Chapter 76
Chapter 76
Hearing the voice from the other side, the senior brother was speechless.
He had said before that he shouldn't let Mo Shan call him directly like this, because if he was doing something very focused, it would easily disturb his train of thought. It's not like he didn't have any communication tools, so as long as he saw it, he would reply!
But it was better before, but it is still like this today.
"What's going on over there?"
The senior brother thought about it again and realized that Mo Shan was not the kind of person who had no sense of propriety and would be so presumptuous after being reminded by others.
"Hey, luckily it's not far away, we can still get in touch. Brother, if you guys have completed the detection over there, you can come to our current position and try again. Our current position is very strange. It's like the magnetic field is cut off as we go inward. No signal can be transmitted. Even the strongest signal can only travel a certain distance."
Mo Shan talked for a long time but still didn't get to the point. Captain Dai next to him patted him on the back but didn't object to what he said.
Looking back at the passage in the gap behind him, he found that it was too strange and needed to be looked at and studied by people from the research institute.
"Oh, by the way, we ran away. A fog suddenly rose here, and we couldn't even see the road clearly. I don't know what the situation is over there. Brother, do you know what the reason is?"
Mo Shan was reminded and quickly told the purpose of his initial contact.
"It's okay for now. A spiritual energy pit has appeared at one of the coordinates here. Don't worry, it will be fine after the fog dissipates. The spiritual energy content in the fog is very high now. If you are not afraid of the mutant animals or plants that may appear in the fog at any time, you can get close to it to practice and improve your abilities."
After hearing what Mo Shan said, the senior brother understood why the other party contacted him in this way again.
There was a reason for everything, so the senior brother didn't hold on to it and directly answered all the questions Mo Shan asked.
"As for what you said about studying the Sangshan Mountain where you are, the teachers and I will study it. Once the fog dissipates and the road is passable, we will go over and take a look."
The senior brother looked down at the data on the detector, and at the same time found the data from the previous detection near Sangshan. After looking at it carefully, he decided to go again regardless of whether the teacher agreed to the research or not.
"Hey! Okay!" Mo Shan nodded happily when he heard the person on the other end agree. Only after the person on the other end had nothing to say did he put down his ability and hung up the call.
"Captain, the senior brother at the research institute said that this fog is caused by the appearance of a new spiritual energy pit. If we are not afraid of being attacked by mutant plants and animals, we can get closer to absorb the spiritual energy and improve our abilities."
Mo Shan turned around and told his captain the news he had just learned, with anticipation in his eyes.
Since my senior brother said that we can take the risk and absorb it, it must be profitable.
"Well, divide it into two parts, one team for defense and one team for absorbing spiritual energy."
Captain Dai thought about it and finally decided to take the risk.
"Captain Dai, what should we do with these two frontline comrades now?"
After the deputy captain saw his captain announce the decision, he stepped forward to ask.
Since they decided to practice in the fog, it would be impossible to bring people down the mountain smoothly and send them to the hospital as previously imagined in a short period of time.
"Let's first check and stabilize their current situation. The fog is obscuring our way forward, and we won't be able to get down the mountain smoothly if we just go straight. It's safer to wait until the fog clears before we go."
Captain Dai lowered his eyes and looked at the two frontline personnel who were lying on the stretcher, still sleeping without making any sound.
When he raised his eyes again, he looked in the direction of Uncle Xiao.
"Comrade Xiao, what do you think?"
"I have no problem with that, as long as we can keep them alive and give them a chance to be saved."
When Uncle Xiao was mentioned, he didn't object.
Although the situation of the two first-line teams is not good now, they can still maintain their current state for a while.
But if I go out now without thinking to find a way down the mountain, and then go down the mountain to find the direction back to the city, I might encounter mutated animals and plants in the fog, which would bring unnecessary danger.
Originally, the two of them were safe and could be saved, but if they went out directly, they would be doomed because of the increased danger level outside.
Thinking about it, he nodded to Captain Dai again, indicating that he should follow their own pace, as long as it was safe and secure, and the two front-line colleagues could still be rescued.
After deciding on their idea, Captain Dai and the others did not hesitate and went straight ahead.
The strange phenomenon caused by the appearance of the spiritual energy pit this time is just as my senior brother said, the spiritual energy content is indeed much higher.
As soon as Captain Dai and others stepped into the fog, they clearly sensed that the spiritual energy content in the air was different from before.
"Practice quickly, I'll watch first."
