This is not mechanical ascension...

Chapter 10 Initial Funding
"This is…"

Whoosh!
There was a whistling sound of breaking wind, and three other robotic arms attacked from both sides. The surrounding environment was so dim that Ma Wu did not notice the robotic arms behind Li Ming at first.

puff!

His arm was pierced directly by the drill, and he let out a shrill roar. The cross clamps at the front of the other two mechanical arms locked one of his legs. Then Li Ming exerted force from behind, and the whole person jumped up like a spider, taking Ma Wu with him.

The process went smoothly. A few people at the entrance of the alley stopped and looked inside with puzzled expressions, but the dark alley prevented them from seeing anything and they were soon attracted by the woman who was soliciting customers.

On the rooftop, Ma Wu, who had been confident of victory during the day, was now lying on the ground like a dead dog, his chest heaving violently, and his body covered in a pool of blood.

Only half of his arms were left, and the severe pain made his face pale, but the metal saw blade that was so close and kept rotating and buzzing made him dare not make any sound.

He was more patient than Wang Bo, and spoke reluctantly: "Who are you, the Wild Dog Gang? Or the Blood Rose? We have kept to ourselves for a long time, do you want to start a war?"

These two names represent two other lower-level forces in Silver Gray City that are in constant conflict with the Fierce Tiger Gang.

Li Ming took out the smart terminal and personal belongings from his body. There were 900 star coins and a short metal blade in his wallet.

[Kor's Dagger: A dagger with no special features, made of forged steel.

Control conditions: 2 points of metal energy.

Control Effect: Close Combat - Beginner
Control ability - Stab: Quick attack, increase speed by 20%. 】

This close combat is quite interesting, Li Ming took a look.

His attack was too fast and Ma Wu had no chance to take out the thing.

"How many people know about Li Changhai's affairs?" Li Ming asked.

"You..." Hearing these words, Ma Wu's pupils suddenly shrank, and he stared blankly at the cloth man. Coupled with the slightly familiar voice, an unbelievable idea emerged in his mind.

"It's you!?" Apart from Li Ming, he really couldn't think of anyone else who would know about this.

However, he couldn't believe the opponent's terrifying strength, and the robotic arm could not be integrated into the human body without high-tech mechanical transformation technology.

"Damn Wang Bo, you killed him!" He cursed in his heart. Could the guy in front of him be the one who was bullied by Wang Bo and expelled from school?

The ruthlessness and decisiveness of the attack was so ruthless that even he felt ashamed of himself.

"I'm asking you a question." Li Ming squatted down and stepped on Ma Wu's wound. "If you dare to make any sound, I will cut your flesh piece by piece. Each piece will be no thicker than one millimeter."

Ma Wu's temples throbbed with pain, veins popped out, and he clenched his teeth, "Many people know about this. Let me go, I can help you keep it secret."

"Many people know?" Li Ming narrowed his eyes. "Who are they? What's their last name, their name, where they live, and their identities? Please tell me clearly."

Ma Wu's face froze. Li Ming's feet were exerting force, and the pain made it almost impossible for him to think.

Li Ming followed up with a question: "Since many people know about this, do we have to divide the money I gave you? How should we divide it? What is each person's share? How much should you take?"

"Who made this plan? Where? What time?"

Ma Wu's pupils were bloodshot, and his mouth opened and closed, but he couldn't speak.

"It seems that not many people know about it." Li Ming loosened his feet. Ma Wu gasped for breath and looked at Li Ming as if he was looking at a devil. The fear in his heart reached its peak.

Almost no one knew about it, and he only found out about it by accident. But if he answered truthfully, he would surely be killed to silence him.

However, Li Ming's difficulty was beyond his imagination. Under the severe pain, it was almost impossible for him to come up with a perfect logical loop.

"Let me go, let me go..." he begged. Seeing Li Ming raise his foot again, his eyes were almost filled with despair.

"Do you want to die in extreme pain, or with your eyes closed and open again?" Li Ming asked slowly: "Li Changhai, how did you die?" Soon, Li Ming cleaned Ma Wu out, decisively cut his neck, and smashed his head.

"It really wasn't them?" Li Ming frowned. Ma Wu proved that the Xionghu Gang knew nothing about Li Changhai's death and simply thought that he was hit by a car.

But Li Ming knew that this was simply impossible. The only answer was that the secret Li Changhai carried led to his death.

The reason why Ma Wu knew about this was because the agency that Li Changhai handled at the time had a relative of this guy. When they were drinking a few days ago, they talked more and more about this matter.

The other party didn't care at all, but Ma Wu took it to heart.

"They won't wipe out the entire family, right?" Li Ming worried, but then he shook his head. If they wanted to take action, they would have done it long ago. The only way it would be possible is if he touched something he shouldn't have touched and was discovered by the other party.

Let's put this matter aside for now. Ma Wu still has more than 10,000 star coins in his star network. It is definitely impossible to transfer this money out openly.

However, Li Ming has just asked clearly that there is another method - black hole network.

That is the dark side of StarNet, where many illegal transactions are conducted. Due to its special nature, it is not afraid of investigation at all. As long as you know the URL, you can register without using your real name.

After closing the webpage, all traces will disappear without a trace.

Over the years, the credibility of the Black Hole Network has been as solid as the Star Network.

He opened Ma Wu's smart terminal and entered a series of URLs. He was soon redirected to a web page filled with a bloody atmosphere. Following the prompts, he quickly registered an account.

Ma Wu's money was first transferred to his own Black Hole Network account, and then transferred to Li Ming's account. The whole process took no more than two seconds.

However, it is easy to transfer money in but difficult to transfer money out. Supervisory agencies can easily find the source of the money through tracing. If you want to launder the money from the black hole network, you must pay a 40% handling fee.

At the same time, even if the items sold in the black hole network are not illegal, their prices are much higher than the market price, not to mention the illegal items.

He simply searched through the shelves and found that there were so many goods, including various weapons, addictive substances, gene seeds, and even interstellar races.

It also supports issuing rewards, but he cannot enter the reward section for the time being. Bounty hunters are recommended to register.

"There are a lot of metal materials. I'll study them when I get back..."

What’s interesting is that he found some interesting conversation messages in Ma Wu’s Black Hole Network account…

"Receiving goods...human smuggling...delivering goods..." Li Ming's eyes flashed and he wrote down the relevant information.

Wang Bo’s two thousand were also not spared. After cleaning up, they made sure that no obvious traces were left.

"It's time to go back."

The night raid was a complete success.

Li Ming returned along the same route and arrived home before dawn. He threw all the clothes he wore that day into the high-temperature furnace and turned them into ashes.

Li Changhai often rubs parts with his hands, so naturally he would have this kind of thing.

After using various abilities repeatedly and traveling for a long time, he felt dizzy. After inserting the security chip, he lay on the bed in a daze.

It was not until morning, when it was just dawn, that he was awakened by Xiao Huang's voice.

"Master, Yang Boming is knocking on the door."

"Is Old Yang back?" Li Ming rubbed his temples, looked at Old Yang's anxious face on the screen, then got up and opened the door.
