Star Ocean: Starting from the Abandoned Mining Space Station

For half the day, searching only within a safe distance near the spacecraft would obviously yield no results.

After Chen Ming confirmed the plants near the spacecraft, he returned to the spacecraft early and began to prepare for the official start of the search tomorrow.

After confirming that he was not in a state of suddenly passing out, Chen Ming held a pistol in the storage compartment, selected all six modification options, and then pressed the modification button.

Some of the metal in the storage cabin melted into liquid and gathered into Chen Ming's hands.

These metallic liquids did not have the cold touch of normal metal. Instead, Chen Ming felt a warm and comfortable feeling.

This feeling did not last long, and soon the six modifications of the pistol were completed.

The modified pistol is significantly larger and its appearance has also changed significantly.

This pistol looked like an ordinary pistol before, but now it looks like a professional pistol only used by special forces.

However, although there are many items displayed on the panel for the modification of the pistol, the appearance also appears to be many.

But in fact, the overall transformation was so small that the consumption of materials was very small, mostly iron, and the consumption of Chen Ming's spirit was not large.

So Chen Ming thought about it and clicked on the panel of the protective suit.

[Lightweight vacuum environment protective clothing·modified]

[Manufacturer: Tachyon Technology Company]

[Electricity: 100%]

[Oxygen: 100%]

[Modified components: self-restoring oxygen components, radiation-proof interlayer, gas quality detector]

[Durability: 96%]

[Available operations: repair/renovation]

The company that produces protective clothing is different from the Xinda Company where Chen Ming works, but that doesn't matter.

What is important is that the suit has been modified and can still be modified.

The scene where you need to wear protective clothing after Chen Ming must be when you go out hunting.

Therefore, the protection ability of the protective clothing itself against attacks must be strengthened.

For example, add a layer of bulletproof sandwich to fatal parts such as the heart and neck.

It doesn't need to be very thick, it just needs to be able to prevent the surprise attack of some small beasts.

If he is inadvertently approached by a large beast secretly, unless Chen Ming is wearing a thick space suit, the effect of the bulletproof sandwich may only prolong his pain.

Furthermore, protective clothing that is too heavy will also affect Chen Ming’s subsequent actions.

To be honest, Chen Ming felt that he could do the bulletproof sandwich modification, but since his current condition was pretty good, Chen Ming chose to directly modify it with one click.

After the metallic liquid flows, some vulnerable parts of the protective clothing corresponding to the human body are slightly thickened, and the interior is filled with bulletproof splints.

The overall weight has also increased a bit, but it is still within Chen Ming's acceptable range.

After the transformation of the protective clothing was completed, Chen Ming's consciousness became a little groggy.

So Chen Ming tidied up, returned to the living cabin, and first activated the spacecraft's automatic defense system.

Sound an alarm when attacked, and depending on the setting, you can quickly leave or fight back directly.

Chen Ming set up a plan to take off quickly when the spacecraft was attacked.

Because the previous self-destruction of Nakong Jellyfish left a deep impression on Chen Ming, he did not want to be bombed again.

Chen Ming then pressed the option to modify the machine gun and fell into a coma.

The first night on the planet passed peacefully.

At dawn the next day, Chen Ming woke up very early.

After putting on the modified protective clothing, he picked up the terminal and the advanced plant analyzer, two pieces of equipment he would need later, as well as the most important pistol.

Although Chen Ming was quite confident in his future exploration, to be on the safe side, he still planned to wander around first and become familiar with the general environment before venturing out.

At the same time, you can also build a temporary survival base with the spacecraft as the center.

Of course, you can live directly on the spaceship, but Chen Ming feels that some simple defense facilities must be installed around the spaceship.

Let the spacecraft be your last line of defense, not the first or only one.

In this way, you will have room to pull out when you encounter danger.

In addition, Chen Ming even had the idea of ​​opening up several pieces of wasteland nearby for planting.

But let’s not rush this matter for the time being. The seeds haven’t been planted yet, so things have to be done slowly and step by step.

And today Chen Ming’s plan.

It is the function of automatically recording the surrounding terrain by taking photos through the terminal, determining the precise terrain around the landing point of the spacecraft, and obtaining a detailed map to facilitate subsequent work.

In fact, this was something that Chen Ming should have done on his first day before the spacecraft landed.

But when the spacecraft just approached the surface, the attack of the crazy group of sky jellyfish disrupted Chen Ming's rhythm, so that he forgot about it.

And if the spacecraft takes off again to confirm the terrain, the surrounding animals will definitely be frightened again, and the possibility of hunting and harvesting will definitely be greatly reduced.

So Chen Ming simply decided to go out and confirm the terrain by himself.

Anyway, I already need to go out to look for suitable plants and animals that may appear nearby, so it won't be a waste of time to check the surrounding terrain along the way.

There is no problem if you do three things together.

The only thing I have to say is how to arrange this route.

When it comes to finding crops to grow, it's certainly better to head into the woods.

If you want to find hunting targets, then the river is definitely more suitable. There is no animal that does not need to drink water.

And if he wanted to confirm the surrounding terrain, then high places were where Chen Ming had to go.

To be honest, these three places to go are somewhat conflicting.

But the terrain nearby is perfect.

The south side of the hill where Chen Ming is now is a slope with no trees growing, and there is a relatively higher hill to the north.

The vegetation on the hill is relatively denser than that near the spacecraft, and further north, there is a very dense forest.

And there happens to be a river to the west of the two hills.

Go north and then west, this way, you can meet all your needs.

Ten minutes later, Chen Ming climbed from the hill where the spacecraft was to the foot of the hill to the north.

Chen Ming took several photos of the surrounding environment on the way, and then they were automatically converted into flat topographic maps in the terminal.

This function does not seem to come with the terminal. Perhaps the maintenance engineer Chen Ming had considered that one day he would end up on the planet when he came to work here.

Strange thoughts flashed through Chen Ming's mind, but he didn't pay much attention.

Continue along the easy-to-walk gentle slope on the south side of the hill and reach the top of the hill.

Chen Ming heard a rustling sound in the nearby trees, like some kind of small animal, but Chen Ming didn't see anything.

Chen Ming ignored it for the time being, but found a thick and curved tree and climbed up with some effort.

The body leaned out from the canopy of purple leaves that were also slightly curved.
