《Survival in Space: I have Hundredfold Enhancement》 Chapter 1 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation In the extremely dark universe. A small spaceship was quietly parked in the endless void. ¡°Where is this?¡± Grimm stood on the spot with a dumbfounded expression, somewhat nervous. He was originally sleeping at home, but as soon as he opened his eyes, he appeared on this small spaceship. The space of the spaceship was somewhat narrow. Through the window at the side, Grimm could clearly see that there were some space junk floating around. In the distance, there were also some boxes that had a metallic luster. Suddenly, his gaze was attracted by the spaceship¡¯s control screen. [ Cosmic survival guide: If you want to survive here, read the contents below carefully. ] [ Survivor, in the dangerous universe, the spaceship base is your only home, but the spaceship is in a state of damage, so please fix it as soon as possible. Otherwise, when danger comes, you won¡¯t be able to deal with it! ] [ The threats you may face include starvation, meteorite impacts, slaughter robots, and even encountering an unknown space civilization. You have 50 basic energy points. Make good use of it to strengthen your spaceship base. ] [ Important reminder: one death means real death! ] ¡°All of this is real?¡± Grimm was a little anxious. He was sure that he was awake and not dreaming. Suddenly, a voice appeared in Grimm¡¯s consciousness, followed by a caption synchronized with the display screen. [ The global universe survival game has officially begun. The communication channel has been opened! The trading center has been opened! The technological construction has been opened! ] In an instant, three options appeared in Grimm¡¯s consciousness. The communication channel option automatically opened. [ Is anyone there? What¡¯s going on? Why am I in the spaceship when I woke up? ] [ F*ck! Why is the spaceship broken? The notification asked me to fix it. What the f*ck Am I supposed to fix it with? ] [ F*ck? A meteorite is coming! The spaceship can¡¯t move. I can¡¯t dodge It! ] [ Are you okay? ] [ Already dead? ] [ Already dead? This is a F*cking game? People will die? ] The player that was hit by the meteorite did not send out any more messages. Grimm¡¯s expression was grave. That important notification was right. Players would really die here. In fact, just a minute ago, thousands of players might have already died in the game. He had to quickly repair the spaceship! Otherwise, it would not be good if he was hit by a meteorite. If he was lucky, the periphery of the spaceship would be damaged, and worst case scenario, the would be completely destroyed! The universe was in a vacuum. Once the spaceship was destroyed, Grimm would definitely die. Grimm decided not to waste time here. He quickly opened the interface of the trading center. The trading center could trade everything, but there was no currency system, so he could only trade an item for an item. Grimm clicked on it. The first transaction made his eyes widen. [ Plastic x 1 trades any food x 1, any fresh water x 1] [ Message: I¡¯m hungry and thirsty. Give me some food and fresh water! ] What a joke! It would be strange if this transaction could be done! Now everyone was in an empty space. Apart from 50 basic energy points, there was nothing else. Even if some players got food and fresh water, it was impossible to trade with them. In this environment, nothing was more precious than food and fresh water! ¡°Right! Let¡¯s take a look at the technology construction interface first!¡± Opening the technology construction interface, a construction list refreshed. [ Alloy spaceship building materials: 5 basic energy points, normal alloy x 10] [ High-energy pulse cannon: 10 basic energy points, dense alloy X 20, mechanical module X 5] [ Nuclear power engine: 20 basic energy points, dense alloy X 20, mechanical module x 10, energy ore x 5] [ Small nuclear power station: 20 basic energy points, dense alloy X 20, mechanical module X 5, energy ore X 5] ¡­ Looking at the rows and rows of clustered manufacturing options, Grimm understood the survival method of this game. He needed to build various facilities to strengthen the functions of the spaceship to ensure his survival. After a brief inspection, the alloy spaceship¡¯s building materials were used to expand the internal space of the spaceship. The pulse cannon could be used to attack the enemy, and it could also be used to attack meteorites to obtain various minerals in the meteorites. Not to mention the nuclear engine. As long as this thing was built, his spaceship would have the ability to move. However, at present, the spaceship only had 50 points of basic energy, which was not enough. Therefore, he had to build a small nuclear power station first to provide the spaceship with continuous energy. But the problem was that he did not have the materials either! Grimm looked at the floating materials outside the window, then looked at the control panel of the spaceship and found a joystick controller. He walked closer and took a look. A notification appeared. [ Hint: Mechanical Claw Controller. Each time you capture materials, you will consume 1 point of basic energy. You can flip the joystick and capture the floating materials in the universe. However, do not randomly grab the floating robots. They may attack you! ] ¡°I see!¡± Grimm smiled and held the joystick tightly. He was about to operate the mechanical claw when he suddenly heard an unfamiliar notification sound. [ Ding! The system has activated the 100-fold amplification check-in! ] [ Ding! Check-in successful. Obtained ultra-long-distance mechanical claw x 1! ] [ Ding! Ultra-long-distance mechanical claw has received a 100-fold amplification! ] [ Ding! Obtained high-speed automatic mechanical claw x 1! ] ¡°This¡­ a reward after checking-in? And there was 100-fold amplification?¡± Before Grimm could react, he heard a new notification. [ Ding! Do you want to install the high-speed automatic mechanical claw now? ] ¡°Install!¡± Grimm smiled. With such a good thing, what was the point of not installing it? As he chose to install it, flashes of white light appeared at the bottom of the spaceship. It looked as if it was welding equipment. At the same time, the joystick on the console disappeared and was replaced by a small display screen. The display screen displayed the scene captured by the front-end camera of the high-speed automatic mechanical claw. In less than a minute, the installation of the new mechanical claw was completed. Grimm approached the console and the introduction of the device popped up. [ High-speed automatic mechanical claw ] [ Introduction: It can capture materials at a high speed. The capture distance is long and the speed is faster, but the consumption of energy is greater. Each capture consumes 5 basic energy points! ] ¡°My God!¡± ¡°The consumption has increased by five times!¡± Grimm calculated. With this consumption speed, he could only capture 10 times before he ran out of energy! The problem was, he still had to leave 20 energy points to build a small nuclear power plant! ¡°DAMN!¡± ¡°A dead end?¡± ¡°How can I gather so many materials after capturing 6 times?¡± Just when Grimm felt that he was cheated by the system, he suddenly saw a metal box floating in the universe. It was slowly approaching. ¡°There must be more materials in the box. Take a gamble!¡± Grimm had no other choice now. He gave an order to the high-speed automatic mechanical claw. ¡°Capture the Metal Box!¡± After the order was given, the mechanical claw quickly extended toward the target. It skipped over the basic materials and directly grabbed toward the metal box dozens of meters away. As the mechanical claw made a grab action, the metal box was quickly pulled back. In the next moment, a notification appeared. [ You have captured a space treasure chest x 1! ] [ Acquired: Dense alloy x 2! ] [ Acquired: Mechanical Module X 1! ] [ Acquired: Energy Ore X 1! ] Looking at the resources that he had obtained, Grimm was not happy at all. These few resources were simply not enough! Even if he could capture a space treasure chest every time in the future, he still would not be able to gather enough resources to create a small nuclear power station. Moreover, there was only one treasure chest nearby. ¡°F*ck!¡± ¡°This is too f*cking hopeless!¡± Grimm thought that he was destined to die from exhaustion of energy, and his face was gloomy. But right at this time, the system notification sounded. [ Ding! The 100-fold increase has taken effect! ] Chapter 2 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation ¡°What? This can also be amplified?¡± Before Grimm could react, he received a new notification. [ Ding! Dense alloy x 2 has a 100-fold increase. Dense alloy X 200 has been obtained! ] [ Ding! Mechanical Module X 1 has a 100-fold increase. Mechanical Module X 100 has been obtained! ] [ Ding! Energy Ore X 1 has a 100-fold increase. Energy Ore X 100 has been obtained! ] ¡°What?¡± ¡°I¡¯m rich!¡± Grimm was in disbelief. He did not expect that the pitiful amount of resources he had on hand would increase by 100-fold in an instant! There was no need to stress now. He would build a small nuclear power station first! Grimm smiled slightly. He opened the technology manufacturing interface and directly chose to build a small nuclear power station. Following the disappearance of 20 basic energy points, a welding manufacturing platform appeared at the middle rear of the spaceship. With the flashings of white light, a tall nuclear power station was built in less than ten minutes. [ Small nuclear power station ] [ Description: Can provide 50 points of basic energy for the spaceship every day, but consumes 1 energy ore every day! ] ¡°Although the energy provided is a little low, at least I don¡¯t have to worry about running out of energy. At most, I can build a few more nuclear power stations and provide energy together!¡± Just when Grimm was thinking about this, he suddenly received a system notification. [ Ding! The 100-fold increase has taken effect! ] [ Ding! A small nuclear power station has received a 100-fold increase, obtained Antimatter Energy Station! ] ¡°What? The constructions can also be increased?¡± Grimm was stunned and quickly checked the introduction of the Antimatter Energy Station. [ Antimatter Energy Station ] [ Description: It can automatically absorb the antimatter in the universe and provide 500 points of basic energy for the spaceship every day! ] Grimm nodded in shock. Although the energy provided was only 10 times larger, the antimatter energy station did not need to be fueled! ¡°Install it immediately!¡± In the next moment, the small nuclear power station in front of him changed. With the flashing of welding white light, an antimatter energy station was built very quickly. The energy station looked completely black and had this futuristics technological feel. It could not be more perfect! [ Reminder, the energy supply for today has been completed! ] Grimm looked at the display screen. The basic energy points had increased from 25 points to 525 points. Now, there was enough energy to do anything! Next, of course, it was to build a nuclear power engine. If the spaceship base did not have power, it would not be able to move. The resources that could be collected would be very limited. Grimm opened the technological construction interface without hesitation and chose to build a nuclear engine. [ Nuclear engine: 20 basic energy points, dense alloy X20, mechanical module X10, energy ore x5] ¡°Materials are complete, build!¡± Waves of welding white light flashed behind the spaceship. In less than two minutes, the nuclear engine was completed. However, Grimm was not in a hurry to operate it. Instead, he waited for the system notification. Sure enough! [ Ding! The 100-fold increase has taken effect! ] [ Ding! The nuclear engine has received a 100-fold increase. The nuclear engine unit has been acquired! ] Grimm quickly checked the introduction. [ The nuclear engine unit ] [ Description: Consumes 50 energy ores every day. The speed is 10 times faster than that of a normal nuclear engine. Moreover, it has powerful defences and isn¡¯t easily damaged! ] ¡°Beautiful!¡± The nuclear engine unit consumed a lot of energy, but its speed was fast and its defence was strong. Grimm had a 100 times amplification system, so he did not have to worry about energy ores at all. ¡°Install it immediately!¡± As Grimm gave the order to install it, waves of flashing white light came from the back of the spaceship. Ten minutes was enough for the nuclear engine unit to be installed. Through the glass window of the spaceship, Grimm saw that the nuclear engine unit had a main propeller and four auxiliary propellers. However, this size was already half of the size of the spaceship. ¡°It¡¯s time to expand the spaceship!¡± ¡°But¡­¡± Grimm checked the construction method of the alloy spaceship and found that he did not have any ordinary alloy. ¡°Mechanical claw, start to automatically capture the nearby materials!¡± Common alloy was considered the most common material. There was no problems at all to let the high-speed automatic mechanical claw capture them. In the next moment, the mechanical claw quickly stretched out and began to capture the materials again and again. Grimm did not even need to operate by himself. He opened the communication channel to see if there was any useful information. [ What the f*ck? This mechanical claw is too difficult to operate. I used 10 basic energy points and only captured five materials, all of which are plastic¡­ ] [ Everyone, conserve energy. If we can¡¯t quickly build a nuclear power station, the spaceship will be completely useless! ] [ You f*cking make it sound easy. It¡¯s harder to grad materials with this mechanical claw than grabbing dolls in a doll machine! ] [ I didn¡¯t catch anything. I¡¯m dying of thirst. Anyone who has fresh water, please save me! ] [ F*ck! I¡¯ve used up all my energy! ] The players were all troubled about how to accurately control the mechanical claw. If they were lucky, they might catch some basic materials. If they were unlucky, they couldn¡¯t catch anything even if they used up all their energy. Grimm guessed that there would be a large number of players who would die in the game due to various reasons! His situation was much better. The high efficiency of the automatic mechanical claw was great, and it also had a 100-fold increase. The next moment, a notification sounded. [ Capture: Glass x 1! ] [ Glass x 1 has a 100-fold increase, glass x 100! ] [ Capture: energy ore x 1! ] [ Energy ore x 1 has a 100-fold increase, energy ore x 100! ] [ Capture: Pure water x 1! ] [ Pure water x 1 is increased by 100 times. Pure water x 100 is obtained! ] ¡­ As the mechanical claw captured the materials again and again, the quantity of all the materials were increased by 100 times. Grimm excitedly checked the materials that he had obtained. He had captured several hundred sets of dense alloys, but there were no ordinary alloys! ¡°Pure water?¡± Suddenly, he saw that there were 100 portions of pure water in the capture list. With this thing, he could trade for anything. There was nothing more precious than fresh water and food now! Grimm quickly opened the trading center and filled in 20 identical trading contents. [ Pure water x 1 trading for ordinary alloy x 10] In an instant, the communication channel exploded. [ What the f*ck? Fresh water! ] [ It¡¯s so f*cking expensive. One serving of fresh water needs to be traded with 10 normal alloys? ] [ It¡¯s too expensive. I can¡¯t afford it! ] [ Big brother, can you lower the price? I only have five normal alloys! ] Grimm shook his head. At this time, who still had the mood to be kind? Those who had materials came to trade. Those who did not have materials died of thirst. This cruel universe had always been about the law of the jungle! At this time, these players who had not developed well were still complaining about the heavens and others, trying to be saved by good people. However, the players who truly realized the crisis were all like Grimm, crazily developing their strength. However, when they saw the 20 identical transactions in the trading center, they could not help but be shocked speechless. [ in just a few minutes, you¡¯ve already obtained 20 portions of pure water? ] [ That¡¯s too insane! ] Grimm smiled slightly and replied to a message. [ There are plenty of pure water in the storage. People with high grade materials can private message me. The one with the highest price will get it! ] Chapter 3 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Nutritious Water Sources With fresh water at hand, Grimm was not afraid that no one would trade with him. Sure enough, in less than five minutes, all the transactions were completed. [ Transaction successful. Obtained: common alloy x10! ] ¡­ A total of 20 transaction messages allowed Grimm to obtain 200 pieces of common alloy in just five minutes. And this was not the end. A message popped up on the private message interface. [ I have a compact alloy. Can I trade one set of fresh water for two compact alloys? ] [ Don¡¯t need it right now! ] [ Don¡¯t! We can negotiate the price. Compact alloys are very rare! ] Grimm smiled. He really did not lack compact alloys at the moment, but he could consider other materials. [ What other rare materials do you have? ] [ How about glass? ] [ Don¡¯t need! ] Grimm felt that this player probably did not have anything rare anymore, so he directly closed the chat window. Immediately after, another private message notification popped up. [ Big brother, I have a piece of toast, one for one, I¡¯ll trade it for a portion of fresh water. How about that? ] Grimm had plenty of fresh water now, but he really did not have any food. One for one, it was not a loss. He decisively launched a trade, and in the next moment, a trade notification popped up. [ Transaction successful, obtained: toast x 1! ] In Grimm¡¯s hand, there was a toast that had been burnt yellow. He opened a bottle of fresh water and ate as he drank. He also kept an eye out for new private messages. After checking a few useless private messages, he was attracted by one player¡¯s message. ¡°Boss, I have an old-fashioned carbine gun. Can I trade for five portions of fresh water?¡± Five portions of fresh water? Grimm smiled. This guy really knew how to bid! In the spaceship base, there were many things that did not require the player to personally handle. The carbine gun¡¯s use value was very limited. However, this thing could be kept as a backup. ¡°At most two portions of fresh water. If you want more, you can look for someone else.¡± The other party was speechless. In the entire world, this person was the only one who had so much fresh water. Even if he looked for someone else, that person would not be able to afford it! [ That¡¯s a weapon. It¡¯s worth at least four portions of fresh water, right? ] Grimm smiled slightly and replied. [ You can choose to trade two portions of fresh water, or you can choose to keep the carbine gun and die of thirst. ] The other party was silent for a few seconds before sending a trade request. [(Old carbine gun x 1) trade (Fresh water x 2)] Grimm quickly clicked on the trade and paid for two portions of fresh water. [ Transaction successful, obtained: Old carbine gun x 1! ] An old carbine gun suddenly appeared in Grimm¡¯s hand. This gun seemed to have been modified and had a long and narrow magazine. [ Old carbine gun ] [ Fescription: A modified carbine gun. It has an enlarged magazine with a capacity of 50 rounds. It can be fired automatically or single shot. ] Grimm nodded. Although the capacity of the bullets was very large, but the gun would become useless after all 50 bullets were fired. After all, he did not have any extra bullets! As he was thinking, suddenly, the spaceship base issued a warning. [ Warning: a meteorite is approaching the hull. The probability of impact is 100% ! ] ¡°Meteorite?¡± Grimm looked at the window of the spaceship. As expected, there was a meteorite rapidly approaching. Should he control the spaceship to avoid it? No! There were a lot of resources inside the meteorite. Since the meteorite was still far away and its speed was not fast, Grimm decided to immediately build a high-energy pulse cannon. He opened the technological construction interface. [ High-energy pulse cannon: 10 points of basic energy, dense alloy x 20, mechanical module x 5] All the materials were ready! ¡°Build!¡± As Grimm gave the order, the front end of the spaceship flashed with welding white light. In less than a minute, the high-energy pulse cannon was completed. As expected, the system notification sounded. [ Ding! The 100-fold amplification has taken effect! ] [ Ding! The high-energy pulse cannon has received a 100-fold amplification, obtaining the giant energy pulse heavy cannon! ] Grimm immediately chose to install it. At the same time, he began to check the attributes of the giant energy pulse heavy cannon. [ Giant pulse cannon ] [ Description: A powerful pulse cannon. It has a longer range and greater power. However, each shot requires 200 basic energy points. ] ¡°What a guy! He swallowed 40% of my electricity in one shot!¡± Grimm was speechless. With the amount of electricity he had now, he could only activate it twice a day at most. [ Warning: meteorite impact in 10 seconds! ] Suddenly, a warning red light flashed beside the display screen of the spaceship. Grimm chose to attack the meteorite without hesitation! Boom! As he gave the order, the giant energy pulse heavy cannon was instantly activated. However, the meteorite was still rapidly approaching while the giant energy pulse heavy cannon was charging. After about five seconds, he finally saw that the heavy cannon was fully charged. In an instant, the muzzle of the cannon shot out a beam of white light and hit the surface of the meteorite. The meteorite, which was the size of a car, exploded instantly and broke into countless tiny pieces. ¡°High-speed automatic mechanical claw, capture the meteorite fragments!¡± The order was given, and the high-speed automatic mechanical claw reached out and began to grab the meteorite fragments. [ Acquired: energy raw ore x 1! ] [ Energy raw ore x 1 has a 100-fold increase, energy raw ore x 100! ] [ Obtained: ice X 1] [ Ice x 1 has a 100-fold increase, ice x 100! ] .. ¡°Ice?¡± Grimm looked at the description of the ice. [ Ice ] [ Description: after melting, water can be obtained. However, it contains a large amount of unknown bacteria or toxic substances. It needs to be purified! ] Grimm was disappointed. He thought that with ice, he could obtain a large amount of fresh water. He didn¡¯t expect that after this thing melted, it still needed to be purified. ¡°Let¡¯s see if I¡¯ve unlocked any relevant construction principle.¡± Grimm opened the technology construction interface and found the related principle diagram. [ Ice purifying processor: 20 basic energy points, common alloy x 20, mechanical module x 20] [ Description: Add Ice and you can generate purified water. Purify one unit of ice to get one unit of fresh water, consume 10 basic energy points. ] ¡°What? Purifying one unit of fresh water will consume 10 points of basic energy?¡± This amount of energy consumption completely stunned Grimm. It seemed that fresh water was really precious. The probability of obtaining directly drinkable pure water in the universe was not very high. In most cases, one could only obtain such ice cubes. For ordinary players, it was simply too difficult to frequently use only a small amount of energy to produce purified water! ¡°Produce!¡± Fortunately, Grimm had sufficient energy. He chose to produce it directly. Five minutes later, an instrument for producing purified water appeared next to him. However, Grimm did not remember to use it. Instead, he waited for the 100-fold amplification to activate. Sure enough, the next moment, a system notification appeared. [ Ding! The 100-fold amplification is effective! ] [ Ding! Ice purification water processor receives 100-fold amplification. Obtained nutrient purification water generator! ] ¡°Nutritious purified water?¡± Grimm curiously checked the introduction. [ Nutrient purification water generator ] [ Description: ice can be processed into nutritious purified water with vitamins, minerals and other nutrients. For every portion of nutritious purified water produced, 20 points of basic energy will be consumed! ] ¡°Beautiful!¡± In the cosmic environment, it was not enough to just eat one¡¯s full. If the food was simple and lacked nutrition, one might get sick. With this nutrient purified water, one basically did not have to worry about health problems anymore. ¡°Furthermore¡­ the nutrient purified water can definitely be sold for a great price!¡± Chapter 4 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation ¡°Add Ice!¡± As Grimm gave the order, 100 ice cubes were added to the nutritious purification water generator. The next moment, a notification appeared. [ Do you want to start purification now? How much is the purification amount? ] ¡°Start purification, purify one portion first!¡± As Grimm gave the order, the machine began to work. After consuming 20 basic energy points, he got one portion of nutrient purified water in five minutes. He picked up the glass cup that the machine came with and took a sip. He felt that the nutrient purified water was very sweet and much better than he had imagined. ¡°In that case¡­ the rest of the ordinary purified water can be sold!¡± Grimm discovered that there was still no ordinary alloy in the shattered meteorite fragments. He might as well sell the remaining 76 bottles of purified water and use them to gain ordinary alloy. Then, he would expand his spaceship. [ Pure water x 1 trading common alloy x 10] ¡­ Grimm copied the same content dozens of times in one go. He opened the communication channel and sent a message. [ There are 76 bottles of pure water on the trading channel. First come, first served! ] The players were stunned when they saw the message! [Who is this god? There¡¯s so much pure water! ] ¡°Hurry up and buy it, I¡¯m dying of thirst!¡± ¡°This is f*cking¡­ still so expensive?¡± ¡°What the F*ck? You need 10 ordinary alloys to trade for a portion of pure water, isn¡¯t this a scam?¡± ¡°You have so much pure water, can¡¯t it be cheaper?¡± Grimm did not pay attention to these people. Anyway, there were so many players, someone was willing to pay 10 ordinary alloys to trade for pure water. After all, it was better to suffer a loss than die of thirst! Sure enough, Grimm received a series of trade notifications. [ Trade successful, obtained: Ordinary alloy x10! ] ¡­ In less than 10 minutes, all the pure water was sold out. Haggling at this time? This was not a vegetable market. It was already good enough to have some water to survive! In this kind of environment, Grimm had to be a profiteer. His only goal was to develop as fast as possible and obtain a greater chance of survival. Those noisy players who thought it was too expensive were either just saying so or did not understand the current dangerous situation at all! ¡­ In a spaceship, a young man with a beard was staring at the message in the communication channel. ¡°Grimm, this guy is very fat!¡± Charles touched his beard and sneered secretly. ¡°He exposed his wealth so quickly. It seems that he is my first target!¡± He obtained a special item in a cosmic treasure chest that could lock onto any player he wanted. [ ID Locator ] [ Description: Can locate a player¡¯s position. can only be used once a day! ] Charles entered Grimm¡¯s name into the locator. The ID locator quickly determined the other party¡¯s position. According to the Locator¡¯s display, Grimm¡¯s position was not far from him. He only needed about three days to fly to his position. ¡°I will become the first space pirate in this world!¡± ¡°Move in the direction of the target!¡± Charles gave the order. His spaceship adjusted its direction and the propeller spewed out white flames. ¡°Let¡¯s wait and see!¡± ¡­ Grimm was about to use the ordinary alloy that he had just obtained to expand the spaceship when he received a system notification. [Warning: Your ID has been locked by a special item. There may be an unknown danger! ] ¡°What?¡± ¡°Special item?¡± Obviously, this so-called special item should be some kind of item in the game, so the one who used it should be a certain player. ¡°I¡¯m being targeted?¡± Grimm was not nervous at all. On the contrary, he smiled. He looked at the high-energy pulse heavy cannon at the front of the spaceship. He thought that if the players wanted to look for trouble, then they could come all they want. He did not believe that the other party had a more powerful combat weapon than himself. What a joke! His high-energy heavy pulse cannon was the product of the system¡¯s 100-fold enhancement! Even players who developed quite well could only be considered trash in front of this heavy cannon! ¡°I¡¯ll just want and see who is going to cause trouble?¡± Grimm smiled slightly and opened the technological construction interface. He was ready to use the common alloy to expand the size of the spaceship. [ Alloy spaceship building materials: 5 basic energy points, common alloy x10] Since the materials and energy were sufficient, Grimm was ready to build. In the next moment, a notification appeared. [ The main body of the spaceship has been upgraded. The current level is level 0. To upgrade to the next level, 10 basic energy points are required. Any building materials x10! ] ¡°So that¡¯s how it is!¡± Grimm originally thought that he needed to expand the spaceship bit by bit. However, It turned out that as long as he made the corresponding materials, the spaceship could automatically upgrade! He did not hesitate and selected to create the alloy spaceship building materials. After a moment, boxes of thick and heavy metal boards appeared in front of Grimm. As expected, the system notifications kept popping up. [ Ding! The 100-fold increase has taken effect! ] [ Ding! Alloy spaceship building materials have received 100-fold increase. Dense alloy strengthening building materials have been obtained! ] ¡­ In the blink of an eye, 10 sets of alloy spaceship building materials had become dense alloy strengthening building materials. [ Dense alloy reinforced building materials ] [ Description: Tt has a higher resistance. Ordinary weapons cannot penetrate it! ] ¡°It¡¯s an invincible existence!¡± [ The main body of the spaceship has adequate building materials. Do you want to upgrade? ] ¡°Upgrade!¡± As Grimm gave the order, the 10 boxes of dense alloy reinforced building materials instantly disappeared. At the same time, the structure of the entire spaceship had changed. The space inside the spaceship had doubled. Ten minutes later, the upgrade was completed. Grimm stood inside the more spacious spaceship and looked outside. The surface of the shuttle-shaped spaceship had become thicker and heavier, and its defensive power had been strengthened visibly! Nodding his head in satisfaction, Grimm looked at his remaining energy. [ Basic energy: 205 points! ] Grimm decided not to use these 205 points of energy for the time being. The reason was very simple. Before the next day¡¯s energy was produced, he had to reserve a part of the energy for backup. This way, if he encountered any unexpected situations, he could at least activate a high-energy pulse heavy cannon. Grimm laid down on the deck of the spaceship¡¯s cabin and prepared to rest for a while. He also wanted to check if there was any useful information in the communication channel. [ There are too little resources in the universe! ] [ Food, who has food, I¡¯ll trade with him! ] [ My energy is exhausted¡­ I can only wait for death. ] ¡­ Grimm shook his head. It seemed that there were too many people who could not adapt to the cruel living environment here. Suddenly, a message caught his attention. [ I saw a meteorite! ] [ No! That should be called a f*cking planet! ] [ F*ck? A mine! There¡¯s a mine here! ] Grimm suddenly became interested and was about to continue looking when he suddenly heard a system notification. [ Notification: Unknown planet nearby. Do you wish to approach? ] Hearing this voice, Grimm immediately stood up. Through the window, he indeed saw a dim dot of light in the distance. ¡°It¡¯s there, right? Approach immediately!¡± Following Grimm¡¯s order, the spaceship¡¯s engine spewed out streaks of white flames. Chapter 5 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation [ Reminder: arriving at the target location in 8 hours! ] It had to be said that the nuclear engine unit¡¯s propulsion speed was really fast. The naked eye could only see a small dot of light forthe planet, but it only took 8 hours to arrive! Grimm nodded. He felt that he could use this period of time to rest and rest up. But the problem was, where was he going to rest? ¡°I need to create a sleeping cabin!¡± Grimm opened the technology construction interface and searched for a while. He really found the manufacturing principle of a sleeping cabin. [ Basic sleeping cabin: 5 points of basic energy, ordinary alloy x10, glass x10, plastic x10] The materials were complete, and the energy consumption was acceptable. Grimm chose to make it. Then, as streaks of white flames appeared, in front of him, a metal sleep cabin appeared in the center of the spaceship. Through the glass window, Grimm found that the sleep cabin was empty, with no special functions. However, he was not worried. After the 100-fold enhancement, the sleep cabin should be different. As expected, the next moment, a system notification appeared. [ The 100-fold enhancement has taken effect! ] [ The basic sleeping cabin has received a 100-fold enhancement. Advanced healing sleeping cabin has been obtained! ] [ Advanced healing sleeping cabin ] [ Description: You only need to rest for four hours to fully recover your spirit. Moreover, resting in the sleeping cabin can speed up the recovery of your body¡¯s injuries. ] Grimm smiled and lowered his head to check. The sleeping chamber looked much more advanced. Through the glass panel outside the chamber, Grimm could clearly see its internal structure. The soft buffer material was wrapped with a light blue liquid buffer. Grimm had only seen this kind of thing in sci-fi movies. He did not expect to see the real thing now. Without hesitation, he directly opened the sleeping cabin and changed into a set of clothes for the sleeping cabin. Then, he carefully lay down inside. It was unexpectedly comfortable. Initially, he thought that he might not be able to adapt to it. However, after lying down, he instantly felt that his body had relaxed a lot. Moreover, when the cabin door was closed, a display interface appeared on the glass baffle, clearly showing the current state of the spaceship. [ Status: In flight ] [ Power: 200 basic energy points ] Grimm nodded and closed his eyes to rest. Four hours later, when he woke up, he should be arriving at the planet soon. He had just fallen asleep when he was suddenly awakened by a series of high-frequency vibrations. [ Warning: the spaceship is under attack! ] ¡°What?¡± Grimm did not hesitate and immediately rushed out of the sleeping cabin. He came to the pilot interface and saw that a robot with a mechanical structure appeared on the display. It was using an electric drill to drill holes in its spaceship! ¡°What the f*ck?¡± Grimm was speechless. He was just sleeping, how could he encounter this thing? The robot was about the same size as Grimm. According to the prompt on the display, that guy was drilling a hole in the top of the spaceship. Although he was equipped with a high-energy pulse cannon, this thing could not aim at the target next to the spaceship. Now, the only way was for Grimm to leave the spaceship and kill him with his old carbine gun! ¡°Can I leave the spaceship?¡± He asked the console. [ To leave the spaceship, you need to wear a spacesuit and install safety ropes! ] Grimm had thought that these things would be made by himself. Unexpectedly, a changing room slowly rose from the bottom of the spaceship. Grimm walked into the changing room. After a few minutes, he had changed into a white spacesuit. Behind the spacesuit, there was a safety rope that was dozens of meters long. [ Do you want to leave the cabin? ] ¡°Leave the cabin!¡± Grimm gripped the old carbine gun tightly. Following the opening of the lower gate, he pushed hard and his whole body ejected out of the spaceship. He grabbed the side wall of the spaceship and climbed up. Gradually, he saw the figure of the robot. The robot saw that someone was approaching and immediately stopped what it was doing. It raised a thermal weapon that it had brought with it and was about to shoot at Grimm. ¡°What the f*ck?¡± This was in space. Once the spacesuit was damaged, his life would be over immediately. He did not hesitate to pull the trigger. He did not care about saving bullets. After a series of shots, he fired more than ten bullets in an instant. The robot¡¯s head was blown up by the bullets. Its entire body lost power. ¡°Mechanical claw, capture the robot!