In addition to how to obtain contribution points, He Meng can also see what these contribution points can be exchanged for.

For example, the Bamboo Fruit and bamboo weapons made by Bamboo Mountain that seem to be haunting, the various items obtained from the exploration of the seabed, the antiques from hundreds or even thousands of years ago, the equipment made from the materials of Planetary Level monsters accidentally born in the ocean, the equipment used to modify one's own car, etc. Of course, there is also money.

Among them, the cheapest items are those obtained from undersea exploration, followed closely by equipment for modifying cars. Although Bamboo Fruit and bamboo weapons seem to be a bit common in He Meng's eyes, many people do not understand them, and their effects are indeed very good.

What He Meng didn't expect the most was that none of the contributions required to exchange for those antiques was less than 10,000, which was outrageous.

But in fact, this is said in the past. Antiques represent a period of history of Blue Star. These items seem to have no use for human evolution, but in fact, this is not the case. In the words of many people who have become strong people above Star Level, the importance of antiques is mentioned, especially the importance of these antiques on Blue Star, which is far beyond the ancient products of many other civilizations.

In Blue Star, when the ancients made many antiques, they would engrave their own life insights and the principles they understood into them. For those who are striving for the field, some of these antiques are items that can resonate with them to a certain extent and can inspire them, so they are not unprecious.

However, there are also a lot of antiques that are fake, and they are also based on a prestige, so in the end, the overall price has never reached an extremely high level.

He Meng calmed down and finally just bought a most conventional submarine and went into the water.

He couldn't wait to experience it, and he didn't want to see what these contributions could be exchanged for, which would make him fall into endless reverie.

"Hey kid, do you want to form a team?" A muscular dark-skinned man stopped He Meng.

He Meng shook his head and said, "No, I'm going to try it alone."

The man looked shocked and said, "Think carefully, there are many ninth-level monsters in this sea area. If you go down alone, you will be taken away by the monster soon. It is safer to follow us seven ninth-level monsters."

He Meng smiled and said, "Thanks, but it doesn't matter."

The man said, "Then be careful. You have to know that I have seen some children who are similar to you and went to the trial alone like you and failed to come back in the end. If you regret it later, you can contact me. I am Hody Flynn from Tasan Squad."

He Meng extended his hand to Hody Flynn and said while shaking hands, "If I feel that a person is not suitable, I will come to you."

After arriving at the submarine launch area, He Meng also saw the Single-person Submarine and Pingping corresponding to the combination lock he had obtained. It was nothing surprising, except that it had one more sea exit hatch than those of normal submarines, which could be used when leaving the submarine when encountering monsters in the ocean.

He Meng entered the submarine directly and opened the equipment inside.

This is a fool-proof intelligent operating system. As long as you tell the direction you want to go and the depth you want, the submarine will automatically sail. After someone leaves the cabin, the submarine will automatically float to a safe depth to avoid being destroyed in the battle. After the battle, you can call the submarine to come according to your Communication Watch.

According to He Meng's estimation, thirty meters below sea level is the most suitable area for his initial trial, and it should be slightly far away from the base, because almost no monsters dare to come near the base.

After diving for more than ten kilometers at a safe depth, He Meng allowed the submarine to continue diving until it reached a depth of thirty meters and began cruising in this area.

In the following three days, He Meng encountered a total of seven waves of fish, but almost all of them were Apprentice Level 7 and below, and more were fish below the fifth level. It seemed that after understanding the laws of human beings, these fish monsters no longer gave birth to overly powerful fish in shallow waters.

After finding a group of fish with seventh-level existence to fight, He Meng was very unhappy, which also made him understand his own strength.

The submarine dived again and reached an area of nearly 100 meters. There were a lot more scattered fish encountered here, and there were also more and more sixth- and seventh-level fish.

Finally, He Meng encountered a relatively large school of fish, including no more than five ninth-level fish monsters, which made He Meng overjoyed.

Since there are too many species in the ocean and they were not well explored during the Great Nirvana Period and Base City periods, most of the ocean monsters have not been named by humans. Only those monsters that reached the lord level at that time and often invaded the coastline with Beast Tide and the monsters that broke through to Planetary Level were named.

He Meng The school of fish in front of us is probably mutated from the sardines of the past.

After leaving the submarine, He Meng was immediately discovered by the fish school and surrounded.

But the knife in He Meng's hand was also unambiguous. He didn't pay attention to the monsters below the ninth level, and directly slashed towards the abdomen of the five ninth-level fish.

In the entanglement, three of the nine-level five-headed fish monsters were killed, and the remaining two quickly escaped with their own fish schools.

He Meng was not in the mood to chase. In the battle just now, he felt that the current hindered his combat effectiveness. It was too difficult and unpleasant to chase these fish that were focused on escaping. It was better to dispose of the bodies of these dead fish, load the materials onto the submarine and take a rest.

But when He Meng was disposing of the corpse, he forgot one thing, that is, the smell of blood will attract more ferocious predators.

Dozens of shark-like monsters smelled the smell of blood and came nearby, and began to swim quickly fifty or sixty meters away from He Meng.

Almost every one of these dozens of shark-like monsters is from Apprentice Level 8 to level nine, and they come from deeper places in the sea. The scars also show that they have experienced hundreds of battles.

He Meng felt that these shark-like monsters were about to move, so he simply gave up on the unfinished corpses and swam towards the submarine in the safe zone near the sea.

The moment He Meng left, the group of shark monsters quickly pounced on them, biting at the freshly dead fish carcasses.

But there are also those who are not satisfied and chase directly towards He Meng which is rising.

He Meng was always on guard against the attack of this group of shark-like monsters, but with a slight shake of his legs, he was far away from the attack path of the monsters that were rushing toward him.

By the way, He Meng also took the life of one of the shark monsters and brought its body into the safe area.

Those sharks kept swimming outside the safe zone, but they didn't dare to enter.

He Meng decomposed his harvest directly in the safe zone and threw the remaining bodies back.

After leaving this area, He Meng came to a beautiful sea area covered with various corals.

After stopping the submarine, he began to search continuously among the corals, because it was mentioned in the records that in every coral there was a possibility of finding a treasure called "Coral Spirit Glue", which seemed to be secreted by those coral polyps and could be exchanged for about 20 contribution points.

However, when He Meng just found a piece of "Coral Spirit Glue", he heard some sounds in his ears.

"It's time to trigger a wave of Beast Tide as planned, and by the way, drive out the Ray that has just reached Planetary Level from the depths of the coral land."

"Okay, then you two will gather the monster group, and I will attract the Ray."

"Let's go. We'll meet at Trial Base then."
