After nearly twenty years, Qu Jianlei set foot on Celestial Hook Star again, and I felt some inexplicable emotion in my heart.
The scenery is still the same, but people's mood and situation are completely different.
However, it is precisely because the scenery has not changed much that he can come back again and play "dark under the light".
To put it bluntly, Sky Hook was the original Central Star of Starfield. Since Central Star was replaced by Sky Handle, it has continued to decline.
Both the industry and the population on the planet have been moving outwards continuously.
It is not an exaggeration to call this situation "retaliatory loss". Now Sky Hook has almost fallen to the same level as Skyblade.
You must know that the comprehensive conditions of Skyblade are actually far inferior to Sky Hook - the conditions for Sky Hook to become Central Star are very strong.
But now that resource development is worse than Buduo, and the status of Central Star has been lost, what can we do to retain people?
What, someone said historical background? Don't be ridiculous, it's a star field near the edge. How dare you mention history?
It is precisely because of this that Nutrient Solution arranged for someone to buy a large piece of land.
This land covers more than 3,000 square kilometers and was once the residence of a big shot.
With the transfer of Central Star's status, capable people went to Sky Handle one after another, and the other courtyard became increasingly depressed and was finally sold.
The basic facilities of the other courtyard are complete, and Nutrient Solution is not stingy with it. When the host left, he basically took nothing with him.
Except for some outdated equipment, it is definitely the best choice to move in with your bags.
What's rare is that even Training Field and a basement have everything you need, so the Qu Jianlei team hardly needs to make any modifications.
Three days before moving in, everyone thoroughly inspected the entire courtyard.
Except for finding a Secret Passage leading to the outside of the mountain, the host family left no backup plan and walked very simply and magnanimously.
The existence of Secret Passage is normal. Even in a world of extraordinary existence, it is difficult to quickly dig up a Underground Passage without leaving any trace.
In short, since he is a big shot, he must pay more attention to his own safety than others. This is only natural.
After investigation, it was found that the descendant of the big shot left too quickly and forgot that there was still a Secret Passage - after all, it had never been used before.
After blocking Secret Passage, everyone set up Gathering Spirit Array and the super Calculation Unit the next day.
This time, Qu Jianlei was not the only one who was busy. For example, Paranoid began to find animals to test octopus meat.
Another example is Qinghu. She actually started to wonder if she could plant Spirit Rice.
Bentley and Qu Jianlei took some of Other Space's ores - he wanted to transform his own weapons.
Others use Broken Sword Essence Spiritual Energy, and the effect is good, but he is a little worse.
On the contrary, if he uses Broken Sword or dagger frequently, it will cause slight damage to the weapon.
Lao Ben is a very conscious person. After discovering this phenomenon, he decisively stopped this behavior.
He went to ask the boss for advice, but the boss could only say: You Electromagnetic Attribute... Even if you put it on Divine Script System, you are quite different.
Bentley doesn't want to damage public resources, but tempering spiritual energy is also urgently needed, so he can only find a way on his own.
Frankly speaking, when Qu Jianlei heard about his plan, they all nodded: That's a weapon refining, I don't even have the guts to try it!
But how to say it? Sooner or later, someone has to do this, and Lao Ben has learned mechanical maintenance after all.
So Qu Jianlei gave him some ore and asked him to study the various properties of the ore.
As for the possible losses... he did his own research, wouldn't it also cause losses? If you want to study the basic properties of ore, it is impossible without loss.
Anyway, the amount of each type of ore in the oversized Item-Storing Ring is not too small, and it is probably common in Cultivation World.
Originally, the logistics boss should pay more attention to bulk goods.
Then, Qu Jianlei appointed Zi Jiuxian as Lao Ben's deputy - this is Academy Faction. The two of them can complement each other well.
In addition, Mu Yu is addicted to researching pills, especially those pills Qu Jianlei just got.
——She was frozen for two hundred years and finally got a new life. The feeling was so profound.
The boss had always said before that she didn't have Divine Script System pills, but now that there are finally some, she wanted to do some research.
Mu Yu is not a novice when it comes to studying elixirs. Before she was frozen, she was very interested in pharmacology and physiology.
——After all, he was once hailed as a once-in-a-century genius. Since he is a genius, he must want to make himself even more genius.
At the very least, you have to retain your halo, right? So she has certain attainments in both areas.
As for Nutrient Solution, Old Lady Jia and Mu Guang, they all have their own things to worry about.
In short, the whole team became busy because they got the Item-Storing Ring.
But this is also a good thing. Team matters should be worked together by everyone, and we can't just point at him, the boss.
Before, everyone didn't have enough resources and couldn't find the direction to work hard. Now we can finally show off our talents.
