"The bottom of the mine collapsed, and energy fluctuations emanated from the depths of the huge pit that collapsed. It was a huge rough iridium stone."
Lu Jin took a deep breath, and when Merun and the star thieves looked happy, he said, "But there are many giant worms living around the rough stone, and all the other miners except her were eaten by the worms."
The surroundings suddenly quieted down.
"Giant worm? How big can it be?" someone asked.
Lu Jinchao briefly described the situation. No matter how excited he was, Myron realized the seriousness of the matter and frowned tightly.
Myron knew what the huge rough stone meant. Once he obtained such a powerful power source, the power of the fleet would be greatly enhanced, and he would be able to go farther and occupy more areas.
must have.
Myron: "Think of a way, I want that rough stone."
Eve heard this, looked at him, and made a few gestures.
"What do you want to say?" Facing the only surviving miner, Myron could hardly stop thinking of her as a mining tool.
Lin Xiaoming: "She said that if necessary, she can take people down."
Myron raised his eyebrows: "You can also sign language?"
"I learned a little bit in the school club." Lin Xiaoming's reason was convincing.
He used to be an agent, how could he not know sign language.
"I'll follow her down to take a look." Lu Jinchao suggested, "Only at the collapsed cliff, don't go deep, use your mental power to perceive what's going on."
This is the best way for now. The miners who went to explore the road before are all ordinary people, and the clues they can get are limited. Myron ordered a few more star robbers and said: "Go down together."
Lu Jin noticed Eve's blood-stained gloves and said, "Wait a while, let her rest."
It happened that the star thieves also needed to tidy up the equipment for the mine, and there was a simple medical office next to it, Lu Jinchao helped Eve bandage the palm of her hand a little, and while no one was paying attention, he asked softly: "Do you need me to sort it out for you? "
Eve hesitated for a moment, then finally shook her head.
She is still very vigilant, forming a temporary alliance does not mean too much trust.
Lu Jinchao stopped talking, Lin Xiaoming came over, sat beside him, and said in a low voice: "Be careful after you go down for a while, don't leave my side, there may be other undiscovered dangers in the mine."
Lu Jin nodded. The scene in Eve's memory made him involuntarily terrified. The scene that usually only appeared in horror and fantasy movies actually existed.
He put his hand on Lin Xiaoming's leg, even through the cloth, the physical contact still reassured him to a certain extent.
Lin Xiaoming patted the back of his hand.
An hour later, Lu Jinchao, who was fully armed, followed Lin Xiaoming and entered the mine.
There are six star thieves in the nine-member team, and Eve, as the only experienced miner in the team, leads the way.She was unable to speak, and the task of communication fell on Lu Jinchao, who was the guide, and Lin Xiaoming, who could speak sign language.
They walked a long way to the place where the elevators were installed. The terrain in the mine is complex, and the elevators are set up in stages. Every time they go down to a floor, they need to walk for a while to get to another elevator. continue down.
Meren was unwilling to let the few guides among the Star Thief take risks, so he only sent one guide, Lu Jinchao, and the rest were sentinels. Of course, in the eyes of the Star Thief, the miners Eve and Lu Jinchao must take Lin Xiaoming is an ordinary person.
An hour and a half later, they came to the collapsed platform, and the depth gauge on their wrists showed that it was already 3000 meters underground.
It stands to reason that the closer to the center of the earth, the higher the temperature will be. A normal terrestrial planet can reach a temperature of more than 4000 degrees at a depth of 60 meters, but this is completely unreasonable. The temperature is much lower than that on the surface. Lu Jin is breathing At that time, I could already see the white mist rising in front of my eyes.
"Sound of water, did you hear it?" said one of the star robbers.
"Underground river?"
"It's not the sound of water." Lu Jin said, "It's the sound of the bugs wriggling, bodies squeezing each other, and body fluids flowing."
Several people showed disgusted expressions, Lu Jinchao grabbed Lin Xiaoming's hand, and looked down cautiously.
The gray mist gathered below, covering everything, and it was bottomless.
"Want to go down?"
"Let me sense the situation first." Lu Jin stepped back to a place that was absolutely safe away from the cliff, sat cross-legged and closed his eyes.
The rest of the people sat down beside him and took a rest.
