Chapter 545: The vast project
Translator: 549690339
Li xiaonian didn’t know who he long was, so he turned to Shi Xinyue.
Before Shi Xinyue could say anything, he Wannian said frankly, ” this is my great-grandson, he long. The other five are his guards and members who can influence he long. They are right here. You can kill them or cut them up.
!!
Hearing this, he Long’s face paled and he shuddered. He hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, ” great-grandfather, I was wrong. Please don’t abandon me. From now on, I’ll definitely not do anything wrong.
He didn’t know li xiaonian, but he could recognize the mayor and the inspector. In this situation, coupled with what his great grandfather he Wannian had just said, how could he not know that he had been abandoned and was about to face death?
The moment he long knelt down, his lackeys also came to their senses and kowtowed to he Wannian, ” “Great ancestor, I didn’t put in any effort for the he family, but I’ve also made some contributions. Please show mercy.”
……
He Wannian felt very embarrassed to face a group of incompetent descendants and clansmen. He snorted coldly and said, ” “Shut up! When you were bullying others, did you ever think that this day would come? Now, your life is in the hands of others. Whether you live or die, it’s up to brother li.”
Although he Wannian was cold, he was willing to save his blood relatives if he could. However, he was more concerned about the force behind li xiaonian and the cosmic warship he promised.
He long came to his senses and turned to li xiaonian. my Lord, I was wrong. Please forgive me. Our he family is rich. As long as you ask for it, we are willing to compensate you, no matter how much you want.
Money?
If he didn’t have some ability, he could imagine what would happen to his younger brothers and sisters, especially his younger brother li zhedong.
Thinking of his brother’s miserable condition, li xiaonian’s face was filled with killing intent. His palm turned into a sharp and tough blade, and he slashed forward.
He Long’s head was separated from his body with a ‘Puchi’ sound. His head rolled on the ground. At this moment, he Long’s eyes widened. He couldn’t understand why his great-grandfather would abandon him. Why would an unknown person dare to kill him in front of his great-grandfather?
He didn’t even know who he had offended to end up in such a state.
With he Long’s death, his bodyguards and lackeys turned pale.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The five of them fled in five different directions.
Li xiaonian ignored the members who were running away and looked at he Wannian with an indifferent gaze.”Senior, please clean it up.”
At this moment, he Wannian felt very uncomfortable when he saw his great-grandson being killed by li xiaonian with his own eyes, especially when he heard li xiaonian’s request. Anger instantly rushed up to his face, and he said through gritted teeth,”Alright!”
With a flick of his finger, five pieces of gravel flew in five different directions towards the escaping members. The five of them were shot through the head almost at the same time, and they fell to the ground without a sound.
Li xiaonian cast a glance at them. I’ll have to trouble the two of you to pay more attention to excavating the underground magma layer. I still have something to do. I’ll take my leave first.
……
In the backyard of the district Lord’s mansion.
Lu Qianhui woke up from her coma. She looked at her surroundings and then at her own body. She was stunned for a long time before she muttered, ” “Could it be that … I’m dreaming?”
As she spoke, Lu Qianhui pinched her own face. The slight pain made her confirm that she was not dreaming.
Suddenly, Lu Qianhui saw her second brother, li zhedong, lying not far away from the bed. With just a glance, she couldn’t help but burst into tears. second brother, wuwuwu … It’s my fault.
”
Li zhedong opened his mouth and tried his best to respond, but he couldn’t speak normally because he didn’t have a tongue. He could only hum a simple tone.
At this moment, li xiaonian also returned. Seeing his sister crying, he gently held her in his arms. Qian Hui, don’t be sad. Although your second brother’s condition is rather bad, there’s still a chance for him to be treated. I’ll definitely help zhedong return to a normal life within a year.
“Waa …”
When she saw that it was li xiaonian, Lu Qianhui hugged him tightly. “Big brother, wuwuwu.”
“It’s fine. This matter is already over. I’ve already killed the person who tried to kidnap you. With big brother here, everything will be fine.”
“Really?” Lu Qianhui raised her head and looked at li xiaonian.
“It’s true.” Li xiaonian answered with certainty.
……
While li xiaonian was consoling his younger brother and sister, the mecha troops of Freedom City were all summoned back and brought to an open space in the low-lying wilderness.
