Sitting alone on a boulder in the middle of the river, Lin Yu was looking at a palm-sized white metal cube in his hand.
There is a Si logo printed on it. This is the fourth-level energy block that Lin Yu brought out from the battleship.
Even though this is just a small cube, it contains huge energy. One piece is enough for an H3-class frigate to travel normally in the universe for a month.
In the federal star field, a level 4 energy block is worth 100,000 star coins, and there is no market for it.
You must know that energy blocks exceeding level three are military controlled materials and are often used as power sources on star battleships. Private trading is prohibited.
As a second-class volunteer in the foreign operations force, his basic salary is only two thousand star coins, which is already twice as high as that of soldiers of the same level in the garrison in the federal territory.
The energy block in his hand was enough to cover his salary for more than four years. At this time, Lin Yu still had more than fifty yuan in his backpack.
Although he couldn't sell it, Lin Yu felt a little bit of the feeling of having money in his hands.
In my memory, my predecessor Lin Yu's life plan was to serve in the army for ten years. After reaching the age, he would apply for an awakening potion. If he was lucky enough to awaken and become a super warrior, he would continue to stay in the army and develop.
If the awakening fails, he can take his retirement pay and saved wages and return to his hometown to buy a farm for retirement. The remaining money will be enough for him to live a life on an ordinary planet.
Lin Yu looked at the energy block in his hand. The more he looked at it, the hotter his eyes became. He couldn't help but swallowed and put it to the tip of his nose. He smelled the alluring fragrance of the energy block and had an urge to take a bite.
"Can this thing be eaten?"
Lin Yu looked at the metallic energy block in his hand and thought in his heart.
Just when he was debating whether to take a bite of this hard vegetable, Lu Haiping's figure emerged from the water.
"Lin Yu, jump down with your backpack. Hurry up. I've opened a cave under the river. Safety is absolutely guaranteed!" Lu Haiping said.
"Okay, here we go."
Lin Yu didn't think much and hurriedly stuffed the energy block into his arms. Then Lin Yu jumped into the river carrying his and Lu Haiping's backpacks.
Under the river, Lu Haiping took Lin Yu's arm and swam hard to the bottom of the waterfall. The cold river water made Lin Yu couldn't help but shiver.
Just when Lin Yu could no longer hold his breath, Lu Haiping dragged Lin Yu upstream and climbed into a narrow and upward passage.
"Cough~cough~cough~I almost choked to death, can't you consider the feelings of the wounded?"
Lin Yu, who had been fed several mouthfuls of muddy water, complained with resentful eyes.
Lu Haiping pressed a button on his combat uniform, and a transparent film covering the surface of his skin gradually disappeared.
"Old Lin, you should be grateful that this T2-level combat suit has an internal circulation function. Otherwise, if I had dragged you underwater for so long, how would I have the strength to drag you upstream?"
While changing the topic, Lu Haiping took out a palm-sized device to serve as a light source. However, his expression looked a bit playful, but judging from his expression, he definitely wanted to see Lin Yu make a fool of himself.
Lin Yu didn't pay attention to Lu Haiping's expression, but lay on the ground and took a few deep breaths.
Suddenly, I felt like I had difficulty breathing, lack of oxygen?
Lin Yu quickly looked towards the edge of the cave. It was obviously newly dug!
But Lu Haiping was well prepared. He took out an oxygen bottle from his backpack and gently opened a small valve on it. Suddenly, the entire cave was filled with fresh and natural air.
"Huh~huh~ Didn't the captain say there's no need to bring an oxygen tank? Why did you even think of bringing this thing? I never thought you were so far-sighted before."
Lin Yu said with admiration on his face.
A proud smile appeared on Lu Haiping's lips. He did not answer Lin Yu's question first, but pointed to the combat uniform on his body.
"There are many things that you didn't notice. Where do you think I got this combat uniform? I picked it up after the fat captain. I saw with my own eyes that the captain took two sets, and there was still one set left in his backpack. If it doesn’t go down, it will be easier for me;
The oxygen bottles are even more outrageous. That fat guy keeps saying that the air on this planet is suitable for human beings to breathe, but he just misleads us not to bring oxygen bottles. In fact, all the oxygen bottles in the warehouse are almost destroyed, and only three bottles are still usable. , and he took a bottle with him. "
After explaining the origin of the oxygen cylinder, Lu Haiping seemed not satisfied and couldn't help but curse.
"Although that damn fat guy usually shouts at us and looks like he wants his nose to grow on top of his head, he is definitely the one who knows best if there are things on the entire battleship that can save lives. There is absolutely no harm in following him to get things. wrong."
Lin Yu ignored Lu Haiping's complaints about the fat captain. Anyway, they had long been accustomed to secretly scolding the captain when they had nothing to do. Instead, he looked at the backpack in Lu Haiping's hand and said expectantly.
"You are such a damn talent. Do you have any other good things you can bring out for me to show my brother?"
