Chapter 135 Strange Ore

The three artificial humans were leaning silently against the wall, their expressions blank, looking like statues from afar. Their principle was to never do anything that wasted energy, because the nutrient solution for replenishing energy cost their master money to buy.

Fang Senyan gazed into the distance through the opening, watching the thunderstorms weave into a net, raging wantonly in the sky. Occasionally, a beam of light struck down, making people feel deep fear. A bolt of lightning even struck twenty or thirty meters away. Fang Senyan could clearly see the soil and plants being ruthlessly torn apart, thrown up, and then falling, leaving behind a deep brown pit seven or eight meters in diameter, with the mud churning.

Some trees were also struck by lightning, and although they continued to burn in the wind and rain, the flames were stubborn and flickering, tenaciously persisting, like an unextinguished beacon.

Fang Senyan had never imagined such a scene on Earth, let alone witnessed it. He suddenly thought of how great it would be if San Zai were here to see the many strange creatures on this planet!

San Zai was currently encountering the happiest embarrassment for a summoner, which was that his summoning abilities were more than sufficient, but... there weren't enough powerful creatures for him to contract! What a frustrating thing! This had become his biggest bottleneck.

Moreover, San Zai probably knew that Fang Senyan had brought him into the Ace Team and even provided him with a set of super-grade equipment, which undoubtedly put immense pressure on him. Even if others didn't say anything, they must have had reservations in their hearts. The equipment was indeed useless to them, but it could be exchanged for universal points to buy something useful! Yet he had always been on the periphery, contributing very little to the team, which made him very anxious.

Fortunately, both Reef and Zi had been team leaders and knew that the summoner class really required opportunity and luck. They might be unsuccessful for a long time, but once their luck turned, they would truly make people remember the saying, "Don't underestimate a youth because he is poor."

Just like the Metal Mentor's Iron Fanu, who had been suppressed at the bottom of the team, but was favored by a powerful spinosaurus and became the second most important person in the team!

So, the team was still very supportive of San Zai, and there were no complaints. But Fang Senyan knew that as the team leader, he couldn't allow this situation to continue for too long, because it would be very harmful to the team.

And now, with Fang Senyan's successful landing on the Upsilon Planet, and the possibility that he would encounter many powerful and terrifying creatures, it should be San Zai's best opportunity!

As long as Fang Senyan used "Ukiyo-e" to memorize the creatures he liked, he could bring them to San Zai. Then, there were only two possibilities: he could embrace them with open arms or... embrace them with weapons and skills. Either way, he wouldn't lose out.

At this time, Fang Senyan deeply felt why Ukiyo-e was a special reward for the Golden Branch mission! This thing didn't seem very useful, but when you actually used it, you would find that it was needed everywhere, because with Ukiyo-e, you had one more way to solve problems.

Now it seemed that the biggest shortcoming of Ukiyo-e was that it only had three uses. Hmm, there were only two left.

After thinking about San Zai's problem for a while, Fang Senyan suddenly remembered an important task for this trip, which the miner said had a good chance of being completed here. If he could complete the follow-up task, the Silver Series Hidden Branch Second Chapter: Injection, along the way, then he wouldn't have to separate from the team in the next world.

He was about to bring up the relevant tasks to study, but found that this silver series mission had changed at some point.

"Silver Series Hidden Branch Second Chapter: Injection has been triggered."

"Mission Description: You must inject energy into the liquid metal enhanced life within thirty days. In this world, there is a special mineral called Tearstone, whose non-metallic components are of great help to the division and proliferation of metal cells. You must obtain a certain amount of Tearstone to feed the liquid metal enhanced life. The more you feed, the higher the mission completion rating."

"Hint: The liquid metal enhanced life has an excellent sense of Tearstone, so when you approach this strange mineral, you will feel a feverish anomaly on its surface. The closer the distance, the higher the temperature."

Fang Senyan looked at this series of prompts and couldn't help but say in astonishment:

"This... Didn't the miner say it was speckled crystal? Why has it become Tearstone again?"

But reality was cruel, and Fang Senyan could only bear it silently.

