Chapter 171
This feeling of familiarity was very strange. Ying Chenlin was sure that he had never seen that supernatural crystal, but that supernatural crystal gave him the feeling that it was very similar to the supernatural crystal he got in Banute. Ying Chenlin lowered his eyes slightly and was about to take a closer look when Yuan's voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
"A-grade supernatural crystal." Yuan's voice was very steady. "It feels very similar to me."
Ying Chenlin didn't quite trust his own intuition, but since Yuan said so, he would be more inclined to believe Yuan.
A long time ago, he was very interested in the energy absorption of S-class mecha and S-class supernatural crystals. He also studied the compatibility of You Su's mecha Theo and supernatural crystals. He knew that S-class mecha equipped with supernatural crystal core weapons would have special reactions to supernatural crystals of the same origin as the weapons, and could even absorb the corresponding energy from the supernatural crystals as the core supply of the weapons through the same-origin absorption.
There were fewer fire-attribute energy crystals in the base, so he was unable to do much testing at the time.
But he used You Su's mental power to test it with Theo. Using S-level mental power to stimulate higher-level energy crystals will increase the empathy between the S-level mecha and the energy crystals... The energy crystal that can make the mecha Intelligent Yuan feel familiar, even if it is not from the same origin, that A-level fire-attribute energy crystal should not be simple.
Thinking of this, Ying Chenlin's eyes fell on the other supernatural crystals in the display case. Seeing the blond man named Norbert taking out a few supernatural crystals from the display case, he noticed the other party's mental power pouring out and was stunned: "S-level mentalist."
When the person with high mental power released his mental power, several mecha masters around him had already taken a few steps back.
High-level mental power will have a subtle effect on low-level mental power. You Su is also an S-level mental power user. Seeing this, he slightly released his mental power and then said, "The gambling stone field does not restrict buyers from using mental power, but this is probably useless. Mental power can only distinguish the level of the energy crystal."
From a certain gambler's perspective, most people think that the higher the level of the supernatural crystal, the better the supernatural power it will reveal.
For example, this man named Norbert, he has been buying S-level supernatural crystal embryos from the beginning to now.
You can use your mental power to test...
Ying Chenlin's eyes fell slightly on the price tags in the distance: A-level supernatural crystal 80,000 yuan/piece, A-level mutant supernatural crystal 120,000 yuan/piece, and S-level supernatural crystal 1.5 million yuan/piece.
"Do you know how much the Xingxiu appraisal of the supernatural crystal costs approximately?" Ying Chenlin asked.
"It ranges from 3 to 8 million. The higher the level of the supernatural crystal, the more expensive it is to identify." You Su heard Ying Chenlin ask, "Why, do you want to play?"
Ying Chenlin said: "I have three energy crystals that I want to identify."
It's a problem that the three energy crystals are left in hand but cannot be used. If they can be sent to the Xingxiu Association for identification, maybe it can alleviate KID's current pressure on weapons.
The identification cost of these S-level supernatural crystals is high, and the risk is also great. It is very likely that waste supernatural powers will be opened, or dead crystals with no supernatural powers will be opened. The S-level supernatural crystals of ordinary supernatural powers are only around 10 million, and the waste crystals can't even get back the appraisal fee...
Ying Chenlin thought about it and decided to walk forward to take a look.
You Su noticed that Ying Chenlin was walking forward, but he did not stop him. Instead, he stood there and watched.
Theo asked in confusion: "Chen Lin is interested in these?"
"Yeah." You Su's eyes fell on Ying Chenlin. He didn't think this money-grubber would do something he wasn't sure of. "Let's see."
There were quite a few people watching around, and seeing that the blond man had bought so many energy crystals in a row but still didn't get any good ones, everyone's interest had faded.
At this time, a young boy was seen going up. Several businessmen who originally wanted to leave stopped and their eyes fell on Ying Chenlin.
"Can I try it?" Ying Chenlin asked.
Upon seeing this, the owner of the gambling stone field smiled kindly and made way for him to the display cabinet.
Ying Chenlin said thank you, and when he walked to the display case, the entire display case opened completely in front of him, and all kinds of glowing supernatural crystals were placed in the display case. He did not look at the contamination value marked on the supernatural crystal, but focused on the quality and brilliance of the supernatural crystal.
The colors are varied, and the properties of these energy crystals cannot be seen clearly from the appearance alone.
