This is not mechanical ascension.

"If I drink it now, wouldn't it be a waste of natural resources?" Li Ming smiled and drank it all in one gulp. The cold and sticky liquid rolled down his throat and then quickly became hot, as if he had drunk a bottle of concentrated sulfuric acid.

The burning pain in the stomach gradually became more intense and quickly spread to other parts of the body. The cells were quickly mobilized, and various elemental forces hidden deep inside burst out.

The arc light in the room was blazing, and Li Ming was sweating all over. The numbness and tingling sensation kept coming like a tide, one wave higher than the other, making his eyes a little sluggish.

Increasing the root development potential, it seems like a few simple words, but in fact it is extremely difficult.

[Casablan Flower], this material used to prepare S-level gene seeds, can only work under the tenth level of development potential.

There is not enough data to judge how much it can increase, proving that no one will use this precious material to enhance genetic potential.

Li Ming breathed heavily, and felt as if there was a furnace burning inside his body, and he would be completely burned in the next moment.

"It hurts so much!"

Li Ming gritted his teeth and gritted his teeth, his heart pounding, and the boiling blood roared, about to burst out from his blood vessels all over his body.

This is even comparable to the transformation when the life level is improved. The surface of the skin is intertwined with golden lines, and the blue-black blood vessels bulge. The two intertwine to form a terrifying picture.

Li Ming gritted his teeth and persisted for a moment, then skillfully used [Field Medical Care]. After the last transformation, the 70% conversion blessing was even more amazing.

The golden lines all over the surface of the body melted at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if there was a cool energy that soothed his rioting cells and gradually entered a virtuous cycle.

I don't know how long it took, Li Ming slowly opened his eyes and exhaled, his body was filled with a sense of fullness, and the whole person was floating.

This is a feeling that is hard to describe. It seems that nothing has changed, but it also seems that a lot has changed. It's like a layer of dusty shell has been shed, and the whole person has become extremely relaxed.

After a while, he took out the only gene radiator he had left. Detecting the development progress is only one of its functions, and it can also detect genetic potential.

"Ding - Level 5!"

Li Ming was stunned, and then his eyes lit up. His original development potential was only level 1, but now it has directly become level 5, which is a full five times increase.

"If it was originally 1 times the development speed blessing, then now it is 5 times the development speed blessing..." Li Ming simply converted.

The real development speed cannot be quantified, but this conversion still makes him excited.

Just as he was about to put away the gene radiator, his mind moved slightly, and he switched to another mode.

"Ding - 52%!"

The development progress has also increased? Li Ming was surprised. He just felt the difference and vaguely guessed that the development progress had increased. It was indeed the case after quantification.

"Why is it only 10% higher..." He was not satisfied, feeling it was too little, but shook his head again, "The effect of this thing will not increase the development progress, it should be a side effect in the process of transformation, which is an extra gain."

This is not a conjecture, he read the purchased information several times, and there is no description of this at all.

"Let's see how much the development speed has increased."

The process of improving the gene potential took two or three hours, and he could have switched the control object long ago, and he couldn't wait to try it.

However, as soon as he opened the control page, a prompt popped up again--

[Deeply stimulated, [Gene Warrior] has changed, please check. ]

Has the professional ability also been stimulated? Li Ming's heart moved slightly, and he checked carefully.

It was found that [Gene Warrior] actually added a new ability--

[Extreme Transformation: When fusing B-level gene seeds, the special power left behind will bring special changes. ]

Li Ming was surprised, that is to say, part of the effect of [Casablan Flower] was intercepted.

[Extreme Transformation]... Tsk, Li Ming grinned, this bite, all kinds of gains made him feel good.

Although S-level sounds high-end, this thing is only one of the materials, and it is not the main material.

Not only has it strengthened all aspects, but a part of it has also been intercepted for future use. He is already very satisfied.

He continued to switch the development system control object. At the beginning, he felt the difference. Multiple evolution theories worked together in his body, the activity of cells was boiling unprecedentedly, and various elemental energies emerged on the surface of his body.

"Speeding up is not enough to describe it, it is simply soaring!" Li Ming opened his eyes. He has experienced various development speeds.

And the current development speed is more obvious than his fastest time-increasing 1% development progress per day.

