Chapter 16 Going to the Desert Crystal Mine as a Hard Laborer
After listening to the answer of the God of War system, Lin Fei thought about how when he first came to the prison, he carried out the so-called pit dad training virtual fighting challenge provided by the God of War system in his mind, and fought in the ring with the anti-dummy himself. The terrifying experience of tens of thousands of deaths that almost made him a vegetative person, Lin Fei's scalp tingled when he thought about it, and he immediately dismissed the requirement for mecha simulation training in his brain.
Now that I've listened to the God of War system explain the basic course of mecha control for several days, I really want to find a real mecha to practice my hands. However, because he is in Karl Prison, interstellar online games are completely prohibited, and as a prisoner, he does not have such a high-level treatment to allow him to surf the Internet casually.
Not to mention the real mecha, the prison master will never let a dangerous life prisoner fly a mecha in Karl Prison, even if it is not a weapon.
Lin Fei, who was sitting bored in the prison cell, decided to follow his fellow inmates to the spar mining base today.
There's a reason why the Celestial Dragon Federation chose to build the Carl Prison on this remote innocence star.
As early as a few decades ago, the original explorers discovered this planet that is heavily desertified but has an air system that can barely be inhabited by humans, and through exploration equipment, they discovered that the surface of the planet contains special hedron minerals needed to make the energy system of mecha warships.
However, this kind of spar mineral is very scattered on the surface of this planet, and the total amount is not ideal, that is, not too much, not much less.
If a large mining team is sent to the planet to excavate and mine, the profit obtained from the hedron is just enough for the mining team's travel expenses and the high wages of the mining workers. If you send a robot to work, the energy and maintenance costs are higher than the value of the quarried hedron.
At the beginning, for the sake of strategic reserves, the Tianlong Federation was unwilling to give up this energy spar mining planet that was finally discovered.
For this reason, the high-level finally decided to set up a death row prison on this cheap planet, and named the second planet the innocence star, so that the prisoners who were sentenced to life imprisonment could carry out mining missions in the harsh environment, and then provide the prisoners with some excellent food as compensation.
In this way, instead of paying high mining costs, you can build a few mobile hedron mining farms with a small expenditure, and you can run all over the planet to mine energy spars. You can also find something to do for the prisoners who have been sentenced to life imprisonment to repay the empire.
After decades of mining, the surface energy spar mines near Carl Prison on the Innocence Star have almost dried up.
For this reason, the prisoners who are now going out to mine will have to travel at least twelve universes in energy trucks to a temporary mining base in the distance.
After arriving at the temporary mining base, the prisoners worked continuously for seven days in the harsh environment of desertification to mine energy crystals, and then were transported back to Karl Prison by transport truck.
Back in prison, these are rewarded with food, fruits, cigarettes, and a small amount of alcohol for the amount of labor.
In the remote planet Carl Prison of the Innocence Star, a desertified planet, it is not easy for ordinary prisoners to eat fruits and high-quality food.
What's more, these mining is compulsory, and every prisoner can only work in the spar mine for at least seven days a month. In Karl Prison, there are many prisoners who have been sentenced to life imprisonment, not dying in prison, but in the harsh environment when death spar mining is carried out.
This time, Karl Prison sent ten energy trucks to the hedron mine to transport the prisoners. A car was crammed with twenty prisoners. There were five carts containing prisoners from the No. 1 canteen, about a hundred people. Three of them were loaded with 60 prisoners from the 2nd Biochemical Canteen, and the remaining two were loaded with 40 mechanically modified prisoners from the 3rd Canteen.
Fortunately, Lin Fei is the boss of the first canteen of the prison, and he has special care, and he was not asked by the prison guards to squeeze the prisoner transport vehicle that exudes all kinds of unpleasant smells, and after being handcuffed and handcuffed, he and the fifty heavily armed prison guards in charge of escorting him made a relatively advanced suspension personnel carrier.
The convoy was driving mightily on the desert of the Innocence Star, and Lin Fei saw a long line of sand and dust blowing behind the convoy through the window of the hovering truck.
After driving for four or five cosmic hours, Lin Fei began to close his eyes and rest, and the almost identical desert scenery outside the window could no longer arouse Lin Fei's viewing**.
Lin Fei heard from his fellow inmates that there was a group of stupid prisoners who rioted while the transport truck was driving, although in the end they succeeded in killing all the prison guards and gaining freedom. However, in the face of the emptiness, nothing but sand is the surface of the innocence star of sand. Without space transportation equipment, after ten days of wandering in the desert and running out of food and water, they finally returned to Karl Prison to surrender themselves.
However, the final result of these riots was that the warden, who was known for his cold-bloodedness, was ordered to hang them on dozens of wooden stakes erected outside the prison gate, and after five or six days, they were dried alive to warn other prisoners.
After this time, through the prisoners' mutual admonitions, there were no more prison escape riots during the mining and transportation, and even if there were prisoners who wanted to escape during the transportation, they would be stopped by other prisoners with their fists.
As for the heavily armed prison guards who escort the mining prisoners, their biggest role is not to escort the prisoners, but to defend themselves against the attacks of various wild monsters that exist in the desert.
Lin Fei made a smooth journey, and after sleeping twice on the hovering truck, he safely arrived at a temporary spar mine in the desert set up by Karl Prison.
After Lin Fei followed everyone out of the transport truck, he shook his sore hands and feet, and began to look at the mining made of black mobile metal structures covering an area of about tens of thousands of square meters in front of him.
Twelve high-powered firearms were erected around the mining site, and metal baffles were erected, presumably to prevent alien desert creatures from entering the mining site to cause damage.
Lin Fei walked into the mining field with two hundred prisoners, and saw more than a hundred prisoners with small mechanical auxiliary excavators waiting in front of him, in the corner of the mining field, removing the metal and bone auxiliary equipment on their bodies.
These metal bone aids were set up for manual workers in the early days of the empire, and wearing metal bones can increase their strength more than tenfold, but the disadvantage is that they move slowly.
These prisoners, who had been working for a week and were looking forward to returning to the prison, together with the prison guards who were guarding them, stood in a row and passed by Lin Fei and them, and stepped onto the transport vehicle that Lin Fei and the others were riding in.
After a few polite words from the two prison guards who led the team, the transport truck began to start, and as the dust rolled up, the last group of mining prisoners began to embark on the journey back to Karl Prison.
