637: Chapter 333 Hamr Divine Craftsman Infinite Hamr_2 637: Chapter 333 Hamr Divine Craftsman Infinite Hamr_2 Although compared to their business, this so-called chanical Court’s turnover is not much.

Even if it were another force starting a business, they wouldn’t care much, even if it were on a larger scale, it wouldn’t matter.

But this is a Casting Star chanic.

Once he decides to get involved, the share he wants will inevitably be significant, how can one not be prepared for it?

It’s not that they underestimate Lord Azure Dragon, but rather they are being overly cautious.

All technological and chanical creations belong to the realm of chanics, with many large arms dealers having Casting Star chanics seated behind them.

Breaking through is certainly not easy.

As various thoughts flashed through his mind, Li Ming glanced at the ti and left from the specialized training room.

Just as he stepped out, the Mimicry Vermilion Bird landed on his shoulder.

“Is the warehouse ready?” he asked.

“It’s ready, ten thousand chanical Bodies have been stored,” replied Vermilion Bird.

Li Ming nodded, walked through the base’s corridor, and entered the enormous warehouse at the far end.

Upon stepping inside, the Vermilion Bird on his shoulder dispersed; there were no surveillance devices here, nor any virtual imaging equipnt.

The warehouse was brightly lit, with hundreds of large chanical arms and transport-type tracks working tirelessly.

This place connected to the final assembly factory of chanical Soldiers, and every assembled chanical Soldier was stored here, layer by layer, hanging from transport tracks.

Walking to the center, Li Ming nodded as a circular tal platform on the ground quickly rose, lifting him to the very center of the chanical Soldiers array.

Then he stretched out his hands, and strands of golden sparks burst from his fingertips, landing on the nearest chanical Body and quickly proliferating, as large sparks of chanical electricity erupted, transferring from one to two, and two to four, growing exponentially.

Eventually, the entire array of chanical Soldiers was enveloped in golden sparks.

At the sa ti, however, the glow on the chanical Soldiers that first ca into contact with the golden sparks had already faded, like a surging tide, taking no more than five minutes in total, from inside to out.

The chanical Soldiers’ pupils moved, and Li Ming spoke ahead of them, “Vermilion Bird will connect to your systems and guide you.”

Hearing him say this, all the chanical Soldiers beca quiet, the tracks started moving, and they ca down one by one.

As an Artificial Intelligence enlightened by Li Ming himself, Vermilion Bird also has the ability to “temporarily supervise all Controlled Objects.”

“Tsk, six million tal energy…” Li Ming shook his head; the enlightened chanical Soldiers possess absolute loyalty and could not be changed by any program.

The only trouble before was the need for Control, but thanks to the ability of the chanical Sovereign, controlling them was akin to assembly.

However, this type of Control could not gain any abilities, nor could it be taken into the Control Space.

But for Li Ming, it was still worth the price.

These chanical Soldiers are made to a standard model, classified as Level D, and the Control Conditions require six thousand tal energy, which was the limit designed by Li Ming.

Without the chanical Sovereign, he would have had to expend an additional 60 million tal energy for Control, which would greatly slow his power’s start-up.

This base and the many production lines he built, coupled with these chanical Soldiers, have nearly depleted the remaining refined alloys.

One-third of these chanical Soldiers will be infused with chanical knowledge to engage in arms manufacturing.

The remaining two-thirds, after being equipped with weapons, will mingle with Grey Eyes’ rcenaries and undertake various tasks.

“What I need to do later is to co here periodically for Enlightennt…” Li Ming calculated that with the initial investnt and subsequent profits, there will be a continuous yield, becoming a self-sustaining cycle.

“After further expansion, we’ll move into the Mining Stars, take control of material refinent from the source, that is when we take off.”

“And all I need to do is look for the Energy required for upgrades, and regularly harvest to enhance my strength.”

He pondered, but these things could not be rushed.

“Master, there’s half an hour left until the eting.”

Exiting the warehouse, Vermilion Bird once again appeared on his shoulder, tily reminding him.

