This is not mechanical ascension.

"It's outrageous. Civilization can actually be born in the dimensional world..." Robin said with emotion.

Li Ming thought of the deep dimensional worlds. Some dimensional worlds were the same as the environment in the main universe. It seemed normal for intelligent beings to be born and then evolve into civilizations.

Even if the environment is different from the main universe, it is not impossible for civilization to be born.

Robin continued: "Tyrax's civilization was born very early. At that time, there was no interstellar alliance. Every Terraxian was very powerful, and the civilization's territory spanned millions of dimensional worlds..."

When he said that, Robin was also a little frightened. It was hard to imagine what kind of civilization it would be.

Li Ming listened quietly. In fact, Robin didn't know much. He had some general information. As for the origin and function of the Terrax Stone, he hesitated and couldn't explain clearly.

These should require S-level permissions to unlock.

Do you want to find a way to control this skull?

His eyes moved slightly, and he shook his head secretly. Control was only the first step, and he had to be enlightened to make it completely obey him. Too much metal energy was wasted.

And according to the skull, this information is not directly hidden in his mind, but transmitted to his mind using a superdimensional information state.

He didn't really believe it at first, but when he saw the skull that had been upgraded and become stronger for no apparent reason, he became a little convinced.

"If you want to find the Stone of Tyrax, it seems you can only go to the dimensional world..." Li Ming thought to himself.

He currently only has one amount of energy, which is definitely not enough and needs to be reserved.

"I don't know how such a powerful civilization disappeared..." Robin lamented. He also asked the butler this question, but the butler said that he was unable to reply, not because of lack of authority.

"Who knows, it's just external enemies and internal factors." Li Ming said casually, and Robin nodded thoughtfully, then asked:

"When should we set off and wait until Reina is handed over? However, we have to use a special method to get to the dimensional world."

"I know of several organizations that have this approach."

"I have asked Mr. Austin for help. He will directly open the passage to the dimensional world." Li Ming said.

Robin then remembered, "Yes, Mr. Austin is the red-robed Archmage."

After waiting for another seven or eight hours, the people from the Star Abyss Empire arrived at the Twin Peaks node.

Under the auspices of Austin, the two parties met at his residence, which is called the Red Robe Temple. This place looks quite magnificent, with well-proportioned classical buildings standing in the center of the Twin Peaks, running through the center of the earth, connecting the upper and lower floors. .

The temple lobby is quite dreamy, with the blue sky in the morning and the dim light at dusk clearly separated like a zebra crossing.

Countless parallel lines are drawn on the same ceiling, criss-crossing and occupying it, which controls the mimetic ecosystem of the upper and lower levels.

The leader of the Star Abyss Empire is tall and neatly dressed in combat armor. He is an A-level life form. He calls himself Bayim. He does not use harsh words, but is very polite.

But when he saw Reina, the man coming out of the Tanwei, his cheeks couldn't help but twitch, and he looked at Li Ming wordlessly.

He quickly called for people to check, and all kinds of sophisticated medical equipment were put into action. He was obviously afraid that Reina had some hidden disease.

Austin looked on, curious as to whether Qinglong would implant a virus that degraded genes into Reina.

This news is currently only spread among a limited number of people in the Chaos Star Gap, and he does not know whether the Star Abyss Empire has learned about this news.

But the group of people in front of them, after some inspection, could only come up with an answer without any questions.

"Thank you for your cooperation. Grand Duke Gu Ya asked me to say hello to you and His Excellency Qinglong on his behalf."

After confirming that Reiner was fine, Bayim's expression softened a little, and then he said a few digressions, "...The high-level officials of the empire have a very peaceful attitude towards you, without any prejudice."

This sentence is a transaction that cannot be made public. He returned the person to Grand Duke Gu Ya just to prevent the Star Abyss Empire from attacking him.

Regardless of what was sordid in the past, Grand Duke Guya reciprocated the favor and naturally had to respond.

As for the Star Abyss Empire, they didn't care if there was anything fishy in it. What they saw was Reina knocking on the door and then being released by Qinglong. This meant that the power of the Star Abyss Empire was still terrifying.

Naturally, they won't pay too much attention to Qinglong. Maybe some people are really satisfied with his attitude.

Li Ming nodded and had nothing to say to Bayim. After a few simple greetings, the handover ceremony ended.

