Chapter 128 Amethyst Mine Core
In fact, only this place in the entire Morkasa star is suffering from the attack of those star beasts, and other cities are very safe.
The other three life planets did not experience any beast tide outbreaks and were very safe.
Logically speaking, as long as we give up this place, everyone can survive well. Besides, there are not many natives on Morkasa, so we can completely migrate to other planets.
But the Morkasa civilization was unwilling to give up this place and made various explanations within the civilization, such as feelings for the mother planet and the fact that the lips and teeth are interdependent.
It was quite effective at the beginning, but as time went on, the anti-war sentiment of the Morcasa people became stronger and stronger.
If it weren't for the fact that Archon More had been fighting on the front line with them, some kind of resistance movement might have broken out long ago.
In the camp headquarters...
"The price of a thunder beast is about 50 million star coins. I will transfer the money to you when the time comes." Moore did not covet Li Yu's spoils.
"Only 50 million?" Li Yu seemed a little surprised.
Such a big thunder beast, which can also control electrical elements, can be sent to some large technology companies to produce a lot of C-level gene chains.
There is at least a billion in profit to be made, because costs must also be taken into consideration, as modulating the gene chain requires materials from various sources.
But the Morcasa civilization can only buy it for 50 million star coins.
"Alas... there's nothing I can do..." Moore sighed. The sadness of the small civilization was revealed all the time.
How could he not know the value of the Thunder Beast? But they didn't have a gene extraction device or a modulation device, and the gene chain could not be easily researched.
A small civilization can even have a small genetic chain workshop.
Those who are exploited are always the bottom class, whether it is individual life or collective civilization.
Moore seemed very worried: "Two thunder beasts appeared directly. I wonder if the more advanced star beasts speculated by the strategic department will appear."
"More advanced star beasts? B-level life forms?" The hunter frowned and glanced at Mor: "On an ordinary life planet, under normal ecological conditions , it is difficult for B-level life forms to be born."
"Morcasa seems to be just an ordinary planet with life. It doesn't have an extreme ecological environment, nor does it have special energy deposits..."
Moore was silent, and everyone knew what he was hiding.
The hunter sighed. Mor was the consul after all. Some things concerning the entire civilization were not something he could say just because he was excited.
"Your Excellency, Archon!" The mechanical door opened and Kelly suddenly walked into the command center. She had the authority here and did not need to report.
She frowned, looking a little anxious: "The Strategic Department detected a high-energy reaction underground. It is speculated that... it should be a star beast above the thunder beast."
"What!?" Moore stood up suddenly, his face extremely ugly: "Where is it?"
"It is located very deep, and is slowly rising. It has just reached the stratum that the Strategic Department can detect. If the speed remains unchanged, the Strategic Department estimates that it will take another half a month."
Moore breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay...it's okay..."
If they show up now, the camp that has just experienced a battle will probably be on the verge of collapse.
Class B life forms can be said to be superior in the interstellar space. Like DarkStar, they can roam the uncontrolled galaxy with an elite fleet.
Of course, his own strength is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary B-level life forms.
In fact, many large-scale looting groups are led by B-level life forms.
General Xinghui is just a B-level life form. At this point, he has almost no rivals on the surface of the earth .
It is completely not at the same level of life as C-level life forms.
He waved his hand and let Kelly go out... Before leaving, Kelly gave Li Yu a meaningful smile, which made Moore's mentality on the verge of exploding.
Moduo's scarlet pupils became deeper and his face was expressionless.
"B-level lifeform...are you sure you don't want to ask for help?" The hunter looked at Mor. What secret was it that made Mor hold on so stubbornly?
"I hope..." Moore looked at Li Yu, but was interrupted by Li Yu before he finished speaking: "I'm not interested. I can't beat him..."
"I didn't ask you to fight against a Class B life form..." Moore said unhappily, "I just wanted you to help distract them. Just buy them half a month."
"Is there any difference?" Li Yu shook his head and added: "The move just now is already the reward for hiding from the limelight here."
"If you want to threaten me, please be careful."
