"If that's the case..." He thought to himself, "Then can I absorb the alchemical essence created by Levenback?"
He had a vague idea, but absorbing the alchemical essence probably wasn't that simple.
This alchemical abyss seed creates blood mist, which is then converted into alchemical source material through some ability.
Although this Alchemy Abyss Seed has this ability, it is a consumable and disposable item.
He pondered in his heart, frowned slightly, and shook his head: "Let's stop it first."
The changes were too great, the uncertainty too high, and he wasn't that cruel.
Zhang Hengyu and Anduin didn't say anything, just looked at Li Ming who was in silence.
Soon, Li Ming came to his senses and found that the screening of Suzaku had already produced preliminary results.
There are ten people on one page, and there are more than a hundred pages of target people. All of them have changed their behavior habits drastically in recent months and have rarely gone out.
This is only part of the information collected. The more accurate number is probably even more than this.
Li Ming looked at Anduin first. "I'll send you a list later. Have all members come to the Star Alliance and remove this thing from the planet according to the coordinates on the list."
"All members..." Anduin's face changed slightly. He didn't expect Li Ming to attach such importance to Levenback. He couldn't help but remind him: "Should the Star Alliance prepare in advance..."
"I'll say hello." Li Ming nodded.
Anduin then hurried away, taking the Archon of Sanchez with him.
Zhang Hengyu's emotions surged upon hearing this, and he finally couldn't help but ask cautiously, "Sir, does this matter really need to be so drastic?"
"If we're lucky, the Star Alliance might not suffer too much damage." Li Ming glanced at him, "If we're unlucky, we'll suffer heavy losses."
Seriously injured? Zhang Hengyu was horrified. To hear the other party mention such a serious injury must be extraordinary.
He was shocked and angry at the same time. He had submitted his report more than a month ago, but no one cared.
"It would be better if we all died!" He cursed with gritted teeth.
………
Somewhere in the void of the Sea of Stars, there is a scarlet flesh ball as big as a planet, like the heart of a rotten god.
The surface is covered with tens of thousands of purple-black blood vessels as thick as mountains, and the surface of these pulsating blood vessels is covered with barbs.
Asphalt-like pus and blood continued to ooze out of the surface of the fleshy ball. These viscous liquids condensed into scabs the size of continental plates in the vacuum, which were constantly broken by the newly grown fleshy tumors underneath.
Its body is still expanding, with giant tentacles made of debris extending from its surface, sinking into the depths of the void, absorbing energy from an unknown source.
In the core, deep in the surging flesh and blood, Levenback sat on the throne of flesh and blood, his lower body almost fused with the throne, and behind him were the rotten limbs of the dominant being, surrounded by black silk-mesh-like energy, which gradually decomposed them.
At some point, Levenbeck slowly opened his eyes and said, "Someone has already discovered it."
Beside him, Tanus was still standing there. His expression seemed to become more solemn, his facial features like weathered sculptures, and there was less emotional fluctuation in his eyes than before.
"Who needs my help?" The voice was equally cold and silent.
Levenbeck shook his head: "Although they are just some small characters, once they are investigated, they will be captured by Li Ming's intelligence system. He has come into contact with my blood seed and is not unfamiliar with it."
"However, being discovered only now is beyond my expectation. The coverage area is already large enough, and the blood mist can bloom. Once it starts, no one can resist it."
"The ultimate life form is right before our eyes." Levenback's eyes were blazing.
Tanus said in a cold tone, "Remember your mission."
"I understand." Levenbeck nodded. "The blood mist already has some of the characteristics of the Abyss Mist. It can spread in the void. Within the coverage area, the power of Lord Abyss can also more easily affect the main universe."
"As for my advancement, I will only wait for the blood mist to expand to a certain extent, and then absorb a small amount. After all, my becoming the Ultimate Lifeform can also help Master Yuan to be active and provide some assistance."
Seeing that Levenbeck was thinking clearly, Tanus nodded, "If Li Ming finds out and tries to stop you, how are you going to deal with it?"
"Stop it? He can't." Levenback shook his head, his eyes filled with unimaginable madness. "The blood mist can permeate the void and spread at a terrifying speed, surpassing all previous methods of viral transmission."
It was not until the final product was created under Yongyuan's influence that he understood why the alchemical civilization regarded the Supreme Core as a powerful creation that could allow the alchemical source to transform again.
