The external "infection source" is just a stimulus similar to an allergen. The essence is that there is a problem with their own origin stone metabolism. This problem may come from radiation effects, natural disease effects, aging, or exposure to allergic substances. Of course It also includes direct inhalation of high-purity source stone dust and blood contact, etc.

While Xia Lin was analyzing and processing the source stone, Yelena was also doing her own work. Due to long-term malnutrition, she was only about half of Xia Lin's height. These fast-growing white-feathered chickens who are arrogant and do not know their own fate add drinking water.

The heavy bucket seems to be very light in her hand, and she can easily lift it away, add water and feed, and then just watch these white-feathered chickens in a daze. This is Yelena's current new life. I am very satisfied, I don't need to dig those dangerous rough ore mines, but the ore disease on my body seems to be completely cured, and I don't feel any pain anymore.

She watched the white feather chickens happily scrambling for feed. After eating the feed, she solemnly took out a notebook from the pocket of her overalls. Due to the abundance of wood, paper is a very easy material to make. The little girl took out a pencil and wrote in the notes. A cross was drawn on the end date, and after confirming that it was the last number, he happily looked at those white chickens.

The girl stretched out her increasingly white arms and moved towards the neck of a white feather chicken. The latter was not alert to this stupid two-legged creature at all, because she smelled like a harmless herbivore .

"Cluck!" The big rooster that was easily grabbed by Yelena's neck let out a sharp cry and struggled. This kind of fast-growing chicken that can grow to a large size in a short period of time is fat and strong, and its strength is quite amazing. It is the first time to catch a chicken Yelena could barely catch the guy.

But soon she found the trick, the skin that was as white as translucent shone slightly, and the delicate skin turned pale, a layer of faint cold mist enveloped the hands, quickly spread up the body of the rooster, along the white feathers until The head, the eyes lost their brilliance in an instant, and were covered with a layer of white mist.

This is the first time she has used Originium skills here. The more times an infected person uses Originium skills, it means that the Originium particles in the body are more activated, and more directly speaking, the part that combines with the body cells is more activated. , and the exhausted origin stone components will be separated into particles from the cell fluid and enter the blood.

For infected people, it is to increase the content of blood particles and the concentration of origin stone components, making the symptoms of infection worse, and when the blood is saturated and cannot be absorbed, these particles will even directly grow into dendrites in the cytoplasm.

The infected will feel extreme pain and torture, and the crystals on the body surface will begin to spread rapidly, and after reaching a certain level, even a slight touch may shatter, causing the infected to die of massive bleeding—of course, some infected who have overdrawn this ability It may even be completely trapped in the inability to release the ability, and the source stone crystals will be continuously precipitated, and eventually the whole person will become a crystal and then be dusted.

However, since Xia Lin said that she was cured, Yelena decided to believe him. Although he seemed a little taciturn and always thinking about things she couldn't understand, he was indeed a trustworthy person.

Nothing happened when using the Originium skill, no pain, no abnormality, except that the alarm on the wristband changed from green to light yellow, indicating that the detection concentration of Originium in her blood rose in a short period of time and died due to metabolism in a few seconds. Return to the green color of a normal person.

Yelena happily dragged the frozen rooster out of the chicken coop, partly because she could eat chicken tonight, she had been looking forward to the legendary roast chicken for a long time, since the chicks grew white feathers, Part of it is to find that he can indeed use Originium skills freely without the assistance of a staff, which can better help Xia Lin.

"This chicken...has it been in a blizzard? There hasn't been a blizzard recently, ah, are you being naughty?" Xia Lin looked at the completely frozen rooster in front of her, puzzled How did it die? He wondered if Yelena stuffed the chicken into the freezer in order to make an accidental death and eat it, but the chicken froze to death.

"No, isn't it the day to sell today?" "Ah, isn't it the day to sell today?" Xia Lin froze for a moment. Recently, she was too busy trying to make a simple engine, digging a reservoir and repairing it. As for the warehouse, I don't remember that it was time for the chickens to be slaughtered.

