Gate of Apocalypse

Chapter 371 [Regret?

Chen Xiaocai was kind of blind.

We searched back and forth on this hillside for more than an hour, looking at the passage of time.

Chen Xiaocai is about to give up.

The system prompt clearly states that it must arrive in the mining area within 24 hours and occupy the mining centre.

Today, after spending nearly twenty hours on the road, searching around here for so long, the gates of the facial mining area are nowhere to be seen.

The countdown of 24 hours is getting smaller and smaller. Once the time has come and you have not found the mining area, then the task is considered a failure.

Did it just fail, and the next copy had to go into a punitive copy - that's fucking unjust.

This goddamn mission is too vague, isn't it?

It's totally out of line.

Join a copy on a weekday, do tasks in a copy, the task content is very detailed, there will never be such a thing as getting to a place but not finding a site.

What does it feel like?

It feels like the mission itself has a strong mountain flavour.

With the last two hours left in sight, Chen Xiaoliang became angry.

He took out an engineer shovel directly from the storage watch and started digging on the hillside!

Lin Leyan and others beside him looked at it and didn't understand what was wrong with Chen Xiaocai all of a sudden. Shovel the engineers on the hillside with it?!

Looking at Chen Xiaolian's face full of anger, digging dirt, and reading words in his mouth, Lin Leyan saw that his emotions were a little wrong, and he was not up to say anything. He had to stand aside. It was so easy to wait for Chen Xiaolian to dig for half an hour. He was strong and patient, and soon he dug out a pit. Lin Leyan walked up while Chen Xiaolian stopped to rest. He whispered: “What are you doing? What's so hard about it? Maybe... can we help you out? ”

Chen Xiaocai sighed, glanced at this Lin chick and suddenly laughed.

“I was a little confused, too. It's okay.” Chen Xiaoliang shook his head and shoveled the engineers in his hand onto Wang Di: “Forget it, it's my bad luck. Alas, it's all greed and curiosity. ”

The mind had given up and was about to lift its legs and suddenly heard a hint coming from the system.

[System note: C11 ore found, C11 vein found.

Hmm?

Chen Xiaoliang stunned.

This... this is okay?!

……

He bent over and pulled in the pit he dug himself out for a while, and Chen Xiaolei pulled out a crystalline stone with a big fist.

This thing looks flat, dusty and autumnal in color, not much different from ordinary stones at first glance, but it is dotted with a circle of crystals of star dots, like quartz, if you look closely, you will find the spots of this star dot, like stars on the night sky, with a hidden gleam.

I don't know what this thing is, but when I hold it in my hand, it always feels like something else.

Chen Xiaoliang pinched the stone and was satisfied to receive another system prompt.

[System Tip: Pick up one C11 ore, 569 g, content unknown, Grade: Medium.

[System Notification: Please go to the Ore Recycling bin for processing and the trash bin coordinates are prompted on the personal radar.

Ore recycling station?

Chen Xiaolian's heart moved!

Finally found the way!

On the personal radar, a green highlight emerged, less than 200 meters to the left of Chen Xiaoxiao.

He looked in that direction, stunned.

The place where Una had the glass house was originally an empty hillside. At this moment, a rock that had been exposed on the ground suddenly peeled off as many surfaces as possible.

After the rock peeled off, a prismatic, transparent thing emerged, like a glass box.

Chen Xiaolei laughed and ran over.

On this transparent glass box, with green light flowing, Chen Xiaoliang remembered the role of metal balls in his base and pressed his hands against the green light of the glass box.

Soon, the glass box was differentiated.

Beneath the box, the rocks on the ground began to shake, separating from left and right, creating a mine hole that could only accommodate two people walking side by side...!

Chen Xiaoliang laughed!

……

Though this task may feel like a pit father, when he finds it, Chen Xiaoliang naturally won't have to look back.

He took out a tactical flashlight and Chen Xiaolian entered the mine with Lin Leyan and others.

Especially Una, her eyes widened, closely followed Chen Xiaolian's side, her eyes carefully looked around the mine cave.

