Chapter 79 Sixfold Development Blessing [Thundering Body Forging]
"Chief Lin, this doesn't count as accepting bribes, right?" Li Ming pondered.
"How can this be considered bribery?" Lin Yaoxian was surprised, as if he didn't understand why Li Ming would ask such a question. "If you gave it to me, it might be considered a bribe. But how can a superior sponsoring a subordinate be considered a bribe?"
"That's right." Li Ming nodded, then opened his StarNet account without changing his expression.
This kid didn't even hesitate. Is this so natural? Lin Yaoxian cursed inwardly, but his movements were smooth and fluid.
Li Ming took a glance and raised his brows slightly. Five hundred thousand star coins, he really was rich.
It doesn't look like much, but they are all visible.
"Thank you, Chief Lin." Li Ming said solemnly.
Although Lin Yaoxian felt pained, he also smiled happily. He was not afraid that Li Ming would not want him, but was afraid that Li Ming was the kind of young and inexperienced person.
He also wanted to invite Li Ming to dinner, but Li Ming waved his hand to refuse. After asking which floor the Internal Affairs Department was on, he walked up the stairs.
…
"Brother Li..." Li Ning, who was walking silently, heard a familiar voice and suddenly looked up, with a look of surprise on his face: "Li Ming?"
"When did you become an F-level life form?" Li Ming sensed an unusual aura from Li Ning and asked as he walked.
"Not long ago, after all, Captain Yang is now Yang Ke." Li Ning winked. There were many people on the floor who greeted Li Ming. Their faces were very familiar, and most of them were Yang Peng's old subordinates.
A new emperor appoints new ministers, it's just like that.
"Yang Ke's office is at the innermost part. Originally, the section chief had a separate floor, but Yang Ke didn't want to go. He has been too busy these past two days. Yang Ke also serves as the head of the logistics section, so there is really a shortage of staff." Li Ning was processing documents on the smart terminal while talking.
"Li Ming!" Lao Diao ran over. It seemed that he had been very busy these two days and had lost a lot of hair.
"Brother Diao." Li Ming greeted him.
"Come find Yang Ke." Lao Diao flipped through the information and slapped Li Ning on the back of the head. "Don't blame me for not warning you. You have to be careful. Yang Ke is very unhappy with you."
"Huh?" Li Ning beside him was a little confused. "Why? Why didn't I see that?"
"How many years have you followed Yang Ke?" Lao Diao sneered, laughing: "You kid is eating from the bowl and looking at the pot, be careful not to mess it up."
Li Ming was still a little confused at first, but he was speechless when he heard this. After chatting for a while, they both went about their own business.
Li Ming knocked on Yang Peng's office door, and an impatient voice came from inside: "Come in..."
"...Tell him to contact the former head of logistics. I don't recognize the contract he signed. The nutrient solution's pass rate is less than 97%. How could we possibly use you as a supplier..."
When Yang Peng saw that it was Li Ming, his expression changed a little. He cursed twice and ended the call. After asking Li Ming to sit down, he had a complicated expression.
"I haven't congratulated Uncle Yang yet." Li Ming spoke first.
"That's enough." Yang Peng waved his hand. "Don't I know what's going on? Are you and Secretary Fan... okay?"
"What could be the problem?" Li Ming shook his head. "It's fine if others spread rumors, but you actually believed them."
"Don't choke me." Yang Peng glared at him. He seemed to want to say something, but he just mumbled a few words and said, "I can't control your affairs, young people."
"Do you want to be transferred to my Internal Affairs Department, or what? To the Logistics Department? You're too young, and being a section chief might be a problem."
"Uh..." Li Ming pondered for a moment and said, "No, we should be leaving Silver Ash Star soon."
Yang Peng paused slightly, not surprised: "I guessed it."
"By the way, Uncle Yang, did Tu Zheng and the others escape?" Li Ming finally spoke up.
Tu Zheng and the others still have a million-level bounty on their heads, and no one has withdrawn it, probably because Qin Xiao is temporarily detained.
"Well, they are well-informed, but the Sixth Patrol Fleet is still blocking the space lanes. They are still on Silver-Ash Star." Yang Peng said in a deep voice, "They can't escape."
Tu Zheng has Yang Peng's people around him, so he naturally can't run away.
The two chatted for a while, and Li Ming learned that Yang Peng had taken Yang Yu and Yang Lao to the City Guard.
As a section chief, his family members can enjoy special protection.
After leaving Yang Peng's office, Li Ming was about to look for Old Wu. When he passed by the first floor, his expression paused slightly.
