Chapter 415: All parties are paying attention, will the Azure Dragon finally arrive?
Boom!
Finally, Li Ming completely released his defensive power, and his body, which had been suppressed for a long time, vibrated violently. A powerful aura burst out, and every leap of life was like a fish leaping into the sky.
Powerful energy surged like an overwhelming force, forming a rolling storm that penetrated into his body.
In an instant, that powerful energy burst out from Li Ming's body again, flooding the universe like a tide, and it took a long time before it completely calmed down.
Stretching his limbs, Li Ming felt an unprecedented sense of relief, just like the moment when his body was completely stretched out after being curled up in a narrow box for a long time.
He felt the barriers of space, the blockage of time, the flow of energy, the operation of the universe...
The improvement of his life level has given him a clearer understanding of the laws of the universe.
S-level life forms have a natural lifespan of more than 5,000 years.
Take a deep breath. There is no air in the universe, but energy is pouring in and filling your lungs.
"Great!" Li Ming opened his mouth silently.
This joy that comes from deep within my heart makes every cell in my body cheer.
The new control bar is unlocked, and it is just right to put the A-level [Star-Shaking Giant Fist] that was removed before into it. It can at least provide eight times the effective power blessing and twenty times the overall power blessing.
Raising his fist, he grinned, "I estimate that the normal energy level should be 10 seconds. Combined with the [Super Charged Strike] and the 35% comprehensive data boost provided by [Weapon Release], it should be able to produce a powerful burst of nearly 100 times the power."
"Wow..." He himself felt creepy, and his strength increased dramatically.
Even in normal combat mode, half defense and half attack, the normal energy level is 30X. With a hammer, it is enough to reach 60X.
Of course, it is not easy to reach this level of evolution. The gene seeds used in previous evolutions were all top-level ones.
The conventional energy level is close to twice the development progress, which is almost the norm. There is also a liberated form and various weapons can be used.
In Ryan's case, although the development progress is only about 30%, the regular energy level should be able to reach about 60X.
Theoretically, you can arm wrestle him head-on.
"But this is just the beginning..." Li Ming's eyes flickered, and he was eager to try: "Ryan..."
Ryan's current strength will definitely have a breakthrough after being strengthened by alchemical substances.
Going to see Ryan now was not a wise choice, but it involved a lot of things, not only did Ryan want to fight, he also wanted to.
To create a future for the Mechanical Royal Court, with his current strength, he no longer needs to hide his support for the Mechanical Royal Court.
X-level strength has become normalized.
He needs to let go completely, expand continuously, and gain a large enough market share. After all, there are still many things that need to be upgraded.
Tank guards and mechanical guards each require one billion star coins, as well as various control objects.
And Ryan was standing in front of him.
"But we have to add a layer of insurance."
Back on the Shadow, Ford and Robin looked at him obscurely, seeming to want to say something but stopping themselves.
"Suzaku, adjust direction, sail at full speed, and return to the Mechanical Royal Court." Li Mingze gave the order directly.
Ford's heart skipped a beat, and without caring about anything else, he hurriedly asked, "Master Qinglong?"
"The teacher has finished his work, let me go over and deal with it first." Li Ming said concisely.
Ford and Robin looked at each other and couldn't help but feel excited. They were finally going to see the elegance of His Excellency Qinglong.
Ignoring the two of them, Li Ming returned to the room, opened the Black Hole Network, and communicated with a contact in the identity of Qinglong, which lasted for a long time.
"That's about it."
He breathed a sigh of relief, and then tried again. The development rate slowed down again, and the magnitude was far beyond Li Ming's imagination.
"I estimate that it may take two or three months to develop 1%..." He was secretly shocked.
………
Nearly two months have passed since Ryan arrived at the Mechanical Royal Court, and the surroundings of the Royal Court have changed drastically.
The surroundings were crowded with many plunderers who came to join in the fun. From a distance, the flashing lights of spaceships were intertwined with each other.
And more people are flying spacecraft to observe with optical eyepieces from farther away.
The news media had already heard about this, but most of them were official media. After all, this was a chaotic place with no laws.
Many interstellar citizens who wanted to join in the fun were robbed along the way, and many civilizations were ordering their citizens not to come to the chaotic star gap at will.
The empire was already in the spotlight during this period, and Prince Ryan's sudden action made many people wonder whether this was the empire's instruction.
At the same time, whether Qinglong's delay in showing up was due to fear or other reasons has also caused widespread discussion.
