This is not mechanical ascension. - Chapter 333

Blackbeard…Since they parted at Red River Star Flow, he and the other party have never met again, but they occasionally contacted each other on the Internet and exchanged some information.

As for the organization behind the other party, or even the core plan, he never heard the other party mention it again.

Thinking in his heart, his body shape was changing at the same time, and soon he became Qinglong and connected to the communication.

Soon there was a response, and the virtual screen unfolded in front of him. Blackbeard was still rubbing his beard and smiling at the same time.

“I didn’t expect that you still remember me.” Li Ming said lightly to express his dissatisfaction. The last time they met, he opened his mouth to split the Xingyuan Empire.

As a result, there was no sound after that, and he didn’t say to introduce him to other people, and he didn’t even let him join the group chat.

“What does your Excellency Qinglong mean?” Blackbeard looked surprised.

Li Ming said calmly, “Do I have to go through some tests before I can be accepted?”

Blackbeard coughed dryly, “Misunderstood, our organization is loose, this is also to retain more strength when discovered.”

“Really? I have been waiting for your big plan.” Li Ming did not comment.

“How can the plan be so fast…” Blackbeard shook his head and explained, “The personnel transfer, deployment, and various plans have aroused the vigilance of many people in the last time in the Red River Star Stream. Sir, be patient.”

Li Ming had a blank expression on his face. Of course, he knew this truth. Every previous plan was arranged by the other party for several years.

The Red River Star Stream incident was completely concluded after the war between the two sides. There is no next step so soon, but the attitude should still be there.

Blackbeard was helpless. They were indeed not very confident about Qinglong in their organization. The main reason was that their origins could not be found at all. There were not many places that could hide mechanics of this level.

“Actually, I have difficulties too…” Blackbeard said helplessly with a wry smile: “Your Excellency’s background is unpredictable, and some friends are really uneasy. If you can reveal a little…”

“I remember that it was you who invited me to join, why don’t you trust me now?” Li Ming asked back: “Besides, do you know each other well?”

Blackbeard paused and shook his head: “Forget it, you are right, some people’s nonsense.”

After a few words, he got to the point. Blackbeard said solemnly: “Do you know the hammer forger?”

“Hull?” Li Ming’s eyes flashed with a sharp light , “The Forging Hammer Godsmith Hull was one of the leaders who founded the Mechanic Association, but he seems to have disappeared for a long time.”

“Yes.” Blackbeard nodded, “The Forging Hammer Godsmith once went deep into the dimensional world to find precious materials and tissues, but he never returned, and the infinite heavy hammer in his hand also disappeared, causing grief to countless mechanics.”

“Recently, we have learned some clues that his disappearance may be related to the Xingyuan Empire.”

“Really…” Li Ming stroked his chin. The Forging Hammer Godsmith has an extraordinary reputation and a high reputation among the mechanics.

Higher than the other two Godsmiths, he has paid a lot for the interests of the mechanics.

He is the first person to clearly divide the levels of mechanics, which has benefited the mechanics a lot.

If it can be confirmed that his disappearance is indeed related to the Xingyuan Empire, the anger of the mechanic group is enough to reduce his luck.

“Is it true or false?” Li Ming asked suddenly.

Blackbeard shook his head, “What does it matter whether it’s true or not?”

“This matter needs to be exposed by someone who is influential enough. We have contacted two forging-star mechanics and you.”

Li Ming pondered, “Three forging-star mechanics in the Mechanic Association are enough, but there is no God Craftsman to support this major event…”

“The God Craftsman supports the platform from top to bottom. But it is not impossible to support the God Craftsman from bottom to top.” Blackbeard shook his head, “Our goal is not to make the Mechanic Association completely hostile to the Xingyuan Empire, or even take action. This matter is enough.”

Ten thousand rivers converge into the sea, one thing accumulates, and when it explodes, it will be the day of shattering.

“Specific plan…” Li Ming asked.

Blackbeard immediately said: “This matter is divided into three steps…”

“…”

“Of course, I will take care of your student’s business.”

Blackbeard smiled and ended the communication, called up a document, and looked at it for a long time, “Such a small business… still needs me to take care of it, what on earth does he want to do?”

Blackbeard couldn’t figure it out. This Li Ming wanted to play house, would Qinglong still play with him?

