Zhuang Xiaolin asked people to replace the two sets of armor next to the ice cube with new batteries, and took out a few copies of the nutrient solution in the test tube and handed it to Qi Ying, she picked up a tube and inserted it into the interface of the armor's neck, and the nutrient solution immediately flowed into her mouth through the feeding pipe.

A tube of fifty milliliters of nutrient solution can provide three days of physical energy consumption, usually divided into eight to ten drinks, Qi Ying was obviously hungry for a long time, and directly drank a whole tube of nutrient solution.

"Whew...... Thanks a lot! ”

Qi Ying let out a sigh of satisfaction, and said with some embarrassment: "Our supplies ran out two months ago, and I also relied on my mental strength to make ice to satisfy my hunger to survive until now, and the taste of starvation is really uncomfortable." ”

Xin Lin couldn't help but smack his tongue secretly when he heard it, no wonder he had always felt that Qi Ying seemed to be very weak, it turned out that she hadn't eaten or drunk for two months.

The bodies of generals and warlocks began to evolve in a non-human direction, and they could survive for a long time by relying on the Force and telekinesis, and their need for oxygen was also very low, but they could not completely get rid of food and water, and they had to take a small amount of nutrients regularly, otherwise they would starve to death. However, this was already very strong, and the samurai could not do this, so Qi Ying could only freeze her two crew members.

Zhuang Xiaolin nodded, "You unseal the crew." ”

Qi Ying stepped forward, stretched out her finger and lightly touched the ice cube, and with a bang, the huge ice cube instantly disintegrated and turned into debris, and a man and a woman inside fell out and gradually woke up.

The oxygen content of the planet's atmosphere is extremely low, and the two crew members fell into a state of suffocation as soon as they woke up, coughing violently, their limbs scratching in the air, and when they opened their eyes, they saw the mercenaries around them, and they didn't care about being happy, and hurriedly grabbed the armored helmet next to them and put it on. The armor had sufficient energy and had begun to supply oxygen, and they took a few big breaths, and their faces suddenly calmed down.

"Captain." The female crew shouted for joy: "We are saved!" ”

The male crew members were also full of joy, looking at the mercenaries as if they had seen relatives.

Qi Ying smiled and nodded, "You put on the armor first, and I'll talk about it later." ”

Both of them are high-level warriors, and the freezing for a few months does not affect their physical functions, they are quick with their hands and feet, they help each other, and it only takes a few minutes to put on the armor, and then drink the nutrient solution to quickly recover their physical strength, and stand behind Qi Ying.

"Now you can talk about it, what's going on here?"

Zhuang Xiaolin asked with a serious face, "Where are the super civilization relics you are talking about?" And what's going on with those laser rays, and is there a way for us to return to space? ”

Everyone's eyes were on Qi Ying, which made her feel a lot of pressure.

Qi Ying sighed and said, "Xiaolin, you asked so many questions at once, I don't know where to answer you. We have been old friends for many years, we have cooperated several times before, and we have a good relationship, not as a last resort, and I will not ask you for help, so that you can go all the way to Orion to sit on the big nebula. ”

"Okay." Zhuang Xiaolin was silent for a few seconds, his face softened a little, and said, "Then let's say one by one, our supplies are very sufficient, and we have a lot of time. ”

However, Qi Ying shook her head and said with a wry smile: "No, we don't have much time, and it's very urgent. ”

This sentence immediately made the mercenaries nervous, and Zhuang Xiaolin hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Qi Ying said: "This strange star system will explode a large-scale energy transfer every once in a while, six stars regularly send energy to the planet at the center of mass, and the violent radiation fills the space within the entire galaxy, except for the range within 300 meters of the planet's surface, no place is safe." ”

"So your expedition ship ......," Zhuang Xiaolin reacted.

"That's right, that's how my expedition ship was destroyed." Qi Ying's eyes flashed with a little pain, and he said in a deep voice: "You don't know how terrible it was at that time, my expedition ship was parked in a low-altitude orbit, although it was not as good as your battleship, but it also weighed 180,000 tons, and it was vaporized in less than ten seconds, and there was not even a bit of scum left." ”

The mercenaries' faces are all wild, and the 180,000-ton spaceship is vaporized in a few seconds, how much energy does it take?

The cruiser of the Tyrant Tiger Mercenary Regiment weighed 400,000 tons, but it was not much different from 180,000 tons, and it could not resist such terrifying energy radiation.

"Captain Qi, what is the period of stellar energy explosion, and when is the next one?" Raven Drake asked anxiously.

