Chapter 614 That day, the brave Bertrand escaped!
After Xiaoyou took the Domination Gem off Bertrand's neck, Li Ming caught the Domination Gem immediately.
After the gem fell into Li Ming's hands, faint lines of erosion by the collapse energy appeared on his wrist.
It was red and tiny, wrapped around his wrist, but soon changed into another form.
The crimson light turned into the color of Inch Force and Thunderbolt, which was closer to the time when the Inch Heart Fist was performed.
However, the energy conversion rate was too high, and the light in his hand dissipated.
Li Ming suddenly felt a sense of emptiness, similar to the one he felt after being attacked by Yueya Tian several times, but he did not feel any other changes.
For example, like some other thoughts or something...
Li Ming was still thinking, but his thoughts were interrupted by Xiaoyou, who kept flying around him. Li Ming naturally knew the true thoughts of the Holy Sword [Yulandel].
"Okay, here you go!"
Li Ming grabbed the holy sword [Yulandel] and pressed the dominance gem onto Xiaoyou's sword.
"Ah, no, wash it clean before putting it in!" Li Ming ignored Xiaoyou's objection and just kept pushing it in. In the end, Xiaoyou could only accept it helplessly, "Come in, come in."
Li Ming shook the useless holy sword in his hand and couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"This gem can control the direction of particle movement, thereby interfering with the propagation of energy, causing it to present the energy distribution it desires. It feels a lot like Maxwell's demon."
Li Ming carefully felt the fluctuations of Honkai energy and expressed his feelings. Bianca was stunned. "Maxwell's demon, is it some kind of Honkai beast?"
Rita couldn't help but laugh, "Pfft, Lady Bianca, this is actually a monster invented by physicists."
"I remember there was a theoretical exam when you were promoted to A-rank Valkyrie." Li Ming looked at Bianca a little too much. Wasn't she a bit of a poor student? "Well, it seems I need to have a good talk with the Bishop about the quality of a Valkyrie."
"Yes, what Mr. Li Ming just mentioned are the characteristics of the Domination Crystal. With the Domination Crystal, I can control all kinds of energy on a large scale!" Xiao You froze for a while, then finally revived. "Thank you, Mr. Long! You've helped us a lot! I bow to you!"
Xiaoyou bowed in a very humane manner, which made Bianca click her tongue and mutter, "He's acting so polite in front of strangers."
But Rita couldn't help but smile, "Maybe it's because Xiaoyou likes you more, Lady Bianca!"
"Hey, being liked by a guy like this will only make me feel troubled, okay?"
While both sides were whispering, Shakespeare looked at Bertrand seriously. When it came to the matter of the emperor, Shakespeare became serious.
"Commodore Bertrand, do you know why your emperor has been maintaining the wall? Is it to... collect that scarce energy? Is it just the energy that that mad Indian fed to your emperor?"
"It's nothing, except that that energy is incredibly important to the Emperor! As time passes, the Emperor's power gradually wanes—you have to remember, he was already an octogenarian before the incident with the Indian madman." Bertrand sighed. "If everything goes as it will, then when Superman's power completely dissipates, the Emperor will most likely die in this world's Great Britain, in the imperial city he built with his own hands."
"So if you want to continue to obtain that kind of power, the only way for you at that time was the remaining potions. After all, those were the first ways you could access." Although it was a question, Li Ming's tone was very firm. Rome was not built in a day, so these were inevitable.
"Yes, but during this period, there was an incident where an old British officer who coveted immortality tried to steal the reagent. This was the Hudson Lowe incident I mentioned earlier."
Bertrand raised his paw. "All of this reminded the Emperor that he needed another energy source to replace the potion, preferably one that could be shared with his subjects. Meanwhile, the Emperor collected the Prophets' manuscripts and discovered the secret of the Hymn. In short, the Emperor obtained the secrets of both the Hymn and the Wall."
You can try to share this energy with other people. Li Ming began to wonder what this wall was, and Shengge already had some guesses.
"Is that hymn the three principles mentioned before?" Li Ming thought for a while. If the prophet was really Su, or even if he was not, he would have the same abilities as Su.
"Yes, first, you must not harm the whole, or allow the whole to be harmed. Second, unless it violates the first principle, individuals must not infringe on other individuals. Third, unless it violates the first or second principle, individuals must obey the orders of the whole." Compared to not eating, drinking, and doing nothing, these three principles impose less constraints on others.
"What about the wall?" Li Ming could see that Bertrand had forgotten most of the other things, but he remembered the contents of the three principles clearly.
So it seems that the person had actually tried the effect of the hymn before the experiment.
"So what happens next? What about the wall? If they were to transform you into this, they would have to screen everyone first after they'd been exposed to the reagents."
"After the reagents were injected into my body, I gained superhuman strength, but I was afraid and I ran away! The most loyal Bertrand actually ran away! And he ran away like a coward using his new superhuman strength."
Bertrand clearly looked like an evil giant lizard, but at this moment he started to cry.
Li Ming hugged his chest and looked at the guy. Should he say he was lucky or unlucky? He had finally obtained this kind of power, but he ran away because of fear.
"Even with the reagents and extensive preparations, the wall's deployment resulted in an unexpected loss. Even the Emperor, I saw his age in that instant." There was visible fear in Bertrand's eyes. "Many people were reduced to dust and dissipated into the air before they could even bask in the glory of the wall. Of the less than one-tenth of the people who remained, many were transformed into monsters, irrational monsters, not just humans, but animals as well... You haven't seen it before, it's pure hell on earth! I can no longer convince myself to follow the Emperor!"
Bertrand's words fell, and Li Ming fell silent. Shakespeare and the others couldn't imagine what that scene would be like, but Bianca and Rita were different. They could guess what it would be like. Li Ming sighed, "No, that's not your fault..."
This kind of large-scale induction of Honkai energy will inevitably cause the HK value to exceed the limit that the human body can withstand, but Bertrand seemed to be crazy and could not hear what he said.