Lin Xiaoming naturally sat next to Lu Jinchao, and Eve sat silently at the outermost part of the crowd, out of place.
The spirit body sent out and probed towards the bottom of the abyss. Lu Jinchao obviously felt the resistance. The gray fog seemed to be able to block the spirit power, or the energy of the original stone below was too strong, which also caused some interference to him.
Compared with the bottom, what made him aware of it immediately was the mental fluctuations from the surroundings.
...something is approaching.
Lu Jin raised his eyebrows, but did not open his eyes.
They were on the platform, next to the upward elevator, and far away from the edge of the cliff. The star thieves naturally felt that there would be no danger and talked with each other.
Suddenly, a person suddenly straightened up, and touched his lower back suspiciously.
"what happened?"
"It seems to be bitten by something." The man lowered his head to look at the painful place, but found nothing, "Maybe it's a bug."
The star thieves didn't take it seriously, the environment on planet M342 was quite primitive, and it was common to be bitten by mosquitoes.
One of them got a little annoyed with waiting, and said to Lu Jin who had been silent all this time: "Hey, are you alright? What's going on next?"
Lu Jinchao: "The gray fog will block the mental power, give me a little more time."
After all, he was the only guide, and the Star Thieves were quite polite to him. About seven or eight minutes later, the Star Thief who said he was bitten by bugs suddenly patted his companion's arm, pointed at his lower back and said, "Help me see Take a look here."
The companion looked at his face and was stunned: "Why are you swollen?!"
The star thief's entire face was swollen, his lips were purple, and his pupils were even a little dizzy. The other star robbers rushed up behind him and pulled the hem of his protective suit out of his belt.
On his lower back, there were a pair of red and swollen holes that had turned purple to black.
"My God! You were bitten by something!"
"Let me see." Lu Jinchao immediately opened his eyes and leaned over. He squeezed the wound hard, and black blood flowed out: "He was bitten by a snake!"
"Snake? There are snakes here?!"
Lu Jinchao untied the Star Bandit belt, moved it up a few inches to the lower edge of the ribs, and tied it firmly. The bitten part was on his torso. This is the only way to prevent the toxin from expanding towards the heart.
Do you have a dagger? "
The star thieves hurriedly handed over the daggers, and Lu Jinchao quickly crossed the wound, squeezing out the black blood and remaining venom as much as possible.
Even after being given first aid, Star Thief's body still began to shake unsteadily, and dripping saliva flowed from the corners of his lips. It was a highly poisonous snake with mixed poison. Neurotoxins and blood toxins were injected into the body together, and flowed along the blood. whole body.
Due to the interference of unknown energy in the depths of the [-]-meter mine, the communication equipment could not be used. Lu Jin squeezed out a large pool of blood, but did not see the normal color of bright red, and immediately said: "Send him up now. The infirmary should There are detoxification tablets, hurry up, if you hurry up, you will be saved!"
In the face of the lives of their companions, they didn't care about the task, and two of them hurried up the elevator with the poisoned person.
After watching the elevator leave, there were only three star thieves left on the platform. Because of the appearance of the poisonous snake, they were vigilant.
Lu Jinchao was about to continue to perceive. As soon as he sat down, he suddenly noticed something, and suddenly shouted: "Be careful——!"
The star thieves immediately raised their guns and looked around vigilantly, forming a triangle formation to protect the guides, ordinary people and miners of the same team in the middle.
The next moment, a strong wind came from behind, and one of the star robbers was caught off guard by Lin Xiaoming's arms. He immediately reacted and hit the person behind him with the butt of his gun, but Lin Xiaoming dodged sideways and fell backwards to the ground!
The other person turned around when he heard the sound, and the iron pick came from behind and hit him hard on the back of the head. He didn't even remember to cry out, so he fell to the ground, and the blood quickly flowed from the wound and spread into a pool.
The last person was about to turn around when his head suddenly felt a pain. In this brief moment, Eve, who had already dealt with a star thief, bumped into him.
Xing stole the rifle to block the pickaxe, kicked Eve amidst the ear-piercing sound of collision, and took advantage of his height and size to press her hard against the rock wall. Eve was torn to pieces!
Lin Xiaoming's lower body was as stable as iron, and he was not disturbed by the struggle at all. He locked Xing Dao's neck with one hand, and quickly pulled out the pistol at Xing Dao's waist with the other hand, without even looking in Eve's direction, he went straight Raise your hand and pull the trigger.
boom--!
