Chapter 354 Robin’s “Backstab”
"Provide help?" Li Ming repeated.
Blackbeard seemed to be afraid that the lion would open his mouth, so he added: "It's a corresponding help."
Li Ming did not dwell on this matter. Instead, he changed his tone and said: "Not even at all costs. Why do I feel that you don't care too much about this plan?"
Blackbeard was slightly stagnant, and even his breathing disappeared. After a while, a voice came from the screen, saying with a little helplessness: "Of course the plan is important, but it cannot be done at all costs."
Li Ming was noncommittal, but he also wanted to take this opportunity to gain some benefits.
But the matter was of great importance, and there were still many things that were not clear up. It would affect the whole body, so he did not agree hastily. He just said: "Let me think about it again..."
Blackbeard further said: "Your Excellency, as far as we know, several major civilizations have reached an agreement and will send high-potential seeds secretly cultivated and let the ruling holy elephant select them. There must be a result. Time is running out."
"Aren't you interested in the inheritance of the divine craftsman? The infinite weight hammer, and the most famous "Mechanical Holy Spirit" method of the hammer forging master." Blackbeard followed the temptation and wanted to say more.
But Li Ming interrupted directly: "I understand, let's stop here."
In a hotel somewhere in the central world, Blackbeard was sitting on the bed, speechless, sighing helplessly, watching the screen fall into darkness.
He couldn't help but knit his brows. According to the organization's normal procedures, if he wanted to join the ceremony, he would need to complete many plans and tests.
But now he is finding more and more that although he invites the other party to join, it is difficult for him to take the initiative in front of Qinglong.
Qinglong is too mysterious and has endless methods. This is something he has never mentioned as a test.
He estimated that if he really mentioned any test, Qinglong would probably get angry and flip the table without playing.
And this time, Qinglong needed to take a huge risk. He also felt that it was very difficult, and he was not sure whether the other party would agree in the end.
Even though the inheritance of the hammersmith master is tempting, Qinglong is too patient. He is not sure whether the other party wants it or not, so he can only try his best to persuade.
Who made that Li Ming be the first guy to attract the attention of the Holy Elephant?
Putting away the smart terminal, many thoughts passed through Li Ming's mind. He definitely didn't want to be an enemy of the Xingyuan Empire. A skinny camel was bigger than a horse.
Even if this empire becomes more decadent and drags its bloated body, it will not be a problem if it insists on killing one person, let alone him, even if it is the overlord of the Chaos Star Gap.
However, as for the governing holy elephant, let alone inheritance, the fighting power of the old elephant is extremely impressive.
As the guardian of the Star Abyss Empire in the hub world, Nagaint's development progress exceeded 60%, but it was suppressed without any resistance.
I don’t know if this old elephant can be controlled.
There is also the Mechanical Holy Spirit, which is a famous special technological method of the hammersmith. It is an in-depth study of mechanical bodies. It can integrate a large number of mechanical bodies into one, and ultimately form the "Mechanical Holy Spirit", which can explode with terrifying combat power.
Li Ming's thoughts were chaotic, but he fell silent again, and elemental fluctuations appeared on the surface of his skin.
Although the situation is complicated, it is always right to improve his strength, and in this case, he does not need to be too anxious.
"Just in time to collect news about the Stone of Terrax or the world of metal elements here."
Li Ming calculated that this is the distribution center of the main universe in the dimensional world, and there must be a large amount of relevant information flowing.
So, he sorted it out a little, and instead calmed down, continued to develop his gene seeds, unfolded the gravity generator, and directly pulled it up to four hundred times.
In the terrifying gravity range, even the flow of elements on the surface of his skin became extremely difficult.
So, about five or six days later, Robin knocked on his door hastily, and after slipping in through the crack in the door, he looked a little worried.
"Old Li, this is not good..." he said as he came in. Li Ming had already taken a twisted stance.
Robin has been busy these days. He was exhausted in the spaceship, so he has been wandering around the central world. Thanks to hanging out in the interstellar space, he has met many people.
"What's wrong?" Li Ming asked him to sit down, looking very calm.
"MD, yesterday morning, when I was wandering around, I found a group of soldiers who captured several life forms in front of me." Robin smoothed his hair and gestured:
"I felt strange at the time. There are no laws in this central world. Even if someone uses a disguised identity, most of them will turn a blind eye."
