This is not mechanical ascension.

The waiting time was much shorter than Blackbeard imagined. After only ten minutes, a message popped up in the background of the Black Hole Network. The sender had only a code name.

He took a closer look, his expression paused, and a strand of his beard was suddenly pulled out. His eyes flickered, "... the core ruins have been hollowed out, the ground is dug three feet, and even the walls are gone..."

Although Qinglong was only a certain suspicion, Blackbeard was almost certain that the things had indeed fallen into Qinglong's hands.

"What a good method..." Blackbeard sighed.

In fact, Qinglong could not be perfect. Whether it was Gabriel's death or the ownership of the sublimation source crystal, he would be one of the suspects.

But he was only a suspect because his methods were strong enough and he had appeared at the scene, but Reina was more suspicious.

Because Qinglong could not find a motive, and Reina's motive was Grand Duke Guya.

Qinglong's origin was mysterious, and no one knew where he would go after this matter was over.

Grand Duke Thornblood could not find him, but Gabriel's death could not be let go.

According to his understanding of the Xingyuan Empire, Gabriel's death will inevitably be suppressed, but the resentment in the heart of the Blood-piercing Grand Duke cannot be suppressed.

Not only did he get nothing, but he also lost his son and a precious space-based psychic.

He will definitely not give up. Even if it is to stop the loss, he will definitely put Gabriel's death on Reina and let Grand Duke Gu Ya bear his losses.

The plan is different, but the final result is similar.

"In this case, you can go see him." Blackbeard put away the smart terminal and disappeared silently.

While he was waiting for the news, the fleet gathered at the outermost edge to watch the excitement had received a joint warning from the Arbiter and the United Fleet, asking them to retreat as soon as possible, otherwise they would be regarded as enemies and attacked indiscriminately.

"Fuck, I came here with great enthusiasm, but in the end, I heard nothing. I bought millions of energy blocks when I entered the Red River Star Stream this time. It's a big loss."

"It's good to be able to watch the excitement. If those big guys get really angry, we will all be involved and die without a burial place."

"Haha... You just know how to watch the excitement. I took the opportunity to dismantle the engine on the wreckage of the battleship. There are still many parts. I must have enough energy money..."

"This incident is big enough. There will be something to talk about in the next period of time. Tsk tsk... Casting star mechanics are rarer than S-level life forms..."

Even though there was dissatisfaction, no one dared to stay and gradually dispersed.

In the central area, Asmara and others have arrived in a new battleship.

When they arrived in the conference room, no one spoke for five or six minutes, and the atmosphere was dull.

Commanders came here one after another. Some looked seriously injured, covered with medical gel, and found a corner to sit down.

After another five or six minutes, almost everyone had arrived. Those who were not found were probably dead.

"I will take full responsibility for this matter, and it has nothing to do with you." Asmara spoke up and looked around.

Many of the fleet commanders present were not from Itlan, and they were moved when they heard this.

This time the mess is not small. I don't know if this ambitious princess will have a chance to be active in the interstellar.

The commanders of Itlan were slightly relieved. No matter what, it is best if the superiors are willing to take the blame.

Prince Baijan then said: "The commander-in-chief and I will share the responsibility."

Everyone seemed surprised. Baijan was also helpless. The truth of Gabriel's death had turned him and Asmara into a community of interests.

He was even a little angry now. Why did Ford inform him in the first place?

"Now, all we need to do is to gather the fleet to count the damage, find the wounded, and then leave here..." Asmara's delicate face was full of fatigue, but she still forced herself to give the last order, and then waved her hand weakly.

Many commanders looked at each other, and then left one after another with the sound of tables and chairs colliding.

Only Asmara, Prince Baijan, Ford in the corner, and Wu Yanqing who was still imprisoned were left in the room.

After a while, the door of the room opened and Albert came. Everyone stood up subconsciously, including Old Wu, who was not going to die.

"Sir Reina?" Asmara asked involuntarily.

"He has returned to the Judge Fleet and kept stating that Gabriel was not killed by him." Albert sat down with a frown and said helplessly: "This matter is no longer something that can be solved by a simple battle. I can only let him leave."

"What do you think about the core ruins and Gabriel?"

