Leighton’s eyes literally swept from line to line. That’s his upgrade budget list. According to the latest price, he paid much less and doubled the credit.
And … a lot of things are out of stock.
"According to the grapevine, there is a new alien technology cracked in the institute. Didn’t you watch the news two days ago? According to those bullshit experts, artificial prosthesis technology will leap to a new level in three years. Now all manufacturers are researching and developing new technologies, and many existing old production lines will be transformed into new equipment production lines … But you also know that we can’t afford to reduce the old supply of new equipment, and the existing models and accessories have all increased in price. "
The pink explosive head twisted its wrist, and the rusty metal parts immediately gave off a toothache friction.
"… under normal circumstances, this price can’t be so outrageous. There must be profiteers hoarding goods and shit!" Leighton said indignantly that if he waited for a year and a half before putting it on the market, the price of the old model would naturally fall, but the problem is that he can’t wait now-he can’t run around with an external pool all day, can he? Besides, Leighton’s physical strength will be greatly reduced without that mechanical arm, let alone exploring the ruins. Even it is difficult for the wilderness to protect itself.
"What can I do? There are letters in people’s accounts. "Pink explosive head sighed." Do you think it should be a relic hunter? "
"Yes," Kelan nodded. There’s nothing to hide about this kind of thing. You can find it by checking it casually.
"Your income is not low. It is estimated that the wages of wage earners like me are not enough for a few years …"
"Then you still have money to drink?" There is a bottle of 150 ml of "Roland brand malt brewed" on the table of Kelan’s pink explosion head. Although the price of beer is cheaper than that of white wine, this weight is already more than that of Kelan’s three glasses.
"Anyway, I can’t see the hope of mixing day by day." The pink bomber shrugged his shoulders. "Who knows if the sky will suddenly hang up? If the money in my pocket is not spent, wouldn’t it be a loss?"
"What about your family?" Kelan asked Ark, people born in a cultivation center like him are still a few, and most of them still maintain the human family structure.
"There was a sister who saved ten years for her genetic modification surgery, but she was cheated by a black-hearted biological company. The operation failed and she died." The pink explosive head sounded extremely indifferent, as if the dead person was not his sister but a stranger.
"Er … I haven’t known your name for a long time." Kelan hurriedly changed the subject.
"Bater, if you think it’s okay to call me Laoba," Bater glanced at the advertising curtain wall in the distance. "It’s getting late. It’s time to go and go to sea early in the morning."
"out to sea?" Koran leng a pair of Yu Fangzhou people this word is a bit strange.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you that I’m a boatman … not a spaceship, but one of those ships sailing in the sea." Bater grabbed the bottle and gulped it down. "Now you know … hic … what I’m going to spend all my money today?"
"… you said that the sea would not be Zhonghai, right?" There are two places in Alpha that are named simply and rudely-the one at the South Pole is called "polar sea" or "terminal sea" and the other is called "China Sea".
"Otherwise? The extreme sea can’t be a boat. "
As Bater said, it is impossible to sail in the polar sea. The whole ocean is covered with ice sheets more than ten meters thick, and even nuclear-powered icebreakers are hard to smash.
"Oh, by the way, there is also a group of hunters in this voyage. We found a relic in the middle of the sea, and they are going to explore this relic," Bater said suddenly.
"hmm? What remains can you talk about in detail? " Hearing the word ruins, Koran, Hound and Leighton instantly became interested.
For hunters, in addition to eating, the ability to receive and process information is also very important, especially those related to the remains of Alpha, which are always expensive to buy and may not be available.
"Boss!" The hound gave a finger ring, "Give this buddy a roasted leek and put it on our tab."
Bater immediately sat down and smiled a little greasy. "Hey, hey, can I have some more drinks?"
"Tell me first what kind of relic it is."
"… ok, I don’t know much … but it must be first-hand information" Bater’s mysterious way "that’s a city …"
"city?" Kelan and the hound looked at each other and saw a little surprise from each other’s eyes.
The ruins at this level of the city are definitely super-large ruins, and the level will never be low.
