Chapter 324 Anger and Shadow

The figures on the screen were shaking, mixed with various noisy sounds, and Nicholas watched with a gloomy expression.

"With such a huge battle, could it be that some star-casting mechanic has arrived?"

"Two big mechanics from the Mechanics Association came out to greet them. They are definitely not ordinary people..."

"Who is this guy? He seems to be an interstellar human?"

The screen freezes, locks on one of the figures and then zooms in.

"Li Ming..." He spit out two words.

"Yes, it's him." Behind him, Albert nodded, "In the past month or so, we have discovered some traces one after another. The Twin Peaks node is one of the three most likely hubs for them to go. ”

“Preliminary news came as early as a day ago, but I’m not sure whether it is these people.”

"His identity has been determined so far, and there is an 80% chance that he is not a disguise. The people around him have also been found. He lives in Yao Xing Hotel and seems to be welcomed by Austin."

After Qinglong left, they never gave up searching, and Albert was one of the main people responsible.

Although the speed is a bit behind, I can always find some clues intermittently.

Even without this video, their whereabouts can be determined in up to two days. As long as they do not completely break away from the interstellar society, they cannot really disappear.

"He acted openly and without any fear. He really didn't take us seriously at all." Nicholas' face was cold.

The quarrel between him and Satuguya's group was not over yet, and the fight between his men was in full swing, but he did not forget Qinglong.

In the incident of the core ruins of the Ascendant, Qinglong seemed to get nothing after all the hard work.

But he didn't believe that the other party had been dormant for so long just to show his face at the last moment.

Albert hesitated to speak, very helpless, "The Empire does not want Qinglong. The people in the Chaos Star Gap are lawless, so naturally they cannot be afraid of him."

Nicholas also understood and just snorted, while Albert quickly said: "In addition, Qinglong's certification information can be found on the website of the Machinists Association - Casting Star Mechanic."
< br>

"So fast?" Nicholas' face became more and more ugly, "Not even reviewed?"

Albert didn't speak, and said with a wry smile: "The whereabouts of the master forging hammer - Hull is unknown. The remaining two masters are at odds with each other and seem to be splitting. The reputation of the Machinists Association has gradually declined in recent years, and each They all want to win over the star-casting mechanics.”

Nicholas twitched his cheek and said coldly: "Have you found any traces of Qinglong?"

"Not yet." Albert looked even more helpless, "Qinglong seems to have disappeared without a trace, leaving Li Ming to handle various matters on his behalf."

"Without a trace?" Nicholas looked gloomy.

Albert added: "They obtained the A-level gene seeds from Yeyue Biological Company."

"A-level gene seed?" Nicholas frowned, "Qinglong wants to fuse?"

Albert hesitated: "Not sure, it should be Qinglong. According to our information, Li Ming's development progress was only at 60% more than a month ago."

"It doesn't matter who it is, it's not important." Nicholas was impatient. What made Qinglong fearful was not his own strength.

Even becoming an A-level life form won't change anything.

"Also, Li Ming joined the Black Hole Hall." Albert added.

"It's only been one day, and they moved really fast." Nicholas sneered: "The Black Hole Palace is also a bunch of rabble, don't worry about it."

Albert pondered: "Then, almost at the same time, someone posted a reward in the Black Hole Palace, and he was a junior member."

Nicholas looked over, and Albert quickly mapped out a picture of a dark-looking stone.

"This is..." Nicholas's pupils suddenly shrank, "The Stone of Terrax!"

"Are you sure it's Li Ming?" he asked urgently,

"We can't be sure." Albert was helpless. "Although there is a 70% probability, we don't have the background information of the Black Hole Palace, so it's just speculation."

Nicholas' face was dark and uncertain, and Albert hesitated: "Is this thing very important?"

Nicholas glanced at him and said solemnly: "The value itself is not bad, but it reveals a lot of things."

"Qinglong, what do you want to do..."

Albert thought, "He seems to want to form a force."

"Form a force?" Nicholas was even more stunned, and then he was so angry that he sneered again and again, "What does he take me for? What does he take for the Star Abyss Empire? Does he think that what happened in the Red River Star Stream will be revealed like this? Passed? ”

"You still dare to build a force in the chaotic star gap?"

