This is not mechanical ascension.

"Everything is going according to plan, but this has happened, and I'm afraid I'll have to stay for a while."

Li Ming thought about it, took a photo of the black metals, and sent it to Chen Jinglong: "Dean, what kind of interstellar precious metal is this? Why have I never seen it before, and I can't find it on the Star Network."

Chen Jinglong didn't respond.

Li Ming frowned, feeling more and more wrong, staring at the boxes in front of him.

This thing seems very unusual. If it is absorbed, will the Torch go crazy?

Li Ming pondered, but his hands did not stop, absorbing these black metal blocks.

However, he did not absorb it until it disappeared completely. After reaching a certain limit, he stopped and put it aside.

This cycle repeats over and over again.

If these things really disappear and the Torch goes crazy, then the first suspect will be him.

The Torch is not a government civilization, and it must follow procedures and evidence.

They are a terrorist organization, and they do things without regard for consequences.

To be on the safe side, Li Ming decided to leave them a shell to absorb most of the metal energy, but there was no clue on the surface.

At the same time, the toilet where Sein died had been put under martial law, with three layers inside and three layers outside. People from the city guards, the intelligence department, the Privy Council, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs came.

In the temporary experimental cabin built outside, Sein's headless body was placed in the center, with his head on top, his eyes wide open, and he died with his eyes wide open.

Duke Bai Ye stood on one side with Guyat, and Ren Cangsong stood on the other side with others.

The atmosphere on the scene was tense, and everyone had different thoughts.

Duke Bai Ye was the first to break the silence, saying bluntly: "This is the security that Blue Star is proud of. A C-level life form died here silently, and was not discovered until more than ten minutes later."

"How ridiculous!"

Ren Cangsong looked ugly, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, Your Excellency the Duke, we are already screening the surveillance video. After Sein entered, no one who entered and exited this toilet will be spared."

Duke Bai Ye snorted coldly, "First, His Highness Yuko, then Sein, all of them are important figures in our Sera, what on earth do you want to do in Blue Star!"

Ren Cangsong frowned, and when he was about to speak, someone hurried in with a document and handed it to him.

Ren Cangsong took a look, his expression was shocked, and at the same time, doubts and confusion emerged.

"But what did you find out?" Duke Bai Ye asked immediately.

"We caught the murderer." Ren Cangsong's tone was hard to express, and there was no excitement.

"Huh?" Duke Bai Ye walked over quickly to check the document, and Ren Cangsong did not stop him.

"The man from Torch?" Duke Bai Ye frowned and shouted, "E-class life form? Are you kidding me?"

"Please tell me, how can an E-class life form kill a C-class life form!?"

"The blood of Lord Sain was detected on him, and the murder weapon was found. He also confessed to killing Lord Sain." Ren Cangsong's men responded immediately.

"In addition, according to the autopsy, we found that the activity of Lord Sain's gene cells was extremely low. According to the data model, it is likely that he was suppressed by the gene inhibitor."

"We found tiny pinholes in his chest, spine and other parts to prove this. Although his muscles were highly tense before his death, there was no obvious sign of resistance."

Duke Bai Ye heard this, his expression did not change, but asked: "Then explain to me, who put the gene inhibitor on him."

"No signs of resistance were detected on him. He was either willing or forced to wear it by someone who was much stronger than him." Ren Cangsong Song took over the conversation, popped up a virtual screen, called up the video, and then zoomed in——

"This is your man, all the surveillance videos after entering the star port. At 8:22, Sein seemed to have discovered something and was operating on the smart terminal."

"However, we checked his smart terminal and did not send information to anyone."

"But he anonymously reported a suspicious person. The security members on the scene quickly arrested him after discovering him. After verification, it was found that he was from Torch."

Duke Bai Ye frowned and looked at Sein on the screen, looking left and right, with a look of surprise and excitement. What on earth was he doing?

And reported Torch's people?

So Torch killed him? This is too far-fetched.

Gu Yat hesitated and said, "I have a clue. He asked me for the mental stand barrier."

"Mental stand barrier?" Ren Cangsong was slightly shocked. He quickly took the information, looked through it carefully, and frowned, saying, "I didn't find it on him."

