Chapter 121 Facing the Abyss

Facing the strange state of the weapons Confession and Ambition, Fang Senyan was also confused. He waited for a long time, but there was no major reaction. Even the knowledgeable Miner was at a loss. He estimated that he would have to wait for a while, so he put them away first. In any case, these two guns were destined to be meat in Fang Senyan's mouth, and there was no way a cooked duck could fly away.

Next, that pair of energy batteries really appeared in the unauctioned items. The guy who wanted to raise the price reaped the consequences. At this time, he was trapped in his own cocoon. If he had let Fang Senyan bid, he could have earned at least 10,000 more Universal Points, but being able to sell it at this time was an unexpected gain.

After the auction ended, Fang Senyan should have returned to his Nightmare Space, and then gone straight home to rest. He had been scheming with people at the auction, and at this time, he was even more exhausted. His eyelids were already fighting fiercely, but he was still trying to stay awake.

Because he discovered that the Miner's database seemed to be able to query a lot of confidential information. Although, judging from the conditions for obtaining Ambition, this confidential information still deviated from the actual situation, it was still quite useful in itself.

At this time, Fang Senyan had already received an additional promotion mission for the Empire's National Day celebration. This mission was the most popular type of non-conventional mission. Unlike the time flow experienced by Reef and the others, it did not delay the normal time to enter the Nightmare World for adventure.

Fang Senyan also had a bold idea at this time. He wanted to see if he could seize the opportunity to complete the subsequent mission: Silver Series Mission Hidden Branch Sub-chapter: Injection, at the same time. This could further prevent Fang Senyan from being forcibly separated from his team and teleported to a designated world to inject the necessary energy for the liquid metal to enhance life when experiencing the next world.

After hearing Fang Senyan's request, the Miner began to query the data. After a while, he said with some embarrassment:

"Your first mission involves military ranks, and the security level has been raised to yellow. The level of the second mission has reached red because it may involve the appearance of artifacts. I can only query by circumventing the system..."

Fang Senyan understood the hidden meaning and immediately said:

"If there are any fees, then just tell me."

The Miner shrugged and said:

"Red and yellow security level information... To access it, you need at least a general-level military rank, so circumventing the system is not cheap."

Fang Senyan smiled and said:

"We have a saying in my hometown: 'You get what you pay for.' I'm not afraid of expensive, I'm just afraid the information is inaccurate."

The Miner said straightforwardly:

"As for the accuracy of the information, you can rest assured... 120,000, 100,000 is what I use to pay for circumventing the system, and 20,000 is my risk fund for circumventing the system."

Fang Senyan transferred 120,000 very readily. Soon, the Miner provided a series of information:

"Additional promotion missions are often used on people who have made outstanding contributions. For example, ranking first in honor points on higher battlefields, killing some of the ringleaders who have entered the red wanted list, etc. Your luck is really good. You caught up with the Empire's celebration and got this opportunity. According to analysis, the most likely mission is to go and suppress rebellious natives, followed by drawing and collecting unexplored map information, and finally, it may be to go and rescue people."

"The injection energy for liquid metal enhanced life requires going to specific world regions to collect some special ores with very poor metal content and letting it devour them. This kind of ore is also known as spotted crystals. Hmm, why is the metal content in spotted crystals required to be very poor?"

"That's because the liquid metal enhanced life's ability to devour is still very weak at the beginning and needs to be cultivated slowly. Feeding it with high-content metal ore from the beginning is like feeding a baby fatty meat directly, which is completely harmful and not beneficial. Moreover, the non-metallic components of spotted crystals are also of great help to the division and growth of metal cells."

"So, according to your requirements, these two missions can theoretically be completed together. When choosing a mission, you need to choose target planets that are as wild and primitive as possible."

"Because spotted crystals can essentially be regarded as a kind of metal life, and they are quite, quite, quite sensitive to pollution. The more developed the area, the less likely they are to exist. To put it bluntly, the exhaust gas emitted when a spaceship lands is enough to make nearly a thousand square kilometers of spotted crystals wither and dry up."

Fang Senyan recorded this information, but he was a little stunned when he heard it:

"When I go to that world, don't I directly descend through the teleportation gate?"

The Miner glanced at Fang Senyan deeply and said:

"You are now a regular lieutenant colonel, and you are also qualified to access some higher secrets." (This involves a lot of background information. I have also posted it on the Internet before, but I estimate that many readers don't know about it, so I specifically mention it again. There is no need to post a VIP chapter, so it is posted in the public version of the book for free viewing, please check the public version

Background)

After listening to the Miner's introduction, even with Fang Senyan's intelligence, he was stunned and said:

"So, the additional promotion mission I have now? Is it part of the planet colonization plan? And what I am going to is no longer those parallel worlds destroyed by spacetime turbulence, but real planets that exist in the future universe?"