From a more positive perspective, first of all, his wish had been fulfilled. At least he wouldn't have to separate from the team in the next world. Secondly, as long as he was unscrupulous, he could take advantage of other people's resources to help, such as Aldaris... There might not be such powerful guys to use in other worlds...

After thinking clearly, Fang Senyan then thought about visiting the Basilisk's nest. That place was actually on the other side of the mound. It should have been a den inhabited by large animals such as wild boars or bears, but it should have been abandoned. The original owner either left or became prey for the Basilisks.

At the entrance of the nest, there were also dense shrubs, cleverly blocking unwelcome gazes and flowing rainwater. Led by the artificial humans, Fang Senyan bent down and walked in. Surprisingly, there was no bad smell inside. Many dry grasses and feathers formed several nests.

The artificial humans found five fist-sized eggs in the nest, with brown-red surfaces and rust-brown spots. They used the previously downloaded offline database and found that these eggs were not valuable, so they suggested leaving them to Mr. Ramtas as a dessert after the meal.

But Fang Senyan refused. He believed that the Basilisk's petrification ability was quite remarkable. If they could hatch them, and then give them to San Zai to improve the breed and tame them, it would be a good choice.

In the west of the cave, which should be the Basilisk's living room or entertainment area, Fang Senyan found many petrified insects and small animals. It seemed that the Basilisk had a hobby of collecting the petrified corpses of these victims, but there were no gems or anything like that. The only valuable discovery was a piece of ore, and it wasn't Byerium ore. According to Artificial Human No. 1, this ore was also a rare mineral, and submitting it could be worth a considerable three merit points.

There was no doubt that it was very dangerous to go out hunting or walking in a thunderstorm. It seemed that the creatures on Upsilon Planet were well aware of this. So, Fang Senyan and his party safely spent their first night on Upsilon Planet in the rumbling thunder.

To show his satisfaction with the work of the three artificial humans, Fang Senyan rewarded each of them with an extra 250 grams of nutrient solution. For the artificial humans, this was like the boss giving the employees an extra month's salary. So, the morale of the whole team seemed to be quite high.

Because Fang Senyan trusted Ramtas quite a bit, he fell asleep without worry. The next morning, Upsilon Planet surprisingly had a rare sunny day. Two suns appeared in the sky, one in the south and one in the north, generously pouring light and heat onto this planet. Sufficient moisture, fertile soil, and ample sunlight combined to immediately allow Fang Senyan to witness a spectacle.

On the vast wilderness, a large number of plants rapidly grew at a visible speed, condensed flower buds, then flower buds, and finally formed brilliant golden sunflower discs about half a meter high, frantically absorbing light and heat from the sun!

Imagine the scene of thousands of golden sunflower fields, and they quickly occupied the entire grassland and the entire field of vision in a short period of time. It was truly a breathtaking and vast beauty!

But just as Fang Senyan was about to order the departure, Artificial Human No. 1 stood up again and said:

"Master, I don't recommend leaving now, because these sunwheel flowers are most dangerous when they are in bloom. Once disturbed, they will spray poisonous mist. And when they bear fruit, the hard sunflower seeds will also be ejected from the flower discs at high speed, with a killing power no less than rubber bullets. More importantly, their flowering period is only half a day."

Fang Senyan listened to Artificial Human No. 1's words and tried to touch it. He found that white mist would indeed be sprayed from the small holes on the stems. Even if he inhaled it, he would feel a slight dizziness.

It should be known that the air here was not suitable for human survival in the first place. Fang Senyan also needed to inhale pure oxygen from time to time to relieve the body's needs. If these poisonous mists were added, the damage to the body would be great. So, he could only wait patiently.

It was rare to have a sunny day at this time, and Fang Senyan was also located on a relatively high mound. He climbed to the top of the mound and saw the unique mushroom rock landscape in the distance without much effort. It was probably still twenty kilometers away. Even at the normal speed of five kilometers per hour, four hours would be enough to reach it.

However, just as Fang Senyan was looking at the mushroom rock from afar, he suddenly saw a series of firelights flashing on the top of the mushroom rock, followed by an extremely violent explosion. The power of the explosion was so amazing that it actually blasted half of the top of the mushroom rock to collapse. Even at such a distance, he could feel the force of millions of tons of rocks and dust crashing down, heavily hitting the ground!