All eyes were fixed on the young boy. His identity could not be seen from his attire and appearance until someone noticed the hand he held up the energy crystal. His knuckles were all black mechanical.
Norbert stopped searching for the energy crystal and looked at Ying Chenlin's hand. "Huh?"
Ying Chenlin released his mental power slightly, and the energy crystal floated in his palm, and soon fell on his mechanical hand with a thud.
The knowledgeable merchants around looked away slightly when they saw this. The mental power revealed was only A-level. How did he think of testing S-level supernatural crystals?
Ying Chenlin looked at the supernatural crystals very slowly. He picked up the supernatural crystal he had selected, put it down again, and picked up some more supernatural crystals.
Mental power can test the energy content of supernatural crystals. Ying Chenlin wants to pick some supernatural crystals with richer energy content. ^_^
People around were whispering.
"I'm still young, and I want to use my mental strength to test the energy level."
"Even if the energy is high, it may still produce waste crystals. Ordinary energy crystals can't even get back the appraisal fee."
The display cabinet in the gambling stone field thought that another mecha master had come for fun. When he saw him pick out several supernatural crystals from the display cabinet, the smile on his face did not change at all. He saw him choose several from the S-level supernatural crystals, and then turned to look at the A-level supernatural crystals. He even stood beside him and introduced them to Ying Chenlin enthusiastically.
Ying Chenlin used his mental power to test the energy content of the energy crystals. After picking out a few with rich energy content, he picked up two of them. Suddenly, he felt that the reactions of these two crystals were a bit special. Judging from the feedback from his mental power, the energy of these two crystals should be very rich. However, every time his mental power reached halfway, he always felt an inexplicable blockage.
He pinched the energy crystals, and finally put the two energy crystals aside as backup.
Seeing his choice, people around him frowned.
As they often hang out in the gambling stone field, they could naturally see that the color of the supernatural crystal was a bit mottled. It was very likely that it was contaminated by something else during the collection process. Even if this type of supernatural crystal was not a waste crystal, it was most likely to be a supernatural crystal with slightly inferior supernatural powers.
Theo looked on curiously, "What is Shen Lin doing? Yuan, do you know?"
Yuan simply replied: "He is looking for materials."
You Su watched the boy walking back and forth beside the display cabinet. Soon, other customers came to look at the supernatural crystals. The shopkeeper turned around to serve others, but the boy did not leave the display cabinet and was still selecting the supernatural crystals inside.
He was somewhat familiar with this scene. When he was in the KID maintenance room, Ying Chenlin had treated those pollutant materials with the same attitude and look. This shows that these special crystals in the gambling stone field are enough to arouse Shen Lin's interest.
At this moment, Ying Chenlin suddenly walked over to the A-level supernatural crystal shopkeeper next to him. This time he did not do any testing, but took out several supernatural crystals from the A-level supernatural crystal pile. Norbert, who had been observing from the side, frowned slightly when he saw him pick up the dim red energy crystal. He said, "This one is not good."
Norbert explained enthusiastically: "The light is too dim, the energy is not high, and I may not be able to use my special powers."
Ying Chenlin paused slightly, turned around and saw the blond man, his eyes fell on the mecha key dangling around his neck, "I think its color is very beautiful, thank you."
He placed this familiar supernatural crystal in the pile of supernatural crystals he had chosen earlier, and then selected a few A-level supernatural crystals with high energy reaction and placed them together with the original supernatural crystals.
Norbert didn't go far. Ying Chenlin saw him hesitating with two energy crystals in his hand and noticed that the energy color of one of them was quite beautiful.
"I'm hesitating which one to choose, sink, please help me choose one." Norbert noticed Ying Chenlin's gaze and smiled brightly as he spoke.
When Ying Chenlin heard the word sink, he noticed the blond man's gaze, "How did you know it was me?"
"I've seen KID's game, and I remember your hand. I'm very interested in your base." Norbert blinked, and raised his hand, with two energy crystals shining: "My name is Norbert."
Ying Chenlin looked at the one in his left hand and said, "This one is more beautiful."
Norbert chose the one Ying Chenlin mentioned. He caught a glimpse of the red rope around Ying Chenlin's neck and was about to say a few more words when he suddenly noticed someone walking over.
You Su walked closer to Ying Chenlin and asked, "Have you chosen?"
Ying Chen nodded: "I've chosen it."
The shopkeeper came to settle the bill. Ying Chenlin picked a total of 7 S-level supernatural crystals and 4 A-level supernatural crystals.