Following the gunshot, the star thief's body shook suddenly, a black hole appeared on the left side of his back, and blood was gushing out crazily.
The mental body that was about to bite Eve let out a wail, and disappeared into the air in an instant with the death of its master.
The star thief fell to the ground with a bang, Eve wiped the blood on his face panting, and Lin Xiaoming locked the remaining star thief with his hands again, unmoved by the other party's suffocating shouts.
Lu Jin heard clearly the sound of the neck bone breaking.
He couldn't help closing his eyes, not to watch those bloody scenes.
Ten seconds later, everything was quiet.
There were three corpses lying on the ground, and they would never have thought that the two companions who escorted the poisoned man up had a way of life instead.
The blood on Eve's face came from the star thief. She herself was not injured. Eve took two steps away from Lu Jinchao and Lin Xiaoming, and looked at the shadow in the distance. A figure was walking out from there.
A black and white snake wrapped around his wrist. Moore glanced at the star thief on the ground with a grin on his face: "I didn't expect to meet again so soon."
Lu Jinchao: "How did you get down?"
Moore: "I was waiting here before you, didn't you find out from the beginning?"
Lu Jinchao was noncommittal, and the four members of the temporary alliance reunited. Lin Xiaoming took the weapons carried by the star robbers and said, "What do you want to do?"
Moore raised his chin towards the abyss: "I want the thing below."
Lu Jin frowned: "How do you get such a big rough stone?"
"Nonono." Moore raised his index finger and shook, "That's not the only thing down there."
Lu Jin looked at Eve, and instantly understood that the memories Eve showed him were processed by her.
Lu Jinchao: "Anything else?"
Moore: "Just go and see, are you coming?"
Lin Xiaoming vaguely realized something: "Since you invited me, let's go."
In his previous life, Moore was recognized as the garbage king. He was able to assemble a starship with a lot of garbage picked up from the M-series planets. His ability to recognize and utilize resources can be seen. He made Moore think so much and made a special trip. Things are impossible.
The target was in the abyss below the collapse pit, and there was only one way to go down. Lu Jinchao was wearing protective equipment unfamiliarly, and he was a little clueless. These miners' equipment was too unfamiliar to him.
Seeing this, Lin Xiaoming pulled Lu Jin over to his shoulders and lowered his head to help him adjust the safety buckle.
The sentinel moves quite skillfully, like a veteran who often climbs mountains and rocks.
... Lin Xiaoming was just as proficient when he killed someone.
Thinking of Lin Xiaoming killing two people without hesitation, Lu Jinchao felt a little chill in his heart.
After getting along for more than two months, Lu Jinchao fully realized that he still didn't know Lin Xiaoming at all. This young man was completely unafraid of blood and death, and showed superb and superb skills in medical treatment, fighting and camouflage.
He even began to suspect that the reason why Lin Xiaoming escaped from the sanctuary was not purely out of burning blood.
Fortunately, Lu Jinchao can feel that Lin Xiaoming treats him sincerely and has no intention of harming him. In the current situation where the future is uncertain and dangerous, the only thing they can rely on is each other.
Lu Jin put his hands on Lin Xiaoming's shoulders, fully revealing his waist, so that Lin Xiaoming could give him the final safety check.
"Okay." Lin Xiaoming finally buckled the safety rope between the two, "It will be a little safer if you are connected with me."
Lu Jin nodded. He tugged on his gloves. He wore a gun and a dagger on his waist, and a miner's lamp on his head. He was dressed like a professional.
"Take these." Moore kicked the corpse on the ground.
Eve and Lin Xiaoming can each carry one, but both Moore and Lu Jinchao are physically weak, and it is difficult to climb down by themselves, let alone carry things.
The corpse that was knocked open by Eve's manuscript was in the worst condition. Eve picked him up by the waist and threw him into the abyss.
The corpse fell down and was quickly submerged in the gray mist. After waiting for about a minute, there was a muffled sound from below, as if it had hit something soft and squeezed out a large puddle of juice.
In this way, when other people come down again, they will only think that they have a dispute and then disappear into the abyss.
Eve carried the corpse of a star thief on her back and set off first, with Moore and Lu Jin facing in the middle, and Lin Xiaoming carrying another corpse and protecting it at the end, and the four of them formed a diagonal line downward.
