Chapter 186 The real purpose of the combined fleet: Hidden Shadow Star Thief
After thinking for a moment, Li Ming asked again: "Asmara is the commander?"
Ford nodded: "The combined fleet is based on Asmara serves as the commander-in-chief, and my father, Prince Baijiang, serves as the deputy commander, and has assembled a fleet of thirty-two civilizations."
"They are all acquaintances," Li Ming couldn't help but sigh, "You are going. "Is it about military merit?"
Ford's face darkened, "My military theory is perfect after all. What is military merit?"
Military merit is the most valuable merit and can easily be promoted.
However, the Silver Star Cluster has been quiet in recent years. There have been almost no large-scale wars, and it is difficult to obtain military glory.
Perhaps out of guilt, he further added: "This time I took the opportunity to launch a campaign against the Torch Organization. There are indeed many people who want to join the United Fleet and get some credit."
"But I Unlike them, I have experience in commanding."
Hearing this, Li Ming did not argue with him, but said perfunctorily: "Hmm..."
Seeing Li Ming's perfunctory attitude, Ford felt depressed and couldn't help but said: "I'm not kidding you. My sand table simulation results ranked third among the three previous exams."
Although it is Although he is a young man, Ford rarely has the desire to compare. Even for a royal child like Isius who is better than him, he rarely proves anything in front of the other party.
Because the other party can mobilize more resources than him, so it is natural for them to be better than him.
But facing Li Ming, it was different. This kid was too defiant, and he was constantly frustrated. He always wanted to regain his position and did not want to be despised.
"Awesome, awesome..." Li Ming nodded, then asked: "How long will it take for the combined fleet to arrive at the Land of the Stars?"
Ford shook his head unhappily, "I don't know either."
Facing Li Ming's calm eyes, Ford subconsciously dodged and forced himself to stand up, "I really don't know, the United Fleet's The goal is not to wipe out the Land of Stars, the target is the Torch Organization."
"And right now, there is no accurate information to prove that the headquarters of the Torch Organization is in the Land of Stars."
"But we have it. There are many outlying bases of the Torch Organization, and they must first clean up those bases, complete the deterrence of the Silver Star Cluster, and make sure that the headquarters cannot be found before heading to the Land of the Stars."
Li Ming thought thoughtfully. The goal of the combined fleet is the Torch Organization, or more precisely, to make up for the damage caused by the Torch Organization to the Etlan civilization.
This fleet will obviously have to show off its power for a long time and complete all military, strategic and political goals.
"By the way, the Torch Organization has been in contact with the Great Mechanic recently and seems to want to build something. You may be able to start from this aspect and find the headquarters of the Torch Organization." Li Ming mentioned this matter, I don’t mind adding some trouble to the Torch Organization.
"We also know about this." Ford's eyes flickered and he sighed: "However, the major mechanics that the Torch Organization has contacted are not from the Silver Star Cluster, so it is difficult for us to ask them to cooperate."
Li Ming thought for a while and asked: "I can confirm that a great mechanic has been invited and is currently in the land of stars. Do you want to contact him?"
"Oh?" Fred said excitedly, "Who?"
"Jesiah..." Li Ming spit out a name, and Ford seemed to be familiar with it, and said immediately: "Silver meteor, mechanical knight bathed in fire, great mechanic-Jesiah?"
Li Ming There was a moment of confusion, what the hell, such a long string?
"He actually accepted the invitation from the Torch Organization." Ford obviously didn't know the news and couldn't help but frown: "In addition, Torch has already invited three great mechanics. What do they want to do?"< br>
"Alas..." Ford sighed again, "You may not know that the reason why Jessiah took the path of mechanical transformation is precisely because of us."
"Burning in Fire The knight is bathed in the fire of our Etlan, and it is basically impossible to contact him.”
Having said this, he glanced at Li Ming quickly and said, "It is very difficult to determine the headquarters of the Torch Organization. Unless there are mechanics working inside and outside, it may be possible."
"The Torch Organization is also coveting you. , regarded as our common enemy."
Li Ming narrowed his eyes, "What exactly do you want to say?"
"Your teacher? Did you accept the invitation? ?" Ford asked tentatively.
Li Ming chuckled, "It turned out to be this idea. I won't hide it from you. My teacher did receive the invitation, but my teacher was not interested in getting involved with the Torch Organization and refused."
