Gate of Apocalypse

Going out during the day, accompany the wife to buy some yearly goods, while purchasing some supplies for the mother and child.

It's late to come back, good thing the update didn't exceed 12 o'clock.

There are too many people outside at the end of the year... and mother and child supplies, things are really expensive...]

……

Chapter 372 [Too Expensive!

When Chen Xiaocai's hand pressed, a green light suddenly swept through his palm of hand on this button. Soon, a line of text appeared on the metal screen of the main control.

[Identification, complete the occupation of the mining area. After the occupation lasted 48 hours, ownership was confirmed.

Then came a countdown number, which instantly changed from 48 hours to 47 hours, 59 minutes and 59 seconds, and is still decreasing...

Chen Xiaolian's mouth rose and a slight smile appeared.

A plan map soon appeared on the metal screen. Chen Xiaolei glanced at it and recognized it. This should be the plan of the mining area.

The mining area has a total of eight caves, centered around this huge hole in the middle, scattered in a spiderweb, each with its own connecting channels, each with its own railway track.

In addition, there are two external imports and exports. One is the entrance you entered earlier, with the bucket car on the rail as the vehicle. The other is the pier of the underground river.

The metal screen is large and still touch-screen. Chen Xiaolei stood in front of the metal screen and randomly docked a mine hole on the plan. Soon, this map jumped out and a full range of surveillance images appeared. In the image, it was a quiet mine hole, railway tracks, and a bucket car...

Chen Xiaoliang confirmed that there should be monitoring devices in each mining hole.

On the bottom row of buttons, after careful identification, Chen Xiaocai identified something.

The functions of the buttons are:

Total ON (manipulates the activated and closed state of the mine).

The remaining eight buttons, respectively, control the opening and closing of eight mining holes. Depending on the circumstances, it may be decided to open or temporarily close a mining hole.

The last button is the switch on the smelter in the central cave.

Chen Xiaoliang was curious about the smelter, exactly what this C11 mine was.

Shortly after, Chen Xiaoliang found instructions in this control center.

[C11 Mine, also known as Starstone, Source: Unknown. Depending on the content, it can be smelted to produce “star crystallization”, also known as "star sand”. Application: Super strength alloy matching ingredient, can greatly improve alloy hardness and toughness, add 15 grams of star sand per kilogram of alloy steel, can improve original strength and toughness by 180-560% (depending on star sand purity, as well as base metal material strength and toughness).

I bought a bag last year!

Chen Xiaolian couldn't bear blowing a whistle.

Increase the hardness and toughness of the original metallic material... and increase the magnitude so hard against heaven?!

This star sand is a good thing! Absolutely good stuff!

Chen Xiaoliang's eyes became hot and his heart began to get hot.

But... such a magical thing, if it appears in a copy, is understandable.

But… why in the real world?!

Isn't this a BUG that completely disrupts the balance of the real world?!

If this thing gets one of the governments in the real world, is it worth it?!

Definitely black tech stuff!!

But then the message made Chen Xiaoliang sigh.

The cost of using this mine is not low!

Firstly, it is not expensive to open mining areas.

But… if you open eight of these mining holes, it will come at a price!

Opening a mining hole costs 100 points per month!

Eight mining holes are fully open and need… 800 points per month! Every month!

9,600 a year!!

Can these guys afford it?!

This isn't over!

Mining is something that requires the General Control Center to produce a "mining robot”.

A mining robot, with a one-time cost of 100 points, can last two years.

And every mining robot, it costs 1 point to work every day, is every day!!!

Approximately 500 kg of ore can be collected daily.

According to the introduction, only 5 grams of star sand can be extracted by smelting pure star sand, about every 100 kilograms of ore!

100 kg = 5 g!!

Each mining hole can accommodate up to 8 mining robots working simultaneously.

Forget it, if every robot is a heavy workload, a robot can extract 25 grams of star sand every day!

Eight robots per mine can produce 200 grams of star sand per mine.

Eight mine holes yield up to 1600 grams per day!!

The maximum output per month… will not exceed 50,000 grams.

50,000 grams, looks like a lot.

But... Chen Xiaolei saw the introduction to Star Sand before.

Each kilogram of metal requires 15 grams of star sand to function.

Five thousand grams a month. Looks like a lot of metal, right? Enough to get three tons of metal to use.

Get some swords, axes, armor, whatever. This kind of cold weapon equipment is enough.

But……

This kind of super strong alloy, if only used for cold weapons, is the brain pit!

This kind of super strength alloy, Chen Xiaoliang's first reaction... of course it's to get technical equipment!!

Fighter! Even…

Mecha!!

How much alloy steel does a mechanic need?

For example, there are about 10 tons of lightweight mechanical armor!!

Ten tons of armor, equal to 100,000 kilos!! It costs 150,000 grams of star sand!!

This mining area needs all eight mine holes, each full load of eight robots, and heavy work fits, at least… 3 months!!

Just enough to get a mechanic, or a light mechanic!!

What if it's real high-end?

Chen Xiaocai is a residential man, he knows, legendary up to and including the main mechanical armor.

