Chapter 394 The whole story is a mistake
"Ryan? Blood sacrifice?" Li Ming frowned, the word was unfamiliar yet familiar.
What surprised him even more was Prince Ryan's idea of sacrificing the entire Corona Borealis ring. This was a massacre that shocked the stars.
What method should be used? What's the purpose?
In an instant, a large number of thoughts were intertwined in his mind.
"Don't worry, tell me everything you know." Li Ming's calmness calmed Ford's mood somewhat.
Now that he mentioned it, his fear still lingered, and he took a breath before saying: "More than half a month ago, Archduke Xavier suddenly came to Asmara and said he was ready to intervene in the war between us and the Judge."
Li Ming's expression flickered, and after a moment he recognized the target person with this name. He was Asmara's fiancé, Nicholas's eldest son, and he has now succeeded to the position of Grand Duke.
Li Ming thought of Lao Wu again, and as his mind wandered, he couldn't help but ask: "They are not married yet?"
Ford, who was originally frightened, heard Li Ming ask about this gossip. The question couldn't help but pause, a little speechless, but still explained:
"Logically speaking, they should have got married six months ago, but at that time the news of the death of Grand Duke Nicholas came, and Asmara used it as an excuse to delay."
"I was also weird at the time. "Well, if Nicholas dies and Xavier succeeds as Grand Duke, it will definitely be a good thing for Asmara." Ford's expression became more and more relaxed, and he said more and more:
"Later I found out, It’s because several of Nicholas’s brothers are almost After carving up all his inheritance, Xavier has almost nothing except the title of Grand Duke. Before, he couldn’t even intervene in the war between us and the Judge.”
“Asmara is so realistic. , if you get married, you will help Xavier fight in the palace."
Li Ming suddenly understood and motioned for Ford to continue. After talking about this gossip, Ford was already quite calm, with a bit of sarcasm, so he continued:< br>
"That's Xavier, who still thinks that Asmara is one of his own, and has no idea that the truth about Gabriel's death was covered up by his fiancée."
"At that time, we were fighting fiercely with the judge. , Grand Duke Sanxue is dead, no one is helping us, Grand Duke Gu Ya has completely recovered, and we are retreating steadily. "
“At this time, Xavier arrived in person, found Asmara, and brought a few mysterious people with him, claiming that he would help us win.”
“He told some of the things I told Asmara..." As Fred said this, his eyes were distracted, and he vaguely remembered the afternoon when Asmara found him in a hurry.
He rarely saw that kind of panic expression on the woman he could call his aunt.
"Xavier asked Asmara to help them spread something called "blood seed" to every living planet in the Corona Borealis ring."
Ford said in a heavy tone: "Asmara told me that when that thing is activated, it will swallow up the life of the entire planet."
"Blood type?" Li Ming thought in his mind and searched around in his mind, but found no relevant information. He looked at Ford up and down: "Do you mind drawing blood?"
He did not believe it at first, and even doubted whether this person was Ford.
"It's okay." Ford sighed helplessly. He had already predicted Li Ming's character and rolled up his sleeves.
Pulling out a tube of blood, Li Ming asked his robot to test it, while he asked: "Why do you want to fake death?"
Ford explained in detail: "Asmara told me this, that is You want me to find a way to inform you."
"This matter involves too much, I even. I don’t dare to use the black hole network to contact you, and our core members are treated very seriously and can hardly find a chance to leave.”
I don’t dare to use the black hole network... Li Ming was silent, shook his head and said: “Actually, there is no need. After so much trouble, can the black hole network be trusted? ”
Can it be trusted? Ford paused slightly, feeling vaguely in a daze.
Li Ming didn't explain too much. He had done a lot in the past six months, and he had also conducted in-depth exploration of the black hole network.
After all, he also used the black hole network to do a lot of things. In the past, his ability was weak, and what he did was not a big deal.
But it is different now. We must find out whether this thing is really safe.
He is now in contact with quite a few major interstellar forces in the universe, but the black hole network is always as solid and hidden as an underwater iceberg.
Many people including Austin, even Abel, and the pioneers were mentioned.
I found that although many big guys have built their own communication networks through the Star Network in private, they still maintain a high degree of trust in the Black Hole Network.
