After pondering for a while, Fang Linyan decisively chose to inlay,
"Contestant No. ZB419, you are about to use the legendary item: steel fire source fragment to enhance the B-type professional ability: War Machine Manipulator LV3."
"You are about to consume 6 potential points and 10,000 utility points."
At this time, an awkward thing happened. Fang Linyan's potential points were not enough! Fortunately, the goat and vulture next to him gave him some points, so he could continue smoothly.
"Data determining …"
"Inlaying in progress …"
"B-type professional ability: War Machine Manipulator LV3 has the characteristics of growth and high mutation."
"B-type professional ability: War Machine Manipulator LV3's quality has been sublimated!!!"
"B-type professional ability: War Machine Manipulator has been promoted to A-type rare professional ability: Dark of the Moon!"
After seeing the information of "Dark of the Moon", Fang Linyan showed a smile at the corner of his mouth, then he shared the information with the goat and vulture,
Dark of the Moon
Quality: A-type professional ability
Introduction: This is a kind of mutated professional ability that has almost never appeared because no one has tried to combine the steel fire source fragment with a similar ability to produce a completely different light.
Those who possess this ability will get a powerful metal life with their own life to pledge loyalty to them, and use their powerful combat power to destroy their enemies.
The higher the level of this ability, the more obvious the increase in the command of the powerful metal life. The current LV1 can increase the life value of the metal you control by an additional 600 points, and any related skills have priority!
Flux particle β energy polymer production process technology (passive ability): If you want to summon a powerful metal life, you must first produce at least 10 units of flux particle β energy polymer (energy block) as a casting material. This is the foundation of performing this professional ability.
Therefore, although the owner of this skill will automatically obtain the relevant supporting knowledge of making energy blocks, the requirements in mechanical manufacturing are still very high. If there is no way to successfully use the conditions at hand to make energy blocks, then the powerful ability "Dark of the Moon" can basically be declared useless.
Database (passive ability): The relevant data of the mechanical life you have summoned will be stored. You can choose to consume additional energy blocks to summon a specific metal life.
Because Dark of the Moon is sublimated from the B-type professional ability: War Machine Manipulator, the data of the mechanical life you have summoned before has been recorded in the database.
You currently possess the following data sources of metallic life forms: Rubus, Gusil, Ao's Ember, etc …
[Activate Miniature Wormhole: Active ability. Consume 10 units of energy to randomly summon two metallic lifeforms for you to control without specifying a specific mechanical lifeform.]
These two metallic lifeforms will have the following common abilities.
1. Stand Up (Active): Both metallic lifeforms have the ability to transform into humans and obtain the camouflage effect.
2. Scout (Passive): At least one metallic lifeform will have flying and probing abilities.
3. Fire Seed Fusion, Fusion! Two Metallic Lifeforms will combine and temporarily transform into an even more powerful Metallic Lifeform for battle.
Under certain conditions, the two metallic lifeforms could even fuse with their controller, allowing them to obtain even more powerful temporary skills!
[Warning: The metallic lifeform you summon can exist until it is destroyed or leaves this world.]
However, every once in a while, these two metallic lifeforms would need to consume energy crystals.
Otherwise, if its satiety level continued to decrease, its ability would also weaken. When its satiety level fell below 20 points, the summoned metallic lifeform could leave at any time and no longer respond to the summons in the future.
***
When Fang Linyan saw this information, his first feeling was not excitement, but his heart sank!
As the saying goes, even the cleverest housewife can't cook without rice. No matter how strong the metallic lifeform was, what was the use of it if it couldn't be summoned?
Where could he get 10 units of energy crystals now?
The key was to maintain the existence of the metallic lifeform, and feed it regularly!
Although he had obtained a small energy block in the Garden of Eden, a lot of the energy in the energy block had been absorbed when he "consecrated" the steel fire source fragment hidden in the earthquake. He did not know how many units of energy were left in the energy block.
