This is not mechanical ascension.

Qinglong asked Sandro to attack me, probably because he wanted to take the opportunity to attack me, or maybe he deliberately wanted to break up with us, and even force the Torch Organization to expel Theo and I.

Ulrich had a lot on his mind and had already adjusted his response——

If Qinglong still asks me to apologize, I can only agree and not give him a reason to attack. Even if the request is more excessive, I cannot turn my face.

Facing everyone's gaze, Li Ming shook his head and said, "Sandro, forget it. Two or three quarrels won't end like this."

Sandro was slightly startled, a little surprised, just forget it?

He also thought Qinglong was hinting that he would be more intense and would have more follow-up actions.

It's really hard to guess what these old foxes are thinking.

Sandro muttered to himself, looked at Ulrich, and snorted: "Since Qinglong is interceding for you, let's forget about it."

Ulrich didn't care about Sandro's verbal self-victory, and looked at Theo calmly.

He was surprised, why was it different from what he thought? Qinglong wasn't going to use the topic?

Then why did he let Sandro have such a tough attitude?

Cornette's eyes moved slightly, but he was not prepared to delve into this matter.

He was in a hurry to leave now. He didn't want to worry about the bad blood between these people, as long as it didn't cause damage to the Torch organization.

Thinking of this, he said in a deep voice: "I hope everyone can restrain their tempers and don't get into a big fight just because of a little quarrel."

"You are all A-level lifeforms. The damage caused by the battle is extremely wide. If other innocent people in the organization are injured, I will never give up!"

At the end of the sentence, his voice became much louder. He was trying to stop a fight just now, so he definitely couldn't use this attitude. Now that the situation has calmed down, a warning must be given.

Although Fernande was watching after he left, none of these A-level life forms were at peace.

Ulrich shook his head indifferently: "I never take the initiative."

Sandro snorted coldly, but did not say a word. Cornette's warning still had enough weight.

Looking up at the big hole in the ceiling above his head and several holes in the wall, Cornette softened his tone and said, "I will have people come over to repair it as soon as possible. If everyone is okay, just go back."

Everyone present had different thoughts, but they all nodded and returned.

Cornette, who looked calm, quickly returned to the transport ship that had been prepared.

"What's going on?" Kovis asked curiously.

"It's just a little thing," Cornette shook his head and asked, "Nothing unexpected happened here, right?"

"I've been watching here, what accidents can happen." Kovis frowned, seeming a little displeased, "Those A-level life forms are used to being unruly, if you keep them in that small area, something will happen sooner or later. "

"It's better to kill them all."

"It's not that simple..." Cornette shook his head. It involved too much. Those big mechanics were not ordinary experimenters. They were willing to work for them after a few threats and some sweeteners.

If they were doing something secretly, a layman wouldn't be able to notice it even with a glare.

"Your Excellency Fernand, I'm sorry." Cornette looked at the taciturn Fernand.

After the two of them left, the other party was left alone to guard the main base of the Torch Organization.

"Don't worry." Fernand's features were like weathered stones, and he nodded dullly: "With Balzacs' power, they can't make any waves."

Cornette thought about it for a while, and logically speaking there should be nothing missing.

But he always felt a little uneasy, which he attributed to the unknowns generated at key points in the plan.

After calming down a bit, the group quickly boarded the transport ship.

With the engine spitting out blazing firelight, after leaving the ecological shield, with the operation of the jump engine, the transport ship was stretched and slender, and then suddenly disappeared.

"Go back and perform your duties." Fernand looked back.

………

Ulrich didn't speak to Theo along the way, but followed Theo back to the other party's room in a tacit understanding. After opening his twisted stance, Ulrich frowned slightly and said:

"We guessed right. Qinglong should have noticed something and recruited Sandro."

"Sandro doesn't know anything." Theo shook his head, "Besides, we are not conspiring to harm him. He thinks too much."

Ulrich was quite worried: "What I'm afraid of is that Qinglong thinks we are plotting to harm him. The sublimation device is almost ready, and the little ones in everyone's hearts are about to surface."

Theo glanced at Ulrich and was speechless. Do you think everyone has the same persecution delusion as you?

