Dark Star is also a weapon refiner, but his situation is more extreme.
He had no prior knowledge of classical weapon crafting techniques; he simply adopted modern weapon crafting methods and specialized in research on prosthetics, modern firearms, and robots.
Because the crystal armor contains many classical weapon-refining techniques.
Therefore, Dark Star cannot create crystal armor.
He is a pure modern weapon refiner.
However, he is also a genius in the field of modern weapon crafting, and has extremely strong practical skills.
After hearing Dark Star's analysis, Mad Sword nodded in agreement.
"I will not comment on the thoughts of the members of the Supreme Council."
"But I... won't get involved in this matter."
The metallic aura circuits on the Dark Star Mask flickered, and it said, "Me too."
"See you next time, everyone!"
Dark Star observed the grim expressions on everyone's faces, then chuckled and hung up the communication.
As if to challenge him, Mad Sword abruptly ended the scene around the same time.
Subsequently, many high-ranking members of the Supreme Council remained silent for a long time, deeply shocked.
This is troublesome... These two are also familiar with the properties of the Immortal Ancient God-Construction.
Under overload mode, as long as it devours a large number of spirit stones, the current Immortal Ancient God is already capable of killing the Giant God, and its destructive power is extremely terrifying.
After the death of the giant god, the environmental limit increased, allowing it to continue evolving!
In other words, this object may be an important tool in future explorations of the universe.
As future leaders of the Star Alliance, Dark Star and Mad Sword certainly hope that their allies will be stronger.
They still have hope of replacing the Demon Spear and obtaining the Immortal Ancient God.
Or perhaps, taking a step back, it's simply to strengthen future allies.
They didn't mind supporting Lin Ye, a fellow genius cultivator.
Considering their relationship with Chu Lian'er, neither the Mad Sword Martial God nor the Dark Star Martial God, as the ports of the All Things Furnace, actually support dismantling the Immortal Ancient God!
The Dark Star Faction and the Mad Sword Faction wield immense influence and power within the final battle mechanism...
A councilor from the Eastern Continent said in a trembling voice, "This time, we are on the opposite side of the Demon Gun!"
"And yet, many more members of the decisive battle organization are supporting them instead?!"
Many high-ranking officials arrived with great anxiety.
Everyone had their own ideas.
"There's no other way... We must defeat the giant god first before we can talk about anything else!"
"We will provide full support to Chief Engineer Ji's gamble using our proxy organization!"
'Afterwards, Lin Ye mustn't find out...'
At least outwardly, we must maintain a neutral stance on this matter...
"Regarding their bets! Even if they are assigned to Chu Lian'er's camp, it will not change the fact that those researchers are under the Furnace of All Things faction."
"We must clarify this point first, so that they don't turn their guns on us later."
"As for Chief Engineer Ji... why did he agree to the Demon Gun's plan?"
"He was completely manipulated; he's so naive!"
Some lawmakers reassured others, saying, "There's no need to panic."
"The plan proposed by Demon Gun will be a very demanding test of his combat capabilities. Do you really think he can win?"
"Don't overestimate the power of an individual cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage!"
"I think we can not only defeat the Demon Gun, but also control the number of players we have to field in a more respectable manner."
"And let's hold back, so that his defeat is more reasonable and saves him face!" the councilor said with a deep smile. "Then, let's steadily push forward with the proposal to dismantle the Immortal Ancient Gods."
Without the support of Berserker and Dark Star.
Basically, the lawmakers who wanted to forcefully push through the dismantling plan have given up hope, as they now remotely control many seats.
After reaching a conclusion, the vice speaker sighed helplessly and said, "Meeting adjourned!"
The high-ranking officials quickly logged off, feeling somewhat uneasy.
As for Demon Spear Lin Ye, this cultivator from ancient times.
They were all feeling extremely overwhelmed at this point.
Despite being only a Golden Core Peak cultivator, he possesses the rare identity of an ancient person and the Eternal Longevity Ice, most of which had already thawed during the spiritual energy revival period!
Some were unlucky enough to decay in the Dharma-ending Age.
Awakening during the Linye period is unprecedented within the last 500 years.
He not only attracts a huge amount of attention, but he is also a cultivation genius.
The councilors felt a chill run down their spines.
When he became embroiled in a major factional struggle and rose to prominence...
The entire Star Alliance must be on high alert!
Chapter 229 The Cultivation of Chu Lian'er: The Dual Cultivation Stage (5k)
After the meeting.
