Chapter 499 Characteristics of the Holy Spirit

For Li Ming, S-level is not so urgent, and he may not agree to spend star coins to buy gene seeds.

Even if it is discounted, a S-level gene seed will not be less than 50 billion star coins.

He did not expect Li Ming to agree so easily, which also means that the position of them is still not shaken.

Although there were some conflicts with Theo before, they have been in the Mechanical King Court for so long and have long been a community of interests.

"Does he have any special needs for gene seeds?" Li Ming asked casually, "If it is customized, I am afraid it will take a long time."

Ulrich hurriedly explained: "He has no needs. With his development potential, he has stopped at S-level life forms. Any gene seeds will do."

Li Ming nodded, and the two chatted and had already arrived in front of the mechanical warehouse.

"By the way, he seems to be an exiled noble." Li Ming suddenly remembered.

"Yes." Ulrich nodded and asked tentatively: "What do you mean?"

"It's not bad to support him to restore his country." Li Ming said lightly.

Ulrich's heart stagnated, and he couldn't help but feel sour, but he still said: "The main civilization that destroyed his civilization came from the Sea of ​​Stars. This is not a simple matter."

Li Ming raised his eyebrows: "The Sea of ​​Stars? You can do it according to the situation. Tell me if it involves x-level life forms."

Before he finished speaking, he had already stepped into the core base.

Ulrich's face changed, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly, "...Sure enough, choice is more important than effort."

The mechanical bodies in the warehouse were piled up densely. The original one-meter gap was now reduced to fifty centimeters, which could barely accommodate so many mechanical bodies.

This is the second expansion of the mechanical body warehouse, and the capacity is only one million.

In Ulrich's vision, this is only the first one, and there will be many mechanical body warehouses in the future.

But since the Azure Dragon Platform was deeply bound to Anduin's Star Gate Node, the development speed of the Mechanical King Court has not stagnated at all, but has accelerated further.

As a result, the entire Mechanical King Court has to undergo a third expansion, and there is no need to continue to build other mechanical body warehouses, and they have all been cancelled.

These mechanical bodies can be put down if they are squeezed together.

Ulrich waited outside tactfully, secretly guessing in his heart, not knowing how many S-class mechanical bodies would appear this time.

With the cooperation of Anduin, during the time when Li Ming was away, Wang Ting's stores were spread all over the chaotic star gap, but the number of mechanical bodies was seriously insufficient.

Because all the manufactured mechanical bodies had to wait for Li Ming to "see" them before they could be put into use.

In the warehouse, Li Ming couldn't help rubbing his hands, and even blew on the fingertips of both hands, using the ancient methods of his previous life, hoping to increase the probability of [mutation].

Then he stretched out his hands, and a wisp of golden arcs surged from his fingertips, and then quickly formed a huge thunderstorm, covering every mechanical body.

However, this time is different from the past.

Even in the white arc storm that covered ordinary mechanical bodies and did not produce any mutations, there was a trace of golden light.

Blue arc storms exploded one after another, and under the huge base number, there were quite a few purple arc storms.

However, Li Ming's focus has long been not on this.

Boom!

Finally, a red arc appeared.

Li Ming searched around and soon saw the second, the third...

The entire warehouse was shrouded in various arc storms.

It took half an hour to complete the transformation of the mechanical body.

Finally, four tall and burly mechanical bodies with different appearances stood in front of him.

Some were covered with sharp thorns, flashing cold light, like hedgehogs.

Some had smooth lines and smooth metal surfaces reflecting the surrounding light, full of mysterious texture of technology.

Others were inlaid with various strange runes and gems on their bodies, emitting mysterious and powerful energy fluctuations.

Each one has a unique temperament and style.

"There are only five S-level mechanical bodies, and it's still in probability." Li Ming's heart was not disturbed.

A D-level mechanical body can mutate into a B-level mechanical body at most.

A C-level mechanical body can mutate into an A-level mechanical body at most.

Only a B-level mechanical body can mutate into an S-level mechanical body, and manufacturing a B-level mechanical body is not just a factor of cost. There are many problems in mass production.

The price of the assembly line is so high that even the current Mechanical King Court cannot manufacture it on a large scale.

Li Ming took a quick look and found that the number of B-level mechanical bodies was no longer estimated, and the number of A-level mechanical bodies had already exceeded the 40 mark.

