Chapter 483 The Vigorous Young Man
The powerful impact caused the surrounding space and time to distort violently, and the light spread everywhere, trying to completely swallow up the entire area.
The Yuan Clan didn't even have time to let out a scream before they were overwhelmed by this terrifying force and disappeared without a trace, leaving behind only a chaotic energy aftermath that slowly dissipated.
The incident happened suddenly, and everyone felt a shock in their hearts, and all that was left before their eyes was a scattered energy track.
The last bit of essence left is to kill this thing.
Li Ming vaguely saw that above the mechanical head, there was a shadow disintegrating, which seemed to be the Star Spirit.
Mikhail urged again, and everyone gathered their minds and carefully left the area along the cracks.
The initial collapse of the space-time isolation state has ended, and now only the entangled space-time storms remain, and their power has actually decreased a lot.
"Huh? Why is the energy so active?"
When Mikhail came to the outside world, he immediately felt something was wrong. In the surrounding starry sky, there was already a torrent of energy crashing, and lights of various colors converged, and the calm was no longer there.
Their trip didn't take too long. Logically speaking, it was impossible for the torrent to destroy this place so quickly.
Affected by the ruins of the Holy Spirit Civilization?
This thought was only a fleeting thought, and everyone fled far away in one breath. Under the desolate starry sky, the fuzzy area entangled by the storm of time and space was collapsing.
Everyone was silent for a moment, just watching the collapse before them, watching the once powerful Holy Spirit Civilization complete its final journey.
Whether it was Mikhail, Gonzalez, or even Li Ming, they all felt a sense of disappointment.
The Holy Spirit Civilization is more powerful than any of the three major civilizations. It is even hard to say whether the combined forces can compete with them.
There were even ultimate life forms, but they still turned into cosmic dust.
They are all high-level figures in their respective civilizations and can even influence the decision-makers, so naturally they have more thoughts in their minds.
Not only the Holy Spirit civilization, but also the Terrax civilization.
And countless equally powerful civilizations, whether they knew it or not, had disappeared.
For a moment, I felt that the universe was as vast as the sky, and I was like an ant.
When they die, or their civilization disappears, no one will even remember them.
The universe was dead silent. No one knew how much time had passed until the storm of time and space subsided a little and everyone's minds calmed down a little.
But then, Li Ming felt a pressure coming towards him. It was Gonzalez, who looked at Li Ming indifferently.
Li Ming's heart moved slightly, and he vaguely sensed an unusual atmosphere.
Only then did he realize that the positions of Costat and others had surrounded him from all sides.
Further away, the mechanical army belonging to Mikhail and Reynolds surged in like silver dragons and quickly surrounded the place.
"Li Ming..." Gonzalez said indifferently, "The thing is already in your hands."
Li Ming remained silent, the tank guard possessed him, the mechanical guard emerged, and then he carried out [Guard Armament]. The electric arc exploded, covering the starry sky, and a powerful aura burst out.
Six mechanical bodies?
Li Ming had hidden two more before? He's such a thief.
Everyone focused their minds slightly, feeling the powerful aura of the burly mechanical body in front of them.
They couldn't help but feel fearful, as the strength of this mechanical body seemed to be even stronger than they had imagined.
However, with just this one mechanical body, even if everyone joins forces, they can't cause any trouble.
"Are you guys trying to rob us?" Li Ming asked in a deep voice.
"Contact your teacher, I believe he will understand what we mean." Gonzalez said indifferently. He had already come out of the ruins and was too lazy to argue with Li Ming.
"A bunch of bastards!" Reynolds said angrily. A large number of mechanical bodies had surrounded everyone, the muzzles were charged, and his X-level mechanical body also flew out of his body and stood beside him.
"Reynolds..." Gonzalez said indifferently, then glanced at Mikhail, "Don't you have a consensus?"
"Who told you that he and I are in the same boat?" Reynolds sneered, "Come on, let's see who has the last laugh today."
Mikhail remained silent, and the mechanical bodies of both sides were clearly separated.
"We're not trying to steal." Costat shook his head. "We just want to do research together. Tell your teacher, he'll understand."
None of them wanted to argue with Li Ming, partly because they didn't think he had the decision-making power.
