This is really not mechanical ascension

Chapter 342: Chapter 185: Trading with Blake - The Shadow of the United Fleet

Torch must have obtained something from it, but with the resources they have at hand, it’s probably very difficult to analyze it. They can only look for external power.

Could it be that the big mechanic Jesaya, who suddenly appeared, is here because of this matter too.

Blake further supplemented, "However, according to the intelligence we have obtained, the Torch Organization extended an invitation to the Collector, but the Collector turned it down."

"Smart," Li Ming couldn’t help nodding. Ulrich was still quite steady; Torch’s side was clearly a big pitfall, and who knows what trouble it might lead to.

"Since that’s the case, it should have nothing else to do with me. There are so many mechanics; they don’t necessarily have to find me."

Li Ming’s expression was hesitant, understanding that there must be something he didn’t know about; otherwise, there was no need for Blake to contact him.

"If it were merely so, the Torch Organization would have no need to stir up ripples again," Blake said with a bitter smile, followed by a sharp look in his eyes. "Do you know, Li Ming?"

Li Ming’s heart skipped a beat and then all became clear.

Shit, I almost forgot about that. The Torch Organization is drooling over me.

The original body and Ya Ro disappeared without a trace. The only thing that implicated me was the last thing Ya Ro did before he vanished, and I ended up with the goods in the end.

That’s to say, I might be the last link to the whereabouts of "Li Ming."

"Li Ming, he’s your student, isn’t he?" Blake exclaimed.

Li Ming, lost in thought, looked up blankly. Huh?

"You don’t have to hide it anymore. The interstellar is vast, but unless you’re really living on some indigenous planet all your life and never come out, it’s always possible to discover clues," Blake said with a sigh. "Many have already speculated."

"Level 16 potential development, you indeed have a unique vision."

Li Ming had an odd look on his face, have I become my own student?

"Without concealing it from you, this person also has a file in the interstellar alliance. One of our colleagues came into contact with him on Silver Grey Star and thought highly of him," Blake said, looking at Azure Dragon’s face, praising, "Young, with a sense of justice, and extremely high potential for development."

"After returning to Yellow Bell Mechanical College, the big mechanic Castelon from Dwarf Star Civilization publicly praised Li Ming’s level of mechanical engineering many times and privately speculated that he must have a teacher," Blake added.

"No wonder he dared to abandon the resources and cultivation provided by Yitelan, and without hesitation, extricated himself from the political vortex—all because of your presence."

The look on Li Ming’s face became even more peculiar. How could it all match up? The speculation was quite reasonable.

"Don’t flatter me with extravagant praise, just say what you want to say," Li Ming shook his head.

Blake coughed and said, "What I mean is, you are a big mechanic and also Li Ming’s teacher. The Torch Organization is very likely to take action against you. You see, Kay..."

"Kay?" Li Ming’s mouth twitched, "No way."

Blake’s face stiffened, but he then heard—

"However..."

Hope rose in his heart involuntarily.

"Since it’s no secret, I won’t hide it anymore. Li Ming is indeed my student, and right now he needs a B-level gene seed," Li Ming stated indifferently.

"B-level?" Blake was slightly stunned. "Isn’t he just a D-level life form..." He was cut off before finishing his thought, and then it dawned on him: "Given his potential for development and your resources, he should have already become a C-level life form."

"However, isn’t it too soon? He should have just become a C-level life form, right? And he’s already preparing for a B-level gene seed?"

"Just being prepared for future needs," Li Ming said calmly. "With our situation, if we start looking when we need it, who knows how long that will take."

"I’m very serious about obtaining a B-level gene seed, you can definitely do it.""

"The price of a B-level gene seed is actually not low," Blake said helplessly.

Li Ming cut him off: "Don’t try to fool me with the market price or the prices from the Black Hole Network. You are part of the interstellar alliance and can get it at cost."

Blake felt helpless inside, dealing with this person was truly exhausting, but he tried to say, "With your resources, obtaining a B-level gene seed shouldn’t be too difficult for you?"

Li Ming looked amused: "Trying to probe into my background?"

"If I dared to say, would you dare to listen?"

Blake’s heart pounded, naturally curious. In fact, not just him, people inside the Torch Organization and even within the Yitelan Civilization were curious.

However, his information didn’t match that of most big mechanics.

At the same time, this also meant that he is either secretly cultivated by some civilization or has caused a huge trouble and gone completely into hiding.

Both possibilities meant trouble, and a lot of it.

He was just responsible for Kay’s field operations team and did not want to get involved in a bigger whirlpool.

"Forget it, forget it. Don’t say it," Blake hurriedly waved his hand, then said, "As for the B-level gene seed, I will figure something out."

"I want three elements, top-tier B-level gene seed," Li Ming added.

Blake wasn’t surprised but looked even more troubled, "I will try my best to ensure it, but... the Torch Organization is full of madmen, please be careful."

"Doesn’t the interstellar alliance care?" Li Ming asked curiously. "There are departments against plundering, aren’t there any anti-terrorism departments?"

Blake’s eyes flickered, speaking evasively, "Regional organizations like these are generally not managed by the interstellar alliance. They aren’t all terrorist organizations."

"I see," Li Ming nodded, "You also can’t be sure whether they are terrorist organizations, revolutionary organizations, or puppet organizations supported by other civilizations."

"In the event they overthrow the governing government someday and become the masters themselves, it would be difficult for the interstellar alliance to deal with, so you simply stay out of it."

"I didn’t say that," Blake said cautiously.