In the rest area on the first floor, Xu Wei and Yang Yu were chatting and having a great time.
The hall was bustling with people, and the two men didn't notice him. Li Ming left on his own, found a secluded place, changed his appearance, and came to the Silver City Hotel again.
This time, the people in charge of security were already familiar with him, and no one took action.
…
"Teacher." Li Ming sat opposite Professor Wu. Professor Wu put away the complicated holographic projection in front of him. Fang Biao stood in the distance, glancing over curiously from time to time, then quickly looking away.
"Are you satisfied with the development of the situation?" Professor Wu asked slowly.
"The teacher's hands are invisible and can influence the overall situation, which really makes the students admire him." Li Ming said sincerely.
Professor Wu smiled faintly: "You are quite good at flattery."
He continued, "Also, I've already warned the Privy Council deacon about the beast tide. Of course, I didn't mention you, but they probably won't dare come to Silver Ash Star again in the short term."
"After I leave, you don't have to worry about this."
Tsk… Is this what it feels like to have someone to lean on? Li Ming listened, feeling relieved.
"Of course, when they reinvestigate this matter later, they'll discover your existence, but by then you'll probably have already entered Capital University of Technology and entered my laboratory."
"If there's another conflict, I'll be able to handle it."
Old Wu arranged things very clearly.
"Thank you, teacher." Li Ming said sincerely.
"Don't worry about it." Old Wu said casually, "I asked you to come here mainly because we are leaving soon."
"Leaving?" Li Ming was quite surprised: "So soon?"
"The reason I came here is because of the negotiation between Star Creation and its management. Now that the negotiation has concluded, there's no point in staying any longer," Old Wu explained briefly. He then asked, "How far along are you with your development?"
“9%.”
"Hmm... about the same as I expected." Professor Wu nodded, then pulled out a silver metal box from under his feet. "This is for you."
"What is this?" Li Ming couldn't help but ask.
"[Thunder Sixteen Exercises]"
"Exercise method?" Li Ming's heart moved slightly.
"It's a special training method used to assist in the development of gene seeds," Professor Wu explained. "There are countless life forms in the universe, of varying types, and humans are a large group."
"In addition to basic development methods, there are also many special exercises that can deeply stimulate cells."
"RIT training method?" Li Ming said suddenly.
"Yes, that's the more popular one. This one is a training method specifically used to stimulate the gene seeds related to the thunder element, as well as supporting equipment." Professor Wu further elaborated.
This advanced exercise method requires not just doing a few movements, but using a specific electric current to stimulate a certain part of the body at a specific time to achieve maximum effect.
It even requires the living organism itself to mobilize its own bioelectric current to proceed synchronously, just like the internal energy technique.
According to Professor Wu, if the proficiency is high, it is enough to increase the development speed by 1.5 to 2 times.
That is to say, it increases by 150%-200%.
"Those powerful civilizations are really hard to predict." Li Ming couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes." Professor Wu agreed deeply.
Li Ming opened the metal box and took a look. It contained a thumb-sized ball and a USB drive.
The USB flash drive should be showing movement, but the ball surprised Li Ming--
[Thunder Sixteen-style Body-building Equipment Ball--D-level: A special instrument used to assist in the development of thunder element gene seeds.
Control conditions: 6,000 metal energy points
Control effect: Lightning element control - 150%
Control Ability - Thunder Body Forging: Can help the host to perfectly perform the Thunder Sixteen Exercises.
This is also a controllable item, and it is D-level.
This ability can help him perfectly perform this body-building method. According to Professor Wu, it can increase the development speed by up to twice.
This is not an intuitive blessing, but an increase made through the body-building method, and will not be repeated with the development progress of other abilities.
The most important thing is that this thing is equivalent to a portable training room, which is much more convenient.
"This method of physical training is quite difficult, but you should practice more and master the tricks, and try to be proficient in it before the start of the school year at Capital University of Technology," Professor Wu reminded.
"Student understands." Li Ming nodded and took control of it when he returned.
"It takes at least half a month to get from here to the capital planet by the fastest interstellar spacecraft. If it's slower, it could take a month. Although school starts in October, you need to arrive half a month in advance and leave by mid-August at the latest." Professor Wu was very thoughtful.
"There is still half a month left..." Li Ming nodded, there was enough time.
"Actually, I really want to take you away directly." Professor Wu sighed.
"Teacher, that's enough." Li Ming smiled: "No one will notice me, this is the best."
