my son billions

Seeing Xiao Qi dying and being submerged in the devouring worm, Xu Chu was shocked and terrified at that moment.

Then, regardless of everyone's obstruction, he grabbed No. 3 and jumped off the feeder. Number 3 quickly changed back to its original shape in the air, and Xu Chu grew countless tentacles to fix himself on the back of Number 3, and was the first to rush to Number 7.

At that moment, Xu Chu even forgot the horror of the devouring worms, and countless tentacles intertwined and tightened in an instant, whipping fiercely towards the devouring worms crawling on No. [-]'s body and gnawing greedily.

And the lower body of No. 3 under him has already completely melted, and the bright silver streamer-like liquid slowly melted into the darkness, enveloping all the devouring worms covering No. 7's body in an instant.

Then, No. 3 sighed contentedly.

He stretched around uncontrollably, food, food - it's all food - and all the brothers around him were reveling.

When Xu Chu came to No. [-], he found that he was gnawed and bruised, dripping with blood, and half of his wings had been eaten.He touched these wounds painstakingly, and then ruthlessly tore off one of his tentacles. The transparent mucus that flowed from the wound quickly adhered to No. [-]'s wound consciously.

Behind him, a colorful glow filled the sky, and those overwhelming blacks disappeared before people's eyes in an instant.

As for the people in the shuttle boats and transport ships circling above—even the starships still on the equator, O'Neill watched helplessly that in just a few minutes, the dark scene that had almost covered the entire planet was about to begin. Covered by those rays at a speed visible to the naked eye.

O'Neill watched the scene in front of him, and gradually realized what kind of power his transport ship had brought to Mormo.

And what kind of fate will such power bring to Moore?

In fact, it is certainly impossible for the Alliance to abandon such a planet.The Alliance Army, which was unwilling to surrender even in the face of Salimon, was even less likely to retreat in the face of such a plague of insects.

When the intelligence was first received, the Union Army was dispatched quickly.It's just that the worm swarm broke out too quickly. When they arrived at Mormo at the fastest speed, most of the devouring worms had already entered Xu Chu's hands.

The alliance army didn't have a good way to deal with the giant devouring worms, and those small devouring worms were erratic and difficult to clean up.After spending a lot of effort to clean up the remaining devouring worms, the governor of Moremo's planet had to isolate the entire Moremo under the advice of the think tank.

Once a trace of d732 is found in a certain area, all passages leading to this area must be closed.until the area is completely cleaned up.It is not known how the Planetary Guard will clean up after the Alliance Army leaves.

Xu Chu's little bugs hid before the arrival of a large number of troops.But the people who had seen this wonderful scene that day, when they were questioned later, they all stumbled with psychedelic expressions on their faces.Although the caliber is the same, it is completely unbelievable.

The big flying birds make sense, and then there are huge monsters and big fishes floating in the sky with colorful lights—this may come from their impression of Kemeiqi, but Kemeiqi never Enter the atmosphere - and various other unknown creatures.

In their description, it seems to include all the powerful creatures they have ever seen.

A group of creatures with unknown races descended from the sky and wiped out all the d732s. The original words were—they emitted golden or silver or colored rays of light from their bodies, and wherever the rays of light touched, all the blackness melted away.

"This fucking sounds like the holy light of religion," said Rupert, the governor of Mormo's planet, with a horrific face. "I'm afraid these people are frightened and stupid. What they said doesn't match the beginning and the end of the sentence, and there is no logic at all."

However, the young Clive, the head of the think tank beside him, frowned slightly, "But it can be proved that before the arrival of the Alliance Army, there must have been another force that arrived in Moormo and cleaned up most of the d732 It's clean. It's just that their image varies."

Rupert snorted again when he heard the words, "I don't care who cleaned it up. The problem now is that Mooremo has been ruined to such a mess. Whether those original mining groups will come back is a problem. If it is because This swarm of insects scares away these mining companies, and our losses will be heavy."

Clive bowed his head and pondered for a moment, but said, "The biggest losses this time should be those mining companies in the exposed Cable mining area. Their excavation machines are all placed on the surface. I have sent someone to look at them. Those hungry d732 , Even those excavating machines were not spared, of course, their giant machines on the surface, including metal brackets, were all seriously lost."

"In my estimation, based on the current stock of exposed Cable ore, these companies may not necessarily come back again. The value of the existing Cable ore in those mining areas may not be enough for them to rebuild a complete mining area, so Credits to spend."