He glanced at the energy crystals and found that some of them were heavily contaminated. He said, "These are worth 10 million."
When You Su heard this, he was about to pay, but Ying Chenlin had already taken out his computer to transfer the money.
The shopkeeper received the money and asked, "Do you need any appraisal services?"
Ying Chenlin said: "Yes."
There is a passage behind the gambling stone field that leads directly to the Xingxiuhui appraisal agency. With the guidance of the shopkeeper, they quickly walked to another appraisal room in the passage. Huo Yan happened to come over at this time. When he heard that Ying Chenlin had bought the supernatural crystals to gamble on the stone, he also came over to see what was going on. "How did you buy supernatural crystals? It's easy to lose money on these things."
You Su said calmly: "The child has money to buy toys."
There are staff from the Xingxiu Society and corresponding staff from the gambling stone field in the appraisal room.
When Ying Chen came here, he found out that the gambling stone field had a cooperation with the appraisal room. Customers coming through the gambling stone field could choose on-site appraisal or confidential appraisal. The on-site appraisal would make the results public, and the price of the appraisal would be relatively cheap.
The appraisal room is very spacious. In addition to the front desk, there are many guests standing in the hall.
Ying Chenlin was familiar with several of these faces, having also seen them near the display cabinets in the gambling stone field.
When the front desk staff learned that Ying Chenlin was here for appraisal, they introduced in a soft voice: "Our A-level appraisal starts at 800,000, and the S-level supernatural crystal starts at 3 million. The price will fluctuate according to the degree of contamination and pollution value of the supernatural crystal. Which supernatural crystals do you want to appraise?"
Ying Chenlin did not choose to identify all of them, but picked out three from the S-level supernatural crystals, and also put the A-level fire supernatural crystal that he thought was strange together, "Just these four."
You Su paused for a moment when he saw this, "You won't identify the others?"
"No appraisal." Ying Chenlin put away the other energy crystals, "I didn't buy these for appraisal."
Some people nearby were curious about the results of the appraisal and started to speak:
"Little brother, you bought so many, but you only want to identify these few?"
"They have discounts for appraisals. There is no use for you to keep this kind of energy crystal."
Ying Chen Lin remained unmoved.
He didn't buy those other high-energy supernatural crystals for identification.
The appraiser quickly took away the energy crystal, and Ying Chenlin followed You Su and Huo Yan in the hall waiting for the results.
You Su said, "Don't you buy other supernatural crystals and not identify them? There won't be an organization like Xingxiu Club next time."
"If we don't appraise it, it will easily increase the cost." Ying Chenlin shook his head, "I bought those to use as repair materials when I take them back."
During this period, the KID base also harvested a lot of energy crystals. Ying Chenlin often dealt with the energy crystals. Also, because he had previously used You Su's mental power to test Theo, he discovered some subtle differences in the energy crystals.
S-class mechas can absorb the core of S-class energy crystals as energy supplements, which is helpful in repairing damaged weapons.
On the contrary, even if it is not an S-class mecha, as long as S-class mental power is used, S-class supernatural crystals can also repair weapon cores that are not completely consumed. This is the conclusion that Ying Chenlin came to after repeated tests. Some supernatural crystals are very suitable as repair materials for weapon core supernatural crystals.
In the past, when repairing weapon cores made of S-level energy crystals by people like Huo Yan and Lin Yao, they had to purchase expensive repair materials, which greatly increased the cost of repair.
Normally on the market, S-grade supernatural crystals are too luxurious to be used as repair materials. However, in this kind of gambling stone field, embryo supernatural crystals are very cheap, and even the worst supernatural crystals can be used as repair materials, which are much cheaper than the market price outside.
While waiting for the result, Ji Qingfeng and the other two who had been bargaining with others also came back. The Green Dandelion and the Siren's energy crystals were finally bought at a price of 7,800, which was directly cut down by 5 million by the two men.
Lu Xi whispered, "I told them that 5 million was enough, and then they argued with the boss."
Ying Chenlin thought Ji Qingfeng was very capable, but Ji Qingfeng was unhappy with the result.
Ji Qingfeng said: "I have never encountered Waterloo when bargaining, and this discount is less than 10%!"
While talking, Ji Qingfeng suddenly noticed the various people in the appraisal room, especially the blond man who had just walked in from a distance. He hesitated and said, "Isn't that Norbert!?"
Ying Chenlin was familiar with the blond man, "Do you know him?"