The more he talked, the angrier he became. Nicholas roared angrily: "Speaking of Potian, he is just a star-casting mechanic!"

Albert understood that Nicholas was not only because of the Green Dragon incident, but also because of the series of chain reactions caused by the Red River Star Stream incident.

The Bloody Archduke lost his son and lost his army, but in the end he gained nothing. This had long been a good story among the upper echelons of the empire, especially the traditional royal family, who ridiculed him.

And he had no accurate evidence to prove that it was Reiner who killed Gabriel, so he and Tsatogua were always at odds.

The Star Abyss Empire is a huge and bloated monster.

The inherent impression of normal people is that if anyone messes with the Xingyuan Empire, everyone in the Xingyuan Empire will work together to kill this person.

But in fact, it looks different, such as this time——

The Royal Family: Blood-piercing is such a waste, so he was fooled around like this? Whoever caused the problem should fill it himself. I will not help someone who betrayed the royal family!

House of Commons: Yes, yes, yes.

More than a month has passed since the incident, and the blood-stained Grand Duke still has not redeemed himself, so his mentality is naturally urgent.

Albert hurriedly added: "Intelligence analysts estimate that Qinglong's actions seem to be to use Li Ming as a target. Forming a force or doing business is just a cover..."

"Using Li Ming as bait?" Nicholas reacted, "He wants to lure me into action?"

"Uh..." Albert pondered and said awkwardly: "The intelligence room analyzed that there should be other plans, because we actually don't have the ability to capture Qinglong."

How could Qinglong seduce someone who couldn't do it?

Nicholas's face turned dark and he kneaded his brows. There were too many things to do, and he had no time to think carefully one by one. He focused more on reading the analysis reports presented by his subordinates.

"Unless you can get the Empire to strike with thunder."

Albert said bravely.

Nikolay's face turned cold. He wanted Class X to take action and capture Qinglong, but the Royal Council had rejected his request more than once.

Although he kept yelling about what was happening to the empire, he also knew that he could not represent the empire at all.

Qinglong actually did not harm any interests of the empire, but was just suspected of harming his interests.

In this situation, it is even more impossible for the empire's top officials to send people there. Everyone knows where the Chaos Star Gap is. Li Ming was clearly a bait and sent people there. If someone from the Yongyao Federation was ambushing them, wouldn't it be a huge loss?

"So, just because of a bait, we have no choice but to do anything?" Nicholas was very dissatisfied: "What is the use of the people in the intelligence analysis room besides over-analyzing?"

"The main reason is that Qinglong is too mysterious and his information is completely blank." Albert was also helpless:

"If you are a star-casting mechanic with clear growth data, you can completely predict where the opponent's upper limit is."

"The mechanics at the Imperial Academy of Sciences still haven't figured out how Qinglong repaired the Starkiller."

"The biggest possibility is to reverse time on a small scale. If Qinglong has this ability..."

Nicholas took a deep breath. Ever since Qinglong appeared, the more he analyzed it, the more frightening it became. He was now a little less confident.

"Okay, the Imperial Academy of Sciences is just a bunch of freeloaders. Those old guys should have given way long ago." Nicholas shook his head and said angrily:

"And the people in the intelligence analysis room set the upper limit of the enemy too high because they couldn't estimate it? Why didn't they say that Qinglong was already invincible in the universe?"

Albert didn't say anything, and the intelligence analysis room didn't make unfounded speculations. It basically made a comprehensive analysis based on the existing intelligence.

"Forget it, Albert, go to the Chaos Star Gap." Nicholas suddenly said.

"Hmm...huh?" Albert nodded subconsciously. Suddenly he was stunned, "Should I go?"

"Not bad." Nicholas was a little angry when he saw Albert's evasive gaze, but had to suppress it, and said in a deep voice: "I don't mean that you have to catch Li Ming, act according to the opportunity."

"The Chaotic Star Gap is quite far away. Since I think Qinglong is fishing, if something happens, I'm afraid I won't be able to get there right away and fall behind others."

Nicholas's statement was reasonable. Albert was reluctant, but he could only nod: "I understand."

When Albert left the room, Nicholas's face suddenly darkened. He vaguely felt that the core ruins were inseparable from Gabriel's death and Qinglong.

I really want to give it a try and catch the person at any cost, but I am afraid that I will fall into Tsathogya's plan and be in a dilemma.