¡± The high-speed automatic mechanical claw received the order and immediately stretched out. It grabbed the robot¡¯s arm and pulled it back into the spaceship. At this time, Grimm also pulled the safety rope and returned to the cabin. He took off his spacesuit and just as he walked out of the isolation room, Grimm received a notification. [ You have captured the robot wreckage x 1! ] [ Acquired: Mechanical Module X 1! ] [ Acquired: dense metal x 2! ] [ Acquired: Chip Module X 1! ] Following that, as expected, all the resources received a 100-fold increase! [ Mechanical module X 1 received a 100-fold increase, mechanical module X 100! ] [ Dense alloy x 2 has a 100-fold increase, dense alloy x 200! ] [ Chip module X 1 has a 100-fold increase, Chip Module X 100! ] ¡°What is the chip module used for?¡± Grimm looked at the attributes of the chip module in confusion. [ Chip module ] [ Description: Used to make more sophisticated equipment. ] Nodding his head, Grimm opened the technological construction interface. As he obtained the chip module, the technological construction interface unlocked a new manufacturing principle. [ Precision radar: 50 basic energy points, compact alloy x10, mechanical module x20, Chip Module X1! ] [ Description: can be used to detect the surrounding environment of the spaceship. Moreover, if necessary, it can block the position of the spaceship itself to avoid being discovered by the enemy. 10 basic energy points are consumed every day. ] ¡°Build!¡± In the vast universe, it was not possible to see things with one¡¯s eyes. One had to build a radar and use electromagnetic waves to determine the position of the enemy in a longer distance. As he gave the order to build, the sound of welding was heard from the core of the spaceship. A few minutes later, the precision radar was completed. However, Grimm did not check it at all. Instead, he waited for the 100-fold amplification to take effect. [ The 100 times amplification has taken effect! ] [ The Precision Radar has received a 100 times amplification. High-energy scanning radar has been acquired! ] [ High-energy scanning radar ] [ Description: it has a larger scanning radius. It can provide radar positioning information for all the weapons and equipment on the spaceship. It can assist in offense and defense! ] ¡°This isn¡¯t bad at all!¡± Originally, the high-energy pulse heavy cannon had a very long range. However, because it did not have radar cooperation, it was unable to accurately lock on to long-distance targets. Now, with the high-energy scanning radar, his high-energy pulse heavy cannon had an additional scope. Grimm smiled slightly and nodded in satisfaction, but suddenly felt that his stomach was a little hungry. ¡°No, I have to go trade some food back!¡± Opening the trading center, Grimm directly hung up a transaction. [ chip module x 1 trades any food x 3] For the same transaction, Grimm put up four. Chapter 6 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Grimm put up the transaction but there was still no deal after a long while. He reckoned that the players probably did not see the transaction he put up, so he opened the communication channel and sent a message. [ Exchanging one chip module for three servings of food. Those with food, come quickly! ] It was fine if he did not send this message, but once he sent it, everyone was stunned. ¡°What? Three servings of food? That¡¯s too expensive!¡± ¡°I can¡¯t afford it¡­¡± ¡°I¡¯ll consider it if it¡¯s cheaper.¡± Grimm shook his head and replied. ¡°The chip module can be used to make radar. You definitely won¡¯t be at a loss to exchange three servings of food for such a rare material!¡± ¡°What the f*ck? Radar?¡± ¡°Mainly because I can¡¯t afford it!¡± [ It¡¯s still too expensive! ] Most players¡¯ purchasing power was indeed insufficient to pay for his transaction content, but Grimm did not care. There would always be players with better progress who would be interested in the chip module. Sure enough, a few minutes later, Grimm received a transaction notification. [ Transaction successful, obtained: Toast X 3! ] [ Transaction successful, obtained: French fries x 3! ] ¡­ Grimm was about to take out the food when he suddenly received another private message. [ Do you still have the chip module? I still want it. Name your price! ] [ I do have it, but I don¡¯t intend to sell it for the time being. ] [ I have a lot of fresh water and food. No matter how many chip modules you have, if you don¡¯t have any food, you will definitely die of thirst and hunger. Name your price. These are all negotiable! ] Grimm shook his head. It seemed that this player really needed a chip module, but he did not need too much food right now. Instead, he could ask about other things. ¡°Do you have rifle bullets?¡± Seeing Grimm¡¯s question, the player on the other side was obviously stunned. After a few seconds, he finally replied. ¡°If it¡¯s bullets, wait for me. I will give you an answer in a few minutes!¡± [ Okay! ] Grimm replied and suddenly frowned. If he had bullets then he did. If he didn¡¯t have bullets, then he didn¡¯t have bullets. Why wait a few minutes? Could it be that this was a player who had formed an alliance with other players? It seemed that he had encountered a team of players. To be able to assemble a team in such a short time, these players must have extraordinary adaptability. No Wonder Grimm felt that he could not afford so much food by himself, and he did not need more chip modules. It turned out that he was collecting supplies for the team. A few minutes later, the other party sent a message. [ I have 50 rifle bullets. Can I use it to trade for 5 chip modules? ] [5 chip modules? You are too good at business! ] Grimm shook his head and directly cut the price by more than half. [2 pieces for 50 rounds of rifle bullets! ] [ You¡¯re cutting the price too hard! ] [ Or you can find other sellers to negotiate. ] Grimm directly closed the private message interface. He guessed that there should be very few players who had chip modules in the game right now. Moreover, even if they got the chip modules, it was only one or two pieces. It was impossible to casually trade them out. He still had 95 chip modules. They were a team with at least five or six players. The number of chip modules they needed was definitely not small. Who else could they buy from other than him? Sure enough, as expected. After more than ten minutes, that player sent a private message to Grimm again. [100 rifle bullets for five chip modules. This price can not be lower! ] Grimm thought for a moment. Although rifle bullets were a little expensive, if he did not follow this price, they would very likely only sell 50 bullets. Rifle bullets were simply too important to him now. [ Deal! ] Grimm quickly sent the transaction contents over. One second later, the transaction was completed. [ Transaction successful. Obtained: Rifle Bullets x100! ] ¡°Beautiful!¡± Grimm put away the bullets. His old carbine gun now had a total of 135 bullets. If he encountered robots that attacked the spaceship again, Grimm would not have to worry about the lack of bullets at all. After being busy for a while, Grimm forgot to check how long it would take to reach the target planet. While eating French fries, Grimm checked the display screen. The display screen showed that he had two hours until he reached the target planet. Through the window, Grimm looked at the planet. It was still a small bright spot, not much bigger than before. There probably wasn¡¯t much resources that could be mined. ¡°But¡­ will I need to make some equipment to reach the planet later?¡± Grimm thought for a moment and decided to check the technological construction interface to see if there were any relevant manufacturing principles. A few minutes later, he found a manufacturing principle. [ Planet excavation vehicle: Basic energy 50 points, ordinary alloy x20, mechanical module x20, rechargeable battery X 1! ] ¡°Rechargeable battery?¡± Grimm checked with confusion and found that it was a not yet unlocked manufacturing principle. ¡°Looks like I can¡¯t make it yet!¡± Just when he was a little dejected, he suddenly heard a notification. [ Ding! Automatic check-in successful! ] ¡°Huh? It¡¯s been 24 hours already?¡± Obviously, he had been in this game world for 24 hours, otherwise the system would not automatically check-in. The next moment, a notification appeared. [ Ding! Check-in successful, planet excavation vehicle X 1 obtained! ] [ Ding! Planet excavation vehicle X 1 has a 100-fold increase! ] [ Ding! Obtained high endurance variable speed harvester x 1! ] As the system notification sounded, a harvester the size of a SUV suddenly appeared in front of Grimm. This harvester had six wheels, two mechanical claws. There was even a propeller equipment behind it. Grimm went closer to check the description. [ High endurance variable speed harvester ] [ Description: it can be used for 24 hours per charge and consumes 100 basic energy points. Additionally, it is equipped with a small propeller. When necessary, it will burn 10 energy ores and gain 10 minutes of temporary acceleration. Moreover, the speed of gathering materials will be even faster! ] ¡°Beautiful!¡± Other than the power consumption of the harvester being too large, it had almost no shortcomings. When he arrived at the planet at later, Grimm would be ready to drive the harvester to collect materials. He quietly waited to get close to the planet. On the other side, Charles, who had been thinking about killing Grimm, was dumbfounded. ¡°How is this possible?¡± Yesterday, he estimated that it would still be three days before he arrived near Grimm, but today, it was actually six days. ¡°This doesn¡¯t make sense!¡± He could not imagine how Grimm could fly more than three times his distance in one day. ¡°Could it be that he has a more powerful propeller?¡± ¡°Damn it!¡± ¡°But I¡¯m more interested in this prey!¡± Charles stroked the stubble on his chin and gave the order to the spaceship. ¡°Continue to chase!¡± He had two naval cannons. As long as he could get close to Grimm, he was 100% sure that he could kill him. At that time, all the resources that Grimm had accumulated would be his. ¡°Hehe, Grimm, the fatter you are the better!¡± Chapter 7 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation [ Arrived on an unknown planet, requesting to land! ] Approaching the planet, the spaceship sent a notification. Grimm hurriedly gave the order. ¡°Land!¡± Following the order, the spaceship gradually slowed down and began to adjust the landing angle. Through the window, Grimm saw the whole picture of the planet. It seemed a little exaggerated to say that it was a planet. It looked more like a large meteorite. It was not big, probably only the size of a few buildings. The surface was uneven, and some ores could be vaguely seen. Bang! The spaceship collided with the surface of the planet gently before slowly coming to a stop. Grimm walked into the harvester and gave the order to leave the spaceship. The isolation room rose up and he changed into a spacesuit. He held the steering wheel of the harvester tightly and drove it into the isolation room. A few seconds later, he arrived at the surface of the planet. Grimm drove the harvester slowly. As the vehicle continued to move forward, the harvester¡¯s detector also emitted a series of notifications. [ Energy ore detected. Mechanical Claw is mining. Mining successful. Energy ore X 1 obtained! ] [ Rock detected. Mechanical Claw is mining. Mining successful. Rock X 1 obtained! ] [ Soil detected. Mechanical Claw is mining. Mining successful. Soil X 1 obtained! ] ¡­ As Grimm kept moving forward, the Harvester kept mining. However, these materials were not directly mined by the spaceship and could not be increased by a hundred times. Therefore, Grimm felt that the harvest was not very big. However, in the next moment, when the notification sounded, Grimm was suddenly stunned. [ Mutated seed detected. Mechanical Claw is mining. Mining successful. Obtained mutated seed x 1! ] ¡°Mutated seed?¡± Grimm quickly checked. [ Mutated seed ] [ Description: it can be planted, but it¡¯s not certain what kind of plant will grow. ] Although he was not sure what kind of plant would grow, it was still very valuable. What if this thing could grow food like potatoes and tomatoes? Of course, Grimm still needed to consider another problem. If he wanted to grow plants on the spaceship, he first had to solve the soil problem! ¡°Forget it, let¡¯s keep it first!¡± Grimm continued to drive the harvester, collecting materials along the way. On the way, he obtained another mutated seed. Although he had also harvested a lot of other materials, it did not increase by a hundredfold. It was only a fraction of what he had. He continued to drive for a while and soon cleaned up the materials on the surface of the planet. Suddenly, he found the wreckage of a spaceship. ¡°Oh sh*t?¡± He looked carefully and found that he was not mistaken. In front of him, the metal object that was stuck on the surface of the planet was a crashed spaceship. ¡°There must be important materials in there!¡± Grimm drove the harvester close to the wreckage of the spaceship. The mechanical claw of the harvester had collected a part of the materials on the surface, but the overall structure of the spaceship could not be damaged. ¡°Looks like I have to go down and take a look myself.¡± In order to avoid possible danger, Grimm brought his old carbine gun and walked to the side of the spaceship. He climbed in through a hole. There was not much light in the spaceship. Grimm turned on the searchlight that came with the spacesuit and saw the scene inside clearly. Other than some damaged equipment, there was almost nothing valuable here. However, after Grimm climbed up the corridor, he actually found two metal boxes. ¡°There should be important supplies inside!¡± He tried to open the boxes. The next moment, as the lid was opened, portions of food appeared in front of Grimm. [ Acquired: compressed biscuits X10! ] ¡°This is good!¡± He checked the attributes. [ Compressed biscuits ] [ Description: it can satisfy hunger. It is rich in nutrients and high in calories. You only need to eat one piece a day! ] Grimm was currently worried that he did not have a stable source of food. Now that he had these 10 compressed biscuits, he did not have to worry about food for the next 10 days. He opened the second box. [ Acquired: Schematic diagram of a small-scale plantation base x 1! ] ¡°I¡¯ll go? A small-scale plantation base?¡± Grimm smiled. With the small-scale plantation base, he could plant the mutated seeds. He could not wait to check the manufacturing principles of the small-scale planting base. [ Small-scale planting base: 50 points of basic energy, ordinary alloy X 20, soil x 10, rock x 10] [ Description: Can plant 4 plants. Within 10 days, the plants will mature and you can harvest fruits. ] Grimm smiled and put away the blueprint. This thing was too practical. It was just that the planting time required was too long. He planned to go back and create this thing. After getting a 100 times enhancement from the system, he would definitely be able to obtain a stronger planting base. Then, he checked again. There was no other material inside the spaceship that could be directly picked up. Grimm then thought about how to dismantle the wreckage of the spaceship. It was definitely not possible to dismantle it by hand. He had to go back and check the technological construction interface to see if there were any relevant manufacturing principles. The resources of the entire planet had basically been plundered by him. Grimm then drove the harvester all the way back to the location of the spaceship. Once he boarded the spaceship, he immediately opened the technology manufacturing interface. ¡°Create a small-scale plantation base!¡± [ Small-scale plantation base: 50 points of basic energy, ordinary alloy x20, glass x20, soil x10, rock x10] The materials and energy requirements were met. Following Grimm¡¯s order, the spaceship¡¯s reserve of basic energy dropped from 700 points to 650 points. Waves of welding white light flashed behind the spaceship. A moment later, a plantation base surrounded by a metal base and a glass shell was completed. The next moment, a system notification appeared. [ The 100-fold increase has taken effect! ] [ The small plantation base has received a 100-fold increase. Acquired high-efficiency and high-yield plantation base! ] [ High-efficiency and high-yield plantation base ] [ Description: it can grow eight crops. Each crop can ripen in five days and bear fruit. Moreover, the yield can be doubled! ] Grimm smiled! With this thing, he no longer had to worry about not having food. However, there were only two mutated seeds now. It was better to go to the exchange center and exchange for some seeds back. What materials should he use to trade? Grimm thought for a moment and decided to use purified water to trade. A player would know the important value of seeds. No one would easily trade them out. However, if the target of the trade was a player who did not have fresh water and was so thirsty that he could not survive, then when they saw the content of his trade offer, they could not care less. Thinking about this, Grimm decisively listed six similar trades. [ Nutrient purified water x 1 trade mutated seeds x 1] Grimm smiled and opened the communication channel. He sent a message to tell the players about his trade content. [ Attention, players who do not have fresh water. I collect mutated seeds here. One portion of nutrient purified water trade for one seed! ] Chapter 8 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Seeing Grimm¡¯s message, the players instantly started discussing. [ Trading a portion of nutrient water for a seed, he¡¯s too good at doing business! ] [ Who doesn¡¯t know that seeds can grow food, it¡¯s simply wishful thinking! ] [ Exactly! A profiteer! ] While the few of them were discussing animatedly, suddenly, a player sent a message. ¡°I have seeds. I¡¯m going to trade now. I¡¯m dying of thirst!¡± ¡°What the f*ck? You¡¯re really going to trade seeds for a portion of nutrient water? Are you crazy?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t have fresh water. Try being thirsty for such a long time!¡± ¡°I got it, I got it, thank you, big brother!¡± Grimm smiled slightly. Those players who were gossiping probably still have plenty of fresh water and food. Therefore, they could not understand the players who did not have fresh water and how anxious they were when they saw the trade. No matter how they commented and held grudges, it was their business. The key was to get what he wanted. In less than ten minutes, he got six mutated seeds. And those players who successfully made the deal not only didn¡¯t feel they were at a loss, but also expressed their gratitude in the transaction remarks. Grimm smiled and planted all eight seeds in the planting base. Then he took eight more portions of nutrient water and poured them into the water tank of the plantation base. After that, Grimm opened the technology construction interface again. He needed to find a tool that could be used to dismantle the wreckage of the spaceship. Soon, a manufacturing principle caught Grimm¡¯s attention. [ Disintegrator mechanical arm: basic energy 20 points, mechanical module x10, compact alloy x 5, energy raw ore x 5] [ Description: installed on the arm and used to disintegrate various materials. Efficiency is average. ] Although the description said that the efficiency was average, Grimm didn¡¯t mind at all. He had to make it first. There was still a 100-fold increase. He gave the order and consumed 20 points of basic energy., Soon, a heavy mechanical arm was made in front of Grimm. In the next moment, the 100-fold enhancement took effect. [ The 100-fold enhancement has taken effect! ] [ The disintegrator mechanical arm has received a 100-fold enhancement, acquired disintegrator exoskeleton! ] The disintegrator mechanical arm in front of Grimm turned into a huge metal exoskeleton. This thing looked mighty and domineering. Opening the top, one could directly climb in and operate it. He checked the attribute description. [ Disintegrator exoskeleton ] [ Description: one charge can be used for 24 hours and consumes 100 points of basic energy. It possesses great strength and two multi-functional mechanical arms. Its defensive performance is average. Although it is not a combat type exoskeleton, it still has a certain amount of offensive ability. ] Grimm smiled. With this thing, it would be much more convenient to disassemble materials in the future. It was just that the power consumption was really not ordinary. If it was not for the collection vehicle and the exoskeleton coming with power, charging would have consumed 200 points of basic energy! Grimm did not hesitate to put on the disintegrator exoskeleton. He barely got into the collection vehicle and left the spaceship. He went all the way to the location of the previous spaceship wreckage. Next, he disassembled and collected materials! As the two mechanical arms began to cut the hull, Grimm kept pieces of materials into his bag. [ Acquired: dense alloy x 2! ] [ Acquired: Chip module x 1! ] ¡­ In less than three hours, the entire spaceship wreckage was about to be disassembled completely. But at this time, Grimm suddenly heard a muffled crash sound. Bang! In an instant, the remaining wreckage was sent flying by some force. Meanwhile at the original location of the spaceship wreckage, there was a cave. [ Warning: unknown dangerous creature detected! ] Grimm immediately became alert. In the next moment, he saw a huge tentacle stretching out from the cave. The thing¡¯s flesh was a black-gray color. Its movements were abnormally swift and violent. It fiercely whipped towards Grimm¡¯s location. He immediately extended his mechanical arm to block, but the strength of the tentacle was too great. He was instantly knocked flying and almost flew out of this planet. Fortunately, Grimm¡¯s movements were very fast. With force, the exoskeleton grabbed the ground. But he knew clearly that he simple wouldn¡¯t be able to deal with this enormous creature relying on the exoskeleton. ¡°Retreat!¡± Grimm quickly snug into the harvester and immediately started to accelerate. In an instant, the harvester¡¯s propeller spewed out two beams of light and flew straight towards the location of the spaceship. However, the tentacle in the cave was extremely fast and actually kept chasing closely behind. Although Grimm pulled away, he found that the tentacle did not give up. Moreover, that tentacle was too long! Grimm rushed straight into the spaceship. Seeing Grimm enter the spaceship, the Tentacle did not give up and instead chased even more closely. He suddenly understood something. The wreckage of the spaceship that he saw before probably did not crash there. Instead, it was captured by the tentacle and pulled to the entrance of the cave. ¡°Danger!¡± Grimm ordered the spaceship to take off as soon as he entered the spaceship. The five thrusters spat out white flames at the same time. In an instant, the spaceship took off. The tentacle did not give up. It reached toward the spaceship. Grimm sneered. ¡°Now, I¡¯m not afraid of You!¡± He gave the order. ¡°High-energy pulse heavy cannon, shoot the monster!¡± As he gave the order, the high-energy pulse heavy cannon turned its muzzle and shot out a white light toward the tentacle. Boom! The white light shot toward the tentacle and directly penetrated it. Not only that! The planet that Grimm had docked on just now was instantly penetrated by the high-energy pulse. The tentacle instantly turned into thick smoke. It¡¯s body inside the planet was also burned. The damaged flesh could not withstand the vacuum of the universe and instantly exploded, spraying out a large amount of black liquid. At this time, Grimm ordered to capture the nearby resources. The Mechanical Claw moved out. [ Captured: poisonous liquid x 1! ] [ Poisonous liquid x 1 has a 100 times amplification, poisonous liquid x 100! ] [ Captured: Bone Shard x 1! ] [ Bone Shard x 1:100 times enhanced. Bone Shard x 100! ] ¡­ Within a short while, Grimm had obtained a large amount of resources. But he scratched his head. ¡°What can poisonous liquid and Bone Shard Do?¡± [ Poisonous liquid] [ Description: can be used to create biochemical weapons. ] [ Bone Shard ] [ dDscription: it can be used as bait to lure all kinds of monsters in the universe. ] Grimm nodded. ¡°It seems that these things are somewhat useful.¡± He piloted the spaceship and collected some supplies nearby. After all the supplies here had been cleared, he ordered the spaceship to continue sailing in a certain direction. The universe was very quiet. Grimm had been busy for several hours. He was tired and hungry, so he ate while studying the schematics of the technological interface. He wanted to see what kind of biochemical weapon the poisonous liquid could create. ¡°This thing is not bad!¡± [ Poisonous liquid explosive bomb: 10 points of basic energy, common alloy x 5, poisonous liquid x 5] [ Description: a special kind of artillery bomb. After attacking the target, it will explode and release poisonous liquid. It can only be used with a fort. ] ¡°As for fort¡­ Let¡¯s see if we can make it!¡± Chapter 9 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Grimm decided not to make the poison fluid bomb for the time being because he did not have the blueprint for the cannon fort. He put away all the supplies and was about to check the information on the communication channel when he suddenly saw a patch of cosmic supplies appearing not far away. ¡°The supplies are here!¡± Grimm immediately ordered the spaceship to change direction and move in the direction of the supplies. In less than five minutes, the spaceship approached the supplies. Grimm clearly saw that there were two metal chests among the supplies. Those were universe treasure chests. In the universe treasure chests, one could get a lot of important supplies. ¡°Mechanical claw, capture two space treasure chests first. Don¡¯t leave any other supplies behind!¡± As he gave the order, the highly efficient automatic mechanical claw began to capture the supplies. [ You have captured a space treasure chest x 1! ] [ Acquired: Compact Alloy X 1! ] [ Acquired: Mechanical Module X 1! ] [ Acquired: Toast X 1! ] ¡°There¡¯s food?¡± Grimm smiled. After a toast was multiplied by a hundred fold¡­ The next moment, the sound of a system notification sounded. [ The hundred fold increase has taken effect! ] [ Compact alloy X 1 has been increased by a hundredfold, compact alloy x 100! ] [ Mechanical module X 1 has a 100-fold increase, mechanical module X 100! ] [ Toast X 1 has a 100-fold increase, toast X 100! ] ¡°Beautiful!¡± In an instant, Grimm had so much food that he could not finish it. Even if he ate three pieces of toast a day, it was enough for him to eat for more than a month. Of course, if he kept the toast in his hands for too long, it would probably go bad. Since the players needed food now, he might as well sell the bread and trade for some rare materials or special items. Just as he thought of this, another space treasure chest was captured by the mechanical claw. [ You have captured Space Treasure Chest x 1! ] [ Acquired: normal alloy x 2! ] [ Acquired: Energy Ore X 1! ] [ Acquired: Basic Cannon Fort Data Card X 1! ] ¡°Data Card?¡± Just when Grimm was puzzled, the materials he obtained got a 100-fold enhancement effect. [100-fold enhancement has taken effect! ] [ Normal alloy x 2 has a 100-fold enhancement. Acquired normal alloy x 200! ] [ Energy ore X 1 has a 100-fold enhancement. Acquired Energy Ore X 100! ] [ Basic Cannon Fort Data Card X 1 has a 100-fold increase, dual-barrel rapid-fire Battery Data Card X 1! ] Grimm did not look at the two materials he got carefully. Instead, he took out the data card and looked at it in confusion. As he took out the reward, a black data card appeared in Grimm¡¯s hand. This thing looked a bit like a USB drive. After reading the description, he understood what this thing was used for. [ Dual-barrel rapid-fire turret data card ] [ Description: the Data Card stores the manufacturing principle of the dual-barrel rapid-fire turret. As long as the data card is inserted into the control station, the internal data can be read. ] Grimm smiled. This was equivalent to unlocking a construction principle, and it had a 100 times amplification! He impatiently inserted the data card into the console. Next, he opened the technological construction interface, and sure enough, there was an additional construction principle diagram. [ Dual barrel rapid fire turret: 100 basic energy points, mechanical module X50, compact alloy X100, chip module X 2] [ Description: it has two barrels, and can shoot ordinary shells and all kinds of special shells at high speed. The advantage is high efficiency, but the disadvantage is low accuracy. ] Grimm nodded. Although the accuracy of the cannon fort was not high, the firing speed was definitely unquestionable. It was acceptable to use the attack frequency to make up for the loss of attack accuracy. Now that he had enough materials, Grimm decided to start building the gun battery. As he gave the order, the spaceship¡¯s energy reserve decreased from 410 basic energy points to 310 points. Rays of welding white light appeared on the top of the spaceship. In less than 10 minutes, the two-barrel rapid-fire turret was completed. The next moment, a system notification appeared. [100-fold enhancement has taken effect! ] [ Two-barrel rapid-fire turret has received 100-fold enhancement, acquired six-barrel rotary rapid-fire turret! ] ¡°Six-barrel¡­ Gatlin?¡± Gatlin was only a type of heavy machine gun, but what he got now was a turret! Check the description. [ Six-barrel rotating rapid-fire cannon battery ] [ Description: it has six barrels and can shoot at a high speed. It can dynamically calibrate its target. The only drawback is that it requires too many shells! ] Indeed, if its firing speed was comparable to Gatlin¡¯s¡­ then the number of shells needed could be imagined. Grimm had a slight headache. Because the poison liquid explosive shells that he had unlocked could be fired through these six tubes of rapid-fire turrets, but each explosive shell required 10 points of basic energy. This bit of energy didn¡¯t seem to be much, but if he were to prepare the shells according to the firing speed of these six tubes of rapid-fire turrets, he would need at least 100 starting shells? Producing 100 poison liquid explosive shells would require 1000 points of basic energy! Grimm shook his head and decided to wait until tomorrow¡¯s basic energy was provided before considering making poison liquid bombs. It was safer to keep the basic energy points in reserve for now. As the mechanical claw captured some more materials, the spaceship only had 290 basic energy points left. They could not be wasted anymore. All the materials in the vicinity had been plundered. Grimm opened the communication center and planned to release a message about selling food. [ I have 100 pieces of toast. If you need it, you can contact me privately. Basic materials are not considered. If you have rare materials and special items, the price can be negotiated! ] Once this message was posted, the players were all stunned. [ What? Am I seeing things? 100 pieces of Toast? ] [ This is f*cking impossible. The game has just started, how can there be so much food? ] [ You¡¯re a liar right¡­ ] [ Boss, I have glass can we trade? ] Grimm replied. [ For materials like glass, 10 pieces for one servings of toast. ] [ What? This is too expensive! ] [ Profiteers! ] Grimm didn¡¯t care how these people ridiculed him. Everyone¡¯s goal was to survive. He wasn¡¯t a philanthropist. If there was food, why not take the opportunity to make a fortune? Not long after, he received a private message. [ Boss, I¡¯m really starving. I¡¯ll trade 10 pieces of glass! ] [ No problem! ] His trade conditions were met, Grimm didn¡¯t hesitate and directly sent the transaction content to the other party. In the next moment, the transaction notification appeared. [ Transaction successful, obtained: glass X10! ] Immediately after, another private message was sent. [ Boss, I only have nine plastics here. The rest are basic materials. Can I use nine plastics and five ordinary alloys to trade? ] [ Although it doesn¡¯t meet my transaction requirements, I can see that you are sincere. Deal! ] [ Thank you, Boss. Thank you so much! ] Grimm didn¡¯t stand on ceremony and straight up sent the transaction contents. In the next moment, he received the corresponding materials. After receiving more than a dozen private messages, Grimm finally saw a special item. Chapter 10 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation ¡°I have a special item here. I want to trade it for 10 pieces of toast!¡± ¡°What special item is it? What use does it have?¡± ¡°It¡¯s a black hole generator. This thing can create a small black hole. If I didn¡¯t need food to survive, there¡¯s no way I would be trading this out.¡± ¡°Black Hole Generator?¡± Grimm thought for a moment. He felt that this thing could be used as a trump card when facing a powerful enemy. It could directly suck the opponent into a small black hole. This kind of move was definitely beyond one¡¯s expectations. [ Cheaper. ] After thinking for a while, Grimm replied with a message. [ You definitely won¡¯t be at a loss exchanging ten pieces of toast for something this good! ] [ Five pieces of toast. Have a think about it. The price of food right now is much higher than you think!¡± ] Grimm smiled. Of course, he knew that he wouldn¡¯t be at a loss. But what was the situation now? Now was the time when all the players were in a shortage of food. No matter how good the other items were, they were meaningless. When faced with the desperate situation of dying of thirst and starvation, only food and fresh water were the most precious resources. Moreover, Grimm believed that if this person tried to sell this thing to someone else, they would probably not even be able to provide two or three pieces of toast. Seeing Grimm¡¯s message, the person was silent for quite a while before reluctantly replying a message. [ Let¡¯s both compromise a little. How about eight? I absolutely cannot accept any lower! ] [ Eight. Alright, I¡¯ll give you some extra benefits! ] Despite saying this, Grimm knew that the value of this black hole generator was definitely more than eight pieces of bread. A while later, even a hundred loaves of bread wouldn¡¯t be able to exchange for such a special item. Grimm quickly sent the transaction content to the other party. In the next moment, he received a transaction notification. [ ¡°Transaction successful. Obtained: Small Black Hole Generator X 1.¡±] Grimm took out the item he had traded and discovered that it was a metal object that looked like a land mine. Above this metal object, there was a button. It seemed that if he pressed the button, this small black hole generator would be activated. He checked the description. [ Small black hole generator ] [ Description: 60 seconds after pressing the button, the black hole generator will explode and produce an extremely small black hoIe. It will suck all objects within a radius of 1 kilometer into the black hole and completely shatter them. ] Grimm scratched his head. This thing seemed to be a little dangerous. The damage radius was one kilometer. In other words, he had to escape from the one-kilometer radius within 60 seconds of activating it. Otherwise, he would be sucked into the black hole alive. It seemed that using this thing was quite a test of skill. Grimm carefully put away the small black hole generator and continued to check the private messages sent by the players. The next private message was actually not about a deal. [ ¡°I am the captain of the Cosmic King team. You have developed well. Do you want to join our team to grow together?¡± ] Grimm rejected the invitation without hesitation. [ ¡°I don¡¯t need that. Thank you.¡±] [ ¡°Wait! There are more than ten people in our team now. As long as you are willing to join our team, I can consider giving you resources. Such opportunities are rare!¡± ] [ ¡°No need, thank you!¡± ] [ ¡°Hey! Think carefully. In this world, you¡¯re either an ally or an enemy. It¡¯s better to form an alliance than to make enemies!¡± ] Grimm smiled coldly. Not to mention other things, just with his 100 times amplification system, he was not afraid of any opponent. If they wanted to fight, they could bring it on? He wasn¡¯t afraid at all! [ ¡°I¡¯m telling you again clearly, I don¡¯t need to form an alliance. If you want to swallow me, go ahead. I¡¯ll play with you at any time!¡±] [ ¡°F*ck! You just don¡¯t know what¡¯s good for you!