Chapter 463 Exploration
Su Mo tried to ask the fake owner Devourer several times, but unfortunately, he didn't get a response every time.
Although there was always a pimple in my heart, I could only give up in the end.
When the old man is in a better mood, ask again.
As for General Maihan, Su Mo can't just go and expose him just because Guangnao said that he has a problem. Leaving aside that he has no evidence at all, the most important point is that Su Mo himself does not know what is wrong with General Mai Han.
Looking back, it's not a big deal to be regarded as a psychopath, but if you are charged with a deliberate frame-up charge, you will be in big trouble.
After all, their identity is there.
At this moment, Mo Baoke's voice sounded in Su Mo's communication channel.
"The first round of operations is over, and everyone returns to the transport ship immediately to count the loot. Be quicker, and those who are late will not have dinner."
"yes!"
The response voices of the people continued to sound in the communication channel.
Su Mo was also slightly taken aback, a little miscalculated, the return time has been advanced, it seems that there is no time to search casually. Forget it, let's go back first.
After a long time, Su Mo drove the black steel back to the voyage. He skillfully controlled the mecha into the cargo hold of a medium-sized transport ship.
In the cargo hold, Zhao Bo and others had already returned.
All kinds of trophies are contained in the metal nets placed next to each mech.
In addition, Su Mo saw Mo Baoke wearing a mechanical armor, angrily reprimanding everyone returning home.
"Have your brains been kicked by donkeys? They all said to choose valuable things. Look at what you brought back, metal wreckage shells? You are going to sell scrap iron, please grow your brains, what is the most valuable, The complete equipment and energy devices inside the wreckage are the most valuable, even if you bring me back the main gun barrel or missiles."
Su Mo couldn't help but look at Mo Baoke with admiration. This guy is not good at fighting, but he is really good at searching, and his words hit the point.
At this time, Mo Baoke heard the sound of the mecha approaching, turned his head and looked over, and saw that it was Su Mo who was returning home, and his expression immediately changed 180 degrees.
"Oh, Su Mo, you're back, how's your harvest?"
"Ahem, sorry, I went out and looked around, but I didn't find anything."
Su Mo pointed awkwardly at his empty metal mesh.
The smile on Mo Baoke's face was a little stiff, but then he praised: "Open your eyes and come over and take a look, and learn from him. It's okay if you are not as good as Su Mo in terms of fighting skills. You are not as good as him in terms of vision. Everyone Su Mo knows that garbage should not be taken on ships, this is the attitude of doing things, rather lack than excess."
Su Mo's face kept twitching, and he gave a thumbs up secretly. He suddenly felt that Mo Baoke's ability to climb to this position was not completely useless.
This made him speechless to refute.
Hey~
Three days later, in the command room of the Hei Yao ship.
Li Ruiqi frowned as he watched the summary reports returned by the major operation teams.
Putmi asked, "Is the situation not optimistic?"
"See for yourself."
Li Ruiqi handed the summary report to Putmi.
"The overall income is not good, and some workers have been injured, so it's not worth it."
Putmi looked at the summary report carefully and said with a headache.
"It's normal that the income is not high, because all our operators are now exploring in the outer area, and this outer area has been searched by many people."
"Then what should I do? Give up this scheduled homework task?"
"How could it be possible to give up so easily, it seems that we have to plan to explore in depth."
Li Ruiqi replied lightly.
Putmi looked at Li Ruiqi in shock, and said after a long time: "I really want to go deep, isn't it too dangerous?"
"Wealth and wealth are in danger. As for risks, don't worry too much. Hei Yao will not approach. If the situation is really out of control, Hei Yao will not hesitate to break its arms to survive, abandoning all the staff and leaving. Of course this is Worst case scenario."
Although Li Ruiqi's tone was very flat, it made Putmi fall into silence.
"Then do it."
"Notify the following operation team, voluntarily sign up for in-depth exploration, and sign the electronic risk prediction letter."
Li Ruiqi gave the order calmly.
"yes."
"At the same time, inform Spade to ask the GT department to organize an elite expedition team to explore."
Dunkye mass burial deep in the starry sky.
A huge fortress made up of strangely shaped ship wrecks and various abandoned garbage emerged. Its uneven shell is embedded with various cannons and launch ports. On the surface of the front, there are dried monsters and human corpses one by one, just like trophies.
At the same time, there are a large number of operational mechanical spaceships, dragging all kinds of garbage debris, flying towards the fortress non-stop.
The whole fortress is like the bloody mouth of a devil, which makes people shudder.
And this fortress is the twilight fortress entrenched in the starry sky of Dunkye Mass Burial.
Inside the Twilight Fortress, a robot with a whole body made of trolo mithril metal sat on the command chair, staring at the huge virtual screen.
I saw the virtual image screen, presenting different images one by one.
