_2 535: Chapter 281: Reversal – I’m Here to Fix Guns!
_2 Connet still has value, as he had originally intended to extract the precise coordinates of the Core Relics.
Of course, it also shows that Dark Night is soone who still seems to honor his promises.
If Dark Night had ignored his own needs to repair his gun and rigidly adhered to promises, actually killing everyone as Connet suggested, he would not have grown to his current level.
“Out of commitnt, I need to keep him alive this ti.
I hope none of you make this difficult for ,” Dark Night surveyed the surroundings, and everyone, not daring to object, nodded repeatedly.
“You’re going to be his bodyguard?” Theo carefully asked.
“How could that be.” Dark Night grinned and shook his head, “It’s just this one ti, once he’s recovered enough, it’s over.”
Theo slowly nodded, saying nothing.
The abrupt arrival of Dark Night steered the situation in an unexpected direction, outside everyone’s plans.
Soon after, several transport ships arrived at the damaged temporary base, carrying Connet, who was injured to a certain degree, onto the spacecraft.
Dark Night did not follow, seemingly unworried that soone might take the opportunity to target Connet’s life.
Indeed, that’s how it was.
Including Theo, everyone was extrely grateful just to be alive, let alone provoke soone daring enough to assassinate Duke Guya.
“This thing…” Ulrich raised his hand, pulling a small tal box from the rubble, which was ant for storing the Sublimator.
Theo’s face changed slightly.
According to the original plan, this item should have been his, but now with Dark Night’s arrival, he had requests from the Azure Dragon.
Naturally, Azure Dragon couldn’t command Dark Night, but this relationship was enough for him to be cautious, not to ntion that terrifying shot.
He didn’t know if Azure Dragon would keep the original promise, while Li Ming just glanced at him lightly and casually remarked, “It’s Theo’s item, ask him how to deal with it.”
Ulrich was surprised, he had deliberately brought up this item to gain favor.
Theo gave him a cold glance, took the small box, and it seed the boat of their friendship had broken.
“Shall we check out my gun?” Dark Night spoke up, and Li Ming imdiately nodded, and even at this mont, he remained suited up in his cha.
Everyone returned to the damaged temporary base, and under Ted’s furious gaze, settled down, slowly digesting everything that had happened today.
There were too many sudden reversals, too much information; they hadn’t yet processed it all.
The light strips flickered, and in a relatively intact room, Li Ming hesitated for a long ti but still took off his cha suit.
As the nanoflow covered the Tank Guard, Li Ming’s figure erged.
There was a hint of skepticism on Dark Night’s rugged face, “The technology you use to wear your cha suit is indeed unheard of.”
“It’s just a special technique from a small place, not worth ntioning,” Li Ming shook his head and then tentatively asked, “Can you see through the Mimic Mask I’m wearing on my face?”
“Can’t say I can with the naked eye, but… I can rember your information state,” Dark Night said frankly, “Don’t worry, I have no intention of investigating your true identity.”
They all mix in the dark side of things, knowing the unwritten rules.
Li Ming breathed a sigh of relief.
Dark Night hadn’t t Li Ming, so there’s no way he could know that Azure Dragon is Li Ming.
As long as he’s careful in the future not to let Li Ming, this alias, et Dark Night, at least making sure to have the ability to handle information state during any such encounters.
And now, Dark Night had already placed the long case he was carrying on the table.
Upon opening it, Li Ming’s eyes were instantly drawn to the sight; it was a pitch-black sniper rifle, as dark as ink, with golden lines like winding dragons all over its body.
Sleek yet solemn.
No man could resist such a fearso weapon.
Li Ming couldn’t help but reach out, and Dark Night raised his brows; his hand rose then rested again.
[Star Slaying Gun – S Level (Damaged): Crafted by a Casting Star chanic using the Star lting Furnace, taking three years to create.
Control Conditions: Seventy million tal energy
Control Effect: Shadow Concealnt Pursuit
Control Ability – Information State Erasure: Enemies hit by this gun will be erased from the universe.]