Moore was furious: "I haven't finished yet. Who said I threatened you? We will pay the corresponding compensation."
"Fifty billion star coins..." Li Yu immediately made an offer.
Moore was even more speechless: "With 5 billion, we can already create a Class B life form!"
"Forget it then..." Li Yu was not interested. Judging from the standards of thunder beasts, this B-level life form was probably above the standard and extremely difficult to deal with.
"You don't even tell us what you're hiding, so there's nothing we can do to help you." The hunter said, somewhat helplessly.
Li Yu glanced at the hunter. This sentence was directed to Li Yu. Let's see if they have any better price first.
I also said this to Moore. If he raises his offer quickly, there might still be hope.
At present, Li Yu's combat power is unique, far exceeding Morkasa's local combat power. If Morkasa fully cooperates, he may be able to barely resist the B-level life form.
Mor thought for a long time, finally gritted his teeth, and smiled bitterly at the hunter: "Boss Ze, it's not that I didn't trust you before, it's really because this is not just my own business."
"I understand, tell me quickly..." the hunter said impatiently.
"You guys come with me..." Mor looked around, referring to the hunter and Li Yu, but not Mo Duo and Li Ping.
What happens next is obviously a secret among secrets. It was revealed to Li Yu because he had a request. As for bringing the hunter along, it might be because of Moore's feelings for the hunter.
As for Moduo and Liping, they are outsiders.
Mo Duo walked out of here with an expressionless face, but Li Ping didn't have any special reaction.
After the two left, Moore carefully took out a smart terminal. After several verifications, the metal floor of the command center made a low humming sound, and a round silver-white elevator actually rose up.
"Please come in..." said Moore. Hunter and Li Yu looked at each other, both a little curious, and stepped into the elevator.
As the elevator started, Li Yu felt a sense of weightlessness, and the elevator went underground at an extremely fast speed.
"What are you digging here?" the hunter guessed.
"You'll know soon..." Moore kept the secret mysterious, making the hunter feel a little itchy.
Buzz buzz buzz -
The elevator was running and I could feel the sound of electromagnetic surges. I didn't know how deep it was underground, but the elevator slowly stopped.
After the elevator door opened, what appeared in front of Li Yu and the others was a huge cave, surrounded by searchlights, illuminating the entire cave as bright as day.
Staff members in white robes walked quickly, holding tablets in their hands and swiping on them from time to time.
The most eye-catching thing is a huge crystal with a faint purple light in the center of the cave. It is shaped like a heart, hanging on the stone wall, with stone lines like blood vessels extending around it.
Many sophisticated instruments surround this heart-like purple crystal, but it is not mined. It is only carefully cleaning the surroundings.
"What is this...?" The hunter was stunned for a moment, his expression changed drastically, and he pointed at the purple ore in disbelief.
The thing was not big, about the size of a millstone, with a faint purple light, and looked very magnificent.
"That's right...it's the amethyst core. After an adult amethyst beast dies, its heart undergoes tens of thousands of years of weathering before it can form an amethyst core." Moore said with some emotion.
Li Yu looked at the amethyst ore core, his clothes moved slightly, seeming to reveal his desire.
"Master, the Titan Colonial Suit requires amethyst cores. Devouring the amethyst cores will allow the Titan Colonial Suit to evolve..."
A small noisy sound rang in his ears, Li Yu's expression changed slightly, but he didn't say anything.
"This type of amethyst ore core is rare throughout the galaxy, and is an important material for creating many A-level technological creations." The hunter listed them all, seeming to know a lot about them:
“It is said that the Amethyst Civilization discovered an Amethyst and started its rise.”
"That's right..." Mor nodded and looked at the amethyst ore core. That was the future of Morcasa.
"The Amethyst Civilization was lucky enough to receive funding from the Star Empire and developed a series of Amethyst technologies to contribute to the development of the Star Empire."
"But we are affiliated with the Amethyst Civilization. If the Amethyst mine is discovered, there will be only one outcome."
Although Mor did not say it directly, everyone understood that being completely devoured by the Amethyst Civilization was the only fate for Morkasa.
