This is not mechanical ascension...

Chapter 359: Harvesting the Terrax Stone Dropped from the Sky by a Giant Cannon

"Fuck, they didn't kill me, right? I still need to absorb the gene source." Li Ming suddenly reacted. Fortunately, with the powerful vitality of the S-level life form, the life breath of these two people was still very strong.

The space here has been completely shattered by his rampage, and all that can be seen is a void storm.

The outside world was already bustling with activity, but in just four or five minutes, the void storm that had formed had already covered a quarter of the space of the Imperial Base.

The entire central world was aware of the terrifying battle fluctuations here.

Powerful auras rose from the bases of various forces, and everyone looked at them with concern, trying to figure out what was going on.

"We can't stay here for long, we have to leave quickly." Li Ming moved quickly, pulling up the two men, his expression slightly changed.

Suddenly, I discovered that not far away, the black stones that stood still in the void storm and emitted a special aura seemed to be echoing each other.

"Terrax Stone?" Li Ming's expression suddenly became interesting. "Or two pieces?"

He was a little confused and didn't know where this thing came from. It seemed to have extra resistance to void storms and stimulated some kind of power.

"It's even better if I pick it up for free." Li Ming didn't think much about it and just put it in his pocket.

His eyes were fixed not far away, on the huge black gun barrel that was more than four thousand meters long and had begun to creak and twist under the influence of the void storm.

The metal base could no longer hold up in the void storm, but the main body still persisted.

The figure flashed and appeared in front of the turret, with his palms pressed together.

[Dark Matter Disintegration Hammer - Special Type: A star-destroying cannon powered by dark matter.

Control conditions: 40 million metal energy
Control ability - Dark matter fission: After hitting the target, it will still cause fission damage, equivalent to artillery damage. 】

Forty million metal energies.

Li Ming frowned. This requirement was not low. He also had to control the [Dimension Shuttle Engine] to leave this area and find a place to absorb genetic essence.

However, when he came in, he had anticipated this situation and had already retrieved the main gun-level control objects on his body.

Those main guns were no longer of much use, and a total of just over 10 million metal energies were recovered.

Without hesitation, Li Ming took control immediately, and the huge artillery suddenly disappeared in front of Nicholas. Nicholas, who was still conscious, was stunned.

Then, Li Ming switched to the [Dimensional Shuttle Engine], and then stuffed Nicholas and half of Albert into the tank. Both of them were not big in stature and could barely fit in.

"Where is the operator?" Nicholas was completely confused, and his almost blurred consciousness suddenly became clear.

There is actually no operator in this mecha?
Could it be operated by artificial intelligence? How dare he?

Nicholas was even more incredulous, and could not help but feel despair, and gritted his teeth and said:
"No... You can't leave anyway. This mecha will expose your identity. If you dare to attack the empire's base, you... you..."

Li Ming ignored him, opened the energy barrier, isolated the void storm, and began to pull.

At the same time, several life forms emitting powerful auras were suspended above the central world, and their energy intensity was like that of young stars.

"What happened to the Xingyuan Empire?" The woman holding a white staff spoke. Her white robe fluttered gently in the wind, with fine and mysterious silver lines, flashing a faint light.

Her skin is fair and delicate, emitting a soft luster in the dim environment, revealing an innate dignity and majesty.

"It seems that there is a big mess. Prince Costat took his men away earlier, and now it seems that they have fallen into a trap..." another person spoke.

"Lord Deus, Lord Klaue, please...please take action..." Suddenly a figure flew over, speaking in a hurried tone. It was an A-level life form.

"Are there still people in the empire who don't know the rules so well?" The robe on Dius was split to his thighs, revealing his white thighs. His ears were pointed, and he had the characteristics of an elf.

Claw was covered in a blazing light. "Let us do it? Aren't you afraid that we will take the opportunity to do something else?"

The A-level life form who had come for help looked anxious, but at this moment he suddenly froze, and then broke out in a cold sweat.

"However, such a good show is not often seen." Dius changed his tone and moved his staff slightly.

In an instant, runes surged out from the sky, covering the sky, and then condensed near the void storm area, forming criss-crossing rune chains that tightly bound the void storm.

Then, after a flash of brilliant light, it finally disappeared into the void.

