Chapter 152 Discovery

In doubt, Li Yi replied:

"No offense, but we now have reasonable evidence to suspect that you have violated federal law. Please do not interfere with our performance of official duties."

Bian Long Wan Dao:

"We were all mecha masters before, and we all contributed to the Federation. How about giving them some face?"

Li Yi said: "Of course I will give you face, but I can only guarantee that your mining area will not be damaged during the inspection. But if we really find that you have privately excavated the ruins, then we will have no choice."

Bian Longwan's voice was slightly deep, and he said, "Okay, you guys go ahead and test it."

As he spoke, the red light in the eyes of the 20-meter-long mecha driven by Bian Longwan dimmed, and the roar of the nuclear engine on standby also subsided, and it began to wait outside.

On the public channel, Zhang Pengting said in surprise:

"Long Wan is so calm here, is there anything wrong with this place?"

Lin Huiyi said:

"Maybe they are trying to make a feint to the east and attack in the west. They are here to stop us and delay time, and then arrange for another group of people to pack up their equipment. As long as they are not caught in the act, even if there are traces all over the ground, they will have an excuse to shirk responsibility."

"As for whether the ruins will be in the hands of the Federation, I'm afraid that's no longer something they need to consider. After all, the most likely issue they're facing now is how to resolve the punishment issue."

Liang Zhishen also said: "Yes, it is understandable that local powerful families are becoming bigger, but if they want to break the rules of the game and secretly manipulate the evolvers to dig up the ruins and wantonly destroy all kinds of precious samples, causing a large amount of precious war resources to flow into the black market, causing the front line to be tight, that is the biggest problem."

Everyone knows that this is not an exaggeration, but it is indeed a very serious incident of destruction of relics.

Even if ordinary powerful clans can recruit and raise evolvers, they are quite unconventional evolvers who lack qualified technical and tactical levels and reasonable knowledge of relic protection and exploration.

Blind mining is likely to disrupt the operation of the entire ruins and even destroy many seemingly insignificant precious items.

This is what hurts the most.

Without the professional level to do this, even if they can make huge profits, it will naturally be far inferior to the mature and sustainable development processes of the federal fleets.

Moreover, if a large number of items flow into the black market, it will in turn strengthen the evil cult forces among the people and cause great damage to the stability within the federation.

It is a crime that must be severely punished.

Even though everyone's responsibilities are not here, since they discovered this matter while searching for the ruins, they naturally cannot ignore it.

At that time, the corresponding federal investigators will naturally investigate and confirm who is the mastermind and who is the accomplice.

As for the Zheng family, they have a large family and a huge business, so it is naturally a good thing for them to clean up an uncontrollable tumor at the same time.

The only people who are unhappy are probably the group of people who benefited from the discovery and development of this relic.

As he spoke, Li Yi confirmed that all personnel had left the mining area, then he controlled the Pluto mecha and punched the ground.

The next punch was naturally not a pure destructive punch, but a shock force transmitted by soft power, which spread out in all directions and quickly transmitted to all sides of the ground.

With his current level of power as fast as flowing water, it would be easier for him to complete this move, and the effect would naturally be higher.

Soon, the Pluto Mecha, with its palms pressed against the ground, immediately pictured a specific underground scene in its mind.

"There are no suspicious areas within a thousand meters underground."

The Pluto mecha took off, and under the propulsion of gravity, flew to another open space and punched downwards.

After three such operations, Li Yi said on the public channel: "There is no problem here. To prevent these people from destroying related items, Jiang Chaoqun, you go to the second target area to guard it; Instructor Liang and Lin Xiaohu, the third area; Xu Weilu and Teng Juli, the fourth area; Tan Haode and Zhang Pengting, the fifth area; Lin Huiyi and Hu Yitong go to the sixth area!"

"Act quickly. Once I finish inspecting the seventh area, I'll go to your place immediately!"

Without hesitation, everyone started up immediately, with thruster flames rising up and shooting away.

The remaining Bian Longwan watched as the ten divine mechas suddenly dispersed and left without any instructions, and immediately guessed that they were going to split up into several groups to prevent their people from actually evacuating.

He panicked immediately and sent a message, shouting, "The exploration team from the border planet is here. Each of them is a B-class or C-class mecha close to B-class. They are very powerful. I'm afraid they have discovered our secret. Don't take the things. Get out first. If you get caught, you're done for!"

…

The Pluto mecha streaked across the sky like a meteor.

With a buzzing sound, the Pluto mecha landed on the ground and followed the same method, ordering the excavators in the mining area to leave immediately.

At the same time, observe their state when they leave, everyone's expression, and the marks on their bodies to confirm whether they are insiders or whether this place is the real location of the ruins.

If there really are relics here, then these people must have subtle traces that are different from those in the outside world.

After all, the remains of ancient divine civilizations all have one thing in common, that is, they are self-contained and the environment is completely different from the outside world.

