As day and night alternate, the brightness of lightning in the sky produces extremely obvious changes.
When we returned to the Pingshan underground city, it was the time when the lightning of the Star of Despair was at its brightest, and it was also noon of the day.
As soon as they arrived at Pingshan Underground City, Zhuo Fan suggested: "Lin Tao, let's find a few people to form a team."
"Why?" Lin Tao wondered. There were two conditions for leaving the Star of Despair. One was that someone was needed to control the spacecraft, and the other was that a thunder-type telekinetic master was needed.
Together with Zhuo Fan, they made up for these two conditions. The two of them could definitely leave easily and there was no need to team up with anyone else.
Zhuo Fan shrugged: "I don't have the authority to fly the spaceship. You and Sharon are coming here. The authority to fly the spaceship should be in their hands, right?"
So this was the reason. Lin Tao immediately laughed.
Zhuo Fan came with Adamson and others, but the authority of the spaceship was not in his hands. However, Lin Tao and Salon formed a team, and the control of the spaceship was obviously in Salon's hands.
Therefore, Zhuo Fan believed that they were not short of people, but they were short of spaceships.
How can we leave this planet without a spaceship?
However, although Zhuo Fan is a professional analyst, he did not expect that Lin Tao is not just one person, but also has a core bead of the mechanical race in his shoulder muscle.
In order to cooperate with Zeng to fully control the Salon spaceship, Lin Tao took a long time to leave the spaceship.
"Come with me." Lin Tao gestured to Zhuo Fan. At the same time, he used his telekinesis to quietly contact Zhe in his mind: "Zhe, can you send the key to the spacecraft to the watch?"
"Yes, but it will take some time." Zhe responded. At this moment, it was still in Lin Tao's shoulder muscles. With Zhuo Fan by his side, it was not easy for it to show up. In this case, it would take some time to send the spaceship key to the watch.
Lin Tao nodded secretly and asked, "How long will it take?"
"About ten minutes." Zhe replied.
Ten minutes?
Lin Tao looked up at the spaceship and walked slowly.
Zhuo Fan was startled for a moment, then his eyes lit up and he shouted, "Lin Tao, do you have permission to use the spaceship?"
He had some understanding of the relationship between Lin Tao and Salon, but Zhuo Fan had never expected, let alone deduced, that Lin Tao actually had the authority to board the spacecraft. After all, the relationship between Lin Tao and Salon was not as solid as imagined.
"I have some knowledge of mechanics and I have a good memory, so I wrote down the spaceship key at that time." Lin Tao said indifferently.
Hiss! Upon hearing this, Zhuo Fan took a deep breath and looked at Lin Tao with eyes full of disbelief.
The key to the spacecraft is not just a string of numbers. It contains all kinds of complicated runes and even thousands of disordered symbols. If it were to be recorded in a paper document, it would probably take up several pages.
To put it bluntly, the spaceship key can almost be regarded as an incomprehensible book!
This kind of key, even as a professional analyst, Zhuo Fan needs at least one or two days to prepare if he wants to write it down.
Lin Tao...actually forced himself to remember it. What kind of memory ability does he have? Could it be that this guy has an extremely rare super memory? Zhuo Fan's eyes fell on Lin Tao's face, and his eyebrows twitched for a while.
At this time, Lin Tao walked slowly towards the spaceship with a look of hesitation, as if he was recalling his memory. Seeing this, Zhuo Fan quickly closed his mouth and even controlled the sound of his footsteps, fearing that any sound would have an impact, because Zhuo Fan knew in his heart that Lin Tao was most likely recalling the key at this time.
Lin Tao had no idea what Zhuo Fan was thinking. All he had to do now was to slow down his pace and wait for ten minutes to pass until Zeng successfully sent the message to his watch.
Fortunately, ten minutes is neither too short nor too long.
The two had not yet reached the spaceship, but time had passed and Zeng had successfully sent the key to the watch.
Lin Tao was calm in his heart, but since he had slowed down his pace at the beginning, he couldn't speed up all of a sudden, so he could only walk over slowly. As for Zhuo Fan, he always thought that Lin Tao was recalling, so he didn't ask.
It took the two of them nearly half an hour to get from the city gate to the spaceship.
"This is Salon's spaceship." Lin Tao pointed at the spaceship in front of him.
Zhuo Fan nodded. He forced himself not to speak. After all, the extremely complicated key disrupted his thinking, and he needed to recall it from the beginning. This was an extremely troublesome and tricky thing.
However, when Zhuo Fan saw Lin Tao raise his watch to face the scanning beam of the spacecraft, his pupils suddenly contracted. He blinked a few times, and after a long hiccup in his throat, he finally couldn't help but said, "Lin Tao, when you said to write down the key, did you use the watch to write it down?"
