This is not mechanical ascension.

Li Ming arrived very early and looked around the hall from a corner. He felt strange. Did Ulrich turn the anniversary celebration into an annual meeting?

Perhaps he had not studied the festivals of Blue Star carefully, so Li Ming did not care. Instead, he felt strange about the atmosphere in front of him.

He did not pay much attention to the internal management situation. He thought it would be the kind of wolf culture that was rolled to the extreme. How come it looks so harmonious?

Could this be Ulrich's style?

Ulrich was not there. Li Ming casually asked Zhuque on his shoulder, "Has Old Wu changed his nature? Why does he feel completely different from the people under his command at the beginning?"

Zhuque responded: "Sir Ulrich said that the Mechanical King's Court will exist for a long time, and these people are carefully selected talents.

Their descendants are equally outstanding. After special training, they are an endless reserve talent pool."

"You can take up your post when you are an adult, and the probability of external spies appearing is greatly reduced."

Li Ming touched his nose when he heard this. Isn't this a black-hearted capitalist?

Ulrich's thinking was far-reaching. Not bad... not bad...

Li Ming roughly estimated that there were about three or four thousand people in the whole hall, all of whom were small life forms, and their height would not exceed two meters and five.

"I don't know how many spies there are-"

Table 1, a circle of ten people, only four interstellar humans, and those who can sit here are basically talents who have made special contributions to the royal court.

"I don't know if Lord Qinglong will show up." Someone suddenly spoke up, pinching a piece of purple meat in his hand, throwing it into his mouth, chewing.

"The royal court is just a small industry, how could the God Craftsman show up." Another person shook his head, a Yanren, with red skin and red hair on the surface of his skin, wearing a short skirt, with expectation in his eyes, "It's good that Lord Li Ming shows up."

"Sera, I heard that you met Lord Li Ming two months ago?" She suddenly turned her head, and tiny flames gushed out of her two nostrils: Isn't he handsome? "

"Almost burned me. "Sera is an interstellar human, she stepped back with a look of disgust, "Your aesthetics are very different from humans, why do you care about this?"

"It is said that Lord Li Ming is still single." She looked longing.

"Ugh~" Sera made a retching gesture, "Sister, I have normal aesthetics, there is no way I would like you, and you are also reproductively isolated."

"So what, can't I just think about it?" She rolled her eyes.

Sera was speechless, turned to look at another girl beside her, and said: "Kaina, I think you have a good chance."

"Don't you also have a special liking for Lord Li Ming?"

Kaina's cheeks flushed slightly, she couldn't help but touch the necklace on her neck, and shook her head and said: "How is it possible."

"How is it impossible, you are all interstellar humans, it is said that Lord Li Ming is not very old, if you really get close to him, don't forget me. "Sera chuckled.

"What do you mean by hanging out?" Kaina said helplessly.

"Ahem--" The loud sound from the loudspeaker immediately silenced the noise in the hall. Ulrich arrived, wearing a well-fitting suit, with his tail swinging behind him.

"Dear colleagues--" He smiled and spoke a few polite words, humorous and witty, causing bursts of laughter.

"So, in order to thank colleagues who have made special contributions to the royal court, we have prepared generous gifts--"

"Jannis--, Outstanding Employee Award, has not rested for a month in a row, and discovered the details of the assembly line. The reward is 500,000 star coins!"

Applause came from below, and a purple-skinned earth spirit went up to receive the award.

"There is actually an award ceremony. "Li Ming watched, feeling inexplicably moved, and also felt a little interesting, watching quietly.

One link after another, various activities, programs, and various speeches, two or three hours passed quickly.

"Of course, this celebration also has a special guest-" Ulrich paused, looking at the pairs of expectant eyes under the stage, and said sonorous and powerful: "Lord of the Royal Court, His Excellency Li Ming!"

"Wow, he's really here." Sera pulled Kaina beside her and shook her non-stop.

Almost as soon as Ulrich's voice fell, a figure appeared beside him, it was Li Ming, and the spotlight naturally fell.

Li Ming just came to go through the motions, nothing more than strengthening the cohesion of his subordinates, and said some polite words.

"".. Don't let the Royal Court down, the Royal Court will not let you down-" Li Ming was calm in his heart, but his voice was sonorous and powerful, and the applause and cheers continued.

He bowed slightly, and when he was about to walk down, his eyes couldn't help but move slightly.