These completely different environments can even have subtle differences in the types of dust in the air.

With Li Yi's ability to conduct remote observation and analysis with the help of the divine mecha, he can naturally identify this more easily.

It can even be said that in Li Yi's eyes now, these differences are as clear as candlelight in the dark night.

However, after observing it for a while, I found that there was no problem.

After the people dispersed, he controlled the Pluto mecha to punch downwards in the surrounding area, performing a softened shock technique.

After doing this several times, he sketched out the corresponding scene in his mind, and after confirming that there was nothing unusual, he immediately left.

Excluding the time spent waiting for the absentee group to leave, it only took about ten seconds in total.

After a round of operations like this, when we arrived at the second area where Jiang Chaoqun was, we won the prize.

…

"Captain Li, those people are suspicious, they are all evolvers, I have isolated them."

Jiang Chaoqun said.

When the Pluto mecha landed in front of Jiang Chaoqun's Xiguang mecha, Li Yi saw a dozen more evolvers standing in the corner outside the mining area, with bitter expressions on their faces as if they were waiting for judgment.

Obviously, they also knew that what had happened had already happened and they could neither escape nor resist.

After all, two huge divine mechas of seventy or eighty meters in length, just standing there, no matter how powerful their divine skills were, they probably wouldn't even leave a trace.

It's just like a mosquito tickling an itch.

The divine mecha only needs to lift its foot lightly and they will be crushed into a pulp.

now.

The Pluto Mecha stopped, turned on the detection system, and carefully observed these evolvers.

After observing for a moment, Li Yi smiled slightly.

Yes, it seems to be going smoothly. The fine dust attached to the surface of these evolvers has an overall composition that is quite different from the surrounding area, and is also very different from the environment that should exist in the mine.

Apparently, these evolvers were indeed employed by the local Zheng family to excavate and develop the entire ruins.

On the public channel, Li Yi said:

"Everyone, have you found anything suspicious? Are all the personnel normal miners?"

Many people responded one after another, saying that no suspicious persons were found.

Li Yi said: "Very good, it seems that there are no extra entrances to the ruins. Now, everyone immediately head to the second area. The existence of ruins has been confirmed here, hurry up!"

As he spoke, the Pluto mecha also bombarded the ground to confirm for the second time whether there were any ruins.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Soon, the Pluto mecha stopped moving.

Jiang Chaoqun saw that the actions of the Pluto mecha were completely different from before. Although he already knew that it was very likely a relic, he still couldn't help but be ecstatic: "Fuck, it can't be that powerful. Did they really find the first target?"

Amid Jiang Chaoqun's ecstasy, other team members arrived one after another.

"Instructor Zhang, I remember you are from the Vulcan sequence, right? Could you please fire a wave of divine energy cannons to expand this mine shaft to a point where our three divine mechas can enter at least."

As he spoke, Li Yi controlled the Pluto mecha and pointed to one of the large mines.

Zhang Pengting nodded upon hearing this, controlled his C-class Chipeng mecha, came to the mine, and opened his mouth to spit out a fierce divine energy cannon.

Unlike Tan Haoran, whose main characteristic is 'melting', Zhang Pengting's main characteristic is 'drying', which is the property that can instantly empty the water atoms inside an object.

When applied to human combat, it is extremely powerful, but when applied to mecha combat, its special effects are not very prominent.

In addition, although he has a solid foundation in fighting skills, he still has little experience in actual combat.

Therefore, although he is also a master who has condensed 26 divine genes, the actual combat capability of his divine mecha is not as good as Liang Zhishen.

However, even so, his divine mecha can also use the 'melt' feature normally, but the effect is much worse than the main feature.

Soon, a huge passage entrance was melted out in the underground mine.

Everyone stretched their heads to look and found a different world.

Below, strange auras slowly rose along with white mist as the ground was melted by high temperatures.

A series of huge spikes, completely different from the surrounding ones, appeared in the vast space below.

Each of the pointed cones is a hundred meters in size and has a regular shape. It is obvious that they are not naturally generated but carved.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Looking deeper, the dissipated divinity is floating freely.

Lin Huiyi said happily:

"We won the prize! Now it's not just a fantasy for our entire team to get into the top ten!"

After all, Planet 33 is also the target she advocates for.

Although it was Li Yi who provided a lot of evidence and deduced the suspicious area in the end.

But this did not stop Lin Huiyi from being happy.

At least it proves that her eyesight is better than others except Li Yi! ...

at the same time.

The command tower of the border star main base.

Under the massive surveillance screen, Xiaozhuang suddenly grabbed the communicator and said:

"Generals, it looks like Team Li Yi has discovered an entrance to the ruins."

After a while, Lu Yunsheng and He Guangzhi suddenly appeared behind Xiaozhuang.

"Which planet, which monitor?"

