Chapter 197 A Smart Hunter Always Appears as Prey (33)

The captain with some kind of sonic-related inheritance is indeed very suitable for underwater exploration, and soon the deck of the dipped beam became busy.

Master Goser didn't give the order, and it was actually Isengard who was in charge of dispatching—his commanding ability was actually quite good, and the entire exploration team operated in an orderly and orderly manner under his command.

Soon, the four professionals in charge of underwater collection put on a full set of diving equipment, took underwater breathing medicine, and prepared to enter the sea.

And what about Ian?

Ian was happily fishing.

He was standing with Master Gesai at the moment, holding a cup of hot strong tea in his hand, sipping it in one sip.

As a professional whose alchemy and identification level is second in theory and first in practice, Ian's task is to wait for the crystal shell collection to be completed, conduct professional analysis and recover samples.

And, find out the information of 'Zhanhai Crystal Dragon'.

Although Master Gesai's basic skills are much stronger than Ian's, but without relying on tools, he still can't compare his acuity with Ian who has related psychic abilities. talents can span energy levels.

Of the four professionals who entered the sea, two were sublimators, one was the former captain, and the other was the sea-born swordsman.

The other two, one is a professional shellfish picker, and the other is the professional coastal explorer, both of whom have extremely rich experience in sea operations.

They all hold special man-made gemstone knives with sharp inscriptions, which can resist to a certain extent the invasion of water source substances, and are extremely corrosion-resistant. Grab something.

After receiving Isengarde's order, they entered the sea one by one, and there was no competition for merit—these people also knew that there were different shores in the sea. Compared with competition, mutual help and their own lives were the top priorities.

Plop, plop. The first two entrants both entered the sea in turn and returned.

Although the sea-born swordsmen and explorers did not find the undersea basin where the team leader said that the glittering crystal shells gathered, they confirmed the undercurrent in the water in this sea area and figured out the possible location of the crystal shells.

Immediately afterwards, the third explorer, the professional shell picker, brought back the first plain crystal shell—he had touched the periphery of the basin, but an undercurrent washed it away, and as an ordinary person, he couldn't stop it. It may be the shellfish group's self-defense method, so they can only grab one edge shell, and regret to return.

And the captain, who had already succeeded once before, made his final appearance... He entered the sea calmly after receiving feedback and intelligence from all the players.

Ten minutes later, he brought over a dozen plump Shimmering Crystal Shells.

The mission of the exploration team has been successfully completed, and the next step is Ian's domain.

After opening the vision horizon, Ian, who had already prepared the instrument in the cabin, glanced at the group of shellfish in front of him, and then picked the one with the most mixed and intense color to start testing.

Shimmering clam is a new species of shellfish similar to a large white clam, with tiny transparent crystals on the edge of the shell. Those crystals are not pearls, but Jingbei's 'eyes', which are multifunctional detection tools used to sense the surrounding environment's source quality, heat, and water flow, and can also perform photosensitive detection through self-luminescence.

However, for human beings, the greatest value of Shimmering Crystal Shells lies in the crystallization of high-purity natural elements that act as eyes.

Elemental crystallization is a product of the organic combination of pure source quality and matter. It is not so much a gemstone as it is a very special kind of plastic—it is hard and extremely tough, and its strength is far superior to ordinary metal materials.

But no one uses the elemental crystal as a weapon material. Its real use is actually fuel... The equal-weight energy supply of the elemental crystal is incredible. Although it has not been specifically tested, even the etheric core that Viscount Grant damaged once, its The specific impulse needs to be measured in thousands, and two fist-sized elemental crystals can make the etheric armed forces move rapidly for a long time.

"There are very few elemental crystals. The elemental crystals of hundreds of shellfish may not be the size of a fingernail—but even so, it is still a channel, and if you master the relevant breeding methods and optimize the genetic traits of crystallization from generation to generation, probably Decades later, it will be a very good source of elemental crystallization."

Recording all the data in his mind, Ian turned on the silver chip again—soon, following the flow of source matter in the mist dish, he selected and intercepted it, analyzed it bit by bit, and found that almost all of the sparkling crystal shells Information leaped before his eyes.

【Sparkling Crystal Shell (Deep Reef Sea Species)】

[Incompetence level, minor injury, normal, edible]

[The rare shellfish inhabiting the stable area at the junction of various natural spiritual energy fields filter and feed on microorganisms and algae in the sea, and use special solutions to decompose rocks to strengthen shells. The largest adult 'labyrinth species' can exceed three meters, which is extremely High-level magical beasts with potential, but the formation of giant heterogeneous bodies requires extremely harsh spiritual energy fields, and can only be seen in the maze]

[Scallop meat is extremely tough, similar to living metal, its mesh is the crystallization of high-purity elements, it is difficult to eat, only the adductor muscle has a crisp texture]

[Containing source quality: 12.4053 benchmark units]

【…】

There is not much difference between the various data and Ian's own identification results, and it is not surprising that Shimmering Crystal Shell is a labyrinth species, after all, its appearance is due to the labyrinth mutation.

What really deserves attention is the species in the deep reef sea area, not the species in the luminous sea area.

Thinking of this, Ian changed a few Shimmer crystal shells and tested them one by one.

The results are quite intriguing.

"Inshore species, Sighing Cliff species, Odell Reef species, Illusory Labyrinth Reef species, Far Sea Sword Forest species... These Shimmering Shells did not gather here naturally at all!"

After confirming this, Ian had a guess instead.

"How? What did you find?"

Master Goser brought Isengard closer, and he noticed that Ian frequently changed the shellfish he identified, apparently aware of something.

And Ian nodded slightly, he stared down at the shellfish in front of him, the clear water color light gradually faded from his eyes, turning into sharp blue: "Crystal dragons do feed on element crystal shells, I feel that these There is indeed a breath on the shell like the dragon scales, and it often looks for food here."

"Even, I ate it recently."

The old man was a little surprised, and even more delighted. He never expected to find the target so quickly, but Ian's next words made him frown slightly: "But."

This term is always unsettling.

The boy raised his head, he looked at Master Gesai and Yi Sen one by one, and said calmly: "These sparkling crystal shells are not naturally bred here."

"Someone collected them and 'raised' them."

As for who the breeder is, the result is self-evident, so the one old and the young present did not speak, but raised their heads and looked in the direction of the shore.

During the wind and rain, there were faint howls of distant sea beasts. These sounds were almost inaudible, but they actually existed and kept approaching.

Is indigenous.

Indigenous and World of Warcraft are coming soon.
