Chapter 214 Unexpected disaster in the distance The shrewd Asmara

"Do you think they will clear out the Land of Stars in advance?" Ulrich saw Li Ming's thoughts and couldn't help but ask.

“It’s just a whim.” Li Ming did not deny it.

"It's not impossible." Theo said suddenly, and Sandro the Bold's eyes became more solemn, "Huitong, if you know something, just say it directly and don't hide it. Cover it up.”

Theo shook his head and pinched out a virtual screen. It was a news report with a black circular logo in the upper left corner - Xingyuan Times.

"...At 7:13 in the morning, Archduke Guyal, who was on an inspection tour in the Empire's Semothra star cluster - the Baproll star system - Clint star, was assassinated."

"An ultra-long-range orbital-grade sniper bullet pierced Grand Duke Guyar's shoulder. At 13:00 in the afternoon, the empire issued a statement stating that Grand Duke Guyard's life was not in danger, and that the assassin was being rigorously pursued."
< br>"A big shot in the Xingyao Empire was assassinated?" Sandro was surprised, and then grinned: "I really deserve it, and I don't know who is so bold as to assassinate him."

"That is, he didn't. Kill him, if he kills him, the Star Empire will not go crazy?”

Ulrich frowned and looked at the news on the screen. He has been busy with the aftermath for the past two days, and how can he have time to pay attention to the outside news? .

It was also because Hotan was dead, otherwise such big news would have been reported to him. Thinking of this, he felt a little depressed again.

“Not dead, almost done.” Theo turned off the screen and said calmly.

Ulrich came back to his senses and asked, "What do you mean?"

Li Ming also looked over.

"That bullet was coated with information-state poison. Even if it only penetrated his body slightly, the poison has spread and will wipe him out of the universe." Theo explained, "The Star Abyss Empire is temporarily An information state stabilization device was constructed to barely keep him in a state of immortality.”

"Is the Star Abyss Empire just trying to make a fool of itself?" Sandro sneered, "The old empire isn't that good either."

"This is because the Star Abyss Empire hasn't figured out the attack behind it yet. Who is the perpetrator? I am not sure how to deal with it, so I will temporarily curb public opinion." Theo explained casually.

Li Ming asked: "What does this have to do with the Land of Stars?"

Theo was quite helpless: "The Star Abyss Empire issued a notice of co-investigation, and many star clusters responded. According to I got news that the attacker seems to be fleeing along the Red River Star Current."

"The Etlan civilization may respond to the Star Abyss Empire's call and deploy defenses in advance."

"Fuck." Sandro cursed: "Then he will be hanged again on the way to escape?"

"An unreasonable disaster." Ulrich shook his head, feeling more and more unlucky. This kind of thing can happen.

Li Ming was also quite speechless, "I hope the Torch Organization won't keep us waiting too long."

However, Theo explained: "I just speculated that although the Star Abyss Empire released a large-scale After receiving the cooperative investigation notice, these civilizations are not required to respond.”

“The Etlan civilization should still follow their own battle plan. So many people in the Silver Star Cluster are watching them. It’s so big, even if they want to make a surprise attack, it’s impossible, don’t worry.”

Sandro breathed a sigh of relief and said nonchalantly: "At worst, we'll run away early."

"If you ask me, let's hide in the Red River Star Current now."

Theo shook his head: "Once you enter the Red River Star Stream, all external communications will be cut off, and you will become passive."

Sandro just said casually, and then continued the topic, "Who is this attacker? You Is there any news over there?"

Theo said in a deep voice: "Not yet. It is said that the Xingyuan Empire wanted to retrieve information from the black hole network, but was rejected."

While several people were talking, Li Ming's eyes were distracted and he was thinking about another thing. He wanted to build more main ship-level turrets.

Although the number of times it can be fired is limited and you have to recharge it in advance, it is indeed very powerful.

No matter what, you have to stock up on enough numbers to kill A-level life forms at once, so that you can feel more secure.

However, the main ship-level turret is not easy to get. He checked it on the Black Hole Network and found that including miscellaneous transportation costs, one actually costs four to five billion star coins.

And his current balance is less than 10 million.

"The fleet in Ulrich's hands is all transport ships. At most, there are a few armed frigates, and the main guns on them are not qualified at all."