A figure suddenly stood up below. Kaiina ignored the stunned eyes of her companions and quickly came to the stage.

There was a defense array composed of mechanical bodies under the stage. This thin woman naturally couldn't break in, but such a big move also attracted the attention of quite a few people.

Ulrich frowned slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Sir Li Ming." Kaiina shouted loudly. Li Ming stared at her, and then waved his hand to signal the mechanical body to move aside.

In the eyes of everyone, she came to the edge of the stage, her face flushed slightly.

"What do you have to do?" Li Ming glanced at her. She was an interstellar human, a D-level life form, and had no special features.

"I--I have something to give you." Kaiina seemed quite forgetful.

"Oh?" Li Ming was a little strange. After thinking about it, he raised his hand slightly, and an invisible force carried her to the stage.

"It's this -" Kaiina seemed afraid to look directly at Li Ming, stretched out her delicate fingers, took off the sapphire necklace from her neck, held it in her hand, and said in a sincere voice: "This - this is my mother The necklace left behind can keep people safe.”

Keep people safe?

Li Ming raised his eyebrows, but didn't care, and smiled: "Thank you very much."

Reaching out to take it, his pupils suddenly contracted, but they calmed down almost instantly, and there was no stagnation in his movements.

After sending the necklace out, Kaiina turned around, looked around at the steps, and left in a bit of a hurry.

"By the way, what's your name?" Li Ming suddenly asked.

"Ka---Kaina" she responded in a low voice, and hurried down the steps. After returning to her seat, she lowered her head and said nothing, her cheeks were red, she seemed to be extremely shy, and there were bursts of laughter all around. .

"Kaina--" Li Ming's eyes flashed slightly and he sneered in his heart. The sisters of the cult are really determined to change.

Necklace in hand--

[Secret Energy Gem-Special Type: It contains the spiritual source of the prophet.

Control conditions: 100 million metal energy control ability - Parasitism: You can place your spiritual body in it, and your spiritual power will not flow away naturally.

(Note: The original spiritual body needs to be expelled)]

There is part of that prophet's spiritual power hidden here, and it seems to be a spiritual control method.

One hundred million metal energy is still in the S-level category.

His eyes flickered, but the woman took the risk to send the necklace. I'm afraid it needs to be within a certain range to have an effect.

There won’t be much else to do next. Once we finish eating, we can all go back to our homes.

After Li Ming stepped down, Ulrich quickly gathered around and asked, "Do you want to handle it?"

"No need for now, give me her information." Li Ming shook his head.

Ulrich was a little surprised, but still nodded, and a piece of information was quickly passed over.

"You've actually been lurking here for more than half a year. You're so patient—."

Li Ming glanced at it and knew clearly in his heart that this person should have been carefully selected. There was no clue on the surface, his life level was not high, and he had been reviewed by the Mechanical Royal Court.

In the past six months, he has not shown any clues, and he is even an excellent employee.

"However, for me now, this doesn't seem to be bad news -" Li Ming thought in his mind, "Maybe we can use this to get to the other party's lair, and tsk... carry out a wave of looting."

"I don't know what strength they have, but the Tanwei has been upgraded."

The lair of this secretive force is so deep that it is impossible to find it under normal circumstances.

Li Ming thought in his mind, "However, the problem now is how to deceive this guy in his hand. Mind control is not easy to deceive. Li Ming thought deeply. In the public, the necklace in his hand may also be afraid of being hidden. The local Qinglong discovered the clues,

and took no action.

He first stuffed the gem necklace, opened the smart terminal, and quickly issued a few instructions. Soon several robots arrived and took out several metal boxes.

Li Ming opened them one by one, and the things inside had different shapes. These were prototype products that could withstand spiritual attacks.

For more than half a year, he had his people create all kinds of weird gadgets just in case of emergencies.

"Well --- this should meet my requirements." Li Ming touched a clown-shaped metal mask.

[Pseudo-state mask--Level B], the ability is [Mental pseudo-state: disguise the mental body, which can create the illusion of successful attack. 】

Taking control quietly, Li Ming pulled it all the way up and used a Stone of Terrax to upgrade to S level, consuming nearly 100 million metal energy.

As Li Ming expected, the ability has completely transformed [Mimetic Soul: The false spiritual body will cover the real spiritual body. All external attacks will be borne by the false spiritual body at the first time, and it will have absolute control over the false spiritual body. . 】

After taking control, he suddenly felt enveloped in warmth.

