Chapter 3 Star Core
During the long war with alien creatures, humans discovered that alien creatures can produce a crystal called star core in their bodies.
This crystal can be used as a substitute for small nuclear power energy, and can also be absorbed by the human body.
Absorbing star core can greatly improve the basic qualities of the human body in all aspects. If you are lucky, it can also allow the superpower to have new superpowers.
However, the probability of this kind of star core is extremely low, and it will only be produced in the body of a powerful alien creature.
Liu Cheng couldn't help but secretly say that he was very lucky. He was able to dissect a fragment of a star core from a level one steel thorn wolf.
He put the star core fragment into his bag, and he has not yet decided whether to absorb it himself or sell it for money.
If he sells it for money, his father's hospitalization expenses will be reduced a lot.
If he absorbs it himself, he can improve his survival ability on the battlefield. Both are very attractive to Liu Cheng.
But after thinking about it, if he wants to sell the star core fragment for money, he must survive on the training battlefield first.
It is still more beneficial to absorb it.
Liu Cheng was very happy after dissecting the star core.
After taking out the brain of the steel wolf, he did not search for other worthless organs on the steel wolf.
He walked to the second steel wolf's body. With the previous experience, he was much faster in cutting open the head of the steel wolf this time.
But when he cut open the brain of the second steel wolf, he was stunned again.
"What the hell?
Another star core fragment?"
Liu Cheng exclaimed.
Looking at the second star core fragment that appeared with a faint blue light, Liu Cheng wondered if he was dreaming for a while.
It can't be blamed on him for not having seen the world.
This kind of thing of winning two third-prize alliance lottery tickets in a row, even the rich would be a little confused.
He didn't even take out the brain of the steel wolf this time. After putting the star core in his bag, he went straight to the third body.
"There can't be any more star core fragments?"
Liu Cheng went straight to the point this time and cut towards the brain of the steel wolf.
As a result, after cutting open the brain of the steel wolf, another star core fragment with a faint fluorescent light appeared in front of him.
The brains of the remaining dozen or so steel wolf corpses were dissected in one go, and it turned out that there was a shiny star core fragment in the brain of each steel wolf.
"Did I save the Milky Way in my previous life?"
Liu Cheng was completely dumbfounded this time.
When the first pie falling from the sky hits you, you will feel happy, and when you are hit by the second pie, you will feel puzzled.
But when you are hit by more than a dozen pies in a row, there is only panic in your heart.
Liu Cheng couldn't figure out the reason, and planned to ask them after Tian Tiantian came back.
He immediately gave up the idea. A dozen star core fragments would cause a scramble wherever they were placed.
So Liu Cheng put all the dozen star core fragments into his bag and decided to keep it secret for the time being.
At least before he figured out the reason, he must not tell anyone, not even his family.
About half an hour later, the sandstorm had dissipated and the communication equipment had restored the signal.
Tian Tiantian's voice came from the communication channel.
"We have found a safe place, and everyone has already met there. I will go back to find you."
"Okay."
After Liu Cheng replied, the communication equipment was silent, which was in line with Tian Tiantian's usual indifferent personality.
After meeting Liu Cheng, Tian Tiantian didn't say much, and directly waved to Liu Cheng to follow.
Liu Cheng followed Tian Tiantian to the temporary safe point to meet up with everyone.
The girl who had teamed up with Tian Tiantian before saw Liu Cheng coming back, and said sarcastically:
"Hey, isn't this the useless person in our class? How is it, how is the harvest of picking up garbage?"
She was obviously still dissatisfied with Liu Cheng because of Liu Cheng's previous "head-grabbing" behavior.
There is a profession dedicated to recycling and processing the corpses of alien creatures on the alien battlefield. This kind of people is called garbage men.
Their behavior of handling corpses is jokingly called picking up garbage.
The income of garbage men is not stable. Those who earn less may just be enough to fill their stomachs, while those who earn more are beautiful women, wine and warships.
Dissecting alien creatures is a very dirty and tiring job.
In addition, most of the bodies they recovered and processed were killed by frontline soldiers at the risk of their lives, so they were not welcomed by the public.
Liu Cheng was now thinking about figuring out the core fragments, and didn't pay much attention to the girl's ridicule and questioning, and said casually:
"Well, it's okay."
