CHAPTER 79
Sheyan could only shrug in the face of the liquid metal life-form's shameless act of taking things without asking for permission. He took the opportunity to steal a glance at the Buffalo Criminal Boss and found that it was still munching on Kurut ore, oblivious to what was happening here. Or rather, it didn't seem to care.
The liquid metal life-form did not waste too much time on the clingstones. It cleverly peeled the teardrops out of the clingstones and stuck them on its body. After that, it returned to Sheyan's personal space. Next, he slowly wrapped the teardrop stones one by one and digested them, just like a child sucking on candy.
After the Buffalo Criminal Boss ate about half a kilogram of Kurut ore, the intact hematoma on its shoulder shone with a black light. Suddenly, a huge rock in front of it moved away with a loud rumble. Then, it led the way in front of them. The road first wound up and then down, as if they were on a roller coaster.
At this time, the sky was already starting to brighten. They could vaguely see that the valley was filled with fog. Their clothes were wet, and the plants growing there were all twisted and strange. They were also filled with all kinds of strange electromagnetic waves. Their ears were ringing when they walked here. Obviously, it was extremely difficult to investigate this place with an aircraft in the air.
After advancing for about two or three kilometers, the Buffalo Criminal Boss hugged an inconspicuous rock in front of it and pushed it away with great effort. A narrow passage appeared in front of the Buffalo Criminal Boss, but the passage got wider and wider as it went on. After about a hundred meters, it was as wide as a hall.
The surrounding stalagmites glowed faintly, allowing them to see the details of their surroundings clearly. There were also two or three pregnant Buffalo Criminal women sitting there in a daze. When they saw Party Ace, they jumped up and roared, but the Buffalo Criminal Leader suppressed them with a roar.
The contestants sucked in a breath of chilled air, because they could clearly see that the rocks before them had formed into two distinct regions! In front of the Buffalo Criminal Boss' big feet was a large vein of high-purity Pi element, shining with a faint silver-grey light!
These precious metals, whose value could only be measured by planets, were casually laid out on the ground. What was even more astonishing was that the faint silver-grey radiance extended to the rear along with their line of sight, giving off an illusion that it was limitless!!
Sheyan took a deep breath and pulled Cyborg No. 1 over. Then, he aimed at Cyborg No. 1's pupils and roared loudly, "Cyborg No. 1!
"Do you see it? Do you see it???? This is just one vein, one of thousands of Pi ore veins on this damn rich planet! Our mission is a success! We've exceeded our quota!!! Bastards! " “
***
In the Kitty Hawk Forward Base 2.7 million kilometers away, the
Looking at the large screen showing the seemingly endless open-pit vein of high-purity Pi element that was shining with a silver-grey light and spreading into the darkness, Major General Mungo suddenly covered his face with his hands and burst into tears. Unbridled tears flowed out from between his fingers. He spread his hands and shouted at the ceiling at the top of his lungs, "I did it!
"I did it. I succeeded. I won the bet!!!"
Then, Major General Mungo grabbed the stunned secretary next to him, rudely ripped off his pants, and pounced on him! Mungo had to find a way to vent the feeling he had been suppressing for too long. Otherwise, he could not guarantee that he would not have a cerebral hemorrhage due to the excitement.
In the next minute, the video of the endless high-purity Pi element vein in the darkness was hastily edited, then it began to spread throughout the Empire at the speed of a plague! Of course, the first to be infected by the "plague" was Prince Pombaru, followed by the General of the Empire who had already given up.
There might still be people who questioned the authenticity of the video, but the scene of Party Ace and the others frantically refining Pi element soon silenced any doubters! If all of this was fake, then the cost would be too high.
Party Ace knew very well that if the Empire did not give up on them, they would have to bring enough high-purity Pi element with them, so much so that once they lost the Pi element, the higher-ups would feel as if a large chunk of their flesh had been cut off!
A large number of ores were crushed and poured into the refiner. After a series of processing, Pi element with the characteristic of mercury slowly flowed out of the refiner and slowly solidified into trapezoidal strips like gold bars. Finally, the greedy contestants pocketed them.
All this fell into the eyes of the people of the Empire. There was an indescribable greed in their eyes. This was a terrifying amount of wealth that could buy an entire planet! The Buffalo Criminal Boss, on the other hand, only sneered when it saw all this. It had already explored the depths of the sacred mineral vein. It had an indescribable length. How much Pi element could these guys steal even if they spent so much effort digging here?
