This is not mechanical ascension...

Chapter 632 Big News

After adjusting the coordinates, Li Ming thought about it, found Sheffield's name again, and dialed it through the encrypted channel.

The other party answered the call quickly. On the virtual screen, Sheffield greeted with a gentle smile, "Your Excellency Qinglong..."

Li Ming nodded slightly and asked, "How is the company's reconstruction going?"

Sheffield responded: "It has been rebuilt almost completely. The general framework has not been damaged. Only some core areas have become ruins. It won't take too much time and resources to rebuild it."

At this point, he paused and spoke tentatively, still a little nervous, "Is there a problem with the gene seed?"

He didn't think that Qinglong came to him just to ask about the company's situation. The only thing he could think of was that there might be something wrong with the prepared gene seeds.

Qinglong takes this matter very seriously. If there is something wrong with the gene seed, he will have to bear the consequences.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

"It's not this." Li Ming denied it directly, "I want to invite you to come to the Mechanical King's Court."

"Oh?" Sheffield was slightly stunned.

"I want to study the feasibility of the ultimate gene seed." Li Ming continued, "I am going to let you take the lead and see if we can find a direction."

This matter is not a bad thing in itself. If it is too secretive, it may make Sheffield suspicious.

"Ultimate gene seed?" Sheffield's breath hitched.

The ultimate life form is the eternal pursuit of the current interstellar space, but he was not too excited.

After all, the most important issue with the ultimate gene seed is the material. If this problem cannot be solved, all feasible plans are useless.

But he was not surprised that Qinglong had such an idea. Who doesn't want to evolve to the ultimate level of life form, especially a person like Qinglong who almost stands at the top of the interstellar space.

"This..." Sheffield hesitated and said helplessly: "If it's just me, I'm afraid I can't do anything."

"I want to ask that, too." Li Ming took over the conversation, "Who else do you think is qualified to participate in the interstellar space? I mean people who are not from the three major civilizations."

"Hmm..." Sheffield's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that Qinglong was not joking and he was really prepared for this.

He couldn't help but feel a little excited. It was not at the civilization level, and not at the level of one of the three major civilizations. It was almost impossible to initiate research of this level.

The manpower and resources are completely not on the same level, which will only waste time.

If he initiated this research, there might not be much response, but the resources that Qinglong could leverage would be different.

Even if the ultimate gene seed cannot be researched, any other gains will be of extraordinary value.

With the example of Mechanical Seed in the past, Sheffield clearly saw the value of it and was determined to get involved.

He thought, "There are a few guys who are quite good at this. They are mainly active in the Sea of ​​Stars. When I was preparing the gene seeds before, I asked them to give me advice indirectly."

"How about this, you make a list for me and I'll see if I can invite them." Li Ming said with a smile.

"Okay." Sheffield nodded, then changed the subject, "However, there are a few guys who are withdrawn. Should I go around and invite them in person?"

The last time he prepared the gene seed for Qinglong, the other party did not do anything to him and also fulfilled his previous promise, which made him trust Qinglong a lot more.

Taking the initiative to volunteer is also a way to improve your own value.

"Okay." Li Ming's eyes lit up, "Then I'll trouble you, sir."

"But..." he emphasized, "It's best to keep this a secret. Otherwise, if the three great civilizations find out, they might try to interfere."

Sheffield told him not to worry, "Those who can independently produce X-level gene seeds and have not yet been recruited by the three major civilizations are more or less in trouble with them."

Li Ming nodded, and the two exchanged a few more pleasantries before ending the communication.

"Sheffield can really help me save time. Let's see how many people he can bring." Li Ming couldn't help but grin.

With Sheffield's help, he doesn't have to run anymore, otherwise it would take him another half a year to complete the whole journey.

I sorted out in my mind what I was going to do next.

Li Ming pulled out a series of medicines and poured them into his stomach. Only then did he enter the long-lost development state, and various elemental particles began to spread in the room again.

Two days later, an inconspicuous little spaceship arrived at the Mechanical Royal Court, taking a secret passage and arriving here unnoticed by outsiders.