The girl who ridiculed Liu Cheng was stunned. She didn't expect Liu Cheng to answer so calmly.
After a moment, she felt something was wrong again.
What valuable things can there be on a dozen first-level alien creatures? Even if all the organs are sold, they can't add up to 2,000 yuan.
So she thought that people like Liu Cheng might have never seen any big money, and the ridicule in her heart was even greater.
The temporary safe point that the 2027 team was looking for was in the ruins of a human building.
They had checked that there were no alien creatures around, so they decided to take a short break here.
Li Kang sat by the fire and analyzed the situation they were going to face:
“Three combat academies are participating in this training mission, with a total of nearly 400 teams. The mission will only end after all the alien creatures on this planet are cleared.
The possibility of not encountering alien creatures by hiding until the mission is over is very low, and the ranking of this mission is related to the future of each of us.
I suggest that we take the initiative to attack as a team. What do you think? "
"I agree."
"I agree too."
Seeing that no one objected, Li Kang said to everyone:
"In this case, let's rest here for one night, and we will set out to hunt alien creatures after dawn."
After everyone dispersed, Liu Cheng couldn't help but walk to Li Kang out of curiosity.
In his impression, Li Kang and Tian Tiantian were the two best students in the class.
But Tian Tiantian looked like he didn't like to talk, so he decided to ask Li Kang about the star core fragments.
Li Kang was a little surprised to see Liu Cheng come to him on his own initiative, and asked:
"What's the matter?"
Liu Cheng went straight to the point:
"I want to ask about the star core."
"I know a little about the knowledge of the star core. What do you want to ask? ”
Actually, this was Li Kang's modest statement. Seeing that he agreed so readily, Liu Cheng knew that he had asked the right person and said:
"Hypothesis, I am talking about hypothesis.
If I dissect the corpse of a first-level alien creature, what is the probability of obtaining a star core fragment?"
In Li Kang's cognition, star core fragments could not appear in the body of a first-level alien creature.
And he didn't know that Liu Cheng stayed behind the crowd to dissect the bodies of those steel thorn wolves after the battle.
So he didn't think about the steel thorn wolves at all and said:
"I think this hypothesis is unlikely to be true.
First of all, star core fragments will not appear in the body of a first-level alien creature.
According to the records of the entire human coalition government, the lowest-level alien creature that dissected star core fragments is also the fourth level.
Although the probability of dissecting star core fragments may be greater than the whole star core, it will not appear in the body of a first-level alien creature.
Secondly, even if there is a chance of star core fragments appearing in the body of a first-level alien creature, the probability is not that great.
The higher the level of alien creatures, the higher the probability of generating star cores in their bodies. Aliens above level eight have a 100% chance of having complete star cores in their bodies.
However, a level eight alien creature can destroy a fleet, so it is difficult to kill one, let alone many.
Although low-level alien creatures are easier to hunt, the probability of them containing star cores is also decreasing with their strength.
The probability of dissecting star cores from level seven alien creatures is less than 50%.
Not to mention alien creatures of lower levels. "
These are the knowledge that Li Kang learned from the teaching website.
Liu Cheng did not doubt that Li Kang's memory was wrong, so he asked:
"So the probability of getting star cores below level seven is not even 50%? "
Li Kang shook his head:
"It's not necessarily impossible. I've seen a video on the teaching website before.
In the video, a garbage man named Augustine dissected seven complete star cores from fourteen level seven alien creatures at once.
And five star core fragments.
That time, he created the record of the highest rate of star core dissection in human history, and he seemed to be quite famous among the garbage men.
The reason why he was able to create that record seemed to be related to his dissection technique.
I don't know what kind of technique it was. "
"Is that so? Thank you."
"You're welcome. We are all classmates who graduated from the same class. If you need any help, just let me know."
Liu Cheng rarely talked to other classmates because he was discriminated against in the class.
At this moment, seeing that Li Kang's attitude towards him was obviously different from that of others, he had some good feelings towards Li Kang in his heart.
After walking back to the corner and sitting down, he thought silently in his heart,
Since the dissection of star core fragments was not due to luck, then the only explanation was due to his own supernatural ability.
It seems that he is not a so-called useless person, but has supernatural abilities similar to that of the man named Augustine.
It's just that it can't be detected in school.