"This is what I want." Li Ming breathed a sigh of relief before leaving the banquet hall.

After a calm journey, we returned to the core base and came to our room, after the door was locked.

He casually took out the sapphire necklace, dangled it in front of his eyes, and seemed to be studying it.

"Keeping people safe? Interesting-" He mumbled and threw it on the table.

Almost as soon as he closed his eyes, he felt a stinging sensation from a needle, which was a warning from the mimetic soul.

Then, he suddenly felt that his vision was infinitely withdrawn, and everything was dark around him. He could only see everything outside through the two small windows in front of him.

"These are my own eyes." Li Ming felt quite strange. He could clearly feel that the mimetic soul was intervened and controlled by an external force, but at the same time, he could also tear apart this control at any time.

"How can his spiritual body be so tough?" In the gem necklace, part of the prophet's spiritual body gradually emerged, almost illusory.

Looking at the distracted Li Ming in front of him, he still felt a sense of joy.

She finally succeeded, and it was not in vain that she cut off part of her spirit and spent a "secret energy gem", which can cover up the mental fluctuations to the greatest extent.

If the distance is even closer, there will be almost no mental fluctuations.

"What's your name?" A voice suddenly sounded in the dark space around him.

Li Ming suddenly had a new feeling. The memory of the mimic soul was completely under his control, and everything he knew was what he allowed to know.

His heart moved slightly, and the mimetic soul replied without emotion: "Li Ming."

"Who is your teacher?"

"Blue Dragon."

"Where is he?"

"have no idea."

The prophet was slightly stunned and continued to ask: "How could you not know?"

Li Ming was silent and helpless. In order to avoid being discovered by Qinglong, she could only use the most basic mental control and did not dare to move too much.

"Let's make plans first -" she suppressed her excitement and ordered in a low voice: "Have someone contact Kayina and ask her to come to you."

Li Ming, who seemed lost in thought, opened the smart terminal and quickly sent a few instructions.

More than ten minutes later, the room door opened, and the seemingly shy Keina walked in.

"You - you are looking for me?" she whispered.

"It has been successful." The sudden voice in the empty room made Kaiina's face change greatly.

"Don't worry, I asked him. There is no monitoring equipment here." The prophet added.

Kaiina breathed a sigh of relief, her expression calmed down, and she looked Li Ming up and down.

"Okay, let's start taking the seeds." the prophet urged.

"ah?"

When Li Ming in the mental space heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned. He just took my seed. Aren't you going to take me away?

If he were in control of his body, his face would definitely be dark right now.

"Yeah, I thought I could follow the clues and find the home of the Sisters." Li Ming was speechless. Naturally, he couldn't let others take his seeds. He was ready to take over his body and blast the opponent immediately.

At this moment, Kaiina touched his skin, her face suddenly froze, her pupils dilated, and she exclaimed in surprise: "This life strength..." S-class life form! ? "

"Huh?" Li Ming paused for a moment. This woman is not simple at all. She doesn't know what kind of abilities she hides, but she can actually find out that he is an S-class life form.

"What S-class life form?" The prophet's spiritual body was a little confused for the first time. After he started to react, it was equally unbelievable: "Is he an S-class life form?"

"How is this possible? He - he -" the prophet was filled with emotion and suddenly said: "No wonder the mental power is so strong -."

"His development potential is far beyond level 60. It's too terrifying. How could there be such a life form-"

The prophet seemed to be stimulated and kept mumbling, and then suddenly said: "Wait - don't take the seeds yet."

"Um?"

Kaiina's throat rolled, and her white cheeks were flushed, which was caused by congestion caused by her heart beating too fast.

Only then did he come to his senses and turned his head blankly, "Aren't you going to take the seeds?"

"Take him away directly!" the prophet said solemnly.

"Take people away?" Kaiina's heart palpitated, "This is not our plan. If we take people away, Qinglong will definitely be furious."

Their plan was just to get some seeds, they didn't plan to do anything to Li Ming, and they didn't want to become enemies with Qinglong for the time being.

The prophet said firmly: "Even if Qinglong is furious, he may not know that we did it. He is too valuable to be born naturally. He must have many secrets in him. He must be taken back to study."

"S-class life form, biological age is less than twenty-five years old. Do you know what this concept is?" The prophet's spiritual body said firmly: "Listen to my order, change the plan now, and you must take him back!"

Kaiina's eyes flickered, and finally she nodded solemnly, "I understand."
