“Huh…” Li Ming exhaled a breath of gas mixed with highly compressed energy fragments, which crackled in front of his eyes and gradually dissipated.

He slowly opened his eyes, and the energy particles surging on the surface of his skin gradually converged. Feeling the power in his body, he couldn’t help but sigh: “Two years have passed, and the development progress has finally reached 30%.”

He stood up and stretched his limbs, feeling a crackling sound coming from inside. As he felt the changes in his body, his energy level soared from 20X when he first evolved to 70X.

The gene seed of Tegos focuses on physical enhancement. Every 1% progress can bring a 1.5X increase in energy level.

When it just reached the 30% node, no strange genetic ability was born, but Bo’s body was slightly strengthened.

The increase in strength made him happy. After adapting a little, he immediately switched to [Trace of Eternal Abyss] to feel the liveliness of Eternal Abyss.

In the process of continuing to develop gene seeds, only this matter and the absorption of metal energy can pull him out of it.

Observe once a month to ensure that Yongyuan’s activity progress is always under your control.

But this time…

As soon as Li Ming activated his ability, he felt something was wrong. Although his activity level was still “weak”, it was slightly higher than that a month ago.

This change is far from enough to turn its activity level from “weak” to “weak”, but it is a real increase.

“Why did the activity level suddenly increase?”

Even if it was only a tiny bit, Li Ming was extremely alert and frowned.

I immediately opened my smart terminal and scanned the interstellar network. It was calm and the hot search title was –
“Visit the Mechanical King’s Court, the core base of the only ultimate life form in the galaxy.”

This is a video posted by “Chief Long Chui”.

I opened the push notifications from the Black Hole Network again, and all sorts of weird information came in, but none of them had a big impact.

There was no gain from either the interstellar network or the black hole network, which made Li Ming frown even deeper.

Even though the increase in activity was only a slight one, the birth of Adam and the battle between him and Adam might have only increased it a little more than this time.

In the interstellar world, it is difficult to remain motionless.

Thinking of this, he opened another specially customized software, and immediately a large amount of information popped up, waiting for review.

In addition to the two obvious information channels: the interstellar network and the black hole network.

The information channels under his control now include the Mechanical Royal Court, the Higher Life Forms United Organization, the Empire’s Intelligence Organization, the Mechanics Association, etc.

The intelligence collected every day is extremely complex and needs to be screened multiple times. This software is specifically designed to receive the intelligence after screening.

“The Federation is secretly selecting many citizens who have great potential and value in various fields.”

“The Star Alliance Council is planning to impeach Antigo, believing that his foreign attitude is too weak.”

“………”

If this news were to get out, it would certainly cause quite a stir, but it would obviously not cause Yong Yuan’s activity to increase.

“Since it’s not in the open, then it must be in the dark…” Li Ming’s face flickered, “I’m afraid Yongyuan is taking the initiative to stir up trouble and expand his activity.”

The three recorders were still in the Mechanical Royal Court and had written down everything they knew. Li Ming read it carefully.

There is no relevant description to prove that Yongyuan has ever actively increased his activity level. It was basically passively improved through things happening in the main universe.

But Li Ming believed that Yongyuan must have this ability.

“However, the universe is so vast. Unless there is a clear event to guide it, otherwise…” Li Ming couldn’t help but have a headache.

The bad thing is that the interstellar universe is too vast. Maybe there are clues that have been collected, but they have been discarded after layers of screening mechanisms.

Even though his screening mechanism had been carefully adjusted and managed by Suzaku, this problem could not be avoided.

After all, judging from the intelligence, the relevant clues are most likely just a fluctuation in the void somewhere, an energy runaway. No matter how smart Suzaku is, it is impossible for him to connect with Yongyuan.

“But, we still have to find it…” Li Ming’s eyes flickered, and he began to issue instructions through various channels. Now the collection and summary of intelligence are all in a passive state.

Once subjective initiative is exerted, the scene will be completely different.

But the specific instructions on paper made him feel troubled. He couldn’t just tell them to look for all the information related to Yongyuan.

The grassroots workers may not even know Yongyuan’s situation, and the impact caused may be huge.