Xiao Zhuang said, "Planet 33, monitors numbered 66 to 99, these thirty-odd monitors are now fully monitoring the movements of Li Yi's group. It seems that their actions have really made some discoveries."

The two quickly observed.

With the eyesight of the two top masters, they naturally saw the corresponding images on the surveillance screen very quickly.

During this observation, the special images displayed on the monitors, the rows of sharp and straight 100-meter-long spikes, and the flickering images caused by the free divine energy...

This is undoubtedly a special scene that can only be seen in ancient divine ruins.

The two looked at each other and were both quite surprised.

"Did they really find the heritage ruins?"

"So it turns out that the truth is hidden under the lamp, and the ruins were hidden by Zheng's Mining?"

Suddenly, He Guangzhi shrugged and laughed:

"This is really a case of looking for something without any effort. We have organized a team to explore so many planets before, but we actually overlooked Zheng's mining area."

Lu Yunsheng shook his head and said:

"We didn't ignore Zheng's mining area, but we focused on those planets with less development. Because of our trust in Zheng and the federal investigation team, we didn't even read the report carefully. We just listened to the report and let it go after confirming that there was no problem."

The two are reviewing their respective dereliction of duty.

Actually, it’s hard to blame them.

Because they have the need to break through, they spend most of their daily time practicing.

In addition to practicing, one also has to pay more attention to whether there are any powerful people of the Heavenly Rank invading the outer borders. One does not have time to focus on too many trivial matters on a daily basis.

For tasks like searching for heritage relics, we usually delegate the task and receive regular reports.

The people below continued to have no results, and over time, the search targets were no longer in the area around the border star, but were getting farther and farther away.

As a result, there will naturally be no long-term results.

Xiao Zhuang said: "Generals, is it too early to conclude that this is a heritage relic? Is it possible that it is some other relic?"

He Guang's way:

"Even if it's not a heritage site, it's still a site, and the benefits won't be low. Xiaozhuang, you've been watching the actions of the ten teams the whole time. Tell me, how did Li Yi's team find this location?"

Lu Yunsheng was also quite curious about this question.

Even if it was dark under the lamp, how could the other party hit the target in such a short time? From the official start of the third round to the discovery of the ruins, the total time was less than 15 hours.

Taking into account the entire voyage, in other words, they were so efficient because they had decided on the target location from the beginning.

Otherwise, it would be unreasonable to just say that it was good luck.

Xiao Zhuang said, "I don't know. They set their sights on Planet 33 as soon as they flew out of space. A few seconds after landing, the entire army was dispatched. They first went to a mining area, communicated with the local Zheng family leader, punched the ground a few times, and then dispersed to seven areas."

"Then, Li Yi's Pluto mecha punched the ground of the remaining seven areas all the way. When it reached the third area, it called back the scattered teams."

"After that, I ordered Zhang Pengting's Fire Peng mecha to fire an energy cannon at one of the mines, and the entrance to the ruins was revealed."

The two were confused. What was going on? There was not even a single detail. Lu Yunsheng frowned and asked, "Where are your details? After all these years, why are you still so long-winded and not getting to the point? Can you be brief and concise?"

Xiao Zhuang complained, "I described everything truthfully. That's what they did. If you don't believe me, you two generals can check the playback records on the surveillance camera."

Immediately, Xiaozhuang adjusted the screen and played back all the recorded information of the entire tracking process.

The two of them finished reading it quickly and fell into silence.

Is it really as Xiaozhuang described? Just run to the target location and keep punching? He Guangzhi reached out to control the page, repeatedly observing the details, and then thought:

"This detail is crucial. You see, after Li Yi destroyed the first area, he should have ordered several other mechas to intercept other suspicious areas."

"Their decisive actions show that they had discussed the specific action plan in advance, and they are all convinced that there are ruins in these areas."

"Combined with the fact that they headed straight for Planet 33 when they set out, it is clear that they confirmed their target with extremely high accuracy before they set out."

Lu Yunsheng listened to He Guangzhi's words and hesitated, "Old He, do you mean that there is something wrong with Li Yi's group? Did they know from other channels that Zheng's family had hidden the relics from the beginning?"

"Could this be a show?"

He Guangzhi shook his head and said, "You're overthinking it. If it was a show, they wouldn't have acted so openly. Xiaozhuang, check the data search records and reading records of Li Yi's team over the past few days to see what data they have been reading recently."

Xiao Zhuang said: "I don't have the authority, Generals. Li Yi's confidentiality level is very high."

He Guangzhi smiled and said, "Li Yi is such a genius, it's normal that the confidentiality level is very high. Most likely he is a participant in the Tianshen Mecha Project. Please step aside and I will check."

Xiaozhuang was also a participant in the God Mecha Project, and nodded slightly when he heard this.

As he spoke, He Guangzhi quickly reviewed the information.

The expression of surprise on his face became more and more intense.