¡± ] The other side was obviously going to scold him, but Grimm didn¡¯t wait for him to continue sending messages and closed the private message interface. Sorry, he didn¡¯t have time to argue with this so-called team leader. There were still many private messages waiting for him to browse. Grimm continued to check the private messages, but most of them were using some rare materials to trade for his bread. After working for more than an hour, 100 pieces of toast were sold out, and he only got a small black hole generator as a special item. However, it was good to have a harvest. Grimm closed the last private message and posted a message in the communication center. [ The bread has been sold out. Do not disturb me with messages! ] The players were disappointed when they saw this message. [ It can¡¯t be. I sent a private message asking for a trade a long time ago. Yet, I was still one step too late! ] [ Food, food, I¡¯m going to starve again today! ] [ ¡°I¡¯m slow and I¡¯m going to starve. Mayday, Mayday!¡± ] [¡°Boss, is there any more food?¡±] ¡­ Grimm didn¡¯t pay attention to the everyone¡¯s messages. In such an environment, the strong will survive and the weak will perish. These players were still sending messages, which meant that they were at least alive. According to his estimation, at least 10% of the players in this world had already died silently. And this was only the beginning! There was nothing to do for the time being, and the energy of the spaceship was not enough for Grimm to build anything else. He came to the hibernation cabin and prepared to have a good rest. When the energy was released tomorrow, he would first make some poison slurry bombs. ¡­ Two hours later, Grimm was still sleeping soundly in the hibernation cabin. On the other side, Charles laughed excitedly. He held the ID locator tightly in his hand. He looked at the small dot on the display and estimated the time when the two of them would meet. ¡°Less than 24 hours!¡± Originally, Charles thought that he would have to chase for a few more days, but Grimm¡¯s spaceship actually changed direction and approached his position. The target, which would have taken a few days to catch up to, now displayed on the ID locator that the time was less than 24 hours. Moreover, this was under the condition that Grimm did not continue to approach. ¡°I need to make some preparations!¡± Charles quickly made some metal shells. His firepower was now fierce enough. In addition to the two ship cannons, he also installed a cannon fort. Although the cannon fort¡¯s firepower was not great, the advantage was that the attack frequency was higher. Moreover, when shooting, it did not consume the spaceship¡¯s energy. In less than half an hour, Charles had made more than a dozen shells. ¡°Now it seems that the odds of winning are a bit higher.¡± Just as he was proudly rubbing his stubble, suddenly, the spaceship issued a warning. [ Warning: The spaceship has been locked on by an unknown radar! ] ¡°What?¡± Charles looked around in confusion, but his radar could only confirm that the spaceship was locked on, but it could not find the other party¡¯s location. ¡°Could it be that we¡¯ve already met?¡± Charles was a little puzzled. According to the current situation, Grimm¡¯s spaceship was equipped with a more powerful radar, but this did not make sense! ¡­ Grimm was sleeping soundly in the hibernation cabin when he suddenly felt waves of warning vibrations. [ Warning: unknown spaceship is approaching! ] ¡°What?¡± Grimm woke up in an instant and immediately left the hibernation cabin to check. On the display, the radar scan showed a small flashing light. It was a spaceship, and it was approaching in his direction. ¡°Got to get ready for battle!¡± Chapter 11 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Grimm stared at the target displayed on the radar and glanced at the control panel¡¯s display screen. [ Basic energy: 790 points! ] The new day¡¯s energy was filled. He could check in now? Grimm quickly opened the system. [ Check in successful, received metal cannonballs x 10! ] [ Metal cannonballs X 10 received 100x amplification, received high explosion cannonballs x 100! ] ¡°Oh shit? 100 high explosion cannonballs?¡± Grimm was stunned. Not only had the metal cannonballs turned into high explosion cannonballs, but the number had also increased by 10 times! As soon as he was about to start a battle, the ammunition was sent to him. He quickly checked the introduction. [ High explosion cannonballs ] [ Description: possess strong explosive power, and the firing range of the cannonballs has been doubled! ] ¡°Awesome!¡± It was really unexpected that the range of the high explosion cannonball was even longer than that of the metal cannonball! However, even so, the enemy spaceship still didn¡¯t come within the range of the cannonball. Grimm smiled and did not care. He would use the high-energy pulse heavy cannon to attack from a distance! He immediately gave the order. ¡°High-energy pulse heavy cannon, get ready to attack!¡± As the order was given, his 790 basic energy points dropped to 590 points. The high-energy pulse heavy cannon was fully charged. If Grimm gave the order to attack, it could be fired immediately. On the radar, the unknown spaceship was still slowly approaching. And at this time, Grimm received a private message. [ ¡°Hello, Grimm!¡± ] [ ¡°Who are you?¡± ] [ ¡°Space pirate Charles, I hope you will surrender immediately and hand over all the valuable things in the spaceship. I don¡¯t want to destroy all the important materials on your spaceship after firing, so you¡¯d better submit yourself!¡± ] Grimm did not expect to meet a space pirate. But where did this guy get the confidence to face him? Grimm did not hesitate and directly replied. [ Good luck, rookie! ] [ Grimm, you f*cking¡­ ] Without waiting for Charles to finish sending the message, Grimm turned off the private message interface. Why waste words with this guy, he might as well directly shoot him! ¡°High-energy pulse heavy cannon, attack!¡± Grimm gave the order to attack. In an instant, a beam of light shot out! The high-energy pulse charged out a few thousand meters in an instant and accurately hit Charles¡¯ spaceship. ¡°What?¡± Charles only saw a flash of white light and his spaceship was hit by the high-energy pulse on the side. [ Warning: the spaceship has suffered serious damage. There is a risk of rupture! ] ¡°What the hell?¡± ¡°This is impossible!¡± Charles looked at the distorted side of the spaceship in shock. If the high-energy pulse had moved a few centimeters closer, his spaceship would have been completely destroyed. He could not understand. The high-energy pulse cannon that the players had unlocked could not possibly cause such serious damage to the spaceship! ¡°Return fire!¡± Charles gave the order to attack without caring about anything else. However, a notification appeared. [ Warning : high-energy artillery cannon (1) damaged, unable to attack! ] [ Warning : high-energy artillery cannon (2) damaged, unable to attack! ] [ Warning: the target is outside the range of the single-barrel cannon, unable to attack! ] Charles¡¯s heart collapsed. He had prepared three weapons, but two of them were destroyed by Grimm¡¯s high-energy pulse in an instant. ¡°Thrusters, full speed ahead. I want to fight at close range!¡± Charles still had the single-barrel cannon that had the ability to attack. His only hope now was to fight Grimm up close. As long as he reached the vicinity of Grimm¡¯s spaceship, the pulse cannon would lose its combat advantage. He thought perfectly, but he already had the mentality of a gambler. This time, he wanted to gamble with his life. If he won the gamble, Grimm would die! On the other side, Grimm had just fired one shot. After recharging, he found that on the radar, Charles did not run away, but instead sped up and approached him. ¡°What kind of tactic is this?¡± ¡°But, it¡¯s good to be closer!¡± The high-energy pulse heavy cannon was powerful, but it consumed a lot of energy. Since the other party intended to get close to him, then let¡¯s engage in a close-range artillery battle! Grimm gave the order. ¡°Six-barrel revolving rapid-fire turret, get ready to attack!¡± As the order was given, the six-barrel revolving rapid-fire turret began to rotate and lock onto the target. Moreover, Grimm heard the sound of the cannons being loaded. A few seconds later, the target entered the firing range. ¡°Attack!¡± Under Grimm¡¯s command, the six-barrel turret suddenly shot out a series of cannonballs. In the dark universe, high-speed light spots shot into the distance. Almost at the same time, Grimm saw a burst of explosions in the distance. Although he could not hear the sound, Grimm guessed that Charles¡¯ spaceship must be very exciting now! Indeed, at this moment, Charles was completely dumbfounded. He had not yet reached the attack range of the basic cannon and he saw a series of white light dots flying over. The next moment, the spaceship issued a warning. [ Warning: spaceship is about to be attacked! ] ¡°Dodge immediately!¡± Boom! Boom Boom Boom! His spaceship made evasive actions, but the shells on the opposite side were too dense, pouring over like it was free. Moreover, they even predicted the escape direction of his spaceship. ¡°I¡¯m f*cking unconvinced!¡± ¡°It¡¯s clearly not in range!¡± ¡°Grimm, what kind of f*cking equipment are you using!¡± Boom! There was a sudden explosion! The spaceship broke! The air pressure was out of balance. Charles did not have time to react before his entire body was completely torn apart by the vacuum of the universe. In the continuous explosions of the spaceship, he was turned into a pile of debris and disappeared completely. And on Grimm¡¯s spaceship, a notification appeared. [ Target has been destroyed. Do you want to get close to collect supplies? ] ¡°He was killed just like that?¡± Grimm was a little surprised. Charles accelerated and approached him. Grimm thought that he had some fatal trump card, but he never expected that this guy would be so vulnerable. ¡°I haven¡¯t even used my full strength yet¡­¡± Grimm shook his head, but there was nothing to regret. Charles was dead, and the wreckage of his spaceship was still there. Of course, the next thing to do was to immediately retrieve the materials on his spaceship. ¡°Get close, mechanical claw, get ready to collect materials!¡± Grimm ordered the spaceship to get close to the wreckage of Charles¡¯ spaceship. The spaceship began to approach Charles¡¯ spaceship. In less than five minutes, it approached the damaged spaceship. There were scattered fragments of the spaceship. The high-speed automatic mechanical claw had already received the order. As soon as it got close to the fragments, it began to capture them. [ Acquired: Mechanical Module X 1! ] [ Acquired: dense alloy x 1! ] ¡­ Looking at the pieces of materials being recovered, Grimm smiled. This was a win. Charles rushed to deliver parcels for him. It was really interesting. There were so many good things. It would be a waste if he didn¡¯t take them! Grimm prepared to enter the exoskeleton of the disintegrator¡¯s body and leave the spaceship to dissemble the damaged spaceship into various materials to bring back. On the way, he wanted to see if there were any rare special items in the spaceship. Special items were the most precious things. Chapter 12 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Grimm fastened the safety rope and floated out to the wreckage wearing the exoskeleton. The decomposition began. As the drill and chainsaw on the robotic arm disassembled the pieces of material one by one, Grimm gained a lot of basic supplies. However, these things were only small side dishes. After opening a hole on the remnant of the spaceship, Grimm entered inside the cabin. At first glance, he saw something that looked like a tablet. ¡°What is this?¡± He picked up the thing and took a look. [ ID Locator ] [ Description: Can locate the location of one player. Can only be used once a day! ] ¡°So that¡¯s what it was!¡± Grimm recalled the warning notification he received earlier. So Charles had used this thing to find him! ¡°Hehe! This is a huge gain!¡± He didn¡¯t expect obtain such a special item by killing a rookie player! Was there a courier more considerate than Charles? Grimm put away the ID locator and continued to collect the material reserves in the cabin. Needless to say, he obtained a lot of basic materials. The important thing was that he also obtained three big apples! In the vast universe, fruits were absolutely rare goods! Putting away the apples, Grimm continued to decompose the spaceship. It took him more than ten hours to completely decompose the spaceship. It was worth mentioning that during the decomposition process, Grimm had also obtained a few chip modules. Although these things were not as valuable as food, they were definitely still considered rare goods at the current stage. Back on his spaceship, Grimm was sweating from exhaustion. He couldn¡¯t wait to drink a cup of nutrient purified water and then he picked up the big apple that he had just captured and took a bite. Crack! The apple was sweet, crisp and delicious. It was simply too refreshing! While the other players were starving and struggling to survive, he was actually living so comfortably. This difference would be infuriating to others! Grimm ate the apple and opened the trading center, trying to see if there were any materials that could be purchased. After going through it for a while, Grimm actually saw a valuable transaction request. [ High explosive shell data card x 1 trading mechanical module x 30, compact alloy X 60] Data Card? Grimm suddenly remembered that he also had a data card! This thing could still be traded? Grimm went to the control panel and unplugged the data card of the double-barrel rapid-fire turret that he had obtained previously. Then he checked the technological construction interface. The double-barrel rapid-fire turret could still be manufactured. He realised that the schematic diagram that he obtained could only be used by himself, but the data card was different. After reading it, it could still be sold! Then he had to sell the two-barrel rapid-fire artillery data card at a good price. But before that, he had to collect the high-explosive shell data card first. The high-explosive shell he had was a check-in gift. Grimm couldn¡¯t make it himself. The attack on Charles just now had consumed 40 of his shells in one go. He had to get the manufacturing principle. He sent a private message to the seller. [ If the data card for the high-explosive shell is a bit cheaper. I will consider buying it. ] The other party quickly replied. [ This is a data card. My bid is not low! ] Grimm smiled. With the bid this player made, probably not many players in the world could afford it. Moreover, at this stage, using ordinary metal shells was sufficient for everyone. Even if they bought the data card for the high-explosive shell, they might not be able to afford producing it. [ Save it. If your offer was reasonable, it would have been sold long ago. Who has that much resources now? With a 50% discount, I can consider taking it. ] [50% discount? You¡¯re too greedy! ] [ At most, I¡¯ll give you an apple on top of that. The kind that¡¯s very sweet and crisp! ] [ Apple¡­ Apple? You still have fruit? ] The person was obviously stunned for a moment. Grimm immediately replied. [ Deal or no deal? Give me a quick reply. I¡¯m very busy! ] The person went silent for a few seconds before finally replying. [ Alright, deal. ] Grimm smiled. This was what he had been waiting for. He quickly sent the transaction content and instantly closed the deal. Using only half of the price plus an apple, he obtained the high explosive ammunition data card. He had made a profit from this transaction! If this person met a buyer who knew the goods, this data card could at least be sold for several times the offer price. Grimm happily inserted the data card into the console. Opening the technology construction interface, the high explosive shell manufacturing principle reading was completed. [ High explosive shell: 20 basic energy points, dense alloy X 5, fiery ore x 5] ¡°Fiery ore?¡± Grimm was depressed. He had never seen such a thing before. ¡°In that case, go to the players and trade some back.¡± He smiled slightly and hung up the two data cards to the trading center for sale. [ High explosive shell data card x 1 trading fiery ore x 200] [ dual-barrel rapid-fire artillery data card x 1 trading fiery ore x 300] The moment these two transactions were posted, the face of the player who had just sold the high-explosive ammunition data card to Grimm turned black with anger. This person had just bought his data card at a low price and then tried to sell at a price several times higher! Of course, Grimm didn¡¯t know how angry that player was at the moment. What he was really concerned about was when the transaction would be completed. According to his estimation, players who had the ability to pay for such a huge amount of materials were simply rare. However, he was not in a hurry. There would always be players who were willing to buy good items. Just as he was thinking about it, he received a private message. [ The price of the two-barrel rapid-fire turret is too high. Can it be cheaper? ] [ No, this turret is much more powerful than the basic turret. ] [ But the materials you need are singular. We can¡¯t gather them all at once! ] ¡°We? Another team!¡± Sure enough, at this stage, only players who formed a team could afford to buy their own battery data card. [ ¡°Only trading for fiery ores, nothing else.¡±] [ ¡°Alright, wait for us for some time.¡±] [ ¡°Try to be as fast as possible. If someone can afford the materials, I¡¯ll sell it immediately.¡±] Grimm closed the private message and smirked proudly. It was very obvious that the other party had taken a fancy to his data card. It was absolutely worth it to trade a data card for 300 pieces of fiery ores! The rest was to wait for the other party to deliver the goods. ¡­ At this time, all the members of the Death Star team gathered together. ¡°Leader, are we really going to use 300 pieces of fiery ores to trade with that guy?¡± ¡°That person is too greedy!¡± The leader shook his head helplessly. ¡°There¡¯s nothing we can do. We need a higher-level turret. Stop whining. Now, distribute the quest. The six of us must each get 50 pieces of fiery ores in one day!¡± ¡°Leader, how is this possible?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t care what method you use. In short, you must seize this deal before the other players do!¡± Everyone nodded gloomily and dispersed. But in the next moment, the leader of the Death Star team received a private message from Grimm. [ It¡¯s You? Can you lower the price? ] He thought that Grimm took the initiative to come to him, the price could still be negotiated. But when he saw the message content, he instantly became depressed. [ There¡¯s another team offering 350 pieces of hard ores. Do as you see fit! ] Chapter 13 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Something that Grimm didn¡¯t expect happened. The price of the two data cards he had put up was already quite high. He did not expect that several teams would suddenly appear to buy them through private messages. Since that was the case, of course the highest bidder would get them. In less than half an hour, the prices of the two data cards were doubled. Of course, the higher the price, the longer Grimm waited because the players had too little reserves of materials like fiery ores. While waiting, Grimm shifted his gaze to the control panel. At this moment, he saw a golden treasure chest pass by in space. ¡°Eh? A golden treasure chest?¡± The previous space treasure chests he had seen were all silver-white colour, but this time it was actually golden. Moreover, it almost passed by the spaceship in the blink of an eye. ¡°There must be very precious resources inside!¡± Grimm immediately ordered the spaceship to chase after the Golden Treasure Chest. The propeller rotated, the spaceship turned 180 degrees and then chased after the Golden Treasure Chest. After more than ten seconds, the spaceship approached the Golden Treasure Chest. Grimm immediately let the high-speed automatic mechanical claw capture the treasure chest. The long mechanical claw stretched out, and in less than three seconds, it captured the Golden Treasure Chest. [ Acquired: Golden Space Treasure Chest x 1! ] [ Acquired: Small reuin coordinate data card x 1! ] Grimm was slightly stunned. He did not expect that the Golden Space Treasure Chest only contained such an item. Before he could check the data card, the 100-fold increase took effect. [ The 100-fold increase has taken effect! ] [ Small ruin coordinate data card x 1 has a 100-fold increase, obtained large ruin coordinate data card x 1! ] [ Large-scale ruin coordinates data card ] [ Description: A one-time use item. After reading the data card, you will obtain the coordinates of a large-scale ruin! ] ¡°Large-scale ruin?¡± Grimm smiled. Even with his toes, he would be able to guess that there must be a lot of survival resources in this large-scale ruin. If he went in there, he would be able to earn a big harvest. Thinking of this, Grimm impatiently inserted the data card into the spaceship¡¯s control panel. The next moment, a notification appeared. [ Reading coordinates completed! ] [ Full speed ahead, arriving in 24 Hours! ] ¡°What? So close?¡± Initially, Grimm thought that the coordinates of the large-scale ruin would be very far away. He did not expect that he would only need 24 hours to arrive. This was simply too great. 24 hours was just enough time for him to make some preparations before entering the ruins. Of course, the first step was naturally to create more high-explosive shells. Although it was a ruin, there was a high probability that there were no hostile lifeforms. However, there might be ferocious beasts, or there might be defensive and offensive facilities that were not completely destroyed. If he didn¡¯t enough shells, he might take a beating even if he arrived at the ruins. But the problem was that there were no fiery ores now! He was feeling depressed when a private message suddenly popped up. [ Grimm? I am the captain of the Navigator team. I currently have 350 strong ores. Can you sell your high-explosive shell data card to me? ] Grimm hesitated for a moment. Although this player¡¯s bid was relatively low, he had the advantage of being able to deliver the goods immediately. [ Alright, let¡¯s trade now! ] Grimm directly sent the contents of the trade over. The next moment, the trade was successful. [ Trade successful, obtained: fiery ores x 350! ] Now that he had obtained the fiery ores, he could now manufacture high explosive ammunition. He checked the remaining energy he had. He still had 560 points of basic energy. The energy was still okay. He opened the technology construction interface and checked the manufacturing principles of high-explosive shells. [ High-explosive shells: 20 points of basic energy, compact alloy X 5, high-explosive ores x 5] Grimm thought for a moment. 560 points of basic energy. Leaving 260 points for backup, he would have 300 points of basic energy that could be used could be used to manufacture 15 high-explosive shells. 15 shells weren¡¯t enough! Grimm was a little dejected. He looked at his energy bar, remained silent for a few seconds, and smiled. ¡°If the energy is not enough, then I¡¯ll build another antimatter energy station. I have plenty of materials anyway!¡± Grimm opened the technology manufacturing interface and found the manufacturing schematics of the small nuclear power station. He chose to build it. Following that, the completed small nuclear power plant received a 100-fold increase and was upgraded to an antimatter energy station. At the same time the construction was completed, Grimm saw that his energy reserves had increased from 560 points to 1,060 points. ¡°Hehe, no energy? Not for me!¡± Similarly, leaving 260 points of basic energy as backup energy, Grimm could use 800 points of basic energy to produce high explosive shells. After calculating, he could produce 40 high explosive shells. Then, after these 40 high explosive shells received a 100-fold increase¡­ Grimm was excited just thinking about it. He immediately ordered to produce shells. As he gave the manufacturing order, high explosive shells were quickly produced. [ Acquired: high explosive shells x 1! ] [100-fold increase has taken effect! ] [ High explosive shells X 1 has a 100-fold increase. Acquired energy-gathering detonation shells x 1! ] ¡­ In less than two hours, Grimm had obtained 40 energy-gathering shock bombs. This shell was heavier than the anti-explosive shell, and its head was slightly longer. Grimm nodded in satisfaction and checked the attributes of the energy-gathering detonation shell. [ Energy-gathering detonation shell] [ Description: it has a greater explosive force, and the shock wave of the explosion can cause shock explosion damage to nearby objects. ] ¡°Awesome!¡± Not only was the power of the shell great, it could also cause double damage. The explosion itself could cause a huge amount of damage, and the shockwave could even hit the target near the explosion point. ¡°Alright, with this thing, I don¡¯t have to worry about the dangers in the ruins!¡± Grimm would arrive at the coordinates of the large-scale ruins in over than 20 hours. Taking advantage of the current energy shortage, he needed to take a good rest. When the 1000 basic energy points were released tomorrow, he still had to make some poison slurry bombs. This way, there would be no room for error! Grimm entered the sleeping cabin and began to sleep comfortably. But on the other side, more than a dozen teams were busying themselves in order to gather the strong ores that Grimm needed. ¡°Leader, I traded another 50 fiery ores!¡± ¡°Go and get another 50!¡± ¡°What? Leader, isn¡¯t there only a 50-piece mission?¡± ¡°I¡¯ve just received news that the price of that data card has increased. Tell everyone that the previously announced mission has doubled!¡± ¡°This¡­ Grimm is too f*cking evil!¡± ¡°Hurry up and go. That data card is extremely important to our team!¡± While Grimm was sleeping, not only were there many people who were running around to trade and plunder fiery ores, even the communication channel was filled with information about the high price of fiery ores. [ Buying fiery ores at a high price, private chat if you have any! ] [ Those who have fiery ores come to me, the price is absolutely fair! ] [ Don¡¯t you f*cking steal my business! ] [ I¡¯m definitely going to take that data card in Grimm¡¯s hand! ] Chapter 14 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Four hours later, Grimm woke up from his hibernation chamber yawning. When he just cleared his mind, he saw a bunch of private messages. [ ¡°Boss, can it be cheaper?¡± ] Grimm straight up closed this person¡¯s private message. [ ¡°Our team has already saved up 500 pieces of fiery ores. Can we use other materials instead of the fiery ores for the rest of the deal?¡± ] [Bboss, I have a lot of dense metals. Let¡¯s use dense metals to trade! ] ¡­ Grimm closed more than ten private messages consecutively and finally saw a player who had gathered all the materials. [ I have already gathered 600 pieces of fiery ores. Can we trade now? ] ¡°Oh? There are really players who have gathered enough materials!¡± Grimm smiled. 600 pieces of fiery ores for data cards. He was earning regardless. He decisively sent the transaction content to the private message interface. In the next moment, the other party chose to trade. [ Transaction successful. Obtained: fiery ore X600! ] Grimm was overjoyed to receive these 600 pieces of fiery ores. With so many fiery ores, he could make many shells. From today onwards, he did not have to worry about the issue of ammunition reserves. He checked the time. There was still more than an hour before the next day. Grimm picked up the toast and French fries and enjoyed his delicious breakfast. The bread was soft and the French fries were fragrant and crisp. It was delicious and filled his stomach. Grimm drank another portion of nutrient purified water and felt more energetic. Currently, his food reserves were little. Although it was not a problem to last for a period of time, it was not a long-term solution. Thinking about this, he came to the high-efficiency and high-yield planting base. Grimm almost laughed out loud when he looked at it. This planting base was really efficient! In just two days, the eight seeds had grown into thick and strong seedlings. The seedlings were more than a meter tall. If it was a normal plant, it was absolutely impossible for it to grow so fast. The eight seedlings seemed to be of two varieties, but Grimm still couldn¡¯t tell what kind of crops they were. ¡°Grow quickly. When you mature and bear fruits, I won¡¯t have to worry about rations!¡± Grimm watered them again and returned to the operating table. At this time, a flashing light spot appeared on the radar scanning map. ¡°Ruins?¡± Grimm couldn¡¯t help but be excited. However,, there was still a long distance. Looking out of the window, he couldn¡¯t see anything at all. Just as he was anxiously waiting, a notification appeared on the operating table. [ Notification, the energy supply for today has been provided! ] Grimm looked at the energy bar. He now had 1260 basic energy points. ¡°Beautiful!¡± Grimm smiled! Now he could make poison slurry bombs! But.. ¡°Wait! Can I check in now?¡± In the next moment, he quickly opened the system interface. [ Ding! Check in successful. Obtained extended magazine light machine gun x 1! ] [ Extended magazine light machine gun x 1 received a 100-fold increase. Obtained heavy firepower Gatling gun! ] ¡°What the hell?¡± ¡°Gatling Gun?¡± ¡°This is too f*cking exciting!¡± In front of Grimm, a portable Gatling gun instantly appeared, but.. When he tried to lift up Gatling gun, he encountered difficulties. ¡°This is too f*cking heavy¡­¡± Grimm stared at this Gatling gun and opened the attribute description gloomily. [ Heavy firepower Gatling gun ] [ Description: it has a strong firepower and comes with 1000 machine gun bullets. It is fast and powerful, but can only be used by an exoskeleton or a mech. ] ¡°So that¡¯s how it is!¡± Grimm smiled. He had a set of exoskeleton! He immediately dived into the Disintegrator exoskeleton. When he tried to pick up the Gatlin gun this time, it was much easier. It made sense. This kind of weapon could not be installed on the spaceship and could only be used by the players themselves. How could it not be compatible with the exoskeleton or the mech? Thinking of the mechs, Grimm felt an inexplicable sense of anticipation. ¡°I hope the system can reward me with a mech to play with next time!¡± Grimm wore the exoskeleton and carried the heavy firepower gatling gun. He walked around the cabin a few times, but he did not go outside to test his gun. There was no other reason. Grimm did not have more machine gun bullets. These 1,000 machine gun bullets looked like a lot, but with Gatlin¡¯s firing speed, it would not last long. ¡°I have to think of a way to get bullets in the future!¡± He shook his head, put down the Gatlin, and climbed out of the exoskeleton. Now that the energy was sufficient, it was time to create the poison slurry bomb. He opened the technology construction interface and checked the manufacturing principle. [ Poison slurry bomb: 10 basic energy points, common alloy X 5, poisonous liquid x 5] The materials and energy were enough! Manufacture it! As Grimm gave the order, the first poison slurry bomb was created. Almost at the same time, a system notification appeared. [100 times amplification has taken effect! ] [ Poison slurry explosion X 1 has received a 100-fold increase, poison slurry shrapnel x 1! ] Seeing the notification, Grimm was pleasantly surprised. He quickly checked the attributes of the poison slurry shrapnel. [ Poison slurry shrapnel ] [ Description: after attacking the target, it will release a small amount of poison slurry and shoot out six more poison slurry bombs in six different directions, causing a low amount of damage. However, the range of the attack has been greatly increased. ] ¡°Oh sh*t?¡± ¡°I like this amplification!¡± The poison slurry bombs were originally area of effect damage. After a 100 times amplification, the poison slurry shrapnel bomb obtained would further expand the attack range. If a large number of monsters appeared, he could use this thing to kill a large number of them in one shot! Grimm created 20 poison slurry shrapnel bombs in one go, consuming 200 basic energy points. The remaining 1,060 points of basic energy could power the high-energy pulse heavy cannon to fire five times. It could be considered that exploring the ruins was foolproof. At this time, through the window of the spaceship, he could already see the hexagon-shaped ruins in front of him. Ruins? Grimm felt that it was more like an abandoned space base. Looking at its size, it was about a few times larger than his own spaceship. He was looking forward to the resources inside. Suddenly, the control panel issued a warning. [ Warning: unknown danger detected ahead! ] [ Analyzing¡­ ] [ There are mechanical threats, biological threats and biochemical threats in the target location! ] [ Should we approach the target? ] Grimm frowned. He did not expect the ruin to be so complicated. But since he was already here, how could he give up so easily? ¡°Continue to approach!¡± In the next moment, Grimm gave some more orders. ¡°All equipment enter combat mode!¡± ¡°High-energy pulse heavy cannons, begin charging. Get ready to fire!¡± ¡°Six-barrel rotating rapid-fire turrets, load high-explosive shells, get ready to fire!¡± As Grimm gave out one order after another, the equipment on the spaceship began to operate at high speed. In the next moment, Grimm suddenly saw more than a dozen small lights flying out of the hexagon ruins opposite him. Looking at their trajectories, they were not artillery shells. [ Warning: Enemy spacecrafts ahead! ] Chapter 15 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation More than ten small dots were rapidly approaching. Grimm¡¯s eyes were fixated on the radar map. These small spaceships had yet to enter the firing range. However, they were about to open fire! In the next moment, the first small dot appeared within the firing range. ¡°Open fire!¡± Grimm instantly gave the order to attack. Almost at the same time, the six-barrelled rotating rapid-fire turrets emitted a series of violent explosions. One after another, the high-explosive shells flew towards the first spaceship that entered the range. Grimm saw five or six light spots rapidly colliding into the small spaceship. In an instant, bursts of explosive flames appeared in his field of vision. However, in less than a second, the other spaceships also entered the firing range one after another. The six-barrelled rapid-fire turrets quickly locked onto the targets with the assistance of radar. However, there were too many enemy spaceships. Although the six-barrel turret had already fired more than a dozen shells in an instant, there were still some that escaped the net and rushed toward Grimm¡¯s spaceship. [ Warning: enemy spaceships are launching an attack! ] ¡°Evade!¡± Grimm gave the order and the entire spaceship quickly changed its trajectory. The spaceship¡¯s huge propulsion force adjusted the direction of the spaceship three times in less than five seconds. Pulse beams brushed past the edge of the spaceship. However, Grimm¡¯s spaceship were still hit by more than a dozen attacks due to the density of the enemy attacks. Boom! Boom Boom Boom! [ Warning: the external structure of the spaceship has been damaged! ] [ Warning: the high-explosive shells have been exhausted! ] ¡°Damn it!¡± Grimm did not expect that these small spaceships were so agile. He had only killed eight out of more than a dozen enemy spaceships! ¡°Use energy-gathering detonation bombs, single shot!¡± If he continued to pour out the cannonballs at all costs like before, his 40 energy-gathering detonation bombs would be quickly depleted. And against these small spaceships, it was even less worth to use his high-energy pulse heavy cannons. With the order given, the cannonballs were quickly reloaded. In the next moment, the six-barrel rotating rapid-fire turrets fired the single shots. Boom! A loud sound was emitted from the muzzle of the cannon. Almost at the same time, a light spot rapidly smashed into an enemy spaceship that was approaching. In an instant, a ball of flame exploded. ¡°Well done!¡± Grimm clenched his fists. Next, he saw subtle ripple appear with the spaceship as the center. In less than a second, the two spaceships next to the spaceship were attacked by a shock wave. In an instant, two balls of flame exploded. One cannonball killed three enemy spaceships! ¡°The energy-gathering shockwave bomb is really powerful!¡± ¡°Continue!¡± ¡°The six-barrel rotating speed cannon, kill the remaining four spaceships!¡± Boom! Another loud sound. The cannonball flew out and directly hit the hull of one of the spaceships. When it exploded, it quickly released a huge shockwave. On its left side, another spaceship instantly exploded! ¡°Beautiful! There are still two more spaceships!