Chapter 183 Entering the mine for the first time...
The steep mountains are rolling.
Both sides of the mountain ring road are covered with towering and inexplicable vegetation.
The sun shines through the treetops, casting a shadow of a tree onto the hot ground.
Occasionally, a few weird howls could be heard in the dense jungle.
A low-level mountain patrol ghost jumped down from the cliff and landed in the middle of the road between the cliffs.
He raised his head and bared his teeth and smelled the smell in the air.
Roar~!
As if he noticed something, the mountain patrol ghost suddenly turned his head and roared towards the end of the mountain road.
Buzz buzz...
The unique roar of the maglev engine came from afar.
The khaki exploration vehicle was like a violent ferocious beast, roaring and making a beautiful turn and drift on the aisle of the mountainous road!
The rapidly rotating magnetic levitation beam at the rear of the car immediately filled the sky with loess!
It's so hazy that it's hard to open your eyes.
"Uh-huh~! It's so enjoyable! Hahahaha!"
In the driver's seat, Hu Kui held a cigarette in his mouth and skillfully shifted gears.
Then step on the accelerator hard!
"Fuck! Second brother! Slow down!"
Sitting in the back seat and clutching the armrest, Zhuge Gang kept yelling: "I almost vomited out the sashimi I ate last night!"
Xue Yun, the co-pilot, gritted his teeth and his face was already ashen.
He now misses Zhao Tianyi's armored vehicle very much.
At least it's comfortable and safe enough, so you don't have to suffer like this...
Looking sideways at the excited Hu Kui, Xue Yun's intestines were filled with regret.
Just because of Zhao Tianyi's suggestion that "it's best to get to the mine before dark".
Xue Yun actually handed over the driving task to Hu Kui, a lunatic...
This guy is not vague at all. I never saw him hit the brakes along the way!
Resisting the urge to vomit, Xue Yun swore secretly in his heart.
Even if the sky falls, I will never let this guy touch the steering wheel again!
"Cut the damn nonsense!"
After taking a deep breath of cigarette, Hu Kui laughed and cursed: "With my driving skills, this kind of mountain road is just child's play!"
"Weird...freak..."
Pointing at the patrolling ghost blocking the road not far away, Zhuge Gangtang shouted: "There are wild monsters ahead, be careful!"
"Xiao Gu, clear the obstacles!" Xue Yun shouted in a deep voice.
Xiao Gu in the back seat frowned, and the aura of the biological force field exploded!
Swish——
The Yin soldiers of Bai Zhan sneaked out from the void, and the underworld sword passed by the wind!
With a bang!
The strong sword energy penetrated directly through the body of the Mountain Patrol Ghost, instantly tearing it into pieces...
Pieces of flesh and blood scattered all over the sky with a loud crash, all falling onto the body of the high-speed car.
Along with Hu Kui's wild laughter, there was a lot of cursing in the carriage.
Xue Yun couldn't help but hold his face and smile bitterly. The corners of Xue Yun's mouth were twitching, and his face was covered with black lines...
None of these idiots can make anyone worry!
Compared with the plain environment of the Daxia Empire, most of the territory of the Empire where the Sun Never Sets consists of mountains or isolated islands.
The geological structure is not only complex, but the activity of the veins and magma is also very frequent and restless.
Volcanic eruptions, tsunamis and earthquakes are almost common natural phenomena among locals!
Perhaps it is this unique geographical structure that has led to the proliferation of magnetic gold veins.
Pass through rugged and steep mountains.
Finally, I vaguely saw a series of low buildings not far away.
The vehicle stopped and everyone got out of the car.
The mine in front of me was in dilapidated condition, with most of the outer protective walls collapsed.
Various exploration and mining equipment were scattered around, obviously no one had taken care of them for a long time.
The metal door was ajar and unlocked.
Bursts of dark wind drifted out from the mining area, making people shudder.
"Are we here?"
