My different world is game mode.

"Uranium mine..."

Lindsay hesitated at the entrance of the mine for a while before stepping in.

The protective equipment he has is already quite good. Combined with the recovery and enhancement of his own life essence, theoretically he can naturally withstand the damage caused by the mineral radiation.

But in my previous life, I had an understanding of the word "nuclear" and what it meant.

The impact on Lindsay was still too great.

So much so that he felt a little nervous before actually stepping into this strange mine.

pat-

Deep in the mine, there seemed to be a sound of dripping water.

Lindsay turned on the lighting function of the [Multi-Function Survival Equipment], and layers of sedimentary rocks immediately came into view.

"what?"

Lindsay raised an eyebrow.

In his impression, sedimentary rocks usually appear at depths of tens to hundreds of meters. It is quite rare to see it not long after entering the mine.

“Sedimentary rocks… That’s right!”

"This canyon is about 1300 meters deep and was violently torn from the surface by humans. It is actually very reasonable to see sedimentary rocks here."

"But this world has only been around for three or four hundred years at most."

"Ancient rocks..."

While struggling, Lindsay moved deeper into the mine.

His final decision was to use his limited knowledge of natural science to challenge the common sense of the universe that could grow naturally in the world.

After all, there are awakened ones.

No matter how messy things appear, you should look at them with the eyes of an adventurer.

pat- pat-

Lindsay continued to move forward with steady steps.

This mine is actually a naturally formed underground cave, but the canyon is exposed on the ground. Its internal structure is crooked and occasionally there are underground rivers with deposited water.

Lindsay wanted to explore on her own, but it took some effort to open the map.

But fortunately he was not the first visitor.

The footprints left by the explorers, illuminated by reconnaissance skills, showed up as distinct white lights in the shape of footprints.

Lindsay followed these footprints and basically wouldn't go wrong.

"Expeditor."

"When exploring a strange world and encountering such a bizarre place, take the initiative to enter and explore for those who come after you. If it is really dangerous, carve a stone tablet at the entrance to warn people."

"But the whole work doesn't get any material compensation."

“It all depends on their inner awareness.”

Thinking of Andafield, Sonya and the other two, as well as the other expedition members who were traveling through mountains and rivers behind them, Lindsay couldn't help but feel emotional.

However, after thinking about this cave that took the lives of the explorers.

Lindsay's previous doubts resurfaced in his mind:

"Radiation is indeed fatal to the human body, there is no doubt about that. But the effects of natural ores like uranium ore are definitely not enough to take the life of an awakened person in a short period of time!"

Lindsay frowned.

He opened the map, and apart from the radiation pattern marked on the entire mine, the [Professional Prospector's Pointer] did not point out any specific digging points for him.

This shows that uranium mines are produced at a very deep depth.

So while continuing to move forward, Lindsay used his skills to combine the tracks left by the explorers on the ground.

"This mine is deep and big. Do you think there will be monsters or treasures in it?"

"I hope it's the latter."

“It’s not bad to have nothing.”

"This canyon is also very strange. It's rare to see such exaggerated natural terrain."

"what--"

"Damn it, my body still hurts!"

"The source material can only slow down its speed, Ailande, you must leave this mine."

"Andafell, go!"

"I have sealed the sample of this ore in a seal box. Take it with you when you go out!"

"I'll go back again, maybe I can rescue Soso."

"Don't go back!"

"Sonia, the expeditioners' mission is still ahead!"

"I'm going back now. It might take me some time. You guys... just keep going..."

Scenes of life and death played out before Lindsay's eyes.

When the crisis came, some of the expedition members spoke in panic, some were resolute, and some made decisive judgments.

But no matter what, no one sits there and waits to die.

None of the expedition members were overwhelmed by fear and fell to the ground without taking any action.

They are all fighting for their own destiny with their own will.

"..."

Lindsay paid tribute to this,

He wanted to try to capture this scene with a camera for reference.

Whether you keep it for yourself in the future or treat it as a historical relic after returning to the normal timeline, it is a good choice.

"The expeditioners themselves were willing to make the sacrifice."

"As a witness, I also want to record this scene and show it to the world."

click-

Lindsay took out her camera and pressed the shutter.

As a result, the explorers' figures were not captured in the picture, but instead the scene underground was dotted with white snowflakes.

"Is there something wrong with the camera?"

Lindsay has taken many precious pictures during her adventures, but this is the first time she has encountered such noise interference.

"Wait, this is radiation interference!"

Lindsay suddenly realized the problem.

He had actually already stepped into the radiation zone, but because of the protection of the [Multi-function Survival Equipment], his body had not yet felt anything. Then he opened the map and took a look -

“There are still no mining sites nearby.”

"What kind of radiation can penetrate tens or hundreds of meters of soil and rock and affect me? Are you kidding me?"

If Lindsay remembered correctly.

The radiation in uranium ore mainly consists of alpha particles (helium nuclei), beta particles (electrons or positrons) and gamma rays.

The alpha and beta particles find it difficult to penetrate several meters of soil.

Although gamma rays have strong penetrating power, they will be greatly weakened in the soil layer of several meters.

So in reality, unless you are close to unprocessed ore, the radiation dose you receive is very low.

"..."

Lindsay frowned and followed the explorers' footsteps deeper into the mine.

He used normal scientific thinking to deal with the situation in front of him, and he was puzzled. But after using the common sense of the awakened people in this universe to deal with and analyze the situation, his expression changed rapidly.

"ah?!?"

Confused - a flash of inspiration - relief - excitement.

Many expressions appeared on Lindsay's face one after another.

Finally, he couldn't help but quicken his pace and began to mutter to himself.

……

…………

In the underground tunnel, there was no one except Lindsay.

A long echo resounded in the cave, as if the earth itself was humming softly.

Although the tone sounded vague, the excitement was hard to conceal:

"Uranium mine~~Not just uranium mine——"

"There are also uranium mines affected by the source material here. The radiation is affected by the source material, or it is directly integrated into the source material, so it shows such an exaggerated radiation ability~~"
