YM778.TV Chapter 120: Chapter 93: Plundering and Harvesting_2
As the logistics warehouse of the Second Free Fleet, the hardness of its walls was naturally unquestionable. Cang Qiong tried to break through several times, but it was unsuccessful.
Song Chi was not in a hurry. He lightly pressed the fire button of Cang Qiong\'s main cannon once and waited for it to charge. When the charge was complete, the scorching particle beam turned into a cutting ray and directly struck the edge of the warehouse door.
Under the strong piercing strength of the particle beam, a corner of the warehouse door was cut open. Along with the area of the door itself, it was barely large enough to accommodate Cang Qiong passing through.
Song Chi did not hesitate any longer. The Shadowcapture Antimatter Overstate Engine charged at full capacity, and in the next second, Cang Qiong rushed straight out.
Thud thud thud!
Hiss hiss hiss!
Amidst the heavy impact and sharp metal friction sounds, Cang Qiong narrowly escaped from the warehouse. However, before Song Chi had time to feel relieved, nearly a thousand Starshine Civilization starships above the logistics department building opened fire simultaneously.
In that instant, the entire logistics department hall seemed to become a sea of light. The colorful beams of light made Song Chi, who was staring at Cang Qiong\'s projection screen, feel a burst of pain in his eyes.
Then, intense ripples and vibrations came from the Dark Matter Energy Shield.
Once his eyes adjusted again, Song Chi instinctively looked at the Dark Matter Energy Shield Generator component.
[Shield Value: 158506/307200]
When he saw the specific number, Song Chi\'s pupils constricted sharply.
This round of concentrated fire had taken out half of the shield value of the Dark Matter Energy Shield Generator.
This situation had never occurred since the Dark Matter Energy Shield Generator was enhanced to level 29.
After a moment of shock and doubt, it turned into deep relief – relief that he had decided to retreat decisively.
Keep in mind that this was just under a thousand starships firing together. If he had waited another ten minutes, until the Starshine Civilization had gathered more than two thousand starships, the outcome for Cang Qiong would have been unpredictable.
Pushing aside the lingering fear in his heart, Song Chi dared not stay any longer. Cang Qiong\'s engines roared to life, brushing past the continuous barrage of fire from above and streaked straight toward the outer starry space.
Fortunately, the current barrage was only sporadic and not concentrated fire. Otherwise, Song Chi might have to try hiding in the Zhu Tian Ruins Market to save his life.
Several minutes later, after enduring countless attacks, Cang Qiong finally broke through the encirclement and then, without any hesitation, activated the engines at full power and entered lightspeed cruise.
To the many Starshine Civilization beings, Cang Qiong appeared as a flash of light, vanishing from their sight in the blink of an eye.
"Find out for me. A Nuclear Energy Shield this terrifying, a cruising speed near the speed of light, and how a single starship can stand against my entire Second Free Fleet – I want all the information on this warship within a day," one of them commanded.
"In addition, from today onward, increase the funding for warship research and development tenfold."
...
What Song Chi didn\'t know was that with this commotion he caused, the entire Starshine Civilization\'s attitude towards technology made a complete 180-degree turn. In the future, it even made a significant name for itself in the nearby Star Domains.
But even if he knew this, he would not care. No matter how much the Starshine Civilization increased its investment in research and development, the likelihood of it crossing paths with him again was virtually zero.
Not to mention the distance of this Star Domain from the Torch Human Civilization Territory – whether it\'s tens of millions, or hundreds of millions, or even billions or hundreds of billions of light-years.
Even if it was very close to Torch Human Civilization, let\'s not forget the vastness of the Shattered Starry Sea, which covers an immeasurable range measured in light-years, and the numerous civilizations it contains. Perhaps there is an even stronger civilization not far from this Starshine Civilization?
If that is the case, the moment the Starshine Civilization steps out of this secluded and remote Star Domain could very well be the time of its complete annihilation.
Millions of kilometers away from Starry Sea Floating Land number 004, Cang Qiong, moving at extreme speed, came to a halt. Within the airship\'s main control room, Song Chi\'s figure flashed and he quietly disappeared from Cang Qiong.
