Let's solve the problem of ore X62 first.

Otherwise, if too many eggs remain in the X62 ore, it will be difficult to solve the problem.

In order to extract cleaner ore, Lu Yuan abandoned Mine No. 1 and started mining other mines.

Due to the increased difficulty, their mining time this time was very short.

Judging from the speed at which the energy stones were being devoured, Lu Yuan estimated that they only had about three days left.

Three days later, these star worms will completely absorb all the energy stones.

At that time, these star worms will return once again.

If they discover that Lu Yuan has mined a large amount of X62 ore, they might launch an attack on him.

However, preparations and protective measures must be done well; otherwise, the consequences could be disastrous if something goes wrong.

Work officially began, and everyone threw themselves into the frontline tasks.

Mining operations were carried out simultaneously in pits No. 2, No. 3, No. 4, and all the way up to No. 10.

As for the previous system of adjusting work schedules between two or three shifts, it has been completely cancelled.

Lu Yuan even personally took up his post to testify, and joined everyone in digging for ore No. X62.

After three days of hard work, they finally completed all the targets.

Just as everyone was continuously transporting these ores into the warship, bad news arrived.

"It's bad, Mr. Lu. According to our observations, the Star Worms have already absorbed 90% of the energy stones. The remaining energy is simply not enough for them to share, so some of the Star Worms have already begun to return."

Upon hearing this news, Lu Yuan frowned.

"So fast? Have the new villagers who lived in the No. 1 mine pit returned yet?"

The other person's face showed a serious expression, and they shook their head.

"When they absorb these energy stones, their bodies fuse together, so I can't tell now whether there are any Star Worms from Mine No. 1."

Upon hearing these words, Lu Yuan felt a chill run down his spine.

Their bodies are fused together, and now it's hard to tell them apart?

That means they are very likely to be attacked by star worms.

Therefore, the most urgent task is to take these X62 ore pieces away as soon as possible.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Yuan finally made a decision.

How many nuclear weapons do we have left?
