Chapter 270 The deepest hidden thing turns out to be...

Temporary evacuation?

In the laboratory, both sides showed some restraint during the confrontation, and only some fragile glass test tubes exploded.

Ulrich and others paused slightly, their expressions a little subtle.

After learning the general story of the matter from Konite, they were not surprised that the other party chose to evacuate.

The question is, once they leave here, can the Torch Organization still suppress them?

At least, it is unlikely that any isolation zone will be created.

Konit didn’t care what everyone was thinking, and just said in a deep voice: "Time is already pressing, and everyone’s things should be there too. We need to tidy up a bit, we will send someone to assist you."

"Wait, where is the evidence you just mentioned?" Seeing that Cornit was about to expose this matter, Ulrich immediately spoke up. Broken, eyes twinkling.

Cornett's expression calmed down, "Follow me."

A few minutes later, in the small conference room, the virtual imager continuously switched between various screens, and the printed materials were distributed to everyone, who passed them around.

Ulrich's eyes were strange, and he was secretly surprised. He glanced at the relevant evidence about Deyes. Most of them were intertwined. Some of the contradictions could also be solved by "the mysterious method of the Great Mechanic." "Say it.

Li Ming noticed that the Torch Organization also deliberately concealed a lot of evidence, including mechanical pocket watches, probably because they did not want to leak more information about Deyes.

"The Torch Organization has suffered a lot of losses this time. No wonder it's so angry, but..." He pondered in his heart.

Others were not too concerned about this matter. They glanced at it casually and quickly dispersed.

On the way back, Sandro was still muttering, "Isn't this Deyes really hiding inside the Torch Organization? If he tries to make some small moves again, wouldn't it be very dangerous for us?"

No one paid any attention to him, so they each went back to their rooms, subconsciously locked the door, and Li Ming lay on his back on the bed.

“Konit’s suspicion is not serious.”

He guessed that Konit might be suspicious in the face of various evidences, but he did not expect that the other party would not even be injured. He had time to recover and came directly to test them.

However, since he turned an army against him, he had no choice but to let it go.

"The evidence that Deyes is an enemy is not false..." Li Ming shook his head. He was not afraid of lying, but was afraid of nine truths and one falsehood.

Ninety percent of those evidences are true and are well-documented within the Torch Organization base.

Even if the audio file is recompiled, it is still a lot of work to find one or two lies from the real conversations.

Under such circumstances, Cornett could still think of trying to blame him. He was no longer suspicious by nature, but simply suspicious.

Li Ming packed up his things casually, his eyes suddenly flashed slightly, "No, I got it wrong. He is not necessarily doubting me, he is doubting everyone."

"It's just that on the surface, I seem to have the highest technical level, and I'm quite mysterious. If anything bad happens, I will be thought of immediately."

Shakes his head, of course, the persona shown to the outside world is not No good at all.

At least when the other party wants to take action, they have to think carefully.

Deyes has disappeared without a trace, and the remaining parts of the sublimator have not been completely completed, so we still need to rely on him.

Whether it is temptation or doubt, it can only be suppressed temporarily.

After cleaning up for a while, there was a knock on the door. It was Theo, wearing a neat black suit, thin and gloomy.

Li Ming was surprised and asked him to come in. Theo nodded slightly.

After closing the door, the two sat opposite each other, saying nothing for the first time, and the atmosphere was silent.

Finally, Theo spoke first, expressionless: "Do you think Deyes really has that ability and means?"

"Maybe." Li Ming was noncommittal. , "This should have nothing to do with us, the losses are all to the Torch Organization."

"But with Deyes disappearing, the manufacturing of sublimators has hit a bottleneck." Theo's gloomy eyes stared closely at the great mechanic in front of him: "I wonder if Lord Qinglong has thought about the next manufacturing work. "

"So what?" Li Ming tapped the table carelessly, "So what?"

Theo was silent for a moment and then said: "I don't think the Torch Organization has a plan. And the idea will succeed."

The topic seemed to jump a little, and Li Ming grinned, "Sir Theo, it might not be good if those from the Torch Organization hear this."

"That's true." Theo said solemnly: "The Torch Organization only operates in the Silver Star Cluster. They say they are a regional resistance organization and they are all flattering."

