Chapter 486: Chance Encounter

After Lang Tianya dived out of the spaceship, he immediately condensed the space apron and rose into the air in two or three steps. If he is in a mining area of an earthling, he will easily find the location of the mine along the transport road. But in this world, people use tools like floating pallets to transport things, so they don't build a road specifically to transport goods unless they have to. It was the same here, he didn't see a road from the living area to the rest of the place. He glanced around him from the air, and saw that the flat top of the hill in the distance was not naturally formed, but had been artificially flattened. He looked elsewhere and found no other place involving earthwork of this kind. It looks like that hill is the mine.

He reached the top of the hill in a flash. I saw that on the top of this mountain that had been dug up, there was a big hole with a diameter of six or seven meters, and the inside of the hole was pitch black, and it was difficult to see what was going on inside. He fell to the ground and returned to his normal size, leaned down to pick up a small stone that had fallen at the entrance of the cave, observed it in the light of the setting sun, and then twisted it casually, and the stone turned into dust and fell to his fingertips. This rock has a lot of small pores, slightly glazed, and hard when pinched, apparently a volcanic rock. The appearance of this volcanic rock solved a question he had been having.

He heard Lao Mu say that this rune bone mine was formed by a huge soul eater body, and later learned that it was a soul eater who died on the gray star five thousand years ago, and he had a question in his heart. In just five thousand years, how could it be possible to petrify the corpse of a Soul Eater into rune bone ore? Now he saw the volcanic rock and understood it at once. This hapless monster probably plunged headlong into the crater in the process of falling, although its tough shell and powerful protective charm were enough to withstand the high temperature of the lava, but it couldn't stand up to the lack of aura replenishment here, slowly its aura was exhausted, and the volcanic lava finally invaded its body, flowing down the cavity in its body and then cooling, not only evaporating the water of the corpse, but also pouring it into a hardcore specimen. Then the prospecting company found it, and the miners continued to dig down the volcanic rock, forming the big hole in front of his eyes. Presumably, around the volcanic rock, it should be the remains of the corpse after the evaporation of the water in the body, which is the so-called rune bone ore.

He made a glimmer of light from his fingers, and when he looked at the backlight inside the hole, he found that the hole was surrounded by traces of manual chiseling, and there were several wedge-shaped grooves distributed on the wall of the cave, which were very spaced apart, not like they were for people to climb. Lang Tianya estimated that they provided a foothold for some kind of large-scale talisman device. In order to save internal force, and also to observe the distribution of the rune bone ore more carefully, he decided not to use the space ping, but to climb down with his bare hands instead.

According to his preconceived idea, after climbing down for a while, he would find a place with dense rune bones, and use the small horn program to enter the remnants of the body. There are no microorganisms on the gray star, the muscle tissue of the body will not be decomposed, under the heat of the volcanic magma, the monster corpse leaves not only bones, but also muscles and scale armor and other tissues after dehydration, if he can sneak into this mining area and swim around, maybe he can rearrange the muscles and outer armor of this body, and then combine them with the large skeleton program in the brain, and supplement it into a complete program system, which is a good way for him to understand the program system of the soul eater as a whole, It was even of great significance for him to form a systematic view of the talismans.

But as soon as he came into contact with a piece of rune ore on the cave wall, he immediately realized that he had committed another self-righteous mistake. He forgot that it was a world without aura. Here, there is no aura in the entire rune bone mine, and for the dead program without aura in the rune bone, his small horn program can't break them down at all, and he can't sneak into the rune bone mine. He is now like a seal standing on an iceberg, even with first-class swimming skills, but he is powerless in the face of rock-solid ice. And if he can't get into it, he won't be able to get the program inside. And there is no aura in the outside world, and he can't release the aura needle to detect, after all, the aura needle also needs to be replenished by aura to act.

He now has two solutions. One is to find a way to melt the iceberg. That is, he used the aura to moisten the entire mining area, and then he dived in. The other is to eat the iceberg little by little. He could use the Small Horn Program to combine his Bone Transformation Dafa to slowly eat the rune bones in the entire mining area. But neither approach is realistic. The circumference and length of the entire mineral deposit were more than a kilometer, and the amount of aura needed for such a large volume was not a small amount, and he couldn't get such a large amount of aura here. He didn't have the ability to eat the rune bones in the entire mining area. Even if all the compressed internal force in his dark domain is input into the mining area, it won't take up much space, not to mention that it will consume more internal force to dissolve all the rune bone ore.

