Chapter 438: Chapter 233: Upgrade Mechanical Guard to Level A Justice Arm Armor with the Trait Armor-piercing True Damage

"Ladies and gentlemen... I am Firework Apostle--Sanna, we have come to meet you all by the leader’s command." The other party communicated, their attitude very courteous.

Theo had already verified the other party’s identity, no problem there, both sides swiftly converged through the warship’s bridge.

Sanna is a lean human, smiling widely, and he immediately greeted respectfully, "Lord Theo, Lord Azure Dragon, Lord Ulrich, Lord Sandro..."

"You’ve all come a long way, must have been tough."

"Chirp chirp, where’s your nest? Don’t waste time, hurry up and take us there." Sandro urged.

"No rush." Li Ming glanced at Sandro, "I still have some matters to deal with and need to wait around here for a day or two."

"Lord Sanna, that shouldn’t cause any problems, right?"

"This..." Sanna appeared somewhat troubled, "The orders we received were to take you to the headquarters as quickly as possible."

"It’s only a delay of a day or two, don’t worry, it’s just that some transactions with the Black Hole Network haven’t been completed yet." Li Ming took the initiative to explain.

"Trading with the Black Hole Network..." Sanna pondered.

Theo and the others had no particular reaction, only glanced at Li Ming.

Though the conflicts among the four were intricate, after contacting the Torch Organization, the situation became quite different. No matter how you put it, they were like a small group; they wouldn’t hold back over such trivial matters.

"This..." Sanna forced a smile, "Then let’s wait for a day or two."

These four all had A-level combat abilities, he couldn’t possibly take a hard stance, forcing them.

However, Li Ming said one or two days, but in the end, they waited five days.

By the end, Sanna was almost out of his mind, repeatedly urging, and Li Ming’s response was always unhurried.

The leader was also pressing hard, and Sanna was nervously placating and explaining on both ends.

"Finally, it’s here." On the deck, Sanna looked at the approaching black spaceship and even felt a tearful relief.

"Lord Azure Dragon, you told me at the beginning that five days wouldn’t matter. The leader almost thought I was about to defect," Sanna said helplessly.

These past few days, Li Ming found that Sanna was somewhat different from most of the Torch Organization members he had met.

Those people, due to their experiences, harbored deep resentments, but Sanna was different, he had a sense of humor.

"Their initial estimate they gave me was one or two days." Li Ming spread his hands.

The small spaceship from the Black Hole Network landed on the deck of the battleship, the hatch opened, revealing the familiar attire of the Black Hole Network personnel.

"I say, folks, why did you delay so much? My friend here has quite a grievance with you," Li Ming said, pointing at Sanna.

Sanna tensed up, waving his hands repeatedly, "No, not at all..."

"Due to the influence of the tidal forces of the Red River Star Stream, there was a delay on the road," the leader of them explained dully.

"Is compensation not offered for the delay in delivery time?" Li Ming went on to say.

The people from the Black Hole Network had no reaction, Li Ming was speechless, watching them carry down a black metal box.

"The thing is inside, do you want to check?" The person took out a tablet-like smart terminal, gesturing for Li Ming to sign.

"No need, I trust you." Li Ming smiled, signed his name, and after that, the others left cleanly and efficiently.

Li Ming picked up the black metal box, which was quite heavy, then said to Sanna, "We can set off now."

Sanna finally breathed a sigh of relief, fearing another mishap, hurriedly returned to the command room, and reported to all ships.

Sandro curiously looked at the black metal box, suspiciously asking, "What did you buy? It wouldn’t be metal materials or something, would it?"

"You have cheap metal materials by your side; why buy from the Black Hole Network."

Theo stared at the box, Ulrich did the same.

Li Ming couldn’t bother to explain, carrying the metal box back to his room.

Shutting the door tightly, he eagerly opened it; the metal box was substantially hefty, with an anti-gravity device at its base. The "Nolim Nuclear Gold" he purchased was placed inside.

It didn’t look big, but just a little bit of it was worth nearly five billion Star Coins on the Black Hole Network.

The remaining nine hundred million Star Coins from the spoils, plus Tiago’s ransom, totaled fifty-six billion. Subtracting the nearly six billion in shipping costs, almost everything else was in here.

According to the declassified information about him, it was said that this thing came from the Yitelan Advanced Combat Laboratory and was the core material of some kind of cutting-edge weapon.

He glanced at the gravity coefficient on the base--0.01. Ten times gravity adjustment?

Li Ming was surprised; the 20% transportation fee really wasn’t spent in vain. Just this anti-gravity device alone was quite valuable.

He tried touching it—

[Z-3 Miniature Anti-Gravity Device—B-level: Concentration is the essence; containing a high technological content that ordinary civilizations would find difficult to manufacture.

Control Conditions: Six hundred thousand metal energy

Control Effect: Power Amplification— 300%

Control Ability—Gravity Field: Deploy a ten-meter range gravity field, adjustable up and down ten times gravity.]

A B-level item, he was slightly surprised, but then pondered that he actually needed this thing.

Cannon fire was satisfying, but it was necessary to ensure the enemy couldn’t move at will.

He had found this problem in the few battles so far, temporarily lacking similar means. The effect of this item was quite okay and could be used tentatively.

"It’s an unexpected bonus," Li Ming muttered, leaving the gravity device in place, he placed his hand on the metal block, began extracting metal energy, and closely watched the Control page.

As soon as he started, the enormous surge of metal energy startled him, with the Control page’s numbers moving rapidly, almost blurring.

"Damn..." Li Ming watched quietly and his mood became better and better.

Only such a small block, the absorption speed was fast. In about an hour or so, he had completely drained the metal energy within.