Captain Dai nodded to the deputy captain and others, indicating that they should absorb the spiritual energy first.
Just as the team was concentrating on absorbing spiritual energy, they had no idea that the deep part of the passage they had just emerged from behind them had also undergone changes to varying degrees due to this spiritual energy phenomenon.
For the time being, only the mutant animals that were slightly closer and Ying Huai who sensed it through the locust leaves knew about this change.
At this time, Ali and Hu Hu were guided towards the depths of the passage because of the breath sensed by Ying Huai.
The further they walked in, the more Ali and Hu Hu understood why Ying Huai wanted them to go in this direction.
If they had been looking for stones at certain intervals before, then the closer they were to the direction indicated by Ying Huai, the smaller the distances between the stones would become.
In the end, they were everywhere. You could dig up the stones you wanted without paying much attention as long as you stretched out your claws.
As Ali and Hu Hu walked forward, they could see some mutant animals giving up moving forward halfway, lying on the ground and starting to scratch.
Ahri was looking at the many things around her and wanted to stop and stretch out her claws to grab a few pieces, but the cat head that was looking at the ground was rubbed by the tiger next to her, and Ahri turned her head back to the front.
It was obvious that Tigress wanted Ahri to focus and not be distracted.
Ali was reminded, and since the direction indicated by the locust leaf on his forehead was still ahead of this passage, he could only raise his foot and move forward again.
Fortunately, although there were many mutant animals on Sang Mountain before, there had never been any very strong mutant animals. The reason they gathered here was purely because there were treasures that could be dug out, and they did not have much interaction on weekdays.
That is why there have been no strong mutant animals to directly occupy this area and prevent other mutant animals from coming.
Ali thought about becoming the leader of these mutant animals, but when he thought about how far Sangshan was from Daxi Village, he gave up.
Its and Hu Hu's speed increased rapidly after the mutation, but even so, it took them a long time to get here. If Ali wanted to be the leader of these mutant animals, he would have to find a way to bring them back to Daxi Village, which would be very troublesome.
After thinking about it, Ali gave up.
As for why he couldn't just take over the mountain and become the king, Ali hadn't even thought about it. In Ali's instinctive consciousness, his home was in Daxi Village, and he had no intention of leaving.
To be the king of a mountain in such a remote place, it would have to run back and forth every day. Being a boss means running around every day. Is that like going to work?
Being a hard-working cat is not so bad.
The further you go in, the more stones of obviously better quality you can find. No, they should not be called stones now, they should be called spirit stones.
Because this phenomenon of surging spiritual energy came at a very coincidental time, and the location was right near the direction of Sangshan, and this mineral vein was in the growth stage and needed more spiritual energy.
With so much spiritual energy suddenly appearing at its mouth, it would be strange if it didn't absorb it.
The result of absorption is an increase in the number of spirit stones in the vein.
Ying Huai had been sensing the situation inside the mine. He stopped giving instructions only after he brought Ali and Hu Hu to the place where the spirit stones appeared densely.
Ali and Tigress are both smart cats. After the instructions stopped, they knew it was their turn to take action. The two super-large furry cats either lay on the ground or stood on two feet and began to scratch at the walls and floor of the passage.
It’s no wonder that the place Ying Huai sensed contained a lot of spirit stones, and Ali and Hu Hu dug them very smoothly.
Just as they were digging, a mutant fox came up from behind. Ali turned around and took a look. Seeing that the fox was just following him and Hu Hu from a distance, picking up the spirit stones they didn't want, he turned around and continued with his own work.
The mutant fox knew before that there were treasures in this passage and had searched for them. The stone that Uncle Xiao found in his hand was left there by the fox because it saw that Uncle Xiao looked so stupid and pitiful.
After discovering something unusual in the passage, the mutant fox immediately returned to the passage and sniffed the scent of the treasure all the way to the source.
After seeing Ali and Hu Hu, it wanted to walk past them and go ahead to find the treasure that it smelled the best.
Unexpectedly, as soon as it got close to it, it felt a strong sense of crisis emanating from Ali and Hu Hu.
This is the suppression of the lower animals by the upper class of the animal kingdom, and it is also due to the strong strength of Ahri and Tigress, which crushes its ability.
After realizing that the two mutant animals in front were different from those on Sang Mountain, the mutant fox became very obedient and did not dare to rush. Although he had not given up on finding better quality treasures, he just followed Ali and Hu Hu quietly.
