Chapter 168 Genetically Modified People
From the name of this company, it can be seen that this company is acquiring gemstones. Although most of the gemstone mines on these satellites of Tianmaxing have no industrial mining value, the gemstone mines on it are real. In fact, many people come to treasure hunting and adventures on these satellites, and these people often gain some gains, finding one or two gems, and then selling them to the acquisition company to make some money. Of course, there are also people who worked hard for a long time but ended up having nothing and not finding half a gem.
If you are lucky enough to find a gem mine that has not been mined and has abundant reserves, then this lucky person may even get rich overnight. There are examples like this before.
Therefore, the Tianmaxing adventure treasure hunting industry has been booming, attracting many adventure treasure hunters from all over the world who dream of making money.
After inquiring about these situations, Jiang Ping came to the Tianma Star gem acquisition company all the way. In fact, he had to go to Poole Star, so he had to look for this gem acquisition company because only this company had the interstellar spaceship to Poole Star.
There is a wide open-air square in front of the Tianma Xing Gem Acquisition Company. When Jiang Ping came here, there were people coming and going in the square, which seemed very lively.
There are many small street stalls in the square. Most of the things sold on the street stalls are of various colors, with different varieties, different shapes, and colorful colors, which makes people dazzled.
Almost all the gems sold here are from gem mines on various satellites of Tianmaxing. Although the Tianmaxing gem acquisition company acquires gems, they have the final say in the price. Some treasure hunters are unwilling to sell the gems they have found to have worked hard to the gems to the gems acquisition company at a low price, and are willing to set up a street stall here, hoping to sell the gems in their hands at a better price.
Tianma Star is a very prosperous ore star, with a very large daily customer flow, and there are quite a lot of customers coming here. As long as the gems are good, you won’t have to worry about not being able to sell at a good price.
After Jiang Ping arrived here, he did not rush to join the company to discuss the rental of the interstellar spacecraft, but instead wandered around the open-air gem market.
Along the way, Jiang Ping let go of his thoughts and swept through the gems on the open-air stalls one by one. But to his disappointment, he had already walked through most of the square and saw many kinds of gems, but he had not found one of them that contained fluctuations of life energy.
It seems that the gem containing life energy is indeed very rare and can be encountered but hard to find.
"Looking for death! Bang-ah--"
When Jiang Ping was sighing here, an angry shout suddenly came from his ears, followed by the dull sound of heavy objects hitting and the miserable roar of a person.
Hearing the sound, he couldn't help but turn his head and see a strong middle-aged man standing in the street not far from him, with his eyebrows and eyes furious, his face full of fierceness, his bronze skin emitting a faint metallic light, and his muscles all over his body were tangled, as if full of explosive power.
This middle-aged man is not tall, but when he stands there, he gives people the feeling that a ferocious demon came to the world, awesome and inviolable.
On the ground in front of him, a man lay down, spitting blood on his mouth and splattering all over the ground, his whole body was motionless, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive.
A very dangerous aura came from this person, which made Jiang Ping tremble involuntarily, and his face changed slightly: Who is this person and why does it make me feel uneasy?
Just as I was secretly shocked here, someone next to me was whispering: "That man is simply ungrateful. Even the famous 'ant demon' here dares to provoke him. Wouldn't he be impatient?"
"What 'Ant Demon'?"
"You are the first time here. No wonder even the famous 'ant demon' is not aware of it. This 'ant demon' is originally named Anderler, and is a genetically modified person. It is said that the gene fragments he consumes are genetic fragments of ants, so they are called 'ant demon'..."
...
Genetically modified humans!
Jiang Ping was surprised to hear it. He had heard of genetically modified people, but he had never seen them before. He didn't expect that today he would see a genetically modified person here, and the genetic fragments of an ant?
Never underestimate ants! In terms of relative strength, it is a well-deserved strongman. An ant can lift things that are more than 400 times its body weight and can also transport objects that are more than 1,700 times its body weight!
The secret of "Ant Hercules" is that its leg muscles are a high-efficiency "engine". This "muscle engine" is composed of billions of subtle "small engines". The ant's "muscle engine" uses a special "fuel", a compound with a very complex structure. This special "fuel" can directly release the hidden energy without burning and convert it into mechanical energy. In addition, there is no mechanical friction, so there is almost no energy loss. Because of this, the "muscle engine" of ant is very efficient, which can reach more than 80%. The change in energy can cause the long molecules of muscle protein to contract in an instant, producing huge power. Therefore, the ants can produce such extraordinary power!
