Chapter 387: Mining, Red Monsters

Xia Yanzhen sat in the front cockpit.

It's a lot simpler than the remote control end, a metal seat, a little more difficult to sit on than the brigade high pressure throne.

There are two joysticks in front of the seat, a display, and nothing else.

Xia Yanzhen didn't find any start buttons.

The display is reddish like the terminal in the room.

There are a few icons on the left side of the screen.

The first one is a black square dirt block icon with a progress bar next to it, which is displayed as 10%.

The second is a golden irregular mineral, shown as 0%, and the third is a red round mineral.

The fourth is a silvery-white mineral.

All shows are 0%.

Although the screen is slightly reddish, it does not affect the color and appearance of these minerals.

Without further explanation, Xia Yanzhen divided them into four types of ores: "black ore", "gold ore", "red ore" and "silver ore" according to their color.

It is not known what these minerals can do.

He tried to push the lever on his left hand side, and the miner set up, and pushed back, and the miner returned to its original "tiling" down.

"It's up and down."

The other lever is the direction of operation, the same as the joystick, push it there and go there, and the operation is simple.

With Xia Yanzhen's operation, the mining machine has a light to illuminate the way ahead.

The light is slightly red, just like the light of the terminal screen.

When I woke up in the room, the overhead light was normal white.

When Xia Yanzhen left, he turned off the light, the fine tradition of Zhengguo people should be able to save a little energy consumption.

The mining hall is opposite the entrance, and there are several cavities.

Xia Yanzhen chose one at random and drove the mining machine forward.

A long, sloping downward channel, cylindrical, not much larger than a mining machine.

Surrounded by black rock walls, Xia Yanzhen followed the mine path, and after about two hours, he reached the end.

"That's it?"

Xia Yanzhen frowned and controlled the mining machine to advance straight ahead.

The miner crashed into the rock wall in front of it, and the outer metal ball spun wildly spun spontaneously.

The hard rock wall shattered in an instant, forming a new tunnel as the miner advanced.

"It's not going to collapse." Xia Yanzhen looked overhead in the faintly flickering light.

The rock wall at the top of the tunnel is very "solid" and shows no signs of landslides.

"Where's the debris that was dug up?"

The mining machine was moving forward slowly, Xia Yanzhen was a little puzzled, where did the sand and gravel that was dug out go?

Soon, he caught a glimpse of the screen, where the percentage of the first black ore had changed.

At first, the stock of black ore was 10%, then after two hours of progress, it fell to 9%, and now with the start of "drilling", it has risen to 10%.

"These are all black mines?" Xia Yanzhen looked around.

It seems that the excavated sand and gravel are directly "absorbed" by the mining machine and used as energy.

Since the surrounding rock wall is considered a black mine, the mining machine is basically a perpetual motion machine, as long as it is not damaged, it can be mined forever?

I have to say, this is good news.

With a perpetual mining machine, it will be much easier to find ancient relics.

Unless the dream of the gods is insane, the ancient relics are not in this mine at all, but somewhere else.

If it's a normal task, it's really not completely impossible.

But that's a promotion task.

The Dream Apostle was sealed as an ordinary person, and if the ancient relics were not in the mine, but somewhere else, then the probability of completing this task would be infinitely close to zero.

There is no need for the Dream of the Gods to do this - whether the Dream of the Gods is some kind of procedure, rule, or a true personified deity, the "it" with great power can directly obliterate the Apostle of the Dream if necessary.

Instead of using this method to pit the dream apostle to death.

Xia Yanzhen believed that if he carefully searched the camp outside, he should be able to find clues about the ancient relics and confirm that it was in this mine.

Even, the fundamental purpose of the establishment of the mine camp is for ancient relics, and the rest of the minerals are incidental.

Xia Yanzhen did not carry out the step of information exploration, and directly drove the mining machine.

It's kind of fun, so I drove all the way here.

He pulled the lever backwards, and the miner suddenly dug down.

The fixed strap on the seat was tied to Xia Yanzhen, and he didn't let him fall, he planned to dig a few dozen meters down, and then dig back into the original mine hall.

Because of the need to dig a hole, the speed of progress is significantly slower.

Xia Yanzhen yawned, putting aside the manipulation of the mining machine, the process of simply digging a hole was not interesting.

Fortunately, he was also the one who dug a hole with the Fire Robbery Beast back then, and now he is "back to his old business", which seems to be easy.

Nearly 100 meters of digging down, the black ore is still around.

Xia Yanzhen controlled the mining machine to dig back.

The energy of mining machines is accumulated to 12% of black ore.

At this rate, it will take a long time to get full.

Obviously, the cost of mining is much larger than the consumption of normal progress.

After digging like this for a while, a touch of red suddenly appeared in front of me.

Xia Yanzhen pushed the sense of control to the end, and the mining machine entered the maximum power at once.

The red color in front of his eyes gradually revealed.

There was a piece of red ore, the size of a man, and the miner was pushed forward.

The red ore was quickly crushed and "absorbed", Xia Yanzhen looked at the display screen, and the zero percent of the red ore in it became five percent.

"Let's see if there's anything else around."

Xia Yanzhen expanded the scope of mining nearby, and an underground space gradually formed.

Sure enough, some more red ore was found.

The amount of red ore stored in the miner has increased to 10%.