This was already a very large number. Even in the Empire and the Federation, the status of A-level life forms was not low.

Coupled with the indiscriminate blessing of the [Glory] characteristic, these mechanical bodies were stronger than two.

It can be said that the mid-to-high-end combat power under his command was definitely not weaker than any overlord-level in the Chaos Star Gap.

"Let these mechanical bodies return to their respective positions, and then the Mechanical King Court, this bloated giant, will be completely enriched." Li Ming thought.

He did not leave immediately, but selected one from each of the five levels of mechanical bodies, S, A, B, C, and D.

"I still need to think about this holy spirit characteristic." Li Ming was quite curious. The description of [Mechanical Creator] was too general and simple. He still had to explore the specific characteristics by himself.

"Why are you pink?" Li Ming looked at the A-class mechanical body in the middle, which was not tall.

The metal armor is painted pink, and not only that, the lower body is decorated with similar metal skirt armor.

It is quite unique, so Li Ming specially selected it.

"Master, I don't know either." The pink mechanical body in front of him nodded, and the voice was a little soft and fearful.

As soon as she spoke, Li Ming noticed that the several mechanical bodies standing next to her all looked at her with concern.

On the left are B, C, D, low-level mechanical bodies, who glanced and quickly moved away.

The S-level mechanical body on the right, like a big black warrior, glanced boldly.

The pink A-level mechanical body lowered its head and seemed a little shy.

"So anthropomorphic?" Li Ming noticed this and couldn't help but be surprised.

Due to the power of [Mechanical Lord], the mechanical bodies he enlightened are originally intelligent life, not a piece of data.

But that doesn't mean that they are born with emotions of joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, and they still need to be born independently in subsequent contact and tempering.

Only the loyalty to Li Ming rooted in the heart will not change.

But under the influence of the Holy Spirit, these machines have extremely complex emotions since birth, even desires, inferiority, and such deep emotions.

"This is simply a race..." Li Ming thought, and shook his head again: "This is a race."

I just don't know how these guys give birth to children.

This thought subconsciously emerged in Li Ming's mind, and then he erased it. After all, he is the creator of others. This is too bad taste.

After thinking about it, Li Ming waved his hand.

Summoning a D-level machine, he looks quite ordinary, two meters tall, with a silver skeleton, a regular mechanical model appearance, and no weapons.

"Master..." He looked even more awed, and the voltage was a little unstable, causing the mechanical pupils to flicker.

"Do you know how you evolved?" He asked.

"Evolution?" He was obviously a little confused.

Li Ming looked at the other machines, and they were also confused.

He thought about the information he had learned, and simply took out a piece of medium-to-high-end metal, which was green-gold, a green-copper alloy, with extremely high energy conduction characteristics.

As expected, the first moment it was taken out, the D-class mechanical body in front of him looked straight at it, and the internal voltage rose rapidly.

"Follow your instinct..." Li Ming gave the order, and the D-class mechanical body seemed to be impatient and picked up the metal at the first time.

In an instant, a golden arc burst out from the place where the two touched, and then the green metal began to melt slowly and was gradually absorbed by the D-class mechanical body in front of him.

Soon, the green-gold lines spread on his silver skeleton, and the arcs bursting from the metal shell became more and more intense until they reached a certain limit.

Boom!

He underwent a huge change, his body shrank a circle, and there was a green armor on the silver skeleton. His limbs became more flexible, and he turned into a C-class mechanical body on the spot.

And there was still a small half of the purple metal in his hand, and this melting did not stop, gradually turning into a green dagger along his palm.

"Absorbing metal to evolve..." Li Ming looked at this scene carefully, but he was not surprised.

Then, Li Ming conducted various experiments and gradually understood the Holy Spirit Mechanical Body better.

Evolution by eating metal can only work on C-class mechanical bodies. If you want to transform from C-class to B-class, you need to assist with high-compression electromagnetic energy to transform the energy engine.

It is even more difficult to transform from B-class to A-class, and you also need to assist with materials with special energy properties, such as mother ore.

Li Ming has not figured out what is needed from A-class to S-class.

"Hmm... Evolution by eating metal..." Li Ming thought, isn't this a conflict with him?

But on second thought, it seems to be a conflict, but the needs are completely different.

