Chapter 36: The Golden Desert

The map marked that the habitat of the creature called the bone eel that Su Yun was looking for was in a place called the Golden Desert, which was more than six hundred kilometers away from the underground base that Su Yun left behind.

Fortunately, the hoverbike that Su Yun was riding on was extremely fast and ignored the terrain restrictions because there was no interference from tire friction, but even so, it took nearly an hour and a half to reach the destination at full speed.

However, Su Yun didn't care about wasting this time at all, but just like a child who had just gotten a new toy, he was happy to gallop on the surface of the planet, because it was a high-safety area all the way, it was difficult to encounter any threats, so he didn't have to be careful, until he ran out of energy and had to stop to replenish some, Su Yun was a little detached from this excitement, and at this time it was not far from the destination,

I was a little carried away before, the energy consumption was too fast, at this time Su Yun had to slow down, and calculated in his heart whether the remaining energy crystals at hand were enough for his own round trip, and came to the conclusion that it should be barely enough, but I still didn't feel at ease, and then let the Q version of the girl calculate the best energy consumption speed, and then stuck the speed at that point, although the pleasure is reduced a lot, but the benefit is that the endurance distance is relatively much longer, enough insurance,

According to the location shown on the map, as long as you turn over the undulating mountain terrain in front of you, you have already entered the scope of the Golden Desert, but this map is also an old object from two hundred years ago, I don't know if the terrain will change during this time,

It didn't take long for Su Yun to reach the commanding heights of this mountain, this place has an excellent line of sight, and he can already see the golden desert in the distance completely.

"Isn't it?" Su Yun frowned slightly, looked at the desert in the distance and muttered to himself,

In the oldest language families of mankind, the Hebrew used to write the original spiritual text of the Western world, the Bible, is actually seriously lacking in adjectives, so most of the descriptions in Hebrew are carried out in a figurative way, such as 'Your eyes are like jewels', 'My love is more fragrant than fine wine', so the Bible is actually very difficult to read, but this simple form of metaphor is very easy to understand in any nation and any context, so the Bible itself is widely disseminated. But describing it in the form of a metaphor will also give rise to a lot of misunderstandings, such as the golden desert in front of Su Yun at this time,

In the general context, seeing such a place name will basically be understood as an exaggerated description of characteristics and human yearning for beautiful things, just like the golden sand will be compared to gold, and the moon will be compared to a silver plate, but the desert in front of you seems to be beyond Su Yun's understanding of exaggerated metaphors, or this place name is actually extremely pragmatic and simple, because from Su Yun's point of view, the desert in front of him is simply golden sand.

Boundless golden sand

Su Yun couldn't rub his eyes with the helmet of bionic power armor, so he could only blink twice to make sure that what he saw was not an illusion, the scene in front of him did not change in the slightest, the light of the two suns in the sky sprinkled on the golden sands The dazzling light reflected on the golden sand felt very unreal, and he checked his attributes and did not find anything abnormal, all this seemed to be true in front of him,

Su Yun's brows furrowed more and more, although he felt that this golden desert was in front of him at this time, but the so-called Wangshan running dead horse was actually quite a distance away from the edge, fortunately, he didn't have to run by himself at this time, and drove straight over on a motorcycle,

Soon, Su Yun completely entered the scope of the Golden Desert, and he couldn't care so much, jumped directly from the motorcycle, reached out and grabbed a handful of golden sand on the ground, feeling that the texture and appearance were no different from the real golden sand, so that the Q version girl scanned it a little, glanced at the scan results, and found that this thing was really gold,

Gold(Au)

[Soft metal, chemically stable, golden-colored, strong corrosion resistance, strong ductility, excellent electrical conductivity]

【Boiling Point】1064°c

[Electronegativity] 2.54

[Metals with extremely stable chemical properties, generally elemental in nature, belong to extremely rare precious metals in the past, and are special currencies often used for financial savings and investment, but as mankind enters the era of the universe, people find that extremely scarce precious metals in the earth of the original home of human beings abound in the universe, usually a planet is completely composed of gold There are not a few, and over time it has gradually lost its original unshakable important position, However, due to its extremely stable chemical properties and special physical properties, gold is still an indispensable and important resource in the industrial field.

【Industrial materials】Can be used for production and processing

Energy Consumption Modifier: 15%

Although according to the above statement, this thing is quite different from the kind of metal that makes human beings crazy in Su Yun's imagination, but the love for gold is rooted in the memory of the lowest level of human genes, not to mention that there is still an endless huge desert composed of golden sand, you can imagine how big the shock to Su Yun is,

It took a long time to recover a little, resisted the urge to take off the bionic armor and plunge into the golden sands, sat cross-legged on the golden sands and grabbed a handful with one hand, watched them flow between his fingers, calmed down and thought about it carefully, although this thing is an incomparably valuable thing in Su Yun's values, but according to the current environment, this thing can neither provide stable power for the cloning center, nor restore the necessary physical strength for Su Yun, it can be said to be worthless,

The ridicule of starving to death with his back to Jinshan really can't make people laugh if it is put in reality,

According to the description of the information obtained from the scan, this thing has now lost its basic scarcity attribute as a hard currency, at best it is only a better industrial material, and Su Yun is in a special situation now, because he is hostile to the Universe Coordinator Chamber of Commerce, so he can't participate in the system transaction normally, even if these things still retain their value as currency, they can only be smashed in their own hands,

But fortunately, this thing is not useless, at least it has the properties that other metals cannot match, and it may be used later, and there is no need to special mining, a whole desert open-pit sands mining area, directly dig out with a shovel is the finished product, all pure gold that is not even used for refining,

At this time, Su Yun's primary target is still the hollow eel that inhabits the hinterland of this golden desert, the specific heat capacity of gold is much larger than that of sand, this place is illuminated by two suns, the surface temperature is more than two hundred degrees, Su Yun wears bionic power armor with a set of life support system, naturally he will not feel too uncomfortable, but it is difficult to imagine that there are creatures that can survive in this extreme environment, under normal circumstances, the proteins in the body of organisms have already changed their properties in this environment,

I don't know what the specific habits of this hollow eel are, it's not easy to catch, but it seems that it takes a lot of effort to get them cooked, Su Yun looked at the external environment information displayed by the Q version of the girl in the helmet, and a strange thought suddenly popped up in his heart,

Throwing off the golden sand in his hand, he rolled over and stepped onto the hovercraft and drove towards the habitat of the hollow eel in the center of the desert.
