Qiao Zhiya is a hybrid. Before he was born, his elf father wanted him to have a strong physique unique to dwarfs; while his dwarf mother wanted him to have a tall body unique to elves. And then he ...
The green fruit has no core, the flesh is soft and has a strong fragrance. After eating it, a cool air will flow through the body, which is very comfortable.
Georgia squinted his eyes comfortably, remembering how the white-haired monster had made him eat a fruit before feeding him the strange potion. He felt that the other party was a good person. Seeing that he had collected the second piece of crimson ore, he hurried to the depression and pointed, indicating that the tunnel was there. Then he picked up the tools and smashed the next piece of crimson ore.
Bang, bang, bang. Bang, bang, bang.
The gravel fell down like tofu dregs. The team members silently watched Georgia, who was gradually surrounded by the gravel but whose face was flushed with excitement. Suddenly, they felt a toothache - some of them had S-level physical talents, but they were all tall and muscular, and their appearance was very consistent with their qualifications, but this kid... those thin arms, those fair skin, and that little face that looked very weak... It was too unscientific. Where did this kid get all his strength from?
"Did I bring you here for sightseeing?" Chu Rong spoke coldly, glaring at all his useless subordinates.
Everyone woke up as if from a dream, and hurriedly took out their tools. They entered the tunnel in the depression one by one, spread out, and each found a place to start digging.
For a while, there was a dense sound of digging in the pit. Georgia stretched his head to look into the tunnel in between "peeling" the stones. He hesitated for a moment, but still did not take the initiative to point out that there was no ore in the place where some people were digging. Instead, he moved slightly and unnoticedly gave them the place with more ore, and turned around to start looking for ore in other directions.
If only there was a way to tell the white-haired monster the location of the ore without exposing the earth magic... He walked to the other side of the stone wall with some distress, put his hand on it, and infiltrated the magic again.
Fan Xiangnan noticed Georgia holding onto the wall and picking up rocks, but he looked away without paying much attention. He turned his head to look at Chu Rong, who was looking down and thinking about something, and suggested, "Sir, although you have protective clothing, the mutated red tin ore in this place is too dense, and it may still affect your mental strength. Why don't you..."
"No need." Chu Rong came back to his senses, waved his hand to interrupt him, took out an electronic map, drew two strokes on it, threw it over, and ordered: "First, find out the underground structure here, and then dig along the tunnel. Mark the places where there are mutant red tin ore, and just paint black where there are none. There are more mutant red tin ore here than expected, and we must send a professional mining team here. We don't have time to waste here for a long time. This remote mining planet will have energy storms from time to time. Before the next energy storm blows, we must leave, and the miners and black mine slaves also need to be handed over and resettled as soon as possible, otherwise those old people in the Federation will start making trouble again."
Thinking of the reason why the superior suddenly came to inspect the idle mining planets of the Chu family located on the border between the Federation and the Empire, Fan Xiangnan frowned and did not persuade him to leave. Instead, he put away the electronic map, took out the mineral detector, and prepared to start work.
"The instrument is useless. Red tin ore is formed slowly after graystone is blown by energy storms for a long time. It carries heavy radiation, which has a particularly profound impact on mental strength and various rays. The working principle of the mineral detector is radiation. Every time we use it, we will scrap it."
Fan Xiangnan quietly put away the detector - he almost forgot that before his commander was unable to use his mental power and retreated to the second line, he drove a mecha to destroy all his own mining planets and was very familiar with the characteristics of minerals.
Chu Rong glanced at Georgia, who was touching the stone wall in the distance, doing something unknown. He couldn't help but raise his hand and touch the hard gray stone wall beside him, his eyes full of thought.
Mutated red tin ore is extremely difficult to form. It can only form when red tin ore has already formed on the ground and an earthquake occurs by chance to turn the ore into the ground. At the same time, there are some gaps in the ground that allow energy storms to continue to blow in and affect the ore. There are so many mutant red tin ores here, and there must have been a large-scale earthquake in the past. In other words, the geology here is not stable, and they just bombed this place with mechas a few days ago...
Thinking of this, he frowned fiercely and ordered quickly: "Retreat! Immediately!"
Fan Xiangnan, who had just taken out the mining tools, was stunned when he heard this. Seeing that his expression was not right, he did not bother to ask the reason and hurried into the tunnel to call the team members to assemble - the radiation here is serious and the communicator cannot be used. If there is any notification, they can only rely on shouting.
After Chu Rong waited for him to leave, he turned his head to look at the place where Georgia had just stayed, ready to take him away, but he didn't see anyone. He only saw a warm yellow color turning in the distance and disappearing from his sight. His face sank and he strode after him.
Georgia took out the magic stone again and absorbed some magic power, then walked further away, put his hand on the stone wall, and probed the magic into it, with a serious expression.
Just now, when he was using magic to search for minerals, he discovered that in one place, not only was there no mineral reaction, but even the earth had no feedback. The magic power that was probed there was like falling into a black hole and disappeared without a trace.
