I was reborn after playing a good hand badly

When Su Mo left the cave, Tao Jibang had already eaten his fill. His legs were full of dents and he was fed with medicine again.

However, the medicine Su Mo used on him had very limited effect. It could break up the burnt scabs on the wound and let tender flesh grow, but it couldn't fill the potholes.

After entertaining Tao Jibang, Su Mo left the space just in time when the flying boat was landing.

This landing point is the closest open space to the base, making it convenient for the association's people to unload goods.

When Su Mo came down from the deck, the first group of people from the association who were going to land had already changed into their equipment and put on protective clothing. Leading among them was the team leader Luo Zhenming.

Vice President Luo had just been transferred from the Academy of Aerospace to the Psychic Association to serve as vice president of the research institute. He took the initiative to apply for a transfer just for the opportunity of the second batch to come to the moon.

Su Mo went directly down to the lower cabin and saw half of the staff led by Vice President Luo who had finished their preparations.

By the way, Su Mo and he had just met once at the association's headquarters a few days ago, but that was a high-level meeting of the association, and they had never spoken to each other, so they were not familiar with each other.

Seeing that they were ready and knowing that they were anxious, Su Mo greeted Vice President Luo without much greeting and walked over to open the cabin door.

The moment the door opened, everyone except Su Mo subconsciously turned their heads. Although the sunlight could not shine in through the protective cover, the strong contrast still made it impossible to see outside clearly.

After a while, everyone adjusted themselves and saw a group of people approaching the flying boat not far away.

It was Jiang Li who brought people here.

When Jiang Li received the notification that the flying boat was about to land, he had already led the team out to prepare. Under the scorching sun, they and all the tractors in the base had been waiting for a while.

After the flying boat landed, Jiang Li and his group approached.

Afterwards, Jiang Li and Luo Zhenming coordinated their work, which was an internal matter of the association. Su Mo walked away and did not listen.

She didn't take away the mining equipment she had used before. They were all left here to continue working. Now was a good time to go and take a look.

The area occupied by Su Mo was located on the other side of the stronghold. When she went there, she saw the well-running transport vehicle and a pile of ore accumulated behind it.

The transport trucks were still working at a humming pace. It was obviously impossible to fully mine the vein in the half month she was away. Su Mo was not in a hurry. She walked over and collected the piled ore.

Turning around and looking in the direction of the canyon mineral vein, Su Mo wanted to go over and see to what extent the excavation there had been. She could go if she wanted to, since it would take the association a long time to unload the goods anyway. But at this time, she felt Jiang Li coming, so she had to stop and wait.

Soon, Jiang Li's voice came from the headset.

"Su Mo, I caught you off guard this time, didn't I? We didn't expect that kind of accident to happen."

Su Mo waved his hands to indicate that it was nothing.

"Why are you here? Why didn't you bring the new colleague back to the base?" she asked with a raised eyebrow.

There are still two people in the stronghold who are suspected to be critically ill and are waiting for rescue.

"I've arranged for someone to take them over. I'm a security guard so I won't join in the fun. I came here to talk to you."

"As long as it doesn't delay your work, it's fine. By the way, do you know more about the attacker? Have you taken pictures of him since then?" Su Mo took the opportunity to inquire for information.

After all, no matter how small the moon is, it is still a sphere, and Su Mo wants to have a direction to find someone.

Jiang Li sighed.

"Except for the two team members who haven't woken up yet and may have seen each other, we haven't even seen what the other party looks like, and the surveillance cameras we set up didn't capture anything useful. In fact, I'm not sure if the other party is a human. It was only because the headquarters said that someone might come out of the secret realm that we made this guess."

"It should be a human. The wounds on the injured person were caused by a sword." The medical team at the headquarters has repeatedly confirmed this.

"Oh, yes. I heard that there are people who came out of the secret realm in your school and they are foreign teachers, right?" Jiang Li said with a wink.

Unfortunately, Jiang Li was not like Su Mo who could make facial expressions without any covering, so Su Mo could not see it. Jiang Li's entire head and face was covered by the helmet, so Su Mo could not see any expression on his face.

"Well, I met them all by coincidence in the secret realm."

"Aren't you afraid that they will cause trouble if you bring them back?" Jiang Li was not questioning, she was just curious about how Su Mo handled it.

"They won't cause any trouble. Besides, they are all monks with special skills. Don't feel bad if you run into them."

"Well, you are right. It is necessary to take some risks if you want to employ people."

Su Mo: "..."

"The headquarters sent a lot of supplies this time. You should go back and keep an eye on them while they work. I'm going to go check out the mine."

"Okay, you go there and be careful. If you encounter the attacker, call for backup in time! We haven't found any traces of the attacker, and I have a feeling that the attacker is still hiding near the base. It's always better to be careful."

Su Mo nodded in acceptance of Jiang Li's concern and reminder. She made a reassuring gesture, stepped on the ground, and her body floated up, flying towards the canyon.

Su Mo traveled as fast as she could and was faster than the transport truck. She soon reached the edge of the canyon. Near the vertical guide pillars, mining trucks and transport trucks were also busy.

She walked to the edge and observed that the ore on the surface of the canyon had almost been mined and transported away. At this moment, excavators and mining vehicles were digging deep underground. Most of the accumulated ore in this vein was concentrated in the downward direction, and only a small amount was in the mountains on both sides.

A winding road that was only wide enough for one car to pass through was carved out on the mountain wall of the canyon near the stronghold, which did not exist before.

"Maybe Jiang Li had people do it. They dug too deep and it was too difficult and inconvenient for the collection vehicle to come up." Su Mo murmured, mainly because no one had told her about this.

Instead of taking that road, Su Mo took a step forward and jumped down. Since she was already here, she might as well collect the ore that had been excavated, thus saving the mechanical vehicles from making several more trips.

Just as Su Mo was wandering around the bottom of the canyon and collecting things happily, she suddenly felt a chill on her back.

Someone attacked? !

Su Mo reacted extremely quickly. As soon as he sensed something was wrong, he tiptoed forward a distance. When he turned around, he had already taken out the Xuan-level long sword and faced the sneak attack head-on.

She swung her sword horizontally.

"Dang!" The two swords collided instantly, sparking a burst of sparks before quickly separating.

This time, neither side gained any advantage, but the opponent did not stop and continued to attack with one sword move after another.

Faced with such an attack, Su Mo, who had no knowledge of swordsmanship and only average knife skills, could only frantically wave his sword to block. Fortunately, Su Mo had enough spiritual energy in his body to withstand it.

In a blink of an eye, the two sides had already fought for dozens of rounds. The opponent failed to suppress Su Mo, and Su Mo failed to fight back.
