Chapter 447 is about to explode! (Sorry, I’m a little late)
The space-time passage connecting Yongyuan and the universe is very narrow.
Once there is some very "powerful" object, such as the remains of a huge civilization.
It is possible to block the entrance of the cave, causing more and more things to accumulate. Once it breaks through, it will be a disaster in the Red River, and a large number of unknown items will rush out of the Yongyuan, and even out of the Red River Star Stream.
Of course, this model is just a theoretical speculation and is not supported by any actual evidence.
There are only two Red River Cataclysms recorded in the interstellar world.
Although it is called a catastrophe, it is not a bad thing, because more ruins of civilization will be washed to the outskirts of the Red River Star Stream, creating a feast for adventurers and scavengers.
No one knows where those civilizations came from. There are many ruins of civilizations, and even after searching through interstellar history, no trace can be found.
For the three major civilizations, the large objects that can cause the Red River Catastrophe are of equally extraordinary value. The two previous ones were the ruins of powerful civilizations, and one was a super giant fortress, which was more than ten times the size of a conventional red giant.
As for what the other time was, Li Ming has not found relevant information.
"The Red River Catastrophe..." Li Ming thought, "I understand, you should always pay attention and don't act rashly yet."
He had already learned from Kostat that there was no trace of the Star of Eternal Silence in the outer ring of the undercurrent, and if he wanted to find it, he could only enter the inner ring.
But now, he has no plans to inform the Pioneers.
"Yes." Blackbeard nodded.
After ending the communication, Li Ming rubbed his fingers, not knowing what he was thinking.
Two days later, the smart terminal was shaking wildly, and someone came to see him again. It was Reynolds and Mikhail. After Li Ming connected, the virtual screen popped up.
Their big faces each take up half of the screen.
"We have discussed with the three major civilizations and will conduct preliminary negotiations in half a month." Reynolds on the left said, "An announcement will be issued soon to allow the mechanics to temporarily stop fighting."
"As expected, it will be exhausted and then declined. After this negotiation, the number of mechanics fighting will be greatly reduced no matter what the outcome is." Li Ming nodded.
"We have no choice but to use the Holy Spirit Ruins to try." Mikhail said.
"There is little hope." Li Ming shook his head, giving up hope.
Mikhail frowned, "Since the disappearance of the forging hammer, the three major civilizations have inquired many times overtly and covertly. They are very eager. This time, a large part of the reason for taking action is because of the ruins of the Holy Spirit Civilization, so that hope will not be lost."
Li Ming did not explain. At present, Adam takes one step and sees three steps, and the joint organization of higher life forms has been completed.
Adam would not have been able to form the Pioneer organization if he had been choked by someone during the partition of the Mechanics Association.
Li Ming naturally wouldn't say it was because he had great confidence in Adam.
Then he said: "Speaking of the ruins of the Holy Spirit Civilization, do you know that the star flow in the Red River has not been normal recently."
Mikhail frowned slightly and was dissatisfied with Qinglong's covert actions, but he couldn't blame him. He could only say along the lines: "Yes, it is very similar to the model of the Red River Catastrophe. For us, maybe not Bad things.”
"By the way, all three of us need to come together during the negotiation." Reynolds reminded.
"I will attend." Li Ming nodded.
After the short conversation ended, the Star Alliance and the Machinists Association soon jointly issued an announcement--
[Due to the recent mechanic dispute, in the near future, representatives of various civilizations and master craftsmen will have in-depth exchanges with a view to resolving the matter peacefully. 】
As soon as the announcement came out, many mechanics cheered, thinking that this was a victory in their struggle, and their willingness to negotiate meant a concession.
Many mechanics who are on strike are ready to resume production in the factory. This is a trick that kills one thousand enemies and damages eight hundred. No one can carry it all the time, and they can't wait for it.
Li Ming originally thought that he only needed to wait for negotiations, and then try to get as many benefits as possible for himself at the negotiation table.
However, a few days later, the black stone he stored in the starry sky had strange changes.
"The fluctuation interval has changed from 1.58 seconds to 1.42 seconds?" Li Ming looked at the screen in front of him. The black stone on it showed no change on the surface.
"What's going on with this thing..." Li Ming hesitated in his eyes, but decided to go up and have a look. He couldn't just leave it like this.
He left the core base and transferred several people from the prison at the same time, but without telling anyone, he flew into space quietly.
