What to Do…_2 Li Ming quickly said, “It won’t take more than half a month before you see again.
I’ll find a way to make up for the lost ti and won’t delay the weapons repair for you.”
“Fine.” Dark Night reluctantly nodded, he had already given plenty of face to Azure Dragon.
It wasn’t just because of this brief conversation but also because of the chanical body that arrived not long ago, covered in traces of the nano-curse.
But after coming out from Azure Dragon’s workshop, it was mostly repaired, and that was a nano-curse.
Dark Night knew very well that no chanic could repair the nano-curse; since Azure Dragon possessed the capabilities of a Casting Star chanic, there was no need to deceive him unnecessarily.
After taking care of Dark Night, Li Ming said a few words and hurriedly left.
…
anwhile, in the majestic and grand top level of the interstellar fortress, Asimara stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, overlooking the ambush fleet returning like a steel dragon.
She wore a refined and form-fitting combat armor, which was not cumberso but instead outlined her figure, adding a bit of heroic elegance.
“Antonio arrived much sooner than I had anticipated…” Her voice was indifferent, and although it was a complete victory, having the coordinates leaked was not good news.
They had now beco targets, solid ones, true, but no target withstands dark arrows coming from all directions.
The many commanders behind her were each doing their duties, various orders being dispatched thodically from here to the entire United Fleet.
Monts later, hurried footsteps ca from behind; it was Feder with a strange look on his face and a touch of confusion.
“Your Highness…” Feder whispered, and Asimara, without turning her head, asked, “Is it confird?”
“It’s confird; it was Azure Dragon who leaked the coordinates to Antonio.” Feder replied quietly.
“I thought so.” Asimara was not surprised at all; it was as if she had guessed it, her voice cold, “What do you think, what is Li Ming up to?”
Feder was startled internally, “That…
I’m not sure.”
Previously, although Asimara knew of his sources of information, she had never exposed him; he didn’t know what had changed today.
“To betray his teacher Azure Dragon, a Casting Star chanic with countless thods at his disposal, why does he keep leaking information about his teacher?” Asimara seed to be talking to herself.
“That’s because I exchanged it for other information with him…” Feder thought resentfully.
However, Asimara seed to have guessed his thoughts and continued, “The exchange is just a ans to an end; without the intention to betray, there would be no exchange of information, just like you.”
Feder’s heart skipped a beat as a sudden realization struck him; it indeed was so.
His unreserved exchange of extrely confidential intelligence with Li Ming sprang from his loss of reverence and admiration for Asimara, for his father, and even for the Yitelan Civilization.
So what had Li Ming gone through, to trade so unreservedly with him?
He had pondered this question before but never delved deeply.
From the corner of her eye, Asimara waved her hand, Feder nodded, and silently left.
Asimara walked straight to the small room in the command center; after closing the door, she opened the smart terminal, seemingly contacting soone.
After a while, a voice ca from the terminal, “Do you believe now?”
“Connet…” Asimara uttered a startling na, her eyes cold, “You were right; the coordinates were indeed leaked to Antonio by Azure Dragon.”
“Then what are you hesitating for, don’t you trust ?
He made a fool of , causing Torch heavy losses, why would I still need to deceive you?” Connet said coldly.
“Release those prisoners from last ti, and I can tell you the whereabouts of Li Ming.”
“That’s not a trap, is it?” Asimara was very cautious.
Connet scoffed, “A trap?
If I were to leak Azure Dragon’s whereabouts, that might indeed be a trap but that’s his student, a C, no…
a B Level life form.”
“You don’t even need to dispatch an A Level life form to easily capture him, and I went to great lengths just to trap and kill a few B Level life forms like you, does that seem logical to you?”
Asimara’s brows were tightly knit.
It really was true; after all, given Li Ming’s strength, even if she took precautions, she would only need to deploy an A Level life form for support at most.
