This Is Really Not Mechanical Ascension Chapter 614

[ … words ]

Hart was somewhat speechless about the simplicity that Li Ming spoke of, thinking that the boy truly did not know when he was well off.

The Mechas manufactured by Azure Dragon are sturdy enough to withstand the combined attack of two S-Level Life Forms and even protect an operator who is merely a B-Level Life Form from any harm.

Just on this merit alone, Azure Dragon qualifies as a Casting Star Mechanic.

Of course, it couldn’t be exactly confirmed that the Mecha was fabricated by Azure Dragon, but the repair of the Star Slaying Gun was done in front of everyone.

In the eyes of these high-level Mechanics, that was absolutely shocking.

It seemed he just tapped a few codes, but in reality, right after Ulysses conveyed the message, a Divine Craftsman Level Mechanic indicated they could certify immediately.

Li Ming nodded as if he understood and Hart felt a stir in his heart, continuing, “Of course, there are also some dissenting voices in the association, given the troubles caused by Lord Azure Dragon.”

“But the Mechanician Association only certifies the mechanical level, ignoring everything else.”

“True to the Mechanician Association.” Li Ming praised, implying that they disregarded the possible repercussions from the Star Abyss Empire and chose to still welcome Azure Dragon, doing a small favor.

“Speaking of, isn’t there also…” Li Ming gestured a small circle.

“You mean the [Proof of Casting Star]… here it is.” Hart smiled, and as he spoke the lined door behind him was pushed open.

Another Dwarf Mechanical Master, carrying an exquisitely crafted metal box, walked in.

“[Proof of Casting Star], please pass it on.”

The individual presented the box with both hands, Li Ming also stood up, bowed, and received it with both hands, opening it to see a delicate badge resting on purple velvet.

At the center was a complex geometric pattern made up of multiple symmetrical triangles and circles, surrounded by a circle of tiny metal ores that shimmered faintly.

Li Ming touched it lightly with his fingertip, and sure enough—

[Proof of Casting Star–Consumable: A badge personally crafted by a Divine Craftsman Level Mechanic.

Control Conditions: Ten million metal energy

Control Ability–Witness: Can elevate mechanical-related professions.]

It really is a Professional Promotion Device, needing just ten million metal energy?

Such a bargain.

Now, a sincere smile appeared on Li Ming’s face, “The craftsmanship is truly extraordinary.”

Hearing this, the two Mechanical Masters glanced at each other and also showed a smile, “This was personally crafted by a Divine Craftsman, using the most ancient manual forging techniques at the Sleeping Fire Forge.”

Li Ming repeatedly agreed.

The other party also gave him an account to log into the personal backend of the Mechanician Association, where he could link his company and publicize various creations for verification; this was also crucial.

Upon leaving here, the two Mechanical Masters even wanted to see him off.

But Li Ming waved them off, declining such a grand gesture.

“Why the disguise this time?”

Just as he stepped out of the Mechanical Association, Dark Night’s figure silently appeared, following beside Li Ming, looking him over in slight surprise.

Li Ming had changed his face; his height, appearance, and the positions of his facial features were only minutely adjusted, making him look completely different.

Previously, although Li Ming had no informational dissemination, his appearance had not been altered.

“The news has already been spread, there’s no need to be so conspicuous,” Li Ming shrugged.

Dark Night paused, pondering for a moment before understanding.

What news? Naturally, it was that Azure Dragon was temporarily keeping a low profile, and Li Ming, representing him, was handling his public affairs.

This made him eye Li Ming skeptically, “What exactly does your master intend to do? He isn’t using you as bait, is he? Who is he trying to lure?”

The more Dark Night thought about it, the more it felt off. Throwing Li Ming out in the open while hiding himself, and brazenly doing business in the Chaotic Star Gap, wasn’t he afraid of being sought out by the Star Abyss Empire?

“Ha…” Li Ming shook his head and chuckled, “I’m not too sure myself.”

Looking at Dark Night who was deep in thought, this was precisely the effect he wanted; the more mysterious Azure Dragon was, the better, and the more indecipherable his intentions, the better.

Upon boarding the shuttle, Dark Night accompanied him back to the hotel, but he didn’t follow him upstairs, straightforwardly stating, “The deals I had with your teacher are completely settled, I have other matters, so I’ll be leaving now.”

“Thank you for your help.” Li Ming was very polite. Dark Night had not only completed the transactions within his duties but had also provided additional assistance.

“Be careful with yourself. With such high development potential, I hope Azure Dragon can cover you; otherwise, it’d be a pity.” Dark Night gave him a deep look, leaving these last words before vanishing into thin air.

Li Ming pondered for a moment before heading upstairs.

“Fuck, guess what, I just went to the cafeteria for a meal and encountered several A-Level Life Forms, three of them! Damn, a full three!”

In the lobby of the floor, Sandro was staring wide-eyed and talking loudly to Ulrich and others sitting on the sofa,

“Moreover, two of them were definitely stronger than me. When did A-Level Life Forms become so worthless?”

“That’s normal.” Ulrich’s expression was indifferent, utterly disliking Sandro’s overly dramatic behavior:

“Think about it, what place is this, and where do we live? In such a place, if you don’t encounter a few A-Level life forms, I’d actually be suspicious.”

“Of course, I know that.” Sandro also disliked Ulrich’s aloof demeanor: “Knowing it is one thing, but seeing it with your own eyes is another. I was just expressing my amazement; I don’t need your lecture.”

“He’s back.” Monroe looked toward the elevator from which Li Ming was coming out, “Did Dark Night leave?”

Li Ming nodded.

“Did you get the Genetic Seed?” Ulrich also looked over and inquired.
