Chapter 665: Sending out the "Ultimate Mechanical Body"
Abel thought for a moment and responded, "As far as I know, after the Holy Castle incident, the controller of the Eternal Holy See successfully escaped the siege of the three major civilizations."
In Levenbaker's hands...bad news.
"How could he get away?" Li Ming couldn't help but sigh. If he was in the hands of any of the three major civilizations, he could kill them directly now.
Abel was puzzled as to why there was still a hint of complaint in Li Ming's tone.
Li Ming then asked, "Are you on the Empire's home planet?"
"I haven't returned to the Empire's home planet..." Abel shook his head. "Straka Star Region, Howling Wind Star Gate Node, have His Excellency Qinglong send someone to find me here."
"Okay." Li Ming nodded. The two didn't talk much. After the deal was done, they ended the communication.
"Abel, Abel..." Li Ming muttered, and a blue mechanical body walked out of his body. It was about the same height as him and thin. It was King Zhentian.
"Given the relationship between us, how could I send only an X-class machine? I will give you a whole ultimate machine... a big surprise." Li Ming grinned, revealing his white teeth.
The reason he didn't ask too many questions was because he didn't care.
If this is a trap, the upgraded Megatronus can easily kill through it.
If not, we can still act according to circumstances.
Upgrading the Mechanical Guard is simple and only requires 10 billion metal energies, which is completely sufficient.
As the metal energy continued to pour in, King Zhentian's skinny body suddenly collapsed, and the metal shell cracked into spider-web-like patterns from the center of the eyebrows.
The outer layer of armor peeled off, and before the metal debris could float away, it was swallowed and reshaped by the golden liquid metal gushing out from the inside.
These living metals have a mercury-like luster, yet have the viscous texture of molten glass.
The mechanical pupil expanded outward, forming a three-layer ring structure. In the center was suspended a hexagonal chip that was constantly replicating itself. Arcs of different colors were dancing between each ring gap.
The pupils kept turning, and the remaining traces of light in the air lasted for three seconds, outlining the shadow of gears meshing.
The chest armor plate curled outward like a blooming mechanical lotus, exposing the boiling amber energy slurry at the core, undergoing a strengthening transformation at the molecular level.
Energy flowed through the knuckles, and the five fingers suddenly exploded into millions of glowing metal wires, weaving wildly in mid-air, and finally solidified into a lapis lazuli palm covered with fine runes, and each palm line was a flowing liquid circuit.
The originally angular joints were now softening and reshaping, and the metal blades at the elbows were growing rapidly, emitting an electromagnetic buzzing sound as each section extended.
The newly born arm blade is not made of metal, but is woven from flowing light sand. Every slight vibration will leave a comet-like afterimage in the air. This method is more suitable for super-compressed energy conduction.
The twelve vertebrae-like alloy skeletons broke and reassembled, and sparks like meteor showers were ejected from each broken part.
These hot metal particles did not dissipate. Instead, they intertwined into energy wings like phoenix tail feathers behind the body, and arcs of electricity burst out.
The knee armor has emerged with a layered structure similar to dragon scales, completing a comprehensive transformation from head to toe.
The moment the evolution was completed, the entire mechanical body suddenly burst out with a roar like the morning bell and evening drum. The sound waves materialized into ripples and would spread out, but were forcibly suppressed by Li Ming.
"Master..." King Zhentian was surrounded by golden arcs of electricity. He was completely reborn and knelt on the ground with great respect.
"Get up..." Li Ming nodded with satisfaction, and kept looking at the completely transformed King Zhentian, as if he were a perfect work of art.
He did not let the other party leave immediately, but opened the control page, found the [Spirit Body Projection Device], and marked the other party to facilitate his direct arrival.
This thing can only mark three mechanical bodies, but the ones he marked before were shattered or destroyed, and there are no marked mechanical bodies left.
"Fortunately this thing is a special type, otherwise it would need to be upgraded..." Li Ming muttered.
After the mark is made, he can descend into King Zhentian's body at any time.
This is particularly important. After all, he does not have a combat system equipped all the time, and he needs to understand the situation over there.
King Zhentian has followed him for a long time, and he doesn't want anything unexpected to happen.
After that was settled, he asked King Zhentian to go to the coordinates given by Abel.
