The tunnel is very long, at least seven or eight kilometers, but it does not go straight forward, but goes straight down. At the end of the tunnel is a huge industrial base integrating mining and production. In this industrial base, there are not only a large number of engineering robots, but also humans. They do work that the engineering robots are not capable of, such as repairing, blasting and picking ores.
These human miners were dressed in rags, and some were even half-clothed, doing heavy physical labor naked. Most of the miners are malnourished, dry and thin. There are not only men but also women, but women do not receive any preferential treatment here. They are engaged in heavy physical labor like men.
There are also a certain number of Blue Moon guards in the industrial base, as well as Blue Moon people who do complex production work. Although the specific number could not be determined, Xia Lei's brain judged the approximate number based on quick reconnaissance. There are about 100 Blue Moon people, about 500 combat robots, and about 200 Blue Moon staff members for the armed guards of this industrial base. Human miners have the largest number, at least a thousand.
There are no Evil Moon warriors from the Evil Moon Legion, nor soldiers from the Moon Core Legion, just ordinary Blue Moon armed guards and Blue Moon workers. To Xia Lei, the armed forces in this place are at the level of a boy scout. He thought. Whatever you do.
Instead of unloading the ore it carried to the ore area, the carrier drove to a workshop.
A Blue Moon artificial worker used a baton to direct the engineer robot to drive the vehicle into the workshop and then parked it in a fixed area.
This workshop is not a smelting workshop, but an experimental workshop.
When the loading truck drove in, several Blue Moon workers came over.
"I don't know if the black gold content in the ore mined in the new mining area is high. If it is high, we will move to the new mining area soon. This place has almost lost its mining value." A Blue Moon The man said.
"I don't want to stay in this ghost place for a day anymore. I want to go back to Blue Moon." A Blue Moon man said.
"Come on, Commander Mu Ma has taken a harvesting action against humans. The news on the military channel said that the Seventh Army captured the underground city in Area 37 and captured hundreds of thousands of people. This means that our king is about to be resurrected and humanity will perish. The day is getting closer." A Blue Moon man said, with a proud look on his face.
"Once our king is resurrected, it means that more moon core warriors will be born. We have to step up mining of black gold, otherwise they will have no weapons to use." An old Blue Moon man said.
On the loading truck, Xia Lei's heart moved, and he secretly said: "It turns out that the energy weapons used by the Moon Core Warriors that can receive the energy transmission of the Blue Moon Canopy are actually made of black gold mined from Ice Star? Black gold?"
He had never heard of "black gold", and the spy he left on the Blue Moon, Yue Slave 2, had never provided relevant intelligence. But this is not surprising at all. Moon Slave 2 is just a domestic slave robot with no authority at all. The core weapons of the Moon Core Corps are Blue Moon's top secrets. How can it be easily detected
He had never been able to figure out what happened to the energy weapons of the Moon Core Warriors, but he didn't expect to find the answer here.
"The value we have here is more than just black gold." A middle-aged Blue Moon man in military uniform came over, "Don't forget, the sub-composite black gold we produce here is an important material for the construction of Blue Moon. And our battleships and fighter men, they all need a lot of sub-composite black gold.”
"Hessian Army Commander." Several Blue Moon workers bowed their heads in greeting.
"Stop chatting and go to work. Now that you already know that our king is about to be resurrected, you know how much black gold we need this time. If you don't work hard now, you will regret it when you are held accountable." Said the middle-aged Blue Moon officer Zuo Heisen.
Several Blue Moon artificial workers took action. Some started the machine, while others directed the engineer robot sitting in the cab to unload the ore.
The carriage of the loading truck is propped up by an energy lifting device.
Xia Lei held Lan Jier in his arms and levitated when the carriage was propped up, looking down at the Blue Moon people in the experimental workshop.
"You guys hurry up, it's best to give me the results in five hours." Hessen left these words and walked through the passage.
Xia Lei hugged Lan Jier to the ground, and then followed Heisen into the passage.
At the end of the passage is a silver alloy door, with two fully armed combat robots standing at the door. Hessen walked to the silver alloy door and accepted the scan. The alloy door opened.
Xia Lei didn't wait for the alloy door to close, then pulled Lan Jier through.
Behind the alloy gate is the control center of the entire industrial base. A huge surveillance projection is suspended in the void of the control center. It is not only the internal image of the entire industrial base, but also the surveillance images of the surrounding areas. Xia Lei saw a patrol on a mountain next to the industrial base, two Blue Moon soldiers and eight combat robots.
There are more than a dozen Blue Moon people in the control center, some are officers in uniforms, and some are Blue Moon people in work clothes. They also control core equipment or integrated systems related to production.
An officer walked towards Hesse, with an excited smile on his face, "Hessian Army Commander, there is news from the search team we sent out."
"Huh? What's the news?"