In the past, although his blood seeds could multiply rapidly inside the planet, they were far from being able to break through the atmospheric boundaries and spread to other places through the vacuum.
This means that no matter how powerful the Blood Seed is, it can only be confined to one planet.
The solution is also very simple. Just seal off the planet and ensure that no one is allowed to leave, and then his blood seed will be powerless.
This is also the reason why many viruses in the past have always been unable to cause significant damage to the interstellar space.
The only medium of transmission in the starry sky is living matter. Once the traffic is cut off, no matter what virus it is, it can only be confined to a planet.
But now the blood mist can permeate the void, what does this mean?
If one planet explodes, it can quickly ignite other nearby planets.
One civilization can infect other nearby civilizations and expand in all directions without any blind spots.
Moreover, he has already completed a large-scale lurking. Once it breaks out at the same time, the blood mist crisis will engulf the entire Star Alliance like a tide.
Levenbeck said respectfully, "He can't handle it alone, and can only watch the Abyss Lord descend."
"That's the best." Tanus nodded slowly and closed his eyes again.
………
"President!"
At the Star Alliance headquarters, Antigo's personal secretary rushed in, his face filled with fear and trepidation.
Antigo frowned slightly. He was looking through some documents, which turned out to be physical documents. Seeing this, he couldn't help but close his eyes and said in a deep voice, "What's going on? Why are you so flustered?"
As his personal secretary, he must have composure. He was quite dissatisfied with the fact that he was so flustered.
The Secretary-General's face froze. He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down before slowly saying, "I just received news that Qinglong has mobilized all available members of the Higher Life Forms United Organization to rush to the Star Alliance."
"What!" Antigo's heart skipped a beat. He stood up suddenly and asked repeatedly, "He's coming to the Star Alliance? What's going on? What does he want to do?!"
"Speak!"
The secretary's expression changed, and he said helplessly, "We don't know why they came yet, but Li Ming seemed to have provided them with coordinates and asked them to go there."
"Coordinates? Coordinates of what place?" Antigo asked repeatedly.
"I don't know. The X-class lifeform that provided us with intelligence only dared to reveal this much." The Secretary-General shook his head. "We won't know the specific instructions until they arrive at the designated location."
"Qinglong..." Antigo's expression kept changing. For a moment, all kinds of speculations came to his mind: decapitation tactics? Forced coercion?
After Qinglong took control of the empire, the Star Alliance and the Federation have been guarding against each other's continued expansion and formed alliances in many places.
But he didn't expect Qinglong to move so quickly.
Buzz--
The terminal device on the table suddenly vibrated. Antigo looked down and his face changed slightly. It was Qinglong.
"Get out." Antigo said in a deep voice. The Secretary General subconsciously glanced at the terminal on the desk. He couldn't see anything from his angle and hurriedly turned and left.
Taking a deep breath, Antigo tried to calm himself down before answering the call.
After pressing the button, a virtual screen popped up, revealing Li Ming's overly youthful face. His expression was solemn, and he began with a shocking statement, "Chairman Antigo, the Star Alliance is about to be destroyed."
Antigo, who had been mentally prepared, could not help but pause when he heard this, and said in a deep voice:
"Li Ming, don't go too far. The Star Alliance is a complex organization of many civilizations. It's not like the Empire, which can be easily influenced by your words."
"If you want to start a war, I believe that most civilizations will fight to the end!"
"Start a war?" Li Ming frowned. "Who said I want to start a war?"
Antigo frowned. "Then why do you claim the Covenant is in danger of destruction? Besides you, who else in the interstellar space could pose a threat to the Covenant?"
It's no wonder Antigo thought so. He had just heard that all the X-level life forms of the United Organization were rushing towards the Star Alliance, and then he received a communication from Li Ming, claiming that the Star Alliance was going to be destroyed. It seemed like a threat no matter how you looked at it.
Li Ming was speechless and shook his head. "Of course there is. It's happening right now. I have solid intelligence that proves there's an impending major crisis within the Star Alliance."
"A major crisis, how come I didn't know about it?" Antigo looked suspicious.
"It's normal that you don't know." Li Ming said as a matter of course, "There's a guy called Alchemy Baron who became a star traitor and surrendered to the Eternal Abyss. He secretly created a large-scale pollution with the intention of accelerating the arrival of the Eternal Abyss."
