Chapter 571 Adam: Qinglong, you ****
"Someone took action?"
This scene shocked many people present.
Moreover, the attacking life form cautiously lay dormant for a long time, and only attacked fiercely when it got close.
"Who is so fierce? Isn't this looking for death?"
Everyone subconsciously thought that the Azure Dragon's power was still there, and they all believed that the opponent was invincible.
"No, his goal is only to snatch the fragment of the Star of Eternal Silence. Azure Dragon's true form seems to be in the Holy Castle. This mecha is just an empty shell. And it seems to have some problems. It has not moved. This is a great opportunity."
"Wealth and honor are sought in danger."
The communication of mental fluctuations was extremely rapid. The blue glow only appeared for a moment, and everyone exchanged a few words.
Some people even looked annoyed. While they were shocked by Qinglong's power, some people had already seen further.
That is a fragment of the Star of Eternal Silence. Once I get it, it will be worth it even if it offends Qinglong.
And next, Qinglong will inevitably face pressure from the three major civilizations. Whether he will have the opportunity to hunt down the person who took action is another matter.
Realizing this, someone immediately followed with the intention of intercepting, and then everyone was ready to take action.
But Costat, who was farther away, stared at this scene with his face changing constantly. Everything that was happening at the moment was far beyond his control.
He had no other thoughts now, only wanting to keep the fragments in his hand, and immediately gave a decisive order: "Retreat!"
boom!
While they were thinking, the blue glow had already approached, and King Zhentian's thunder arm blade had already spun out hundreds of strangling trajectories.
Each blade light burned an arc of lightning in the void, and the hot plasma flow formed a strangulation matrix.
The moment King Yutian crossed his arms, hexagonal honeycomb shields unfolded layer by layer, and energy singularities that collapsed in the opposite direction floated on the surface of each shield.
However, the moment the blue light struck, the Thunder Blade Net suddenly solidified.
In a short period of time, the blue light shot out several energy beams, accurately hitting the energy nodes of the stranglehold, and a cold air filled the air.
Snap!
The core of the Thunder Arm Blade went out, and ice-crystal cracks appeared on the blade, as if it was being attacked in reverse by absolute zero.
The honeycomb shield of King Yutian was even crushed. The ice fragments bursting out in the blue light seemed insignificant, but they directly penetrated the shield.
"Vulnerable."
The figure in the blue glow had scorching eyes, and only the fragment of the Star of Eternal Silence held in the mecha's hands was right in front of him.
But in his peripheral vision, a purple light appeared, like a retinal afterimage.
But his pupils suddenly shrank, and he couldn't help feeling frightened. This purple light was so familiar.
By the time he realized it, the Infinite Hammer had already brought with it terrifying force, twisting inch by inch, and smashing down invincibly.
The moment the blue glow penetrated, the void emitted a series of crisp sounds like glassware exploding, and the energy turbulence that followed crushed the blue glow completely.
The sharp icy light that had torn apart the mechanical guards was now like an ice crystal curtain wall hit by a sledgehammer.
The circular shock wave produced by the collision exploded and surged in all directions like a rolling wave.
Suddenly, the streams of light that followed stopped in the void, staring at the scene in front of them in astonishment.
The mecha, which had not responded or moved at all no matter how it shouted, now put away the Star of Eternal Silence and was holding the purple hammer.
The crystal-like hammer surface was still stained with blood mist, and in the energy light film wrapped around the hammer handle, one could even see the mirror reflection of everyone's astonished expressions at the moment.
"Why did you suddenly move again?"
The people who originally had ill intentions suddenly froze in the middle of the process.
Moreover, can the mecha also transform into that hammer?
Li Ming looked at the remaining half of the body, which seemed to be formed by some kind of ice crystal, and the upper body had disappeared.
His energy level was not high, barely over a thousand, so he was killed without [Giant Strike], using the Infinite Heavy Hammer combined with various abilities to burst out.
"Ice Monster, it turns out to be this old fellow..." Anatoly, who was rushing in the front, said in a deep voice: "This fellow once committed the crime of interstellar massacre, and now he dares to offend you."
His mental fluctuations were filled with resentment. "I'm afraid Your Excellency will be distracted by other matters and this despicable fellow will take advantage of the opportunity to harm you."
"Oh?" Li Ming raised his head, swinging the Infinite Hammer casually in his hand. "So, you're here to help me?"
"Of course, you and I are both vice presidents of the United Organization of Higher Life Forms. Naturally, I have an obligation to help you." Anatoly hesitated, as if wondering why he asked this.
