Robbin was so frightened he could hardly breathe when he heard this.
Just two days later, the Lizard Man arrived at the rendezvous point with the fake Robbin, a giant warship hovering outside a star gate node.
Entering the warship, after layers of verification, he brought Robbin to face a burly figure with a fearso wolfish head, thick pink fur all over the body, bare chest, exuding a ferocious aura.
"Lord Ivan, the mission target has been brought." The Lizard Man bowed his head.
"Mission target?" Ivan’s gaze fell on Robbin, who appeared dazed. His nostrils twitched slightly, and his mouth curled into a chilling grin, revealing sharp teeth that made one shiver.
The Lizard Man looked quite proud: "Indeed, that chanical Court is all show and no substance. I’ve been lurking there for so long, and they still haven’t..."
Before he could finish speaking, the Lizard Man suddenly felt a terrifying presence approaching, as if a gaping mouth had opened towards him, and his heart seed like it was being squeezed.
"L-Lord, you... you..." The Lizard Man was bewildered with fear, and when he ca to his senses, he was already lifted by his neck.
"Open your eyes and take a good look." Ivan’s voice was cold as he exhaled a green mist to envelop the so-called Robbin.
Then, Robbin’s skin quickly lted, revealing a chanical frawork beneath a pained expression.
"chanical Body?" The Lizard Man’s eyes widened with shock: "I... I clearly verified the genes."
"Fool, this is advanced mimicry..." Ivan tossed the Lizard Man to the ground with a frosty expression: "Wasting four months just to bring this."
"They discovered long ago?" The Lizard Man was bewildered, "But why didn’t they act against ?"
Suddenly, his face showed a drastic change, "They tracked here?"
"Not entirely stupid." Ivan sneered: "No one is tracking you; this must be just a warning."
"A warning?" The Lizard Man was surprised: "Azure Dragon’s warning?"
"But... he’s brave enough to expose even Prince Ryan..."
"That’s the problem. Even if Azure Dragon is timid, he wouldn’t be too scared to kill even you." Ivan’s beast-like eyes glinted with cold light: "There’s sothing wrong here."
The Lizard Man cautiously got up, then heard Ivan say sternly: "Let’s go to the chanical Court."
"To the chanical Court?" The Lizard Man was so frightened he nearly fell again, "You’re going directly, to act openly?"
"Azure Dragon must have an issue now; he used this petty trick to stall ." Ivan’s eyes flashed coldly: "It’s a rare opportunity."
"But what if it’s a trap?" The Lizard Man warned.
"If he had the intention to set a trap, why didn’t he follow you, you fool, directly here?" Ivan retorted, leaving the Lizard Man speechless.
Ivan decisively adjusted the warship’s direction and headed straight into the chanical Court.
Two days later, the giant warship leaped out from the star gate, being a strange advanced warship, required a series of verifications.
But he was already impatient and imdiately leaped out of the ship, rushing towards the outer space. The chanical Court was already in sight.
The pink fur fluttered in the wind, but he didn’t actually attack directly. Instead, he concealed himself.
"Azure Dragon is probably not here." Ivan sniffed, his eyes gleaming.
However, just as the aura retracted and prepared to move, lights unwound around him, forming symbols quickly encasing his surroundings.
"Not good!"
Ivan’s heart suddenly surged with a bad premonition, instinctively wanting to escape, but felt dizzy, the chanical Court ahead and the star gate node behind infinitely stretching.
"This place is..." Ivan’s face was ugly, looking around, realizing he had fallen into a void space, endless in front and behind.
"Azure Dragon!?" He shouted without any answer, transford into a giant wolf, rolling energy sweeping, yet utterly ineffective.
"Scarlet Wolf—Ivan, the Empire’s man."
In the room, Anduin looked at the crystal ball in his hand, within it Ivan tumbled back and forth, frowning: "The person looking for you is bigger than I imagined."
Capturing this guy is a bit tricky.
