This is not mechanical ascension...

Chapter 541: Video shock from Red River Star Stream
"What about you?" Reynolds looked at the others again.

Gustav's eyes flickered as he said, "Mechanical transformation is a very standardized path of evolution, and the life form itself has made great sacrifices, so it is naturally qualified."

What on earth is this guy doing?
Mikhail didn't know why Reynolds wanted this guarantee, and he felt something was wrong.

"Then I have no problem." Reynolds was satisfied.

Everyone was just confused. The upper limit of mechanical transformation bodies was well known to be low. Restricted by the technological limits of many disciplines, they were unable to embark on the ultimate path.

Even if Qinglong's skills are strong, they can't be ridiculously strong. In the past, Qinglong's fighting method was to rely on other mechanical bodies to assist in combat.

Apart from other mechanical bodies, its own strength should not be very high.

Yalta frowned and continued, "When will Qinglong come? He won't use this method to avoid the challenge, right?"

"Arrogant..." Anduin felt unhappy.

Reynolds raised his eyebrows, but sneered a few times.

"What... do you want to do?" Mikhail was still worried. A glimpse of Reynolds' sneer made him even more uneasy, and they communicated secretly.

"Nothing." Reynolds still denied it. No matter how Mikhail asked, he no longer responded.

"That's enough. There will be plenty of opportunities to meet His Excellency Qinglong in the future." Gustav interrupted, "I haven't read the video congratulatory letters from Saint Emperor Adam, President Malcolm, and Chairman Gutierrez yet."

After saying this, Arta's expression calmed down. "Yes, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Your Excellency Qinglong can't always be "busy."

Gustav turned aside, the surrounding light was dim, and on the giant screen behind him, light and shadow flickered. The first to appear was Saint Emperor Adam with a gentle smile -
"All the higher life forms united to form..."

"That means Lord Qinglong's challenge has not been scheduled?" Someone whispered below, "When the time comes, I will challenge him too..."

"Idiot..." Someone sneered, "Alta is qualified to fight Yin Yang Azure Dragon because he has the support of the Star Alliance. Who do you think you are? The use of mechanical bodies is not allowed in the challenge of the board of directors, but there is no rule that prohibits the use of mechanical bodies in front of your house."

The other party retorted: "Who humiliated him? I just took this opportunity to fight. It's rare to encounter such an opportunity, and there is no danger to life."

"If we win, we can sit on the board of directors for half a day."

There's nothing interesting about this kind of video. It's basically just a formality. Everyone is still discussing what just happened, with different thoughts in their minds.

At this moment, the screen in front of him suddenly became blurry, and Adam's face with a gentle smile gradually stretched and became abstract, and his voice also became strange.

Finally, the screen went completely dark.

"What is this?" Everyone was stunned. Something went wrong.

Even such a big thing could go wrong. The quality of the employees of the Interstellar Alliance is getting worse and worse.

No one paid much attention to it, but the staff next to them was already sweating profusely, fiddling with the smart terminal in their hands, but found that it didn't work at all.

"…We are in trouble. I am afraid it will be hard for us to leave here…" A voice suddenly sounded from the dark screen.

Mikhail's expression moved slightly, and then his mechanical pupils contracted violently. This sound wave match was his voice!
“…Who would have thought that this place would…”

And with another deep voice, the dark screen gradually lit up.

The owner of the video seems to be standing in front of the porthole, looking out through the porthole, and sees a sea that looks like black oil.

The surrounding void was raging with a boiling storm, with all kinds of energy fluids running through it.

"This voice seems familiar..." Anatoly frowned, his eyes fell on Mikhail, whose face changed drastically, and Reynolds, who looked a little proud.

"Why does this scene look like the depths of the Red River Star Stream..." Anduin looked surprised, and then shocked. Could it be...

He had been deep into that place before, so he naturally felt familiar with it.

Everyone was puzzled and stared at the screen in front of them. As their vision shifted, they actually saw a fleet maintaining stability in the void.

"The symbols of the Empire and the Federation, could this be... that thing?" Knox's heart moved slightly, and he realized something in an instant.

"This...could it be the Red River Star Stream?"

The hall was buzzing with activity. All those present were X-level life forms, and they had heard a little about the major event that had occurred in the Red River Star Stream some time ago.