In the spaceship dock, Ulrich was the first person to see the guy that Li Ming specifically asked to take care of.

"Is it him?" Ulrich's heart trembled slightly when he saw this somewhat nervous guy walking down from the spaceship.

He had seen this person in a video sent from the deep dimensional world more than a year ago.

At that time, Lord Qinglong got to the Holy Castle first, and this guy seemed to be the key factor used by the Empire to open the Holy Castle.

Why is he here?

Ulrich's first thought was, and then he had a guess, a guess that made his heart beat wildly.

Leonidach walked down the stairs slowly, feeling somewhat uneasy.

After all, this is Li Ming's territory, and he has no idea what the personality of the Qinglong student who is known as "the person with the greatest potential in interstellar development" is like.

Attitude towards his arrival is also very important.

"Lord Leonidach?" Ulrich came up and introduced himself in a friendly manner. "I'm Ulrich, the CEO of the Mechanical Royal Court."

"Sir Ulrich..." Laionidak responded hurriedly.

"Please follow me, sir. The resting place has been arranged. Please follow me." Ulrich slightly turned sideways.

Lai Onidak reacted quickly, hurriedly followed, and asked carefully: "Do you want to go see Mr. Li Ming first?"

"No, he's usually busy, so he might be with His Excellency Qinglong right now." Ulrich lied, "But he specifically told me to receive His Excellency in person."

Leonidak's expression eased after hearing from the other party that Li Ming did not deliberately avoid seeing him and had even taken special care of him.

On the way, Ulrich further asked, "Sir, are you coming from the Holy Castle?"

Leonidas paused, and in his mind emerged several pieces of information that Boss Qinglong had specifically warned him not to reveal to anyone.

He pursed his lips and nodded: "Yes, I came from the Holy Castle."

"Is the matter over there over?" Ulrich verified his guess and asked impatiently.

"It's over." Leonidak said vaguely.

"Who won? Was it His Excellency Qinglong?" Ulrich suppressed his excitement. "It was His Excellency Qinglong." Leonidak gave the correct answer.

Ulrich stopped suddenly and turned back, which scared Leonidak. He then realized that the other party was looking at him with extremely passionate eyes.

"What exactly is going on?" Ulrich's throat rolled. All high-level interstellar life forms knew that in the matter of the Holy Castle, there would inevitably be another clash between the three major civilizations and Azure Dragon.

But no one knows when it will happen, so naturally everyone is extremely curious.

He also didn't expect that the dispute over the Holy Castle would end so quietly.

And it was Qinglong who won. He realized that there was a lot to be done here, and perhaps it could further strengthen the current Mechanical Royal Court.

"This..." Lai Onidak couldn't help but hesitate, and Ulrich also realized that his attitude was a little too excited.

He calmed himself down and did not ask any further questions. He took Leonidak to a special small aircraft outside the spaceship dock.

As the anti-gravity engine started up, the aircraft floated silently towards the core residential area, quickly passing by the construction area below.

The gentle wind blew towards me, mixed with the unique smell of metal materials.
"Don't worry, I know there are some things you definitely can't say explicitly, you just need to pick out the things you can say." Ulrich calmed down and guessed that Qinglong probably had instructed Leonidak.

There should be some information that cannot be leaked.

Leonidas finally breathed a sigh of relief, sorted out his thoughts, and whispered, "This is the situation..."

He told the whole story, and the most important thing was that he hid the few things that fell after Morris died.

He didn't know what those things were exactly, but Qinglong had specifically emphasized that if they were leaked, anyone related to him would die.

"The ultimate...life...body?" Ulrich's voice was dry and he was dumbfounded.

Lord Qinglong actually killed a guy who was suspected to be the ultimate life form, and he was filled with shock and fear in his heart.

"...It was the Titan branch that appeared in the video. The means by which the three civilizations killed the forbidden life form should also be him..." Ulrich's cheeks flushed, and he paced back and forth on the aircraft: "Such a big thing, how can it be silent?"