"What does he need the mental stand barrier for? To defend against mental attacks? Psychic ability users? He secretly talked to psychic ability users?"

"He was controlled?" Ren Cangsong made multiple speculations in an instant.

Ren Cangsong's men added, "After the murder, the murderer hurried away, but his trajectory was very obvious. He was quickly captured, but no mental stand barrier was found on him. We will review the route now."

"Did he say why he killed Sai Yin?" Duke Bai Ye questioned.

"He said..." The man hesitated again, wanting to say something but stopping.

Duke Bai Ye was dissatisfied: "What do you want to hide from me?"

"He said it was the guidance of a certain dimensional god." He gritted his teeth and finished speaking, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became quiet.

Duke Bai Ye looked suspicious. The guidance of the dimensional god?

The excuse was too ridiculous, and it sounded like it was because of...

Ever since the civilization that came into contact with dimensional creatures was destroyed more than a hundred years ago.

The remaining survivors were absorbed into the Torch, and using dimensional creatures to cause trouble became an extremely important means for the Torch, and it was very destructive.

"According to one of the survivors, when he heard the wailing, he discovered that Lord Sein was trying to peel off the gene suppressor on his body. He didn't see anyone else, and then the murderer went in."

"As for what happened before the wailing, he didn't know."

"Same as our verification, the murderer followed shortly after Mr. Sain entered."

"What about the past few days? Maybe someone was ambushing them." Duke Bai Ye asked.

The possibility that Saiin would voluntarily wear a gene suppressor was too low, and Duke Bai Ye didn't even think about it.

"If you want to put it this way, the workload will be too much. Besides, the surveillance video of Star Port will only be retained for seven days, and then it will be overwritten." The other party was confused:

"The news of your arrival has been confirmed half a month ago. It is possible if someone has been lurking in it for half a month."

"But he has to leave at some point. Can't you do it to screen the identities of all life forms in the entire star port?"

"It can be done, you just need to wait." Ren Cangsong nodded.

Duke Bai Ye smiled but said: "It's okay, I have plenty of time. I hope you can find clues. First, His Highness Yuko, and then Saiin. The torch is really unimpeded in your Blue Star territory."

He led the people away. Ren Cangsong's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. After waving everyone away, he looked towards the corner.

There was always someone there.

"Lao Chen, what's going on? Who is that person?" Ren Cangsong asked helplessly.

When he was screening everyone who had been to that toilet today, Chen Jinglong suddenly appeared and asked him to conceal information about a person.

"Sai Yin's death has nothing to do with you, right?" Seeing that Chen Jinglong was silent, Ren Cangsong continued to ask.

"I don't have time to kill him." Chen Jinglong shook his head.

"Then who is the person you asked me to erase?" Ren Cangsong asked again, "If you don't tell me, don't blame me for checking it out myself."

Chen Jinglong hesitated, hesitated, sighed and said, "It's Li Ming."

"Li Ming!?" Ren Cangsong was stunned, thinking a lot in his heart, and deliberately lowered his voice: "What on earth are you doing here!"

"Fishing." Chen Jinglong gave a general explanation, but also concealed some key things.

Ren Cangsong was still surprised and said, "You use him as bait? Wu Yanqing will fight you tooth and nail."

"Besides, with such a good seedling, aren't you afraid that something will happen to him?"

Chen Jinglong was helpless, "If the bait is not sweet, how can we catch big fish?"

"Then did you catch it?"

Those black metal blocks appeared in front of Chen Jinglong's eyes, but he shook his head: "Not yet, he needs further contact."

"Stop fishing and let him develop gene seeds honestly." Ren Cangsong sighed and asked in a low voice: "Then tell me honestly, Saiin's death has nothing to do with you."

"I said it doesn't matter." Chen Jinglong frowned, "Do you think I lurked in the toilet for half a month, then forced Saiin to wear a gene suppressor, and then found a person with a torch to kill him?"

"Or did Li Ming trick him into wearing a gene suppressor without even touching him, and then turned into a dimensional god to guide the torch to kill him?"

"He went to the bathroom just to adjust his mimicry mask, and he told me that at the time."

Ren Cangsong smiled awkwardly and muttered: "It just feels like a coincidence. There seems to be some kind of connection between Saiin and Li Ming."