"I have been asking for a long time, and I have found out clearly. More than half a month ago, the three civilizations jointly formed a joint review team to screen everyone who found abnormalities during the process of selecting the successor of the Holy Elephant."
< br>
"The most important thing is that those who turn around and walk away near the sacred elephant are the key objects of observation. Each one will be marked and then reviewed one by one in order."
After he finished speaking, he said bitterly: "We turned around and left at that time. We must have been marked. I feel that it won't be long before we are traced."
“With the ID cards we applied for before, they know our whereabouts very well.”
Li Ming had probably guessed it a long time ago and just nodded when he heard this.
"You already know?" Seeing Li Ming's lack of reaction, Robin couldn't help but asked in surprise.
"I probably guessed it."
Robin couldn't help but said: "Then what should we do? How about leaving first?"
This is the base camp of all forces, and there are countless advanced life forms hidden there. If the two of them are discovered, Robin doesn't know how to escape.
"No need." Li Ming shook his head, this was not a dead end.
Robin hesitated, as if he wanted to say something, then his expression was shocked, he suddenly came to his senses and said suddenly:
"I almost forgot, even if they find you, they can't do anything to you. If they really attack you, the Mechanics Association will definitely not let it go."
When Robin said this, his words were full of envy. When he found out these things, he was still a little anxious and wanted to leave in a hurry.
He always subconsciously hides away from his past, fearing to offend others, and acts cautiously. Behind Li Ming is the support of a big boss, and behind the big boss is the behemoth Mechanics Association.
The Machinists Association has long issued a statement. Although it did not directly say that it would protect Li Ming, it also emphasized that no one would be allowed to play dirty tricks during the selection process.
Thinking of this, he felt a lot more relaxed.
Li Ming smiled and just shook his head: "Although I say so, it is unfortunate that one of my teacher's enemies happens to be the leader of this joint review department."
"The Bloody Archduke Nicholas, the teacher who always doubted me, killed his son."
Robin was confused, and his heart that had just been relieved suddenly became anxious again: "What do you mean?"
Li Ming looked Robin up and down, and suddenly said something shocking: "Lao Luo, have you ever thought about stabbing me in the back?"
The topic was off topic, which made Robin stunned for a moment. Then he suddenly came back to his senses, stood up suddenly, his expression was excited, spitting stars were flying around, "Old Li, who do you think I am, Robin? I will never betray my friends." People.”
Li Ming waited quietly for him to finish, then shook his head and said: "I misunderstood, I didn't doubt you, otherwise I wouldn't have let you wander around outside." Robin was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it, he said in a low voice: "I'm sorry. , I was stabbed in the back before and was stressed.”
Li Ming didn't care. He knew something about Robin's personality. Of course, this was just one of the reasons why Li Ming believed in him.
Another more important reason is that his butler will never allow him to do this.
Compared to the problems Li Ming is currently facing, if he is caught, he may be temporarily imprisoned, but the risk is not high.
Even if there is a conflict with Nicholas, it was Qinglong who did it after all. What does it have to do with Li Ming?
If he is willing to surrender to Nicholas, the Bloody Archduke will definitely forget his past.
But the secret behind Robin's body is different.
Both of them were caught, but it was Robin who was in greater danger.
"I mean, if you haven't thought about it before, you might want to think about it now." Li Ming said, Robin became more confused and couldn't understand.
Li Ming then explained: "I want you to contact Nicholas and have a good chat with the Grand Duke."
Robin was stunned for a moment before he realized what was happening. His expression changed: "Huh?"
……
The Star Abyss Empire, the Eternal Glory Federation and the Star Cluster Republic Alliance jointly review the review department.
Since it was proposed by the Star Abyss Empire, the headquarters was also set up in the Star Abyss Empire's residence.
Nicholas was standing in the command center. Thousands of densely packed surveillance screens were in front of him, monitoring the Holy Elephant and its surroundings from all angles.
The staff at their posts were busy all the time, and a low noise enveloped the room.
The number of tagged people on the screen continues to grow, but slowly decreases.
Nicholas glanced at the numbers, which now amounted to more than 400,000.
