Chapter 269: Nuclear Explosion

Bang!

Shlipe crashed into the forest, crushing the trees, dusting up and smashing into a large crater.

A terrifying sword wound slashed from Shlipe's left shoulder to his waist, almost disemboweling him, the wound was charred black, the internal organs and bones could be clearly seen, and a large amount of blood could not stop spraying out.

If it were someone else, the cultivation would be a little lower, and he would have died on the spot if he was so seriously injured.

This is also the Martial Saint, the Force condenses into a liquid state, and the body gradually begins to transform into an energy structure from the inside out, and is no longer an ordinary life form, so Shlipe still has a breath left, and frantically turns the Force to converge on the wound, forming frost, using low temperature to freeze the wound and prevent the injury from deteriorating.

"Ahem......" He moved twice with difficulty, his thick limbs were weak for a while, and he lay in the pit looking at the silence in the sky, his eyes were full of horror.

He had never seen such a sharp swordsmanship in his life, and it was clear that the cultivation of the two was about the same, but he couldn't even move through three moves in Xin Lian's hands.

After hundreds of years of interstellar travel, Shlipe can't remember the last time he was defeated so neatly. He was very unwilling, he still had a few hole card tricks that he hadn't played, and if he did it again, he would never be so careless.

"Am I going to die here today?" Shlipe regretted that he had been cautious all his life, and finally capsized in the gutter because of an uncontrollable greed.

He closed his eyes, his chest heaving as if he were about to die.

High in the air, Xin Silent hovered for a few breaths, looking down at Shlipe on the ground. In fact, he had the opportunity to kill Shlipe just now, but he stopped at a critical time.

This is a Martial Saint-level powerhouse, it would be too wasteful to kill it like this.

Although he can't quickly condense the Force meridian now, and his cultivation is stuck in a bottleneck, even if he uses the Star Devouring Secret Method to devour the Force, he can't enhance his cultivation, but Shlipe's value is far more than a Force force, and his memory is also a valuable asset, and the four-star exercises he cultivates alone are very valuable.

The trouble is that there are outsiders present now, and I can't extract memories in front of them.

"I can only capture him alive first, and then decide what to do with it later." Xin Lone swooped down, and Shlipe on the ground remained motionless, as if he had resigned himself to his fate.

Suddenly, a warning sign suddenly appeared in telepathy, the pores of his body stood upside down, his skin seemed to be pricked by needles, and he felt a great danger coming at him.

"Huh?" The silence becomes unfazed, and the source of the danger is immediately discovered.

Not far from Shlipe is the crashed spherical fighter, which has long lost power, and I don't know when it received the self-detonation command, at this moment the internal nuclear power reactor is running wildly, and the huge energy accumulation exceeds its upper limit in an instant, and the energy is out of control and dumped outward.

"Nuclear explosion!" Xin Silence turned and ran, pushing his speed to the limit, and disappeared from mid-air with a whoosh.

Bang......

A white light that could not be seen directly lit up in the forest, like a small sun, the whole world was darkened, and the mushroom cloud hundreds of meters high rose, and the infinite light and heat formed a terrifying shock wave, sweeping in all directions. Even if Xin Silence escaped one step earlier, he was inevitably hit in the back by a lightning-fast shockwave.

Xin Lonely stumbled and almost fell out of the air.

The power of this explosion is similar to that of a small tactical nuclear bomb with a yield of 1,000 tons, and he has already propped up the magnetic field shield, blocking most of the shock wave power, coupled with the inextinguishable flame on the surface of his body, he has escaped far enough, but he was only grazed by the aftermath of the explosion, so he was not injured.

After more than ten seconds, the smoke and dust dissipated, the spherical fighter plane was no longer even slag, a large crater with a diameter of tens of meters appeared in the forest, the ground was melted into a glass shape by the high temperature generated by the explosion, and all the trees within a kilometer of the surrounding area fell in a radial shape.

Xin Lin looked at the white ground caused by the explosion, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Originally, Shlipe's location was empty, and there was no one in sight.

The five-person team rushed over in disgrace, they were far away from the explosion point, so they all seemed to be embarrassed, but in fact they were safe and sound. When they saw that Shlipe was gone, they were all afraid for a while, and the human generals led by them suddenly became nervous and asked loudly: "Senior, he escaped?" ”

Xin Lin landed and stood on the edge of the crater formed by the nuclear explosion, and let out a faint "um", as if he was not in a hurry about Shlipe's escape.

He was indeed not surprised, after all, he was the martial saint of the Rick clan, and he must have some means to save his life.

In the explosion just now, Shlipe forcibly suppressed the injury by some means, regained his mobility, and with the help of the thrust of the shock wave, he fled into the star well at the foot of the volcano in the blink of an eye at an extremely fast speed. When he fled, he didn't forget to take his warhammer with him.