"Oh, you go and clean up the chicken coop. Except for the hen on the egg coop, keep one of the strongest roosters, and kill all the others. I'll fill the incubator with eggs." After all, industrialized farming is not necessary Xia Lin only made a simple incubator to incubate the eggs. After hatching all the eggs, they can only rely on normal reproduction.

Of course, the normal reproduction here just means hatching with the fertilized eggs produced by the hen, not that this strong rooster can live a life of singing and singing every night-in fact, in order to ensure the breeding rate and cultivate good breeds, artificial The method of collection and artificial insemination is like a stallion that may never see a mare for a lifetime.

Xia Lin, who was busy putting fertilized eggs in the incubator to hatch the next batch of chickens, had already left behind her previous doubts. After getting familiar with the process of catching chickens, Yelena skillfully picked up dozens of roosters this time. They were slaughtered, and only the strongest one was left. She could tell which one was stronger by hand feeling, and she was not very familiar with the use of the agricultural inspection scanner in her hand.

By the way, when she was cleaning the chicken coop, she found that there were a few more white eggs in the egg coop. She carefully took these eggs out and held them in her arms, thinking that they were the same as the eggs that could hatch chicks. A kind of thing, afraid that they will lose their vitality at low temperature and cannot hatch, so they are very careful to protect them with body temperature.

Then Xia Lin told them that they were sperm-free eggs, and they were used for eating. Once the hen started laying eggs, it meant that eggs could be produced every three to five times. These eggs should be stored in the freezer. When eating take it out.

At dinner time, dozens of roosters were stuffed into the meat processing cabin except one for roasting chicken, and the automatic decomposition machine turned them into rows of chicken legs, chicken wings, cut and packaged. Chicken breasts and so on, as if they were sold in the supermarket.

This set of equipment itself is designed for commercial production, so it has the function of automatic packaging. A dead chicken that has not yet been feathered is stuffed into it, and then it becomes a box of divided chicken and a large bag Chicken feathers come off a conveyor belt looking almost like magic.

The chicken that has undergone scalding and laser hair removal looks white and raw, with a hint of pink that is unique to freshness. The girl transported it to the freezer, and carefully followed the instructions on the wall to put the meat in the frozen classification grid. Save it inside.

On the other side, Xia Lin finally understood how the equipment with an oven for making finished cooked food works. She saved a little bit of reason and didn't stuff it all in. Instead, she cut off a few small pieces and tried the parameters one by one. , before stuffing the processed raw chicken into it.

Chapter 12 White Rabbit Sniper

There is no soy sauce, no spices, only salt and monosodium glutamate. The roast chicken made is honestly not delicious, but for people who have eaten nutritious biscuits for two months and potato and vegetable salad for nearly half a month, this is a rare meat meal. It can be said to be extremely delicious, even the bones of the chicken are gnawed clean.

Although he has a gun photo, Xia Lin, who is not a professional hunter, can't hunt any prey at all, or the hunting in reality is not the kind in the game. Most of the animals are very alert, and they are good at using their natural camouflage colors to hunt protect yourself.

In addition, there are hungry predators everywhere in winter, and the creatures that are still active are more cautious and cautious than usual. Even the top predator of the cat family, the lynx, is hunting on the snowfield. difficult thing.

After eating, as usual, first check the breeding box in the room, then the incubator, and finally the water tank with fish eggs. Fish is one of the main breeding objects when the alien water resources are relatively abundant, and it is also a spaceship. common meat and protein sources.

These fish species are standard Star Alliance genetically modified freshwater fish. The mother is common grass carp. After the improvement, they have rough meat, rich protein accumulation, various amino acids and fast growth characteristics. Generally speaking, they can be eaten directly is not recommended.

After the fish are harvested, they can be thrown into the comprehensive fish meat processing facility, and processed into products such as calcium supplement tablets (feed additives), edible gum, high-quality protein bars and compound soy sauce according to the standard food industry process of the Star Alliance. Then through the combination of cooking machines, it can become a relatively high-end spaceship fast food.

