Xin Xiao gasped, his eyes swept over the mercenaries next to him, and found that almost all of them were injured, and their bodies and wills were close to their limits. Ｘ

He shook his head secretly, I don't know how many of these people will survive in the end?

However, the mercenaries who can persist until now are the top group of mercenary groups in terms of strength and quality, and the number of them is smaller, but it is conducive to command and cooperation, and the noise when advancing is smaller, and it will not attract too many rock giants, nor will it flee from the battle like just now.

Zhuang Xiaolin obviously thought of this as well, he really wanted to move on, but seeing that the mercenaries were demoralized and had not rested for a long time since they landed, he said: "Let's rest in place, deal with the injuries, and then sleep and recover." Raven, the two of us take turns guarding the sentry. ”

"Okay." Raven nodded yes, the two generals could still hold on for a long time.

The mercenaries took out some of the nutrient solution and drank some of it, treated the wounds, and then put the armor into a dormant state, turned off the helmet screen, and fell asleep. There is no night on this planet, the room temperature is more than 100 degrees, anyway, it is the same where you sleep with armor protection, so you don't have to bother finding a place to camp.

Xin Lin also lay down and closed his eyes to rest, he knew that it was safe for the time being, the energy of those red drops had been consumed, and there would be no more giants in a short period of time.

Two hours later, Xin Silence woke up from his light sleep on time.

Since turning on telepathy, his need for sleep has dropped again and again, and within two hours he is back to his peak state, refreshed and full of energy.

He stood up and found the other mercenaries lying on the ground, still asleep.

At this time, the people who were on guard around were replaced by Raven, and as soon as Xin Xiao stood up, he noticed the movement and turned his head to look over, and asked in a low voice, "Hongyi, what are you doing when you get up?" ”

Generally, when wearing armor, people will stop eating, and completely rely on the nutrient solution to replenish water and consumption, and the nutrient solution will be absorbed by the body at all, maintain metabolic balance, and do not need to excrete for a long time, and naturally do not need to get up to go to the toilet in the middle of sleep.

Xin Lin walked up to him and explained, "I've always slept less, and my strength has recovered. ”

"Oh, no wonder." Raven was skeptical, but didn't ask any more questions.

Prior to this, Raven thought that Xin Lone's strength could rank among the twenty in the mercenary group, but now he knew that he was definitely underestimating. Of the mercenaries who have survived so far, almost everyone has been rescued by Raven in danger, but Xin Lin not only did not get into danger once, but also helped Wei Lin, whose strength has dropped greatly, to survive.

And Xin Lin is the only one who is not injured except for the two generals!

"Shi Hongyi usually doesn't look obvious, and his strength is obviously far more than being proficient in swordsmanship, but it's a pity that everyone is too busy to take care of themselves now and don't have the heart to find out." Raven thought to himself that he could become the deputy head of the regiment not simply by relying on the Force to cultivate, but also had quite good wisdom and experience.

Xin Lin didn't know what Raven was thinking, but he could guess part of the content, and now that life and death were at stake, some things couldn't be concealed.

He walked lightly away from the mercenary's resting place, walked to the edge of the pit bombarded by the high-energy particle cannon, and searched around with telepathy, and after a few breaths, his face couldn't help but show shock.

There are a lot of red drops hidden in the ground around the big pit!

Xin Lin originally thought that as the giant was killed by the high-energy particle cannonball, these red drops were also wiped out, but this is not the case, they are still there, it seems that not a drop has been reduced, densely buried in the soil, and at least three thousand drops were found with a casual sweep of telepathy!

"Oh my God, what the hell are these drops that can't even destroy them with a high-energy particle cannon?"

The shock in Xin Lian's heart couldn't be described, this was incredible, knowing that the temperature of the high-energy particle cannon at the moment of explosion exceeded 100 million degrees Celsius, he couldn't imagine that a liquid as small as the tip of a needle could survive at a high temperature of hundreds of millions of degrees!

However, these drops were also traumatized after being bombarded by the particle cannon, and the energy contained in them was almost depleted, and they fell into a deep dormancy, motionless, unable to hide deeper underground, and even a small part of the droplets were directly exposed to the ground and exposed to sunlight.

Xin Lin walked around the pit casually and found dozens of drops falling to the ground.