Fortunately, when they were fighting for the energy crystal, Fang Linyan was not fighting alone.
Vulture said that he almost sold his energy crystal, but because the other party was only willing to pay 10,000 utility points, he kept it in anger. After all, this thing was worth 8,000 utility points in the store.
So if Fang Linyan needed it now, he could use it at will.
In this case, Fang Linyan felt that it should not be a problem to gather 10 units of energy crystals. This was indeed the case. Fang Linyan's remaining energy crystal was evaluated as 3 units, while Vulture's energy crystal was evaluated as 8 units.
11 units of energy crystals really made Fang Linyan not confident to summon the metallic lifeform immediately. After all, according to the description, to maintain its satiety level, it would also consume energy crystals continuously.
After solving this biggest problem, "Dark of the Moon" brought Fang Linyan full of surprises.
The first thing that surprised him was the database ability.
To be honest, Fang Linyan often missed Gusil before. Unfortunately, even if his technology had improved greatly, he still couldn't create the corresponding Android Dire Wolf's heart.
The reason was that the Android Dire Wolf's heart that summoned Gusil was very difficult to replicate. That was made by Fang Linyan when he was a maintenance worker on the Coles. He embezzled a lot of materials for personal gain.
Among these materials, there were many special alloys and rare metals in the interstellar world at that time. Fang Linyan was a layman in material science, so he couldn't replicate it even if he wanted to.
There was no doubt that the database passive ability solved his big problem.
What surprised Fang Linyan the most was the fusion ability. There was no doubt that this was a powerful existence like a big move.
The fusion of 2 metallic lifeforms was already an exciting operation that people were looking forward to.
As for the metallic lifeform that directly fused with its controller, the formidable might that could be created was truly shocking.
After the three of them had a heated discussion, someone suddenly came over and informed them to go to a small meeting.
During the meeting, De Yako had already assigned a mission to their squad.
The first was to investigate.
The second was to go to a high place to set up communicators and transmission antennas and strive to meet up with the separated troops as soon as possible.
There were a total of 3 teams and 11 people carrying out the mission.
Because setting up transmission antennas was the most important task, and the field of vision near the camp was also very good during the day, Deaco asked someone to drive a multi-purpose all-terrain vehicle to escort Fang Linyan and others to the foot of the mountain suitable for setting up antennas. The vehicle just had to wait there.
Fortunately, when they set off this time, the venture capital company equipped everyone with the latest auxiliary exoskeleton equipment. This thing couldn't make soldiers become supermen like Iron Man, but it could greatly reduce the logistical pressure in the suburbs.
Simply put, the function of this beginner version of the exoskeleton was very simple. It could allow the wearer to move at a speed of 1520 kilometers per hour while carrying more than 80 kilograms of weight.
It sounded very gimmicky and full of value. In fact, in daily life, a Yadi electric car could have a similar effect … Cough cough.
However, in mountain warfare or wilderness combat, the importance of this thing was still very obvious.
The vehicle ran wildly on the endless desert, and the engine made a manic sound. The temperature difference between day and night on the surface was terrifying. Before noon, the ground temperature actually rose to almost 60 degrees. The scenery in the distance even changed under the heat wave in front of the observation window.
The most terrible thing was that the air-conditioning system of the vehicle was damaged when landing, and it was difficult to repair. Therefore, the interior of the vehicle was so hot that it made people sweat non-stop. They could only open the window for ventilation.
The dozen or so people in the vehicle endured the scorching heat and focused on their surroundings. They looked for a suitable place to set up their communicators, and at the same time, to see if there were any goods or the wreckage of their allies' transport ships that had fallen in the storm.
Seeing that Fang Linyan and the others were all drinking water, the veteran Karan next to them began to impart his experience to them:
Keep half a mouthful of water in your mouth and only swallow a little occasionally. It takes at least 10 minutes to completely swallow a mouthful of water. This way of drinking water can allow the water to be more fully absorbed into the body.