"Yes, we must not do it silently, and let the three major civilizations act as if nothing happened, and everyone else still has their dignity."

"When we killed the forbidden life form, it caused a lot of trouble in the interstellar space. We can't play dead now."

"What do you mean?" Leonidak was puzzled.

"Do you have any relatives?" Ulrich asked suddenly.

"Almost gone..." Leonidak looked gloomy. After connecting to the communication network some time ago, he found out that his fiancée had remarried during the nearly one year since he disappeared.

"That's good..." Ulrich said halfway, looking a little embarrassed, and explained: "What I mean is, make a list of the people you think are important and I will send someone to pick them up as soon as possible..."

"And you need to accept an interview."

"Interview?" Leonidach was stunned.

“Yes, Lord Qinglong doesn’t like fame and fortune, but I can’t stand the fact that nothing happens to the three great civilizations.” Ulrich suddenly raised his voice.

"Don't worry about it. There will be an interview transcript for you when the time comes."

Leonidach nodded blankly and thought carefully. Boss Qinglong only asked him not to disclose what happened after Morris' death. As for what happened before that, he didn't specifically remind him.

Ulrich was ready to go and quickly contacted people on the smart terminal.

And just three days later, the calm interstellar public opinion field was suddenly thrown into turmoil by a video.

A Qinglong fanatic named "Chief Dragon Blower" suddenly released an interview video without any warning, with a shocking title:
[The ultimate life form dies! The three major civilizations retreat to the end! ]

His number of fans is already huge, and is linked to the increasingly large Mechanical Royal Court and Qinglong itself. In the interstellar public opinion field, he is a sharp blade.

This time the knife was drawn even faster and more sharply, instantly attracting a lot of people's attention.

This is an interview video. The interviewee looks like an ordinary life form who is a bit shy.

"I seem to have seen him somewhere..."

“…it looks ordinary, another catchy headline…”

Some people had a vague impression of Leonidachus when they saw him.

Many forces immediately recognized this guy as the one who opened the Holy Castle. At the same time, they also realized that this video might not be simple.

The chief dragon blower who came to interview Onidaq was a man wearing a hood and spoke in a strange tone, "Someone should have recognized that this gentleman was the one who was forced by the empire to open the Holy Castle..."

"What is the Saint Castle?"

A series of comments passed by, some people answered, but more were filled with doubts.

The interview did not explain this issue, but went straight to the point.

"Sir Leonidas, you said you witnessed the war between the three civilizations and Sir Azure Dragon on the Holy Castle..."

"Yes..." Leonidach nodded solemnly, "I witnessed the tragic defeat of the three major civilizations..."

The interview format was simple, the answers were simple too, and clearly designed, but what was not simple was the information it revealed.

As more and more information was released, more and more comments were posted, and the popularity soared, many people discovered that this did not seem to be a funny video.

In some unknown place, a battle did take place that was powerful enough to cause an interstellar shock.

"…It is really sad. The fall of an ultimate life form, the death of an imperial prince, the sacrifice of several x-level life forms, and the three major civilizations have no reaction. What do you think is the reason?"

Leonidachus groaned, "Maybe it's fear, fear..."

"…Then I believe that this interview video will cause a huge stir after it is released, and some people may even doubt the truth of what you said. Can you prove that what you said is true?"

Leonidak shook his head. “I don’t have any video records, but I am willing to take responsibility for what I said and I can debate with anyone sent by the three civilizations.”

"Wow, what a strong attitude." Chief Longchui responded exaggeratedly, and then his voice sank, "So... do the three major civilizations dare to respond?"

The video is not long and was immediately placed on the desks of various civilizations and forces.

Many interstellar dignitaries, heads of civilizations, and X-level life forms were stunned. What surprised them was not that the three major civilizations were defeated in the battle for the Holy Castle.

But among ordinary life forms, the words "ultimate life form" did not cause much waves.

Most ordinary people don’t know what these words mean because they are too far away from them.

But these interstellar bigwigs are different. They even suspected that the subtitles were wrong. Even after hearing it several times, they still refused to believe it.
