Chapter 562: Qinglong is nothing, what we are afraid of is Li Ming
While absorbing the genetic essence, he chatted casually with the three people in front of him.
To Li Ming's surprise, although the three expressed regret, they kept their mouth shut and did not directly reveal that it was Adam who was behind it.
It was not until Li Ming said it himself that the three of them looked dejected.
"You can guess it yourself, but we can't tell you." Night Owl shook his head with a hint of self-mockery. "We... rely on the Empire for our survival."
When he said "we", he was referring not only to himself, but also to the civilization behind him.
According to the information Li Ming had just collected, this guy's real name was Nuel, and he came from an advanced civilization.
All three of them had a deep love for their own civilization, and even in the end, they begged Li Ming not to vent his anger on their civilization.
Li Ming did not give them any guarantees and just sent them on their way.
Zorro, who was standing next to him, looked at the corpse on the ground with a complicated expression: "I didn't expect that such a person would be so passionate about his own civilization."
Not only did he find it difficult to understand this emotion, he also believed that life forms at this level no longer cared about civilization and only cared about themselves.
Li Ming had the mechanical guards dispose of the bodies and shook his head, saying, "These people were carefully selected by the Empire. If they didn't have a strong bond with civilization, they wouldn't have been promoted to Level X."
"Promote to X-level?" Zoro was stunned. S-level was an unattainable dream for him, not to mention X-level which stood at the top of evolution.
Li Ming took the scarlet compass handed to him by the mechanical guard and was surprised that this thing had no control prompts but could absorb special energy.
He casually explained, "Actually, based on the development potential of these people, it's difficult for them to become X-level life forms."
"However, in order to expand their influence, the three major civilizations will select suitable individuals from suitable civilizations and forcibly elevate them to level X through special methods."
"The benefits of this to those civilizations are undeniable. As for the three major civilizations, they gain an X-level life form that they can assign at will. The civilizations behind them will also be greatly restricted."
Zoro swallowed his saliva. The X-level life form... why did it feel... like a toy.
But then he realized that this was a difference in narrative stance. Li Ming was a student of Boss Qinglong and had great development potential, so he naturally didn't care about these people.
The one who commands these people is the supreme ruler of the empire, so they are naturally tools in the eyes of the other party.
But in reality, these people are still the pinnacle of the universe, an existence that is beyond the reach of most people.
"Wait here for a while, the royal court has sent a spaceship." Li Ming frowned slightly, and the blood color on the compass in his hand had basically faded.
The world's blood inside was less than half, and some of it was completely integrated with some kind of tissue and could not be absorbed.
He couldn't help but shake his head, and more mechanical bodies came out of his body, searching the entire spacecraft for remaining supplies.
At the same time, the characteristics of everyone are recorded and mimicked to prepare for Adam to contact them at any time.
He didn't want the Holy Emperor to think that his plan had failed for the time being.
This place was not far from the Mechanical Royal Court. In just half a day, several spaceships arrived and took them away in batches.
When returning to the Mechanical Royal Court, they also took a specially built hidden channel.
They were gone for too short a time, and the entire Mechanical Royal Court hadn't even noticed anything was wrong, and Li Ming had no intention of pursuing accountability.
This falls into the category of force majeure and no one can be blamed.
He just informed Ulrich according to the established plan and prepared to go to the dimensional world.
The spaceship is ready, and it is the highest-end model that the Mechanical Royal Court can currently produce.
"Shadow Shuttle..." In the spaceship dock, Ulrich pointed at the spaceship in front of him.
It is in the shape of an elongated shuttle, with each plane etched with dark golden patterns resembling a neural network, and the thruster array consists of twenty hexagonal nozzles.
The portholes use liquid metal film technology, and in non-combat mode they appear as jagged cracks running through the hull.
The deep dimensional world is at the third level of the macrocosmic space theory. It is not a horizontal distance, but belongs to a deeper level.
"I wish you all the best..." Ulrich nodded and watched the spacecraft sink into the passage.
At the other end of the passage is the dimensional base of the Mechanical Royal Court, located in a small dimensional world. There is nothing except the dry surface.
Li Ming seldom comes here. He took a quick glance and saw that the metal base stretched to the end of his sight, with a large number of mechanical bodies shuttling back and forth on dimensional spaceships.