Ji Qingfeng said: "The mecha division of the Second Star Region PJT! The world's number one stealth mecha, you know PJT, right? The Second Group Battle Team of the Star Alliance, Norbert is their captain."
Ying Chenlin's eyes fell on the blond man who went for the appraisal, "Really?"
"There are many mecha masters here." Huo Yan looked around the appraisal room. He didn't see anyone familiar, but it was easy to tell the difference between a mecha master and an ordinary person. "There are quite a few people coming for appraisal."
Moreover, most of the mecha masters who can enter and exit this place have high status.
Upon hearing this, Ying Chenlin began to observe the mecha pilots around him. His knowledge of the mecha pilots was limited to data, and he seldom memorized faces. Instead of looking at faces, he was more familiar with the mecha pilots' mechas. Upon observation, he found that there were many mecha masters here, and he was particularly impressed by a female mecha master standing in the corner.
"The captain of the SHIELD team, Wu Qingshuang, is from the Aries Galaxy in the first star field." Huo Yan explained: "The tank mecha is more difficult to deal with than Zhao Lejie."
At this moment, several mecha masters came in from outside and went straight to the confidential identification area.
When they walked there, Wu Qingshuang and Norbert's eyes immediately turned to them. Ying Chenlin noticed this and just when he was about to take a closer look, those people had disappeared.
Not only that, many people in the appraisal room were also looking at them, as if the person who had just entered was of high status.
Lin Yao asked in a low voice: "Who just came in? Why is his B-grip so big?"
Ji Qingfeng squinted his eyes and looked over there: "I couldn't see the face clearly."
At this time, the businessman sitting behind them heard them talking. They had been listening to this group of mecha masters who looked like they came from the countryside. "You know Norbert, but you don't know them?"
Ji Qingfeng asked in a familiar manner: "Brother, we really don't know, can you tell me?"
"Who else could it be? The overlord of the Star Alliance, the base EM in the Silver Moon Galaxy of the fifth star field." The businessman continued, "First in the Star Alliance team battle."
The Mecha Base EM has won the team battle mecha star alliance championship for several consecutive years and is the fifth star field mecha base in the Silver Moon Galaxy.
After the businessman said this, KID and the others immediately reacted, but they didn't expect that so many mecha masters would gather in such a small appraisal room of Xingxiu. People from the SHIELD base, PJT base... even EM came.
"Even EM is here." Ji Qingfeng said, "I really didn't recognize him."
The businessman shook his head. When he heard that someone at the front desk had used a great power, he hurried over to see what was going on.
Lin Yao sat cross-legged and said, "Isn't it just the team battle champion? We also have an individual champion."
Ji Qingfeng: "If our Chen Lin was not underage when he became famous, he would have been famous in the Star Alliance by now."
Ying Chenlin paused for a moment and said, "I'm not famous."
Several people looked towards the direction of the virtual screen above and saw Norbert issuing a golden appraisal, which seemed to be a wood-attribute attack ability, attracting a lot of onlookers.
At this moment, a notification popped up on Ying Chenlin's computer to receive the identification results. "My results seem to be out."
"It's okay, Chen Lin. If we don't find any bargains, let's go somewhere else." Lin Yao said.
When Ying Chenlin went to the front desk to receive the appraisal results, several mecha masters in the venue looked in Ying Chenlin's direction, including Wu Qingshuang and others.
"The people you care about on that base are also gone."
Wu Qingshuang responded indifferently, her eyes fixed on Ying Chenlin.
Norbert at the front desk saw Ying Chenlin coming over and greeted him warmly, "Thank you for bringing me good luck."
The results of the on-site appraisal were made public. Several businessmen in the hall were not optimistic about Chen Lin, knowing that he chose energy crystals based on their energy levels, and that he would most likely fail. But at this moment, an appraisal result suddenly popped up on the virtual public screen in the hall. There was a golden sign behind the appraisal result, which meant that the level of the appraisald supernatural crystal would not be low.
Ying Chenlin also stopped. The first identification result was the supernatural crystal that he felt was blocking his mental power. The entire identification report did not list its species, only its supernatural effect.
S-level supernatural crystal [ice][water], supernatural [zero degree][deep water ball], supernatural zero degree has the function of rapid condensation and can create a large-scale freezing effect, and the supernatural deep water ball can condense into a huge water ball. The water ball is turbid and has a strong shackle effect.