Fang Linyan and the others were happy to be taught on the surface, but they still did what they wanted. The bastard Goat even secretly washed his face and brushed his teeth. They had their own supplies in their personal space. The three of them added up to at least 50 kilograms of water. Even if the entire rescue team ran out of water, they wouldn't die of thirst …
After driving for about 30 kilometers, the communication engineer finally took a fancy to a steep vantage point.
There was a towering wind-eroded rock on the high ground. The surface of the rock was bumpy and bumpy. It was at most fifty to sixty meters in diameter. Although there were edges and corners on the rock, they were straight and unreachable. It was more than a hundred meters tall.
They all looked at each other. Even Fang Linyan and the other 2 contractors felt a little embarrassed to climb such a height. Although they had digitized bodies, they would still die if they fell from a height of hundreds of meters.
At this time, the seemingly timid Ma Xier carried the simple instrument behind him, then he took out a rope and tried to climb.
He used the stupidest method. He inserted climbing nails into the rock along the way to provide support, then he hung the climbing rope and stepped straight up with difficulty. After experiencing several seemingly thrilling risks of almost falling, Ma Xier finally set up the instrument.
At this time, through chatting with others, Fang Linyan knew that Ma Xier was usually a mountaineering enthusiast, and he did not lose his climbing equipment in this storm, so this kind of thing was not too difficult for him.
Soon, the instrument was modulated and officially started to work. The group of people raised their hands and cheered at the same time. They whistled at the same time.
Of course, they all agreed that it would be perfect if there was some iced champagne.
After coming down from the vantage point, Ma Xier sat back in the car, opened a bottle of tempting fresh water, and swallowed the precious water in big mouthfuls. When he recovered, he said,
"I seem to have seen a suspicious place up there just now. Shall we go and take a look now? I suspect it's a friendly spaceship or our lost supplies! "
The pilot, Vassily, immediately whistled and said,
"This is the second good news I heard today. Hurry up and lead the way."
Ma Xier immediately said,
"About 5 kilometers to the south, there is a rift valley there. We can leave 2 people to see if we can find water in the low-lying areas. After all, we still collected some water with the mechanism last night."
"Then go to the rift valley and head west. After 3 kilometers, you will reach the place I mentioned."
The pilot immediately stepped on the accelerator and drove quickly in that direction.
Ma Xier suddenly asked,
"Hey, Vassily, what's the best news you heard today?"
Vassily said,
"Of course it's when boss woke me up in the morning. Hey, Vassily, you bastard, get up quickly. We still have things to do. Don't you feel lucky to be woken up in this damn place? Because at least it means you're still alive. "
***
20 minutes later, the group arrived at the rift valley Ma Xier mentioned, but unfortunately, this rift valley was not deep. The deepest place was only 5 or 6 meters, so the probability of finding water would be reduced.
Two veterans volunteered to jump out of the car and went to search for water.
After that, the all-terrain vehicle continued to move forward in the desert with great difficulty. Two rows of deep tire marks were left behind behind the vehicle. Everywhere was a vast expanse of yellow sand. It was unknown when the sky had turned gloomy, but it was still dusky.
Soon, they arrived at the location mentioned by Ma Xier. There was indeed a spaceship wreckage in the yellow sand.
After some inspection, it could be seen that the crashed spaceship was a small spaceship. The pilot died on the spot when landing. Fang Linyan and the others did not find anything that could prove the identity of the pilot.
From the timer on the small spaceship, it could be seen that this spaceship also crashed in the terrifying sandstorm.
Not only that, the other party's rescue came very quickly. They removed most of the useful things in the spaceship, and even dismantled half of the broken engine. However, there was only a box of compressed biscuits with poor taste left.
This could only explain 2 very serious problems:
First, these guys did not lack food.
Second, they were not local aborigines. They were also foreign technological humans. Otherwise, they would not need the complete parts of the damaged engine.