He is now absorbing high-precision synthetic metal materials, and even the Mechanical King Court can't manufacture them independently now, so they can only buy them from outside.

Ordinary metal materials, he can hardly absorb 10 million in ten days and a half months, so he has no time to waste.

"But if they are upgraded to a high level, the material requirements they need are also extremely high."

However, Li Ming quickly thought of how to maximize the benefits.

"Produce F-class mechanical bodies, or even lower-level mechanical bodies..."

The Mechanical King Court has never produced F-class mechanical bodies from the beginning because the strength is too low.

Due to the existence of kinetic weapons, even ordinary life forms can be destroyed by a burst of bullets, not to mention F-class, even E-class mechanical bodies can be destroyed, and they are pure cannon fodder.

Even if he has the ability to [mutate], 99% of mechanical bodies cannot mutate, and no matter how low the cost is, it still has a cost.

The mechanical legions under Reynolds and Mikhail do not have mechanical bodies of this level.

Unless there is a demand for mechanical bodies that are mainly service-oriented, but in the chaotic star gap, this demand is extremely low, which is equivalent to no market.

But now his mechanical bodies can evolve autonomously, and the cost-effectiveness of low-level mechanical bodies has become higher. Just feeding them some unrefined metal materials can make them evolve.

With the current production capacity of the Mechanical King Court, a part of the D-class mechanical body production line is allocated, and the F-class mechanical bodies produced every month are also in the millions.

Li Ming's eyes lit up: "The cost-effectiveness of hiring in large-scale wars has also increased. There are metal debris everywhere. You can make a fortune from hiring fees, and you can make another fortune by fighting to support the war."

"After a few fights, you can evolve from F-level to E-level, or even D-level~"

But thinking about it, seeing the respectful and admiring eyes of the mechanical bodies in front of him, he "tsk" again.

"War employment, but a meat grinder..." He called up Suzaku and asked, "Can the data of these holy spirits be extracted before they die and injected into other mechanical bodies?"

"It can be done." Suzaku nodded, "You only need to deploy an intelligent core in the area, and the extraction rate is about 95% or more."

"More than 95%, that's enough." Li Ming did not pursue perfection, and the mechanical bodies that made these bodies also worked for him, so he nodded:

"In this way, the training time is saved, and the data of the dead mechanical bodies are injected into those mechanical bodies that have not been enlightened. Tsk tsk... All are veterans of hundreds of battles, and they win again."

After studying for a while, Li Ming went out of the mechanical warehouse.

Ulrich immediately responded, and Li Ming acted vigorously: "Two things, half of the production capacity of manufacturing D-level mechanical bodies is used to manufacture F-level mechanical bodies."

"In addition, we can prepare to undertake large-scale war employment."

"Understood." Ulrich nodded immediately and wrote it down in the memo.

Next, these holy spirits will inevitably spread to all parts of the interstellar. Once this kind of mechanical body that can continuously evolve is exposed, it will inevitably cause an uproar.

Li Ming will issue instructions, requiring them to ensure that they can absorb energy or metal materials without external interference.

He just studied it carefully. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to find any difference between them and ordinary mechanical bodies. The power of the holy spirit is hidden in the deepest part.

In the entire interstellar, except for Reynolds and Mikhail who have some understanding of the holy spirit civilization, others probably know very little and it is difficult to connect it.

If the secret of the holy spirit is really exposed on a large scale, he should have no fear of the outside world.

Ulrich took the time to look at the mechanical body data synchronized by Suzaku, and his pupils shrank.

There are actually five S-level mechanical bodies this time, and his heart is inevitably throbbing. He restrained his emotions.

Li Ming thought that after this series of consumption, the consumption that should be consumed and the improvement that should be improved, the strength of his mechanical bodies has been raised to a higher level as a whole.

Sweeping the interstellar is just around the corner.

Li Ming was so excited that his mind was in a mess, but he soon thought of the existence of the three major civilizations and couldn't help but frown.

The foundation of these three civilizations is still not something that can be caught up in a short time, let alone Yongyuan.

That is the sword of Damocles, and it is unknown when it will fall.

Until now, he has not figured out the situation of Yongyuan.

"Unfortunately, the three major civilizations must know something about Yongyuan, and know that it may be a disaster, but they still fight." Li Ming pondered, "Let's see when I can fool them and throw all the resources to me."