……
And just when he left the Mechanical Royal Court, an inconspicuous spaceship came from the star gate. After many verifications, it docked at the star port.
Anduin and Barbarol came out of the spaceship. After leaving the starport, they could see the magnificent Mechanical Royal Court.
There was a huge flow of people all around, and all kinds of life forms were constantly shuttling back and forth. Anduin couldn't help but sigh, "It's quite large. This Mechanical Royal Court seems to have only been established for more than three years."
"Backed by Qinglong, you don't know who this guy is. It would be strange if he didn't develop at this speed." Barbarol didn't care and urged: "Let's go."
"Wait a moment, I'll inform Qinglong first." Anduin shook his head.
"Wait..." Barbarol held him down, his eyes flashing slightly, "No need to inform him."
"What do you mean?" Anduin looked at him and frowned, "You're not going to force your way in, are you?"
"I'm just curious whether he will discover our existence." Barbarol looked indifferent, "Aren't you curious?"
"Don't say you're not curious. If you weren't curious, you wouldn't have asked me. You know I would stop you."
Anduin's expression stiffened for a moment, and then he put away the smart terminal as if nothing had happened. "That's true. I'm also a little curious, but don't destroy things at will."
"Don't worry, I'm not here to destroy the territory." Barbarol shook his head.
Anduin then stretched out his fingers, and runes surrounded the two of them. As the runes flowed, powerful energy fluctuations were emitted.
It makes their figures become illusory, as if they are in another dimension, sometimes clearly visible, sometimes blurry.
The two people turned into streams of light, traveling faster than the normal propulsion speed of the spacecraft, and silently passed through the protective barrier of the Mechanical Royal Court.
There was no early warning mechanism to detect them. They landed directly outside the core base, and the patrolling machines kept coming and going.
"There are quite a lot of A-level mechanical bodies..." Anduin glanced at it and said with emotion: "I heard that the Mechanical Royal Court has publicly offered rewards to the public. So far, no one can crack the mechanical bodies made by Qinglong, even the lowest-level machines. body.”
"So what?" Barbarol frowned and his reaction was mediocre. He was not interested in these technologies and only believed in himself.
Anduin knew that he was playing the piano to a cow, and shook his head helplessly, "You don't understand how terrifying this kind of technical power is."
"I really don't understand how terrifying this kind of technical power is. I only know that he didn't notice our arrival." Barbarol said indifferently, looking at the tall metal wall in front of him, "Let's go, let's give this Qinglong A surprise for you.”
Anduin became more and more speechless. Just when he was about to follow, his pupils suddenly shrank, and a large number of runes appeared in his eyes.
He suddenly raised his head and looked in a certain direction, "This kind of energy fluctuation..."
"Huh? You..." Sensing something was wrong, Barbarol turned his head and glanced, then spoke with slight dissatisfaction. Halfway through the words, he suddenly raised his head and asked in surprise: "What's going on?"
...Earlier, Li Ming stopped in a void of starry sky, followed by several life forms that were tightly imprisoned.
This place is quite far away from the Mechanical Royal Court. To the naked eye, the Royal Court has turned into a blur of light and shadow.
The body slowly floated forward, as if passing through a wave of water, and came to a specially built area.
The periphery is wrapped with mimicry equipment, and the interior is a circle of metal platforms. In the center, there is the black symbol stone floating.
It trembled more violently, and the circles of ripples almost formed a substance. It was surrounded by working machinery, and various instruments and equipment were aimed at the stone in the center.
"After studying for such a long time, I still haven't found any clues..." Li Ming hesitated in his heart, and Tan Wei attached himself, and then slowly approached.
Just like before, even stroking it with Tanwei has no effect.
When he raised his head slightly, a trapped life form floated forward.
This is the saboteur who was caught at the Stargate transit node not long ago, intending to destroy the transit node with a bomb.
Li Ming thought this was a guy sent by some enemy, and he muttered for a while, but it was too rough
The transfer nodes of the Royal Court are under strict supervision and patrolling. What he lacks most is the mechanical body, and he easily found the other party.

Later, after interrogation, I learned that it was not sent by anyone at all, but just a fool who wanted to be famous.
Because of the memory retrieval, he basically became a fool.
He squeezed the opponent's palm and grasped the black symbol stone.
