Sky-cracking Rider
Chapter 873 - 873: Section 866 - Completely Outrageous

Heseman Brown suggested again, "I'm afraid these alone won't be enough. I suggest you bring out the other items too."

The 600-meter-long giant spaceship could dominate the atmosphere of Blue Star, but facing a super-giant several kilometers long was still inadequate. After all, even a tenth of the length was not enough to qualify, not even matching its girth. They couldn't win by ramming either.

Although Miyoshi Xuesen's list was partially modified by Chen Fei, the monk's vision was sharp, and everything listed was a rare and practical treasure.

In addition to the "Secluded Space Tower" for his family's emergency shelter and the "Light Elemental Holy Crystal" for Xiao Jiu, Chen Fei also requested the "Elemental Affinity Talent Awakening Crystal," a collection of Blue Star Civilization's alchemy data packages, over a hundred types of rare alchemical materials, and the ownership of the alchemical storage artifact wrapped around his left wrist.

The alchemical creations and natural products with mysterious legends and powerful functions didn't attract Chen Fei; their usage range and conditions were not suitable for him. Things like yachts were even more unnecessary as he was already free with airships; why would he need amphibious yachts now?

Some light-series alchemical artifacts and magical beast crystal cores were either less practical than the "Light Elemental Holy Crystal" or completely unusable by Xiao Jiu. The benefit potions were a dead end for now, so many seemingly good but untimely items were abandoned by Miyoshi Xuesen and Chen Fei.

Besides that, Chen Fei also demanded over a million high-performance processors and billions of electronic components, fifty sets of professional medium-sized AI processing centers, plus some earthly rank magic potions, both listed and unlisted by the S-class abilities user. Altogether, it was a long list.

Heavy rewards get brave men. If Chen Fei was to fight hard, benefits must be given; discussing duty, sacrifice, and selflessness was just nonsense.

"Alright, let me see!"

Chen Fei picked up his tablet and started browsing the cloud document, looking for anything that could be used in an emergency.

S-class Space Ability User Heseman Brown bluntly said, "Don't pick. Take out the 'Elemental Affinity Talent Awakening Crystal' and give it a shot. Maybe you'll awaken a second ability, which could be handy."

Chen Fei hesitated and said, "I planned to keep it for my girlfriend!"

Teacher Shen Fei wasn't an ability user. Relying solely on the Shadow Wolf beside her was evidently insufficient.

Heseman Brown glanced at him and said meaningfully, "Young man, if you die, she'll be someone else's girlfriend!"

This mission was nine deaths and one life.

Even with an S-class ability user like him accompanying for protection, allowing an instant escape, accidents could happen anytime, and no one dared to guarantee a hundred percent survival.

Heseman Brown's statement was seasoned Jianghu wisdom.

"..."

Suddenly, Chen Fei found the other's words made sense, leaving him speechless.

After all, it was a common truth.

Even if buried in an alien star, with no remains left, expecting a girlfriend without a registered relationship to stay loyal forever was far-fetched. No matter how deep the feelings were, it wasn't right to trap someone like that.

Though he cherished her and had reserved good things for her, priorities had to be set. His own survival was paramount.

After realizing this, Chen Fei took out a cubical box the size of a fist from the "spatial branding." Half of the box lid was transparent, revealing a corn-kernel-sized transparent bead fixed inside.

The "Elemental Affinity Talent Awakening Crystal" was a spherical bead created using a Heavenly Order elemental affinity-boosting magic potion as the carrier, through the concentrated distillation of an S-class ability user's psi skill, stabilizing the special effects of the skill. It had a 10% chance of awakening after ingestion, but the specific type of ability depended on fate. It could be of the Light Series, Metallic Series, Earth Series, or any other, with the superpower level ranging randomly from G-class to S-class.

Just like the awakening ability itself, it was full of uncertainty, but this uncertainty was far better than having no chance. Therefore, the "Elemental Affinity Talent Awakening Crystal" was extraordinarily precious, and its creation ranked as an S-class psi skill without a doubt.

However, compared to the team of ability users Louis Landon, the president of Louis Industrial Company, had prepared for Chen Fei, the value of the "Elemental Affinity Talent Awakening Crystal" was much inferior.

Chen Fei's ability was of the Space Series, with specified psi skills; only the storage space capacity was left to fate. The fact that the psi skill could be specified was already quite impressive.