¡± Before Grimm finished his words, another spaceship was hit. The other small spaceship beside it also instantly exploded. At this moment, more than ten spaceships released from the hexahedron ruin were all finished off by Grimm. Through this not-so-intense battle, Grimm witnessed the power of the energy-gathering detonation bomb. In the first half of the battle, Grimm used up all the high-explosive cannonballs and only killed half of the enemy spaceships. However, after switching to the energy-gathering detonation bombs, he only fired three of them and wiped out all the remaining spaceships. ¡°I still have 37 energy-gathering detonation bombs. That¡¯s enough. What else do you have? Show me!¡± Grimm sneered slightly and looked at the hexahedron ruin that was getting closer and closer. At this moment, he discovered that flickering light spots had actually appeared on the hexahedron ruin. Those light spots floated around the relic and looked much smaller than the spaceship. ¡°What is this?¡± [ Hint: energy defense array detected. The spaceship cannot pass through. Request to activate the high-energy pulse heavy cannon to break through! ] ¡°What? There¡¯s an energy defense array?¡± Hearing this, Grimm roughly understood. This energy defense array should be a shield array formed by countless energy shields. ¡°Attack?¡± ¡°No!¡± Grimm ordered the spaceship to hover in place. Then, he began to check the damaged external structure of the spaceship. ¡°Can the damaged external structure be repaired?¡± [ Hint: repair requires a some of the dense alloy! ] Dense alloy. He had plenty of these things! ¡°Repair it immediately!¡± As Grimm gave the order, the surface of the spaceship flickered with waves of welding white light. Grimm stopped to repair the spaceship from time to time because he was afraid of encountering some powerful enemies. He only hoped that he could enter the ruins in his best condition. Moreover, he wasn¡¯t going to neglect all of the materials, including those small spaceships that were destroyed previously. [ The spaceship has been repaired! ] A few minutes later, the external structure of the spaceship was completely repaired. Grimm smiled and gave the order to the high-speed automatic mechanical claw. ¡°Capture the resources nearby!¡± With this, the spaceship began to approach the scattered fragments of the spaceship with the mechanical claw. [ Acquired: dense metal x 1! ] [ Dense metal X 1 has a 100-fold enhancement. Obtained dense metal x 100! ] [ Acquired: Smart Cell X 1! ] [ Smart cells can receive a 100-fold enhancement. Obtained smart cell x 100! ] .. ¡°Smart cells?¡± Grimm looked at the introduction of the intelligent cells in confusion. [Smart cells ] [ Description: a kind of intelligent cosmic creature, a huge single-celled creature with strong adaptability. It is often used as a computing unit for biological machinery. It is a good biological CPU material! ] ¡°Oh sh*t?¡± ¡°This thing is so powerful?¡± Grimm looked at the smart cell in his hand in surprise. This thing was about the size of his fist. It was soft and its surface was a layer of wriggling gray skin. It did not look like a single-celled creature at all. ¡°Let me see what things can be made with you!¡± Grimm put away the disgusting-looking single-celled creature and opened the technology construction interface. Sure enough, with the acquisition of smart cells, he unlocked a new manufacturing principle. [ Smart analysis workstation: 200 basic energy points, smart cells x100, glass x50, common alloy x50, chip module x10] [ Description: can replace the console, possesses more powerful computing and analysis ability. ] Grimm smiled slightly. Since he had enough energy and materials, he might as well make it now! ¡°Make it now!¡± Grimm gave the order and the smart analysis workstation began construction. In less than ten minutes, a new operating table appeared in front of him. Before he had time to look carefully, he heard a new system notification. [100 times amplification has taken effect! ] [ Smart analysis workstation has received a 100-fold increase. Acquired enhanced database analysis workstation! ] Chapter 16 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation ¡°Enhanced Database Analysis Workstation?¡± Grimm dazed for a moment and checked the description. [ Enhanced database analysis workstation ] [ Description: Not only does it have powerful analytical and calculative ability, it also has a rich database that can analyze and explain various situations encountered, providing the most detailed information for the operator. ] ¡°What? Is it really that awesome?¡± Grimm was a little doubtful, but in the next moment, the workstation suddenly emitted a mechanical electronic sound. [ Captain Grimm, the internal information of the ruins in front has been retrieved. Do you want to read it? ] ¡°Read!¡± ¡°Eh? Captain?¡± Grimm discovered that after the spaceship¡¯s control panel was replaced with this enhanced data analysis workstation, it seemed to be more humane. [ Captain Grimm: The data has been retrieved! ] [ Haisar race space exploration base: ] [ Description: This base is shaped like a hexahedron and has a huge living space. Originally, there were 2,000 Haisar race beings living there. However, due to the capture of an unknown space life form, the base was completely destroyed within a short 24 hours. Now, there are no survivors inside. Only some of the outer area machines are still functioning normally. ] Grimm frowned deeply. It was obvious that the main threat inside the base was the lifeforms. Of course, it was not just one but a group of them. ¡°Fortunately, I have enough poisonous plasma cluster bombs. It shouldn¡¯t be a problem to deal with these lifeforms!¡± Despite thinking this way, Grimm was still a little doubtful. A huge space base with more than 2,000 Haisar race beings living in it. How could it be damaged in just 24 hours? The spaceship was still slowly approaching. Grimm shifted his gaze to those glowing spots. On each glowing spot, there was a translucent energy shield. [ Captain Grimm, received a message from the Haisar race space exploration base! ] ¡°What message?¡± [ ¡°Danger! Please do not approach!¡± ] Grimm took a deep breath. This warning should have been set up by the Haisar beings before they died. It seemed that something terrible must have happened inside this base. ¡°Even so, I can¡¯t give up on the resources in the base!¡± Grimm turned around and looked at the monitor of the workstation. The current energy of 1020 points was enough to use. ¡°High-energy heavy pulse cannon, prepare to break through the defensive array!¡± ¡°Once the breach is opened, enter the ruins immediately!¡± ¡°Now¡­ Fire!¡± Boom! Following Grimm¡¯s command. The high-energy heavy pulse cannon instantly shot out an energy beam. Almost at the same time, the beam broke through the energy shield. Where the beam passed, the small aircrafts that released the shield exploded one after another. The other small aircrafts quickly gathered over, trying to fill up the gaps in the defense shield. However, before they could finish redeploying, Grimm¡¯s spaceship rushed over. At this time, there were no more obstacles in front of Grimm. Through the window, he could clearly see the huge space base. The sealed metal plate shut the exterior of the base. Grimm¡¯s spaceship searched around the base for a while and found more than a dozen closed gates. However, these metal gates were not very strong. Grimm only fired two energy-gathering detonation bombs to blast open one of the gates. The spaceship passed through the broken gates and entered the dark interior of the base. After passing through a wide corridor, Grimm entered an empty spaceship warehouse. The space here was wide, but there was nothing in it. A path leading to the deeper interior of the base was only two to three meters high, so the spaceship could not enter. Of course, Grimm could choose to directly blast this place to pieces, but it would be too wasteful of cannonballs, and it might damage the path inside the base. ¡°Looks like I¡¯m going down.¡± Grimm ordered the spaceship to stop in this warehouse. Then, he put on the spacesuit and entered the Disintegrator exoskeleton suit. Of course, he also brought along the heavy firepower gatling that he had just obtained. In such a dangerous place, it would really feel a little dangerous if he didn¡¯t have the Gatling machine gun. The gate of the pedestrian passage had been damaged. Although it was still closed, Grimm pushed the entire door panel down using a little force from the exoskeleton. Rumble.. In front of him, a wide corridor appeared. Grimm looked inside and instantly froze. ¡°What are these things¡­¡± In this corridor, several corpses could be seen lying on the ground not far away. Grimm approached to take a look and found that the corpses lying on the ground were all gray. Through the glass cover of the dead beings¡¯ spacesuit, Grimm saw many distorted faces. Suddenly, Grimm¡¯s spacesuit issued a warning. [ Warning: dangerous unknown microorganisms found! ] ¡°Dangerous unknown microorganisms? Can you collect them?¡± [ No collection equipment! ] Grimm felt a little helpless and continued to move forward. Not long after, he saw a fork in the road. Through the fork, Grimm came to a sealed room. There were many mechanical and electronic equipment here that could be broken down into some materials and taken away. Grimm was about to deal with it when he suddenly found two black metal boxes in the corner of the room. ¡°Sh*t? There are treasure boxes?¡± Grimm hurried to the side of the boxes and chose to open them. [ You have opened a hidden treasure box x 1! ] [ Acquired: Machine Gun Bullets X 1000! ] [ Acquired: Speed-reducing hourglass X 1! ] ¡°What the hell?¡± As soon as Grimm opened the first treasure chest, he received two rare items. Needless to say, machine gun bullets were exactly what he needed to replenish. As for the speed-reducing hourglass¡­ Grimm held the hourglass in his hand and looked at it. Then, he opened the description of the item. [ Speed-reducing hourglass ] [ Description: after using it, the speed of all objects within a 100-meter radius will be reduced by 50% , except for the user. However, after using the hourglass for ten times, it will automatically be scrapped! ] ¡°The item is not bad, but there is a limit to the number of times it can be used. However, 10 times is not a small number!¡± Grimm happily put away the speed-reducing hourglass and turned to open another hidden treasure chest. [ You have opened the hidden treasure chest x 1! ] [ Acquired: Machine Gun Bullets x 1000! ] [ Acquired: High Explosive Grenade x 5! ] ¡°This thing came just in time!¡± Although Gatlin had heavy firepower, it was still a machine gun after all. Its lethality and explosive power could not be compared to a high explosive grenade. Grimm opened the attribute description. [ High explosive grenade ] [ Description: A grenade with explosive power. Its power is close to that of a high explosive cannonball! ] ¡°Beautiful!¡± Grimm smiled. With this high explosive grenade, his combat power wouldn¡¯t just be increasing by a little bit. Grimm was still laughing when suddenly, he heard a series of heavy footsteps coming from outside. [ Warning: an unknown dangerous creature is approaching! ] ¡°What the f*ck?¡± ¡°I just got my equipment and a monster is coming?¡± Chapter 17 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation The sound of footsteps was getting closer and closer, and it sounded very dense. Grimm did not have time to decompose the mechanical equipment. He picked up the Gatlin and rushed out. As soon as he arrived at the door, Grimm saw a large group of monsters swarming over from the depths of the tunnel. Under the dim light, Grimm saw that the monsters all had hard skin, four strong legs, no eyes on their heads, and big mouths, but they were tightly closed. Although they were inside the base, it was still a vacuum environment. To be able to survive in such an environment meant that they had a strong adaptability. But¡­ ¡°The weapon in my hand is the heavy firepower Gatlin!¡± Grimm sneered, picked up Gatlin and began to fire fiercely. Da Da Da Da Da.. The monsters gathered in the tunnel, which instead allowed Grimm to not need to aim accurately. Bullets poured out rapidly. The monsters on the other side kept pushing forward, but in less than 10 seconds, more than 10 monsters in the front row were mercilessly killed by machine gun bullets. Grimm thought that the other monsters would continue to rush over. However, the monsters at the back saw that Grimm¡¯s firepower was too strong, actually turned around and fled one by one. ¡°Run? The base is only so big. Let¡¯s see where you can run to!¡± He did not continue to chase after them. The reason was very simple. Grimm wanted to check if these monsters that had just been killed could be decomposed into materials. Grimm approached the corpse of a monster and began to check. [ Acquired: giant-mouthed eyeless beast (corpse) x 1! ] [ Giant-mouthed eyeless beast ] [ Description: a low-level monster that can withstand a vacuum environment. When hungry, one can eat pieces of eyeless beast meat. However, it has minor toxicity. Consuming it will cause a non-fatal headache! ] ¡°This thing¡­ Only a fool would eat it!¡± Grimm shook his head. He was about to give up when he suddenly paused. ¡°I won¡¯t eat it, but it doesn¡¯t mean that others won¡¯t eat it too!¡± There were still countless players who could not fill their stomachs. Even if this thing was poisonous, it could still satisfy their hunger. There were probably countless people who would fight over it. In that case, this food can not be wasted! Grimm smiled slightly and squatted down to use the kinetic arm of the exoskeleton to dissect the corpse. [ Obtained: eyeless beast meat x 4! ] [ Obtained: eyeless beast meat x 4! ] ¡­ In one breath, Grimm dissected all 20 large-mouthed eyeless beast corpses on the ground. He obtained a total of 80 pieces of eyeless beast meat. Next, he opened the trading center. [ Eyeless beast meat x 1, trading dense alloy x 2! ] Grimm copied 80 pieces of the same trade in one breath. Then, he opened the communication channel and released a message to the players. [ I have eyeless beast meat. Those without food can buy it for two dense alloys! ] As soon as Grimm sent the message, he received a trade notification. [ Trade successful. Obtained: dense alloy x 2! ] ¡°So fast?¡± Just when Grimm was puzzled, he saw someone curse him in the communication center. [ Holy shit! I was wondering why the food was so cheap. When I bought it back, it was f*cking poisonous! ] [ Poisonous? Then forget it! ] [ Isn¡¯t this scamming? ! ] Grimm was unhappy when he heard what they said. [ If there¡¯s no poison, can it be sold at such a low price? If you want to take small advantages, don¡¯t buy it. I¡¯ve said it clearly. The meat of the eyeless beast is poisonous, but it won¡¯t kill you. It¡¯s only a slight headache. This price has some side effects. It won¡¯t be a loss if you buy it to save your life! ] [ This¡­ Alright, I¡¯m really starving! ] [ I want two. It¡¯s better to be poisoned than to starve to death! ] [ I just ate one. Although it¡¯s a headache, it doesn¡¯t seem to have much of an effect! ] Seeing that someone had already tested the poison, those players who didn¡¯t have any food began to rush to buy. Grimm had just logged out of the communication channel when he saw a series of trade notifications. In less than five minutes, the 80 pieces of eyeless beast meat in his hand were sold out. ¡°What the hell? It¡¯s this popular?¡± Grimm smiled. There were still so many large-mouthed eyeless beasts that hadn¡¯t been killed yet. If he killed all of them and sold their meat, he could also make a fortune! This huge-mouthed eyeless beast did not have much attack power. It would die instantly if his Gatlin swept it. Grimm could not give up on such an easy prey. He quickly disassembled the mechanical equipment in the previous room. After obtaining some alloys and a few mechanical modules, he continued walking toward the interior of the tunnel. However, this group of huge-mouthed eyeless beasts were too timid. They did not dare to come out after having just killed 20 of their companions. Following the passage, Grimm entered a few more rooms and dissected some basic materials. However, he didn¡¯t see any hidden treasure chests. After a while, he came to a corner of the passage and turned around. It was the same narrow and long passage again. It was the same here. There was a room at every period of distance. Originally, Grimm thought that he wouldn¡¯t find any important materials. However, when he dissected the mechanical equipment in a room, he found a treasure chest hidden behind the mechanical equipment. ¡°Hidden Treasure Chest?¡± Grimm smiled and quickly opened the treasure chest. [ You have opened the hidden treasure chest x 1! ] [ Acquired: Base Identity Card x 1! ] ¡°Base Identity Card?¡± Grimm was slightly stunned and quickly checked the description of the item. [ Base identity card ] [ Description: can be used to open the automatic gate in the base, only for the current base. ] ¡°I see!¡± Grimm smiled and put away the black card. He continued to walk forward and came to another corner. On the other side of the corner, Grimm saw a wide space. ¡°This¡­¡± He saw that this wide room was filled with human skeletons. Beside the piles of skeletons, there were groups of large-mouthed eyeless beasts. They saw Grimm. They scurried off in all directions, but the floodgates on the opposite side were tightly closed. They had nowhere to run. ¡°Did I fall into a sheep pen?¡± Grimm smiled. There were a total of fifty to sixty large-mouthed eyeless beasts in this huge room. Moreover, they had nowhere to hide and could be easily slaughtered. After this round of harvesting, he would be able to make a huge profit in the trading center! Grimm did not hesitate and directly opened fire! Da Da Da Da Da da.. Bullets flew out from Gatlin¡¯s gun barrel. One by one, the eyeless beasts were killed in an instant. The other eyeless beasts fled in panic, but there was no way to escape. They rushed towards Grimm¡¯s direction and were immediately turned into corpses by more than ten bullets. In less than two minutes, the monsters here were cleaned up completely. However, just when Grimm was full of joy, a loud sound suddenly came from behind the closed gate. Bang! In an instant, the entire space trembled. Grimm saw that the closed gate had obviously been smashed and protruded a little. ¡°What the hell? What kind of abnormal monster is locked in here?¡± Bang! Another loud sound. The gate protruded again, but it was still not broken. Then, the thing that was locked inside tried a few more times. Seeing that there was no way to open the gate, it walked away slowly with heavy footsteps. ¡°It seems¡­ that the real danger is behind this gate!¡± Grimm let out a sigh of relief and decided not to enter the gate for the time being. He would first clean up the materials here. Chapter 18 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Soon, Grimm had dissected all the giant-mouthed eyeless beasts into pieces of meat and hung them in the trading center. In less than ten minutes, all the pieces of meat on the shelves had been sold out. Grimm shook his head. The players were really in a dire situation now. Even this kind of poisonous meat was in short supply. It was unbelievable that this kind of junk food could be traded for so many dense alloys! After dealing with the corpses of the giant-mouthed eyeless beasts, there was still a pile of bones on the ground. Grimm was not very interested in these things, but he felt that there might be something good hidden in these bones. He drove the exoskeleton to check it and actually found something. [ Acquired: Giant-mouthed eyeless beast eggs x 1! ] [ Giant-mouthed eyeless beast eggs ] [ Description: You can hatch a giant-mouthed eyeless beast, but the giant-mouthed eyeless beast is not suitable as a pet. The beast eggs can be eaten and have a minor toxicity! ] ¡°In that case, I¡¯ll sell them!¡± Grimm smiled and hung all 15 beast eggs he had collected for sale in the trading center. [ Giant-mouthed eyeless beast eggs x 1 exchanging for compact alloy x 4! ] Grimm posted this 15 times. He doubled the price because the eggs could be hatched. As for whether or not anyone would choose to hatch it, that was not something he needed to consider. As soon as the items were put on the shelves, there was a deal. Grimm had just opened the communication center and was about to promote it when he discovered that the huge-mouthed eyeless beast eggs had been sold out. [ Oh sh*t? There are beast eggs? ] [ Wait¡­ are you guys a bit too quick handed? I only hesitated for a moment and they sold out? ] [ Big brother, do you have any more? I need food! ] [ This thing can hatch. It¡¯s a waste to eat it! ] [ So¡­ You rich people bought my food to hatch pets?] ¡­ Because many players failed to get the beast eggs, they started to quarrel in the communication center. Grimm shook his head. These people really had the leisure to quarrel with each other in the communication center even though they were about to starve to death. If they had such time, wouldn¡¯t it be better to build more equipment! After closing the communication center, Grimm prepared to enter that dangerous gate. He approached the gate and used his identity card. [ Identity verification completed. The gate is opening! ] At the same time the notification appeared, the twisted metal gate opened to the sides. However, because the gate was already damaged, it only opened a slit that was just large enough to enter. Grimm approached carefully. After making sure that there was no movement inside, he drove the exoskeleton inside the gate. Most of the lighting inside the gate was damaged. It was dim. Grimm looked down and was instantly frightened by the horrifying scene. In front of him was a dead man wearing a spacesuit. The body of the dead man had been compressed by something. Upon closer inspection, Grimm found that the thing that compressed the chest and abdomen of the dead man was actually the sole of a monster¡¯s foot. ¡°Oh my god, this monster¡¯s strength is really not small.¡± The spacesuit had an internal support frame. Coupled with the strength of human bones, it was understandable if the body had been deformed by a step. However, it was really hard to imagine that the body was straight up pancaked. Grimm carefully passed by the corpse and continued to advance along a wide corridor. However, he had only taken a few steps when he suddenly heard the sound of heavy footsteps. Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! The footsteps were very close. Grimm looked around, but did not find any creatures or machinery. ¡°Could it be¡­ below?¡± Grimm listened carefully and found that the source of the sound was indeed under his feet. Obviously, the space he was in had a tunnel leading to the below. Grimm heaved a sigh of relief and continued to move forward. There were some electronic instruments in front. Grimm checked and found that the display screen of one of the instruments was still lit. He stopped and tried to operate it. A metal data cable extended out from the exoskeleton. ¡°What the hell?¡± ¡°There¡¯s such a function?¡± In the next moment, rows of information appeared. [ Data screening¡­ ] [ Important document found! ] Next, Grimm saw a very long message. [ Test subject 0831 was failed to be destroyed. All personnel are to evacuate! Experimental subject 0831 has undergone a malignant mutation after injection. It has become uncontrollable. All personnel are to evacuate and destroy the base! ] Obviously, this document had been simplified by the system of the disintegrator exoskeleton. Only the most important contents were left. ¡°Are there any other important documents?¡± In the next moment, another long message appeared. [ Test subject 0830 has achieved a major breakthrough! After the injection of test subject 0830, the strength of the test subject has been greatly increased. The strength of the test subject has been increased by 3 to 5 times. The research team is currently working test subject 0831 reagant, hoping to obtain a more powerful effect! ] Grimm suddenly understood something. According to the information revealed in the two documents, it was likely that the people of the base were researching an experimental reagent that could strengthen the body. When the experimental reagent 0830 was completed, it had made great progress. However, the experimental reagent 0831 had caused a malignant mutation in the experimental subject. This malignant mutation was so powerful that the base had decided to evacuate everyone! Then¡­ could the experimental subject be the monster in the lower level? While Grimm was puzzled, another document was displayed. [ Experimental subjects list of the 0831 experiment reagent: Louis, Harry¡­ Remington. ] This document did not seem to be very useful, but it was actually very important. What was important was not the identity of the test subjects, but the number of test subjects. Grimm counted and found that there was a total of 10 names on the list. In other words, it was very likely that there were 10 malignant mutated test subjects still alive in this base! ¡°Looks like it¡¯s not going to be easy!¡± Grimm still had a lot of bullets, but these bullets most likely could not cause harm to the test subjects. He only had five high explosive grenades as well. Even if one grenade could kill a malignant mutation test subject, he still did not have enough grenades! ¡°Let¡¯s see if there are any supplies nearby.¡± Grimm pulled out the data cable and continued to move forward. Behind more than a dozen broken monitors, Grimm found a black hidden treasure chest. [ Acquired: Hidden Treasure Chest x 1! ] [ You have opened the Hidden Treasure Chest x 1! ] [ Acquired: Machine Gun Bullets X 1000! ] [ Acquired: Sterile syringe x 1! ] ¡°Sterile syringe?¡± Grimm was stunned for a moment and suddenly realized that he seemed to have overlooked something. ¡°That¡¯s right! The most important item in this ruin should be experiment reagent 0830!¡± Experiment reagent 0830 had been proven to have no side effects. In other words, as long as he found experiment reagent 0830, Grimm could inject himself and increase his original strength by three to five times! ¡°Then I must find experiment reagent 0830!¡± Chapter 19 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation After making up his mind, Grimm continued to advance along the inner passage of the base. However, in the process, he also used the exoskeleton to decompose some basic materials. The heavy footsteps could still be heard from time to time, but Grimm was already somewhat used to it. ¡°That must be test subject 0831!¡± Grimm felt that there was probably nothing more powerful than test subject 0831 in this base. After collecting the materials here, Grimm came to the side of a gate. This gate was different from the metal gate Grimm encountered last time. It was probably a large elevator. After the identification card was verified, the elevator door opened and Grimm entered an enclosed space. Looking at the side of the elevator door, he saw several buttons. ¡°First floor, second floor, third floor¡­ fifth floor, core area.¡± The buttons on the third floor were lit, so Grimm¡¯s position was on the third floor. There were two floors above and below him, and above the fifth floor, there was a core area. Without hesitation, Grimm pressed the button for the core area. However, a notification appeared. [ Warning: the current identity card has insufficient authority! ] ¡°Insufficient authority¡­¡± Grimm was a little disappointed. It seemed that he had to find an identity card with higher authority. He had already checked the third floor, so he could only go to the other floors to check out the situation. However, Grimm did not intend to directly go to the second floor to fight with the experimental subject, so he decided to go to the first floor to take a look first. Pressing the button on the first floor, the elevator began to move. A few seconds later, the elevator door opened. It was the same dark environment. The lighting equipment on the first floor was mostly damaged. Grimm carefully walked out of the elevator and observed the situation around him. It seemed that there had been a fierce battle here. The ground was full of human bones, some of which had been completely flattened along with the spacesuits. Grimm walked a few steps in and found some damaged mechanical equipment. Grimm had intended to see if these mechanical equipment could still function, but he was attracted by a human corpse next to him. He saw a rifle beside the corpse! [ Acquired: time-delayed explosive rifle x 1! ] [ Time-delayed explosive rifle ] [ Description: this rifle uses special ammunition. After the bullet hits the target, it will delay the explosion and kill the target from the inside! ] Grimm nodded. The power of this weapon was not small. The rifle used shotgun bullets. If every shotgun bullet could delay the explosion, then the killing ability of the target could be increased by several times! If this thing was used to attack humans, it would be a waste. With the strength of the human body, there was no need to delay the explosion. The moment a rifle was fired, 80% of the humans that were hit would be dead. The delayed explosion rifle was obviously used to deal with some powerful monsters, or¡­ it was used to deal with malignantly mutated experimental subjects. Grimm checked the rifle and found that there was only one bullet left inside. ¡°I¡¯ll search for longer.¡± He began to search carefully, but after searching for a long time, he only found three bullets. As for the other rifles, most of them had been destroyed. Continuing deeper, Grimm found a huge skull fragment. Based on the appearance of the skull fragment, it was a human skull, but its size was too big, It was at least twice the size of a normal human skull. ¡°It is probably an experimental subject that was killed.¡± Grimm was a bit puzzled. It seemed that this experimental subject could be killed. In that case, why would he give up the base? Grimm walked forward and found more clues. Near the skull fragment, Grimm saw a metal nameplate. ¡°Test subject 0825, Jack.¡± Obviously, it was not only subject 0831 that had a malignant mutation. It was just that the other mutants did not cause too much damage. It was very likely that subject 0825 was accidentally released because subject 0831 had destroyed the base. Then, the base tried to subjugate them and then escape¡­ Now, Grimm had basically sorted out what had happened inside the base. However, he still could not find an identity card with higher authority. ¡°I¡¯ll go to the other floors and have a look.¡± Grimm collected all the materials that he could collect here, then went back to the elevator and pressed the button for the fourth floor. This time, a few seconds later, the elevator door had just opened when Grimm heard a fierce roar. ¡°F*ck!¡± In the dim light, he saw a huge figure madly charging toward him. In the narrow space of the elevator, Grimm felt that he would definitely lose miserably if he fought with this monster. He decisively pressed the button for the fifth floor. The elevator door closed just after it opened. Boom Boom Boom! He heard that the monster was fiercely smashing the metal gate of the elevator on the lower floor. Fortunately, Grimm reacted quickly and pressed the elevator button first, thus avoiding the disaster. A few seconds later, the elevator arrived at the fifth floor. The elevator door opened and Grimm saw rows of storage boxes. ¡°What? Storage Room?¡± Grimm smiled. If this was a storage room, then wouldn¡¯t he be rich? He left the elevator and quickly came to the storage boxes and opened them to take a look. ¡°Oh my, there are simply too many good things here!¡± [ Acquired: Light sabre X10! ] [ Light sabre ] [ Description: Has powerful attack power, and is convenient to carry. ] ¡°Such a powerful weapon and yet ten of them came at once!¡± Grimm felt that these 10 laser swords were enough to make him rich. But then, when he opened the second box, he actually got another 10 light sabres. The third box, the fourth box. Grimm opened five boxes consecutively and found a total of 50 light sabres. Putting away all these light sabres, Grimm went to the second row of storage boxes. He opened the boxes. [ Acquired: delayed explosion rifle X10! ] Grimm was stunned. He thought it was an extremely rare rifle, but here, he actually opened the box and got 10 rifles immediately. ¡°This wave is too f*king fat!¡± Grimm opened five boxes in a row and obtained 50 rifles in one go. Then, he went to the third row of storage boxes. When he opened them, he suddenly rejoiced. ¡°I have bullets!¡± [ Acquired: Time-delayed explosive bullets X100! ] [ Time-delayed explosive bullets X100] [ Description: time-delayed explosive rifle ammunition. Can cause a huge amount of explosive damage! ] Grimm kept opening boxes along the way. There was a total of 1,000 bullets in two rows of boxes. On average, each rifle could be allocated 20 bullets. ¡°Haha! I might as well become an arms dealer!¡± Chapter 20 - Last Identity Card Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Grimm cheerfully kept moving forward. He arrived at the last row of storage boxes and continued to open the boxes. [ Acquired: Rapid energy bar X 10! ] ¡°There are energy bars?¡± Grimm was slightly surprised. He quickly checked the description of the energy bars. [ Rapid energy bar ] [ Description: After using it, you can quickly replenish your physical strength and get rid of hunger! ] At the back, there was still the last row of storage boxes. Grimm opened it and looked at it. He was almost overjoyed. [ Acquired: Strong acid liquid bomb x 1! ] [ Strong acid liquid bomb ] [ Description: Strong acidic corrosive liquid inside. There is almost no explosion damage after the explosion. However, the splashed venom will corrode living things. Moreover, this bomb has a timer function. The timer can only be set for 30 seconds at most. ] ¡°With this thing, it will be much easier to deal with subject 0831!¡± Grimm opened the remaining storage boxes and got a total of five strong acid liquid bombs. There was almost nothing else in this storage room. Grimm carefully searched around and decided to take these weapons to the fourth and second floors below to deal with subject 0831. However, before the battle, he had to take a good rest and go to the trading center to sell the surplus weapons. Opening the trading center, Grimm first hung up two transactions. [ Light sabre x 1, trading dense alloy x 20! ] [ Time-delayed explosive rifle x 1, time-delayed explosive ammo x 10, trading dense alloy x 60! ] Next, he copied these transactions 50 times. He kept 10 bullets for each rifle for his own use. As soon as he put the transaction up, Grimm received trade notifications. [ Transaction successful, obtaining dense alloy x 20! ] [ Transaction successful, obtaining dense alloy x 60! ] ¡­ Although there was successful transactions, the transaction speed was really slow. Grimm opened the communication channel, intending to launch a wave of advertisments. [ Those who need weapons, quickly come to the trading center! ] As soon as Grimm¡¯s message was sent out, the communication channel exploded. [ F*ck? Am I seeing things? So many weapons? ] [ F*ck¡­ There¡¯s even a freaking light sabre? ] [ F*ck! Rifles are too expensive. I can¡¯t afford it! ] [ That¡¯s sold together with ammunition! ] [ Boss, can it be cheaper? ] ¡°Cheaper? Impossible!¡± Grimm had gotten so many rare weapons. How could he sell them at a low price? Moreover, even if he kept it at this price, he could guarantee that all the weapons would be sold out. While he was thinking, he suddenly received a private message. [¡°Boss, our team urgently needs a batch of weapons. I can offer a higher price!¡±] Upon seeing this message, Grimm immediately removed all the remaining weapons from the shelves. If someone was willing to offer a higher price, then why wouldn¡¯t he take the opportunity to earn more? He replied to that person¡¯s message. [¡°How many materials are you offering?¡±] [¡°The price of each weapon will be increased by 10 dense alloys. How about it?¡±] Grimm pondered for a moment. Just as he was about to decide on a trade, another private message suddenly came over. [ Boss, our team can add five pieces of dense alloy to the price of all the weapons. ] [ Someone has already added ten pieces of dense alloy. ] [ What? Boss, I¡¯ll add 15 pieces! ] ¡­ Grimm had a headache because there were too many private messages. These squad players increased the price by a lot at the start. But later on, they started to make increments of one. After more than ten minutes, a team finally obtained Grimm¡¯s trading agreement with the highest bid. At this time, the prices of all the weapons were doubled. [ Trade successful, obtained: dense alloy X40! ] [ Trade successful, obtained: dense alloy X80! ] ¡°Hehe! This is simply too profitable!