Chapter 43 Danger Zone
After getting this combat tarantula, we got a super excavator. Please search (Pin#shu.....). The fastest updated novel, the thighs that were cut off quickly grew after being replenished by energy liquid, and then started to dig holes under my control. The eight legs seemed very thin, but they were not slow at all when they were working, which made the soil and rocks fly around, and then a guy moved into the passage bit by bit. The excavation speed was much faster than the turtle crawling speed. Although the turtle crawled slowly, don't forget that they were digging holes! This speed is already quite amazing!
With this thing assist, we went through the blocked passage in less than twenty minutes, and then found another mountain in front of us. Yes, that's right, it was really a mountain. The entire rock on the upper part of the mountain collapsed and completely sealed this side. My scan results showed that the stone in front of us was at least thirty meters thick, with no edges on the top and bottom. Anyway, it was basically impossible to go around, so we could only dig hard, but it was not easy to penetrate such a deep rock.
"Thirty meters deep?" The guide asked in surprise: "How long will it take for you to dig it?"
I touched the rock in front of me and said, "This is a whole stone rich in uranium elements. It has an effect similar to depleted uranium armor and is extremely hard. To make holes in this kind of thing, an ordinary drill bit is useless. That wolf spider is OK, but it won't be too fast."
"What should I do?"
"In fact, it is a good idea to use it. I'm afraid that the passage here will not be able to withstand the second landslide."
"This is absolutely not possible." A structural engineer in the guide said, simply reading the instrument: "No, the pressure is too high. Once negative pressure is formed, it will shatter the entire mountain and cannot be used."
"Then I can only dig slowly."
"I'm afraid that the people below will not last that time!" said the guide of the medical team next to him.
For a moment, all of us fell into silence. The medical team hoped to be fast, but the engineering team did not allow the blasting. The walls in this place were too hard and the excavation speed would definitely not be fast. This was simply an unsolvable method.
Ling thought for a moment and said, "Maybe you can use the ionic effect field."
I hesitated for a while after hearing Ling's suggestion, and thought for a while, it seemed that it was indeed a solution. However, although I understood, the guide next to me did not understand. I asked in confusion: "What are you talking about?"
"A very special technology, but once activated, it will generate very huge electromagnetic radiation, but it seems that such a place is not a big deal."
If you want to talk about other places, I still need to worry about it. This place is originally a uranium mine, and gamma rays are everywhere. It seems that it is no big deal to get some more radiation in such places.
"Does the radiation dose exceed the upper limit of our protective clothing?" asked the guide.
I nodded and said, "Of course. But you can hide in the passage when you came. That's all right."
After the agreement was agreed, we quickly started to act. Programmable atoms were required to arrange the ion effect field, which happened to be full of uranium mines. It can be absorbed and converted into atomic armor by the way, and can also strengthen defenses by the way.
Releasing programmable atoms quickly completed a ring close to half a human height in front of us. The colored atoms kept climbing up the base of the ring itself, and then merged into the edge part little by little to gradually form a complete ring belt. The scene was like magic, which was really magical. Unfortunately, the guides hid in the passage and did not stay here at all, so there were no outsiders.
After the ring was formed, a large bag immediately bulged up behind it, and then it began to grow continuously. A very complex protrusion was quickly formed, which could be exposed to the outside of the crystal. In fact, it was the quantum thruster nozzle.
The entire device took only a few minutes to complete, and finally formed a thing that looked like a car engine, but there was a ring in front of it that was biting tightly on the rock, and there were five tracks around it, which could be passed through the excavated passage.
After this thing was in place, I immediately activated its moving core. Then some blue nozzles suddenly began to emit dazzling blue light. At the same time, the two circular structures biting on the rock and the two round structures that showed off began to rotate in two directions. As these two parts rotated, the entire device immediately began to push into the inside of the rock little by little, and the speed became faster and faster.
"I didn't expect this thing to be so useful!" Even we were shocked by the equipment that was moving forward at a speed of no less than that of ordinary people jogging. But thinking about it is reasonable.
It was not invented by us. It was the warhead of the ground-boring bomb used by the creators. Generally, this kind of bomb was thrown by a small warship, and its front end was equipped with this plasma effect field device. After touching the ground, this thing would start drilling underground, and then drill into the center of the earth with the bombs behind it. Then with a bang, the entire planet turned into a pile of space meteorites flying all over the sky, with absolutely brutal power.
Of course, the bomb we made was not used to destroy the planet. It only had a digging drill, but the effect was still very good. It drilled several meters deep in the blink of an eye, and the speed was still accelerating.
It took about five or six minutes before the thing that was in front suddenly stopped running, then started to reverse, and quickly retreated from the passage. This was set in advance. After digging through, do not penetrate the last rock wall and return directly. This is to prevent someone from opposite sides. What if this thing penetrates through in one breath and even the survivors penetrate it?
This thing quickly retreated to us and immediately turned into dust and merged into the power armor on me. The next thing we need to find a way for ourselves.
Let Xiaochun call those guides back and order the tarantula to dig back. The tunnel here is too small to dig, and the tarantula cannot pass. It is better to let it dig a way back, at least let Iphrit follow, and maybe it can help.
The hole we just opened on the rock is about one meter and two in diameter. Anyway, it is enough for people to go there, and it is wide enough to wear power armor.
I climbed in first, then passed through the 35-meter-long passage and reached the bottom of the straight passage. There was a layer of rock about one centimeter thick here, which was left deliberately. I used electromagnetic scanning to scan the situation behind here, and then made a hole in the stone with one punch.