Of course, the droplets are so small that they are about the same as dust, and if they were not known in advance, no one would be able to detect the anomaly even if they were exposed to the ground.

Xin Silence walked up the edge of the pit, telepathically searched inch by inch, and soon found a drop the size of a sesame seed at the core of the lava giant, which was mixed in a piece of soil, slowly absorbing the heat energy from the sun. He walked closer and looked down at the droplets, and sighed in his heart, just such a small thing shaped a ten-meter-tall lava giant, chasing everyone into a mess.

At the moment, the drop was completely motionless, its energy was depleted, and it looked like ordinary gravel.

"Collect this thing, if you can leave it in the future and hand it over to the researchers to study, maybe there will be a discovery."

Xin Lone's telepathy swept away from Raven's body, and Raven in the distance did not pay attention to his actions, and was closing his eyes to recuperate. He looked up at the sky and knew that the reconnaissance satellite in the sky must have locked on to this area.

But this didn't bother him, he squatted down and reached out into the ground, and with a thought, an alloy bottle was taken out of the subspace, appeared directly in the hands of the ground, and put all the soil with red drops into the bottle, and then put it back into the subspace.

The whole process was less than half a second, and after doing all this, Xin Lin grabbed a handful of soil and held it up, pretended to observe it for a while, and sprinkled it casually.

In the subspace, the red droplet could not absorb the heat and began to move in the bottle, but because of the depletion of energy, it even moved very slowly, let alone broke through the shackles of the alloy bottle.

Xin Lin got up and returned to Raven's side, sat down and continued to rest.

A few hours later, the mercenaries woke up one after another, formed their team and continued to set off.

The first part of the road was particularly smooth, and the rock giants that were originally hidden underground were all wiped out by that cannon and became a safe place, and no giants would appear if they walked casually. On the way, when passing by the corpses of those mercenaries, everyone was silent, took the intact armored battery and nutrient solution, hurriedly buried it on the spot, and turned to leave.

It wasn't long before the team reached the edge of the lava river again, and everyone's faces became nervous, for fear that another lava giant would emerge.

Thankfully, the lava giants didn't appear.

The magma river is more than ten meters wide, but not very deep, and a few boulders were moved into the river to form a temporary bridge, and the team passed easily.

After crossing the river, the team's advance slowed down, and everyone was at risk and lightened.

Even so, they still woke up a few rock giants from time to time, but they were all solved by the two generals as quickly as possible, without causing much movement.

As the team progressed, everyone gradually found some experience, and knew that it was necessary to avoid places where the heat was concentrated, especially magma rivers, and to try to avoid them by taking a different path as much as possible, and quietly crossing from the narrowest places, even if it was slow, and not to make a single sound.

Coupled with Xin Lone's intentional or unintentional guidance, the team rarely encountered great danger again.

All the way to the north, two or three hundred kilometers a day, ten days later, the journey is halfway through, and we reach the high latitudes of the planet's northern hemisphere. If you don't take a detour to avoid the lava river often, the team can be even faster.

During this period, the battleship in orbit airdropped two supplies through the autonomous fighter plane, and the two fighters did not return, and when they entered the shielding force field, they lost control and crashed after delivering supplies.

At the same time, the fighter also brought news, the battleship suffered huge losses, that laser beam not only completely destroyed the main gun, but also killed more than a hundred crew members, many internal systems of the battleship were damaged and out of order, and they were being repaired, and it was not yet certain whether the warped engine could be repaired.

Ships could not provide more help on the ground other than airdropping supplies. This bad news cast a shadow over everyone's hearts, and everything was left to themselves.

On this day, the team entered a long canyon.

Not long after entering, Xin Lin sensed that something was wrong, there were very few red drops in the underground of the canyon, and occasionally one or two drops were also exhausted and could no longer form rock giants.

He couldn't help but take a closer look at this canyon, which stretched for more than ten kilometers from south to north, and was two or three thousand meters wide at the widest point in the middle, with cliffs on both sides, and gravel scattered everywhere underneath, not much different from the rest of the planet.

After walking cautiously in the canyon for more than ten minutes, everyone also found an abnormality, and looked at each other one by one, but they did not dare to make a sound, for fear that if they spoke, they would attract rock giants.

This has happened several times.