Qi Ying looked at the time and replied: "I have been on the planet since the expedition ship gasified, and I have experienced another energy burst during this period, the eruption period is 1277 hours, almost fifty-three days, and there are 405 hours before the next eruption, that is, less than seventeen days. ”

There was a panic in everyone's hearts, if they couldn't return to the battleship and escape from the galaxy within seventeen days, the stellar energy would explode, and the battleship would be destroyed instantly, and they would never want to leave.

Zhuang Xiaolin suddenly found a suspicious point, and silently calculated the time point of the stellar explosion in his heart, he received a message for help after Qi Ying's expedition ship was destroyed, Qi Ying was already on the planet at that time, and he couldn't send a signal at all, and he couldn't communicate with the outside world through the quantum repeater of the expedition ship, how did he do it?

He asked directly to his face.

Qi Ying smiled slightly and explained: "I wrote the rescue information before landing, stored it in the mailbox of the Federation, and then let the optical brain of the expedition ship automatically issue instructions to the mailbox every hour, delaying the sending of information for an hour, the expedition ship was destroyed, and after an hour did not receive the delay instruction, the information was sent out in time." ”

Zhuang Xiaolin's face suddenly changed.

Xin Lin also secretly admired, Qi Ying's method was very simple but quite ingenious, obviously she didn't want to tell Zhuang Xiaolin about the super civilization ruins, but she was afraid that there would be no one to rescue her if something happened, so she came up with such a back road.

It's no wonder that her rescue message is vague, only the coordinates of the star map and the warped course, and she doesn't say a word about the situation on the planet, because she didn't know what would happen on the planet when she wrote the message.

However, with her wit, in order to ensure that someone came to the rescue, it was obvious that Zhuang Xiaolin would not be the only one who sent a rescue message, and there must have been other people who had also received it.

Sure enough, Zhuang Xiaolin also thought of it and asked, "How many people did you send a rescue message?" ”

Qi Ying hesitated, but still said: "Three people, but at present, only you have arrived, and I don't know if the other two will come." ”

Zhuang Xiaolin was slightly unhappy in his heart and snorted.

Even though he was in a desperate situation at the moment, he still did not give up his attempt at the ruins of the super civilization, and did not want anyone else to get the news to compete.

"You haven't said what the hell is going on on this planet, and where are the remnants of the super civilization?" Zhuang Xiaolin asked.

"To be honest, I still don't know for sure." Qi Ying shook his head helplessly and explained: "When I was first exploring the interstellar space near Moyun Star, I accidentally received a piece of gravitational wave information, and after cracking it, I found that it pointed to the Orion Nebula, and the information came with a route into the depths of the nebula, so I ventured in and found this place. ”

"At that time, I suspected that this was the remains of a super civilization, but I couldn't find any signs of life on the planet, and there was no trace of artificial buildings, so I searched for more than half a month without results, and I only knew that the speed could not exceed Mach 7, so I landed on the ground to search."

"After landing, we learned that we couldn't return, that we were stranded on the planet, and that we had lost most of our crew on the first day. After a few days, the stellar energy exploded. ”

Speaking of this, Qi Ying and the two surviving crew members couldn't help but feel very sad, the expedition ship was vaporized, and the personnel on board naturally could not survive, but the people who landed on the ground were lucky to escape.

"But when the stellar energy exploded, I also discovered a place that seems to be the existence of relics, and that is the North Pole."

Qi Ying continued: "The energy of the six stars in the sky will gather over the North Pole and then be transported to the interior of the planet, so I suspect that the super civilization should be hidden underground at the North Pole. It's a pity that our landing site is south of the equator, more than 5,000 kilometers from the North Pole, and we can only use stones to warn you on the plain, and then continue to the north, but we lack materials and energy, and we have to stop all the way to this canyon. ”

After hearing this, everyone sighed and was speechless.

Since Qi Ying can write in stone on the plain, but does not directly write the latitude and longitude coordinates of the North Pole, he just doesn't want people to land directly at the North Pole, but leads people down to save them.

Everyone, you've been cheated!

Although there are indeed relics of suspected super civilizations, this planet is really too dangerous, and if you knew that this was the case, you would not be willing to run to death no matter how much money you give.

Zhuang Xiaolin's face sank like water, and he sneered: "Aren't you afraid that we will go from somewhere else and not pass through this canyon?" ”

"No, it won't." Qi Ying chuckled, seemed a little proud, and said: "This canyon is the only way to the North Pole, whether it is to the east or west, there are large areas of magma rivers blocking the way, only this canyon is relatively safe." I don't need to say much about the dangers of the magma river, but you must have already fought with the solar crystal nucleus. ”

"What is a solar crystal nucleus?" Someone asked strangely.