"Grand Duke, the application for troop transfer has been rejected. The other two parties are unwilling to send more soldiers to cooperate with the review work." Someone came to report.
Nicholas glanced at the two clear red words on the document - "Rejection", and a sneer flashed across his lips: "I have already predicted that as long as it is a joint matter, no one will be willing to put in more effort."
"But this is just right. Thirty thousand soldiers will be transferred directly from us to cooperate with the review work."
Albert watched from the side, and after the reporting staff left, he whispered: "Will Li Ming really come?"
"He will definitely come." Nicholas was extremely sure, "This is a master hammersmith, who can ignore it?"
"Unfortunately, it will take thirty days for the "cage" to be transferred. The process is too slow." At this point, his face darkened again.
Converging the information state is by no means a difficult task for a star-casting mechanic.
But convergence does not mean complete disappearance. As long as it survives in the universe, it will inevitably produce an information state.
The scientific name of the cage - the quantum information state cage matrix, is a very large-scale screening of the area from a more detailed level. This method is used when looking for the dark night, but the scale is larger.
But trying to mobilize this thing requires many steps. No one gave him the green light, and the royal family even deliberately made things difficult.
When he thought of this, Nicholas's face became ugly. He was very happy when he was stumbling for others, but he was very unhappy when it was someone else's turn to stumbling for him.
At this moment, Nicholas's smart terminal vibrated slightly, and the screen popped up, but it was one of his intelligence officers.
"What's wrong? Something happened in the main universe?" Nicholas asked with a frown.
The intelligence officer hurriedly explained: "No, a guy who calls himself the Phantom Thief of the Stars just found our contact information from somewhere and claims to have relevant clues about Li Ming."
"The Phantom Thief of the Stars?" Upon hearing this rather unique title, Nicholas's face changed slightly. With a swipe of his finger, he quickly pulled up a piece of information. The picture showed none other than Robin.
"Is he...the guy who was brought into the dimensional world by Li Ming?" Nicholas looked through the records. He had seen this person's information. He was a member of the Black Hole Palace, an interstellar mercenary, an explorer, and a scavenger...< br>
"Transfer it over." Nicholas' eyes flashed and he said immediately.
"Yes!"
The intelligence officer agreed, and after a while, a communication line came in. Nicholas glanced at it, paused briefly, and then answered.
"Prince Sanguine?" Robin asked first in a slightly frivolous voice.
"It's me." Nicholas said in a deep voice, getting straight to the point: "Robin, how do you know that I am looking for Li Ming now?"
"I don't know." Robin's answer surprised him, "But now I know."
Nicholas frowned and listened to Robin's explanation, "I just thought you would be interested in him. After all, his teacher seems to have done something that made you unhappy."
Nicholas' face darkened, "According to the information we have, you should be with Li Ming now. Why, are you going to betray him?"
"I'm not his subordinate. It's not a betrayal. I just need to get the maximum benefit." Robin said in a natural tone.
Nicholas was noncommittal and didn't know whether to believe it or not. He turned to: "Where are you now?"
"Alas, alas, alas..." Robin said loudly: "It's because of the Grand Duke that you don't know the rules?"
"What do you want?" Nicholas was not angry.
"Originally I just wanted to exchange some money, but now you seem to be more concerned about Li Ming, so I have to raise the price a little bit." Robin said philistinely: "You should know about the Stone of Terrax."< br>
Nicholas' eyes flashed sharply, "What do you want that thing for?"
"What do you think? Without Li Ming, I really wouldn't have known that the Stone of Tyrax had such a great effect." The coveting in Robin's words was obvious.
This is consistent with the information. According to their tracking and tracing of Li Ming's origins, he was probably the one who issued the bounty for the Terrax Stone in the Black Hole Palace.
It was this Robin who accepted the reward.
The Stone of Terrax is extremely versatile. It can be used not only as a collection, but also as a material for modulating S-class gene seeds, an energy conduction material for advanced weapons, and many other uses.
Within the empire, it is even said that enough Terrax Stones can guide the remaining ruins, which is extremely precious.
"How about giving me ten or eight dollars first?" Robin Lion said loudly.
Nicholas' expression remained unchanged, he shook his head and said: "Impossible."
