Chapter 12 Rescuing a Pregnant Woman on the Side
The first to rush out were naturally the two guards who were watching the entrance to the mine tunnel. As soon as they climbed out of the tunnel, Xiaobai threw two lumps of ice at them, freezing them into ice blocks.
Having had his abilities restricted by the suppression ring for two whole days, one can imagine the frustration he felt. He wished he could just kill all the overseers in the mine.
He then detected two more supervisors nearby, who were playing cards in a room. They rushed out of the room after hearing the alarm and were also given two lumps of ice by Xiaobai.
The four he killed all had C-level abilities, which was slightly inferior to Borg's C-level ability.
A C-level ability is equivalent to a fifth-order ability on Green Algae Star. For Xiaobai, a tenth-order ability user, facing them is like cutting melons and vegetables; it's effortless.
Matt continued searching for the slave numbers of his people on the remote control screen, while simultaneously extending his mental network to search for any threats in the vicinity.
Then he saw more than twenty people rush out of a group of buildings about five kilometers away from the mining area.
Judging from their eagerness, they must be the private guard of the Huajing family that Borg mentioned.
They ran to an open space and channeled their spiritual energy into a small pendant in their hand. The pendant quickly transformed into a giant robot over ten meters tall.
Is this the mecha warrior that Mao Li explained to them during their journey?
Upon arriving in the Streamlight Galaxy, this was the first time Matt had ever seen a real mecha warrior, and he was utterly awestruck!
If their Green Algae Planet possessed such a weapon, humanity would have already wiped out those mutated beast lairs.
Matt could sense that the people piloting these mechs were all at a high level of superpowers, averaging around B-level, equivalent to a seventh-tier superpowered individual on Green Algae Star.
If it were a one-on-one fight, he certainly wouldn't be afraid.
According to Mao Li, the mech is equipped with large-scale thermal weapons and also possesses extremely strong defensive capabilities.
If he were to face these mecha warriors with similar superpowers bare-handed, he would definitely be nothing more than easy prey.
Apart from Xiaobai and Boyiyan, the others in their group would probably just lie down and get utterly crushed by the mecha warriors.
The best course of action now is to flee.
Unfortunately, he only managed to unlock Bo Yiyan and Mina, leaving Mao Li, Lele, and Liu Lin ununlocked.
Before entering the mining area, all slaves were told that if they escaped the mining area without permission, the suppression ring would explode.
This is a program pre-set by the buyer, and it is also one of the functions of the suppression loop.
Therefore, you can only leave this place after all your own people have unlocked it.
But given the speed of those mechs, they could probably get here in just a few dozen seconds.
This is because the alarm only mentioned the deaths of three slaves, and they were not in a great hurry.
After all, the lives of slaves were worthless in their eyes. If they weren't worried about failing the mining task, they wouldn't care even if all the slaves died.
This mining area is actually very large, with several thousand slaves working here.
The area under the jurisdiction of Borg and his four men was a mineral vein that had been mined to the end.
Because the mineral resources are not abundant, this new batch of slaves was sent here. The truly experienced old miners are in other rich mining areas.
As a result, Bog and his men were very lax in their management. Usually, Bog divided his four men into two groups, who took turns going down into the mine to guard the entrance to the mine tunnel.
Every time Borg made an excuse to send his underlings away from their posts, they actually guessed that Borg wanted to take the opportunity to secretly absorb some fragments of purple star stones.
This item wasn't very valuable, and the higher-ups didn't care much about it, so they naturally pretended not to know and happily slipped back to their rooms to chat or play cards.
Otherwise, Matt would never have had the chance to be alone with Borg.
No matter how fast Matt rushed things, there was no way he could unlock the last three before the guards arrived. He had a sudden inspiration and said, "Mina, use the tornado to take us all to the next mining area."
“Okay!” Mina nodded decisively.
Just then, two people climbed up from the mine entrance; they were their fellow prisoners, Zhuolun and Anya.
Zhuolun gasped, "Please, take Anya with you! She's six months pregnant!"
Although he didn't know how Matt and the others unlocked the suppression ring, he personally witnessed Xiaobai among them using ice-type abilities, and the level of his abilities was extremely high.
Zhuolun felt that this was his wife and unborn child's only hope for survival.
For the past two days, he had been following behind the others watching them mine, and he witnessed three people die in the purple poisonous fog.
He didn't want to die, so he never dared to go mining. The couple secretly wandered through the mine tunnels, looking for a chance to escape.
The moment they heard the alarm, they rushed to the mine entrance and saw Xiaobai kill two guards.
He actually wanted to kill them, but with the suppression ring on him, he couldn't use his powers and couldn't kill them at all.
Mina glanced at the adults, and Xiaobai, perhaps thinking of Xi'er who was still in Zuo Shan's belly, and then looking at Anya with her big belly, hesitated for less than two seconds before nodding.
Mina possesses a sixth-tier wind-type ability, making it easy for her to take away ten or twenty people over short distances. Furthermore, once her tornado skill is activated, almost no one can track her.
The next second, Zhuolun and his wife felt a gust of wind around them, so strong that they couldn't open their eyes.
When they were able to open their eyes, they found themselves being held in the middle of a gentle breeze, surrounded by a raging tornado.
"My God! There are such amazing superpowers in this world! They're incredible!" Anya exclaimed.
"Mart, immediately mark the locations of all the foremen in the nearest mining area," Xiaobai instructed.
“Sir, I have marked the locations of all the mine supervisors and marked them,” Matt replied.
He transmitted the location to Xiaobai and Bo Yiyan's minds. This was the first time Bo Yiyan had witnessed Matt's skill, and he couldn't help but praise, "Mat, you're practically a human detector."
"Unfortunately, long-range attacks can only mark targets, not wipe out the entire team," Matt said with a regretful expression.
Xiao Bai immediately instructed Mina to find a relatively secluded abandoned mine tunnel and settle the people who hadn't had time to unlock it yet.
He and Bo Yiyan each took half the responsibility and prepared to wipe out all the mine supervisors.
After the two left, Matt continued to unlock the suppression ring.
First, I unlocked the remaining three on my side, then I unlocked Anya, and finally I unlocked Zoren.
"We have no way to repay your life-saving grace. Please allow us to follow you. We are willing to sacrifice our lives for you!" Zhuolun said with tears of gratitude.
"My husband is a mecha engineer and a C-level mentalist. He's very useful to you."
"And me, I'm a Wood-type C-rank, I can communicate with mutated plants, please take us with you!" Anya pleaded as well.
"By the way, before we came, we also collected a map showing the distribution of all the rare minerals, medicinal herbs, and habitable cities on Silverwing Star."
I'm willing to give all of this to you, and even if you ultimately decide not to take us, you'll still be just as grateful.
Zhuolun pulled open his clothes, revealing his bare chest, and then tore off a piece of transparent artificial skin from his chest. Underneath the skin, close to his skin, was an extremely thin map.
Zhuolun wanted to tear it off, but Maoli said, "I'll just take one picture; you can keep this one."
"Take a picture? Before we were sent to the mining area, weren't all of our personal computers and spatial buttons confiscated?" Anya exclaimed again.
"Everyone has their own special skills, don't ask questions you shouldn't ask," Zhuo Lun said, tugging at his wife's hand.
Mao Li used his pupils to scan and copy the image on Zhuolun's chest, then smiled and nodded in thanks: "Okay, thank you!"
Zhuolun was shocked. He hadn't seen how Maoli took the picture of him. Soon, a thought flashed through his mind: Could he be a mechanical race that was wiped out two hundred years ago?