With his brows furrowed, he thought again and again, and could only condense it into six words, “Look for anything abnormal.”

……

The Sea of ​​Stars, the Nileste civilization, was a civilization that was discovered more than a hundred years ago and incorporated into the interstellar map.

It did not choose to connect with the interstellar world, but instead implemented a closed management system within its territory. More than 95% of its citizens do not even understand the meaning of the word “interstellar”.

The borders of the Starry Sea have been expanding. There are many such civilizations, but Nerost is a little different.

Because its coverage area includes six star clusters and it has native X-level life forms, its strength is quite impressive.

When they were first discovered, they even had to fight with the Star Alliance. However, after realizing the absolute gap in strength between them, they had no choice but to join.

They have joined the group only recently and the group is closed to the outside world, so they are quite strong.

This made the Nerost civilization famous in the Sea of ​​Stars, and many people wanted to explore its unique culture and hidden secrets.

What made Nyrost even more famous was that fifty years ago, a group of stowaways from the Federation secretly came into its territory out of curiosity, but were caught and detained by the Nyrost civilization.

The Federation put pressure on the Nirost civilization to hand over those people. The Nirost civilization initially resisted, but they only agreed to release them after the Star Alliance intervened.

However, on the day of release, the Nileste civilization played a little trick and did not release the people through the designated border pass.

Instead, they came from another area, and when the federation people arrived, they could only see a pile of spaceship ruins.

The Nileste civilization claimed that the incident had nothing to do with them and was done by roaming interstellar pirates, which caused quite a stir at the time.

Although the Federation was unhappy, it was impossible for it to cross such a long distance to attack a not-too-weak civilization.

In the end, they only symbolically deducted some of the Nileste civilization’s assets in the Federation as compensation, and the matter was left unresolved.

It is precisely because of this incident that the Nerost civilization has become more mysterious and also has a bit of dangerous color.

The Nyrost civilization also realized that it could not allow the outside interstellar media to smear it at will, so it specially opened a window for external communication and accepted interstellar travelers at a specific time every year. This place is Sanchez Planet. As the only planet with life in the galaxy, it is very close to the border of civilization and is an excellent window.

In the main city of the planet, even though the stars are facing away from this place, the lights are still on, and the patrol spacecraft shuttling through the clouds can be clearly seen.

The streets were clean and wide. The Nirost people gathered in groups of three or four and seemed to be taking a walk. They had light blue skin, protruding facial features, narrow eyes, light yellow pupils, and some kind of animal characteristics.

Wearing distinctive civilized costumes, everyone has a smile on their face, creating a peaceful and stable atmosphere.

Another group of people on the street attracted the attention of these natives, and they looked at them frequently.

It was truly a hodgepodge of races, with each life form holding special camera equipment and filming everywhere.

“Why does this place feel so weird? Look at those natives, they have smiles on their faces even when being photographed.” Several humans in the team whispered in a rare indigenous language.

One of the men’s eyes flickered as he suppressed his excitement: “Someone has said that this place is a window specially built by Nyrost to the outside world. I suspect that these people are all carefully trained agents.”

“I’m going to go to the top floor of the Government Affairs Center to take a look.”

“Honey!” The face of a female backpacker accompanying them changed slightly. Her long fiery red hair looked quite ostentatious. “Are you looking for death? That place is a prohibited area.”

“Bates, just because it is expressly prohibited, there must be a lot of secrets hidden.” Honey was eager to try.

The man next to him hesitated. “But these surveillance balls behind us are following us almost 24 hours a day. We have no chance at all.”

“I have a way to block them.” Honey smiled mysteriously.

Bates couldn’t help but look at him, “Who are you? An interstellar backpacker, would you have such a method?”

Honey tempted, “Are you willing? Steve, the video about this place has been everywhere for a long time. Even if you post it, you won’t gain many fans. But if you reveal the truth about this place, you will be rich and powerful.”

The man and the woman looked at each other with some hesitation, but then Honey hugged them and said, “Don’t think about it. This is not the home planet of Nyrost. We can hold on.”

