Having too deep a connection with other forces—if an incident occurs, should he save them or not?

What if it happens to be sothing Li Ming can’t handle alone, and Lord Azure Dragon has to intervene? Should he act or not?

“We just need to focus on business.” Li Ming emphasized, and Ulrich nodded.

“Additionally, I plan to establish a Dinsion Exploration Departnt, tasked with investigating the Dinsion World. This will be led by Lord Theo upon his return,” Li Ming assigned.

“I’ll invite Lord Austin to assist us in stabilizing the pathway to the Dinsion World permanently.”

Dinsion World is a treasure he will not abandon, but exploring it himself consus too much ti—he prefers to reap the benefits instead.

“Understood.” Theo’s response was as succinct as ever.

“Our primary goal remains unchanged: expansion.” Li Ming scanned the room, his voice resolute. “If there are any obstacles, I will address them. If I cannot, I’ll seek my teacher’s assistance.”

He stood up. “Everyone, the Interstellar Summit is waiting for us!”

“The Interstellar Summit!”

The group rose in unison to echo his sentint. Even Ulrich couldn’t help but feel a ripple of emotion within. After all, why were they investing so much of their resources into this? It was because Lord Azure Dragon was paving the way—a future of endless possibilities.

Li Ming was leading the overall strategy, while the intricate details fell to Ulrich and the others.

After the eting, Ulrich escorted Li Ming to the warehouse. This facility had an extraordinarily high confidentiality level. Multiple levels of advanced tallic materials had been employed in its construction.

Although relatively small in scale, after passing through layer upon layer of verification, they finally reached the Constant Star Crystal Core stored inside.

The brilliant tallic luster caused Li Ming to narrow his eyes slightly as he stepped straight inside.

After shutting the warehouse door, Li Ming remained inside for a full half-day before finally erging, exhaling deeply.

Ulrich was still waiting outside. From the corner of his eye, he glimpsed the now-empty warehouse through the tallic door’s gap.

The item is gone?

He mused internally—had it been directly sent to Lord Azure Dragon by so ans?

He wasn’t certain what Li Ming planned to do with these tallic materials—he assud it was a request from Lord Azure Dragon.

Li Ming’s eyes glead brightly: six billion, five hundred million in tal energy—the highest amount achieved so far.

He was now itching to spend it.

“The chanical body warehouse is over here…” Ulrich pivoted. Li Ming had intended to head over but hesitated, his intuition stirring. “Let’s wait a bit; there’s no need to rush for now.”

Ulrich paused briefly, then nodded.

Li Ming hurried away, but before leaving, he reminded Ulrich, “Lord Ulrich, sothing might arrive in the next couple of days. Make sure to deliver it to directly.”

“Understood.” Ulrich nodded. After watching Li Ming depart, Ulrich opened his smart terminal.

Back in his room, the layout was unchanged—still familiar.

Six billion, five hundred million in tal energy; he needed a precise plan.

The Infinite Hamr required ten billion, leaving a shortfall of three billion, five hundred million—a significant number that couldn’t be t in the short term.

So, he decided to control the Divine Craftsman Relic first.

Li Ming retrieved the Divine Craftsman Relic, which stored all the technology of the Hamr Divine Craftsman. He began by extracting the data, copying it to Vermilion Bird, and assigning it to organize the information.

The data was far from useless—extrely valuable, in fact. Items such as the Photon Storm Field and Superstring Resonator were imnsely practical, alongside blueprints for various weaponized chanical constructs. These were remarkably helpful for producing high-end chanical bodies.

Then, decisively, he expended two billion in tal energy to control the Divine Craftsman Relic before directly consuming it.

The control page erged, distorted, its text cloaked in radiant hues.

[chanical Sovereign] → [chanical Lord]

With the promotion, [chanical Lord] was now classified as a Sixth Rank Profession.

[chanical Lord: Possesses the abilities of [Lord Power] and [Guard Squad]].

[Lord Power: Allows the utilization of tal energy to execute ultra-scale modifications, repairs, enhancents, and constructs on Controlled Objects. Constructs have a small probability of [mutation]].

[Guard Squad: Enables the construction of six chanical bodies with the [Guard] trait.]