"Rejected?" Ford was a little surprised and couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that your mechanics teacher has a great background. He can even ignore the ruins of the Ascendant."
The ruins of the Ascended One?
Li Ming's heart moved slightly. What Ford meant was that the mechanical master who was invited to come had access to the relics of the Ascended Ones?
The Torch Organization should not be so kind and would share it in vain.
They need something made by the great mechanic, which may be the key to entering the ruins. Li Ming guessed, thoughtfully, no wonder it can attract so many great mechanics.
If this is the case... the beam of light that just bombarded the planet seemed to have hit Li Ming's mind. A sharp light flashed across his eyes,
"Your combined fleet is making such a big noise. Is it really just for the Torch Organization?”
Fode’s face condensed slightly, and then quickly calmed down, “What do you mean?”
Li Ming stared at Fude: “Don’t you think so? Let’s use the power of the entire Silver Star Cluster to help you obtain the relics of the Ascended Ones?”
Fuck, Ford cursed secretly, how could this bastard guess it again?
"What a plan." Li Ming became more and more sure that his guess was correct.
The death of Isius gave Yitlan an honest reason to assemble the joint fleet. Although their family is the only one, the power of other civilizations cannot be underestimated.
It is perfectly appropriate to use the strength of others to do your own things.
"Alas..." Ford neither admitted nor denied, just sighed: "You really shouldn't have left. Once you leave, not only Asmara, but also my father and the senior royal family will treat you badly." Very dissatisfied."
He felt increasingly pity that Li Ming would have accomplished much if he were in the Etlan civilization.
"Your teacher can't protect himself."
Li Ming chuckled, "There is nothing that should or should not be done. I am not you, and they will not train me unconditionally."
F De shook his head. This was an irresolvable conflict. It was impossible for Etlan to cultivate an uncontrolled A-level life form.
On the screen, Ford's eyes moved slightly, and he gestured outside the screen, and then said half-jokingly, half-seriously:
"Let's do this for the time being, until the coalition forces go to the Land of the Stars. When the time comes, I will inform you to leave as soon as possible, in case you encounter him on the battlefield.”
The last thing Ford saw before the screen went off was the inexplicable smile on Li Ming's face.
"The combined fleet will have to wait for a while, which is good news." Li Ming thought to himself, "It's just that the collectors' estimates were wrong. This time, the combined fleet will not Leave easily."
He shook his head, drank a tube of development potion, and continued to develop gene seeds. Under the influence of the [Gene Warrior]'s ability, various evolutionary theories worked together in his cells, and his body was surrounded by flames and cyan airflow. .
Although his development speed was fast enough, he still felt it was not enough. "It would be great to jump directly to 100%." He sighed secretly. He has been looking for something that can directly improve the development progress, or improve the development progress sideways, but there are too few such things.
Early the next morning, Li Ming heard noises coming from outside, pushed the door open and walked out, his eyes changing slightly.
Among the floating islands, I saw a dozen slender spaceships coming towards the trading island. They were obviously standard fleets. The flags were painted with an upside-down dagger and a black pupil at the end.
"Night Eye Mercenary Group..." Li Ming frowned slightly. This is another big force in the Land of Stars. Their territory is relatively far away from the Floating Island, so it is difficult to see them.
They are different from the Star Hunters. They are mainly employed by big forces and civilizations, and sometimes even accept war-level employment.
The overall strength should be the land of stars, the most capable of fighting, and all the team members under his command are under military management.
The soldiers patrolling nearby pointed at it, looking quite surprised.
“It’s actually someone from Night Eyes. I may not see them once in several months, but this time they come with great fanfare.”
“Between the major forces of the Power of Stars There is an agreement that you are not allowed to enter other people's territory casually. There must be something big this time."
Li Ming opened the local network of the smart terminal. There were many people discussing this matter, and Li Ming soon found out the reason. .
"It is said that the guy who robbed the Night Eye mercenary group of valuables has not been found yet. The Night Eye boss became anxious and asked several other major forces in the Land of Stars to join forces to find him."
"That incident..." Li Ming recalled that a few days ago, there was a lot of news about the Night Eye mercenary group losing things.
He paid a little attention, and the A-level life form personally took action, but it hasn’t been found yet?
“I don’t know what I lost, but I seem to be in a hurry.” Li Ming muttered, but didn’t take it to heart. He turned around and went back to develop gene seeds.
