This is a huge mountain of metal ruins, where countless discarded machinery and metal materials are piled up, and the magnetic field is chaotic and the radioactive elements are dense.

The most important thing is that there is no trace of the existence of scavengers here! According to Du Mingxuan's observations, it seems that this is not the scope of the scavengers' inspection.

"Maybe it's because the radioactive elements here are too harmful to them!" Du Que said, these radioactive elements and nuclear waste can corrode all kinds of substances, even the steel worms and maggots of the scavengers can't resist it!

Du Mingxuan and Du Que have systematic alloy coating protection, which can also support, as for the strange iron egg, these nuclear contamination will not have any impact on it.

They used the ruins outside as bunkers, dug a way out of the ruins, and prepared to dig a hollow space inside to serve as a temporary base.

"My lord, there is a giant mechanical skeleton here that can be used as a base support point. "Du Que found a huge mechanical wreckage.

The wreckage was huge, a supermachine the size of a football field, I don't know what it was used for, its core was broken, but the main torso of its body was still preserved, and it could be used as a steel skeleton to support the base.

There is a mountain of ruins above the base, and if you accidentally knock down the ruins while digging up the upper part of the air, it will be a big problem. There is this large wreckage, just enough to support the ruin mountain.

The large wreckage was difficult to move, so they dug a base based on the location of the mechanical wreckage, reinforcing some broken areas and moving some obstacles.

Such a project, if it were to be done by a construction team on Earth, would take a team of hundreds of people and take several months to complete, but the speed of several mechanical beings working together is very fast.

Where there is a possibility of collapse, the strength of the support, etc., they can be measured directly and the construction can be carried out immediately.

"Roll around...... Haha, I'm rolling so fast!" Iron Egg is also helping, it has an iron ring on its body, pulling the huge mechanical debris dozens of times larger than it to move, and cleaning out the waste residue.

"It's really strange, we are making such a big move here, and there are no scavengers coming?" Du Mingxuan had been vigilant, but found no trace of the scavenger.

"My lord, I found an anomalous substance!" Du Que shouted, Du Mingxuan went over to check, and at a piece of wreckage, there was a pool of black unknown viscous liquid.

The liquid has an unpleasant odor that corrodes machinery made of special alloys.

"What is this?" Du Mingxuan wanted to discern its ingredients, but there was no information in his core database.

"This thing ......" Du Que was comparing the data, and suddenly, his consciousness changed sharply, and he shouted: "My lord, we are in danger!"

"What?" Du Mingxuan immediately prepared to be on guard, but there was no scavenger around.

"My lord, we must get out of here. I know why the scavengers aren't here!" Du Que and Du Mingxuan's communication was through consciousness waves, and the speed was very fast.

"This is the excrement of the 'Gold Eater'! It hasn't dried up completely, which means that the Gold Eater Worm is not far from here!"

When Du Que conveyed the news, he also passed the information of the "Gold Devouring Worm" to Du Mingxuan.

The Gold Eater is another mechanical life of the mechanical civilization. They don't have any conscious subjective consciousness, but are like wild beasts, living only to survive.

They are generally not under the control of anyone, live on the origin planet, live by devouring metals or ores, repair themselves, and under certain conditions, reproduce themselves. This kind of mechanical life is very hostile to mechanical beings like Du Mingxuan and Du Que, and it is very aggressive.

"How did they appear? It is impossible for natural evolution to have such a life, right?" Du Mingxuan felt that his cognition had been refreshed again.

"I don't know how they appeared, but as far as I can remember, it seems that on the day I was born, there was such mechanical life on the Origin Star. There are also legends that they were created by some people to kill us. In addition to gold-eating insects, there are other different species of mechanical life. Du Que said.

When he finished conducting the radio waves of consciousness, he turned sharply and fired a high-energy laser at one of the ruins.

Du Mingxuan looked along the place where he was attacking, and under the ruins, a mechanical worm like a big centipede crawled over.

It is five or six meters long, with more than a dozen insect legs, and its body can turn or twist at will, and the insect mouth is like a steel grinder, which can crush hard metal into slag!

Du Que's attack didn't work against it. The high-energy laser shattered one of its legs, but its movement speed was not affected in any way, and it was still crawling at a rapid pace.

"Roll around...... Ah, what a terrible bug!" Iron Egg saw the gold-eating worm and immediately rolled outside.

Du Mingxuan immediately cooperated with Du Que to attack, he picked up a metal cutting saw and aimed it at the Gold Devouring Worm.

The razor-sharp cutting saw of the "Zizi ......" splattered sparks at the Gold Eater's body, slicing into its body. But this bug is not an organic life, as long as its core is not damaged, even if it is disassembled into hundreds of pieces, it will not feel fear and pain!

One of the legs of the Gold Devouring Worm inserted into Du Mingxuan's body, easily piercing him. Fortunately, the mechanical core was not injured.

"My lord, be careful!" Du Que used a high-energy laser to cut off the insect's leg, then jumped up and jumped on top of the gold devouring insect, piercing the control core of its body with the laser.

"Bang!" exploded, and the Gold Eater was killed in place, leaving behind a broken metal wreckage.

"Good guy, this thing is too fierce!" Du Mingxuan sat on the ground, repairing his body.

The scavengers last time failed to seriously injure him, and this time he and Du Que teamed up and almost overturned.

"Woo(; ́༎ຶД༎ຶ')!It's terrible, there are so many bugs!" The iron egg that had just rolled out rolled back again, and when he saw the scene behind it, Du Mingxuan couldn't help but scold: "Damn, don't let people live?"

I saw that behind the iron egg, dense gold devouring insects were crawling towards this side, and there were at least forty of them, maybe there were still some that had not been detected.

A gold-devouring insect is so difficult to deal with, and these dozens of them are together, and in the middle of this inconvenient ruin mountain, the danger level soars directly to the highest!

"Mengdie, can you open the space door now?" Du Mingxuan hurriedly asked.

Mengdie replied, "Host, there can be no energy interference when you open the space door. If you pass through the space gate while being attacked, you will most likely be swept into the turbulence of space-time, and there will be no scum left by the space-time energy. ”
