At night, the bright silver moon hangs high in the sky, and the night is dotted with stars in the east. The faint light illuminates the land in the mining area into a deep blue, and the forest on the top of the mountain is plunged into dense darkness.
Darkness and silence are eroding the atmosphere of the environment and people's sense of security all the time. Only a few standing bright yellow night lights illuminate the mining area to resist the darkness spreading from outside the dark forest.
At 11 o'clock in the morning, the large mining machines have already stopped working, and the producers are sleeping peacefully in their temporary dormitories. Among the few tents with lights on were those of Wu Qi, Mo Li, and Li Fushan, the person in charge of the mining area. Outside the camp, half of the guards were walking in the dimly lit mining area, working the night shift.
Among the half of the guards, there were four from Wu Qi's team. Wu Qi, Chris, Gao Yuan, and Qi Qi were ordered by Mo Li to work night shifts and could not sleep until at least 3 a.m. at the Killing Post. Wu Qi asked Gao Yuan to patrol near the camp at all times to prevent the whole team from leaving and Guo Baibo sleeping alone in the camp would not be safe.
Three people and one fox spread out in the huge mining area. Wu Qi, holding an electromagnetic rifle in his legs, patrolled from the outer circle of the mining area to the outer circle. When he walked to the northwest of the edge of the mining area, Dong looked up consciously and saw a large gap of trees in the boundless mountain forest.
Seeing the area devoured by wildfires, Wu Qi recalled the black wind giant bear that escaped from the bottom of his legs. He didn't know whether the black wind giant bear was seriously injured and died after its injuries worsened, or whether it was recovering from its injuries and waiting for the opportunity for revenge.
Plague species rarely attack after the mining area is suspended. If there are, they must be in groups. Is this the rule that Wu Qi asked from a producer at noon
You don't know if you don't ask, but upon asking, Wu Qi discovered that not only the guards headed by Mo Li, but also the miners who worked in the mining area and had nothing to do with them didn't treat them very well, so Wu Qi used two genetic enhancement potions. Bribed a miner to reveal some information about the mining area.
Was the bribe successful? The miner told Wu Qi that the mining area had been mined for nearly three months. Every other month, members of the escort team would return to the base in batches according to the reported time; so far, very few guards in the No. 130 mining area have died. Only three soldiers were wounded. Correspondingly, all the convoys killed a total of not one thousand but eight hundred of the plague species that attacked the mining area in those three months.
Wu Qi soon learned that Mo Li's group had been there for 23 days, that is to say, they asked to leave with them after 7 days. Wu Qi was puzzled when he learned that information. According to the rules, they also have to serve as guards in the mining area for 30 days.
The miner did not answer Wu Qi's doubts, but instead said that he wanted to take a rest. Wu Qi decisively added two more gene-enhancing potions, breaking the miner's initial seal.
The miners said that the detector detected that there was not much Gossite in the underground of that mining area. According to the past mining speed, it could be mined within seven days. The value of Yudong's ore mining was low, and the mining department did not let the equipment in the entire mining area. Instead of leaving the manpower and manpower in place to mine the remaining ore, it is better to transfer all the resources to the newly discovered ore veins discovered by the survey team outside the wall and develop a new mining area.
After Wu Qi asked, he finally understood the positioning of their team in the mining area, that is, whether it was the so-called replenishment of troops. But after solving a question, the old doubts have resurfaced - why did Joestar assign their entire team to the escort team to supplement the supply of troops
The miner finally spoke his mind. He said, "I have never seen an example of a whole team being assigned to a department to perform a task. Everyone there asked if they had any companions when they first entered Dawn Base." All of them have been torn apart by Joestar, so it’s reasonable to be jealous of Wu Qi and his team.”
Wu Qi's deal with the miners was officially terminated at that sentence. Now Wu Qi is patrolling with a gun in the dark east repeatedly reviewing the information obtained through the transaction of four gene-enhancing potions.
His information base was much richer than when he first entered the mining area, and Wu Qi did not think that the information he had spent so much effort and money to collect was useless. They helped Wu Qi make up for the intelligence gap with Mo Li and other guards. They learned basic information about the mining area, which may be useful when he misses Mo Li in a month.
At that time, Wu Qi suddenly caught sight of an eye with a strange light shining on the edge of the dark forest. The dark environment could not weaken Wu Qi's vision. He immediately saw clearly the dire wolf that was lurking and investigating with one eye open.
The terrible wolf seemed to have been staring at Wu Qi. Wu Qi turned around and ran away when he noticed it. Wu Qi raised the electromagnetic electromagnetic rifle with lightning movement, and saw that the skin and coat color of the dire wolf changed rapidly, and it perfectly blended into the complex forest environment in the blink of an eye.
Wu Qi estimated that the hit rate of that shot would not exceed 60%, so he immediately rushed out, jumped over the buffer zone at the edge of the mining area, and broke into the dark forest.
Countless fragments of moonlight fell to the ground through the dense sea of leaves, and together with the lush bushes and dark-toned trees standing one by one, weaved into a dark and silent forest. Wu Qi couldn't see the dire wolf running so fast, but he could listen to the dire wolf's footsteps.
To Wu Qi's surprise, he heard the footsteps of a terrible wolf. The target was 150 meters directly in front of him and was slowly decelerating. Except for the footsteps of the dire wolf, there were no other footsteps in the surrounding forest.
That is completely contrary to the rules mentioned by the miners, but you should not take everything at face value. Dire wolves that know how to detect and escape undoubtedly have normal intelligence. Other dire wolves must know how to weaken the vigilance of their prey by lying motionless. If he chooses If you go deep into the forest in pursuit of dire wolves, you might fall into a wolf trap.
Wu Qi thought comprehensively and decided to withdraw from the forest. After all, the forest is so big and there are so many plague species that killing one or two is meaningless.
At this moment, Wu Qi suddenly heard a series of gentle footsteps. He held his breath and put his ears close to the ground to listen carefully.
The sound sources of the footsteps are multiple and complicated, and the stamping movement becomes more and more intense, like a stormy interlude after the end of Cho Cuan. Wu Qi closed his eyes and seemed to see a dark ground with countless raindrops falling on the ground, creating multiple fine ripples.
Within a radius of 200 meters, there were the footsteps of more than 30 dire wolves, and they had all reached the edge of the forest!
Wu Qi was slightly shocked. He had originally made a guess, but now it seemed that his guess was true. There are indeed a large number of dire wolves lurking at the edge of the forest, waiting for opportunities to catch the guards.
The wolves started to move in the east, and the sound of a large number of footsteps reached Wu Qi's ears, indicating that they were about to attack the mining area at night!