"And the most terrible thing is that although the bug swarm this time can be classified as force majeure, we all know the reason. These companies are likely to take us to court for this and ask us to return the remaining mine lease. rent for the useful life, and claims to compensate them for other losses."

Rupert frowned more and more as he listened, "What should we do then? That's a lot of money! Besides, it's all caused by their own failure to dispose of their own waste, so what does it have to do with us?"

But even though Rupert said so, he still felt a little guilty in his heart.

Clive knew him very well, so he didn't follow his words, and just continued, "The only way now is to rent out those worthless mining areas as soon as possible, and then use this money to fill the holes that will appear. .”

Only they and the current users of the mining area know the situation of the mining area. They can pack it up and find customers again at a price that makes everyone happy.

As for the next one to be taken advantage of, he can only blame himself for being blind.

Most areas of Moremo suffered serious losses, but the shanty town where Fandral's family is located seems to have not been affected too much.

It's just that there are a lot fewer people here than before, and everyone who remains looks a little frightened, even a little restless.

Xu Chu didn't know how these people escaped the catastrophe at the beginning, but human beings are one of the most tenacious creatures in the world, and their desire to survive can often allow them to escape many unimaginable difficulties.

Just don't know if they can survive the next predicament.

In the previous battle, Xiao Qi didn't actually suffer much injuries, but his appearance was rather tragic.After he woke up, he saw that everyone had arrived, and he couldn't stop being happy, running around with Xiaolu in his mouth, which annoyed Xu Chu so much that his head got dizzy.

Seeing that he was fine, Xu Chu quickly handed No. [-] to San Hao, and asked them to take the others to the place they had prepared before.

"Don't finish eating the worms. We'll keep them and sell them to make money to send things to other people in Kuipengla." Xu Chu urged the two little ones out, "Take care of them." The little brothers below you, don't let them cause trouble. Kaqimo first raise them, don't play with them if you have nothing to do."

Number Seven listened, and nodded fiercely with Little Green in his mouth.Seeing that attentive and excited look, Xu Chu couldn't help but burst out laughing at last.In the end, he stretched out his hand to pick up No. [-], touched a few more, and then patted his little butt to drive them away.

Xu Chu then turned around and participated in the reconstruction of the shanty town.

Even though the losses were not large, most of the houses here were half-collapsed due to structural problems, especially the two-story building of Fandral's house.Xu Chu asked the little bugs to pull out a lot of waste materials from the garbage dump, picked some out, and rebuilt the small building.

However, half of the house was rebuilt, and a bad news came again.

——The Edra Mining Company that was originally stationed here will be withdrawn, and the employment contracts of all employees will be cancelled.

Due to the heavy losses of the company due to the pest disaster, the branch in Moremo declared bankruptcy, and there was no compensation for the employees within the contract period.

When Fitch came looking for Xu Chu with a dejected face, Xu Chu was accompanying Fandral to comfort the sad-looking old Maggie, Lisa and the others.

"What should we do? If the Edra Mining Company withdraws, we will not only have no income, but we will not even be able to buy those cheap nutrient solutions. If we go to the cities to buy them, the price of nutrient solutions there will almost double. How can I afford it?" Lisa said distressedly while cooking the meat.

Smelling the aroma of the broth wafting from the house, Kenda who came to talk to old McGee couldn't help swallowing, "And not only Edra, but Frankie next door to me has already gone outside to find some Circled, many mining companies around will not come back, I am afraid we will not be able to find jobs.”

Hearing this, several people couldn't help sighing again.

"Knock down!"

"Excuse me, is this the Fandral family? We are here to find Mr. Xu."

Xu Chu nodded to everyone in the room when he heard the sound, and when he went out, he saw Fitch and Leonard who were looking for him.

In fact, he is very reluctant to see these two people now.

When he saw Moore's tragic situation, he knew very well in his heart that these two people might not be the only culprit of everything, but they must be one of the biggest driving forces.In this disaster, Moremo suffered huge economic losses, and countless people died.

But the two men were unharmed, and the family members evacuated safely.

"Mr. Xu, Adera Mining Company is going to withdraw the Mormo branch," Fitch said with some distress, "so we can't fulfill our original agreement on waste disposal rights and land lease issues."

