Chapter 4 Attack on the Underground
Rumble!
Xia Yu directly rolled up the sweat with his sleeves, and was about to sit down again when he suddenly heard a violent rumbling sound.
Then he heard an eerie noise, a mixture of screams and machinery collapsing to the ground, and crumbling layers of crushed rock from the collapse of the mine.
"Damn!" Qiangzi jumped up from the ground and frowned: "Something happened, it's the fourth group! I really don't know if this group of security inspectors eat shit! Everyone calm down, let's walk slowly to the main tunnel!"
The other people were also a little panicked, and they got up one after another, ignoring the ore baskets and the road cars around them, and walked out one by one along the tracks, but the ore picks and minerals were all with them. In the event of a collapse of the mine seam, this is a life-saving tool.
"Stone, you follow me closely!" Qiangzi let the others walk in front, pulling Xia Yu to walk at the end, with a sad face on his face: "It's just the first day of work and there was another accident, this thing is a bit weird." ”
"Understood".
Xia Yu didn't say much, he didn't want to just explain here.
How can you be so hard-pressed as a dignified traverser!
Suddenly, there was an exclamation from the front: "Oh no, there is also a landslide here, and the road to the main pit is blocked." ”
"Do you want to go back, isn't there a cage on the second side?"
Hadron rushed to the front in a few steps, looked at the exit of the mine that had been blocked by some kind of broken rock, and knew that it would take at least an hour to dig it, and the longer he stayed underground, the more dangerous it became, so he said decisively: "Let's go, go to the second group." ”
Not long after, several people walked through a fork in the road to an open mine area, where more than a dozen miners had gathered.
"It's useless, the cage winder has been washed away by the force of the explosion, these damn silverfish!" Before he could get closer, there was a shouting and scolding.
"Oops"
When Qiangzi heard this, he was also a little blindsided.
Calm down!
The fourth group exploded, the road back to the main pit was blocked, and the second group was damaged by the cage - such a coincidence, all three external passages of his own people were blocked!
Xia Yu panicked, but forced himself to calm down. In an instant, he remembered the strange death of the unlucky ghost, this matter was really not simple, and at this time he had realized that a conspiracy hung over his head.
He forced himself to calm down, and he silently observed his surroundings, secretly raising his guard.
Of course, there are no source machines underground, and there are no mobile communication devices in this world, so they can't get in touch with the people above. But in any case, if this kind of thing happens, the people above should be able to react, and it shouldn't take much time to repair the stranding machine.
So most of the miners here, decided to wait here.
Xia Yu knew that if it was a conspiracy against himself, then the stranding machine would probably never be better.
This conspiracy hidden in the shadows has touched the bottom of his heart.
Before the crossing, he was just an otaku who spent mainly time in the laboratory, and it was impossible for him to come into contact with these dangers. This kind of killing machine that directly threatens his life makes him feel a burst of fear in his heart, and at the same time, it also inspires a burst of anger.
If you wait here, you will definitely die.
The air under the mine is not circulated, and there is a lot of dust, if you can't get out for a long time, it is a dead end, and you can't sit still.
"Hadron, come here!"
"What's the matter? if we hold on a little longer, someone will come to our rescue!" Hadron also believed that the people above could fix the stranding machine in time, after all, it was not a complicated mechanism.
Xia Yu shook his head: "Qiangzi, I have a strong sense of danger, I don't want to wait here to die, let's at least try other ways, right?"
"But there are only three ways for us to get out, and none of them work. No, the four groups that exploded haven't gone to ...... yet."
"Let's go!"
He couldn't help but think about it, so he directly pulled him and walked towards the fourth group.
At this time, there was already a lot of dust in the mine, and the road was covered with a steady stream of rubble that had been shattered by the violent explosion, and I was afraid that the longer I stayed, the more dangerous it became. Inside, it was a little difficult to breathe, so the two of them covered their mouths and noses with their clothes wet, and walked out against the dim miner's lamp.
In a short time, they reached a collapsed gravel site, and the mine road in front of them, which could accommodate about four people walking side by side, had been tightly blocked.
Hadron didn't talk much at this time, seeing Xia Yu's nervous appearance, he realized that it might really be wrong, and hurriedly concentrated on letting out his perception, and continued to probe through the gravel.
This is another function of perception, which can be used as a method of spiritual exploration, to detect the surrounding environment, which is surrounded by rubble and not fixed rock formations. They don't have a detection mechanism, and delicate perception is naturally the best means of detection.
"No, my perception is 3.4 meters, but I can't see through the layers of rubble in front of me. Qiangzi looked depressed: "We can't go over, why don't we try the gravel in the main mine?"
"Try again!" Xia Yu was unusually calm at this time: "This rock layer has collapsed, and the surrounding ore layer will definitely be affected, try it next to it." ”
The four groups were the first to explode, and it is said that if someone really secretly designed it, it must be a foolproof place, and then find a way to block the other two roads, maybe there are enemies guarding those two places.
