It was so spectacular that Jiang Ji was completely mesmerized.
If he hadn't been tied with a rope around his waist, he probably would have jumped down and carefully studied how this strange sight was formed.
Upon hearing the scream, Li Zongmengguan and Qiu Man couldn't help but follow his example and go to investigate.
Seeing that even the Grand Alliance Official was acting this way, the other bigwigs abandoned their pride and also lay down on the ground to imitate the caterpillar.
When they all blocked the entrance to the cave and saw the scene below, they were so shocked that they couldn't even speak.
My heart and eyes are exactly like Jiang Ji's; there's only one word to describe it.
Seeing that they had been watching for two minutes, Qi Xili stepped forward and pulled them back: "That's enough. If you keep watching, it will hurt your eyes."
Several big shots were too weak to move.
Qi Xili sighed and told them to close their eyes and wait for the guards to regain their composure before rescuing the people one by one.
Inside the space, Bi Qiaoan paced back and forth, wanting to see the scenery they had been talking about. But Li Sikai just wouldn't let her out.
She dared not use her consciousness, afraid he would discover it. After all, this was his territory, and she feared that if she acted recklessly, she would die.
The guards working in the space, as well as those responsible for security who were taking a break, were all itching to get started. They elected a representative to speak with Li Sikai remotely.
"Captain, we want to see it too!"
Li Sikai: "......"
There are so many people in this space, we can't just let them all out to watch.
But they've worked so hard and sacrificed their freedom for so many years, it wouldn't be fair to deny them even this small benefit.
After discussing it with General Li, they decided to release the people, but they still tied ropes beforehand and had them climb over one by one.
"I can only take a quick look, and I have to come back immediately afterward. Otherwise, my legs will go weak and I'll need to be rescued, which would waste time."
The guards nodded and agreed to the somewhat demanding request.
Then Li Sikai released them in batches, letting them peek out of the cave before immediately returning.
Their reactions were almost identical: "Wow! Holy crap! That's spectacular! Oh my god! Let me go back!"
The sounds rose and fell, like a symphony. Shen Yanming and Qi Xili couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Li Sikai was speechless.
Although he felt a little embarrassed, it was rare to see such serious guards so carefree. He was caught up in the atmosphere and laughed too.
After Bi Qiaoan and Nuannuan came out, they also went up to take a look.
The mother and daughter were incredibly brave; they could even walk back. It put many grown men to shame.
Bi Qiaoan didn't rush back to her space, but instead released her consciousness to survey her surroundings.
As a result, nothing could be seen except near the lava. Or perhaps something could be seen, but it would just be pitch black.
The group lingered there for several hours before finally leaving. Even the most popular tourist attractions before the apocalypse couldn't have been this popular.
Once they reached a place where they could drive, Li Sikai released the sightseeing vehicle. He left only twenty guards behind, and stored the rest inside his spatial storage.
The rest of the journey was relatively safe, so the car traveled at a fast pace. The road was clear, and they soon arrived at the first mine.
This mine wasn't large, and Shen Yanming had already collected a batch of stones from it. Even so, it still dazzled a group of big shots.
Ever since entering the mine, Li Sikai has felt refreshed and relaxed. If he could, he would want to live there.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, he put two energy crystals into his spatial storage.
As soon as it entered, it turned into tiny specks, nourishing the already barren land.
General Li asked somewhat nervously, "How is it?"
"Very good, it has been absorbed by the space, effective."
"Then you should take in more!"
Li Sikai shook his head: "The space is too large. This amount of energy crystals is just a drop in the ocean and can't improve the soil at all. There's no need to waste it on me. Let Engineer Jiang and Dean Xu study how to use it for the general public."
Although General Li felt sorry for him, he did not try to persuade him further.
The situation outside is much better now, and I believe that the planet's temperature will return to normal soon.
By then, they will no longer rely on Xiao Kai's space and will definitely have ulterior motives. Rather than leaving a potential threat, it's better to let it collapse and dissipate on its own.
There's a saying, "A loss may turn out to be a blessing in disguise."
So General Lee said, "I respect your decision."
Li Sikai smiled and had someone put the stone into the storage ring provided by Jiang Ji.
However, before they are taken in, they must be weighed, numbered, and registered, which is equivalent to putting them into storage.
It was troublesome, but fortunately there were many people, and it was over after two hours of work.
Looking at the empty cave, which seemed as if the space stone and energy crystal had never existed, Jiang Ji curiously hit the wall with a hammer and then hit the ground.
The wall and floor were incredibly hard, and when he swung the hammer, he was almost knocked over by the reaction force.
After a few attempts, he said, "No, no, this stone is too hard, I can't break it. I'll just pick up the space stones and energy crystals on the ground. Forget about the ones inside the stone wall for now, they're too difficult to develop."
Besides, if there's too much of something, it becomes worthless. We need to keep the general public looking forward to it.
After trying it, General Lee also agreed with this statement.
Although it looks simple, the actual situation is quite complicated. If they're not careful and the passage collapses, wouldn't they suffer a greater loss than they gained?
So they sounded the retreat, rested for two hours, and then set off again.
The following days were spent wandering around the passageway. Jiang Ji filled all the storage rings he had brought before finally reaching the spot where Shen Yanming and the others had fallen. The reason they were able to find it was because Old Shen had marked it.
"Commander Li, this is where we first appeared. What lies ahead, whether it's like the mines we've been to before, nobody knows. What do we do next? Should we continue?"
Is that even a question? Of course!
The group resumed their journey, but the situation ahead was unclear, so the sightseeing bus drove extremely slowly.
Several more mines were discovered afterward, but Jiang Ji no longer had any storage rings.
Anything placed in Li Sikai's space would disappear, so no one dared to let him collect it.
We can only look at it and then keep moving forward.
Shen Yanming was also using his consciousness to observe these mines. At each location, he would check how the ore differed from the previous ones.
But looking at them all, they all seem the same.
Shen Yanming picked out the ones with unusual colors and those that had a slight fluorescent glow and put some into his storage space. He left the ordinary ones untouched.
Time passed day by day, and they had been in the passage for almost a month before they finally reached the end of the passage.
The group cheered, finally about to see the light of day again. But they dug and dug on the cliff face for three days and three nights without making a breakthrough.
Li Sikai asked doubtfully, "Did you really go out like this?"
Qi Xili nodded firmly: "Yes, it only took a few hours to dig through."