"I heard that Sandro has a large main ship, but it is not far away. It's too far here, and Teo also has it...but..." Li Ming thought about it, and there seemed to be no place to steal it.

“tnnd!”

Suddenly, Sandro roared, his two bull’s eyes almost popped out, and he gritted his teeth and said: “Damn Alphonse, how dare you take advantage of me when I’m not at home , snatch my floating island!”

Li Ming swept over, Alphonse, the land of stars, one of the other two A-level life forms, comes from the Lasos star cluster, and is mainly engaged in human trade. .

"I'm so tired of living, do you think I have no one under my command?" Sandro snorted coldly, "Guys, we are all in the same boat now, how can we let him bully us."

Ur Rishi looked at him indifferently, "This is your business. What does it have to do with us? If you want to go back and regain your place, no one will stop you."

Theo remained silent, his attitude was obvious. , they are just tied together temporarily, do they really think they are good friends who help each other?

“Forget it, I have something else to do, so I’ll go back first.” Li Ming stood up and walked upstairs leisurely.

His top priority is to become a B-class life form as soon as possible, and he is not interested in doing this thankless job.

If you follow Sandro, you might be able to steal the main gun, but the obstacles are huge. With several A-level lifeforms staring at you, it's not that convenient and it's not worth it.

"You..." Sandro's face turned ugly, and he suddenly turned around, but didn't even go out of the door. He snorted coldly and turned back.

He really didn't dare to leave casually, for fear that the three guys on the back would leave him behind as soon as he left.

Li Ming noticed Sandro's little movement out of the corner of his eye and couldn't help but shake his head. He returned to the room and continued to develop gene seeds.

Without the interference of other things, Li Ming kept developing gene seeds all the time, even if the development speed slowed down after exceeding 60%.

But the time spent makes up for this, and it still maintains a terrifying speed of more than 1% of the development progress every day.

Three days later, his development progress reached 82%. Looking at the screen in front of him, his eyes flickered, and Ford contacted him again.

However, the conversation message sent surprised him.

"Fuck, what did Asmara talk to you about last time? You didn't reveal anything, did you?"

Li Ming rubbed his chin and typed "?"
< br>

"My smart terminal was confiscated a few days ago. When I thought about it, it must be because of you. Didn't she trick you?"

"Or did you not see it? Impossible, right?"

"Tsk..." Li Ming was quite surprised and a little unpredictable, "You did have a conversation with me, and the words were weird, but I didn't talk much."

"I knew it. !" Ford seemed very angry, "Fortunately, you saw it."

"Why did the smart terminal be returned to you again?" Li Ming asked.

"After all, I am the son of the Prince of Baijan. It is not the first day that my father and Asmara have not dealt with each other. I have not committed any crime. She dared to directly confiscate my smart terminal and guard me like a prisoner. My father How can we just let it go? "

It seemed reasonable, Li Ming looked at the response, but the relationship between him and Ford was based on mutual use, and there was no trust.

In other words, as long as you can get benefits from this Ford, does it matter whether the other person is Ford?

Ford continued: "The confiscation of my smart terminal has a lot to do with you. Is the prototype of the nano-armor your teacher is wearing coming from the Ascended Civilization? Your teacher has a way to enter the Ascended One. Relics?" Li Ming didn't respond immediately and waited for another message.

"I'm careful here. I have to show my father the value. What do you want?"

Li Ming grinned slightly, which sounded a bit familiar.

On the other side of the screen, Asmara, Prince Baijan, and even Ford, who was sweating coldly, were looking at the big screen.

In the intelligence studio, everyone held their breath until a message jumped out from the side belonging to Li Ming, "I want to know, has Asmara been investigating the death of Isius? "

Fudd was numb all over and looked in a daze. He could only hear a series of discussions coming from his ears.

"Assessment of the confidentiality level of the question..."

"In the preliminary analysis, it is 85% possible that this is not the first time that the two people have exchanged information. In terms of the confidentiality level of the other party's questions, 70% of the previous information transactions The possibility has violated the interests related to civilization."

"Sure enough..." Asmara chuckled, "What a close friend, just an exchange of interests, Baijan..."

Prince of Baijan. His face was ugly, and his eyes passed coldly over the dazed Ford.

