This is not mechanical ascension...

Chapter 579 Do you want to win?

This is a barren place. A descendant of an X-level life form comes here to have fun?
"We have investigated the navigation report and found that their final destination is a cosmic Jedi - the Great Fell interstellar volcano. In two months, it will enter the eruption period." Someone responded immediately.

Someone else added: "In addition, we have searched the memories of all the accompanying personnel and found that this person often brings a large number of friends and female life forms to the Jedi of the universe to have fun."

"Unexpected situation?" Tandin looked suspiciously at the corpse on the ground.

"It should be an accident." Alves reminded, "There is no need to force someone to be involved. He has no way of knowing the coordinates here."

Tandin nodded hesitantly, but still said: "But with the S-level life form here, it will be troublesome to continue disguising as a star pirate to kill it."

"Simple. Isn't he going to the Jedi of the universe? Just trigger a natural disaster." Alvis said lightly.

"Afterwards, keep a close eye on Clarkson." Tan Ding reminded: "If he shows any abnormal behavior, report it immediately."

Everyone nodded hastily.

"You're too nervous." Alves glanced over.

Tandin said expressionlessly: "It's better to be prepared."

The Joint Operations Conference Center is a special department established by the three major civilizations to target the Holy Castle and Azure Dragon.

It is used to integrate some resources of the three major civilizations, with Costat as the commander-in-chief, and one person from the Covenant and one person from the Federation as deputy commanders.

"Arrogant!" In the conference room, Federal Deputy Commander Hines threw a paper report on the table with a grim face.

Indigo's face turned red, and he pointed at the report with his hairy hand, "Look, this is the deterrent power of the three major civilizations!"

"More than twenty interstellar large companies have provided the Mechanical King's Court with more than 400 billion interest-free loans. More than a dozen super-large armed forces have signed new contracts and even sent special envoys to the Mechanical King's Court..."

"No one listens to us. The United Organization of Higher Life Forms is going to challenge us!"

He paced back and forth around the circular conference table, his voice so loud it could penetrate the metal walls.

The many senior executives sitting on the chairs had different expressions on their faces. They had also read the report on the table and were somewhat dissatisfied.

The three major civilizations have united to take action against a certain person or force. In the past, other X-level life forms would have been in a panic and avoided it.

And now, not only are they still in contact in secret, but it is even out in the open.

"Sir Hines, there's no need to be so excited..." said Schmidt, the deputy commander of the Star Alliance, but before he finished speaking, a "bang" was heard.

Hines slammed his sturdy fists on the conference table and gritted his teeth, "Am I excited? When have I ever been excited?"

"Which eye of yours saw my excitement?"

"Why should I be excited? It's nothing more than that Qinglong leads the United Organization of Higher Life Forms to be on par with the Federation."

"Oh, I almost forgot..." Heins paused, then roared, "Their combined strength is stronger than any other civilization!"

There was dead silence in the conference room.

Hines sneered: "When this organization was first established, I said that it must be stopped. It must be stopped. In the end, no one listened to me. Now it's all over for everyone."

At this point, Costat's face looked a little grim, and he had to respond, "Mr. Hines, the situation has not yet reached that point, there is no need to exaggerate."

"If it really gets to that point, can we still sit here and have a meeting?" Hines sneered, "We can't let them continue like this now. They'll lose face."

"What are you going to do?" Schmidt couldn't help but look.

"Kill the chicken to scare the monkey!" Heins shouted resolutely, "Don't they want to support us? Don't they dare to pretend to obey but actually disobey? Pick a few and kill them. Let them see if we can still use the knife!"

Upon hearing this, the senior executives present suddenly became noisy and whispered to each other, and some nodded in agreement.

Some people frowned and shook their heads.

Schmidt remained silent, and Costat frowned, "Is this method too radical?"

"I don't agree either." Schmidt agreed, "Right now, our problem is the Holy Castle and the Azure Dragon."

"The United Organization of Higher Life Forms is just a mob. They have lived for so many years, but it doesn't mean that if we organize them together, they will work together. Qinglong can't do it either."

