Chapter 1191: Chapter 610: Walking Metal Energies (Part 2) Mikhail couldn’t help but look over. He was actually quite surprised; this battle could even be said to shape the future situation. As a result, none of his mechanical bodies were dispatched. They all belonged to him and Reynolds, and even his true body didn’t appear. Was it confidence, or something else? Mikhail couldn’t help but overthink, then shook his head again. It no longer mattered. “Busy with other matters, can’t be diverted,” Li Ming casually deflected, his gaze sweeping over the many X Level Life Forms present. “You… Kashmir’s Spear, why is it with you!” A high-level life form from the Star Alliance suddenly exclaimed in shock, panic evident in their expression. A Mechanical Holy Spirit, reduced to about three meters, still kept Kashmir’s Spear suppressed with mechanical arms extending from its back. Its organic fuel had dwindled to only a tiny bit at the spear tip, and its resistance was growing weaker. “Nonsense, you tell me why it’s with him,” Reynolds sneered, “That old geezer Hemod tried to sacrifice his life to send Kashmir’s Spear away, but unfortunately… unfortunately…” The X Level life forms of the Star Alliance were thunderstruck. How did it come to this? What had they missed? Finally, someone from the Empire’s high-level life forms reacted, exclaiming, “You used time stasis on us just now?” “Everyone, the situation is quite clear now. However, I believe the Three Great Civilizations will not abandon you,” Li Ming smiled, and his attitude was good towards these walking metal energies: “So, please remain calm.” The crowd looked ashen, their hearts heavy. Being captured was an utmost humiliation. Thirty attacking one and still being counter-killed, even more of a disgrace. Anduin looked at the scene before him, unable to help but feel emotional. From this, the embryonic form of the fourth pole of the universe had emerged. Centered around the Azure Dragon, it united the Mechanic Association and the High-level Life Form Union, having influence no less than any side of the Three Great Civilizations. “By the way, may I ask, why did the Star Alliance retreat before?” Anduin tentatively inquired, having a vague suspicion. “You will know soon enough,” Li Ming suddenly remembered this matter, and a slight change appeared on the metallic cheek of the Mechanical Holy Spirit. Presumably, there was still a standoff at the coordinates over there. Earlier, in front of the Dominator Laboratory, both sides were still in a standoff, neither having taken action. However, Gusta could acutely sense subtle fluctuations in the void behind Alves and Tan Ding. “They are relocating!” A life form particularly sensitive to spatial fluctuations had already issued a warning. “Stop them!” Someone was stirring trouble, trying to incite others. “I’d like to see who dares,” Tan Ding barked harshly, emanating a robust life aura, his fierce eyes sweeping over everyone present. His renown was not for nothing. Any sly thoughts rising in the minds of those present felt as though doused by a bucket of cold water, leaving almost no one daring to meet his gaze. “I think everyone should be very aware of why you’re here. It’s best not to become someone else’s tool,” Alves said indifferently: “After all, he can barely protect himself.” Perkins and others exchanged subtle glances, roughly having deduced Lord Azure Dragon’s entire plan. No wonder they were summoned; it was to counterbalance these two guys. “Since someone’s plan has already succeeded, whether he can protect himself is still uncertain,” Sener smiled seductively. Gusta’s eyes flickered, and an almost imperceptible spiritual fluctuation was heard only by Alves: “Given the situation, does Your Excellency still want to keep this secret?” “Oh?” Alves maintained an unchanged demeanor, but replied, “Lord Gusta, any insights?” “I have an idea. The High-level Life Form Union might be able to replace the Star Alliance in joining this secret,” Gusta said. “With so many in the High-level Life Form Union, how can we ensure everyone won’t leak the information?” Alves countered. “If they don’t know, they can’t leak it. I can represent the High-level Life Form Union to join,” said Gusta. “You?” Alves slightly frowned, “You can’t represent the High-level Life Form Union.” “But with the help of the Empire Federation, I might represent them,” Gusta offered a suggestion. Alves pondered, thinking of more, “Even if we have to deal with the Azure Dragon.” Gusta hesitated, realizing the Azure Dragon’s plan had probably succeeded. This kind of control over events would earn him a lot of prestige. If it came to a showdown with the Azure Dragon, he couldn’t help but hesitate. Just then, Anatoli spoke up, holding a smart terminal in his hand, “The plan succeeded. The people of the Star Alliance seem to be retreating.” Gusta felt a heavy heart. Indeed. Lord Azure Dragon had truly calculated Gutierrez’s thoughts, even perfectly understanding his psychology. “No, why does it seem like they stopped?” Anatoli hesitated. Those watching from a distance could only provide vague videos and general information. Due to the distance, they almost missed noticing the Star Alliance’s United Fleet leaving the coalition camp and starting a transition before realizing something was wrong, but soon found that the transition had stopped. “Stopped?” Gusta was puzzled. Alves and Tan Ding’s expressions suddenly changed as they looked at each other, faintly astonished. After glancing around at everyone, Alves sent out a spiritual fluctuation: “Everyone, we just received news that the Star Alliance has returned to the battlefield.” Return to the battlefield? Everyone was momentarily baffled. In their recent exchange, nearly everyone had figured out the Azure Dragon’s method. And they all estimated a high chance of success, directly hitting the Star Alliance’s sore spot. Seeing the skeptical expressions of everyone, Alves nodded silently. Now, they were also being cautious. If this group got overly excited and decided to unite and attack, they’d be helpless. They could only intimidate indirectly in such a way. Gusta was surprised. Did the Azure Dragon fail? It couldn’t be the Star Alliance, otherwise, they wouldn’t have needed to leave. Then it’s Adam and Malcolm. These two really have such boldness. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel•fire.net Hiding so long and deciding to tell the Star Alliance just like that. This stirred him up, prompting Gusta to secretly contact Alves, “I can agree to help you deal with the Azure Dragon.” Since the Azure Dragon’s plan failed, he guessed that this time Azure Dragon probably wouldn’t take further action. With the impending collapse of the Chaotic Star Gap, Azure Dragon’s prestige would again diminish. Thus, with the support of the Three Great Civilizations, he wouldn’t mind competing against the Azure Dragon. Alves couldn’t help but contemplate. Given the previous chaos caused by Azure Dragon, the High-level Life Form Union had unintentionally become a threat. If Gusta was truly willing to completely submit, it wasn’t impossible to accept. While he weighed the pros and cons, Anatoli beside him couldn’t help but express surprise, “Why are Reynolds and Mikhail getting involved?” This news arrived quite quickly, as the intervention of a third party was easily noticeable. “Mikhail, that guy, is actually willing to take action?” Gusta sensed something was wrong. Mikhail, that old fox, hadn’t explicitly shown support for the Azure Dragon for such a long time and now suddenly appeared. “Everyone…” The sudden spiritual fluctuation gathered everyone’s attention. “Igor?” Gusta stared at him. He also knew this guy hadn’t run far, just hiding in the distance, but due to the earlier standoff, there was no way to break away and look. Igor’s expression was subtle, wearing a faint smile, “Stop looking, the news is delayed; it’s already settled over there.” “The basic situation is simple. Lord Azure Dragon captured twenty-nine X Level Life Forms, Hemod perished, and Kashmir’s Spear was left behind too.” What did he just hear!? How is that possible! Gusta’s pupils contracted to pinpoints, his face changing dramatically, as if an invisible hand gripped his throat, engulfing him in a suffocating sensation.