Fortunately, they were heading in the same direction, and the mutant fox finally found the treasure it wanted.
Even if what it found were things that Ali and Hu Hu didn't want, it was very satisfied.
When this vein was just beginning to grow, there were very few treasures in it, and it would be very happy if it could find one.
Now the two major mutations in front can leave some for it when digging, and it is already very happy.
Digging all the way inside, Ahri finally made a claw and saw a spirit stone of better quality than the one in the backpack on her back. She hesitated for a moment and did not put it into the backpack. Instead, she lowered her head and picked it up.
Ying Huai was a little surprised when he sensed this mid-grade spirit stone. In such a short period of time, the mine over there could produce mid-grade spirit stones?
I sensed the spiritual energy content in the air and confirmed that it was rising. I thought the fog in the Sangshan area should have dissipated by then.
Ying Huai thought about it and focused his perception on the locust leaf on Uncle Xiao's body again to confirm his thoughts.
The thick fog that was so thick that one couldn't see one's hand in front of one's face had gradually dissipated during the time when Ali and the others were digging for spirit stones and Captain Dai and the others were practicing, and dissipated into the air in all directions.
The spiritual energy content in the air is increasing by leaps and bounds.
It was also at this time that Ying Huai, after making sure that Ahri was fine, closed his eyes and began to practice as the spiritual energy in the air increased.
His current location is far away from Sangshan. Fortunately, although he cannot take advantage of the increase in spiritual energy, it is still the best time to absorb the spiritual energy within a certain period of time after the spiritual energy content increases. It is just right for him to start practicing now.
"Captain, the fog has cleared."
Tang Ji looked up and took a look at his surroundings. After making sure that the fog was no longer visible, he let down his guard and turned to talk to Captain Dai.
They took turns practicing vigilance, so they were the first to discover it as soon as the fog dissipated.
"Well, the fog has dissipated, let's prepare to go back down the mountain."
Captain Dai nodded and turned around to arrange matters for going down the mountain.
Previously, they couldn't risk going down the mountain because of the fog, but now that the fog has dissipated, they need to go down the mountain as soon as possible.
"good!"
After hearing Captain Dai's words, the teammates who had just finished training stood up, responded, turned back to the cave, lifted up the two front-line personnel who had been placed on the ground, and walked out.
As they were walking out, Tang Ji would appear next to his teammates from time to time, put his hands on their shoulders, and use his ability to warm their clothes.
Although the fog they were in before had a high content of spiritual energy, the water vapor in it showed no sign of decreasing.
They had been absorbing spiritual energy in there for such a long time that their clothes were already soaked by the mist. Tang Ji happened to have full power now, so he followed behind them to help dry their clothes.
"Tang Ji, you have a really good ability. When you get old and can't work to earn the same salary as us, you can just iron clothes for others."
Zhuang Dun watched his clothes gradually dry, turned around and laughed jokingly.
"Go to hell, there's no way this could happen to me."
When Tang Ji heard Zhuang Dun's words, he just took his hand away from the other's shoulder and slapped it back hard.
"Hey hey hey! What's wrong with you? How dare you bully an honest person!"
Zhuang Dun was slapped hard on the shoulder and started to cry out.
It didn't really hurt, he just wanted to talk to someone.
With the frequent appearance of spiritual energy pits and the increase in the spiritual energy content in the air, he always felt that the world would be doomed in the future.
I don't know how to express the panic in my heart, and this is the only way to relieve it.
"You are the only honest person. Come on, let's go."
When Tang Ji heard his words, he smiled and shook his head. Seeing that the captain and others had already walked some distance ahead, he reminded them that it was time for them to follow behind.
"Um."
The special rescue team began to go down the mountain. Ali and Hu Hu in the mountain passage had already filled the backpacks on their backs. Hu Hu picked up the bag with his mouth to make sure that the opening would not fall apart because of their running. After scattering the spirit stones inside, he felt relieved.
Then he lowered his head and picked up a few spirit stones on the ground that looked of relatively good quality. Then he began to run behind Ali, preparing to return to Daxi Village.
This time they came out with two backpacks of spirit stones. The stones they dug before the spiritual energy content increased were thrown by Ali to the mutant fox following them.
Even though the mutant fox received the treasure that Ahri and the others didn't want, it was still very happy. It grinned and happily hid it in its cave. Then it came out and watched Ahri and Hu Hu run away with a look of longing on its face.
When will it be able to have such powerful strength...