Because the controller of the black hole network does not seem to be an individual, through various clues, he speculated that it should be an intelligent entity that gave birth to autonomous consciousness.
The emergence of the black hole network originated from the omnic crisis that was born in the Federation.
Before this crisis, Star Network also had a dark side, but it was all a small matter.
The omnic crisis caused the interstellar network to be disconnected for hundreds of years. Not long after it was reconnected in 2008, the black hole network came into being and grew rapidly at an incredible speed.
Although it has a high degree of intelligence and autonomy, the black hole network still acts according to the rules and has never violated them.
Interstellar bosses know this information more or less, so they trust the black hole network more, but ordinary life forms who do not understand this information have discussed many conspiracy theories.
Including but not limited to the black hole network, which is jointly controlled by the three major civilizations, in order to know in advance the people and forces that are destructive to civilization.
There was also a rumor that someone placed an order on the Black Hole Network in the morning and was taken away in the afternoon.
Asmara and others encountered such a big event that could shock the stars, so they did not dare to transmit information through the black hole network. After all, if they were not careful, they would be shattered to pieces.
"Then why did Asmara let you come to me?" Li Ming asked again: "Even if this is true, why should I help you?"
Qinglong killed Nikolai Er, in the eyes of the empire's senior officials and certain forces, it is basically an ironclad fact.
But people at a slightly lower level have no way of knowing this extremely secret information, and the empire will not take the initiative to publicize it.
So on the surface, he or Qinglong had almost no relationship with Prince Ryan. At most, they had a slight collision in the central world, but no one died.
Asmara seemed vaguely sure that Li Ming would help her.
Ford seemed to have still not recovered and looked in a daze. Li Ming asked again before he came to his senses, stabilized his mind, hesitated, and said cautiously:
"Because that blood type, in that Under the special request of the prince, the first batch of seeds will be planted in the Blue Star civilization and your home planet.”
Suddenly, Ford felt a chill in the room and hurriedly added: "To complete the entire plan, it will take at least half a year to a year, or even longer. The blood species need to be activated at the same time, and it will take a long time."
< br>Asmara told him at that time that Li Ming or Qinglong must have a deeper connection with Prince Ryan.
Otherwise, we wouldn’t specifically target a low-level civilization.
Li Ming had no expression on his face, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he still remained calm. He had one last question:
"This matter is not harmful to Asmara, right? Then Xavier will definitely protect her life." , and even the entire Etlan royal family, does she want to be the Virgin who saves the Corona Borealis Ring again?”
“The royal family can be saved, but the entire Etlan text cannot be saved. A citizen of the Ming Dynasty." Ford said sadly, knowing Li Ming's scruples, gritted his teeth and said: "You can let me search my memory."
Li Ming raised his eyebrows and looked at him with a look of death. Fred, he was silent for a moment, "No need."
Although there are still many questions, Li Ming has already believed most of them. Everyone knows that Li Ming is in the Mechanical King's Court. Rui En couldn't go to all the trouble to set a trap for Li Ming, he wasn't qualified yet.
Ford felt relieved and couldn't help but said: "Then...this matter..."
"You stay here first and find a way to contact Asmara. I'll go Report to the teacher." Li Ming regained his composure and made arrangements.
Ford nodded, with a complicated look on his withered cheeks. He looked at the familiar and unfamiliar Li Ming in front of him and said in a hoarse voice, "Thank you."
Li Ming smiled. Laughing, "By the way, what life levels are the people following Xavier at?"
Ford thought about it and shook his head: "I'm not sure. I haven't seen them take action. However, there is a guy who feels out of place with them. He doesn't look like Prince Ryan."
He frowned. Brows, "It's hard to describe, he is so weird, I have only seen him once..."
"Suzaku." Li Ming shouted, and the shadow of Suzaku appeared, standing on his shoulder.
"Suzaku is my artificial intelligence, just describe it to it in detail."
Ford nodded repeatedly, arranged his residence, and after sending Ford away, Li Ming looked quickly Convergence and smooth out its veins.
This news came a bit unexpectedly. He looked carefully and found the Corona Borealis Ring, thirty-six star clusters, one thousand four hundred and twenty six galaxies, one thousand eight hundred and seventy two living planets, and the number of intelligent life exceeded ten trillion. .
To kill them all, he felt appalling. If the news really spread, he didn't know how much trouble it would cause.
