The so-called flying stars are small planets that have no regular movement.
As a super large planet, Elam is surrounded by hundreds of flying stars, forming an extremely magnificent flying star belt.
When you jump from other planets into the Elam star domain through space, looking from a distance, you may even feel that Elam star and the flying star belt around it have turned into a small galaxy.
Although the hundreds of flying stars around Elam are all numbered, most of them are still in an undeveloped state.
Because there are a large number of alien life forms on the flying stars, people call them alien beasts.
Alien beasts are not ordinary beasts. They are monsters that feed on alien metals and have the ability to evolve. Even high-level alien beasts can produce considerable intelligence.
If it weren't for the fact that the alien beasts had not developed their own technology, these monsters that also like to feed on humans would most likely have directly invaded the human planet.
There are alien beasts on all the flying stars around Elan. The difference lies in the number.
Flying Star No. 79 is a newly developed flying star. The Elan Star Military Department established a beachhead base on the flying star and barely maintained an area for human star soldiers to live.
It is difficult to complete a quick survey of a new star with the strength of the military alone. At this time, the value of mercenaries is fully reflected.
Mercenaries can take away 90% of the profits gained during the development stage of the new star, and only need to hand over 10%. This is an irresistible temptation for most mercenary organizations.
Any mercenary organization or individual, as long as they register with the military department, can follow the military warships to land on the 79th flying star regularly.
Qin Xiao seized this opportunity and decided to come to No. 79 Flying Star to look for steel-rock exotic metals.
The reason why he dared to take risks was because he had been to Flying Star 79 before his rebirth and fought here for a full year.
The first piece of steel, rock and exotic metal on the No. 79 flying star was captured by Qin Xiao's original unit.
Yes, capture, not mine.
Steel rock alien metal is not a conventional alien metal, it is a more biological alien metal, so much so that it has already turned into a beast.
The steel-rock alien metal moves on its own and is extremely sensitive to fluctuations in star power.
At that time, Qin Xiao's army gathered all the strength of the army and spent several months before finally coming up with the best means and tools to capture steel, rock and exotic metals.
Traps and fishing nets…
Facts have proved that it doesn’t matter if the trick is good, it just needs to be useful.
The veins of steel-rock exotic metals are in the medium-risk area of Meteor 79. Although Qin Xiao is very familiar with the terrain of Meteor 79, he still does not dare to go deep alone.
For this reason, Qin Xiao found a mercenary mission that best suited his current situation and drew a map.
Because large warships cannot fly within the flying star belt, and various aircraft are very likely to be attacked by alien beasts with the ability to fly.
Therefore, the map drawing work in the new star development stage has always been completed by mercenary organizations.
Qin Xiao temporarily joined a mercenary group named Hui Ge. The Hui Ge mercenary group was very famous on Elan.
It has become a B-level mercenary group many years ago, and it is currently the most promising existence among the B-level mercenary group to hit the A-level.
Qin Xiao was assigned to a team of ten, which was a temporary team.
Except for the team leader who was a veteran of the Hui Ge mercenary group, all other team members were temporarily recruited.
Qin Xiao is the weakest in the team. The other nine people are all at the first level of the Lianxing Realm. The team leader's strength has reached the third level of the Lianxing Realm.
Everyone in the armored vehicle is carefully checking their equipment. They will soon be sent to an unexplored medium-risk area, and the road ahead can only be solved with their legs.
Team leader Guo Zhen approached Qin Xiao and asked, "How are you, are you nervous?"
"Still... quite nervous." Qin Xiao changed his words temporarily as he spoke. He wanted to say it was okay, but he didn't want people to think he was exaggerating.
Guo Zhen patted him on the shoulder and said: "Don't act like a hero after you start taking action. Any minor accident may result in death."
"This is not a hyperspace battlefield. If you die, you will die. I won't give you a chance to come back."
The last words were spoken by Guo Zhen to everyone in the carriage. He was very easy-going and didn't look like a mercenary at all.
It's no wonder that he gave this advice. Their team is surprisingly young. Except for Qin Xiao, the others are only in their early twenties.
The most common mistake young people make is to underestimate the enemy, especially those young warriors who have experienced in the super-dimensional battlefield.
Sure enough, Guo Zhen's instructions did not receive any response, and several people even rolled their eyes with disdain.
Seeing their performance, Qin Xiao subconsciously stopped treating them as comrades-in-arms.
It is better to expect them to provide assistance to you at critical moments than to expect your genes to mutate when danger arises.
There were still fifty kilometers away from the destination, so Qin Xiao took advantage of the last moment to continuously adjust the mechanical light armor on his body.
For this operation, Qin Xiao, with the help of Xiao Zhuer, directly entered the weapons warehouse of the Elan Star Military Headquarters to select equipment.
There is no problem with holding weapons or throwing weapons. Qin Xiao knows the situation of the alien beasts on the 79th flying star very well, and he chooses the weapons that are most effective here.