Moreover, this major event has been affecting the interstellar situation in secret. The several battles and even the Star Alliance's attack on Qinglong's students all seem to be related to this incident.

It’s not that no one is curious about this, but they have found nothing.

“Who’s playing it!?”

Suddenly, an angry shout came from the X-class life form of the empire, with an ugly look on his face: "Stop!"

"Stop!" The people from the Federation also echoed and took a step forward together.

But before his aura could burst out, it was suppressed by an even deeper and more terrifying energy.

"Let me see who dares to move." Gustav's eyes were fixed on the screen, but no one dared to ignore the terrifying aura emanating from his body.

The three people from the Star Alliance have already stood in front of the six people from the Federation and the Empire.

Although they seemed to be in the same camp, they suddenly turned against each other.

The people from the Empire and the Federation looked extremely unhappy.

However, Mikhail was relieved at this moment. The video being played had obviously been edited and did not include the body.

But even so, the energy power in his body almost exceeded the load, and he immediately established a link with Reynolds, and angrily shouted with a gritting tone: "Idiot, what are you doing!"

"What for?" Reynolds's pride was definitely not a disguise. "Of course, we want to let the three major civilizations know that we are not at the mercy of others. Of course, we can also help Qinglong and kill two birds with one stone."

"Kill two birds with one stone?" Mikhail was so angry that he almost fainted.

This Reynolds really holds a grudge.

"Don't worry, I've already edited it and completely erased the existence of the body. It's impossible for anyone to restore it." Reynolds comforted Mikhail when he saw how angry he was.

"Why didn't you discuss such a big thing with me?" Mikhail suppressed his anger.

"Why should I discuss this with you? Are we on good terms?" Reynolds asked curiously:

"The Empire and the Federation have already exposed our weakness. We are just making our stance clear, not tearing each other apart. They won't start a war just because of this video, right?"

For a moment, Mikhail was speechless. What Reynolds said certainly made sense.

The outside world has long speculated about what happened in the Red River Star Stream to a certain extent, and this information is nothing more than verification.

But it will bring a lot of risks after all, why do it?

"Tandin!" A surprised shout came from the crowd, and everyone present looked at the man who appeared on the screen with serious expressions.

Everyone is familiar with this Sword of the Empire.

A true top-level combat force, with the blood of many X-level life forms on his hands.

The compelling aura seemed to be transmitted through the screen.

"It turns out that the people recording the video seem to be Reynolds and Mikhail. They should have encountered the Empire and the Federation deep in the Red River Star Stream..."

"I guess they may have uncovered some secret. The Empire and the Federation will not let them leave easily."

Everyone present was very quick-witted. With just a few scenes combined with the known information, they were able to deduce what happened in the video.

The scene changes, and Alves in the distance is also shown in close-up, looking calmly.

"Not only Tandin, but also Alvis. The two strongest forces of the Empire and the Federation have joined forces. Something extraordinary has really happened in the depths of the Red River Star Stream." "Can Tandin and Alvis join forces to get these two out safely?"

He cast a hidden look at Reynolds and Mikhail with surprise and confusion.

“…I hope he really has a way…” Reynolds’ voice sounded outside the screen.

"Who?" Everyone was confused at first, and only some people with extremely sharp minds vaguely guessed something.

This video edited out a lot of key information and only had scattered sounds and scenes.

Then, Tandin attacked violently, and his mighty power was terrifying.

But soon, under the gaze of everyone present, a golden light suddenly appeared, and then covered the entire screen. In the blurred scene, they could only see Tandin's look of doubt.

His figure became smaller and smaller, and Alves's expression in the distance gradually became solemn and fearful.

what happened?

Everyone's attention was attracted by the scene in the picture.

Immediately following this was an extremely high-pitched roar from an unknown creature.

boom!
A thick green tail swung out from outside the screen and forcibly knocked away Tandin's means of attack.

"This is…"

Everyone was stunned, as they saw the scene in the picture extending infinitely, as if their vision was being pulled away.

A giant blue metal dragon of unknown length appeared on the screen, its head held high, its pupils staring coldly at the enemy in front of it.

Qinglong!

The numerous X-level life forms present were all staring in astonishment and horror.

Even they could see clearly the obvious fear on Tandin and Alvis's faces.

It even offset Tandin's attack with just one tail. This kind of strength is simply unbelievable.

Suddenly, the scene in the picture stopped and fell into darkness.