At Zhu Tian Ruins Market, the previously empty free stall area was now filled with dozens of piles of different types of mineral resources.
Besides that, there were seven Starry Sea Oddities emitting white and blue glows quietly placed aside.
In addition, there were 1000 strands of First Rank Floating Land Origin and over 10000 strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin.
These were the spoils of the adventure, totaling over sixty thousand strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin.
Together with the remnants that Song Chi had, he now had once again surpassed the one hundred thousand strand mark of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin in his hands.
In his excitement, Song Chi\'s gaze shifted towards the seven Strange Objects, focusing on two blue Oddities.
Starry III-Type Starship Cannon lv0
Quality: Blue
Consumption: 20/shot (Spectral Energy Points)
Attack: 15
Charge: 5s; Buffer: 10s
UpRank Requirement: 7 strands of Floating Land Origin (Zero Rank), 700 Spectral Energy Points
...
Starry V-Type Alloy Armor lv0
Quality: Blue
Consumption: 5/second (Spectral Energy Points)
Defence: 15
UpRank Requirement: 8 strands of Floating Land Origin (Zero Rank), 800 Spectral Energy Points
These two blue Oddities were a shipborne main cannon and a piece of warship armor. The Starry V-Type Alloy Armor was precisely what the Cang Qiong needed, but the blue main cannon wasn\'t suited for area attacks and its attributes couldn\'t compare to the Particle Beam Cannon. It would only be sold later as there was no use keeping it.
As for the five white Oddities, one couldn\'t be converted into Torch components, so Song Chi planned to throw it into the "Oddity Exchange Shop." The other four were also basic components, with nothing particularly outstanding, and would also be sold later.
Having accounted for the newly acquired resources, Song Chi logged out of the Ruins Market, of course, not without taking with him the [Healing Fruit] and [Starry V-Type Alloy Armor] components.
Returning to the Cang Qiong in the outside world, he immediately installed the two components and started their enhancement without delay.
Both components were quite crucial, and, having just acquired a thousand strands of First Rank Floating Land Origin, he directly enhanced them to lv20. Had he not been short on Second-Rank Floating Land Origin, Song Chi might have even considered enhancing them both to lv29.
After reaching lv20, the attributes of both components saw a massive improvement.
The repair effect of the special component [Healing Fruit] changed from initially repairing 5% of the warship armor to repairing 20% of the warship armor and 7% of the warship.
And the defence value of the [Starry V-Type Alloy Armor] increased from 15 to 15000.
If the Cang Qiong were to be thrown back into the previous stellar battlefield, Song Chi was confident that even without activating the Dark Matter Energy Shield Generator, the Cang Qiong could last for over three minutes without any issues.
Having enhanced the two newly acquired shipborne components, Song Chi\'s gaze turned to a brand-new star chart beside him.
This wasn\'t generated by the Eye in the Sky Scanning Radar but was specially sought by Song Chi during his earlier venture at the second Freedom Fleet base. He hadn\'t forgotten about that Second-Rank Life-Form Star Sea Floating Land, so during his raid on the base, he deliberately acquired this star chart from a destroyed Second Rank starship.
Due to its unexpected acquisition, the star chart was unaltered, and Song Chi quickly obtained the precise coordinates of the Second-Rank Starry Sea Floating Land he had been yearning for.
Realizing that this Second-Rank Floating Land was less than 40 light-years away from the Cang Qiong\'s current location, Song Chi was exceptionally excited within—this meant that he still had a chance to explore it. Only on m v|le|mp|yr
With 15 hours left until the return, and just over eleven hours before the Purple River Translocation Device completed its buffering, this meant that he would have about three hours to explore the Second-Rank Floating Land.
Such a prospect, naturally, left him far from calm.
A Second-Rank Starry Sea Floating Land\'s importance wasn\'t due to its vast expanse, but in its stable production of First Rank Floating Land Origin. Moreover, there was a chance to find Second-Rank Floating Land Origin there, which, for Song Chi, who was in dire need of it, was the greatest temptation.