Moreover, the actual storage capacity corresponding to the "spatial branding" was so large that, even if it didn't reach the S-class level, it wasn't far from it. Currently, searching the list of existing ability users on Blue Star, it was almost impossible to find a repeat, as many psi skills were unique. Whether the same ability user would appear again was up to fate.

Using the "Elemental Affinity Talent Awakening Crystal," if luck was good, awakening another ability combined with the existing one—like Metallic Series with "spatial branding"—would nearly immediately enhance practical application and combat power.

But as Heseman Brown said, it was a gamble.

Success would bring high status; failure would bring nothing.

The effects and power of the S-class psi skill were significant, with equally huge limitations. Getting a second "Elemental Affinity Talent Awakening Crystal" was almost impossible, and random ability awakenings weren't as common as daily meals; even fate wouldn't allow it.

"Chirp!"

Just as Chen Fei took out the "Elemental Affinity Talent Awakening Crystal" from the cubical box, Xiao Jiu suddenly flew down from the flock of birds circling below the spaceship bridge ceiling and landed in his hand, curiously inspecting the corn-kernel-sized bead.

If not for the sovereign collection and specific instructions, this tiny thing could easily be mistaken for a glass bead or fish oil capsule.

"What, Xiao Jiu, want to eat it?"

Chen Fei held the "Elemental Affinity Talent Awakening Crystal" in front of the little bird, displaying it.

The little guy even secretly drank alcohol, so its curiosity was immense. At the moment, it ignored the flock and had to come down to see for itself.

The three thousand Pure Light Sparrows, seemingly having mastered the technique of gathering Light Elemental Energy, continued to sing and maintain their flying formation, unaffected by Xiao Jiu's departure.

"Chirp?"

One stretch of the neck, one peck, one gulp, neat and clean…

"What???"

Heseman Brown, the S-class space ability user who happened to witness this, was stunned, raising a trembling finger at the man and bird, furiously shouting, "Hey, hey, hey, it ate it! The bird ate it! Did you see that? WTF! That was an 'Awakening Crystal'! How could it eat that!!! How could you let it eat it!"

The incredibly precious "Elemental Affinity Talent Awakening Crystal" was fed to Sparrow Sparrow right in front of him, an act of total waste. Who would dare to believe it?

A tiny "Awakening Crystal" like this, if it got out, could cost dozens of lives in a scramble.

Casually putting the now-empty cubical box back into his "spatial branding," Chen Fei lovingly scratched the bird's nape, nonchalantly saying, "It's no big deal if it ate it!"

His combat skills rarely depended on such things. His psychic power index, even without magic potions, increased swiftly, not inferior to any Psychic Series ability users.

The benefits of his psychic power index growth were evident: his control over psi skills became finer, making the evolution of complex constructs easier, including formations like the airship battle group.

In the past, even with sample data in the "Physical Evolution Database," accomplishing a tenth would have been exhausting.

Mr. Brown said, distressed, "It's been wasted, wasted!"

If it was going to be fed to a bird, he would rather take a chance himself; as an S-class ability user, he didn't mind awakening another ability.

"It's fine. Xiao Jiu has had plenty of good things, one 'Awakening Crystal' isn't a big deal. If it likes it, I can get another."

This bird-dad was genuinely a parent, often providing resources for the bird's growth.

Without Chen Fei's unrestrained resource provision, who would have thought a mere Pure Light Sparrow could reach the Human Rank Sixth Stage?

"It's just…"

Unexpectedly, Heseman Brown felt his body grow heavy, collapsing to the floor. He looked at Chen Fei.

Well! He's collapsed too!

Staring at each other, they resembled two Monkey Kings crushed under Five Finger Mountain, feeling burdensome and unable to move.

Only Xiao Jiu remained nonchalant, happily hopping on Chen Fei's head.

"… Ridiculous!!!"

The S-grade space ability user finally uttered complete words, deeply emphasizing his astonishment.

With a strained head turn towards the ceiling, the Pure Light Sparrow flock continued circling and singing; the sudden gravity shift seemed confined to Chen Fei and himself.

The next second, weight lifted off them, feeling light as if losing their weight, floating upward.

Heseman Brown and Chen Fei looked at each other again, shocked to the core.

"This is absurd!"

"This is so unbelievable!"

The former couldn't believe his eyes, while the latter shared the sentiment.

The sudden gravity shift, if guessed correctly, was caused by that chirp.

The "Elemental Affinity Talent Awakening Crystal" wasn't wasted but had the ideal effect.

And it came from a Pure Light Sparrow. Who could believe it?