Li Ming examined the description carefully. The promotion had bolstered two capabilities—”large-scale” was now “ultra-scale,” and a new feature, [mutation], was introduced.

The chanical Guards increased by two units, which Li Ming had expected.

However, his curiosity focused on the feature [mutation].

[Mutation: During the constructing process, chanical bodies have a 0.1% probability of advancing one level, and a 0.01% probability of advancing two levels without additional tal energy consumption. Advancents cannot exceed the host’s level.]

Li Ming blinked, his expression shifting. The [Mutation] feature was highly potent. Triggering this ability didn’t entail additional tal energy expenses.

Though the probability was exceedingly low, the sheer scale of operations could make up for it.

“Ha! Good thing I exercised caution.” Li Ming exhaled deeply—the likelihood that his profession’s abilities were tied to enlightening chanical bodies had prompted him to hold off on the enlightennt process.

Now eager to test it out, he imdiately headed for the chanical body warehouse to experint with the new abilities…

Leaving the room, he boarded a flying device and headed straight for the expanded chanical body warehouse. Its scale had increased more than tenfold, with chanical constructs stacked layer upon layer—like a majestic mountain made entirely of tal.

The exteriors glinted with a cold, hard sheen. Every part was a precise fit; the streamlined designs were sharp and orderly. The intricate, overlapping structures dazzled the eye.

As the door to the warehouse shut behind him, Li Ming stepped forward, entering the heart of the chanical constructs. Extending his limbs, arcs of electricity burst from his fingertips, streaming out in brilliant blue streaks.

Like the hidden veins of this tallic mountain, the currents began spreading rapidly. Sparks danced along its surface, crackling and reverberating like distant Thunderclap filling the valleys.

From afar, it appeared like a frozen storm of tal and machinery.

Suddenly, at one particular location, a white arc exploded violently, twisting like a frenzied blue snake.

chanical components encased in the arc scattered everywhere like a rain of tal, each piece vibrating, deforming, and reshaping under the impact of powerful energy, becoming more refined and formidable.

This was only the first occurrence—white arcs erupted across hundreds of locations.

Unexpectedly, a blast of blue energy erupted from one spot, triggering an even more intense transformation. The collision of tal resonated deafeningly, as sparks shot out like dazzling fireworks.

Energy surged madly within the chanical body, glowing blindingly from its seams, illuminating the entire area in vivid blue.

Under this light, the chanical body’s form began morphing into sothing entirely new—more sophisticated and powerful.

A pair of chanical horns erged from its head, glinting with icy light, capable of piercing through any obstacle effortlessly. Standing three ters tall, its towering form exuded suffocating pressure.

Its chanical limbs were massive, radiating strength through their muscular, tallic contours. Its glowing blue chanical eyes rotated incessantly.

A faint blue Energy Shield shimred across its surface, while electricity slithered like serpents across its fra.

After the enlightennt process ended, Li Ming approached this chanical body, scrutinizing it closely. Through a few tests, he confird its level had reached B-level.

Constructing one hundred thousand D-level chanical bodies had consud six million tal energy. Among them, over a hundred ascended to C-level, and only one advanced to B-level.

Li Ming sighed but understood that the chanical bodies were too low-level. An elevation in tier would make this B-level machine an A-level.

However, raising the tier of these chanical constructs required resources exponentially greater than a re doubling—more likely tenfold or beyond.

The warehouse door reopened, and Ulrich was still waiting outside. Li Ming seed slightly surprised but stated, “These chanical bodies are now ready for deploynt.”

“Understood.” Ulrich nodded, then explained his purpose, holding a black box. “This just arrived. The recipient is Lord Azure Dragon, sent via Giant Shield Company courier. As instructed, it’s been delivered imdiately.”

“Oh.” Li Ming’s eyes glinted as he accepted the tal box, noting its surprisingly light weight.

“Thank you, Lord Ulrich. I’ll be on my way.” Li Ming nodded and departed.

Ulrich stepped into the warehouse to assign the chanical bodies to their destinations.

Yet, as soon as he entered, he froze, staring in astonishnt at the imposing bull-headed chanical construct.

When did we manufacture sothing like this?