"Hey, the stargate has stopped wide-area transmission. A large-scale fleet has arrived, squeezing the space channel?"
Many people at the scene clearly understood the operating principles of the star gate. When they noticed that the small spaceships that kept pouring out of the star gate suddenly stopped, they realized that something was wrong.
Many people looked over with anticipation, until they saw a giant dark golden battleship and a frigate slowly squeeze out of the star gate, with an energy track extending from the front like a sharp blade.
"Golden Hunting Blade, this is the Imperial Royal Warship, Prince Kostart has arrived."
When they found out it wasn't Qinglong, many people were disappointed, but then they started to grumble.
"The Empire has only just arrived? They are here to support Prince Ryan, right? There are already two princes here."
"The Empire is still powerful. Even though people on the internet are shouting about its decline, if we really meet in person, we still have to call him Big Brother..."
"The arrival of the two princes has put too much pressure on Qinglong."
Prince Kostart's warship came out of the star gate. No one dared to resist wherever it passed. They consciously gave up their position and docked on the side.
His Royal Highness the Prince did not show up, did not make any announcement, and remained silent.
Ryan opened his eyes and glanced at them, a little sarcastic, "Here you are, even if Adam hates me, he still has to consider the face of the empire."
"Qinglong is already the weaker party, and the Mechanics Association doesn't seem to have any intention of supporting him." Many people were discussing this in the wide area channel.
"Ryan came prepared, and the Empire has also entered the scene. It is wise for Azure Dragon not to show up."
With the arrival of Prince Costa, many people psychologically stood on Qinglong's side.
Qinglong has a neither-good-nor-bad impression in the interstellar world, and has no biased deeds, but most interstellar citizens have a natural dislike for bullying.
People have begun to think that there is no need for Qinglong to show up, and discussions are endless.
"You don't even have a mechanical body to carry you in your true form? You don't even dare to show your face? Prince Ryan didn't say he had to fight him, did he?"
"How much are you betting on Azure Dragon appearing? You're lying here. If a mechanical carrier shows up, Ryan will definitely say he's disrespectful. What will you do with Azure Dragon?"
Black Hole Network naturally would not miss this event and had already started trading.
Will Qinglong appear, when will he appear, will the two fight, and who will win and who will lose if they fight?
You can choose whatever you want.
"Prince Kolstadt is here too." In a flat spaceship that was very close, several virtual projection dramas gathered here.
The Mechanical Soul Master was also among them, still appearing as a carrier. He was very dissatisfied: "It's an old habit of the Empire to bully others by taking advantage of their power. They are afraid that something bad will happen to Ryan."
"He is a prince after all. Even if there are internal conflicts, he still represents the face of the empire." Someone said. It was Sheffield, who was also in these virtual projections.
"It's a bit surprising that you're here just now."
A burly figure spoke. His skin was crimson, and he was two or three meters tall, like a small giant. He was the planet collector—Barbarol. He had arrived in person and looked a little impatient.
"Who cares? I only care about when Qinglong will come. I'm not really scared, am I?"
"We are just avoiding a fight. Ryan has come with bad intentions. Who knows what he is planning?" Another man shook his head. He had a slender figure, lavender skin covered with dense symbols. He was Anduin, the Lord of the Star Gate.
"Afraid?" The Soul Mechanical Master sneered, "I don't think he's afraid. Perhaps he doesn't take it to heart at all."
"You seem to have confidence in him." Barbaro glanced over and said nonchalantly, "I heard that you and the God of Creation went to his house before and suffered a loss."
"I said it was just a technical exchange." The Mechanical Soul Master was dissatisfied.
"Technical exchange?" Barbaroel was clearly unconcerned, laughing. "I don't care. No matter how many excuses you make, you're afraid to not show up."
"But it's normal for you secretive mechanics."
He fired a cannon, and the Mechanical Soul Master was clearly unhappy. "Barbarol, when have I ever offended you? Do you want to fight?"
"Heh..." He snorted indifferently, "You haven't offended me, but the Machinists Association has. But you won't be able to keep running around for much longer."
The two of them argued here, and the God of Creation remained silent, musing in his heart, "I don't know to what extent Ryan has reached under the catalysis of the alchemical substance."
"However, there's no need to throw out the news of his star-killing deeds so quickly."
He also wanted to find out the situation of Qinglong, and it was most appropriate to have Ryan rushing ahead.
Then, he sighed inwardly: "It's a pity. Qinglong is a master craftsman of the Mechanics Association after all. Being oppressed by the Imperial Prince has some impact on him."