The Shadow Shuttle's twenty thruster nozzles simultaneously shrank into pinholes, with dark red particle streams seeping out from each aperture.
These high-density propulsion materials form a continuously rotating gravitational lens ring, and every golden pattern on the surface of the hull is transformed into an energy conduit.
The pressure on the bow was diverted to the stern buffer layer, and silver-blue space folds were ejected from the center of the ring. These folds continued to devour the spacecraft itself during the extension process.
Suddenly, the entire spacecraft disappeared, and after sailing through a bizarre orbit, it arrived at the deep dimensional world.
This was Li Ming's first time here. He stood in front of the porthole, looking at the outside world, but could not see any solid matter.
There were only raging energy turbulences gnawing at and colliding with each other in the void, forming a huge liquid energy peak, but at the moment of reaching the peak, it vaporized into trillions of mutually repelling energy particles, and then rolled into an energy vortex of unknown magnitude.
Asphalt-like substances continuously precipitate from the center. The moment these black fluids come into contact with other energy bodies, they corrode them into vacuum zones with honeycomb structures.
"Dark matter flow..." Li Ming watched, if an S-level life form was caught in it, it would be doomed.
The danger of the deep dimensional world is greater than that of the outer area of the Red River Star Stream, but weaker than the core area, but its coverage area is extremely large.
He looked at the coordinates and realized that it would take more than half a month to reach the destination.
He has the latest news. After several contacts, both the Empire and the Pioneers have gradually figured out certain rules of the Star of Eternal Silence. The real fight for it will probably begin soon.
………
Deeper in the sky, energy fluids of various colors boil and converge, like several giant snakes mating, and can even give birth to energy fluids with completely new properties.
However, there is a special area here, illuminated by a bright blue light, and the coverage area is unknown how vast it is.
It seems ordinary, but if you look closely, you will find that as long as it is within the blue light, the activity level of those energy fluids decreases many times, as if in slow motion.
In a very far distance, a small spaceship was floating in a crimson energy ball.
"The Star of Eternal Silence has stopped again..."
The guide, Florian, hunched over, frowned, and looked out the porthole.
Nearly a year ago, at Qinglong's request, he came to the deep dimensional world.
At that time, the United Organization of Higher Life Forms was attacking the Holy Revolutionary Army in full swing, and he was not avoiding the war.
However, even if he was there, it would be of no use. The Holy Revolutionary Army was doomed to fail in its confrontation with the united organization of higher life forms. It would be better to focus on the Star of Eternal Silence.
"Staying at this distance won't irritate the Star of Eternal Silence," added the navigator, a middle-aged man with a gloomy face.
I have seen the Star of Eternal Silence too many times during this period, so I am not too excited.
The Forgers are naturally here as well, not interstellar humans, but Serens. Their most notable feature is the two extra arms born under their ribs.
He frowned and said, "It seems the Empire has prepared new methods. They once controlled the Eternal Silence Star for a long time. Perhaps they have found a way to prevent the Eternal Silence Star from escaping."
"Now is the right time to take action." Someone suddenly spoke from the other side. It was Blackbeard.
The navigator's eyes flickered slightly. Up to now, in the pursuit of the Star of Eternal Silence, S-level life forms have been of no use.
But Blackbeard is a special person. On the one hand, he is Qinglong's spy, and on the other hand, because...
The navigator looked in another direction with a hint of fear. There was a golden figure, the forbidden life form Klonoa.
Last time, Qinglong severed the cooperation between Chronoa and the Empire, which was already surprising enough to him.
And now, this Chronoa was actually called by Qinglong and stood in their camp.
But he only communicates with Blackbeard.
"Sir Chronoa..." Blackbeard whispered, "There are only people from the Empire here now. Perhaps we can try to forcibly intercept the Star of Eternal Silence."
"Otherwise, once other X-level life forms arrive in large numbers, it will be difficult to act."
Chlonoa glanced at the weak ant and said in a flat voice: "We'll talk about it after that Azure Dragon comes."
"Wait, Your Excellency Qinglong..." Blackbeard's expression changed, and he couldn't help but say, "But...if we wait any longer, once a large number of X-level life forms arrive, things will be difficult to handle."
Chronoa's reaction was indifferent: "It has nothing to do with me. I only cooperate with Qinglong."
