yitlan had been cheated.
"What a pity..." The young prince shook his head. No matter how high the other party's development potential was, it was impossible for him to take away the legacy of the Hammer Forger.
Not to mention, the Empire and his teacher have not yet settled their accounts. From the moment the other party appeared here, it was destined that he would not be able to leave easily.
"Uncle..." Abel thought to himself, "Leave this person to me."
"You want to use it for your own benefit?" Prince Costa came back to his senses and Abel nodded.
Prince Costa was suspicious and noncommittal, his eyes flickering as he said, "Let's continue reading."
Dius lowered her eyes and looked at Li Ming with a little curiosity. It was the first time she met this young man and she didn't pay much attention to her teacher.
But the last attack on the Imperial base was indeed quite fierce, but sending students here again under such circumstances is risky...
But on second thought, the fact that the guy named Qinglong dared to attack the imperial base meant that he was an impulsive and adventurous person.
Estelle beside her was indifferent and didn't care or concern herself. The other two members of her Star Cluster Republic Alliance were the same, waiting quietly.
If you want to take away the inheritance of the Hammersmith, developing potential is just an entry ticket. Whether you can take it away is still unclear.
The only thing worth paying attention to is Li Ming, who is a naturally born life form with high development potential.
…
"Come on..." someone suddenly shouted beside Li Ming.
He was surprised and turned his head to take a look. It was a middle-aged man who seemed a little excited. He felt that he looked a little familiar.
Seeing the mechanical staff in the other person's hand, he suddenly realized that this guy was the one who mentioned his name to the Holy Elephant of Domination.
If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be attracting so much attention, Li Ming muttered to himself.
But even if this guy didn't say it, there were others who said that his information was no longer a secret in Interstellar at that time.
"Come on... show them some color!" There was more than one person shouting at him, and it was even gradually forming a wave. Basically, they were all mechanics.
After all, this is the legacy of the master hammersmith, the founder of the Mechanics Association. It is really frustrating that no mechanic can meet the requirements to participate in the review.
Li Ming's sudden appearance and eventual arrival really gave these mechanics a shot in the arm.
Li Ming was speechless, as he was regarded as the last hope by the mechanics.
More and more people were cheering for him, and finally a clustering effect was formed, with many non-mechanics joining the ranks.
"Fuck..." Li Ming was speechless. He glanced at the "Sakana Elephant Man" over there and had no idea why this kind of life form was joining in the fun.
"Brother, show those bastards a lesson and get the inheritance!"
Amid the shouting, Li Ming heard these words, paused, and his face became more and more strange. Was he regarded as a banner of "resistance"?
No matter how you look at it, I am from a grassroots background. Even with my current status, I am still half a grassroots compared to the group of people mentioned above.
The grassroots counterattack is a script that everyone likes, and it seems very down-to-earth, which is always more approachable than those expressionless people in the sky.
With the accumulation of numerous buffs, Li Ming actually gained a lot of support.
"It's really...how unpredictable things are." After Li Ming figured it out, he felt even more speechless. He didn't care, as this kind of support was useless.
"Li Ming..." The Godly Craftsman spoke slowly, and the noisy sound that resounded into the sky gradually subsided. "He is the person I recommended."
"After all, the legacy of the Hammersmith must have a member of the Mechanics Guild."
As soon as the words fell, thunderous shouts rang out again, and the large number of mechanics present were very satisfied.
"Master craftsman..." Li Ming nodded towards where he was.
The Mechanical Soul Master beside him looked at Li Ming and suddenly said to the Creation Master, "Who asked you to recommend him? Qinglong?"
"No, an old friend." The Creator was very calm.
"Your old friends? Are there any I don't know?" The Soul Mechanical Master said jokingly.
"A lot." The Creator smiled.
The mountain-like Holy Elephant of Domination also cast its gaze upon Li Ming. He had some understanding of this young man, although several civilizations had jointly blocked his external communications.
But over such a long time, I have obtained a lot of information here and there. He comes from an ordinary background but has amazing talent.
This is very similar to the Hammer Forge Master, but the development potential is much higher than that of the Hammer Forge Master. It was discovered by the Star-Forging Mechanic very early and has been carefully cultivated.
It is a high-end plus version of the Hammer Forger.
Under normal circumstances, he might really choose this young man as his successor.
Those specially made descendants of civilizations are all machines without self-awareness.
The Ruler of the Holy Elephant was helpless. Under the current circumstances, he was no longer allowed to choose a successor normally.
"Now that the last person has arrived, let's get ready to begin." Prince Costat said lightly.
Dius was a little surprised that the Empire did not take any action. Was it worried about the Mechanics Association?
The five people, including Li Ming, all came to the Holy Elephant of Domination.
An urgent pressure came over them, but the five people present had seen big scenes before, and their expressions remained calm.