Lang Tianya couldn't help but miss the rhubarb girl at this time. If only he could bring earplugs with him before he converted his mind to this world. This way he would be able to enter the game and ask the clever Rhubarb Sect Master for advice on what to do in this situation. He believed that Rhubarb would definitely come up with a solution.

According to Lao Mu's theory, at this time on the earth, he should still have that earbud on his ear, but he can't feel it now. "Do you want to push yourself and try to feel it?" This thought was suppressed by him. If he doesn't get it right, and then he takes his whole mind back to Earth, then he will lose more than he gains.

He retracted his distracted thoughts and returned to exploring the mines. He thought about it and thought about it, and felt that he had two advantages over others. One is that he has a large skeleton in his head, and he can roughly analyze the basic distribution of rune bones in this mining area. The second is that he has been in and out of a living ontology, and knows what the procedures of its various layers of organization are generally like. Combining these two items, he will be able to find a way to find the most important areas of the mine, excavate them purposefully, and figure out the most important areas first. For example, the location of the proprioceptive brain. What if there's a magic crystal or something waiting for him there.

After he thought it through, he immediately followed it. He went all the way down, crawling and sketching shapes in his mind based on the paths he had taken, and then comparing them with the shape of the large skeleton in his head to guess where he was now. It's fine at first, but the further down it branches, the more it branches, and the intertwining is dizzying. Slowly he discovers that he is once again mired in self-righteousness. He had a good idea, but when he actually implemented it, he realized how difficult it was. His sense of orientation was not very good, and it was a three-dimensional game of up and down, left, left and right, and it didn't take long for him to get confused. In the end, he walked out of the mine without realizing it.

When he came out, he found that the passage he was walking through was supposed to be a pouring passage. The people in the mine dug a very large pit under this passage beforehand, and then when they opened the mine, they broke up the mined waste rock and poured it into this passage, and through gravity they dumped it into the pit by themselves. The crater was on the other side of the hill, so he hadn't discovered it beforehand. Now that the pit was half full, he roughly estimated that the rock formed by the magma that had been poured into the body should have been almost dug up. He looked back at the passage, wondering if the exit was natural or destructively excavated. Could this be the excretory outlet of the body?

Just as he wanted to step forward to take a closer look, a figure instantly rushed in front of him from a distance, and a slender claw scratched his head and face. He bowed his head and conceded the other party's blow. The speed of both sides was too fast, and he knew that it would be too slow for him to change his hand position as usual at this time, first construct the sword rune program, and then turn the sword ray to attack the opponent. So he directly released a little explosive rune power and put it on his right arm, and then conjured a layer of shell scale armor in his right fist, supplemented by the sharp rune power, and then turned slightly and punched the opponent's chest.

The other party obviously didn't expect him to be able to dodge the head-on blow, let alone expect his reaction speed to be so fast and his counterattack to be so timely. With a "bang", Lang Tianya's heavy punch hit the opponent's chest firmly. Only then did he see the other party's appearance clearly. It was a Soul Eater, and the small horns on its head immediately let him know what kind of Soul Eater it was. The opponent's chest slumped downward as the fist approached the body, and the diamond-shaped scales on it fell to the other side along the fist blade at the moment of force to reduce friction. However, the illusion scales on Lang Tianya's fist also stood up instantly, stretching into the opponent's scales as much as possible to increase the force area and increase the friction.

One person and one monster were abruptly separated by the power of this punch. With Lang Tianya's fist power, even if the opponent is completely made of stainless steel, he can punch it through. Now the monster was knocked out by him, and its chest was dented, but judging from its expression, this dent was only the action of its unloading, not the collapse of its sternum, and judging from the swing of its chest scales, it did not seem to have suffered any injuries.

The opponent's scale armor is obviously more advanced than the scale armor he transformed, both in terms of tenacity and the smooth effect produced by the release of the mana power of the Supreme Blade program, the opponent is stronger. He put himself in his shoes and thought about it, and felt that if he was punched by the other party, he was afraid that he would be hurt a little.

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of three more monsters in the distance. He didn't have time to see them clearly, so he turned and went into the cave and fled.