In fact, nothing can be seen in the darkness, but for Una, this mine has always existed only on paper. I have never seen it myself. This time I finally got into it, how can I not see enough reason?

The mine is deep, but when you can walk in, you don't feel bored. Instead, there is a cold, damp air flowing out.

The further forward, the brighter, on both sides of the mine cave, a metal frame beam appeared, obviously a manually built mining device, on both sides of the mountain wall, the star point, are all kind of star-like ore, glowing in the dark.

Chen Xiaolian simply put away the tactical flashlight.

The mine walked in about 100 metres and two tracks appeared on the ground.

Several carts are on the railroad tracks and look new, with no rust marks.

Chen Xiaocai looked around and there were no other entrances and exits. He simply jumped onto a bucket car with forward pedal devices and brakes. The bucket car was very spacious and accommodated several people.

Chen Xiaoliang greeted everyone in the car. He rode in this fighting car, followed the track and went deep into the mine.

Once the bucket car drove up, he faced the breathing wind. Chen Xiaoliang took a few deep breaths. He felt that the oxygen content in the air was normal. He implicitly wondered: Are you afraid of other ventilated mouths in the basement?

The orbit twists and turns, and the deeper and longer it travels underground, but the further down, the wider the terrain around it becomes.

There is a little light in the current direction, the mine cave reaches the end, it suddenly opens up in front of the track, everyone looks at it, it's amazing!

This is an underground cave!

The size of the same gymnasium is more than ten meters high, and the surrounding mountain walls, the stars are lit with ore, and there are various metal scaffolds around.

The track was just here, but it was divided into several pieces, and there were seven or eight bicycles parked next to it.

Several tracks spread out, and under this cave, there are five or six different mines, all of which are laid with rail tracks, just don't know where it leads —— maybe deeper underground?

Chen Xiaocai jumped off the cart with everyone on his back and stood on the ground. He felt firm under his feet. He just had a shallow layer of gravel, bent his head and grabbed a grip. His fingers quickly plunged into the gravel. He touched the hard rock ground. He grabbed this sand and pinched it in his hand. In the hidden area, the light of the star dots flashed... as if it had been caused by the crushing of ore, but the starlight was much weaker.

Chen Xiaoliang turned around and found that it was not just herself, but that Una bent over and grabbed a piece of gravel, but quietly stuffed it in her pocket.

Chen Xiaocai thought about it and did not interfere with her behavior.

Right in the middle of the hole, as if it were a ore disposal site.

A dish that looks like a furnace or a mixing oven is in the middle of nowhere.

Next to this vessel is a row of metal nameplates and directional arrows pointing to different places, corresponding to different mines in the distance around them.

Chen Xiaoliang walked over and took a look.

The text on these metal cards is not any of the words that Chen Xiaoliang knows, but thanks to the existence of the system, he would prefer to be able to read it.

It's just that other people, looking at them blindly, can't see the text of this metal plate anymore.

Chen Xiaolian sighed in his heart.

This text... doesn't seem to belong to this world!

(Mine hole number one... Mine hole number two... Mine hole number four... Mine hole number six... Well, this is the entrance... Well, this sign indicates... the main control center! There's an underground transport terminal?

Chen Xiaoliang stood in front of the nameplate and watched. Lin Leyan and others around him looked at Chen Xiaoliang with confusion. Especially Una, who couldn't help but ask: "Can you read this text? ”

Chen Xiaocai glanced at her and did not answer.

The main control center, just in the southwest corner of the tunnel, Chen Xiaoliang walked past, which is a dug out passage, like a kiln hole.

Chen Xiaocao glanced at the hole and walked in.

As he took the first step, the cave lit up suddenly.

Chen Xiaoliang's eyes shine.

Inside…… is a room!

Circular walls, not square, but one-third of them, were metal curtains, and when Chen Xiaolian walked in, there was a glimmer of light on the metal curtain.

Chen Xiaocai discovered that on the metal screen of the wall, there was a row of circular buttons in the lower left corner.

Chen Xiaocai glanced at this row of buttons, and his heart moved... The first one was a green button with a nameplate clearly on it.