Among the mental bodies of the four, only Lu Jinchao's Bai Falcon could follow in the air, and the gray mist had the effect of suppressing the mental power, making Yunjin's figure not so clear.
After going down for about 1000 meters, Lu Jinchao felt a bit difficult. The injury he suffered yesterday has not healed yet, and his muscles are still sore.
Moore is not much better, I don't know if it is because of the weight loss caused by malnutrition all the year round, he is even weaker than Lu Jinchao.
Eve kept slowing down and waiting for the two guides. Lu Jinchao tried his best to control the muscles of his legs, supporting his body so that he would not lose his strength and slide down.
At a depth of 2000 meters, Eve finally stopped.
"Is this right here?" Moore was panting, his face looked like he was going to collapse from exhaustion.
Eve tapped the rock wall in front of her with the manuscript, and she could clearly hear the sound of the cavity. After that, she made a few gestures.
"About ten centimeters?" Lin Xiaoming got down to the same height as her and took out the manuscript, "Let's dig."
Lu Jinchao and Moore were finally able to rest. They hung on the rock wall to look around. The gray fog below was still thick and bottomless. No one knew how far the Zonghe River was from here. Perhaps right under their feet, as long as they taste the smell of blood, they will rush up.
Eve and Lin Xiaoming moved very quickly, and it took only 10 minutes to dig out a passable hole.
Eve went in first, followed by Moore, who seemed to bump into something by accident and cursed for a while.
Lu Jinchao cautiously approached the entrance of the cave. The temperature in the abyss was below zero. He was hanging on the rock wall for a while, the sweat from his body was almost frozen, and his legs were not as stiff as his own.
Lu Jinchao finally moved to the entrance of the cave, intending to walk in from his legs like Eve did. As soon as he stepped on the edge of the cave, the stone under his feet suddenly cracked.
Lu Jin lost control of his body in an instant and was about to slide down. Lin Xiaoming, who was guarding the side, grabbed the safety buckle on his back with quick eyes and quick hands.
"careful!"
The falling trend was terminated, and Lu Jin was still shaking while hanging in the air with his whole body facing him. He broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly grabbed the safety rope, kicked off the rock wall and entered the cave with his hands and feet.
Lin Xiaoming followed closely behind and landed in a very handsome and unrestrained posture.
"Are you okay?" Lin Xiaoming asked in a low voice.
Lu Jin shook his head, he covered his chest, his heart was still beating violently.
If Lin Xiaoming hadn't made a timely move, he would really have fallen.
A "thank you" was not enough to express the gratitude in his heart, Lu Jinchao smiled at Lin Xiaoming, took a few deep breaths, and adjusted the miner's lamp on his head.
This cave that appeared in the rock wall sloped downwards, and without the gray fog outside, the mental power could be better explored forward. After walking for about ten minutes, the airflow became obvious.
"There should be an exit ahead." Lin Xiaoming whispered, "It sounds like there are other things outside, so be careful."
"That's the bugs." Moore was still grinning, "Don't worry, there are two people who will be behind if something goes wrong."
Moore was referring to the two corpses on the backs of Eve and Lin Xiaoming.
After walking another [-] meters, a hole appeared ahead, and the sound of water flow had never been so clear.
Lu Jinchao knew that it was the sound of worms squeezing each other and body fluids coming out of the body.
The stench appeared faintly, like the smell of rotting and fermented corpses. Lu Jinchao held his breath, and Moore said to Eve, "The sense of smell has dropped to 1."
This seems to be what a guide should do. Lu Jin looked at Lin Xiaoming and asked with his eyes.
He is not very good at controlling the sentinel's senses, but if Lin Xiaoming needs it, he can try it.
"I'm fine." Lin Xiaoming said that he was fine.
Approaching the entrance of the cave, the Worm River was churning more than ten meters below, covered with white flowers, each one as thick as an arm, and the gray fog became much smaller for some reason. Lu Jinchao finally saw the "other things" that Moore said .
Around the huge bright iridium rough stone, there is also another purple crystal.
It grows directly from the bright iridium ore, a small clump, each facet is extremely regular, reflecting the lustrous light.