Ford secretly gritted his teeth, Asmara is such a vicious girl. After the last time her "best friend" had a personality problem, it directly turned into an "exchange of interests"

The key is, she really made her guess pretty well.

"As far as I know, Asmara has indeed been secretly investigating this matter. In addition, someone in the Star Abyss Empire is suspected of being involved, but I am not sure."

Li Ming looked at Ford responded, people from the Star Abyss Empire?

Is Isius so valued?

He pondered for a moment and replied: "Yes, that armor was indeed obtained by my teacher from the ruins of a certain Ascendant civilization and repaired and transformed into nano armor."

"As for whether there is a way to enter the ruins of the Ascended, I'm not sure."

"Not sure?"

"Your answer is too ambiguous."

Ford I was roaring in my heart, this was obviously not my tone.

To be more precise, this was not the tone of his conversation with Li Ming. Although he didn't want to admit it, he and the other party were in a weak position in the conversation.

Can't this guy see it?

"The answer you gave me is equally ambiguous." A message popped up on the screen.

Asmara thought for a moment, with a look of complete control, and then raised her hand to signal, "Tell him the situation No. 1."

"Forget it, I'll send you a message. , Professor Wu Yanqing escaped, Asmara is now chasing him, he seems to have taken away something precious, related to the relic of the Ascended One."

Li Ming raised his eyebrows and opened his friend sideways. page, and found Wu Yanqing’s account. There were several unanswered messages, mainly asking where he was.

The most recent ones are from more than a month ago.

Lao Wu defected?

Li Ming frowned slightly and squinted his eyes: "Then I will also send you a message. My teacher has found out who the person from the Star Abyss Empire standing behind Theo is."

Ford His heart skipped a beat, and Prince Baijan's expression changed slightly. He had known this news for a long time, but he did not tell Asmara, and even asked Ford to keep it secret.

As expected, when Asmara saw this line of words, her control over everything was broken, her brows furrowed in surprise, and then she looked coldly at Prince Baijan.

"What's going on?" She asked in a cold voice.

The Prince of Baijiang hesitated, but he also knew that since he had been exposed by Li Ming, he could no longer hide it, so he had no choice but to say: "Theo, the gray pupil of the power of stars, lost something not long ago. [Flower of Casablan]. "

"What!?" Asmara's pupils suddenly bloomed with a quiet light, and she understood many things in an instant.

The strange look was quickly concealed, but his expression became even colder.

“Found out? Who is it?”

Ford asked impatiently.

Li Ming smiled slightly, "I want a main ship-level turret, including a complete energy generator, which cannot be damaged too much."

"What do you want that thing for? That turret has nothing but It’s useful on the battleship, what else is it for?”

“You don’t have to worry about it. Do you agree to this deal?”

Everyone looked at Asma. La, Ford felt something was wrong. He didn't seem to let Li Ming check the information about the person behind Theo.

"Ask him where to send him?" Asmara said solemnly.

"I will think of a way to send the things to you where?"

"The land of the stars."

Asmara's sharp light flashed, and the conversation continued. .

“Are you also in the Land of Stars?”

"You don't have to worry about it. The things are delivered and the news is given. Besides, I don't have much time to wait. I want it within fifteen days."

"Fifteen days is too short. There is not much time. That’s enough, including planning, at least a month.”

“Friendly reminder, Black Hole Network can buy it.”

“Promise him!” Asmara suddenly said, and many intelligence officers said. He was stunned for a moment, then acted quickly.

“I understand, give me the detailed address.”

Prince Baijan couldn't help but remind him, Asmara, you are too anxious. "

"What you should be concerned about now is your son's treason. "Asmara's voice was cold and calm.

Ford's eyelids twitched wildly and he couldn't help but said: "Commander, you are making an accusation without reason. "

He now seriously suspects that Li Ming has noticed something is wrong and is using Asmara to get something.

The mimic personality imitates him perfectly, but the problem is that he pinches Li Ming. Ming has more than one handle.

The leaks of evolution and liberation secrets, and the video of the oath of allegiance to the Torch Organization.

Everything like this made him less confident when facing Li Ming. The two sides were not equal at all.

But it was impossible for him to explain this.

Asmara ignored him and looked uncertain, "Where is Wu Yanqing?"

"There is no information yet." His subordinate reported.