Shlipe thought he was doing something hidden, but he didn't know that his every move did not escape the telepathy of Xin Lone. Wherever Shlipe fled, he left a trail and never wanted to escape telepathic tracking.

Xin Lin was originally thinking about what to do with Shlipe, and when he found out that he had escaped, it could be said that he was in the middle of the game, saving him from being seen by others when dealing with him.

He looked at his fellow clansmen in front of him and asked, "What's your name?" ”

"Huh?" The human general was stunned for a moment, thinking that Xin Lin didn't go to pursue the enemy, and he actually had the heart to ask his name. However, he didn't dare to say it, so he replied helplessly: "Senior, my name is Luo Hanqi, and I am from the White Night City of Jianmen Star. ”

Xin Lin nodded, in fact, he was quite strange in his heart, his age may not even be half of Luo Hanqi's, but he has always called himself a senior, and he was called old.

If Luo Hanqi knew his real age, I don't know how he would feel?

Xin Lin felt that it was better to maintain a sense of mystery, so he didn't put away his armored helmet to reveal his true face, turned his head to look at Luo Hanqi's partners, and said, "Your strength is good, you can hold out under Shlipe for so long. ”

Luo Hanqi shook his head modestly and introduced his teammates to Xin Lian.

He pointed to the female swordsman of the Qingling clan and said, "This is Ilna of the Qingling clan, the three-leaf swordsman, presumably the predecessors know the origin of the Qingling clan." ”

"Thank you, Master, for saving your life." Ilna bowed slightly to Xin Lin and made a special etiquette to Xin Lone.

"It doesn't matter." Xin Lin waved his hand, he had been on Gasmanda Island for a year, he knew the Qingling clan very well, and knew that this was a very solemn thank-you gift, and the Qingling clan was also used to calling the martial saint a sword saint or a master.

His gaze swept back and forth between Luo Hanqi and Ilna, and he immediately noticed that the relationship between the two was quite ambiguous, and then thought of their high tacit understanding in the previous battle, and the two swords were together, and he couldn't help but shake his head in his heart. This Luo Hanqi is quite powerful, it has only been a few years since the Qingling Clan was annexed to the Federation, and he hooked up with a beautiful woman and was abducted to the Flame Scale Star.

Luo Hanqi was furious by Xin Lonely, and he was very weak-hearted, so he coughed dryly and continued to introduce the rest of his teammates.

The tall stone man is called Athursta, from the Hill Rock Clan of the Sagittarius Spiral Arm, this is a rare and strange race, born with divine powers, all the adults of the clan are rigid warriors, with the talent of "stone skin", musculoskeletal is comparable to copper skin and iron bones, and the defense is very amazing.

The Soul Warlock is a Flora from Perseus.

"Flora?" Xin Lin was a little surprised, he had heard of this race, and a few years ago at Lu Chengyin's wine tasting party drank a fine wine called "Green Light", which was made by the Flora people.

The Flora are a semi-vegetative race, advocating nature and loving peace by nature, and are a very famous race among the many races in the galaxy.

"I've drunk 'Green Light' and it tastes good." Xin Xiao said casually.

The creature warlock named "Qing Kui" seemed to be a little afraid of Xin Lone, whispered "thank you", and hid behind the stone man, like a frightened deer, not daring to show his head again.

The last introduction is the squirrel of the cyborg organism, its origin is unknown, even Luo Hanqi does not know very well, only that it is called "Quick Claw", and it is good at modifying and using various firearms.

Xin Lin glanced at this strange creature, telepathically probed into its interior, and found that this guy had a lot of secrets. It does not have the Force to cultivate in its body, but its strength is very strong, and the craftsmanship of making its body is extremely superb, and it should have existed for a long time, with a lifespan of at least a thousand years!

Fast Claw was originally a very short-tempered creature, but its perception was very keen, and it could vaguely detect Xin Lone's visit, and wanted to scold loudly, but his whole body shivered, and suddenly he felt a little cold on his body, and he couldn't say a word for a while.

"This guy is horrible."

It muttered to itself, not daring to look directly at Xin Lone, not even realizing that its previously well-balanced claws were trembling uncontrollably.

In fact, not only the fast claw, but everyone in the entire team felt very cramped inexplicably in front of Xin Lian. They had just seen Xin Lin show his might with their own eyes, and almost killed Shlipe, knowing that Xin Lone's strength was extremely strong, and if he wanted to, he could wipe out his entire team with a raised hand.

In addition, Xin Lin also has a strange sense of mystery, as if he can see through himself at a glance, and there is no secret in front of him.

This terrifying feeling sent a shudder through them.

