565: Chapter 463 Exploration_2 565: Chapter 463 Exploration_2 Su Mo piloted the Black Steel Mecha, looking around helplessly.
Over the past three days, apart from finding a small amount of trash, he hadn’t found anything valuable at all.
It seemed that treasure hunting was harder than he had imagined.
Su Mo had originally wanted to gather more energy items to fuel the “Fake Owner・Swallower” and make a splash, and then ask about Mai Han’s situation again.
Now, looking at the trash he had gathered, he was too embarrassed to even call the Light Computer to ‘eat.’
If it misunderstood and thought he was really treating it like a garbage recycling station, that would be trouble.
As for those Type I organisms, Su Mo did not dare to let it absorb them.
He felt that doing so was no different from feeding it dung.
Just then, a new prompt popped up on the console screen.
“Operation Rules Change: Exploration areas are now unlocked.
Any team can apply to proceed deeper into the operation areas, after signing a Risk Acknowledgement Letter!”
“Note 1: Any teams and personnel engaged in deep operation will have their loot points calculated at double the rate.”
“Note 2: If uncontrollable factors occur, and Black Brilliance is in danger, the operation may be temporarily suspended, and support may be unavailable.”
Su Mo was secretly shocked by this notice; Black Brilliance had really loosened its restrictions.
Just then, Kolev’s voice came over the communication channel, very seriously, “Everyone listen, you must have seen the latest change in operational rules issued above.
I’m not stopping you from venturing deeper, but I hope you think it through.”
In the communication channel, everyone fell silent.
In fact, Kolev’s words also carried a hidden warning: the risk was extremely high!
After a long while, Zhao Bo and others finally responded in the communication channel, “Okay, Captain, we will consider it carefully.”
After pondering, Su Mo finally made a series of movements to apply for deep operation.
Although going deeper was risky, at least it wasn’t a direct charge into a monster’s lair, and the risk was still manageable.
The outer area was like a bone gnawed clean by a dog, truly not a sliver of meat left to pick.
Soon, a Risk Acknowledgement Letter popped up.
Su Mo signed his name without hesitation and chose to submit!
Suddenly, a prompt box popped up.
“Congratulations, Lieutenant Su Mo.
Your application has been approved.
Su Mo no longer hesitated.
He pushed the joystick, piloting the Black Steel alone deep into the unknown.
Honestly, at that moment, Su Mo didn’t know why, but he felt not a trace of fear or dread, but rather a surge of excitement.
Su Mo had piloted the Black Steel to a considerable depth now, the space junk floating around was even more abundant than in the outer areas, and debris was close to a qualitative leap, both in size and quality.
He even spotted the wreckage of a Medium Battlecruiser, snapped clean in half.
Swallowing hard, Su Mo gazed at it as though he had seen a huge cake.
However, Su Mo reined in his greed and remained alert while eyeing the surrounding wreckages.
It didn’t take him long to sense something off—not to mention whether any monsters were concealed inside the battleship.
Behind those large debris pieces floating nearby, he noticed several pairs of eyes watching him. Read complete version only at N0v3l.Fiɾe.net
But the monsters lurking here seemed somewhat different from regular ones, each appeared to have its own hunting territory, and they wouldn’t emerge unless he approached.
Additionally, the abundance of mechanical debris and pollution here, along with the monsters’ skill at hiding, seemed to interfere with scanning devices, making them extremely ineffective.
After some thought, Su Mo decided these monsters did not pose a significant threat to him.
But if he were to explore inside the ship and had to escape any monster encounters, these lurking beasts could fatally intercept him.
Thus, Su Mo controlled the Black Steel Mecha, lifting the Alloy Spear in its hand, then silently flew towards the wreck where a monster was hiding.
Inside the Black Brilliance Command Room, the operator was reporting.
“Report: Currently, over 122 official combatants have applied for deep exploration.
According to the positioning, they have now penetrated the third layer area.”
To better oversee the Chaotic Burial Starfield, Li Ruiqi boldly divided the entire starfield into seven layers.
The seventh layer was the central area, rumored to have been a meat grinder battleground, where numerous warships and monsters fell.
It was said that due to the influence of negative energy, even more terrifying monsters were born from the dead wreckage, and no one who entered there ever came out alive.
Li Ruiqi sat in his chair, tapping his armrest while listening to the report and then asked,
“What about the non-official personnel?”
“There are four thousand three hundred twenty non-official personnel who have gone deep.”
The operator paused for a moment as he looked at the data, then continued reporting.
“It really validates the saying, ‘humans die for wealth, birds die for food.'”
Li Ruiqi said with a hint of sarcasm.
Standing nearby, Putmi coughed and hastily made a conciliatory comment to Li Ruiqi, “Don’t worry about those minor details; amateurs can’t be compared to professionals.”
“You are right, but the scenario changes when amateurs operate under the guidance of professionals.”
Li Ruiqi turned to glance at Putmi.
Putmi suddenly felt a bit uneasy and cursed internally, “These idiots, no matter how rushed, shouldn’t be so graceless.”
