Star Survival: The Rise of the Fourth Scourge

"Do you see it? It seems that there is a bright light ahead..."

"Bright light? Blue... Am I dazzled?"

"That's not the color of a searchlight, and a searchlight can't illuminate such a far place..."

As they walked, there was a burst of whispering in front of them.

This made Pine frown slightly, and he scolded: "Report if there is any problem, it's not decent to whisper."

The scolding from Pine stopped the whispering in front of them.

"Yes, report to the captain, there is an unknown light ahead..."

Unknown light?

The report from the soldier made Li Meng look forward quickly.

At the end of the metal passage ahead, a blue fluorescence emerged in the darkness.

This discovery made Li Meng nervous.

There is a light source, which means...

Without hesitation, Li Meng hurriedly ordered: "Everyone keep silent and move forward lightly..."

Since we are here, no matter what it is, we must find out.

The order from the Regent made the soldiers silent and move forward lightly.

Closer, closer...

After walking about fifty meters, Li Meng finally saw the light source.

It was a metal door.

A huge hole was melted in the door.

The blue fluorescence was emitted from the hole.

Li Meng walked forward quickly and came to the front of the team.

Li Meng stretched out his right hand and made a silent gesture to the soldiers behind him.

The soldiers' footsteps became lighter...

Continuing forward, Li Meng quietly came to the front of the door.

With a hint of expectation and curiosity in his heart, Li Meng looked into the space inside the hole.

The blue fluorescence was reflected on Li Meng's body, making the front of Li Meng dyed blue.

At this sight, Li Meng was stunned, with a look of novelty on his face.

"What is that?"

There was also a metal passage behind the door.

But compared to the emptiness outside, the metal passage inside had something growing on it.

It looked a bit like mushrooms, living mushrooms, similar to spore organisms.

The blue fluorescence was emitted from their fat bodies.

This made them look like light bulbs in the dark.

There were a lot of them, covering the ground and walls, densely packed.

Some are big, some are small, and their shapes are also various.

Some grow on the ground, some grow on the wall.

Some are only the size of a palm, and some are comparable to a small car.

Some are like mushrooms, and some are like flowers...

Except for the blue light source in the body, there is nothing in common in other places, it is a mess.

[Task completion progress: 50%]

[Activate personal task "Resurrection of Blue Demon", eliminate the Blue Demon in the S-01888 star system, complete the task reward: +1 million trade coins, mission failure: -100,000 trade coins, task time limit: 10 years]

[Activate the random feature of "Child of the Star", complete the task reward: +500 million trade coins, mission failure: -2 billion trade coins]

Blue Demon?

The prompt subtitle from "Zero" made Li Meng frown slightly.

500 times reward, 2,000 times penalty, it's really random...

The exploration task is not completed, because there is another abnormal place to explore.

But the new task gave Li Meng a very bad premonition.

That's a reward of one million trade coins.

The higher the reward, the greater the difficulty.

Also, what exactly is the Blue Devil?

Could it be the spore creatures inside?

But...

Are those little things really threatening?

"Pine, what do you think those things are?"

Pine was right next to Li Meng, and like Li Meng, he was observing the metal channel on the other side.

Pine naturally saw those little blue things.

"Regent, there are all kinds of strange alien creatures in the universe, nothing strange, but it is indeed surprising that they can survive in such a harsh environment. I'm afraid they are not good things, and we must be careful."

At this point, Pine looked at the servo skull floating on the Regent.

"Regent, can you let 001 go and explore? 001 has a scanning array on him, and maybe we can get some useful things from them."

Let 001 go inside and explore?

With a look of hesitation on his face, Li Meng thought quickly in his mind.

After hesitating again and again, Li Meng gave up.

Facing unknown creatures, it is better to be careful.

His current strength is limited, with only 5,000 Star Army soldiers, and no decent heavy weapons.

If they are woken up, it will be a bit bad if they are defeated.

The mission time limit is ten years, there is no need to rush.

Thinking of this, Li Meng whispered: "Let's go, let's leave here, don't alarm them."

Pine knew that the Regent had made a choice.

This is undoubtedly a wise decision.

The Far Journey has just arrived, and its military strength is not enough to fight an interstellar war.

They may be weak or strong, but it doesn't matter.

What matters is its own strength.

Only when its own strength becomes strong can it eliminate all potential threats.

Come and go in a hurry.

Without alarming the little things inside, Li Meng left quietly with the soldiers.

Compared with the caution when coming, the speed of going back is much faster.

After a while, Li Meng saw the sunlight at the entrance of the cave in the darkness ahead.

Walking out of the cave with big strides, Li Meng walked straight to the direction of the No. 1 boat.

"Pine, go to boat No. 2 and check out the North and South Poles. If you find anything, report it to me immediately."

"yes!"

"Everyone returns to the transport boat, it's time to go home..."

Instead of following Li Meng, Pine turned around and ran in the direction of Boat No. 2.

A few minutes later, the roar of the engine roared at the bottom of the valley again.

In the rolling sand, two transport boats took off one after another, soaring into the sky...

A few minutes later...

When the sky is no longer the sky, but a dark starry sky, the transport ship successfully enters the orbit of the planet.

In the planet's low Earth orbit, the team split into two.

One flew towards the direction of the Expedition, while the other continued its mission and flew towards the North Pole.

From leaving the Expedition to coming back, it took less than five hours.

Only half of the task is completed, as for the other half...

Li Meng was no longer interested in traveling long distances and spending more than ten days to reach the No. 2 star.

Back to the maintenance room again...

"call……"

After taking off the force feedback power armor, Li Meng took a deep breath.

"Prince Regent, is this trip to Star No. 1 going well?"

Li Meng took the clothes from Donald's robotic arm and put them on.

While dressing, Li Meng said: "It went well, except that we encountered a strange alien creature."

Strange alien creatures?

"There should be inanimate objects on Planet No. 1. I wonder what kind of aliens they are?"

Buttoning the buttons in front of him, Li Meng said to 001: "001, show him the video information."

001 responded and moved forward, blue light emitted from his electronic eyes.

In front of Donald, a holographic screen suddenly appeared.

What is shown in the picture is the scene Li Meng saw in the pyramid.
