Chapter 6 Out to Sea
While he was thinking nonsense, Ruolan spoke: "This is what you call the effect of genetic optimization, it doesn't seem to be very good!" ”
Yun Haoyu was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why do you say that?" I think it's very good, I feel like I've never been in such a good state as I am now! ”
"People in my generation will use secret methods and pills to refine their bodies and strengthen their roots and bones when they get started!" Ruolan said disapprerovingly, "If you meet someone with good qualifications, there will be elders who will spend their own mana to wash their I Ching!" I don't know what the effect of the three-level optimization you are talking about, but it is not much stronger based on the current situation! Compared to our methods, it is really not worth mentioning! ”
She may be right. "I wonder if you have a better proposal?" Yun Haoyu asked with some hesitation.
"I have an idea, but your current foundation is still too bad, so let's optimize it to level four first!"
"You said it lightly, it costs hundreds of millions of credits!" Yun Haoyu was a little embarrassed.
"Don't you have a way to make money? If you go to that place a few more times, won't you have the money? Without waiting for him to speak, Ruolan said again: "I know what you're worried about, as long as I'm here, those miscellaneous fish and shrimp won't dare to trouble you, don't worry!" ”
"yes, why didn't I think of that?" Yun Haoyu remembered the situation at the bottom of the sea that day, when Ruolan appeared, how far those murderous creatures ran away, and after he woke up, he took the opportunity to catch a lot of prey that had no time to escape.
If this can be done every time in the future, not to mention the cost of Level 3 optimization, even Level 4 can also be targeted! Thinking of this, his eyes lit up! You can try it tomorrow! It won't be long before you get your wish!
I didn't say anything all night, and I waited until dawn. After washing up in a hurry and eating something indiscriminately, I rushed out the door and flagged down a self-driving taxi and headed straight for the port.
On the docks, the drunkard Frude is beckoning his men to board the ship and make the final preparations before the sea! The crew members were all in good spirits, venting in alcohol and women for most of the night, but they were not tired at all, and they had to admit that these guys were more energetic than they imagined!
"Have you all arrived?" The captain asked his first mate.
"There are only thirty-four divers left today," replied the first mate, "two of them were slightly injured yesterday, and I am afraid that they will not be able to come for a few days, and a few have been dug up by other captains!" It's said that the price we opened was too low! ”
"Let's go! Wait until you come back this time to recruit a few more people. The captain said disapprovingly.
The sailors put away the iron anchor, and the ship slowly started. At this moment, a handsome boy with black eyes and short hair rushed over, with a slight force under his feet, a front flip, and jumped over the railing and fell to the boat with a "whew", the whole action was neat! At this time, the side of the ship was already seven or eight meters away from the shore! He immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Brother Hao, why are you here today?" Someone recognized him.
"Of course, it's going out to sea to catch fish! What else can you do? Yun Haoyu replied with a smile.
Frude also saw him, and asked cheerfully, "Didn't you kid always come only on weekends?" How did you make an exception today! Is it a lack of money to spend? I remember you made a fortune last time!"
"I guess it's all spent on women!" Someone next to him quipped. A bunch of sailors giggled and joked! The ship left the harbor and headed out for the vast sea......
On the sea, the blue sun has already emerged, the inky blue sky is slowly turning to light blue, and the three moons have set near the horizon, and a new day has come.
Today's sea is calm and the sea is moving smoothly.
Every day, hundreds of ships like this go to sea! Everyone's goal is the same, for all kinds of scarce resources on the ocean floor.
Since the large-scale development of Twilight, this has become a unique sight for the entire galaxy. For no other reason, the creatures of this planet are too fierce, so fierce that most of the conventional weapons of the Emperor ** team are helpless.
If you want to collect resources in such a place, you obviously can't automate the operation! Ordinary robots go down to deliver food, and the cost is unacceptable with high-level robots!
It's not like the scientists of the Empire haven't tried to clone these creatures, but for some unknown reason, cloning technology doesn't work here. The cloned individuals are all flawed to a greater or lesser extent, and they simply do not meet the needs. In desperation, there is no choice but to exchange human lives for resources!
For decades, how many people have died at the bottom of this planet, some people have counted, it will not be less than eight figures, of course, this is nothing, as long as you can get enough resources!
Anyway, in the eyes of the upper echelons of the empire, these low-grade genetic people are the cheapest consumables, and they don't feel distressed about the number of dead or injured!
Soon to the target sea. The first officer's subordinates began to make various preparations and distribute equipment to the divers.
At this time, you can see how each person's interpersonal relationship is. It's going to happen, and the people who usually keep the equipment on the ship, the equipment issued to you at this time is the best!
If you don't get the idea, you may have some problems with the equipment you are given, for example, the pointer on the oxygen cylinder is full and the weight is not abnormal, but in fact it is only three-quarters or even less.
