Gao Wu: Landing 3,000 Years Into the Future

Both of them were a little stunned. The crystal emitting a faint fluorescence made them think of four words.

"Energy crystal!"

What is energy crystal?

As the name suggests, it is a crystal condensed after highly purified energy.

The formation of this special resource requires extremely harsh conditions. Generally speaking, only in places where the non-attribute energy is extremely concentrated, after thousands or tens of thousands of years of gestation, can such crystals appear.

Even for the Zerg, which is said to be able to swallow everything and store all energy in its body, it is difficult to say how high the probability of condensing energy crystals is. It is just a little higher than that of other Star Sea races.

And this energy crystal has nothing to do with the level of life, it is completely a matter of probability.

Sometimes, high-level queen insects that have lived for hundreds or thousands of years may not condense energy crystals in their bodies, and some low-level Zerg that have only been bred for a few months may also be lucky enough to breed energy crystals.

Of course, energy crystals also have different levels, and this is directly related to the life level of the organism it nurtures.

Once energy crystals are condensed in a high-level organism, they are naturally high-level energy crystals, while if they are condensed in a low-level organism, they are low-level energy crystals.

After the excitement, the two quickly dug out the fist-sized crystal that was shining with brilliance.

After looking at it for a while, the two came to the conclusion that the energy crystal condensed in the queen's body was a valuable intermediate energy crystal.

Why is it valuable? The reason is very simple. In addition to the extremely low probability of condensation and being relatively rare, energy crystals also have another amazing function, which is to increase the success rate of the Xinhuo Flying Ship's advancement.

In the past, the courses taught by the academy have repeatedly mentioned that the initial success rate of the Xinhuo Flying Ship above the first level after starting the promotion task is only 1%.

In order to improve the success rate, in addition to the way of hunting alien creatures in alien star regions, there is also a way to invest in specific rare strengthening resources.

Although this item has a maximum success rate bonus of 10%, it is more popular with most Xinhuo captains.

Because "hunting aliens" sounds simple, but in fact it is full of dangers.

Only by hunting high-level aliens can the success rate be significantly improved. If you hunt the same or low-level aliens, you will have to start with a million to increase the success rate by 1%. Therefore, no matter what kind of hunting, it is not something that ordinary people can do, and it is even full of dangers.

Although the specific resources required for "investing in specific rare strengthening resources" are a little harder to find, and the types of resources required for each flying ship to start the promotion mission are also different, after all, they can be roughly confined to that small range. As long as you can prepare one or two in advance, you can still collect most of them within a year.

The most important thing is that this pathSafe enough, the upper limit may not be that high. Even if all resources are collected, it can only reach 11% (1% {initial} + 10%).

But even if the promotion fails in the end, the cost is only the sinking of the ship. The captain himself will not be affected too much. At most, he will lose the hope of continuing to promote with the guidance technique. Compared with the Xinhuo captain who chooses to hunt aliens and finally dies in the alien star sea with a high probability, the result is much better.

The reason why I say so much is that this energy crystal is one of the various special resources required for the promotion of the ship.

For those Xinhuo captains who have started or are about to start the promotion mission, this energy crystal is a must. Therefore, in the entire Xinhuo human civilization area, the value of energy crystals is enough to be comparable to strategic resources such as titanium crystals, not to mention the relatively rare intermediate energy crystals among energy crystals.

Compared with ordinary low-level energy crystals, intermediate energy crystals can be effective for higher-level promotion ships.

For example, to upgrade a first-level Xinhuo Flying Ship to the second level, only low-level energy crystals are needed, while to upgrade a second-level Xinhuo Flying Ship to the third level, it may need intermediate energy crystals. As for the third level and above, intermediate energy crystals are required.

"Intermediate energy crystals are worth at least a blue quality item, or even a purple one."

Song Chi said softly, holding the intermediate energy crystal.

Beside him, Shen Qing also had a fiery look in his eyes, but he soon thought of something and shook his head gently.

He had already taken the molecular repulsion energy shield, so Song Chi should have chosen this intermediate energy crystal first. In this way, this crystal basically had nothing to do with him. He knew that Song Chi's mother was trying to reach the second level recently, and Song Chi would not give up this intermediate energy crystal.