Li Ming nodded.

Ever since the chanical Court had gotten on track, a considerable number of things needed to be addressed in the initial stage.

etings for reporting and summarizing were held every three days.

He imdiately went to the core conference room.

Ulrich had already arrived early, preparing various materials.

Connet was there too, along with Sandro, with middle managers seated in two rows.

Seeing him arrive, Ulrich greeted him and looked around, saying, “Since everyone is here, let’s start early.”

Everyone sat upright, Ulrich looked towards Li Ming, Li Ming nodded, and then said:

“The issue of manpower we discussed last ti has basically been resolved.

The first batch of chanical Soldiers has been produced and set up with various configurations, and is now ready for application.”

Manpower was a major problem, as the rcenaries under Grey Eyes were all unskilled and couldn’t do technical work.

Even a highly automated assembly line required human labor.

Ulrich wasn’t surprised; once the assembly line was built, the first thing produced was the chanical Soldiers, and other items were postponed.

Nearly a month had passed, so results were expected.

“That’s even better, production efficiency can go up another level…” Connet nodded, “The arms company only has two months left until the delivery date, we’re still on schedule to et it…”

The two made a brief summary, and basically there were no major issues; it was all performance reports and the like, with the overall situation looking stable and improving.

Sandro had no say in these matters, silent as a gourd.

More than an hour later, the middle managers left one by one, leaving only Ulrich and Connet, until then their expressions turned grave.

“The arms dealers have been moving more frequently.

Three days ago, a batch of orders were canceled, and the other parties were even willing to pay a 10% penalty for breach of contract.”

“Which are the main arms dealers?” Li Ming asked, slightly frowning.

“Burke, Harren, Sibyl and a few others taking the lead, along with many more small and dium-sized arms dealers…” Ulrich said while massaging his brows, “Behind them are no lack of Casting Star chanics.”

He was also surprised; just as they were starting, they encountered such substantial resistance, which was indicative of how seriously those people were taking Azure Dragon.

“I’m afraid this blockade could create a domino effect, spilling over into other areas,” added Connet, sounding hesitant.

Their networking channels had already secured the first batch of business, but the competition was undercutting them with lower prices, leaving them with no recourse.

“Of course, with our current production capacity, we can’t take on more orders anyway, but if we’re considering expansion, we should prepare early,” Ulrich hesitated, “Should we maybe have Lord Azure Dragon make so introductions to those people?”

“Hmph, what’s there to introduce?

They dare to poach our orders; we dare to destroy their rchant ships,” Sandro said coldly, “It’s just a matter of who has the stronger fist.”

“It’s not that simple, how are we supposed to do business after that?” Ulrich frowned.

Connet added, “Lately, there have been a lot of unidentified ships added to the outskirts of the star system, probably trying to scout for information.”

“Hmm?” Li Ming’s gaze sharpened, they’re probing all the way to the main base?

“Lord Sandro is right, it’s just a contest of who has the bigger fist,” said Li Ming, aloof.

Sandro grinned smugly, casting an gleeful glance at Ulrich.

Ulrich frowned in response, trying to diate, “If we’re going to take action, we can only abandon this place.”

“Of course we’re not going after their rchant ships.

We’ll clean up the nearby area first,” Li Ming shook his head, the Chaotic Star Gap wasn’t truly chaotic.

Even the Zong Ya bandit from before knew to pick on the weak.

There was also an unspoken rule—power and influence had to be equivalent.

Only individuals of Overlord Level like Anduin could control each Star Gate in the Chaotic Star Gap.

Strength alone cannot support a large organization, but without enough strength, not even a power structure can be established.

“I fear many are eager to gauge the ttle of my ntor,” Li Ming comnted with a distant tone, as Ulrich and Connet exchanged glances; it was sothing they hadn’t dared to voice.

After the eting, his orders were quickly carried out.

Sandro personally took action, clearing the nearby star systems’ probing ships one by one.

Spies, perceiving the bad turn of events, hurriedly retreated, barely escaping disaster.
