Chapter 24 The Secret in the Meteor

The sky has become gloomy, and only the remaining rainbow light of the setting sun can be seen to the west, while the moon and some stars can already be seen in the sky above.

Before night fell, Li Ming jumped down from the top of the hill and headed straight in a certain direction.

Li Ming had already felt that location very clearly in the flying saucer just now. It was as if he had been there many times before and was very familiar with it. Now he was running as fast as flying in the desert. Li Ming, who was running down with all his strength, was as fast as A bullet was fired, but only the figures floating on the sand and rocks on the ground could be seen but could not be caught.

After a moment, Li Ming suddenly stopped. His face was not red and he was out of breath. He stood quietly in front of a large pit. This large pit was more than ten meters deep and twenty or thirty meters wide. It could be said to be very huge, causing such an impact. , it is precisely because this meteorite is large enough.

At this time, night fell, and there was no longer any light. The only thing was the bright moon and stars in the sky, but the weak light could not illuminate the earth. Li Ming used his extraordinary eyesight to see the meteorite at the bottom of the pit at a glance.

With a slight smile on his lips, Li Ming went directly to the bottom of the pit without any hesitation. The meteorite was the size of a goose egg, brown-green in color, and there were beads-like things on the surface of the meteorite.

These beads were dark red, like ripe jujubes. They were completely different from the previous ones. Li Ming reached out and took the objects in his hands. The weight was really extraordinary. It was heavier than what Li Ming got from steel slag. That one was several times heavier. Fortunately, Li Ming was prepared and used enough strength to prevent the embarrassment of being unable to pick it up at once.

Li Ming picked up the meteorite and looked at it carefully. He didn't look very carefully in the night sky, but Li Ming could clearly sense the power of the nebula inside. He smiled slightly, and then took out the star capsule he had just obtained. And received this object into the star bag.

After walking out of the pit, Li Ming glanced at a certain direction, then quickened his pace and ran away.

At this time, under the starry sky at night, three cars were parked quietly on the only road in the no-man's land, and all three cars turned on their lights at the same time.

"Isn't this boy Li Ming lost?!" Hu Kai, who was waiting anxiously, said impatiently.

Meng Lianyi glanced at her phone, then looked outside the car, glanced at Hu Kai angrily, and then said sternly , " You have such a crow's mouth, even if you don't lose it, you can say it is lost!"

Hu Kai had an innocent expression on his face and said , " Why am I like a crow's mouth now? I am afraid that he will get lost. If there is an accident, we should call the police as soon as possible."

Meng Lianyi's expression became a little anxious, and at the same time there was a bit of worry in her eyes. She kept looking outside the car without saying anything.

Hu Kai leaned back bored, took out his cell phone with his left hand and looked at it casually. After browsing for a while, Hu Kai couldn't help but said , " There is no signal at all in this shitty place. Even if you want to call the police, you can't."

At this moment, a figure from far away from the car window slowly approached. Meng Lianyi opened the door and got out of the car to take a closer look. The figure in the distance was getting closer and closer. It was Li Ming.

"Li Ming!" Meng Lianyi suddenly shouted.

Li Ming did not respond directly, but gently waved his arm in Meng Lianyi's direction.

After confirming that it was Li Ming, Meng Lianyi immediately smiled happily, turned to Hu Kai in the car and said , " He's back, he's back."

Seeing Meng Lianyi's excited look, Hu Kai just glanced out from the car door and said disdainfully , " Just come back when you get back, as long as you didn't lose it."

With that said, Hu Kai lay back down again.

Li Ming came to the car. Meng Lianyi quickly pulled Li Ming into the car and said , " Why did you come back? I thought you were lost. If you don't come back, Hu Kaike will call the police."

Li Ming sat in the car, smiled slightly at the two of them, and then took out a stone slightly smaller than his fist. This stone was the meteorite found in the steel slag.

"Look, what is this?" Li Ming said.

When Hu Kai saw what was in Li Ming's hand, he became energetic. He immediately sat up and stared at the stone in Li Ming's hand. He said in surprise , " What is this? A meteorite?"

Meng Lianyi was also instantly attracted to this stone. He kept looking at the meteorite with his eyes and said , " No, you really found it!"

Li Ming smiled lightly, then put the meteorite away again, and said , " Let's go home, let's study it slowly."

The vehicle started to turn around, and the three vehicles lined up and drove towards Z city. Hu Kai in the car looked at Li Ming excitedly and said , " I'm telling you, Li Ming, the three of us found this thing together. When the time comes, the money from the sale must be divided equally. I checked before I came here. This meteorite was sold by Lunke. It is very valuable. I think the piece you have is worth a few pounds. "

The value of meteorites is not only for scientific research but also for collection. The value is also unstable, but the bigger it is, the higher the value is. However, when it comes to weight, the one in Li Ming's hands is an outlier.

It is a rare celestial meteorite with high density and high quality. Although it looks a little smaller than a fist, its weight is not something that an ordinary human can pick up.

Meng Lianyi touched Hu Kai's right arm with her arm at this time, and said angrily , " How do you know money, money, money? How much money do you want is enough? Why don't you turn this meteorite over to the country? " If not, just keep it.”

Hu Kai immediately waved his hand and said , " Don't say it is so noble, it's a good price to sell it. I've already asked about it. There are many people on the Internet selling this thing. Why are they not so noble? Why don't we Sell?"