"I will temporarily block this space to prevent the void storm from spreading further..." Dius' tone was understated, but before he finished speaking, his pair of indifferent eyes suddenly focused, and layers of rune ripples appeared in them.

"What's wrong?" Crow noticed something was wrong and asked.

"Something has passed through the dimensional barrier..." Deus frowned, "The central area is in such a mess, how could there be a spaceship that can pass through the dimensional barrier?"

"Spaceship?" Upon hearing this, the A-level life form standing nearby said categorically: "That's impossible. That's the central area. There won't be any shuttle ships..."

Dius frowned and ignored him. He turned his staff slightly, and the invisible chain hidden in the void reappeared.

The central area seemed to be wiped out by an invisible force. The raging void storm began to subside and disappear until it completely disappeared without a trace, leaving only a ruin.

However, the A-level lifeform next to him turned pale and trembled, "Where is the Dark Matter Splitting Hammer!?"

That star-destroying cannon is gone?

Dius frowned, and strands of yellow symbols surged. In her eyes, a distorted clock-like pattern vaguely emerged and reversed.

"I can't see it..." Dius whispered, "The space is broken, causing the regional time to collapse. Trouble..."

"It's over, it's over, Grand Duke Blood..." The A-level life form not far away felt like it was falling into an icy cave.

……

At the same time, in another dimensional world, it is desolate and not composed of a pure single element.

This dimensional world is the prototype of the multi-dimensional world and may become a special dimensional space similar to the main universe environment.

"Why hasn't he come yet..." Jiaint frowned slightly, looking irritable and uneasy.

"It's been less than a day, be patient." Diaz said indifferently.

Prince Costat had a blank expression on his face. Gaint thought, "Your Highness, when we start fighting later, should we hold back?"

"Hold back?" Diaz frowned. "You have to hold back when ambushing someone? Even if you don't consider him as an imaginary enemy, he's not a friend, right?"

"Qinglong is of great value." Prince Costat said indifferently: "His background, his methods, and even the information he possesses are all very important."

"What information do you have?" Gaint was puzzled.

Costat said in a deep voice: "Sathoggua reported some intelligence. Combined with the information we have previously obtained, we can confirm that there is indeed a secret organization that is secretly planning something to undermine the interests of the empire."

The two reacted calmly. They had heard about it to some extent. Gaint even sneered: "A bunch of wishful thinking people. There must be at least eight or nine such organizations in the history of the empire."

"The once most glorious 'old days'? Wasn't it destroyed? Didn't the Holy Mother Church, which spread its web across the entire empire like a spider, also leave in disgrace?"

"The Holy Revolutionary Army doesn't even dare to set foot in the imperial area. This organization is nothing but a clown." "It's different this time." Prince Costat looked around at the two of them, his eyes filled with a deep gaze that made people shudder.

"This time, there are members of the empire involved, and they are high-ranking members. It can be confirmed that they are not trying to use the other party to achieve some goals, but they really want to dismember the empire."

Gaint and Diaz's hearts skipped a beat; they really didn't know the news.

Jiaint said in a deep voice: "Someone is so shameless. What can they gain by dismembering the empire?"

As a member of the royal family, Gaint has a deep sense of belonging to the empire, and many royal family members believe that the empire belongs to them.

Diaz pondered and said, "Are you suspecting that Qinglong belongs to that secret organization?"

"He is indeed a mysterious guy with an unknown origin, endless tricks and a very similar background." Prince Costat said, but then said: "However, if he is really sent by the other party, his identity and background information should be very complete."

"You'll understand once we catch him," Gaint said coldly.

Diaz was helpless. Although these two people spoke nicely, they actually still regarded Qinglong as an imaginary enemy. As a result, they used this excuse to exclude Nicolás.

As he was thinking about it, Prince Costat's heart moved slightly, and he showed his wrist. The bracelet-like smart terminal was vibrating constantly and flashing red light.

"Red alert?" Costat frowned and quickly answered the call. On the screen that popped up, a life form in an officer's uniform looked pale: "Dear, Your Highness..."

His throat rolled and trembled with fear. Cainte tried to scold him, but Diaz frowned.

"…The Imperial base was just attacked by unknown forces, and suffered heavy losses."

