Chapter 221 Defection(1/2)

Lysiya may be an ambitious woman.

In the face of 300% profit, I don't mind trampling on all the laws of Dragon City.

But she is not a bloodthirsty lunatic.

She didn't want to get into trouble with Shen Yulong unless she had to.

Especially when there is no certainty of victory.

It's a pity that both sides have the same goal.

They all have experienced senior prospectors, and their exploration equipment and technology are almost the same.

If you follow the same spiritual line, you will naturally encounter people unexpectedly in the dark maze.

Everyone was already distracted by the magnetic interference, exhausted by the overloaded exploration operations, and they had to be constantly on guard against surprise attacks from their opponents.

In particular, Shen Yulong's team also has a four-star extraordinary sharpshooter.

Considering that the complex environment of the dark underground is not suitable for unleashing the maximum power of firearms, there are no professional gunmen in Lu Siya's prospecting team.

Until this moment, she often felt that someone was spying on her secretly, which was like a thorn in her back and consumed her energy greatly, so she secretly miscalculated.

"Shen Yulong, this bastard, knows that the underground creatures have never seen humans and are not afraid of firearms. There is no reason to bring a gunman."

Lu Siya yelled, "This guy has already planned to merge with his competitors. He hired a sky-level sharpshooter to intimidate other humans!"

It's too late to wake up now.

Since there is no expert in the team who is good at long-distance attack and defense, they can only spread out the sentries as much as possible to expand the warning range.

This approach can certainly ensure temporary safety, but it consumes a lot of money for the sentry.

Soon, the members of the Blade Team couldn't hold on any longer and began to complain incessantly.

Lin Chuan remained silent and took over most of the reconnaissance and security tasks.

He was like a tireless, steadily operating machine, running around, climbing up and down, exploring unknown and dangerous areas, finding rock crevices filled with snakes, insects, rats, and ants, and helping everyone avoid similar stone statues.

Mushrooms, extremely dangerous spiritual plants and fungi.

Meng Chao found that his life magnetic field began to become disordered again.

It should also be on the verge of collapse.

On the pale face, the eyes are getting brighter and brighter, burning with the flame of excessive excitement.

Meng Chao deliberately advised Lin Chuan to take a rest.

However, the Huanyu Group prospecting team and the members of the Crazy Blade team including Qin Hu who appeared from time to time did not allow them any room to breathe.

In this battle of wills, the nerves of both sides are getting tighter and tighter, making a "squeaking" sound, and I don't know which side will break first.

Fortunately, twelve hours after encountering Shen Yulong, Lu Siya's prospecting team finally discovered the first red jade vein.

"This is……"

Following a newly torn underground gap, they continued to descend twenty or thirty meters, and everyone found a horizontally torn gap in the rock wall.

Leaning over and crawling in, it suddenly dawned on me that there was a universe inside, and it was a colorful and crystal-clear underground palace.

And in the northwest corner of the "palace", there is a protrusion with teeth and claws like an angry dragon, rippling with sparkling light. It is the red jade vein that everyone dreams of!

Everyone cried with joy and cheered.

I just feel that all the sacrifices and torture are worth it.

And they were full of admiration for Lysiya who led them to discover the red jade veins, completely forgetting their initial complaints about her arbitrary actions.

Zhang Weiyan led several prospectors forward, and now several runes for stabilizing psychic energy were engraved on the surface of the red rock.

Then, we carefully took samples.

The newly mined ruby ​​jade ore exudes a dim light like red amber. It is not as shining as the refined ruby ​​jade, but it is still full of soul-stirring power.

only……

"8.2%, 7.5%, 9.1%, the red jade content in these raw ores is not high!" Zhang Weiyan frowned.

After sampling at seven or eight consecutive locations, the red jade content collected did not exceed 10%. This data poured cold water on everyone who was ecstatic.

Lin Chuan told Meng Chao that when astronomical mining rights were involved, the identification of the so-called "discovered vein" was very strict. Three pieces of raw ore with a content of more than 10% must be mined continuously in the same vein at a certain distance to be considered a discovery.

A vein of a certain crystal.

Otherwise, just picking up an ordinary rock containing a trace amount of spar would be regarded as discovering all the mineral veins within a hundred miles, which is unreasonable.

Now, they can only grasp the "tail" of the red jade vein, but they have not yet fully grasped the priority mining rights.