Zhuang Xiaolin's face was also full of caution, his sharp eyes scanned back and forth in the canyon, and suddenly he made a pause, and his eyes stayed on the cliff wall in the middle of the canyon, where there was a crescent-shaped symbol, which was deeply carved into the stone wall, and at a glance he knew that it was not naturally formed. With a hint of joy on his face, he waved his hand violently and motioned for everyone to continue walking.

Everyone quickened their pace slightly, and after a while, they arrived in the middle of the canyon, and as soon as they approached, a figure appeared from under the cliff and rushed towards the procession, and at the same time there was a female voice, and the voice spread throughout most of the canyon:

"Zhuang Xiaolin, why did you come?"

Hearing the sound, everyone's faces changed drastically, not because they saw humans, but because they were afraid that the sound would alarm the rock giants hiding underground.

Only Xin Lin knew that there were no red drops in the canyon, and he seemed very calm.

The figure soon came closer, this is a human woman wearing power armor, about one meter seven tall, the red and white armor has left many traces of damage, barely maintaining air tightness, and the power is also a little insufficient, and there is a lot of noise inside the running.

But Xin Lin didn't dare to underestimate the other party at all, because he found that this person was actually a warlock, his aura was extremely similar to Feng Jinlong in the Kryptonite Hand Training Camp, and his head sent out a chill, as expected, she should be a second-level ice warlock!

Xin Lin also noticed that there was a meniscus-shaped weapon hanging from her waist, about half a meter in diameter, blue and white as jade, with faint ice patterns faintly revealing inside, I don't know what material it was made of, it looked like a work of art.

"Psychic weapons!"

Xin Lonely couldn't help but scream secretly.

The Ice Warlock stopped more than ten meters in front of the team, lifted his helmet and mask, revealing a beautiful face, his eyes were full of joy, and said again: "Zhuang Xiaolin, why are you here?" ”

Anyone can see that she has a shallow relationship with Zhuang Xiaolin, and she is the one who sent the rescue message on the expedition ship.

Zhuang Xiaolin still didn't smile, nodded and said, "I've come as soon as possible." Qi Ying, what's going on, what about your crew? ”

Qi Ying's face darkened, and he shook his head and said: "Most of them are dead, only two are still alive, I have frozen them, if you don't come again, I don't know how long I can hold out." Her gaze swept over the mercenaries, and then looked up at the battleship in the sky, and couldn't help but be a little disappointed, "You guys just come down like this?" ”

"Hmph, there were a lot of them, but they died. If you can be clear when you send a message, I won't lose dozens of brothers in vain. Zhuang Xiaolin's expression was indifferent and he looked very dissatisfied.

"I have a last resort." Qi Ying smiled wryly, "Come with me, wake up my crew first and then talk to you in detail." ”

With that, she turned and walked towards the cliff face of the canyon.

The mercenaries followed behind, accustomed to slowing down and not being fast. Qi Ying turned around and saw that everyone was walking cautiously, and said, "Don't worry, the sun crystal nuclei in this canyon have been cleaned by me, and there will be no enemies, you can walk around with confidence, and it's okay to talk casually." ”

When everyone heard this, their hearts moved, what is the solar crystal nucleus?

Only Xin Silent nodded secretly, thinking that the perception of the Nian Warlock was relatively keen, and he could detect the existence of the red droplet, which Qi Ying called the solar crystal nucleus, which should have been in contact with the stellar illusion in the droplet.

Qi Ying led the team to the bottom of the cliff, where there was an artificially dug cave, more than two meters high, up to more than 20 meters deep, the mercenaries entered the cave and found that the temperature inside was very low, the deepest point was close to freezing, and the cave wall was full of frost. At the innermost point of the cave there is a stone slab with a large strip of ice on it, and two humans, a man and a woman, wearing only close-fitting underwear, are frozen inside, their armor is placed next to the ice, and there is no power supply.

Everyone understood when they saw this, obviously because the armor power supply was exhausted and there was no nutrient solution to replenish, Qi Ying had to use the ice system to freeze them, suspend their body functions, and wait for rescue.

The low temperature of this cave was also created by Qi Ying with his telekinesis.

Everyone was impressed, the heart path is that the ice warlock can do all this, and change it to a warlock or samurai with other attributes,
