Abnormal crossing

Chapter 112 Look what I found? (Part )
call out.
The small box that floated out from the seat hovered in the air for a moment, and slowly swayed in front of Gu Wei.

Seeing this, Gu Wei subconsciously held the bottom of the box with both hands, and after gently weighing it twice, he found that the box was actually very light and had no obvious weight.

So he decisively changed his posture, picked up the box, turned his gaze to MeeMee again, and asked: "MeeMee, what is this box?"

"It's, to put it simply, a toolbox for picking up trash," Meow Meow also floated over to his side, pointing at the box and explaining, "There's a set of sensor patches in the toolbox. If you find something you want to take away, just stick the patches on it."

"Afterwards, the worker bee robots on the aircraft will find the targets according to the positioning and carry them back to the aircraft one by one. If they encounter some large objects, they will put them aside first and wait for Jin to come and weave some necklaces or directly take them away in the spacecraft."

Gu Wei looked down at the toolbox in his hand, and after opening the lid, he found some patches in the corner.

The patch looks like an ordinary round shape, all silver, and about the same size as a one-yuan coin, but its texture is not metal but some kind of soft colloid.

These patches are neatly overlapped into five groups, looking a bit like the vitamin C effervescent tablets on Earth. Judging from the thickness, there are probably about forty or fifty patches in total.

"."

After playing with the patch for a few seconds, Gu Wei picked up a small black box that looked like a walkie-talkie from the box and asked, "What is this?"

Seeing Gu Wei fiddling with the black box, a rare subtle expression appeared on Mee Mee's face: "This thing is also quite special. It and the rest of the firmware in the box are considered a set. It's called a spectrum analyzer."

Gu Wei put the small black box in his hand and tossed it: "Spectrum analyzer? What's its use?"

“No one can tell what it is used for.”

This time, before Mee Mee opened her mouth, the voice of Big Eyeball came from the translator on Gu Wei's ear: "This is a very scientific but also very metaphysical device. To put it simply, objects will give some feedback to electromagnetic waves, and the spectrum analyzer can find high-value items based on these feedbacks.

"Electromagnetic waves?" Gu Wei was stunned for a moment, then blurted out subconsciously: "Then isn't this thing a radar?"

"Tsk, this is much more complicated than radar." A slight electric current soon came from the translator, stimulating Gu Wei's ears a little itchy:

"Ordinary radar systems usually only capture the time domain parameters and Doppler frequency shift of the reflected signal, and the spatial resolution is also extremely limited. They are powerless against transient electromagnetic events with a duration of less than 100ns."

"But spectrum analyzers are different. Their operating frequency ranges from terahertz to sub-seconds. Let me give you an example. If you use a spectrum analyzer to detect an object containing gold, silver, and copper, even if you only reduce the thirteenth decimal place by 1, the spectrum results will be very different."

Gu Wei was stunned.

Is this so mysterious?
Meanwhile, Big Eyes continued to chatter, "Some materials in the starry sea are extremely valuable. Even a microgram can be exchanged for a brand new spaceship. These materials also have different feedback on the spectrum. Even the ship spirit can't figure out the complexity of their combination, not to mention that it requires practice."

"So many people in the star sea like to study spectrum matching whenever they have nothing to do. If a spectrum is exposed and good things are found, a lot of people will immediately want to buy it. However, no one can say for sure whether this thing is useful or not. Some time ago, someone privately chatted with me and asked if I wanted to buy a spectrum that can be used in a black hole. He said that there are many good things in a black hole. In addition, in order to avoid interference, it is best to enter the black hole in a state of extreme anger. So far, I have never received a bad review."

Gu Wei: “.”

This style of painting reminded him of the uncles and aunts who used to hang out in lottery shops every day before he traveled through time, and the leeks who traded stocks every day also seemed to like this.
"All in all, this thing is still useful for initial screening," Meow Meow added, looking at Gu Wei's subtle expression:
"After all, many people have fallen into this trap over the years, and the spectrum of most low-value items has basically been agreed upon, so you won't fall into this trap completely. Just use it as it comes. If you can find something good, Li Zi might even cook you a delicious meal."

"Chestnut?" Gu Wei was slightly startled, but soon realized something: "Are you saying that this spectrum analyzer is a chestnut?"

"Hehe." Mee Mee's lips curled up a little: "It's more than just an analyzer. Half of that girl's income is spent on researching spectrum. The one in your hand is the 796th version of the treasure hunting formula she researched."

