Tosh brought the Rangers a deal of collecting crystals and dizines.

As a local, Jim Renaud has heard of these two things, the ghost crystal is a special nature of the energy crystal, the energy contained is much higher than the ordinary energy crystal, and the color is different from the azure blue of the ordinary energy crystal, but the color of gold.

This golden energy crystal has many properties that cannot be understood with current technology, and these properties can be used to create some high-end equipment that can only be obtained in a laboratory environment.

The Tyranid Empire has been focusing on collecting these things, and as a result, the price of the spectre crystal remains high on the black market.

For Jim Renault, even if he could afford these things, he didn't have the technology to use them.

The Rangers, who have been fighting guerrilla warfare all year round, don't have the leisure to engage in weapons research and development, and if it weren't for the help of Dr. Arielle Hansen, a college tyrant, Stetelman's lab would not have known when it would be operational.

The properties of diazine are the opposite of phantom, which is a certain quenching product of energy crystals, while diazine is the original state of high-energy gas.

The birth of diazine requires a harsh natural environment, and most of it is buried deep inside the planet.

Only a very small number of planets will have terazine on the surface due to drastic geological changes or some special circumstances.

According to Tosh's information, the Spectre Crystal exists on a volcanic planet called Redstone Star.

Because the surface of the planet is spewing lava all year round, the cost and harvest of collecting spectre crystals are not cost-effective, and the Tyranid Empire has not paid attention to this planet.

Collect Spectre Crystals here, and don't worry about being targeted by the Imperial fleet...... However, it will be targeted by insects.

Luckily, however, the insects are not very accustomed to this world full of lava, and the size of the insect nests is not large.

If you're serious, you can withstand the pressure of the insects and collect enough phantom crystals to sell them for a good price.

Tosh will find Jim Reno's Rangers, also because Jim Reynolds' Rangers are experienced in fighting the Insects.

Although the news of the rescue of the colony of Agria was covered up by the Empire, it could not be concealed from those who had a heart.

Desazine is a little more troublesome, due to the problem of extraction technology, this more primitive high-energy gas has only research value and no use value for the human race in the Koplu Star Area.

Therefore, it will not encounter the Imperial fleet when gathering diazine.

But the problem is that there is such a thing as dizine, which is very popular among the astral spirits...... To be precise, it is very popular among the religious lunatics of the Tadarin Star Spirits.

The Tadarin Star Spirit called it the "Creator's Breath" and believed that each wisp of it was a gift from Aemon, the god of darkness...... In response to this view, Aemon said that it was a misunderstanding.

Tadarin Star Spirit uses diazine in a way that is not used as an energy source.

Rather, it is bathed in it, enjoying the hallucinogenic sensation brought about by the fusion of diazine and one's own psionic energy...... In other words, it is to "suck"

Tosh didn't have the ability to find out which planet had diazine underneath, but he knew that following Tadarin would definitely find where it was.

Therefore, in the information he provided, the planet that owns the diazine is on a planet called "Baisher" in the Star Spirit Territory.

As an important source of tadarin star spirits, Baisher is stationed with a fleet many times larger than Tadarin on the planet Monlais.

However, Tosh doesn't need much diazine, as long as he rubs a little, it's a big deal to pretend to be forced to run away again.

After listening to the information provided by Tosh, Jim Renaud thought for a moment and said: "If it's possible, let's dig more spectre crystals, that thing can be sold for a good price on the black market, as for dizine, that kind of alien hallucinogen, take a little secretly, those Tadarin shouldn't say anything." ”

As he said this, Jim Renaud had forgotten that he had stolen a Sarnagar artifact from the Tadarin Star Spirit on the planet Monrais before.

Anyway, those Mobius Foundations are also quite rich, and after knowing that the artifact was in Jim Renaud's hands, he directly transferred the commission to the account, and said that before the artifact was collected, it would be okay to put it on the Hyperion.

"Commander, most of the spectre crystals in the black market will be bought by a mysterious buyer, and various clues indicate that the buyer is the weapons research department of the Tyranid Empire." Captain Matt reminded from the side.

In other words, if you dig up too much and sell it on the black market, you will be suspected of being an enemy.

No one knew what terrible apocalyptic weapons Arcturus' men would use those spectres to develop and use on the Rangers' heads.

"Don't worry about this, what we ghosts are best at is infiltrating destruction." Tosh, who was worried that Jim Renault would change his mind because of Matt's words, hurriedly said.