"They said they might have found the tomb of Holy King Lan Ling."
Hessen was stunned for a moment, and then said excitedly: "Is this true? We have been looking for the tomb of Saint King Lanling for so many years, but without any success, and we found it this time?"
"It's not sure yet, but the search team said it's very likely this time. By the way, they also sent back a video. Commander, please take a look." The officer activated his communicator, and a small holographic projection suddenly appeared. In the void in front of him.
Xia Lei moved his gaze to the small holographic projection. He had already controlled his emotions, but when he saw it, he couldn't help but get excited.
It was a flat ice surface that stretched as far as the eye could see. It didn't look like a plain, but a frozen ocean. Because it is so flat, there are no raised peaks or rugged canyons. No matter how flat the plain is, it cannot be this level of flatness. There is only the frozen ocean.
Several Blue Moon people wearing cold-proof clothing stood on a piece of ice. Behind them was a large ice hole dug with construction machinery, and a pile of stone bricks placed next to the ice.
It was those stone bricks that made Xia Lei excited, because they were not ordinary rocks, but star stones glowing with blue energy!
No more evidence is needed. Just by looking at the pile of star stones and stone bricks, it can be determined that that place is the royal tomb of Saint King Lan Ling!
Lan Jill's hands trembled, and her ability to control emotions was obviously inferior to Xia Lei's.
Xia Lei felt her nervousness and excitement. He pulled her into his arms with a gentle pull, then leaned into her ear and whispered: "Don't be nervous, don't be excited, I'm right by your side." , I will take you to the royal tomb of Saint King Lanling."
His words made Lan Jill calm down a little. She also leaned into Xia Lei's ear and whispered, "Can I speak?"
Xia Lei smiled and said, "No problem, these guys are just ordinary Blue Moon people. I used energy to isolate the light and sound. They can't see or hear us. If you are nervous or excited, you can talk to me say."
"I have a hunch that that place is the royal tomb of Holy King Lan Ling." Lan Jier opened her chatterbox as expected, "I thought that the royal tomb of Holy King Lan Ling would be in the ruins of the imperial capital, but I didn't expect that it would be in the sea."
Xia Lei said: "Saint King Lan Ling is a wise man. How could he build his royal tomb in the ruins of the imperial capital? The place he chose must be a place that others would never think of and would be difficult to find. Who would have thought of him in the sea? Will his royal tomb be in the sea?"
"But the Blue Moon Man was still found."
"The guy from Hesse also said that they have been looking for it for many years. This planet is not big, and with the current technology and equipment of the Blue Moon people, it is not surprising that they can find it." Xia Lei said.
At this time, a member of the search team spoke, "Report to the commander of the Hessian Army, we found these stone bricks from the seabed. We initially judge that these stone bricks are secondary star stones. This kind of star stone is found among the Ahimis people." It plays a vital role in civilization, so we have reason to believe that the tomb of Saint King Lanling is at our feet."
"Hahaha!" Hessen laughed out loud with excitement, "Continue to detect, I need a definite result."
"Yes." The member of the search team said again: "Commander of the Hessian Army, do you want to report to Blue Moon?"
Hessen was silent for a moment and then said: "No, wait until there are definite results before reporting it. If it is false information, it will not be a good thing once it is reported. Believe me, if the tomb of Holy King Lan Ling is definitely found, everyone here will Be richly rewarded and honored.”
"Yes, we will give a definite result as soon as possible."
"I'll be here right away." Hessen said impatiently: "Prepare a spaceship for me immediately!"
Xia Lei's eyes followed the coordinates marked on the holographic projection.
The officer turned off his communicator and asked tentatively: "Commander of the Hessian Army, can I pass?"
"You are needed here to take charge. You can stay here and wait for my good news." Leaving these words behind, he walked towards another alloy door of the Hessian control center.
The officer who provided the intelligence had a sullen look on his face and did not dare to show off.
Xia Lei took Lan Gil'er's hand and followed him. When Heisen opened the door and walked out, he and Lan Gil'er also walked out.
Behind the alloy gate is a warehouse.
Xia Lei was also surprised when he saw the scene in the warehouse. There were at least tens of thousands of tons of so-called sub-composite black gold stacked in this warehouse.
In the center of the warehouse were several locked metal boxes. Xia Lei's eyes moved to the boxes, and his eyes jumped slightly and switched to perspective mode. However, his perspective vision was bounced away after penetrating the metal box.
His heart moved, and he suddenly understood what was in the box. It was for making energy weapons for the Moon Core Legion - black gold!
Hessen strode towards the end of the warehouse. A huge alloy gate had been opened in advance, and a small troop transport spacecraft slowly landed and rested on the lift platform.
Heisen sneered, "This time I can't even think about being underdeveloped. No one can take this huge credit from me!"
A sneer appeared on the corner of Xia Lei's mouth.