After sending King Zhentian away, Li Ming thought about it and decided to upgrade the two [Life Power Cores] to level x.
There is the blood of the world and no shortage of metal energy, so upgrading is as easy as drinking water.
"This way, I'll have three Level X [Life Power Cores] in my hands."
[Immunity] lasts for sixty seconds, but the repair time also increases accordingly. He had previously estimated that the repair time for a level X core was two minutes and forty-seven seconds.
The three cores combined are enough to cover all the repair time and restore the metal energy to the point where the person will not die.
"There are only three portions of World Blood left. I'll have time to go to the Deep Dimensional World..."
Thinking of this, Li Ming frowned slightly. "However, beneath the deep dimensional world is the Eternal Abyss, which is also the place where the universe's suppression is the weakest. Killing the forbidden life form without touching the Eternal Abyss is probably impossible."
He was quite worried, as Yongyuan was the biggest trouble facing him.
Even now, he didn't want to touch that thing.
Especially when there is a possibility of entering the other party's territory.
"Then send the mechanical guards..." Li Ming did not hesitate and thought of a solution in a blink of an eye.
There were still 23 billion metal energies left in his hand, so he simply took out King Yutian again. His burly body gave people an unparalleled sense of security.
duang!
Li Ming patted his alloy armor. Naturally, the benefits should be given to old employees first.
Another 10 billion metal energies smashed down, and in the golden storm, King Yutian also changed from head to toe. The surface armor became stronger and stronger, like a tin can.
The most eye-catching thing is the huge metal shield in his hand that looks like a door panel. It is extremely thick and has layers of defense.
Standing there, it was like an indestructible mountain.
Arrange King Yutian to go to the deep dimensional world through the dimensional channel. Not long after, the blood of the world will be delivered.
Everything was arranged. Li Ming continued to practice Tai Chi, gathering the last bit of unstable life fluctuations and waiting for the huge amount of metal materials to arrive.
Once the Crown of Diglas is repaired and all eight mechanical guards are upgraded, the "evolution" will be considered complete.
Otherwise, he would not go out and wander around, after all, there is a Tanus watching him in the dark somewhere.
…
The Empire's home planet, a laboratory hidden deep underground.
This is not a royal laboratory and is not very large, but the materials used are all top-grade alloys.
There is only one core laboratory and a small number of people.
In the central area of the core laboratory, many experimenters gathered here, holding various instruments in their hands and recording complex parameters. Each of them looked very capable and smart.
Adam was naked, with his eyes closed, sitting on the cracked Eternal Throne. Dense blood vessel-like lines bulged on the surface of his white skin, and his heart was beating like thunder.
His body would grow bigger and then shrink again from time to time, and his life force would fluctuate extremely unstably.
The golden waves caressed his body, and wherever they passed, the blood vessel-like lines gradually dissipated.
The scene was permeated with an unimaginable breath of life, but the many experimenters present were basically used to it and were just performing their duties.
Next to the Eternal Throne was Levenbeck, but at this time, his cheeks were no longer the hideous pile of flesh and blood, and had returned to normal.
Alchemical essence continuously flows into the Eternal Holy Throne from the flesh and blood tentacles.
After an unknown amount of time, Adam slowly opened his eyes. Feeling the signs of distortion in his body calming down again, he couldn't help but frown and looked at Levenback: "It will take a few more times before I can completely merge with the Titan's gene seed."
"Twice at most, once at most," Levenbeck explained, adding a compliment, "Please be patient. You are now considered an Ultimate Life Form, the first Ultimate Life Form in the universe."
“When your majesty fills the stars, everyone will bow down at your feet.”
"I know, it just feels awkward." Adam took the clothes handed to him and slowly stood up.
Everyone held their breath, even Levenbeck took two steps back involuntarily, with a certain fiery look hidden in his eyes.
"Come on." Adam stretched out his arm, and Levenbeck's throat rolled before he stepped forward.
He took out a special alloy syringe, inserted it into the crack in Adam's skin, and drew out a tube of blood with difficulty. It was as thick as golden slurry.
At this moment, Costat walked in from outside the laboratory and happened to see this scene. His eyes flashed but he didn't say anything. He just waited for Levenbeck to finish drawing blood.