Just looking at it from a distance, Lu Jinchao can feel the power contained in it. Unlike the bright iridium rough stone, which is strong enough to affect electronic equipment, the crystal is more gentle and warm.
"What is this?" he asked.
Lin Xiaoming: "Freya Amethyst, named after the goddess of fertility in Norse mythology in the old land, is an extremely rare gemstone that appears only with the purest iridium ore. It has the effect of warming the spirit and is worn by sentries and guides for a long time. It will greatly improve the ability.”
Moore raised his eyebrows: "Yes, I know quite a lot."
Lin Xiaoming: "Do you want this?"
Moore snorted and laughed twice: "Don't you want it?"
"Half to half." Lin Xiaoming stared at the purple spar for two seconds, and made a request, "Although you discovered it, but without us, you two alone would not be able to get it."
"Don't be so hasty." Moore pointed to the swarm of insects surging below, and said with a smile, "Can you get it and say it again? Maybe in a few minutes you will become a puddle of water in the belly of these things gone?"
Lu Jinchao grabbed Lin Xiaoming's arm and said in a low voice, "It's too dangerous."
"Even if Freya Amethyst is an absolute treasure among the rich and powerful of Capital Star, if we can get it, it will be good for both of us." Lin Xiaoming pressed Lu Jinchao's hand, facing the guide's worries and disapproval Looking into her eyes, she said, "Trust me, I know what's in my heart."
Lu Jin frowned, and refused to let go: "You can't risk yourself, no matter how precious it is, it's not as important as life."
"I'll give you 5 minutes to discuss." Moore sat on the ground, pretending to be watching.
Lin Xiaoming looked at Freya Amethyst. The part where the crystal grows is on the edge of the huge rough stone, and there is almost no suitable place to stay. The target is about five meters away from the edge of the cave, and less than ten meters below is the churning sea of insects.
Once it falls, it will only be swallowed up.
In the spiritual scene, the gears rotate, and the mechanical city undergoes a subtle reorganization. Metal plates form the starting and ending points five meters apart, and the surging sea of gears below simulates the scene in front of you.
A dozen scenarios were built in mind, simulated, analyzed, rejected, or put into alternate options.
Half a minute later, Lin Xiaoming looked away, still firm: "I can do it."
Lu Jinchao: ……………
For a moment, he really wanted to knock Lin Xiaoming out. Feeling powerless, he took a deep breath, clenched his back molars, and after a moment of silence, he whispered, "It's up to you."
Lu Jin took a deep breath when he closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the corners of his eyes glowed slightly: "What do you need me to do?"
"It's really touching." Moore clapped his hands, looking moved, and exclaimed in an exaggerated to greasy tone, "I really don't know what expression you will have when he is bitten into pieces by bugs?"
Lu Jin took a deep breath, and when Merun and the star thieves looked happy, he said, "But there are many giant worms living around the rough stone, and all the other miners except her were eaten by the worms."
The surroundings suddenly quieted down.
"Giant worm? How big can it be?" someone asked.
Lu Jinchao briefly described the situation. No matter how excited he was, Myron realized the seriousness of the matter and frowned tightly.
Myron knew what the huge rough stone meant. Once he obtained such a powerful power source, the power of the fleet would be greatly enhanced, and he would be able to go farther and occupy more areas.

Lu Jin frowned: "How do you get such a big rough stone?"
"Nonono." Moore raised his index finger and shook, "That's not the only thing down there."
Lu Jin looked at Eve, and instantly understood that the memories Eve showed him were processed by her.

In his previous life, Moore was recognized as the garbage king. He was able to assemble a starship with a lot of garbage picked up from the M-series planets. His ability to recognize and utilize resources can be seen. He made Moore think so much and made a special trip. Things are impossible.
The target was in the abyss below the collapse pit, and there was only one way to go down. Lu Jinchao was wearing protective equipment unfamiliarly, and he was a little clueless. These miners' equipment was too unfamiliar to him.
Seeing this, Lin Xiaoming pulled Lu Jin over to his shoulders and lowered his head to help him adjust the safety buckle.
The sentinel moves quite skillfully, like a veteran who often climbs mountains and rocks.
... Lin Xiaoming was just as proficient when he killed someone.
Thinking of Lin Xiaoming killing two people without hesitation, Lu Jinchao felt a little chill in his heart.
