Chapter 297 The sudden undercurrent of stars and the "recruitment" of Archduke Stinging Blood
But now, it seems that a third person has intervened. Although they don't know what they want to do, they should not deviate from their ultimate goal.
"On the contrary, it saved me a lot of energy." His eyes flickered: "However, there is still an opportunity to detonate."
…………
< br>“Why are the coordinates flying all over the sky?”
In the Coyle, Benny stared at the virtual screen in front of him, trembling all over, and his eyes were bloodshot: "There is also a detailed explanation of this core relic treasure. Who spread it out!?"
Ulrich glanced at him lightly, but no one paid him any attention.
"Qinglong, where is Your Excellency Qinglong? He hasn't shown his face for more than ten days." Benny looked around, as if he was crazy.
“Why did you call us here so urgently for this nonsense?” Sandro muttered dissatisfiedly: “If you want to know the answer, go find it yourself.”
"I..." Benny suppressed his face until his face turned red, and Monroe said calmly: "Your Excellency Qinglong will naturally show up when it's time to show up, just wait patiently."
"Wait...?" Benny's heart twitched and he stared at Monroe, but he was helpless.
The origin of this guy who suddenly appeared is unknown. After Qinglong disappeared, this guy took charge of everything on the main ship.
As long as Cornette, a coward, has no objections, the three guys from Theo actually have no objections either.
He really couldn't figure out what was going on and couldn't leave. This feeling of depression almost drove him crazy.
"Old man, the core ruins are right in front of you. If there are any changes, we will know immediately. I see you are panicking." Sandro sneered and was the first to leave.
Others also left one after another.
…………
“Your Excellency, Admiral, I have been in and out of the Red River Star Stream hundreds of times, and I am as familiar with this place as home.”
Dark golden On the Trident deck, a rickety old man with a beard got off the spacecraft and stood shivering in front of Antonio.
Antonio with a majestic expression looked at him, then looked at the men next to him, and said coldly: "Is this the way you said you can defeat the United Fleet?"
"Blackbeard!" His subordinates hurriedly scolded: "Stop being pretentious and tell me your method."
Blackbeard nodded and flattered: "Your Excellency, you have followed your father on the Red River Star since I was a child. Living in the stream, I have experienced no less than dozens of tidal periods..."
As he spoke, Blackbeard shuddered and saw Antonio's almost murderous gaze. He hurriedly stepped into the focus and said in a trembling voice: " I have a way to trigger the undercurrent of stars!"
"Huh?" Antonio looked slightly shocked, looking up and down at Blackbeard: "The undercurrent of stars, just by you?"
"Of course I do. Without this ability, only an extremely harsh environment can be used to create an undercurrent of stars. If the environment allows it, it can continue to expand and move in a specific direction."
Antonio frowned slightly. The undertide of the star stream is an extremely dangerous disaster near the Red River star stream. It is a tide of dark energy flowing in the mezzanine space.
If the scale is large enough, it may indeed cause great damage to the immobile joint fleet, or at least create an opportunity for attack.
He still looked suspicious, but he might as well give it a try, "Okay, including me, the whole army will cooperate with you. If you succeed, you will gain tremendous wealth. If you fail, I will kill you. "
Blackbeard's face turned pale, full of bitterness, "Yes...yes..."
......
"Yes, father..." Gabriel looked respectful and stood in front of the table. The smart terminal above reflected a black virtual screen. Only the white sound wave lines undulated. His voice was low and mellow:
"For this kind of Special talents must be tolerant and don't care what they say. As long as the genetic lock is engraved, they will be used by us. In order to take care of their self-esteem, it's okay to say a few nice words."
"You discovered him. In the future, it will also be used by you..."
Gabriel's expression was dark and unclear: "I will convey your intention to him. I believe he will be extremely honored to favor you. "
……
"Beep——"
The blockade light changed from red to green. Li Ming unexpectedly raised his head and glanced at the virtual clock on the wall. It wasn't time for free activities yet.
The cell door opened, and the soldier in charge of guarding looked over and said, "Your Excellency, His Highness Ford is here to visit the prisoner."
"Ford?" Li Ming nodded thoughtfully.
When I went out, I saw Verdego standing not far away, wearing a decent military uniform, standing upright, with his hair slicked back.
There are seats in the common areas of this special confinement area.
