Chapter 8 Regarding the Trigger Function

There were cries outside the door.

When I first entered the shop, there were only three sickle owl larvae outside.

Now, dozens of minutes have passed, and the situation is no longer clear.

Judging from the sound alone, the number of larvae is probably increasing.

Fortunately, inspired by Chen Hai's words "let one in", Lu Ming also had a clear plan for killing the larvae.

The door of the repair shop has two layers, the outer layer is a roller shutter door that opens and closes up and down, and the inner layer is a glass door that opens and closes inside and outside.

If he opens the gap of the glass door to the size that the larvae can enter, then fixes it with a chain lock, and finally raises the roller shutter door to the height that the larvae just enter.

It can complete a simple restricted door that only allows one sickle owl larva to pass through at a time.

At that time, he will stand on a chair and ambush on one side of the glass door, just waiting for the larvae to enter, and then he can use his own weight and falling inertia to stab the machete into the larvae's body, destroy the core body, and complete the killing.

Of course, this is a written script. If you want to implement it so smoothly, you have to consider whether there are any variables.

The most basic thing is the durability of the glass door.

If the larvae do not take the usual route and collide randomly, causing the glass door to break or collapse directly, then he will have to face an extremely dangerous situation.

However, time does not wait for him, and he can only do it as soon as possible.

With the help of the screwdriver and wrench in the toolbox, he can fix the gap of the glass door with a chain lock.

Take out a few data cables and twist them into ropes to wrap around the handle of the rolling shutter.

After testing the bearing capacity of the data cable rope and feeling that there is no problem, he moved a chair to stand on it and pulled the rolling shutter door open with force.

Crash!

Although he was very careful, the friction sound of the rolling shutter door was still very prominent.

The crying outside the door stopped abruptly, followed by the clang of the rolling shutter door.

It was a mistake.

But he didn't want to back down. Anyway, there would be noise no matter how he pulled, so it's better to break the jar and be decisive.

In order to prevent the collision from becoming more intense, Lu Ming pulled the shutter door to a height of half a meter, just enough for the larva to enter.

In an instant, the pungent stench and the fat larva rushed in.

To be honest, even if he was mentally prepared, facing the alien species still made his heart beat faster and his adrenaline surge!

"Identification."

Holding his breath and shaking off the fear in his heart, Lu Ming silently opened the Eye of Truth.

The weakness of the first sickle owl larva that rushed in was completely exposed. It was very cunning. It was hidden at the bottom of the abdomen. It stabbed from top to bottom, which was very close to the limit of the machete. If you are not careful, you may not be able to touch it, and you need to make up for it.

But make up for it, what else can you do? The door is open, and there is no way back.

After hesitating for half a second, Lu Ming dropped the knife vertically, and the weight of the whole person pressed on the handle of the knife. With a puff, green body fluids splashed out, and the blade was completely immersed in the larva's body, accurately stabbing the light spot.

Click.

A crisp cracking sound came into my ears, and the fat larvae collapsed with a bang. The alien creature that was just full of vitality turned into a cold corpse in an instant.

Instant kill with one strike, no surprise, ordinary knife skills are quite powerful.

The epidermis is indeed fragile, but the fat is extremely thick, and the larvae have a subconscious emergency avoidance. The moment the blade pierced, I clearly felt a sharp increase in friction, which should be caused by squeezing the muscles. Fortunately, I used all my strength, otherwise it would be slightly blocked when piercing, and the blade would not be able to touch the core position. The next moment is the performance of the "proud" state larvae.

Pulling out the machete, bringing out the green body fluid, Lu Ming was glad that he did not rush to collect the corpse.

There are still three larvae squeezing in behind. If it weren't for the larvae's corpse blocking it, the second larva would definitely follow.

Taking a deep breath, Lu Ming stood on the leather chair again, holding the machete tightly while glancing at the machete information, and then took a breath of cold air.

Durability: 70/100

Just by killing a larva once, the durability of the machete dropped by 10 points!

What's going on?

Could it be that the core is located below the abdomen, and if it pierces straight, it will pass through the stomach first, causing the blade to be corroded by the concentrated acid gastric juice?

If this is true, the grade of the machete must be upgraded quickly, otherwise it will be a big mess if it is left without a weapon later.

"Collect!"

Lock the corpse, mutter in a deep voice, and the larvae corpse will decompose out of thin air, leaving only a pool of thick yellow traces to prove that it existed.