………

“The hammer forger, the infinite hammer…” Li Ming looked at the photo on the screen. Hull was a giant, four meters tall, with red skin and white beard.

The hammer in his hand was purple-black, dotted with stars. If the S-level weapon, the star-casting tool, can be called an interstellar treasure.

Then this hammer is a cosmic treasure, combining destructive power and auxiliary ability. It is said that a hammer can change the properties of an object, and it is even useful for living things, and can change men into women.

It looks ridiculous, but Li Ming knows that this has changed the cognition of the universe and even the cognition of self.

It can even break open space and travel across galaxies.

Blackbeard’s plan is divided into three steps, namely, news brewing, interstellar attention, and truth exposure.

The first two steps do not require them to intervene. Only this last step requires them to go deep into the dimensional world and discover the “truth.”

Of course, there are various details in between, and Blackbeard did not say much.

There will always be various changes in advance planning, and it needs to be constantly adjusted and act according to the situation.

Li Ming took the opportunity to ask the other party to take care of his student Li Ming’s business.

During this time, the news has spread, and Qinglong has planted a flag and set up a pole in the chaotic star gap.

Although it appears that the owner of the base is Li Ming, no one cares about this little guy.

Arms dealers, in particular, are facing a formidable enemy. Star-level mechanics have a reputation and prestige in related fields that ordinary people cannot compare with.

Although compared to their business, the turnover of this so-called Mechanical Royal Court is nothing.

They even said that if it were started by another force, they wouldn’t even care, even if the scale were larger, it wouldn’t matter.

But this is a star-casting mechanic. Once he decides to intervene, the share he wants will definitely not be even a tiny bit. How can he not be prepared to take action?

This is not to look down on Qinglong, but rather to be too serious.

All technological and mechanical creations belong to the exclusive area of ​​mechanics. Behind those large arms dealers, there are many star-level mechanics.

It is indeed not easy to break out of the world.

With various thoughts passing through his mind, Li Ming looked at the time and left the special training room. As soon as he left the door, the mimicked Suzaku landed on his shoulder.

“Is the warehouse ready?” he asked.

“It’s ready. Ten thousand sets of mechanical bodies have been put into storage.” Suzaku responded.

Li Ming nodded and walked through the base corridor to the giant warehouse at the rear. After stepping into this place, the Suzaku on his shoulders also disappeared. There is no monitoring equipment here, let alone virtual imaging equipment.

The warehouse is brightly lit, and hundreds of large robotic arms and transport crawlers are working non-stop.

This is connected to the final assembly factory of the mechanical warriors. Each assembled mechanical warrior will be transported here and stored, layer after layer, hanging on the transport tracks.

Li Ming couldn’t help but nod, and walked to the middle. The circular metal platform on the ground quickly rose, lifting it to the center of the mechanical warrior array.

Then he stretched out his hands, and wisps of golden arcs burst out from his fingertips, landed on the nearest mechanical body, and then multiplied rapidly. Large areas of mechanical arcs burst out, one to two, two to four, multiplying exponentially.

In the end, the entire array of mechanical warriors was enveloped in a golden arc.

But at the same time, the light from the mechanical soldier who first came into contact with the golden arc had faded, like a surging tide, from the inside to the outside, in less than five minutes.

The pupils of these mechanical warriors moved, and Li Ming was the first to speak out, “Suzaku will connect to your system and guide you.”

After hearing what he said, all the mechanical warriors fell silent, their tracks started to move, and they walked down one by one.

As the artificial intelligence Suzaku created and inspired by Li Ming himself, it also has the ability to “manage all intelligently controlled objects”.

“Tsk, six million metal energy…” Li Ming shook his head. The mechanical warrior after enlightenment has absolute loyalty and will not be changed by any program.

The only trouble before was the need to control it. Fortunately, the ability of [Mechanical King] allowed him to control it while constructing it.

But this kind of control cannot gain any ability, nor can it be included in the control space.

But for Li Ming, it was well worth the money.

These mechanical warriors are all uniformly manufactured models and belong to D level. The control condition is 6,000 points of metal energy, which is the limit of Li Ming’s design.

Without the [Mechanical Lord], he would have to spend an additional 60 million metal energy to control it, which would greatly slow down the start of his power.

This base, the many manufacturing assembly lines, and these mechanical soldiers have already consumed the remaining refined alloy.

