Cottrell's outspokenness is not a sign of trust in Li Ming. Or self-confidence.

Of course, Li Ming also fully believed that with Cottrell's means, it was very possible to achieve this goal, but at the moment, Li Ming really needed this person, and said with a stern face: "Rescue Biggs...... It's not that easy, we are facing three major galaxies, among which there are a large number of second-tier civilizations, you and I are both in the first-tier, if you save people...... Isn't it unrealistic. ”

Cottrell's face instantly became serious when he heard this, and he said: "Of course, this will be life-threatening, so I am still fifty percent sure in my heart when I find you." ”

And Li Ming twitched the corners of his mouth and said coldly: "You can be sure, I will definitely cooperate with you." ”

Kurt raised his eyes slightly, smiled faintly, and said, "I said, cooperate with me, but your only way out, and...... I can help you get into the second zone. ”

"Huh?!"

As soon as he heard the four words of the second interval, Li Ming immediately turned his eyes, and there was immediately a little interest in his sharp eyes.

Entering the second interval can be extremely important to Li Ming, and the temptation to raise the height of civilization is naturally difficult for people to refuse.

Li Ming's performance revealed a strong interest, which was also expected by Cottrell, and after a weird smile, he said: "Let you enter the second interval, your strength will improve, which will be of greater help to me, and it will also be a good opportunity for you." ”

Li Ming's eyes were fixed on each other, and he said, "It seems that even if I don't touch you today, you will take the initiative to find me." ”

Cottrell nodded slightly, then slowly stood up and said, "Of course, you are an integral part of my plan this time. ”

Li Ming saw what the other party said, and under his eyes, Cottrell really wanted to cooperate with Li Ming.

For Li Ming, the importance of this cooperation is not that it can advance to the second interval, but that Li Ming needs to rescue Gabi, relatively speaking, this is indeed an opportunity, but it is still extremely important for Li Ming to be able to advance to the second interval.

Next, Li Ming and Cottrell began to discuss the details of the cooperation.

The two are negotiating, and a meeting is also underway in the remote outer reaches of the Land of Long Change.

This meeting is still a tripartite meeting, which is Elle and Storian from the Milky Way, as well as Takehephilo from the Triangulum Galaxy and Thyssen from the Andromeda Galaxy.

The four of them gathered around the table and talked about something.

"Has the signal wave aircraft been dispatched?"

Takehephilo turned his gaze to Turias.

Although Turias had a look of displeasure on his face, he forcibly nodded after some hesitation.

At this time, Takei Philo immediately turned his gaze to Thyssen.

Thyssen also glanced back at the other party and said, "The orders of the command are naturally to be carried out, but don't forget, although the problem personnel are on the side of the personnel of our Andromeda Galaxy, you people from the Triangular Galaxy have no right to interfere." ”

Hearing this, Takehephilo smiled lightly, looked at Thyssen coldly, and said, "Thyssen, this involves the distribution of easy energy, and it is not for you and me to have the final say, and ...... For those two prisoners, we have no interest in the Triangulum galaxy, we only care about whether we can catch Cottrell and Li Ming. ”

"Don't forget...... Your Xuanfang is still in our hands. ”

Takei Philo finally warned.

Thyssen twitched the corners of his mouth, glanced at the other party contemptuously, and said: "The entire Spreg Star has been completely blocked, it is impossible for these two people to escape, the signal aircraft has been dispatched, it is difficult to say whether it can lead out those two people." ”

Takehefiro's expression was relatively flat, and said: "The agreement on this cooperation has been made very clear, and it is also formulated at the top, to put it bluntly, you and I are just subordinates who implement the agreement, and it is naturally best to resolve this matter peacefully, once there is any chaos in the middle, then the matter will be serious." ”

Thyssen's eyes were half-squinted, already disgusted with the people around him.

The atmosphere of the three-party talks is not harmonious, but this is also normal, after all, there are already conflicts between the Triangular Galaxy and the Andromeda Galaxy, and there are long-standing historical grievances, and it is not easy to sit here together at this moment.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Thyssen still spoke: "According to the content of the agreement, after completing the arrest of Li Ming and Kurt, we will distribute the Yi energy, but there are some things I still have to remind you, Takei Firo." ”

"We both ...... They all have the right to terminate the agreement at any time. ”

The last sentence was like a bomb exploding in the minds of the three parties.

Obviously, the so-called agreement is not binding, but only a formal framework, and the value of this kind of agreement is nothing more than to maintain restraint before Li Ming and Cottrell are found.

