star hunter

Xilin used a folding knife to pick at the contents of the fish's belly. The big fish was completely dead and its body had begun to change.

Um?

Xilin's hand paused, and a black shadow shot out from the fish's belly. Xilin's hand that was not holding the knife caught it like lightning.

It was a long finger-shaped thing. The body was dark green, almost black at first glance. The head opened a big mouth and made a sharp scream, which hurt people's ears. Quite a few.

Everyone who was busy turned their attention to Xilin's hands.

"Wow, what is this? It smells good!" The gray cat was originally planning to run to the side to sleep, but after discovering this thing, he ran back.

"If you want to eat, you can find it yourself. There's still some inside," Xilin said.

The gray cat sniffed the smell of this insect-like thing, and didn't mind it being dirty, so it went straight into the fish's belly to look for food.

"What is this?" Xiaoton came over and asked.

"It should be a parasite. I have seen some people find parasites in deep-sea fish before. Although this big fish is not in the sea, the conditions are almost the same. I heard that the fish lives in the deep.

The parasites in the human body are very powerful." Xilin observed the struggling parasite in his hand and placed a stone next to its mouth.

puff--

A gap was chewed out of the stone.

Everyone who saw it took a deep breath. Such a powerful thing was still a parasite. If it was parasitic in the human body, wouldn't it be dead? No matter how hard the bone is, it can't chew it.

After Xilin cut off its head with a knife, the thing still struggled for a while before stopping, which shows its tenacity.

Xilin took a knife and dug inside the fish's belly again. Most of the parasites inside were eaten by the gray cat. This guy was quite fast.

"Hey, wait, leave some of that thing for me." Xilin hit the gray cat on the head with a folding knife and said.

The gray cat, who was about to bite it, spit out what was in his mouth when he heard this: "This stuff tastes pretty good."

"Of course, these are all things that absorb the essence of the host." Xilin put small balls the size of mung beans in special bottles. These balls are the eggs of the parasite just now.

The gray cat was turbulent in the belly of the fish and was covered in the green blood of the big fish. Xilin kicked it into the river and took a bath. After it was clean, it was allowed to go ashore.

After arranging things here, Xiaoton took Xilin and Gray Cat to the next team location. It was a land of ice and snow, and it was also the coldest place on the planet. The area covered with ice and snow was also very large.

wide.

The gray cat found two kinds of ore there, one was transparent and the other was white.

Transparent ice ore is a special kind of ore, not an energy ore. It cannot provide energy. However, this kind of ore is very dense and it is almost entirely composed of water molecules. It is a high-density compressed hydrated crystal. If

Turn it into a liquid state and its volume will expand fifty to one hundred times. If you place it in an ultra-low temperature environment, it will absorb the ice in the environment, integrate and slowly "expand". It can be said that it is a

This crystal is an excellent water storage stone. It is indeed very useful for fleets traveling long distances.

The other kind of white ore is indeed an energy ore. It can stimulate a cold light source, and objects illuminated by this cold light beam will be instantly frozen.

Before this, there were only cold beam guns and airborne cold beam cannons, but there were no more lethal cold beam weapons suitable for installation on starships. However, this white ore can achieve that effect. The technical team is preparing to use this

Plant ore to develop new cryogenic weapons.

Except for this place, the ore energy in the places where the other teams were located was almost the same as before, so the gray cat didn't even bother to lick it at the end, it was already tired of it.

Now that they know the location of the ore, everyone is very excited. However, Xilin did not participate in the mining and went back to the starship to sleep for two days. The absorbed energy had a great impact on the chip in the body. While the gene level evolved,

Xilin also needs to control these changes and take the initiative. He cannot let these changes happen arbitrarily, otherwise he may not even know he will become a monster by then.

Xiao Dun has already reported the matter of this planet to the home team, and the home team immediately sent people to go to the planet marked on the star chart given by Xiao Dun. What the sixth team has to do now is to mine while waiting, and wait for the home team's people to arrive

Hand over a planet to them, and then take the next step. The task of planning the Z sector has not yet been completed. Although these energy ores are enough for them to increase their influence in the vanguard, they must continue to do what needs to be done.

It has to be said that Shao Dun made the right choice when he chose the route. Until now, except for encountering some similar species at the outskirts of the Z-sector, they have not encountered a group of hunters for a long time as they go deeper.

There is currently no expedition team like theirs that has come around this planet.

The Z-sector is very large. No one can tell what we will encounter in the future, how many sacrifices we will make, and how much we will gain. But no matter what, once we have chosen, we must go on.

Taking advantage of this period, the logistics team members took the time to replenish food. Only with energy and food supplies can the subsequent voyage be smoother.

Some technicians have speculated a conclusion based on some parameter changes: Due to the effect of the energy field, there is a limit to the mining rate of energy minerals. There is a critical point in mining, which is their balance point. If this balance point is destroyed, the planet will

If chaos occurs, people will not be able to stay on this planet for long. In serious cases, the planet's habitability will drop from level B to level C, or even lower.

After sleeping for two days, Xilin returned to the planet.

"Hey, Cary, where's that guy Xilin?" Bifur asked. The man who had been sleeping for two days was missing.

"That guy has become obsessed with parasites recently, so he and Enji went to look for parasites." Thinking of those disgusting bugs, Kari couldn't help but shudder.

At this moment, Xilin was watching Enji dissect a crab. This crab was accidentally encountered by the green river. It was nearly five meters long and covered with thick green hair. The gray cat was breaking the crab aside.

The crab's huge claws chewed it with joy.

Enji picked out a worm from the crab's lungs.

"Oh, I didn't expect it." Enji pinched out a bug with a smile.

"I have only seen parasites in common crabs, not this kind, but it should be about the same. I can study it when I have time. The infection rate and degree of infection of this kind of parasite are very high. They live in the lungs

Inside, it irritates and destroys the host's lung tissue, causing coughing, hemoptysis, and some even invades the brain and causes paralysis."

The ones Enji mentioned were just ordinary ones, but the kind of parasites he is carrying now are probably much more terrifying.

"We generally do not bring parasites to starships easily. The risk factor is too high. Once it is not controlled, everyone on the starship may die. Never underestimate such a small thing."

Just as he was talking, Xilin and Enji's communicators rang.

Xilin turned on the communicator, and Kari's big face appeared on it: "Xilin, someone from the home team is here!"