"Your Highness is here. I'll go and do some research first." Levenbeck glanced at Costat and said tactfully.
Adam nodded and took Costat out of the laboratory, walked through the extremely heavily guarded corridor, and got on the elevator.
"Levenbeck has big plans."
In the narrow elevator space, Costat couldn't help but remind.
"I understand. Once I've made sure the distortion doesn't happen..." Adam stopped talking and asked, "Is it done?"
"Yeah." Costa said with a complicated expression, "Abel finally agreed. I thought he would refuse."
"Of course he'll agree." Adam didn't care. "If you're not sure you can settle everything after taking office, there's no point in fighting for this position."
"But..." Costat hesitated, finally saying, "Are you sure he will seek Qinglong's help?"
Adam nodded calmly: "This is his only way. His mother's family is not strong and cannot mobilize X-level life forms. I haven't sent anyone, so the only external force he can contact is Qinglong."
"He and Li Ming have been dealing for a long time and have a certain foundation of trust. With the news of a major change within the empire spreading, Qinglong will definitely not miss this golden opportunity to get involved in the empire."
"Abel, it's still possible. Is there any other way to lure Qinglong into the game..." Costat couldn't help but say.
Adam's voice was cold. "We don't have that much time. Every day we delay increases the chances of the Star Alliance, the Federation, or even Azure Dragon giving birth to an Ultimate Lifeform. I must lure all the external enemies here and complete our victory in one fell swoop."
You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child. He sent all the princes away, and anyone who wanted to make moves against the empire would definitely take the opportunity to cause trouble.
Adam paused, then continued, "Especially Azure Dragon. Once I reveal to the universe that I have become the Ultimate Life Form, he will definitely hide. The universe is so vast that I won't be able to find him anywhere."
Costat's body twitched again at the thought of the name, but he nodded in agreement. "Qinglong is too cunning. He let Li Ming act on his behalf in the interstellar space. Under normal circumstances, it is indeed difficult to find him."
Adam remained silent. Qinglong’s priority was almost the most important and highest among all enemies.
Although he knew that Qinglong was Li Ming and the Mechanical Royal Court was not a bait, he would not rashly attack the Mechanical Royal Court.
On the one hand, the possibility of deformation in his body has not been completely eliminated. Once he enters a combat state, the risk will soar rapidly.
On the other hand, Li Ming has at least two Titan relics in his hands, and if the Crown of Diglas is included, there are three of them.
He was also unsure how much support Reynolds and Mikhail had given to each other.
In Li Ming's lair, the other party, with the cooperation of the Mechanical Holy Spirit and many Titan relics, it is easy for something unexpected to happen.
Once Li Ming is not captured and the fact that he has become an ultimate life form is exposed to the interstellar space, the other enemies will disappear.
He would rather let the other party step into the trap he prepared for all enemies without any warning.
"Arthur has probably already contacted the House of Commons and the House of Lords. My most cherished son, please don't let me down," Adam muttered to himself, but then added solemnly, "Be prepared. If he makes a move, spread the news immediately."
"Does it have to be this way..." Costat couldn't help himself after all. He understood the ins and outs of the whole plan.
Adam has already shown signs of being seriously injured, and at the same time, he has been constantly deepening this concept over the past period of time.
The tasks assigned to the princes were extremely difficult.
If a prince holds great power, he can easily find out that the so-called selection of inheritance qualifications and investigating those cesspool-like cases are actually the most thankless method.
There is another way to get to that position more directly, simply and quickly.
No prince could resist that kind of temptation, and this was the most crucial part of Adam's plan.
The entire galaxy will be alerted and fall into the trap he has carefully constructed.
But if that were to happen, who knows how much of a stir it would cause, and who knows how many princes would be deposed afterwards.
After all, he felt more blood ties with those princes than Adam did.
Adam tilted his head slightly, his gaze as heavy as a mountain falling on Costat. His expression tensed slightly, and he could only whisper, "I understand."
Adam then turned his head, his voice still indifferent, "Sacrifice is necessary."
………
The Mechanical Royal Court was running at full capacity, achieving a terrifying level of efficiency. All channels gave way to metal materials, absorbing large amounts of resources like a whirlpool.
In just two months, by suspending all production and focusing on purchasing metal materials, Li Ming accumulated 40 billion metal energies.
