This is not mechanical ascension.

"In addition, according to the information provided by our insiders in the Torch organization, the existence of dimensional gods can be confirmed. This matter will be confirmed soon."

Prince Baijan gave his son a breath and ended the communication.

Then Ford answered a few more calls, some of which made him look respectful, and some of which made him curse.

After a rare moment of calm, he kneaded his brows and suddenly received another piece of news. He immediately jumped to his feet and cursed angrily.

"Damn Duke Bai Ye!" He gritted his teeth and hurried to Wu Yanqing's laboratory.

He originally wanted to discuss it with Li Ming to see if this guy had any dirty ideas.

As a result, he learned a piece of news that made him even more excited.

"What do you mean Li Ming has left Jingnan Star?" Ford stared at Luochuan closely.

Luo Chuan smiled and explained: "That's the literal meaning. Earlier, Li Ming had followed Ya Luo and left Jingnan Star."

"Who, who asked him to leave?" Ford felt something was wrong.

"Why can't he leave?" Luo Chuan was puzzled, "I heard that Duke Bai Ye also left?"

Ford's anger was hidden: "The death of Isius has not been thoroughly investigated, how could he leave!"

Luochuan shrugged.

"Where is he going?" Ford asked.

"I don't know the specifics. Your Highness should ask him yourself." Luo Chuan shook his head.

Ford suppressed his anger and left. Even if he contacted Li Ming, no one answered the first time. It was not until the second time that Li Ming's big head popped up from the virtual screen, looking rather lazy.

"Who asked you to leave?" Ford asked immediately.

"Myself." Li Ming said slowly.

"Why are you leaving? Do you know that leaving now will make you very suspicious." Ford was aggressive.

"What suspicion?" Li Ming was confused at first, and then suddenly realized: "Oh, you mean, the death of Isius?"

"Didn't we find a kind of fire in the Yiying fleet? Besides, you searched me all over and couldn't find the ring. What does this matter have to do with me?"

Ford frowned: "Then why did you leave?"

"Because I'm scared."

Li Ming's answer made Ford a little stunned. Before he could ask further questions, he heard Li Ming continue:

"Then Asmara doesn't like me to begin with, so there's no guarantee that she won't show off the death of Isius."

"Of course, the more important thing is that I don't want to get involved in the vortex of your game. I want to find a place to have a good time and wait for the storm to pass."

When Ford heard this, he was still puzzled, "Even if Asmara will target you, my father will help you."

"Help me?" Li Ming sneered, "Unconditionally?"

Ford paused, "But if you leave like this, you will be in trouble."

"I know." Li Ming smiled, "But I believe His Highness Ford will help me get rid of the trouble."

Fred's face looked ugly, and he knew that he was wiping his butt again!

"Where are you going?" He gritted his teeth.

"You don't have to worry about this. Anyway, there is a star network, so we can keep in touch at any time." Li Ming smiled and then ended the communication.

Putting away the smart terminal, the room he was in looked a little messy, not only narrow, but also had a vague smell.

Opening the door, the corridor is equally crowded, with all kinds of debris placed haphazardly.

Outside the porthole window, the stream of light is like stars, and it is on a leaping voyage.

"Junior brother, the spaceship is too broken, don't worry about it." Yaro sat in the driver's seat, turned around and said with a smile.

This spacecraft is narrow in front and wide in back, streamlined, and its external armor is slightly worn and its paint is seriously damaged.

On the left and right sides are mechanical horizontal bars embedded in the hull. At the ends of the horizontal bars are spiral propeller jets. The angle can be changed and it is relatively flexible. It is a modified civilian spacecraft and has a symbolic fire control system.

"It's okay." Li Ming shook his head and asked, "How long does it take for us to reach the Land of the Stars?"

"We passed through the Star Gate and came directly to the Aurora Civilization. Originally, we should only need to drive for more than half a month to get there." Yaro estimated.

"But we need to take a detour, which may take a month and a half."

"A month and a half?" Li Ming frowned slightly, "Is it that long?"

"Interstellar travel, which lasts for several months, is the norm." Yaro said nonchalantly.

"Then why the detour?" Li Ming was puzzled.

"Uh...for some reasons." Yaro said vaguely. Li Ming saw this and didn't ask any further questions.

Returning to his room, Yaro's ship was emasculated and its infrastructure was incomplete, not to mention the monitoring equipment.

Taking out the subspace folding ring obtained from Isius, Li Ming's eyes flashed with fire.