There is monitoring of the operation area where garbage is being recycled, and there are also images of the smelting area inside the fortress. And the most middle image is to shoot the outskirts of the Mass Burial Starry Sky, and the Black Glory is in it.
Commanding the robot on the chair, the eyes glowed red and became brighter and brighter.
——
At this time in a broken ship.
Su Mo was driving the black steel mecha, but looked around helplessly. In the past three days, except for a small amount of garbage, he found nothing of value at all.
It seems that the job of Taobao is more difficult than imagined.
Su Mo originally wanted to get more energetic things, to charge the counterfeit owner and devourer with energy, to improve his own sense of existence, and then ask McHan about it.
Now that Su Mo looked at the rubbish he was scouring, he was too embarrassed to ask Guangnao to come out to eat.
If it misunderstands later and thinks that it is really a garbage collection bin, it will be troublesome.
As for those Type I creatures, the reason why Su Mo didn't dare to let them absorb them. That's because Su Mo feels this way, no different from Hei Xiang.
At this moment, a new notification popped up on Su Mo's console screen.
"Operation rules change: the exploration area is now unblocked, any operation team can apply to the superior for in-depth operations, and needs to sign a risk prediction letter!"
"Reminder 1: For all in-depth operation teams and personnel, the loot points gained will be calculated at double."
"Reminder 2: In the event of irresistible factors, when the Black Glory is in danger, the mission may be temporarily suspended, and support and assistance may not be available at that time."
Su Mo was also secretly surprised when he saw this reminder, that Hei Yao had really released the restraint.
At this moment, Kolev's voice sounded on the communication channel, and he said very seriously: "Listen everyone, you should see the latest changes to the mission rules issued by the above. I will not stop you from exploring in depth, but I hope you Think it through."
In the communication channel, everyone fell silent.
In fact, Kolev's words also concealed a warning meaning, and the risk was extremely high.
After a long time, Zhao Bo and others replied in the communication channel: "Good captain, we will carefully consider it."
Su Mo thought for a while, and finally applied for in-depth homework after a while of manipulation.
Although it is risky to go deep, at least it is not directly rushing into the monster's lair, and the risk is still within the acceptable range.
The periphery is like a bone that has been gnawed clean by a dog, and there is really no trace of flesh to pick out.
Soon a risk prediction letter popped up.
Su Mo signed his name without hesitation and chose to submit.
Soon a prompt box popped up.
"Congratulations to Lieutenant Su Mo, your application is approved, and good luck!"
Su Mo didn't hesitate anymore, he pushed the joystick, and drove the black steel straight to the depths alone.
To be honest, Su Mo didn't know why at this moment, not only did he not have any fear and fear in his heart, but he was very excited.
Time passed little by little.
Su Mo has already driven the black steel to a certain extent, and there are more garbage floating in the starry sky around than outside, and the wreckage is about to show a qualitative leap in both size and quality.
Even Su Mo saw the wreckage of a medium-sized battleship, which was broken into two halves.
Su Mo swallowed involuntarily, as if seeing a big cake.
However, Su Mo restrained his greed and looked at the wreckage around vigilantly. Soon he realized that something was wrong, not to mention whether there were any monsters hiding inside the wreckage of the ship.
Just behind the large pieces of wreckage floating nearby, he became aware of several pairs of eyes staring at him.
But there seems to be a difference between the hidden monsters and normal monsters here. Each monster seems to have its own hunting range. If you don't get close to it, it won't come out.
Another point is that because there is too much mechanical garbage and pollution left here, and the monsters here are very good at hiding, the scanning device seems to be disturbed here, and the effect is very poor.
Su Mo calculated that these monsters did not pose much threat to him. But once he entered the ship to explore, encountered some monsters, and ran away, if these monsters came out from nowhere and stopped him, it would be fatal.
So Su Mo controlled the black steel mech, raised the alloy spear in his hand, and flew towards a monster hiding the wreckage without making a fuss.
Clearance begins!
In the command room of Hei Yao, the operator is reporting.
"Report: At present, a total of more than 122 official combatants have applied for in-depth exploration. According to the positioning, they have already broken into the third-layer area."
In order to look directly at the starry sky of Dunkye mass burial, Li Ruiqi roughly divided the entire starry sky into seven layers.
The seventh floor is the central area. It is said that there was once a meat grinder battlefield, where a large number of warships and monsters fell. It is rumored that due to the influence of negative energy, more terrifying monsters were born from the dead wreckage, and no one who entered it came out alive.
Li Ruiqi sat on the chair, tapped his fingers on the armrest and listened to the report quietly, and he asked.
"Except for the regular team members?"
"There are 4,320 informal personnel going deep."
The operator stared at the data in his hand for a moment, and then he opened his mouth to report.