No wonder this person made Jiang Ping feel afraid. As long as his genes are fused, he can easily use thousands of pounds of strength!
After the muscular man Anderer knocked the opponent to the ground with one punch, the fierce light looked around, then turned around and left with a swagger, no one dared to stop him.
Jiang Ping walked forward and came to the person who fell to the ground. He touched the other person's breath and was still angry. He took out a spare healing spray from his arms and sprayed it at the other person a few times to relieve the other person's injuries. He called the people next to him and sent the person to a nearby hospital.
This man escaped by chance. Jiang Ping would rather believe that it was the reason why the other party showed mercy. Otherwise, with the strength shown by the other party, he could kill the other party with one punch.
This person is a genetically modified person. Although he is strong, his brain has not broken yet. He knows that if he really kills someone in the street, he will definitely not be able to escape. No matter how powerful he is, he is still a flesh and blood body. Can he block laser guns and cannons?
People with genetic modification like him have no human rights in the federal government. If they appear on an immigrant planet, they will be rats crossing the street, and everyone will be beaten. Even if they are killed, they will be killed in vain.
However, in this Tianma Star, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. A powerful person like him is free and easy, and has become the target of everyone's fear and dare not provoke.
The crowd dispersed, and Jiang Ping continued to wander around the square. When he was about to stroll the street stalls in the square, he finally discovered something in a corner.
A fluctuation of life energy was uploaded from a small street stall in the corner, which made Jiang Ping feel excited and looked up in the direction of the energy fluctuation.
The energy fluctuations emanate from a lilac stone the size of a thumb. This lilac stone of unknown gem does contain life energy. This lilac stone looks smaller and has less energy inside, which is less energy than the jade pendant on Mrs. Chales's body.
The stall owner of the street stall is a pretty oriental girl with a fair face. Seeing Jiang Ping's eyes focused on the lavender stone in his stall, she knew that maybe the business was in the door, so she smiled slightly and said, "Sir, this is a good piece of purple obsidian. Although it is not big, it can always be made into a pair of rings, earrings, etc. It is the best way to give it to her girlfriend."
After listening to the other party's introduction, Jiang Ping smiled faintly, reached out to pick up the purple obsidian on the stall, confirmed the energy fluctuations contained in it again, nodded and asked, "So how to sell this purple obsidian?"
The girl pondered for a moment, reported a number, and said tentatively: "What do you think of five thousand federal coins?"
The other party's price was quite reasonable, and Jiang Ping did not bargain, saying, "Okay, the deal is done, do you want cash or transfer money?"
Seeing this business, the girl was also happy and smiled and said, "It's okay."
Jiang Ping opened a watch on his wrist. In fact, this is a federally universal micro-optical brain with a variety of practical functions, such as bank transfers.
Jiang Ping asked the other party’s personal account, and then transferred five thousand federal coins to the other party in the micro-light brain.
After a while, the girl found out through her miniature light brain that the five thousand federal coins had been successfully received. She nodded immediately and said, "Okay, this purple obsidian will belong to you!"
Jiang Ping put away the purple obsidian piece and did not rush to leave. Instead, he asked casually: "My name is Jiang Ping, haven't you asked the lady for her name?"
The girl was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly and said, "My name is Qiao Wei."
Jiang Ping smiled faintly and said, "Qiao Wei, a good name. So Miss Qiao Wei, I wonder where you got this piece of purple obsidian?"
When the girl Qiao Wei heard this, she showed a hint of alertness and glanced at the other party. Seeing this, Jiang Ping hurriedly explained: "I have no other intentions. I just want to know where this piece of purple obsidian comes from, so I will give it to my girlfriend when I get it. When my girlfriend asks, I don't know how to answer!"
After hearing this, Qiao Wei smiled understandingly and replied, "This piece of purple obsidian was found in a mine on Poole Star."
"Oh, Poole Star!"
When Jiang Ping heard this, he felt excited and said in his heart: It’s Poole Star again, it seems that Poole Star really produces this energy gem!
Standing there and pondering for a moment, he smiled at the other party and said, "Miss Qiao Wei, there is a business, I wonder if you are willing to do it?"
After hearing this, Qiao Wei didn't agree, but just asked, "What business?"
Jiang Ping said: "To be honest, I am planning to go to Poolexing. I wonder if I can hire Miss Qiao as my guide? The reward is easy to discuss."