The hunter suddenly realized: "No wonder those star beasts attacked here like crazy. Those star beasts all reproduced from the corpses of amethyst beasts. The amethyst ore core is a fatal temptation to them."
A-level life forms themselves have very high value. Their corpses combined with the Morkasa star have produced many special star beasts.
However, this star beast died tens of thousands of years ago, and the star beasts attacking outside should all be its descendants.
"That's right... Ever since the development and excavation of this amethyst mine core, a large number of star beasts have emerged from the ground for some unknown reason." Moore nodded.
"You want to use it to hire me?" Li Yu spoke with a hint of temptation.
Moore hesitated for a long time before gritting his teeth and saying, "I can give you ten grams..."
"Ten grams?" Li Yu stared at the purple crystal with dead eyes, and said, "You have one that big? Give me ten grams, is that appropriate?"
Moore said unhappily: "The value of the amethyst ore core is extraordinary. One gram of the original ore core is enough to sell for 100 million star coins, and there is no market for it."
The amethyst mine cores of the Amethyst Civilization had long been consumed, and the amethyst technology on which they depend for survival all relies on cultivated secondary amethyst.
No wonder More insisted on holding on to it. With such a big piece, anyone would have insisted on holding on to it.
"Then let's take fifty grams..." Li Yu said calmly.
"At most eleven grams..." Moore shook his head and said firmly.
"Then it's forty grams...the final bottom line." Li Yu's attitude was also firm.
Moore frowned: "Twelve grams, I'm in a dilemma..."
Li Yu hesitated: "Thirty grams, the risk is very high..."
"One price, fifteen grams!" Moore said decisively.
"Deal!" Li Yu also nodded with satisfaction.
Moore added: "This thing can only be completely harvested after a month. If you don't use special means, the whole thing will crack, so it must be able to withstand B-level life forms."
"No problem..." Li Yu nodded. It was just a Class B life form. He thought for a moment and then asked, "Do you have any black lizards captured alive?"
"Yes, but it's a lizard, what do you want to do?" Moore asked suspiciously.
"Research..." Li Yu looked puzzled and did not say it directly.
As Morkasa's enemy, the black lizard had naturally been studied countless times to find its weaknesses.
This creature likes darkness, is afraid of light and heat, and its eyes cannot withstand too strong light.
After leaving here, Moore ordered the research department to send a black lizard to Li Yu.
The black lizard was trapped in a metal cage, its limbs were bound with chains, its eyes were covered with blindfolds to prevent it from being blinded by strong light, and its mouth was also tightly bound with metal to prevent it from hurting people.
"Open his mouth, 45 degrees will do." Li Yu ordered.
"Yes!" The soldiers transporting the black lizards said with reverence. It was a great honor to be able to get close to the God Slayer.
The soldier pressed a button and the black lizard's mouth was forced open, revealing its densely packed teeth.
Li Yu asked the soldiers to leave. This was an ammunition depot, but it was now empty and was allocated to Li Yu.
The hunter looked at him curiously and said, "What do you want to do? Morkasa has studied the information about the black lizard very thoroughly. If you want it, why don't you just go and get it?"
Li Yu did not answer. A giant brown egg the size of a baby appeared in his hand, and strange insect shadows could be vaguely seen swimming inside it.
"What is this thing?" The hunter was startled and stepped back, unable to help but think of the virus that Li Yu had created.
Where on earth did this guy get all these perverted things?
" A very cute thing." Li Yu put the alien egg into the cage. The black lizard seemed to sense something and became uneasy instinctively, making bursts of roars.
The alien egg trembled slightly, and as the hunter's scalp tingled, the egg mouth opened slightly, like a blooming flower, and a facehugger crawled out.
The facehugger first turned its head to look at Li Yu, and the abalone-shaped mouth on its abdomen surged, expressing respect to Li Yu.
The hunter was startled and got goosebumps all over his body.
Li Yu nodded, and the facehugger turned around again, leaped up, and pounced on the black lizard's mouth. Then something seemed to shoot out from the abalone-shaped mouth of the facehugger.
Then its body fell weakly to the ground, began to stiffen and no longer move.