Shi Xinyue pointed at the ground where a big circle was drawn and ordered,” from now on, keep digging day and night. Keep digging in this circle. Don’t be lazy and use your fastest speed.
In order to ensure that they could dig into the magma layer, the diameter of the circle was a full 30 meters.
The mecha unit members didn’t know what the invigilator wanted to do, but since it was an order, they would naturally carry it out.
&Nbsp; boom ~
Creak …
Clang ~ clang ~
Hundreds of mechas and machines roared as they dug the soil continuously. The soil that was dug out was transported by the logistics team to an area several kilometers away to pile up.
The mecha operators were bored so they started chatting through the walkie-talkie.
I don’t know what the Inspector General wants us to dig up. He actually called all the mechas back.
that’s enough. The inspector’s orders are the mayor’s orders. We just have to follow his orders. Why do we have to care so much? anyway, with the inspector’s magnanimity, he won’t skimp on our wages.
Hundreds of mechas dug the ground. In just over an hour, they had dug dozens of meters underground.
The initial pit was easy to dig, but … The deeper one went, the more difficult it became, especially when it came to transporting the excavated soil and rocks out of the ground.
Just as everyone felt that this was a difficult task, another group of mechanical soldiers entered the battlefield.
Seeing this group of people, everyone’s mouth was half open.
the he family, the Fang family, the mo family, the Guan family … Oh my God, have all the families been mobilized? ”
To everyone’s shock, mechas jumped into the pit one after another. The mechas hung in the middle of the deep hole and formed a transportation ladder.
“Brother, you can just hand over the soil and gravel you excavated.”
“Oh, okay.”
The members of Mu Chen’s immediate team returned to their senses and responded, hurriedly doing their homework.
As more and more machines entered the field, the digging speed increased.
In a day’s time, the mechanical Army had dug 2356 meters down. At this depth, the sun could no longer shine down, and the deep pit could only be illuminated by light.
Not only that, the appearance of an underground river in such a deep underground space would cause a large amount of water to flow into the deep hole. This would be a disaster for the excavation project.
Most of the mechas on the abandoned planet were assembled from parts picked up from the garbage dump. The quality of the mechas was very worrying. After being soaked in the underground water, dozens of them had been damaged.
In order to extract the underground water and stop the surrounding underground water from flowing into the deep pit again, another large group of mechanical troops made a hollow cylinder with produced iron sheets, fixed the surroundings, and inserted it deep into the ground.
This was a huge and vast project.
The deeper they went, the more difficult it was to dig.
……
The days passed by.
The entire Freedom City had changed. Other than the necessary farming and breeding, all the members were either involved in digging deep pits or gathered together for military training.
There were three inner and three outer layers of Freedom City, and no one was allowed to investigate or leave.
Even so, the Supreme Leader Bai Yitian, who was in the sea of garbage, still received the news.
The man in white gathered all the black Law enforcers and said, ” “Tell me, what the hell is Freedom City doing? Why are you using such a large force just to dig a deep pit?”
The black law-enforcement officers looked at each other.
A moment later, a Black Law enforcer with an aquiline nose said, ” My Lord, my informant has been investigating for a long time, but there is still no news. I only know that such a vast project is led by Shi Xinyue, but there is no news about Mu Chen and he Wannian.
As soon as the hook-nosed man finished speaking, another Black Law enforcer responded, ” “My situation is similar. However, according to the information provided by my informant, I speculate that Mu Chen wants to dig deeper into the magma layer. Perhaps … They found something that needs to use the magma layer’s temperature to continuously heat up the item?”
“My Lord, they’re just a group of ants with incomplete genes. Even if they have some strength, what can they do? Didn’t we ask Captain Fujie to send some high-power weapons over last time? as long as the Fujie battleship arrives again, we can directly kill those disobedient guys.”
that’s right, I agree with Yuni. They’re just a bunch of disobedient rats. There’s no need to make a big fuss. If we start a war, the number of ants under our control will decrease even more, which is not conducive to the garbage selection and collection work at the end of the war.
Bai Yitian frowned and pondered for a long time. In the end, he still listened to his subordinate’s opinion.
In his eyes, Mu Chen and he Wannian were only two mutated rats. They were slightly difficult to deal with, but there was no need for him to risk his life and fight with the two rats.
One must know that he was a high-ranking citizen with a distinguished status. There was nothing to be proud of when he fought and killed a group of ants with genetic deficiencies. On the contrary, if he was injured or even killed, it would not be worth the loss.
