Chapter 105: Parasites on the Planet
Cillin looked at the contents of the fish's belly with a folding knife, the big fish had completely died, and changes had begun to occur in the body.
Well?
Xilin's hand paused, and a black shadow shot out of the fish's belly, and Xilin's hand that didn't hold a knife grabbed it like lightning.
It was a long finger with a deep dark green body, which at first glance looked like black, and its head opened a large mouth and made a high-pitched cry that pierced people's ears. Many people who were busy with their work turned their attention to Xilin's hands.
"Wow, what is this? It tastes good! "The gray cat was going to run to sleep, but when she found it, she ran back to it.
"If you want to eat it, find it yourself, there is still it inside." Cillin said.
The gray cat sniffed the smell of the bug-like creature, and it was not too dirty, so it went straight into the belly of the fish to feed.
"What is this?" Shotton asked.
"It should be a parasite, I have seen some people find parasites in the weight of deep-sea fish before, although this big fish is not in the sea, but the conditions are about the same, I heard that the parasite in the body of the fish that lives in the depths is very powerful." Sirin observed the struggling parasite in his hand and placed a nearby stone to its mouth.
Poof-
The stone was bitten out of a gap.
Everyone who saw it took a deep breath, such a powerful thing is still a parasite, if this is parasitic in the human body, isn't it dead? No amount of hard bones is enough for it to gnaw.
After Cillin cut off its head with a knife, this thing will struggle for a while before stopping, which shows the tenacity of its vitality.
Cillin took the knife and rummaged through the belly of the fish again, and the parasites in it were almost eaten by the gray cat, and this guy was quite fast.
"Hey, wait, I'll keep some of that." Silin said as he tapped the gray cat's head with a folding knife.
The gray cat, who was about to bite down, spit out the contents of his mouth when he heard this: "This thing tastes pretty good." ”
"Of course, it's all about absorbing the essence of the host." Cillin put in a special bottle the small round balls the size of mung beans, which were the eggs of the parasite just now.
The gray cat, who was simmering in the belly of the fish, was covered in the green blood of a big fish, and was kicked into the river by Xilin to take a bath, and only after washing it was allowed to go ashore.
After arranging the situation here, Shoton took Sirin and the gray cat to the next team location, which was a land of ice and snow, and the coldest place on the planet, with a wide range of ice and snow.
The gray cat found two types of ore there, one transparent and one white.
Transparent Ice Ore is a special ore, not an energy ore, it does not provide energy, however, this ore is very dense and it is almost always composed of water molecules, it is a high-density compressed hydrated crystal, if it is turned into a liquid state, its volume will expand fifty to a hundred times. If it is placed in an ultra-low temperature environment, it will absorb the ice in the environment, integrate into it, and slowly "expand", so it can be said that it is an excellent spar for water storage. For the long journeys of the fleet really played a big role.
The other white ore is indeed an energy-type ore, which can excite a cold light source, and the objects illuminated by this cold beam will be frozen instantly.
Previously, there were only cold beam guns and airborne cold beam guns, but there were no more lethal cold beam weapons suitable for installation on starships, but this white ore can achieve that effect, and the technical team is preparing to use this ore to develop new cryogenic weapons.
Except for this place, the ore energy of the other squads is almost the same as the previous one, so the gray cat doesn't even bother to lick it in the back, it is already tired.
Now that they already know the location of the ore, everyone is very excited, but Xilin did not participate in mining but returned to the starship to sleep for two days, and the absorbed energy has a great impact on the chip in the body.
Shawton had already reported the matter of this planet to the home team, and the home team immediately sent someone to the planet marked by the astrological map given by Shawton. What Team Six has to do now is to wait while mining, and when the people from the home team come, they will hand over the planet to them, and then proceed to the next step, the task planned by the Z star sector has not yet been completed, although these energy ores are enough for them to increase their influence in the vanguard, but they must continue to do what should be done.
I have to say that Shotton chose the right route when he chose the route in the first place, and they sailed until now, except for the first time when they encountered some of their kind on the periphery of the Z star sector, the further they went in, they would not encounter a single hunter group for a long time. No expedition like them has come to the planet now.
The Z star region is very large, what will happen in the future, how many sacrifices will be made after that, and how much harvest will be gained, no one can say, but no matter what, since you have chosen, you have to go on.
Taking advantage of this time, the logistics team members seized the time to replenish food. With energy and food supplies, it will be smoother on the later voyages.
Some technicians have deduced a conclusion based on some parameter changes: due to the effect of the energy field, there is a limit to the mining degree of energy ores, and there is a critical point in mining, that is, their equilibrium point, if this equilibrium point is broken, the planet will be chaotic, and people will not be able to stay on this planet for long. In severe cases, the planet will be downgraded from a level of habitability B to a level of C, and possibly even lower.
After two days of sleep, Sirin returned to the planet.
"Hey, Karry, where's that guy from Sirin?" Beaver asked. The man who had slept for two days was gone.
"That guy has recently become obsessed with parasites, and he and Enji went looking for them." The thought of those disgusting bugs made Kari shudder.
At this moment, Xilin was watching Enji dissect a crab, which he had encountered by chance by the green river, nearly five meters long, and covered with thick green hair. The gray cat was delightfully gnawing on the crab's huge claws.
Enji pulls a worm out of the crab's lungs.
"Yo, I didn't expect it to be." Enji smiled and pinched a bug out.
"I've only seen common crab parasites, and I haven't seen this before, but it should be about the same, and I can study it when I have time. This parasite has a high infection rate and degree of infection, they parasitize in the lungs, irritate and destroy the host's lung tissue, cause coughing, hemoptysis, and some even invade the brain to cause paralysis. ”
What Enji said was just ordinary, and the parasite he was carrying now was probably even more terrifying.
"We generally don't easily bring parasites to the starship, the danger factor is too high, once it can't be controlled, the entire starship may die, never underestimate this little thing."
As he spoke, both Sirin and Enji's communicators rang.
Xilin turned on the communicator, and Carry's big face appeared on it: "Xilin, the home team is here!" ”