"And Fitch will be sent to Darvo Star to be in charge of the logistics department. That's a lucrative position. Mr. Xu, you must think of a way for us!" Leonard also said beside him.

Fitch and Leonard originally didn't think that Xu Chu had the power to help them.But when they saw those Quicks who fell from the sky and wiped out the d732, they couldn't help but feel a blind admiration for Xu Chu, and they always felt that the other party should have a way to solve their current predicament for them.

Xu Chu was also extremely surprised by the thick skins of these two people.

Not only did they feel guilty for not dealing with the previous pest plague, they even only cared about their own future and came to him for help.

Xu Chu was completely indifferent to the current plight of the two of them.

He had already exchanged some equipment from O'Neill, and let Lilith and the others take them to the depths of the wasteland.It was originally an abandoned area, and few people would enter it.And the feeding of kazimo is also very familiar to small insects.

Therefore, the issue of the lease agreement in this area is only to obtain a legal name.Even if other companies rent out this area, there is probably nothing they can do about this wasteland.

As for Aedra's waste disposal rights, since the company has withdrawn, these two people are useless.That being the case——

"But the governor of the planet wants to re-lease this area," Fitch continued, "the price they gave is very good, but in fact, the ore storage in the Edra mining area has not reached the amount they said. It's just now They gave a 'very favorable' price, so now there are another group of mining companies planning to settle in. However, I guess there are not many companies that can be successfully deceived by them, and we can take advantage of this opportunity to rent Get a piece of land, and then start a mining company.”

"Judging from the current loss situation of Aedra, it is not without profit points. It's just that for Aedra's head office, they don't pay attention to such a profit point, and they don't want to spend energy on it. But If we reduce the scale, the profit points will be enough for us to lie comfortably in Moore for a lifetime."

Xu Chu is not interested in this at all. His only concern is that if those mining companies withdraw, the production of waste will be greatly reduced.So when the time comes, what can he bring back to Kuipenla?

Leonard also added on the side, "And most of the broken machines can be repaired-I mean repaired casually-and we can also replace them with those abandoned mining robots. Those abandoned robots are just efficiency It’s a little lower, and the error rate is a little higher, but this part of the error rate can be completely replaced by labor. Now labor is cheaper than machinery, and one person only needs 50 credits a day.”

"And the waste produced was originally a big problem in the cost of our mining company, but now—I mean if you have a way to deal with the waste of mineral materials, then our profit will be much higher, You don’t need to worry about profit at all!”

The words labor and waste caused Xu Chu, who was already thinking about the fate of these two people, to raise his eyebrows.

After going through all the things again in his mind, Xu Chu suddenly discovered that the two people's ideas were not without merit.

But he doesn't have enough credit points to rent out this mining area, and his current priority is not these things.

The most important thing is that no matter what plans he has in the future, these two people are no longer needed.

Their information today is their last value.

"I see. You guys go back today. I've thought about it and someone will notify you." After Xu Chu finished speaking, he sent the two of them away with a smile.

Then he turned around, but heard a voice in his ear saying, "This is very interesting, the ore storage in the mining area is not large, the mining company will withdraw, and if no new owner is found, what do you think will happen to these mining areas in the future?" status?"

Xu Chuwen thought for a while, then frowned and said, "After the miners are unemployed and have no income, they may enter the city due to the pressure of survival, but this will not necessarily increase the employment rate, so the increase in the crime rate is inevitable. And at the edge of the mining area , there are bound to be many problems arising out of poverty.”

"You have overlooked a problem. There are actually no ores in those abandoned mining areas. And as far as I know, it is not difficult to mine the exposed Cable ore itself. It is just that the loss of large mining machines will reduce the mining efficiency. Much lower. But just with those skilled miners, the daily mining volume is quite impressive.”

As he said that, a mechanical spider suddenly got out of Xu Chu's pocket, and then slowly crawled onto his shoulder.A humanoid head the size of a ping-pong ball was carried on the spider's back. At first glance, it looked like a disgusting monster from a horror movie, which made people feel uncomfortable all over.

But Xu Chu has completely adapted to the strange image of the other party, without even looking at him, he said, "Are you planning on those ores?"

"Aren't you wondering how to get 'Quaker' meat into the market?"

"Since we don't have the money to rent the mining area, we must not allow others to occupy it. The miners have no income and can't find a job, so they will definitely attack those unowned mining areas."

"Then, the unowned mining area is all ours—"