Including hamburger meat made of high-quality protein bars, seasoned protein bars that taste like crab sticks, and baked pudding. In the absence of a cooking machine and the combination of molecular gastronomy, the normal cooking method can also make food that is less than the current one. Condiments are good for vegan meals.

You know, even Xia Lin who has the support of the symbiont can hardly stand this kind of food. 3 kilograms of grain is enough. According to this consumption rate, it may not be possible to wait until the next round of harvest.

However, now that the first batch of rearing chickens have been slaughtered, and the laying hens have begun to lay eggs, it is much simpler after that. Dried eggs, mayonnaise, egg yolk powder, cakes, and various meat dishes can occasionally appear on the table.

With the supply of meat ingredients, Xia Lin and the others had to start looking for and planting spices, as well as carry out another exploration of the surrounding flora and fauna, and move to farther places.

Of course, before that, there is one more thing that must be done first, and that is to teach Yelena to use weapons. Whether it is local humans or other creatures, they are not necessarily friendly, so one more gun is one more. copies are safe.

The shooting range was set up in the open space on the other side of the creek. Two flattened log boards were placed on the wooden pier as a simple weapon preparation table, on which were placed three weapons and two tools that could be used as weapons.

Neither the Falcon assault rifle nor the Gauss pistol belonged to the weapons that Xia Lin could make, and Yelena's arm strength couldn't be used when he made it. It was designed for people wearing power-assisted equipment, and the recoil was quite large and heavy.

Therefore, what is placed on the table is an ordinary shotgun. The hunting equipment purchased together with those military-standard equipment before. Although Colony 14 is a desert planet, there are a large number of fur animals similar to sand foxes, so prepare a certain amount. A shotgun is necessary.

The three weapons on the table included two types of shotguns and a hunting crossbow. Xia Lin took out one of the long guns and said to Yelena, "This is the Falcon H-1 hunting rifle, with a total length of 1 meters. The total weight is about 1 kilograms, try it first to see if you can hold it easily.” The shape of the Falcon is no different from that of a gunpowder shotgun, and it uses 2 rounds of straight magazine feeding, with a buttstock and a strap.

Yelena took the rifle and felt it wasn't heavy. She nodded, "Yes, it's very light." For a normal ten-year-old girl, a 2kg shotgun is a heavy type. More precisely, it is for a normal adult man. Generally speaking, this gun is relatively heavy and inconvenient.

However, Yelena's arm strength was close to that of an adult male with implants like Xia Lin, so he was relieved to prepare this heavy shotgun for her.

"How do I use this?" Yelena was fiddling with the rifle, a little confused, she couldn't sense the Originium components inside, it is said that this kind of weapon, which Tarrant called "gun", required some kind of Originium skill to make it Activate the Originium components inside to launch attacks with etched ammunition.

It is worth mentioning that the power of the gun is not low, but it is the case of using expensive etched ammunition. If you do not use etched ammunition, but the ammunition made of ordinary industrial ketone and origin stone powder, it is essentially the same as Airsoft guns are about as powerful.

But using etched ammunition is another power. After all, etched origin stone itself is a kind of high-sensitivity energy material. For example, things like explosive crossbow bolts come from this way, but using etched ammunition basically has nothing to do with directly burning money. The difference is that even in the military, only special snipers will issue a small amount of etched ammunition.

If I have to say it, the etched ammunition is probably similar to the origin stone version of the bolt bomb. You can use the origin stone technology to control when to detonate and interfere with the ballistic to a certain extent. It needs to be cut and manufactured with a certain volume of pure origin stone-the possibility of processing and scrapping The performance is not low, and it is troublesome to save. Unless you are in special operations, you can't see it.

"Hold it here with your left hand, hold the grip with your right hand, and put your index finger outside the guard ring." Xia Lin took Yelena into her arms, and taught her the correct posture for holding the gun, even through the thick environmental protective clothing. The softness of the girl's body.