As long as the abandoned planet could operate normally, there would be enough lowly people working for him to find an endless stream of recyclable items from the garbage.
……
The deep hole dug by Freedom City had reached a depth of 5.8 kilometers.
At this depth, there was still no magma zone. At this stage of the underground, there was another huge problem: oil and gas layers.
&Nbsp; the mech operated, and the sparks from excavating the rock instantly lit up the entire deep hole.
Intense flames shot up into the sky and a loud explosion was heard.
This explosion had killed more than 30 people, and more than 1000 were injured.
After carrying the wounded back to the ground, Shi Xinyue continued expressionlessly, ” “Continue digging, don’t stop.”
At this moment …
Someone couldn’t help but ask, ” invigilator, what are we digging this deep hole for? these days, we’ve spent so much manpower and resources, and even sacrificed so many brothers. If you don’t give us an answer, we won’t feel comfortable doing this.
that’s right, inspector. Please tell us the answer.
Everyone looked at Shi Xinyue in unison.
With a cold face, Shi Xinyue pointed at the two people, ” “You two are fired.” “Bring them back and investigate their identities,” he said.
As soon as the voice fell, several shadow guards suddenly appeared and forcefully dragged the two people who spoke away.
The expressions of the two people who were being detained turned very ugly. inspector, we’re just asking a question. You’re abusing your power.
“That’s right, we have the freedom and power to speak. You can’t treat us like this.”
No matter how the two tried to explain, the shadow guards would not listen to them.
At this moment, everyone fell silent.
……
At the bottom of the pit, Mu Chen and he Wannian were not idle. After they had disguised themselves, they had turned into ordinary employees and directed the excavation work deep underground.
If it weren’t for the two of them fighting on the front lines, there would have been more casualties from the excavation.
In addition, they had to transform into coolies and use brute force from time to time to shatter some unusually hard stones.
The deep pit with a diameter of thirty meters was enough to accommodate hundreds of people working at the same time.
Li xiaonian would visit the place from time to time to check on the progress and give some suggestions and plans.
As time passed, the hole had been dug for 26 kilometers. The rocks on the ground had become even harder. Li xiaonian checked the soil on the ground, and his expression became a little unsightly.
Judging from the temperature, humidity, and hardness, it would take at least an average depth to dig to the magma layer in this area.
this damn abandoned planet. The thickness of the rock layer is as thick as 52 kilometers, which is almost 20 kilometers deeper than earth. In other words, the size of this planet should be three times bigger than earth.
After calculating and measuring, li xiaonian walked towards Mu Chen and he Wannian with an unsightly expression and said, ” the situation isn’t looking good, ” ye mo said. at this speed, we won’t be able to dig into the magma layer within a month.
“……”
“……”
Mu Chen and he Wannian’s faces changed drastically.
He Wannian’s face darkened,’so you can’t leave this place if you can’t complete the task? Can’t your superiors give you some time?”
Li xiaonian shook his head. I’d like to, too, but the rules are very strict. If we say one month, then we’ll do it. I’d like to ask the two of you to do it yourself. Don’t conserve your energy and speed up the excavation.
The digging speed of the mecha was not slow, but it was still a few levels slower than the strength of Mu Chen and he Wannian.
Mu Chen closed his eyes and pondered. After a long time, he opened his eyes.”Based on your calculations, how much longer do we have to dig before we can reach the magma layer?”
“There should still be half the depth.” Li xiaonian replied honestly.
“Forget it,” Mu Chen looked at he Wannian. old man, whether we can leave this abandoned planet alive or not will depend on our performance. Let’s give it our all.
He wanted to preserve his strength so that he could deal with the black Law enforcement Army that might appear at any time. The movement here was so big that it was impossible to hide from the black Law enforcement.
Right now, they no longer had the chance to endure.
He Wannian clenched his fists and nodded, ” “Alright, since that’s the case, let’s do it together,”
He!
Mu Chen let out a deep roar as a layer of golden energy condensed on his fist, before he slammed it onto the ground.
Buzzzzzz!
The surrounding ground seemed to have been plowed by a huge force, but the surrounding cave walls were safe and sound, not collapsing.
A layer of the hard ground was plowed open. The mecha operators looked at the man in the military uniform in shock. Their mouths were half open.”Zone … Zone leader?”