After getting along for more than two months, Lu Jinchao fully realized that he still didn't know Lin Xiaoming at all. This young man was completely unafraid of blood and death, and showed superb and superb skills in medical treatment, fighting and camouflage.
He even began to suspect that the reason why Lin Xiaoming escaped from the sanctuary was not purely out of burning blood.
Fortunately, Lu Jinchao can feel that Lin Xiaoming treats him sincerely and has no intention of harming him. In the current situation where the future is uncertain and dangerous, the only thing they can rely on is each other.
Lu Jin put his hands on Lin Xiaoming's shoulders, fully revealing his waist, so that Lin Xiaoming could give him the final safety check.
"Okay." Lin Xiaoming finally buckled the safety rope between the two, "It will be a little safer if you are connected with me."
Lu Jin nodded. He tugged on his gloves. He wore a gun and a dagger on his waist, and a miner's lamp on his head. He was dressed like a professional.
"Take these." Moore kicked the corpse on the ground.
Eve and Lin Xiaoming can each carry one, but both Moore and Lu Jinchao are physically weak, and it is difficult to climb down by themselves, let alone carry things.
The corpse that was knocked open by Eve's manuscript was in the worst condition. Eve picked him up by the waist and threw him into the abyss.
The corpse fell down and was quickly submerged in the gray mist. After waiting for about a minute, there was a muffled sound from below, as if it had hit something soft and squeezed out a large puddle of juice.
In this way, when other people come down again, they will only think that they have a dispute and then disappear into the abyss.
Eve carried the corpse of a star thief on her back and set off first, with Moore and Lu Jin facing in the middle, and Lin Xiaoming carrying another corpse and protecting it at the end, and the four of them formed a diagonal line downward.
Among the mental bodies of the four, only Lu Jinchao's Bai Falcon could follow in the air, and the gray mist had the effect of suppressing the mental power, making Yunjin's figure not so clear.
After going down for about 1000 meters, Lu Jinchao felt a bit difficult. The injury he suffered yesterday has not healed yet, and his muscles are still sore.
Moore is not much better, I don't know if it is because of the weight loss caused by malnutrition all the year round, he is even weaker than Lu Jinchao.
Eve kept slowing down and waiting for the two guides. Lu Jinchao tried his best to control the muscles of his legs, supporting his body so that he would not lose his strength and slide down.
At a depth of 2000 meters, Eve finally stopped.
"Is this right here?" Moore was panting, his face looked like he was going to collapse from exhaustion.
Eve tapped the rock wall in front of her with the manuscript, and she could clearly hear the sound of the cavity. After that, she made a few gestures.
"About ten centimeters?" Lin Xiaoming got down to the same height as her and took out the manuscript, "Let's dig."
Lu Jinchao and Moore were finally able to rest. They hung on the rock wall to look around. The gray fog below was still thick and bottomless. No one knew how far the Zonghe River was from here. Perhaps right under their feet, as long as they taste the smell of blood, they will rush up.
Eve and Lin Xiaoming moved very quickly, and it took only 10 minutes to dig out a passable hole.
Eve went in first, followed by Moore, who seemed to bump into something by accident and cursed for a while.
Lu Jinchao cautiously approached the entrance of the cave. The temperature in the abyss was below zero. He was hanging on the rock wall for a while, the sweat from his body was almost frozen, and his legs were not as stiff as his own.
Lu Jinchao finally moved to the entrance of the cave, intending to walk in from his legs like Eve did. As soon as he stepped on the edge of the cave, the stone under his feet suddenly cracked.
Lu Jin lost control of his body in an instant and was about to slide down. Lin Xiaoming, who was guarding the side, grabbed the safety buckle on his back with quick eyes and quick hands.
"careful!"
The falling trend was terminated, and Lu Jin was still shaking while hanging in the air with his whole body facing him. He broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly grabbed the safety rope, kicked off the rock wall and entered the cave with his hands and feet.
Lin Xiaoming followed closely behind and landed in a very handsome and unrestrained posture.
"Are you okay?" Lin Xiaoming asked in a low voice.
Lu Jin shook his head, he covered his chest, his heart was still beating violently.
If Lin Xiaoming hadn't made a timely move, he would really have fallen.