They were sweating profusely, but they couldn't even scrape a centimeter off the surface of the entire vein. If they were to dig for a month, they would only be able to create a few holes at most. This kind of loss was really nothing to be concerned about.
The Buffalo Criminal Boss naturally hated these guys, but it was actually a little afraid of starting a conflict here. It could feel that although this sacred mineral vein seemed to be full of vitality, it also contained a terrifying destructive force. It only lacked a way to trigger it. If it leaked even a little bit, it would be enough to crush them to pieces. If they were to fall out with these people here and trigger this destructive force, the loss would outweigh the gain.
After seven hours of refining, Party Ace finally found that their Realms were full of purified Pi elemental strips. They could barely fit anything else into their Realms.
Aldaris sighed regretfully. He clenched his teeth and threw out at least 30 more Pi elemental ingots, letting them fall to the ground. Wealth was important, but to be honest, it would be suicidal to fill one's personal space with Pi elemental ingots. He had to make some space for necessary supplies and spellcasting materials.
Party Ace suddenly felt a heat in his chest. He found that the liquid metal life-form had finished devouring the astonishing amount of Lacrimal Stones. It had now curled up into a coconut-sized silver-white ball and retreated into his Personal Space. It seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep. At the same time, a series of notifications popped up on his retina.
[Silver Mission Series Hidden Branch, Chapter 2: Injection completed ….]
[The liquid metal life-form has devoured 58 Lacrimal Stones and absorbed a variety of strange metal components, which are of great help to its growth. The liquid metal life-form has reached a saturated state.]
[Hint: Your liquid metal life-form has obtained enough nutrients to grow. Mission completion rate has been raised to LVL max. The liquid metal life-form will fall into a deep sleep. Please wait patiently for it to develop and grow.]
[Hint: Because the liquid metal life-form has been fed a sufficient number of Lacrimal Stones, the branch ability obtained by the liquid metal life-form has continued to be strengthened, and its affinity with you has increased to a second critical point. You will continue to receive additional buffs.]
[Suck: Whenever an enemy (including a weapon) comes into contact with an armour or weapon attached to the liquid metal life-form, the liquid metal life-form will analyse or remember the enemy. After seven times, the liquid metal life-form will calculate the enemy's attack trajectory and nullify the enemy's next attack.]
[Mimicry Strengthening: Armour or weapons attached to the liquid metal life-form will have an additional + 6 strengthening effect by default. If the Mimicry Strengthening triggers a strengthening threshold (4, 7, 10, 13), you will be able to obtain an additional bonus attribute draw. However, the interval between each additional bonus attribute draw will not be less than one month.]

[Silver Mission Series Hidden Branch, Chapter 3: Devour Activated]
[Mission Requirement: After your liquid metal life-form wakes up, let it devour 100 pieces of equipment.]
[Mission Description: The liquid metal life-form is still quite unfamiliar with devouring other metals, so it must be strengthened into an instinct. Therefore, devouring enough equipment to make it proficient is a necessary step.
[Mission Hint: The 100 pieces of equipment have no restrictions on quality and type. The only requirement is that their durability must be max without any wear and tear. However, it is not ruled out that devouring high-quality equipment may increase the mission completion rate.]
***
When he first saw the requirement to devour 100 pieces of equipment, Sheyan almost coughed up blood. When he saw that the 100 pieces of equipment had no restrictions on quality and type, he finally felt a little better. However, this would still put a huge burden on his finances.
But when he saw the attribute 'Mimicry Strengthening', Sheyan could not help but feel like he had struck a jackpot!!
An additional + 6 strengthening effect!! Although the difficulty of space strengthening was extremely high, and the failure rate was often astonishingly high after strengthening to + 2, it was definitely not too difficult to strengthen to + 4. With the addition of the + 6 boost from 'Mimicry Strengthening', it was equivalent to directly enjoying the + 10 special effect!
The absurdity of a + 7 weapon could be seen from '+ 7 West'.
If the liquid metal life-form was not still asleep, Sheyan would have immediately summoned it and attached it to '+ 7 West' to enjoy the terrifying special effect of a + 13 weapon! Sheyan had only seen a + 9 weapon at an auction. He had never seen a + 13 weapon before.
"It's just that …" Sheyan pondered for a moment before a smile suddenly appeared on his face. "I think I can wake it up first, attach it to '+ 7 West', and then continue sleeping." If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
