Chapter 138: The smelting function is turned on, the capabilities of the Science and Technology Institute!

Wang Kai was staring blankly at the huge crater that collapsed in front of him, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Why did this mountain range collapse?

It doesn't matter if it collapses, the key is that the mineral vein is still gone.

"Impossible, there must be mineral veins here, they should just be buried underground."

Wang Kai comforted himself in his heart. He could imagine what kind of results he would face if there were really no mineral veins here.

Not to mention Su Jiu, the Gus Group alone would not let him go. By then, let alone living in the Free Country, whether he could survive here was a question.

At the same time, the army of the Free State also returned after inspecting a circle around the mountains, and brought back 39 corpses and various firearms and weapons.

"Mr. Firman, according to our investigation, these people are mercenaries from the Cold Star Mercenary Group. As for why they appear here, we still don't know yet."

The leading officer reported to Firman.

Firman's face was gloomy. For safety reasons, they specially dispatched an army to guard here, but they were ambushed by these mercenaries. If this matter spread, it would definitely become a joke.

Fortunately, they had no losses this time, especially Su Jiu and others. Otherwise, Heavenly Court would definitely not let it go.

Even so, today's matter may not be that simple, and Heaven will definitely find trouble for them.

"Immediately investigate the Hanxing Mercenary Group and find their lair for me. I will report this matter to the boss immediately."

Firman said coldly.

He also knew the name of the Hanxing mercenary group, but this mercenary group had always kept a low profile and mostly wandered around war zones. Now it actually appeared in the Free Country and almost killed them. This matter must not be ignored.

At this time, the officer was also a little uneasy. Although he had been sent to garrison here before, he had never taken it to heart.

After all, although the public security in the Free Country is not good, with their troops stationed there, I believe no one would dare to seek death like this.

But he didn't expect that someone really wanted to die, and almost led to the death of the boss's secretary and an important guest in heaven. He also felt that this was a shame, and even if Firman didn't tell him, he wouldn't let it go.

"By the way, how did these people die?"

Firman asked, looking at the corpse not far away.

"They were all shot between the eyebrows, killed with one shot, and killed by snipers. We don't know exactly who did it."

The officer shook his head and said.

The Hanxing mercenary group was all good players, but it was unbelievable to him that they could be sniped so easily.

And he also found some warheads, but found that they were different from those he had seen before. They seemed to be special bullets.

Firman nodded without saying anything. At this time, he was already very sure that the sniper hiding in the dark was the two people beside Su Jiu.

Calculating the time carefully, there was a gunfight just after the two people disappeared. After the gunfire disappeared, the two people appeared again, which was really weird.

However, although he was certain in his heart, there was no evidence. He had already sent people to search the mountains and forests, but no firearms hidden by the other party were found at all.

And this also surprised him. Su Jiu and the others had just arrived, and they found someone ambushing them. The people in Heaven should not be underestimated.

After discussing with the officer for a while, the officer went down to deal with the matter here. Firman also reported the matter here to the boss of the Free State.

When the boss of the Free State learned that Su Jiu and others had been ambushed, he was shocked. Fortunately, no one was injured, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Immediately investigate the Hanxing Mercenary Group. This matter must be explained to Heaven."

The boss of the Free Country immediately ordered.

Now the Heavenly Court doesn't know what's happening here. They must take advantage of this time to find the Hanxing Mercenary Group and destroy it, otherwise it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction in the Heavenly Court.

The once extremely proud boss of the Free Country was now considering the wrath of heaven. This could be said to be a huge change, and it was all because of Research Institute No. 9.

At the same time, he also learned from Firman that Su Jiu had an extremely powerful way to save his life, especially when he heard that he could even withstand three rockets, which shocked the boss of the Free Nation.

If all the troops in Heaven were equipped with such weapons, then whoever dared to fight against Heaven would be completely invincible.

"Build a good relationship with Su Jiu and take the opportunity to explore this weapon."

The boss of the Free Country said that he naturally wanted to own such a powerful weapon. It was impossible to get it from Heaven, but Su Jiu still had a chance. After all, the other party was a businessman. As long as he gave enough money, he would have it. Possibility of trading.

After some arrangements, a sergeant also came to Firman and reported something.News, the ore mining team sent by the Gus Group is here.

"The matter here has almost been resolved. Let's continue the cooperation between Su Group and Gus Group."

Thinking about it, Firman asked someone to bring the team over.

Then the team also began to operate machinery, under the personal command of Wang Kai, and began to dig the mine.

At this time, Wang Kai was already panicking and directed these people to dig into the collapsed pit.

He had quietly observed it just now, and he was basically certain that the copper veins discovered before were indeed missing.