"You don't know yet?" Qi Ying was stunned for a moment, and took out a transparent test tube from the armor, which contained a drop of red liquid, the volume was only the size of a grain of rice, and it rolled in the test tube, like a crystal.

She showed the test tube in front of everyone and said: "This is the solar crystal nucleus, it looks like a liquid, but it is actually an extremely specific superfluid, I have tried dozens of methods but can't destroy it, and the toughness is a hundred times higher than that of carbon nanotubes!" It is the core of those giants, capable of absorbing all forms of heat energy, releasing it once when it is shaken by stress, clinging to solid matter to form a body, and frantically attacking the surrounding creatures until the energy is exhausted. ”

Zhuang Xiaolin looked carefully at the red liquid in the test tube, and said suspiciously: "I have searched many times after killing the giant, but I didn't find this thing. ”

"The solar crystal nucleus in each giant's body is very small, about the tip of a needle, it is difficult to find, and when the energy is exhausted, it will immediately dive underground, and if I don't freeze it by chance, I won't find it."

Qi Ying sighed: "Don't look at it as small as a grain of rice, this is actually formed by the fusion of the cores of more than a thousand rock giants, if you throw it into the magma river and let it absorb heat, the lava giants that will be shaped can be more than a hundred meters high!" ”

Everyone gasped, and the ten-meter-tall lava giant scared everyone away, how terrifying would the hundred-meter-tall lava giant be?

"Why do you call it the Solar Crystal Nucleus?" A mercenary was very curious and didn't understand how this thing had anything to do with the sun.

Qi Ying held the test tube firmly in her hand and said with a smile: "You guys stare at it, concentrate, don't blink, and you will understand if it lasts for more than five seconds." ”

The mercenaries did as they were told.

Five seconds later, a stellar vision appeared in everyone's mind, and they immediately took a few steps back in unison, their eyes full of horror.

"I see."

Zhuang Xiaolin looked at the liquid in the test tube thoughtfully, and asked, "What's the use of this thing?" He found that Qi Ying seemed to attach great importance to the solar crystal nucleus, like a rare treasure.

Qi Ying glanced at Zhuang Xiaolin, pursed his lips, and decided to tell the truth, saying: "The solar crystal nucleus can be used as an energy converter, it can absorb all forms of heat, convert it into vacuum energy of thermal nature, and be directly absorbed by thermal warriors for cultivation. ”

As soon as these words came out, it was like a shock, and the mercenaries stared at the sun crystal nucleus in Qi Ying's hand, and their eyes were hot.

Qi Ying seemed to be unconscious, and continued: "Moreover, the solar crystal nucleus can be used repeatedly, and after the energy contained in it is consumed, the heat can be used again, which is quite an inexhaustible vacuum crystal." The solar crystal nucleus in my hand, its capacity is about four to six vacuum crystals, if it is brought to the Federation for auction, how much do you say it is worth? ”

"Five tens of billion!" A mercenary couldn't help but shout loudly.

Qi Ying sneered and looked at the mercenary who shouted out 50 billion, his eyes seemed to be looking at an idiot.

The mercenary's face turned red when she saw it, but he also realized that the value of this solar crystal nucleus was far more than 50 billion. The average price of a vacuum crystal in the Federation is 300 million, and as long as the solar crystal nucleus is charged about 30 times, it can withstand a vacuum crystal worth 50 billion.

This is simply a priceless treasure, if it is really put into federal auction, it is possible that the transaction price will exceed one trillion!

All of a sudden, many mercenaries are greedy, as long as they get a solar crystal nucleus, not to mention that they don't have to worry for a lifetime, they will have endless money for ten lifetimes.

Qi Ying snorted coldly, and a mental power swept through the cave with an eerie chill, making the mercenaries feel excited, and their minds were sober, and then they remembered that it was a second-level ice warlock standing in front of them, and wanting to move the sun crystal nucleus in her hand was no different from sending her to death.

"If you want the Sun Crystal Nucleus, go and kill the giants to collect it yourself." Qi Ying said lightly, and put the test tube containing the sun crystal nucleus back into the armor.

The mercenaries were stunned and regretted in their hearts.

Along the way, the number of rock giants killed by everyone has been at least two thousand, and the main guns of the battleships on the plains have killed even more giants, and if you collect them, you can get at least four or five solar crystal nuclei!