After discovering this, everyone was whispering. Another force suddenly appeared on this strange and mysterious planet. No matter what, it was not good news, even if the other party was not here to save people.
Just like when a merchant ship encountered a stranger on the sea in the age of great navigation, as long as they felt that the other party was weak, they would turn into brutal pirates.
At this time, in the era of space colonization, when adventurers met on a strange alien planet, they often only needed a glance to fight …
Of course, only Fang Linyan and the other 2 accepted this matter very calmly. After all, this was an SS difficulty mission! It was not unusual for more accidents to happen.
After bringing the box of compressed biscuits, Fang Linyan and the others returned. When they passed through the rift valley, they also brought the 2 people who went to find water. From their frustrated expressions, it could be seen that it was a futile thing.
After returning to the camp, Ma Xier of course went to report to De Keya,
"Hey, sir, the communicator has been successfully installed, and so far, it has been operating normally for 5 hours."
After hearing this news, De Keya was of course very happy, but Ma Xier's next words made him frown,
"However, we found the wreckage of a small spaceship, and we also found something inside …"
Hearing Ma Xier's words, De Keya's expression quickly turned solemn. Obviously, this news also shocked him.
After the report, another expedition team also brought back good news. They found a place that was likely to have a water source, and the terrain there was much more dangerous. It was more suitable to move the camp there.
This news immediately surprised everyone. This day was also quite tiring. After eating some barbecue, Fang Linyan half-closed his eyes and got into the sleeping bag to sleep. The night was still very cold, but it was still calm. No predators came to make trouble.
After dawn the next day, the sandstorm blew around the camp again. The dust that spread in the atmosphere made it impossible to see more than 10 meters in front of them. They couldn't even open their eyes at all. The storm lasted for a whole morning. Fang Linyan and others could only continue to wait in the camp.
At noon, the sandstorm gradually subsided. De Keya was a little worried about whether the communicator would be damaged in the sandstorm, so he asked someone to drive an all-terrain vehicle to check it personally.
Ma Xier took people out to confirm the location of the water source. Probably because they got along well, Ma Xier directly called Fang Linyan and the other 2 to go together.
They spent 3 hours exploring the area that might have water, but unfortunately, they didn't find much.
The expedition team could only walk back dejectedly. However, when they came to a gully 2 kilometers away from the camp, Ma Xier quickly walked up and looked at this deep gully.
This deep gully looked like a tragic scar on the vast yellow earth. It was very spectacular.
Ma Xier pondered for a while, then said,
"I think there may be water below."
Tucker, who followed them, was also a little tired at this moment. He couldn't help frowning,
"Hey, brother, I've been here to inspect this place since yesterday. Other than dust, there's more dust. Of course, there's also those damned weathered rocks. Their only use is to break your legs or neck when you go up or down."
Ma Xier turned and glanced at the thick-lipped black man, Tucker, and shrugged,
"Hey, I'm not saying that you are slacking, but I have an intuition that there is water below."
Tucker was also stubborn, so he said directly,
"But I don't believe you. I won't take the risk of breaking my leg again, absolutely not! Because getting injured in this damn place is likely to mean death. "
Ma Xier didn't want to argue with people, so he shrugged and said,
"It's up to you, but I will tell De Keya about this when we go back."
Tucker was a little scared. De Keya was not a person who was easy to talk to, and his prestige was also very high. If De Keya complained, Tucker would not have a good ending. He would be hit by the butt of a gun and have his money deducted.
Fortunately, Tucker's skin was dark enough, so no one could see the change in his expression. Although he didn't dare to resist directly, he could still squat to the side and not speak. Obviously, he realized that he couldn't resist directly, so he used soft tactics.
At this time, Ma Xier glanced at Fang Linyan, obviously seeking support.
Fang Linyan felt that Ma Xier was a good person, so he said,
"I also think there may be water below."