"It really complies with that sentence, people die for money and birds die for food."
Li Ruiqi said sarcastically.
Standing aside, Putmi coughed, and quickly smoothed things over and said to Li Ruiqi: "Don't worry about those little things, how can amateurs be compared with regular ones."
"You are right, but when amateurs are established under the guidance of regular personnel to explore, the situation is different."
Li Ruiqi turned his head and glanced at Putmi.
Putmi's expression suddenly became a little unnatural, and he also cursed secretly in his heart: "This group of idiots, no matter how anxious they are, don't eat so ugly."
The formal exploration team only went in with more than 300 people, and more than 4,000 people followed in the follow-up.
Isn't this different from locusts?
But Putmi still has to protect the interests of these idiots, after all, his superior position is inseparable from the full support of these people.
"These are actually not important. This ruined starry sky is so big. Let them act as pathfinders, and it can be considered as a contribution."
Putmi persuaded.
Li Ruiqi didn't say anything more.
In fact, it's not that he is so easy to talk and indulge these guys.
But he also had no other choice, each of these guys was extremely powerful. Don't look at them being very obedient and gathered together to form a federation.
In fact, everyone has their own calculations. The federation has just been formed, and what is needed is unity, not separation.
If I don't turn a blind eye and close my eyes and let them eat some, then all of them will turn their faces.
Maybe it's done internally first.
This result is not what Li Ruiqi wants to see, of course there are disadvantages and advantages as well.
If one day, the Federation can truly integrate its interior, then its terrifying side will be revealed.
Besides, it doesn't matter if you let them jump around.
At the beginning, Long Ming let his side carry out the expedition plan, which made the momentum so huge. On the one hand, he was very confident in the expedition here.
In fact, behind the scenes, there is another most important reason, which is to make all the chaebols and oligarchs feel that this is the main force of exploration, and they all follow the boat.
On the other side, Long Ming gathered most of the special forces to form a pure expeditionary force to explore another star field. Although the scale of that group is not as large as here, it is much purer.
I believe there will be very substantial benefits.
As long as the federation is stronger than these guys, they can be suppressed, slowly flattened, and finally integrated into the federation little by little.
——
In the starry sky, Su Mo controlled the black steel mech to approach the wreckage of the battleship in front of him a little bit. The alloy spear in his hand was stained with black blood, and he unceremoniously strangled all the lurking monsters around.
At this time, Su Mo's attention was all focused on the wreckage of the ship. The wreckage of the medium-sized battleship was very large, and the size of the black steel mecha was very small for the ship.
Soon Su Mo controlled the mech to get into the ship from the break.
I saw broken equipment everywhere in the ship, and some dry and viscous liquid remained on the ground of these equipment, but no corpse was seen.
Su Mo narrowed his eyes. Just looking at these traces, he can be sure that there are many monsters entrenched on this ship.
Of course, this is not entirely a bad thing. In a sense, it proves in disguise that this wreck of the ship has not been developed, and its value should be very high.
Su Mo controlled the black steel mech to walk in step by step.
When he walked to the inner passage of the ship, a pair of green eyes opened on the top, and then an ugly head drilled down, and the mouth was split open, revealing sharp teeth.
Su Mo stopped in his black steel mecha, squinting his eyes.
In the next second, Su Mo yanked the joystick.
Immediately afterwards, Type I and Type II pollution monsters and toothed beasts jumped down, and they opened their mouths and bit them.
Su Mo controlled the bulky black steel mecha to dodge the sneak attack, and at the same time pierced the mouth of a Type I Cynodont with a backhand shot, and then swung his spear across it, sweeping the leading Type II Cynodont away. Mecha is like a super flexible fat man.
Within a few minutes, all the toothed beasts that sneaked up on him were killed.
But Su Mo did not relax at all, he was always vigilant and continued to explore.
After a long time, Su Mo searched the entire ship roughly.
He looked a little helpless, he didn't find anything of great value, but luckily the main body of the ship was well preserved.
If you disassemble it, you should be able to disassemble a lot of good things.
But such a large ship cannot be dismantled by Su Mo alone. It requires a group of professional operators to dismantle it.
Just when Su Mo was driving the mecha and was about to leave.
Su Mo stopped suddenly. He turned his head and looked at the metal wall next to him. He observed it carefully.
Suddenly, Su Mo controlled the black steel mech to swing the alloy spear and hit the metal wall.
Boom!
A metal concealed door was smashed open, revealing an entrance.
Su Mo was also a little lucky that he almost missed it. He didn't expect this ship to have a hidden door.
So Su Mo drove the black steel mecha and walked in. Inside was a storage room with metal packaging boxes placed there.
so lucky? Su Mo couldn't believe it.
Although he still doesn't know what is in these boxes. But even the ammunition is quite valuable, after all, the packaging is so good, and there are a lot of them.