And Thyssen's reminder made Takehephilo and Turias both look at Thyssen again, and there was a deep meaning in their eyes, but they didn't say anything.

Talking here, Li Ming, who was in the cave, had already come to another independent cave room.

This cave was connected to the empty cave outside, which was excavated by the insect before, and Li Ming looked up and looked around as soon as he entered it.

The entire cave is more than ten meters high and dozens of meters wide, which is not a small place.

Li Ming walked back and forth inside, inspecting and saying, "Tell me, how are you going to help me advance." ”

Cottrell stood behind Li Ming, flipped his right hand, took out a black sphere, looked at the black sphere in his hand, and said with a smile: "About the advancement of civilization, this is a project that I have been studying. ”

"That's why I developed the [Advanced Pod], a device that can replace the ability of the ruins."

Cottrell continued.

Although it was very simple to say from his mouth, Li Ming couldn't help but vibrate invisibly when he heard it, and his eyes looked back at each other with even a little surprise.

Cottrell didn't care, and continued: "I might as well tell you that the advanced cabin is to replace the ruins with a kind of equipment, and inject the power of the flowing clouds into the body of civilized creatures, which has achieved the purpose of advancement, but ...... It was a failed project......"

"Failure?"

Li Ming's face changed slightly.

Cottrell didn't respond immediately, and with a wave of his right hand, the black orb in his hand was thrown out.

As soon as the object flew into the air, there was a muffled 'bang', and after a flash of bright light, a huge device suddenly appeared on the ground.

This device is more than three meters high and more than five meters wide, like a round pier, and the surface is metallic silver, giving people a sense of science and technology.

Li Ming looked at this device and was immediately attracted to it, and his eyes looked at it carefully.

And Cottrell spoke: "This device can carry less than twenty flowing cloud powers, which is still far from the ruins, and besides, ...... It's that its R&D cost is much higher than the synthesis cost of Renxu, so ...... I'm locating it as a failure. ”

"At the moment, I've only made two, and now I'll take out one for you to use, so that you can reach the second interval without any problem."

Cottrell continued.

Li Ming was stunned when he heard this, but soon looked at the equipment in front of him again.

At this time, Li Ming had already shrouded his consciousness in this device, and carefully examined the structure and structure inside.

Li Ming is also a master of synthesis, with biological civilization, if the equipment in front of him is a biosynthesis technology, Li Ming can naturally understand some principles, at least Li Ming must ensure absolute safety.

Looking his eyes up and down, Li Ming already knew it, and couldn't help nodding secretly.

Li Ming has to admire Cottrell for this, it is not too much to call him a genius, and the most important thing is that this guy can always develop some eye-catching equipment.

Under the inspection of Li Ming's consciousness, he basically understood the things in front of him, and the principle of this device was indeed similar to that of Renxu, which was also to convert the energy of the power of the flowing clouds and inject it into the body to achieve the purpose of absorbing and advancing the level.

Looking at Li Ming's satisfied expression, Cottrell continued: "Although it is a failure, this device still has advantages, it can completely control the power of the flowing clouds and the absorption speed of the body, and avoid any celestial phenomena that should not happen, which also avoids a lot of unnecessary troubles. ”

This advantage is indeed extraordinary, because in the ordinary advancement, there will be more or less energy overflow, forming celestial phenomena, which attracts people's attention, especially in the current environment, if there are really celestial phenomena to attract people from the three major galaxies, it will be very bad.

Li Ming looked at it like this, and after nodding with satisfaction, his gaze returned to Cottrel, looked him up and down, and couldn't help asking: "You can develop this device, and you can synthesize ruins, with your means, you shouldn't be only a level 1.3 civilization." ”

Hearing this, Cottrell smiled again, but did not respond immediately, looked at Li Ming quietly with a pair of eyes, hesitated for a while, and said: "You still noticed this, you might as well tell you, this is the difference between me and you, I ...... The focus is on cognition, and I believe that cognition is the manifestation of the strong. ”

Saying this, Cottrell's right hand flipped again, and a star bag had appeared in his hand, and then he stepped to the front of the device, his right hand was raised slightly, and the blue light flashed, and the power of the flowing clouds flew out of it.

After a few seconds, Cottrell grasped the palm of his right hand and put away the star bag, and at this time, the power of eighteen flowing clouds was already floating in the air.

Looking at the power of the flowing clouds in the air, Cottrell said: "This amount of flowing cloud power is already the limit of this equipment, as for how far you can advance, it depends on yourself." ”

As he spoke, the power of the flowing clouds in the air had slowly fluttered, like patches of blue leaves.