On Jingnan Planet, in order to avoid unexpected situations, he never took it out. It was only now that he had the opportunity to study it carefully.

After turning it slightly, he felt a magical feeling.

The space around the ring seemed to be distorted. When you put your palm over it, it seemed to be wrapped in a film of water. You could vaguely feel a special space, but strangely, you couldn't reach in.

"Is there some kind of verification?" Li Ming frowned. After thinking for a moment, he found that it was indeed the case. It seemed to be genetic verification.

He was not too surprised. Such high-tech items would seem strange without such verification.

"We can only try that." Li Ming put away the ring again and put it in the control column.

In an instant, he could vaguely feel a space. It was not big, only about five cubic meters.

He tried to reach out, and then his arm seemed to really sink into the space, and the front half disappeared. When he pulled it out, he was holding a metal tube similar to a syringe in his hand.

It was as thick as Li Ming's arm, and a creature with wings spread and flying was carved on the surface. Through the glass, the blue and green liquid could be clearly seen.

"Wind Thunder Pterosaur Gene Seed." Li Ming smiled.

Sure enough, this method can bypass the authority verification, and it is more convenient and can be stored at will.

Then, he took out everything in this space.

There were a lot of things. Li Ming checked them one by one. There was even a D-level gene purification potion. He also had this thing, which he obtained during the previous entrance examination and brought it this time.

"This is..." Li Ming picked out a piece of black metal from it. There were golden words on the surface. He was very familiar with it. It was something from the ruins of some civilization.

It was bigger than the one Wu Yanqing experimented with, and it was as big as a head. He tried to extract the metal energy.

"One million and sixty thousand metal energies..." Li Ming grinned. He had seen the "gold content" of this thing once.

This thing was an unexpected gain, probably given to him by Princess Asmara.

He rummaged around for a while, but there was nothing special. Most of them were sundries. A few USB flash drives, Li Ming glanced roughly, there were a lot of files, but he didn't look at them in detail for the time being.

After sorting these things out and stuffing them all into the space, Li Ming's eyes moved slightly. Just when he was about to try the [Space Flash] ability, he suddenly stopped and broke out in a cold sweat.

"Fuck, I almost forgot, now we are in the jump orbit. If I perform space flash directly, will I fall out of the spaceship due to the speed difference? That would be the end."

He was still in shock. The space ability was special and weird. Trying it easily would be courting death.

Putting this matter aside for the time being, he stretched out his hand, and a mecha suddenly appeared in front of him. It was the [Tepper Combat Mecha] that Prince Baijan had worn.

He had some expectations in his heart. When he put his palm on it, a large amount of metal energy was lost, and light sprayed out from the titanium alloy heat sink on its surface.

The limbs made of high-strength alloy began to move autonomously, and each movement was accompanied by the subtle hissing of the hydraulic system.

The armor leaves on the surface of the body opened and closed like the scales of a living creature, making a sound of metal friction.

The silicon-based nerve fibers grew wildly along the chrome alloy skeleton, interweaving with the carbon nanotube muscle bionic fibers inside, and finally interweaving into a mechanical heart in the cavity.

As the metal energy continued to flow out, this mecha was undergoing a deep transformation, and the flame of life was ignited in the mechanical heart.

Li Ming observed carefully, and every part of the mecha seemed to come alive, with a mechanical eye composed of an optical fiber array, flashing with the light of wisdom.

The mechanical arm made of alloy and fiber composite was flexible and powerful, and the legs were driven by a magnetic levitation device, which could move freely and quickly on any plane.

"Tapper... Creator..." He made a mechanical voice, which was still difficult.

This is the first mechanical guard he modified - [Tepper].

Tepper is modified from a wearable mecha, with purple and gold, a sturdy appearance and sharp edges.

Most of its internal structures are made of metal energy, so it consumes one million metal energies.

However, its combat effectiveness is also very good, even surpassing the current Li Ming, and it is estimated that it can fight against a life form with 90% progress of C-level.

Moreover, it is particularly outstanding in defense.

Li Ming tried to command and found that its intelligence was extremely high, and the underlying code logic was locked in a very special way and could not be changed.

Then, he tried [Guard Armament] again, and suddenly, the burly Tepper began to disintegrate, and a large number of metal parts quickly attached to Li Ming, and its sophisticated structure was assembled again, and finally formed a sophisticated armor structure.

"So it's this form." Li Ming thought.

Then he tried further, wearing a tank guard mecha, and then armed the guard.

"It can actually be done." Li Ming was quite surprised. His current height was close to four meters, almost reaching the top of Yaluo's dilapidated spaceship.