"He is trying to assassinate Li Ming." Chen Jinglong said solemnly, "The mimic mask only changes the appearance, but other physical characteristics and behavioral habits have not changed. People who are familiar with it can roughly tell."

"Perhaps Sein had discovered Li Ming's presence at that time and was in contact with some people."

"He wants to kill Li Ming!!" Ren Cangsong's expression suddenly became awe-inspiring, filled with murderous intent, "These green-headed algae deserve what they deserve!"

Chen Jinglong speculated: "The Torch moves too frequently. I suspect that Saiin accidentally discovered the clues about the Torch when he was investigating Li Ming. He followed the investigation and was killed."

Then he said regretfully: "I originally wanted to keep him until he made another big move, then I would find him out and hand him over to Sera Civilization, so that we could defeat them all."

Ren Cangsong glared at him, "What if you lose it?"

"Everything has risks." Chen Jinglong looked calm.

Ren Cangsong frowned. He had always disliked Chen Jinglong's behavior. Everyone knew Wu Yanqing's ruthlessness.

But very few people know that the always amiable Dean Chen is still more victorious.

Ren Cangsong snorted coldly, "You can think about it yourself, I will wipe away all traces of Li Ming."

Sein died, Sera was furious, and Duke Bai Ye cursed.

Face-to-face verification is naturally indispensable. The intelligent system is screening, and it is difficult to complete the identity comparison of so many people in one time, not to mention the life forms of other civilizations.

For five whole hours, the Star Port was in a closed stage. Many lives were cursing and restless, and Blue Star could only comfort them.

………

Close to one million metal energy!

Li Ming put the last piece of black metal back into its place, with satisfaction and comfort in his eyes.

The metal energy balance reached a new height, around 1.2 million points.

"According to calculations, the total metal energy contained in these black metal blocks may reach 1.5 million." It was more than he originally estimated.

Unexpectedly, this time he gained so much from taking advantage of others. This was the result of his restraint.

"I have extracted most of the metal energy from it. Although there are no clues on the surface, the original characteristics have been greatly weakened."

Li Ming covered it with black flannel again. No matter what Torch wanted to use these things for, their effectiveness had been greatly reduced.

"And this guy..." After cleaning up everything here, Li Ming opened the smart terminal again, called up a picture, and then enlarged it.

A rather ordinary woman, with some freckles on the bridge of her nose, curly light blond hair, and sharp eyes.

In the process of absorbing metal energy, Li Ming conducted a detailed exploration of the spacecraft, recent surveillance videos and voyage logs.

It really gave him some clues. The apparent captain of this spaceship was named Libert.

There is no problem with his identity information. He was born in the Saaser galaxy and has been following an interstellar caravan before.

About five years ago, I purchased this second-hand starship at my own expense and started a starship leasing business.

According to the details shown in the surveillance video, Captain Libert faced this crew member named Suzulan on many occasions.

A respectful attitude always emerges subconsciously, such as turning sideways subconsciously when we meet in the corridor, and looking at her frequently during meetings.

This situation is especially common in the first few days, and then decreases slightly after a few days.

This Suzuran's identity is very special, and she is definitely not an ordinary crew member.

After getting off the cabin, martial law was still in place outside. Li Ming called Xu Heng to ask:

"Are the crew members on board still in the review room?"

"Yes." Xu Heng looked around cautiously, "The review is not over yet. We can't leave for the time being. Why don't you wait for a while."

"It's okay, take me to see them." Li Ming said.

"This..." Xu Heng hesitated. This was obviously against the rules, especially at such a sensitive moment.

But remembering the instructions from above, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, come with me."

There were not many people in the review hall, only basic security, because the starship that had just arrived did not match the time of Sein's death, and it could not be related to them.

"Well, the dead Sera man seems to have a high status. It is said that he was the teacher of some prince before. He committed a crime and was arrested recently." On the way, Xu Heng told him in a low voice:

"I heard that this guy was still a C-class life form, and he died in the toilet. There were people in the bathroom at the time. I heard that he was so scared that he paralyzed there for a long time and didn't get up."

At this point, he couldn't help but grin.