There is some noise in the underwater communication system, and it may fail at a critical moment. Only the top layer of the compressed nutrient is genuine, but the bottom layer has inexplicably turned into plain water, and it may still smell of urine! Small underwater thrusters can stall at a critical moment!
Of course, they will pat your chest and promise you, and even swear in the name of their grandmother that there will be no major problems with these equipment, and that they will not affect your actions!
As for whether you will have an accident under the sea because of these problems, or you will not be able to come back at all! They don't care, it's just your own luck, and they don't have half a credit to do with it!
Yun Haoyu finally checked the diving suit and began to put it on. He understands the shady scene of this, so every time he goes to sea, he will quietly give them a credit for "filial piety". So what he got was basically one of the best gear on board!
His life mattered, even if he was dissatisfied, he didn't want to make trouble with them in this kind of matter.
The high-frequency sonic bomb is dropped! A minute later, the divers began to enter the water in turn. He was in the middle, and when it was his turn, the first mate patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother Hao, I don't know how many surprises you can bring us this time, we are looking forward to it!" ”
Yun Haoyu smiled and didn't say anything. Loosen the steel handrail on the side of the boat and let yourself sink into the water.
The world beneath the surface of the water is silent. Away from the intrigues on the water, my mood began to become cheerful.
He adjusted his position and slowly dived to the bottom of the sea. The quality of this double-layer pressure-resistant wetsuit is still good, and you can be guaranteed to move freely in the water at a depth of no more than 500 meters, as long as you don't get targeted by those damn things!
Finally went down to the bottom of the sea, stayed in place for a while, and waited until the body adjusted. He just started looking around for a suitable target.
Although it is not at this depth in the sun, there are many glowing creatures living in the sea, and with improved vision, it is not difficult to see the surroundings clearly. I have to say that the underwater scenery of this planet is still very good, if it is not too dangerous, it can be developed into a tourist attraction!
Lots of creatures that can't be named come and go! Transparent coral-like creatures can be seen everywhere, sky blue stones, colorful shells.
Dozens of meters tall among the seaweeds are dotted with pale blue fluorescent creatures the size of a finger. The scientific name is "Mirror Sand", which is extremely precious! They can be used to craft expensive energy potions, and some of the big chaebols use them to decorate rooms.
Of course, this kind of thing is extremely difficult to deal with, if you just rush to reach out and grab it, it will release countless crystal filaments in an instant to tie you into a big zongzi, these hair-thin things have unimaginable tenacity, some experts have done experiments, under the pull of hundreds of tons, the structure of these crystal filaments can still remain stable! If you are entangled, there is basically no possibility of survival!
Two brindled shrimp dangling beside a boulder. The rocks were full of holes the size of a human head, several of which spewed out red mist-like stuff from time to time, and occasionally a slender tongue loomed! It was the nest of the Blueback Blood-streaked Anacon, ranked ninth among the top ten murderous creatures of the Twilight Star!
Slowly leaning over, he took out a metal tube the thickness of a finger, pressed the excitation button on the tube a few meters away from them, and a red projectile shot out rapidly, and before the two little things could react, they turned into a fine metal mesh and firmly wrapped them in it and couldn't move!
Putting the loot into the eco-box, he turned his head and saw that in the deep hole, a strange-shaped snake head the size of a bowl was staring at him coldly! The snake's head was full of blood-red markings, and there were no pupils in its long narrow eyes, only a circle of miserable whiteness! It looks hideous!
It's really not pleasant to be stared at by such a devilish beast! He carefully controlled the thruster and swam away as fast as possible, but fortunately, the murderous thing did not chase it out, which should be the credit of Ruolan!
In fact, Ruolan's existence can only ensure that these things will not take the initiative to come to him for trouble, if he doesn't run to provoke them and provoke them, and fight with him, it will definitely make him unable to eat and walk around!
The things he can do now are those creatures that are not very strong, such as red-eyed sea urchin insects and the like. There are also silver threads, tiger seaflowers, and spotted shellfish......
These things are average in their own strength, and in the past, it was just because they were too close to those murderous creatures, so that no one dared to covet them, but now he doesn't have to be afraid! You can scavenge as much as you want!
On the sea, the drunken captain is chatting with the first mate.
"This month is coming to an end, and I'm going to prepare filial piety for those big people again!" The captain said with some pain.
"There's no way around it, if you want to be comfortable in this industry, how can you do it without some blood?" The first mate was also helpless. They have been doing this business for more than a day or two, and they naturally know the rules, due to the high risk of this industry, the dead have become commonplace, if you don't feed those officials of all sizes, as well as the head of the **, maybe one day there will be trouble at the door!
As long as all aspects of the relationship are in place, even if the dead person only needs a symbolic pension to settle it. This is the unspoken rule that every captain who goes out to sea to make a living understands!
Others see that these captains are very beautiful, and they don't have to go into the water themselves, as long as they provide basic equipment, they can recruit some people and wait to count the money.