"I have to think of a way to get the empire to help me."

………

Somewhere in the starry sky, the dead starry sky is like a black curtain, dotted with twinkling stars. There is a huge nest suspended here that looks like it is made of black branches.

Each branch is as thick as a mountain range, stacked together in a chaotic and orderly manner. From a distance, it looks like a huge womb.

In the core hall, pale light flickered, coming from the swaying gray-white flames on the black lampposts.

A group of figures draped in black gauze stood here, varying in height, short, fat and thin. There were no seats, they were just gathered together.

"Sisters, the latest news is that the human with level 46 development potential has reappeared." A ethereal voice suddenly sounded, echoing in the empty hall.

After a brief silence, there was a heated discussion, "Did he appear again? The star-casting mechanic didn't hide him."

"Holy Mother, where is he?" A figure in black gauze couldn't help but ask with a soft voice.

The Virgin wears a black crown on her head, with six white palms stacked on her abdomen, and her voice is still light:

"Chaotic Star Gap, the hub of Twin Peaks, a sister discovered his traces. She wanted to obtain the seeds, but was discovered and has been executed by Austin."

"He has left now, but since he has appeared in our field of vision, we will not let him leave again." The Holy Mother said leisurely.

"Forty-six levels of development potential. Under the age of thirty, we have been waiting for a thousand years. As long as his seeds are combined with the eggs of the black goat, the offspring born will have development potential of level 50." The Virgin said slowly, The voice gradually became louder:

"The Star of Eternal Silence, the empire's most mysterious weapon, the hope of control, is just around the corner."

"Forty-three hundred years ago, Adam broke his promise, and the previous Madonna stole the Star of Eternity, which caused the empire to tremble and fight endlessly. Adam launched an encirclement and suppression campaign, which brought us almost to destruction. But after waiting for so many years, the opportunity finally came."


"Blessed Mother!" the members of Black Veil shouted in unison.

"However, that Azure Dragon should not be underestimated. With our current strength, we can only outsmart him." Our Lady added, "We must get ahead of the conservatives. According to our information, his orientation is still the opposite sex."
< br>

"So I'm going to..."

"I'll go." In the black gauze crowd, someone suddenly spoke. He had a graceful figure and looked like a humanoid life form. In the hazy moment, through the black gauze, one could vaguely see the pair of amber eyes.

"Desire, you took action yourself?" Our Lady was surprised: "I was going to plan a show."

The woman's voice was lazy: "This matter needs to be foolproof. Besides, I like such a young and outstanding boy."

"This is a bit risky." Our Lady pondered.

Desire responded: "He's just a star-casting mechanic. Even if he is discovered, I won't have a problem escaping. As long as I see his true body, he can't even put on a mecha."

The Virgin recalled various information, nodded and said: "In that case, the best thing is, I will activate the brood and send you alone."

………

"Hiss——"

In the spaceship room, Li Ming opened his eyes and sighed helplessly. The elemental energy surging on the surface of his skin gradually became silent.

Even though he had been mentally prepared for it, Li Ming was still shocked by the outrageous development rate.

He had been away from the Twin Hubs for thirteen days. During this process, he had been developing gene seeds almost every moment.

Gravity adjustment can be increased to more than 300 times to assist development, but the overall development progress has still not reached 1%.

"This is too slow. I'm afraid it will take nearly 20 days to reach 1%."

"At this rate, after experiencing three more attenuations, it will probably take ten or even more than ten years to develop to 100%. This is still without sleep." Li Ming made a slight assessment and secretly sighed.

The negative emotions caused by the slowdown in the past were nothing this time.

"It will take ten years to develop 100%..." Li Ming muttered. If Ulrich and others heard it, they would be stunned.

Not to mention ten years, it is amazing enough to become an S-class life form within a hundred years.

"However, after controlling the sublimation source crystal, the development blessing will be doubled. If we upgrade a few more S-level gene sources, it should be faster."

"You don't need the Stone of Terrax to upgrade the genetic essence, but the S-level genetic essence can only be extracted from S-level life forms, and the difficulty is not low."

Li Ming thought about it, then said helplessly: "I'm still not used to this time scale of more than ten years."

You have to eat in one bite and plan step by step. Nothing is accomplished overnight.