"to the city!" Bater licked some chapped lips and continued, "The city should have been built as a small island in the middle of the sea, but I don’t know why the island sank into the underwater island, and the city naturally became a city under the sea …"
"How big is this city?" Asked the hound
"I don’t know the exact size, but I remember that it took us a week to complete a circle during the survey, and the voyage had to be 100 nautical miles."
"It’s a big guy!" Leighton said some excitedly.
"But there are a lot of sea animals in Na Pianhai, and we suffered less than a dozen attacks and killed several people … because a group of water hunters didn’t come alive … I advise you not to take this job," Bater said earnestly.
Chapter 42 Not an illusion
"China sea animals are deep sea, aren’t they? How can I attack you in the shallow sea? " The hound was puzzled.
"I said it’s Na Pianhai territory … no matter the deep sea and shallow sea are close to the ocean monument, those sea animals will attack … how can I say it? It feels like being tamed as a watchdog." Bater searched for a long time to squeeze out such a metaphor as "watchdog"
"It’s really possible." Koran nodded. In the ruins A-7, they encountered those cleft jawworms, which are the "guards" in the ruins of Afar people. This is not a case. Many ruins have this phenomenon, but hunters don’t watch dogs to shape those creatures, but refer to them as "relics guards."
Generally speaking, the guards outside the ruins will clean up a fighter squad by direct attack, and the firepower will be enough to kill the guards in the ruins department, so it is necessary for the hunters to face it themselves.
However, in this special situation in ocean monument, it is difficult for the strike force to play the role of the ship’s own weapon and it is too heavy. Whether it is torpedo or deep-water bomb, it can not only effectively destroy the target, but also easily wave to the remains. It is no wonder that their ship will suffer such casualties.
"Words that ruins have registered to the hunter network? What’s the number? " Leighton finger stop PAD screen surface asked
"The serial number … ah … I think it seems … it seems to be A-91?"
"No, it’s not this A-91 Relin area. It’s not the underwater city you said." Leighton glanced at it and shook his head.
"Wrong wrong … that … that try 94 … a-94! It should be this right! "
The number "A-94" was entered in the Leighton search bar, and it was finally right this time … However, the hunter network’s exploration record of this relic was completely unintelligible except for its location.
"Yeah … is this that no one has been in yet?" The hound rubbed his stubble with his mouth and fingers. "It’s a tricky virgin land."
"Didn’t I say … a group of water people didn’t come back, how can there be any record?" Bater said while chewing roasted leeks.
"If you don’t have a record of exploration, you can directly evaluate A-level old dogs. You know what I mean …" Kelan’s tone was a little heavy.
"Psst … I know …" Although the hound didn’t say it, it was clear to everyone in the field except Bater’s that the A-level ruins have great potential to rise to S-level or even SS-level.
In the past 50 years, a total of 19 A-level relics were evaluated, and 17 of them were finally classified as S-level, and three of them were once upgraded to SS-level, but they were later reduced to S-level for some reasons, making SS-level relics still in a state of deficiency.
It is extremely painful to pay for an S-class relic in human exploration, but what is excavated in every S-class relic is enough to raise the level of human science and technology to a new level-if it is changed to a better understanding, it is that every S-class relic has no less influence on human culture than an Einstein-class great man.
And these things are just the tip of the iceberg exposed by S-class relics.
It has been asserted by some scholars that if human beings can fully analyze all the things excavated from the existing 17 S-class ruins, they will not be able to restore 30% technology of Alpha … This is enough to make human literature progress for 2000 years.
"If this is another S-class relic, it is estimated that many people will die." Leighton sighed and dropped the PAD screen.
"But if it is really rated as S-class, there must be a lot of hunters squeezing their heads … everyone will feel that they are the lucky few." The hound picked his teeth with a steel thumb nail playing with a bunch of meat.
"You don’t want to go, do you?" Bater’s stare big eyes even stopped moving his mouth.
"That depends." Kelan tapped on the table. "What would you like to drink, Ba?"
"ah! Si Nuo brand cold beer is the best! There is no Si Nuo dialect, and the blue Islander will do! " Bater’s eyes flashed up and she made a swallowing movement.
