This is not mechanical ascension...

Chapter 550: Glorious Dynasty
My own combat characteristics are quite obvious, especially the infinite hammer. Just one glance at it and you can almost associate it with yourself.

There is no other way around this. Without using the infinite hammer, the strength will be cut in half.

Thinking of this, Li Ming decided to learn more about the so-called Dark Prison Giant.

As for understanding the channels, they are right in front of you.

Li Ming returned to the Holy Castle and stood in front of the twelve-sided prism. With a wave of his hands, a dense network of light paths was interwoven, generating a holographic projection at the end.

I just took a quick look at it before and didn't read it in detail.

The virtual projection was covered with Titan text. I hadn’t noticed anything when I had taken a quick look at it before, but now that I was reading it word by word, I suddenly felt a little blocked.

He knew most of the words, but that small part was deadly.

However, with the Supervisor right beside him, it wasn't a big problem.

After a few hours, he had memorized the rest of the text, enough to read it fluently.

"...the Hell Giants, whose maternal line can be traced back to the Ender Giants..."

There are a large number of graphic scenes surrounding it, and even extremely detailed analytical diagrams.

The so-called Ender Giant is a dimensional creature. Although its skin is dark, it is slender and graceful. It is extremely rare and can only be born in a special dimensional world.

The first generation product was not yet a Dark Hell Giant, and the characteristics of the Titan were still relatively obvious. It was only after years of iteration that stable racial characteristics gradually formed.

The birth of each Titan branch does not happen overnight. Most Titans do not have cross-species aesthetics and rarely give birth to offspring with other races.

But there are always some guys with special tastes, as well as various experimental subjects. Over time, the number of Titan branches increases.

"…its evolutionary limit stops at Sub-Ultimate, and its potential far exceeds that of most Titan branches…"

The relevant research data and information are very clear. Li Ming estimated that the Titans must have conducted a lot of experiments on the Dark Prison Giants.

"No wonder he was killed..." Li Ming muttered, and then thought of the so-called "exile mark" of the Supervisor, so he looked up relevant information.

It was discovered that this was an extremely harsh punishment, called "Genetic Sin Scar". In Titan law, only very few crimes would be subject to this punishment.

The so-called "betrayal" by the Supervisor is just a general term. It should be more accurately described as a conspiracy to overthrow the rule of the Titans, which is "treason."

The leader will naturally be killed, and the "sin mark" will be engraved on a large scale among his race. This is a trace that will be attached to genetic inheritance and form iconic patterns on their body surface.

A race with a Sin Mark has lost all rights in the Titan Era and can be killed, sold, or insulted at will...

After reading it, Li Ming couldn't help but be shocked. It was so cruel to implicate an entire race.

Of course, this kind of deterrence was very terrifying in the Titan era, but in the current interstellar era, no one remembers it.

If this news gets out, it might trigger a wave of criticism against Titan.

The Supervisor seemed very dissatisfied with the Dark Prison Giant's rebellion, but Li Ming did not feel any waves in his heart.

According to these data, in the Titan era, the status of the Titan branches was not high, equivalent to vassals, and their treatment was unlikely to be good.

He has no filter towards the Titans, and he won't automatically put himself in the shoes of those Titans.

It is obviously impossible to have such detailed records of the information before us without conducting a large number of experiments.

If someone wants to study him, he will hit them with a hammer.

He was thinking about it in his mind, but he had no interest in the oppression that the group of dark prison giants had suffered.

After roughly figuring it out, he was ready to put away the twelve prisms, but his heart suddenly moved and he remembered something.

"It's a good opportunity to check that thing..."

He pulled a search bar out of a prism and wrote "Trinity" in Titanic.

brush--
Instantly, a large amount of virtual data was projected from the twelve-sided prism, surrounding him layer by layer, and then quickly integrated and processed, finally turning into a virtual projection similar to a book.
【Chronicles of a Glorious Dynasty】

"Oh?" Seeing these words, Li Ming immediately became interested.

When he opened the first page, he saw a line of Titan words that made him look solemn.
"The glorious dynasty almost completely sealed off the Eternal Abyss..."

The Eternal Abyss, which even the Titans could not stop, was almost sealed by this so-called glorious dynasty?

