Living on a deserted island, the cold female president regards me as king

"team leader?"

When I stopped, the long queue behind me also stopped.

After a long time, the team member closest to me finally couldn't help asking questions, and his questions also pulled me out of the long river of memories.

"Nothing, just move on..."

I pretended to be nonchalant, waved my hands indifferently, and then took the lead on the path leading to the bottom of the tiankeng.

In my mind, the scene after scene is still fresh in my memory.

I really can't believe that there is a big mountain where the tiankeng is located.

The mining speed of these people in the company is so fast, but they flattened the entire mountain and dug a deep hole. What is it because of what they found?
Thinking of this, my brothers had a lot of questions, and at the same time, there was an unbearable excitement.

If all goes well, I should be able to know the purpose of these people in the company soon.

It must be important for them to mobilize so many people and spend a lot of money to mine, right?
Moreover, Huo Hou might have been sent here, and if I'm lucky enough, I might meet him down here.

When I think about this, I feel a lot lighter.

But soon I found that everything I expected was too good, but the reality is often very cruel, and it easily shattered my fragile dream.

"Team, Captain!"

We quickly walked halfway through the distance, and when we were about to go down to the bottom, suddenly, we found a giant black scorpion standing on the path in front of us.

After its huge body occupies the entire path, there is still a part exposed.

If we want to pass here, we must first get rid of this guy.

"go to hell!"

However, after seeing the giant scorpion blocking the way, the team members who followed me became extremely emotional.

Like a conditioned reflex, he fired in an instant.

But what they didn't notice was that this was the surface area of ​​the giant scorpion, but it was already covered with many bullet holes, as if it had already been killed.

And their actions were really overreacting.

Several magazines were emptied in an instant, and after seeing that the giant scorpion didn't even move after the bullets hit it, these few people finally calmed down.

"Dead...dead?"

"It looks scary. There won't be more strange creatures like this underground, right?"

Several people looked at each other.

But I strode forward and pushed the scorpion's body down.

In order to ensure the smooth progress of mining, a team of nearly a thousand people was dispatched, which is enough to show the degree of danger of this mission.

Moreover, this small island seems to be the lair of plot scorpions, and I am afraid we will encounter more such strange things in the future.

"continue."

I glanced at those people coldly, which calmed them down.

When we reached the bottom of the sinkhole, the first thing we saw was a smashed scorpion carcass, with sticky flesh sticking to the ground, and everyone avoided it.

There are traces of vehicles running over at the bottom here, and the road surface is relatively flat.

Following the landmark display on the communicator, we soon arrived at the mining site, which is estimated to be nearly 100 meters above the ground of the island.

How deep are they going to dig?
With question marks in my mind, I walked into this area that is being mined.

The roar of machinery is everywhere, and the noisy people are a little distracted. This is how I understand why the mining progress of these people in the company is so fast.

In addition to the assistance of explosives, they actually brought heavy mining tools here.

It's no wonder that a mountain can be leveled in such a short period of time, and such a large song can be dug out.

Soon I saw the person in charge here, a man wearing a hard hat with a birthmark the size of a thumb on his right cheek.

"Your task is to protect those machines!"

Because the surrounding machinery was very noisy, he spoke very loudly, almost roaring.

Following the direction he pointed, I saw that there are several drilling machines in the very center of the tiankeng.

There are some lighthouses built around, illuminating the surrounding tens of meters.

"What the hell are you digging for?"

I pretended to ask subconsciously.

But what I didn't expect was that the person in charge was very vigilant. He frowned, glared at me, and said coldly.

"This is not something you should care about. Do your job well."

After finishing speaking, he raised the brim of his hat, then turned and walked away.

Although this guy didn't tell me what the threat was, it must have something to do with the shoes living on this small island.

Then, I ordered to come with me, and the more than 1000 people here scattered to form a tight line of defense.

As long as there is any trouble, we can fire the fire of the engine gun in the first time.

Then, I walked around the mining area at will.

This is probably also one of my privileges as the captain of the previous team. Sure enough, it is much more convenient to do things in a high position.

After walking a few laps, I found that the situation here was worse than I imagined.

The number of armed personnel is pitifully small, and most of the remaining ones have become disabled, and those who perform mining tasks are not much better.

However, I did not see the figure of the fire monkey.

"What the hell happened here?"

I found nothing, which made me want to know the current situation of the fire monkey even more urgently. I had no choice but to pin my hope of finding information about the fire monkey on these disabled people.

And the wounded man in front of me is considered to be in good physical condition among the staff here.

He told me that every once in a while, there will be a large number of plot scorpions here.

Originally, there were [-] armed personnel staying here to protect the mining mission, but now, most of the dead and wounded were dragged away by those giant scorpions.

As for the rest, there are only less than 100 people in their area.

If we come later, they will definitely not have the energy to deal with the next scorpion attack, and they will definitely die.

Speaking of this, the man looked at me with gratitude.

"Don't underestimate those scorpions. Their shells are very thick, and if they don't hit their vital parts, they won't be able to kill them in a short time."

"How often do they attack?"

"One day! At this time yesterday, there were more scorpions than ever! Many of us died at that time!"
