Honkai Impact: Did you meet the First Herrscher when you first arrived? !

Chapter 786 Mr. Li Ming, I'm here to discuss cooperation.

Snakes are creatures that exist in nature and are well-known to humankind.

The World Serpent, this creature, has no eyes, for all around it are watchful eyes, so it need not observe anything; nor does it have ears, for all around it are wind-following ears, so it need not listen to anything. It is a self-devouring, immortal, and perfectly formed creature, and the symbol of its head and tail joined together represents the incarnation of infinity.

The snake, one of the oldest symbols, is a link to countless minds and thoughts. Whether it is the feathered serpent god of ancient times, Jormungandr of Norse mythology, or the demon of Eden, these origins are found in mythology and knowledge, to the point that their origins are impossible to verify.

"Anyone who traces this back to its origins will find that the snake has long been rooted in every belief and in every corner of the world."

He strolled slowly down the street, a black umbrella covering his entire body. It wasn't raining, yet he was holding an umbrella. This strange sight didn't pique anyone's curiosity, allowing the man to blend into the crowd and move against the flow of people.

"Kassel College?" The man looked at the gilded plaque. There were no simple, unadorned large stones or pure white marble pillars at the entrance.

However, the mechs standing at the entrance added a cold and ruthless style.

He didn't go in through the main entrance, but lingered at the doorway, wondering, "Here?"

However, he was clearly not neglected, and soon someone noticed him at the door.

"Isn't this our Mr. Gray Serpent? Welcome!" Li Ming, who had just rewarded himself with a walk, saw Gray Serpent standing at the gate of his academy.

To be honest, it's not a very auspicious time of day.

"Oh...isn't this our Principal Li Ming? Did you just go to the gym?" Gray Snake's ability to adapt to local customs was clearly very strong. Even when faced with Li Ming's teasing, he was still able to easily catch the jokes Li Ming threw at him.

"Oh, yes, how did you know I just ate steamed buns and fried dough sticks?" The two of them talked at cross purposes, their conversation completely unrelated.

However, Gray Snake didn't care about any of this, nor did Li Ming. The fact that Gray Snake came to Li Ming's door meant that he had achieved some kind of goal.

"Want to come in and have a seat?" Li Ming walked ahead and pointed to the gate.

"It would be my pleasure." Gray Serpent simply bowed slightly.

However, Li Ming also paid more attention to the security guard at the entrance. This member of the combat unit who had retired from the former base of Anti-Entropy did not notice anything amiss with Gray Serpent.

"Optical invisibility or quantum technology?" Li Ming asked bluntly.

"Sacred Mark technology..." Gray Serpent didn't hide it, or rather, in Gray Serpent's eyes, this technology, which could be described as cheating, was nothing special.

This made Li Ming thoughtful. Was it the technology of the Holy Mark?

It's unclear whether this technology is derived from the Stigmata Space or is an effect of the Stigmata itself.

"This is the gymnasium, which is usually where we have combat classes... This is the training ground for mechas. After all, mechas take up a lot of space, so they need a larger area... This is the classroom... This is the library..." At this moment, Li Ming seemed to have transformed into the most enthusiastic tour guide in the entire Kassel College.

However, Gray Snake didn't seem interested in any of this. He would nod and smile as Li Ming spoke, as if he were a major shareholder waving money around and begging for investment.

However, after wandering around, Li Ming still took Gray Snake to his office. He originally wanted to go to Ishigami Sou's office, but considering that Ishigami Sou had been scratching his head in a meeting because of the chronology issue he mentioned last time.

Therefore, in order for Shi Shangshan to do more work, Li Ming decided to take on the task of receiving the gray snake himself.

A black umbrella leaned against the door, which caught Li Ming's attention. "The weather is so sunny, is it really necessary to use an umbrella?"

"It's a bit sunny."

Gray Snake spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly, leaving Li Ming momentarily speechless.

Fortunately, Gray Serpent spoke first, "Mr. Li Ming, I remember Kassel College developed adaptive armor, why haven't I seen it?"

"Oh, you mean that one? That's from HK company, it has nothing to do with Kassel College."

"Oh, is that so?"

Although Gray Snake's face was clearly covered by an iron mask, Li Ming sensed that the guy seemed to have suddenly realized something. "That's a real pity. I was hoping to get a good look at your school's advanced technology."

"Well, there's nothing I can do about that. If World Snake invests in HK Company, then I'll have the honor of introducing your company's business to Mr. Gray Snake."

"Alright, enough with the small talk, Mr. Li Ming. I'm here to discuss cooperation." Gray Serpent's straightforwardness didn't surprise Li Ming, but he was more interested in what Gray Serpent's intentions were.