No wonder you can become the vice-chairman. Everyone’s expression changed.
But they found Qinglong's eyes sweeping over them, "So you are here to help me too?"
After a brief silence, surging spiritual fluctuations came like a tide.
"Of course... of course..."
"You are the Vice Chairman. How could we possibly allow such a despicable person who hasn't even joined the organization to offend you..."
“…”
Amidst the hustle and bustle, Li Ming remained silent, neither confirming nor exposing the truth. He simply asked calmly, "Did you see everything?"
Everyone nodded.
"What idea?" he asked.
Everyone looked at each other, as if any answer would be a trap, and their eyes couldn't help but focus on Anatoly who was in the front row.
"I must congratulate you on obtaining the Star of Eternal Silence, slaying powerful enemies, and becoming famous in the interstellar space." Anatoly responded solemnly.
Is there such an angle?
Some of the guys who were slower to react looked dazed.
Everyone understood what Qinglong meant. He clearly asked them to choose a side, but Anatoly pretended not to understand.
Others followed suit and offered congratulations.
For a moment, the area was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
Li Ming looked at the group of cunning bastards in front of him and didn't expect them to provide any help.
In the past, many people would have handed out their business cards in this situation, but now they are all pretending to be stupid.
With a glance, he found that most of the Empire's warships had disappeared, and they retreated very timely.
Obviously to ensure that the fragments in hand are not lost.
Seeing that the situation was not good... everyone was running like rabbits. He couldn't help but shake his head, put away the Infinite Hammer, and said lightly: "Thank you all for your congratulations. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
He has so much to do now and must cherish every moment.
Naturally, no one dared to stop him. They made way for him and watched him disappear.
Everyone knew in their hearts that this trip would cause huge chaos.
………
The capital of the empire.
Adam sat behind the desk, his knuckles tapping the amber surface, the holographic star map cocooning at his side.
The pupils in his eye sockets were as deep as the abyss. He stared at a virtual screen on the left, which displayed a complex trajectory star map.
"According to the estimated time, Li Ming will be delivered today." He murmured, his heart beating faster.
He let out a breath slowly. He hadn't felt this uneasy for a long time... Well... not really.
The last time I sent people to capture Li Ming, I had similar anxieties, but that time we succeeded.
This time, the anxiety is even more intense than last time. Whether or not one can obtain the Star of Eternal Silence is related to many future plans.
Even though he has captured Li Ming, the most important bargaining chip, it is not certain whether he can succeed.
Over the long years, he has witnessed too many changes.
He frowned and sighed, "Heckler's progress is quite smooth. He has found the coordinates of the Holy Castle and I'm afraid he has arrived at the location."
"If I fail here, I can only avoid his attack temporarily."
He shook his head helplessly and raised his hand to rub his eyebrows.
Time passed silently in the room. I didn't know how long it had been before a communication window suddenly popped up in front of me.
It's Kostat.
A sharp gleam flashed across Adam's eyes. Just as he was about to answer the call, he paused, took a deep breath, and then answered it calmly.
Costat's big face popped up immediately, with a complex expression of hesitation, fear and other emotions, as if he had aged a lot.
Before he could say anything, Adam had already received a lot of information. His heart sank, and he asked aloud, "Still haven't found the Star of Eternal Silence yet."
Costat hesitated, nodding first, then shaking his head. This confused Adam, who frowned slightly. "What do you mean? Did you succeed or not?"
Costat opened his mouth. What happened before was too complicated and too shocking.
For a moment, he didn't know where to begin, so he could only follow Adam's words and answer in a dull voice: "I succeeded, but only got half..."
"Half?" Adam was stunned, but he quickly realized what was happening, his eyes narrowing. "The Star of Eternal Silence is shattered? Who has the other half?"
He was somewhat dissatisfied at the moment. Li Mingdu had been captured by him and given to Klonoa, but in the end he only got half.
"Qinglong." Kostat uttered these two words with extremely complicated emotions.
Adam couldn't fully understand the complex emotions Costat was feeling at the moment. He was somewhat surprised, but not entirely surprised. He pondered:
"Qinglong, you really can't underestimate him. He can actually snatch things from Chlonoa."
The result was not as expected, but it was not a complete failure. Although he was dissatisfied, the operation was already over, so he could only appease:
"You don't have to blame yourself too much. Qinglong can't be judged by common sense. We can make plans for the half he has later."