One-third of these mechanical warriors will be instilled with relevant mechanical knowledge to manufacture arms.

The remaining two-thirds, after being equipped with weapons, will be mixed with gray-eyed mercenaries to accept various tasks.

“What we have to do next is to come and enlighten us every once in a while…” Li Ming estimated that the initial investment plus subsequent profits would continue to generate income and cycle on its own.

“After further expansion, it is necessary to get involved in the mineral stars and master the refining of materials from the source. That will take off.”

“And I only need to find the energy needed to upgrade, and harvest regularly to improve my strength.”

He pondered, but these things could not be rushed.

“Master, there is still half an hour left for the regular meeting.”

Coming out of the warehouse, Suzaku appeared on his shoulder again, giving a timely reminder.

Li Ming nodded. Since the Mechanical Royal Court got on the right track, there were a lot of things to do in the early stage, and a meeting would be held every three days to report and summarize.

He immediately went to the core meeting room. Ulrich had arrived early and was preparing various materials. Konite was also there, as well as Sandro, with middle-level cadres sitting in two rows.

Seeing him arriving, Ulrich said hello, looked around and said, “Since everyone is here, let’s start early.”

Everyone was sitting upright. Ulrich looked at Li Ming. Li Ming nodded and said:

“The manpower problem mentioned in the last meeting has basically been solved. The first batch of mechanical combat soldiers has been produced and various settings have been made. They are ready for application.”

Manpower is a big problem. The mercenaries under Gray Tong are rough men and cannot do technical work.

Even highly automated assembly line production requires humans.

Ulrich was not surprised. After the assembly line was built, the first thing to be produced was the mechanical warriors, and all the other things were put away. It has been almost a month, and it should be effective.

“This is better, production efficiency can be raised to a higher level…” Konet nodded, “The security company’s arms are only two months away from delivery, and it’s still in time…”

The two briefly summarized that there was basically nothing big, just performance summary and the like, and the overall situation looked stable and improving.

Sandro had no say in these matters, like a mute person.

More than an hour later, the middle-level cadres left one after another, leaving only Ulrich and Konet, and only then did their faces become a little solemn.

“Those arms dealers are moving more frequently. Three days ago, a batch of orders were cancelled, and the other party was even willing to pay 10% liquidated damages.”

“Which arms dealers are the main ones?” Li Ming frowned slightly.

“Burke, Harlan, Sibyl are the leaders, and there are more small and medium-sized arms dealers…” Ulrich rubbed his brows, “There are many star-level mechanics behind them.”

The network channel has already taken over the first batch of business, but the other party just used low prices to pry away their orders, so there is nothing they can do.

“Of course, with our current production capacity, we can’t accept more orders, but if we want to expand, we should prepare early.” Ulrich hesitated and said, “Should we let Lord Qinglong say hello to those people?”

“Hmph, what hello? If they dare to steal our orders, we dare to destroy their merchant ships.” Sandro said coldly, “It’s nothing more than seeing whose fist is bigger.”

“It’s not that simple. Will we still do business in the future?” Ulrich frowned.

Cornit added, “Recently, there are many unknown spaceships outside the galaxy. They should be trying to find out the news.”

“Hmm?” Li Ming’s eyes condensed slightly. They have come to the base camp to spy?

“Lord Sandro is right. It’s nothing more than seeing whose fist is bigger.” Li Ming was indifferent.

Sandro grinned and glanced at Ulrich proudly.

Ulrich frowned and advised: “If we want to take action, we can only abandon this place.”

“Of course we won’t attack their merchant ships, we should clear the surrounding area first.” Li Ming shook his head. Chaos Star Gap is not really chaotic.

Even the robbed man knew to find soft persimmons.

At the same time, there is an invisible rule-strength and power are equal.

Only a hegemon-level figure like Anduin can control every star gate in Chaos Star Gap.

Fists alone cannot support a large organization, but if fists are not enough, even power cannot be formed.

“I’m afraid many people want to weigh how much my teacher is.”

Li Ming said slowly, Ulrich and Connit looked at each other, this is what they didn’t say.

After the meeting, his order was quickly implemented, and Sandro personally took action to clear the exploration spacecraft near the galaxy one by one.

Some spies saw that the situation was not good and quickly withdrew, barely escaping.