On the other hand, it is because young people are more impulsive. If they suffer a little oppression, they may shout and threaten to kill themselves, making it difficult to communicate with them.
They all came from this age, so they naturally understand.
As soon as Qinglong comes online, he will weigh the current situation and naturally make the best choice.
"Joint research?" Li Ming sneered secretly. That thing has been integrated into his control system, how could it be possible to research it.
He pondered in his heart, secretly guessing the strength of both sides.
Due to the substantial increase in development progress, coupled with the superposition with [Guards Armament], the strongest burst is estimated to be close to 800X.
It was far beyond everyone's expectations, but even so, he did not want to face the siege, and he was not absolutely sure that he could crush everyone.
While he was thinking about it, the combat system was reporting that Mikhail had quietly connected to his channel.
"Li Ming, I can help you solve the current problem, but I have a request." Mikhail said straight to the point.
"Oh?" Li Ming remained noncommittal. "Tell me about it?"
"I want the black cylindrical metal object you found in the warehouse." Mikhail emphasized, "Don't ask what it is. If you promise to give it to me, I will help you immediately."
This guy really saw through the origin of that thing. Li Ming couldn't help but sneer in his heart. Mikhail is also an old fox. He is trying to make a profit by swinging back and forth.
He already has the [Race Creator], and this prototype of the Mechanical Seed is indeed of no use to him.
Mikhail further advised, "All I want is a trivial little thing, but what they want is different."
He never intended to join forces with the three major civilizations, and he knew it very clearly. Gonzalez said it was a joint research by the four parties.
But how could they resist the power of the three major civilizations?
In the end, these three master craftsmen would most likely be eliminated from the research ranks, rather than researching something unknown.
It would be better to get the real benefits. I didn’t even get the prototype of the mechanical seed or the forging hammer.
"You seem to have me in your grasp..."
Without responding to Mikhail's words, Li Ming looked around, and faint mental fluctuations emanated from him.
Costat said solemnly, "It's just a joint research, not excluding your teacher. Besides, you've already made a lot of money this time, so there's no need to eat all the cake alone."
"But what if I insist on eating alone?" Li Ming said slowly.
Everyone couldn't help but frown. This was the trouble with young people. They had to fight for this.
"We don't want to attack you. We can talk to a place where we can contact Qinglong." Costat advised, but before he finished speaking, his eye twitched.
The burly mechanical body in front of him had already moved, and the giant hammer swept through the void, bringing up a series of phantoms, and the target was Gonzalez.
The surrounding space was torn apart, and the power contained in the purple giant hammer was extremely terrifying. The surrounding energy formed circles of energy ripples visible to the naked eye, which was terrifying.
Gonzalez's face changed drastically. Qinglong's sudden attack was unexpected.
But he was always alert in his heart and reacted quickly. He raised his arms, and the mysterious purple lines spread rapidly as if they had life, covering his entire upper limbs in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, powerful energy began to rise from the surface of his body. This energy was so dense that it was almost material, constantly flowing and converging around his body.
It turned into a substantial armor, fitting tightly to his body, seamlessly, and exuding an indestructible aura.
This is physical armor, not condensed energy.
His evolutionary path is called "Soldier". At every level of life, he can integrate external weapons made of special materials to strengthen himself and bring various enhancements.
In this defensive state, he felt that he could block even Lancaster's peak attack.
However, when the purple giant hammer in Qinglong's hand fell, his mind went blank and he felt an incredible and powerful force.
Pure power to the extreme!
In an instant, Gonzalez's purple armor exploded, and the fragments flew like fireworks, flashing a final sad beauty under the reflection of the light, but it was vulnerable.
How could it be...
Gonzalez only felt that his spiritual body was shaken out of his body, and his armor and body were pierced and crushed by this tremendous force with a devastating attitude.
Then his body shot out like a cannonball, piercing through several energy torrents and leaving a black trail.
"This..." Everyone was stunned.
After all, Gonzalez is the strongest man after Lancaster, so how could he be knocked away like this?
How come the combat effectiveness of this mechanical body has increased by several levels?
"Stop!" Lancaster's mind was boiling. Naturally, he couldn't just stand by and watch. Holding the black scepter, he blocked Li Ming's way forward.
boom!
The purple hammer and the black scepter collided violently, like two stars colliding.