¡± Grimm cheerfully stood up and walked towards the elevator. Next, it was time to get down to business! Grimm smiled slightly and went straight to the elevator. He pressed the button for the fourth floor. The elevator operated and soon he reached the fourth floor. However, he did not go out directly. Instead, he set up the strong acid liquid bomb that he prepared in the elevator first. The next moment, the elevator door opened. A terrifying roar was heard. The experimental subject rushed to the elevator door like it was mad. However, Grimm threw the bomb outside and closed the elevator door immediately. He pressed the button for the third floor. The experimental subject rushed to the elevator door, but the door was already closed. Grimm sneered and started counting. He set the time for the explosion to be five seconds. After counting five numbers, he heard a loud bang from above. Boom! Immediately after, he heard the experimental subject¡¯s painful roar. Grimm smiled coldly. ¡°You can slowly get eroded first¡­¡± At this time, the elevator had already arrived at the second floor. The elevator door opened, but Grimm did not see the subject on this floor appear. ¡°Eh? Where did it go?¡± Just as he was puzzled, he noticed heavy footsteps coming from above his head. ¡°What? This guy went up again?¡± Grimm was speechless. When he was on the third floor, the subject was on the second floor. When he was on the second floor, the subject went to the third floor again. Could it be that the subject knew how to use an elevator? This was really strange. If the subject knew how to use an elevator, then why was the storage room on the fifth floor not destroyed? There was only one reason. There must be other passageways between the second and third floors! Grimm entered the second floor, intending to check the supplies here. He had just walked a few steps when he saw a huge computer. He tried to start it up but found that the computer was already broken. Looking at other places, Grimm saw some huge glass jars. These glass jars were basically broken. However, he came to a conclusion. These glass jars were used to store experimental subjects. He saw a broken glass jar with the corpse of an experimental subject, which was already dried and dehydrated. He quickly collected all the materials that could be collected here. He didn¡¯t find any special items. However, when he was about to leave, he found a bulletin board hanging on the wall. ¡°Attention: all experimental reagents must be sent to the core area for unified storage and safekeeping!¡± Grimm immediately smelled the hidden information. ¡°Test reagent no. 0830 must be on the core area level!¡± Now, Grimm had basically sorted out the information within the ruins. To enter the ruins, he first had to find the first identity card and use the identity card to enter the first to fifth floors. After dealing with the experimental subject, he could obtain an identity card with higher authority and enter the top floor of the core area. And the most important item in the core area was the experiment reagent 0830. ¡°It seems that the other identity card is on the 4th Floor!¡± Grimm was not in the mood to find the secret passage on the 2nd and 3rd floors now. This was not important. He had to first deal with the experimental subject on the 4th floor and find the last identity card to enter the core area. This was the most important thing! Chapter 21 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Grimm sat in the elevator and pressed the button for the fourth floor. A few seconds later, the elevator stopped. At this time, Grimm had already set up the heavy fire Gatlin. As the elevator door slowly opened, a notification popped up. [ Warning: Dangerous gas present! ] ¡°Dangerous gas?¡± When Grimm came here the first time, he did not receive such a notification. Could it be that the corroded experiment subject 0831¡¯s body released poisonous gas? Just as Grimm thought of this, he suddenly heard an angry roar. In the next moment, he saw a giant with a distorted appearance suddenly rushing over. The surface of its body had already rotted. A lot of black liquid flowed out between the rotten flesh and skin. ¡°As expected, he¡¯s still alive!¡± Grimm didn¡¯t hesitate at all. He pulled the trigger of the heavy firepower Gatlin. In an instant, bullets poured out. ¡°Da da da da da da da¡­¡± Flames sprayed out from the barrel of the gun. The experimental subject was suddenly attacked and its body was hit by dozens of bullets in an instant. However, something that Grimm could not imagine happened. The bullets penetrated the experimental subject¡¯s skin and flesh and instantly made countless holes on his body. However, this guy only screamed in pain a few times and quickly recovered his fighting strength. The experimental subject suddenly rushed to Grimm¡¯s side and swung his heavy fist at him. Grimm shot while rolling and took advantage of the opportunity to rush behind the experimental subject and enter the inner part of the fourth floor. But when he turned around to look at the experimental subject that had missed the charge, he was suddenly stunned. ¡°This guy¡­¡± He clearly saw that there was nothing abnormal with the experimental subject¡¯s back, except for some corroded wounds. In other words, the bullet he had just fired didn¡¯t actually penetrate through the experimental subject. This was a heavy firepower Gatlin¡¯s. Even if a steel plate was hit, it would definitely be completely penetrated at such a close distance. But this guy was actually fine! Amidst his shock, Grimm saw that the subject immediately turned around. As soon as he turned around, that huge fist was exposed. Just now, Grimm had shot at least a dozen bullets into the subject¡¯s arm, but its arm was still able to attack freely. Moreover, the skin and flesh on the surface of the arm had actually peeled off. What was now exposed on the experimental subject¡¯s arm was white bones. However, the bone was obviously different from that of a normal human. It was thicker and stronger. Moreover, there were fine bone fragments connected to the joints. The outer skin and flesh of the experimental subject could only be considered as an accessory on his body. The muscles that were actually exerting force were actually hidden under this white bone. Grimm had never seen such a mutated human before. His expression was somewhat absent-minded. However, in the next moment, the experimental subject delivered a heavy punch towards him. Bang! Grimm¡¯s entire body was sent flying. The mechanical exoskeleton in his left arm instantly malfunctioned. [ Warning: The disintegrator exoskeleton body is damaged. Urgent repair is required! ] [ Warning: The outer protection of the spacesuit is damaged. Urgent repair is required! ] Grimm suddenly became alert. One had to know that it was still fine if the exoskeleton of the body was damaged. Once the spacesuit was seriously damaged, he would definitely die if he was exposed to this environment that was filled with poisonous gas. ¡°Switch to a rifle!¡± The opponent¡¯s bones were too hard. It seemed that normal machine gun bullets would not be able to cause any damage to him. In that case, let¡¯s try the delayed explosion of the rifle now. The delayed explosion of this thing could cause more damage. Moreover, the weight of the rifle was lighter, so he could use it for defense more easily. Grimm had just changed to the rifle and pulled the trigger. Bang! In an instant, the pellets was released. More than ten shells were embedded in the chest of the experimental subject. A second later, the pellets suddenly exploded. Bang! At the same time of the explosion, Grimm saw that the flesh on the chest of the experimental subject was blasted away, revealing the neatly arranged bones that looked like a breastplate. ¡°Oh my God!¡± Grimm was speechless. This thing almost had no weaknesses. Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom! Grimm fired five consecutive shots. The bone fragments on the chest of the experimental subject were shaken by the explosions time and time again, and finally some cracks appeared. But this degree of toughness had already greatly shocked Grimm. If it was the large-mouthed eyeless beast, the rifle in his hand would definitely kill one with one shot at a time. But this experimental subject actually had such a powerful defense. ¡°Looks like I can only use high explosive grenades!¡± Grimm had obtained five high explosive grenades when he entered this ruin. He originally didn¡¯t want to use these things lightly, but looking at the power of this test subject, if he still didn¡¯t use them, he was afraid that his life would be over. He jumped behind abruptly and dodged the test subject¡¯s heavy punch. Almost at the same time, he threw a high explosive grenade at the test subject¡¯s feet. Then he immediately squatted down and used the cover here to block the damage caused by the explosion. Boom. The grenade exploded with a loud bang. However, when Grimm raised his head to look at the subject, he found that a high-explosive grenade had only caused a few cracks on the bone of the subject¡¯s right leg. As black liquid flowed out bit by bit, the cracks on the bone had actually begun to heal. Looking at the chest of the subject again, Grimm was stunned. The bone fragment that had previously cracked on the chest had now completely healed. This kind of healing ability was simply too abnormal. ¡°I can¡¯t let him heal!¡± Grimm immediately pulled the trigger and aimed at the experimental subject¡¯s injured right leg and fired repeatedly. Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom! The sound of explosions came one after another. The leg bone that was just about to heal suddenly cracked even more. The experimental subject endured the intense pain and rushed toward Grimm. But Grimm had already found the trick. He simply took out two rifles and held one tightly in one hand, frantically dodging the opponent¡¯s attack. As long as he had the opportunity, he aimed at the experimental subject¡¯s right leg and fired. Finally, after more than a dozen rounds of scattered bullets exploding, a huge wound appeared on the experimental subject¡¯s right leg. Grimm took the opportunity to predict the position and threw another grenade. Boom! With a loud sound, the experimental subject¡¯s right leg was completely broken. The huge body fell to the ground. Grimm turned around and fired five or six shots at the experimental subject¡¯s wound. Boom Boom Boom.. Without the protection of the bones, the internal flesh and blood were completely destroyed by the damage caused by the explosion of the bullets. The experimental subject let out a painful roar, but it was already difficult for him to stand up. Grimm changed to Gatlin, pulled the trigger, and fired at the wound. Da Da Da Da Da.. The experimental subject¡¯s skeleton was shattered by Grimm from the inside. Under the fierce impact of the bullet, the entire waist of the experimental subject was turned into a pile of fragments. Finally, the experimental subject stopped moving and was completely dead. Grimm panted heavily. Although the exoskeleton of his body had helped him conserve his physical strength, this experience still made him feel very tired. He wanted to sit down and drink some water, but the problem was that the place was now scattered with poison gas. He could not take off the spacesuit mask. Chapter 22 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation ¡°I have to hurry up!¡± Grimm quickly examined the corpse of the experimental subject and tried to use the disintegrator exoskeleton to find some useful materials in the corpse. [ Obtained: hard mutated bones x 1! ] [ Hard mutated bones ] [ Description: can be used to make weapons. It is a very rare material. ] Grimm nodded and continued to disintegrate. After more than ten minutes, he obtained ten hard mutated bones. Other than that, he found nothing. Shaking his head, Grimm felt that he was at a loss. In order to kill this experimental subject, he actually used up so many of his weapons and ammunition. It was really not worth it. But on second thought, if the identity card with higher authority was here, then it was actually worth spending so much effort! Grimm began to search for materials on the fourth floor. After disintegrating some equipment into basic materials, he found a black treasure chest in a hidden corner. ¡°Hidden treasure chest? Could it be here?¡± Grimm nodded and opened the treasure chest. [ Acquired: Advanced Authority Identity Card X 1! ] [ Acquired: Combat Protection Spacesuit X 1! ] ¡°What? There¡¯s unexpected loot?¡± Grimm didn¡¯t need to check the description of the advanced clearance identity card to know that it was used to enter the core area. However, Grimm had to take a good look at this combat protection spacesuit. [ Combat protection spacesuit ] [ Description: It has a greater defense. Ordinary shrapnel cannot penetrate it. Moreover, compared to ordinary spacesuits, it is more flexible to wear. ] Grimm smiled. It seemed that he did not suffer a loss this time. Not only did he get an advanced authorization identity card, but he also got a spacesuit that was suitable for combat. Coincidentally, his spacesuit had been damaged. When he returned to the spaceship, he immediately changed into this new spacesuit to take a look. Grimm put away the damaged spacesuit and returned to the elevator. This time, he used the advanced authorization identity card. He pressed the button in the core area and the elevator began to move upwards. Sure enough, with this ID card, there would be no obstruction in entering the core area. The elevator door opened. Grimm found that the core area was not large, but all the equipment inside was intact. As he entered this floor, all the lights in the room were turned on. And at the elevator door, there was actually a gate barrier. [ Please show your ID card for verification! ] Grimm didn¡¯t take out his ID card immediately when he saw the notification, because he found that there were two small pulse cannons aimed at him on both sides. Although there was no problem with the ID card, he didn¡¯t match with the corresponding information on the ID card. If this was discovered by the control system of the core area, then it would be dangerous. Grimm pressed the button to close the elevator door and then took out two rifles. In the next moment, he opened the elevator door again. The same prompt appeared. [ Please show your ID card for verification! ] ¡°Verification my ass!¡± Boom! Boom! In an instant, Grimm pulled the trigger and the two rifles were aimed at the two pulse cannons. [ The core area is under intrusion! ] This action aroused the alarm of the core area system. The barrel of the pulse cannon was immediately charged, but before it was fully charged, it was completely destroyed by the explosive force of the scattered shells. The two pulse cannons on the left and right were taken care of! Grimm was about to forcefully break in when he suddenly saw more than a dozen mechanical guards coming from the inside of the core area. These mechanical guards were equipped with pulse cannons on the left and right hands. If he was hit by these things, he would definitely die. ¡°Alright!¡± Grimm jumped to the side and conveniently threw out the remaining three grenades. In an instant, the sound of explosions connected together. More than ten mechanical guards were about to attack Grimm, but half of them were destroyed by the grenades. The remaining mechanical guards were completely destroyed by Grimm¡¯s rifle. ¡°This defense isn¡¯t even as strong as the No. 0831 experimental subject!¡± Grimm shook his head and walked toward the inner part of the core area. After bypassing some mechanical equipment, he came to a control panel. He tried to operate it and found that the control panel had completely failed and could not control the operation of the base. ¡°I wanted to see if I could find the information of test subject 0831. It seems that I can only find it myself!¡± Grimm shook his head. He bypassed the control panel and arrived at another gate. Using the high-level identity card, Grimm entered the next room smoothly. Here, Grimm saw one storage box after another. Opening the first storage box, Grimm found that it was actually empty¡­ Then he opened the second, the third¡­ After a moment, Grimm was speechless. The storage boxes here were all empty. ¡°Strange. According to the deduction of this script, the experimental reagent should be here!¡± Grimm was puzzled. He looked around again, but still found nothing. Returning to the control panel, Grimm let the exoskeleton extend the data cable and connect to the central control system in the core area. He wanted to see if he could forcibly run the system and check for the location of the experimental reagent in the system. A moment later, a notification appeared. [ Entering the system requires entering the password! ] [ The password is too complicated. It cannot be cracked in a short period of time! ] Grimm was depressed. The appearance of such a notification meant that there must be some important information hidden in the control panel. If there was no password, it would be impossible to check this important information. ¡°Damn it. Where is the password?¡± Suddenly, he remembered something. ¡°Secret passage!¡± Grimm had basically explored the entire base. If there was anything that Grimm had missed, it would be the secret passage between the second and third floors. ¡°It seems that all the clues in this ruin were not given in vain.¡± Grimm was helpless. In order to find the password, he had to go to the third floor to check the location of the secret passage. As for the experimental subjects that wandered between the second and third floors. He did not intend to face the monster head-on. Killing this thing would only give him some hard mutated bones. Although rare, compared to the consumption of weapons, it was not worth it. After spending some time, Grimm disassembled all the items that could be disassembled in the core area. He collected these materials and he took the elevator leaving the core area. This way, after he got the password, he would come back and find the storage location of reagent 0831 in the main control system. Then he could take the reagent and leave. As he was thinking, the elevator had already stopped at the door of the third floor. The elevator door opened and Grimm found that the experimental subject was not nearby. ¡°This way, it will be much easier!¡± He smiled and walked out of the elevator. He began to search carefully inside the third floor, looking for the secret entrance to the second floor. But he had already checked this place before and did not find the location of the entrance. This time, he searched for a while again, but still did not find anything. However, just as he was feeling puzzled, a piece of ceiling above his head caught Grimm¡¯s attention. ¡°Why is there a control panel here?¡± Chapter 23 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Grimm attempted to activate the control panel, and a notification appeared. [ High-level authority identification card required! ] ¡°I see!¡± Grimm nodded and took out the high-level authority card. The next moment, the verification passed. A four-square-meter ceiling above Grimm¡¯s head slowly sank. It was actually an elevator. As the elevator descended, Grimm discovered that there was actually a storage box embedded on the side of the elevator. Crack! The elevator descended to the ground. Grimm quickly opened the storage box. [ Obtained: Password Data Card X 1! ] [ Password data card ] [ Description: Used to unlock the core area¡¯s main control system. ] ¡°Got it!¡± Grimm smiled slightly. He picked up the data card and was about to leave when he suddenly heard the heavy footsteps of the experimental subject coming from above his head. This elevator was actually the floor of the previous floor. At this time, the experimental subject on the previous floor was approaching. If he didn¡¯t leave immediately, Grimm would be trapped here. Of course, it was not impossible to kill the experimental subject, but he didn¡¯t want to waste his weapon resources. Thinking of this, Grimm rushed to the elevator without hesitation. The elevator door had just opened when the experimental subject rushed in crazily. Grimm immediately closed the elevator gate. Boom! The moment the gate closed, he heard the sound of the test subject colliding outside. However, at this time, the elevator had already started to operate, and it was going up to the core area of the top floor. A few seconds later, he arrived at the control panel of the base. He immediately inserted the password data card into the control panel, and the next moment, a notification appeared. [ Password verified! ] [ System function has been damaged. Only core vault function can be activated! ] ¡°Core vault? Open it first!¡± [ Opening! ] A few seconds later, Grimm suddenly heard a ¡°Crack¡± sound coming from above his head. He looked up and saw that at the top of the core area, a hidden gate was opened. At the gate, a small escalator extended out. Grimm stepped on the escalator and entered the vault. He found that it was a very narrow space with three storage boxes inside. Grimm opened them one by one. [ Obtained: Experimental Reagent 0830 X10! ] [ Obtained: Experimental Reagent 0830 X10! ] [ Obtained: Convenient reagent injection gun x 1! ] ¡°What? So many reagents?¡± Grimm quickly checked the description of the item. [ Experimental reagent no. 0830] [ Description: The final strengthened version. After injection, one can obtain permanent strength enhancement. The degree of enhancement is ten times that of the original strength. It can only be used once! ] ¡°What the f*ck?¡± Grimm clearly remembered that in the document he read before, it mentioned that experiment reagent no. 0830 could only increase the strength by three to five times. However, this final strengthened version could actually increase strength by ten times. ¡°This is a huge earn!¡± Of course, this thing could not be used repeatedly. Otherwise, Grimm had 20 reagents. After his strength was strengthened¡­ Grimm shook his head. If it could only be used once, then the remaining 19 could be sold. He looked at the description of the convenient reagent injection gun again. [ Convenient reagent injection gun ] [ Description: An injection gun that can be used infinitely. The advantage is that it¡¯s easy to use. ] Grimm nodded in satisfaction and put away all the items. Now, the ruins had been cleaned up by him. He walked down from the vault, took the elevator, and walked all the way back. Half an hour later, he returned to the huge space where he entered the ruins before. At this moment, his spaceship was stopped in front of him. Grimm climbed onto the spaceship happily and gave the order. ¡°Spaceship, leave the ruins now!¡± As he gave the order, the engine of the spaceship started and slowly left the base. He took off his exoskeleton and spacesuit. Finally, he could relax, drink some water and eat something. After harvesting a portion of nutrient purified water, Grimm drank the water while eating toast. Occasionally, he would take out a French fry and stuff it into his mouth. After working for so long, he was really exhausted. In less than ten minutes, he drank two portions of nutrient water, and also ate a toast and two portions of French fries. After filling up his stomach, Grimm took out the convenient reagent injection gun and inserted a portion of reagent 0830. At the head of the injection gun, there was a small needle. Grimm inserted the needle into his arm and then pulled the trigger. Sizzle¡­ He heard the injection gun start to push the reagent. At the same time, his arm became swollen and painful. Fortunately, the symptoms were not serious. It was similar to the usual feeling of an injection. Three seconds later, the injection gun was finished. After the injection, the needle automatically shrank back and was automatically sterilized. Then, Grimm felt his body getting a little hot and swollen. However, this feeling was not painful. On the contrary, it felt a little comfortable. It was as if his body suddenly became more energetic. He even felt that his muscles were growing at a perceptible speed. After more than ten minutes, he clenched his fist hard and found that the muscles of his arm had actually grown a size. Although it was not obvious, he could clearly feel it. He swung his fist hard, and in an instant, he heard a gust of wind. As his strength increased, the speed of his punch also increased a little. ¡°It really works!¡± Grimm was glad that this thing did not have any side effects. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if he became a monster that was neither human nor ghost after being injected like reagent 0831. However, he had to admit that test subject 0831 was indeed very powerful. His strength had been enhanced by 10 folds. In the future, when he used the exoskeleton, it would definitely be easier. As for the remaining 19 reagents, he might as well sell them now! Grimm opened the communication center and planned to start a wave of promotions. [ Experimental reagent 0830, after being injected, your strength can be enhanced by 10 times. If you need to buy it, come to me. I only accept high-grade materials! ] [ What the F*ck? Experimental reagent? Where did you get this thing? ] [ It¡¯s too awesome. Increase your strength tenfold! ] [ it¡¯s too expensive! I can¡¯t even afford a meal. I can¡¯t afford it! ] ¡­ Looking at the message in the communication channel, Grimm shook his head. He estimated that only some teams could afford his 19 experimental reagents. Grimm would definitely not exchange it for ordinary materials. A permanent increase of tenfold strength. How could he sell such a good thing at a low price? While Grimm was thinking, he suddenly received a private message. ¡°Boss! I want to trade your no. 0830 experimental reagent!¡± ¡°What do you want to trade with?¡± Grimm sent a message. A few seconds later, the other party sent a message. ¡°Can I trade no. 0830 experimental reagent with energy ores?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t need energy ores!¡± [ I can trade energy ore for 300 pieces. That¡¯s a lot! ] Chapter 24 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation 300 energy ores? This was indeed a huge amount! Grimm hesitated for a moment and sent a trade message. One second later, Grimm lost an experimental reagent and obtained 300 energy ores. However, Grimm was not very satisfied with this trade, but there was nothing he could do. The players were too poor. Special items and things like that could only be found by chance. Just as he was thinking about it, another private message popped up. [ I have a high-burst injection potion. How about trading it with one for one with your no. 0830 experimental reagent? ] ¡°This thing sounds good!¡± Grimm immediately replied. [ What are the attributes of the high-burst injection potion? ] [ After injection, you can gain high-burst in combat strength for 10 minutes. That¡¯s about it! ] [ It¡¯s only a temporary effect. ] The other party saw Grimm¡¯s reply and immediately retorted. [ Although it¡¯s only a high burst within 10 minutes, in a life-or-death battle, it¡¯s enough to change the outcome of the battle. You won¡¯t be at a loss in this transaction! ] Grimm nodded. The other party was right. To be honest, high burst injection drugs might be more practical. [ Alright! ] Grimm replied and immediately sent the transaction details. In the next moment, the transaction was completed. [ Transaction successful, obtained: high-burst injection drug x 1! ] Grimm hurriedly checked the attributes. [ High-burst injection drug ] [ Description: Posses similar effects of a stimulant. For 10 minutes after injection, your strength and speed will be greatly enhanced. This greatly increases one¡¯s combat strength! ] Although Grimm spent most of the time in the spaceship, he still needed to personally go into battle when he explored the ruins like before. He put away the high-burst injection potion and then opened a few private messages. But after that, the players he met basically wanted to use a large amount of basic materials to trade for his no. 0830 experimental reagent. Grimm was not in a hurry to sell it anyway, so he did not bother with these players anymore. The good stuff naturally had to wait for the right price to be sold. Feeling that it had been almost 24 hours since the last check-in, Grimm opened the system to see if he could check in. The next moment, a notification appeared. [ Ding! Check-in successful, obtained armed fighter light mecha x 1! ] [ Armed fighter light Mecha X 1 received 100 times amplification. Obtained armed fighter heavy mecha x 1! ] ¡°What the F*ck?¡± ¡°Mecha?¡± Grimm was overjoyed. He had been wondering when he would be able to get a mecha to play with. He had not expected the system to grant him his wish so quickly. In front of him, a mecha with heavy armor had already appeared. The height of this mecha was at least twice the height of Grimm. Its entire body was silver-gray, and it was painted with dark-red lines. On the back of the mecha, there were two huge thrusters. After entering the mecha, he should be able to directly turn on the thrusters and fly in space. Grimm could not wait to check the description. [ Armed fighter heavy mecha ] [ Description: combat type heavy mecha. It possesses even more powerful combat abilities. Its arms are equipped with two pulse cannons, a short-range cannon on its back, and two flame thrusters. All energy sources are provided by energy ores. ] Grimm nodded his head in satisfaction and opened the front hatch of the mecha. An internal space was opened at the chest of the mecha. Grimm immediately went in. After closing the hatch, he found that his body was actually connected to this mecha. He was clearly inside the mech, but his eyes seemed to be able to see the situation outside the mech. He raised his leg with some force and the leg of the mech followed his movements. Following that, his vision also started to shake slightly. Grimm felt that his experience was excellent. This feeling was no different from the sci-fi movies he had seen before. Moreover, the feeling of experiencing it personally was more realistic. He took a step forward and walked back and forth in the space of his spaceship. The sound of heavy footsteps came from under his feet. He stretched out his arms and operated the energy pulse cannon. All of his movements were so easy and smooth, as if this mecha was his own body. Of course, he did not fire the cannon. He only tried to feel the feeling of aiming and received a warning notification. [ Warning: you are aiming at the interior of the spaceship. Please do not launch an attack! ] Grimm shook his head. He opened the cabin of the mech and jumped down from it. This thing was really not suitable for playing around for no reason. After all, it consumed a lot of energy ores. To put it bluntly, the energy consumption of this thing was almost equivalent to that of a small spaceship. Of course, the mech did have the advantages of a mech. If Grimm was wearing an exoskeleton, he would need to put on a spacesuit to leave the spaceship. But it was different inside this mech. There was no need to wear other clothes. The interior was a safe enclosed space. Speaking of spacesuits, Grimm suddenly remembered. ¡°Yeah, I also got a spacesuit!¡± With a slight smile, Grimm hurriedly took out the battle protection spacesuit that he had gotten previously. This spacesuit was entirely black and very close to the body. Its joints were also light and flexible. It was simply the most suitable to wear during battle. Grimm decided that in future battles, he would put on this battle protection spacesuit and enter the mecha. That way, it was equivalent to having double insurance. ¡°Now there¡¯s another problem, the mecha¡¯s weapon¡­¡± The heavy firepower Gatlin he obtained previously could be used by the mecha. Rifles and light sabers could also be used. However, Grimm felt that he urgently needed a shield-type weapon now. Even if he put on the mecha and could obtain the mecha¡¯s protection, it would still be very troublesome if the mecha itself was damaged. ¡°How about this!¡± Grimm smiled and directly opened the communication channel. It just so happened that he had not sold much of the No. 0830 experimental reagent on hand. It would be better to use this thing to purchase shield-type defensive equipment or shield-type defensive equipment data cards. He quickly entered a line of information into the communication channel. [ Anyone who has a shield-type defensive equipment or shield-type defensive equipment data card can have priority in trading experimental reagents! ] [ Shield? I¡¯ve never seen this thing before! ] [ Who has a shield-type data card? ] [ Is it so hard to get an experimental reagent? ] .. Grimm shook his head. It seemed that there were not many players who had these things. Just when he was thinking that hope was slim, suddenly, a private message was sent over. [ Boss, our team has an energy shield data card. If you want, then give us 10 tubes of No. 0830 experimental reagent! ] [What the hell? You¡¯re too greedy!] Grimm was speechless. This guy actually asked for 10 tubes of experimental reagent. Why didn¡¯t he say that he was here to snatch it? [You need a shield type data card. We need experimental reagents, but the quantity is not enough. Even if we get it, we can¡¯t improve the entire team.] Grimm thought for a moment. [10 tubes is not impossible, but you have to give me some more things!] Chapter 25 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Seeing Grimm¡¯s condition, the other side hesitated for a moment before replying. [ How about adding some more materials? ] [ It¡¯s best if it¡¯s not common basic materials. ] [ Don¡¯t worry, we can provide you with some very rare materials. 10 pieces of magic crystal ore! ] [ Magic crystal ore? ] Grimm was a little surprised. He didn¡¯t expect the other side to actually mention a material he had never heard of before. [ Magic crystal ore is a material needed to make a shield. It only takes five to make a shield. We¡¯ll give you ten. You should be satisfied this time! ] According to the other party, this transaction was indeed very worth. In fact, they could simply trade the shield¡¯s manufacturing data card and not provide magic crystal ore. Whether or not he could make it was none of their business. In the next moment, Grimm sent the transaction content over. In less than five seconds, the transaction was completed. [ Transaction successful, obtained: Heavy shield data card X 1, magic crystal ore x 10! ] After the transaction was completed, the other side also sent a message. [ I¡¯m Brian. I hope we can be friends. If you have anything good to sell in the future, I hope you¡¯ll consider us first! ] [ No problem! ] Grimm smiled. So the other party had come with such a purpose. No wonder he seemed so sincere. He turned off the private message interface and inserted the data card into the control panel of the spaceship. In the next moment, a new manufacturing principle appeared in the technological construction interface. [ Energy shield: basic energy 100 points, compact alloy X15, mechanical module X5, magic crystal ore x5] [ Description: A heavy shield that can be used for exoskeletons or mechas. It has a strong defensive ability. When being attacked, it will activate an energy shield. Activating the energy shield will consume part of the energy reserves of the exoskeleton or the mecha. ] Grimm nodded. This thing seemed to be not bad. It was just right for his own mecha to use. With sufficient materials and enough energy, Grimm directly chose to make it. Following that, ten minutes later, a huge hexagonal shield appeared in front of him. [ Acquired: Energy Shield X 1! ] [100-fold enhancement has taken effect! ] [ Energy Shield X 1 has received 100-fold enhancement, heavy armor fighter energy shield X 1! ] Grimm smiled and quickly checked the shield that had a 100-fold increase. [Heavy armor fighter energy shield ] [ Description: The shield itself is a close-combat weapon. Charging with the shield can cause a large amount of impact damage. Its defense is even stronger. When it is attacked, it will activate the energy shield. Activating the energy shield will consume part of the energy reserves of the exoskeleton or the mech. ] This strengthened shield was obviously more powerful. However, correspondingly, it would also consume more energy for the exoskeleton or mecha. Grimm pondered for a moment. He had some doubts. With the current Mecha¡¯s energy reserves, using this heavy armor fighter energy shield was somewhat awkward. Shaking his head, he looked at the hexagonal heavy shield that was standing on the ground. Reaching out his hand, he tried to lift it up. Grimm found that he could not do it at all. Like the Gatlin, these things were specially prepared for mechas and exoskeletons. Grimm put away the heavy shield and then sold the remaining experimental reagents 0830 for a large amount of basic supplies. He was thinking of taking the opportunity to have a good rest while there was nothing else to do. But when he looked up, he found that the space supplies for today had already drifted over. ¡°Mechanical claw, capture the resources, prioritize capturing the space treasure chest!