This is not mechanical ascension.

"Why are there only these two people who attacked? Are they from the same camp?" Zhang Huaiyuan was still reacting when Li Ming seamlessly entered the topic.

Chen Jinglong looked at him deeply and shook his head, saying, "Obviously not. The people we caught along the way acted in a completely different style from these two, like the people of the torch."

"But these two...heavy armor, sniper rifles, and they attacked without hesitation..."

Chen Jinglong didn't finish his words.

At the same time, the special forces members in plain clothes who were hiding in various places came from all directions and began to clean up the scene, pull up shielding wires, and fence off the bodies.

Not long after, a figure jumped down from a high place, holding a half-dead person in his hand, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and the sniper rifle behind him was very eye-catching.

"Teacher, the person has been caught." He threw the person in his hand to the field staff, put on the gene suppressor, and tested whether he was carrying suicide poison.

"This kind of heavy armor and sniper rifle are not something that ordinary people can get." Li Ming glanced at it and soon had a few names.

Xingchuang Company, Sera Civilization

Needless to say, Xingchuang Company is very powerful in the Blue Star.

And the Sera Civilization has long regarded him as a thorn in their side.

Yuko died, and they suffered a huge loss. They wanted to kill him, and they had enough motivation.

"Jingnan Star has an air-space shield after all, and there is also the [Prohibition of Light and Heavy Weapons Ordinance]. It is very difficult to smuggle such heavy weapons." Chen Jinglong squatted down and checked the armor model of the attacker.

"We should be able to find clues." Chen Jinglong stood up. In the interstellar society, everything will leave traces. The bigger the movement, the bigger the traces left.

Thinking of this, his brows frowned slightly. In addition to Fu Zongchen being killed...

"Li Ming?" The man brought Li Ming back to his senses while he was thinking, and introduced himself as Yuan Hong.

"I didn't expect my junior brother to be so observant." Yuan Hong's eyes were strange.

Along the way, he listened to Li Ming's instructions to catch people. At first, he was still suspicious, but later he was numb. He had never been so relaxed.

"I worked as a city guard for a while and learned some skills." Li Ming explained modestly.

It was almost dusk when he returned to the laboratory.

He reminded Chen Jinglong again and again not to forget to send his ten mother ores. Seeing that his face turned black, he reluctantly got off the car.

Luo Chuan was relieved to see that he was back intact. He walked and reminded him:

"If the dean asks you to do such an adventurous thing again in the future, remember to refuse. Don't be embarrassed. Nothing is more important than your life."

Seeing that Luo Chuan was suspected of evolving in the direction of a mother, Li Ming made assurances again and again.

After watching Luo Chuan leave, Li Ming did not return to his room, but knocked on Chen Yan's door.

The room was decorated very warmly, pink and tender, with various virtual pictures and paper people with eight abdominal muscles, which was very consistent with her personality.

Chen Yan put her delicate fingers on her lips, signaling Li Ming not to speak.

Li Ming now always turns on [Intelligent Assistance]. When he walked in, he found that there were at least two very hidden monitoring devices.

"Going to bed so early?" Li Ming followed suit and started acting.

Chen Yan also cooperated: "Not yet, watch two episodes of "The Lone Gun" before going to bed."

"Come to my room, I'll show you a big treasure." Li Ming pulled Chen Yan, pushing and shoving.

Chen Yan gritted her teeth secretly.

When they arrived at Li Ming's room, Chen Yan said coldly: "You don't have to act so much, there are only listening devices in my room, not surveillance."

"Who put it there, Lao Luo?" Li Ming asked.

"It should be him."

"He doubted your identity?" Li Ming frowned slightly.

"I don't know, when I first came here, I checked the whole room, and there was no surveillance equipment. It should be put in a few days after I left your room." Chen Yan shook her head:

"Rather than saying he doubted my identity, it's more like confirming whether I am bad for you."

When she first noticed this, Yan was also angry.

That Luochuan, really thought Li Ming was a young man who had never seen the world? He was afraid that he would deceive him.

Li Ming nodded thoughtfully, then his expression became serious and he shouted: "How did you report to Torch? I almost died in Torch's hands today, do you know!"

Chen Yan was stunned, no, brother, you changed your face too quickly.

However, after hearing Li Ming's words, her face changed slightly, "Torch can't kill you, they haven't issued relevant cooperation orders to me yet."