After lifting off the thin layer of rock skin at the entrance of the hole, we entered the space behind. It was obvious that the landslide was very powerful. The original passage had already arrived at a glance. It could be full of large stones or concrete blocks, and sometimes some exposed steel bars and hydraulic support beams. There were some narrow passages in the middle of these messy things. Of course, they were all spaces that supported each other between the stones. This passage could only be said to be barely able to pass by, but it could only be climbed forward with hands and feet. It was impossible to stand up and walk.
After I got into the passage we dug out, I began to climb forward along the gap between the stones in front of me. The people behind could only follow one after another, because the passage was so narrow that there was no way to go in parallel.
I climbed a short distance ahead and found a stone sealing half of the passage. The remaining gap was very small, and if I took off my power armor, I could barely squeeze through. But even if I could take off my power armor, the guide behind obviously could not do this. We were surrounded by uranium ore with strong radiation. Ordinary people would start vomiting blood within one minute as long as they took off their clothes, and they would definitely die within two minutes. So I also had to find a way to clear the road.
This rock is not big, and it is easy to get it open, but the problem is that it is still on the stone above. If I break this stone, the stone above will collapse, and the vibration may cause a chain reaction, and maybe we will be buried alive. I am fine anyway. Even if the entire mountain collapses, atomic armor can withstand it. I can dig it little by little with programmable atoms, so I can go out sooner or later, but the guide behind and the people waiting for rescue in front are not good, so I must deal with it carefully.
The structure of this stone. I carefully cut one-third of the rock with a laser cutting machine in the multi-function tool on my wrist, so that the space is enough for everyone to climb over.
After opening the passage, I continued to move forward. Fortunately, although the road ahead was difficult to walk, I could barely pass by.
After climbing among a pile of stones for seventy or eighty meters, I finally got out of the afflicted stone passage. I don’t know where this place is. Because of the landslide and the movement of the mountain, the original map was useless. What I can know is that this was once a fork in a certain passage, but half of it was blocked. I could have a huge gate in this part, but it seemed that it could not be opened.
"What's wrong? There's no way again?" The people behind crawled out one after another, and were stunned at the big iron gate in front.
One of the guides opened his wrist computer and operated it on it. Then he said, "This should be the isolation door of the rest area. Damn, why did you come here? This thing should be hundreds of meters away!"
“Is mountain movement so wide?”
"No, right, right." A guide next to him said while operating the wrist computer: "This door has not been moved yet."
"Impossible! We don't have..." The previous guide got stuck halfway through his speech.
The guide behind continued, "Do you understand? The passage has collapsed, and we are not on the original road. The collapsed stones on it raised the ground. We have been climbing up since the beginning, and this position is exactly the original rest area."
"If we say so, our current location should be near the original rest area." The previous guide said: "If we say so, the trapped people should be not far from here."
"Where was the final positioning of the personnel at that time?" I asked.
"Here." One of the guides gave me the screen of the wrist-style computer.
"Not far, but the direction is wrong!"
"Or else dig down one of the guides asked.
"No, the rock layer is too thick and uneven, so it is not easy to dig like this. It is even more troublesome to cause a secondary landslide. You must find a way to go." Another person suggested.
I had a previous topographic map around me, and then rescanned the current situation, and said, "A passage is less than ten meters ahead of here. If you dig these few meters, you can go there. You can get there first and then we will excavate."
So we are the only ones who are suitable for this place to be rescue teams. The passage in front of us is blocked with huge rocks of hundreds or thousands of kilograms. There is no excavator to use these things at all. However, the road ahead collapsed like that, and the excavator dug in little by little. It is not known that it was the year of the monkey and horse month. In comparison, it is much more convenient for us. We have reached this depth in less than an hour and a half, and the speed of carrying these huge rocks is not slower than that of the excavator.
The eight guides were grouped in groups, just like a courier company loading and loading goods, throwing hundreds of kilograms of huge rocks over and picking them up. They didn't know what to say.
Soon we cleared out a passage from the stone in front of us, and then we found that there was indeed a horizontal passage in front of us, but the outer wall was damaged, which was just right for us to enter. After entering from here, there was a door in front of the left, which was very similar to the previous gate. In fact, these two doors are the two entrances and exits of the rest area. We walked around the door in front by moving stones, but there was nothing we could do about this door here.
This kind of door is a sliding door that needs to be opened to the left and right sides, but the passage outside deforms, so there is no space for this door to slide, so we only have two options. Either remove it or make a hole in it.
The thickness of the protective doors in the uranium mine can be imagined. It is unrealistic to dismantle it, and it is not easy to dig holes. Fortunately, we are all destructive kings. When we put on the high-frequency vibrating blades together, a small hole that can barely be climbed through was quickly opened.
As soon as the door was opened, I smelled a bloody smell coming to my face. Unlike the guide, my helmet mask was open, and I was not afraid of radiation anyway. The strong bloody smell here means that at least several people died, otherwise it would not be so strong. However, compared to this, I also smelled a terrible smell, as if it was the smell of battery liquid. I guess some equipment was flattened and leaked out.
Carefully drilling into the entrance and exit, the smell inside became even worse. In addition to the two more serious strange smells before, there was also a slight smell of something burning, and it seemed that it was becoming more and more serious.
I activated all the scanning devices on my body to scan the environment inside, and then instantly the target was frozen on a small piece of grayish-white substance.
"Your sister! How come there is purified plutonium in this place? I have never heard of plutonium and natural ones!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for monthly votes for recommendations. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