Robbin remained silent, cold sweat already dotting his forehead.
Beside him, Ulrich’s heart trembled even more, Scarlet Wolf—Ivan, who was an X-level life form, had no resistance whatsoever before Anduin.
"Forget it, let Azure Dragon handle it." Anduin shook his head. The people of the Empire can’t be killed, but even if we give them back, Azure Dragon has to return them.
...
On the voyage back, Li Ming slept for five whole days.
"I really slept well this ti." Li Ming stretched his body, making cracking sounds.
He hadn’t slept for a long ti, and this ti when he woke up, he felt a sense of comfort from the depths of his being.
"High-level life forms may not need sleep, but it’s still a basic bodily need. Sleeping occasionally is really enjoyable." Li Ming glanced at the coordinates; there were less than ten days left to reach the chanical Court.
He glanced at the intelligence terminal and found several reports, his eyes subconsciously narrowing.
After pondering for a mont, he opened the control interface. Feeling refreshed, it was naturally ti to start the upgrade.
The first thing to upgrade had been decided long ago, precisely the [Life Power Core], which had the powerful passive [Immortal Source].
Last ti, if it wasn’t for this thing during the reckless contact with the Oathkeeper Stone, he would have been dead.
One billion tal energy, plus a portion of the Blood of the World.
On the control interface, the silver chanical heart emblem emitted surging power, its surface glowing with dazzling light, and the tallic luster gradually changed.
The internal structure was continuously reorganizing and optimizing, with precise parts rging and assembling to form a more complex and efficient system.
[Life Power Core--X Level: The immortal source of chanical life forms.
...
Control Effect: Fifty tis stamina amplification
Control Ability--chanization: Gain a hundred tis stamina amplification and acquire the "Immortal Source" ability.]
[Immortal Source: After receiving a fatal attack, the controlled object will suffer severe trauma but will erase host attack damage, restore all body stats to peak state, and gain 60 seconds of [Immunity] state.]
No new abilities, but a significant data boost.
The stamina amplified by the effect increased from twenty tis to fifty tis, and the capability increased from fifty tis to a hundred tis.
The effect was almost instantaneous. Li Ming felt his heart beating vigorously several tis, the blood pumping even more forcefully, making his already replenished state feel even more vigorous, eager to head to the Holy Castle and chat with the Abyss Clan brothers.
The [Immunity] state shot up from a duration of 3 seconds to 60 seconds, a very apparent increase.
Li Ming couldn’t help but nod. As his level increased, he encountered more and more bizarre things.
Sotis, deadly dangers could co unexpectedly.
Then, he shifted his gaze to another item, another core of the main battle system--[Justice Arm Armor].
Again, ten billion tal energy plus a portion of the Blood of the World, along with Radiant Energy, prompted the arm armor to undergo a deeper transformation.
[Justice Arm Armor--X Level: Justice Fist only falls on sinners!
...
Control Effect: [Destruction Whisper]
Control Ability--Justice Fighting: Extra hundredfold power amplification.]
[Destruction Whisper: Gain fifty tis power amplification; if no attack is received within a second, on the next attack, gain all power amplifications from controlled objects and ignore target defense.]
Li Ming couldn’t help but be surprised. The [Justice Arm Armor] had also undergone transformation, with [Armor Piercing Strike] and [Super·Charging Strike] condensed into [Destruction Whisper] and significantly enhanced.
The interval for gaining all power amplifications was reduced from three seconds to one second, the usual 30% armor-piercing disappeared, and during a burst, it ignored all defenses, equating to true damage.
If he were to face Lancaster again, even if their energy level difference wasn’t significant, one hit would surely result in a completely different outco than last ti.
"Currently, each controlled object being upgraded has its own changes, presumably recognized as the best transformation direction." Li Ming glanced at the control interface.
[Talos’ Heart] gave birth to a new ability.
[Life Power Core] enhanced its core abilities.
[Justice Arm Armor] underwent ability condensation.