Li Ming's expression was gloomy: "What's impossible? Heavy armor, long-range sniper rifles, and more than a dozen lurking personnel. This drama is too much."

"Heavy armor? Long-range sniper rifle?" Chen Yan was even more surprised: "Why did Torch make such a big fuss."

"I was going to ask you, what did you say to Torch?" Li Ming's eyes were cold.

Me? Chen Yan paused, "Do you suspect that I am interfering?"

She was extremely angry. It was okay to be controlled by Torch, but after lurking here, she was controlled by Li Ming again.

Now she is in a dilemma, like walking on a tightrope without shoes on, extremely uncomfortable.

Her face was tense and she said bluntly: "Since you didn't trust me from the beginning to the end, why did you spare my life at that time? You might as well kill me."

"I was just about to correct this mistake." Li Ming had already pulled out a dagger from somewhere.

"Wait, wait..." Chen Yan waved her hands hurriedly, her temper was smoothed, and she was no longer angry, and she retreated repeatedly: "I can explain, give me time, I can find out what's going on!"

"Are you sure?" Li Ming narrowed his eyes.

"Five days, give me five days!" Chen Yan promised immediately.

Li Ming suddenly smiled, and the dagger in his hand disappeared, with a bright smile: "Oh, I was just kidding, you look scared."

Chen Yan's throat rolled and her face turned pale. She just wanted to leave here now.

He smiled in agreement and left in a hurry.

As for being so scared?

Li Ming shook his head. Of course, he was not simply trying to scare Chen Yan, but he also wanted to use the torch's hand to see if he could find out who the other group of people were.

"After all, I am also your key investment target. I was almost shorted, so I have to check it out no matter what." He muttered, opening the box on the ground, which contained the gadgets he bought today, and controlled them one by one.

The most important thing is the [Soul Mask].

[Soul Mask--D Grade (Damaged): Made of hafnium alloy as the main material and combined with quantum matrix.

Control conditions: six thousand points of metal energy

Control effect: Hidden blessing--100%

Control ability - Psychic shielding: Distort one's own image in the field of vision of D-class lifeforms and below and in conventional monitoring equipment. 】

After taking control, he tried it and filmed himself with a smart device. As expected, the whole thing was distorted, but it didn't completely disappear, like a mist.

Immediately afterwards, he upgraded it and invested 60,000 points to upgrade it to C level. The severely faded half-face armor turned into light gold again, with stripes and ravines forming a special pattern.

The hidden blessing becomes 150%. Li Ming has never tried this blessing effect. I'm afraid it needs to be superimposed to a very high number before there is any change.

The ability can shield C-class life forms and advanced monitoring equipment.

He experimented again and found that the original fog image had turned into something like a distorted transparent body, which was hard to see unless you looked carefully.

Li Ming was very satisfied. What he would do next would be more hidden, but there was still about 40,000 metal energy left, which made him grit his teeth, it was too fast.

I have to find a way to do more.

…

Dean Chen Jinglong was very efficient. Early the next morning, the things were delivered and installed in a large storage facility.

"The teacher said that things must be delivered to you." Yuan Hong smiled brightly. He wore gold-rimmed glasses, suits and leather shoes, and looked more like a beast than yesterday.

"Thank you dean for me. Go back and tell the dean that if you have such good things in the future, remember to come to me." Li Ming joked.

Yuan Hong came and went in a hurry, put down his things and left, as if there was something else.

Li Ming rubbed his hands and couldn't wait to move into the room. As the condensed mist spread, the silver storage box opened, and the mechanical arm lifted the metal cabinet up, with ten pieces of ore of different sizes neatly placed on it.

There are all kinds of colors, placed in different liquid tanks, and most of them contain strange powers.

Li Ming couldn't stop rubbing his hands. After using the mother ore to strengthen the control object, it is possible to obtain supernatural-like abilities, which is quite powerful.

Most of the commonly used control objects have been enhanced by the mother ore, but there are still a few left.

There are also notes on the storage equipment with the name of the mother ore written on them. After a little search on the star network, you can find its characteristics.

"The dean is very generous. If you say ten, give me ten." Li Ming grinned and was in a good mood. He didn't expect that the dean also had so many mother lodes.

He absorbs them one by one, and the special energy extracted from these mother ores should be enough for him to use for a long time.

"Cut these mother minerals into two pieces. Will two special energies be extracted?" He thought aimlessly.