"Is it the empire's instruction, or is Ryan's own play?" He estimated that the Corona Borealis star ring was almost adjacent to the empire's territory.
But it is precisely because of this that if there is really an empire's instruction, it will not do this.
"If we were farther away, it might be the empire's instruction, but at such a close distance, why do I feel like Ryan is forcing the empire to go into the water in order to avoid an accident." Li Ming was thinking.
No one can withstand the backlash of this ring-level massacre being revealed.
Li Ming's eyes flashed sharply, and the maneuverability of this matter seemed to be great.
But a question arises. After paying such a high price, what does Ryan want to do?
With this information, Li Ming naturally couldn't figure out the answer, but it must be of great importance. What the enemy wants is what he wants to stop.
After roughly figuring out the context, he acted very quickly, his eyes moved slightly, he had already switched the [Quantum Communication Ring], and the next moment he arrived in the Iron Throne Hall.
The Iron Throne Hall has many functions. It can be done by summoning everyone or just a few people individually.
Not long after, shadows appeared in front of him and on the seats beside him.
What he summoned was the Navigator and the Bloodfallen.
The pioneers have been moving non-stop for more than half a year, but they are also very smart. The Polk Declaration is not the clarion call to launch a general offensive. They are still focused on cutting off the empire's tentacles outside.
The main activity location is the Sea of Stars, and the results are indeed remarkable. Ryan is almost restricted from going anywhere, and the number of imperial troops stationed is greatly reduced.
This can show from the side that the empire is indeed deteriorating, causing the greed of many careerists.
In other places, most of them are just ambush and there is no big plan.
According to Blackbeard's words, "How can there be so many big plans? Each big plan takes many years to prepare."
Li Ming occasionally came up to exchange information and so on. Several times By mistake, the true identities of several members were discovered.
"Qinglong?" The navigator was a little surprised. After all, Qinglong had never taken the initiative to summon anyone.
"What do you want from us?" The Bloodfallen was also surprised.
“I just learned something incredible.” Li Ming said.
"Unbelievable?" The navigator became interested, "What can make His Excellency Qinglong feel unbelievable?"
"Someone is preparing to sacrifice the entire Corona Borealis star ring with blood." Li Ming spit out a few words word.
After the words fell, the other two people did not speak for the first time, and the gray mist on the chair kept surging.
After a while, the Bloodfallen said with some suspicion: "Blood sacrifice to the Corona Borealis star ring? How come we didn't receive any news?"
No matter how you look at it, such a big event cannot go quietly.
The navigator asked: "Who is so bold? Dare to do things under the eyes of the empire? Isn't this a slap in the face of the empire?"
Corona Borealis star ring, adjacent to the empire Territory, the civilization in which it is said that it is not appropriate to tie a dog in front of the house, but it is almost the same.
The dog was killed and the owner still knows nothing?
"It's still under preparation. As for who did it." Li Ming paused and then said: "Prince Ruian."
After the words fell, the Bloodfaller spoke, surprised and high-pitched: "This is impossible... He is still involved in the Sea of Stars."
Li Ming glanced at him, so surprised?
The navigator was also suspicious, "Where did you get this news...?"
"It's up to you to believe it or not." Li Ming said calmly: "I'm going to take action on this matter and discuss it. Let’s make a plan. If done correctly, it will definitely cause serious damage to the empire.”
That's right, he was planning to use the power of the Pioneer. It would be difficult for him to handle such a big thing by himself.
Seeing that he was so sure, both of them fell into silence. After a long time, the leader said:
“Since you are so sure, let’s conduct an intelligence investigation first. Blackbeard and Hunter The Eagle has some power in the Corona Borealis, so let them cooperate.”
“If we are sure that this is true, we will take the next step.”
The Bloodfallen has been there. remained silent.
Li Ming also knew that more tangible evidence was needed to convince these two guys, and responded: "I will ask my students to go there and cooperate with them."
"By the way, I hope you two Don't leak this news to others," Li Ming reminded again.
"You should know the confidentiality of the Pioneer." The Navigator said calmly.
Li Ming knew the value of this sentence. Since the pioneers gradually surfaced, it is not that no one has jumped left and right.
The more accurate number is three, who were purged three months ago, two months ago, and one month ago.