In fact, the booty they collected could only be sold to the designated masters at a price lower than the market price, and the captain had to pay his own men. The casualty rate of divers is extremely high, the loss of equipment is staggering, and new diving equipment must be purchased on a constant basis.
There is also the maintenance of the ship, all aspects are combined, and the captain's income is not as high as imagined! After going to sea for so many years, the captain only earned four villas, married two wives, and made up the cost of third-level genetic optimization for himself and his wife, but did not have much savings.
Although they go to sea every day, they are afraid and tired to death, but they are not the ones who can really make money! Nor the big and small officials on the shore, the gang leaders, but the big pharmaceutical companies.
Every company of sufficient size has its own fishing fleet, experimental base and processing plant on the planet. And their own secret armament!
Every day, the trophies of the fleet will be sent to the factory to refine the active ingredients, processed into various expensive medicines, and then sold to the major star fields under the rule of the empire, and even alien civilizations! Biopharmaceuticals have become the economic pillar of Twilight Star and even Henglos Star Field!
"Miscellaneous troops" like Captain Frude, their harvest will eventually be sold to them at low prices through various channels, and these "miscellaneous troops" ship several times their own fleet every day, without their existence, the annual performance statements of these large companies can be "miserable"!
The economic prosperity of Twilight Star is supported by the lives of these people at the bottom, and every credit is stained with the blood of divers! But compared to their efforts, their income is really not worth mentioning. The heads of the big corporations are the real ones who control the economic lifeblood of the planet!
Yun Haoyu was wandering under the sea, and the ecological box was already half stuffed with loot.
Those murderous creatures that he usually avoids and are afraid of all "ignore" his existence, all because of Ruolan, although there is not much mana left, but the kind of coercion from the quasi-saint makes him a demon that must not be provoked in the perception of many murderous creatures!
So he was very relaxed, and while he was looking for prey, he also had the leisure to think, "Will you come down with the camera next time?" The scenery here is very good, if it is edited and processed into a documentary, maybe it will be very popular? ”
"Maybe I should talk to the people at the media companies and make a couple of episodes of Underwater Adventures? The ratings won't be low......"
Suddenly, there was a scream from the communication channel, and it was estimated that which guy was entangled in something terrible! After hesitating, he gave up his plan to go over and take a look. It's not that he's cold-blooded, it's that such an act doesn't make sense at all. After entering the sea, divers will choose a piece of operation area, which is at least 100 meters away from each other, or even thousands of meters.
When you find a location and rush over, you will probably only see a certain murderous creature walking with its teeth after eating! After a moment of silence for his hapless companion, he resumed his search for prey. In this kind of place, compassion doesn't mean anything, and thank God for being able to protect yourself!
There were still two hours before the end of the day, and the eco-box was already full. He could have gone up and down after delivery, but he didn't want to be too conspicuous. The prey in the eco-box is also deliberately selected to ensure that the total value does not exceed one million.
If it were up to his temperament, it was estimated that the harvest of all his other companions would not be as good as his alone, and the captain's liquidity in the bank account would be squeezed out by him at one time!
It's hard to predict what the consequences will be! Maybe the jealous and irrational crew will strip him naked and throw him into the sea to feed the fish! Even the captain is afraid that he will have the intention of killing people and overselling goods! So it never hurts to keep a low profile.
As the sun sets, it's time to return home. Thirty-three of the thirty-five people who went down this time came back, which was a relatively lucky day. When it was time to count the harvest, despite his mental preparations, the drunkard captain was still taken aback by Yun Haoyu's results!
Ten tigers slaughtered sea flowers, fifteen spotted shellfish, and twenty red-eyed sea urchin insects. That's millions of credits! This kid's luck is too good, isn't it?
Yun Haoyu felt regretful, and the whole boat stared at him with a monster-like look. Perhaps, he is still too flamboyant? Next time, I'll have to keep a low profile.
In fact, it's no wonder that everyone reacts like this, even if they are very experienced divers, they can only bring back about 100,000 prey worth about 100,000 at a time, and their luck may only be 30,000 or 50,000, and even when they return empty-handed!
Of course, those who are so lucky that they even have their lives are needless to say! It's not that there are examples like Yun Haoyu, but that's something that only a supernatural is capable of.
In the end, Frude was more determined, took out the captain's majesty to calm everyone's emotions, and announced that everyone would be invited to drink in the evening, so that Yun Haoyu could get out!
"In the future, once a week, one million income, ten times, you can go for a three-level optimization surgery. As for the cost of level four, it will take two years, and there is no guarantee that there will be any changes in the middle! Isn't it too slow? ”
In the bar, Yun Haoyu was secretly thinking to himself while fighting with them, "Perhaps, we should find a bigger company again, even if we harvest more points each time, it will not be so noticeable, so that we can achieve our goals faster!" ”
With his mind set up, he put his mind down and began to concentrate on the dishes on the table!
