Seeing Zhang Xiao’s words, a look of surprise flashed in Su Yu’s eyes.
The trait of Sea Blue Source Crystal is to enhance the conduction of energy. The stock in the Sanctuary was already scarce, and with Su Yu’s few uses, it was long depleted.
"This kind of ore, Sea Blue Source Crystal, can be used to further repair the Electron Furnace left by the former manager, thereby further improving the quality of the Thousand-Handed Prosthetic." Su Yu’s current Thousand-Handed Prosthetic is not a finished product because the Electron Furnace’s repair is insufficient, and the material of the prosthetic itself is not exceptional.
It can only be regarded as an excellent-level semi-finished product.
Not only that, the Electric Sniper Rifle in Su Yu’s hand is also an excellent-level semi-finished creation with too many side effects.
"Previously, it couldn’t be repaired because the quantity of Sea Blue Source Crystal was so low that it had to be used sparingly, whether for the Thousand-Handed Prosthetic or repairing the Electric Sniper Rifle."
"And now, if that mine is really as Zhang Xiao’s exploration results suggest, with both Tungsten Blood Steel and Sea Blue Source Crystal, and in significant amounts, then this mine must be occupied by me."
The more Su Yu thought about it, the more excited he became. He immediately sent a message through his personal terminal.
He called for the three Hunting Team Leaders, as well as Sanctuary’s senior members like Bai Hong and Yang Lie, to proceed to the council hall.
Before long, Su Yu arrived at the council hall.
By then, the senior members of the Sanctuary were already present.
Upon seeing Su Yu’s arrival, everyone greeted in unison: "Lord Administrator."
Su Yu just nodded slightly in response.
Then, he took the central seat in the council hall.
Looking at the crowd, he began, "Lao Mo, let’s have your Mechanical Repair Department start first."
"Yes, Lord Administrator." Lao Mo nodded and began reporting on the Mechanical Repair Department’s situation.
"Based on the technology granted by the Administrator and the blueprints bestowed upon us, the Mechanics in the Mechanical Repair Department have already mastered the manufacturing of personal terminals. Recently, the produced personal terminals have been delivered to members of the three major Hunting Teams for use."
"Also, regarding the manufacturing of Basic Prosthetics, we have mastered a part of it. Although it’s still early to manufacture Basic Prosthetics, most Mechanics can already maintain Basic Prosthetics independently."
As he spoke, Lao Mo pointed to Zhang Xiao, saying, "The prosthetics of the members of the third Hunting Team led by Captain Zhang Xiao were maintained by the Mechanical Repair Department after their return this time."
After speaking, Lao Mo sat down.
At this time, Zhang Xiao stood up.
"Lord Administrator, I’ve explored all resource points within a twenty-mile radius of the Sanctuary based on the map locations you provided."
"The resource point with a four-star Radiation Beasts group originally didn’t produce Sea Blue Source Crystal, only Tungsten Blood Steel. Previously, the Radiation Beast living there was just a four-star level Steel Giant Scorpion, not the current Crystal Giant Scorpion Radiation Beasts group."
Zhang Xiao’s words surprised Su Yu as well.
Although, through the personal terminal, Su Yu had grasped the general situation of this exploration.
But Zhang Xiao hadn’t described the details through the personal terminal.
Only now, hearing Zhang Xiao’s description, did Su Yu understand, thinking: "No wonder the Sanctuary’s map didn’t record this as a resource point producing Sea Blue Source Crystal."
Previously, this resource point was marked only five kilometers away from the Sanctuary on the map, but it only produced Tungsten Blood Steel, with no Sea Blue Source Crystal.
Moreover, it was inhabited by only a Steel Giant Scorpion that fed on Metal Ore, not the current Crystal Giant Scorpion Radiation group.
In the common knowledge of Su Yu and the people of the Sanctuary, Tungsten Blood Steel and Sea Blue Source Crystal were not produced in the same mine; Sea Blue Source Crystal is relatively fragile, only having excellent energy conductivity.
While Tungsten Blood Steel is hard in texture, the birth environment of the two minerals is entirely different, fundamentally not producible in the same mine.
"There must be some reason causing a change in that resource point, perhaps due to the Crystal Giant Scorpion Radiation group." Su Yu pondered silently, maintaining a calm face.
Then Zhang Xiao continued, "According to my exploration this time, the Crystal Giant Scorpions residing there appear to feed on Sea Blue Source Crystal, forming a symbiotic relationship to some extent, and this group of Crystal Giant Scorpions are tough to deal with."
Zhang Xiao paused, with a trace of fear in his eyes, saying, "I tried to confront a Crystal Giant Scorpion that was relatively far from the group, only to find that the Crystal Giant Scorpion has a completely transparent shell, and through prolonged consumption of Sea Blue Source Crystal, gained special abilities to refract light through its shell, achieving complete invisibility."
"Moreover, the Crystal Giant Scorpion Clan has as many as a dozen scorpions, four of which have reached a four-star level, and the strength of one of them made me feel fearful; it’s at least a four-star high-grade Radiation Beast, and that’s just the number observed on the surface. There will be more Crystal Giant Scorpions in the mine."
"Lord Administrator, with the current strength of the Sanctuary, dealing with this group of Radiation Beasts may result in significant casualties."
"However, if the Lord Administrator intends to clear the Crystal Giant Scorpions, I will do my utmost to serve."
Zhang Xiao’s meaning was clear, entirely advising Su Yu not to attack the Crystal Giant Scorpions for the time being. However, it was just advice; with Zhang Xiao’s loyalty, if Su Yu decided to proceed, he would obey.
