Chapter 388: Enigma

At this moment, the harvest basket is a large orange cube. Li Fushan walked to the cube, blocked the password input tablet with his body, and typed in a 12-digit password.

The large orange cube made a mechanical sound from within, and the shell changed instantly, a series of changes similar to the high walls of the variable doors of Base Dawn.

A door opened at an angle of 45 degrees diagonally upward, and the true face of Gauss Stone came into Wu Qi's field of vision for the first time.

The color of Gauss stone is changeable and wonderful, blue, emerald green, vermilion, orange yellow, light purple five colors are distributed in different directions of the same Gaussian stone, the intersection of colors is like the intersection of the galaxy, the gradient of color is extraordinarily natural, with the color as the base distribution of starry light points, it looks strange.

The Gaussian stones selected by the beneficiation machine vary in size, from the size of a fingernail to the size of a fist, and almost all of them are in an irregular shape, scattered together, like a sea of sand grains. A Gaussian stone has five gradient colors and contains countless points of light, and the picture formed by the thick and large Gaussian stones is not difficult for people's vision to accept because of the dense chromatic aberration, but a wonderful color refractive balance between Gaussian stone and Gaussian stone is reached, which strongly impacts the upper limit of people's understanding of beauty.

Wu Qi was so fascinated that he stayed in place for two seconds.

Li Fushan picked out a piece of Gaussian stone with a relatively regular shape and handed it to Wu Qi. Wu Qi stretched out his hand to take it, carefully examining and rubbing the Gauss stone.

The surface of Gaussian stone is quite slippery to the touch, and the texture is very hard. Wu Qi lifted the Gaussian Stone and turned the direction of each side of the Gaussian Stone. The glow of dusk is transmitted to the Gaussian stone and refracted again, and the light points in the Gaussian stone are like life, giving people the illusion that the light points are moving.

It is these bright and special stones that support the miracle of the survival of the Dawn Base, and it is also these stones that need their lives to protect.

"Mine Chief Li, can I take the liberty of asking a question?" Wu Qi's expression gradually returned to calm. No matter how special and beautiful Gauss Stone looked, he never forgot his original intention.

"You ask."

"Is the one-thirtieth Gaussian stone left in the ground of mine 130 worth the lives of all our guards and miners?" Wu Qi asked in a calm tone.

Li Fushan was stunned for a second when he heard this, and he couldn't believe his ears: "What did you say?" ”

Wu Qi put the Gauss Stone back into the palm of Li Fushan's hand, and his eyes did not have a trace of nostalgia: "Mine Chief Li, near the completion of the mining of the Gaussian Stone Vein, the threat of the plague species in the nearby mountains and forests has increased inexplicably, whether it is the number, the strength of the individual, or the wisdom of the leader, it is far more than the plague species in the previous two months. The Dawn base did not send reinforcements for three days, and I am sure you know what the reason is. To tell you the truth, my teammates and I were sent to the mine by Joestar's 'emergency order' to carry out escort duties, and it was the 'reinforcements' that were activated because there were no soldiers available at the base headquarters. ”

Li Fushan's face suddenly became ugly, he threw the Gauss stone back into the harvest basket, and the harvest basket automatically transformed back into its original orange cube with a flick of the button.

This move is a signal that Li Fushan's trust in Wu Qi has plummeted!

"Mine Chief Li, you haven't answered my question yet, do you think it's worth it? If I were to judge, I don't think it's worth it. Despite the importance of Gaussian stone, the marginal utility of mining at Mine 130 has been reduced so low that the risks taken by the staff have increased dramatically, and it is no exaggeration to say that the unknown danger has reached a level beyond control. In this case, it is the best choice for all the staff to evacuate the place as quickly as possible. The Dawn base is not only short of Gauss stones, but also short of manpower, isn't it? Wu Qi said rationally and calmly.

Li Fushan suddenly pointed at Wu Qi's nose and said menacingly: "You stinky boy!" The task assigned to you by Officer Ye Zheng is to carry out the escort mission, protect the safety of the mining area until the end of the work in the mining area, and dedicate your life to protect the mining area at all necessary times. And you are doing these investigations behind your back, which are contrary to the spirit of responsibility, with the intention of shaking the morale of the army. The mine manager told you that as a special producer of the mine manager, once you report to the headquarters, you and your team members will be removed from the Dawn base, understand? ”

Wu Qi's calm face did not have the slightest fluctuation, and a pair of good-looking eyes reflected Li Fushan's radical words and expressions.

Li Fushan said so many words in one breath, and his panting voice became significantly louder. Wu Qi looked at Li Fushan's face, immediately took two steps back, bowed his head and said, "I'm sorry Mine Chief Li, I asked an abrupt question." I hope you don't take it to heart, because I can prove to you with my real achievements and scars on my body that I have been dedicated to the task of protecting the mines. ”

"Hmph, do your job!" Li Fushan didn't want to pay attention to Wu Qi for another second, he straightened his collar, strode over Wu Qi's side, and left here.

After Li Fushan left, Wu Qi was the only one left in this area, Wu Qi simply raised his head and straightened his spine, and walked to the harvest basket by himself.

With his palm lightly pressed against the cold metal surface of the harvest basket, Wu Qi rearranged the information blind spots that he thought had articles behind it.

The first strange place is that Joestar sent "reinforcements" to the No. 130 mine in advance, that is, their group. Prior to this, there were various indications that Morley, as the captain of the mine guard, was "passive and slacking off". Morley thought that keeping the last seven days was a very simple job.

This is the place that Wu Qi had analyzed before - the intelligence gap between Joestar and the soldiers. Joestar seems to know that when the Gaussian stone veins are about to be exhausted, it will be more difficult to defend the mining area!

The second strange place is that when he mentioned to Li Fushan the danger that the mining area is facing now and the unworthiness of all the people staying, Li Fushan suddenly changed color and angrily reprimanded him, saying that he was completely wrong, and he should fulfill the duty of guarding the guards to complete the task. But in fact, Li Fushan was very aware of the unknown dangers that the mining area might face in the last few days, otherwise he would never have urged reinforcements to the base headquarters in a nervous tone.

Li Fushan also knows that when the Gaussian stone vein is about to be exhausted, the difficulty of guarding the mining area will increase!

As soon as these two odd places are connected, what was originally uncertain can be determined in an instant.

Wu Qi couldn't help but think of a few months ago, he, Guo Baibai, and Gao Yuan stayed in the Black Gun Mercenary Regiment with Wang Sheng, and took on a mission to explore the ruins of the G032 base.

The information they have obtained is limited, and what they are doing is an exploration mission that hundreds of mercenary groups are doing on the surface. But in fact, the most important and secretive mission regarding the G032 base is the mission of "transferring Macdonald" secretly carried out by Charlotte Leroy's Hell Lions mercenary group.

In the final analysis, it is the big men above who are afraid of the risk of the comeback of the giant Krees, but they must transfer MacDonald, so they use their hundreds of mercenary groups to explore the way for the team carrying out the real mission, clear the danger, and cover the knife when necessary.