Even if Xin Silence did not show hostility and saved them, there was still an indescribable heavy shadow hanging over everyone's hearts, lingering.

Xin Lin smiled meaningfully and asked, "Why is Shlipe chasing you?" ”

"Uh......" Luo Hanqi hesitated for a moment, his eyes swept over his teammates, his eyes collided, and he immediately understood what they meant, and he had to make his own decision.

He struggled in his heart for a few seconds, and finally gritted his teeth, took out an item from the bag on his armored waist, handed it to Xin Lian, and said, "He wants to rob our prospecting beetles." ”

It is a red metal ball, about five centimeters in diameter, and its surface is composed of pieces of diamond-shaped nails.

Luo Hanqi pinched a piece of armor, and the ball made a clattering mechanical collision sound, as if it had come to life, and quickly cracked, and delicate parts stretched out from it, turning and transforming, and finally forming a mechanical creature.

Its main body is seven points similar to that of the earth's pangolin, with a scaly back and a slender body, and the front port is a small tunnel-digging shield machine, with eight legs under its belly and thin nano wings on both sides, which obviously has the ability to fly. However, it seemed to run out of power at this time, and it was motionless in Luo Hanqi's hand and could not fly.

Xin Lin recognized this delicate mechanical bionic body, and couldn't help but widen his eyes and be taken aback.

"Prospecting beetles!"

On Flamescale, the prospecting beetle is known to everyone, and every explorer has been exposed to or heard of it at some point. This beetle is a cutting-edge technological creation of the Flame Scale Clan, and it has only one function, and that is to search for ore veins!

The underground world of the Flame Scale Star is too vast, the area of hundreds of layers adds up to several times larger than the surface of the planet, and the environment is complex, hiding countless dangers, limited by the size of the star well, large prospecting equipment cannot enter or exit, and it is extremely difficult to find the fire source crystal ore and the empty star stone mine in the underground world.

As a result, the Flame Scale Clan developed prospecting beetles, which are small, heat-resistant, and flexible, and can adapt to many harsh environments and move freely in the underground world.

Powered by absorbing heat, these mechanical beetles are able to burrow underground in search of ore veins, recording all the areas it has visited, as well as everything it has explored.

The Flame Scale Clan has placed different numbers of prospecting beetles in each layer of the underground world, ranging from millions to tens of billions, and they are burrowing into the ground all the time.

Once the vein is found, the mechanical beetle, which is originally black, will change color.

If the Ignition Crystal is found, the prospecting beetle will turn red; If it is found in the Sky Star Mine, the prospecting beetle will turn silver.

However, the prospecting beetle has a fatal flaw, because the underground world is everywhere gravitational turbulence interference, and the electronic signal is difficult to connect, so after finding the ore vein, the prospecting beetle cannot directly transmit the information back, and can only fly back to the base of the Flame Scale Star. Also due to information interference, prospecting beetles often get lost, or are destroyed by firebeasts, and are lost forever in the wild.

Explorers often find prospecting beetles in the underworld, some working and some damaged, but rarely encounter a beetle that has changed color, which means it has found a vein!

The prospecting beetle in front of me is red, which means that it has found a fire source crystal!

No wonder Shlipe is desperately chasing down Luo Hanqi and the others, a fire source crystal mine of immeasurable value is placed in front of him, no matter who he is, he must be tempted.

Xin Silence sighed softly and asked, "On which floor did you find it?" ”

This is a critical question, because the prospecting beetle is likely to find a vein that has been found to be being excavated, and the owner of the deposit has a heavy guard, even if it knows the location of the vein, it is of little use.

"Level 457." Luo Hanqi replied.

Xin Lin nodded, with such a deep layer, there are few explorers and flamescale activities, it should be a brand new vein. Of course, the fact that the prospecting beetle is found in this layer does not mean that the ore vein is in this layer, because the beetle will wander around and will continue to run between the underground worlds after finding the ore vein.

However, it is not easy to get the location of the ore vein when the prospecting beetle is in hand.

The information in the beetle is all encrypted, and generally only the Flame Scale Clan can decipher it, so Luo Hanqi and the others will return with the beetle, obviously trying to find someone to decipher the content through the black channel.

Luo Hanqi looked at Xin Lin nervously, and took the initiative to say, "We didn't plan to decipher the beetle, we are going to sell it directly." ”

"It's also a good way, although the yield is lower, but it's safer." Xin Lin can understand the approach of Luo Hanqi and others, their strength is not enough, in case of leakage, they may not even know how to die. It is also difficult to dig up the fire source crystal ore, and without the support of the forces, it is too difficult to dig up the fire source crystal ore from the depths of the earth and sell it.

He probed telepathy into the beetle, and with a movement in his heart, he reached out and took the red prospecting beetle.
