Fifteen minutes have passed since the news from the Circular Falcon reached the Leonin on the other side of the Sequoia star system.
Staring at the incredible scene in the light curtain, the three people in the cockpit of the Leonin were so shocked that they could not speak for a long time.
Just ten minutes after the Circular Falcon received Mrs. Farrier's reply——
The interstellar space above the scavenger ship suddenly split open!
A huge bloody mouth opened like a ghost swallowing it.
A dry, dark humanoid arm stretched out from the bloody crack, as if it had traveled through infinite time, space, and infinite years, carrying the sorrow and vast silent pressure of ancient times.
The spiritual pressure detected by the spacecraft instantly exceeded one hundred levels!
Time and space freeze.
The giant withered hands grabbed the hull of the Round Falcon and slowly dragged it into the space crack.
The cracks disappear.
The stars are bright and the interstellar space is empty, as if the Circular Falcon has never been there.
Lu Chen didn't understand what was going on.
He sensed that the crew was under psychic attack, but felt something was wrong.
"Is this... Netherworld?"
Netherworld, the out-of-control ghost demon, a monster that loses human intelligence and devours all living things.
Mental attack, devouring spiritual power, abyss cracks... these are the three characteristics of the out-of-control ghost.
Gloria has the most say in this regard.
"Don't look at me. I don't know what it is, but that hand is definitely not Netherworld."
She frowned, as if she wanted to say something, but suddenly remained silent. She picked up the tea cup and lowered her head to drink tea.
On the other side.
Sirius covered his head, cowering in fear, his eyes turned white, and he instantly lost consciousness.
He looked like he was completely controlled by the seal of his thoughts, but he was too scared to stand up.
Lu Chen quickly fed Ai Li a few healing pills before she fainted.
After carrying Ai Li to the room to rest, Lu Chen quickly returned to the cockpit.
Standing in front of the airbag-wrapped cat cage, he could no longer look directly at the black cat.
"The giant hand that tore apart space just now has a very solid dry body, and it doesn't look like a ghost..."
Lu Chen was very confused.
Gloria shrugged and guessed casually:
"Maybe it's someone who wants to control Netherworld? The universe is so big, and there are many perverts."
She held a teacup and drank tea, too lazy to think too much.
"Don't worry too much. If it is the only beast in the universe infected by the poison, it is normal for this kind of thing to happen."
Lu Chen nodded and frowned:
"It seems that this demonized black cat is indeed a lost experimental subject, but it may not be the only one.
The experimental organization behind it is very powerful. I guess the black cat was probably stolen first and then lost halfway.
Moreover, Ellie's sudden loss of control is very unusual and may be related to her atavistic physique and mental seal.
I have never heard of the orcs returning to their ancestors before. We have only heard relevant news in the past few years, right?
Could it be that before beasts become demons, they must first go through a demonization process to cultivate their spiritual intelligence? "
Gloria didn't understand what Lu Chen was saying at all.
In her opinion, compared to the gods and gods in the universe, Lu Chen is the weirdest person.
"The universe is too big. There are all kinds of monsters and monsters. Mysterious events happen every day. It's useless to think too much. It's useful to become stronger.
Think about it, are you venturing out to sea to make money or to explore the universe?
You should be glad that you let someone else collect the reward on your behalf instead of receiving the reward yourself, otherwise you would be dead now.
Are you not happy at all to escape the disaster? "
Lu Chen looked up at Gloria and shook his head blankly.
No……
Ahem.
He quickly explained:
"What kind of luck is this? I predicted it in advance. It's not just luck."
Gloria smiled and drank tea. The tea was at the bottom. She took off the wine bottle from her waist and took a sip.
"How does it feel for your first Pangu adventure? There are always accidents happening here. It's exciting, right?"
Lu Chen really didn't expect that he would encounter a monster over level 100 when he chose the simplest cat-hunting mission!
He has just stepped into Novice Village!
The universe is so exciting...
But dangerous? nonexistent.
"Well enough."
Lu Chen's face didn't look afraid at all, but rather a bit of suppressed excitement.
Gloria glanced at him and felt that he was pretending to be calm.
"Do you still want to take the cat with you to the Bailu?"
"certainly."
Lu Chen looked determined and added another sentence.
"I have to sell this precious treasure at a good price!"
"now it's right!"
Gloria leaned next to Lu Chen, forced the bottle of wine she drank from into Lu Chen's mouth, and gave him a few sips of wine.
"This is our captain."
When Lu Chen wasn't paying attention, he moved his hands up and down, and quietly took off the storage bag from Lu Chen's waist.
"The captain of the scavenger boat is a drunkard. There is no way he doesn't have good wine on him!"
As a result, Gloria was messing around, her thoughts were flying around, and she couldn't open the storage bag.
Even if you tear it with your hands... you still can't tear it apart.
Lu Chen wiped the wine juice and Gloria's succubus saliva from the corners of his mouth, and looked at her as if she were a fool.
Gloria struggled for a long time, punching and kicking the storage bag, chanting spells randomly, and she was soaked in sweat without even opening it.
It made her very embarrassed.
In the end, he had to return the storage bag to Lu Chen.
By the way, he took back her wine bottle and said sadly:
"Why are you just looking at me? If you have the guts, come and open it."