In the current situation, was there any sense in ambushing to kill one of their A Level life forms, especially one not directly descended from Yitelan?
Wait a mont…
Asimara’s heart skipped a beat, “What did you say, Li Ming is a B-class Life Form!?”
“Surprised, aren’t you…”
“How is that possible…” Asimara murmured, “When he left Blue Star, he was clearly just a D-class Life Form.
How much ti has passed…”
Speaking of which, Asimara’s eyes suddenly filled with intense flas, “Just how high is his Developnt Potential?”
She wasn’t asking Connet, but questioning herself.
“Okay, I promise you, the mont I capture Li Ming, I will release those captives,” Asimara said gravely.
“Release half of them first,” Connet further requested.
“Okay,” Asimara decisively nodded.
“Three days later, Li Ming will appear on the ‘Luxury Wine Fleet,'” Connet said, cutting off the chance for Asimara to ask further questions, and ended the communication.
“Luxury Wine Fleet?” Asimara frowned, excitent uncontrollably surging in her amber eyes.
She turned to look towards the center of the United Fleet, at the glittering blue diamond-shaped phantom body, suddenly realizing.
Her gains might not just be limited to the Core Relics.
…
Thud!
Clack!
Bang Bang!
The jarring music washed over like surging waves, one after another.
Multi-colored lights shone down from all over the ceiling, the dance floor mixed with a variety of indescribable scents, and even with high-power air purifiers, it was hard to cleanse the odors released by the heavily scent-marking Interstellar species.
Li Ming frowned deeply, disliking this atmosphere, passing by various oddly shaped, frantically writhing Life Forms.
Suddenly, he paused, a silky, sticky black tentacle dropped out from beneath a leopard-spotted female Life Form’s miniskirt, with taut leopard ears above her head, followed by a long moan.
The tentacle belonged to a black sli, whose limbs were all tentacle-like and could extend freely, dressed in a neat suit.
Li Ming’s mouth twitched as he cautiously passed by these individuals, finally reaching the vicinity of the bar, which was sowhat quieter.
“One drink…” Li Ming pulled out a silver coin stamped with a barrel, placed it on the counter, glanced at the drink nu, and pondered, “Fiery Breath…”
“Coming right up…” the bartender, equipped with multiple auxiliary prosthetic arms, quickly turned around.
Li Ming’s gaze beca distant, the Red River Star Stream had many gathering places along the way, mostly paradises for Chaotics.
Such places sounded formidable, but in reality, they ca with significant risks.
Because they are immovable, they easily beco places for erging powers or new nobles of a civilization to accumulate rit.
Only the mobile Land of Stars developed relatively well.
And to avoid such risks, within the Red River Star Stream, there were also many constantly moving gathering places.
The Luxury Wine Fleet was one of them, composed of over one hundred and fifty Warships, its owner being an A-class Life Form known as the “Wine Beau”.
The most peculiar aspect was that the Warships were basically stripped of their fire control parts, keeping only the engines and the upgraded energy generation devices.
After the arrival of the Tidal Period of the Red River Star Stream, the Luxury Wine Fleet sold what could be called exorbitantly priced “Star Stream Tickets”.
Within twenty days, the Luxury Wine Fleet would delve deep into the core region of the Red River Star Stream, experiencing various unseen Interstellar spectacles.
Besides those who purchased Star Stream Tickets, many adventurers and Scavengers also ca to rest or indulge temporarily.
The currency used here was “Luxury Coin”, one thousand Star Coins each, which could be spent in casinos, bars, the red-light district, or anywhere else.
“Sir, your Fiery Breath…” A magma-like red drink was placed in a specially made tall glass and brought in front of him.
Li Ming picked up the glass, looked it over for a while, opened his mouth, and downed it in one gulp.
The fiery liquid was scalding hot, as if magma sliding down his throat.
“Sir!” The bartender was shocked, only relaxing after seeing the person in front of him remaining unfazed.
