Chapter 1119: Chapter 574: Impact (2)
But from the few words of their dialogue, it is clear that this must be a major event concerning the entire interstellar realm, with the Azure Dragon seemingly facing the united pressure from the Three Great Civilizations.
Soon, those who manage to acquire firsthand information are praised, proving they must have connections with some significant figures.
Even certain gatherings, conversations, and even business dealings will boast relevant videos to win the cheers of their companions, proving their depth.
But this matter has not spread widely, partly because the information within has a comprehension threshold that is harder for the general public to understand.
On the other hand, due to the influence of the Holy Castle, the battle inside looks unattractive, making it difficult to broadcast.
Moreover, the joint suppression by the Three Great Civilizations makes it nearly impossible for related video material to spread on the Star Network.
Only on the Black Hole Network can you find some traces, and at a highly priced rate.
“Hahaha…”
In the Divine Craftsman Research Institute, Reynolds excitedly slapped his metal thigh, creating a clanking sound, while pointing at the virtual screen in front of him, his voice high-pitched:
“The Azure Dragon is so damn amazing, accomplishing such a big feat silently.”
“That’s the Holy Castle!”
“Also, did you see Thunder’s expression as if mourning his father? Serves him right for flaunting his power, always acting like he’s the world’s number one, not so arrogant now, huh.”
“… That short black giant was stunned, dazed, such a big ‘dad’, gone!”
“Haha, at first it looked fierce, but in the end…”
Reynolds mumbled excitedly, while Mikhail beside him had an extremely ugly expression, with only one thought in mind—
Big trouble!
“Hey, why aren’t you laughing?” Reynolds finally noticed Mikhail’s oppressive and dark expression, “You’re not that small-minded, feeling unhappy about the Azure Dragon stealing the limelight.”
“You…” Mikhail widened his eyes, almost spitting a mouthful of old oil out, gnashing his teeth: “Idiot, is your brain contaminated with motor oil?”
He pointed at the virtual screen in front of him: “Is this a good thing?”
“I’m telling you, big trouble!” he said in a deep voice, “Don’t mention the Azure Dragon, even we’ll be implicated.”
“I know, isn’t it just fighting against the Three Great Civilizations.” Reynolds said carelessly, “Fight and that’s that.”
“I fight your mother.” Mikhail swore angrily, not knowing whether Reynolds was pretending to be stupid or actually stupid, “Tell me how to fight? Shall we go to the Holy Castle and be live targets for the Azure Dragon?”
“Hey, we’re on the same page.” Reynolds raised his eyebrows.
Mikhail was trembling with anger, yet Reynolds continued, “But I’m not as stupid as you, obviously we can’t win in a direct fight.”
“However, providing some help indirectly can be done, such as causing damage.”
Mikhail was speechless, reluctantly asking, “Are you really planning to intervene?”
“You just said it yourself, even we’ll be implicated, this isn’t about whether to intervene or not.” Reynolds shook his head, “The Empire and Federation already know we’re researching the mechanical evolution path.”
“The Azure Dragon stirred up such a big commotion this time, if it’s not eradicated thoroughly, then this mechanical evolution path is a hidden danger.”
“After defeating the Azure Dragon, we’re next; and if Azure Dragon disappears, we’re next as well.”
Mikhail was visibly surprised, “If you know this, why are you still so happy.”
“Do you have a solution?” Reynolds asked in return.
Mikhail was speechless again, sighing helplessly, “This time, we’ve really been trapped by Azure Dragon.”
“I estimate the Azure Dragon didn’t want to be exposed either, it should have been an unexpected situation.” Reynolds reassured, “Don’t be so discouraged, Azure Dragon won’t fail so easily.”
“I know.” Mikhail glanced at him, hesitantly saying, “Actually, this is also an opportunity.”
“Opportunity?” Reynolds was surprised, “What do you mean?”
“I thought you had figured it out.” Mikhail shook his head, “The joint opposition by the Three Great Civilizations against Azure Dragon is actually risky.”
“High-level Life Forms have long been oppressed by the Three Great Civilizations.”