Lin Tao nodded. He had asked Zhe to send the key to the watch, so of course he had to go down the stairs. "Such a long key, of course the watch has memorized it. Otherwise, what else do you think?"
Poof! Zhuo Fan almost spit out the saliva in his mouth. He thought that Lin Tao remembered the key by relying on his powerful super memory. He even didn't dare to ask when he saw Lin Tao slow down his pace. He also kept the sound of his footsteps to avoid confusing Lin Tao's thinking.
Unexpectedly, Lin Tao actually stored the key in his watch...
If he had known this earlier, Zhuo Fan would definitely have hurried over. They had wasted nearly half an hour walking slowly all the way.
Time waits for no one, half an hour...
"This guy..." Zhuo Fan's heart was bleeding, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Lin Tao seemed to want to swallow him up.
Swish! After entering the key into the spaceship through the watch, the hatch opened and Lin Tao entered first. He pointed to the spaceship console and said, "Zhuo Fan, there is no prompt on the operation panel of this spaceship. I will take the time to demonstrate it to you before leaving. Once we enter the thundercloud layer, you will be the one to operate it."
Zhuo Fan nodded coldly with a blank expression on his face. Suddenly, his heart twitched, but he couldn't help asking, "Regarding the control method, did you save it in your watch or in your mind?"
"Of course it's in my mind. Salon just practiced it for me once." Lin Tao said as he looked at Zhuo Fan in disbelief.
This guy, is his train of thought a little strange? Lin Tao wondered in his heart.
Do analysts have unique brain circuits?
As for the skills of spacecraft operation, not only Lin Tao, but even Shalong did not remember them in their watches, and they could only rely on their memory to memorize them.
Feeling that Lin Tao was looking at him as if he were a fool, Zhuo Fan almost spat out the blood that had been accumulating for a long time on the spot.
It took Zhuo Fan a long while to catch his breath, but he didn't dare to ask anything about the spaceship anymore.
After entering the spaceship, Lin Tao walked straight to the fresh food that Xu Yang had distributed earlier. Fortunately, due to Xu Yang's hobby, there was a fresh food cabinet in the spaceship, and the food was well kept.
After Lin Tao took out the fresh food cabinet, he thought of something again and quickly pushed open his clothes. Seeing a patch of black skin in front of his abdomen, he couldn't help but frowned.
When Lin Tao was in Hidden Thunder Peak, he was filled with black wind and contracted the Despair Star Disease. Although he took vitamin pills, they did not work immediately.
Fortunately, Lin Tao also saw that after taking the vitamin pills, the black skin had gradually faded, leaving only a palm-sized mark.
"Zhuo Fan, how long will it take for this to subside?" Lin Tao asked with a frown. He remembered what Sharon and the others had reminded him, that people with the Despair Star Disease could not leave the Despair Planet.
"Despair Star Disease?" Zhuo Fan's eyes condensed. After his eyes flashed a few times, he took out a green copper ring from his body. After a ripple-like floating, a needle-free injection tube suddenly appeared.
"Lin Tao, inject it." Zhuo Fan gestured after throwing the needle-free injection tube to Lin Tao.
"This is..." Lin Tao took it and asked doubtfully. Compared to the green copper ring with space function, he was more curious about the effect of the potion at this moment.
"This is the potion for restraining the Despair Star Disease that I exchanged for before entering the Despair Star." Zhuo Fan explained: "Although the people here need fresh food to eliminate the Despair Star Disease, after the investigation of the pharmacists, they have already developed a special antidote, but..."
At this point, Zhuo Fan's eyes flickered a few times: "In order to control low-level adventurers, the Despair Planet did not promote this potion."
Lin Tao was stunned, but then he figured it out. If this potion was popularized, no one would be afraid of the Despair Star Disease anymore. In this way, it would be difficult for the city lords and law enforcers to control the adventurers who were infected with the Despair Star Disease.
Until this moment, Lin Tao still remembered the fate of Liang Ping and Zheng Wei when he first arrived in Pingshan City. These two people were also high-level adventurers, but because of the despair star disease, they had to beg for mercy.
Perhaps this is what those in power do.
After Lin Tao's eyes flashed, he injected the medicine into his body without hesitation.
After a while, the dark skin on the abdomen gradually faded away, and then disappeared without a trace at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Is this solved?" Lin Tao was surprised.
"Of course, the Despair Star Disease is not a particularly troublesome patient, it is just deliberately controlled by someone." Zhuo Fan finished speaking, and seemed to think of something: "Lin Tao, have you taken anything? I remember that people who have been in contact with the Black Wind have black skin on their bodies that is at least this big."