The fact was just as he thought. After just a moment's thought, Song Chi took out two items from the Sky and handed them to Shen Qing.

The pollution core and the faint light cannon.

If he wanted to take this intermediate energy crystal, then based on the fact that Shen Qing had to take the lion's share, he had to take out two of the four rare items he had previously obtained, otherwise it would be completely the other way around.

After all, the value of the intermediate energy crystal was only half a point less than the molecular repulsion energy shield.

Shen Qing did not refuse, and naturally Song Chi was not the only one who would calculate this account.

After counting everything in the second layer of space, except for the bodies of the iron beetles and the splashing beetles, and confirming that there were no other omissions, the two controlled the airship to drive towards the isolation space curtain on the first and second layers.

The first layer of the ruins space was still filled with thick poisonous fog, and there were tens of thousands of ironclad beetles scattered throughout the space. Song Chi and the others had no interest in continuing to clean up the space, and left the ruins space directly.

These ironclad beetles were not originally high-level Zerg like the Queen of Zerg. As true zero-level Zerg, even if all these tens of thousands of ironclad beetles were killed, they could only obtain 1 wisp of zero-level floating land origin, and the effort and reward were completely disproportionate.

If their ships had a large-scale lethal main gun that could eliminate tens of thousands of iron beetles within a few shots, they might not mind delaying for a while, but the problem is that there is no such thing.

……

The familiar scene of yellow sand rolling, the terrifying tornado storm was rampant in the distance, and two psionic airships shuttled across this completely desertified floating land.

When they arrived at a suitable location, the two psionic airships had no more scruples, the engines started at full speed, and they soared into the sky with a roar, and soon left the floating land and arrived in the outer starry sky.

Compared to the dangers that may be encountered at any time inside the floating land, the outer starry sky is still as dark and silent as the starry sky of most star fields in the Broken Star Sea.

The two airships, one in front and one behind, quickly rushed out of the gravitational field of the yellow sand floating land.

What the Qingfeng, which was flying ahead, didn't notice was that Song Chi found the right time and placed a special space beacon without a trace in the middle of the Cangqiong.

It was the space anchor point that had been cancelled from his bedroom.

With this space anchor point, he could choose to come to this star field again for each subsequent exploration of alien star fields and continue the unfinished exploration of the ruins of the Buluo civilization.

Of course, he would not act easily before everything was fully prepared. There was a former third-level queen insect sleeping on the second floor of the ruins, and there was no telling what was even more terrifying on the third floor.

"Xiao Chi, if it is not necessary, don't reveal the exploration of the ruins this time. After all, it involves things like purple wonders and intermediate energy crystals, which can easily arouse the greed of outsiders."

Song Chi glanced at the projection of Shen Qing on the communication screen, nodded calmly, and agreed.

He knew what Shen Qing was thinking. In addition to the above, there was another reason that drove him to keep it secret, which was to prevent Shen Wenjie from hearing about it.

The nephew had kept his uncle a secret during the exploration of the ruins. If Shen Wenjie knew about it, even if he was generous, he would inevitably have other thoughts in his mind.

While chatting, the time to return soon came. After the familiar weightlessness and dizziness, the Sky and the Blue Blade disappeared in the starry sky above the Yellow Sand Floating Land, and when they reappeared, they were already in the Xinhuo human civilization area many light years away.

Above the White Tower Floating Land, a mining fleet returning from the White Tower planetary belt was on its way at full speed.

Since the battle of the Xinhuo Fleet in the mining area more than a month ago, Tianyu Mining Company has been much stricter in the management of the mining area. Various detections are carried out in various areas of the mining area all day long. The entire mining area has been turned upside down, for fear of missing something.

This fleet was allowed to return for the first time in half a month. The miners who couldn't wait to go home to see their wives and children were naturally unwilling to delay even a little bit.

Suddenly, a strong space wave swept across the airspace 10,000 meters ahead.

Seeing this, the interstellar mining ships stopped moving forward. An old minerHe exclaimed in the local communication channel.

"Space fluctuations, this is the return of the Xinhuo warships above the psionic airships, don't worry, they are not alien creatures..."

