After rebirth in the end of the world, I cut off all love and hoarded goods desperately

The bones fell on the crystal and soon began to char. Li Ke ignored them and continued with her own business. When she went down a few meters and looked up again, all the bones had disappeared.

Li Ke was sweating a lot, but the situation was still bearable. He thought that those bones would be dissolved so quickly here, while his body was just sweating a little, and even the protective suit on his body was not damaged much. Li Ke no longer had any resentment towards the space in his heart.

Seeing the light of the light energy mine below becoming brighter and brighter, and his eyes becoming more and more dry and uncomfortable, Li Ke stopped making tools and sped up the action of collecting the crystal pile.

After collecting all the piled crystals, the problem came up again. He had already arrived at the mining site. Those crystals and light energy ores were connected to the ground. If Li Ke wanted to collect them, he could only bend over and work hard like a miner.

After finding a handy tool, Li Ke started to attack the nearest light energy mine, which was the size of a baby's fist and buried under the crystal.

At first, he couldn't find a way and it took some effort. After successfully collecting two light energy ores into the space, Li Ke's mining techniques also made great progress.

However, her outermost protective suit had already begun to become brittle and fall off, and the fragments could not even fall to the ground, but disappeared into the air.

Li Ke's skin was baked by the heat wave and she could not sweat at all. After collecting two large light energy mines, she began to try to enter the space or take something out, but still failed.

She wanted to lift her feet and move upwards, but the force of falling was still frightening. She had no choice but to continue to determine the target and work hard. However, she kept urging her spatial awareness in her heart to work harder, otherwise they would really be melted here.

The exploration team entered the underwater base around dusk. Nearly twenty hours had passed since they learned that there was a bomb in the mine. The captain of the fleet above the base felt more and more that the bomb might be a hoax, or it might not have been installed yet.

The leader of the exploration team was a tall white man with a very rough and fierce face. After entering the base, he took over all the work in the base and asked if there were any discoveries during this period.

Actually, there are only three things to do. First, find the missing kidnapper Li Ke and the leaders of the base. Second, find clues about why the warehouse was emptied. Third, observe the changes inside the Light Energy Mine.

The result so far is that there has been no progress. None of the missing people have been found, and no clues about the things in the warehouse seem to have disappeared out of thin air. There are no signs of transportation, and no hiding places or entrances or exits have been found elsewhere.

As for the mine, it was even stranger. It seemed as if all the people inside had disappeared. They arranged for people to take the elevator down twice, but still received no response from anyone, and no one came to contact them.

After the white leader cursed a few times in vain, he asked them to distribute the food they brought. It was canned food made by mixing mutant fish meat with other plants and animals.

It won't kill people all at once, but eating too much will definitely cause problems. Those who can handle it may experience changes in their bodies, while those who can't may end up dying of poisoning in great pain.

But these are not what they need to consider. The people here have been abandoned by their superiors, and they continue to be fed just to make them make use of their last remaining energy.

"There is enough food. Let those people eat and start mining quickly. We will take the results with us when we leave." The team leader continued to give orders to the captain in charge of this matter.

After that man left, the team leader began to lead people to conduct a search in the base. By the time he brought everyone to the mine, three hours had passed.

The search within the base yielded nothing. Now, the last hope lies in this mine.

The white leader stood at the entrance of the cave and looked down for a while. He felt a little stuffy and couldn't help wondering in his heart, what kind of madman would choose to come in here and cause trouble?

In fact, he suspected that it was someone inside the base who was responsible, but they had just checked and found that so many things were indeed missing. Even if they wanted to hide them, it would not be easy.

The team leader asked his subordinates to change into protective clothing and go down to see what was going on.

These subordinates knew that the mission was risky, but because they had learned about it in advance and were wearing protective clothing, they could not resist and could only obediently stand on the lift platform.

Of the three exploration teams, only one was composed of white people, and everyone in the other two teams knew that they were expendable.

After the lift reached 700 meters, the cable bells kept ringing. The white leader thought they had made some new discoveries and ordered the lift to be raised.

Five minutes later, five people with torn protective clothing and severe burns on their bodies appeared in front of everyone. The team leader frowned and ordered his men to carry all the people back from the lift.

The team members were in a very miserable state. The leader had no intention of saving them. He just asked them to give them some water and then asked them what they had found down there and how they became like this.

Only three of the five people could still answer, and their intermittent replies finally made the others understand the meaning.

These five people did not encounter anything, but when they reached a depth of 700 meters, their protective clothing no longer provided any protection at all. If they went any deeper, they would be burned to death by the high temperature.

The situation below was not what they knew. They could go down to a depth of several thousand meters wearing protective clothing, but they were already dying after only reaching seven hundred meters.

Hearing this answer, the team leader sent out two more people with a sullen face, asked them to wear double protection, and take the five wounded people down again. These five dying people would serve as their meat shields.

Li Ke's movements were now somewhat mechanized. Later on, she hardly needed to open her eyes when looking for light energy mines, and only used her senses to find them.

It's not that she didn't want to open her eyes, but because she really felt that she was about to go blind. In order to give herself more protection, she piled all the associated crystals that were dug out from the light energy mine around herself for protection. She only collected some of them when she was about to be buried.

Li Ke no longer had any concept of time. At the beginning, she was still counting, but after the 30th light energy ore was collected into the space, her consciousness began to become less focused. She no longer counted how much was dug later.

I just knew that I couldn't stop. In a trance, I seemed to see my fingers turning into bones, and the protective gloves on them had disappeared without a trace.

Li Ke felt that she had reached her limit. She staggered and fell onto the pile of crystals beside her. After falling down, she no longer had the strength to get up.

The flesh and blood seemed to be peeling off from his body. Li Ke felt like he was really melting, but he didn't feel too much pain. He said he was not going to do it anymore. His last thought was a decadent desire to give up everything.

There were roaring sounds coming from the bottom of the cave, and one could vaguely make out that they were begging the people above to lift them up quickly, as they were in so much pain.

The white leader stood indifferently at the entrance of the cave. His subordinates beside him kept pressing the up button of the elevator, but there was no response. It was obvious that the elevator was also out of order.

The maintenance man came within five minutes and after checking, he said that the temperature in the cave had risen too much. After a while, the lift finally responded. However, the maintenance man said that if the situation in the cave did not improve, the lift might not be usable.

When the lift slowly rose up, of the seven people who were supposed to be on the platform, only two bodies were left, and their bodies were so damaged that their identities were difficult to identify.

The white leader asked the veteran who had been in the base for a long time, what was going on? According to their previous work, this situation should not happen, right?

This person was none other than the captain who had gone out to report the news earlier. He was the only one who was brought back.

"A day ago, our people were able to go down to a thousand meters without wearing protective equipment. The current situation is somewhat similar to the situation when this mine was first mined." The captain replied with a pale face.

At that time, the entire base was nearly destroyed because of a machine being dropped and a mine explosion. However, since the mine was not big, they managed to survive in the end. It was a blessing in disguise as they went deeper underground.

However, the subsequent mining work used an extremely simple and crude method, which was to inject water, fish, and people to fill the hole. When it was filled to a certain level, the people wearing protective clothing at the back would survive and continue to work.

Later on, the miners found a way to isolate themselves, and gradually it all depended on the miners themselves.

The white team leader was also helpless when he heard the answer. He had originally wanted to come here to do something big, but ended up encountering obstacles everywhere.

He also wanted to use water, fish and human lives to fill up the mine, but they really had no people and no time now, as the representatives from China would be arriving soon.

By now, they also knew why the miners had been silent. It was probably because of the changes in the mine that they were all burned to death.

The team leader sent the news out.
