The black is as lustrous as amber. When you hold it in your hand and squeeze it hard, you can clearly feel that this bright black jewel can be slowly squeezed.Although it is still relatively hard, it is no longer as hard as C-grade ore, and it does not have such a crisp sound when struck.

The two boys held tools in their hands, and used a pick-like tool to dig out these black jewels from the wall bit by bit, and put them into the metal backpack behind them.

The number of B-level energy stones that Lan Ze and his two dug from here is not much. After all, this thing needs to be processed manually, and they are always worried about whether something will break into the cave, although the air of Sandstorm Star contains enough The oxygen that humans breathe normally is not safe here after all, not to mention that the B-level energy stone they dug out now cannot be brought back to the base, otherwise once the old man finds out and knows it, not to mention people from other forces, Even Lou Ke and the others will find a way to secretly follow the two of them to snatch the mine.

The two little people finally spent more than half a day mining two small boxes of B-grade energy stones, returned to their racks and walked slowly and carefully towards the entrance of the cave step by step.

This time when they got out of the cave, they did not go back to the entrance by the steel cableway as they did when they came here, but climbed obliquely downwards for a certain distance by rock climbing. The two mechanical arms were hung in their original positions, and the whole body was half-hanging on the cliff, shaking, shaking, shaking a few times in the dark direction, suddenly!The two mechanical arms climbing on the cliff bend up and pop out in that direction!

"Slap"! There was a bang, and they actually operated the mechs to jump onto the rock wall in the other direction in the darkness!

Cang Qing was about to operate the mech to climb in a certain direction. Suddenly, Lan Ze, who was sitting in the back row, felt his scalp go numb, and a feeling of horror penetrated into his brain, and his eyes instantly turned dark: "Fifteen degrees to the left!"

Cang Qing's hand pushing the joystick immediately pressed a green button on the front panel, and a layer of light golden luster instantly appeared at about fifteen degrees to the upper left of the mech——a series of sounds of "Zi la la" came, The sharp teeth-like sound made the two people in the cabin twitch their eyebrows.

"25 degrees to the lower left, [-] degrees to the front!" Lan Ze's clear voice sounded again in the cabin, and as soon as he finished his words, a faint golden light appeared immediately at his position, blocking the unknown in the darkness. Lightning attack of the stuff!

Immediately, while blocking that thing this time, the two mechanical arms that had been hiding in the front cabin popped out!One of them is in the shape of a mechanical hand, and the other hand is holding something like a handle. While the mechanical arm is grabbing something attacking their mecha, the other handle that is attached to the thing suddenly pops out a deep hole. Red laser blade!

There was a sound of "chacha" and "puchi", and the thing caught by Cang Qing let out a scream, and the whole body bounced up in the darkness. Cang Qing, who reacted quickly, immediately raised a mechanical arm to block the thing from bouncing. At the same time, the mechanical arm also exudes a faint golden protective luster.

But at the same time, that thing also broke free from the restraint imposed by the mecha, and fell towards the endless abyss...

Lan Ze breathed a long sigh of relief, wiped off the cold sweat from his forehead and began to complain: "It's really annoying, these things can't see where they came from, but even if we can beat them, they are all so fast I ran away, trying to catch one to study whether it can be eaten or not..."

Cang Qing withdrew the two mechanical arms sticking out in front of him, and manipulated the remaining four "legs" to crawl slowly in the direction they expected, making a sound of "um" and "uh" from time to time when Lan Ze complained , expressing that he has listened carefully.

Mechs can use light armor for protection, but every time the light armor is activated, it needs to consume a lot of energy. The larger the range of the light armor, the more energy it consumes. Although they are now in the sandstorm star rich in energy stones However, the available energy is limited.

The energy burned in the mechs used by Lanze and the others are all extracted from energy stones below C-level. Although they can directly use B-level energy stones, once high-level energy stones are used in the mecha, it is very likely Back to the base and was detected by the old man.They don't even dare to bring back the B-level energy stone, so how dare they find out that the two of them used this high-level energy stone in the mecha?

Therefore, the two of them must consider every bit of energy consumption and use, and dare not have the slightest loss or neglect.

------------

In the depths of another tunnel not far from where Lan Ze and Cang Qing were, a group of teenagers operating various mechs were also busy.

The C-level and D-level energy stones that need to be dug back have been roughly dug up, and now a group of children climbed out of the mechs, bending over and busy in one place.