Afterwards, Li Ming implicitly expressed his desire to add a friend, paving the way for asking for star coins later. This body-building ball is quite precious, and what is even more precious is the body-building posture inside it.
Li Ming was too embarrassed to ask for an order, but Professor Wu refused.
Professor Wu shook his head: "The Star Network is not safe for me."
Too much information can be investigated through the Star Network. Every civilized government has the authority to access data on Star Network accounts registered within its civilization.
Li Ming did not mention the black hole network. Compared with the star network, the black hole network is even more difficult to deal with.
Accessing permissions to the Star Network at least requires a process, but the Black Hole Network does not require anything.
………
After leaving Professor Wu, Li Ming went for a walk. Although the situation at the top was turbulent, the lives of most citizens of Silver Ash City were not disturbed.
"Boss, how much is the genetic testing device?" Li Ming walked into a store and saw a dazzling array of holographic projection advertisements, and the light pollution was very serious.
"Ordinary ones are 5,000, better ones are 10,000, and the best ones are 30,000..." the boss said lazily, looking at the hot girl on the holographic screen, and the music was extremely loud.
Li Ming took a look and found that the ordinary ones were not graded, the better ones were F-grade, and the best ones were E-grade.
"It seems there is a price difference that can be exploited..." Li Ming realized, according to the calculation of going to the scrap recycling station.
One thousand points, thirty metal energy, to upgrade from non-entry level to F level, only thirty points are needed, and you can earn four thousand round trip...
After calculating for a while, Li Ming smiled. He forgot to calculate the value of time. Moreover, since it was sold by an individual, it should be calculated as second-hand, and the price would be greatly discounted.
If calculated based on the price of the Black Hole Network, he would even lose money, unless he could create the most basic detection equipment from scratch.
It didn’t matter if I wasted some time when my level was low before, but it’s unnecessary now. I might as well develop more genetic seeds.
It’s better to wait until the price difference reaches a certain level before considering it.
"Give me two of the best ones." Li Ming said. The lazy boss instantly became energetic, put a smile on his face, and didn't care about the hot girl anymore.
After packing up the two testing devices, I enthusiastically escorted him out of the store and invited him to come back next time.
I went back home after a long absence. Now that I have the Thunder equipment ball, I don’t have to stay in the training room all the time.
After consuming 6,600 points of metal energy, he took control of both detection devices and the Thunder Device Ball, leaving only about 6,400 points of metal energy.
Two E-level detection devices, each can increase his power by 60%, which adds up to 120%. A D-level gene radiator has an effect and ability that adds up to 300%, which is 420%.
There is also [Thunder Sixteen Styles], which can bring about 200% blessing, or 620%.
With the six-fold development speed, Li Ming was quite excited.
Li Ming immediately activated the [Thunder Body Tempering] ability, and then his limbs became uncontrollable. His hands were spread out, the three fingers of his left hand were curled inward, his elbows were turned outward, and his legs were trembling slightly at a high frequency.
The cells began to heat up rapidly, bioelectricity flowed through his body surface, and soon he felt pain.
Without the defense of a blast shield to lessen the pain, it came so violently this time.
Only ten minutes had passed, but Li Ming felt like he had no desire to live anymore, and sweat formed a pool at his feet.
Not only did he feel severe pain inside his body, but he also felt a tingling and numbness. He almost wanted to cut open his skin and pull out his blood vessels and tendons.
Fortunately, he didn't have to control his body. Li Ming tried his best to calm down, but this had the opposite effect, and he could feel the pain in various parts of his body even more.
In this torture, time passed by minute by minute, and night fell in the blink of an eye.
In the darkness, even though he was extremely tired, his breathing was still at a very even pace.
"grass!"
Finally, he was completely exhausted and collapsed on the bed, gasping for breath.
After a short rest, he materialized a detection device and a number appeared on the screen - 12%.
Six hours, a 3% increase?
The progress presented intuitively in front of him swept away the pain and fatigue he had just felt. He took out the nutrient solution he had bought in the morning and drank it all.
After an hour or two, it should be almost recovered.
The night is dark, and tonight, stars can be seen in the sky of Silver Ash City for the first time in a long time.
About half an hour later, without a sound, his bed exploded with a "bang"!
Li Ming stood in the corner with a cold look in his eyes. Not far away, a figure slowly stood up from the ruins of the bed. The tight black combat suit on her body outlined her curvy figure.
With the moonlight coming through the window, Li Ming saw that the other person was wearing a black mask. His eyes seemed somewhat familiar, and he wondered where he had seen him before.