A member of parliament hurried to a less crowded area, opened a soundproof barrier, and made a call.
After hanging up, his expression lightened.
Just then, a man in the distance waved and came over, winking at the councilor.
Upon seeing this, the councilor quickly opened the soundproof barrier and invited him in.
"Fellow Daoist, you too..."
"Are you going to defect too?"
"Ha..." the congressman who made the initial call chuckled, "I think too many people are blinded by a 20% chance of winning."
Another person sighed, "Yes..."
Both were high-ranking businessmen.
As long as the win rate is over 60% and the profits are sufficient, there's nothing they wouldn't dare to gamble on.
"An 80% or even close to 100% win rate are just calculation results. It's impossible to be absolutely certain of success!"
The councilor nodded and said, "Instead of dismantling the ancient immortals and gods, we should pledge allegiance to the Demon Spear as soon as possible."
"For the sake of the family's safety in the post-Giant era."
"If I happen to lose that 20%, then I'm out of luck!"
A sly glint flashed in the other man's eyes as he said, "Aren't you going to wait for the outcome of the duel in the Imitation Discipline Star? Right now, we're still unsure of his true talent."
"No, there will be many people wanting to join him then."
“I have to get here as soon as possible!” the congressman waved his hand.
He pondered for a moment and said, "If someone like Chief Engineer Chu can misjudge someone, then that Demon Gun must be something else entirely!"
The congressman has already contacted Chief Engineer Chu's subordinates at the Supreme Research Institute.
On behalf of his family, he expressed a desire for goodwill and requested that negotiations begin immediately.
At this time, the supporters of the All Things Forge faction made up the vast majority.
He chose a good opportunity to defect to the Immortal Ancient God faction.
The other person hesitated and said, "I think I'll wait a little longer."
The councilor shook his head: "You... just lack the courage!"
Supreme Research Institute.
Several weapon refiners from the All Things Forge faction walked to the transparent window of the "Immortal Ancient God Construction" isolation space.
A giant crystal armor with a robust torso and gracefully curved, yet-to-be-activated, light wings lay dormant before a massive control panel.
Beneath the smooth, black surface, a faint, shimmering light, like that of lava, flickered.
The intensity of the light shifted, as if the crystal armor were breathing.
Several weapon refiners stopped at the window and gazed silently.
"Such cold, hard colors, like metallic foundations deep underground, are hard to imagine no matter how you look at them..."
"It is a tree that is still growing."
"A brilliant idea, and a beautiful one at that..."
"Actually, I never wanted to take it apart in the first place; it was too perfect."
"Be careful what you say, don't let the chief engineer find out!" the older weapon refiner whispered.
At this moment.
After the meeting, some high-ranking officials' alignment with any particular faction subtly shifted.
In the Eastern Divine Land, in a magnificent and tall tower.
A lean and wiry member of parliament is testing his successor.
"Lin'er, do you think the council should continue to exist in the future?"
"Father..."
The heir stared wide-eyed, too afraid to answer.
The thin senator interlaced his fingers, leaned forward, and revealed a dangerous smile beneath his palms.
"Speak up, dare to think."
The heir shook his head cautiously and said, "A single leader would be more..."
"That's not the problem."
The gaunt senator pursed his lips slightly: "You, born in the age of giants, may not understand."
"When a strongman is stronger than all the rebels in the world combined, tell me, why should the parliament continue to exist?"
“Those powerful beings are born with teeth and exist as predators, and the Star Alliance’s centuries of taming them is coming to an end.”
An excited light flashed in the thin senator's eyes, as if he saw a young celestial beast spreading its wings, about to grow into a creature that would blot out the sky.
"Moreover, as an ancient cultivator, the Demon Spear has never been tamed by the Star Alliance; he is different from everyone else."
The heir stammered, "He's dangerous."
The councilor coughed twice and said, "Lin'er, our family has been supporting both Kuangjian and Anxing."
"No need to worry, this is an opportunity for us."
"It's time to place another bet."
The thin senator rubbed the armrest and glanced sideways into the distance.
Following this meeting, the dismantling support camp, which had previously held an absolute advantage, began to show signs of wavering.
All of this is because the Demon Lance holds a very special position in the Covenant, and the truth becomes clearer through debate.
Many people say that the vice speaker who chaired the meeting was careless.
however.
At this moment, the deputy speaker sat in his office, calmly flipping through the documents.
On the surface, he is the leader of the All Things Forge faction.
In fact, he did indeed tend to dismantle the ancient immortal gods.