Li Ming was slightly surprised and looked more carefully: "Glorious Dynasty, a powerful civilization in the last Guixu period, mainly active in the universe..."

"…It turns out it's a matriarchal society. No wonder the broken stone can only be inherited by females…"

The chronicle of the glorious dynasty described by the Titans was a huge book. Li Ming spent three days and three nights reading it and only read a small part of it.

However, the most important information has been basically understood, and the rest are basically records of information similar to local customs and practices.

"Really..." Li Ming didn't know how to describe it. He originally thought that Titan was powerful enough, but he didn't expect that there was an even more powerful "Glorious Dynasty" ahead.

After an entire Titan era, all remaining traces of the glorious dynasty have basically disappeared.

You can think of it as a combination of three major civilizations, a multi-racial composite matriarchal society ruled by three monarchs, all of whom are female.

At the end of the glorious dynasty, it also entered the Guixu period.

In other words, the Guixu period led to the end of the glorious dynasty, after a difficult battle with the Yuan clan.

The Glorious Dynasty's front line was losing ground. The Yuan Clan used war to support war and eroded life forms. In the long battle, almost no one could gain the upper hand.

But the overall strength of the Glorious Dynasty was greater than that of the Titans, and this war lasted for nearly ten thousand years.

The Glorious Dynasty has mobilized the entire civilization to research a solution, but the Titans are not sure they have found it.

But what we know is that the Yuan clan was defeated at one point and even retreated back into the Eternal Abyss.

The "Trinity" is just a few words left behind.

"The solution is the Trinity?" Li Ming muttered.

His most intuitive guess was that three ultimate life forms might be fused in some way to unleash a power that surpasses the current level.

Above the Ultimate?

He was not sure whether his guess was correct. According to records, the glorious dynasty eventually collapsed and did not really make a comeback.

What surprised Li Ming the most was that there was also an organization similar to the Virgin Mary Church in the Titan Era, also known as the "Church of Life"

They also only absorbed female life forms, and grew and developed to a certain extent. It has been made clear in this chronicle that they are the heirs of the glorious dynasty.

But in the middle and late stages of the Titan civilization, it was destroyed because they used a forbidden item called "Black Egg" to breed Titans on a large scale.

However, the Titans did not discover those stones, and perhaps a small number of remnants eventually escaped.

When Li Ming saw this, he didn't know how to describe it.

The history of the Virgin Mary Church was much longer than he had imagined, and could even be traced back to before the Titan era.

"He has a good background, but now he is in such a mess." Li Ming couldn't help but sigh, but shook his head: "That's not right. When this era reached its peak, it almost parasitized the empire." "Even now when it is the weakest, it can still get an arm of the master, tut tut..."

Li Ming thought deeply and believed that the Holy Mother Church was still quite good. Every organization or civilization has its times of prosperity and decline.

Whether it can continue depends on the lower limit when it declines.

"If we can study that broken arm to its full potential, the Holy Mother Church might be able to rise again." Li Ming was secretly amazed.

This is a hidden danger. He can't hide the progress of the Empire and the Federation, but the Holy Mother Church knows nothing about it.

He was a little uncertain: "It's not likely that an ultimate life form will suddenly appear and sweep across the universe."

As he was thinking, he suddenly asked, "Old Supervisor, is it difficult to give birth to a master in the Titan Era?"

"Of course..." The Supervisor was confused. "According to your calculation method, the Titan Era spanned seven million years, and a total of less than forty Overlords were born."

“…That’s really difficult.” Li Ming nodded suddenly and walked out of the twelve prisms.

He said goodbye casually and logged off.

Only the frowning supervisor was left.

Slowly opening his eyes, Li Ming exhaled a breath mixed with some energy particles.

Glancing at the smart terminal next to me, I realized that the delay this time was not short, totaling nearly ten days.

The first thing to do is naturally to check all kinds of information to see if there are any emergencies in the outside world.

It was discovered that Anduin had tried to contact him about four or five days ago.

Three days ago, we contacted each other again.

"Holy Mother Church?" Li Ming thought of this first and responded immediately.

After waiting for a while, the communication was connected and a virtual screen popped up. Anduin's face did not look good.

Since the last meeting, many people who had had friction and conflicts with him in the past have used the challenge to humiliate him and ask him to step down as soon as possible.