"The command of the Holy Elephant can now begin." Prince Costat said in a deep voice.
"I understand..." The Dominating Holy Elephant said lazily. The slightest movement would cause a violent hurricane, and its huge mechanical pupils stared at the five people in front of it.
The mechanical long nose, which was as big as a mountain, covered the sky and the sun, and fell to the ground with a loud bang, stirring up a surging wind, and people around it fell to the ground.
The two holes on the elephant's trunk were pitch black.
"Come in..." he said.
"Go in?" Abel frowned slightly, and the five people present were unmoved.
"Where do you want them to go?" Prince Costat said coldly, "This is not in our agreement."
"Of course this is in our agreement," the Holy Elephant of Domination said impatiently, "They are now going inside my body to conduct various tests."
"Go inside your body?" Dius also frowned and said unhappily, "Why didn't you say that before?"
"Are you still not at ease?" The Holy Elephant of Domination was very dissatisfied.
Everyone kept silent, of course they were worried. These were the treasures of all the major civilizations and the pillars of the future. What if they were killed by the Dominating Holy Elephant inside their bodies?
"What are the assessment steps?" asked Prince Costat.
"Development potential and mechanical talent..." The Holy Elephant of the Lord helplessly explained: "The former can be tested visually, but the latter cannot be directly demonstrated. It can only be proven with time, and the assessment may take a while."
This explanation was reasonable, but several people were quite hesitant. This was something beyond their control. However, since things had come to this point, it was not a good time to back down.
Seeing that the few people remained silent, the onlookers started to make noises in a low voice, and many of them looked at them with contempt.
You don’t even dare let anyone in?
"If you guys don't want to go, I'll go in first." Li Ming spoke first. He was not afraid anyway.
Abel and the others' expressions changed slightly. Are you trying to get impression points again?
"Wait!" Prince Costat shouted, his face sullen. "I have a question. They won't kill each other when they go in, right?"
"The assessments are separate. Even when testing combat capabilities, there are mechanical bodies. I'm not at that level yet." The Holy Elephant of Domination was speechless.
"I have another question," Dius continued, "Is the Infinite Hammer included in the legacy of the Hammersmith?"
Costat looked at them coldly. He was also very curious about this question. The Holy Elephant had never given them an answer before.
But he was still surprised that Dius asked it so directly.
Abel may not be recognized. If someone else gets it, they will have to find out what the so-called inheritance is so that they can deal with it.
But now that everyone is paying attention, it is bound to cause more waves.
There was silence all around, and the onlookers were also curious about this question and watched eagerly.
"That hammer? It's not there..." The Holy Elephant of Domination shook his head and said casually, "The hammer disappeared along with the Hammersmith a long time ago."
"No infinite hammer?" Abel was a little disappointed, but he had expected this.
"Do you have any questions?" The Ruling Holy Elephant looked at the guardian of the Cluster Republican Alliance - Claude.
"No." Crow shook his head.
"So are you going in or not?" The Holy Elephant of Domination urged.
"If one person is missing when we come out, you know the consequences," Prince Costa said coldly. "Also, the entire assessment process must be made public so we know."
"I understand." The Holy Elephant of Domination became increasingly impatient.
…
"He is Li Ming?"
In the Empire's aircraft, Prince Ryan's figure suddenly appeared, his edges blurred, looking at Li Ming on the screen.
Jiaint was startled, but said with a stiff upper lip, "Yes... yes."
Diaz retreated behind Prince Ryan and remained silent.
Prince Ryan's face was expressionless. "If we don't catch him, what is Costat waiting for?"
Gaint's throat was dry, and he whispered, "After all, he was recommended by the God of Creation. Prince Costat might be concerned about the Mechanics Association."
"Really? Costat is still as cowardly as ever, but does the Empire need to be afraid of anyone?" Prince Ryan narrowed his eyes.
Jiainte felt inexplicably trembling all over. Even though it was just a virtual projection, he felt an indescribable fear and said hurriedly:
"I also... I have another idea. Let Li Ming in. If he can really gain recognition, it won't be too late for us to arrest him later."
"Using the excuse of the Empire being attacked makes sense."
"That's very thoughtful." Prince Ryan smiled, but his eyes were cold, a perfect example of what it meant to smile with a fake smile. "But what if I want to take action now?"
Gaint felt a chill in his heart. Just as he was about to speak, his eyes blurred and Diaz had already left.
"Diaz!" he couldn't help but shout, trying to catch up.
"Alas...Alas...Alas..." Prince Ryan shook his head lightly and stood in front of Gaint.
Gaint's scalp tingled. It was just an illusion. He could have rushed straight towards it, but... in the end he still didn't move.
"That's a good boy..." Prince Ryan showed his standard, chilling, forced smile.