"They are used to taking chestnuts from the fire under the pressure of the Etlan civilization. They may think that this time is similar to many previous actions."

"But in fact, this time, they have no qualifications to take chestnuts from the fire. Star The Yuan Empire has already intervened. If they insist on going their own way, they will only destroy themselves."

Are you talking about the Torch Organization or me?

Li Ming narrowed his eyes, "So, in your opinion, what should the Torch Organization do to have a way to survive?"

"The intervention of the Star Abyss Empire is just a broad concept. Technically speaking, there are still two forces fighting. The Etlan civilization is on one side, and the Torch Organization can choose the other side." Theo said solemnly.

Let him choose? Li Ming held his chin with one hand, looking careless. Theo continued:

"After all, this is the area of ​​influence of the Star Abyss Empire. If we really confront the Star Abyss Empire, is there any way to survive? ?”

Li Ming thought for a moment and suddenly said: “Is it really Grand Duke Guya behind you?”

Theo’s face changed slightly, and the riddle was played well, and he was suddenly put on the table. This made Theo somewhat uncomfortable, but he quickly adjusted and asked: "What do you think?"

He didn't think Li Ming would snitch. They are all on the same boat now. Who would want to Jumping off the ship is tantamount to seeking death.

Li Ming smiled slightly, then turned to ask: "What do you want me to do?"

Theo hesitated for a moment, then said: "Make the sublimation device, and then help me get this thing, in addition to the sublimation source crystal In addition, you can choose other things."

"Tsk..." Li Ming muttered: "It sounds like the conditions of the Torch Organization are not very attractive."

Theo. He frowned and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Li Ming: "This matter is not urgent, let me think about it."

He stood up and already had the intention of seeing off the guests.

Theo frowned slightly. He originally thought that after asking Sandro to convey his wishes last time, Qinglong had considered it in his mind and had a tendency to say it.

It’s not like he’s still wavering now. Seeing that time is running out and the manufacturing progress has come to a standstill, Theo can’t help but feel anxious.

Looking at the other party's obvious attitude of seeing off guests, his eyes were slightly cold, and he said with a cold face, "I hope you will consider it carefully." and left.

The Torch Organization is also very anxious and will definitely raise the price and let Qinglong produce it.

Although the two were on the same front not long ago, jointly dealing with the threat from the Torch Organization, it was not for anyone else, but for their own interests. Therefore, Li Ming has no idea of ​​helping Theo now.

He doesn't care at all in whose hands the sublimation device falls. What matters most is whether it is in his own interests or not.

“If you rush, you will make a mistake.” Li Ming shook his head.

Next, it is time for the Torch Organization to prepare to evacuate. It is obviously impossible for such a huge organization to completely evacuate in a short period of time.

Coupled with the packing of a large number of staff and various instruments, there is even the temporary sealing of dimensional cracks.

It is said to be an emergency evacuation, but it cannot be done within ten days and a half.

The situation has its own priorities, and it is obviously impossible for Cornette to wait until the last group of irrelevant staff members are packed up before leaving.

They were naturally the first batch to head towards the Red River Star Stream as soon as possible.

There are not many things to carry. Basically, the entire core laboratory must be emptied, plus some necessary supplies.

In three or four days, in order to avoid accidents, Li Ming only used [Shadow Sting] to go out once, mainly to inquire about the evacuation of the warehouse where dimension crystals were stored.

What surprised and reassured him was that those dimensional crystals would follow Konite and the others onto the main ship and head towards the Red River Star Stream.

When he first learned the news, Li Ming was surprised, but after thinking about it, he realized that in his opinion, this was a valuable item.

But from the perspective of the Torch Organization, these things are weapons. Next, they will face the battle for the core ruins, so they naturally have to bring these weapons with them.

After confirming this, Li Ming felt at ease.

Two days after the confrontation in the laboratory, the senior management of the main base, Ted, was reporting on the relevant evacuation work.

"The overall retreat plan is divided into five batches. The first batch has entered the final stage. The "Conil" and the attached fleet are ready and can set off at any time."

"The second batch of experimental personnel and The retreat of the middle-level core personnel is also on track..."

