Chapter 463: We are one family! Descendants of the Titans
"Dad, Dad!" Seth was clearly used to this. He took a quick step and suddenly hugged the sturdy arm from the side. "Listen to me, listen to me, these are all important people!"
"What big shot?" The other party didn't listen at all. He threw Seth against the wall with a flick of his hand, knocking over the shelf next to it, and the debris rolled all over the floor.
"He's really a big shot, he... he is Qinglong's student, this... is an even bigger big shot!" Seth got anxious and shouted loudly.
These are all important people who can kill people. Even if we destroy their entire star gate node, there probably won’t be any trouble.
"Qinglong's student?" Old Fate was bewildered, then looked at Li Ming doubtfully.
And Florian, his breathing becoming more rapid and his face becoming more red.
Seth breathed a sigh of relief and was about to feel proud, but he suddenly felt a black screen in front of his eyes and a slap as big as a palm fan landed on his face.
Bang—his eyes went dark and he almost fainted.
Old Fate gnashed his teeth, his face extremely grim. "You can even make up such a lie. I think you're getting bolder and bolder. Rather than dying out there one day, it's better for me to kill my own relatives for the sake of justice!"
After the slap, Seth's teeth were broken, his cheeks swelled up, his speech became incoherent, and his face looked dazed.
Old Fate then looked at Li Ming and the others and said in a deep voice, "My friends, I don't know how much money my good-for-nothing son has taken from you. I will return it all to you. If you want to eat, you'd better go out and line up first."
This person is quite principled, Li Ming smiled slightly.
After a while, they sat in the only two private rooms.
Seth stood nearby, applying an ice pack to his face, muttering, "No tears until you see the coffin."
After a while, my father came in with a big plate in his hand. On it was the most famous roasted Star Flow black snake. The surface was black and it didn’t look very good.
It was obvious that he seemed to be trying to force a smile, but in the end he gave up and placed the food in front of the people in front of him. He said in a muffled voice, "Sorry to bother you."
Florian reached into his arms with his withered hand and pulled out a gold coin, placing it on the table. "This is the recommendation coin for Black Prison Academy. With this, you can ignore any requirements for admission."
"This child is not too old, he can still be saved."
Fett's eyes lit up as he picked it up and carefully put it in his arms.
Seth's throat rolled and his face stiffened. Black Prison Academy was the most rigorous academy among several nearby civilizations. It was also very famous. Every graduate would be snatched away by various legions.
Rumor has it that he often wails at night, all of which is the sorrow of his students.
After the two left the room, Li Ming peeled off the dark roasted meat. The meat was pink and rosy, and the stimulating flavor spread across his taste buds. He couldn't help but exclaim in admiration: "It really tastes great. No wonder there's such a long line here."
"Sir Florian, and this..." He looked at Clyde. Until now, Florian had not told him Clyde's name.
"My name is Clyde." Clyde stood up and extended his hand politely.
Li Ming also stood up and the two shook hands.
"Sir Li Ming, can you..." Clyde hesitated, holding the smart terminal.
"Oh, a photo, huh?" Li Ming looked at the other person's smartphone and said, "No problem."
The two walked to the side, and Clyde looked excited. "I have a friend who really admires you. If she saw this photo, she would definitely be very happy."
Li Ming glanced at him, his hands itching to draw some blood, but out of consideration for Florian, he didn't do it.
The two fiddled with it for a while before Florian spoke: "Li Ming, could you please meet with Lord Qinglong?"
Li Ming suddenly understood: "Okay, I'll inform the teacher right away."
He pretended to close his eyes, and the next moment, the tank guard attached himself, the vest was switched, and Qinglong came online.
Then, Florian tapped the table with his dry branch-like fingers, and invisible ripples slowly expanded, covering the three people.
Clyde was a little reserved and sat aside. Florian spoke first, "I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that His Excellency Qinglong also passed by here."
As soon as Florian finished speaking, Li Ming said, "Don't doubt it, sir. It's just that the stargate node was bombed, so I can only transit here."
"Sir, are you going to the Red River Star Stream too? Is it because of the Mechanics Association?" Florian suddenly realized.
"Also? Do you want to get involved as well?"
Li Ming keenly caught the other party's tone and couldn't help but ask back.
Florian looked hesitant and thought to himself that he wanted to continue speaking along with Qinglong's words.
