But no matter how much ore is dug, it can never be compared with the original reserves.
All resources are limited, and one must budget carefully. This kind of life... is indeed a bit embarrassing.
Looking at these ores, Zhang Ming's idea of picking up garbage was about to start, and he subconsciously wanted to be a garbage worker. Then he smiled dumbly. These pyrites, black jade, and Qinghai stones are actually not valuable. They can be seen everywhere in the seabed veins of the Sea of Demon Gods. When converted into human currency, they are only worth tens of thousands of dollars per ton. Only by mobilizing the power of the entire civilization can it be meaningful to pick it up.
After bypassing the mines and staying away from the outside sunlight, Zhang Ming suddenly felt a cold air approaching quickly, and he quickly took a step back.
"coming!"
Then in the next second, a strange sound sounded!
A thick black shadow climbed all the way down the stairs.
Taking a closer look, a slug-like creature about 8 meters long rushed to the side of the snake man's black scales at an extremely fast speed! The larger the shadow beast, the higher the combat power. It is not a powerful species with a body length of 8 meters, but its speed is simply lightning fast.
After the two cyan sticky tentacles came into contact with the black scales on the snake man's body, they gradually stuck together.
The rich darkness and coldness hit the soul, causing Black Scale to roar "Ah".
The small team of four naturally knew that they were under attack and reacted as quickly as possible, aiming their guns at the shadow beasts one by one.
Especially the "Black Scale" who bore the brunt of the attack. Although he has long recognized the terror of the shadow beast, only by experiencing it personally can he know how powerful and weird it is.
The cold touch that penetrated deep into his soul seemed to paralyze his soul.
Let his body continue to weaken!
Even though this was a snake man who was famous for his defensive ability and strong will, he still retreated steadily in the face of this terrifying mental impact, as if he might be pulled into that terrifying dark space at any time.
He exerted all his strength and yelled "Ah", and the scales on his body began to become colorful to resist the erosion of the shadow beast's power. He shouted with red eyes: "I can't move, but I can still resist...still." Able to resist...and still...still..."
"Quickly turn up the light! Quickly turn up the light!"
Beishan on the side quickly increased the light intensity.
At the same time, he used a jagged weapon that emitted extremely high heat to cut through it!
This is a "high-serrated weapon" produced by the Grand Academy of Sciences. It uses the high-speed rotation of the saw teeth to achieve an indestructible effect.
The surface of the weapon is energized with high voltage and has a high temperature of 6,000 degrees Celsius!
This saw cut out a mass of black energy!
The electric current was passed to the shadow beast, making a "crackling" sound.
Zhang Ming smelled a strong burning smell and quickly took out a gas mask from his backpack and put it on.
Not to mention, the robots developed by humans are quite capable of fighting.
The shadow beast was stinging and flicked its tail, but was blocked by the heated shield of another mecha, making a "bang" sound.
"Black Scale, can you still resist? I will saw off its head right now!!"
Hei Lin tried his best and roared: "Ah... I can still... I can still..."
"Electricity, your electric current... has passed to me!!"
In the next moment, in the blink of an eye, Bai Lin activated the solar beam in his hand, and an orange light as thick as an arm hit the shadow beast's head.
With a "snap", the shadow beast fell to the ground.
Everyone quickly turned on the high-power lights. The snake man who was attacked gasped for air, and there was a burnt smell on the surface of his skin.
And this shadow beast was transformed from a contaminated lion man, and his head just happened to be pierced by a solar beam.
Judging from the size of the shadow beast, it should be only an average level.
"These weapons are powerful enough! The power of civilization level cannot be underestimated."
Zhang Ming inspected the mine that was hit by the sunlight beam, and then took a look at the black-scale snake man who was panting like an ox and his eyes were blurred.
Under normal circumstances, most civilizations use offensive methods far more than defensive methods.
The experiment just now once again yielded valuable data. Under the attack of the shadow beast, a single national warrior could only last for about 10 seconds.
Once controlled, it must have team support, otherwise it will be directly controlled until death.
The risk of this kind of experiment is naturally very high. If you are not careful, you may be irreversibly contaminated, or you may be dragged into a different space and never come back.
He still admires these warriors who can dedicate everything they have to civilization.
At least he couldn't do it himself - he, Lao Zhang, came here more for some excitement and to have fun; or maybe he was a soft-hearted person who was not willing to see his compatriots with potential die, so he ran away Come here and watch a little bit.
Snap! Snap!
A pile of ore was hit by the "sun beam" just now and turned into red magma, rolling down to the ground drop by drop.
Zhang Ming was a little lucky that this mine was not coal, otherwise the entire area would have burned, and all the machines would have been burned up.
