Chapter 248 Miners Construction Purpose (8600, Xiaojiuqian)

"Wanye-kun, this is your ID card!"

"You must wear both a wristband and an ID card. Otherwise, the armed robots in the camp will not recognize your identity and will regard you as an intruder and shoot violently!"

In the simple colored steel tile barracks, Wan Ye Dacheng, who was wearing a miner's uniform and a safety helmet, nervously got into the simple and sturdy bus, obediently clutching his identification tag in his hand.

"Just hang it around your neck!" The middle-aged man next to him, who was also dressed as a miner, was holding a flat glass flask in his hand. He saw his nervousness and comforted him.

The man's name is Ishikawa Kikitake. According to what he said, he is the boss of a company in Shizuoka Prefecture. After the snake disaster, his company closed down and he had no choice but to come here to work.

"Ishikawa-kun, the people from Yashida Industry said they wanted us to dig, but what kind of ore are they digging for?" Manno Daisei looked outside awkwardly, feeling restless, and couldn't help but ask Ishikawa beside him.

Ishikawa raised his head and drank a small sip of sake and waved his hand: "You will know when you get to the place. There will be someone there specially to guide newcomers like you!"

Didi didi——

As the inspection sound passed, the gate of the camp slowly opened, and more than thirty simple but sturdy armed buses slowly drove out of the camp.

The reason why it is said to be crude is that these buses have abandoned all decorative things, not even glass. The original windows are pretending to be protective steel plates, and even the driver's front windshield is welded on.

Layers of protective wire mesh.

Wan Ye Dacheng had seen it before getting on the bus. On the top of the bus, there were four six-barreled Gatling machine guns that looked astonishingly powerful. Long ammunition chains were coiled around the ammunition supply nests on the roof.

One circle.

The artificial sun in the sky radiates light, illuminating the road for these buses.

It is muddy, bumpy and full of potholes. It is exactly the kind of road that has been forcibly carved out by many cars. Even though the tires of these buses have been specially modified, it still feels very bumpy when sitting in the car.

Through the holes in the protective steel plate outside, Wan Ye Dacheng could see convoys joining them from time to time. Within half an hour after leaving the camp, the size of their mining team had expanded to nearly a hundred buses.

Along the way, Wanye Dacheng could see the densely packed wasteland where the artificial sun shone, with women and men bent over working.

Man Ye Dacheng quietly learned that most of these farmers who cultivated the land were also Japanese, but compared to miners, the salary of these farmers responsible for planting was half less than them, only 80,000 yen.

Eighty thousand yen, his monthly loan repayment is more than this amount, plus his wife's monthly household expenses and his children's tuition fees.

So when entering the camp to choose a career, Wan Ye Dacheng chose miner without any hesitation.

However, the weapons on the armed bus gave Wan Ye Dacheng a bad feeling.

"Hmm! It's almost there!" Ishikawa, who was sitting next to Manno Daisei, looked at the time on the wristband and threw an eye patch to Manno Daisei.

"Put it on and close your eyes. We are about to pass through a dark area. Don't worry, this dark area is not big. It's only fifteen minutes away!"

After saying that, Ishikawa fastened his seat belt, put on his blindfold, folded his arms, and fell into a deep sleep due to his drunkenness.

Manno Daicheng took the eye patch thrown by Ishikawa and looked around. There were people around him who were wearing eye patches like Ishikawa and fell asleep, and there were newcomers who were as ignorant as him.

Some people were lying in the gaps between the protective steel plates with excited faces, looking out excitedly, as if they were preparing to watch a big show.

The bus soon gradually left the area covered by the artificial sun and entered a dark place.

Deng Deng Deng Deng

As the driver in the front row pressed the switch, two headlights instantly lit up in front of the bus. The blazing white lights shone out from afar like two beams of light, illuminating the road ahead.

More than a hundred buses were driving in the darkness, and the lights converged together, like a light dragon in the darkness.

Wow!

Soon Wanye Dacheng understood the reason why the bus was equipped with weapons, and the sound of wings and scales rubbing together sounded in the air.

Then Wanye Dacheng felt the roof of the bus shaking.

Da da da da da——

The sounds of heavy machine gun fire and shrill screams were occasionally mixed with the sounds of heavy objects falling to the ground.

"Potter! I killed six of them."

"I am seven"

"I only have three, Shet, but you should leave a few for me—"

The white driver was watching the results of the automatic Vulcan cannon shooting through the lit visor in front of him, while chatting with some drivers on the current channel. He seemed to be familiar with this dark place.

The narrow strip of land that the bus convoy passed through was located at the boundary between two artificial suns, no more than ten kilometers from east to west.

In the darkness, the bright lights of the bus attracted thousands of predators. The first ones to arrive were the winged creatures of Haierdam.

The anti-aircraft firepower network composed of more than a hundred buses and hundreds of Vulcan cannons was like a red chain rising into the sky. These strange birds with duck beaks and eagle bodies were instantly beaten to death under the intensive firepower of the Vulcan cannons.

sieve.