“After this time, I will take you to visit the Mechanical King’s Court.”

The Mechanical Royal Court? The two were shocked. As the base of Li Ming/Qinglong, the ultimate life form, the Mechanical Royal Court had attracted the attention of almost the entire galaxy after the Empire War.

Although it is partially open to the public, the number of places is extremely limited and the price has been raised to nearly one million star coins per person, but there is still no demand.

Their throats couldn’t help but roll.

After following the tour guide and touring the main road, they returned to the hotel to rest.

Until late at night, three figures slipped out silently.

“Fuck! A camouflage curtain, such a high-tech thing, you have it too? And you can even bring it in, you are the agents, right?” Steve and the other two hid under a curtain, which seemed transparent, and they could clearly see the scene outside.

Steve had seen this thing in some popular science videos. It can be adjusted in real time according to the external ambient light, and can blend into the environment no matter from which direction you look at it.

Depending on its function, the most expensive one can reach tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of star coins.

“Have you ever seen an agent as handsome as me?” Honey asked back, his azure blue pupils like amber.

The two were speechless but somewhat excited as they came all the way to the Government Affairs Center, which was the core area of ​​Sanchez. The soldiers in charge of guarding it had resolute expressions.

However, the specifications of this mimicry curtain were much higher than Steve and the others had imagined, and they almost slipped right under the noses of these soldiers.

“Ambient light shielding, mimicry, infrared simulation, sound wave absorption… This thing probably costs no less than 10 million star coins…” Steve took a breath.

He knew Honey might be a rich second-generation who came out to experience life, but he didn’t expect him to be this rich.

“However, we can’t take the elevator anymore. I guess we can only take the emergency exit.” Honey whispered.

Steve and the other man’s hearts were in their throats. Although this thing could make their bodies disappear under many detection methods, the entity still existed.

However, the process was much easier than he had imagined, and they reached the top floor with almost no setbacks.

The corridor here is covered with red carpet, and a huge photo of President Nirost is hung on the back wall.

There were rooms on both sides. Steve felt uneasy and couldn’t help saying, “There are so many rooms. I can’t go to them one by one…”

He suddenly closed his mouth halfway through his words, and saw the room at the end of the corridor suddenly open, and a Nerost man walked out, with a dazed look and bloodshot eyes.

“Archon…” A voice suddenly came from behind. The three of them were startled. Bates covered his mouth forcefully to prevent any sound from coming out.

When they came back to their senses, the Niloster people in front of them had returned to normal, with a dignified look on their faces.

The people in the rear reported: “Today’s tour is over.”

“Yes.” The Archon nodded solemnly, “We must keep a close eye on them tomorrow. There are many people with bad intentions among them who intend to find evidence that is unfavorable to us.”

“clear.”

The two talked, stepped into the elevator, and gradually walked away.

After a long time, the three of them came back to their senses, but Honey’s eyes were filled with excitement. “Did you see that just now? When the Archon came out, he looked dazed, with bloodshot pupils. It was weird, very weird!”

“It seems so.” Bates nodded hesitantly. Steve kept his smart terminal on throughout the whole process and played it back directly. He found that it was just as Honey said. The situation was obviously wrong.

The three of them were excited and looked back to see that the elevator had reached the bottom floor.

They moved forward cautiously, and when they approached the gate, Honey took out a thin piece of transparent crystal and stuck it on the handle.

I saw a large amount of data streams appearing above, and silently, the door opened a crack, and a faint blood light could be seen.

The three of them looked at each other, took a deep breath, looked back, and covered the door with the mimicry curtain.

Honey then pulled out a coin-sized blue device like a magic trick, threw it into the gap, and after a flash of blue light, he walked into the door.

The whole room was simple and unadorned, with tables, chairs, desks, and heavy curtains, and it looked like the place where a stern official lived.

The only difference is the faint red light emanating from under the desk.

Honey couldn’t wait any longer and ran over while the other two were still looking around.

“Ho…Ni.” Steve called out softly, and saw that the other party stopped beside the desk with a stiff face.

“What’s wrong?” He also walked up and followed Honey’s gaze.
