Chapter 30 Trouble
Miners, probably the most human profession in the New World.
Ten kilometers south of Storm Fortress is a large mine, the Mill Mine. As early as the beginning of the apocalypse, there was a management company operating a fully equipped mineral business center. With the gradual increase in the number of people mining, more and more ordinary humans come to Mir to mine to earn crystal coins, the original pit entrance has now increased to hundreds, the mine excavation depth has reached hundreds of meters from the initial few meters to thousands of meters deep, and the scale of the mineral business center has also expanded again and again.
Those human beings who carry the drilling rig and roar swarm into the dark deep mines to frantically mine countless mineral deposits underground, which has the potential to dig through the earth, and many legends of digging to get rich are quietly circulated among many mining miners, stimulating more poor people who are eager to earn crystal coins to come here to dig gold. But ordinary people can't be promoted to this high-intensity job for a long time, and mining is not without its dangers.
Professional hunters can't choose this profession for long, and the fortress administrators have strict restrictions on long-term mining, and those who try to make a fortune are largely disappointed
Now most of the hunters who come here to mine are in order to earn crystals to make up for the shortfall, and they can leave when they earn enough.
After solemnly showing the administrator the mining license that he had purchased for 150 crystals, he took out the mining equipment stored here.
High-strength drilling and mining machines, automatic mineral collection and processing vehicles, these two pieces of advanced mining equipment are the result of a week of hard work in exchange for mines. There are many varieties of mining equipment sold in the mineral management center, and the price varies greatly, which is suitable for various occupations, otherwise with the power of the energy controller, it will not be able to carry the high-intensity drilling and mining machine used by Dong Yanyan in any case.
After charging the minecart, he sat down on the simple driver's seat and stepped on the accelerator hard, and the black and stupid minecart suddenly let out a howl of "roar", followed by a large stream of black smoke coming out from behind the butt and driving forward.
Driving away from the mineral business center, solemnly and casually drove on a sliding track towards the entrance of the mine, such a track in the entire mining area densely packed innumerable, connecting nearly 100 pit entrances, and no one can predict in which pit they will get a satisfactory harvest, so many people like to use the way of throwing copper plates to decide where they go.
However, Zhuang Yan has never adopted this fatalistic approach, mining is also a technical job, and pure luck cannot guarantee long-term returns.
The minecart kept moving forward, and soon solemnly entered the deep and dark cavern. The minecart lights automatically turn on to illuminate the road ahead, and the rows of brackets flashing quickly on both sides of the tunnel can easily give people the illusion of a trance, and many first-time visitors will inevitably feel a little uneasy in their hearts.
For example, the rookie who followed behind the solemn car let out a frightened scream like a girl as soon as he drove into the mine.
"Holy! Isn't it a woman called Mao? Can you be quiet, the mine collapsed, everyone can be buried here alive! ”
Solemnly threw away the cigarette in his hand that was about to burn to his fingers, turned his head and cursed.
The screaming stopped immediately, but Solemn was stunned at the same time - it was really a who was following him, and it was two women!
It's not that Zhuang Yan hasn't seen a woman who has seen mining, but the probability of appearing is really low, and the woman who chooses to work in the mine is a very minority, which delicate woman will be a mole in the underground world where there is no sunlight?
I didn't expect him to see two today, could it be that this is the refractive reaction of the legendary hidden attribute charm index fluctuation reaching its peak?
Looking at the costumes, one of the two huntress is an energy controller, and the other is probably a mecha master, and they use a relatively rare two-seater multi-purpose mining vehicle, which is more suitable for two people to cooperate in mining.
Seeing that it was a woman's solemnity, he naturally didn't care about their fuss, especially since the other party was likely to come to mining for the first time, which was forgivable.
Ignoring the two angry MMs, he solemnly turned around and concentrated on driving faster and moving forward.
The entire underground mining area of the Mill Plains Mine has been dug out by locust-like humans countless collecting tunnels, which is convenient for later players to dig everywhere, as for the choice of where to excavate, it is purely up to everyone's preference.
Zhuang Yan prefers to mine in the deepest depths, generally speaking, the lower down the ore is, the higher the probability of mining, of course, this is not absolute, and the danger factor of the deep underground is also high.
According to the index displayed on the dashboard of the collection vehicle, he had reached a depth of nearly 3,000 feet, and the risk would increase sharply if he went down, so Zhuang Yan chose a relatively hidden pit and turned in.
As he wished, there were no peers selling their coolies inside, and the management company only stingily installed a few lights on the narrow tunnel rock wall, and water continued to drip into the puddles on the ground on the top of the black pit wall, making a ticking sound.
Driving until the end of the mine, he stopped the mining cart, and turned on the metal detector on the minecart, and soon the screen showed various wave line graphics.
He couldn't quite tell what the lines meant, but there were enough indications that there were minerals in the area.
There may even be veins, which requires empirical judgment.
Adjust the headlights to illuminate the area you want to mine, solemnly take off the combat uniform on your upper body and put it on the saddle with the gun box backpack, and apply a layer of shiny protective oil on the skin of your upper body.
The reason for this is that it is easy to sweat profusely when mining, and if you wear a tight combat suit, it will speed up the physical exertion, and taking off the combat suit will reduce the weight and be better for mining. Deep underground, many tough people will even take off only a pair of pants to show off their figures, and the only thing to worry about is the danger of encountering perversions.
After the preparation was completed, he solemnly moved out of the back frame of the car and was preparing to equip it. He suddenly heard the sound of a collection vehicle sliding on the tracks, and then saw a familiar two-seater collection vehicle.
And two familiar huntresses!
I pour! solemnly scolded secretly, he is not like those men with sperm brains, who forget what his surname is when he sees a beautiful woman, and then desperately puts on a porcelain sleeve.
Long-term experience tells Zhuang Zhuang that under normal circumstances, beautiful women often come with a lot of trouble, especially the two girls in front of them who are obviously novices, and they must have driven the automatic following function of the collection car to come here with him.
However, it was not impossible to deal with these two uninteresting MM solemnity, he kneaded his face vigorously with his big hand, and then carried the mining machine and walked in front of the MM, staring at them without speaking.
One thousand meters underground, in the dimly lit pit, a half-naked strong man's fierce face was shining lewdly, I'm afraid not many MMs have such a good mental quality to withstand it.
In the solemn and blazing gaze, the controller MM sitting in the passenger seat suddenly became a little timid, she turned her head and whispered to her companion: "Sister, why don't we find another tunnel, it doesn't seem to be good here." ”
That's a great deal! solemnly praised in his heart. One person monopolizes the mine road, and the feeling of competing with you with a few more people next to you is like being released alone in an empty toilet, and suddenly another person suddenly comes to the squatting position next to you