[Successfully collected the corpse of the sickle owl larva, obtained a specialized crystal*1, high-purity alien protein*1]

Very good, good luck, got a specialized crystal, as for what the high-purity alien protein is, Lu Ming has no time to see, because the second sickle owl larva has already rushed in.

"Identification!"

The core is exposed, this time it is still near the bottom of the abdomen, what about the difference? Does it count if it is just a little off? Isn't it good to abide by your own monster settings? Can you have some personality? For example, if you put it on the top of your head, you will die faster. How convenient is that?

Secretly complaining, Lu Ming used the same trick again. With the experience of the first instant kill, he was obviously much calmer the second time. The most important thing is that ordinary swordsmanship gives courage and confidence.

The blade fell, the body fluids sprayed, and the core body broke. The whole process was done in one go without any obstruction.

The only thing that made him feel helpless was that the machete lost another 10 points of durability.

60/100, only two larvae are left before the curling blade.

Fortunately, the curling blade does not mean that you can't stab straight, not to mention that there is only one crystal left before the sublimation machete.

If you are lucky, you can directly replace the straight knife with this wave of collection.

Back to the chair, lock the sickle owl larvae corpse.

"Collect!"

[Successfully collected the corpse of the sickle owl larvae and obtained high-purity foreign protein*1]

“…”

Somewhat speechless, the second one did not give crystals.

I am annoyed, but thinking back on the benefits I got at the beginning, I seem to be a little relieved.

My mind calmed down, and the third sickle owl larvae crawled in right after it.

“Identification.”

Very good, as if I heard his feedback, this time the larvae’s core is really hidden in the head.

It must be friendly to the machete without passing through the stomach, and there is not much fat on the head, so there is no need to use a direct stab that relies on hits to kill.

Falling, swinging his arms, and chopping down with a knife, the larvae’s head and core are split together.

Checking the condition of the machete, the durability has only dropped by 2 points, which proves that gastric acid corrosion is the source of the persecution durability.

Looking back at the crack in the door, there is only the last larva left, and I don’t know if it has witnessed too many casualties of brothers and sisters, and its activity level has increased dramatically, and it actually crawled in directly on the corpse of its own kind.

Lu Ming was not lenient. Before, you had a companion, so he had to deal with it separately. Now you are the only one left. What is he afraid of? Just do it.

Identification and collection fell at the same time.

The body decomposed into a high-purity alien protein.

That's right, no specialized crystal appeared again.

The sickle owl larvae that trampled on the corpse of the same kind were stepped on by Lu Ming's operation and fell straight down.

Taking advantage of the larvae's sudden fall, Lu Ming stepped forward and stabbed into the neck, piercing the fatal nucleus at the back of the neck, ending its life.

At this point, all four aliens entrenched at the door of the repair shop were killed.

"Collect."

[Successfully collected the body of the sickle owl larvae, obtained specialized crystal*1, high-purity alien protein*1]

After two rounds of disappointment, the second specialized crystal finally arrived, but Lu Ming was not as happy as he imagined.

He slowly closed the shutter door, tied the glass door tightly, and then returned to the display cabinet where he leaned before to calm down.

Only after he calmed down did he open the space bag.

Looking around, there was a crystal clear, blue-light diamond crystal in the third compartment.

After taking it out, it was only as thick as a thumb, and it felt peaceful and warm. When rolled in the palm of your hand, it would emit a little crystal dust.

Dreamy, strange, and a little sad.

This was his sensory judgment as a human.

Unfortunately, only two of the four were produced, with a probability of only 50%.

If it were someone else, who didn't know the consumption of specialized crystals, 50% would be okay.

But he had the ultimate sublimation, a gold-eating beast, and 50% was really not enough. Unless the blocking skill was no longer used, his consumption would always be countless times greater than others.

Maybe in the future, more people can hunt alien species, and they can use the trading house to sell sublimation props to make a lot of money.

Now everyone is penniless, and even survival is a problem.

Unless it's a desperate moment, who would sell the specialized crystals that strengthen their own strength?

It was too tiring to rely on himself. If he was unlucky, he might not be able to produce two out of ten. That was not what he wanted.

So he was thinking, could he use the ultimate sublimation to target a certain point to increase the probability of producing specialized crystals?

Directly sublimate the alien species?

Theoretically, it is feasible. The higher the grade of the alien species, the rarer the output will be, and the ordinary output will also be higher.

But that seems to be a brain-dead behavior. If you don’t have the personal strength to crush one or two classes, you will definitely die.

So the alien species that are the source of output cannot be targeted for the time being.

If you can’t target the source of output, can you target the function that triggers the output?

For example, this... [Collection].