"I have made arrangements here. You can go to the dimensional world at any time." Austin told Li Ming, and the efficiency was very fast.

"Okay." Li Ming nodded. He needed to wait. He didn't know what he would encounter when he went to the dimensional world this time.

Therefore, we purchased a large number of development medicines, nutritional medicines, life-sustaining medicines and a large number of other various materials.

A-level potions are already relatively expensive. This batch of purchases cost him five to six billion star coins, basically consuming the remaining amount of the black hole network.

It hasn't been sent yet, so Li Ming bid farewell to Austin and prepared to study the dimensional world again.

He just learned about the existence of the "Dimension Center" from the intelligence network inside the Black Hole Palace.

"...The Dimension Center is led by the Interstellar Alliance and jointly developed by the Star Abyss Empire, the Everlasting Federation and multiple star cluster-level civilizations..."

"... pierced through hundreds of dimensional worlds, using this as the base point for exploration, and radiated in all directions. In order to reduce maintenance costs and free exploration labor, the dimensional center is directly open to the outside world. All life forms in the main universe can go to the dimensional center and then explore the dimensional world..."

Li Ming flipped through the smart terminal. There are quite a few dimensional explorers. This profession is obviously much more promising than interstellar time.

But not many people know this channel and can access it. The threshold is destined to be relatively high, and its lower limit is at least C-level life forms.

The last time someone witnessed the appearance of the Domination Holy Elephant was near the dimensional center.

He carefully understood it, but only half a day after Reina's handover, two major events suddenly exploded one after the other.

………

The universe was silent, and the boiling energy in this space gradually subsided. There were scattered warship wreckage everywhere, as well as imperial soldiers covered with frost and swollen and deformed bodies.

The slender warship in the center was full of exploding flames.

There were many dark disc-shaped warships around, scanning the battlefield back and forth and clearing traces.

In the warship, Baim's eyes were wide open, staring at the figure in front of him, with silver hair and silver eyes, surrounded by silver energy.

"Albert... How dare you attack the Imperial Fleet! Are you traitorous?" He gritted his teeth and shouted, his limbs twisted.

Albert shook his head, obviously too lazy to pay attention to him. A silver crystal appeared and pierced Baim's forehead directly.

Then he looked at Reiner, who had a complicated expression on his face. He was soaking in the life-sustaining liquid and was not as angry as Albert imagined.

"Nicholas is so vicious. He intercepted me halfway. He wanted to frame me for Qinglong." Reina said sadly, "Unfortunately, I was seriously injured."

Albert also sighed, "You and I both know that it was Qinglong who killed Gabriel, but he had no way to deal with him. He captured you and then released you. The Grand Duke had no other choice."

"Don't worry, you will be a martyr, and Qinglong will be buried with you." "Buried?" Reina sneered, "In the end, the one buried with me must not be Nicola."

Albert's face sank slightly, and the silver energy glow surged, covering everything.

...

In Li Ming's room, Austin's face was gloomy, and a pile of debris was floating in the starry sky outlined by runes.

Li Ming frowned, "Reina, dead?"

"Yes." Austin kneaded his eyebrows, "What happened thirty minutes ago, Reina's body has been found."

The scene in front of him changed, and a withered stick-like body lay on the silver metal bed. It was easy to see that this was Reina.

Severely injured, he had no power to resist. As long as the firepower was sufficient, the S-class life form could stay out.

"Do you think my teacher did it?" Li Ming looked at Austin.

Austin shook his head, neither denying nor confirming, but said: "I think it doesn't matter who did it. The key is who the Xingyuan Empire thinks did it."

"This matter must be explained. The empire has held an emergency meeting and will send people to investigate."

Li Ming's eyes were cold, and a series of figures passed through his mind, and finally stopped at one figure: "Nicholas."

Austin was surprised, and then tried to ask: "Gabriel, did he really die in the hands of your teacher?"

Li Ming did not answer. Seeing this, Austin did not say much, and was a little helpless:

"Has the Xingyuan Empire been fighting to this extent? In order to deal with your teacher, it is willing to kill an S-class life form."

He shook his head. Killing Reina is equivalent to putting the Xingyuan Empire on the line. The murderer must be found and must be found.

Li Ming estimated that the Xingyuan Empire might not be able to find Nicolas.

But in order to cover up the internal strife scandal, they might deliberately pin the murder on an outsider.

Will they choose Qinglong?