The birth of the mother ore requires an extremely accidental opportunity. Unless it is extremely large, it will basically not be cut. Some of its internal characteristics can easily be damaged by cutting.

Soon, the last piece was absorbed by him, and a total of ten special energies were neatly displayed on the control bar.

Li Ming just felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart when he found a prompt popping up on the control page——

[Whether to consume ten special energy to reduce the cooling time of switching control objects. 】

Um?

Li Ming was stunned for a moment, then suddenly became energetic.

To reduce the cooldown time for switching control objects, special energy is actually required?

Li Ming was surprised. This was really unintentional. If it hadn't been for this unexpected situation, he didn't know how long it would have taken him to accumulate ten special energies.

Not because of the difficulty, but because it will probably be consumed after he gets it, so it is difficult to accumulate it all the time.

"I won't give you any reminder." Li Ming shook his head and naturally chose consumption to reduce the cooling time for switching control objects.

On one side of the control bar, the neatly arranged special energies disappeared one after another.

The information that came from nowhere flowed in his heart, "The waiting time was originally two hours, but now it only takes one hour."

"It was directly reduced by half."

Li Ming was quite excited, but after thinking about it, his face fell again, "If you control the upgraded urine properties, you won't need to consume 100 pieces of mother ore next time."

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was like this. This time he cut it in half, and next time it would probably be cut in half, too. Instead of one hour, it would become half an hour.

If you keep cutting in half, it will consume more and more in the end and reduce the time less and less.

"Reducing it to a few minutes is probably enough. A battle can be switched several times." Li Ming thought about the future.

Power form, speed form, defense form, comprehensive form, maybe even a superpower form, it will be really cool.

I couldn't help but laugh, but I was awakened by the consumption required, "Oh, there is still a long way to go. At least I know what to use to reduce the cooling time."

Back to reality, we still have to be down-to-earth and continue to develop gene seeds until the night falls.

When he was sleeping at night, he dreamed that he opened a treasure chest, which was full of mother ores.

However, all the mother ores went crazy, grew mouths and feet on their bodies, chased him and bit him, and scared him into a cold sweat.

"No, I was chased by the mother ores. I have to absorb them all."

Li Ming gritted his teeth and covered his head to take revenge.

At night, dark clouds gathered, lightning flashed, and soon rain gathered like beads and fell down.

In an apartment building, in a high-rise room, the curtains were closed, and there was only a faint light in the room. A few figures sat casually on the sofa and chairs, and no one spoke.

Until the doorbell rang, a bust popped up on the screen hanging on the wall. It was a man wearing a blue raincoat.

"Open the door..." The voice was dull, someone opened the door, the smell of rain came to his face, and water drops dripped from the corners of the raincoat. He entered the door.

"The Fire Source..." Everyone started.

The Fire Source said impatiently: "Why do you keep the lights so dim?"

Turning on the switch on the wall, the downlights on all four sides lit up, and the blazing white light beams illuminated the entire room as if it were daytime.

The pupils of several people shrank for a moment, and they were silent.

"I called you here for two things." He shook his body, raindrops fell, and looked around:

"First, someone attacked Li Ming yesterday. Was it your people?"

"All our people were arrested. I don't know who the heavy armor and sniper belong to." Several people around shook their heads.

"Find out as soon as possible." He said in a deep voice: "With the potential for development at level 16, only he can attract the attention of [Super Power Istanbul]. If he dies before the plan, all efforts will be in vain."

"He must not fail!"

"We understand." Everyone nodded, with determination on their faces.

"There is one more thing. The Apostle of Fireworks is coming." As soon as the words fell, a mixture of excitement and fear appeared on the faces of the other people.

The Fire Source Envoy seemed not to notice and continued: "However, due to the successive events on Jingnan Star, the difficulty of smuggling has greatly increased. It is very troublesome for this person to come in."

"Do you have any channels to solve this problem?"

"This..." Everyone looked at each other, and finally looked at one of them. He was in his thirties, with an ordinary face and a beard. He hesitated: "Although I have been lurking in Jingnan for many years, the channels I have contacted are not high-end."

The Fire Source Envoy frowned and was a little annoyed: "Who killed Fu Zongchen? Do you have any clues?"

"Not yet." This time someone quickly took over: "It is said that the people in the investigation team have reached the point of suspecting that the people present have space-related abilities."
