It's daylight, but it's like it's not daylight.
The storm continued to fall, and the valleys in the mountains turned into rivers, and the river water rolled down and converged towards the low-lying areas. The thunder and lightning in the sky were extremely low, falling one after another, igniting a big tree from time to time, and then being extinguished by heavy rain.
Chu Jungui put on his helmet and walked out of the barracks.
Li Ruobai followed up at some point, patted Chu Jungui on the shoulder and said, "Let's go get some ore and come back."
Chu Jungui followed him nearly a kilometer away and came to a hillside. There are obvious traces of excavation on the hillside, but the mountains and rivers are constantly flowing, filling some of the mines. Li Ruobai walked around the hillside several times, scanning continuously, and finally selected a location and said, "Right here, dig some rare metals."
Chu Jungui picked up the automatic mining machine and dug in at the location designated by Li Ruobai. This automatic mining machine looks like an electric drill, but there is a pipe at the back, which feeds the mined raw ore and gravel into the selection machine at the back. In the concentrator, those with high mineral content will be retained, while those with low or no mineral content will be blown out.
While mining in silence, Li Ruobai quietly entered Chu Jungui's private channel and said, "Jun Gui?"
"Um?"
"I heard that a long time ago, people on the home planet didn't have battle armor, let alone auxiliary power. In such weather, no matter big shots or ordinary people, they would be soaked in the water if they went out, haha!"
Chu Jungui thought about it carefully. If there was no battle armor, it seemed that the battle uniform alone could completely prevent rain. But without auxiliary power, it is still very difficult for ordinary people to move in such a violent storm.
Li Ruobai guessed what he was thinking and said, "Without battle armor, how can we get lined combat uniforms? People in the old days only had raincoats and umbrellas."
Chu Jungui didn't understand why he said this, but past experience told Chu Jungui that as long as he didn't ask, Li Ruobai would tell him after a while.
As expected, Li Ruobai sighed and said: "In the old days, both big shots and ordinary people would get wet in the rain and get cold. Why now that we have conquered many star fields, the status gap between people has become even wider. Already?"
Politics was not Chu Jungui's area of expertise, so he could only listen quietly.
Li Ruobai walked back and forth a little irritably, as if he had something difficult to decide. Chu Jungui watched him walk back and forth dozens of times before saying, "Hey!"
"What's wrong?"
"The ore is full."
Li Ruobai then remembered that the two of them came out to mine. However, Chu Jungui's voice seemed to make him make up his mind. He gritted his teeth and said, "Fuck your status!"
When Li Ruobai left, Chu Jungui silently opened the selection machine, which contained four square bags of selected ore. He grabbed four mining bags and carried them behind his back.
"Give me two bags."
"You move the machine. Your legs are not healed yet."
Li Ruobai resisted the portable mineral concentrator and two mining guns, then remembered something and shouted: "Isn't your leg injured too?"
Chu Jungui ignored him and had already gone far away in the storm. Li Ruobai hurriedly followed.
As soon as he entered the camp, Chu Jungui received a new task on his personal terminal: camp relocation.
After careful consideration, Meng Jianghu decided to move the camp, take away all the necessary supplies and equipment, and head to the Blue Flag Army's city. A city with an industrial base is naturally very convenient. The key is that there are tens of thousands of people in the city, and they can be put into use with a little training. Rebuilding an interstellar spacecraft is no small project.
Everyone started to get busy, but Chu Jungui had nothing to do. His mission is both simple and complex, perimeter security. This task requires him to ensure the safety of the two hundred meters area around the camp. In this kind of weather, the immortal cannot hit the target beyond two hundred meters.
Chu Jungui picked up the gun and walked into the storm.
In the camp, Lin Xi watched Chu Jungui's figure disappear, and the mask switched to mirror mode again.
Chu Jungui searched alone in the mountains and fields. The sky was always as dark as night, as if the sun had never shined. The wind is getting stronger and stronger, and the howling wind has reached Level 10, and all the trees are swaying crazily. Except for some protruding rocks, the ground is filled with rushing water. The water was so strong that it was close to a flash flood.
It seemed like he was the only one left in this world.
No, he's not a human, just a monster, a human-like monster.
Chu Jungui felt as if there was an emotion brewing in his heart that had never appeared before. But this emotion is not unfamiliar. Teenagers often have this emotion. Whenever this happens, the boy will close himself up and cut off all contact with the outside world.
Just like when the test subject is sleeping.
He tried searching through his memory, but couldn't find the reason for this emotion. The memories before this emotion appeared were all blank, with nothing in them. This is not like manual erasure, but the boy himself forced to forget.
Not finding the answer made Chu Jungui a little frustrated.
At this moment, something suddenly moved in his field of vision. The system automatically determined the identity of the moving object: the subordinate soldier of the chain saw.