"Which path of evolution doesn't rely entirely on oneself? You mechanics are the only ones who rely on external things. What kind of people are you?" Barbarol was very rude. The Mechanical Soul Master was about to challenge the other party to a battle, and the quarrel was fierce.
"The Federation has also sent people, but why is there no movement in the Sea of Stars?" Sheffield suddenly asked, "What is the Star Cluster Republican Alliance doing?"
"I don't know. It seems something happened internally and it's under investigation. I haven't paid much attention to it." Anduin shook his head. He had only heard about it occasionally.
The creator's eyes flickered slightly.
…
"The Empire has indeed entered the fray. I'm afraid they're planning to use Lord Qinglong to establish their authority and reverse their declining public opinion, while also suppressing the Mechanics Association."
Ulrich, who was nowhere to be found, looked at the live broadcast with a grim expression.
He had a premonition of the Empire's entry, but it had not yet expressed its stance, which gave him a glimmer of hope.
Monroe said helplessly: "If it was just Ryan, it would be fine. The Empire... after all, has a strong foundation."
He asked, "Is there any news from Lord Qinglong?"
"Hmm..." Ulrich opened the Black Hole Network, his expression suddenly startled, and he said in astonishment: "Twenty minutes ago, Li Ming sent me a message, asking me to bet all my assets in the Black Hole Room that Lord Qinglong would appear."
Monroe looked bewildered: "Showing up at this time?"
They were puzzled. Even when a fight broke out in reality earlier, they were only facing Ryan, but now Prince Costat was also here.
Is it appropriate to show up now?
"The odds are only 1.1:1.2, no wonder Li Ming didn't stop me from recharging." Ulrich found the betting page.
Depositing money into the black hole network and withdrawing it through official money laundering channels will result in a handling fee of up to 30%.
Even if you have your own channels, the discount rate is only between 15% and 20%. With such odds, you can't make any money by depositing money to place a bet.
…
"Hmm? What's that little spaceship doing? Heading straight for the core?"
The wide area channel suddenly became lively.
There is a core area outside the Mechanical Royal Court. That is where Ryan is. There are no other spaceships nearby and no one dares to approach.
But now, an inconspicuous little spaceship stood out from the crowd and flew past unsteadily.
"Could that be..."
More than one person thought of this, and the eyes of the many plunderers present suddenly lit up and felt their blood gradually boiling.
No one dares to tease Prince Ryan. This is the Chaos Star Gap, a place without law.
Ryan slowly opened his eyes, then frowned slightly, as if he saw the figure inside through the hull of the spacecraft.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the small spaceship slowly stopped, the hatch opened, and a figure in a mecha walked out.
Everyone was shocked!
"This... is Li Ming?" The Mechanical Soul Master was surprised, looking at the familiar mecha.
Qinglong No. 1 was the first mecha worn by Qinglong. It was later given to his students and has been worn by Li Ming ever since.
How could Li Ming be sent here under such circumstances?
Everyone was wondering, confused and puzzled, that the status of the two was completely unequal.
Is Qinglong really not afraid that Ryan will kill Li Ming directly?
Or, is there no one inside?
"I'm here." The spiritual waves surged out, calm and peaceful, sweeping across the entire venue.
"There's actually someone operating a mecha. Is it Qinglong? This is only an S-class mecha, right?"
"There must be someone here. If there's no one, the signal will be cut off and this mecha will become scrap metal."
Everyone was even more surprised, looking at each other in bewilderment. Spiritual fluctuations could only be transmitted by living beings. Was it really Qinglong? Or was it someone else?
Ryan seemed a little surprised as well, and then his brows knitted together, his mind fluctuating, reflecting his emotions better than his expression. He was cold and indifferent, "Are you really Qinglong? You don't take me seriously, so you come here wearing such shabby stuff?"
"That's enough." His mental fluctuations remained calm and gentle.
Ryan's expression became restrained, expressionless, and suddenly ferocious, "Is that enough!?"
In an instant, his pupils shone with an incomparable brilliance, like two gemstones. Two beams of blue-gold light shot out with a blazing brilliance, swirling with blinding lightning, scorching the void, creating ripples.
boom!
In full view of everyone, the beam of light directly hit the mecha, and the boiling blue-gold energy sphere quickly expanded like a violent little sun.
The energy on the surface rolled and surged like raging waves, spreading wildly in all directions and causing widespread radar alarms.
"Hmm? This mecha..." Ryan narrowed his eyes and stared at the expanding energy ball.