It expanded a little more, and even dug up the old wild path that was already on it, and there was no more gain, Xia Yan really accepted it when he saw it, and continued to return.

Little by little, time passed.

The mining operation lasted for a full fifteen hours before Xia Yan Zhen returned to the original cave hall.

The energy of black mines, i.e. mining machines, has risen to 18%.

The perpetual motion machine is a perpetual motion machine, but it also consumes a lot of energy to drill out of the mine.

I don't know if these black mines are the energy prompted in the terminal at the beginning.

5% for gold and 11% for red.

The last silver mine, Xia Yanzhen has not yet encountered.

"These ores should be useful, how do you get them?"

Xia Yanzhen left the mining machine and stepped on the metal floor of the cave hall.

Except for the "driving ball" in the front, which has a door, the ball in the back is all black and cannot be opened.

"Let's go to the terminal." After observing for a while, Xia Yanzhen had no idea of forcibly dismantling the mining machine.

Of course, he can dismantle it, but forcibly dismantling it is not the right way, and he has to rely on mining machines to mine, what if it is broken?

As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the mine, a voice was heard.

Xia Yanzhen turned his head and saw the metal ground under the mining machine sink, carrying it into the darkness.

Xia Yanzhen walked over and saw the miner disappear.

There is only a sunken metal floor, and there is a black passage next to it.

Standing in place and waiting for a while, the miner emerged from the passage and the ground floated.

Xia Yanzhen re-entered the mining machine, the percentage of black ore became 10%, and the red ore and gold ore returned to zero.

"It's quite convenient to automate it."

Leaving the mine, Xia Yanzhen did not immediately return to his original room, but carefully searched for it in the hemisphere room in the middle of the camp.

Sure enough, he found a work diary.

When you open it, you can see a lot of important information recorded in it.

This mine belongs to a force called "Tenjin" - or a company.

Because the person who records the work log calls himself an "employee", it is assumed that the god is a mining company.

The purpose of the mine was to detect fluctuations in the "ancient relics" in a large area of the mountain range, including underground.

That's why they came to mine and dig up ancient relics.

Those "color mines" named by Xia Yanzhen are really incidental.

Excavating ancient relics is the key.

The work diary does not depict what the ancient relic is, its size, shape, or appearance.

An employee's work log just records where they come from and some of the work progress of each day.

Very boring content.

Until one day, the "camouflage" of the mine fails, and it is noticed by the red monsters in the outside world, and they fall into the attack of the red monsters.

In the end, it was lost and became what it is now.

"Red Monster ......" Xia Yanzhen looked at those red traces, were they left by the Red Monster?

There were no Red Monster corpses in the camp, so I don't know what they look like.

"I don't know the time at all, and the Celestial Company doesn't care about anything after losing a mine?" Xia Yanzhen closed the work log.

Judging from the work logs, as well as the age of the site, it has been many years since the Red Monster attack.

The Tenjin Corporation does not appear to have made any moves to reclaim the mines.

Is it simply not known, or is there something wrong with the company?

Xia Yan looked at the gray sky with the red of the sunset.

More than ten hours have passed, and the sky has not changed at all, and it seems that there is no day and night in this mission world.

"The mine is highly 'automated', and those defensive cannons should be repaired with ore." Xia Yanzhen glanced at the damaged ground and air artillery.

Now the tone of this promotion task has been basically determined - mining, using the mined ore to repair the defense cannon, defend against those red monsters, buy more time to continue digging, and bring it out after digging up ancient relics.

As for the safe house, Xia Yanzhen thinks that there is a high probability that it is these buildings in the camp.

The air is filled with toxic gases, which are not suitable for human life.

Despite the presence of a gas helmet, it also restricts the space of the Dream Apostle in disguise.

I won't set up a safe house 108,000 miles away from here.

The mission world may be very large, and the range of activities of the Dream Apostle is generally not too large, and it will not be "the world is so big, I want to go and see it".

Unless the Dream Apostle deliberately wanted to.

This is true for general tasks, not to mention the more difficult promotion missions.

"Let's find that ancient relic first."

Xia Yanzhen said secretly in his heart.

Whether the safe house is here or not will be known when the time comes, so there's no need to think about it here.

Compared to ordinary Dream Apostles, Xia Yanzhen still has great power and can move freely in the outside world.

He is not in a hurry to use all kinds of intelligence information and various analyses to come up with the most efficient way to accomplish the task.

Even Xia Yanzhen had discovered that surviving in this environment would help him cultivate the breathing method.

A bad external environment will play a certain role in stimulating and promoting.

The core philosophy of Pranayama is "Adapt, Evolve, Strengthen".

Now this poisonous air still has a slight impact on Xia Yanzhen, such as a slight discomfort and blockage between breaths, and his throat will feel itchy.

But if you give him some time and keep practicing the breathing method, these discomforts will slowly diminish until they disappear completely.

This is adaptation, but also the improvement of strength, evolution, and strengthening.

Bad environment is equivalent to a free place of tempering.

As long as life-threatening situations don't happen frequently, why bother?

"I didn't expect that I would be able to try to breathe underwater in the future......" Xia Yan really thought, and suddenly turned his head to look at the steel wall.

Outside a large cave over there, a tall red figure was approaching.

"The Red Monsters who destroyed the camp? Try how it looks. ”

Xia Yanzhen put down the work log and took the initiative to walk over.