Shrinking his neck, Zhuge Gangtang asked.
Xue Yun nodded and remained silent.
From the moment he approached this place, he sensed an inexplicable aura.
This aura is different from a biological force field, and Xue Yun himself can't tell what it is!
In short, this mine is very dangerous.
Various equipment was taken out from the system space, and everyone dressed up.
"Tianyi, use your mental power to detect the movement in the mining area!" Xue Yun ordered.
Closing his eyes, Zhao Tianyi slowly activated his mental skills.
Invisible mental fluctuations quickly enveloped most of the mining area...
"How about it?"
Observing the surroundings vigilantly, Xue Yun asked: "Are there any wild monsters in the mining area?"
"There is nothing unusual at the moment."
Opening his eyes, Zhao Tianyi shook his head and said: "My mental strength cannot penetrate deep into the underground mine. As for the ground in the mining area, there is no living thing at all, not even a corpse..."
Not a living creature?
Not a single body?!
Where have the hundreds or thousands of miners in the mine gone?!
And what about the four groups of Night Watchmen who accepted the mission and came to slay the demons?
Even if he died, there would be no body left behind!
It's really a little too weird...
"Are you sure?" Xue Yun asked with raised eyebrows.
"I'm sure..." Zhao Tian said expressionlessly.
"Is it possible that everyone is in the underground mine tunnel?" Hu Kui asked.
Shaking his head, Xue Yun felt that this was not possible.
The underground mine tunnels are narrow and steep, and the environment is extremely harsh.
With so many missing people, why should the already crowded mine be overcrowded?
"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger's cubs..."
With a spread of his arms, Xue Yun could summon Honglian and Ningxue.
"Even if it's a dragon's den or a tiger's den, we still have to break in to know what's inside!"
Everyone is ready to go, and everyone releases armed monsters!
Yun sucked on the lollipop, and Zhao Tianyi put down the metal box in his hand.
After a sound of mechanical gears rubbing together, the metal box slowly deformed and turned into an individual special combat vehicle with its own tracks!
All kinds of exaggerated weapons were stretched out, and they were armed to the teeth.
Everyone was stunned on the spot, their eyes flashing with gold...
Even Xue Yun can't help but look fanatical!
"Why are you all looking at me?"
The sequence super brain integrated into the chariot, and the metal chariot immediately made a deafening roar.
Turning over and sitting in the car, Zhao Tianyi murmured: "I just made a simple upgrade to the mecha steel frame..."
Awesome~!
Everyone silently extended their thumbs up and couldn't help but give him a collective thumbs up.
The five people worked together to push open the heavy door of the mine.
Taking the lead to step in, Xue Yun still saw an inexplicable depression in his eyes.
All the equipment stopped working, and there was no one anywhere as far as the eye could see.
The surroundings were so quiet that it was scary.
"Everyone, be careful and don't get separated!"
Observing the surroundings vigilantly, Xue Yun led everyone to gradually explore the inside of the mining area.
The rows of low bungalows were the miners' dormitories. Hu Kui and Xiao Gu checked them, but there was still no sign of anyone.
"Damn it, this place is so evil, there's not even a mouse in sight!"
Lifting his foot to put out the cigarette butt, Hu Kui curled his lips impatiently.
Xue Yun narrowed his eyes and felt a rather bad feeling arise spontaneously.
It seems that it is exactly what Zhao Tianyi said. Thousands of people disappeared without a trace, not even their bones were left behind...
After passing through the accommodation area, everyone arrived near the warehouse in the mining area.
In the huge warehouse, countless purple-black ores were piled haphazardly in front of the door.
"Is this..."
Randomly picking up a small piece of ore and playing with it, Zhuge steely eyes flashed with stars.
The entire body of the ore is black, with purple crystal lines covering the surface.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the stones, immediately reflecting the brilliant colors of purple and red.
"That's right..."
Zhao Tianyi said coldly: "These stones are priceless magnetic gold!"