¡± As he gave the order, the mechanical claw stretched out and quickly captured a silver treasure chest. The next moment, a notification appeared. [ You have captured the space treasure chest x 1! ] [ Acquired: Dense alloy x 1! ] [ Acquired: Ordinary Alloy X 1! ] [ Acquired: Intelligence data card X 1! ] ¡°Intelligence data card?¡± Grimm was puzzled when the reward was enhanced by the system. [100-fold enhancement has taken effect! ] [ Dense alloy X 1 obtained 100-fold enhancement, dense alloy X 100! ] [ Ordinary Alloy X 1 obtained 100-fold enhancement, ordinary alloy X 100! ] [ Intelligence data card X 1 obtained 100-fold enhancement, enhanced intelligence data card x 1! ] ¡°Enhanced Intelligence Data Card?¡± Grimm was confused. He quickly opened the description of the enhanced intelligence data card. [ Enhanced intelligence data card ] [ Description: in the vast space, you can obtain information about potential danger you might encounter through the enhanced intelligence data card! ] Obviously, the information stored in this intelligence data card was really just some information. Of course, the information stored in this enhanced intelligence data card must be more comprehensive and detailed than ordinary intelligence data cards. Grimm inserted the data card into the console. Next, a string of information was read out. [ Intelligence: high-energy particle flow attack ] [48 hours later, a large amount of high-energy particle flow will appear in space. You may not be able to see these high-energy particles with the naked eye, but they could really cause your spaceship to be completely paralyzed. If you want to survive, build a complete defense system for the spaceship before the high-energy particle flow attacks! ] Although it was an enhanced intelligence data card, the information was too simple. Grimm shook his head and thought about opening the communication channel to see if there were any players discussing the intelligence data card. In the next moment, he saw a string of players¡¯ information. [ What the f * ck? What should I do? I got the intelligence data card. After reading it, it said that there will be high-energy particle flow in the future. ] [ What? Can you be more specific? ] [ I also got the intelligence data card. The original text of the intelligence said that in a very short period of time in the future, high-energy particle flow will randomly erupt in the universe. ] [ F * ck? That¡¯s it? ] [ This intelligence is too simple! ] Grimm was stunned. So there was only so little information in the intelligence data card. It seemed that he was a player who knew more about the inside story. ¡°The most important thing now is to build a defense system!¡± Grimm frowned and opened the technological construction interface, trying to find some relevant manufacturing principles. A few minutes later, Grimm found what he needed. [ Spaceship energy shield: Basic energy 100 points, magic crystal ore x 50, mechanical module x 50, common alloy x 50] [ Spaceship guardian UAV: Basic energy 20 points, magic crystal ore x 1, mechanical module X 5, compact alloy X 5] [ Spaceship electromagnetic field emitter: Basic energy 200 points, strong magnetic ore x 50, compact alloy X 50, mechanical module X 50] Grimm had a headache. There seemed to be a lot of things that he needed to make. Moreover, he needed a lot of magic crystal ore and strong magnetic ore. He had never seen these two materials in any other place except when he got some during the trade! ¡°Let¡¯s look at the functional description of these defense devices first!¡± Thinking of this, Grimm opened the description information of these manufacturing principles. Chapter 26 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation [ Spaceship energy shield ] [ Description: It can be used to defend against energy weapon attacks, but its defensive power against cannonballs is limited. Moreover, it requires a large amount of energy. It needs to be activated manually! ] Reading the description of the spaceship energy shield, Grimm nodded. This thing was very useful, but the demand for energy was probably a little too large. Moreover, he did not know when the high-energy particle flow would appear. He couldn¡¯t keep the energy shield on the whole time for the next 48 hours. Although his own energy was very abundant, he could not waste it like this. Grimm opened the description of the spaceship¡¯s guardian UAV again. [ Spaceship¡¯s guardian UAV ] [ Description: The individual defense is not strong. It mainly relies on the advantage in numbers to form an energy shield defense array. The advantage is that it can move freely. In the position that may be attacked, the energy array can stack a shield. Moreover, the guardian UAV can be used as a reconnaissance aircraft. ] Grimm nodded. He had encountered this thing when he entered the ruins. Although the combat power of the individual drones was not strong, their combined defense array was still very effective. Moreover, when a gap appeared in the shield, these drones could also move quickly to fill the gap in the defense. ¡°This must also be made!¡± Next, Grimm opened the last equipment¡¯s description information. [ Spacecraft electromagnetic field emitter ] [ Description: A low-power defense device. It mainly targets some free high-energy particles. It can be activated for a long time. ] ¡°Perfect solution!¡± Grimm was sure that this thing was the key defense device against high-energy particles. Of course, he had to make all three items. However, he still needed a large number of magic crystal ores and strong magnetic ores at the moment. By the time he checked the manufacturing principles, the mechanical claw had already captured a large number of materials, all of which had a 100-fold increase. However, the problem was that Grimm did not obtain any magic crystal ores or strong magnetic ores. This situation was not very reasonable. Since he was about to face a high-energy particle flow, logically speaking, he should have been given the resources to produce the corresponding defensive equipment. This was unless the resources near all the players were not uniform. Some players had more alloys around them, while some players had more ores around them. ¡°It seems that I can only go and trade some back.¡± Grimm opened the trading center and quickly listed the transactions. [ Dense alloy x 2 trading magic crystal ores x 1! ] [ Dense alloy x 2 trading strong magnetic ore x 1! ] ¡­ The price he offered was neither cheap nor expensive. He should be able to gather all the materials in a short period of time. As expected, after the transaction was announced, the transactions were completed one after another. [ Transaction successful, obtained: magic crystal ores x 1! ] [ Transaction successful, obtained: strong magnetic ore x 1! ] ¡­ Grimm quickly traded some magic crystal ores. Although the quantity was not enough to create an energy shield for the spaceship, it was more than enough to create a few spaceship guardian UAV¡¯s. He opened the technological construction interface. He chose manufacture. [ Spaceship guardian UAVs: Basic energy 20 points, magic crystal ores x 1, mechanical module X 5, compact alloy X 5] The materials were complete and the energy was sufficient! In the next moment, waves of welding white light flickered. In less than five minutes, a spaceship guardian UAVs was completed. [ Acquired: spaceship guardian UAVs x 1! ] Of course, Grimm was looking forward to the effect of the 100-fold enhancement! [100-fold enhancement has taken effect! ] [ Spaceship guardian UAV X 1 has received 100-fold enhancement, acquired Beehive miniature defensive spaceship! ] [ Beehive miniature defensive spaceship ] [ Description: it has a smaller size, but its defensive ability is stronger. Moreover, because its size is too small, it is extremely difficult to be targeted and attacked by the enemy. It is more suitable for scouting work! ] Grimm was stunned! Although he did not look closely at the newly created spaceship guardian UAV, its size was at least that of a range rover vehicle. However, this beehive miniature defensive spaceship was only the size of a seagull. With such a small size, it was naturally not easy for the enemy to lock onto the target. Those with poor radar function could not even discover his small spaceships. Following that, Grimm used 200 points of basic energy to build a total of 10 spacecraft guardian UAVs. Of course, without exception, they all received a 100 times amplification and became a swarm of miniature defensive spacecraft. Although there were only 10 of them, they were finally in a group. Grimm released them. Without the command from the control panel, they circled the spacecraft like satellites. Nodding his head in satisfaction, Grimm prepared to build the electromagnetic field emitter of the spaceship again. He opened the technological construction interface and checked the manufacturing principle. [ Electromagnetic field emitter of the spaceship: Basic energy 200 points, strong magnetic ore x50, compact alloy X50, mechanical module X50] ¡°Very good, build it!¡± Grimm smiled and ordered to build it. After about half an hour, the huge equipment was finally completed. As it appeared, the system notification sounded. [ Acquired: Spaceship electromagnetic field emitter x 1! ] [100-fold amplification has taken effect! ] [ Spaceship electromagnetic field emitter X 1 has acquired 100-fold amplification, acquired strong magnetic storm generator x 1! ] ¡°Magnetic Storm Generator?¡± ¡°Is this a defensive equipment or an offensive equipment?¡± Grimm opened the item¡¯s description in confusion. [ Strong magnetic storm generator ] [ Description: It has two states. The standby state provides the spaceship with a protective magnetic field that can resist the damage of high-energy particle to the spaceship. The offensive state will fire a strong magnetic storm in a specified direction, causing the enemy¡¯s electronic equipment to malfunction or even be damaged! ] ¡°What the f *ck?¡± ¡°This is a huge earn!¡± Grimm had only intended to create a defensive equipment. He did not expect that after the system¡¯s 100-fold enhancement, it would actually become a powerful offensive weapon. Destroying electronic equipment was a fatal blow to an ordinary spaceship. Which spaceship did not have electronic equipment? If all the electronic equipment were disabled, then the enemy would basically be waiting for death! Thinking of this, Grimm smiled. ¡°There is still one last piece of equipment!¡± Opening the technological construction interface, Grimm checked the last manufacturing principle. [ Spaceship energy shield: Basic energy 100 points, magic crystal ore x50, mechanical module X50, common alloy X50] ¡°Manufacture!¡± Similarly, the materials were complete and the energy was sufficient. Less than ten minutes after Grimm gave the order to manufacture, a huge energy shield instrument appeared below the spaceship. [ Acquired: Spaceship energy shield X 1! ] [ Spaceship energy shield X 1 has a 100-fold increase. Obtained spaceship shield generator x 1! ] [ Spaceship shield generator ] [ Description: after activated, a powerful shield is generated. Moreover, the energy shield will reflect part of the damage and cause a low amount of splash damage. ] Grimm nodded. The low amount of splash damage was actually not low. For a spaceship, the damage might not be enough. But if it was something like a ship-guarding drone, the splash damage would probably be enough to destroy it. Chapter 27 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation After constructing these defensive facilities, Grimm felt a little tired. He ordered the spaceship to automatically navigate and returned to the sleeping cabin to rest. In the next four hours, he needed to replenish his physical strength. When he woke up from sleep, he might encounter some new problems. Laying down comfortably, Grimm closed his eyes and was about to rest when suddenly, a warning notification appeared. [ Warning: A meteorite is approaching the hull. Probability of impact is 95% ! ] ¡°What the hell?¡± ¡°Am I allowed to sleep?¡± Grimm was speechless. He endured his drowsiness and climbed out of the sleeping cabin. He came to the control panel and took a look. He was instantly energized. ¡°What the f*ck?¡± Grimm saw that the meteorite that was about to approach his spaceship was very huge. Moreover, there seemed to be something else on the surface of the meteorite. Because the distance was too far, he could only infer the appearance of the meteorite through the radar¡¯s analysis and simulation map. Now he could not see the meteorite with his naked eyes at all. Of course, in fact the meteorite was not scary to him. Even if he did not have a weapon to blast the meteorite, he could still change his direction and circumnavigate to avoid the impact of the meteorite. However, the meteorite was a kind of danger and also a kind of resource. If he could destroy the meteorite and collect all the resources on the other side, he could still gain another wave of earnings. ¡°High-energy pulse heavy cannon, get ready to charge!¡± Following Grimm¡¯s order, the high-energy pulse heavy cannon was quickly charged. What Grimm needed next was to wait. Unable to sleep, Grimm began to eat. Although he was not very hungry, there was nothing else he could do at the moment. Picking up a serving of French fries, Grimm drank the nutrient purified water and ate the French fries at the same time. Soon, he saw the meteorite approaching his spaceship through the window. The meteorite looked different from the previous one. From afar, its entire body was black. Moreover, on the surface of the meteorite, there seemed to be something moving back and forth. ¡°A robot?¡± Grimm was puzzled when a notification appeared. [Warning: Cosmic worm found ahead! ] ¡°Cosmic worm?¡± Grimm was puzzled and hurriedly asked the control panel, ¡°Do you have detailed information?¡± [ Cosmic worm ] [ Description: has thick and heavy skin and hard teeth. It can survive in a vacuum environment. It can gnaw on all objects and move nimbly! ] ¡°This thing can eat anything¡­¡± He was still confused when he suddenly saw something flying over the meteorite. As it approached quickly, Grimm saw it clearly. It was a worm about the size of a human. It was entirely gray-black and had countless segments and legs on its body. The swarm of micro-defense spaceships quickly responded. Ten spaceships quickly gathered in front of Grimm¡¯s spaceships and formed a small defense array. At this moment, all the beehive micro-defense spaceships opened their energy shields. The cosmic worm suddenly landed on one of the beehive micro-defense spaceships. It actually directly passed through the energy shield. Moreover, in the next moment, Grimm saw it begin to gnaw on his spaceship. ¡°What the f*ck?¡± Grimm was speechless. This thing really ate everything. In less than a minute, a large piece of the bee colony miniature defensive spaceship was eaten by the worm. The entire spaceship almost lost all power. ¡°This can¡¯t do!¡± Grimm hurriedly gave an order. ¡°High-energy pulse heavy cannon, attack the meteorite!¡± He needed to clear out the other worms as soon as possible. Otherwise, if this continued, his bee colony miniature defensive spaceship would probably be eaten. The moment the order was given, the energy cannon shot out a beam of light. The meteorite in front of him exploded into a ball of fire in the next second and turned into countless fragments. However, many cosmic worms jumped out of the meteorite ahead of time and rushed toward Grimm¡¯s spaceship. ¡°F*ck!¡± ¡°This is troublesome!¡± Grimm was speechless. The size of the cosmic worms was too small. All the weapons installed on his spaceship were heavy weapons. There was no way to accurately aim at them. Moreover, what was worse was that at such a distance, even if Grimm did not care about the loss of energy and cannonballs, he still could not hit them. ¡°It seems that I can only use the mecha!¡± Those worms would soon approach. In order to prevent them from causing harm to the hull, Grimm had to move out as soon as possible. In less than a minute, Grimm put on a new spacesuit and snug into the interior of the mecha. After passing through the isolation room, Grimm left the spaceship. The mech had a propeller, so he did not use any safety ropes. As soon as he left the spaceship, he flew towards the cosmic worm that was gnawing on the bee colony micro-defense spaceship. Next, the heavy firepower Gatlin opened fire! The aiming system of the mech was very accurate. The bullets flew out in an instant and almost all hit the body of the cosmic worm. However, the cosmic worm did not seem to be afraid of these bullets at all. Its thick and heavy skin was dented by the impact of the bullets, however, it did not crack. What was even stranger was that the bullets that had pierced into the gaps of their skin could actually be squeezed out by it and stuffed into its mouth. ¡°Oh my God!¡± Grimm was speechless. The strength of this skin was simply indescribable. It seemed that the heavy firepower Gatlin was completely useless against them! Grimm put away the heavy firepower Gatlin and changed to a light saber. Grimm held the light saber on the arm of the mech and pushed it directly to the side of the cosmic worm. Next, Grimm hacked with force! In an instant, the cosmic worm was cut into two halves by the light saber. A pile of black sticky liquid burst out and scattered everywhere. Grimm could not care about these things now. He operated the mech and rushed towards the other cosmic worms. The propeller adjusted its direction. Grimm flew towards the approaching worms and cut them into two halves with one sword and one sword. In less than ten minutes, the worms that were flying over were all cleared away by Grimm. ¡°Solved!¡± Grimm smiled slightly and piloted the mech back to the interior of the spaceship. At the same time, he gave an order. ¡°Mechanical claw, capture the materials!¡± The mechanical claw instantly flew out and dragged the materials back one by one. [ Captured: Poisonous liquid x 1! ] [ Captured: Strong magnetic ore x 1! ] ¡­ The mechanical claw flew out and captured the fragments of the cosmic worms and meteorite. And these materials, while being captured, were all enhanced by the system by a hundredfold. Grimm looked at the hundreds of different materials being collected by piles and piles. He felt a burst of joy in his heart. ¡°I am probably the richest player in this game world!¡± Jumping out of the mech, Grimm took off his spacesuit. After dealing with this wave of enemies, he could finally have a good rest. Entering the sleeping cabin, Grimm closed his eyes comfortably. He fell asleep in a trance. After an unknown amount of time, when he opened his eyes and climbed out of the sleeping cabin, he actually saw a huge planet through the window. ¡°F * ck? This planet seems to have just exploded¡­¡± Chapter 28 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Grimm was not sure what was happening on that planet because it was too far. But at this time, the control panel issued an alert. [ Warning: We have encountered a dangerous planet. The planet¡¯s activity is abnormal and can explode at any time. Please move away from the planet immediately! ] ¡°What?¡± Grimm was still thinking about how to get close to this planet and collect the resources on it. But the control panel actually gave him such a warning. ¡°In that case, spaceship, speed up and go around the planet in front of you!¡± As Grimm gave the order, the spaceship¡¯s propeller turned on its maximum power. In his field of vision, the position of the planet gradually shifted and finally appeared at the back of the spaceship. At this time, Grimm suddenly saw that the planet in a violent explosion. He did not hear any sound, but he saw that there was a burst of flame. Moreover, when the flame exploded, he saw countless pieces of debris flying in all directions. Of course, there were also pieces of planet debris flying toward his spaceship. Boom! Before Grimm could react, he suddenly heard a loud noise coming from his spaceship. [ Warning: The side wing of the spaceship is damaged and needs urgent repair! ] ¡°Repair it immediately!¡± ¡°The beehive micro-defense spaceship block the flying debris at the back!¡± Grimm had enough materials, so repairing the hull was not a problem. But if he wanted to ensure that the spaceship would not be attacked by the debris from that planet, he had to let the beehive micro-defense spaceship hold the back. Sure enough, after deploying the beehive micro-defense spaceship, some of the debris was blocked, but from time to time, the main body of Grimm¡¯s spaceship would still be attacked by the debris. He quickly repaired the spacecraft while counting the broken beehive micro-defense spacecraft. In less than five minutes, there were only five of his beehive micro-defense spacecraft left. ¡°No, I have to build more beehive micro-defense spacecraft!¡± Grimm had just repaired the spacecraft and opened the technology construction interface. Then, he quickly took out the principles of the bee colony micro-defense spacecraft. [ Spaceship Guardian UAV: Basic energy 20 points, magic crystal ore x 1, mechanical module X 5, compact alloy X 5] ¡°Since I have all the resources I need now, I might as well just build more.¡± Grimm calculated that if he wanted to build 45 units, he would need 900 points of basic energy. After checking the energy storage, Grimm found that he did not have enough energy left. He had no choice but to wait until the energy was released tomorrow before continuing to build. As for now, Grimm decided to go to the communication channel to see how the other players were doing. [ I¡¯m still very short on food, what should I do? ] [ Plant vegetables, I just got some mutated seeds. ] [ What? You planted mutated seeds? That thing is very dangerous! ] [ What¡¯s so dangerous about that? ] [ I planted mutated seeds, but the plants that grew out of that thing actually released poisonous gas! ] Seeing this, Grimm was stunned. Released poisonous gas? This was indeed too dangerous! He was a little worried about the mutated seed he planted, so he hurried to the planting base to check. Approaching the planting pole, Grimm was instantly dumbfounded. How long had it been since he took care of it, and these mutated seed actually grew out such a strange thing! He saw that in his planting greenhouse, there were all kinds of strange things growing. Four of them seemed to have grown something like watermelons, but this thing was green and had stripes, but it was not round, but square. The other four plants looked like Venus flytrap. There were two large leaves that were open, and there were tiny thorns on the leaves. However, this thing was much bigger than Venus flytrap in the ordinary sense. The two leaves together could at least clip the big watermelon next to it. As Grimm was thinking about this, he saw a flytrap next to a square watermelon tilted over. The two leaves were ready to catch the square watermelon. ¡°What the f*ck?¡± Grimm was anxious! That was a watermelon. Although it was square, it was still food! He immediately opened the planting base and was ready to go in and pick the watermelon. However, just as he was about to approach, he was caught by several large leaves of the flytrap. ¡°Oh my God!¡± ¡°Did I plant a bunch of monsters?¡± Grimm was speechless. If he was to force his way in, he would most likely be caught by these Venus flytrap plants and turned into nutrients for their growth. Grimm immediately withdrew. Then, he quickly took out a laser sword and began to cut these large Venus flytrap plants. After a moment, he finally eliminated all the Venus flytrap plants. However, there were still two square watermelons. That were swallowed by the Venus flytrap plants. ¡°Damn it!¡± Grimm shook his head gloomily and began to collect the square watermelons in the planting base. [ Acquired: Mutated Watermelon X 1! ] [ Acquired: Mutated Watermelon X 1! ] ¡­ A moment later, Grimm obtained a total of 18 square watermelons. The yield of this planting base was really high. The seeds of four mutated watermelons produced a total of 20 square watermelons. Only two watermelons were eaten by the mutated Venus flytrap plants. Looking at the Venus flytrap that he had chopped into pieces on the ground, Grimm found that he could collect them, so he tried to pick them up. [ Acquired: Sticky mucus x 1! ] [ Acquired: Sticky mucus x 1! ] ¡­ He searched once and collected a total of 12 portions of sticky mucus in this planting region. However, what could this thing be used for? Grimm checked the description of the item. [ Sticky mucus ] [ Description: It can be used to create some monster capturing devices. Using the stickiness of the mucus, it can capture the target! ] ¡°Looks like it should be very useful!¡± Grimm nodded and checked the technological construction interface. However, he did not find the manufacturing principle of this kind of item. It seemed that it had not been unlocked yet. After a while, almost an hour had passed. Grimm was about to taste the mutated watermelon when he suddenly received a notification. [ Notification: today¡¯s energy has been supplied! ] Grimm took a look and sure enough, the spaceship¡¯s basic energy supply had increased by 1500 points. He smiled slightly and threw the mutated watermelon aside. He quickly opened the technological construction interface. Now that he had enough energy, he could build more beehive micro-defense spaceship! As he first built the spaceship guardian UAV, the system notification rang. [ Acquired: Spaceship guardian UAV x 1! ] [100-fold enhancement has taken effect! ] [ Spaceship guardian UAV X 1 has 100-fold enhancement, bee colony micro-defense spaceship! ] Following that, Grimm built another 44 spaceship guardian UAVs. Without exception, these UAVs were all enhanced into bee colony mini-defense spaceships. After an hour, Grimm had 50 bee colony mini-defense spaceships. ¡°Haha! Now the defense power is definitely impeccavle!¡± 50 bee colony mini-defense spaceships. No matter how many cosmic worms and exploding pieces of planets came, he wasn¡¯t afraid anymore! Chapter 29 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Around Grimm¡¯s spaceship, there were always 50 beehive micro-defense spaceships protecting and patrolling. After he was done with the manufacturing work, he suddenly remembered that he had not checked in today. He opened the 100-fold amplification system and a notification popped up. [ Ding! Check-in successful, received frozen cannonball X10! ] [ Frozen cannonball X10 received 100-fold amplification, received frost cannonball X100! ] ¡°Frost cannonball? Sounds good!¡± Grimm quickly checked the description. [ Frost cannonball ] [ Description: After it is fired, it will not cause any damage to the target, but it will release a freezing substance, freezing the target within a few seconds! ] ¡°Oh shit?¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t this just a crowd control skill?¡± Grimm smiled. The crowd control effect of this frost bomb was definitely not bad! After putting away these frost bombs, Grimm cut open a square watermelon and prepared to taste it. After cutting open the watermelon, Grimm found that the skin of the mutated watermelon was very thin, and there were no watermelon seeds inside. The taste was very sweet and very appetizing! In less than ten minutes, Grimm finished the watermelon clean and burped. Grimm opened the communication channel. He wasn¡¯t in a rush to do anything so it was time to see how the development of other players was going! With this thought in mind, he opened the communication channel. In the next moment, messages refreshed one after another. [ Who has strong magnetic ore? I want to make an electromagnetic field generator, but I don¡¯t have enough strong magnetic ore! ] [Oh shit? Do you have enough mechanical modules?] [I have a bunch of compact alloys in my hands, but I don¡¯t have any other materials!] [What should we do?] [Bosses, if anyone has materials, sell them to us!] Obviously, everyone was preparing for the high-energy particle flow. However, making an electromagnetic field generator for a spaceship required too many materials. Even if some players had some of the materials, they would not be able to gather the variety and quantity. In this case¡­ a business opportunity had come! During the previous resource acquisition process, Grimm had already collected a large number of strong magnetic ores. It was for no other reason but the 100-fold increase. If he had a piece of strong magnetic ore, after a 100-fold increase, it would be 100 pieces. Now, taking advantage of the fact that everyone needed strong magnetic ores and mechanical modules, Grimm planned to raise the price and make a fortune. He quickly sent a message in the communication channel. [ Those who need strong magnetic ore and mechanical module, come to the trading center! ] [ Big brother has these materials? ] [ Great, I¡¯m saved! ] Everyone cheered and opened the trading center one by one. At this time, Grimm had already posted a series of trading information. [ Mechanical module X 1 trading energy ore x 5! ] [ Strong magnetic ore x 1 trading energy ore x 5! ] ¡­ When everyone saw such a trading price, they were instantly dumbfounded. In the communication channel, everyone began to curse. [ What the f * ck? I thought I was saved, but this is too f * cking expensive! ] [ One material for five energy ores, boss, can you be a little more greedy! ] [ I feel that I can give up. How can one have so many energy ores here! ] Seeing everyone¡¯s reaction, Grimm shook his head helplessly. Of course, even if they ridiculed him, Grimm wouldn¡¯t give up a single cent of the price! He sent a message in the communication channel. ¡°The high-energy particle flow is coming. If you trade the materials now, you¡¯ll only lose some energy ores. If you don¡¯t trade, you might not even be able to stay alive. Do you think it¡¯s too much to raise the price of the life-saving items by five times?¡± [What the f*ck? He¡¯s actually admitting that he¡¯s taking advantage of a burning house!] [Although the price is ridiculously expensive, his words seem f * cking reasonable!] [The key is that I can¡¯t afford it!] [I¡¯m leaving, I¡¯m going to buy it first!] ¡­ Seeing that Grimm did not lower the price, everyone stopped arguing. The key thing was that arguing was useless. If they did not buy the materials at a high price now, they would not be able to create the spaceship¡¯s electromagnetic field generator. What they would have to face next would not be as simple as not having the materials. They were afraid that when the high-energy particles came, their lives would really be over! The players understood and naturally, Grimm¡¯s transaction was completed one by one. [ Transaction successful, obtained: Energy ore X 5! ] [ Transaction successful, obtained: Energy ore X 5! ] ¡­ Grimm looked at the energy ores in his hand increasing by portions of five. He laughed happily and began to eat French fries in a great mood. Although he did not need these energy ores, he had earned so many energy ores by raising the price. If he needed any materials, he could trade with the energy ores and he would not suffer any losses! Now, the ones who suffered were those players who did not develop well. After being exploited by Grimm, they might survive the high-energy particle flow but it would be difficult for them to deal with the ensuing difficulties. However, this was an environment comparable to the apocalypse. Grimm had no time to care about the life and death of those players. First of all, he had to ensure that he could survive. Although he was still in an advantageous position, who knew what kind of trouble he would encounter in the future? Who knew, perhaps in the next moment, he would encounter a wave of space pirates. As he was thinking about this, he suddenly saw a warning notification. [ Warning, unknown spaceship nearby is approaching. Number of spaceships, 3! ] ¡°What the f * ck?¡± ¡°It can¡¯t be that the pirates really came!¡± ¡°I really jinxed it!¡± Grimm shook his head and quickly got ready for battle. ¡°High-energy pulse heavy cannon, charge now!¡± ¡°Six-barrel rotating speed cannon turrets, load frost explosive bombs!¡± Grimm pondered. If they were enemies, then he could try out the frost bomb he had just obtained and see how effective it was. Just as he was pondering, the enemy actually fired straight up. ¡°What the f * ck?¡± Grimm saw that the three spaceships shoot out three white light pillars almost at the same time. Obviously, that was the attack of the pulse cannon. In an instant, Grimm saw that his spaceship suddenly burst with a light blue energy shield. [ Spaceship¡¯s shield generator shield activated! ] In an instant, the three energy beams shot at the blue shield that the spaceship¡¯s shield generator had created. The spot where the shield was hit clearly showed a huge fluctuation, but it was not penetrated. In the next moment, Grimm saw that the fluctuation bounced back and suddenly released a circle of high-energy particles. These high-energy particles were the damage from the rebound. Of course, because the opponent was too far away, these high-energy particles did not hurt the opponent at all. But even so, the players on the three spaceships were shocked beyond words. Three energy pulse weapons were fired at the same time, but Grimm¡¯s spaceship was actually fine. The shield was really powerful. Three pulse cannons were fired at the same time, but none of them could penetrate it. This was simply too powerful. ¡°Boss, our pulse cannons are ineffective against him!¡± ¡°Let¡¯s do it again. I don¡¯t believe this shield can continue to hold on!¡± ¡°Damn it, we have to use our energy sparingly!¡± Chapter 30 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation In the next moment, the three spaceships launched a second round of attacks. In an instant, Grimm saw three more pulse beams, but the same thing happened. The three beams shot at the energy shield, but still didn¡¯t damage Grimm¡¯s spaceship in the slightest. It seemed that the 50 beehive spaceships weren¡¯t even needed. Grimm scratched his head. ¡°They actually still want to try. They¡¯re really stubborn!¡± On the other side, the three space pirates started to argue. ¡°Boss, we can¡¯t do this anymore!¡± ¡°We don¡¯t have enough energy!¡± ¡°Alright, change to cannonballs and continue to attack. We must break that shield!¡± ¡°Yes!¡± The two pirates said in unison. Next, Grimm discovered that the spaceship on the other side was approaching. Then, one by one, small bright spots flew over. ¡°Changed to artillery fire?¡± Grimm smiled. At most, the other party had some ordinary artillery shells. Was it not a joke to deal with him? Sure enough, as those artillery shells hit the shield one by one, Grimm¡¯s shield kept on vibrating slightly. Those artillery shells simply could not get close. They hit the shield and were instantly sent flying. The pirates were dumbfounded. ¡°Boss, this guy¡¯s shield is too thick!¡± ¡°We can¡¯t continue like this!¡± ¡°This f*cking guy, is he a turtle?¡± A turtle? Impossible! The reason why Grimm did not attack before was to see how his shield was. Now, the test was over. ¡°Fire!¡± Grimm gave the order to attack. In an instant, the high-energy pulse heavy cannon shot out a high-energy pulse. In the next moment, the three spaceships on the opposite side activated their shields at the same time. However, the shields could not withstand Grimm¡¯s high-energy pulse at all. In just an instant, one of the spaceships¡¯ shield broke through. Through the window of his spaceship, Grimm saw the opponent¡¯s spaceships. In an instant, there was an explosion of flames. One of the pirate spaceships suffered heavy damage. The pirates panicked! ¡°Boss, my ship has been hit!¡± ¡°I can fucking see!¡± ¡°What should we do? My pulse cannon has been destroyed!¡± ¡°Boss, let¡¯s retreat!¡± ¡°Retreat!¡± The pirate captain also realized that he had probably provoked a player that he shouldn¡¯t have provoked, and immediately gave the order to escape. Grimm originally thought that he could easily catch up to them, but after giving the order to pursue, he discovered that these three pirate ships actually had very powerful thrusters. ¡°What the f*ck?¡± ¡°They ran quite fast!¡± Grimm laughed. Wouldn¡¯t this be a chance to test the effects of the frost bomb! ! ¡°Turret, lock onto the target and use the frost bomb to attack!¡± The moment the order was given, the six-barreled revolving rapid-fire turret began to fire. Bang Bang Bang.. As the frost bombs were fired from the turret, Grimm saw small white dots flying straight towards the opposite spaceship. In less than two seconds, the opponent was hit! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Almost all of the pirates¡¯ spaceships were hit by the frost bombs. But after being hit, their spaceships actually did not issue a damage warning. ¡°Boss, the opponent¡¯s cannonball doesn¡¯t seem to be powerful enough!¡± ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± ¡°No¡­ Not good, my spaceships have stalled!¡± ¡°What?¡± In an instant, the other two pirates also realized that their ship¡¯s thrusters had suddenly stalled. Not only that, all the places hit by the frost bomb quickly cooled down and froze. Many of the ship¡¯s equipment had been completely paralyzed. ¡°What the hell?