This made him feel incredible. He was sure that there really was a copper vein here, but why had it disappeared?

Could it be that his survey was really wrong, but the Gus Group also sent people to survey later, and his survey was obviously not wrong.

Amidst the anxiety, the workers had already started to dig into a place, and everyone began to wait.

Su Jiu took Xiaowu and Xiaoliu to a hillside and sat down, watching these people busy.

"How's the situation at home?"

Su Jiu asked in a low voice.

"Don't worry, boss. The three people who were let go have been picked up by their accomplices. They have all been shot. There is a positioning and tracking system in these bullets. At this time, the family is still tracking. I believe their lair will be found soon." ."

Xiao Liu said.

They didn't bring many of these bullets with tracking systems installed this time (bjca), only ten, but they were enough for now.

"Well, let my family follow me first. Since you want to kidnap me, you really don't take us seriously."

Su Jiu sneered, once she knew the other party's lair, she would definitely destroy them all.

After chatting for a while, Su Jiu also opened the system. Since the people of Gus Group would be busy for a while, he took this opportunity to upgrade the system.

"System, increase the regeneration level."

Su Jiu secretly communicated with the system and said.

[The system prompts that the host has successfully consumed 500 million energy points, the regeneration level has successfully reached level 13, the mutation function has successfully reached level 9, and the devouring ore vein function has successfully reached level 4. 】

[The system prompts that the host has successfully consumed one billion energy points, the regeneration level has successfully reached level 14, the mutation function has successfully reached level 10, and the devouring ore vein function has successfully reached level 5. 】

[Report to the host, the detected mutation function successfully reaches level 10, and the host gains the authority to control the direction of mutation. 】

[Report to the host, it is detected that the devouring ore vein function has successfully reached level 5, and the host has successfully turned on the 'smelting' function! 】

【Personal information interface】

[Host]: Su Jiu

[Energy Points]: 563.24 million

[Control range]: One billion cubic meters

[Regeneration Level]: Level 14 (the next upgrade requires 1.5 billion energy points, and the control range can be increased to 1.5 billion cubic meters after the upgrade)

[Mutation Function]: Level 10 (Active skill, can control the direction of mutation.)

[Swallowing Ore Veins]: Level 5 (Active skill, no energy points need to be consumed when using it.)

[Smelting function]: Level 1 (can directly smelt the entire mineral vein to obtain the purest minerals. After reaching level 5, the 'Technology Institute' function will be enabled.)

…

Now the mutation function and the devouring ore vein function have reached the full level, and there will not be any big changes if they are upgraded again.

"However, after the smelting function is improved, it can actually open new functions. System, what effects does this technology have?"

Su Jiu asked.

[Report to the host, after purchasing the black technology in the mall, the host only needs the science and technology institute to enter the relevant technology information, and then consume enough materials and energy, the science and technology institute will automatically produce it. 】

Hearing this, Su Jiu couldn't help but his eyes lit up, feeling that the system was truly activated at this time.

Before, the system only had a regeneration function. Without those black technologies, this function would have been enough to keep him food and clothing for several lifetimes.

But with the black technology in the mall, everything is different. Just a regeneration function is not enough.

Therefore, the mutation function and the phagocytosis function appeared later. Among these two functions, one can help Su Jiu obtain minerals that are not available on Blue Star, and the other can help Su Jiu quickly obtain energy points.

These are all basic functions of the system, all serving the black technology in the mall.

But all along, Su Jiu always felt that the system was still a little imperfect. There were already minerals and black technologies, but if he didn't establish a research institute, it would still be very difficult to develop these black technologies.

It wasn't until the smelting function was turned on at this time and she knew that there was a science and technology institute function behind it that Su Jiu realized that it was just that he was not at a high level before, so the system did not expand these functions.

Su Jiu also understood that the previous functions were mainly to increase his background. Perhaps when the functions of the Science and Technology Institute are turned on, the entire system will be completely perfect.

Nowadays, Research Institute No. 9 does have good results, but it can only develop some basic technologies.

It's just that these so-called basic technologies are at the top of the world in this era, or even beyond this era.

In the mall, there are many large and complex technologies that cannot be completed with the current strength of the No. 9 Research Institute.

But with this science and technology institute, it's different. He only needs to provide energy and materials, and the system will help him develop it. Although he doesn't know how long the research and development will take, it is definitely not comparable to the No. 9 Research Institute.

"Okay, once the function of the Science and Technology Institute is activated, the No. 9 Research Institute will develop some basic technologies. The Science and Technology Institute will mainly develop the truly top technologies."

Su Jiu secretly thought, the technology developed by science and technology is his real trump card.

Not long after, the mine was dug, and after hearing the results of the workers' exploration under the mine, Wang Kai and others also froze in place...….