Qu Jianlei believes that the IQs of this large wave of cultivation geniuses in the team are definitely much higher than ordinary people.
He also has some small expectations for the research results they may produce...
Next, Qu Jianlei studied the eight-day talisman and tried various methods to make talisman paper.
Unfortunately, they all failed, and nothing was gained. At most, they only eliminated a few impossible options.
It is said that it can eliminate the options, which is not bad. After all, everything is difficult at the beginning, and this is not the first time that he has immersed himself in groping.
On the ninth day, two of the twenty Spirit Rices cultured by Qinghu had faintly visible bulges.
She specially found Mu Guang from Wood Attribute and asked him to feel if it was a sign of germination.
Mu Guang After sensing it, I am very sure that life has burst out from inside, but it seems to be still some distance away from germination...
In short, no matter what happens to these two Spirit Rices in the future, at least for now, they are basically on the right path.
Two days later, good news came from Bentley.
Through experiments, he discovered that a kind of ore has a high electromagnetic affinity, and the electromagnetic force does not affect the ordering of metal particles.
He has no clue about other ores yet - after all, he wants to build weapons for himself first.
Currently Bentley is planning various purification plans.
Because of the help of Zi Jiuxian, the two discussed seriously what possible materials would be needed to make an alloy.
For this reason, the two specially found Qu Jianlei and asked the boss to help take a look at where the relevant plans were immature.
Immediately afterwards, Paranoid also found a way to dilute the energy contained in octopus meat.
The method has flaws, mainly because after the energy is diluted, it is lost a bit quickly, which is not conducive to preservation.
But Paranoid didn't take it seriously and was already conducting animal experiments.
In his words, first solve the existing problems and then improve the plan.
Several things happened one after another, and inexplicably, Qu Jianlei became restless.
Ordinarily, he has been engaged in R&D alone for many years, so he would not be able to calm down even this little bit - how can R&D be accomplished overnight? The research of those three people has made progress, which is also a good thing for everyone - strictly speaking, it is actually very preliminary progress.
Qu Jianlei doesn't think that he will be jealous of his teammates. The more capable his teammates are, the less he has to worry about.
But he still noticed that something was wrong with his emotions.
In the next few experiments, he did them more hastily, as if something was chasing him, so he naturally failed.
Qu Jianlei calmed down and felt that he might still be a little affected, so he decided to let himself relax for two days.
By this time, everyone had been living in another courtyard for almost half a month, and it felt like no one was bothering them.
He thought about it, then took out Item-Storing Ring and looked at the jars and jars inside.
When he opened the first box, he was surprised - isn't this a talisman?
He used a lot of restraint to suppress the idea of testing the talisman.
It's not that I can't calm down, it's that I have been experiencing failures a while ago and my mood is not stable enough.
He looked for similar boxes and opened a few more. Sure enough, they were still talismans, but of a different type.
It's truly a mobile arsenal! Qu Jianlei thought about it and chose another inconspicuous box - there are dozens of such boxes.
When the box was opened, a burst of spiritual energy rushed in. Inside was a bright red six-sided energy body.
Spiritual stone! Qu Jianlei understood instantly that this was definitely a spiritual stone! It's not easy. After so many years of cultivating immortality, I finally saw a spiritual stone for the first time!
With his heart surging, his breath inevitably fluctuated a little, and then a few rays of spiritual consciousness fell down.
The next moment, a figure flashed over, it was Paranoid, "I'll go, boss... is this a spiritual stone?"
As soon as he finished speaking, four more figures flashed over, namely Mu Yu, Old Lady Jia, Qinghu and Mu Guang.
Except Nutrient Solution went out to do errands, that is, Bentley did not join in the fun, which shows that Lao Ben is still...
Okay, I take back my comment! Qu Jianlei looked helplessly at Lao Ben who came a step late.
However, Bentley was obviously a little confused. He was alarmed by the reactions of several supremes.
Then he looked at the box of bright red energy bodies, and then froze there, "This..."
"It can only be used in emergencies," Qu Jianlei handed out the box, "Each person takes ten yuan to get used to it."
In this box, there are one hundred spiritual stones. It doesn't matter if each person takes ten.
When the boss spoke, everyone naturally refused. After everyone took away ten spiritual stones, Bentley was the first to speak.
"Boss, are there any magic weapons in Space Ring?"
His electromagnetic power mainly affects weapons and has little effect on magical weapons.
Unfortunately, different magical weapons have different effects of essence spiritual energy. Generally speaking, they are a little worse than weapons.
The common magic weapon in the team is currently the Old Umbrella, which is still in the hands of Jia Shuiqing most of the time.
Qu Jianlei glanced at him and said, "I haven't had time to sort it out yet. You should concentrate on refining the weapon... It's not easy for me to catch a coolie."