"Attention, unless you are going to shoot the target, don't put your index finger in the ring." Goldfinger is a good helper for recruits to kill teammates, and let the instructor see that it is a wrong behavior that can be stopped on the spot with a flying kick .

The fingers wrapped in the thick nano-fabric pressed the girl's slender index finger, making her notice the slight bump on the gun body, "This is the safety, remember to open it before shooting, and close it after the battle is over."

After getting Yelena familiar with the correct posture for holding the gun, Xia Lin taught her the correct posture for carrying the gun, how to quickly get the gun on her back to her hand, and the necessary actions to avoid entanglement with the strap.

Let her practice dozens of times, and make sure that there will be basically no cheating and forgetting the insurance before starting the next step. The real shooting training is not asking you to take up a weapon and waste bullets. The correct posture, how to use the photo Accurately aiming at the target, how to use the strength of the hands, shoulders, and wrists to buffer the recoil, and maintaining the stability and balance of the weapon all need to be taught from scratch.

Fortunately, Yelena may indeed have Maozi's brave blood, and she learned this quickly. Basically, when simulating shooting, she can quickly take off the weapon in a very standard posture, raise the gun to aim, it's just a matter of proficiency Coupled with short hands and small hands, the gun body is not very stable and has obvious shaking.

"Relax, don't hold it so tightly. No matter how hard you try, it won't do anything except crush the handle!" The girl's fair forehead was dripping with sweat. The usage of this kind of gun is so complicated, and there are so many rules and requirements. It's almost a struggle for her to remember.

"Relax your wrist, control your left hand, and relax your right hand. Hey, I'm not telling you to let go!" Xia Lin helplessly looked at Yelena who was so relaxed that the rifle fell to the ground. The girl's face turned red, and she lowered her head. Know what you're thinking, "Keep practicing, we're not in a hurry."

"Forget it, let's finish this part here, let's start the next step, do you remember?"

"I remember." Yelena nodded, and then watched Xia Rin start to disassemble the rifle, explaining to her what part it is, how to remove it, how to install it, especially the replacement of the magazine and the installation accessories. the process of.

There is no need to talk about maintenance now, but I will teach it slowly later, and when I have fully learned it, I can leave these two shotguns to her for safekeeping.Because as the exploration distance gets farther and farther, Xia Lin may not be able to come back that night. If she stays on the farm alone, knowing how to use a weapon is also an insurance, at least it makes her feel a little bit safer.

After teaching how to use the rifle, the next one is also a shotgun. "This gun is different from the last one. It is used to deal with medium and large animals." Xia Lin showed her the dark weapon in her hand, "Warhammer shotgun , a double-barreled smoothbore shotgun that can only be used at close range, compared to the previous one, it is more suitable for use in narrow places and can use three kinds of ammunition."

Including slugs for hunting large animals, stag bullets for hitting medium-sized animals such as red deer, and shell-breaking high-explosive bullets for dealing with sandworms. Only two rounds can be loaded. The excitation method is electrothermal propellant, so it is also electromagnetic One of the weapons.

Compared with the Falcon assault rifle in his hand, these two shotguns are electrothermal ammunition. The advantage is that the battery consumption is very low, and the recoil is the softest. There is also the explosion and vibration of the gunpowder weapon. A good guy for hunters - of course, the professional hunters who are not hunting enthusiasts - those who prefer retro powder shotguns.

The disadvantage is that the shooting stability is poor, and the boring speed is only about Mach 1.5~2.5. The kinetic energy is not enough to overcome the military-standard armor and civilian medium-sized protective gear of the Covenant, so the danger is relatively low.

The last "Artemis" hunting crossbow has nothing to introduce. It is a mechanically assisted crossbow and a crossbow that beginners can use smoothly. Yelena saw the mine guards using crossbows and bows to shoot those infected. , it is more familiar than those "guns", but I still don't know how to use it, and Xia Lin needs to teach it hand in hand.