After hearing the explanation, the commotion in the fleet soon calmed down. Although these miners are just ordinary citizens, they are still familiar with the four words Xinhuo flying ship.

On weekdays, they have heard a lot of battle stories closely related to the Xinhuo flying ship, such as "Morning Star Founding War", "Golden Lion Defense War" and "Second Morning Star Development".

The big men who drive the Xinhuo flying ship are the defenders of the entire Xinhuo human civilization, the flesh and blood shields standing at the forefront of the civilization battlefield, guarding the stability and peace of the entire Xinhuo human civilization.

All of this is passed down by word of mouth by the older generation. The trust in the Xinhuo flying ship and the Xinhuo captain is also engraved in the bones of all ordinary citizens of the Xinhuo human civilization.

Under the excited and awed gazes of the miners, two psionic airships more than 20 meters long, wrapped in the hideous armor layer, slowly emerged.

Feeling the faint blood color and the mysterious killing feeling coming from the hulls of the Sky and the Blue Blade, which were the traces left by killing thousands of Zerg, the miners held their breath and concentrated. Even though they were thousands of meters apart, the vague pressure made them almost unable to breathe.

Fortunately, the Sky and the Blue Blade did not stay for too long. They turned around and flew downwards, and soon disappeared from the civilian radars of the interstellar mining ships.

In an interstellar mining ship at the back of the fleet, a teenager who was only fifteen or sixteen years old, with a slightly immature look in his eyes, asked the man in the driver's seat beside him.

"Brother, that is the ultimate force of our Xinhuo human civilization - the Xinhuo warship, with such a strong magnetic field and such a heavy murderous aura."

"So majestic!!"

Looking at the boy's shining eyes, the man dispersed the deep envy in his eyes and turned to the boy and said:

"Yes, that is the ultimate force of our Xinhuo human civilization. It is said that a ship can suppress a floating land and dominate the starry sea. Your brother's guidance level was too low back then, and he failed to awaken the seed of Xinhuo. This is my lifelong regret."

"So, brother, you must work hard, work hard to practice guidance, become the first Xinhuo captain of our family, carry forward the family, and in the future, burn the fire of our Xinhuo human civilization to a wider starry sky and spread the power of our Xinhuo human civilization."

Staring at the direction where the Sky and Qingfeng left, the young boy's eyes were firm, and the answer he said was the same.

"Hmm!!"

...

Over Jiangyuan City, after parting with Shen Qing, Song Chi went straight to the Dongjiang Community where his family lived, wanting to return the intermediate energy crystal in his hand to his mother as soon as possible.

Although the intermediate energy crystal was a bit of a waste to upgrade the first-level Xinhuo Flying Ship to the second level, Song Chi didn't care about that. The most important thing was to ensure his mother's successful promotion. As for wasting anything, there was the treasure pot of Zhutian Market.In his hand, would he be reluctant to give up this little bit of rain?

Calculating the time, it has been more than ten months since my mother started the promotion mission. There are less than two months left before the official promotion of the flying ship. It is necessary to ensure that the promotion success rate of the Dragonfly is more than 50%.

No, 50% is not safe, it is better to be more than 70%.

Thinking, the Sky has arrived at the Dongjiang community. Song Chi jumped off the airship and took the Sky back to the Xinhuo Zuqiao.

But when he got home, he found that there was no one at home, and his parents were not there, which made him a little confused.

He clearly remembered that the release time of his parents was still buffering.

"Did they just go out?"

Before he thought about it, a note soon appeared on the dining table not far away.

"Son, your grandma's birthday is coming soon. Your father and I are going to Baita City. You should come here early too!"

Song Chi suddenly realized, but soon raised his eyebrows.

"Isn't it a few days away? Such a big event, it seems that this time it will be a big event."

After understanding the cause and effect, Song Chi didn't want to stay alone at home for long, and quickly rushed to Baita City.

As the capital city of Baita Floating Land, Baita City is located in the middle of the other four cities. Jiangyuan, Jiangyuan and other four major cities are located in each side, surrounding Baita City like a moon surrounded by stars.

In addition, Baita City also has the largest population among the five cities, and the only fourth-level Xinhuo Captain in the entire Baita Floating Land.