The next moment, black symbols spread along his body, filling his whole body in the blink of an eye. The stiff cheeks were twisted and seemed to be in great pain, but they only existed for a moment before his body suddenly exploded.
"It's similar to the performance of the mechanical body at that time. The body is strong enough to be able to withstand it." Li Ming thought about it, raised his hand again, and a living body flew over.
His mouth and nose were sealed and he could not speak. He could only emit some weak mental fluctuations intermittently, and his expression was frightened.
This is an A-level life form, and is wanted for serious crimes in more than twenty-three civilizations.
Of course, in the chaotic star gap, it is an unspoken rule not to pursue the wanted order of his orderly civilization, so Li Ming also caught him secretly.
In the other party's frightened eyes, he also let him grab the black stone.
The black runes spread, and his expression became dazed. Li Ming suddenly took action and forcibly took down the black stone.
The A-level life form suddenly trembled, its eyes were blank, and the black symbols on its arms quickly faded away.
"Is everything okay?" Li Ming thought, and turned on the other party's mouth blocker, "I ask, you answer, don't say anything extra."
The other party looked frightened and nodded hurriedly.
"What did you just see?"
His throat rolled and his voice trembled: "I... I seem to have come to a strange world. It changes with every step I take, and then... suddenly comes back."
Li Ming nodded, locked him again, put it aside, watched for a moment, and found nothing unusual.
The tan guard on the surface of the body disappeared. Li Ming stared at the stone in front of him for a while, then waved his hand. The tan guard appeared beside him, connected to Suzaku control, and ordered: "After I hold this stone for five seconds, put me Pull it out.”
"Yes."
Li Ming took a deep breath, then stretched out his slender arm, spread his fingers, and switched the main battle system to increase defense. He hesitated for a moment, and then suddenly grasped it.
For a moment, his eyes were in a trance, as if he was passing through a colorful passage.
A moment later, he appeared in a whole new world.
Looking down, he saw that it was indeed his own body. He took a rough look at the world around him and knew that this was just a test, so he didn't care and continued to move forward.
Before he had taken two or three steps, his eyes suddenly cleared again and he returned to reality.
"Master, how do you feel?" Tan Wei made a voice, and Suzaku followed his instructions and opened his palm.
"I'm fine..." Li Ming regained his energy. Now that he was sure that there would be no problem in quitting in the middle, he felt more relieved.
With so many times of defense blessing, it will definitely pass the test. I don’t know what the inheritance is.
Thinking about it, he simply clenched the black stone tightly again, and after arriving in that weird world, he walked forward step by step.
With up to 700 times the defense blessing, his physical strength is comparable to that of a tank guard, so there is no problem.
At a certain moment, his footsteps stopped, and the surroundings were boiling like a hell, and the blazing temperature was like substance, making him feel anxious in his heart.
"One hundred and thirty-four worlds. The last time Tanwei walked through one hundred and thirty-five worlds, that voice came out."
Taking a deep breath, he stepped out suddenly, his footsteps fell, the world changed, and a voice sounded in his ears, "The test passed..."
Li Ming felt relieved, and then found that the collapsed world in front of him gradually condensed and took shape, turning into a scene similar to a laboratory.
There were scattered lights and shadows all around, and people were scattered around, but it was impossible to see clearly what kind of life forms they were. There were three unclear objects suspended on the experimental platform in the center.
There was a faint voice in a language he had never heard before, but Li Ming could understand its meaning.
"...The experiment is initially successful. As long as a suitable successor is found, the Trinity can be achieved..."
"...A suitable successor? How long will it take? Yongyuan will not give us this opportunity..."
"...our time is coming to an end..."
Yongyuan, Trinity?
There was a lot of information in it. Li Ming paid full attention to it, guessing that this might be a reappearance of a certain period of history. He didn't dare to slack off at all and listened carefully.
Suddenly, an inappropriate voice suddenly sounded: "...Non-female life forms, refuse to inherit!"
"Huh?" Li Ming was slightly stunned and didn't react immediately.
When he reacted, everything in front of him disappeared, and he returned to reality with a dark face: "I'm sorry..."
Wait... Before he could curse in his heart, his expression suddenly changed dramatically, and the black stone in front of him suddenly trembled at a very high frequency,
The surface expanded, and underneath the layers of black symbols was a ball of red energy.
"Is it going to explode?"
There was only one thought in Li Ming's mind.
