Chapter 7: Treasure Hunt in the Mine, Trap Arrives



Ye Ling took a deep breath and stepped into the abandoned mining area.

A pungent smell of engine oil mixed with an unknown chemical almost drove her away.

This taste is amazing!

Worse than her three-day-unwashed socks!

The light in the mining area was dim, and she couldn't see her hand in front of her face. If it weren't for the mecha's built-in night vision function, she would have fallen flat on her face.

Fortunately, I am a veteran of hundreds of battles - bah, Ye Ling who has experienced hundreds of pitfalls!

She carefully controlled the mecha forward, and complained in her heart about the damn detection system, whose reaction speed was as slow as an eighty-year-old grandmother crossing the road.

Suddenly, there was a strange noise under her feet, and before she could react, the ground collapsed!

"Oh my god! What's going on?!" Ye Ling exclaimed, and the mecha fell down instantly. After a dizzying spin, it crashed heavily to the bottom of the trap.

"Cough cough cough..." Ye Ling felt as if all his internal organs were displaced. This trap was real!

She tried to control the mecha, but found that some functions were temporarily malfunctioning due to the impact.

"No way, is this too late?" Ye Ling's heart sank. This was no joke. If he got trapped here, he would just become a fossil specimen in the mining area.

calm!

Must stay calm!

Ye Ling took a few deep breaths and began to analyze the situation.

She carefully observed the structure of the trap and found that strange energy patterns were flashing on the wall, like some kind of ancient runes.

Wait, this energy flow...

Looks a little familiar!

Ye Ling suddenly remembered the information she had read in the college library before. The triggering mechanism of this trap was actually related to the energy flow in the mining area!

Just do it!

Ye Ling quickly adjusted the energy output of the mecha, trying to offset the energy fluctuations of the trap.

Done!

The mecha vibrated slightly, slowly floated up, and escaped from the trap.

"Great! I really am a genius!" Ye Ling clenched her fists excitedly and was about to praise herself when she suddenly heard a noisy sound coming from far away...

"Who's there?" Ye Ling had just climbed out of the trap, and before he had time to celebrate his cleverness, he heard a chaotic sound of footsteps, accompanied by the clinking sound of metal colliding, getting closer and closer.

"I can't be so unlucky, right?" Ye Ling wailed inwardly. What was going on, getting out of the tiger's den and into the wolf's lair?

The next second, a group of burly men appeared in front of her. The leader was a guy with a face full of flesh and fierce eyes. He was the bully of the mining area - Li Tie.

"Hey, isn't this the good-for-nothing Ye Ling? Why, are you here to look for treasure too?" Li Tie's tone was full of sarcasm, and his eyes swept over her shabby mecha as if he was looking at a piece of fat meat.

Ye Ling rolled her eyes inwardly. This Li Tie was really haunting her.

She pretended to be scared and stammered, "I...I was just looking around..."

"Just take a look? I think you want to steal something!" A skinny monkey behind Li Tie said sarcastically.

"No, no, I didn't find anything..." Ye Ling continued to pretend to be timid, but she was thinking about how to get out of this situation.

It's obvious that this group of people are not good people. If we confront them head-on, we will definitely suffer losses. Among the thirty-six strategies, running away is the best one!

"Stop talking nonsense! Hand over all your things!" Li Tie waved his hand impatiently, and the minions behind him immediately surrounded him, staring at Ye Ling with murderous eyes.

"Brother, I really didn't..." Ye Lingse shrank her body, pretending to retreat in fear, and quietly led them to a mechanism area deep in the mining area that she had discovered before.

"If you don't accept my toast, you'll have to pay me back!" Li Tie's face darkened when he saw that she was not cooperating. He was about to take action when suddenly, the ground shook and countless hidden arrows shot out from all directions. Then, the ground cracked and spewed out high-temperature steam and corrosive liquid.

"Ahhh!" Screams rang out one after another. Li Tie and others were caught off guard by the mechanism and were in a mess.

Ye Ling took advantage of the chaos to start the mecha and fled the scene, leaving the cursing voices of Li Tie and others echoing in the mining area.

Ye Ling, who escaped from the danger, did not let down her guard. She knew that deeper in the mining area, there were more unknown dangers waiting for her.

Suddenly, the mecha's detector issued a "beeping" alarm sound, and a powerful energy fluctuation appeared on the screen.

"What...is this?" Ye Ling muttered, controlling the mecha and slowly driving towards the direction of the energy fluctuation...

"It's not another trap, is it?"
