Early the next morning, the turtle set out for the possible location of the secret gold mine. However, the place was now submerged by sea water, and in the absence of satellites for accurate positioning, it could only be measured and positioned through reference objects that could still be found.
Looking around on the sea, all you can see is sea water. Fortunately, they can use aircraft to take large-scale photos at high altitudes to form a map, so that they will not lose their way.
In order to accurately find the base in the sea, it is necessary to compare the current known locations with the original map and perform repeated cross-calculations, so that the original base’s current location can be accurately found.
Fortunately, this process was handed over to Anna. In addition to these, she needed to measure the speed of the turtle and be able to accurately determine the turtle's direction and location at any time.
Now, with the help of several software engineers, Anna has had a variety of auxiliary systems added to her original program, which has greatly helped her growth.
Moreover, after obtaining Jiang Feng's permission, he also created his own clone on the supercomputer to assist in handling all tasks of the entire castle. This is also one of the important reasons why the entire castle can operate efficiently.
Two hours later, the turtle arrived at the designated location, and everyone immediately took action. After preliminary measurements, it was determined that the water depth here was about 60 meters, and there were indeed remains of a ruin under the sea. After the combat team members drove the "earth dog" into the water, they immediately began to drive away the surrounding sea fish and other marine life.
The aircraft also began to hover in the air for reconnaissance, driving away seabirds or monitoring the movements of large sea beasts in the sea. Once any situation occurs, it will be reported to Jiang Feng immediately. As an aerial flying unit, the aircraft has a variety of uses.
At the same time, Jiang Feng and Zhongli also began to act. Because this mission involved extremely important materials such as the secret gold mine, he was also prepared to conduct exploration and excavation personally.
Ah Huang and Yinglong were responsible for guarding the top of the castle and acting as Jiang Feng's eyes, keeping an eye on the situation above at all times. Once anything happened, they could immediately notify him. The mutant termites began to control the deformation of the metal, and they would also follow Jiang Feng into the water to assist in the excavation task later.
After putting on their armor, Jiang Feng and Su Xue went directly into the water. The Flower Fairy was responsible for controlling the Blood Forest to assist in defense. If secret gold was dug up, she would also need to control the Blood Forest to salvage the secret gold from the sea.
Zhongli was responsible for assisting in the air while paying attention to the surrounding situation. Just a flying vehicle could not make Jiang Feng feel at ease. It would not be too much to be nervous above this endless ocean.
After entering the water, the combat team members and Jiang Feng began to search with the ruins as the center. The metal termite was more conducive to swimming after its deformation and was now following behind them. Once a discovery was made, it could be immediately used to dig.
However, the situation on the seabed is not as good as imagined. Various seaweeds have covered the entire seabed, and the fleeing sea fish have also made the water here quite turbid. Fortunately, Su Xue is by Jiang Feng's side. After she went into the sea, she began to use her ability to emit sound waves for detection.
However, after they circled around the ruins, they still didn't gain much. Instead, they discovered some secret gold in the ruins at the beginning, which made Jiang Feng sure that they were not in the wrong place.
After one circle, Jiang Feng ordered to return to the sea surface for breathing and rest. It is not an easy task to find something on the seabed. He can only search slowly by expanding the search range little by little.
"call!"
After surfacing from the sea, Jiang Feng took a deep breath. After all, the defensive barrier created by the rune armor could only store a limited amount of air, so long-term diving operations were unrealistic.
"Uncle, do you want to expand the search area?"
"Don't worry, just take it one step at a time!"
After resting for a while, they dived into the sea again, and just like before, they were responsible for searching their respective areas.
The combat team members are not the main force of the search. They are mainly responsible for driving away sea fish and defending against attacks from sea beasts. Jiang Feng and Su Xue are the main force of the search. Su Xue uses sound waves to detect places where there may be ores on the seabed, while Jiang Feng uses his supernatural powers to detect the metal content in the ores.
In this way, the scope was continuously expanded, and Jiang Feng and Su Xue finally discovered the existence of a secret gold mine in a pit more than a thousand meters away from the ruins. After letting the metal termites dig downwards for a while, a large amount of secret gold mines were immediately exposed.
What followed was a series of excavation processes. First, the turtle was allowed to swim over and use its earth and stone abilities to dig out all the secret gold mines under the sea. Then, the metal termites were allowed to extract the secret gold from the secret gold mines. Then, the flower fairy controlled the blood forest to fish all the secret gold out of the sea water and bring it to the castle. The others were responsible for moving the secret gold to the warehouse for storage.
This secret gold mine has not been mined much, which means that Jiang Feng and his team have obtained an entire secret gold mine this time, and judging from the size of this secret gold mine, it is bigger than the one they had robbed before!
The turtles and a large number of metal termites were mining at a very fast speed, but the mining was not completed after sunset. So far, they have obtained more than 60 tons of secret gold!
"Rest first tonight! And everyone will be rewarded with double points!"
Jiang Feng was in a very good mood after obtaining such a harvest. The importance of secret gold to them was self-evident. The acquisition of fifty tons of secret gold directly allowed them to develop the rune technology to its current level!
Although fifty tons may seem like a lot, its volume is actually only eight cubic meters. He usually uses it very economically. Every time he arranges a rune formation, he has to separate the previous secret gold and use it again.
So there's no need to worry about how valuable the secret gold mine we obtained this time is. It turned out that leaving the mainland was the right decision! The ocean is simply an inexhaustible treasure!
Everyone else shouted with joy after hearing Jiang Feng's words. Now, points are currency in the castle. Food, clothing, supplies, weapons and equipment all require points to exchange. Double point rewards are rare!
The turtle did not leave here at night, but the combat team members and mutant termites had returned to the castle and began to rest.
After a night, they continued mining the next day. The deeper they went underground, the more difficult it became. This was mainly because the turtle's ability to control the soil and rocks weakened with increasing distance. In the end, it was completely impossible to turn over the secret gold mine under the ground.
Therefore, the excavation mission can only end here. Although it is possible to dig deeper using manpower or metal termites, the amount of crystal cores and other materials required will be exaggerated to a terrifying level.
In the end, Jiang Feng could only let the turtle pile up the turned-out soil and rocks into an island as a mark, and decided to come back to continue digging after the turtle became stronger.
By the afternoon, all the work was basically finished. A total of about 110 tons of secret gold were excavated, which was an unexpected gain for them.
Then they left here and continued to move forward along the shallow sea. According to the news from those Japanese, there were also many organizations in Japan that knew about the end of the world in advance, and their targets were none other than these remaining forces!