"B-grade, this texture, this luster..." A young man with pointed ears, a pair of big moist eyes, and facial features slightly different from that of humans raised a B-grade energy stone that he had just collected, facing the back The light shining over carefully discerns its transparency.

Not far away, Lou Ke gave the man a sideways glance, and snorted softly, "When the next big storm comes, we'll be able to use this thing."

A young man beside him asked nervously, "Boss, when we wait for the next big storm, are we really going to... kill that old guy?"

Lou Ke snorted coldly, with a gloomy and cold expression on his face: "If you don't kill him, you will be willing to be their dogs for the rest of your life?! How much food can a C-level energy stone be exchanged for in the black market? How much water? See See how much food and drink we can get every day! He is domineering over our heads, and almost filled his house with the energy stones we dug back!"

Speaking of the good things in the old man's room, the other teenagers also showed serious envy, but they were still a little uneasy: "Boss, tell me, even if we kill him... can we get the key?" The talking teenager said On the one hand, he tugged the metal collar hanging around his neck with some anxiety. The flashing red light spot on it was like the scythe of death, which made all the teenagers tense when they saw it.

Lou Ke pursed his lips tightly, and did not answer his question. Instead, a very strange "person" standing beside Lou Ke suddenly stretched out a "hand" like a tentacle to touch Lou Ke's fluffy hair. Fluffy hair like a fried lion cub: "You have to try if you can get it, are you willing to live like this for the rest of your life? Mining for them now, and after a few years, they will be transferred to other planets to fight monsters for them ?”

Hearing that all the teenagers present here were silent.They are not stupid. They knew what kind of life they would face in the future after they came to this planet a few years ago.

Although they haven't seen what the creatures on other planets look like, even if they only see the creatures on this planet, they can guess what they will face in the future.

In the earliest days, there were actually 30 children of similar age who were assigned here and belonged to the old man.But until now, there are only fourteen of them left.

The sixteen teenagers who disappeared, some died at the hands of the native creatures they met suddenly, and some were "exploded" by the old man who controlled their life and death because they were disobedient.Those bloody scenes, those fears between life and death, even these children who have been genetically modified before birth and have some missing aspects feel shuddering.

Fortunately, although they have been modified with various genes related to combat, those people have not removed their feelings, the feeling of fear, the obsession with survival, and the emotions that these intelligent creatures should have. .

It is said that this is because countless experiments have been done on genetically modified people in the past. Those people whose five senses have been blocked can hardly even reach adulthood, because they don’t know pain, so even if they are injured or bleed, maybe When all the blood is gone, you may not know the pain and deal with the wound.

It is really uneconomical for those people to spend such a large cost to transform the slaves to die in such a trivial matter. They are all businessmen, who would do such a loss-making business?That's why they kept these feelings for the new genetically modified people later, and changed them to control these genetically modified people with this kind of collar that could blow their heads off at any time.

I have to say, this is really a practical and affordable way.

Seeing that everyone was silent and contemplating, Lou Ke sneered again, and raised his chin: "In short, we will act when the next big storm comes, and anyone who has any objections can raise it now! Otherwise, when the time comes...heh."

His voice was very cold, he wanted to live, he wanted to live a good life, and he didn't have to be ordered around like a dog by that old trash all day long as a slave.With their strength, every young man present can easily kill that old guy, but look, they are like a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered, but that old man is a butcher with a butcher knife in his hand!He will never be willing to live like this!Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, it will definitely not!

"Boss, what about... Cang Qing and that brat?" A boy in the corner suddenly raised his hand and asked.

Lou Ke kept his face sullen, and pressed his hands on a B-grade energy stone for a long time without making a sound. Just when everyone thought he would not answer, he heard him coldly say: "If they are sensible, let them live. If they are not ...then let them go with the old man."

The other teenagers nodded one after another. In fact, they didn't hate those two people that much. It's just that children's world is like this. Those who are excluded together are their enemies, although no one can tell how the enmity between them was formed in the first place.

The object next to Lou Ke with a bunch of tentacles put his tentacles on his shoulder again, and comforted him, "They won't do anything bad."

Lou Ke shrugged his shoulders with a disgusted look on his face: "Who knows? Maybe that kid is eager to praise the old man's stinky feet!"

Lan Ze, who was climbing with Cang Qing, sneezed and rubbed his nose inexplicably: "Are you going to catch a cold?"