A bona fide S-Level Controlled Object, even though it’s damaged, it still requires seventy million tal energy to be controlled.
“What a Star Slaying Gun,” Li Ming exhaled slowly, “It combines killing and concealnt in one.”
A glint of sharpness flashed in Dark Night’s eyes, the rest was nothing, but he had so reputation too; if he purposely inquired, knowing the general information about this gun wasn’t difficult.
Knowing this gun also has hidden capabilities changes everything.
Except for the Casting Star chanic who forged this weapon, and him, almost no one else knows because it’s highly secretive.
This Azure Dragon really hasn’t disappointed him.
He recalled the energy attack; although he ca to seek the Azure Dragon’s help in repairing the gun,
he still couldn’t be sure whether the other party could fix it, including now.
The reason for his earlier gentle deanor was precisely because he witnessed that incredible energy attack.
Its destructive power was secondary; what was most important was the thod of attack, its manifestation, and the energy charging process, all of which greatly exceeded his expectations.
He’s not an expert in this field, but even by his own standards, he could tell it was extraordinary.
“So…” Dark Night showed an inquisitive look.
“Can it be repaired…” This was the main question, which Li Ming naturally answered affirmatively, but then added, “However, a large amount of materials is needed.”
To repair an S-Level Controlled Object, it can only be fixed through the Control thod.
Control requires seventy million, and at least materials containing ninety million tal energy are needed, which he definitely couldn’t procure himself.
“Hmm, I understand…” Dark Night pondered, then took out his smart terminal, shook it, only to find there was no network; the recent battle had destroyed the temporary base’s network center.
“I can open the Black Hole Network; whatever materials are needed, just purchase them directly.”
Li Ming couldn’t help narrowing his eyes, sensing a certain “powerful” presence.
His mind stirred; he estimated the repair would cost about ten to twenty million, but he still needed to et the Control requirents, making the total value provisionally high.
If he were to buy them on the Black Hole Network, perhaps it would cost up to a hundred billion Star Coins—this price…
he wasn’t sure if Dark Night could accept it.
“No go…” Dark Night frowned again, “So core materials are too rare, even the Black Hole Network would take at least half a year…
or even longer to transport them.”
Li Ming’s eyes brightened, he pondered, “I might have a way; I can purify the necessary materials through mass low-grade materials refining…”
“Oh?” Dark Night’s heart shook, “Is that possible?”
“The consumption might be extrely high.” Li Ming said helplessly: “The cost of the materials might increase several tis over.”
“How much do you estimate is needed?” Dark Night inquired.
“No less than a hundred billion on the Black Hole Network,” Li Ming ventured.
This price was not a trap for Dark Night; the Control would cost seventy million, and Li Ming estimated the repair to be over ten million, potentially more.
Plus the Black Hole Network’s markup, a hundred billion Star Coins of materials would at most produce ninety million tal energy.
It could be said, there was no middleman’s profit made.
“A hundred billion…” Dark Night frowned slightly; even just the value of the materials had exceeded his expectations.
The prices for each of his commitnts were naturally extrely high, but so were the costs.
However, urgency beckoned, and if a person ran into trouble, all the money in the world would be useless.
“No problem.” Dark Night said sternly, then looked back at the man who might be a Casting Star chanic, “And what about your additional compensation?”
Li Ming paused, “There’s additional compensation?”
“You don’t want a labor fee?” Dark Night was surprised.
“Yes.” Li Ming asserted firmly; this brother Dark Night was an honest person.
In Li Ming’s view, the other party’s strength was enough to control all of them, soone he couldn’t contend with at the mont, so he was very cautious, not taking advantage of the situation.
Unexpectedly, Dark Night initiated the subject.
Dark Night pondered, “Generally speaking, the fee for this kind of repair is around 20% of the total cost, which can also be paid with materials.”
Hearing this, Li Ming suddenly asked, “Your Excellency Dark Night, can you get A-Level Genetic Seeds?”
“A-Level Genetic Seeds?” Dark Night was quite surprised, looking Li Ming up and down.