The Miner nodded and said:

"That's right."

Fang Senyan stiffened for a moment and couldn't help but say:

"This is really beyond my imagination."

The Miner smiled and said:

"You don't need to be too nervous, because before sending you out on a mission, you will definitely be given a series of training to make you adapt to the environment as much as possible and avoid running there to die in vain. Not to mention lieutenant colonels, every contractor who has grown to major is a treasure."

Fang Senyan nodded and said:

"I understand."

At this time, the auction had already ended, and the surrounding virtual reality had begun to gradually lack energy support, becoming blurred and fluctuating. Fang Senyan looked at the Miner and said:

"Is there any other information you can provide me?"

The Miner thought for a while and smiled:

"Unlike you, most of our workplaces are on alien planets, and there are only a few opportunities to go to parallel worlds, so I just want to tell you that perhaps in the chaotic adventure world of parallel universes, it is a good idea to be distracted to find an extra opportunity. But on those underdeveloped planets, concentrating on doing your own thing is the way to survive. Distraction is undoubtedly asking for trouble."

After speaking, the Miner disappeared in front of Fang Senyan. Fang Senyan also returned to his Nightmare Space. He leaned back on the recliner, pressed his temple with his index finger, felt it throbbing, and besides that, his mind was also a mess, and there seemed to be no room for thinking at all.

He also walked out of the Nightmare World in a daze, and then returned to the real world.

After Fang Senyan walked out of the stairs, he found that although it was still after nine in the morning, the subtropical sunlight was pouring down fiercely, very simply pouring the heat onto his skin. Perhaps such ultraviolet rays were a bit strong for people who came to vacation or work, but for Fang Senyan, who needed to relax, he quite enjoyed the warm heat.

He walked in a daze to a coconut grove, asked for a local hammock for rent, a fresh coconut, and then comfortably lay down on it.

An indescribable comfort immediately spread throughout his body.

The sparse coconut tree branches and leaves filtered out part of the sunlight and shone on his body. It was warm and quite pleasant. Fang Senyan sipped the sweet liquid of the coconut, and just lay down with the straw inserted into the coconut, he made a slight snore and went straight into a dream.

*

Fang Senyan was woken up by the old woman who rented the hammock.

He rubbed his sleepy eyes and got up. Although his body was still very thirsty for sleep, seeing that the distant horizon was already full of red clouds, the sun had already sunk below the sea level, and it was already past seven in the evening. If he continued to sleep in the hammock, it would definitely not be good for his body.

Fang Senyan shook his head, and the thousands of thoughts that had been swirling in his mind all came to his mind. He felt some inexplicable itching and pain in his back, so he reached out to scratch, and as a result, he felt that his back was full of deep marks from the ropes of the hammock.

And as soon as Fang Senyan turned his head, he gasped. It turned out that because he was too tired, his muscles were completely relaxed during sleep, and coupled with the fact that he sat up very quickly, his neck suddenly twisted, and a tearing pain like a cramp came out.

In fact, Fang Senyan's situation was still good. In the hospital, there were even patients who died from broken cervical vertebrae from drinking too much alcohol. That was because they were deeply comatose from being anesthetized by alcohol, and the muscles around the neck were completely relaxed. When a friend moved this drunkard, the movement was a bit big, and the head swung directly from the left to the right. As a result, the cervical vertebra fractured directly under the condition of losing muscle protection...

At this time, Fang Senyan covered his neck, gasped, and kept tapping it, then walked towards the Xiwu Wharf. Now sleep was no longer the first demand. His hungry stomach had made a solemn protest. He casually found a food stall and sat down.

The boss was quite familiar with Fang Senyan. He first gave him two freshly landed deep-sea oysters, pried them open with a knife, and sucked the juice directly. Although the taste was a bit fishy, ​​he would feel a very special taste in it once he got used to it.

Then Fang Senyan was naturally going to eat when he was hungry. Oyster omelets, Cantonese porridge, stir-fried cuttlefish, stinky tofu, etc. were ordered to the full of a table, and then the golden shrimp here was quite authentic. The shrimp head was wrapped in starch, and the shrimp tail with tender meat was retained. The front "artificial shrimp head" was crispy and delicious, while the shrimp tail was tender, smooth and plump, which was unforgettable.

Just as Fang Senyan was full and was planning to go back to continue to catch up on sleep, his Nightmare Mark suddenly heated up, prompting that there was something abnormal in the storage space. He knew that there must be some change, and he only thought that the meeting of the two weapons, Ambition and Confession, had results, but Fang Senyan was excited to check carefully, and his face suddenly became serious.
