Chapter 925: Chapter 477: I Really Can’t Open It_2

The expressions on everyone’s faces shifted slightly, and Lancaster continued, "The Abyss Clan that struck first is strong, probably not weaker than me."

"These two guys didn’t think about leaving after escaping; instead, they attacked us." Gonzalez implied:

"Their strength has not reached the level where they can crush us, and they possess quite high intelligence. They must know that the risk of making a move is extremely high."

His gaze once again fell on the Mechanical Sovereign, "So, what kind of value makes them take risks and forcefully make a move?"

Li Ming... again it’s Li Ming...

Everyone had their thoughts, since entering these ruins, Li Ming had played an extremely critical role.

They also understood that the Azure Dragon didn’t send him here to take risks; rather, he was here to reap benefits.

And now, it seemed that he held great value in the eyes of the Abyss Clan, but the value... what was it?

Li Ming naturally wouldn’t explain, remaining silent, as it was just ambiguous speculation, unable to prompt anyone to take action against him.

It’s not like he had no power to resist.

Mikhail glanced at the ruins that were continuously collapsing in the distance and frowned, "Make haste, the recent battle seems to have broken some sort of balance; these ruins are about to be completely obliterated."

Everyone felt a bit gloomy; for the first time entering, such an incident occurred.

What they thought could be a long-term development treasure turned out to be a one-time opportunity.

Everyone followed Mikhail to change direction, leaping into the air, the collapse on the periphery seemed more apparent, not only starting from where they battled.

The entire periphery began to sink inward, the edges gradually dissolving.

Mikhail glanced around and quickly calculated the remaining time based on the current collapse speed and entire ruin model, "If it doesn’t accelerate, we have three months left."

"Three months?" Everyone felt it was not long, but rather short.

"What’s the next place? What kind of situation will we face?" Cedric asked.

"According to our prediction, it should be a kind of laboratory, but the troublesome issue is that we can’t crack the management system." Mikhail said, "Once the management system perceives any forceful breach attempt, it will start self-annihilation, leaving us with nothing."

"Haha..." Gonzalez couldn’t help but coldly laugh, "What a coincidence, I’ve heard that the Azure Dragon is best at mechanical intelligence."

"It seems this is Lord Azure Dragon’s exclusive stage again."

Everyone’s eyes subtly swept over, Li Ming remained speechless, the Holy Spirit Civilization belonged to the mechanical evolution race, so their expertise was in just those few areas.

What exactly is an exclusive stage?

"Still the old rule, priority selection rights?" Costate looked over.

Li Ming helplessly said, "I haven’t seen the specifics, there’s no guarantee it can be opened, it’s too early to discuss conditions now."

But he indeed had the ability to turn an intelligent terminal into one of his own, just needed to control it; the problem was, he had to find the core.

How could he touch the core through the entire laboratory?

"Is this a price hike with remaining time running out?" Crow let out a cold snort.

"You can’t have it all to yourself." Costate added, his attitude quite good, "Bring out what the Azure Dragon has prepared."

"Yeah, Li Ming, stop pretending." Reynolds joined in the fun.

Mikhail said nothing, but in his heart, he was calculating how to coax that thing out of Li Ming’s hands.

"Being too greedy is not good, kid." Diwusi glanced at him and said indifferently.

"I..."

Li Ming was increasingly speechless. Did they really think he was omnipotent?

He indeed felt a bit frustrated, understanding it was the aftermath left from before.

Everyone believed the Azure Dragon came prepared.

If he said now it couldn’t be opened, they would definitely suspect he was planning to have it all to himself again.

He didn’t bother to explain much, planning to see the situation before making any decisions.

Before long, everyone arrived at the laboratory’s location; there weren’t many signs of battles here, and the central large building still retained its original form.

However, it was shrouded by a faint Energy Barrier, looking very thin.

But Mikhail said, "This Energy Barrier has extremely high defense levels, and more critically, it can detect any subtle fluctuations; it also has spatial lock capabilities."

"The management system cannot be communicated with and is already on the highest alert. Without permission, if we approach within a certain range, it will directly annihilate."

"How do you know?" Cedric was skeptical, unable to communicate but had such detailed understanding?

"The Forging Hammer has already destroyed one." Mikhail said blandly, "However, the Forging Hammer estimates there may not be anything good inside, probably some prototypes or the like." NovelFire

Everyone remained silent, their gaze falling on Li Ming, who had already reverted from Venerate King Form and was only wearing the Tank Guard.

"It’s just...," Li Ming’s helpless voice resonated, "I can’t get close, I have no way."

He truly had no solution for this laboratory; he couldn’t absorb energy.

Everyone clearly didn’t believe him, but before they could speak, their eyes changed and all looked in the same direction.

From the rear side of the laboratory, mist billowed.

Everyone’s expression changed slightly, their eyes full of vigilance, but then it turned to astonishment.

A shadow suddenly shot out; it was the Abyss Clan member who had escaped before, moving at an astonishing speed. Correct content is on NovelFire.

But their target wasn’t them; instead, they charged straight into the Energy Barrier ahead.

In an instant, the ground seemed to explode into a blazing yellow radiance like a mini sun, rapidly expanding at a speed that took one’s breath away.

Where the light touched, everything was dyed golden, and the Energy Fluctuations roared and spread out.

The air was heated rapidly, forming hot waves rolling toward all directions; the ground shook and shattered under this intense energy impact.

Although it caused no damage to the group, their faces turned grim.

The hot waves swept in from all sides, the explosion’s aftermath hadn’t completely dissipated; naturally, they weren’t afraid given their Life Level, and they forcefully suppressed the Energy Fluctuations.

There was nothing left here now; the place where the laboratory once stood had turned into a large pit, the ground fractured and shattered.

"Courting death." Crow’s expression turned grim, gritting his teeth, with only four places, they hadn’t gained much, yet one place was blown up.

Although they didn’t know what was inside, at that moment, everyone felt a significant loss.

Except for Li Ming, who, despite the pity, felt relieved; everyone suspected he wanted to have it all, but now that it was blown up, everyone could be happy.

"He’s taking revenge on us." Costate looked around at the now cleared mist and said solemnly.

Mikhail flew into the air, looking into the distance, and after landing, his face was quite somber, "The earlier explosion accelerated the collapse speed of the ruins."

"Nothing’s left; it should not have had anything good." Cedric glanced around and couldn’t help but say.

Their thoughts were simple; good things would surely be very hard, and the explosion’s strength wasn’t actually that high.

If there was anything precious, it should have remained.

"If we had hurried a bit more, we might have opened it by now." Crow said, with a tone full of implication.

Li Ming raised an eyebrow, though it wasn’t explicitly named, it was clearly aimed at him.

"Let’s move to the last place." Mikhail interjected again.

This Mikhail was acting strange, having intervened for him a second time, Li Ming glanced at this Divine Craftsman.

Others didn’t say much either, it was blown up already, no point grumbling, and it couldn’t be blamed on Li Ming.

"Let’s speed up, don’t let that thing get ahead again." Cedric urged.

"Rest assured, the last place, the Abyss Clan couldn’t possibly destroy it." Mikhail was quite confident, already flying into the air.

Everyone followed closely, inquiring about the specifics.

"Not much information to tell you, I don’t know why we can’t enter either." Mikhail shook his head, not deliberately concealing, "We only know it’s a wall, an invisible wall, a wall that isolates everything."