Chu Jungui instinctively sneaked over and silently followed the soldier. The soldier searched for dozens of meters toward the camp, then turned to the right, searched for another few hundred meters, and then returned to where he came from.
Chu Jungui remained patient and followed silently. Their camp was soon discovered. The camp was well camouflaged. Four or five tents were built in the forest, with wild grass, moss and branches arranged on the surface. They almost blended in with the surrounding environment. Even Chu Jungui might have ignored this place at first glance.
Each tent in the camp was crowded with three or four soldiers, totaling about 20 people in total. Such a small number of troops is not enough for attack, but more for reconnaissance and containment.
Just when the patrolling soldier was about to return to the camp, Chu Jungui threw out his short knife and sank it into his back.
The soldier fell to the ground, struggled a few times and then lost his voice. However, even in the storm, this slight movement still alarmed the soldiers in the camp.
"Who is it?" "Enemy attack!"
Amidst the shouts, they rushed out of the tent one after another, but when they saw three red lights.
Three rifle grenades came, landed exactly on three points, and exploded almost simultaneously. The shock waves of the explosion stirred up each other, increasing their power exponentially. The warriors barely realized what was happening before they all turned into corpses.
"Face-to-face killing is really useful." Chu Jungui thought, using this to exclude all undue emotions.
He searched for the corpses of the soldiers, collected useful loot, and finally set several traps around the camp with their own grenades before quietly leaving.
Not far away, there was an explosion after Chu Jun returned, and then a series of explosions.
Chu Jungui did not look back and walked directly to the camp. As long as it exceeds a hundred meters, the storm will cover up all sounds, and the explosions and screams will no longer be heard.
He returned to the camp, silently put down the collected trophies, then turned around and left.
"Wait a minute." Li Ruobai stopped him on the communication channel, then rushed over and said, "I'll go with you."
"Don't you have your own mission?"
"Are you talking about planning a course of action and determining a relocation plan? It's already been done."
"You are so smart...ah, no, I mean, don't we need to discuss the plan with the colonel?"
Chu Jungui accidentally spilled the beans. Fortunately, Li Ruobai either didn't hear it or didn't care at all, so he didn't mention it again and followed Chu Jungui out of the camp.
This time Chu Jungui searched in a different direction, and Li Ruobai followed him obediently, not trying to show off his fighting ability.
"Jun Gui, let's talk."
"I knew you didn't come out to fight."
"Why do I just don't want to fight! Please explain it to me clearly."
"Are you going out on patrol with a broken leg?"
"How are your legs better than mine?"
"Legs and legs are different." It was rare for the test subject to say something philosophical, and Li Ruobai was stunned in one fell swoop.
Li Ruobai also has his own pride. In the face of the facts, he doesn't bother to lie. But if you don't lie, you have to admit the truth, and both sides suffer equally.
He decided to change the subject.
"Jun Gui, with your fighting style, have you thought about your future?"
"Which aspect? Salary?" Li Ruobai choked to death again.
"You are the man who defeated me, Li Ruobai. Can you stop thinking about money every day?"
"How do you know I'm thinking about money?" Chu Jungui was confused.
"You..." Li Ruobai wisely gave up the idea of quarreling and quarreled with Chu Jungui, hoping that he would be angry to death.
"Let's get down to business."
"Isn't it business just now?"
"No...shut up!" Li Ruobai couldn't bear it anymore.
"good."
After taking several deep breaths, Li Ruobai calmed down and said, "I want to ask you a question. You must tell me the truth. Did you save me because of my identity?"
Chu Jungui was silent.
Li Ruobai waited for a moment, sighed, and said lonely: "It's nothing, others can probably see it, and it's not surprising for you to see it. Anyway, you still saved me after all, and I am still very grateful to you. Although I hope you don’t know anything and are willing to save me.”
Chu Jungui felt that the topic was a little off track, and then looked at the item in the mission code "Provide detailed and true intelligence to the mission target as much as possible without affecting the completion of the mission", and decided to tell him the truth, even though the logic component indicated that , which may cause mental trauma to Li Ruobai.
"I saved you because you were on my to-do list, even if it was a little low."
"Task list? How low down is it?"
"lowest."
"Lin Xi and I are the only ones on your task list, right? Ha! I can accept being lower than her!" Li Ruobai became happy again.
But the next moment he received a heavy blow, "There are still 44 tasks between you."
Chu Jungui said nothing. He still had a large amount of data that needed to be recompiled to generate components that could be loaded directly. The importance of each component seems to be higher than that of Li Ruobai. But now that it accidentally landed on an uninhabited planet, there is no available computing power, so the compilation task is at a standstill.
Just when Li Ruobai was frustrated, Chu Jungui asked again: "What status can a spaceship pilot have? Is the salary high?"
The test subject really didn't know, but Li Ruobai suddenly became in a good mood and said with a smile: "Of course the salary is not high, but it's enough to treat you to a meal!"
"Really?" Chu Jungui thought about his daily energy consumption.