As Konite listened, the scars on his skin had almost healed, and the bloody hole in his left eye was wrapped with white gauze.

Kevis leaned on the sofa, his head tilted back in a strange posture.

After the report, Ted left in a hurry. As soon as he went out, he ran into Pierre who was coming quickly. The two passed by each other and nodded slightly.

"Chief, your Excellencies..." After entering, Peel said hello, and then quickly reported:

"According to the previous order of the chief, my colleagues from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and I, during this period, summarized all The timelines of the Great Mechanic and the A-class life forms.”

“According to analysis, the timelines of Zog and the others being hypnotized did not match up on several occasions because he was in the core laboratory at the time.”

"Oh?" Covis became interested and raised his head: "Is there anyone whose timeline can match completely?"

"Yes." Pierre nodded and said, "Tai Austria, Ulrich, Huber, Sandro, Brot..."

"Aren't they all great mechanics?" Covis frowned, and Cornette asked subconsciously: "There is no Qinglong?"

"No, when Zog was hypnotized, the surveillance video clearly captured him in the corridor. "Walking around in the corridor."

Pierre hesitated: "His mechanical body wanders outside the corridor every day, but that's all."

"Theo..." Fernand. His face looked very ugly, and he felt an inexplicable coldness on the back of his neck.

"I think his biggest problem is that he can approach us quietly without being discovered at such a close distance. Sneaking into the main base probably won't be a problem."

"Or Brot...he wasn't dead at that time." Kovis shook his head: "The trouble now is that Deyes is dead, and now it seems that only Qinglong can take over the production of sublimators."

"He seems to be a little passive and slacking off, waiting for a price."

Fernand frowned, glanced at Pierre, waved him to leave, and after the door closed again, he said in a deep voice: " Even if the sublimation device is manufactured, we don’t have sublimation particles available.”

Konit put his hands behind his back, “The top priority is...”

Halfway through the words, he was stopped by the video terminal. The bell interrupted, "The leader, Big Mechanic Benny, wants to meet with you and the other two Your Excellencies."

"Benny?" The three of them looked at each other.

Soon after, they saw Benny, who was hunched over in the small conference room. His pale yellow skin was covered with wrinkles and age spots.

"Your Excellency Benny..." Cornette asked him to sit down, Corvis looked careless, and Fernand had a sullen face.

Among the four great mechanics, Qinglong is the most mysterious, Deyes contributes the most, Jesiah is an A-level mechanical transformation, and Benny has a very low sense of existence.

"Several people..." Benny smiled helplessly, "The manufacturing of the sublimator has been stagnant for several days. If we don't think of a way, we may not be able to catch up with the tide."

"Why did we invite you here?" Fernand said very rudely: "With Deyes disappearing, you can't do anything?"

Cornett shook his head and said calmly: "We I understand what you mean, and we will deal with this matter as soon as possible."

"No, you don't understand." Benny's expression calmed down, and he looked around the three of them, his expression becoming unpredictable, "Mr. Corvis said very clearly. Yes, but even if the sublimation device is made, can you use it?"

"Huh?" Cornette was quite surprised when he noticed Benny's different attitude.

"You..." Fernand looked at Benny in surprise.

Benny smiled and said leisurely: "No matter when any civilization is destroyed, it will leave behind the fire, the most core technology, the most core people, and the most core culture."

"Some may be lost in the stars, Some have always existed..."

"Okay." Corvis interrupted and said with interest: "You mean, you are a remnant of the Ascended Civilization?"

" I remember they don’t look like this, right?”

“Unfortunately, you guessed wrong.” Benny shook his head, “I am not a remnant of the Ascendants, but I can contact them.”


There was silence in the room, and Cornette stared at him closely: "No wonder you agreed so quickly."

Then, his expression calmed down, and after Deyes' "baptism", his mental endurance improved. Quite a few, he said solemnly: "What do you or they want? I can't give you the sublimation source crystal, and you can talk about other things."

Benny kept the smile of a good old man, "Even if you get Can the sublimated source crystal be used? "

"It's a genetic verification mechanism." Covis already guessed it and sneered: "Only the sublimated family can use it, right?"

"You can say that, but it's more than that." Benny smiled gloomily: "Actually, we can cooperate."