Lu Haiping quickly pulled his backpack and waved his hand pretending not to care.
"Nothing more, that's basically it. Have you rested enough? Let's continue digging after we have rested enough.
I heard that some powerful extraordinary warriors can use their mental power to penetrate the ground and detect conditions tens of meters deep underground. Although the training system of the earth lizards and ours is different and is based on physical training, we cannot be careless and must prevent it. This happens. "
Lin Yu nodded. Although he felt that Lu Haiping was changing the topic, he somehow felt that what he said seemed to make sense, so he took a short break and continued digging with Lu Haiping.
Lu Haiping used his combat uniform again, and a laser sword made of pure energy appeared in his right hand.
With a light stab and a cut, a large area of stone and soil mixture was dug out.
Lin Yu stood behind, holding an empty backpack filled with soil. After filling it with soil, he took it to the hole and poured it out.
This is a very large waterfall. The cave is located in the mountain behind the waterfall. This small amount of soil falls down and is washed away by the flowing water of the waterfall, making no waves at all.
The cycle continued like this, taking a break when tired. It took more than three hours to dig down a cave of more than 20 meters, and had to stop until underground water gushes upwards.
Lu Haipingte built a pocket version of two rooms and one living room at the bottom. There is a larger platform in the middle and two smaller holes on the sides. There is a thirty centimeter earth wall between the two small holes. It's like two rooms without doors.
Moreover, Lu Haiping dug another bifurcated passage ten meters upward, specifically to solve the problem of grain cycle.
When Lin Yu came back from pouring the last bag of soil, he saw Lu Haiping playing with the palm-sized machine he had just used for lighting. He laid the machine flat in the middle of the platform and unfolded it. After a few operations, more than thirty projections appeared. In mid-air.
After picking and choosing, we were left with thirteen projections that worked properly and had a wide field of view.
"If you're tired, go to sleep first. I'll fine-tune the monitoring projection. We'll take turns monitoring again tomorrow to see if there's any danger nearby."
"Yeah," Lin Yu responded in a low voice. It had been less than ten hours since he woke up from this world, and he had gone through treatment, fighting, running away, and avoiding.
After a few more hours of hard work, I was already exhausted physically and mentally. I randomly picked a small cave and bent over, crawled in and lay down.
…
In a daze, Lin Yu seemed to have had a nightmare.
I dreamed of a young child who was learning to talk. He accidentally smashed a Buddha statue with a big belly while playing at home. A black bead fell out of the Buddha statue and was swallowed directly by the child.
This scene was seen by the mother of the toddler. She hurriedly took pictures and picked at it, but she couldn't get it out. Finally, she went to the hospital to take a X-ray, but nothing was found. The black bead just disappeared into the little boy's belly. inside.
It was not until some time later, after seeing the child growing up healthily and without any problems, that I felt relieved.
The matter ended there, but why does this young mother look so much like her mother in the previous life?
...
The scene in the dream changed and a young girl appeared.
"Lin Yu, we have never been suitable to be together. You can't even afford a suburban house in Pengcheng. You work overtime or code all day long. How can you fulfill your promise to bring me happiness?"
A delicate girl loudly questioned Lin Yu in a dilapidated rental house.
...
"Brother Lin Yu, my dream is to be a heroic and powerful female general. You have to work hard. I hope we can meet again at the Federal Military Academy."
A woman with short hair touched Lin Yu's head and comforted him.
...
"What the hell are you writing? The whole team has a problem with the part you wrote. Do you know that you are dragging down the progress of the entire team?
Let me tell you, Lin Yu, you have to work overtime for me today. If you don't understand, don't even think about getting off work. "
The mean supervisor yelled, pointed at Lin Yu's nose and cursed.
...
"Xiaoyu, have you really decided to become a soldier? Do you know that the number of soldiers who die in battle every year is calculated as a percentage?
Your father is not dead yet, so it is not your turn to support this family. Just work as a maintenance apprentice for me. In a few years, you will have a craft that is enough to support your family. "
...
Lin Yu's brain waves were extremely active, and he seemed to have had a long, long dream. For a while, he dreamed that he was growing up under a red flag, enjoying the blessings of 996, and having peaceful years.
I dreamed that he was born on a remote planet with young dreams and rebellion.
"Lin Yu, why are you still working overtime? Be careful of occupational diseases or sudden death. I have a friend who is always given various reasons by his boss to work overtime. His girlfriend is also involved with his boss. How should I remind him? ?”
"We were attacked, damn the natives, immediately enter the first level combat state, boom~~"
...
"Where is this?"
Lin Yu opened his eyes and woke up from the nightmare. He appeared in a cramped spherical space.
His body seemed to have become much smaller, surrounded by black solid walls, and his body emitted a little fluorescent light, illuminating the small space, which totaled about one cubic meter.
Lin Yu exhausted all his strength, tried up and down, left and right, and still couldn't shake this dark space at all.
In the panic, time is passing bit by bit...