Li Ming glanced at the two of them and said , " I won't tell you whether to sell it or not. We'll talk about it when we get back to Z City, okay?"

"Okay, okay, no problem." Hu Kai agreed.

Meng Lianyi still looked at Hu Kai with contempt, and muttered , " You are so rich, and you still keep making money every day."

Hu Kai also glared back at the other party and said nothing more.

It was already late at night when we returned to City Z. Hu Kai's company arranged hotel accommodation. The advantage of power and money was clearly reflected here. Someone would arrange everything in advance. The same hotel, three rooms, and after running around for a day, Meng Lianyi He and Hu Kai were naturally exhausted and took a rest early.

Li Ming returned to the house and sat on the sofa, not intending to sleep. For Li Ming, sleeping or not was just a matter of energy consumption and would not affect his spirit. At this time, Li Ming was still thinking about the meteorite he had just obtained. Some can't wait to see how much Nebula power it contains.

It is naturally unrealistic to check in this hotel. Last time, Li Ming rashly extracted the power of the nebula in the community where he rented. Although he successfully advanced and activated it, there was also a huge danger. The whole city had a power outage and the community caught fire. Many electrical equipment were damaged, which can be said to have caused huge losses to the entire city.

This kind of tragedy must not happen again, so we must find a sparsely populated place.

Thinking of this, Li Ming had already made a decision. He immediately opened the door and walked out of the room. The corridor was quiet. The room where Meng Lianyi and Hu Kai were was not far from Li Ming. There was no movement inside either. They must have been too tired and just took a rest.

I came to the elevator entrance, walked from the elevator to the lobby on the first floor, and then left the hotel quietly.

Li Ming took a taxi at the entrance of the hotel and headed straight out of the city. After arriving at a certain place, Li Ming changed to walking.

City Z is different from City T. The former is affected by the geographical environment and is almost entirely located in the mountains. As the city expands, the surrounding barren mountains have been artificially modified and turned into part of the urban area. After arriving at the edge of City Z, Li Ming entered the mountains at a quick pace.

To the south is a mountainous area and to the west is an uninhabited area. In terms of distance, the south is the most suitable. After finding a secluded place, Li Ming slowly sat down on a boulder and touched the flat piece with his right hand in the pocket of his pants. The star capsule has been taken out.

With the control of his consciousness, the nebula on the surface of the star sac suddenly circulated, and then a stream of starlight shot out. At this time, the star sac was like a flashlight, and Li Ming pointed the starlight at the boulder in front of him, and saw the interlacing starlight continuously. Flashing, as if something is being printed.

In the blink of an eye, the goose egg-sized meteorite appeared. It was the one Li Ming found in the no-man's land.

After the meteorite completely appeared, the starlight slowly faded away. Li Ming smiled slightly, looked at the star capsule in his hand, shook his head and made a tut-tsk sound, and said to himself , " It's really amazing."

Li Ming put the star capsule back into his pocket, then turned his eyes and looked at the meteorite in front of him. He frowned slightly and was already thinking about something. He still remembered the last time he obtained the nebula power from the meteorite. That method was also figured out by Li Ming on his own, so naturally he had to use the same trick again this time.

Li Ming stretched out his right hand, slowly touched the meteorite with his index finger, and slowly closed his eyes.

A white light flashed at the fingertips, as if a button was turned on. The surrounding environment suddenly changed and turned into stars in the universe. However, this time Li Ming had an unusual feeling. His arm trembled slightly. A powerful force, like a bullet, entered Li Ming's brain with a bang.

This force was extremely strong, and different from all the previous feelings. It was as if his body was invaded by something. His right arm immediately lost consciousness, and Li Ming subconsciously realized: something was not right!

But it was obviously too late. He felt that some forces in his brain were colliding with each other, as if two giants were fighting. He had a splitting headache and felt as if his whole head was about to split, but Li Ming's body seemed to be frozen. Can't move at all.

Li Ming had no thoughts of his own in his mind. He could only feel a planet-like object hitting him repeatedly, just like a stone hitting a big bell repeatedly. The buzzing sound kept echoing. Li Ming could only say: He had a painful expression and clenched his teeth.

Li Ming had already felt the pain when he advanced last time, but this time it was completely different from the last time. Although this advancement was a good thing, the pain was too powerful, and it was simply not something ordinary people could bear.

The impact lasted for a while and then suddenly stopped. Li Ming's brain suddenly felt more comfortable, but the illusion in front of him suddenly changed, and a black shadow appeared in the starry sky.

The black shadow looks like a tree trunk as a whole, with two branches that are arms, and the dense leaves on the head that are similar to hair. The facial features of the other party can be seen above the trunk, and the lower body is completely a tree root. The whole image is like a big tree that has become a spirit.

But behind the black shadow were five slowly rotating nebulae. When he saw the nebulae, Li Ming smiled slightly. But when he looked at the black shadow again, Li Ming's face immediately became a little ugly.

The rotating nebula is the power of the nebula. There were three nebulae rotating in the meteorite found in the slag of the Red Dragon Steel Plant. After absorbing the power of those three nebulae, Li Ming was able to advance to the fourth-level civilization. The five nebulae in front of him are naturally the power of the five nebulae.

However, when he looked at the black figure, Li Ming looked worried and thought to himself: What is this?
