Swallowing the Stars: Level 1, One Talent, Invincible Chaos Origin

Chapter 183, Zhao Yun's 'Detector'

The detector screen displays a large number of blurry detection results.

"Damn it, the interference here is too strong! The effective detection range of a large detector is less than a thousand kilometers!"

Sofia complained, her brow furrowed.

The cosmic environment of the Dark Tide Abyss greatly reduces the effectiveness of large probes; only micro-probes with higher technological content can be fully effective.

While miniature detectors have high detection accuracy, their range is extremely small, often only a few hundred kilometers.

"normal."

"Marquis Yanyuan said in a deep voice."

"The Dark Tide Star Abyss is dangerous not only because of its environment, but also because the Zerg love to set traps here."

Some of their specialized units can perfectly conceal themselves in this environment, only launching an attack when we get extremely close.

Jiang Ming, who had been sitting quietly to the side, suddenly spoke up.

"Captain, why don't you let me take charge of the detection? My detector is of a higher level."

Upon hearing Jiang Ming speak, everyone in the Flame Abyss Squad looked over.

"I've encountered this situation quite often during my adventures in secret realms."

Jiang Ming explained.

Everyone was stunned.

indeed.

The environment of the secret realm is extremely diverse, and anything can happen, which places high demands on the detection capabilities.

Because the environment itself is dangerous.

Given that Jiang Ming is a veteran of adventure in secret realms, it's not surprising that he possesses a high-level detector.

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you."

Marquis Yanyuan nodded. Since everyone's detectors were on, there shouldn't be any major problems if Jiang Ming was in charge of the detection.

"Ah."

Jiang Ming nodded calmly, seemingly unconsciously stroking the bright silver spear in his hand, but in reality, a part of his consciousness had already sunk into the Zerg command network.

On the vast, three-dimensional star map of the battlefield of the 'Mother Nest Will', the 'Dark Tide Star Abyss' region is also marked as a red area of ​​high danger and high uncertainty.

But as the supreme commander 'King of the Mantis', his access to information far exceeds that of ordinary people.

His thoughts flowed silently.

Their gaze fell on the area representing the 'Dark Tide Star Abyss'.

At this moment, the cloaking coordinates, status information, and even the preset trigger conditions of all Zerg units in this area are presented directly to Jiang Ming's consciousness with the highest authority.

Jiang Ming could see everything: a lurking Zerg squad carrying self-destructing stingers, an exiled tower hive capable of instantly deploying teleportation traps, and so on.

……

Dark Tide Star Abyss, as its name suggests, is a space like a turbulent ocean, filled with chaotic energy storms, distorted gravitational fields, and intermittently appearing miniature wormholes.

Visible celestial debris has been eroded into bizarre shapes, like silent tombstones in the universe.

The Flame Abyss Squad's spaceship navigated cautiously, with Sophia and the other team members nervously watching the detector screen, as the effective detection range was compressed to its limit.

"Coordinates KJ-889.32, B112.75, S09.18, approximately 8000 kilometers away. There are residual high-intensity energy reactions, suggesting a recent battle."

Jiang Ming's calm voice rang out in the lounge, giving out precise coordinates.

"8000 kilometers? Your probe can see that far?"

The rock giant exclaimed, his detector still only showed a blur.

"It has been specially modified to be more resistant to environmental interference from the 'Dark Tide Star Abyss'."

Jiang Ming explained casually, his gaze still fixed on the gleaming silver spear in his hand, as if he had only done a trivial matter.

A hint of surprise flashed in Marquis Yanyuan's eyes, but he did not ask any further questions and immediately gave the order.

"Avoid this area."

The spaceship nimbly turned, avoiding the potentially dangerous energy turbulence zone. The rest of the voyage became almost a solo performance by Jiang Ming.

"KJ-888.01, B110.59, S08.92, Anomaly in spatial folding detected. It is recommended to increase altitude to avoid it."

"KJ-898.11, A440.79, D18.22, has a disguised meteorite, internal life activity, and is a Zerg 'mimicry lurker'."

"Attention, KJ-871.44, D774.39, E28.43, there is an unstable wormhole that will briefly open in 3.72 seconds of standard time. A small Zerg transport convoy is passing through the other juncture; they have not spotted us."

Jiang Ming's reporting was outrageously accurate; he not only pointed out dangers but also occasionally "coincidentally" spotted some seemingly tempting and vulnerable prey.

The precise evasions and occasional 'surprise' discoveries gradually transformed the members of the Flame Abyss Squad from initial astonishment to numbness and ecstasy.

"My God!!! Champion Marquis, your detector is amazing!"

Sofia's beautiful eyes shone.

"This isn't sailing in a dangerous zone, it's like taking a walk in your own backyard, and you might even find some treasure along the way!"

"Just luck."

Jiang Ming smiled slightly.

As Marquis Yan Yuan looked at Jiang Ming, the doubt in his heart resurfaced, but it was quickly dispelled by the continuous good fortune.

Guided by Jiang Ming's 'super detector', the Flame Abyss Squad perfectly avoided all the hidden Zerg traps and dangerous environments, and instead 'coincidentally' stumbled upon several lone Zerg Alliance squads or transport teams that were carrying resources and had weak defenses.

The battle was a foregone conclusion.

Marquis Yanyuan has now been officially granted the title of Marquis, and has even made significant progress since then.

With the team members working together seamlessly, the battle ended before Jiang Ming, the newly appointed Marquis, could even reveal his true strength.

"Haha, we're rich! This batch of 'silicon crystals' has such high energy purity!"

"Although this insect crystal is only of ordinary immortal grade, it has great research value and will earn you considerable military merit!"

"Champion Marquis, you are truly our lucky star!"

The team members excitedly counted their spoils, and their attitude towards Jiang Ming grew increasingly warm and respectful.

Marquis Yan Yuan also smiled; the team's safety and gains far exceeded expectations. She looked at Jiang Ming and said earnestly.

"Zhao Yun, we owe you a lot this time. Your joining is a stroke of luck for our Flame Abyss Squad."

"Captain, you flatter me. We're just looking out for each other."

Jiang Mingqian responded politely, but his heart remained calm and undisturbed.

All of this was naturally the work of his 'King of the Mantis' commander.

From a commander's perspective, all of this is almost like strolling through one's own backyard.

Those 'resource points' were just a tiny, insignificant point on the map he could see.

……

The voyage through the Dark Tide Star Abyss lasted for several days.

The Flame Abyss Squad reaped huge rewards and had an unscathed journey, with their morale soaring to new heights.

"At this rate, the rewards from this mission will definitely be the highest since we entered the second Zerg battlefield!"

Sofia was excitedly calculating.

"Don't be careless."

Although Marquis Yanyuan was pleased, he remained vigilant.

"We haven't even reached the core area of ​​the Dark Tide Star Abyss yet. It's said that there are important Zerg strongholds there, and the danger level will skyrocket."

She looked at Jiang Ming.

"Zhao Yun, can your detector maintain this level of effectiveness in the core area?"

Jiang Ming pondered for a moment.

"The interference in the core area will definitely be stronger, but it should still be kept within a certain range. However, we need to be more careful."

The Zerg forces in the core area are more densely packed and powerful, and many of them are truly important units. It would be strange if they could maintain this level of efficiency.