He was not sure, it depends on how threatening Qinglong is in the eyes of Xingyuan Empire.

"This news is still under blockade, but it should not be blocked for too long." Austin reminded, and did not stay for long, and left soon.

People from Xingyuan Empire died not long after leaving him, and he also had a lot of things to deal with.

"Nicholas." Li Ming murmured in a low voice, "Really unscrupulous."

Not long after Austin left, Robin rushed over and said excitedly: "Fuck, big things, big things, the ruling holy elephant really appeared, this time it's not a rumor, someone really took a picture, clearly..."

He took the virtual terminal and played it to Li Ming eagerly.

On the screen, a black gap appeared in the dark purple sky, and a white and gold mechanical giant elephant roared, causing space vibration.

It was the rumored ruling holy elephant.

Li Ming was not surprised, because before Austin came to tell him about Reiner's death, he was also paying attention to this news.

Robin flipped down, his expression was very excited, "Someone processed and magnified the details, and found the Infinite Hammer on its head."

He opened a picture, a giant hammer, placed on the head of the mechanical giant elephant, the hammer head was rough, like the dark stars, it was the Infinite Hammer.

"It's a big news, this news is really a big news, where there is an interstellar network, everyone is discussing this news, and there are even people tracking the traces of the Dominant Holy Elephant." Robin spoke quickly, his face flushed:

"Is the secret of the Forging Hammer God Craftsman disappearing for more than 3,000 years really going to be revealed..."

He talked for a long time, and then realized that Li Ming's face was not very good, and he hesitated and said: "What's wrong, something happened?"

Li Ming shook his head and was about to speak when his heart moved slightly. He raised the smart terminal and saw that it was Blackbeard's communication link.

Robin saw this and said wisely: "Then I'll leave first."

After Robin left, Li Ming opened his twisted stance, changed his appearance, and Qinglong came online.

After answering, the screen popped up. Blackbeard was stroking his beard as usual. He didn't speak for the first time. Instead, he looked at Qinglong's expression and grinned:

"Tsk, Your Excellency Qinglong is so calm, even when a black pot is thrown at you, his face doesn't change."

Li Ming shook his head lightly and did not continue. Instead, he asked: "Is the Holy Elephant of Control true or false?"

Blackbeard was surprised and couldn't help but said: "Your Excellency, you don't care about Reina's death?"

His face was expressionless: "I didn't kill him, why should I care."

"Nicholas has made it clear that he wants to plant a trap on you." Blackbeard reminded.

"I know that the Xingyuan Empire needs an explanation, as long as they don't target me." Li Ming was very calm.

"Oh? Do you have any idea?" Blackbeard was curious.

"It's very simple. If the price paid is high enough, others will naturally be chosen." Li Mingyan said concisely: "Kill a few more people, and the Star Abyss Empire should change its target."

Blackbeard's eyelids twitched, and he understood what Qinglong meant. A behemoth like the Star Abyss Empire has long been planning its actions not based on joy, anger, and sorrow, but on benefits and costs.

If the costs are greater than the benefits, they will naturally look for other methods.

Qinglong wants to show enough muscles to force the Star Abyss Empire to find a scapegoat.

"There's no need for such a big reaction." Blackbeard said hurriedly. This kind of expansion is not in their interests. If Qinglong accidentally confronts one of his own, it will cause trouble.

I don’t know if Qinglong forced them to help, or if he was really prepared to do so.

"We have a way." He stopped being impatient and added: "I originally thought that the next plan for the Corona Borealis Ring would have to wait for three to five years, but I didn't expect Nicholas to come up with such a plan. It was a stupid move and someone killed Reina.”

"We have evidence here and will release it at the right time. When the time comes, someone will be crushed to pieces."

Do they have evidence for this?

Li Ming was surprised and frowned: "When will it happen? It won't affect me."

"Don't worry, it will definitely happen. Once there are enough people involved and the location is large enough, they will be released." After Blackbeard said this, he warned uneasily:

"Your Excellency, please do not act rashly, otherwise it may cause a chain reaction."

"I know." Li Ming looked expressionless, staring at Blackbeard, and suddenly said: "Nicola sent people to kill Reina. Couldn't this move be instigated by your people?"

"How is it possible?" Blackbeard's heart skipped a beat and he hurriedly denied: "The risk is too high and it will be easily detected. We prefer to be safe."

I stayed up all night yesterday, but my heart was broken as a result
