Many people immediately understood why the three masters of the Mechanic Association had issued multiple statements in succession some time ago, emphasizing that no political persecution of the Mechanic Association would be allowed.
“Strict and severe treatment-“
A few days later, Li Ming, who had already replaced the new spaceship, watched the development of the situation.
With the announcements and statements of various civilizations, local mechanics also gathered together to discuss countermeasures and subconsciously safeguard their rights and interests.
And launched a large-scale march, the factory stopped working, and those mechanics even encouraged the workers to target the local civilization and hold demonstrations.
“The Mechanic Association, through the grassroots mechanics, can almost make a civilization suffer a heavy blow. If it were me, I would also be uneasy.”
The natural threshold of the Mechanic Association is destined to be a mechanic who can pass the assessment. Not to mention being smarter, many aspects are far superior to ordinary people, and can be quickly supported through various resources.
Then apply for loans, build factories, intervene in related industries, and eventually become a powerful force.
It’s okay in the imperial civilization, the Mechanic Association doesn’t have such a great ability, but in small and medium-sized civilizations,
It can be said to be a killer.
In fact, this is not the first time that interstellar civilizations have cut into the big cake of mechanics.
When the Mechanic Association was first established, it did not attract much attention. Most people thought that this organization would disappear soon and would not even make a wave.
But the Forging Hammer God Craftsman pulled this association up by himself.
Later, many civilizations realized the dangers behind this association and intended to split it.
But the Forging Hammer God Craftsman suppressed it with a strong attitude.
What is a strong attitude?
Li Ming heard Reynolds mention it. In fact, he went to the door alone and talked to the empire-level civilizations one by one.
When he learned about it, he was secretly shocked. How strong is the forging hammer?
And this incident also established the prestige and status of the Forging Hammer God Craftsman.
The two God Craftsmen now, Mechanical Soul and Creation, are far less powerful than the Forging Hammer God Craftsman, and their reputation is even worse.
The crisis of the Mechanic Association is getting worse and worse. Many low-level mechanics expect high-level mechanics to speak up and protect their rights and interests.
Three days later, the God of Creation finally came out, but he did not question the Star.
Instead, he asked many mechanics to remain calm and not to destroy the economic ecology and stability and security of the local civilization.
Anything should be resolved through legal negotiation.
“Fuck, what kind of God of Creation is this? His ass is really crooked. Others have bullied him to the point of asking us to endure it…”
“The God of Creation is worthy of the name of “soft mechanic”. He is so soft-“
“When he saw his father in the Empire speak, he dared not object to a word.”
The statement of the God of Creation immediately caused a counterattack within the Mechanic Association. Most of the grassroots mechanics have become ruthless because of fear.
No one can withstand the investigation. Even if they are clean, they are afraid of false charges. Anyone who does not help them will become their enemy.
“Soft mechanic—Sure enough, the creation is really self-aware.” Li Ming looked at the news and couldn’t help laughing.
It’s not the first day they knew about this. They have done many deductions with Reynolds and Mikhail.
These methods and reactions were actually within his and the creator’s expectations.
The Mechanic Association was originally a non-governmental organization and had no legal basis at all, which meant that it was actually a lamb to be slaughtered.
It only took one civilization that could bear the backlash to take the lead.
The Empire was the best leader. Two full years had passed. Without external pressure, the internal mechanics had completed the first round of purges and localization, which did not cause much reaction at all.
And this “strict and severe” attitude was bound to cause a high-pressure reaction from the mechanics.
Then let each civilization deepen its determination to solve this behemoth, because the interstellar public opinion would not be on their side due to the unrest caused.
It was not to blame these mechanics. The life-and-death crisis was imminent. Who could look at it calmly?
It was actually very simple to solve this trick. As long as someone with enough prestige stood up and ordered all mechanics not to be too radical.
If the contradictions were not intensified, there would not be many civilizations that dared to take the initiative to cut, and it would be difficult for them to fall if they were united.
“We can’t suppress it.” Li Ming still remembered the ugly face of the God-creating Craftsman when he was discussing a solution with him.
No one can stop the union of the three major civilizations. All they can do is to minimize the losses.
