Chapter 120 The Pursuit

Bai Ye couldn't help but scratch his head.

Based on his past life's experiences, he wouldn't claim to have obtained all the first kills in every world, but it was at least close to ninety percent.

Regarding the Particle Energy Civilization world, Bai Ye truly knew nothing. At least, he was certain that in his previous life, he hadn't killed any of the chosen ones from this world, nor had he obtained their first kill.

"Particle energy, doesn't that sound like a branch of a technology world?" Bai Ye muttered to himself, then shook his head, "Ah, why bother thinking so much!"

What kind of world it was didn't matter; what mattered was…

Biometric Scanning and Computation System (Item) (Green) (Upgradable): Can scan biological targets within a 15-meter range and obtain the creature's basic information. Effects: Biological Toxin Resistance (can resist a portion of biological toxin invasion), Infrared Targeting (locks onto targets with infrared, providing auxiliary attack).

A chest plate, or, to be more precise, a piece of metal that clung to the chest. On its surface, there was almost nothing to indicate anything special.

However, there was also a metal mask.

On the inside of the mask, numerous circuit-like components could be seen, directly embedded within. They were exceptionally smooth, with only occasional glimpses of light flowing along the circuits.

Bai Ye placed the metal plate on his chest. It automatically adhered to his body. As for the mask, it had the same function. When Bai Ye brought it to his face, it automatically attached itself. But Bai Ye knew that the mask and his face were not in complete contact; there was a very narrow gap. Otherwise, given the completely different facial structures of humans and Predators, Bai Ye's facial contours would have made it impossible to wear.

After putting on the bio-mask, Bai Ye glanced at the Xenomorph corpse beside him and said, "Scan!"

Biometric scan initiated…

Biometric scan completed…

Xenomorph (Adult) (Deceased)…

Attributes of deceased organisms cannot be detected…

Bai Ye nodded in satisfaction. He had come to this place precisely for this.

Don't underestimate these few lines of data; they are incredibly useful in combat, allowing one to ascertain basic information about an opponent and devise combat strategies accordingly.

Furthermore, the Biometric Scanning and Computation System is upgradable. This means it can be modified with higher technology. Therefore, although its current quality is only Green, there's an opportunity to upgrade it to Blue, and even to higher tiers like Black, Red, and Gold.

As for the biological toxin resistance and infrared targeting effects, they were purely additional benefits of the bio-mask. Bai Ye didn't place much importance on them, but having them was better than not.

Simultaneously, Bai Ye discovered an unexpected bonus!

Five fragments of the God Stone!

That group of Predators was quite formidable. Even considering the current progress of the world battlefield, they were undoubtedly top-tier. Moreover, Predators possessed communication methods and, upon entering the world battlefield, had clearly formed groups, advancing together in dozens. This naturally allowed them to improve their strength more rapidly.

Therefore, it wasn't surprising for a warrior to possess God Stone fragments.

However, obtaining five God Stone fragments at once was an absolute stroke of luck!

Regarding kills that yield God Stone fragments, it's generally determined by the maximum number of God Stone fragments held by the defeated individual.

For example, if a warrior had ten God Stone fragments in their possession, killing them would yield a maximum of ten fragments.

However, this is just the upper limit, a theoretical possibility.

In reality, the number obtained is random, ranging from zero to ten. Zero means no fragments were obtained. Furthermore, even if the individual possessed no God Stone fragments, the outcome would still be a random draw between zero and one, meaning a maximum of one fragment.

Therefore, this is an event that heavily relies on luck.

Considering the situation of the warriors, Bai Ye believed that the Predators must have conquered quite a few restricted zones and killed a significant number of people.

However, because the Predators were numerous, it meant that even if they completed restricted zone missions, they wouldn't all be accomplished by a single person. Consequently, by the same logic, even if they obtained God Stone fragments, they wouldn't be concentrated in one individual's hands. Otherwise, given the Predators' overall strength, they would have secured at least one spot in the previous twelve major battles.

Therefore, in Bai Ye's opinion, the warriors undoubtedly possessed God Stone fragments, but not an excessive amount. The fact that he obtained five at once might mean he was very close to the upper limit of their holdings. He had truly been blessed by the goddess of fortune.

" Blissful, so blissful!"

Bai Ye couldn't help but hum contentedly. However, he hadn't forgotten his true objective. After humming a few times, he began to quickly survey his surroundings and then followed the trail of blood.

Although he had acquired the Biometric Scanning and Computation System, and his purpose for coming to the glacier had been achieved, the restricted zone had not yet ended. Moreover, obtaining more items was always beneficial, and the plasma cannon was quite enticing.

As for whether he could defeat the Predalien, Bai Ye didn't even consider it. At worst, he could use a Golden Gacha if things went south. A specified Gacha cost one God Stone fragment, and defeating the Predalien would yield two God Stone fragments, guaranteeing him at least one.

With these thoughts, Bai Ye left the mess hall and pursued the trail. Soon, he saw a Xenomorph corpse lying in the corridor, with drag marks leading further ahead. It indicated that another battle had erupted during the pursuit.

Bai Ye didn't linger and continued to follow the blood trail.

In Bai Ye's view, the Predalien had likely appeared.

Facing ordinary Xenomorphs, over a dozen Predators possessed technological equipment, experience fighting Xenomorphs, and team coordination. While not a complete stomp, they would have held the advantage. However, the Predators had lost six of their own, more than a third of their force!

Therefore, they were likely facing something more than just ordinary Xenomorphs.

Naturally, there was a high probability that they had encountered the Predalien.

Bai Ye mused as he reached the end of the corridor.

This was the mechanical area of the research team's base. Descending a series of metal stairs, Bai Ye saw numerous unfamiliar machines and a network of crisscrossing metal pipes. And…

There was still the scent of blood!

Bai Ye reached for his Zanpakuto, slowly drawing it out, holding it diagonally beside him, and cautiously moved forward.

About seven to eight meters ahead, the corpse of a Predator appeared before Bai Ye. It was slumped on the ground, leaning against a machine, with blood splattered all around.

Bai Ye approached the corpse and glanced at it, saying, "Indeed, the Predalien has appeared!"
