The diameter of the mountain that Miao Pu and the others excavated was not exaggerated, not to mention that the hole was dug into the mountainside, not the base.
After about 14 hours of continuous efforts, it was finally drilled through.
After that, everyone opened a large cave near the middle of the tunnel. Not only was it going to be a place for everyone to stay in the future, it was also planted with plants that could produce fruits.
This plant is skewed positive in the element map, which means that it is more dependent on the surface-like environment. Miao Pu can only use the structure of the mountain cave to temporarily create a small closed ecosystem.
The sky in the underground space has luminous energy like mist, which makes the underground space without night, but it is not sunlight, and it cannot replace the role of sunlight. Fortunately, Miao Pu's solar energy reserves are almost full, meeting the sunlight needs of fruit plants.
, it seems to be enough for now.
It took about an hour to build this foothold in the middle of the mountain. By the time it was basically completed, the raging storm on the sea had ended, but instead of dissipating, it had gone all the way to the west.
This thunder storm in the underground space can be said to be a phenomenon of concentrated release of various energies. It has almost no end, and it is constantly moving from one place to another.
Although Qi Ling has been analyzing the cause of this phenomenon, he cannot clearly judge the principle and significance of its existence. When he encountered it twice, it can only be said to be a problem of character.
The cave in the mountain finally took shape, looking like a gourd strung along a pole.
The pole is naturally the passage, and the gourd is two connected caves. The larger one is used to grow fruit plants, or to be more precise, it builds a small botanical garden. The smaller one is a camp.
As a tool of war, [Mara] certainly has no human rights. In order to save energy, two of them were adjusted to a dormant state. Now they stand on both sides of the aisle like sculptures. The remaining ones are injected with energy to enter the maintenance stage. When the seedlings
After Park and the others have finished resting, these [Maras] will accompany them eastward to explore the secrets of the crystal jungle in the basin.
They all fell asleep in Kangdanian, and this sleep was different from the past. They did not sleep with their clothes on, but took off their plant monsters and source armor, and slept normally like resting in a military hut.
After a good sleep, they can only use this method to restore their mental state to a better state as much as possible to cope with the challenges that may be coming.
Luo Zhiqing didn't sleep. She took off her armor and wore comfortable cotton clothes. She sat on a low stone pier and stared at the campfire not far away in a daze.
She likes campfires, or the feeling and atmosphere that campfires bring.
The light and warmth, and the presence of the campfire made her feel warm, especially when combined with the darkness and cold environment.
"Cough cough cough" A sudden violent cough made Luo Zhiqing's body tremble violently, her face turned red with embarrassment, and black blood vessels and tendons appeared on her forehead and temples.
She covered her mouth with her hands. When the coughing ended, there was blood in her palms. There was a green and black thread-like substance in the red blood, which looked very strange.
He moved his hand, and the blood in his palm turned into purple mist, rising like smoke and gradually disappearing.
Luo Zhiqing continued to look at the campfire with a calm expression. She didn't have much time. The more frequently she used her space powers, the greater the damage to her body. She just hoped that she could hold on longer now. Some things still needed her.
To complete it is her obsession.
When Miao Pu returned to the cave from the direction of the sea, Luo Zhiqing had returned to normal on the surface. She looked at the long piece of wood under Miao Pu's arm and said with a smile: "It seems you succeeded."
"Haha, let's just say, it may not really succeed, I can only say that hope will not die out." Miao Pu's face was filled with a confident smile.
This is a derivative of a big tree. After the ship was destroyed, the final step of the Heart of Thorns was to derive and protect this long tree.
With it, after repeated stimulation, the big trees gathered together to form a tower, and one day a new sea ship would eventually be built. This was a typical Miao Pu-style plan for a rainy day. He was not sure about this big tree before.
Whether he could keep it or not, he didn't mention it to anyone, but now he fished it back from the sea.
The fishing itself is not strenuous. Heart of Thorns has faithfully completed the task assigned to him, and it has been completed well, well protected, and the location coordinates are also very clear. The key is that transportation is a bit troublesome. But anyway, the work is done now.
Even if he paid a high price for it, he felt it was worth it.
After taking care of the long wood, Miao Pu also took off his armor and sat down by the campfire to warm himself in only his underwear.
He deliberately spent money to create a normal living space so that he could feel the peace brought by a normal environment.
Whether it is the ruins area or the underground space, it is depressing for everyone, including him. After being in this environment for a long time, even if you get enough sleep, you don't feel like you are resting particularly well.
It can be said that Miao Pu and Luo Zhiqing have no personal relationship, and Miao Pu is not the type to deliberately please and strike up conversations with beautiful women. After being together for such a long time, he has never asked a personal question, such as what he usually eats.
What are your preferences...?
This time, there was no exception. What he exchanged with Luo Zhiqing was mainly intelligence. After all, Luo Zhiqing explored the depths of the basin alone, and every additional piece of information he mastered would be beneficial to the team's subsequent progress and survival.
Naturally, Luo Zhiqing didn't mind talking about this topic. She held a cup of black hot tea and chatted with Miao Pu while drinking it.
This kind of hot tea smells more like medicine, but Luo Zhiqing said it was some kind of bitter tea, and Miao Pu didn't ask further. Luo Zhiqing's alienated state is very special, just like an alien, let alone drinking medicine, just drinking
He wouldn't be too surprised about the engine oil, not to mention it didn't bother him. After all, he was still very wary of Luo Zhiqing, and he didn't have a deep friendship.
