This is not mechanical ascension...

Chapter 38 Large-scale bounty for upgrading detection devices

The entire floor fell into silence and everyone looked up.

Lao Dao, who was checking the information, walked quickly to Sun Changxing, looked at the virtual screen with a frown.

"If that's the case, we're in big trouble..."

"A bounty of one million..." Lao Diao looked tense, glanced at Li Ming, whose breathing was a little rapid, and explained:
"You know the black hole network, it's..."

"…To post a bounty on it, you must first pay a deposit equal to the bounty amount. That's three million star coins. You must be very wealthy…"

"Isn't this a good thing? These three guys are not good people." Li Ning asked doubtfully. Lao Diao glanced at him and said angrily, "How can you ask such a stupid question? Look, Li Ming didn't even ask it."

Li Ning: “…”

"These three old guys are all E-level life forms. They have accumulated a lot of experience over the years and are fully equipped with all kinds of auxiliary equipment. Their lair is like a fortress. How many people in Silver Ash City do you think are sure to kill them?"

"Uh..." Li Ning was at a loss: "If there is no such thing, why do we need it..."

"A bounty hunter roaming among the stars..." Li Ming uttered.

"Yes, it's the interstellar bounty hunter." Lao Dao walked over, his brows furrowed, and his already stiff face looked even more like a fossil:
"The purpose of the person who posted the bounty was not to kill these three people, but to attract many bounty hunters."

On a small planet, a high bounty would only turn into a carnival for bounty hunters."

The Silver-Ash Star is just interstellar dust, it has no aerospace shield, and bounty hunters can come and go as they please.

"There's going to be a big mess..." Lao Dao sighed.

These guys are ruthless enough to use themselves as bait. Offering a bounty to the top leaders of Silver-Gray Star will attract the attention of Blue Star civilization.

But if there were only three gang leaders, Blue Star would naturally ignore them.

Could it be related to the fact that I killed Scarface Tiger? Li Ming pondered, maybe it really was the fuse that ignited this mess.

The appearance of a high reward caused an uproar in the City Guard Department, and the top brass held an emergency meeting.

Because of this mess, no one left work until dawn.

Li Ning yawned. Although he felt a little sleepy, his physical fitness was beyond ordinary people, so he could still hold on.

"Fuck! The senior executives held a meeting all night and didn't come up with a charter, but they just asked us to strengthen the airport inspection." He complained and dragged Li Ming to have breakfast.

"Our Silver Grey Planet is a small place, and we don't have an air-space shield. Those bounty hunters can land anywhere. How can we check them?"

"The superiors have given the order, so let's just do it." Li Ming shrugged.

Li Ning glanced at him suspiciously: "Why do you seem not too worried, but rather quite excited?"

"I stayed up all night..."

When they came back from dinner, the tired crowd had already started to get busy again. Lao Diao, who was passing by, pulled Li Ning over and cursed:
"Md, the people from the Rose Society rushed into a bar in broad daylight and started fighting on the spot. Someone even filmed a video and it went viral."

"Haven't they entered the inner city for several years?" Li Ning was surprised.

"Who the hell knows, these guys are tired of living!" Lao Diao gritted his teeth. A large team has been dispatched, and they will make the Rose Society give an explanation.

The video plays and the scene seems to be in a bar. It is very noisy with constant groans and cheers.

Li Ning's eyes widened. "Is this the way you do it?"

"Don't ignore it. This matter has a huge impact. It has already gone beyond Silver Grey Star and has been discussed in several entertainment forums."

Lao Diao gritted his teeth and said, "Compared to hurting or killing people, this kind of thing actually attracts more attention!"

.........

"Who did that to the Xionghu Gang?" Qin Xiao said in a deep voice in the small room, "Are you so impatient?"

"I've already told you to take it slow. First appease them and don't let them get defensive." "Do you really think you can do anything? You can suppress everything with a wave of your hand. You want to intimidate? You intimidated a shit!"

"They are so bold that they even want to overturn the table." Someone said coldly.

"So what can you do? Do you think you are just a freeloader for Xingchuang Company?"

The several black projections on the round table were silent.

"If you don't want to die, don't act rashly next time!" Qin Xiao gritted his teeth.

What a bunch of stupid teammates, don't they understand the principle of boiling a frog in warm water? Cutting the meat with a big knife will only provoke strong resistance!

Hey!
.........

After lunch, they finally got off work and asked some people to go back first, and then replace the other group after they had rested.

After more than a day, Li Ming finally returned home and couldn't wait to open the Black Hole Network - the bounty section - the current area.

As expected, there were several million-level bounties hanging high at the top, and now there were a lot more, ranging from ten thousand to one hundred thousand for the leaders of the three major gangs.

Even red roses were among them, worth eighty thousand star coins.

At the same time, there was a small red dot in the message bar, indicating that Red Rose had sent him a message seven or eight hours ago.

"How much do you know about Scarface Tiger?"

Li Ming thought for a moment and asked, "What happened to your Rose Club today?"

After waiting for a while, Red Rose responded, "The boss ordered us to give Silver Ash City a special shock. The effect is good, isn't it?"

The three Black Gloves on the periphery are really going to flip the table - since you want to eliminate us, don't blame us for disrupting the entire Silver Ash City and bringing down everyone!
"Are there any other follow-up actions?" Li Ming asked.

"It's your turn to move, little brother."

"The city guards suspected that it was the man who killed Pang Wenlong before."

"The three major gangs will unite, and SilverAsh City will be in chaos. Take care of yourself, little brother." Followed by a flying kiss.

Li Ming shook his head and looked back at the bounty page, becoming more thoughtful. Those star coins were all there, waiting for him to take them.

"Don't worry, it will take some time for the interstellar bounty hunters to arrive." Li Ming calmed down.

Now is not the time to act. The robotic arm cannot be used openly, otherwise it will become a target of public criticism. Try to wait until chaos breaks out and then fish in troubled waters.

Let's improve my strength first, he thought. In the short term, I can't touch D-level items, so I can only start with gene seeds for the time being.

After crossing the 30% threshold, the development speed slowed down a lot.

Li Ming took out the testing equipment and prepared to upgrade it to E-level to increase the development speed, and then cooperate with the development of medicines.

It should be able to reach 90% soon. If lightning can be stimulated, the strength will definitely reach a new level.

For example, the gene seed of the Fierce Tiger Gang - the Fiercetooth Tiger, which increases speed and strength, is completely incomparable to the power of elements.

He is now very rich, so 300 points of metal energy are consumed directly.

[VK-2 Genetic Testing Device - Class E: An advanced and enhanced version of the genetic testing device with a smaller error.

……

Control effect: Development speed boost - 60%
Control ability--potential enhancement: 120% development speed]

The basic blessing is 60%, the ability blessing is 120%, which adds up to nearly double the blessing!