"Well, don't worry, Arcturus can't make any moths." Jim Reynolds also said confidently.

That being said, but what Jim Renault was thinking in his heart was to sell the Phantom Crystal to the Empire, and then use the Empire's money to exchange technology from the UED in mercenary skins from Mishan, who might be the enemy.

"Well, Commander, it's me who is too talkative." Matt, who has no mind reading, no longer speaks.

Jim Renault, who has decided on the next mission, finds Mishan and tells him what he needs.

"Uh...... Resource gathering equipment? Misr asked, repeating Jim Reynolds' request.

"Well, the surface of Redstone Star is periodically covered with lava, and most of the Pyrolite clusters are in low-lying areas that will be covered by lava, do you have any engineering vehicles that can be mined in lava areas?" Jim Renaud nodded and continued:

"There are a large number of Star Spirit troops stationed on Baisher's side, and the engineering vehicles will definitely be attacked when they are collecting diazine."

In short, Jim Renault wanted to get a more advanced SCV engineering vehicle from Mishan to complete the two acquisition missions.

As for why you want this, and not the troops...... Because the troop cards are all disposable, the pyrocrystals and diazine that need to be collected are divided into two planets.

Jim Reynolds didn't want to gamble on whether he could draw 2 SSRs in a row at a time, he was sure that he was a non-chieftain who needed to be smuggled...... I learned this from Mishan.

What's more, it is possible to draw out troops that are not suitable for these two tasks, although Jim Renaud is very confident in the combat effectiveness of the troops on Mishan's side, but he is not afraid of ten thousand.

Engaging in some more advanced SCVs can do more with less.

Seeing Jim Renault pose as a penny to be broken into two petals, Mishan kept a smile and thought for a while and said:

"This is easy to do, I will rent a construction vehicle at a low price to deal with your current situation, so you don't have to waste the opportunity of the lucky bag."

"......" Jim Renaud looked at Mishan's confident smile, and always had a feeling that he had been cheated again.

A few days later, in the orbit of Redstone, in the Huberian armory, several transport planes slowly lowered dozens of specially customized engineering vehicles.

For a more surprising look, these engineering vehicles are draped in a dark green canvas.

"This is a construction vehicle with the most cutting-edge technology." Taking Jim Renaud and Tykes to Mishan next to a construction truck, he lifted the canvas on one of them and said.

"Trucks?" Jim Renault, who had been expectant, became confused when he saw the engineering vehicle under the canvas.

Under the canvas is a box all-terrain crawler with two pairs of tracks and a box towed behind it.

"No, it's called the Chrono Armed Mining Vehicle!" Mishan said in a very subtle tone: "Build a dedicated mine in your base, and then this mining vehicle equipped with a time-space response engine can be teleported back to the mine to unload after completing the collection task. ”

"And the multi-layered high-strength metal armor used can make this chrono mining vehicle flooded by lava without any accidents, but it can't move."

"Once the lava has receded, the Chrono Mining Vehicle can continue its mission."

"In order to prevent accidents during driving or mining, the body is also equipped with two open-ground dual-purpose gate cannon sets, with 200 to 400 rapid-fire cannons per second, which can easily tear insects or star spirits to pieces."

In order to prove this sentence, Mishan also deliberately put a jumping insect in the cage for a fire test, and under the rapid-fire barrage of the gate cannon, the jumping insect turned into meat sauce in less than a second.

With all their attention on the power of the fire, neither Jim Renaud nor Tykes noticed why the jumping worm in the cage was so obedient.

"It's a problem that the bullets are used too quickly, even if you use the same 8mm steel nail bullets as the C-14 Gauss rifle, you can only fire at full ammunition for a minute, but you will resupply the ammunition every time you return, and besides, you can't just send a vehicle to collect it, right?"

"Due to the instability of the diazine, I don't recommend using the Chrono Teleportation Engine when collecting the diazine, but as long as there are enough of these Chrono Armed Mining Vehicles, those astral spirits will definitely not be able to stop you."

"How! Is it a feeling of great value for money, as long as 100,000 can rent 50 cars, and a full set of instruction manuals are included, three special mines can be built for free, and the additional two can be discounted. ”

After the introduction, Yoneshan smiled "Thank you for your patronage".

"One hundred thousand, ah......" Jim Renaud finally reflected why he had the feeling of being cheated before.
