Chapter 11 Star Ore

As he said that, Zhang Qiang lit up the cheap cigarette in his hand and took a deep puff.

"Heh, he's just an ordinary, lucky boy who relies on his good grades, but this is no longer the same as in school!"

Zhang Qiang threw the cigarette butt in his hand to the ground, crushed it with his feet, and looked to the east.

"Sooner or later, I will find you..."

...

Duan Ming didn't know all this, and even if he knew, he probably wouldn't care too much.

After all, there are so many people and things in this world, and it's impossible to take everyone and everything to heart. Absolute strength can save you a lot of trouble and worries.

Looking at the Fire Rock Beast that is about to upgrade again, Duan Ming feels like everything is a dream.

It's been less than a week, and it has already been upgraded to the third-level base, and is heading towards the fourth-level base. There is hope that it can reach the fourth-level base today.

He also received the Pioneer Alliance system announcement reward and the affiliated Zerg base, harvested the Cnidocyte Turret and the Laser Turret, and even repelled a large wave of ice, a total of 65 crystal star beasts.

Recalling the experience of the past two days, Duan Ming felt incredible.

Interstellar creature: Large Fire Rock Beast.

Current level: Level 3.

Experience value: 1652 points/2000 points.

Body length: 326m.

Skills: Absolute obedience, building link.

Trust value: 87/100.

Talents: Swallowing rocks, directional evolution, increased movement speed.

Looking at the Fire Rock Beast that was about to upgrade, Duan Ming thought in his heart, "The Fire Rock Beast devoured about ten Ice Crystal Star Beasts. Not counting the natural experience, the experience value increased by more than 300 points. One Ice Crystal Star Beast can provide about 30 points of energy."

"It's going to evolve again in the blink of an eye. Which direction should I evolve in the future..."

Thinking in his heart, Duan Ming squatted down and gently stroked the huge hard back of the Fire Rock Beast with his hand.

"This time the Ice Crystal Star Beast attacked, relying on the laser turret to repel it, but not all the time we can be so lucky to be able to defend and repel the enemy."

"Therefore, it is particularly important to have a base that can attack and retreat..."

After all, in this vast starry sky, there are more monsters than just Ice Crystal Star Beasts.

For example, the body of a thousand or even tens of millions of feet long, which can easily smash the meteor debris blocking the road, and the violent Cuban star beast; the body as thin as a mosquito, with a pair of sharp mouths that eat everything, and the dragon-toothed star mosquito that treats the steel wall as nothing in front of it... and so on.

In front of such monster-like star beasts, a small fire rock beast is like a small boat in the sea, and a wave can destroy it completely.

Therefore, mobility is particularly important. If you can't win, you can still run away. After all, you can save the green mountains and not be afraid of running out of firewood!

Thinking in his heart, Duan Ming has made up his mind.

"The next evolutionary direction of the Fire Rock Beast will be to give priority to the development of a mobile engine-driven structural biological module."

"Well, for the mobile structure, it seems worth a try to use the energy of various light radiations in the universe to jet and move."

"The advantage of this structure is that the energy source is all free, without consuming additional resources. The disadvantage is that it lacks the speed burst in a short period of time... Well, you can build another energy storage warehouse to store this energy, and then burst it out when needed."

He had a preliminary imagination of the development of the Fire Rock Beast in his mind, but Duan Ming knew that he could not solve the problem just by thinking in his mind. This level of engineering requires the help of computer computing power.

And it just so happened that in the Earth Federation and the United States' pioneering scientific research and investigation of the Aedes mosquito experiment he received, there was a computer computing processor configured by the Earth Federation.

"There is no result for the experiment on the Aedes mosquito now, and this computing machine is idle, so it can be used to process the engine system module of the Fire Rock Beast."

Duan Ming strode towards the computing processor and finally turned it on after tinkering with it for a long time.

After inputting the surroundings of the Fire Rock Beast and the expected ideas of the target, Duan Ming clicked the "Confirm" button.

Seeing the words "Expected operation time 12 hours" displayed on the screen, Duan Ming didn't care about it anymore.

Next, just wait quietly.

...

"Ding! A meteorite belt is attacking the host at high speed!"

Duan Ming, who was resting with his eyes closed, was suddenly awakened by a warning from the system.

"Meteorite belt?" Hearing this, Duan Ming turned his head and looked at the screen.

Looking at the big words "Expected operation time 9 hours" displayed on the screen, Duan Ming frowned.

"The engine is not ready yet, do I have to rely on the slow speed of the Fire Rock Beast to dodge?" Thinking in his heart, Duan Ming asked in his heart: "System system, can the movement speed of the Fire Rock Beast avoid this wave of meteorite belt impact now?"

"No."

Listening to the cold answer of the system, Duan Ming's heart sank to the bottom of the valley.

"Are we going to give up?"

Looking at the Fire Rock Beast under his feet, Duan Ming gritted his teeth and said, "No, this Fire Rock Beast cannot be abandoned!"

Let alone the question of whether he can draw an interstellar creature after abandoning the Fire Rock Beast and waiting for him to draw lots to choose a planet again, if he wants to survive in the dense meteor belt, he has to rely on the huge body of the Fire Rock Beast to survive.

Thinking of this, Duan Ming's brain was running at high speed, thinking of a solution.

At this time, Duan Ming's eyes lit up-it was not that he thought of a solution, but that a glowing meteor belt had appeared in his field of vision!

Looking at this meteor belt emitting a soft yellow light, Duan Ming was stunned.

"This, this is actually the legendary Star Glory Ore!"

Star Glory Ore is a high-level energy ore. A fist-sized Star Glory Ore can be used as an energy source to drive a spaceship with hundreds of people.

As for the meteor belt in front of him...if it is really Star Glory Ore, its value is immeasurable!

However, the joy in Duan Ming's eyes suddenly dimmed.

There was no other reason. Even if it was the Star Glory Ore, it would be useless to him. Under the huge impact of the meteorite belt, he and the Fire Rock Beast would most likely end up with no body left. So it didn't matter whether he was killed by gold or by a clod of earth.

After all, he was dead.

At this time, Duan Ming's eyes flashed, and he gritted his teeth: "No, even if I die, I have to fight!"

"Fire Rock Beast, retreat at full speed!"

"Cnidocyte turret, laser turret, aim at the meteorite belt behind Fire Rock Beast, and start shooting with maximum firepower!!"

After giving the order, Duan Ming looked at the meteorite getting closer and closer in front of him, and clenched his fists.

Life or death, it all depends on this time!