¡± ¡°What do we do now?¡± ¡°Our ship can¡¯t continue to accelerate!¡± ¡°Hurry up and counterattack! He¡¯s coming!¡± ¡°Boss, my weapons are all frozen!¡± ¡°F * ck!¡± While the three of them were arguing, Grimm¡¯s spaceship gradually approached. He smiled and gave the order to change to anti-explosive shells. As the six-barreled turrets fired one shell after another, the pirate¡¯s spaceship on the opposite side was blasted into flames. Among them, two ships were completely destroyed. The player in the other ship took advantage of the fact that his ship had not completely exploded to escape in his spacesuit. Grimm sneered and once again ordered the turrets to fire frost bombs. In an instant, a cannonball hit the pirate. The pirate was sent flying by the cannonball. But in the next moment, that guy¡¯s body was covered in white ice crystals. He was frozen to death before he was killed by the cannonball. ¡°Settle the battle!¡± Grimm smiled slightly and piloted the spaceship to approach the three pirate spaceships. He first ordered the mechanical claw to capture the floating materials around. Then, he wore the disintegrator exoskeleton and left the main body of the spaceship. He began to disassemble and collect the materials in the hands of the three pirates. However, just as he left the spaceship, he received a warning notification. [ Warning: Dangerous high-energy particle flow detected. Please return to the interior of the spaceship immediately! ] ¡°What the f * ck?¡± Upon hearing this message, Grimm hurriedly returned to the spaceship. At the same time, he gave an order. ¡°Quick! Activate the electromagnetic field to protect the spaceship!¡± [ Reminder: the electromagnetic field protection is continuously activated. There is no need to activate it voluntarily. ] ¡°Oh, I forgot about this!¡± Grimm nodded and looked out of the window. In the next ten seconds or so, Grimm saw some flickering light spots around the spaceship. Those light spots were very fine and dense. They flew from a certain direction and then flashed and disappeared after encountering the electromagnetic field. Gradually, these fine light spots became more and more obvious. Grimm actually saw a high-brightness halo around his spaceship. And at this time, when he looked through the circle of light at the three crippled pirate spaceships, he found that those spaceships were currently emitting bursts of faulty electric sparks. ¡°It seems that this wave of high-energy particle flow¡¯s damage is more serious than I imagined!¡± Grimm opened the communication channel and looked at the situation of the other players. ¡°F * ck? The high-energy particle flow is here!¡± ¡°My spaceship is completely destroyed!¡± ¡°What should I do? What should I do? My electromagnetic field generator hasn¡¯t been built yet!¡± ¡°It¡¯s over, I¡¯m dead for sure!¡± ¡°F * ck me, I¡¯m f * cking fighting with the robots outside!¡± ¡°You¡¯re finished!¡± ¡°Have a safe journey¡­¡± Looking at the messages that were refreshed one after another in the communication channel, Grimm felt a little emotional. The disaster this time had come too suddenly. He was afraid that at least one-tenth of the world¡¯s players would die in this wave. However, there was no mercy in this kind of environment. In fact, even if Grimm wanted to help these guys, it would be useless. One wave had taken away hundreds of millions of people. How many could he save? ¡°Forget it. Good luck!¡± Grimm turned off the communication channel and looked at the circle of light formed by the light spots in front of him. He was silent for a long time. Half an hour later, the circle of light became much dimmer. The high-energy particle flow was about to end. However, too many people failed to seize the opportunity. Chapter 31 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation After more than ten minutes, the high-energy particle flow completely disappeared. Grimm left the spaceship and approached the previous three pirate spaceships. The first step, of course, was to dismantle and decompose the materials. He spent a full half an hour to open a gap in one of the spaceships. After climbing in and taking a look, Grimm was stunned. This guy was a pauper. Other than a small amount of food, he didn¡¯t find anything good. Shaking his head helplessly, Grimm began to dismantle the second pirate ship. After entering this ship, Grimm still only found some food. It seemed that all the good things owned by this pirate crew were in the last ship. Grimm gloomily approached the last ship, tore a hole in it and drilled in. In this spaceship, Grimm found a lot of basic materials. The amount of food was obviously more than the previous two spaceships¡¯ reserves. Moreover, when Grimm checked the materials, he actually saw a black electronic scanner. ¡°What is this thing?¡± This thing looked like a tablet computer. However, the screen always displayed a three-dimensional coordinate system. [ Wormhole detector ] [ Description: If there is a wormhole nearby, it will be detected by the detector and marked on the corresponding position of the coordinate system. ] ¡°There is actually such a thing!¡± Grimm was stunned. He really did not expect that he could actually obtain such a special item. The next moment, a notification appeared. [ Wormhole discovered. Wormhole will disappear in 4 hours, 28 minutes, and 16 seconds! ] Grimm saw a small red dot on the three-dimensional coordinates. Next to the small red dot was a countdown of 4 hours, 28 minutes, and 16 seconds. ¡°Wormhole? I can go there and take a look!¡± Grimm thought as he put away the wormhole detector. Judging from the distance of the three-dimensional coordinates, Grimm only needed a dozen minutes to arrive. Therefore, he could take the opportunity to disassemble the remains of these few spaceships. As long as he finished disassembling them in four hours, he could fly his spaceship to the wormhole and see what he would find on the other side of the wormhole. After nearly four hours, Grimm finally collected all the materials that could be recycled from the three spaceships. Returning to his spaceship, Grimm snuck out of the exoskeleton and took off his spacesuit before taking out the wormhole detector. At this time, the little red dot on the three-dimensional coordinates was still there. However, the countdown time had changed from 4 hours, 28 minutes, and 16 seconds to 45 minutes and 39 seconds. ¡°There¡¯s still plenty of time!¡± Grimm smiled slightly and gave the order. ¡°Advance to the target coordinates!¡± The coordinates on the wormhole detector automatically synchronized to the control panel of the spaceship. The spaceship activated its thrusters and advanced at high speed towards the location of the wormhole. After more than ten minutes, the spaceship arrived near the wormhole. However, Grimm could not see anything through the window. It was dark in front of him, no different from any other direction in the universe. But in the next moment, he suddenly felt dizzy. Everything around him became blurry. Some places looked longer and some places looked shorter. In short, everything seemed to be completely distorted. However, Grimm, who was in the spaceship, did not feel any discomfort. This process lasted for an unknown amount of time. The surrounding scene returned to normal in less than a second and his spaceship actually appeared near a blue planet. ¡°Where is this?¡± ¡°Earth?¡± Obviously, this was not earth, because the data displayed on the control panel on this planet was clearly different. It was smaller and seemed more monotonous. [ The planet in front has an atmosphere. Do you want to approach it? ] ¡°Approach!¡± [ After the spaceship approaches, it will continue to slow down to prevent the spaceship from rubbing too much against the atmosphere! ] As the control panel sent out such a message, the entire spaceship began to approach the front, and its speed was getting slower and slower. It was supposed to only take an hour to travel, but the spaceship actually flew for a full five hours. Grimm was hungry from waiting. He shook his head helplessly. While eating, he looked at the scene outside the window. Finally, the spaceship entered the atmosphere. Grimm saw that outside his window, there were bursts of flames from time to time. It seemed that it was caused by intense friction with the atmosphere. ¡°Maybe, I can breathe directly in the atmosphere of this planet!¡± Grimm nodded and continued to eat his food. He didn¡¯t get close to the window until he reached a lower altitude to see the situation on the surface of the planet. ¡°What the f*ck? It¡¯s all fking water?¡± There was nothing on the entire planet except for the endless ocean. At this moment, the control panel sent out a notification. [ Landing site has not been found. Preparing to land on the surface of the sea. ] The speed of the spaceship was getting slower and slower, but even so, Grimm still felt his whole body shaking the moment the spaceship fell into the sea. Splash! A wave of water splashed around the spaceship. In the next moment, Grimm looked out of the window and saw the dark seawater. There was nothing in the seawater. Not even the most basic microorganisms did not exist much less prawns and fish. ¡°This is really¡­¡± Grimm shook his head helplessly. He originally thought that he could eat something like grilled fish here. It seemed that this idea could be shelved. The spaceship plunged into the seawater. After a moment, it floated up again. Grimm was very satisfied. He asked the control panel, ¡°Is the air outside breathable?¡± [ Analyzing atmospheric composition¡­ ] [ Analysis completed. Atmospheric composition can be breathed directly, but breathing for a long period of time may result in a slight lack of oxygen. ] Grimm nodded. It seemed that although there was oxygen here, the oxygen content was much lower than on Earth. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. Anyway, I¡¯m just going out to take a look first.¡± He opened the cabin door at the top of the spaceship and climbed up directly. Standing on the top of the spaceship, he looked around but after a careful look, he found that there was really no land here. ¡°Without land, where would the resources come from?¡± Grimm scratched his head gloomily. Suddenly, he looked at the endless sea water and laughed. ¡°Water!¡± ¡°Fresh water!¡± ¡°There¡¯s so much water here. Why not sell this fresh water at a low price?¡± Grimm quickly returned to the interior of the spaceship and asked the control panel, ¡°Analyze the water here. Can it be drunk directly?¡± [ Analyzing the water composition¡­ ] [ Analysis completed. The water composition can be drunk directly, but drinking it for a long time may cause a lack of minerals. ] ¡°What the f*ck? Is this pure water?¡± [ The water source is almost pure water, with only a tiny amount of non-organic impurities. ] ¡°This is a gold mine! ?¡± Grimm smiled and quickly gave the order. ¡°Can the mechanical claw can collect fresh water?¡± [ The mechanical claw can capture fresh water and has a water storage device! ] ¡°Beautiful!¡± ¡°Start collecting fresh water now!¡± Chapter 32 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Free Fresh Water Following Grimm¡¯s order, the mechanical claw began to collect fresh water portion by portion. [ Captured: fresh water x 1! ] [ Fresh water x 1 obtained a 100-fold increase, fresh water x 100! ] ¡­ Watching the fresh water being captured by the mechanical claw portion by portion, Grimm quickly hung up the fresh water to the exchange center. Now, from the price of the trading center, one portion of fresh water that could be drunk could be sold for four to five portions of basic materials. If he sold three portions, there would definitely be a large number of players fighting to buy it. Thinking of this, Grimm put up the contents of the trade. [ Fresh water x 1 trades common alloy x 3! ] ¡­ Grimm made a hundred copies of the same trade in one go. He even deliberately opened the communication channel and shouted to all the players. [ Those who need fresh water go to the trading center. Fresh water that can be drunk directly can be bought with only 3 pieces of ordinary alloy! ] Seeing this message, the communication channel exploded. [ F * ck? Conscience! ] [ This fresh water is so cheap! ] [ No way, fresh water is so scarce now. How can it be so cheap? ] Some people began to doubt. [ Don¡¯t be deceived. That¡¯s definitely not some drinkable fresh water. The fresh water that can be drunk now requires at least four sets of basic materials. Those who need fresh water come to me. I have the lowest price here. Four sets of materials can buy absolutely drinkable fresh water! ] [ That sounds very reasonable. But if fresh water bought with three sets of raw materials of can be drunk, why would I buy a more expensive ones? ] ¡°That¡¯s right!¡± ¡°I¡¯ll buy one set and taste it first!¡± Grimm smiled. Of course his fresh water was drinkable. It was just that the source was more abundant. In the next moment, he received a trade notification. [ Trade successful, obtained: Ordinary alloy X 3!¡±] At the same time, someone sent a message in the communication channel. [ I just bought one set, it¡¯s really drinkable. There¡¯s no difference in the taste of drinking other fresh water! ] [ F * ck? Then I must buy more! ] [ I don¡¯t have any more ice cubes here. I have to buy fresh water from outside! ] [ Boss, how many more do you have? I want to buy them all! ] Seeing this message, Grimm smiled and replied. [ Don¡¯t worry, there¡¯s plenty of fresh water. As long as you want to buy, you can have as much as you want! ] [ F * ck? Boss is awesome! ] [ This is f * cking weird. Where did you get so much fresh water? ] [ Hahaha, someone¡¯s business has been stolen! ] [ F * ck me¡­] Grimm laughed. He could collect 100 portions of fresh water in one go. Even if he sold one portion of fresh water for an ordinary alloy, he could still make a big profit! In the next moment, the other guy actually lowered the price. [ I also f * cking lowered the price. Three portions of materials! ] Seeing this situation, Grimm suddenly laughed. He did not expect this guy to really lower the price. He estimated that there was a large amount of ice near the player, so he could lower the price. But no matter what, it could not be lower than his own cost. Grimm quickly posted a message in the trading center. [ Only two sets of basic materials are needed for freshwater, those who want come! ] At the same time, Grimm modified all the transactions that were put up in the trading center. [ What the F * ck? This boss is awesome! ] [ This is f * cking¡­ too cheap! ] [ I want to buy! I want to buy! ] Although the price had dropped this time, Grimm¡¯s trading speed had obviously increased by several times. Even those players who did not lack water began to purchase a large number of fresh water from Grimm¡¯s side as reserves. [ Transaction successful, obtained ordinary alloy x 2! ] [ Transaction successful, obtained ordinary alloy x 2! ] ¡­ In front of Grimm¡¯s eyes, the transaction notifications were all linked together. One by one, they popped up. It was so fast that he could not see clearly. In less than a minute, he had obtained more than a hundred pieces of ordinary alloy. Grimm was certainly not tired of it. He ordered the mechanical claw to capture fresh water again and again, and then continued to sell it at such a low price. An hour later, the communication channel was still discussing the matter of Grimm selling fresh water. [ Did you see it? Big boss has already sold thousands of portions of fresh water, why isn¡¯t it sold out yet? ] [ Is there a F * cking cheat? ] [ There¡¯s too much fresh water. Big boss didn¡¯t go to a planet with fresh water everywhere, right? ] Grimm occasionally glanced at it and saw this message. He smiled slightly and replied. [ How did you know? ] [ What the f * ck? Is that what happened? ] [ Big Brother, how did you find a planet with fresh water? ] [ Big Brother, can you tell us? ] Grimm smiled. He was purely lucky. Who knew that he would actually find a large water ball after entering a wormhole. But even if he had some special method, it was impossible to tell these players. In this apocalyptic environment, resources were everything. All information about resources was top secret. As long as he knew these top secrets, he would be invincible. Therefore, Grimm replied with a message. [ You have the nerve to ask this kind of thing¡­] [ That¡¯s right, that¡¯s right. How could big brother reveal such important information to us? ] [ Big boss, I want to suck up to you! ] [ Can big boss bring me along? ] Grimm shook his head and directly closed the communication channel. Making money was the end of it. As for chatting, he was not interested, and it was even more impossible for him to bring other players along. He was a person who owned the system, so how could he easily form an alliance with other players? He did not look at the transaction reminder. In any case, he simply could not see through it all. After sitting down, Grimm took out another bag of French fries and began to eat them. He ate while looking at the scenery outside the window. However, the scenery outside was still as monotonous as before. There was nothing but the endless sea. When he raised his head, he could not even see a cloud. ¡°What a monotonous world!¡± Grimm sighed inwardly. But at this moment, he suddenly received a notification. [ Warning: unknown danger is approaching! ] Grimm hurriedly looked at the radar. On the scanning map, there was a small red light dot flashing and approaching. However, the speed of picking up things was not considered fast. Moreover, it was actually from the bottom of the sea. ¡°What is this situation?¡± ¡°Monsters?¡± Grimm shook his head. It was almost impossible to have monsters here. Or to put it another way, if there were no living organisms such as bacteria and fungi, it would be impossible to breed other creatures. It would be even more difficult for monsters to reproduce. ¡°What exactly is it?¡± Grimm quickly got up, put away the French fries, and gave an order to the spaceship. ¡°Can we dive?¡± ¡°We can dive, but we will lose a part of our speed!¡± Grimm nodded. ¡°Dive, get closer, but don¡¯t get too close!¡± [ Warning: no underwater weapons at our disposal! ] Grimm suddenly realized that his energy weapons had a difficult time penetrating the seawater. Although the cannonballs fired from the turrets could attack the opponent below the surface of the sea, the water would inevitably reduce their speed and causing them to lose their power. ¡°Forget it, let¡¯s just take off!¡± [ Preparing to take off! ] With the roar of the engines, the spaceship gradually rose from the surface of the water. Chapter 33 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Grimm¡¯s spaceship gradually rose. He looked at the radar. The unknown target was still floating toward the surface of the sea. However, its speed was still very slow. It seemed that it was not prepared to attack. ¡°What is this situation?¡± Grimm had a puzzled look on his face. Although he had not discovered this thing¡¯s intention to attack for the time being, he still gave the order to prepare to attack. ¡°High-energy pulse heavy cannon, prepare to attack!¡± The next moment, the high-energy pulse heavy cannon began to charge. However, as the target gradually floated up, Grimm discovered that the opponent had yet to launch an attack. Moreover, a message was transmitted from his control panel. [ Received the opponent¡¯s communication message. ] [ Our civilization has already gone extinct. At the last moment of extinction, we prepared countless warehouses to store our genetic information. We hope that one day, our civilization can be discovered by visitors and fuse these genetic information into your bodies. This can also be considered as a continuation of our civilization. ] ¡°This¡­¡± Grimm did not expect to encounter such a thing. The flying saucer-like thing below was actually a gene bank. ¡°Well, it seems that there should be no danger.¡± Grimm ordered the spaceship to descend. Gradually, the spaceship landed on the top of the flying saucer-shaped object floating on the sea surface. After entering the mech, Grimm left the cabin and prepared to go to the gene bank to see if he could find what he needed. Coming to the top of the saucer, Grimm saw a round cabin door. Grimm touched the cabin door and it automatically opened. ¡°Looks like it¡¯s just a casual entry!¡± Grimm nodded and directly entered the interior of the saucer through the round cabin door. After passing through an almost vertical passage, Grimm arrived at a hall. There were four gates on each side of the hall. Grimm casually walked in front of one of the gates, and the gates automatically opened. He smiled slightly and piloted his mecha into the hall. Then, he saw rows and rows of shelving racks. ¡°Specimens?¡± He saw that on all the shelves, there were all kinds of creatures. However, this room was obviously where some small biological specimens were placed. He saw some things that were similar to the creatures on earth, such as flies and mosquitoes. However, these things looked somewhat different from the creatures he had seen on earth before. As for the others, Grimm had never seen them before. They were probably some species that were once unique to this planet. Grimm was not interested in these specimens, so he directly walked to the end. In front of a computer, he saw an exquisite box. Opening the box, a notification appeared. [ Acquired: species genetic information data card x 1! ] ¡°This thing¡­ What¡¯s its use?¡± Grimm hurriedly checked the description. [ Species genetic information data card ] [ Description: Through this data card, you can read a huge amount of genetic information of a species. You can identify and compare it when you encounter an unknown creature. In the future, when you make a gene reagent, these genetic information can play a crucial role. ] Grimm smiled. This thing seemed to be much more useful than he had imagined. If he could manufacture gene reagents in the future, it would indeed be very good to have these data as a reference and comparison! Moreover, this genetic information was also equivalent to an intelligence database. Grimm nodded and left this room. He walked into another sluice gate. Inside this sluice gate, the same arrangement was still in place. However, what was stored here were not specimens of small creatures, but specimens of some marine creatures. These marine creatures, it seemed that some of them were very similar to the creatures on Earth, and some of them were very different from the creatures on Earth. Grimm was still not interested in looking at them carefully. He went directly to the last computer and opened an exquisite small box. [ Acquired: species genetic information data card x 1! ] Needless to say, the function of this data card was certainly the same. The only difference was that it stored the genetic information of other creatures. Next, Grimm went to the other two rooms and found a flying bird, a land creature¡¯s genetic information data card. But the problem came. Could it be that there were only animals and no plants here? Grimm was puzzled about this matter. Walking out of the gate, he saw a hatch automatically open under his feet. ¡°So there¡¯s a second floor here!¡± Having confirmed that there was no danger here, Grimm entered the lower level. Here, he saw an even larger space. In this space, there were all kinds of plant specimens stored everywhere, and at the end of this space, there was also a data card. Grimm took the data card, and a string of information suddenly appeared on the computer. [ Next, you will enter the human specimens and the human gene pool belonging to our civilization. ] At the same time as the notification appeared, a gate suddenly appeared on the metal wall behind the computer. Inside the gate, there was still a display rack, but the things displayed inside looked a little creepy. Grimm felt that when the gate opened, he had a gloomy feeling because at a glance, there were human specimens everywhere. These human specimens did not look like normal humans, but the difference was not big. These humans clearly had a head that was larger than humans, and their overall height was slightly higher than humans on Earth. Their arms and legs were relatively thin, and their physiques of men and women were quite similar. Of course, Grimm was not in the mood to appreciate these specimens. After all, no matter how exquisite these things were made, they were really too terrifying. He piloted the mecha and quickly walked to the back, taking the last data card. Then, Grimm moved out from the side of these terrifying specimens. Originally, he wanted to see if there were any other things in here that could be explored, but after careful inspection, he found nothing. Grimm frowned and muttered to himself. ¡°Although the gains are not great, these data cards are still very useful. Moreover, it didn¡¯t take much effort!¡± Returning to his spaceship, Grimm immediately inserted the data cards into the spaceship¡¯s control panel. In the next moment, one by one, read information appeared. [ Genetic data reading, archived! ] [ Genetic data reading, archived! ] ¡­ After a short while, Grimm read all the information on the data card. Next, he received a new notification. [ Gene library is complete. The basic conditions for making gene potions are already available. Only some equipment and materials are required to make gene potions! ] ¡°Huh?¡± ¡°This is good!¡± Grimm smiled. He quickly checked the technological construction interface. However, a few minutes later, Grimm shook his head. He did not unlock the equipment to produce the gene reagent. ¡°Oh right, it has been almost 24 hours again!¡± Chapter 34 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation [ Ding! Check-in successful. Obtained reagent maker x 1! ] [ Reagent maker X 1 obtained 100 times amplification. Obtained gene reagent making platform x 1! ] ¡°What the f * ck? I get whatever I want?¡± A huge biochemical experiment device appeared in front of Grimm. He took a closer look at the description. [ Gene reagent preparation platform ] [ Description: you can make gene reagents, but you need gene reagent preparation data cards and gene reagent materials! ] ¡°What the f * ck? Why do I still need materials and data cards?¡± Grimm was speechless. It seemed that the gene reagent preparation platform he had on hand was completely useless! He shook his head helplessly. He did not even know what materials he needed now. In short, the materials he had on hand were probably not enough. For a time, he could not think of any other way. Therefore, he wanted to sell some more fresh water first and then to leave this planet. According to his deduction, this planet probably had nothing but fresh water. As the transactions were completed, the number of players buying fresh water decreased. A few hours later, the entire market seemed to be saturated. Grimm realized that the number of players buying fresh water had decreased by a lot, so he piloted the spaceship and headed out of the planet. It took him a long time to enter the planet, but it took him less than 20 minutes to leave. When he looked at his surroundings again, it was already dark. The blue planet was behind the spaceship getting further and further away.. There was no material to collect nearby, so Grimm picked up the wormhole detector to see if he could find other wormholes. He took a closer look and did not expect there to be a wormhole nearby. [ Wormhole discovered. Wormhole will disappear in 18 minutes and 24 seconds! ] Grimm looked at the little red dot marked on the three-dimensional coordinate system and smiled. The location of the wormhole was not far from him. It could even be said that it was relatively close. According to the current speed, it would only take five to six minutes to reach the location of the wormhole after adjusting the direction. After giving the order to the spaceship, the spaceship quickly moved toward the target direction. Five minutes later, Grimm once again experienced the distorted feeling of passing through the wormhole. However, this time, the distorted feeling lasted even longer. ¡°Could it be because the place I¡¯m going this time is even further away?¡± Grimm pondered in his mind. He felt that it had been a long time before everything returned to normal. At this time, looking out of the window, Grimm found that the surrounding environment seemed to be no different from before. It seemed that he had just entered another empty universe. Just as he was thinking about this, suddenly, the spaceship issued a warning. [ Warning: unknown ruins have been discovered ahead! ] ¡°Ruins?¡± Grimm suddenly smiled. Ruins were places that could only be encountered but not sought after. Although there were some dangers, some important materials could usually be found in the ruins. If he could find the materials and data cards needed to make gene potions through this exploration, it would be a great earn. With such expectations, Grimm ordered the spaceship to approach the ruins and get ready for battle. The high-energy pulse heavy cannon had been charged. If he encountered danger, he could fire it at the first moment. Although the spaceship warned him that an unknown ruin was discovered, Grimm did not see anything through the window. ¡°Where is the ruin?¡± Grimm looked at the radar and found a little red dot in the radar. This little red dot was not far from him, so he should be able to see it. Unless¡­ Suddenly! The spaceship seemed to have broken through some barrier. In an instant, the scene in front of Grimm¡¯s eyes was different from before. There was a huge space base ahead, floating in front of him. The base was entirely black and shaped like a tier-3 Rubik¡¯s Cube. It seemed to be composed of 27 cubes. ¡°What is this place?¡± Grimm approached in confusion. Suddenly, his spaceship received a warning from the other side. [ Warning: identity verification needed if spaceship wants to proceed! ] ¡°Identity verification?¡± Grimm was depressed. What did he have to use for identity verification? ¡°Open fire, blast it!¡± Grimm gave the order to open fire. In an instant, the high-energy pulse heavy cannon emitted an energy beam. However, just as the energy beam was shooting toward the base, a blue energy shield suddenly appeared around the base. The defensive power of this energy shield was too strong. Grimm¡¯s energy cannon shot out, but surprisingly, it did not cause the slightest ripple on the energy shield. ¡°What the f * ck? This defensive power!¡± ¡°Did I come to a dungeon for the higher levels?¡± ¡°I can¡¯t break through it at all!¡± Grimm was even more confused in the next moment. The defense of this base was strong, but there was no attacking system. Normally, after being attacked by Grimm, the base should have immediately counterattacked, but the result was that the base was still the same as before, without any movement. It was as if it did not realize that it had been attacked at all. ¡°What is this situation?¡± Grimm ordered the spaceship to continue approaching. [ The energy shield in front cannot be broken through! ] ¡°What the f * ck?¡± ¡°This f * ck¡­¡± Grimm was speechless. But just when he was depressed, a small spaceship flew out of the Rubik¡¯s cube-shaped base. However, it seemed that the other party did not intend to attack him. When the spaceship approached, the other party sent a message. [ Please leave the spaceship visitor! ] ¡°Visitor?¡± Grimm was confused. Was this a museum built by a civilization in the universe? The kind that was free of ticket? When Grimm was confused, the spaceship stopped at a relatively safe distance. It did not get close or far away. ¡°Whatever, let¡¯s go and take a look.¡± He put on the spacesuit, got into the mech, and then left the spaceship. Relying on the propeller of the mech, Grimm soon arrived near the spaceship. The top of the spaceship opened a hatch, and Grimm flew in without any hindrance. When he landed, he was completely stunned. He thought the spaceship had no pilot, but when he entered the spaceship¡¯s cabin, he saw a humanoid robot standing in front of him. ¡°This¡­¡± ¡°Hello, visitor. I am No. 003, the service robot here. Please get ready. I am about to take you into the Planet Seta Museum.¡± ¡°What the F * ck? It¡¯s really a f * cking museum?¡± Grimm was speechless. There was really everything in this universe. There was actually such a museum that could be freely visited. But what was the point of him entering the museum? Did he just wanted to see the things displayed inside? To rob something inside? Grimm felt that with his own strength, it was not realistic to rob. However, the words of Robot 003 behind him made Grimm interested. ¡°Visitor, after your visit, we will give you a unique souvenir!¡± ¡°A souvenir? What will it be?¡± Chapter 35 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation This small ship soon entered the lowest and center most black cube of the Tetris cube shaped base. After entering, the ship stopped. Grimm saw there was a clean and tidy foyer with the same type of humanoid robots everywhere. Robot 003 said to Grimm ¡°Now, please walk to the show room!¡± Grimm left the ship but he didn¡¯t come out of his mecha. The robots didn¡¯t seem to care. 003 led the away ahead. ¡°This way please!¡± The robot walked at the front while Grimm followed behind. Those robots guarding the door didn¡¯t come over. they didn¡¯t seem to worry about Grimm doing anything that would cross the line. Of course, even if Grimm wanted to do something, it wouldn¡¯t be now. They passed through the corridor and came to a show room. ¡°This is the original showroom of our Seta civilisation!¡± Grimm saw display models of the actual thing. The models displayed a set scene that looked extremely real. One of these scenes aroused Grimm¡¯s attention. A flying saucer landed on a plateau and built a construction there. Transporter ships moved the organisms here into the base. From the base, there were people wearing protective clothes and took human like apes and left the base. 003 saw that Grimm was interested in this scene so it explained ¡°This is an advanced civilisation descending on planet Seta and creating out ancestors.¡± ¡°Creating¡­¡± Grimm looked at this robot with confusion. 003 continued explaining. ¡°Yes, creating. Seta race was created by a more advanced civilisation.¡± ¡°Okay¡­ where is the Seta race now?¡± ¡°The Seta race was struck with a catastrophic attack. Their original planet is damaged. The survivors left the planet and sough refuge elsewhere in the universe. This museum was left by the Seta race before they left.¡± Grimm nodded. This place was indeed a ruin. Grimm wasn¡¯t very interested in this history. He just took a few curious glances. What he was really interested in was what souvenir he would get afterwards! Therefore, he almost paid no attention to the robot. He had gone through more than half of the 27 showrooms soon. When he thought they were going to continue, 003 suddenly stopped. ¡°You¡¯ve been through all the public showrooms. To continue, you need to pay some resources.¡± ¡°Where is my souvenir?¡± ¡°You can only get it after visiting the paid access showrooms.¡± Grimm dazed. He felt he was getting scammed. ¡°How much resources do I need to pay?¡± ¡°100 energy ores.¡± ¡°Just a 100, here you go!¡± Grimm was thinking. If he was suffering a loss, he would smash this museum! Of course, after he paid and entered the showrooms, he gave up on that thought. As soon as he entered the next showroom, he saw racks of all sorts of weapons. The first one he saw was the heavy firepower Gatlin. 003 explained ¡°This is a primal weapon created by the Seta race. However, it¡¯s firepower is very nice.¡± ¡°Primal weapon¡­¡± This heavy firepower Gatlin was his main weapon. Yet, it was just an unused primal weapon. Just how strong was the Seta race? Clearly, with their power, they could probably destroy his mech with just these few robots. Otherwise, they wouldn¡¯t let him in like that. Grimm then saw an even larger machine gun. 003 introduced ¡°What you see now is the storm dragon violent Gatlin. It¡¯s firing speed and calibre is bigger. It¡¯s not much smaller than cannons!¡± ¡°Oh my god¡­¡± Grimm was certain that just one bullet from this thing would blow his mecha up. Shaking his head, Grimm was even more certain he didn¡¯t want to cause trouble here. Grimm continued the other exhibits. He saw many powerful weapons. Compared to them, Grimm thought his equipment was too petty. An hour later, they finished the last exhibit. Grimm looked hopefully at the robot ¡°Can you give out the souvenir now?¡± The robot nodded and handed Grimm a metallic card. [ Acquired: Seta shop membership card x1 ] [ Description: Players who have the Seta shop membership card can buy everything in the shop at 20% discount. ] Grimm looked at the card and then at the robot. ¡°That¡¯s it?¡± The 20% discount was alright but the problem was¡­ where is the Seta shop? Wasn¡¯t the Seta civilisation destroyed? 