"They are just trying to use Azure Dragon to challenge us. If they really do it, it will be equivalent to putting external pressure on them and make them unite."

"Once we defeat Qinglong, we will naturally be able to break their backbone."

"Are you sure you can defeat Qinglong?" Hines looked indifferent.

"I agree with Mr. Schmidt's idea," Costat said, but added, "But the Higher Life Forms United Organization will have to suppress them a little and make them restrain themselves to avoid causing trouble."

"The five-year ban on rotation of the board seat has passed, and the challenge agreed upon previously can now begin."

Everyone then remembered that several months had actually passed.

It was just because of the incident with Qinglong and the Holy Castle that everyone's attention was focused on it, and they forgot about this matter.

The challenge agreement was made more than half a year ago and can be started at any time.

Schmidt nodded involuntarily. "I almost forgot about this. We have already occupied all the top positions in the Council. Gustav and Anatoly can only act according to the situation. Qinglong will be defeated sooner or later, and this organization will not amount to anything."

"What do you think, Mr. Hines?" Costat asked.

"Let's make it bigger, Star Live, defeat those guys with the force of thunder and trample them underfoot!" Hines' attitude was extremely explosive, "Let's see who dares to pretend to obey but actually disobey!"

This time, no one objected. It was time to intimidate them.

Costat groaned. "The next thing is the matter of the Holy Castle. We have captured another batch of chosen ones and are sending them from various directions. The fastest ones are expected to arrive in three months."

There was no need to worry about being discovered by others, and no one was secretly making trouble. The empire's efficiency was terrifyingly fast. Instead of catching one, they captured a new batch.

"Then we can send someone in again to confirm the situation of Qinglong." Costat pondered.

"We have accurate information here, but Azure Dragon's real body is not actually in the Holy Castle. It just came to the Holy Castle using a special method, probably a mimic body."

"But we still need to confirm this information. We plan to isolate the Saint Castle's external information entanglement communication methods while entering for verification."

"If that's the case, then it's simple." Schmidt couldn't help but say, "Without the interference of Azure Dragon, the Holy Castle won't be a big problem."

"As for the next plan, we have to wait until this news is confirmed." Costat looked around and said in a deep voice: "The structure of each holy fortress is different. The previous experience in cracking it is useless. We need to study it again."

"Qinglong is not an ordinary evolved being either. I hope you guys won't be anxious."

Everyone nodded. …………

Buzz--
The smart terminal placed aside was vibrating. Li Ming opened his eyes and looked. He saw that the amplitude of the smart terminal was slow and the buzzing sound was extremely long, which made people feel a little uncomfortable.

Li Ming made a "tsk" sound and immediately cancelled the development state. At the moment when the time rate was synchronized, he had an inexplicable sense of trance.

He even felt that everything in front of him was shrouded in a layer of gray fog, which was extremely uncomfortable, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"This is the time distortion effect." Li Ming looked at his hands.

This is due to the mismatch between his own space-time information and his understanding of the universe.

This effect cannot be underestimated. At present, the time difference is relatively short and nothing can be seen.
But as the time difference becomes longer and longer, the universe will unconsciously correct this difference in perception. In the mildest case, the space-time information will be confused, with half of the body aging and the other half shaped like a child. In the worst case, the universe will perish on the spot.

No one can resist the might of the universe.

However, with the passive ability of [Time Immunity], this perception of time difference has little impact on him.

He picked up the smart terminal and found that it was Anduin contacting him, so he answered the call immediately.

The virtual screen popped up, and Anduin looked a little annoyed. After seeing him, he calmed down a little, "Sir Qinglong, are you still resting?"

"What else?" Li Ming said calmly, "If the three great civilizations don't take action, I can't take the initiative to fight them."

"Alas..." Anduin said helplessly, "The three major civilizations have all sent troops to Fort Saint. Unless the Covenant and the Federation fully join the battle or figure out certain things, they probably won't really launch a stranglehold on you."

"However, the actions of the United Organization of Higher Life Forms have angered them."

"Oh?" Li Ming couldn't help but look, "What's going on? Are they going to attack the joint organization?"

