Chapter 157 Mine Road
Virgil slowly sat beside Sima Weiweaving, and Sima Weiweaving had a temperament that did not match his age. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Sad?"
"A little ......" Sima Weizhi nodded, "Uncle, do you say that no one in this world can be trusted?" β
"It hurts!"
Virgil withdrew his hand and knocked on Sima Wei's head, and said helplessly: "What do you think at a young age, is it because you have inherited a beauty that does not belong to your age, so you have become a little nervous?" β
"Uncle, I'm serious!" Sima Weizhi was quite dissatisfied, covering his forehead, "Uncle, don't you think, why did I want to be born in such a big family?" If I had been born in an ordinary family, maybe I would have grown up very ordinary, so Izumi would have been fine, right? β
"But in this case, you have to run for your daily life, ordinary people have the suffering of ordinary people, and the superior has the suffering of the superior, we can't choose our origin, all we can do is decide what kind of life we can live in the future." Virgil had no choice but to start making chicken soup, after all, the little girl named Sima Weizhi in front of him gave Virgil a good sense, so Virgil didn't plan to let this little girl lose hope in life like this.
"Uncle, what you said is very simple, but how many people in this world are living involuntarily?" Sima Weizhi sighed helplessly, "Uncle, don't you have anything to regret?" β
"Yes......," Virgil nodded, "but I just know that regret is useless, and since I have chosen a path full of thorns, then there is no reason for me to go back and go through the thorns again." β
"Uncle, do you think I can still trust others?"
"Don't trust anyone else's choice." Virgil shook his head, in today's society, who can really believe in a person completely and unreservedly, after all, reality is not a comic, but who can say this kind of thing, because reality is often more bizarre than fantasy.
"Maybe someday in the future you'll be able to meet someone you can trust without reservation...... Virgil stood up, "Alright, let's make chicken soup for the soul for now, we still have quite a bit of work to do." β
"Really, uncle, you haven't said anything after you did it." Sima Weizhi pursed her lips and said with some unhappiness, but she also knew that the rest now was enough, after all, the person in charge of Shenshangquan died, and many things in the camp needed Sima Weizhi to do it himself, although it was said that she could ask the Sima family for support again, but this was also an exercise for Sima Weizhi, so Sima Weizhi just reported to the family about Shenshangquan's rebellion. What happened in the family now Sima Weizhi didn't know, and she didn't really want to know, she just wanted to deal with the affairs of this camp first.
During this time, Virgil has been following Sima Weizhi's side, although after the attack again, basically no one still thinks about attacking Sima Weiweaving, but after all, it is said that he has always needed to follow Sima Weizhi's side during this time, and Virgil can also give Sima Weizhi some advice from time to time.
The construction of the camp is still quite smooth, although there may be spies sent by other forces among the workers and police, but after seeing Virgil's strength, basically no one wants to do anything.
"This is holmium metal?" Virgil looked at the holmium ore he had mined, and most of the texture of the metal gave the same feeling, except for the liquid metal like mercury, of course. Virgil pinched the holmium metal ore with a strong hand, the hardness was moderate, and there didn't seem to be that particularly hard feeling, it was this ordinary-looking metal that could play a good role in inhibiting the recovery ability of the protogastrators, which made Virgil quite curious.
"By the way, how long will it take for the camp to be fully established?" Virgil raised his eyebrows, holmium metal ore is in hand, Virgil basically has nothing to do here, and now Virgil has some wants to return to his laboratory, and then hurry up to start experimenting.
"It's probably going to be another week." Sima Weizhi looked at the information in his hand, "Maybe it will take longer......" Sima Weizhi rubbed his brows, it is not a good thing for himself to drag on too long.
"What's wrong, what's wrong?" Virgil frowned, "Is it because of the lack of manpower or something else?" β
"There is no problem in terms of manpower, the most critical thing is the problem of holmium metal veins, although I don't know what it is, but there seem to be intestinal animals underground, and the combat effectiveness of the original police in the dark is poor, and the passage in the mineral veins is still quite narrow, it is difficult to form a large-scale enemy, and I don't know why those intestinal animals seem to have no intention of coming out at all, so they can only be cleaned up a little bit, and the speed is quite slow. And what makes me a little suspicious is that the protogastus in this is a few ranks, after all, an aragula that can be entrenched in holmium metal veins will definitely not be a simple protogastrator. "Sima Weizhi really regrets why he chose this task to come to gild, although he said that he found a traitor, but now these things make Sima Weizhi feel really a little bitter.
Virgil thought for a moment, and had some interest in the current situation of holmium metal veins, the appearance of a large number of gastroids, and the level is unknown, could it be another humanized gastroid? If it really was, Virgil wanted to see if it was possible to go down and see for himself. Two different anthropomorphic gastroids were of considerable use to Virgil's research, and perhaps Virgil would be able to thoroughly uncover the secrets of archelate evolution.
"You'd like to check it out?" Sima Weizhi actually thought about whether he could let Virgil go in to deal with the protozoa inside, first of all, Virgil's vision must be fine, and then Virgil's strength is enough, but Sima Weizhi is a little worried that if someone attacks him again, he will appear a little passive without Virgil by his side. But after all, Virgil can't always be by his side, so Sima Weizhi thinks that even if Virgil is temporarily away, there shouldn't be any problems.
