I have to get lucky right away.

Chapter 358 Even smart people believed it.
"These are all low-profit orders. Honestly, the rich are hard to fool, and the easy ones don't have money. This business is getting harder and harder!"

Sitting in the flagship's main control room, Xunxing glanced at the transaction requests reported by the AI ​​and couldn't help but curl his lip. He had earned some extra money in the previous battles, so he looked down on these small orders.

After some thought, I couldn't help but open the Seekers Forum to see if there was any valuable news.

Just then, his encrypted terminal suddenly received a message. He didn't connect immediately, but waited three seconds until the ship's AI gave a prompt before finally connecting.

"Hey! Isn't this Brother Epidemic Doctor? Didn't we just part ways a few days ago? Is there any business you need to do for me?"

"No need for formalities. Is what you said about Shenxiao true?"

The doctor on the other end of the communication line didn't waste any time and went straight to the point.

Xunxing wasn't surprised by the other party's attitude; he simply smiled and said:

"Oh, you're interested in this too?"

“Unlike your main profession of business, my main profession is searching for the land.” The plague doctor’s tone was very cold, and Xun Xing’s smile also faded slightly.
"You're wrong about that. Doing business is just a personal hobby. I'm currently leading a caravan towards the Blue Lake Island Chain!"

"So the intelligence is true?" The Plague Doctor's topic remained clear, and seeing this, Xun Xing could only shrug and say:
“Talking to you is really boring. In short, all the information Shenxiao has shown so far proves that he is indeed a faith-based superhuman, but his methods don’t seem like those of a proper believer. However, I just received some information from the Woodnas family, priced at 3. Do you want to hear it?”

Upon hearing the price offered by Xunxing, the doctor frowned, not because he thought it was too expensive, but because:

"so cheap?"

"Well, it's kind of time-sensitive information. I estimate that in another two days, it will be common knowledge. And unless you're currently in the Blue Lake Island Chain, this information probably won't be of much value. However, gathering intelligence always comes at a cost, so..."

"Ding!" Before Xunxing could finish speaking, a notification flashed that 20,000 yuan had been transferred into his account. He glanced at it and saw that it was indeed a transfer from the doctor in charge of epidemic control. Xunxing immediately smiled and said:

"Great! In short, in the past few days, some things called Earth Fragments have appeared in the Blue Lake Island Chain. No one knows exactly what they are or how many there are. All that is known is that those who are lucky enough to get them seem to gain some kind of special ability, which varies in strength."

"Some of them have been captured by the local forces of the Blue Lake Island Chain. According to the confessions of those captured by the Woodnas family, these things seem to be the so-called 'tears of the Moon Goddess and the Earth Goddess combined with fragments of the land destroyed by the Sea God's destruction'."

"Its shape is roughly the size of a fist, a ball of light that can float on water. It absorbs anything that comes into contact with a human body, but it can be preserved in a container filled with seawater. In addition to superhuman strength, the absorber seems to gain some kind of knowledge or memory. However, the Woodnas family's interrogation methods are too crude, and the conclusions obtained are fragmented. To put it vaguely, it is a planetary history that has been processed by theology."

"Currently, there are offers of up to 20 million per Blue Lagoon chain, but there has been no record of any sale."

Listening to the information provided by Xunxing, the Plague Doctor nodded and hung up the communication without waiting for Xunxing to exchange any more pleasantries. "Hanging up so decisively? It seems the Plague Doctor is also in the Blue Lake Island Chain! No, given his personality, he probably already has a fragment of the earth in his hands! We just need to observe his actions to determine the authenticity of the information. However, given his temperament, even if we call him, he probably won't budge... What a pity."

Xunxing sighed, seeing that there was still a day's journey to the Blue Lake Island Chain, she could only continue to refresh her orders to pass the time. And as she had expected, the Plague Doctor was indeed staring at a glass bottle containing a sphere that emitted a moon-like glow.

His main area of ​​activity was in the Blue Lake Island Chain. If we're talking about timing, he even returned here before Feng Xue. This "Earth Fragment" was an auction item he discovered while listening to data in his daily routine. He initially thought that the term "Earth Fragment" was just a gimmick, but with the confirmation from Star Search, the authenticity of this item should be guaranteed.

"Let's give it a try!" The Plague Doctor made his decision very quickly, because the body he was currently using was just a cyborg created by the technology of a previous civilization. If it weren't for the fact that this thing could acquire superhuman power, he could have easily hacked a gangster with a neuro-compensating prosthetic body to do this experiment.

Out of caution, the doctor confirmed once again that his mental firewall was intact and that the ultra-long-range access unit from the previous civilization was working properly before unscrewing the bottle cap and reaching out to touch the sphere inside.

A flood of information flashed through his mind. Even though he was well-prepared, the Plague Doctor's brain, amplified by the technology of the previous civilization, was briefly overloaded. When he came to his senses, everything in front of him had disappeared. He was still controlling the android body, holding the empty glass bottle.

The doctor immediately opened the brain disk recording to check his memory center, confirm that his biological clock matched the real time, and that there were no signs of intrusion. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and begin to browse the information recorded in the brain disk.

"It can be basically determined that it is more mythological than historical..."

After reviewing his memories, the plague doctor immediately made a judgment, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. In the end, from the sea god to those native gods who were born from some unknown corner, their legends were mostly myths rather than historical facts. Because if we really consider historical facts, then there are very few gods who can truly participate in the changes of the world.

"However, given that it possesses authority over the Moon Goddess, and considering that Mau was manipulated at will by Shenxiao, its authority should suppress Mau in every way. Considering Mau's millions of followers and the accumulation of power over hundreds of years, this deity should not be unknown. Therefore, it can be basically confirmed that it is a resurrected ancient deity..."

The plague doctor, confident in his abilities, considered whether to obtain another fragment of the earth and send it to his main body, but immediately realized a problem…

"This ability doesn't seem to have caused any physical changes!"

The doctor seemed to realize something and immediately became tense. He examined the android multiple times and, after confirming that there were no physiological changes, his anxiety finally subsided.

He temporarily activated the android's AI-controlled life support system, waking up after a long absence from the life support pod of the previous civilization. Looking at his somewhat atrophied arms, he couldn't help but feel a little helpless—

"It seems I still need to practice a bit before I can unlock all the features..."

Thinking of this, he stood up, supporting himself on the edge of the cabin. The long-absent activity made him feel like his body was rusty, but as he raised his arm and drew a crescent-shaped arc in the air, a ray of moonlight fell on him...