At this moment, Xia Yu chose to trust his instincts.
Hadron didn't talk nonsense, and urged his sensing tentacles to probe the rock formations on the edge of the rubble and the sides.
"There is!" Hadron suddenly exclaimed excitedly: "This way, it's a bit empty, by the way, this should be a big corner." The passage is blocked, if only we could get through the rock formation here! It's nearly three meters long!"
Xia Yu just one word: "Smash!"
Hadron is a level 2 perception, and the mining pickaxe used is one level higher than Xia Yu's, and as soon as he pickaxes it down, the rocks on the rock formation suddenly collapsed.
But Xia Yu was not idle, he also released his perception...... A full six antennae of 1 star sense, heading towards the rock formation to detect two.
There's a play!
He couldn't tell what kind of rock formation it was, but he had noticed it when he smashed the mine before, and even if it was harder than most rocks on earth, it was not a tight piece, but it was filled with holes that resembled bubbles in water. Especially in the pure rock area, which is far away from the source crystal, the bubble holes are more dense.
And the place with dense holes is undoubtedly the best part to destroy.
Hadron can only release a sensing tentacle, and he can also touch some holes, and he knows how to hit the pickaxe where there are many holes.
But under Xia Yu's perceptual detection of six tentacles, there was almost nothing to hide in a small area. He gathered the six senses in a circle of more than a dozen centimeters, and probed little by little.
He soon spotted some of the denser, almost filled sections of the holes.
Yes, I have a limited perception distance, but the general direction is over there, and it is more convenient for me to find out where the next move of the hadron is.
He shouted to Hadron: "Wait a minute, you smash here next!"
"Huh?"
Qiangzi was subconsciously stunned, seeing that the place Xia Yu was pointing at was half a meter away from his own judgment, and was about to speak, when he saw that Xia Yu had squinted his eyes slightly again and used his perception to investigate, and the movements of his hands did not stop, and he went down with a pickaxe.
"Whoa!"
This time, it was really much easier, and a large number of them were cut down by the hadron pickaxe at any time, and there was suddenly a pit on the wall.
Xia Yu said again: "Next this way!"
"This way! a little further to the left, yes!"
"This way back!"
Xia Yu felt a little tired, after all, releasing six perceptual tentacles was his limit, and it had been going on for half an hour, and the perceptual cyclone he felt had begun to be unstable, and the feeling of dizziness in his mind had come to him for a while.
Facing crises one after another, he didn't want to sit still, so he bit the tip of his tongue and spit out the blood in his mouth.
"Go on, over here!"
After another half an hour, after Xia Yu rested twice halfway, and once again re-energized himself to investigate, Qiangzi finally wanted to open up this mine road that was close to three meters.
Seeing the last blow, the hadron went down with a pickaxe and directly pierced the last rock wall, revealing a hole.
Hadron was full of energy, and after a few heavy pickaxes, he finally completely opened the rock layer of the cave wall, and the probe went out, and sure enough, there were still infinite landslides on the side. If it weren't for the fact that there was a right-angled corner, the two of them would not have been able to move away from the pile of rubble.
Finally it worked!
Xia Yu finally couldn't hold on, and sat down on the ground, closing his eyes to regain his spirit.
......
On the other side, in the second group of mines after Xia Yu and Qiangzi left, more than 20 absentees were still waiting for the cage stranding machine to be repaired, but there was no movement.
As the dust in the air increased, some people could not hold it and began to try to find their way to the main pit. But they were limited by common sense and knew that the explosion was coming from the side of Group 4, and thought that there was a real large-scale collapse there, so they did not dare to flee there at all.
Finally, the thinner and thinner air made people unable to hold on and become desperate. Even though he knew that it was impossible to hear it from above, he couldn't help but shout.
"Help!"
"Damn, is there anyone up there, help us!"
Several people who went to the main pit also fell back into despair after frantically digging the collapsed and broken ore for a while. After a burst of physical squandering, they all gasped for breath, breathing in all kinds of dust, and some of their spirits had already begun to dissipate.
On the side of the four groups of mines, Xia Yu and Qiangzi had just turned over, and they were really going to take a break, when suddenly, a black figure appeared in front of them!
"Who is it?"
Qiangzi felt a little hairy, the man was ten meters away, dressed in black, and covered his face with a cloth, looking vigilantly at this side.
In the end, seeing that only Xia Yu and Qiangzi appeared, he carefully identified it, and the corners of his eyes jumped, and he was immediately happy!
"His grandmother's, I thought this action was seamless, but I didn't expect to be almost slipped away by you just after going out...... Hmph, you guys are fighting to go to the main mine to wait for the rabbit, you didn't expect me to meet the main owner here!"
The man in black sneered, holding a strangely shaped scimitar in his hand, and jumped out in advance with one jump, and the speed was amazing!