Lu Chen shook his head and looked at the storage bag.
A palm-sized pouch, a soft bag made of some kind of animal skin, with complex defensive spiritual patterns engraved on the surface, but it was damaged.
There are also more stable space spiritual patterns inside.
This is the first time Lu Chen has seen this kind of ancient storage bag.
Even old-fashioned storage bags have password locks.
The spiritual consciousness of modern practitioners is very weak, and it is difficult to identify and unlock the coded spiritual patterns, and they cannot forcibly break through the space formation.
Unless you meet a truly strong person, it is almost impossible to solve.
Lu Chen used the detection ability of object recognition to detect the internal spiritual pattern structure of the storage bag, and then used his spiritual power to control the external spiritual pattern to correspond to it, and opened it easily.
There isn't much in the storage bag either.
More than two hundred spiritual stones.
A jar of aged wine.
A locator seems to be used by the Interstellar Scavengers Alliance to monitor the location of its star pirate ships.
Road dust immediately destroyed the locator!
He pocketed more than two hundred spirit stones.
In addition to the more than 800 spiritual stones that were previously searched, there are more than 1,100 spiritual stones in total!
After taking a look at the small jar of aging wine, I saw that the amulet on the outside was corroded and stuck to the jar body, making it difficult to identify.
[A jar of 800-year-old Emperor Star Begonia Red. 】
Lu Chen did a brief search on the Internet and found that this wine can now be sold for about a hundred spiritual stones.
Then he threw it to Gloria.
"Take it, I'll give you some spiritual stones later."
When Gloria got the wine, she raised the tip of her straight nose slightly and tasted it meaningfully:
"Emperor Star Begonia Red, although it is not yet a thousand years old, it is still a rare and good wine."
"..."
Lu Chen was speechless. This woman's dog nose was comparable to his ability to identify objects, and her ability was not on the right track.
Gloria did not open the lid and drink it immediately, but stored it away and prepared to taste it on a good day.
Lu Chen held an empty storage bag in his hand.
Strictly speaking, the memory space of this thing is small, it is troublesome to access items, the insurance effect is poor, and the space is unstable.
Lu Chen checked online and found that most of the ancient storage bags were reduced to decorations and collectibles and could only be sold for a few hundred spirit stones.
In the Age of Ending Law, the concentration of spiritual energy in the Milky Way is very low. It is difficult to maintain space spells by relying solely on spiritual energy and formations.
Large-scale space formations such as star gates and teleportation arrays rely on a mixture of psychic energy and annihilation level, and the smallest are planet-level existences.
Even warp engines driven by psychic and nuclear energy can only be as small as a house.
For example, the civilian storage bracelet developed by the Empire is said to use small ice cellar black hole technology and is bound to one's bloodline, spiritual veins and identity code in three layers. It is almost impossible for outsiders to open it. It can support a maximum cubic space of one meter by one meter. You can place a spiritual sword diagonally.
Unfortunately, the entry-level model alone consumes the spiritual energy of one hundred standard spirit stones every day to maintain its spatial stability, so it is destined to be just a luxury product.
Of course, there are military storage products with larger space, which are prohibited from export by the empire and are generally only equipped by senior officers.
Lu Chen really wants a large space for storage equipment, so that the scavenger armor can be transformed to be slimmer, more maneuverable, and the combat effectiveness will be directly improved... It is currently a delusion.
"Forget it, just keep the storage bag. It's okay to change it and add spiritual stones, elixirs, or a lightsaber hilt."
Except for the storage bag, low-level armor, spiritual swords and elixirs are not very valuable. Together they can be sold for a hundred spiritual stones.
Lu Chen had just stepped into the Pangu Corridor, but he did not become timid just because he was attacked by a level 100 monster.
He didn't even leave the Sequoia Star System.
There was also a black cat on board.
In this way, the Leonin swaggered and docked on a commercially developed planet.
Lu Chen left the black cat, the storage bag and Gloria's wine behind, and sold all the extra loot.
One hundred spirit stones were left for himself and Ai Li as backup.
As long as Gloria has wine.
The remaining nearly a thousand spirit stones were all replaced with marrow-cleansing pills, meridians-opening pills, and spirit-healing pills for practice.
"Cultivation cannot fall behind, pills are necessary for practice!"
Of course, the more important reason is that with the assistance of Gloria's magic blood, he can easily upgrade as long as he takes some pills, and the effect is immediate and unstoppable.
In addition, he also bought some cat food.
The monster is crazy with hunger, but it can eat people!
When Sirius woke up from bed, the Leonin had already left the Sequoia star system.
Lu Chen brought her a cup of sober black tea.
She took a sip of tea instinctively.
Wear silver-rimmed glasses.
Staring at Lu Chen.
Blinked.
A confused look on his face.
There was something dazed in his light blue eyes.
Only then did he regain some consciousness.
But when Lu Chen asked her about the giant hand before, she looked blank and had no memory at all.
She got up and went to the porthole, continuing to learn all kinds of ways to control spirits and study her glass box ecosystem.
People are a little bit wooden.
Lu Chen didn't ask any more questions.
A few days later.
The Leonin arrives in a new star system.
This time.
His treasure map finally responded!