This is so strange. Logically speaking, earth magic is most powerful when it goes deep underground and should not disappear directly.
He felt something was wrong, and for the safety of the White-haired Monster and others, he began to intentionally explore the size and direction of the unresponsive zone. Just now, he discovered that the unresponsive zone actually extended downward, so he walked further and further along the downward pothole road.
The extended magic power disappeared again, and he withdrew his hand, frowning.
This place is very close to the no-reaction zone, but something seems to be wrong... He squatted down, put his hands on the ground, and directly sent his magic power underground.
The next second, his eyes widened suddenly, and after confirming repeatedly, he took a breath, turned around and ran back from there.
"What are you doing?"
Just as he turned a corner, his body bumped into someone's body, and then his collar was grabbed from behind, and the whole person was lifted up. Chu Rong's face, which was even more ferocious than usual, appeared in front of him.
"Why are you running around? Come back with me." Chu Rong shook him unhappily.
Georgia relaxed her tense body, waved her hands and feet, shouted and gestured, and sweat broke out on the tip of her nose. "Get out of here! There's gravel underneath these hard rocks! Tell those people to stop mining! Go!"
He didn't expect that underneath the hard stone layer, there was actually sand-like gravel that could be easily penetrated by magic. What this meant was self-evident. Once the sand-like gravel changed due to mining, the pits above would most likely collapse completely, and they would be buried alive! It was his fault for being careless. He actually forgot to explore underground before, thinking that the stone wall here was so hard that there should be no danger of collapse.
In short, it is not advisable to stay here for long, leave quickly!
Chu Rong didn't understand what he was saying, and thought he was protesting his grip and wanted to continue digging stones. His expression suddenly became more fierce, and he scolded: "What's so fun about stones? Don't move, stay beside me honestly-"
A commotion suddenly came from the direction of the tunnel. After the vague sound of stones falling, the ground began to shake slowly, and it became more and more violent.
Chu Rong's face changed. He quickly steadied himself and checked the protective shield on Georgia. Then he carried him on his shoulders, turned around and strode towards his subordinates.
Georgia was also confused. She didn't expect the earthquake to come so suddenly. She guessed that it was probably because those people moved something while mining, which affected the unstable gravel layer underneath and caused the ground to shake.
Just as they were approaching the tunnel entrance and could vaguely see the team members lining up and quickly walking out from inside, there was a more violent earthquake. As the ground shook, Georgia stood up and turned her head with difficulty. In her shaking vision, she could only see a large piece of boulder above the team members' heads that was slowly loosening.
Oh no! The hole is collapsing!
He was shocked, and without thinking, he took out the green plant ball that he had used to test whether the food was problematic from the storage ring, threw it hard, and shouted: "Ball, go!"
Chu Rong also immediately noticed something was wrong and shouted to remind them to open the protective shield.
Rumble, rocks fell in large chunks as the ground shook, blocking the road ahead in an instant and completely cutting off the two men from the rest of the team.
Georgia vaguely saw the balls quickly expanding and entangled. She helped all the team members to block the falling rocks and breathed a sigh of relief. She held Chu Rong's shoulders and wanted him to put her down. As a result, before she could open her mouth, her body suddenly felt dizzy. In the blink of an eye, she was firmly trapped in a hard embrace, and then her head was held down. A gnashing voice came to her ears: "What are you moving about! Wait until we get out, and see how I deal with you!"
There was another earth-shaking shaking.
boom--
The rubble fell densely and the cave collapsed completely.
Georgia was awakened by a feeling of suffocation. Her body felt heavy, as if being pressed down by something.
He opened his eyes dazedly, and gradually adjusted to the darkness. He saw Chu Rong's face close at hand. The man who always had a cold and hard expression and looked very unkind now completely relaxed his expression, with his eyes closed. His neat hair became messy, and a few strands fell down to cover his forehead, making him look much gentler and kinder.
"Um……"
A vague groan of pain came from the other person's tightly pursed thin lips, and his handsome eyebrows slowly wrinkled, and then the fierce Chu Rong came back again.
Georgia came to her senses and immediately found something wrong. She turned around and found that the two were lying in a narrow space created by stones. The warm yellow protective shield that had been around them had disappeared, probably because it had broken when it was helping them block the rubble.
He tentatively pushed away the person on top of him, first took out two oxygen supply devices from the storage ring containing mining tools and put them on the two men, then began to check on Chu Rong's condition.
There were no broken bones or bleeding wounds, only a few scratches on the protective suit, revealing the wheat-colored skin underneath.
It's strange. Why does the white-haired monster look so painful when he is clearly not injured?
With doubt in his eyes, he glanced at the rubble around him, and then when he saw a dark red stone, he suddenly remembered that the white-haired monster and his companions were fully armed when they faced it. Realizing something, he reached out to cover the torn part of the white-haired monster's protective suit, but it seemed to be useless. The white-haired monster's expression became even more painful.