"For now, we and him are still one, and he should understand it." Theo mused: "The reason why he recruited Sandro is probably to determine what we are doing and prepare for a rainy day."

Having said this, he looked at Ulrich again: "What did that idiot Sandro say? I think it made you very angry."

When this matter was mentioned, Ulrich's face darkened, and he had no desire to discuss it at all: "He's just an idiot, I'm too lazy to talk to him."

Then, he asked again: "Are you sure you won't attack Qinglong?"

"There is no such order at the moment. The person behind me just asked me to keep an eye on him." Theo's face was calm, and you could clearly see Ulrich exhaled and seemed to be relieved.

Theo's dark eyes narrowed slightly and his voice was calm: "Are you afraid of attacking him?"

Ulrich smiled bitterly, "It's not that he's afraid, it's just that he's jealous. His origin is so mysterious that no one knows what's behind him."

"Is it bigger than the Xingyuan Empire?" Theo shook his head.

Ulrich added faintly: "You don't seem to represent the Xingyuan Empire behind you. The Grand Duke seems to be still sleeping."

Theo looked calm: "Since he is not dead, the Xingyuan Empire has the ability to save him, but it will take some time."

"You have already boarded the ship, and you still have to look ahead and behind. Is it difficult to choose between Qinglong and Grand Duke Gu Ya?"

Ulrich sighed helplessly. As he stayed in the Torch Organization for a longer time, he learned more and more.

He suddenly realized that he seemed to be on a pirate ship, and the situation he faced in the end might be very troublesome.

Besides, his old nest was seized by someone, and he had to find a place to go afterwards.

So, he decided to find a way out for himself, so he targeted Theo.

The "Flower of Casablanca" was obviously from the Xingyuan Empire. After two or three indirect attacks, he pried open Theo's mouth.

As an A-level life form, he didn't have too many wanted notices, so it was relatively easy for him to join a certain force.

However, he certainly would not consider ordinary civilizations. He did not want to retire and still had ambitions in his heart.

But it was not so easy for Xingyuan Empire to climb up.

It can be said without hesitation that they did not lack A-level life forms at all.

If you want to join them, you must bring certain merits. The core ruins of the sublimator civilization are obviously merits.

Although he was reluctant to fight against Qinglong, if he had to choose one, it would definitely be Grand Duke Gu Ya.

"Do you think that Grand Duke Gu Ya will accept me?" Ulrich was worried about this again.

"As long as you do what I say, there will be absolutely no problem." Theo said in a deep voice.

Ulrich nodded slowly. Their target was the core ruins, not Qinglong, but there might be conflicts because of this.

………

"Ulrich is such a bastard. He has looked down on me since the beginning, and he still looks down on me now."

"We are all A-level life forms, and I don't know what he is so crazy about all the time."

Sandro followed with a curse all the way, and took a look at the tall and short mechanical bodies at the door before coming to Qinglong's room.

Li Ming raised his hand to signal him to be silent and asked him to sit down, "Did you record it?"

"As you said, record the whole process." Sandro took out his smart terminal, searched awkwardly, and finally projected a holographic image, which was the conversation between him and Ulrich.

Li Ming watched the conversation between the two, and he didn't think Sandro could get anything out of Ulrich.

This time it was mainly to cover for him, although Sandro did act as he expected.

But Li Ming didn't put all his hopes on Sandro.

Thunder and Tepper had a backup plan. If Sandro didn't act, the two of them would naturally make a fuss, but it would be a lot more trouble.

Listening to this, Li Ming paused suddenly, with a strange look on his face, "Ulrich also worked as... a hostess?"

In the picture, Sandro was arguing with Ulrich, saying that he was just a hostess, and that he was lucky to be hired by Monroe, and that he was nothing before!

There were also some obscene words that were unbearable to hear, such as sleeping with others.

Sandro nodded, "Yes, Ulrich did work as a hostess male model for a while."

"What about other things?"

"I don't know much about the others, and those words were all made up by me to criticize him." Sandro explained awkwardly, and added: "Who told him to be an idiot when he opened his mouth and closed his mouth."

Reading the whole article, it was just the two of them exposing each other's sore spots.

Li Ming thought that Sandro understood the real meaning of his tough attitude, so he chose to take action.

But after reading it, he found that Sandro was really angry.