Miao Pu listened very attentively to Luo Zhiqing's detailed explanation of the various situations in the Crystal Jungle, and chewed an essence fruit from time to time. He relied on this method to absorb the energy in the essence fruit, and at the same time, he circulated the heavens to absorb the energy.
and purification.
In fact, this is also cultivation. Moving the universe is cultivation, over and over again. It is really a grinding effort. It is very boring and the results are not obvious. Without some perseverance, it is really difficult to persevere. He is good at this aspect.
It's like fishing for three days and drying nets for two days.
Drinking tea, eating, and chatting leisurely, time passed unknowingly.
Both of them took a nap later, but for strong men like them, two or three hours of sleep a day was enough without much consumption.
After resting for about 10 hours in total, the energetic group left the cave and crossed the mountains to the basin.
This time they did not carry many items, so they traveled lightly.
None of the cliffs and mountains are particularly tall, they are all about the same size, but they are all sharp and steep, giving the impression that they are not naturally formed.
However, after listening to the explanation of the weapon spirit, Miao Pu knew that the mountains were really made by nature. According to the analysis of the weapon spirit, they were the masterpieces of thunder and storms. Wind, rain and lightning shaped them into what they are now, from some kind of
From a perspective, these rocks are good materials. If Dragon Leihan from the Snake Sect came here, he would probably faint from joy.
It's a pity that this kind of treasure is really not attractive to Miao Pu now, and he doesn't have time to dig out the source of calcite in Qi Ling's mouth.
The group was well-equipped and moved very fast. It took less than an hour to cross the mountains and enter the basin again.
Unlike the north, the overall terrain here is higher, and there is no low-level energy mist to diffuse, so there is no problem of lack of oxygen and inhalation of toxic air.
There are no plants here, and everything you can see is white sand. Moreover, the particles of these white sands are very large, almost as big as rolling balls, and they are just sand. There are no finer grains of sand, and there is no soil.
Speaking of which, the scene in front of you is due to the repeated baptism of the unique thunder storms in the underground space, and it has become this strange color over time. Luo Zhiqing told everyone that in terms of value alone, each of these grains of sand can be exchanged for the same amount.
size diamonds.
Zhou Shuai and the others exclaimed:
"Cio has a girl, are we walking in a diamond desert?"
"Well, it should be that if we are destined to leave and someone can help us, the future may be settled."
Miao Pu nodded seriously at these jokes, "This is really feasible, I support you."
"Haha, it's rare for [Canglang] to be obsessed with money. Can't you easily get money if you want it?"
"Oh, we all have a hard life." Following the crowd's words, the crowd cheered, and the slightly depressing atmosphere became unusually lively.
"[Cang Lang], does the big tree you got back yesterday mean it's okay for us to go back?" Qian Lihang asked what everyone was thinking.
"Haha, that's right, but it will take some effort and time. I estimate that the cost of building another ship will not be cheaper than the previous nuclear submarines..." Miao Pu said with some pain.
Qian Lihang said in disbelief: "Halo, it's too exaggerated."
Miao Pu, on the other hand, had some results from various previous analyzes by Qi Ling, which allowed him to master more information, so he said with certainty: "Hey, it's not an exaggeration at all. Many things in this underground space have
Uniqueness cannot be copied. Now this piece of wood is very different from the original. It would take almost a hundred years to naturally generate a piece of wood like this, and the premise is that the environment here will not change. And this is almost
Impossible, we have experienced two thunderstorms. You can understand it as a snowball that is constantly melting in the sun, and it will always gradually consume light."
Xue Ming took over the conversation and said: "Ah? Speaking of which, wouldn't it be great to play as a plant-type awakened person? Promote wood. In the future, you can make a living just by relying on this..."
Qian Lihang replied on behalf of Miao Pu: "You didn't understand the situation. Didn't they say that this kind of plant needs the environment here. It's not just about being able to play with plants. Plant awakeners are in this underground space.
It may be possible to induce the growth of plants, but it's like the hydrogen in a hydrogen balloon. Use a little and a little, and it all depends on the balance, right?"
Miao Pu smiled and nodded: "Haha, that's pretty much it."
Hu Yantie laughed heartlessly and said, "Okay, why are you thinking so much? Look at us, we are now wearing precious armor and stepping on diamonds. This is a life that we could never dream of in the past."
Zhou Shuai smiled and said: "Hey, don't tell me, after this mission is over, I have to brag to others. We can be regarded as pure men who regard money as dirt."
Everyone burst into laughter. Qian Lihang even said with an exaggerated expression and a strange voice: "Well, comrades, ever since I learned about the prices of various commodities here, I feel that we are also rich and have sex. I didn't before."
I heard that Bill Gates plays with diamonds as sand..." After saying that, he kicked the sand under his feet in a weird way.
The sand was soft and there was no way out. Although everyone had the help of plant monsters, their speed was also reduced a lot.
After marching eastward for an hour, Miao Pu greeted him and everyone slowed down.
The Crystal Jungle is already vaguely visible at the end of the line of sight. According to the information given by Luo Zhiqing, if we move forward, we will probably touch the boundary of the blue-blooded people's territory.
Miao Pu rested with everyone and prepared for battle. At the same time, he sent 6 [Mara] to lure the enemy.
