"Dragon Crystal?!"
Chen Fei imdiately frowned.
The Dog System's frequent resurrections have always been truly terrifying, every question a life-or-death situation. Even though he has battled his way through to university, he still breaks out in a cold sweat at the thought, but this ti he wasn't startled.
Emmmm...
Based on past experiences, this feels very off. Could it be that...
Is it chocolate-flavored or durian-flavored? You say swallow and just swallow, heck no!!!
Definitely not falling for that trick!
Chen Fei, of course, is well aware of what a Dragon Crystal is. It's common social knowledge.
When a Giant Dragon falls, a Dragon Crystal will be preserved only if it did not deliberately break down its Heart Core before dying. Not every Giant Dragon will choose to retain its Heart Core Dragon Crystal.
Whether on Cangqiong Star or Erald Star, Dragon Crystals are vastly superior to Magical Beast Crystals in value, practically priceless, never appearing on the trade quota lists of the two civilized planets.
Almost every Dragon Crystal is owned by Sky Dragon City on Cangqiong Star, belonging to the Dragon Clan as a whole. Outsiders, or other Intelligent Species, have no chance or channels to obtain them.
Because they can be the main material for crafting top-grade Alchemical Artifacts, the Dragon Crystals that the tallic Dragons are willing to keep are even rarer, due to their more violent nature (Sky Dragon City's estimated reserves have not exceeded double digits).
How could Erald Star possibly have a Dragon Crystal?
Shouldn't have it, right?
No!
It should have it!
Sothing suddenly occurred to Chen Fei, and he imdiately guessed who this Dragon Crystal originally belonged to.
An adult male tallic Dragon, Osmium Osiris, carried a Tsar Plus and "greeted" or rather smacked the "Sagali" civilization of the Extraterrestrial Races.
For the tallic Dragons who have always been reckless, a one-way mission is indeed as casual as saying hello — indifferent to life or death, if disrespected, they retaliate.
"Adam, bring back this Dragon Crystal."
Without hesitation, Chen Fei issued the command.
This Dragon Crystal, which drifted away from Sky Dragon City, wasn't valued by the Parasitic Species.
Even if it couldn't be retrieved imdiately, he didn't plan to let Osmium Osiris's Dragon Crystal be exposed to the nuclear-radiated scorched earth since its value might prove useful.
Adam: Dragon Crystal recovery mission established, approximately 74,568 kiloters from Base 1, estimated recovery in 150 hours, countdown started.
The "voyeur" Dog System didn't make a sound this ti, and Chen Fei speculated that the Dog System simply wanted him to acquire the Dragon Crystal. Now that the goal is achieved, it returned to silence, maybe in a bystander mode.
150 hours, more than 6 days, he can wait.
He turned his head and looked at the S-Class Superpower User Heseman Brown, who was playing video gas, and said, "Sorry, Mr. Brown, a mont, please!"
"Uh? What's up?"
Heseman Brown hurriedly paused the ga before looking up at Chen Fei.
Although he maintained online contact with Erald Star, Chen Fei couldn't physically reach there, so he had to ask for help.
"In seven days, I might need a little personal favor from you."
As for the Blue Star Global United Defense Committee's real-ti surveillance, and Miyoshi Xuesen's close watch, he had corresponding counterasures.
"Of course, as long as I can help!"
After getting along for so ti, Heseman Brown grew familiar with this young man Chen Fei, and so jokes could be made. Since they were partners, a small favor was naturally not refused.
"Deal."
A vacancy in the Master of Pit Digging Hall awaits.
Mr. Brown, what a good person!
Ever since the crisis of being silenced was resolved, Monk has started brewing tea again, using classical tea powder, with added sugar, salt, onions, ginger, and garlic. He even threw in a few black peppercorns, leaving Chen Xiao'er stunned—what kind of dark flavor is this? Better to admire from afar.
In fact, before stir-fried green tea beca popular, everyone actually drank it like this... Tea was often a dicine, not a proper beverage, might as well add so goji berries.
Chen Fei really wanted to ask, has everyone been drinking tea wrong for five thousand years?
It's recorded in Shennong's Materia dica: "Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs, encountering seventy-two poisons daily, and found solace in cha (tea)."
It's not tea but cha, with an extra horizontal stroke, you fools!
Cha, reeds bloom, usually seen by the water's edge, can stop diarrhea, detoxify, and stop bleeding. Behaving like the Shennong, eating things wildly in the wild, the most common issues are diarrhea, followed by food poisoning, so the right redy is indeed reeds (cha).
What kind of nonsense is tea?
The Monk is probably too far gone, beyond saving.
Since Miyoshi Xuesen dabbled in retro tea ceremonies, Chen Fei decisively kept his distance, vowing never to sip it again, choosing instead to use an automatic coffee machine with Heseman Brown or brew a large batch of Mate until heaven and earth are out of sight.
Such heresy must be eradicated!
Base 1 on Erald Star began to include the construction of a directional neutron release device in its plans.
The radiation dose in the atmospheric environnt gradually increased, making it increasingly unsuitable for normal life forms, although it won't affect chanical bodies much. However, considering Chen Fei will eventually co, maybe even with people, preparations need to be made in advance.
Neutron radiation will hit radioactive particles, causing energy dispersal, and forcing the accelerated decay of omnipresent radiation pollution. Once decay is complete, it will transform into harmless lead and other heavy tals, equivalent to eliminating the aftereffects of nuclear pollution.

Absorbed in fiddling with a bunch of exquisite small tea cans in front of him, Miyoshi Xuesen didn't notice Chen Fei's ulterior motives at all.
Their conversation was as ordinary as ever, borrowing his S-Class Psi Skill for a personal favor—he's done it before. He previously moved an entire airship to the Northern Weapons Industry Group's trial flight field, tinkering with the so-called "Crystal Jet" developnt.
Without even finding a Sky Knight, creating a standalone Crystal Jet is just a big toy, isn't it?
Luckily these young folks are full of energy, having both the leisure and conditions to participate, but neither Miyoshi Xuesen nor the Blue Star Global United Defense Committee took it too seriously.
Even if they found a Sky Knight, would the sovereignties of Blue Star Civilization really lack a Crystal Jet?
No matter how poor or weak a sovereignty, even if they have to sell everything, live frugally, and tighten their belts, citizens would unite to scrape together the huge sum required to order a Crystal Jet, as air superiority is strategically more significant than land and sea.
But in reality, while others starve themselves, those hoarding excess live in abundance. Lack is real, and abundance too is real.
The first sovereignty in the world truly doesn't lack Sky Knights or Crystal Jets. Thus, the Northern Weapons Industry Group was curious to see how far these young engineers could go, leaving an eye open and one closed, with no one stopping them on the grounds of dereliction.
Chen Fei redirected most of his focus to the abnormal region of the Ordovician Star, which they had just occupied, formulating exploration and resource acquisition plans.
Prior illegal mining by adventurers created significant destruction and waste, so precise preliminary exploration and efficient, rational extraction are needed.
Even though the Parasitic Species caused considerable trouble for Blue Star Civilization with these three malicious abnormal regions, if used correctly, they might not be at a disadvantage.
Greed not only leads to destruction but also serves as a catalyst for progress.
If the Parasitic Species understood Blue Star Civilization's history, they'd realize every large-scale war has been a significant driving force for rapid developnt.
