Chapter 1932 - 1525: Search (Part 2)
Inside the Immortal Blade’s command room.
Tilo reported to Su Mo, "We were attacked by a Type III Pollution Alien Species, the Red Pigeon Beast, but it’s still within manageable limits and basically poses no threat. Give me some more time, and I can take care of it."
"Hmm, very good!"
Su Mo nodded in response.
"Boss, are our coordinates correct? This area looks very normal; it doesn’t seem like there could be a large base here."
Sun Duoxiang curiously observed the displayed images, rubbing his chin as he asked.
"Don’t worry, according to the data, I have already verified it. There are basically no issues. This is definitely the place we’re looking for. As for not seeing any traces, that’s normal. The Divine Race probably planned the camouflage when constructing the base. Once the Immortal Blade takes care of these bits and pieces, we’ll go down and explore."
Su Mo was quite confident about the information in the data.
"Got it!"
Sun Duoxiang felt it made a lot of sense after hearing Su Mo’s explanation.
Half an hour later, after the Legendary Level Star Destroyer, Immortal Blade, dealt with the Monsters, Su Mo and the others maneuvered their Mechas out of the landing outlet at high speed.
"Spread out and carefully search for the entrance. If you encounter very strong Monsters, don’t engage directly; return and ask for help immediately."
Su Mo efficiently issued the command.
"Understood!"
Qian Chengxue and the others spread out, piloting their Mechas.
Su Mo also piloted his Mecha down into the undulating mountains. The entire mountain range was barren, devoid of any sign of life. However, upon close examination, scattered Monsters could be seen hiding behind the rocks.
"Go a bit lower. Considering the Divine Race’s nature, they definitely made the entrance very well hidden."
The Creator, Swallower, reminded.
Su Mo then maneuvered his Mecha to fly a bit lower, entering the continuous mountain ranges.
At this moment, a Type IV Pollution Alien Species, Bai Ze, suddenly leaped from the undulating mountain wall, pouncing towards Su Mo.
Su Mo remained unperturbed and swung the Thunder God’s Spear in his hand in a sweeping motion!
Crack~
Immediately, the Bai Ze was cleaved in half with a whimper and fell to the bottom of the mountains.
Su Mo glanced with the corner of his eye and chatted with Xiao Shi.
"These pesky Monsters really are never-ending."
"Monsters on Ceres can’t be wiped out; just ignore them."
The Creator, Swallower, had long been accustomed to it.
More than an hour later, Su Mo was still searching, feeling a bit helpless. Even with designated coordinates, it was so difficult to find! Without a clue, it would be like finding a needle in a haystack.
At this moment, Kendi piloted the Divine’s Envoy Mecha over, and excitedly said to Su Mo.
"Boss, I found the entrance!"
"Take me to see it."
Su Mo’s eyes lit up, and he replied immediately.
Kendi quickly guided Su Mo to fly to the bottom of another section of the continuous mountain range.
Before long, Su Mo and Kendi landed on the ground, where Sun Duoxiang and the others had also gathered.
"Boss, you’re here. Look, this is the entrance. They’re really sneaky bastards. They built the gate to look exactly like the mountain rock; if you don’t look carefully, you wouldn’t notice it."
Sun Duoxiang pointed to the mountain in front.
Su Mo maneuvered his Mecha closer, reached out to touch it, and immediately confirmed that it was indeed the entrance to the hidden gate. Without any wasted words, he gave a direct order.
"Destroy it!"
"Got it!"
Sun Duoxiang and the others received the order and piloted their Mechas forward, smashing into it with great force.
Bang~
The entire mountain shook violently.
However, Sun Duoxiang and the others did not stop attacking but instead increased their strength. Before long, with a loud rumble, the hidden gate was penetrated, shattering into pieces.
This revealed a very spacious entrance to a passage.
"Go in!"
Su Mo led the way, piloting his Mecha inside.
The passage was very dark, but it didn’t affect Su Mo and the others at all.
"Wow, the construction quality of this base is really not bad. Boss, look, the walls are made of good materials. It’s such a waste for this base to be abandoned here. Just dismantling it would fetch a lot of money."
Sun Duoxiang almost drooled.
"Have some ambition, will you? Why would we dismantle this base? If you really want to mine, I have plenty of coordinates for you to dig to your heart’s content!"
Su Mo replied in a good mood. But he wasn’t making it up; in the Divine Race’s map data, besides marking the location of the base, it also indicated the coordinates of major mining areas exploited by the Divine Race.
Although those mining areas might have already been excavated by others, there could still be overlooked resources, and even those would be more than enough to mine.
So, he’s not lacking anything now; what he’s missing is just the time to digest all these things.
"No, no more mining. In the mining area of Zero Degree Land, we’re almost sick of it. In that scorpion’s lair, I dug out the valuable goods, leaving a lot of scraps, and I don’t even want to dig them up."
Sun Duoxiang shook his head as if it were a rattle drum, having mined to his limit.
"If you don’t want to mine, stop talking nonsense and hurry up to explore!"
Su Mo led everyone further inside.
As they walked along, Su Mo became more and more amazed. The entire base’s walls seemed to be made of special alloy, faintly imprinted with sacred abstract paintings.
Upon closer inspection, he couldn’t help but feel a strange sensation in his heart.
Walking all the way in, he saw some decayed skeletal remains, but no Monsters or signs of battle.
If he guessed correctly, this base should have never been overrun, likely self-sealed and executed, with a high probability of gaining significant benefits.
Soon, Su Mo and the others reached a fork, and everyone stopped.
In front of them appeared four passageways leading to different places, and as they contemplated which one to explore first.
The Creator, Swallower, spoke up, "Take the far right one; it leads to the hangar!"
Upon hearing this, Su Mo decisively led everyone down the far-right passage, which was quite deep.
However, Su Mo and the others moved quickly, and before long, they reached the end of the deep passage. Here was a huge entrance, and they stepped inside.
Immediately, their eyes opened wide to a vast hangar.
The hangar was neatly organized with docking stations, and many Divine Guard Series Mechas were parked there!
"Wow, these are really Divine Guard Series Mechas, we’ve struck it rich!"
Sun Duoxiang shouted excitedly with a bright smile on his face.
Seeing this scene, Su Mo felt a sense of relief, a good start indeed!
He said to the others, "Leave some to inventory the Mechas, the rest spread out and search thoroughly for any extra gains!"
"Understood!"
Kendi and the others did not hesitate to scatter.
Su Mo, however, stood at the same spot, observing the Mechas parked there, and said to the Creator, Swallower.
"The harvest is pretty good. I glanced around and saw two Fake VI Generation Pure Mechanical Mechas, Divine’s Envoy, and seven modified Divine Guards. There are quite a few Divine Guards too."