He glanced at Wu Yanqing. This guy was still a prisoner, but even if Asmara didn't say anything, he didn't bother to care.

Asmara looked subtle, but responded quickly: "I have a few ideas. Regarding the core ruins, it is not ruled out that someone has entered in these years. There are many doubts about our entry in the first place."

"However, I have been thinking about the real purpose of Qinglong's participation in this matter."

She sorted out her thoughts, "Given his means and strength, the only attraction to him in the core ruins is the sublimation source crystal."

"He may want to improve his development potential. After all, he is only a B-level life form, and he doesn't seem to want to undergo mechanical transformation. His development potential is probably shockingly low."

"But what I can't figure out is that if he wants to use the sublimation source crystal, he can just say hello to both of us. With his status as a star-casting mechanic, any grand duke would be willing to give him this face, and there is no need to go to great lengths."

When Albert heard this, he couldn't help but nod. After thinking about it carefully, it was true that such sublimated source crystals would not have much effect on the individual and could only be used once.

More is the long-term impact on the entire race.

"And Qinglong's purpose..." He pondered, and heard Asmara continue, "As for Gabriel's death, actually for us, whether it was done by Qinglong or Reiner, there is no difference between the two. "

"I still suspect that the two of them were acting, and the undercurrent came at just the right time."

"Actually, whether it's Qinglong or Reina, it can only be Reina in the end."

After Asmara finished speaking, Albert couldn't help but nodded, slightly helpless: "Yes."

He could understand that since both of them were highly suspicious and suspected of cooperating, the Grand Duke would definitely choose the person who maximized his interests as the murderer.

What are the benefits of choosing Qinglong? Post a wanted notice and then search for it all over the universe?

"The Grand Duke will probably be very angry when he learns about this. I don't know how much shock this green dragon will cause when he jumps out of thin air." He stood up again with a wry smile: "The on-site information should be almost sorted out, and I should go and give it. The Grand Duke reported."

"It was my dereliction of duty." Asmara lowered her head and said.

Albert shook his head, seeing Asmara's worry, and couldn't help but said: "Don't worry, Reina...Qinglong, their strength and methods are beyond your ability to deal with, it's a crime other than war."

Asmara still lowered her head, but Albert had left.

In the silent conference room, the four people had different expressions. No one looked at the other, and they exhaled slowly at the same time.

………

In the dilapidated small spaceship, everyone gathered together. Li Ming still had not disarmed the mecha, and the narrow cabin space already seemed a bit crowded.

Outside the porthole, the interstellar background seemed motionless. Under the propulsion flight, it was almost imperceptible that the spacecraft was moving.

Sandro swallowed and spit, still in shock. Although he had dominated the land of stars before, he had never been exposed to a battlefield of this level.

It was frightening and exciting at the same time. Especially when the audience didn't send them off at the end, they almost cried out.

And all of this comes from Qinglong.

"Thank you for your help." Li Ming was the first to speak, thinking in his mind that each of these guys is very good, even Sandro can be used as cannon fodder.

"From now on, we have to share weal and woe."

He looked at a few people and realized that he was just about to form the Mechanical Royal Court. There was a shortage of manpower in the early stages, so he couldn't do everything by himself.

Since these guys dare to pay the chips, he might as well use them.

After the words fell, everyone had different eyes, but they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Theo's expression was complicated. He had weighed the situation before taking action. If it was true as Ulrich said, after winning the bet, Qinglong might be able to provide him with more help than Grand Duke Guya.

The one with the most psychological changes was Konite, who even felt like he was in a dream at this moment.

During this period, the relationship between him and Qinglong has changed too much, but the interstellar is like this. Except for some hatred, it can be said that there are no eternal enemies.

"I don't know, Mr. Monro?" The only person Li Ming asked was Monro. This guy was the strongest.

Helping him doesn't necessarily mean becoming a subordinate.

"I haven't completely repaired it yet." Monroe smiled and Li Ming nodded, saying nothing.

The slightly silent atmosphere finally became lively. Looking at the increasingly empty starry sky, Li Ming's heart also surged.

Finally, the battleship swayed slightly, and everyone's hearts trembled. I don't know when, the dark night appeared in the corner of the cabin.