“On usual days, if one civilization wanted to take action against a Level X life form, it would make them anxious. Now with the Three Great Civilizations united, if they can crush Azure Dragon, it’s understandable. But what if they can’t?”
Reynolds’s eyes lit up, “If they can’t destroy him, Azure Dragon will become a flag, the longer he withstands, the greater the influence.”
“Exactly.” Mikhail nodded, leisurely saying, “He’s one of the three great masters of the Mechanic Association and also Vice Chairman of the High-level Life Form Union, both significant interstellar organizations that can trigger the nerves of the Three Great Civilizations. Once he withstands…”
“Then everyone responds!” Reynolds clenched his fist.
Mikhail nodded, “Normally, secretly forming alliances for such matters is the best way.”
“But now, with the Holy Castle in sight, it forces the Three Great Civilizations to bring matters to light, in reality, both Azure Dragon and the Three Great Civilizations are positioned against each other.”
Seeing Reynolds’s excitement, he nonetheless poured cold water, “But the key problem is, he has to endure, and the Three Great Civilizations understand this too, so if they decide to act, it will definitely be a thunderous strike.”
“I believe in him.” Reynolds said in a deep voice.
“He is clearly a flesh and blood life form, most likely not a consciousness copy of a Forging Hammer.” Mikhail was puzzled, was Reynolds to this extent?
Reynolds said blandly, “Using the hammer of the Forging Hammer, employing the mechanical holy spirit of the Forging Hammer, even if he’s not a consciousness copy, it’s significantly related.”
Mikhail shook his head helplessly, saying, “He should still be out there now, wait until he returns, let’s ask if he needs any help.”
He was quite dissatisfied, “No benefits, yet sharing the risk…”
…
In some unknown place.
The Holy Mother, Prophet, and Levinbeck were also in the flesh laboratory watching videos from the Deep Dimension World.
“The Azure Dragon has actually come this far… truly terrifying…” Prophet couldn’t help but exclaim.
The Holy Mother furrowed her brows tightly, her emotions reacting internally, unable to calm for a long while.
They are well aware of the importance of the Holy Castle, but conventional means completely fail to locate it, hence no attempt was made regarding it.
“Just one step short.” The Holy Mother’s face was cold, “If he truly obtains Diglas’s Crown, the next step will likely be pursuing that corpse, seeking the Ultimate Life Form.”
“Unfortunately, now the Three Great Civilizations will definitely not let him go.”
“I want that black giant.” Levinbeck suddenly spoke beside them, freezing the screen on Morris, his eyes full of greed.
“High bloodline purity of the Titan Branch, Titan’s evolution path, genetic evolution path, can actually be integrated into a single life form, really an excellent experimental material…”
Levinbeck suppressed his excitement, seemingly completely unconcerned about Azure Dragon’s matters, fixated solely on Morris.
“I have a hunch, the key to research lies within him.”
“You…” The Holy Mother stared at him, puzzled: “The Azure Dragon is about to open the Holy Castle, aren’t you amazed?”
“Since he’s the Forging Hammer, then there’s nothing surprising.” Levinbeck said casually.
She remained silent, vaguely feeling somewhat uncomfortable, coldly saying, “He is clearly a flesh and blood life form, impossible to be the Forging Hammer.”
Levinbeck frowned, a bit impatient, “Finding the Holy Castle with a flesh body, is that really surprising?”
Clearly possibly surprised, but Levinbeck saw more important matters.
He pointed to the screen showing Morris, his eyes burning hot, “Regardless, he must be captured.”
The Holy Mother furrowed her brows tightly, exchanging glances with Prophet, watching the excited Levinbeck, lost in thought.
The interstellar realm bustling, a fleeting half-month has passed.
Numerous high-level life forms are waiting for the Three Great Civilizations to take action, but they continue to remain calm, as if unaware of this matter.
Li Ming finally returned from the Deep Dimension World to the Mechanical Court, and as soon as the spaceship landed, Ulrich stepped forward to report softly:
“The people you instructed me to pick up have all been brought to the Mechanical Court, they are settled.”