The black lizard was extremely terrified, feeling as if something was moving inside its body, and its beast instinct made it restless.
"Okay, just wait..." Li Yu said in a relaxed tone, as if he had completed a very small task.
"What are you waiting for?" The hunter was still a little confused.
"Of course, I'm waiting to solve Morkasa's troubles..."
…
In the headquarters, Moore was in a video conference. On the screen, several well-dressed old men were yelling at Moore:
"How can you decide the distribution of the mine core without authorization?"
"You should discuss it with us before making a decision!"
"Discuss with you?" Moore sneered, "Is there anyone who can give a solution to the B-level lifeforms?"
Everyone on the screen was silent. The old man on the far left said slowly, "Moir, what we mean is, what if they leak this secret?"
"If it's leaked, all our efforts will be wasted!"
The others echoed.
"Impossible!" Moore said flatly.
"Just because they are your friends? Let me tell you, friends are the two most meaningless words!"
"Of course not..." Moore snorted coldly, but did not intend to explain.
Li Yu was still being hunted by the Star Empire, and he had nothing better to do than to leak Morkasa's secret.
The relationship between those who have something on each other is very close, and no one wants anything to happen to the other.
"I'm more afraid of you than them!" Moore said this and turned off the screen. He frowned, his eyes flickering, as if he had finally made a decision.
Outside the command center, Murdo and Kelly seemed to be communicating. To be more precise, Kelly approached Murdo who was in a daze.
Kelly smiled and said, "I thought you were the follower of the God Slayer, but it turns out you are a friend..."
Mo Duo's face was indifferent: "The one next to him is the follower. I knew him when your so-called God Slayer was still a loser."
"We've been friends for so long, I'm so envious..." Kelly sighed, then said meaningfully: "Then I'm afraid that His Excellency God Slayer and I can no longer be ordinary friends."
What do you want to do if you can't be an ordinary friend? A comrade who always fights?
Moduo's scarlet eyes narrowed slightly, and invisible sparks flew when they rubbed against Kelly's golden eyes in the air.
"Mr. Li Yu!" Li Ping on the side called out loudly. Li Yu and the hunter with a frightened look on his face had just walked out of the warehouse.
Kelly and Moduo looked away at the same time and looked at Li Yu.
"Chatting..." Li Yu greeted naturally. Kelly changed her clothes. Morkasa's daily dress was quite open. Her delicate long legs were not concealed at all, and her shorts barely covered her hips.
She chuckled and said, "Your Excellency God Slayer, you haven't answered my previous question yet."
Li Yu glanced at her and shook his head, "Forget it for now. I'm afraid of angering your father. If he defaults on his debt, I won't be able to kill him."
Kelly: “…”
The corner of Mo Duo's mouth curled up slightly, but he quickly covered it up.
"After this matter is over, if there is still a chance, let's have a drink again." Li Yu immediately added.
Mo Duo suddenly narrowed his eyes, his face darkened, and he gave off an aura that said "keep away from strangers".
Kelly's face immediately lit up with a smile: "Then I'll wait..."
With a wave of her hand, Kelly left under the scorching gazes of the surrounding soldiers.
The hunter's body stiffened, a hint of red light flashed in the depths of his pupils, and he asked in a somewhat mechanical way: "Are you interested in this girl?"
"How is it possible..." Li Yu shook his head immediately: "Emotions need to be cultivated. I am a pure boy."
"I can't stand such overwhelming passion."
"Then why did you agree to go drinking with her?" the hunter asked again.
Li Yu glanced at the hunter and smiled: "It's just drinking, it's nothing, you can go with us when the time comes."
Mo Duo suddenly felt a little flustered, and inexplicably felt that these words were not spoken to the hunter, but to herself.
The next moment, the hunter came back to his senses and looked at Li Yu who was suddenly staring at him for unknown reasons. He seemed to remember something.
He quickly looked down at the time, and his face suddenly became miserable...
I disappeared for a few more minutes. Why was I always the one who got hurt? What did I do? I didn't remember anything.
Just drinking... Mo Duo thought to himself.