Above the giant hammer, purple light flashed wildly like lightning, and each ray of light contained endless violent power.
The black scepter exuded a deep dark aura. Where the two clashed, the space was violently distorted, and shocking black cracks appeared. Powerful energy shock waves spread wildly in all directions.
The giant hammer and the scepter were in a stalemate, wrestling with each other, sparks flying, like gorgeous fireworks blooming in the darkness.
But after a moment, the burly mechanical body still stood in its place.
But Lancaster flew backwards with an extremely ugly look on his face.
Everyone quickly gathered together, holding various weapons in their hands, and looked at the mechanical bodies in the field vigilantly.
"Haha...good boy." Reynolds laughed, and the mechanical army around him became restless.
"How can he be so strong..." Lancaster rushed back quickly, his arms trembling and his heart heavy.
This far exceeded their expectations of this mechanical body. His own peak energy level was close to 600x, and with customized weapons, he was much stronger.
However, he just lost to his opponent in a head-on fight.
Although the battle is not enough to crush him, if he really wants to defeat the opponent, he will probably have to pay a heavy price, not to mention Reynolds, who is causing trouble.
This is different from their plan. Taking action is the last option, and this is not the real body of Qinglong.
What they want more is to cooperate smoothly, but the current environment of the Red River Star Stream is special, and Qinglong seems to be unable to be contacted.
Li Ming is young and energetic, and he might really fight them to the death.
"What a pity, he wasn't killed. His armor wasn't energy mimicry..." Li Ming secretly felt sorry.
Gonzalez flew back staggeringly, half of his body covered with cracks, his eyes full of fear for him.
If he attacked by surprise, with his current strength, he would probably be killed in an instant, but such opportunities were rare.
Mikhail's face was gloomy and uncertain. The explosive power of Qinglong's mechanical body was beyond his expectations.
There was obvious hesitation on everyone's face. He didn't want to join the siege and completely break up with Qinglong. He just wanted to get the prototype.
But Li Ming seemed determined to fight for this.
Costat frowned. If they continued the siege, with Lancaster as the leader, Cedric as the main assistant, Mikhail as the support, and others assisting from the side, there was still a chance of winning.
Once Gonzalez's injury recovers a little, the chances of winning should be better.
But if Li Ming is determined to fight to the death with this mechanical body, there is no guarantee that he will not be able to take away one or two people.
"Sir Mikhail, you can study that thing with Reynolds. Do you want to come?"
The situation seemed to be in a stalemate, and Li Ming communicated with Mikhail again.
"Qinglong really knows what that thing is, and Li Ming even knows it." Mikhail's heart sank. Researching together with Reynolds was really not what he expected.
But the current situation seems to be an option.
Li Ming didn't want to fight with these people either, and he was not sure of winning.
The Covenant is a loose alliance of multiple civilizations. Gonzalez only comes from one of the civilizations, and as the instigator, he acted without hesitation.
The others each represent the civilization behind them. It is of no benefit to start a real fight or even kill one or two of them openly.
During the stalemate, Mikhail suddenly moved. In Reynolds's contemptuous eyes, he flew to Li Ming. Although he didn't say anything, his attitude was self-evident.
"You really are a playboy," Reynolds sneered.
Seeing Mikhail's change of sides, everyone felt relieved.
With this increase and decrease, the strength of both sides can be said to be almost balanced.
If we can achieve balance, there is no need to continue the siege.
"Your Excellencies, there is no need to continue." Li Ming finally spoke.
Everyone was silent. They felt a little uncomfortable being intimidated by Li Ming, but they didn't say anything.
Gonzalez hid behind everyone and dared not show his head.
"As expected of Qinglong's student..." Kostart spoke first, without a trace of shame. "In that case, you will keep the things in the ruins."
In other words, Li Ming doesn't care about the faces of these people.
If any other party gets the thing, he will join forces with others to take action together.
"It was originally acquired by Li Ming. What do you mean by safekeeping?" Reynolds sneered. "I really can't get along with you guys. Forget it. The ruins are gone. Everyone, go find yourselves."
His words were harsh and several people frowned.
Costat pretended not to hear and looked deeper. "Are you leaving just like that? Something big seems to have happened deep in the Red River Star Stream. Do you want to go take a look?"