"What!?"

Prince Costat's pupils suddenly shrank, and then an unimaginable aura burst out from his body.

The entire dimensional world seemed to be crumbling, the ground collapsed, there was a roar, the void was distorted, the pop-up screen was crackling, and the signal was interfered with.

Diaci became increasingly uneasy and asked directly, "Where's Nicolael?"

"Grand Duke Nicholas and His Excellency Albert are currently missing."

“Missing!?” Diaz’s heart sank to the bottom.

"Who is the attacker?" Jiaint asked, "What is his strength?"

"The specific details are still being investigated. We have no idea who the attacker is. In addition..." He hesitated and said, "The Dark Matter Splitting Hammer has disappeared..."

"What do you mean disappeared?" Gaint stared at him coldly.

The officer lowered his head and said, "It just disappeared out of thin air. The battle area was covered by a void storm at the time. No one knows what happened exactly."

"Lure the tiger away from the mountain..." Prince Costat's eyes were dim.

"You mean Qinglong did it?" Jiaint's expression was slightly shocked.

Prince Costat said in a cold voice: "It's hard to say. How did he know that Nicholas would stay?"

Gaint and Diaz felt a chill in their hearts, and no one spoke.

"Let's go back first. We can't expect anything here." Prince Costat had a blank expression on his face. The warships hidden in several areas quickly gathered together.

Buzz--
Prince Costat was about to board the cabin door when he suddenly looked up with a flickering look in his eyes.

Ripples appeared in space as a figure suddenly rushed in, emitting an aura that could not be underestimated.

"Traveling through dimensional barriers in the physical body?" Prince Costat's eyes gleamed.

……

At the same time, Li Ming was constantly shuttling back and forth between dimensional worlds, pulling multiple times without stopping for a moment.

It was not until more than an hour later, when he had traveled through more than ten dimensional worlds, that he stopped.

Throw Albert and Nicholas out of the tank.

Albert's body was still twitching slightly, but his life force was almost gone.

The impact of losing the head is still huge, but during the traction process, Li Ming has absorbed all the genetic essence in his body.

Nicholas is still tenacious, not only because his development progress is far beyond Albert, but also because with the existence of the head, he will involuntarily mobilize cellular energy to maintain vitality and even repair himself.

The one-eyed man stared at the mecha in front of him. The other party just pulled him and did not make any other moves.

"You... are so brave. You lure the tiger away from the mountain and dare to directly attack the imperial base!" Nicholas shouted at the top of his lungs, becoming more confident.

Since the mecha did not kill him on the spot, it must be because he had other uses, or it was afraid of the Xingyuan Empire and did not dare to really kill him.

So he was very patient and waited for this guy to speak first.

Aristocratic politicians trained by the imperial elite are now online.

But what surprised him was that he had to wait for a long time before a sound came from the mecha.

"It's just that a son died, why do you keep chasing me?"

He wasn't deliberately provoking Nicholas. Is a son really that precious in the eyes of such a great imperial noble?

"You... took my things, things from the ruins of the Ascendant civilization." Nicolael's voice was hoarse, "Also, who told you that the imperial nobles don't care about their sons."

"Uh..." Li Ming paused and shrugged: "Okay, I misunderstood."

Nicholas stared at him, and suddenly became depressed. "I understand. After you let me go, I won't chase you."

"I will let bygones be bygones."

"What do you understand?" Li Ming was a little confused. "Let bygones be bygones? Do you think I will let you go?"

"Otherwise, why did you bring me here?" Nicholas asked.

Li Ming was helpless, "Why does everyone misunderstand?"

Nicholas felt something was wrong. His eyes went dark and his pupils suddenly contracted. The metal arm smashed down fiercely. This dimensional world composed of ice crystals trembled and huge cracks spread all around.

Li Ming shook his head. Aidas and Nicholas both had the same strange thought: "If this person doesn't kill me, he must have some other intention." It's not their fault, because absorbing the genetic essence takes time.

Prince Costa has already ambushed him, and it would be too frustrating if he still hesitated to kill someone here.

Of course, this was not an impulsive murder, and he knew how to deal with it afterwards.

After dealing with the two bodies, he looked around and began to teleport again.