The conversation gradually subsided, and everyone looked at the legendary assassin, but he stared at the luxurious mecha with strange eyes.

"Is it safe?" Li Ming asked.

"Well, neither Reiner nor Albert came after me." An Ye nodded, but couldn't help but said: "You said before that the repair would take two or three months, were you lying to me?"

Until now, he can't believe it. The repair was too simple, but he didn't feel anything unusual during the battle.

The mecha on Li Ming disappeared silently, revealing his body with a slightly pale face. Wearing this thing was really draining his energy.

"I'm not lying to you, wasn't it an accident? I had to spend some extra money." Li Ming also looked helpless and pained: "That laser shot was consumed..."

Halfway through, he paused again and just kept sighing.

Looking at An Ye, he couldn't help but feel happy, and the dissatisfaction in his heart also disappeared.

He originally thought that Qinglong told him that the repair would take so long, so he deliberately kept him and forced him to be a helper.

Naturally, he was dissatisfied, but after Qinglong said this, he thought again, and it was indeed true. The scene looked shocking, but it must not be that simple.

I don’t know how much extra it will cost.

"However, your methods are really powerful." An Ye sat down casually, stroking the Starkiller in his hand, his posture was as gentle as stroking his lover.

He praised: "It is absolutely perfect, and there is no trace of repair."

Li Ming's face looked strange. Poor An Ye didn't know yet that his gun had turned into my shape.

Dispersing the weird thoughts in his mind, he smiled and said, "As long as you are satisfied."

"When word gets out about what's going on here, I'll use a few more favors, and the A-level gene seeds you want will be absolutely fine." An Ye also assured wisely that he believed no one would refuse to help a star-casting mechanic.

Li Ming nodded, thinking about something in his mind.

After this incident, Xingyuan Empire will definitely target him. He must not stay nearby and must go to Chaos Star Gap.

But he is unfamiliar with the place, and this time he has caused such a big incident. Apart from a mecha, he has not yet reached the strength level expected by the outside world.

"Well... I was just about to tell you about this. I have a troublesome matter to deal with temporarily, and I may not be able to go to Chaos Star Gap for the time being." Li Ming said, and An Ye was surprised: "Can't go?"

"But I will let someone I trust go with me."

"Trusted person?" An Ye raised his eyebrows, and then heard Qinglong say: "Li Ming."

"It's him, I don't care, you just trust him, then I will give him the A-level gene seed, and our deal will be completed." When mentioning this name, An Ye sighed a few times, "Is he really a 46-level development potential?"

When he was lurking in the dark just now, he captured several conversations, and learned this information, and was secretly shocked.

"How much... How much?" The few people who were originally listening to the conversation between the two people were stunned.

Ulrich's throat rolled, and his tone was difficult: "Level 46?"

Is this development potential real?

"It is indeed a little higher." Li Ming said lightly, and everyone had nothing to say. This is more than a little higher.

Comparison is frustrating, and they are envious of Li Ming. His development potential is so amazing, and his teacher is so powerful. He has a bright future.

An Ye also sighed, and as he was talking, they were approaching the Coyle, which was not far from the battlefield.

The dilapidated spaceship was docked on the deck, and the remaining Torch Organization members were waiting here. They came up and reported: "Mr. Qinglong, someone is looking for you."

"Someone... looking for me?" Li Ming was slightly stunned, "On the ship?"

"Yes, in the reception room."

"When did you come?" Li Ming frowned and asked.

The other party responded quickly: "About five minutes ago, he suddenly appeared on the deck."

"And, for some reason, the surveillance camera seems to be ineffective against him."

"Oh?" Everyone looked strange, not worried, but curious. After all, with two great gods here, who else could cause trouble?

"I'll go and see." Li Ming thought about it, and then followed this person to the reception room quickly. As for the others, they dispersed.

He walked through the corridor and stopped in front of the reception room. He waved his hand to let the Torch members leave before opening the door.

As soon as he stepped into it, he saw a figure with his hands behind his back and his back facing him. He was slightly hunched over, and seemed to have noticed something, so he turned around.

What attracted Li Ming's attention the most was the big beard on his cheek. He smiled slightly and said, "Sir Qinglong, are you interested in dividing the Xingyuan Empire?"