Only then did Costat realize that Adam didn't even know that he had caught Li Ming.
He had already forgotten about this incident. After all, compared with what happened later, it was just a small matter.
But for now, he still had to explain. His lips moved and he whispered, "Saint Emperor, Li Ming was not sent here. It was Qinglong who came. He should have snatched Li Ming back."
"Huh?" Adam, who was originally thinking, looked at him in astonishment, "Li Ming was not sent over? But..."
He suddenly stopped, his face changing from gloomy to bright. He wanted to say that there were no mistakes or omissions in the routine reports during transportation and several video exchanges.
But he suddenly realized that Costat was being euphemistic, but in reality, he was saying that he had been completely fooled by Qinglong.
"What a great Azure Dragon."
Adam's face looked ugly for a moment, but he quickly adjusted himself. He didn't think about why he failed. The result was that he had already failed.
But he suddenly looked at Costat, his expression calming down, and he exclaimed in admiration: "You managed to snatch half a piece from Chronoa. You are indeed worthy of being the Imperial Prince I rely on."
Since Li Ming was not sent over, Klonoa will definitely not turn against us.
The price Costat paid to get this half piece is immeasurable.
Costat's expression changed. He couldn't bear to listen any longer. He felt that he needed to make things clear as soon as possible. He gritted his teeth and said, "Holy Emperor, please listen to me first."
"What happened in the deep dimensional world is too complicated. Although Li Ming didn't send it, Klonoa has actually turned against us."
Adam's face suddenly became confused and uncertain, but this time he did not interrupt rashly and listened quietly to Costat's narration.
"However, Qinglong, I don't know what method he used, but he withstood the attacks from Chlonoa and Istanbul head-on."
"And Chronoa fled the scene in an extremely embarrassed manner, which caused Istanbul to dare not take any more action and was forced to retreat by Qinglong."
"That's actually the case..." Adam's face was solemn as he pondered, "Li Ming, also known as Talos, has the means to control Chronoa. In our estimation, he must be secretly cooperating with Qinglong."
"It's amazing that he could withstand the attacks of two forbidden life forms."
"But, in the end, getting half a piece is enough." He comforted Chlonoa again, "Even though it's only half a piece, it gives me more bargaining chips."
"The matter of the Eternal Star has come to an end for now. Please come back and help me deal with the pressure from Heckler. Things are going smoothly on his side."
Costat gave a wry smile and said, "You don't have to worry about Heckler."
"Oh?" Adam, who was thinking about how to deal with Heckler, looked at him unexpectedly.
"The Holy Castle has already been taken over by someone else." Costat said disappointedly.
"What?" Adam's face changed drastically. The reason why he did not interfere with Heckler was because this holy castle was already in the hands of the empire.
It's an enhanced empire anyway.
Now, upon hearing that someone had gotten there first, he lost his composure and hurriedly asked, "Who?"
But then he asked, "How did you know this?"
"This is a very complicated matter. For some reason, the Star of Eternal Silence is reflecting the Holy Castle." Costat said, increasingly frustrated. "I sent you a video. Would you like to take a look?"
Reflecting the scene of the Holy Castle?
Adam frowned, looking somewhat dissatisfied. Even now, Costat was still keeping the secret.
Another virtual screen popped up next to it, and the video sent by Costat began to play.
He calmed down and looked at it, but his expression changed dramatically as the progress bar advanced.
The changes in the Trial to Become a King... the sudden appearance of the Titan branch... he now understood why Costat said that this matter was complicated.
But when he saw the purple hammer in the hand of the figure on the King Trial Arena, his face changed drastically, and he repeatedly questioned, "Qinglong, it's Qinglong again!"
"How did he find the Holy Castle? How did he get there first?"
Costat opened his mouth, but naturally could not come up with an answer.
The depth of the Azure Dragon's tentacles had spread far beyond his expectations. The Holy Castle that Heckler had been planning for a long time was actually left so far away by the Azure Dragon.
Adam's face was gloomy and uncertain, but he could only suppress his emotions and continue watching.
Until the end, the Dark Prison Giant who was as powerful as Tandin was seriously injured by Qinglong's hammer and was strangled by the Holy Castle.
He completely lost his composure, stood up suddenly, clenched his fists, and slammed his knuckles hard on the amber table. Fine cracks spread inch by inch, and golden energy lines appeared under his skin.
The holographic star map surrounding him trembled violently, his face twisted and terrifying, and he squeezed out a word from his throat, a rough and hard word: "How can he... be so strong!"