"I didn't expect that when you and I meet again, it will be like this." Ford sighed after sitting down.
"How about it? How do you feel when you see me become a prisoner?" Li Ming smiled.
"I don't have any thoughts." Ford smiled bitterly, scratched his hair, and couldn't help but ask: "How did you get caught, so careless."
"I'm not Isn't it normal for someone who is omnipotent to be caught?" Li Ming shrugged.
Ford was speechless and sighed: "Actually, it doesn't matter. With your terrifying development potential, even if you are caught, no one will do anything to you."
"What do you think, stabbing blood The Grand Duke is very interested in you. I heard that if he were not afraid that you would be kidnapped by Qinglong, he would send you out immediately."
Li Ming was slightly surprised, and he really underestimated the impact of this development potential.
Level 46 is a level he specially selected, and it needs to be in line with his own development progress.
Fortunately it was not higher, otherwise instead of sending the combined fleet, he would have been sent directly to the Star Abyss Empire.
"But Gabriel is quite resentful towards you, or more accurately, your teacher. He has been holding a grudge since he was tricked by your teacher last time." Ford reminded carefully:
"It is said that Gabriel Lie was ready to search your memory directly, but your development potential was too scary, and Ronan also stopped him, so he had no choice but to stop."
"Earlier, Asmara specially gave it to Gabriel. A communication line has been opened. It is probably because of his father's order. I guess it has something to do with you."
"He may come to you and tell you the price, and he may also threaten you, so don't pay attention to him. , be sure to hold back until you see the Bloody Duke."
Li Ming looked at Ford up and down, shook his head and said: "If you show courtesy for nothing, you are either committing adultery or stealing."
Ford's face suddenly became embarrassed, and he said calmly: "We are old friends too, don't I care about you?"
"Of course, it would be great if you have the opportunity to take care of me in the future. "
Li Ming laughed, meaning: "Are you so sure that I will surrender to the Bloody Duke?"
"Do you... have any other choice?" Ford was startled. Jumping, he couldn't help but advise: "Brother, don't commit suicide. Don't waste such high development potential."
"Haha..." Li Ming shook his head and asked instead: "The core ruins How’s it going over there?”
"Are you still concerned about this?" Ford's eyes were surprised and he said silently: "The initial materialization has been completed and the finishing work is in progress. It should be in a few days."
Li Ming was thoughtful, then stood up and said : "Okay, thank you for the reminder." Ford hesitated, looked at Li Ming's back, and added: "That's the Bloodstriker, no shame."
No response was received, because Li Ming had already turned around and walked into the prison cabin. Ford shook his head helplessly.
He knows a little about Li Ming. He seems to be carefree, but he has a strong sense of pride, but he doesn't show it very well.
I came here specially because I was afraid that he would be provoked by Gabriel who vented his grievances and suffer in vain.
As expected, less than two hours later, Gabriel came.
This time, Li Ming did not go out, but just sat casually on the bed.
In the narrow cell, Gabriel stood expressionlessly in the open space, followed by his personal bodyguard Ronan.
"How do you feel?" His voice was calm.
"It's okay, but the suppressor on my body is not very comfortable." Li Ming said casually.
Seeing the other party's appearance, Gabriel didn't know why. He thought of Qinglong again, and an unknown fire suddenly rose. He lost his mind of being imaginary and resigned, and said coldly:
"My father asked me to tell you that as long as you are willing to carve a gene lock and work for him, he can give you everything you want."
"Everything you want?" Li Ming couldn't help grinning, "Tsk tsk …"
Seeing his nonchalant look, Gabriel became even more dissatisfied. His father was the Grand Duke of the Empire, a big shot that countless people wanted to see but could never see.
He said coldly: "Isn't this your purpose? You will be emboldened when you are caught, and you also know how much you are worth."
"Why bother pretending to be reserved now? I might as well tell you that you Konite's whereabouts were leaked, and the consequences of your teacher's mess fell on you."
Gabriel's eyes were cold: "Whether you agree or not, you will eventually be engraved with a genetic lock. , also known as the "dog leash", you have no choice."
Li Ming stared at him and suddenly asked: "How old are you?"
Gabriel frowned. The light became colder and colder, and Ronan whispered: "Your Highness."
Gabriel snorted coldly, "I don't know."