In fact, the bottom-level mechanics will not suffer too much loss. They have already estimated the subsequent reaction of the other party. After the confrontation continues to rise and a few typical cases are dealt with.
Turn the interstellar joint-style mechanics association into a local autonomous department, and then announce the amnesty bill.
Even if they have to bear some losses, those mechanics will flock to it.
In other words, if you want to open the window, you should first smash the door. The business will continue in the future. It’s nothing more than paying a fine.
The main losers are actually the two God-creating Craftsmen, especially the God-creating Craftsman. His assets may shrink a lot.
After the dismantling of the Mechanics Association, the so-called God-creating Craftsman’s influence will fall to the bottom.
But even if they foresee these, they can’t do anything. Pushing it step by step to this point is not something the three of them can resist. They can only try their best to recover the losses.
Boom!
Somewhere in the chaotic star gap, in the center of the battlefield, powerful energy ripples spread in all directions, wherever they went,
Spider web-like cracks formed.
But it was imprisoned by an extremely powerful force, and then reversed in an instant. Time and space seemed to flow backwards, energy was traced back, and everything fell silent.
“No fight!” Boiling mental fluctuations swept out, and a huge life form emerged like a hill,
The hair on his body is bright, and there are four huge horns on the top of his head, which are slowly shrinking at the moment.
“No wonder the empire would invite you. It turns out that you have advanced your time powers to the X level, integrating time and space.”
Barbarol looked ugly. Not far away from him, purple symbols gathered and turned into a smiling Anduin, wearing a purple robe.
“It’s just good luck,” Anduin responded, and then shook his head, “Barbarol, you don’t have to be so angry. There can’t be only ten people in the United Organization of Advanced Life Forms. Sooner or later, they will be open to join.”
“Of course I know.” Barbarol snorted, “But he is no longer one of the ten founders and has lost a lot of rights.
Moreover, among these ten people, is every one of them better than me? “
Anduin shook his head helplessly, “The empire has never said that invitations are based on strength.”
“What is that based on?” Barbarol frowned, “Since it is an advanced life form, regardless of strength, is it based on philosophical cognition?”
“You are indeed better than me, I admit it.” Barbarol said, turned around and left.
“Wait, where are you going?” Anduin frowned, and he was already at Barbarol’s side.
“I will go find those who are not as strong as me, defeat them, and take their place.” Barbarol said solemnly.
“Who told you that defeating them can replace them?” Anduin sighed, “You don’t understand. What the empire needs is someone who can speak for them and be on their side.”
“Even if you are stronger than some people, the empire does not think you are on the same side as them, and will not invite you.”
“No, of course I understand.” Barbarol said solemnly, “But I don’t believe that a loser can become the ten founders of the United Organization of Higher Life Forms, and the empire has the nerve to let him stay.”
“You—” Anduin looked at him in confusion, his face turned cold, “Who has been looking for you recently? The Federation? Or the Star Alliance? What did they promise you?”
“This has nothing to do with you.” Barbarol said expressionlessly, “Don’t try to stop me. You are stronger than me, but you are not to the point of crushing me.”
“Who are you going to find?” Anduin’s expression changed.
He said unceremoniously: “It has nothing to do with you.”
Anduin suddenly said: “Qinglong?”
Barbarol suddenly turned his head, “You also think I’m better than him?”
Anduin: “..——·
As expected, fusing multiple gene seeds won’t work. The muscles will control the brain.
His eyes flickered, “I’ll go with you.”
Barbarol was surprised, glanced at him, and said indifferently: “It’s up to you.”
“Finally back.”
After coming out of the star gate, the Mechanical Royal Court is right in front of you. Contact Suzaku immediately, take the special passage, skip the cumbersome identity verification, and land at the Mechanical Royal Court.
When Ulrich received the news, he rushed over as soon as possible, looked up and down, and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was nothing wrong with Li Ming.
He was full of meaning, “Your Excellency Li Ming, this situation happened because I didn’t manage Kaiina’s affairs well.”
“It’s not your fault.” Li Ming shook his head, and then asked someone to move a metal seat out of the dilapidated small spaceship he was riding in.
The surface is a deep black-purple color, with many complex symbols engraved on the seats, and there are copper-banning devices similar to those on the armrests.
