Three hours passed in the blink of an eye, and Chen Wangping returned to the base. His storage grids now contained 286 [Magnetite], 180 [Iron Ore], and 170 [Coal]. It was a bountiful harvest.

He walked to the industrial area and saw that the new manufacturing platform had been built.

Including some that were accumulated before, there are now ten first-level manufacturing stations and one second-level manufacturing station.

Chen Wangping walked over and first assigned five tasks to the second-level manufacturing station to forge armor-piercing bullets and five tasks to forge steel grenades. He then assigned the task of forging standard grenades to all ten first-level manufacturing stations.

At present, the power generation capacity of the home is not much. With this arrangement, the total power is 800W×10+2000W=10kW, and the remaining power from the wind turbine is just enough for lighting.

The arrangements are clear.

“Beep!”

The golden eagle, having rested well, flew over and asked curiously when we would set off.

It has now fallen in love with this base. It can fly freely without worrying about wind and sun, and there are also delicious foods.

It wants to protect this base.

Chen Wangping smiled and said, "Don't worry, let me eat something first. Sharpening the knife doesn't delay the chopping of wood."

After eating and drinking, the things over there were also prepared.

Chen Wangping walked over and took it down, thinking, "Five hundred armor-piercing bullets, one hundred standard grenades, and fifty steel grenades should be enough to kill dozens of bugs."

After getting the things, he arranged for the second-level manufacturing platform to build a first-level mechanical crystal, four first-level manufacturing platforms to build a boiler, and six first-level manufacturing platforms to build a steam generator.

Continue to increase power generation!

After finishing his work, Chen Wangping turned around and glanced at the base, then called out to Diao Bao, "Take off!"

“Beep!”

The golden eagle grabbed the iron rod and flew up, carrying Chen Wangping vertically into the sky.

A few seconds later.

Chen Wangping glanced at the hundreds of meters below and said repeatedly, "Slow down, slow down, it's a bit high."

The golden eagle curled its lips, lowered its distance, and quickly headed towards the place where it had seen the golden-backed beetles frequently appear.

…

Soon after, the golden eagle slowly lowered its altitude and hovered over the mountain where the golden-backed beetles gathered.

Chen Wangping glanced at Huoniu City from afar, then at the nearby mines, and took out his radar to check the surroundings.

It was now late at night and there were no more psychics nearby. The radar showed that only some wasteland creatures were moving around.

Directly in front of him, dozens of grape-sized red dots were standing motionless on the edge of the radar.

"Stand still? What are you waiting for?"

Chen Wangping asked Diaobao to be quiet and ran carefully towards the mine in front.

After running about ten meters, he glanced at the radar and quickly ran back.

Wow, more than 140 golden-backed beetles!

Each of the light spots is the size of a grape, which means they are all second-level monsters.

Moreover, although he didn't see the leader due to the distance, Chen Wangping knew that there must be a big one among them.

Otherwise, why would these golden-backed beetles be so obedient and not move?

To be honest, he felt a little strange.

When he first came here, he thought there would be only dozens of golden-backed beetles, but he didn't expect there would be so many.

Chen Wangping turned around and told the Golden Eagle the news, and warned him, "Diaobao, we must keep our distance from each other later. We must not rush in. Use our long-range advantage and focus on the leader!"

The golden eagle nodded seriously, indicating that if you can't win, just run away.

That's what it did in the Dusk Forest.

As he was speaking, Chen Wangping suddenly heard a rumbling sound coming from the ground. Then, hundreds of golden-backed beetles swarmed out and crawled towards the direction of Mine No. 7.

After these hundreds of golden-backed beetles came out, the golden-backed beetle king, whose body was as big as a millstone, also crawled out. Greed gleamed in its compound eyes and it was very excited.

In fact, what it didn't tell these low-intelligence beetles was that that little human mutant was nothing, and the breath of life energy it felt was the most important.

It senses that if it eats that sapling, it might be able to break through to the next level and become the true Beetle King!

To achieve this goal, it did not hesitate to consume the essence of its life, build a spiritual realm, and call all the golden-backed beetles it could summon nearby to set off together.

Under normal circumstances, it would just stay in the mountain and wait for offerings, and would never show up.

In the sky, the golden eagle carried Chen Wangping to the head of the golden-backed beetle king.

Chen Wangping looked at the red date-sized light spot on the radar and silently took out twenty standard grenades and twenty steel grenades.

He had tested it in the mine before, and his hand speed was very fast now. He just needed to tuck the grenade under his arm and pull the fuse ten times at a time. He could pull it twice in less than a second and release twenty grenades at the same time. Moreover, the acceleration of gravity here was almost the same as in his previous life.

He thought to himself, "The trigger time of a standard grenade is three seconds, and the trigger time of a steel grenade is two seconds. As long as we control the distance well, they can explode at the same time."

Chen Wangping gave some instructions to Golden Eagle, positioned the grenades and started fighting.

The golden eagle received the order and quickly descended to a position about 44 meters above the head of the golden-backed beetle king.

Under the cover of night, the Golden-backed Beetle King did not notice that there were twenty more black spots on his head.

"Swish swish"

Immediately afterwards, the golden eagle quickly descended to a position of nineteen meters.

Chen Wangping once again threw down twenty steel grenades that had been triggered in advance.

After throwing these, the golden eagle quickly carried Chen Wangping away.

Forty grenades fell from the sky, all landing near the Golden-backed Beetle King.