After having some basic understanding of the three weapons, it is the turn of the two tools that can be used as weapons. First of all, the first one is the industrial tool knife for cutting, "Industrial ultra-high frequency cutting knife, this thing you Be very, very careful." Xia Lin picked up the knife that looked like it was only the length of a pencil.

"This is a small knife used to cut metal and armor. The workers use this thing to cut the armor of the battleship and scrape off the deformed parts in preparation for subsequent welding repairs. When necessary, it is also used to break the door and cut off the locked parts. Stigma and so on" uses the ion battery function, it can work for 30 minutes once fully charged, and it is just a dull knife when it is not turned on.

Xia Rin asked the girl to touch the blade and the blade without a blade, which felt similar to ceramics. The latter looked at him blankly, wondering why such a round, smooth, and bladeless thing was a dangerous knife. .

Then Xia Lin turned on the working button, and cut off the alloy sheet in front of him that was more than one centimeter thick as if cutting a straw, with high-temperature golden-red cutting marks remaining on the edge.This made the girl take two steps back in fright, because it looked too scary, especially the buzzing blade, as if some kind of evil spirit hovered over it.

"The last is this chain saw. I don't recommend you use these two things as weapons, but when necessary~" Xia Lin then taught her how to use the chain saw, and taught her how to use it hand in hand. This thing cuts wood and polymer lumber.

Afterwards, these two dangerous tools were taken away, and now I just let her know how powerful these two things are, and don't use your flesh and blood to play eggs and rocks with industrial machinery.

"Okay, let's stop here today. You can practice it yourself before you take it back. I didn't give you any ammunition for these three weapons. You can try them freely, as long as you don't break them." It's time for Yelena to familiarize herself with them as she likes. Weapons need to be constantly familiar with the feel and weight.

Xia Lin still has a few spare hunting guns here, so there is no need to worry about damage and parts wear in the short term, and it is not difficult to make gunpowder hunting guns as long as there are materials.

In the next few days, I will work in the morning and teach Yelena familiar with weapons and pre-shooting training in the afternoon, from the most basic posture to how to distinguish the type of ammunition, how to change ammunition, reload ammunition, how to aim and so on.

There is also a timeless training method, hanging a stone on the barrel of the gun, and letting her practice aiming with the gun raised for a long time, which will help improve her shooting stability and prevent the gun from drawing circles back and forth when aiming. shake.

"Zi~" The wooden saw was inserted into the wood bit by bit, cutting out flying debris. When Yelena was practicing, Xia Lin was processing the logs that had completed the preliminary treatment in the built woodworking shed. It was a practice of her own woodworking. craft.

I have to say that after a lot of practice, it has indeed improved by leaps and bounds. Before making a cabinet, it was crooked, but now I can basically make a qualified wardrobe, cabinet and wooden square shelf.

Xia Lin looked at the wooden boards in front of him with satisfaction, and assembled them into a new storage rack using the mortise and tenon joint structure. These racks will be moved to the work shed by Yelena in the future to store the newly added tools and various items. A variety of sundries, such as ore specimens, boxes full of messy things, clay pots and so on.

These things were found when Xia Lin searched the surroundings these days. Among them, the wild vegetables that Yelena knew were sent to a special preservation incubator for transplanting, trying to purify the origin stone ingredients inside, and then processing them into food. Expand a currently monotonous recipe.

There are also some wild spices that make the daily meals a lot more delicious. After preparing the blood cleanser and neutralizer, Xia Lin tried the spices with origin stone ingredients, but found that she could not Absorb the source stone ingredients inside.

If you ingest a large amount, according to the current situation, the greatest possibility is urinary stones and constipation, because the body cells do not absorb such things, so they can only enter the blood directly, and finally become accumulated in the kidneys or urine The salt-origin crystals of the road are discharged.

If you ingest too much at one time, the crystals will become very large and cause inflammation, but that's all. This means that Xia Lin can breathe the local atmosphere directly without wearing a heavy protective suit when going out. You need to set the symbiote to actively wrap these particles and then accelerate the mode of breathing and sweating.

