After entering the dark cave, except for Qin Hao, those combat staff officers did not have the amazing night vision ability of the Zerg, so they turned on the lighting equipment they carried with them.

Under the light, the hole was crooked, and they didn't know where it led, Qin Hao and his party followed the destroyer all the way forward, and after walking for more than twenty minutes, a staff officer suddenly screamed.

"I'll go! I thought it was a stone that was holding me back, but it was an energy crystal! The adjutant was holding a ping-pong ball-sized ghost energy crystal in his hand at this time, from the perspective of transparency, the quality of this crystal was good, the only drawback was that it was a little smaller.

"I'll go! Luck so good? The other staff officers couldn't help but cast envious glances.

"Hehe, when I get back to this thing, I can ask someone to help me build a lightsaber! When the time comes, I will ensure that the wind will die! The staff officer said with a smile.

"What a luxury! If I could get an energy cannon, with such a high degree of transparency, if I made it into an energy cannon, it would be much more powerful than the standard one! Another staff officer said.

"Hehe, I'm willing, you can pick it up if you have the ability!" The staff officer who picked up the energy crystal smiled smugly.

As a result, the group had not gone far before another staff officer picked up a small piece of ghost energy crystal.

"Haha! I picked it up too! "Although the ghost energy crystal that this staff officer picked up is not as transparent as before, it is already very valuable.

Since the physiological structure of the Zerg is that kind of thick branches and large leaves, especially the low-level worker bees and ordinary giant beetles, they do not have the dexterous hands of humans, so when carrying the ghost crystal, it is inevitable that this kind of "small debris" will be dropped, and their knife arms or mouthparts cannot pick up this kind of small thing, so there will naturally be some ghost crystal fragments left in the passage.

But these are small fragments of scraps for the Zerg, and they are also very valuable treasures for humans, although the size of these crystals is too small to be used for the production of naval guns, but it is enough to make individual weapons.

Especially the energy crystals that are good enough, they are treasures that can make lightsabers, and due to the scarcity of energy crystals, the combat efficiency exerted by making lightsabers is far less affordable than individual energy cannons, so only a few rich sons and special soldiers can afford this kind of equipment.

Therefore, these combat staff officers, who were originally insulated from lightsabers, were active one by one at this time, and the light sources in their hands were all shining on the ground at this time, and the staff officers who were originally watching around also became low-headed clans.

"Hehe......" Qin Hao smiled, this kind of small crystal fragment was nothing to him at all, and he didn't mind that his staff officers would take this opportunity to make a small fortune.

As everyone followed behind the destroyer, the combat staff officers around Qin Hao finally picked up the energy crystal, and the guy who was lucky actually picked up three pieces!

"Squeak!" At this moment, Qin Hao and the others came to the end of the ore vein, and the destroyer turned around and yelled at them a few times.

"What do you mean?" Qin Hao asked deliberately.

"Squeak......" The Destroyer pointed to the ore vein, and then to Qin Hao.

"Is this ours?" Qin Hao asked while gesturing.

"Squeak......" The Destroyer nodded.

"! Got another vein without blood? "Several combat staff officers next to them were crazy with joy, they followed Qin Hao out this time, not only did each of them get a little foreign money, but also got such a big credit, this is simply too lucky!

You must know that the main purpose of the human war against the Alpha Star Zerg is because there are a large number of energy crystal veins on the Alpha Star, so every time you occupy a vein, it is a great achievement!

"Sir, if you are promoted, you can definitely take us with you, it is really promising to do it with you." Several operational staff officers stepped forward one after another and said, none of them are stupid, of course they know how this credit came from.

It can be said that these operational staff officers who went out on this expedition did nothing, just to serve Qin Hao as an audience, and not only these combat staff officers, but in fact, the entire human army did not do anything, just released a missile from afar and bombarded it with artillery.

The war basically broke out between the Zerg, it can be said that all the hard work and tiring people of the Zerg have done it, and then they also gave a lot of benefits to the human race, and the reason why the human race was able to get this free benefit was entirely because Qin Hao's judgment of the insect swarm was accurate enough!

Therefore, when they got benefits and credits, these operational staff officers did not forget to step forward to thank Qin Hao.

"Hehe, this is the result of everyone's sincere cooperation, I just paid attention." Qin Hao smiled modestly.

"Sir, is this crystal mine ours now?" A staff officer asked.

"Sort of." Qin Hao replied.

"Do we still have to build a base here?" The staff officer asked.

"Hmmm! We'll bring the troops over in a moment, and then inform the fleet and ask them to send the engineering battalion over. Qin Hao nodded.

Then the group followed the destroyer out of the mine, and after coming outside, the destroyer even drew a piece of land for Qin Hao and them, and this territory with a radius of only a few kilometers just surrounded the mine.

"Although the territory is not big, there is a crystal mine!" Qin Hao's words were addressed to the staff officers and the battlefield recorder.

"Yes! We're here to fight and kill, isn't the purpose of these crystal mines! The staff officers nodded their heads as well.

Soon, under Qin Hao's order, the four marine divisions all drove over, and then arranged a defensive formation on the spot.

Subsequently, the news was transmitted back to the Seventh Fleet, Vice Admiral Cohen was overjoyed after getting the news, he originally wanted to open up another landing site, to be able to help the President make some political capital, but he didn't expect that there would be this additional surprise, a new energy crystal vein, this gift is too heavy!

"Tell Qin Hao immediately that you must guard this mine! I'm going to send reinforcements! Lieutenant General Cohen said.

"Yes!" The adjutant immediately received the order.

At the same time that Lieutenant General Cohen sent the engineering battalion over, he also sent two additional marine divisions in case of accidents, but in Qin Hao's opinion, this was completely redundant, because the Zerg army of Prince Naxin was still there, how could the Zerg royal clan who was driven away dare to make a comeback?

After Lieutenant General Cohen arranged everything, he immediately wrote a telegram in person, and the harvest of the front line was reported to the headquarters and the president, and invited credit for Qin Hao, originally opening up a landing point could make Qin Hao be promoted to another level, and now he has taken a crystal mine, it seems that it is not too difficult to let Qin Hao be promoted to colonel within half a year.