"There's going to be that." Virgil nodded, but to be honest, he really wouldn't feel at ease to leave Virgil like this, so Virgil took out a pendant from his arms. The pendant is quite ordinary, except that Virgil carved a magic circle on it, and then used a smaller magic storage as an energy source, which is basically able to block the power of a bullet, but as long as it has time to react, then it is enough.
Sima Weizhi looked at the pendant around his neck and was quite satisfied.
"I really didn't expect you, uncle, to have such artistic talent?"
"It's not an artistic talent...... Virgil shook his head, "Remember, keep this with you, as long as the energy in it is not depleted, then it will be enough to block a bullet for you......"
"Is it so amazing?" Sima Weizhi was a little eager to try, and it seemed that he wanted to take out a pistol directly and shoot himself.
"Don't try it, this thing is still relatively slow to recharge......" Virgil tapped Sima Weizhi's forehead, "and this thing can only block a bullet, if someone uses a large-caliber device, then it is estimated that you are in danger, so you better be careful." "Although a pendant is made, this is not the kind of anti-heaven prop such as a stand-in doll that can give people another life, so you should be careful when you should be careful, and you should still be cowardly when you should be cowardly.
"I see, but you're all right? Do you want me to send someone in with you? β
"Forget it, even if there are many people who can't keep up with me, then it's just a bunch of draggers......" Virgil shook his head, bringing a trumpet is actually nothing to Virgil, but if he really meets a humanized protogull, in case he is seen by others, then Virgil's idea of his own research will be bankrupt, and so far, Virgil has not told anyone about his research plans.
After a little more chat, Virgil came to the entrance to the vein.
"Uncle, if it's dangerous, quit first!" Sima Weizhi didn't want a strong man he had found so hard to find die in this mine like this, in that case, he really wouldn't have the slightest benefit from coming out this time.
"Don't worry, even if there are a lot of protozoa, they won't kill me......" Virgil then walked inside.
The entire mine was not built by man, and there are many naturally formed mines inside, and it is not speculated that half of them should be formed by the activities of the original intestines. Therefore, quite a lot of mines are in a state of extending in all directions, which is also the most headache for the mining workers, because often the police after cleaning a mine road, they find that there are other mine roads of the original intestines running in, so often each mine road needs a large number of guards, which also leads to the overall speed of the decline, Sima Weizhi let Virgil in this time is to hope that Virgil can clean up the entire mine road of the original intestines, it is best to explore all the mines, If the whole event is more difficult than you think, then Sima Weizhi may have to consider whether it is the right thing to build a holmium metal mining site here.
Virgil called Tim out after entering the mine, although the light in the mine was very dark, especially in some places where the workers had not yet reached, and there was not even light, but overall it did not have much effect on Virgil. It's just that in order to make it easier to search, Virgil still called Tim out.
"It's been a long time since I've come out to breathe, Jill ......" Tim stretched out as she came out.
"If you come out, you will definitely scare others, after all, this world is still in the realm of science, and your existence is still too magical......" Virgil spread his hands, "How is your vision here?" β
"It's barely good, it's not too good, but you can still see it up close."
"That's enough, you just need to help me look around for any life forms that resemble protogulls or humans, and if so, let me know."
"Okay, no problem, Jill."
Virgil and Tim explored the mine in this way, but the result was somewhat unexpected for Virgil, although he didn't know how long he had been walking, but Virgil and Tim didn't find any signs of life, just like all the protozoa avoided Virgil.
Virgil frowned, thinking about whether to use magic to explore, after all, there was no one around now, and if you used magic, on the one hand, you would not have to worry about being discovered by others, and on the other hand, you could find the original aragut more quickly.
As soon as he thought of it, Virgil took out a mana storage device, and after extracting the magic power inside, Virgil did not activate the magic immediately, but summoned the cage hand of the Red Dragon Emperor again.
"Multiplyβ"
Under the influence of the Red Dragon Emperor's cage hand, the magic power in Virgil's body directly doubled, but Virgil still did not use magic, but waited until the second multiplication to launch the magic of life exploration.
In the sense of magic, the whole mine is surprisingly quiet, but this silence is abnormal. Generally speaking, there may not be any large creatures underground, but there are definitely no shortage of bugs and the like, and the fact that there are not even bugs now only means that there is really a problem in the underground.
Virgil immediately used all his magic power to explore, and even the staff on the ground and the people who were mining appeared in Virgil's senses, and finally a considerable vitality appeared in Virgil's vision in Virgil's perception.
Virgil was immediately about to move in that direction, but was stopped by Tim just as he was about to act.
"Jill, why are you hitting the wall?"
Only then did Virgil realize that although his magic was able to explore the vitality on the three-dimensional level, it was only an exploration of vitality, and it had no effect on the passage of the mine and the like, and it became very embarrassing for Virgil to want to go over like this.
"Tem, please......"
"Don't worry, I also want to see if this proto-intestinal animal this time is the same as wo-chan."