"It doesn't matter, we are very close to victory. This must be a sporadic branch on the periphery of the red jade vein. Follow the branch and you will find the main vein!"

Compared with before going deep into the underground cave, Lu Siya has also lost a lot of weight visibly, but her spirit is more excited than Lin Chuan, and she still encourages her hoarsely, "Everyone, please work harder, we can't fall short!"

Everyone is determined to work together.

My body really doesn't allow it.

They were relying on willpower to support themselves, and they were all holding back their energy. Just now they thought they had obtained the priority mining rights, and many people sat down on the ground. They were so relaxed that they couldn't get up.

"Siya, take a rest."

Seeing this, Lin Chuan couldn't help but said, "From the time we set out to now, it has been nearly three days and three nights, and many people have not even slept for a minute. Even if copper is poured into iron, it will turn into scrap metal.

"To put it harshly, in this current state, even if the main vein of the red jade is discovered, but they are attacked by Shen Yulong and others, who would still have the strength to resist?"

Lu Siya was slightly startled, showing a thoughtful look.

"That makes sense. Let's rest for three hours. Let's eat something quickly, meditate deeply, and then check the weapons and equipment."

Lysiya looked at the surrounding terrain, rolled her eyes, and said, "However, the camp is divided into two places. The prospectors rest here, and the hunters go to the surrounding corners.

"Linchuan, Scimitar, you two set up a defensive position in a secret place to ensure that when we are attacked by Shen Yulong, we can mount a beautiful counterattack!"

Lin Chuan nodded: "Understood."

Soon, the camp was divided into two.

Seemingly defenseless, the prospectors were all lying on their backs, soundly sleeping, snoring loudly.

The hunters of the Blade Team were dormant in the dark, keeping a three-point vigilance, waiting for Shen Yulong's prospecting team to fall into their trap.

But more than two hours passed, and Shen Yulong never showed up.

I don't know if he didn't find this gap leading to the red jade branch vein, or he found another gap that can lead directly to the red jade main vein.

Meng Chao participated in such a difficult mission for the first time since his rebirth. As a great health expert, Rao spent thousands of contribution points and redeemed two "primary healing techniques", which could only heal the damage to the skin and flesh, but could not repair the damage.

Nerves stretched to the point of rupture.

He sat cross-legged in the tent, entered a deep state of meditation, and had several nightmares in a trance.

In a nightmare, he dreamed that he and Lin Chuan had turned into two lizards in a dark hell.

However, Lysiya turned into a beautiful snake and drove them to fight fiercely with another group of venomous snakes and lizards.

Lin Chuan kept shouting to the lizard opposite: "We are the same kind!"

The lizard on the opposite side ignored him, and under the command of the venomous snake with Shen Yulong's head, it bit him into pieces, which was horrific.

However, after Lin Chuan died tragically, scarlet tentacles emerged from his body, pieced together the body like sutures, and turned into a deformed and ugly monster.

Lin Chuan came back from the dead, showing a ferocious smile under the illumination of the soul of the phoenix beast.

It turned out that he had long been parasitized by the blood-striped flower and turned into an undead creature.

Meng Chao woke up suddenly.

I heard Lin Chuan shouting from outside the tent.

Without bothering to wipe the cold sweat from his head, he grabbed the chain blade and rushed out of the tent. He found that everyone jumped up as if they were facing an enemy.

"what happened!"

"Enemy surprise attack?"

"Linchuan, what did you find?"

Lin Chuan's face was ugly, and he slowly walked back from a distance, with a few fresh scratches remaining on his body.

While squirming his flesh and blood and squeezing out fine stone chips from the wound, he said: "Someone ran away. I went to chase him, but I was attacked outside the crack in the ground. It was dark all around, and the spiritual magnetic interference was too strong. I couldn't see clearly.

Who should be from the Crazy Blade Team.

"I'm afraid that I will be besieged by several powerful people in the heavenly realm, so I don't dare to pursue them anymore, so I can only retreat."

"Someone... ran away?"

Lu Siya pondered for a moment, her eyes sharpened suddenly, staring at Zhang Weiyan and Scimitar, and said urgently, "Quickly count your respective team members!"

Scimitar quickly counted clearly, there were many sharp blades.

On Zhang Weiyan's side, there was one missing prospector from the Qingtian Group.

There was also a sample of the red jadeite ore they had just mined, as well as a tablet computer recording the exploration route and exploration data, which were also missing.
To be continued...