"Also, the Star of Eternal Silence can mobilize the power of time. Even I am not sure of success. I need to cooperate with others."
Blackbeard said politely, "You can try it first. What if it succeeds? Lord Qinglong probably doesn't want to see you miss such a great opportunity because of him."
The vertical pupils on Klonoa's cheeks fell on him, and Blackbeard felt a chill all over his body, "You're threatening me with him?"
Chlonoa spoke in a cold tone. In the past, if such a weak life form dared to speak to him in such a tone, he would have swallowed it up long ago.
But now is not the time.
He didn't care about Qinglong and had never even met him. What he was afraid of was Li Ming, also known as Talos.
Although we know from the information of the empire that this guy is not simple, and can even be compared with the former hammer forger.
However, didn't the so-called master hammersmith also die at his hands?
These main universe life forms are not worth mentioning in the deep dimensional world.
"Klonoa, your temper has improved a lot..." A voice suddenly sounded from the shadows, and there was a figure faintly visible in that direction.
"Heh..." Chlonoa sneered.
Blackbeard lowered his head and dared not speak again.
The three navigators did not get involved. They knew that these two forbidden life forms did not take them seriously at all.
"The Blood-Falling One seems to have been silent for a long time..." The Forger suddenly said, frowning, "We don't know what specific methods the Empire has."
"The Blood-Falling One..." The navigator turned his back to the few people. Ever since they turned their attention to the Star of Eternal Silence, the Blood-Falling One no longer provided any help.
This made him feel something was not right. Starting from the Star of Eternal Silence was not a high risk, but it could cause great trouble to the empire.
Even if the Bleeding One disapproves, he wouldn't be so inactive as he is now.
"Another living creature is coming...it's quite powerful..." a voice came from the shadows.
Several people also felt something and looked in a certain direction through the porthole.
"This is it, we finally caught up." Another exquisite spaceship was hovering not far away.
Anatoly looked at the chaotic area on the screen and couldn't help but wonder: "This is the Star of Eternal Silence..."
Gustav was standing beside him at this moment, his eyes were deep. There were many living creatures in the cabin, and they were all looking at that area with fiery eyes.
"President, when do we start?" Someone was already impatient.
Gustav shook his head, "Wait a little longer, we don't have enough people..."
On the other side, in the Imperial battleship, Costat had just finished communicating with Adam, stood up with a serious expression, and walked out.
Passing through the metal corridor, we arrived at another room deep inside the battleship.
After pushing open the door, what was surprising was that there was an energy mimicry of Klonoa, and the metal vertical pupils fell on the prince.
Kostarte closed the door and went straight to the point, saying in a deep voice, "Taros has been captured by us."
Upon hearing this, Chlonoa's body rippled with energy, and the golden vertical pupils on his cheeks became brighter.
"This is a video..." Costat pulled out his smart terminal and played the video. "The Holy Emperor has already sent Talos directly to us. You can rest assured."
Chlonoa watched the video in front of him, focusing mainly on the detection equipment that was shaped by his world blood.
Costat urged, "Now we can get started and clear out the others."
"No..." Chlonoa suppressed his excitement and shook his head. "I can't confirm whether this is true or not. I've seen through you all. No matter how much data you give me, I won't believe it unless you actually bring the person to me."
Costat frowned and couldn't help asking, "Now that things have come to this, is there any need for us to lie to you?"
"It's hard to say." Chlonoa sneered, "I'll say it again, I won't take action unless I see him."
"Since the person is almost here, you shouldn't mind waiting a little longer."
Costat was furious, but helpless. He hesitated for a moment, and just as he was about to turn and leave, his eyes flickered, and he said, "Li Ming is Qinglong's student. If he falls into your hands, he won't let it go. You have to be careful."
"This is a deep dimensional world..." Chronoa said casually, "If you three civilizations brought all the Titan relics, I would be a little afraid."
"Qinglong..." He shook his head. "Life forms in the main universe can only linger here."
"I know you want to kill someone with a borrowed knife, but once I get Talos, I don't mind eliminating this hidden danger."
Costat's expression changed slightly, and he took the opportunity to ask, "If that's the case, why can Li Ming threaten you?"
Klonoa's face froze, and he said indifferently: "This matter has nothing to do with you."