Gu Wei continued: “.”

"Okay, time to get down to business," Meow Meow patted him on the shoulder and said, "Let's go pick up the trash!"

Seeing this, Gu Wei quickly picked up the equipment box and followed quickly.

Although this planet numbered T8097 has only been launched into the Blue Bridge Galaxy for less than years, and the frequency of fleets flying over it is not very high on weekdays, some traces of visitors have been left over the years.

For example, after Gu Wei and his companions took just a few steps, they saw several depressions in front of them that were obviously caused by people stepping on them.

Seeing this, Mee Mee chose a relatively flat location where there were at least few traces on the ground, and led Gu Wei to a small scrap heap at the edge of the ruins mountain: "Let's start from here. A novice like you can't expect to pick up good things. Just turn on the spectrum analyzer and look around. If you want to take off, tell me."

Gu Wei nodded at him, picked up the spectrum analyzer, and pressed the key marked with the switch.

Didi didi.
A sound of electric current soon sounded and was transmitted to Gu Wei's ears through the air medium preset by T8097.

Followed by.

A light curtain also popped up on the side of the suitcase that Gu Wei was holding in his other hand, with a large number of electrocardiogram-like lines jumping and flashing on it.

"The specific operation of the spectrum analyzer is very complicated. You, a newcomer, don't need to master so much." As the equipment started up, Big Eyeball also mentioned: "You just need to pay attention to the white and yellow lines on the screen. The fluctuations of the white lines usually represent natural rare materials, such as decoherent amber or zero element crystals."

"As for the yellow lines, they represent some special reactions, such as entangled state residues or dimensional field oscillations. These reactions usually require a high-precision environment to occur. In other words, you can at least pick up some expensive materials. If you are lucky, you may even dig out a complete module. That would be great."

Seeing this, Gu Wei quickly looked at the screen.

as predicted.

There are indeed two white lines and a yellow line at the bottom of the light curtain, which appear much quieter than the other leaping lines.

In addition, Gu Wei also saw a line of small words in the middle of the two lines:
[I would like to exchange my 50 years (crossed out) 100 years (crossed out) 300 years of being single for the excitement of the yellow and white lines ()]

Gu Wei: “.”

Then he took a deep breath, holding the spectrum analyzer in one hand, and walked casually to the nearest scrap pile.

Click click click.
The Anta sneakers modified by Jin Mo made sparse contact sounds with the metal fragments on the ground. As Gu Wei walked, his attention was quickly attracted by an object beside him:
It was a humanoid metal body about two meters tall, with a dark brown shell that looked like it had been etched by stellar winds for thousands of years. There was a huge wound on the chest armor plate, and the head had been torn apart by some violence, exposing the jagged pipes inside.

To call it a mecha is a bit too small, and to call it an exoskeleton it seems solid inside.

Seeing this, Gu Wei quickly stepped forward, reached out and touched the hole on the metal body's chest, and asked Meimee, "Meimei, what is this?
Meow Meow floated over to take a look, and her expression quickly turned uninterested: ".7/K692 Probe Robot, the most common scrap in the galaxy, there is no other."

Gu Wei withdrew his gaze from the metal robot: "The most common waste?"

"Yeah, it's not hard to tell what this thing is used for from the name," Mee Mee shrugged. "It's a standard exploration robot, with open-source technology and a simple production process. Since it doesn't need additional weapons, the manufacturing cost is even lower than that of a servant drone. It can be seen in exploration areas, patrolling unmanned areas, and large-scale interstellar wars." "Sometimes, in order to search for information outside the territory, they will even perform tasks until their energy is exhausted - anyway, the electromagnetic waves containing the information can be transmitted back."

"Over the years, this thing has become ubiquitous. You can see it almost anywhere you go."

"Is that so?" Gu Wei stroked his chin, "Then why didn't the Star Alliance clean it up?"

"It's a cost issue," MeeMee said, spreading her hands like a little bear. "Commercial planets and life planets will clean up the probe robots in nearby orbits by themselves. It's not worth it to deal with them in deep space. The work loss caused by opening the traction arm once is enough to produce several of these things."

"Plus, the damage it does to spacecraft is not as great as that of asteroids of the same mass. After cleaning them up once, a bunch of them will appear again after a while. So instead of spending the money, it is better to let them fend for themselves."

Gu Wei said "oh" with a long tail.