Antigo blinked, a chill suddenly rushed to the top of his head, and his cheeks twitched.
Alchemy Baron? Eternal Abyss?
What the hell is going on? Such a big thing happened, but he didn't receive any news at all, while Li Ming actually figured out the whole story. Whose territory is this Star Alliance?
Wait…Alchemy Baron?
Antigo suddenly realized something, and hurriedly spread out the physical information on the table, and found the name of the Alchemist Baron.
"...Using the Eternal Holy Throne, fusing the Overlord's flesh and blood, artificially creating the Ultimate Life..."
"...his true identity is Levenback, the student killed by the Forge Hammer..."
This guy is really not a simple character.
Antigo's expression changed, but he didn't know whether he should believe what Qinglong said.
What if this guy is fooling me? When the time comes, people will come to kill me, but I will still be stupid enough to not react at all.
"That's the thing. I know you might be a little stressed, but don't do anything you shouldn't do." Li Ming said simply and bluntly, his tone very calm. "Otherwise, I will kill someone."
"Of course, it would be best if I could provide some help."
Antigo's face was tense, but the other party didn't give him a chance to respond and ended the call.
Antigo opened and closed his clenched palms, weighing the pros and cons in his mind, frowning, not knowing whether to believe it or not.
Buzz--
Suddenly, the desktop terminal vibrated again. He subconsciously looked over and quickly answered the call.
Malcolm's face popped up, his expression solemn, "Qinglong has contacted you, right?"
"He told you too?" Antigo was surprised.
"Hmm." Malcolm sighed. "It hasn't been a few years since I last took a break, and I've run into this again."
"Do you believe him?" Antigo understood Malcolm's underlying meaning.
"How can I not believe it?" Malcolm asked. "I know what you're thinking. Don't worry about whether it's true or not. Just declare a state of emergency for the Covenant, remove all X-class life forms, and go after the target of the Higher Life Forms Alliance."
"I will send someone there too."
Antigo was stunned for a moment, then he realized that he had gotten stuck in a dead end and actually didn't need to care whether what Qinglong said was true or not.
If it is true, they will help; if it is false, they will fight back.
"I understand." Antigo suddenly understood and nodded heavily.
Seeing his reaction, Malcolm couldn't help but sigh, "I actually hope that this is fake."
"Hmm?" Antigo was confused again.
Malcolm was disappointed. "Even if Azure Dragon attacks, at least he won't kill us all. Besides, it's not like we don't have the ability to resist. But if it's really Eternal Abyss... Azure Dragon wouldn't be able to resist, let alone us."
Antigo froze again. After thinking about it carefully, it was indeed true. This matter might as well be Qinglong's conspiracy.
It was not until Malcolm finished communicating that he gradually came back to his senses. His face showed a mixture of fatigue, helplessness and anger, and he was ready to issue an alert order.
…
Only Anduin, Anatoly and a few others did not cause any noise when they followed Li Ming.
But when further orders were issued, most of the X-level life forms headed to the Star Alliance. This sudden action attracted the attention of many people.
Since the Battle of Empires, many people have speculated that once Azure Dragon gains control of the Empire, he will turn his sights on the Covenant or the Federation.
Many people speculated that it was the Federation. After all, the Star Alliance was too complicated, and it was difficult to support a puppet that could control the overall situation.
Unexpectedly, the first to take action would be the Star Alliance.
At the same time, the Star Alliance also issued a warning order to mobilize all X-level life forms.
For a time, the atmosphere of war was like a rainstorm, and people were in panic.
It was also during this process that on a certain planet in the sea of stars, the scenery became beautiful and peaceful.
Today seemed to be some kind of holiday, the entire planet was celebrating, and the streets were crowded with cheering beings.
But suddenly, the ground shook violently. Just as the earthquake warning was issued, scarlet mist spewed out of the fissure, like billions of angry pythons, smashing the crystalline rock layer and breaking out of the ground.
The surface that first came into contact with the fog boiled instantly, the city quickly fell, buildings oozed pus and blood like skinned beasts, the skin of living things instantly carbonized into ash, and exposed muscle fibers gradually melted away.
The seawater boiled into gelatinous plasma, and in less than ten minutes, the entire planet was as if covered by a scarlet filter, falling into a dead silence.
The strangest thing was that the blood-colored fog broke through the boundaries of the atmosphere, dyed the starry sky blood-colored, and gradually spread to the surroundings.