"This thing is a magic medicine for me, but it's too precious." Li Ming pursed his lips.

The Casablanca Flower has an effect on the development potential below level 10, which means that he can use it again.

Unfortunately, it is really hard to get.

"There is a serious information gap with the interstellar civilization. If it weren't for an accident, I might never know that there is such a thing." Li Ming couldn't help shaking his head, and then continued immersive development.

As he encountered more powerful life forms, he realized more and more clearly how terrifying it was that one could see progress through hard work.

C-level and B-level life forms, even if they worked hard for a month or half a year, might find it difficult to improve their development progress by 1%.

…

In a narrow space somewhere, the metal wall was covered with gray-brown marks and unknown stains.

Yaro frowned, feeling the fishy smell coming from the toilet bowl covered with yellow alkali traces below, and the voice on the virtual screen kept fluctuating.

"Yaro, why did you contact me now? What happened? Where are you?" Wu Yanqing asked.

"Teacher, it's not that I didn't want to contact you before, it's just that it's not easy to contact you." Ya Luo said helplessly, "Isn't this the first time to report to you that I'm safe."

"Reporting safety?" Wu Yanqing said coldly: "It's been more than three months since you left, and you're reporting safety to me now?"

Yaro smiled.

"Where are you, is Li Ming still with you?" Wu Yanqing asked again: "Why didn't he contact me?"

You disappeared for several months, and no one cared. Now you can't contact him, and you start to get anxious? Ya Luo complained secretly, and then explained carefully: "Uh, we broke up."

"Break up?" Wu Yanqing's voice suppressed anger: "What did I tell you when I left?"

"Teacher, it was an unexpected situation, and I couldn't do anything about it." Ya Luo explained vaguely.

"Unexpected situation?" Wu Yanqing's voice was cold, "You joined the anti-plunder department of the Interstellar Alliance, so there is no way?"

"This..." Yaluo was speechless.

"Tell me, what's going on? And that great mechanic Qinglong is really Li Ming's teacher." Wu Yanqing said in a deep voice.

Yaluo looked strange, he was hesitant to speak, touching the mimicry mask on his face, and remembered what Li Ming said before leaving, "It's okay to tell the teacher the truth, but it's better not to tell it. Anyway, it's up to you."

Teacher, it's not that I don't care about the relationship between master and apprentice, it's really that my junior brother has given too much. You are in danger of following Asmara. If your memory is searched one day, it will be the end.

"I don't know." Yaluo gritted his teeth.

"You... don't know?" Wu Yanqing was silent for a moment, his voice was low.

Yaluo subconsciously shuddered. If he was in person, he knew he would be kicked out.

"Ah, teacher, my signal is not very good, contact again, contact again~" He hung up in a hurry and wiped the non-existent cold sweat on his forehead.

...

Later, Huo Tan came. The personal butler of the collector came to invite him to the banquet.

Li Ming had packed up long ago, took the repaired things, and followed Huo Tan.

"Where is Cassis? I thought she would come to pick me up." Li Ming asked curiously.

"Miss Cassis has been stimulated and will not appear in the short time." Huo Tan smiled.

"I really should say sorry to her." Li Ming said helplessly.

Ho Tan smiled but said nothing.

After arriving at Ulrich's castle, the banquet hall had been almost decorated. There were all kinds of food and wine on the two long tables. Most of them were not seen by him, but he saw many familiar people.

"Hey, aren't you the guy who wanted to sneak attack me last time?" Li Ming's eyes lit up slightly, and he saw the one-eyed fish man not far away.

Frossard's body stiffened, and he turned around silently, but he still felt a slight tremor on his back.

"What you are eating is...octopus?" Li Ming looked at the octopus tentacles in the shark's mouth with a strange look in his eyes: "Doesn't this count as eating your own kind?"

"Of course not, it's just an ordinary creature, I'm an intelligent fishman." Frosa reluctantly explained, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Qinglong, it was a misunderstanding last time, please don't mind it."

"It's all in the past." Li Ming smiled and picked up the wine glass casually.

Frosa breathed a sigh of relief and clinked glasses with him. They had just returned to the Land of Stars and learned a lot of information.

