In the next few days, Luke and Selina went out to play during the day and returned to Isis Base at night.
The blood orchids that have been blooming in the past few days have been collected by Luke into the storage space in batches.
After having taken over this base for so long, Luke has only come into contact with blood orchid extract, but has not obtained a live blood orchid sample.
Now that we have finally reached the flowering period of the blood orchid, of course we have to put it in the storage space and preserve it so that we can study it slowly.
Life No. 1, whose function is unclear, is rarely used, and he has the abilities of Life Light Dagger and Life Light as substitutes for healing.
He could simply wait for the next batch of blood orchids to bloom in two years and then replenish the blood orchid extract.
What you really need to worry about is that the growing conditions of blood orchid are very harsh.
So far, Luke has tried various methods, including transplanting the plants with the soil, simulating temperature, humidity, and light, but all have failed without exception.
Blood orchid can only survive in this strange valley and cannot be artificially cultivated in Space No. 2.
He even gave two blood orchids to the half-vegetated Claudia, but she was unable to keep them alive.
However, judging from Claudia's mental fluctuations, she did not try her best, but just operated normally.
She was slightly surprised at the failure, but also felt a hint of gloating.
This means that even if she could cultivate blood orchid, it would definitely not be easy.
Besides, it is unknown whether the blood orchid she cultivated has the same effect as the original one. She might end up producing something like "Three Thousand Deaths of Yours".
These past few days, Luke took Selina and Doghead to travel around the area in circles, looking for a suitable transplanting site to expand the scale of blood orchid cultivation.
The search has not yielded any results so far, so the two men and the dog will have to play in the jungle for a few more days.
But Luke had already made his decision.
It will take at most ten days, whether or not a suitable location for transplantation is found, we have to leave. By then, the blood orchid period in the valley will basically be over.
Besides, he brought Selena out to have fun, not to be a savage.
No matter how much fun jungle exploration is, ten days is enough.
After they leave, Isis will continue to control the drone to explore the vicinity. The most she will do is to go at a slower speed and it will be a little more troublesome to confirm.
But Isis is not a human being, and is not responsible for other matters, so there is no problem of wasting time, and it doesn't matter if she goes slowly.
So during this week, they expanded their search range to within 100 kilometers, but still could not find a place where the blood orchid could survive.
On the contrary, the "small harvest" of dog heads is increasing day by day, and can be sold for 200,000 or 300,000 US dollars in total. It's really a shit profit.
In Lu's blacklist, if he cleans any gang boss in a big city in South America, the profit would be dozens or hundreds of times higher than this.
However, the most important thing about being a dog is to be happy.
Nugget is really happy lately, that's all.
That day, the two men and the dog went up the stream again, and Doghead was still looking for treasure everywhere.
When it found a rusty knife in the river and was proudly showing off the gems inlaid on the handle to Selina, a drone on low-altitude alert at a height of 50 meters suddenly sent a warning.
In the drone footage, large plumes of smoke were seen rising from the woods one kilometer away, which means there might be a bush fire there.
There are many forest fires in the Amazon, but most of them are caused by farmers and loggers deliberately setting fires to clear the forest for land.
This area is deep in uninhabited territory and there are no large rivers nearby, so it is unlikely that farmers or loggers are causing trouble.
I'm just sitting around doing nothing.
Luke put away the small yacht, and the two of them and the dog flew slowly in the jungle in their armor, approaching the fire to take a look.
Although it is slow, it is still much faster than walking on the ground. A distance of one kilometer can be covered in less than two minutes.
But there was still more than a hundred meters between them, so Luke and Selina stopped for a moment and heard faint screams coming from the fire.
The two looked at each other, activated the stealth function at the same time, and then accelerated to fly away.
Doghead was a beat slow, but immediately followed suit.
A few seconds later, an open aboriginal tribe appeared in front of us on the slope by the river.
The two of them looked at the situation in the tribe and frowned.
There were more than a dozen armed men there, beating and driving away a group of indigenous people, firing a few shots from time to time.
A dozen natives were already lying in the small huts of the tribe. Most of them were covered in blood and motionless. Only a few who were shot in the legs were screaming and cursing miserably.
Selina: "Do it?"
Luke checked the system's judgment of good and evil, and immediately found a bunch of Spanish names that had just appeared. They were all villains who were very famous or even black.
Without hesitation, he took out an MP7 from the storage space and pulled the trigger, firing a series of shots.
Over a hundred meters away, more than a dozen men with guns didn’t even utter a scream, their heads exploded one by one like balloons in a playground.
Selina said, before she even closed her mouth:
The gold nugget that just ran behind the two people:…
"Ahem, don't worry about these little minions." Luke coughed lightly, turned around and floated away: "Let's go and see what we can get this time."
He was not heading towards the aboriginal camp, but towards three small speedboats parked by the river.
This is the means of transportation used by the group of armed men to come here.
The things that the fallen men had on them were most likely looted from this indigenous tribe.
Luke didn't like it and was too lazy to look for it.
The speedboat must belong to this group of criminals, and their operation had just begun, so they had not had time to load the stolen goods onto it.
Compared to hunting down the criminals one by one, moving the entire yacht would undoubtedly save time and effort, and there would be no need to show up.
More than ten minutes later, the two people and the dog were back on their yacht.
Nugget hints at someone crazily with his little eyes.
Luke: "Okay, don't look like that. This is a joint mission, and the rewards will be shared equally."
The dog became happy and rubbed its head against his calf.
Luke: "Okay, I'll throw the stuff out and count it."
Although he would have a rough idea of what was inside the three small yachts once they entered the storage space, it would still be a bit of fun for Selena and Nugget.
It was because he scored too quickly just now and didn't give these two any chance to make a move.
There are mainly about a dozen ordinary bandits, and those killed by Selena will lose 50% of their experience points.
Gold nuggets are alien creatures and have always been racially discriminated against by the system and are never considered teammates.
Luke didn't get any experience points for killing any bad guy.
That's why Luke acted so quickly.
Now we can't count the spoils, of course.
When Luke threw the spoils from the speedboat onto the deck, Gold Nugget's eyes lit up.
A small pile of golden nuggets and dozens of sparkling gemstones are very eye-catching.
Selina just squatted down with interest and picked up a piece of raw stone mixed with pink tourmaline to look at it. Suddenly, her face looked strange: "These... should be very valuable, right?"
Luke didn't pay much attention to it and answered casually: "If you buy these gold and raw stones from regular channels, it will cost about 300,000 to 500,000 US dollars."
Selina chuckled and stroked the dog's head. "Gold Nugget, we just did this one job and it seems to be more than what you made in this week. This is the real treasure hunt in the jungle!"
The happy dog head was stunned. After a moment, he slowly raised his head and looked at Luke, wanting to confirm again.
Luke paused for a few breaths and consoled her, "It's okay. I'm sure you'll earn more than fishing."
Doghead: (つ﹏?)? No, I don’t want to listen to this!
