Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station

Chapter 812 - 240: Invader_2

Its blade is blunt.

The blade of the Single-Molecule Sword is purely single-molecule, and after possessing terrifying cutting ability, it also means the blade is incredibly fragile.

Now Chen Ming knows what the nanorobots in the hilt are used for.

They are used for the maintenance of the blade, ensuring the single-molecule structure of the blade is not damaged.

It can only be said that another civilization truly employed some unexpected things in unexpected places in its design.

Chen Ming bent down, pulled the sword out from the ground, and raised it to the previous position to release it again.

This time, as the Single-Molecule Sword descended, Chen Ming continuously applied Maintenance Spiritual Energy to the sword.

This time the sword successfully embedded itself completely into the ground, leaving only the hilt exposed.

Seeing this scene, Bai Quan spoke: "So what is your conclusion? Is it worth it?"

"It’s alright."

"For others, it’s definitely worth this price, but for me, it’s somewhat of a loss."

After all, Chen Ming can substitute single molecules and nanorobots himself; the only thing of value to him in this weapon is the fusion of the Spiritual Stone and Spiritual Weapon.

Moreover, these nanorobots give Chen Ming the feeling of putting a circuit board on an arrowhead.

Though from the perspective of that civilization’s technology, the existence of such things surely has a reason, which he can also comprehend.

For example, any Psychic with strong advancement and mobility capabilities holding this Single-Molecule Sword would definitely find its strength to be substantial.

But if one does not need close combat or can ensure not being approached, then this thing is hard to say.

Chen Ming generally wouldn’t risk himself.

Once he gets a substitute body, the chance of someone getting close to him should also be gone.

So, while Chen Ming indeed finds this fusion of the Spiritual Stone and Spiritual Weapon nice, if it causes a loss it’s still not worth it.

Just casually use a common Single-Molecule Sword.

Chen Ming moved past the Spiritual Single-Molecule Sword, looking at other items.

Soon, two unique weapons caught his eye.

The Mind Shock Gun and the Mind Disruption Gun.

Both are the size of a rifle, appearing in black and green, and their shape is simple enough to barely resemble a gun.

Their effect is also straightforward and violent, directly releasing Mind Pulses.

One pulse causes a mental shock, knocking people out, while the other interferes with the target’s consciousness.

It leads to the target’s brain confusion, indiscriminately attacking others around them, similar to the Mind Pulse Generator thrown around by the Mechanical Race in the past.

However, the manual states these are crowd control weapons and non-lethal, which seems to be slightly kinder than those used by the Mechanical Race.

But the introduction also mentions that this thing might cause brain damage due to Mind Shock, making it hard not to doubt whose riot is being quelled.

In conclusion, Chen Ming has previously obtained the Mind Pulse-emitting devices, so he doesn’t need them now, and after a quick glance, he continued looking at other things.

Chen Ming found that many items on this website indeed look good.

But either he doesn’t need them, or he already has substitutes.

So, in the end, Chen Ming merely marked a few potentially useful things and then turned to the materials section.

Materials are much more useful to him than other things; at least he can freely manufacture them into the items he needs.

And the value of various spiritual materials ranges from a few to several hundred to several thousand Contribution Points.

The most expensive ones are generally the special-grade materials with spiritual energy properties.

For instance, materials like the spiritual crystal gold used to manufacture the Spiritual Single-Molecule Sword he just saw, even though crystal gold is only mid to low tier among special materials, its value is around twelve hundred Contribution Points per kilogram.

The price varies according to the properties of spiritual energy.

The more positive the emotions, the higher the value; the more extreme, the higher the value as well.

Among them, the highest value is for a crystal gold material with the property of "Euphoria," priced at even three thousand Contribution Points.

It’s no wonder that Single-Molecule Sword is so expensive; its material accounts for a large part.

Then it’s even less worth it for Chen Ming to buy this thing.

Having reinforced his thoughts, Chen Ming continued looking down.

Apart from these naturally mined materials, there are others obtained from Spiritual Creatures as well.

Including skin, flesh, bones, blood, all kinds of things, since the spiritual energy of a Spiritual Creature exists in itself, the whole creature is valuable.

But Chen Ming suddenly realized that he hasn’t really seen many Spiritual Creatures until now, let alone strong ones.

He’s seen strong creatures, though—the Insect Queen counts, the Aurora Wind Spirit counts, and that Phase Giant Beast from before probably counts too, but indeed not many Spiritual Creatures.

If he comes across a few, he’s sure to try capturing them.

As Chen Ming looked at the list of biological materials, various strange thoughts kept flashing in his mind.

And one of these strange thoughts suddenly lingered in his mind.

Do the materials produced by Yan Xiong count as materials from Spiritual Creatures or other extractable materials?

No, what he should be concerned about is not the nature of spiritual materials, but the uses of these spiritual materials.

Chen Ming suddenly looked up at Bai Quan and said, "Let me ask you something, where do the items listed for exchange on these websites come from?"

"Many of these materials are from war surplus, and some are actively sold by Psychics and then distributed on here."