Su Mo was not an indecisive person either, so he went up and started dismantling the boxes without saying a word.
Soon the box was opened, and the contents of the box made Su Mo's eyelids twitch.
The package inside is a bottle of biological raw liquid.
Su Mo checked carefully. These stock solutions were bioprocessed products extracted from mutated monsters, and were used to synthesize genetic medicines.
This stuff is extremely valuable.
Don't think that the City of the Star Ring sells Type I genetic medicine so cheaply, it's because the City of the Star Ring sells it so cheaply on purpose.
When the federal government tried to synthesize it by itself, it discovered how expensive the raw materials were.
The most critical of these is the biological stock solution.
These stock solutions must be extracted from mutated monsters, and not all monsters are suitable for extraction, only certain monsters are suitable for extraction.
Therefore, its value is comparable to that of a star stone, and it can be called a soft star stone.
Su Mo quickly opened other boxes, only to find that they were all biological liquids. Especially when unpacking the innermost box, Su Mo's breathing became a little heavier.
That box is type II biological stock solution, which is used to make type II genetic medicine, and it is of great value.
Su Mo took a deep breath, and it seemed that his timing was really good.
He tapped it a little, and there are about 100 boxes of Type I biological stock solution, with 5 bottles in each box, and 10 boxes of Type II biological stock solution, with 5 bottles in each box.
He picked up the communicator and was about to send the coordinates when he suddenly hesitated.
In the end, he still didn't send the coordinates. He remembered what Sun Duoxiang said, and his expression changed for a while.
In the end, Su Mo started to do it. He took boxes of biological stock solution out of the ship. Hide it in the debris of junk floating in nearby space, which is worthless at a glance.
Su Mo thought about it, these things are hidden here, and Sun Duoxiang will be notified to pick them up when the time comes.
You can also buy some things you need if you exchange them for star coins later, or you can exchange for some star stones and power stones.
This thing is a hard currency, unlike the federal currency, no matter how much money is exchanged for star stones and power stones, no one is willing to exchange it.
In fact, it's not that Su Mo has no principles and is unwilling to hand in.
But now everyone is doing this, and everyone is prioritizing their own growth.
At least half of the fighters who came in to explore first. During the exploration process, information was deliberately disclosed to those who followed up.
Another point, Su Mo is very clear about how much he has now. He has never been arrogant, even when he held so many gold points in his hand and was comparable to the Federation alone, he never swelled up.
Because Su Mo knows one thing very well, he is like a grain of rice and a pearl compared to the Federation.
The federation is not as weak as imagined, on the contrary, in Su Mo's eyes, the federation is an extremely terrifying existence.
Even in comparison with other civilizations, Su Mo is not optimistic about them at all.
The gold point that the federation took out at the beginning was just on the bright side, to put it bluntly. Back then in Star Ring World, how many organizations, chaebols, capital and oligarchs were secretly collecting.
And the federal government is also secretly collecting, as for how much, no one knows!
One must know that they had participated in the Earth Cup earlier, so how could they be unprepared.
The reason why the current federation looks a little weak. That's just because the people inside have their own ideas and are not united at all.
The whole system is like a sleeping beast, and when it really wakes up, it will be frightening.
And I am just a lucky guy with better luck. To put it bluntly, I was already amazed by the fact that I got so many gold points. But even if you give yourself several times more, it won't help. The federation has so many people, they work hard to develop, and it only takes a few months to surpass themselves every minute.
They are not of the same size at all, which is why Su Mo hugged this big tree tightly instead of doing it alone.
After all, it is good to enjoy the shade under the big tree.
Good birds must also know how to choose a tree to live on.
——
In the starry sky, Sun Duoxiang led the Lin family's private team to explore nervously.
Li Duhuai respectfully said to Sun Duoxiang: "Brother Sun, is this area?"
"It should be right, the coordinates that Lu Qi (a member of the reserve team of the GT department) sent us are here."
Sun Duoxiang looked left and right, and replied uncertainly.
"I tried to contact Lu Qi just now, but I couldn't get in touch at all. Could it be that something happened to him?"
Li Duhuai said worriedly.
"Don't talk nonsense, maybe he is nearby, but the communication is interfered."
Sun Duoxiang said that in his mouth, but he was also muttering in his bones.
At this moment, a team member shouted in surprise: "Look, isn't that the target we are looking for?"
Sun Duoxiang looked along, and in the distant starry sky of the ruins, there was a medium-sized transport ship that was damaged here, surrounded by spaceship debris.
"That's right, that's the place. There must be something in stock for such a big ship. Brother Sun, let's go up and explore."
The people below said excitedly.
Sun Duoxiang's eyelids were twitching, and he said cautiously: "Wait a minute, I'll try to contact Lu Qi again."
