In the year 18500 of the Star Calendar, war was on the verge of breaking out. Humanity had eliminated the Zerg, conquered the Demon Race, Beast Race, and many other species, but in the end, they co...
Chapter 324
…
Surface warm rocks are common in interstellar space, but they are difficult to mine and contain far less thermal energy than underground warm rocks.
So after the people who came back from patrol last night reported the situation, several team leaders discussed it and felt that since they had discovered the warm stone mine by chance, which was a rare opportunity and not far from the camp, it was like meat delivered to their mouths and could not be missed.
Moreover, the mere fact that if they could mine some underground warming stones and place them in their tents, they would no longer need energy stones for heating would be enough to convince everyone. Students from previous field training sessions had always spared no effort in conserving energy stones.
Several ropes extended to the bottom of the mine, and the students nimbly slid down one by one to the bottom of the cave. Although the light inside was dim, it was very warm. The students, who had just come down from the ice cellar, were surrounded by this warmth and could hardly help but let out a comfortable sigh.
The bottom of the cave was warm. Mu Jiao took off her plush coat and put it into the space button, then looked up and looked around.
This Warm Stone Mine was truly beyond her expectations! Aside from the three on duty, the wounded Imperial Union University soldiers taken in by Ah Ping, and Carter, who was still "forced" to recuperate, they were practically all out. There were about thirty of them, and yet the cave didn't feel crowded at all.
The rocks at the bottom of the cave are undulating and uneven. There are numerous passages of varying sizes around the cave. On the rocky walls, you can see many warm stone prisms that have not yet grown much and emit a faint purple-red color.
"The warm stone vein and the large space at the bottom of the cave indicate rich mineral deposits and many confusing passages. It is indeed a rare underground warm stone mine..." Lan Qi nodded secretly to himself after observing the situation.
"The real passage is in this direction." Ah Ping, who was of the metal element, quickly found the one that led to the main mine from among the several passages. He raised his hand and pointed to a passage that could accommodate five people walking side by side.
"In that case, let's prepare to enter immediately." The four team leaders gathered together to discuss, and Shangguan Yu was the first to speak eagerly.
"Well, although underground warm stones are relatively easy to mine, it takes a lot of time and energy from manpower. If we go there as soon as possible, we can mine more." Zhao Tang also agreed excitedly.
"Well, it's just that this mine may not be completely safe. Let everyone hold their energy guns and be on guard at all times." Bowen added very cautiously.
Under the leadership of several team leaders, everyone soon formed a row of three and began to enter the passage with energy guns in hand.
Ah Ping wanted to stand in a row with Mu Jiao, but before he could come over, Mu Jiao stopped him with a look. He was the team leader now, so what would it mean if he didn't bring his team members with him?
At this moment, Mu Jiao has Lan Qi on her left and Qian Qian on her right. She is walking in the middle. Oh, there is another one, and that is Fang Jia, the classmate right behind her.
The reason Mu Jiao noticed him was because of his shocking words. Not long after Mu Jiao entered the passage, Fang Jia patted her shoulder from behind. She turned around and saw that it was Fang Jia. She was a little frightened and didn't bother to care. But she didn't expect this guy to whisper beside her:
"Mu Jiao, do you feel it's eerie here? I just calculated with my fingers, and there might be bloodshed on this trip. Why don't we talk to the team leader and go back?"
As soon as this guy said this, Mu Jiao almost felt like she had traveled back to her previous life. The tone and words sounded so similar to what the fortune teller at the overpass said...
