Chapter 1336: Chapter 684: Outlook

"I am willing to place the Dominator Flesh under your supervision." Abel immediately said solemnly, "Giving birth to an Ultimate Life Form is nothing compared to the Eternal Abyss."

"But the risks it brings are immeasurable. The Eternal Abyss has already sent people to assassinate Lord Li Ming. I believe your request must be for the entire Interstellar’s sake."

"I hope both of you can cooperate, after all, it’s only a hundred years."

Malcolm and Antigo glanced sideways at Abel. This guy is already Li Ming’s puppet, can he be trusted?

They didn’t bother with Abel. Malcolm hesitated for a moment, looked at Li Ming, and asked, "Why a hundred years?"

This period is actually not long. Since the threat of the Eternal Abyss is imminent now, it should be even more pressing a hundred years later.

Li Ming had already restrained his killing intent and replied indifferently, "If I said that in a hundred years, I might have the chance to defeat the Eternal Abyss, would you believe me?"

Defeat the Eternal Abyss?

Malcolm’s eyelids twitched violently, and Antigo’s throat moved.

The power of the Eternal Abyss is indisputable. Malcolm clearly remembered his shock and uncontrollable despair when he learned about the data regarding the Eternal Abyss.

But like those before him, he quickly adapted to the situation, because he couldn’t expect to see the Eternal Abyss active even at the end of his lifetime.

Who would have thought, suddenly, the Dominator of the Eternal Abyss appeared in the Main Universe, which was enough to astonish him, let alone Li Ming’s words.

In the long history of the universe, not to mention those civilizations buried in even more distant history.

With clearly recorded civilizations like the Holy Spirit Civilization and the Terrax Civilization, they both possess several Ultimate Level Life Forms, much stronger than these civilizations still exploring the path of evolution.

Yet before the Eternal Abyss, they still ended up as mere history.

In just a hundred years, Li Ming dares to claim he can defeat the Eternal Abyss?

Malcolm instinctively didn’t believe it, but then, a sliver of hope rose.

After all, the guy in front of him has already defied many universal laws.

Moreover, Abel was right about one thing. The Eternal Abyss had already sent people to assassinate Li Ming, making them destined enemies.

Under such circumstances, listening to Li Ming might not be a bad decision.

Of course, another point is that their Ultimate Gene Seed research progress is slow, unlikely to succeed in decades, taking up more than half of the hundred years, just a bit more delay.

As for the most crucial part, it’s still Li Ming’s threat. Even an Ultimate Life Form couldn’t withstand a single shot, what choice is there but to obey?

He and the mechanical bodies under his command, if they employ decapitation tactics, no one can withstand it.

The matter is crucial, allowing Malcolm no room for slow deliberation. After considering all aspects, he finally spoke slowly, "I can agree to your request."

His words turned, however, "But placing the Dominator Flesh under your supervision is impossible. You can send people for regular contact to ensure the progress of our research."

Seeing Malcolm had decided, Antigo immediately followed, "Indeed, that is my stance too, I hope you can understand."

Malcolm was speechless, this guy is quite cunning.

"Alright." Li Ming did not press aggressively. Even if he didn’t say it, whether the Federation and the Star Alliance could achieve any breakthrough with the Genetic Seed in a hundred years is still uncertain.

This threat was merely precautionary, to instill a sense of fear in them.

Seeing Li Ming agreed, Malcolm also breathed a sigh of relief, but then heard him say, "There’s one more thing."

Malcolm’s heart tightened.

Li Ming spoke slowly, "I suggest you lift the trade ban. You should have thoroughly examined the Mechanical Seed by now, there’s no backdoor, and it’s impossible for us to control remotely."

"It’s merely business, no need to be overly cautious."

Malcolm and Antigo exchanged glances. The Empire, Federation, and Star Alliance have always used security as a reason.

Prohibiting the conventional sale of the Mechanical Seed within their borders was meant to curb Azure Dragon’s development, but now, there’s nothing to curb.

They could only nod in agreement, promising to lift the ban upon their return.

Subsequently, Abel conducted a brief exchange over some matters, primarily to align on this issue, with Li Ming having established the stance here, preventing those two from backstabbing later.

Malcolm and Antigo had complex emotions but were too lazy to argue with Abel, whose reliance on Li Ming was evident, and both agreed.

The Leader Level meeting ended, and the projection lights around gradually dissipated. Abel’s expression changed constantly, looking at Li Ming, he couldn’t help but ask, "When will the Eternal Abyss attack?"

In his view, going against the Eternal Abyss has become a foregone conclusion, so preparations must be made.

"No need to worry about that for now." Li Ming shook his head.

Seeing Li Ming unwilling to elaborate, Abel didn’t press further but reminded softly, "The Federation and the Star Alliance may not necessarily follow your arrangements obediently."

"They better behave," Li Ming’s tone was obscure, as long as a mechanical body entered the laboratories of the Federation and the Star Alliance, he could locate their exact position.

These things, he naturally wouldn’t tell Abel; he merely said, "Focus on handling the current matters first."

Glancing at the smart terminal, Reynolds and Mikhail had sent him numerous messages, filled with shock, astonishment, and situation reports.

"In about a month and a half, Reynolds and Mikhail’s mechanical bodies will arrive, at your disposal."

Li Ming paused, his eyes glimmering, "As for the High-level Life Form Union personnel, they will only handle external interference. I will warn them not to meddle in domestic affairs."