He did not wait for Li Ming's answer. He left these words and left. After the cell door was closed, Ronan said hesitantly:
"Your Highness, is your attitude too fierce?"
"I have read his information and psychological profile. He has arrogance in his heart and needs to be polished off." Gabriel Expressionless.
Ronan sighed helplessly.
.........
Just five days later, countless warships of various types gathered outside the combined fleet's reconnaissance area. They all looked old and uneven, and some warships even had repairs on their outer shells. traces.
"I really agree with what you said. It will take a lot of energy to kill all these guys." Among the Ring Guards, several commanders chatted one after another.
This situation has been going on for several days, and in the coming time, it can be foreseen that more fleets will gather,
"I heard that the core ruins have been prepared. It’s almost done. If we delay further, some big guys might come from far away.”
"I'm not sure. Let's just follow the order... Huh?" A human commander was suddenly surprised. He pointed at the fleet that suddenly dispersed on the screen.
"What's wrong with them?" he asked subconsciously. Before he finished speaking, a piercing alarm suddenly sounded in the entire command room.
"Warning, we have noticed ultra-large-scale energy tidal fluctuations and mezzanine energy convergence. The model matches. It is suspected to be a star stream undercurrent. Please avoid it as soon as possible!"
The commanders looked at each other with expressions on their faces. Suddenly it became extremely terrifying, an undercurrent of stars! ?
After receiving the news, Asmara has rushed over. All the senior officials gathered in the command room. Now they have no time to worry about how there is such a large undercurrent of stars rushing towards them.
The virtual screens went out one by one, and various reports continued: "The peripheral probe has been destroyed, and the estimated collision time is thirty-four minutes."
As soon as the words fell, there was a gasp, and their probe The needle had spread beyond the range of three days.
Even if the jump voyage takes three days, the undercurrent of stars can roll in in thirty minutes, which is really scary.
Asmara looked solemn, reacted quickly, and said in a deep voice: "In the next thirty minutes, we will shrink the formation with all our strength, and all joint shield generators will operate at full power."
" The bomber ship and the main ship turret were all charged, aiming at the direction of the undercurrent of the star stream, and carried out the first wave of reductions,"
"In addition, with the Ring Guard as the center, carry out multi-layered protection!"
Everyone did not dare to neglect, sweating profusely, orders were passed on one after another, and the loose joint fleet formation began shrink rapidly.
Time passed by minute by second, Asmara stood on the porthole, her face gloomy, but her heart was filled with doubts.
She is worried not only about the undercurrent of stars, but also about what may happen next.
The dark starry sky was filled with astonishing energy reactions, like an area with a bug, flickering non-stop.
In the visualized energy spectrum, it is like an overwhelming wave, coming at a seemingly slow but actually extremely fast speed.
The dilapidated battleships along the way were trying their best to avoid it, but in the face of this interstellar natural disaster, everything seemed so powerless, and they were quietly involved in it, without even a spark.
In the command room, everyone held their breath and waited patiently.
“We have entered the scheduled range and are ready for bombing!”
“3, 2, 1!”
boom!
The fully charged fort spewed out a blazing pillar of light, and a torrent of colorful energy roared out. The dazzling light illuminated the entire area, and under everyone's attention, it rushed into the pitch-black wave. middle.
Boom!
Everyone was thinking about the sound. Water-like patterns appeared in the space. The void was distorted. Even the stars in the distance disappeared in an instant.
This is a closed state formed after space has been distorted to the limit. The inside and outside are isolated, and even light is no exception. Continuous explosions can be seen in extremely distant places.
Immediately afterwards, as if ignited, bright blue lines of fire spread in all directions from the impact point, as if setting off an endless and magnificent sky, and the entire combined fleet seemed small in front of it.
The mezzanine energy was detonated and turned into a substantial torrent. It looked terrifying, but its power was slightly reduced.
"The impact is coming!"
The bright blue sky like a flame collided with the thick energy barrier, instantly triggering a violent chain reaction with constant ripples.
All the shield nodes are operating at full power and buzzing.
"Beep--Beep--"
The lights were flickering, the ship was shaking violently, and there was silence in the command room. The energy magnetic field attached to the undercurrent of the star stream made all detection equipment ineffective, and everyone's palms All broke into cold sweat.
In the special confinement area, Li Ming looked up and looked at the flashing lights, his heart agitated, "Has it finally begun?"