A "thank you" was not enough to express the gratitude in his heart, Lu Jinchao smiled at Lin Xiaoming, took a few deep breaths, and adjusted the miner's lamp on his head.
This cave that appeared in the rock wall sloped downwards, and without the gray fog outside, the mental power could be better explored forward. After walking for about ten minutes, the airflow became obvious.
"There should be an exit ahead." Lin Xiaoming whispered, "It sounds like there are other things outside, so be careful."
"That's the bugs." Moore was still grinning, "Don't worry, there are two people who will be behind if something goes wrong."
Moore was referring to the two corpses on the backs of Eve and Lin Xiaoming.
After walking another [-] meters, a hole appeared ahead, and the sound of water flow had never been so clear.
Lu Jinchao knew that it was the sound of worms squeezing each other and body fluids coming out of the body.
The stench appeared faintly, like the smell of rotting and fermented corpses. Lu Jinchao held his breath, and Moore said to Eve, "The sense of smell has dropped to 1."
This seems to be what a guide should do. Lu Jin looked at Lin Xiaoming and asked with his eyes.
He is not very good at controlling the sentinel's senses, but if Lin Xiaoming needs it, he can try it.
"I'm fine." Lin Xiaoming said that he was fine.
Approaching the entrance of the cave, the Worm River was churning more than ten meters below, covered with white flowers, each one as thick as an arm, and the gray fog became much smaller for some reason. Lu Jinchao finally saw the "other things" that Moore said .
Around the huge bright iridium rough stone, there is also another purple crystal.
It grows directly from the bright iridium ore, a small clump, each facet is extremely regular, reflecting the lustrous light.
Just looking at it from a distance, Lu Jinchao can feel the power contained in it. Unlike the bright iridium rough stone, which is strong enough to affect electronic equipment, the crystal is more gentle and warm.
"What is this?" he asked.
Lin Xiaoming: "Freya Amethyst, named after the goddess of fertility in Norse mythology in the old land, is an extremely rare gemstone that appears only with the purest iridium ore. It has the effect of warming the spirit and is worn by sentries and guides for a long time. It will greatly improve the ability.”
Moore raised his eyebrows: "Yes, I know quite a lot."
Lin Xiaoming: "Do you want this?"
Moore snorted and laughed twice: "Don't you want it?"
"Half to half." Lin Xiaoming stared at the purple spar for two seconds, and made a request, "Although you discovered it, but without us, you two alone would not be able to get it."
"Don't be so hasty." Moore pointed to the swarm of insects surging below, and said with a smile, "Can you get it and say it again? Maybe in a few minutes you will become a puddle of water in the belly of these things gone?"
Lu Jinchao grabbed Lin Xiaoming's arm and said in a low voice, "It's too dangerous."
"Even if Freya Amethyst is an absolute treasure among the rich and powerful of Capital Star, if we can get it, it will be good for both of us." Lin Xiaoming pressed Lu Jinchao's hand, facing the guide's worries and disapproval Looking into her eyes, she said, "Trust me, I know what's in my heart."
Lu Jin frowned, and refused to let go: "You can't risk yourself, no matter how precious it is, it's not as important as life."
"I'll give you 5 minutes to discuss." Moore sat on the ground, pretending to be watching.
Lin Xiaoming looked at Freya Amethyst. The part where the crystal grows is on the edge of the huge rough stone, and there is almost no suitable place to stay. The target is about five meters away from the edge of the cave, and less than ten meters below is the churning sea of insects.
Once it falls, it will only be swallowed up.
In the spiritual scene, the gears rotate, and the mechanical city undergoes a subtle reorganization. Metal plates form the starting and ending points five meters apart, and the surging sea of gears below simulates the scene in front of you.
A dozen scenarios were built in mind, simulated, analyzed, rejected, or put into alternate options.
Half a minute later, Lin Xiaoming looked away, still firm: "I can do it."
Lu Jinchao: ……………
For a moment, he really wanted to knock Lin Xiaoming out. Feeling powerless, he took a deep breath, clenched his back molars, and after a moment of silence, he whispered, "It's up to you."
Lu Jin took a deep breath when he closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the corners of his eyes glowed slightly: "What do you need me to do?"
"It's really touching." Moore clapped his hands, looking moved, and exclaimed in an exaggerated to greasy tone, "I really don't know what expression you will have when he is bitten into pieces by bugs?"