Although the four members of the expedition team killed a shadow beast, they did not feel any excitement. They were all nervous while summarizing the data they had just obtained.
"Under the light intensity of 100,000 lus, the shadow beast obviously showed fear... Under the light intensity of 200,000 lus, the mental pressure we endured was greatly reduced, and the shadow beast transferred most of its hatred to the light source."
Beishan explained: "The intensity of the sun outside is about 80,000."
"So we turn on the light source to about 50,000, so that it will not attract the hatred of those behemoths, but also eliminate the scattered small risks. If the light is too strong, the hatred drawn will be too high."
"As for high-frequency weapons, they still have some effect..."
"The defense level of the shadow beast just now is equivalent to 3000 units of King Kong. It can be easily broken through with high temperature and indestructibility."
"Understood, let's move my brother out first. He looks a little delirious." Snakeman Bai Lin said with some worry.
Everyone was not optimistic because they knew that this was just the most ordinary shadow beast.
Master Shimama pretended to praise: "You did a good job. It seems that even without Lao Zhang, you guys can kill this thing."
"Dean Shi, do you have any good ideas?" The two human investigators quickly asked for advice.
Shimama was immediately stumped, and the old voice said: "I mean the snake people did a good job, they were brave and fearless, and used traditional fighting methods to obtain information. Instead of the two of you hiding in the mecha. Guy, what a scientific way of fighting, I think it’s just cowardly and afraid of death!”
Zhang Ming sneered to defend his student: "What nonsense are you talking about? Is the traditional way of fighting superior to others? In modern warfare, humans hide in air-conditioned rooms, move their fingers, and use missiles to bombard the Flaming Horns thousands of miles away."
"Can your brave and fearless Flame-Horned Man shoot ten thousand miles with a bow and arrow? Or ride ten thousand miles on a horse?"
Shimama was immediately furious: "Xuanwu can spray ten thousand miles with one breath, isn't it okay?"
"Heh, Xuanwu is not the pet of the Flame Horn people. I admit that Xuanwu is very strong, but Xuanwu is also on good terms with humans. Maybe the two of them can help each other?"
This sentence not only complimented Xuanwu, but also touched Shimama's vagina, and made it impossible to refute.
It has to admit that if a war breaks out between humans and the Yanjiao people, as long as Xuanwu doesn't take action, the Yanjiao people will definitely be crushed one-sided!
Just kidding, no matter in terms of technological level or individual combat power, human beings are now much more powerful than the Flaming Horns in the past!
When the investigation team heard the two teachers arguing, they could only remain silent.
The snake man actually thinks that human fighting methods are quite good. If it is not a last resort, who would want to suffer here?
After everyone moved Black Scales out, they found several dark palm prints on his shoulders. The scales were corroded and slightly smelly.
This black snake man really had a strong will. He took out a bottle of green potion that he carried with him and poured it on the location of the palm print.
After sitting in the sun for more than half an hour, the palm prints emitted a large amount of black mist and gradually disappeared.
After Black Scale recovered, he recalled his dead compatriot and felt deeply in his heart: "It is really difficult to encounter this monster alone. Their virtualization ability is too powerful, and they bring With an inexplicable power.”
"Once you're caught by them, you can't get away."
"But if there are targeted weapons, especially with the help of sunlight, it won't be a problem for us to fight against some ordinary monsters."
"Even this solar beam requires the energy of the Dragon Ball... and the cost is too expensive."
The same goes for humans. Freezing light relies on "snowflakes", and the output is always limited.
Fortunately, the mission this time was only for exploration, not to kill all the shadow beasts in this world, nor to go deep into the interior of the continent, so everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
…
Next, I circled around the pyramid and encountered 6 more ordinary level shadow beasts.
With the help of Zhang Ming, he survived without any danger.
At this time, the advantages of technology become apparent.
The two mechas developed by humans have never been attacked!
The snake man was attacked 7 times in a row, and he was paralyzed by the attack!
If it weren't for the fact that this was a major civilized event, and Zhang Ming was watching over him, the two snake men would have just run away!
The reason is very simple. The mecha is equipped with a "mirror interlayer", and this mirror interlayer is filled with strong light.
If shadow beasts want to attack humans, they have to pass through this light-filled mirror layer, which is very uncomfortable and troublesome for them.
As for the traditional dragon scale armor on the snake man, although it is exquisitely made, in the eyes of the shadow beast, as long as it is not completely surrounded, it is not much different from the air.
As for attacking Lao Zhang? Shadow beasts also possess subtle animal intelligence. There are weaker snake-men to bully, so what do they do by provoking that terrifying monster? What kind of joke are you kidding the world?