But when I think about the fact that the two of them might work together in the future, if I’m not honest now, there will probably be endless troubles.
So, he carefully considered his words: "My destination and Your Excellency Qinglong's goal may not be the same."
"Oh?" Li Ming's eyes flashed slightly. Through the tank guard, his gaze fell on Lelaide next to him. He wondered secretly, not knowing whether there was any connection between them.
He asked knowingly, "The lifeform we ambushed today seems to be one I've never seen before in the interstellar universe. Even their species doesn't seem to match their identity, and their methods are somewhat peculiar. The castle seems to be connected to itself. I wonder what their origins are?"
Florian shook his head: "I'm not quite sure about the other party's purpose."
I really don’t know, or it’s hard to say?
Li Ming's heart moved slightly, but he didn't ask any more questions about this matter. He simply got to the point, "Your Excellency mentioned before that the information should be the blood of the world."
Florian responded, "Don't worry, sir. It's the blood of the world."
Li Ming immediately asked, "Okay, in that case, should we settle the reward first?"
He had been thinking about this information for a long time, and thought that he would have to wait for a long time, wait for some opportunities, and spend some money before he could get it.
But Florian looked hesitant: "Actually, you may have to wait a while. The information about the World Blood is not yet available."
After saying this, Li Ming's voice deepened considerably. "The Holy Revolutionary Army has always had a good reputation, so I didn't hesitate to help you before."
Florian was extremely embarrassed and simply confessed, "Actually, this is what happened. We were originally planning to give you the information on the World Blood."
"Give it to me?" Li Ming did not comment.
Florian sighed and slowly explained, "As a member of the Ten-Man Council, you are naturally aware that the Higher Life Forms Alliance has launched an attack on us."
"The situation is serious this time. The higher life forms are trying to establish their authority, and with the Empire's help, they are aiming to completely destroy us."
"But neither Your Excellency nor Anduin voted in favor, so we wanted to win Your Excellency over. The bargaining chip we originally planned to offer was the World's Blood."
Li Ming was quite surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that there would be such a thing in secret. It was good that he could demonstrate his own value in united front work.
Florian shook his head secretly. This was the original price and it has been used up now.
If you want to win over Qinglong, you may have to pay more.
"Your Excellency's words are sincere, but..." Li Ming's voice was calm, "How long do I need to wait? What if Your Excellency still fails to obtain relevant information about the World Blood?"
Who knows whether what Florian said is true or not, Li Ming will not believe it easily.
Florian was not surprised. If he were in Qinglong's position, he would also have doubts.
He glanced at Clyde beside him, and then Clyde suddenly became confused and could not hear anything, but he had already had this experience once, so he just ignored it and continued to eat.
"Sir Qinglong, do you know about the Pioneer?" Florian asked in a deep voice.
Li Ming's heart suddenly jumped, and he had a premonition in his heart, "Could it be that you are..."
"Yes, I am the guide." Florian nodded and took out a black ring, similar to the one in Li Ming's hand.
The guide, one of the core four members of the Pioneers, is Florian?
Li Ming's expression became very interesting, but also vaguely reasonable.
This really reveals the truth. Li Ming pondered this, but then thought of the Blood-Damaged One and couldn't help but ask, "Did you establish the Pioneers?"
"No." Florian shook his head. "I was secretly invited into the Pioneers. When I joined, the Bloodfallen and the Navigator were already there."
"At first I was very wary of this organization, but after a long time, I gradually began to trust it."
Li Ming pondered for a moment, "So, you don't know the identities of these two people, but you know the identity of the other guy?"
Florian explained: "I didn't know that the Forger was also secretly invited by the Bloodfallen and the Navigator."
Li Ming pondered, "Over the years, have you never speculated about the identities of the other three people?"
"I've speculated, but we don't often take action," Florian said helplessly. "Including me, we all act very cautiously."
Adam is really ruthless. Since Florian is the guide, if the navigator is not his man, he is probably someone who is extremely hostile to the empire, and the forger should be similar.
Through the pioneers, the enemies of the empire were connected, and finally they were wiped out in one fell swoop to forge supreme authority.
Then what role do I play?
Li Ming thought about this again, but still couldn't figure it out.