"Peripheral vehicles turn on side protection and activate energy pulse guns!"

There was a sudden silence in the noisy channel, and then a steady voice sounded in the channel.

"receive!"

The driver put away his joking expression and replied in a serious tone. It seemed that the car he was driving was at the boundary of the convoy.

Ta-ta!

The driver pushed the red button next to the steering wheel, and then the protective steel plate on the left side of the bus split into two, revealing the densely packed mobile shooting ports inside.

Blue energy pulse beams shoot out from these shooting ports

Wan Ye Dacheng was lying in the gap of the protective steel plate. With the faint light emitted by the energy beam, he watched in the dark night, large swaths of beasts and humanoid creatures fell down like wheat.

"There are only some small tribes and some beasts attracted by the light. These dark elves in Haildam seem to have learned well!"

Forty kilometers away from the convoy, there is a mining base with an artificial sun hanging high. In the barracks office of the base, a big Germanic man wearing a costume similar to the German military uniform from World War II was cutting the sausages on the plate with a knife and fork while looking at the people in front of him.

Satellite surveillance screen.

What was on the screen was the bus convoy moving in progress. Looking at the pictures from the satellite's infrared camera, the big man who originally planned to fish looked a little disappointed.

"This dark area we left deliberately has allowed at least thousands of dark elves to bury their bones here. Bernie, they are not fools! They knew it was a trap but they went to die!" A man was holding a coffee cup and drinking hot air.

The big man with a cup of black coffee looked at the satellite surveillance and shook his head.

"I'm going to the Metallurgical District in a while. The new guy will arrive soon and you'll be in charge!"

The big man drank the steaming coffee in the cup in one gulp, said hello to the Germanic man who was studying the satellite images and wanted to find another way to fish, put down the cup, and prepared to go out.

Bernie picked up a piece of sliced ​​red sausage with a silver fork. He ate the bread with relish and waved his hand without looking back.

"Sir!"

Inside the base, heavily armed soldiers can be seen everywhere. Most of them come from training camps in Siberia and the Middle East, a small number come from mercenary groups in East Africa, and some are elite gunners transferred from the underground world.

When these unruly soldiers on Earth saw Monroe, they were as obedient as dolls and took the initiative to salute and say hello.

Monroe just nodded slightly in response.

As card sequence soldiers, he and Bernie are the managers of this mine. Apart from the big boss and a few big bosses, they have absolute management rights over this camp.

This includes the command and control of forty defense steel soldiers and the control of intelligent fire control weapons in the base.

Monroe walked quickly, and within five or six minutes of walking, he arrived at a strictly closed housing area.

"Mr. Monroe, the new batch of metal ingots has been smelted!"

Seeing Monroe come in, the manager in charge of metal smelting quickly greeted him and reported on the progress of metal smelting.

In the center of the empty space of the factory building is a large ball of light that is exactly the same as the artificial sun hanging in the sky, but its diameter is several times smaller than the artificial sun.

More than a dozen round tripod-shaped metal furnaces were burned red by the blazing high temperature. Some workers controlled metal arms next to computers to throw pieces of irregular metal ore into these furnaces.

Under the heating of polymers powered by the artificial sun, the ores in these metal furnaces were soon smelted into furnaces of liquid and poured into molds.

The metal ingots that have not yet been cooled are as big as bricks. Then these metal ingots will be put into the conveyor belt and continuously forged by heavy pneumatic hammers. A complete assembly line has ten pneumatic hammers of various specifications.

several.

Each metal ingot needs to be hammered by these air pressure gravity at least hundreds or thousands of times.

Several kinds of metal ingots that have been tempered with impurities are again grabbed by the mechanical arm in fixed proportions and put into another specific cauldron, powered by the energy of the artificial sun.

The runes in the cauldron kept flashing, changing the molecular proportions of these metal ingots after they were fused. The finally formed liquid was re-injected into the mold, resulting in a metal block no more than the size of a palm.

After it cools down naturally, workers here will carefully control the robotic arms to pick it up and seal it.

This kind of alloy is a fusion of five metals, and it often takes dozens of tons of ore to obtain an alloy weighing several kilograms. The big boss gave it a strange name - The Essence of Hardware!

Accompanied by the metallurgical supervisor, Monroe inspected the work of the metallurgical department and then came to the warehouse where metal ore was stored.

In the warehouse, there are four steel soldier handles, and boxes of metal ingots are arranged neatly, including gold bricks, silver ingots, copper ingots, and iron blocks.

Without even looking at the neatly numbered boxes of precious metals, Monroe walked to the innermost area of ​​the warehouse. In the innermost area of ​​the warehouse, there were more than a dozen large, locked iron boxes.

Monroe leaned over, unlocked a box with his fingerprint, took out a piece of metal essence from the box, tossed it twice in his hand, and weighed the weight.

"How many?"

"Half a ton of metal essence, 318 magic gems, and 25 kilograms of magic metal were smelted this month!"