As Zhuo Fan spoke, he made a gesture with his hands that was the size of a human head.
Lin Tao nodded. When he was infected with the Despair Star Disease, the skin on his abdomen was exactly this size. He took out the bottle of vitamin pills from his waist and said, "Sharon and the other two have received news, so they prepared a lot of vitamin pills."
"Vitamin pills?" Zhuo Fan sneered at the channel through which Salon obtained the information, but when he saw the vitamin pills, his eyes lit up: "Great, Lin Tao, let me take care of these vitamin pills."
Lin Tao looked puzzled.
"I still have a few tubes of that potion, but this thing can't appear in the eyes of the Despair Star adventurers at will. But this vitamin pill is not an exception. Under normal circumstances, only ten vitamin pills are needed to solve the Despair Star disease within half a month. As long as they are managed well, they can be exchanged for Master Despair Star Coins." Zhuo Fan explained.
A bottle of vitamin pills contains at least a hundred pills. As long as they are distributed well, they can be exchanged for enough Despair Star Coins.
So that's how it is. Thinking of the fresh ingredients in the spaceship, Lin Tao asked Zhuo Fan to take care of them all.
Compared to Zhuo Fan, Lin Tao really doesn't have that kind of talent for trading. In his hands, this bottle of vitamin pills can only be traded on the trading desk at most.
Thinking of the exchange counter, Lin Tao was startled: "Isn't it only possible to exchange at the exchange point?"
"Hehe, we have a lot of fresh ingredients. As long as we take them to the exchange point to exchange them, they will turn a blind eye to our little tricks."
As Zhuo Fan spoke, a gurgling sound came out of the green copper ring again. In an instant, one by one, the fresh ingredients that had been sorted and tied up came out of it.
"This..." After a moment, even Lin Tao couldn't help but twitch his eyelids.
The amount of fresh food in Zhuo Fan's copper ring even exceeded the amount prepared by Xu Yang on the spacecraft.
"This guy is quite well prepared." Lin Tao sighed in his heart. He also had space objects on him, but unfortunately he was not prepared at all, otherwise he would definitely be able to exchange them for a lot of thunder stones.
In Zhuo Fan's eyes, the Thunder Stone was just an item used for trading on the Star of Despair, but in Lin Tao's hands, it was something that could be used for cultivation.
At Lin Tao's current level of strength, a thunder stone can at least increase his mental strength by one point.
However, thinking of the bag of thunderstones Zhuo Fan had given him before, he frowned again: "Zhuo Fan, the bag of thunderstones you gave me..."
"That's a deposit. Once a deposit is paid, it cannot be taken back. Since it's been given to you, just take it." Zhuo Fan waved his hand indifferently.
The twenty thunder stones were what he had asked for from City Lord Kong Zhen, but thinking of the freezing relationship between Lin Tao and him, Zhuo Fan only regarded the twenty thunder stones as an apology from City Lord Kong Zhen to Lin Tao.
What's more, with the items that the two of them have taken out now, as long as they manage them well, they can definitely exchange them for more than twenty thunder stones.
After everything was prepared, Zhuo Fan left the spaceship directly. He was going to negotiate the terms with the law enforcers at the exchange point. As for Lin Tao, he stayed on the spaceship.
"What a pity. I was planning to ask about space objects. It seems that I will have a chance only after I leave this desperate planet." Looking at Zhuo Fan's back, Lin Tao frowned.
Fortunately, Zhuo Fan had not been away for long, and he had brought more than ten law enforcers with him, among whom was Fei Yiming from before. After seeing Lin Tao, he was also stunned for a moment.
The law enforcers were not strong enough, so they did not participate in the insect luring plan. So when Fei Yiming saw Lin Tao here again, his eyes flickered for a long time.
Not long ago, Lin Tao's name was removed from the blacklist, which made Fei Yiming confused and curious at the same time, but he knew in his heart that he should only ask the questions that should be asked, and things that should not be asked should be kept in his heart.
Since Lin Tao was removed from the blacklist and returned to Pingshan City, he must have had his own experiences, so Fei Yiming did not ask.
Zhuo Fan exchanged the fresh ingredients on the spaceship and the bottle of vitamin pills for nearly forty thunder stones.
After the exchange was completed, Lin Tao and the others made some preparations and then operated the spaceship to fly away from Pingshan City and dive into the thunderclouds in the sky.
I have to go out for a trip to write a big chapter of 4,000 words. Things have been happening one after another during this period, which is very troublesome. I even took two days off, which delayed the time for revising the text. If I come back early, I will write another chapter. If I come back late, I will just revise the text and update it tomorrow.