Not only is the origin of this Qinglong unpredictable, but it is said that he has caused a lot of trouble. Ulrich has a headache all day long, and he can't throw it away or take it.

Anyone who dares to get close to him may be hacked to death by some force the next day.

"Alas..." Li Ming glanced at him and said in surprise: "Dirty Blood Spear, didn't I make this weapon?"

Blood Wolf-Sislang tried to pretend that he didn't hear anything, turned his head and looked elsewhere, but Li Ming dragged Frosa to him.

Li Ming looked around: "I remember that the one who came to me for customization seemed to be a centaur, how come it's on you?"

"I killed him and robbed him." Xi Silang said indifferently.

"The centaur is his subordinate. He was embarrassed to look for you, so he asked his subordinate to go." Frosa whispered.

"You..." Xi Silang stared at Frosa, showing his sharp teeth.

"Enough, don't embarrass yourself here." A cold voice came, and the burly Sandro came from the back corridor, followed by a figure. Frosa and Xi Silang bowed their heads in awe.

Li Ming was not unfamiliar with Sandro. His eyes fell on the figure who was only half the height of Sandro. He looked like a human, with dry skin, and the most eye-catching thing was the pair of gray pupils.

He seemed to be seen through. Gray pupils--Theo, the master of the Night Eyes Mercenary Group, was once the number one thug under the Star King.

The seemingly burly Sandro was once just his deputy.

In the Land of Stars, only these three A-level life forms are subordinates of the Star King. According to Saber, although there are many grievances, they will help each other in time if there is danger.

This banquet is obviously to entertain these two people, and the others are their subordinates.

"Your Excellency Qinglong." Theo nodded, his tone was cold and calm.

"Your Excellency Theo." Li Ming smiled and raised his glass to indicate.

The status of a great mechanic is generally weaker than that of an A-level life form.

But he is different, and everyone knows all the mist that surrounds him.

There was no communication between the three of them until Ulrich came over and Hortan tapped the metal cup in his hand, attracting the attention of everyone at the banquet.

Li Ming didn't pay much attention to Ulrich's speech. He looked around and saw that they were basically B-level life forms, and there were more than a dozen in total.

"Your Excellency Qinglong, the master invites you to go over there." Huo Tan walked over slowly and gestured with his hand.

It is naturally impossible for the three A-level life forms to say anything to these B-level life forms.

Li Ming was a little surprised. He left here and went to a separate room as other B-level life forms watched.

"The great mechanic..." Frosha was filled with envy, as were everyone else.

…

"...Not long ago, the A-class life form of the Rossolos civilization - the Eternal Flame, Kutriel, was severely damaged by the United Fleet..."

When Li Ming pushed the door open and came in, Sandro was saying something. His burly figure seemed to occupy half of the room. His eyes swept over Li Ming, paused, and continued:

"After seven days of running away, I still couldn't avoid death."

Li Ming, who was about to sit down, paused for a moment. An A-level life form died?

"A-level life form..." Ulrich said sadly, "I had contact with him half a year ago. It's a pity."

"It's nothing to regret..." Sandro shook his head and sneered: "He was so confident that he didn't flee immediately. He stayed with the intention of resisting, but when he realized something was wrong, he had no chance to leave again."

"The United Fleet was originally used by Etlan to show off his power. He hit the point of a gun and sought his own death."

"A-class life forms cannot stand up to an interstellar battleship of that size."

Theo added: "The most important thing is the A-class life forms of the United Fleet."

"No, they didn't do anything," Sandro interrupted.

"Are you sure?" Theo frowned.

"Sure."

He stopped talking and sat on the sofa. Ulrich rubbed his fingers on his tail and couldn't help but said: "It is difficult for an A-class life form to control such a large-scale interstellar war."

Having said this, Sandro looked at Theo vaguely.

Li Ming keenly captured this point, and combined with the [Flower of Casablan], he couldn't help but guess, could it be that Theo has developed to 100% A-level and is preparing to evolve into an S-level life form?

It's not impossible. According to Saber, Theo was already an A-level life form when he followed Star King.

He was slightly nervous. [Flower of Casablanca] was a key material. Since it was lost, he must be in a bad mood.

I was invited here, couldn't it be because of this incident?