However, what surprised him was that within a few hours, the collector actually came.
Ulrich looked at the mechanical body working on the floating island with calm eyes. He didn't care what the other person was doing on the floating island, as long as he completed what he needed.
"Your Excellency Collector." Li Ming came out to greet him and noticed the bearded man behind Ulrich wearing blue heavy combat armor with the Night Eyes logo on the armor.
Ulrich nodded, followed Li Ming to the simple reception room, then pointed at the bearded man and introduced: "This is the captain of the Night Eyes Mercenary Group - Lelian."
"Your Excellency Leilian." Li Ming greeted, and Leilian responded with a loud voice: "Your Excellency Qinglong."
Ulrich said: "He came here mainly because Night Eyes lost something. Thing, their leader, Theo, was very anxious and asked me to help with the investigation. There is some friendship between us."
"Your Excellency, Leillian, you don't think the person who stole the things is here, do you? "Li Ming frowned slightly.
Ulrich shook his head: "That's not the case. I promised to help them investigate. The port has given orders. The most important thing now is to confirm whether the person who stole the things is hidden inside."
Lelian said quietly. Said: "Please, Your Majesty Qinglong, please ask everyone on this island to come over."
Li Ming frowned deeper, wouldn't he want to take off the mimicry mask?
Is it really a lost item, or was Ulrich unable to resist determining their origin?
Ulrich added, "We only need their blood for comparison."
"Blood comparison?" Li Ming thought for a moment, "Okay."
Immediately, he called Yaro and Kai, each squeezed out a drop of blood, and compared it on the instrument.
Leilian raised his head, making sure he was not the target, and his eyes fell on Li Ming again.
"He won't need it, I can guarantee it." Ulrich took the initiative, and Li Ming was slightly surprised.
Lelian hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Are you sure there are only these two people on the floating island?"
"Not bad." Li Ming nodded. Yaro and Kai didn't know what they were doing yet, so they were careful and vigilant.
Lelian walked out, as if he wanted to conduct a thorough inspection of the entire floating island.
"There was such a big commotion..." Li Ming asked Yaro and the others to leave, and asked Ulrich to sit down.
Ulrich smiled, "After all, something was lost. The leader of Night Eyes, Gray Eyes - Theo, has a very bad temper."
"What was lost?" Li Minglue It is definitely not easy to make an A-level life form anxious with a little curiosity.
"It's a small thing, not worth mentioning." Ulrich had no intention of further explanation, but rather gloated: "This time Theo overturned the car and let a B-class life form steal the thing and run away. Get out."
Li Ming was not surprised to learn that it was a Class B lifeform. If it was a Class A lifeform, he would have run away or fought instead of hiding.
"Then this B-level life form should be very powerful." Li Ming agreed.
Ulrich continued: "Yes, this B-level life form is extremely good at disguise, and it is extremely fast. None of the B-level life forms in the Night Eye Mercenary Group can catch up with him. "
"Oh?" Li Ming frowned, "There shouldn't be many people like this."
"Indeed, there are not many. It is said that it is the Hidden Shadow Star Thief - Serad. This person is active in the Sophia Star Cluster. He works alone. He has extremely high stealing skills and has committed many cases." Ulrich said:
< br>"The biggest incident before was the theft of the Gutrian crystal diamond. His gene seed was biased toward speed, and the B-level gene seed was the rare [Quantum Light and Shadow Lizard]"
"Quantum Light and Shadow Lizard ?" Li Ming felt a little familiar.
“You also know?” Ulrich caught the change in Li Ming’s expression, and then said:
“It’s the Tiantian who was exterminated by the Etlan civilization and several other advanced civilizations. The spy race uses their genes to modulate gene seeds and can perform mimetic disguises.”
"At least, just from the appearance, it is difficult to see through A-class life forms, and ordinary detection equipment is even more useless. It is quite powerful. Many of the ace agents under Etlan have fused."
After the genocide. , and then made into gene seeds, tsk... Li Ming sighed secretly.
While they were talking, Leillian had already searched almost completely and was sure that he had not found the suspect.
After coming back, he specifically told Li Ming: "Your Excellency Qinglong, I see you have a lot of precious metal materials here. It's best to put them away and be careful not to lose them."
Li Ming Thanks for his reminder. I thought Ulrich would also leave, but unexpectedly the collector stayed. After watching Leillian leave, he seemed to have something to say.
