Yang Shen absolutely could not allow this to happen. If they walked slowly, carrying necessary supplies, how long would it take?
Can we get there in ten days?
He didn't want to waste another day; three years was already too long.
After navigating the bumpy road, Yang Shen headed towards the excavated passage.
Soon, he arrived at the end of the passage, releasing his mental energy that penetrated the thick soil and rocks.
"Can mental power scan the other side?"
Yang Shen was delighted, as his mental power covered a radius of thirty meters.
The phrase "30 meters in diameter" means that the longest part of any object, whether square or round, is 30 meters, or in other words, its diameter is 30 meters.
The radius is only fifteen meters.
Since mental energy can scan the other side, it means that the remaining thickness of the soil and rocks is less than fifteen meters.
"About twelve or thirteen meters!"
This thickness is quite thick, but not unacceptable. If everyone digs together, it should be done in half a day.
"Perhaps I can dig through faster!"
Yang Shen thought of something, walked out of the tunnel, came to a spacious place, and waved his hand to open the ultra-low-level small world passage.
Immediately afterwards, a large amount of nanomaterials flowed out of the channel like a fluid and piled up on the ground.
After removing all the nanomaterials, he waved his hand again, removing the corpses of the white goose and the snake, and taking out everything from the ultra-low-level world.
He took out the steel needle pistol and the flamethrower and put them in his pocket, leaving everything else on the ground.
Although he is now far from the pseudo-Five Elements Beads, Yang Shen can still control the ultra-low-level small world, just like a personal space.
After taking everything out, Yang Shen closed the ultra-low-level small world passage, returned to the end of the buried tunnel, opened the small world passage there, and with a wave of his hand, the pile of soil and rocks disappeared into thin air and were collected into the small world.
Because the passage to the ultra-low-level small world is connected to a fixed spatial node in the outside world, once it is opened, it cannot be moved and must be closed before it can be opened again in another location.
Therefore, after collecting the nearby soil and rocks, Yang Shen had to close the passage and open it in another location.
After repeatedly opening and closing the passage, Yang Shen discovered a magical phenomenon: anything within one meter of the passage could be instantly collected, regardless of direction (front, back, left, right, up, down), and without the need for strenuous carrying.
Soon, the entire ultra-low-level miniature world, with a diameter of two meters, was filled with soil and rocks, and the tunnel was dug more than one meter deep.
He closed the tunnel, went outside, dumped the soil and rocks outside the road, and returned to the tunnel to continue excavating.
As he continued this process and gradually became more proficient, Yang Shen was able to open and close the tunnel instantly, and his digging speed increased significantly, allowing him to make a round trip almost every minute.
Fifteen minutes passed in the blink of an eye. After Yang Shen collected another pile of soil and rocks, the tunnel was finally opened, and a stench of decay wafted out.
"We've finally dug through. Hopefully, the other side hasn't collapsed."
Yang Shen did not relax and continued to collect the remaining soil and stones.
After collecting the last bit of soil and stone, he strode into the depths of the tunnel.
The tunnel was pitch black deep inside, but it didn't affect Yang Shen much. He could not only see through the darkness, but also had the mental power to scan it.
The tunnel was very long; based on his memories of traveling to and from the city during the apocalypse, Yang Shen remembered it to be about 800 meters long.
As they continued deeper into the tunnel, after walking three or four hundred meters, Yang Shen's expression suddenly hardened.
Ahead, a dilapidated car was parked there. What truly surprised Yang Shen was that the car and its surroundings were covered in snakes.
The tunnel floor ahead was covered with a dense mass of snakes.
The smallest of those snakes was only as thick as a chopstick, while the largest was as thick as a thigh.
A large number of snakes were wriggling and darting in front of us.
"Has this place become a snake's den?"
This was the first time Yang Shen had ever seen so many snakes. Although he wasn't afraid of snakes, he still felt a chill run down his spine.
When Yang Shen discovered the snake nest, the snakes also noticed him. Immediately, snakes of varying sizes flicked their tongues and slowly approached Yang Shen.
"snort!"
Yang Shen released his aura directly, and the snakes were immediately frightened into not daring to move. Some of the larger snakes, which should have undergone evolution, quickly fled.
"Let's kill them all, otherwise it will cause a lot of trouble for the convoy!"
Yang Shen took out a flamethrower from his pocket. Here, even a steel needle pistol wasn't as effective as a flamethrower.
The trigger was pulled, and a bright red beam of light, as thick as a chopstick, shot out. The next moment, it turned into a raging inferno a hundred meters in front of the tunnel, engulfing the entire tunnel.
The firelight illuminated the entire tunnel, and the light could be seen even from outside the tunnel.
"Hiss hiss hiss..."
Large numbers of snakes were burned to ashes in an instant; even those snakes that had evolved were burned to death in just one second.
Even those outside the flames did not escape the calamity, because the temperature there was too high, and the snakes that were not burned by the flames were quickly charred and killed.
"boom--"
Suddenly, the car covered by the snake pit exploded. It turned out that the fuel tank could not withstand the high temperature, and the gasoline inside ignited and exploded.
Yang Shen hurriedly released the trigger, genuinely worried that the massive explosion would cause the tunnel to collapse.
Because this is the deepest part of the tunnel, if a large amount of soil and rocks were to fall, even he couldn't guarantee he would survive.
Fortunately, although the car fuel tank explosion was frightening, the force was not particularly great, and the tunnel remains intact.
Soon, the flames dimmed, leaving only the exploding car still burning, its flickering light illuminating the tunnel in darkness.
