"Ha, where did this fool come from, get out of the way." Sandro sneered, striding over, even though he was the weakest A-level life form among them, the oppressive feeling he gave was extraordinary.
"Ted, step aside..." A weak voice came from behind.
Li Ming raised his hand to stop Sandro, looking around the room: "Please everyone go out first."
"Leader..." Ted hesitated, looking towards Connet in the medical pod, seeing his barely noticeable nod, he took a deep breath and led the people out from the other side.
Soon, only he and Connet, who was lying in the medical pod, were left in the room.
Li Ming casually brought a chair over, sitting in front of Connet’s medical pod. The various data displayed on the smart screen were all in a very low state, and the heartbeat was almost null.
"I have a few questions I want to ask you..." Li Ming didn’t wait for Connet to speak, as if talking to himself: "I know you will definitely resist, and I also know you are not afraid of death. With Dark Night here, I can’t kill you for now."
"But Dark Night will only protect you, it won’t protect your organization Ted, Pier, these people who are your loyal subordinates, and your main base that you have been operating for so many years, that’s all your hard work."
"Think about it carefully, don’t worry, I won’t ask those questions that you can’t possibly answer."
Li Ming’s casually spoken words, however, struck Connet like a tide of blood.
This terrifying Mechanic has been to their main base, perhaps leaving a contingency.
No, not perhaps, for sure!
Connet thought of the past and the crisis brought by the other party, which was more terrifying than the catastrophe that happened over two hundred years ago.
Perhaps, only the arrival of Dark Night was unexpected by the other party, unfortunately... unfortunate!
Connet remained silent for a long time, his voice still hoarse: "Ask."
"What is that black and yellow heart in the glass pod?"
Azure Dragon’s first question made Connet hesitate slightly before responding, "That heart? I’m not sure about its specific origins. When I took over the Torch Organization, it was already stored there, seeming to come from some dimension world."
He paused, perhaps feeling that this answer was too perfunctory, he continued:
"If this heart is transplanted onto a life form, it seems to bring very strong power. The organization has performed many transplant surgeries, but almost none were successful. Even an A-level life form could not sustain it for more than a year."
"Gradually, it was just left there."
It seems like a rare find that the Torch Organization stumbled upon, Li Ming nodded secretly, matching what he speculated.
’Talos’ Heart’ is too high-end, beyond what the Torch Organization’s research capabilities can decipher.
"Do you know the origin of that thing?" Connet asked back.
Li Ming remained non-committal, "What is the other item similar to Dimension Crystal?"
"That is... Dimension Core." Connet paused, saying, "It’s part of the main body of life forms in the Dimension Realm."
Most dimension worlds have their main life forms, existing symbiotically with the dimension world, and what we usually call dimensional creatures also refers to these main life forms.
As for other life forms, they are considered secondary derivatives.
Indeed... Li Ming nodded, after confirming these two pieces of information, he briefly fell silent, just looking at Connet’s mutilated body.
"Is Kewis part of you?"
This question was purely out of his own curiosity.
"Correct." Connet exhaled, speaking melancholically: "In my childhood, my teacher, the previous Torch Leader, derived Kewis by sacrificing a powerful dimensional life form."
"We are symbiotic entities sharing all my thoughts and memories, like twins."
"Yet, he can return to me through special means, significantly enhancing my strength."
"Can he be revived?" Li Ming’s eyes flickered slightly.
Connet was silent for a while, "Yes, I can expend a price to re-derive him."
"Impressive." Li Ming sincerely admired, the vastness of interstellar space knows no bounds.
"Next question, where are the coordinates of the Core Relics?"
"Heh, indeed it’s this question..." Connet scoffed, about to speak, but was interrupted by Azure Dragon,
"I know, you won’t say it, let’s skip those threats and indomitable deaths."
"I have a suggestion, how about we cooperate again?"
Connet’s mouth twitched involuntarily, the green life-sustaining liquid swirling with a hint of blood.
Now, hearing the word ’cooperate’, he felt his brain ache, not to mention these words were associated with Azure Dragon.
A few minutes later, the shattered medical room was crowded, as everyone who had just left had returned.
Benny sat on a chair, visibly anxious, continually swallowing, "Cooperate, are we really... going to cooperate?"
"I’ve thought it over, and your point makes a lot of sense." Li Ming crossed his arms, earnestly saying, "I possess the technology to produce the Sublimator."
"Connet knows the coordinates, Benny knows the specific details about the Core Relics, for the three of us not to cooperate would simply be against all reason."
Sandro scratched his head, how did it again come back to cooperation after all this time?
"Why are we cooperating again, wasn’t that a wasteful fight just now?" he muttered, while Ulrich’s gaze was profound.
Azure Dragon had already achieved his goal, plundering the Torch Organization.
And now, it was targeting the Core Relics.
Combat is the most meaningless thing; achieving the goal is of utmost importance.
Cooperating again is just the optimal solution under the current circumstances, he couldn’t help but admire more.