“All on.”

Chen Xiaocai reached over, but touched the button, but did not press, hesitated for a moment and retracted his hand.

He walked out of the room and looked at the people standing outside.

“Let's go.” Chen Xiaoliang sighed.

Instead of talking, he led us to the other side of the cave and walked into a mine.

The cave is further down, and the lower the ground, the longer the orbit continues to be laid.

At the end of the day, it's an underground river!

Underground rivers of this magnitude are rare in Africa, I'm afraid.

A built dock appeared in front of everyone.

To Chen Xiaocai's satisfaction, a boat was docked by the dock.

The boat is not moveable by itself. To his surprise, Chen Xiaolian built a railway track directly into the river water by the dock.

The boat was erected on a railroad track.

Chen Xiaocai saw a map by the dock and walked over for a minute.

Turning back, Chen Xiaolian looked at Lin Leyan and Hans.

“Looks like we're going to say goodbye. ”

Lin Leyan was stuck.

Chen Xiaocai pointed to the boat: “This should be the freighter transported. After going up, the railway tracks lead all the way out of the mountain. I have seen the map. Along the railway tracks, the boat sails to the end of the mountain, it can get out of the mountain belly and reach a river along the border with the Congo, where you can get off the boat and walk across the border to reach the Congo. All you have to do is get off the boat and the boat will come back. ”

Lin Leyan gritted his lips and looked at Chen Xiaolian with a complicated look.

Hans whispered, “I see… everything here is weird, and I don't think we can be involved. ”

After a pause, Hans lowered his voice: “Don't worry, when you get out, we'll keep our mouths shut about what happens and what we see here. ”

Chen Xiaolei smiled, and he didn't care about that.

He implicitly felt… that the issue of confidentiality seemed not to worry at all, perhaps the system was already ready to exist.

Lin Leyan whispered: “Actually... I can stay with you, maybe, maybe I can help you with something. ”

Chen Xiaoliang looked at her and didn't speak.

Lin Leyan understood Chen Xiaocai's gaze and her smile became bitter: “Yes... obviously these things I can't understand... I may not really be able to do anything for you. I...”

“Our understanding is a fate, and it's good to have one like this.” Chen Xiaoliang whispered: “All we have to do is cherish such fate - but that's it. ”

“… I will remember you.” Lin Le Yan bites his teeth low.

“… so am I.” Chen Xiaocai sighed.

Several volunteers said goodbye to Chen Xiaolei, and everyone jumped onto the orbital boat.

Una was the only one left behind by Chen Xiaocao. The black woman was a little nervous.

Chen Xiaocai ignored her, walked over and said goodbye to the people on the boat. He and Hans hugged him and watched him sit there and bite his lips hard. Lin Leyan's body was shaking.

Chen Xiaoliang jumped over and hugged Lin Leyan, but found this woman holding herself dead, as if she refused to let go.

Chen Xiaocai sighed and patted her back comfortably.

“Ask you a question and answer honestly. ”

Lin Leyan's voice rang in his ear.

“Well, you said. ”

“That night... don't you regret it now?” Lin Le Yan blushed.

Chen Xiaoliang took a deep breath, relieved Lin Le Yan, looked at her eyes, sighed, and looked seriously: “My bowels are all regretted! ”

Lin Leyan burst out laughing, but tears began to flow more and more, but eventually he let go of his hand.

The orbital boat started, and soon began to run, driving forward along the railway in the river, Chen Xiaoliang stood ashore, waved at them, Lin Leyan waved his arms desperately, tears on his face until he could no longer be seen.

Una stood aside with a gloomy expression. Cold talk just now: "What are you going to do if you leave me here? Am I useful to you? You promised not to kill me! ”

Chen Xiaocao glanced at her: “You can stay and live... rest assured, I will keep my word. ”

After that, Chen Xiaoliang left the pier with Una and went along the mine cave back to the huge cave above, to the main control room.

Standing next to that row of buttons, Chen Xiaocai's hand finally rested on the "All On” button and suddenly smiled.

“I don't know what will happen if I press it? ”