【Truth Seat–S Class:
Control ability – Honesty: Any A-level or lower life form that sits on it will answer your questions truthfully. )
This is something Li Ming upgraded on the way here, just for checking out the spies.
At level A, the ability is not that powerful and can only be used in situations similar to hypnosis. Some specially trained undercover agents can still handle it.
After being born to S level, a qualitative change has indeed occurred. It is easy to check the memory, but this situation is very difficult to do, which is equivalent to a powerful superpower.
“The truth-telling chair, any lifeform that sits on it, A-level or below, will tell the truth.” Li Ming briefly introduced.
Ulrich’s expression changed immediately, and his eyes showed great fear.
“Take it to see if there are any other traitors.” Li Ming said.
Ulrich nodded hurriedly and had the chair moved away in a hurry, not even daring to touch it himself.
Li Ming thought for a while, then asked Suzaku to prepare a spaceship, and then asked Tanwei to put the black rune stone on the spaceship.
A few more mechanical bodies were left behind to control it, and they left the Mechanical Royal Court. I didn’t know what this thing was, but I felt a little uneasy if I kept it next to me, so I simply put it in the starry sky.
After dealing with all this, Li Ming returned to the core base. At the door of the room, he saw Robin. He seemed to be depressed, his hair was messy, as if he hadn’t woken up, “Don’t call me when you go out.”
Li Ming was too lazy to answer him and opened the door. Robin followed closely behind him and sighed, “Alas – ever since Ford went to the Sea of Stars to study, I can’t even find anyone to talk to.”
“We are developing gene seeds. Talking to someone will not increase the development progress.” Li Ming said casually.
Robin almost choked to death and said hesitantly: “I have an old friend who recently took on a mission that paid well and was quite dangerous. He invited me to help.”
Li Ming glanced at him and said, “It’s no secret that you are here with me.”
“A trap?” Robin was slightly stunned, “But I’m your friend.”
“It’s up to you. If you want to go, leave the butler behind.” Li Ming said faintly: “If it’s a trap, remember to hold on and don’t talk about it.”
“Well–forget it, let him go and have fun by himself.”
Li Ming’s words were creepy, Robin’s face was sullen, and he scratched his head and left.
Li Ming didn’t care. After closing the door, he logged into Qinglong’s account, entered the black hole network, and joined a group chat.
The next moment, fluorescent lights flickered all around, and two virtual projections emerged, which were Reynolds and Mikhail.
The virtual projections were the real bodies of the two. Reynolds was burly, muscular, purple-red skin, and four meters tall. He looked not much different from the forging master.
They were originally of the same race.
Mikhail was slender, but rather noble. He wore a platinum robe and had long and thin ears. He was a pure-blooded elf, which was extremely rare in the interstellar space.
However, the normally cold face now looked a little anxious and angry, with an ugly expression: “The situation is getting more and more tense. There have been casualties. The mechanics of a small civilization have even engaged in firepower confrontation with the ruling government.”
“What a bunch of idiots!”
“So fast?” Li Ming frowned, “It’s been less than a month.”
Mikhail said in a deep voice: “The bottom mechanics are much worse than I thought. That small civilization has not abolished the death penalty. According to the guilt of that mechanic, he will definitely die.”
“The next step should be condemnation and division.” Li Ming pondered: “What do you think is the possibility of achieving joint governance?”
Mikhail said helplessly: “The Mechanic Association has no moat. We can’t stop the interstellar pressure. Joint governance is already the best situation, but the possibility of achieving it is very small. We still have too few cards to play.”
“Do your best.” Li Ming shook his head. None of them thought that the Mechanic Association could withstand this wave.
The longer it drags on, the more he will get, and the less damage the two master craftsmen in front of him will suffer.
“Tell me, if the three of us join forces, can we reach the strength of the hammer?” Reynolds suddenly said, “How about we try to fight them and show them our strength.”
Fight?
Li Ming was speechless. How much interest did he have in the Mechanics Association? It was fine if everyone was just playing games in secret.
He wanted to drag him against the three major civilizations. Was Reynolds crazy?
If he really wanted to overturn the table, he would definitely be the first to run away.