What MeeMee said reminded him of the marine garbage before he crossed over. There were so many bottles and cans that they could be seen on some uninhabited islands. However, unlike the probe robot, the marine garbage on Earth could not survive on its own.
Then Gu Wei thought about it, took out a sensor patch and placed it on the exploration robot.

MeeMee was stunned for a moment: "Are you going to take it away?"

Gu Wei kicked the exploration robot's thigh: "Well, it'll be a souvenir."

Although the exploration robot is not worth much, it is the first thing I have picked up. From the perspective of ritual, it is not excessive to bring it back to the ship.

What's more, its height is only about five times taller than Nono. Considering the carrying capacity of the Puleng Puleng, it is more than enough to fit this thing in.

MeeMee saw this but didn't dissuade him: "Okay, as long as you're happy - but I advise you not to be so casual in the future. Fifty sets of sensor patches are the standard quota of our ship. If you want more, you have to apply to the captain."

"Do you really expect him to find something good?" Gu Wei didn't respond to what Meimie said, and he added with a smile: "I've said it before, newbies, don't expect to find anything good, just be casual if you want to, but worrying about this and that will end up with nothing and feeling bad - do you think a newbie can have as much experience of failure, ahem, exploration as an old treasure hunter like me?"

Seeing this, Mee Mee curled her lips, put her hands in her pockets and walked away.

Big Eyes' words were rough but true, and Meeme obviously agreed with this view.

Gu Wei didn't care when he heard it. He walked around the exploration robot and started rummaging through the nearby waste pile.

Anyway, it's not my own wallet that I'm picking up this time, so if I can't find anything good, then I won't find anything. Just those two tubes of blood are actually not a loss at all.

Then Gu Wei continued to look through the books while humming a little tune, and gradually saw a lot of miscellaneous items:

The most common ones are various broken metal plates, some here and some there, basically all from damaged spacecraft.

Many of these metal plates carry strong radiation. If it weren't for the work gloves that Milo had put on, Gu Wei could now COS as a Fukushima resident almost seamlessly.

In addition to the metal plate.

The most common items were cans, wires, and a lot of cloth. The latter was actually a bit beyond Gu Wei's expectations. He had originally thought he would find a lot of plastic.
But think about it.

Plastics in the Star Ocean era should be easier to degrade, while textiles such as cloth will be based on materials such as nanofibers, and their ability to resist wear and tear will definitely be stronger.

"."

A few hours later.

Gu Wei has used up eight patches.

The cheapest item is of course the probe robot, and the most valuable is
A filter tip.

According to Meow Meow's scan display.

The filter contains some tobacco DNA that has not been recorded in the archives of civilization. Posting it on the Internet platform should attract the interest of many botanists.

If he was lucky, he could probably sell it for around one thousand Alliance coins, which was about one-sixtieth of the ticket price, and only two hundred less than Gu Wei's monthly salary.

As for other gains, they are quite average, and the highest price will not exceed two hundred Alliance Coins.

However, Gu Wei was not dissatisfied with this at all. The gains had exceeded his expectations. As he said before, it was not his own money that was being spent.
"The rented windowsill is covered with white frost, the clothesline is hung with wet wings, I put on faded sneakers to measure the street edge, and the earphone wire is fishing for music fragments"

While Gu Wei was listening to Tia's song played by Big Eyes, he opened another new set of waste.

Wow.
When a large number of bottles and jars fell down, Gu Wei suddenly saw a pile of bottles and jars that were pressed down.
Metal cylinder?

This metal cylinder made Gu Wei subconsciously think of the novice reward he got in "Mech Overlord", which was the energy cannon he got after the conversation with Luo Xue.

However, this cylinder is slightly smaller than the energy cannon, with a length of about one meter and a radius of about fifty centimeters.

Gu Wei subconsciously lifted the cylinder and found that he could carry it in his hand with little effort.

Then he looked into the cylinder for a few times and found that it was pitch black and he couldn't see anything: "Mee Mee, do you recognize this thing?"

"Let me take a look." Meimeixiu, who was floating on the side, came to Gu Wei in an instant. When his eyes fell on the cylinder, he was stunned: "Oh my god, why is it this thing?"

Gu Wei noticed the abnormality in Meimee's tone: "Is it a valuable rare item?"

"Emmmm, it is rare indeed," Mee Mee glanced at Gu Wei subtly after hearing this, "but it may not be valuable."

It was silent for a moment, then slowly said under Gu Wei's expectant gaze: "This thing is a..."

“Fiji Cup.”

Gu Wei: “??????????”