However, when he saw Qinglong, his expression finally eased a little.

"Is there any news from the Holy Mother Church?" Li Ming asked immediately.

Anduin was slightly stunned. This was the same question again.

Qinglong is really concerned about the Holy Mother Church. I wonder what exactly they have done.

He was also curious about this, especially after seeing Qinglong's battle video last time, he was even more surprised.

Since Qinglong hinted to him, it meant that the Holy Mother Church must be involved, but he really couldn't find any clues about the Holy Mother Church.

"No, it's about you." Anduin shook his head.

"About me?" Li Ming's mind was filled with various thoughts, and finally turned into one sentence: "What is it?"

"You haven't heard?" Anduin was surprised, but he didn't keep it a secret. He said immediately: "Not long after the meeting, news spread among higher life forms..."

Having said that, Anduin couldn't help but look at Qinglong with a little hesitation.

"What's being spread?" Li Mingwei frowned slightly.

"It is said that the video released by the two Godsmiths was deliberately edited. That is not your mechanical body. It is just a product of the fusion of a large number of mechanical bodies by the Mechanical Holy Spirit." Anduin said in a deep voice:
"Besides, you didn't defeat Tandin and Alves. It was even a stretch to say that you defeated Tandin alone. You only reached an agreement with the two of them through threats."

Someone has debunked the rumor... Empire or Federation?
He thought subconsciously.

Anduin added: "The person who spread the rumor has bad intentions and obviously does not want to see your reputation grow."

"It's not a rumor, it's true." Li Ming said frankly.

Anduin's eyes moved slightly, but he was not surprised. He had long realized that it must be the work of the Empire or the Federation. They did not want to become a stepping stone for Qinglong's fame and wanted to suppress his momentum.

I just said that to give Qinglong a way out, but I didn't expect him to be so calm.

Li Ming smiled and said, "Who can beat Tandin and Alves if they join forces?"

It's not a question of one plus one being greater than two.

He didn't really care about this matter. Instead, he asked with interest, "After this news came out, has anyone mentioned challenging me again?"

"That's not the case." Anduin shook his head. "There's no concrete evidence to prove that if you were somewhere else and merged and then went there to fight, they wouldn't be able to do anything to you."

"As for other higher life forms, they dare not do that." Anduin couldn't help but laugh when he said this: "In their words, they can't prohibit the use of mechanical bodies in front of their own homes."

"That's true." Li Ming grinned, "I am a person who holds grudges."

Joking aside, Anduin calmed down and said, "But there are rumors that if you can find a way to prevent machines from fighting, you will just be an ordinary machine."

Li Ming chuckled indifferently. This was weakening his reputation. The endless speculation before was too scary and had to be suppressed.

Under normal circumstances, no one would dare to try it, but at least there would be an impression in the mind -
Qinglong's strength is subject to limitations.

Anduin just wanted to confirm the authenticity of the news, and after getting the answer, he would end the communication.

Li Mingze reminded, "Remember to check the Holy Mother Church."

Anduin was helpless, "It never stopped."

The screen went black. Li Ming's eyes flickered. He put other things aside for the time being, rubbed his hands, stood up and left the room.

Now that he had enough metal energy, he was ready to forge the rest of the life force cores.

We also gained a lot of world blood this time, and we will continue to upgrade what needs to be upgraded.

……

“I just said that as long as you support our expansion, you will definitely gain something.”

Gutierrez's fingers unconsciously stroked the laser marks on the edge of the desk. The cold light of the holographic projection divided him into blocks of light and dark.

There were two projection screens in front of him. The image of Anatoly on the left was trembling slightly, and the background was the observation cabin of a starship.

Anatoly was smiling and raising his glass. The afterglow of the new star outside the porthole dyed the wine in the glass into molten gold.

"What's the gain?" Gutierrez sneered, "Qinglong has become a vice-director. Now we only have two ordinary seats left, equal to the Empire."

"You call this a harvest? The performance of the two directors and vice-directors at the voting site was really disappointing."

"No, no..." Anatoly shook his head, obviously in a good mood, "At least we have a glimpse of what happened deep in the Red River Star Stream."

"We have a lot of paper evidence for our estimation of Qinglong."