003 explained ¡°The location of the Seta civilisation is destroyed but the seed of their civilisation has spread to all corners of the universe. As long as you have this card, you can buy weapons at a discount when you see the shop!¡± Grimm was speechless. ¡°Ok ok.!¡± Grimm couldn¡¯t beat these robots and shook his head ¡°Then tell me where the nearest Seta shop to here is?¡± 003 shook his head ¡°Seta shops are huge spaceships. Their locations are uncertain but if you want to buy things, you need an ample amount of energy ores. That¡¯s the only currency used by the shop.¡± Energy ore? He had plenty of that! Grimm ¡°Okay then, I want to leave here!¡± ¡°Go as you please!¡± 003 seemed to have made some order. Instantly, a small hidden door opened up on the wall of the last showroom. There was already a spaceship waiting there for them. Grimm and 003 entered the ship. Then, they flew towards Grimm¡¯s ship. Moments later, Grimm went back to his own ship while 003 went back to the museum on that ship. Chapter 36 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation After leaving the Seta Museum, Grimm ordered the spaceship to fly freely. He was tired after walking around for a few hours. He sat down to eat while checking the wormhole detector. He did not find any signs of a wormhole on the three-dimensional coordinates. If he travelled in a straight line, he would not encounter anything for several hours in the space in front of him. Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly saw some scattered materials floating in the distance of the spaceship. ¡°Space resources?¡± Grimm smiled. He hurriedly ordered the spaceship to slow down and let the mechanical claw prepare to capture the materials. As the spaceship gradually approached, he clearly saw two silver-white space treasure chests in front of him. ¡°Capture the space treasure chests first!¡± As Grimm gave the order, the mechanical claw changed the direction of its grab and suddenly grabbed a space treasure chest. [ You have captured a space treasure chest x 1! ] [ Acquired: Mechanical module X 1! ] [ Mechanical module X 1 has a 100-fold increase, mechanical module X 100! ] [ Acquired: energy ore x 2! ] [ Energy ore x 2 has a 100-fold increase, energy ore x 200! ] [ Acquired: Fiery ore x 1! ] [ Fiery ore x 1 has a 100-fold increase, fiery ore x 100! ] Grimm shook his head as he looked at the materials he had just obtained. He did not really care about anything else other than the energy ores that could be used as currency,. Grimm focused his gaze on the second space treasure chest and instantly saw a series of reward information. [ You have captured space treasure chest x 1! ] [ Obtained: Mechanical module x 2! ] [ Mechanical module x 2 has received a 100-fold enhancement, mechanical module X 200! ] [ Acquired: Energy ore x 1! ] [ Energy ore x 1 has received a 100-fold enhancement, energy ore x 100! ] [ Acquired: Super high-power radar manufacturing principle diagram x 1! ] [ Super high-power radar manufacturing principle diagram X 1 has received a 100-fold enhancement, wide-range scanning radar manufacturing principle diagram x 1! ] ¡°What the f * ck?¡± This time, Grimm smiled. The wide-range scanning radar sounded extraordinary. He hurriedly opened the technological construction interface and looked at the manufacturing principles of the wide-range scanning radar. [ Wide-range scanning radar: basic energy 300 points, compact alloy X 100, mechanical module X 50, chip module X 50! ] [ Description: it has a huge scanning radius, but the scanning speed is relatively slow. It can discover extremely long-distance targets! ] Grimm looked at the description and then looked at the materials required for the manufacturing principle. He smiled slightly. ¡°Then what are you waiting for? Build it now!¡± At the same time he chose to build it, waves of white light emitted from the interior of the spaceship. In a few minutes, the new radar was built. However, Grimm did not check immediately because after the production was completed, he would receive another 100 times amplification! ¡°Hehe!¡± [100-fold increase has taken effect! ] [ Wide-range scanning radar has a 100-fold increase, high-speed wide-range scanning radar has been obtained! ] In the next moment, Grimm immediately opened the description of the high-speed wide-range scanning radar. [ High-speed wide-range scanning radar ] [ Description: it has a higher scanning speed and a larger scanning radius. Moreover, it can lock onto more targets at the same time! ] In the next moment, Grimm looked at his radar scanning image. Sure enough, the scanning radius had expanded by hundreds of times. Moreover, the scanning speed was very fast. It could scan two times in about one second. Previously, he could not see the planet, but he could clearly see the marking points on the scanning image. ¡°Great!¡± Grimm smiled slightly. He intended to see if there were any Seta mall spacecraft in this area, but he found nothing. Moreover, the nearest planet was too far away. On this radar, Grimm estimated that the closest planet to him would take at least one or two days to reach. ¡°I¡¯d check if there¡¯s a wormhole!¡± Grimm took out the wormhole detector. He didn¡¯t expect that a new wormhole had really appeared near him. [ Wormhole discovered. Wormhole will disappear in 6 minutes and 11 seconds! ] ¡°So short?¡± Grimm quickly checked the distance. He found that he could almost reach the location of the wormhole before the wormhole disappeared. ¡°Spaceship, full speed ahead!¡± Grimm immediately gave the order. Next, the spaceship¡¯s propeller activated its maximum power and approached the coordinates of the wormhole at high speed. Five minutes later, Grimm felt a familiar distortion. However, he was already used to this feeling. After experiencing a period of distortion, he felt that the situation around him had returned to normal. When he looked at the radar, he saw a flashing red dot. [ Unknown spaceship discovered. Do you want to approach? ] ¡°Unknown spaceship?¡± ¡°Approach!¡± At least it was a spaceship. It could be the Seta shop. Even if that spaceship was only a player¡¯s spaceship, Grimm was not worried. With the powerful combat strength of his spaceship, it was more than enough to deal with a few players. Therefore, Grimm decided to get closer first! The distance between him and the other party was too far. Therefore, Grimm took the opportunity to collect more energy ores. If that spaceship was really the Seta mall, he could use a large amount of energy ores to buy weapons and equipment in the mall. Opening the trading center, Grimm quickly entered the trading contents. [ Common alloy x 8 trading for energy ore x 5! ] [ Glass x 8 trading energy ore x 5! ] ¡­ Grimm put all the basic materials up. His price was quite cost-effective. It was impossible for the players not to be tempted. Of course, he still had to go to the communication channel to inform everyone. Opening the communication channel, Grimm quickly sent a message. [ Paying a high price for energy ores, those with energy ore, come to the trading center to trade! ] When everyone saw this message, they immediately began to discuss. [ Energy ore? Why is big brother collecting so many energy ores? ] [ F * ck? Such a high recovery price, I want all of them! ] [ Big brother, have you found your conscience at this time? ] [ Hurry up and buy it! Hurry up and buy it! ] Everyone began to trade. Grimm¡¯s notifications popped up one by one. [ Successful trade, obtained energy ore x 5! ] [ Successful trade, obtained energy ore x 5! ] ¡­ In a short while, all the transactions that Grimm had put up were cleared out. He had no choice but to continue putting up the same transaction so that everyone could continue to buy. Of course, he was at a loss in this wave of transactions. However, it did not matter. As long as he found the Seta mall and used these energy ores as currency to purchase a large number of weapons and equipment, he could then sell them to these players at a high price. At that time, he would probably earn back more than ten times the amount of resources that he had lost. In this wave, he was actually competing for speed. If other players also found out about the Seta mall, it might not be easy for him to earn so much. However, even if other players found the Seta mall and didn¡¯t find the Seta Museum, they would be paying for prices much higher than him. After all, he had a 20% discount membership card. Chapter 37 - Seta Mall Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Grimm was crazily purchasing energy ores. The spaceship was getting closer and closer to the opposite spaceship. Suddenly, Grimm received a notification. [ Small spaceship found ahead! ] ¡°Huh?¡± Grimm looked at the radar map and saw a small moving light spot behind the previous spaceship. It was approaching him. ¡°What¡¯s going on? Is it here to verify identity?¡± Grimm was a little confused, but he still ordered his weapon to prepare for an attack. After all, it was better not to let down his guard when there was no absolute certainty. If that small spaceship came to attack him and he was not ready for battle, he might be caught unprepared. After the deployment was completed, Grimm looked at the transaction that he had hung in the trading center. All the transactions had been completed. The players in the communication channel were already urging for replenishment. ¡°Big brother? Is there any more transaction content?¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t see this just then. It¡¯s a huge loss for me!¡± ¡°Quickly restock! Quickly restock!¡± Grimm smiled slightly and copied over a hundred more transaction messages. At this time, the small spaceship had already approached. [ The other side has sent a communication message! ] [ The Seta shop welcomes you! ] ¡°What the f * ck?¡± ¡°Is it really a Seta shop?¡± Grimm smiled. This time, he was about to make a big profit. He quickly put up another large batch of transactions. At this time, the spaceship on the other side sent a new notification. [ Please leave the spaceship consumer. We will send you into the interior of Seta Mall. You can enjoy the free dining treatment after making 1000 energy ores of purchase. ] ¡°What the f * ck?¡± Grimm smiled. He checked the number of energy ores he had. It was about 5,000 or so. It was too easy to spend 1,000 energy ores. Grimm waited for a while. Seeing that all the energy ores had been traded, he put on his spacesuit, tightened his grip on the interior of the mech, and left his spaceship. Of course, when he approached the small spaceship, an entrance opened at the top of the small spaceship. Grimm went in and took a look. Sure enough, it was still a humanoid robot. ¡°Are there any humans in the Seta Mall?¡± The robot opposite him shook its head. ¡°The Seta Mall is a self-service mall. The Seta people will only come here regularly to restock. They will not live in the Seta Mall.¡± Grimm originally thought that he could see the real deal and what a living alien looked like. It seemed that this idea had to be shelved for a while. As he entered the spaceship, the small spaceship began to turn back and quickly approached a large spaceship. After more than ten minutes, the small spaceship finally arrived at the Seta Mall. Grimm felt that it was a little inappropriate to say that it was a mall. In front of him, in the endless dark deep space, there was a huge spaceship. The size of this spaceship was at least a hundred times bigger than his own spaceship. Moreover, the spaceship was covered with turrets and energy weapons. It was simply a great weapon of war. The Seta people used this kind of thing as a self-service shopping mall, which surprised Grimm a little. But thinking about it carefully, it was not surprising. There might be many space pirates in the universe. In order to prevent space pirates from robbing, the Seta shopping mall had to be fully armed. In fact, if the Seta shopping mall did not have such a powerful attack and defense system, even he want to plunder it. After a few minutes, the small spaceship entered a gate that opened on the large spaceship. The spaceship landed and the gate closed. Grimm also climbed down from the spaceship. ¡°Hello, distinguished customer. I am shopping robot 009. I shall be providing you with shopping services.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Grimm nodded. He was already used to being followed by humanoid robots. Anyway, the Seta people were doing business. As long as he didn¡¯t do anything out of the ordinary, these humanoid robots wouldn¡¯t attack him. Following 009 into the passage, the two of them passed by a scanning door. [ User membership card identified, membership user! ] [ You will a enjoy a 20% discount on all goods in the mall! ] [ You can enter the restaurant for free without any restriction! ] ¡°What? Automatic identification?¡± At the side, robot 009 said respectfully, ¡°Dear member user, would you like to have a meal first?¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Grimm also wanted to see what delicious food there was, so he agreed. The robot walked forward and brought Grimm into a place that was similar to a supermarket. However, they did not enter the supermarket entrance. Instead, they went directly to the restaurant next to it. The restaurant was very spacious. It was enough for more than a hundred people to eat together. However, the restaurant was now empty. Grimm guessed that this was the dining place prepared for the players. However, he was the first player to find Seta Mall, so he was the only one here. 009 reminded him. ¡°The appropriate air composition has been mixed here. You may leave the mech to eat.¡± Grimm nodded. It was indeed impossible to have a normal meal in the mech. He got out of the mech and put away his spacesuit. Only then did he enter the restaurant and find a comfortable seat to sit down. It had to be said that the air here was quite fresh. It was even more comfortable than the air on earth that he had lived on previously. No! He felt that the air here seemed to be even fresher! 009 handed over an electronic menu. Grimm took it over and looked at it. He was instantly stunned. On the menu, there were a few lines of information and pictures. Today¡¯s dishes: Fruit salad Tomato stewed beef brisket Fresh shrimp cheese pizza Beef Burger Cream mushroom soup ¡°This¡­¡± Grimm raised his head and looked at 009. ¡°All of these things are available?¡± ¡°Yes, we prepare different kinds of ingredients on the menu every day. There¡¯s an unlimited supply!¡± Nodding his head, Grimm directly said, ¡°All of them. One serving of each!¡± Ever since Grimm entered this game world, the most delicious thing that he had was French fries. He didn¡¯t expect that he could eat so many delicious foods today. Fruits, vegetables, meat, soup. This place actually had all of them. When he waited for the dishes to be served, Grimm was already a little impatient. Finally, after waiting for a few minutes, 009 brought out the dishes one by one. The first thing he saw was the fruit salad. There were bananas, oranges, dragon fruits, and small tomatoes in the fruit salad! He couldn¡¯t wait to taste it and exclaimed that it was very refreshing and delicious. Next, the remaining four dishes were also brought out by 009. Grimm tasted them one by one and ate them to his heart¡¯s content. A whole piece of fresh shrimp cheese spread was all eaten up by him in less than five minutes. When all the other food was finished, Grimm drank a big bowl of cream mushroom soup with great pleasure! He was about to get up and leave when 009 handed him another drink. Chapter 38 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation ¡°Today¡¯s free drink, Cola, please enjoy!¡± ¡°What the F * ck? Cola?¡± Grimm felt that the last time he drank this kind of fat otaku water was in his previous life. He even almost forgot the taste of this cola. He couldn¡¯t wait to taste it. Grimm was surprised to find that this cola was actually still cold. ¡°It¡¯s so delicious!¡± He felt that this thing was delicious from the bottom of his heart. He drank the whole glass in one go. Then he looked at 009 with a longing look. ¡°Another glass!¡± Just like that, after a full meal, Grimm drank another three large glasses of Coke, which made him burp nonstop as he left the restaurant. However, anyone who hadn¡¯t eaten such delicious food in such a long time and hadn¡¯t drunk such delicious coke would probably be stuffed to death. It was safer here. Grimm no longer clutched tightly onto the inside of the mecha and directly walked into the supermarket. Once he entered the supermarket, Grimm saw rows and rows of neatly arranged shelves. However, these shelves were different from ordinary supermarkets. The commodities inside were all weapons and equipment. Grimm walked in and took a look. The first thing he saw was familiar equipment. ¡°Heavy firepower Gatling?¡± ¡°Thunder dragon violence Gatling?¡± Grimm carefully looked at the label and found that the prices of these two items were not low. Product: Heavy firepower Gatling Price: 500 energy ores Description: possesses powerful firepower. Carries 1000 machine gun bullets. Rapid firing speed and great power, but can only be used by exoskeletons or mechas. Product: Thunder dragon violence Gatling Price: 800 energy ore Description: Uses special bullets, equipped with 500 bullets. Has low firing speed but is very powerful. Equivalent to a low-power machine gun, but requires an exoskeleton or mech to use. Grimm nodded. This thing¡¯s power probably wasn¡¯t small. He continued to look behind and found another product. Item: Armor-piercing hunting crossbow Price: 800 energy ores Description: Armor-piercing crossbow bolt is required. It has extremely high attack power and can even penetrate the deck of an ordinary spaceship. ¡°What the f * ck? So awesome?¡± Looking to the side, Grimm saw armor-piercing crossbow bolt. Item: Armor-piercing crossbow bolt Price: 50 energy ores Description: A specially made crossbow bolt that can penetrate thick and heavy armor. Grimm walked all the way inside and saw more and more weapons and equipment. At the back, he even saw a few mechas. Of course, he could not afford mechas. Those mechas were priced in the tens of thousands. The cheapest one could only be bought with 30,000 energy ores. However, that mecha was obviously not as useful as his own mecha. Grimm did not need to strengthen the combat strength of the spaceship now. What he needed was to prepare some powerful equipment for the mecha. He searched around and finally locked his target on a few items. Item: Heavenly Sacred Shield Price: 3000 energy ores Description: High-strength alloy shield. It can resist almost any attack. It can also be used as a fortress when necessary! Item: Electromagnetic sniper cannon Price: 5000 energy ores Description: its range is extremely long. It can easily destroy hard armor plates. Special ammunition is required. Product: Electromagnetic sniper shells Price: 100 energy ores Description: Electromagnetic Sniper Cannon Special Ammunition. Grimm calculated. He needed to buy a heavenly sacred shield, an electromagnetic sniper cannon, and at least 20 electromagnetic sniper shells. Adding these things together, he needed to pay 10,000 energy ores. But the problem was that he only had more than 5,000 energy ores on hand. It was simply not enough. ¡°Then¡­ There is only one way now!¡± Grimm quickly walked to the entrance of the supermarket and said to 009, ¡°I want 12 heavy firepower gatling ores!¡± ¡°Okay, you need to pay 6,000 energy ores. After a 20% discount, you need to pay 4,800 energy ores!¡± Grimm happily handed the 4,800 energy ores to 009. The next moment, he received a notification. [ Acquired: Heavy Firepower Gatling x12! ] ¡°Hehe!¡± Grimm smiled slightly and directly hung these 12 heavy firepower Gatling in the trading center. [ Heavy firepower gatling X1 trading energy ores X700! ] Grimm raised the price of 200 energy ores based on the original price of heavy firepower gatling. However, he believed that someone would buy it! The next moment, he opened the communication channel and sent a message. [12 heavy-duty Gatling guns, 700 energy ores, 1,000 machine-gun bullets, on a first-come, first-served basis ] In an instant, the communication channel exploded! [ What? Gatlin ] [ What the fuck? The big man¡¯s a badass. He¡¯s got 12 in his hand ] [ This thing is too expensive! ] [ Can¡¯t afford it! Can¡¯t afford it! ] [ You guys don¡¯t know what¡¯s good for you. This is a Gatlin, and it even comes with machine gun bullets. It¡¯s too f * cking powerful! ] [ What the f * ck, half of it has already been bought! ] [ They must¡¯ve been bought by large teams. We small fries can¡¯t afford it! ] ¡­ Grimm smiled. Sure enough, someone was willing to spend this price to buy Gatlin. From time to time, a trade message popped up on the interface of his trade center. [ Trade successful, obtained: Energy ore X 700! ] ¡­ In less than ten minutes, all the trades were completed. He checked his balance and found that he already had more than 9,000 energy ores in his hands! ¡°Continue!¡± Grimm smiled and said to 009, ¡°I¡¯ll buy 22 more heavy firepower Gatling!¡± ¡°Okay! The total is 8,800 energy ores!¡± Grimm nodded and immediately handed the 8,800 energy ores to 009. The next moment, a notification appeared. [ Acquired: Heavy firepower Gatling x22! ] With the same price, Grimm hung all these heavy firepower Gatling in the trading center. This time, the speed of the transaction was obviously slower. He was waiting for the transaction to be completed one by one, but 009 suddenly reminded him. ¡°Seta Mall will close in 30 minutes. Do you need other goods?¡± ¡°Close in 30 minutes?¡± Grimm was speechless. He had thought of everything, but he didn¡¯t expect that Seta Mall would close. ¡°Okay, wait a little longer!¡± Grimm anxiously stared at his trade reminder. When the 11th trade was completed, Grimm finally let out a sigh of relief. Now, he had just over 8,000 energy ores left. Without hesitation, Grimm said to 009, ¡°I want a heavenly sacred shield, an electromagnetic sniper cannon, and 20 electromagnetic sniper shells.¡± 009 nodded and said to Grimm, ¡°A total of 10,000 energy ores. After a 20% discount, you need to pay 8,000 energy ores.¡± ¡°Beautiful!¡± Grimm quickly paid for the energy ores. In an instant, he received a notification. [ Acquired: Heavenly Sacred Shield x 1! ] [ Acquired: Electromagnetic sniper cannon X 1! ] [ Acquired: Electromagnetic sniper cannon ammunition X 20! ] At this time, there were less than five minutes before Seta mall closed. Grimm was sent to a small spaceship by 009 and then returned to his own spaceship. Chapter 39 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation At this moment, when he looked over there, the Seta mall was not only closed, but had also turned on its thrusters and was rapidly speeding off. ¡°What the f * ck?¡± ¡°Can the spaceship chase the target?¡± [ The target¡¯s speed is too high, it cannot be chased! ] Grimm shook his head. It seemed that the game restricted players from staying in the mall for too long. He checked his own transaction information. There were still ten transactions that had not been completed. Grimm smiled. ¡°You think it¡¯s too expensive, right? I¡¯m not in a hurry to sell it!¡± He cancelled the ten transactions and directly revised the price before sending it out again. [ Heavy firepower Gatling x 1 exchange for energy ore x 800! ] In the blink of an eye, the price increased by another 100 energy ores. He opened the communication channel and shouted to the players. [ Heavy firepower gatling, only 10 left! ] When everyone saw this message, they were in a heated discussion. [ F * ck? Why did the price increase again? ] [ This is too f * cking expensive! ] [ Greedy! Too greedy! ] [ Oh my God, someone actually bought it! ] Grimm smiled. Although the price had increased, the quantity was too small. The rarer the item, the more valuable it was. The players knew that there were only ten heavy firepower Gatlings left. Even if they felt that it was too expensive, they still had to buy it. At the very least, this item was more than enough to deal with ordinary monsters and robots. If they did not have close-range weapons, they might not even be able to safely enter the simplest ruins. In less than twenty minutes, the last ten transactions that Grimm hung in the trading center had all been completed. This time, he really made a big profit. Not only did he get two new pieces of equipment, but he also earned a lot of energy ores. When he had the chance to encounter the Seta Mall in the future, he could still buy a lot of equipment. After working for a long time, Grimm also felt sleepy. It just so happened that he had a good meal in the Seta Mall. He didn¡¯t even need to eat, so he could directly rest, have a good sleep, and rest well. Thinking of this, Grimm yawned and laid down in the sleep pod. Time flew by. Four hours had passed. Grimm felt that it was rare for him to have a good sleep. Usually, he would encounter a crisis situation before he woke up. He was not in a hurry to get out of the sleep pod. He laid down and opened the check-in system. The next moment, the system notification popped up. [ Ding! Check-in successful. Seta technology propeller X 1 obtained! ] [ Seta technology thruster x 1 received a 100-fold increase. Received Seta flame matrix thruster x 1! ] ¡°What the f * ck?¡± Grimm smiled. He had seen the Seta civilization¡¯s spaceship thruster before. The previous Seta Mall¡¯s spaceship flew extremely fast. His own spaceship was simply not on the same level as it. This was great. He had actually received a Seta flame matrix thruster. It sounded extremely advanced. He immediately checked the description of this propeller. [ Seta flame-spitting matrix propeller ] [ Description: It is composed of 64 small propellers. In addition to possessing a higher propulsion speed, one can also control the direction of the spaceship¡¯s flight with greater sensitivity, greatly increasing the reaction speed of the spaceship. ] Grimm nodded. With the coordination of the 64 small propellers, of course, they could control the spaceship more precisely. He immediately climbed out of the sleeping cabin and ordered the installation of new thrusters. After more than ten minutes, the installation of the thrusters at the rear of the spacecraft was completed. In the spacecraft, Grimm could not see the situation behind. But when he gave the order and the spacecraft was moving at the fastest speed, he suddenly saw an extremely long white tail flame on the window at the back. ¡°Beautiful!¡± Grimm nodded. He felt that the speed of this propeller was at least twice as fast as the previous one. While he was happily admiring the long white tail flame behind him, Grimm suddenly received a private message. ¡°Big brother, I have bought something from you before!¡± [ Oh? What do you want to buy this time? ] Grimm had a puzzled look on his face. This person did not look like he was here to buy something. [ You should quickly go to the communication channel and take a look. There¡¯s a pirate gang that wants to look for trouble with you! ] [ This¡­ ] Grimm was speechless. He didn¡¯t seem to have provoked any pirate gang recently? Shaking his head, Grimm directly opened the communication channel. In an instant, he saw a series of messages. [ Grimm? Do you dare to come and fight with our pirate gang? ] [ I have an ID tracking locator in my hand. Your position is really far. If you have the guts, come and fight with us! ] [ Of course, if you lose, we will get all your resources. I know that you are developing very well! ] Grimm speechlessly replied to a message. [ You know that I am very fat. Where did you get the courage to fight with me? ] Everyone saw Grimm¡¯s reply and agreed one after another. [ Pirates overestimate themselves! ] [ How could a pirate like you fight a big shot? ] [ A bunch of scumbags, do you really think you¡¯re invincible? ] Seeing that everyone was ridiculing him, that pirate actually didn¡¯t get angry. Instead, he ridiculed and sent a message over. [ I have 100 people under me. Everyone here, who do you think will be able to fight with my pirate gang? ] [ What the f * ck? ] [ This development is too fast! ] [ 100 men¡­ You can¡¯t handle this numbers tactic! ] Grimm was also a little shocked. He could not understand how this guy could recruit so many men in less than ten days. After all, in this vast universe, even meeting a few more people was a luxury much less recruiting men. Under such circumstances, how did this guy find so many pirates, and these people were willing to listen to his orders? ¡°Don¡¯t underestimate the enemy. It seems that this guy has some special methods!¡± Grimm thought so and replied in the communication channel. [ If you want to start trouble with me, go ahead. But I don¡¯t have time to wait for you. Whether you can find me or not depends on how capable you are. If you can¡¯t find me, don¡¯t say that I¡¯m hiding from you, it¡¯s because you¡¯re too weak! ] As soon as this message was sent out, the pirate became depressed. [ Grimm, if you have the guts, then just wait for me on the spot! ] [ Haha? Are You Out of your mind? I¡¯m so busy, how could I have the time to wait for you? Save it! ] ¡°You!¡± Grimm did not continue to check the message, but directly closed the communication channel. In fact, he did not want to get in touch with the other party. Firstly, he really was not in the mood to wait for him. Secondly, the number of people in this pirate gang was indeed too many. 100 people were equivalent to 100 spaceships. Although he was powerful, he was not confident that he could deal with 100 players alone. He was thinking when suddenly, a warning appeared on the radar scan. [ Warning: An unknown spaceship is approaching! ] [ Warning: Three unknown spaceships are approaching! ] [ Warning: 11 unknown spaceships are approaching! ] ¡­ ¡°What the F * ck?¡± ¡°Could it be that pirate?¡± Grimm was speechless. These guys had actually chased to his nearby location. Chapter 40 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Of course, his radar could detect the them, but they might not be able to detect him. If his guess was not wrong, the pirate used an ID tracking locator to track his direction. But that thing could only be used once a day. In other words, after they determined his approximate direction and distance, they could not predict his movements. ¡°Spaceship immediately turn left and push forward at full speed!¡± Grimm gave the order and the spaceship immediately turned around. The Seta flame-spitting matrix propeller was indeed very flexible. The turn was actually completed in less than 30 seconds. ¡°Since you¡¯re here, then I¡¯ll try my best to entertain You!¡± ¡°But, how should I do it exactly¡­¡± Grimm was deep in thought when he suddenly saw a reaction from the impulse detector at the side. [ Wormhole discovered. Wormhole will disappear in 28 hours, 9 minutes and 55 seconds! ] ¡°That long?¡± Grimm quickly checked the direction of the spaceship and then looked at the location of the wormhole. He suddenly smiled. ¡°The location of this wormhole is too considerate!¡± Grimm found that the location of this wormhole was exactly where the pirates would be passing by. However, with their movement trajectory, they would not directly rush into it. He could make use of the advantage of his radar. At a safe distance where they could not find his position, he could circle behind them and launch a sneak attack. Of course, the location of the sneak attack would be near the wormhole. The first wave of sneak attack would kill a part of the pirates first. By the time they reacted, he would¡¯ve already escaped through the wormhole. This time, Grimm¡¯s goal was not to kill the pirates, but to exhaust them. As for when to kill them all¡­ it would be better to wait for a better opportunity. He had been moving in the direction away from the target, and the Pirates had gradually passed by the location of the wormhole. Grimm waited patiently. While eating, he observed the position of the pirate ship on the radar scan. Gradually, more than ten hours had passed. Just when Grimm was bored to death, he suddenly saw the appearance of the space resources today. Grimm immediately ordered the spaceship to stop and let the mechanical claw capture the resources. He looked at the radar map and found that the pirates had actually stopped as well. They were probably also collecting the space resources. In the next moment, the mechanical claw had already captured a space treasure chest. Grimm smiled and quickly checked. [ You have captured a space treasure chest x 1! ] [ Acquired: Fiery ore x 2! ] [ Fiery ore x 2 has a 100-fold increase, acquired fiery ore x 200! ] [ Acquired: Baguette X 1! ] [ Baguette X 1 has a 100-fold increase, acquired baguette x 100! ] [ Obtained: Canned tuna x 1! ] [ Canned tuna x 1 + has a 100-fold increase, acquired canned tuna x 100! ] ¡°What the f * ck?¡± Grimm did not expect to get so much food all at once. Baguette, canned tuna. It seemed great to eat them together. Of course, he could not eat so much food alone. Canned tuna was good for storage. He planned to keep them all. As for Baguette, he would sell them directly! Opening the trading center, Grimm directly put 100 baguettes on it. The content of the transaction was still energy ore. [ Baguette x 1, energy ore x 10! ] The transaction content was copied 100 times. Grimm nodded in satisfaction and came to the exchange center. [ Those pirates who want to kill me, are you guys still hungry? I¡¯m selling baguettes here. There are exactly 100 of them! ] [ What the f* ck? Grimm, are you f * cking mocking me? ] He did not expect that the pirates were also checking the news in the communication channel. The other players saw the situation and came to join in the fun. [ Baguettes are too expensive! ] [ I¡¯m afraid the pirates can¡¯t afford it! ] [ Boss, your way of taunting is too wicked! ] [ It¡¯s really expensive. Once the pirates buy it, they¡¯ll be poor! ] Grimm smiled slightly and replied to the message. [ The price is set. I¡¯m not in a hurry! ] [ Grimm! Just you wait! ] That pirate seemed to be very angry. If they bought this baguette, they would be fools. If they didn¡¯t buy it, they would humiliated for being poor. Regardless of what they did, they would be ridiculed. In fact, Grimm was not playing to annoy the pirates. He just thought that since he had to publicize the content of his trade anyway and this pirate were starting trouble with him, he might as well take the opportunity to ridicule him first. Although the price of this baguette bread was high, there were always some players who still couldn¡¯t fill their stomachs. Therefore, Grimm was not worried that no one would buy it. As expected, gradually, he received notifications of the trade. [ Transaction successful, obtained: energy ore x 10! ] [ Transaction successful, obtained: energy ore x 10! ] ¡­ Half an hour later, all the transactions were completed. Just these 100 baguettes allowed him to earn 1,000 energy ores. At this time, the mechanical claw had already collected all the space resources. Grimm then ordered the spaceship to continue moving forward and maintain a safe distance from the pirates. Then, he opened a can of tuna, took out a piece of toast, and began to enjoy the delicious food. The toast was soft and fluffy, and the canned tuna was delicious. It was simply a kind of enjoyment to enjoy these two kinds of food together. Presumably, in this world, only he could eat such delicious food at every meal. After flying for a few more hours, Grimm ordered the spaceship to turn around. At this time, the Pirates¡¯ 100 spaceships had already reached his planned position. It was time to return and prepare to launch a sneak attack. After flying for several hours, Grimm finally flew to his planned position. At this time, the Pirates¡¯ spaceships were still dazily advancing towards the original direction, while he had already appeared behind them. Moreover, near Grimm was the wormhole that was about to disappear. ¡°Now, it¡¯s time to fire!¡± Grimm immediately gave the order. ¡°High-energy pulse heavy cannon, charge, fire!¡± Although this distance was very far, Grimm had a powerful radar, so he could launch an attack at a position that the opponent could not detect. Of course, the power of the high-energy pulse heavy cannon would be greatly reduced in this way. But it did not matter. As long as the opponent did not have an energy shield, even if the power of the high-energy pulse was weakened because of the distance, it was enough to destroy several spaceships. ¡°Fire!¡± In an instant, the high-energy pulse cannon shot out a white light. ¡°Charge, fire!¡± Grimm continued to give orders. The high-energy pulse cannon fired another shot. Next, Grimm ordered the pulse cannon to fire continuously. On the other side, the pirates¡¯ spaceships were looking for Grimm¡¯s position according to the plan, but they were suddenly attacked by the pulse cannon. Boom! Boom! Boom! The last few spaceships were instantly hit by the high-energy pulse. ¡°Captain, our spaceships are under attack!¡± ¡°Where are the enemies?¡± ¡°There¡¯s nothing on the radar!¡±