Dual-attribute supernatural crystal! ? It's actually a dual-control functional energy crystal! ? ⑥
Ji Qingfeng saw this and said, "How much does this kind of supernatural crystal cost?"
Lin Yao began to count on his fingers.
Lu Xi said: "Functional energy crystals are as expensive as attack crystals. Dual-attribute crystals are probably worth hundreds of millions..."
Ji Qingfeng: “It’s sent!”
Huo Yan was shocked when he saw the result: "This can actually be opened."
You Su raised his eyebrows slightly: "I found something pretty good."
Ying Chenlin didn't expect this result. He was just curious about the blockage. "It seems like my luck is pretty good."
Many people around stared at the identification result. It was too outrageous that the stone was so highly contaminated but could still produce dual attributes. The businessman who had watched Ying Chenlin select the energy crystals before changed his expression slightly. He didn't realize that this young man could actually produce such a stone.
"Dual attributes?! How long has it been since the gambling stone field opened a dual-attribute energy crystal?"
“This thing is rare!”
"Could it be that the embryos from the gambling stone field this year are all good?"
"He can even come up with something like this... this kid is so lucky!"
There are more and more voices of discussion.
Ying Chenlin flipped down quickly, and the other two S-level supernatural crystals turned over. The second supernatural crystal that was also blocked was identified as a waste crystal with no special supernatural reaction.
Among the three S-level supernatural crystals, a special supernatural crystal was opened, and it was a rare dual-attribute supernatural crystal. This made many businessmen unable to sit still. They came over to ask the price. Even the manager of the Xingxiu Association came and said that he could provide auction services.
Is it easy to find S-level dual-attribute supernatural crystal? It's too hard to find, and each one is very expensive.
Ying Chenlin: "Sorry, I'm not in a hurry to sell it."
"Little brother, give me those energy crystals you just bought."
"Yes, it would be a waste if we don't identify it. It's okay to sell it for identification. I can buy your embryo for 3 million."
Ying Chenlin would not sell the other supernatural crystals. Those supernatural crystals were the ones he had carefully found and were going to take back as repair materials. There were no crystals with higher energy than those in the gambling stone field.
The discussion continued. Ying Chenlin put aside the other two energy crystals that had no special abilities found, and focused on the fire-attributed energy crystal that he had always cared about. Turning to the back, he saw a small golden mark on the back of the appraisal report of the fire-attributed energy crystal.
As soon as he opened the report, he saw the specific details on the supernatural crystal.
A-level mutant supernatural crystal [Fire], supernatural power [Blue Fire], will show blue flames when stimulated. The flame is suspected to be a flame associated with special pollutants. It has no high-energy destructive power. The micro-energy blue fire can burn a large amount of toxins, smoke, water vapor, etc. and has an evaporation and burning effect. The range where the blue fire is located can isolate supernatural reactions.
Ying Chenlin's expression changed slightly when he saw this. The ability to isolate supernatural reactions meant that it could be made into a control-free weapon like the shield of a tank mecha. It did not have high-energy destructive power, but its burning effect could help teammates dispel the control effects imposed by other mechas. It was a rare special-function fire-attribute supernatural crystal.
Just like ice and wind types are rare in attack-type energy crystals, special-function energy crystals are extremely rare in fire-type energy crystals that are always known for their high attack.
The effect of this fire-attributed supernatural crystal is in no way inferior to that of an S-level supernatural crystal.
"A-level supernatural crystal opened
Fire functional type? ? ? ”
"This young man is so lucky."
"It has fire-type functionality and has a burning effect. No wonder this one has such low energy luster."
"Two out of four were gold. This is such luck. It's worth it."
Norbert next to him looked at Ying Chenlin in surprise, "You are so lucky."
Ying Chenlin knew that the result of this energy crystal was not ordinary. He thought that at worst it would be a high-attack fire type. He didn't expect that it could actually produce a functional fire type. Even if such an energy crystal was A-level, it would be sold for at least 10 or 20 million energy crystals on the market.
More and more people gathered around, and many of them heard that a dual-attribute supernatural crystal and an A-level fire-type functional item had been opened, so they came over to check out the situation.
Many merchants around were already offering prices, but Ying Chenlin rejected their offers. After the result of this energy crystal was revealed, he confirmed something else. "Hello, I need confidential appraisal services."
He also has three special power crystals, one with dual attributes of thunder and fire, and two special power crystals left by his father.
These three supernatural crystals were his primary purpose for identification.