Everyone was stunned, and then looked at Reynolds and Mikhail.

"The ensuing battle was too intense to record..." Reynolds admitted frankly, vaguely.

Everyone's face changed, but they were full of thoughts. Since Tandin took action at the first moment, he must have wanted to keep Qinglong and the other two.

But now, the three master craftsmen of Qinglong are still active in the interstellar space, which means that the ideas of the Empire and the Federation have failed.

With Tandin and Alves here, the final result of this battle will at least be a draw.

Realizing this, everyone couldn't help but gasp. Qinglong was actually so strong.

Gustav lowered his head. No wonder the Empire and the Federation had such strange attitudes towards Qinglong. It turned out to be because of this incident.

Is that the true form of Azure Dragon?

Anatoly frowned. The video had too many edits and very little useful information.

No one knows what they encountered exactly, but what was most revealed was Qinglong's strength.

Knox and Altahr looked at each other, both of them looking unhappy. Qinglong's trouble had reached a tricky level.

No wonder when the seats were divided, neither the Empire nor the Federation was willing to choose Qinglong.

Only the Star Alliance, who knew nothing, accepted it.

But the good news is that we finally know what happened in the Red River Star Stream. After all, we have the on-site video. Even if the most critical information is missing, we can still infer a lot of information.

Because of the sudden appearance of the video, the field fell into silence. No one suspected that the video was fake, and no one dared to arbitrarily make up stories about Tandin and Alves.

Anduin's expression changed, and then he smiled with relief. No wonder Qinglong was so indifferent.

"Does anyone still think Qinglong is hiding?" Reynolds said lightly. Looking at the silent expressions of this group of people, he felt happy in his heart.

Mikhail was helpless. Intimidation by strength was naturally the simplest and most brutal method.

Reynolds skipped the fusion process of the Mechanical Holy Spirit and directly presented the complete form, which was considered a little trick.

In fact, it doesn’t matter. Even if Qinglong merged beforehand and then went to fight, who can tell?
This kind of deterrence is not only about challenging for the board seat, but also about pure strength, which can shut everyone up.

Although many of Qinglong's deeds are mysterious, there are no confirmed high-end combat achievements. This time, they are made up.

But... I'm afraid Qinglong himself doesn't know yet?
Thinking of this, Mikhail glanced at Reynolds again. This idiot...

……

At the same time, the Mechanical Court.

In Tiangong's exclusive warehouse, Li Ming retracted his fingers. The piles of metal materials that had been piled up not long ago had already been absorbed by him.

The metal energy balance of the control page has reached a terrifying 5.2 billion.

"Finally, I can repair the Infinite Hammer." He couldn't help rubbing his hands.

A lot of metal energy was consumed in the manufacture and experimentation of various control objects some time ago.

Logically speaking, in two months, the amount accumulated should be far less than this.

However, he deliberately adjusted the share of the Mechanical Royal Court in purchasing metal energy, reducing the number of mechanical bodies manufactured, and the amount of metal energy accumulated each month reached 600 million.

He was looking forward to it so much that he even postponed the initiation ceremony of the United Organization of Higher Life Forms.

Who could have made such a coincidence that the ceremony was held at the time when he was preparing to repair the Infinite Hammer?

It's not a big deal over there. Wait until it's repaired. If it's not finished yet, it won't be too late to go there.

As he thought to himself, the infinite hammer that had already materialized in his hand was still strangely heavy.

With the multiple blessings, he could only pick it up normally now, and it still took some effort to swing it.

Without hesitation, five billion metal energies surged into it.

In an instant, the spider-web-like cracks on the surface of the Infinite Hammer were filled with golden matter, and the dazzling light covered the entire hammer head and was gradually erased.

The sound of mechanical reorganization could be heard from inside the hammer handle, and some internal cracks and damage were also being repaired.

[Infinite Heavy Hammer--Second-level: A treasure made by the hammer master.

……

Control Effect: Infinite Power

Control Ability - Star-Shaking Hammer: Materialize the controlled object. When holding it, you can double your own strength.

Control ability - Giant God's Strike: Consume all your physical strength to deliver a strike with five times your own strength. 】

[Infinite Power: Gain 200 times the power. When you hit the enemy with the infinite hammer, there will be no reaction force.]

A gleam of light suddenly flashed in Li Ming's eyes.