The surface of the tank guard was covered with a layer of precision metal armor. The arms and thighs were even thicker. A large shield was hung on the left arm, and the functions of all aspects were upgraded to a higher level.

After disintegration, in the blink of an eye, all the equipment on the surface of the body disappeared without a trace.

"It's really promising." After trying, Li Ming even wanted to create another mechanical guard.

Unfortunately, the metal energy dried up again, and he couldn't help shaking his head.

"【Evolution of the Lord of the Fierce Wind】, Mechanical Guard..." Li Ming secretly calculated that when he became a C-level life form, he would unlock another control column, and upgrading to B-level would also be on the agenda.

He couldn't help but secretly sigh for a while, the gap in metal energy was getting bigger and bigger.

Xingchuang Company has completely collapsed, Xunying Company has made a comeback, and Zhang Huaiyuan has also got back on track and has begun to contact the mineral planet, but it still takes some time to develop.

Of course, there is no need to rush to upgrade, and it should be done step by step. Basically, he has all C-level control objects on him, which can still support him.

It is better to become a C-level life form first, and when he arrives at the Land of Stars, the development progress should be able to reach 100%.

He only temporarily escaped from the vortex, but not completely. The Land of Stars is not a safe place, and there are also the ruins of civilization...

Li Ming was thinking about it. At this moment, the smart terminal placed next to him flickered, the speed of the spacecraft suddenly dropped, and the lights kept flickering.

"Fuck, give me some strength, don't..." There was shouting from outside. Li Ming looked out and saw Yaro, who was kicking the floor with an embarrassed look on his face.

"It's okay, it's the same old problem, wait until I restart it."

"It's okay." Li Ming still smiled, and Yaro felt even more embarrassed.

Back in the room, Li Ming opened the smart terminal and had obtained the highest authority of the dilapidated spaceship. There was no surveillance video, so he could only click on the voyage log.

Glancing at the trajectory, he raised his eyebrows slightly and found that the original navigation trajectory was quite regular. It was probably a blur of noise and the original coordinates, which should be the land of stars.

Then set off to other places, and then turn back.

However, just some time ago, after the last journey, Yaro did not return to the Land of Stars. He should have gone to find Lao Wu.

After the spacecraft restarted, Li Ming walked out and opened the wires, "Brother, the reason why you took the detour must have something to do with the wanted order for Star Hunter, right?"

Yaluo's expression changed slightly, and he said helplessly: "I won't hide it from you, it's true."

"The Star Hunters are a large plundering group in the Land of Stars, and the leader is an A-level life form, extremely powerful."

"Oh." Li Ming became interested, "In that case, how could senior brother provoke them?"

"Alas..." Yaro said helplessly, "Actually, I was also a cadre of the Star Hunters. Not long ago, we got a piece of information, which was a batch of goods secretly sold by the Sera civilization."

"The market value of this batch of goods is not less than 1 billion star coins. We sold it at half the price of the stolen goods, and it was worth 400 to 500 million. We naturally coveted it, and then we sold it."

"Unexpectedly, the Sera civilization used ordinary travel ships as a cover. After grabbing the goods, there were too many innocent people who needed to be silenced. I really couldn't bear to do it, so I had to take advantage of them when they were not prepared, seize the ship, and escape."

Li Ming's eyes were burning, "Goods worth one billion? What kind of goods?"

"It seems to be some kind of military-grade material used to build large weapons." Yaro couldn't explain.

Li Ming's eyes brightened. It was most likely made of metal. How much metal energy would it require?

"Oh, I feel a little regretful now. I'm not a good person, so why would I do such a thing." Yaro sighed, "But I didn't know what I was thinking at the time, so I just did it."

"With such a large shipment, the Star Hunters will definitely not let it go. I can only bypass their territory and go in another direction."

Having said this, Yaro smiled mockingly, "You look down on me, too. I'm a plunderer. Why do you do such good things?"

"No." Li Ming looked solemn, "Senior brother, you did a great job, great."

Yaluo was stunned. He turned around and saw the green light in Li Ming's eyes, which startled him. He was so familiar with that look, and he immediately understood what Li Ming was thinking.

Yes, the transport ship was too obvious. Sera and the Star Hunters were tracking it, so he could only leave it on a certain planet.

"No, that thing is a hot potato. The Star Hunters have already let the wind go, and no one dares to take this batch of goods." He shook his head repeatedly:

"It's too risky. You should give up. I can't lead you into a pit."