"I'm not that stupid." Anduin shook his head and sighed: "If I take action now, isn't it obvious that I'm giving you a chance?"

"It's a challenge that we agreed on before," Anduin explained. "I just received a notice that the challenge for the board of directors is about to begin, and it's going to be on a large scale. They say that in order to be fair, just, and open, there will even be an interstellar live broadcast to the entire universe."

"Interstellar live broadcast?" Li Ming was surprised.

This matter was not originally of such a large scale. It was something that could have been resolved internally and only required an announcement afterwards.

"Yes, the three major civilizations clearly want to use us old guys to intimidate others." Anduin's face was grim. "I guess they will definitely do their best to trample on our faces."

At the same time he was angry, he was helpless. Interstellar live broadcast was tantamount to losing face.

Unless you admit defeat directly or do not show up, your face will still be trampled on.

"Really? That's a bit too much." Li Ming's eyes flickered and he responded casually while thinking about other things.

Anduin glanced at him and sighed again.

Although this incident was caused by their secret support for Qinglong, it was not entirely due to Qinglong.

The support from the joint organization also has ulterior motives.

Qinglong is in trouble now, we can't expect Qinglong to turn the tide.

Maybe the three major civilizations are worried about not being able to find him, and are waiting for him to fall into their trap.

This contact was nothing more than venting complaints and exchanging information.

Anduin reminded him again: "You have to be careful too. The Empire has captured a large number of chosen ones. They will probably enter the Holy Citadel in the same way as last time."

"Hmm..." Li Ming didn't comment. He looked at Anduin and asked abruptly, "Do you want to win?"

"Win?" Anduin's heart skipped a beat, and he asked cautiously, "What do you mean?"

"Literally, I'm asking you, do you want to win?" Li Ming repeated.

Anduin frowned. If it was before the StarCraft live broadcast, he would have already accepted the fact that he would leave the board seat.

Although it was a bit embarrassing to face him in person at the expansion conference, it has been a long time since then.

But this interstellar live broadcast was not just a humiliation for him, it was simply trampling on his face.

Even a clay man can get angry, let alone the Lord of the Star Gate who started fighting from the chaotic star gap.

It would be fine if he had no channel to vent his anger, but Qinglong's words immediately ignited the fire in his heart.

"Do you have a solution?" Anduin asked cautiously, and then emphasized: "If you show up, I'm afraid the gains will outweigh the losses."

"No..." Li Ming shook his head, "You just need to tell me whether you want to win or not. If you want to win, I will naturally find a way to help you."

Anduin's expression changed. The consequences behind this sentence were not small.

If he really won, how others would react, how the three major civilizations would react.

Anduin hesitated for a moment, but looking at Qinglong's calm face, he gritted his teeth and said, "Win, I want to win!"

"Very good, then can you help me ask others if they want to win?" Li Ming asked again.

Anduin's heart stagnated, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

He stood out from the crowd and was a little worried, but if others also won, the situation would be very different.

"Well, Mr. Perkins, Murderous should have this idea. Axel has publicly expressed his dissatisfaction several times, so he should be able to be persuaded. Senel is afraid of chaos in the world, so he will definitely agree..."

"…But the Dwarf King needs to be responsible for his own race, so I'm afraid he won't agree easily…Also…"

Anduin speculated, and then said in a deep voice: "Give me a few days, and I will give you a list."

"But..." He hesitated, "Are you sure that no one will notice?"

"If I wasn't sure, I wouldn't have asked." Li Ming said lightly.

What Qinglong said was still very trustworthy. Anduin nodded heavily, feeling a little excited.

The deterrence of the three major civilizations is a double-edged sword. If it fails to achieve the desired effect, they will be the ones who get slapped in the face.

Moreover, once the seats they occupy are reduced, they will be transformed from manipulators to "spectators", and their influence will be further weakened.

The virtual screen went out, and Li Ming grinned silently, "Plans cannot keep up with changes. Interstellar live broadcast... I don't know who came up with this good idea, it helped me a lot."

He stood up and went to the foundry, preparing to forge several control objects with secret suppressing effects.
