Chapter 479: Chapter 253: Acquiring the Three Main Guns – The Dimension Life Form That Makes Dreams Come True_2

"It is." Hector didn’t think much of it and immediately had someone open the case; both of them entered together.

Less than ten minutes later, they walked out, with Hector still shaking his head, "I told you, you’re overthinking it."

"Just to be sure and feel at ease." Zog briefly replied, while the others just glanced over and went about their work, not paying much attention.

In the shadows, Li Ming let out a long sigh of relief; all three main cannons had been acquired, each with distinct traits—

[Corona Radiance: Threefold energy storage, firing duration doubled, can unleash double the power, causing severe burns.]

[Double Frost: Threefold energy storage, capable of firing consecutively twice, rendering the target icy cold.]

[Electromagnetic Aggregation Effect: Double energy storage, causes a minor electromagnetic burst.]

All unique in their ways, no need to say more, along with the two cannons he already possessed.

If all five cannons, each with their own traits, hit their target, Brother should be directly blown away.

He mulled over this, somewhat eager to try, but considering the current environment and Connet turning into the Purple Giant, he could only suppress the impulse in his heart for now.

Since they’ve been acquired, there would definitely be a time to shine.

But there was a piece of bad news that wasn’t really bad news; his metal energy was running out, having spent a total of fifteen million metal energy to control these three cannons.

Now only about one million metal energy remained, which made Li Ming feel a sense of crisis.

It wasn’t even enough to repair the Sublimator in his hands.

"I must find a way to get some more, and if it really comes to it, I must absorb some of those super-large alloys, even if it takes more time..." he calculated privately.

Zog and Hector went to report back to Pier.

"Right, the main ship is being installed as we speak, get ready as well, we’ll start on the main ship’s installation soon." Pier instructed them before sending them away.

He seemed preoccupied, gazing at the virtual screen with a distant look in his eyes.

Suddenly, a mechanical pocket watch fell.

"Among the five transport ships that arrived today, what was in one of the transport ships that couldn’t be inspected?"

"Boiling Blood Alloy..." Pier’s expression was vacant.

Li Ming’s eyebrows lifted, that kind of alloy?

The alloys in the economy were varied and bizarre, and the raw materials used were quite peculiar, not just composed of metals.

For example, the Constant Star Day Core, which included a highly crystallized energy crystal.

And this Boiling Blood Alloy was not only an alloy material but also considered an interstellar precious metal, and a rather rare one at that because its raw material uses the blood of natural life forms.

Li Ming had been surprised when he casually saw it on the Black Hole Network.

The formula for this substance comes from a primitive civilization that is even at a backward stage of tribal slave society.

But they have this very special Boiling Blood Alloy; their method involves using tribespeople, the seriously injured, disabled, or elderly as raw materials for casting.

The alloy has extremely strong ductility, when made into armor, it greatly boosts the fighting capability of life forms; and when accumulated on a large scale, can even create a special arena, which is a Mind Position.

After being discovered by an Interstellar Exploration Team, its formula was sold for a high price; later, it was refined by multiple civilizations to become the Boiling Blood Alloy.

However, due to the need for the fresh blood of natural life forms in its production process, it received massive resistance from interstellar animal rights, environmental, and human rights organizations upon exposure.

"What do you guys want this stuff for?" Li Ming asked.

"To sacrifice to Dream - Silk Pearl."

Dream - Silk Pearl?

Li Ming pondered; the Torch Organization’s naming conventions and abilities of Dimensional Creatures were extremely fitting.

Like the Realm of Perpetuity, Thunder, or space worms.

But this Dream sounded quite strange.

"What abilities does this Dimensional Creature have?" Li Ming pressed further.

"It has the power to make dreams come true," Pier concluded.

Li Ming was slightly stunned, a green light flashing in his eyes, but then he shook his head.

That couldn’t possibly be true; if such a Dimensional Life Form existed, why would the Torch Organization still be barely clinging to life?

"What are you planning to do with this sacrifice to Silk Pearl?" Li Ming inquired once more.

Pier’s expression was conflicted; after a moment, he shook his head: "Not sure."

Li Ming’s brows furrowed slightly as he checked the time; Pier was already becoming alert, so he couldn’t be hypnotized for too long to prevent him from noticing anything unusual.

"Is this Torch’s first sacrifice?" he asked quickly.

"No."

"..."

"Phew..."

Minutes later, Pier heaved a long sigh, lying on the chair with a vacant look in his eyes, then he exclaimed, "Such a big move..."

In the shadows, Li Ming digested the news he had just received, feeling astonished.

This Boiling Blood Alloy was sent by Kewis, the guy who looks exactly like Connet.

It was the main raw material for sacrificing Dream - Silk Pearl.

According to Pier, this ability of "making dreams come true" by the Dimension Life known as Sper was extremely limited.

The Torch Organization had already made a sacrifice recently with the objective of directly creating a Sublimator.

But Sper was unable to do it, and moreover, the last sacrifice was discovered by the enraged Asimara due to an attack on the laboratory, causing considerable loss to the Torch Group.

As for the specific purpose of this sacrifice, Pier wasn’t very clear, but it seemed to be related to opening the Ascender Relics.

He didn’t know, but Li Ming had his speculations.

"Sublimation particles..."

That Sper, if it can’t produce a Sublimator, what about those sublimation particles? Surely that should be much easier.

What about those lifeforms that have fused with sublimation particles?

Li Ming pondered thoughtfully. According to Pier, the conditions for sacrificing Sper were quite harsh, and it can only be contacted in a specific area.

This means that the Torch Organization must go to the area discovered by Asimara last time.

Pier had realized that the organization’s plan was already in its later stages.

What troubled him, however, were the issues occurring to him personally.

He opened the screen, repeatedly listening to the phrase he had decoded earlier, trying to use the decoding method to crack more information in reverse.

But it was to no avail, resulting in nothing but chaos.

"Why is it like this." Pier felt helpless; during this time, he had been trying to contact that Dimensional God.

But apparently, the other side was unwilling to care about him, and sometimes he even had the impulse to disregard everything and go confess to the leader.

But in the end, he had to suppress this idea.

Otherwise, the best he could hope for was to have his memory scanned by Mind Power and perhaps be left alive but dull and foolish.

...

"This time it’s eight hours..." In the corner, Des checked the reactivated Thunder, noting down the time.

On the screen in front of him, he had arranged the timelines of the prior events through various formulas, but couldn’t discern any pattern, as if it were truly random.

Des watched the Mechanical Body return to the entrance of the Azure Dragon’s room before he left with a solemn expression.

"Hmm... If Connet really intends to use the so-called Dream to create lifeforms with sublimation particles, then that’s really troublesome..." Li Ming mused silently.

Once Connet obtains the sublimation particles, he would gain a significant advantage, and once the Sublimator is made, nobody can predict his actions.

"How can this be," Li Ming pondered; he definitely couldn’t personally take action to disrupt their plans.

Unfortunately, Pier also had no means to contact the outside world, or else things would have been much simpler.

Within the entire Torch Base, only the external affairs department could make contact outside, and its internal members were rarely seen in other areas of the base.

"It seems like an opportunity for Des to distinguish himself has come again."

"And that batch of Boiling Blood Alloy, the price of Boiling Blood Alloy isn’t cheap; it should also be able to extract quite a bit of metal energy."

With this thought, he frowned and shook his head again, "No, it would cause problems to draw out 70%; they have already seen similar materials in Sandro’s possession and would immediately make the connection to me."