"So, sir, please rest assured. I am absolutely sincere, and the Holy Revolutionary Army is equally sincere. Even if we cannot obtain the World Blood, there will be other ways to compensate." Florian said, revealing his identity not only to reassure Qinglong.
It also gave him a sense of "comradeship", which then radiated to the Holy Revolutionary Army, providing a basis for in-depth cooperation.
Li Ming did not comment. The pioneers were still working on the Star of Eternal Silence and keeping an eye on the progress of the empire.
Adam is still useful to the pioneers, so even if they are discovered, they will have to keep him for the time being.
He had no sense of belonging to the pioneers, they were just tools, and he would not have any thoughts about them because of their identities.
But Florian's attitude made him not mind waiting a little longer.
"In that case, why don't we go to the Red River Star Stream together." Li Ming took the initiative to suggest.
"That's exactly what I meant." Florian agreed decisively.
No one knew what methods the ambushers had used. He had been careful enough, but he was still targeted. He felt much more at ease when he was with Qinglong.
It was Clyde... He was suspicious, wondering if the other party had noticed Clyde's abnormality.
After the tank guard was lifted, Li Ming was dazed for a moment, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally, I can eat."
As soon as he finished speaking, he looked down and saw that the plates were empty. Clyde looked embarrassed and said, "I'll ask Dad to add some more..."
…
"What the hell is going on!"
Outside the star gate node, the spirit leader was angry, staring at the crystal ball in front of him, with a cold light in his single eye.
"We found the bloodline of Saint King Terrax, but he didn't even trigger the King Trial."
The Sacred Crystal is integral to the Eternal Throne and can only be activated using special methods to reveal secrets related to the Terraxians.
A few years ago, the start of the Trial to Become a King was revealed, followed by the awakening of the bloodline of Holy King Terrax, a powerful life form who was the only one to pass the Trial to Become a King.
This before and after made everyone think that the person who was undergoing the trial to become a king was of the same bloodline as Saint King Terrax.
But the fact is not so. The bloodline of the Holy King is important, but the trial to become a king is the most important thing.
That is the highest authority that can inherit all the holy castles. All the secrets hidden by Terrax and all the inheritance left behind will be open to him.
The two men behind him looked at each other, and the taller one whispered, "Should we break this portal and trap him here?"
"No." The Spirit Leader shook his head. "The Azure Dragon has a high status and can gather many people to help us. We can't capture him in a short time. If we make a move and get caught, we will be in trouble."
The strength of this star field is beyond imagination. If they reveal their identities, they will be besieged and hunted in an instant.
"Moreover, someone in this star field actually opened the Holy Castle. This is unbelievable..." His face changed. He had learned more information through the black hole network and was becoming more and more surprised.
"Then we..." the tall man hesitated, "what should we do next?"
"Wait..." The spirit leader uttered a single word, "They are in the light, and we are in the dark. This is our advantage."
…
After finishing their meal, they simply rested here. There were many empty rooms in the store. The Star Flow Black Snake tasted good, but Li Ming hadn't eaten enough.
Florian went out, ready to use some means to leave here as soon as possible.
Outside the room, the lobby was noisy, and most people were discussing one thing.
"...The castle suddenly disappeared, but a lot of people were kidnapped..."
"It has been reported. The garrison will arrive in two days at the latest..."
"It's really scary. Luckily I had something else to do and didn't buy a ticket to go in..."
"I heard that a few people came out at that time, but their positions were unclear and no one knew who they were..."
The sudden disappearance of the castle and the disappearance of a large number of spectators have caused widespread discussion, making people panic and wanting to leave as soon as possible.
After listening for a while, Li Ming returned to his room. Although it was narrow, it was clean and was cleaned regularly.
Glancing at the smart terminal, Reynolds asked him where he was and how long it would take.
"How hasty..." Li Ming couldn't help but shake his head, thinking that Reynolds and Mikhail would definitely be dissatisfied with him coming here alone.
I have to find a way to fool these two old guys.
He simply responded and put it away.
The force field bounced back, and he took out a piece of metal debris from the folding space--
[Trial of Glory - Special Type (Severely Damaged): An instrument restored by the descendants of the Titans. In the Titan era, passing the trial can obtain high rewards.
Control conditions: 50 million metal energy
Control Ability - Simulated Trial: Collect information about living beings and start a simulated trial. No rewards are given.