In terms of food, there is no need to insist on high-level purification, and you can directly eat local animals and plants. However, for the sake of Yelena's condition, he still insists on purifying the food as much as possible.After all, the source stones she ingested were kept to the minimum of life activities, so as to prevent her ore disease from recurring.

Chapter 13 Sniper Operator White Rabbit

In the temporary training ground on the other side of the stream, Xia Lin has already set up more than a dozen targets with different heights and distances. They are all the most common type with patterns painted on square wooden boards, and they are inserted into the ground with a wooden stick.

These targets vary in size, and the patterns on them range from the largest bear to the smallest squirrel. Currently, they are all stationary targets. Moving targets are not yet available, and the related mechanical structures are also very troublesome.After a few days of basic training, after mastering basic ammunition knowledge, safety rules and gun posture, I started to practice formal shooting today.

Still didn't take out the source stone ammunition, and didn't let her replace it with a weapon with source stone components. Yelena felt that the blunderbuss mentioned by the uncles in the mine must be bragging, because the previous dismantling exercise contained The principle of this weapon has been roughly explained.

In her understanding, the energy provided by the box that may be made by the source stone (it glows) ignites (ionizes) the ion fuel at the end of the shellless ammunition ammunition and turns it into a rapidly expanding ion that pushes the warhead forward.

In fact, it is almost the same. The use of instantaneous discharge makes the terminal ion material rapidly ionize and release heat into a high-temperature plasma to further expand the high-evaporative working fluid in the middle, thereby pushing the ammunition out of the bore, which can achieve a fairly high speed and a relatively low temperature. Much more recoil.

As a heavy-duty hunting rifle, the Falcon uses 10mm ammunition, which is as thick as Yelena’s index finger. Xia Lin asked Yelena to pay attention to a small light bar near the chin.

It will display the current battery and ammunition status in four colors of green, yellow, red and white. If the display is white, it means that the remaining power is only enough to activate once. If it is not lit at all, it means that the battery is exhausted. either damaged.

Xia Lin asked her to check and confirm this part before shooting, and if the ammunition in the magazine is empty, and the battery is red.The rest of the green and yellow colors indicate that the ammunition and power are normal, and the green electric bombs are fully charged.

In addition to the falcon, Xia Rin also has a 5mm "calf-type shotgun". The weapon is theoretically more suitable for little girls. It has a magazine of 7 rounds, and its length and weight are more ideal. It was designed for hunting birds and small animals. However, considering the heavy armor of the mine guards he encountered that day, Xia Lin felt that it might not be very useful, so he replaced it with a falcon heavy-duty shotgun.

This, like the Warhammer, is a weapon designed to hunt medium and large prey, except that one focuses more on close-range and more impactful animals, while the other focuses on long-distance killing of larger animals that are more alert and difficult to approach , such as wildebeest and bison.

"Hold it up, and use the sight on the gun to aim at the target. You don't need to worry about the ammunition falling at this distance. Relax your muscles a little, otherwise your shoulders will definitely swell up later. Okay, this is the position, shoot!"

Yelena pressed her index finger on the trigger and exerted a little force. After a slight click, a huge impact came from her shoulder, as if someone had hit herself with a fist, and what followed was a more powerful than the falcon style. A crisp and loud "Bang!".

The girl's petite body leaned back obviously under the impact of the first shot. If she hadn't stretched out her right foot and stepped on the ground, she would probably have been overturned by the recoil. However, this was only from the first live round The shooting was caught off guard.

This shot was missed without any hesitation, but in Xia Lin's opinion, it was good enough that he didn't fall to the ground or scream pain while holding his shoulder for the first time when shooting with this heavy rifle, and the next shot was the second one. This time, Yelena firmly grasped the body of the gun, her body only shook slightly, and she was stabilized by her strong muscles.

The nearest target in front of her fell down, but it was only on the target. Next, Xia Lin asked her to use the precise shooting method of slowly aiming to finish the ammunition in the two magazines, and then let Yelena rest for a while, let the acid The sore muscles healed and started shooting at farther and smaller targets.