"…Don't think I don't know. When you were captured by the Grey Knights, you kowtowed to the leader of the other side for three hundred times, and then you acted like a clown and amused them for three days before they let you go."

"Do you think that after becoming a Class A life form, you can cover it up by killing that guy?"

After Ulrich said this with a dark face, Sandro directly punched him.

When Sandro saw this again, he looked embarrassed and couldn't help but explain:

"I was able to escape not because the other side let me go, but because I pretended to be humble and confused the other side, and then I found an opportunity to escape."

Li Ming smiled lightly and didn't care.

Perhaps feeling that his explanation was a bit of a cover-up, Sandro changed the subject again: "Unfortunately, I didn't get anything out of you this time."

"That's enough."

"Ah?" Sandro looked a little confused, but Li Ming didn't explain, but ordered him to leave.

Sandro got up at a loss, and when he walked to the door, he was stopped by Li Ming again.

"After a while, they may come back to you. That's when the main event will begin." Li Ming's eyes were as calm as water. "Don't make the wrong choice."

"Ah? What do you mean?" Sandro was even more confused. When he looked into Qinglong's eyes, he suddenly felt a chill.

He had already figured out the current situation. If Theo and Ulrich were not going to recruit him, even if they came to him, they would only be trying to get information about Qinglong.

After what happened today, the two sides were already clearly divided. Why did the other side come to him?

"I... I know." He responded, feeling an inexplicable pressure.

After leaving the door and carefully closing it, he breathed a sigh of relief.

In the room, Li Ming slowly exhaled, a piece of blood-colored alloy appeared in his hand, and he began to absorb it. Time passed by second by second.

The total amount of metal energy absorbed was close to 28 million, plus the remaining more than 1 million.

The balance was close to 30 million again, which was worth his efforts.

With his wallet full again, Li Ming felt relieved and began to think about what to do next.

"Connit left the Torch Organization with Corvis, and Fernand came back to take charge. Now, the Torch Organization has only one A-level life form."

"Dimensional crystals should be put on the agenda. It has not been upgraded for a long time, and I am a little impatient."

Li Ming pondered, "However, Deyes's test should be coming soon."

Deyes did not know the specific time when Connit left.

But his method was also very simple. He directly asked to meet with Connit and said that there was something important.

For several days in a row, the person in charge refused, claiming that Connit had something important to deal with.

"Remember, once the people from the Torch Organization try to stop you, you will stop immediately."

In Deyes' room, he looked at Brot, who was fully armed, calmly.

Wearing the ape-bone mecha, his already sturdy body looked even more muscular, but the mecha arms on his arms were removed.

He was wearing metal fist armor covering his arms, with layers of diamond-shaped metal armor plates, close to his skin, opening and closing like breathing.

Bang! Bang!

The fist armor hit his chest, and the sense of security of being covered all over gave Brot a great boost of confidence.

"Don't worry, it will take time for Connet to become a giant, I will stop in time."

"It may not be Connet who attacked, we are not familiar with him, don't bet." Deyes shook his head.

"Not Connet?" Brot was stunned. "Where did Connet go?"

He paused at this point. "You asked me to do it because you wanted..."

Deyes raised his hand to stop him from finishing his words. "Don't worry about it. Go."

Brott shook his head. Just as he was about to leave, he said, "Your mech is given to me. What will you do later? The aftermath of the battle will not be small."

"I will go to the core laboratory." Deyes had a plan. "That is the main base of the Torch Organization and is protected."

Brott was relieved and showed a grim smile. The armor on his head closed. When he turned around, he brought a gust of wind and went out.

Deyes looked calm. He quickly packed up his things, left the room, and walked quickly to the core laboratory.

"Anyway, Qinglong's hidden identity is definitely not for experiencing life."

Coming out of Theo's room, Ulrich pondered secretly.

These days, he has been discussing relevant matters with Theo and making plans.

What he fears most is not Qinglong's strength, but the other party's identity.

Even if we can create a mechanical body that can compete with S-level life forms, we need materials, and the Torch Organization has nothing.

"Besides, it doesn't mean that we must be his enemy. At worst, Theo will take action in the end, and I will just watch." Ulrich wanted the benefits but didn't want to take risks.
