Chapter 120 The Pursuit

Bai Ye couldn't help but scratch his head.

Based on Bai Ye's experiences in his previous life, he wouldn't dare claim to have gotten all the first kills in every world, but at least it was more or less the case.

As for the Particle Energy Civilization world, Bai Ye truly knew nothing about it. At least, Bai Ye was certain that he hadn't killed any of the chosen ones in this world in his past life, nor had he obtained the first kill of a chosen one in this world.

"Particle energy, doesn't that sound like a branch of a technological world?" Bai Ye murmured, then shook his head. "Forget it, why bother with so much!"

What kind of world it was didn't matter; what mattered was...

Biological Scanning and Computing System (Item) (Green) (Upgradeable): Can scan biological targets within a 15-meter range and obtain the basic information of the creature. Effects: Biochemical Toxin Resistance (can resist some biochemical toxin invasion) Infrared Targeting (targets with infrared to assist in attacks).

A chest plate, or more accurately, a piece of metal that fit snugly against the chest. From the surface, it looked unremarkable.

However, there was also a metal mask.

Inside the mask, one could see many circuit-like components embedded directly within, very smooth, with only occasional flashes of light flowing along the circuits.

Bai Ye placed the metal plate on his chest. The metal plate automatically adhered to his body. As for the mask, it had the same function. When Bai Ye brought it to his face, it automatically fitted onto his face. But Bai Ye knew that the mask didn't fully touch his face, leaving a very narrow gap. Otherwise, with his facial structure completely different from a Predator's, it would have been impossible for Bai Ye's face to wear it.

After putting on the bio-mask, Bai Ye glanced at the Xenomorph corpse on the side and said, "Scan!"

Biological scan commencing...

Biological scan ended...

Xenomorph (Adult) (Deceased)...

Attributes of deceased biological entities cannot be detected...

Bai Ye nodded with satisfaction. He had come to this place precisely for this.

Don't underestimate mere data; it's incredibly useful in combat, allowing one to gather basic information about the opponent to formulate combat strategies.

Furthermore, the Biological Scanning and Computing System is upgradeable. This means that with higher technology, it can be modified. Therefore, although its current quality is only Green, it has the potential to be upgraded to Blue, or even higher grades like Black, Red, and Gold.

As for the biochemical toxin resistance and infrared targeting assistance, these were purely bonus effects of the bio-mask. Bai Ye didn't care too much about them, but having them was better than nothing.

At the same time, Bai Ye discovered an unexpected surprise!

Five Shards of God Stones!

Those Predators were quite formidable. Even considering the current progress of the world battlefield, they certainly belonged to the upper echelon of strength. Moreover, the Predators possessed communication methods and had clearly grouped up after entering the world battlefield, advancing together in groups of ten or more, which naturally allowed them to improve their strength more quickly.

Therefore, it wasn't strange for warriors to possess Shards of God Stones.

However, obtaining five Shards of God Stones at once was an absolute stroke of luck!

Regarding kills that yield Shards of God Stones, it's generally determined by the maximum number of Shards of God Stones the defeated party possesses.

For example, if a warrior possesses ten Shards of God Stones, killing them would yield at most ten Shards of God Stones.

However, this is just the upper limit, the theoretical maximum.

In reality, the number of shards obtained is random, ranging from 0 to 10. Zero means no shards were obtained. Furthermore, even if the defeated party had no Shards of God Stones in their possession, the drop would still be random between 0 and 1, meaning a maximum of one shard could be obtained.

Therefore, this is actually a matter of considerable luck.

Considering the situation of the warriors, Bai Ye believed that the Predators must have conquered quite a few forbidden zones, and the people they had killed were undoubtedly numerous.

However, since the Predators were a group, it meant that even if they completed forbidden zone missions, they wouldn't all be completed by a single individual. Consequently, in the same vein, even if they obtained Shards of God Stones, they wouldn't be distributed to one person. Otherwise, given the Predators' overall strength, they would have secured at least one spot in the previous Twelve Great Battles.

Therefore, in Bai Ye's opinion, the warriors definitely possessed Shards of God Stones, but not too many. The fact that he obtained five at once might mean he was already close to the upper limit of their holdings. He had truly been blessed by the goddess of fortune.

"So sweet, so sweet!"

Bai Ye couldn't help but hum, but he didn't forget his primary objective. After humming a couple of times, he quickly began to observe his surroundings and then followed the trail of blood.

Although he had obtained the Biological Scanning and Computing System, and his purpose for coming to the glacier had been achieved, the forbidden zone had not yet ended. Moreover, obtaining more loot was always a good thing, and the plasma cannon was very tempting.

As for whether he could defeat the Blooded Xenomorph, Bai Ye didn't even consider it. At worst, he could use his Golden Gacha. Since a Designated Gacha cost one Shard of God Stone, and defeating the Blooded Xenomorph would yield two Shards of God Stones, he would be guaranteed to earn at least one.

Bai Ye thought to himself as he left the mess hall and pursued the trail. Soon, Bai Ye saw a Xenomorph corpse lying in the corridor, with drag marks and blood leading further ahead, indicating that another battle had broken out during the pursuit.

Bai Ye didn't stop and continued to advance along the bloody trail.

In Bai Ye's view, the Blooded Xenomorph had likely appeared.

Facing ordinary Xenomorphs, the more than a dozen Predators possessed technological equipment, experience in dealing with Xenomorphs, and team coordination. It wasn't a complete annihilation, but they would certainly have the upper hand. Yet, the Predator side had lost six of their own, with over a third of them killed!

Therefore, it was highly probable that they had encountered more than just ordinary Xenomorphs.

Naturally, it was very likely that they had encountered the Blooded Xenomorph.

Bai Ye thought as he reached the end.

This was the mechanical area of the research team's base. Descending a row of metal stairs, Bai Ye could see many machines he didn't recognize, as well as numerous interwoven metal pipes. And...

There was still the smell of blood!

Bai Ye reached out and grasped his Zanpakuto, slowly drawing it out, and then holding it diagonally at his side, he walked forward.

About seven or eight meters ahead, a Predator's corpse appeared before Bai Ye. It was slumped on the ground, leaning against a machine, with blood splattered all around.

Bai Ye approached the corpse and glanced at it, saying, "Indeed, the Blooded Xenomorph has appeared!"
