Alien Relic Hunter

"It's indeed strange... but this record is compiled by the official, there shouldn't be any omissions? Forget it, let's take a look at the next record first." Hound frowned and clicked on another document.

This record contains more text, but as for the photos, there are only a few.

"Biological tissue was found two hundred and seventy meters away. There is no sign of life. It is initially judged to be some type of unknown indigenous biological organ." The picture accompanying this text is a piece of meat frozen in ice that looks like a human liver. The block as a whole showed a strange dark purple color, and the surface was covered with a layer of light gray fascia. Under the fascia was a network of shriveled blood vessels evenly distributed.

For fear of causing irreversible damage to the specimen, the hunters did not cut the ice cubes, but sent them directly to the research institute. As for the subsequent research, this record did not mention it.

"Ivan, what do you think this thing looks like?" The hound raised his head and looked at Ivan - if we exclude the fragments of information left by the Alpha civilization in Ke Lan's memory, the level of biology among the entire team The tallest person is Ivan. In terms of reading volume of relevant materials, even Ke Lan is slightly behind.

"The shape is a bit like a human liver. In my impression, there should be no indigenous creatures with such an organ, but I cannot rule out that this thing may be a teratoma... If it is a teratoma, then it may be present in any creature. If something like this grows, it would be difficult for me to make a judgment just by observing it with the naked eye." Ivan shook his head with regret.

"Where's Ke Lan? Do you have an 'impression' of this thing?" The "impression" in the hound's mouth naturally refers to the fragments of information implanted in Ke Lan's brain, but when Ke Lan focused his attention on this When I took the photo, nothing popped up.

"No." He also shook his head and said.

In addition to this piece of meat that looks like a liver, the second mission record also found a large number of underground building debris sealed in the ice and a large-scale but unknown giant mechanical device. However, as the closer to the bottom of the sinkhole, The lower the temperature, the hunter team did not go any further after exploring to 440 meters, and chose to return.

"To be honest, there is no useful information in this record." Hound curled his lips and closed the file, "I've already read two-thirds of the content... but I didn't even see a casualty report. I always find these records very strange."

Not only the hounds, but Ke Lan also found it strange... The strange thing was not that there was little content in the records, but that these exploration records did not include the most important thing in the ruins that needed to be recorded - the number of casualties. , cause of death and injury reports, risk assessments, analysis of traps and mechanisms, information about the ruins guards, combat process reports... These are the things that hunters want to know most when buying information - when exploring the ruins. At this time, saving one's own life is the first thing that every hunter needs to consider. Otherwise, even if the backpack is filled with priceless trophies and cannot take them out of the ruins alive, then everything will be in vain.

Just as Ke Lan and the others expected, the last exploration record contained some insignificant content, which even gave them the illusion that these reports were written by completely amateur journalists—— Even if a rookie hunter who had just passed the entrance examination was asked to write this report, it would not be written like this!

"That's it? Just this pile of rubbish, is it worth 10,000 credit points?" Layton couldn't stand it anymore. "I'm going to file a complaint. Isn't this a fucking obvious way to defraud consumers?!"

"Complaint? Who are you complaining to?" Hound glanced at him, his cold tone mixed with a hint of disappointment, "This thing is collected and compiled by the official. You file a complaint and wait for them to ask you, 'Who is suing me? '? Save your energy... at least there are more than 1,400 guys who have been tricked like us."

Leighton was suddenly speechless. After holding it in for a long time, he could only spit out two dirty words: "Fuck."

"Wait a minute, I'll ask a friend of mine to see if he has detailed information." Ke Lan said, took out his mobile phone, opened the browser, and logged into the hunter section of the Ark Forum.

I glanced at my friends list and found that the information dealer "ACMS_0420" happened to be online at this time, and his most recent active record was... Well, this guy seemed to be fighting with a group of Luquanists in another section. In just a few seconds Within a few minutes, I had browsed more than 200 floors without even using a single dirty word that blocked sensitive words...

No matter how amazing the hand speed is, it is impossible to achieve such efficiency. Ke Lan guessed that this guy probably installed some kind of fully automatic sparring plug-in. One account can sparring with a group of people with ease. In the eyes of onlookers, he looks like a natural. Like a god of war.

"Are you there?"

"Here? The kitchen just asked your mother how mature it is, whether to use a hot air fryer or a traditional oven."

"A thousand-mile horse always comes, but your horse doesn't always come."

"When your horse was pregnant with you, did you only have the placenta and no fetus in your belly?"

…

In an instant, dozens of foul-mouthed replies swiped Ke Lan's screen several times...

"Sorry, sorry... I just had a fight with a group of blades. I forgot to turn off the plug-in. I just clicked on the reply box and these things were automatically sent to me..." "AMCS_0420" explained.

"It's okay, I don't mind..." What else could Ke Lan say? He couldn't just send a sweaty soybean emoticon.

"Uh, let's talk about business?"

"Do you have any information on the 'Bottomless Sink' at the S-018 ruins? The more detailed the better." Ke Lan asked straight to the point.

"Oh, you ignored me back then, but you can't reach me now..."

"...Forgot to turn off the plug-in again?"

"Ah, no, I'm still in the weird mode I was in when I was squirting with someone, and I haven't switched over for a while. Please let me slow down a little."

Half a minute later.

"Are you feeling better?"

"Okay, okay...Actually, I'm just curious. Didn't you say you were not interested in this ruins at the beginning? Why are you planning to attack it now?"

"Why don't I make money if I can?"

"That's right... After all, this is the first time that an S-class ruin like this has appeared. In three explorations, only two people died in total, and they were all man-made accidents caused by equipment problems - less than 1 person in total. % average casualty rate, and a revenue figure of more than 100 million at a time would be tempting to any hunter."

"Only two people died?" Ke Lan asked. This number was not announced in the official information. Although he knew that the casualty rate should not be very high, it was still a little lower than imagined.

"Yes, one was frozen to death at a depth of 360 meters due to the rupture of the inner liner of the power armor and the malfunction of the communication device. The other was caused by an accidental operating error caused by the long-term fatigue operation and the suspension of steel. The cable lost its balance and hit the wall of the pit... To be honest, I have never seen a safer ruin than this one, and it is a fucking S-class ruin."

[P.S. Today I found time to finish the single-player plot of Titanfall 2. As a senior plastic guy, my mecha soul suddenly started to burn again. I did a survey and asked the readers if they like mechas. If you like it a lot, you should add more equipment in this area in the later chapters and let them play an important role in the plot. 】