Only the mechanical light armor was the one he was most dissatisfied with and worried about the most.
Mechanical light armor is different from large-scale mechas. Because the light armor is completely made of different metals, its biological characteristics are extremely obvious. In other words, the light armor can even be understood as a living mecha.
There will be a mental resonance between the mechanical light armor and the star core of the star warrior. The closer this resonance is, the more obvious the effect the light armor can exert.
The mechanical light armor Qin Xiao wore was temporarily taken from the military arsenal. Not only was it of low quality, but more importantly, the mental resonance between him and the light armor was very weak.
It is possible that this mechanical light armor cannot fully unleash Qin Xiao's strength. Qin Xiao can only try his best to adjust it to increase the frequency of mental resonance.
"Get out of the car and start moving."
As the armored vehicle stopped, Guo Zhen gave an order and rushed out with everyone.
As if they were afraid of being attacked by a strange beast that suddenly jumped out, the armored vehicle drove away as soon as the person was put down.
"Check the star power radar and magnetic radar." Guo Zhen said in the communicator while looking around.
Although it had been inspected many times before, Qin Xiao still conducted the last inspection rigorously.
As for the other young stars, most of them glanced at them symbolically, with impatient expressions on their faces.
Seeing this, Guo Zhen didn't bother to give any more instructions. He reiterated the action plan and let everyone split up.
Qin Xiao was the first to leave, heading due north. The steel rock exotic metal veins were to the north of Flying Star No. 79, so he was heading north for sure.
When Qin Xiao left, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at him.
The changes in their eyes were relatively uniform, and they all looked at Qin Xiao's back like a fool.
The reason is simple. The weapons Qin Xiao carries are really weird.
He carried a crescent-shaped long knife on his back. The widest part of the blade was a foot long, and the length of the knife was nearly two meters.
He was carrying a long knife on his back, and the heavy blade seemed like it could knock Qin Xiao down at any time.
Although Qin Xiao is nearly two meters tall, carrying such a big knife still looks very awkward.
This sword is called Zangetsu Sword, and now almost no one would choose this weapon on the battlefield.
But that's not the strangest thing.
In addition to the long sword, he also carried two Tang swords on his back, and the handles of the Tang swords were on his left shoulder. The Tang swords and the Zangetsu sword formed an irregular cross.
This is not over yet, Qin Xiao has a crossbow inserted outside his left thigh, and a quiver tied outside his right thigh.
Qin Xiao now seems to be a warrior who came out of ancient legends.
It's a pity that such a simple style did not shock people. Instead, it was ridiculed by other mercenaries because it was incompatible with modern warfare.
"Stop laughing and act quickly!" Guo Zhen stopped the others from laughing.
After everyone left, Guo Zhen's face was full of doubts.
"None of his weapons seem to have star power fluctuations. Are they not star energy weapons that imitate ancient weapons, but real traditional weapons?"
When he was puzzled, he lowered his head and glanced at the star power radar in his hand, and his eyes suddenly widened.
"What happened? Why did he walk so fast?"
According to the display on the Xingli radar, Qin Xiao was moving at a high speed at the moment, as if he was running desperately.
With his fifth-level Star Casting Realm strength, it would be difficult to sustain such a speed. Once exhausted, he would not be able to fight back when encountering an enemy.
"Qin Xiao, slow down and don't lose touch with the team." Upon seeing this, Guo Zhen quickly reminded through the communicator.
"Okay, received."
Qin Xiao's crisp reply came from the other end of the communicator, but before Guo Zhen could relax, he discovered that Qin Xiao's speed had become even faster!
"Do you think my words are farts?" Guo Zhen continued to warn.
"Report to captain, I am within the radar detection range and have not left the team." Qin Xiao's crisp voice came back from the communicator again.
After that, Qin Xiao simply stopped answering any warnings.
"Damn, what the hell is this!" Guo Zhen cursed angrily. He, who was always good-tempered, was furious when he saw Qin Xiao doing this.
"It's best to die immediately, so as not to drag down other teammates!" Guo Zhen cursed angrily.
In the end, he simply stopped paying attention to Qin Xiao and began to carefully observe the star power fluctuations on the star power radar, ready to assist other team members at all times.
As the captain of this mecha team, what Guo Zhen wants to do is to protect the safety of all team members as much as possible, rather than looking after a certain thorn.
But just as Guo Zheng started to think this way, Qin Xiao's voice came from the communicator.
"Report, coordinates -32, 127, enemy appears, unknown beast, strength level one, number thirteen."
This was the first enemy attack report since their mecha team performed its mission. Although the other team members had not encountered the enemy yet, they all became nervous because of Qin Xiao's report.
Guo Zhen, who just a moment ago was thinking about Qin Xiao dying, immediately replied after hearing the report: "Don't panic, I'll..."
But before he could finish speaking, Qin Xiao's voice came from the communicator again.
"Report, no support needed."