Like the famous "Strike Freedom" … multiple?

The body weighs more than 80 tons!!!

1.2 million grams of star sand is required!!!

The mine produces up to 50,000 grams a month.

All eight mine holes in the whole mining area are fully loaded for mining and extraction, which takes almost two years to dry!

is enough to use a true mainframe!!

And the cost...

Eight mines are fully open and require 9,600 points a year.

The whole area can hold 64 mining robots at 100 points per robot at a cost of 6400 points!

That's 15,000!

And each robot, it takes 1 point to keep it running, 64 robots, 64 points a day.

One year… 365 days.

Cost 23,360 points!!

23,360 points plus 15,000 points...

Nima!

It costs 38,000 + points a year to come down!!

38,000!!!

How many points does Chen Xiaoliang's entire family have?!

How many points can you earn per copy?!

Want to equip a real armor with star sand, like the real big guy in Roddy's hand...

Two years!

Two years!!

The cost is just over 70,000 in two years, almost 80,000!!

In that case, let Chen Xiaoliang catch cold sweat!

Touchy, touchy!!

Chen Xiaoliang suddenly understood!

This mine is no ordinary awakener to play with!

No, ordinary individual awakeners don't even deserve to see it!

The average team of awakeners can only look up to.

Only super large teams… groups at the level of permanent teams in Zero City are eligible to support such mining areas!!

“Too expensive! It's too expensive! It's not just expensive! It's so expensive! ”

Chen Xiaolian cursed harshly, spat harshly, his eyes were red.

Things are definitely good.

Imagine how much better his combat power would be if he could get a tech guy like Roddy to equip his armor with a good thing like sex star sand?!

It's scary to think about it!!

This is not just an increase in armor defense strength, but an overall increase!

For example, how much more power and power can a kernel engine and other devices increase if they are made of improved materials?!

How much more combat power can defense armor increase?

“Too expensive...” Chen Xiaocai sighed holding his head.

Una stood at the door, only to see Chen Xiaoliang's emotions suddenly rise, then quickly fell down, holding her head there muttering to herself, like a schizophrenic. The black woman's face also became strange.

After a while, Chen Xiaoliang sighed.

“Nevertheless, there will be a way before the car gets to the mountain. Anyway, since I have it in my hand, I can't miss it for nothing! ”

He fiercely tightened his fist!

At a glance at the countdown of occupation time, there are 47 hours left.

Chen Xiaocai thought about it carefully: “Rest first, maintain your spirit... I don't know what will happen in the next two days. ”

After speaking, Chen Xiaoliang did not hide from Una. She took out some food, found a clean place to sit down and started eating and drinking.

Nor did he offend Una, giving her some food and water, and summoning Garfield to be with him.

Then Chen Xiaocai simply found a spacious place, and took out a marching bed from the storage watch to open it, and lay on it and began to snore and sleep.

He needs to be healthy.

God knows who the system will come up with to compete for this mine.

Even in his sleep, Chen Xiaoliang muttered to himself.

“Too expensive...”

……

Una was full of food and drink, but she dared not move. Next to her were three four-eyed war cats staring at the tiger.

Looking at the three beasts, Una stood carefully.

She found that the three monsters ignored themselves as long as their range of activity did not exceed that of the tunnel, and that as soon as they revealed what might have gone far, such as walking to the edge of a hole, one of them would turn his head and stare at himself, making a low roar of the threat of "whoop”.

Una was helpless in her heart and cursed Chen Xiao harshly in her heart, but she sat down and waited patiently.

Chen Xiaoliang has slept for almost 20 hours!

He had hardly slept for three days before, and this sleep finally made up for all the energy he had lost.

When he woke up, Chen Xiaoliang stretched out his lazy waist. He picked up his phone and called old man Joe.

Still, the other party's phone is off.

Chen Xiaoliang grinned and put away his phone.

Old man Joe, this must have something to do with it!

But now the mine falls into my own hands... I'm not afraid he won't come looking for me!

This mine, he must know!

When he stood up, Chen Xiaoliang felt energetic and full of energy. Looking at the mines around him, his heart was even hotter.

Time is about 26 hours away.

According to the systematic interpretation, once the occupation has accumulated for 48 hours, the mine can be held for a period of one year even if it is truly owned by itself, during which time no one else can compete.

Chen Xiaocao got up and walked around the mine before returning to the main control room.

Suddenly, a few light points appeared on the floor map of the main control room.

It's the location of the entrance.

Two red light spots appear at the entrance!

Chen Xiaolian's heart moved. Indeed, a hint appeared on the metal screen.

[The alien entered the mining area and his identity is unknown.

Chen Xiaoliang moved his mind and clicked on the map of the entrance. Soon a surveillance image appeared.

Two guys standing by the railroad bucket at the entrance.

One thin tall, one medium figure.

Chen Xiaocai saw one of the thin and tall guys, under the trench coat, he could see the protective coat, so he confirmed the identity of the other guy!

Either the player or the awakener.

Considering that this is not a copy, but the real world, the latter is more likely.

Chen Xiaolian hopes to be an awakener rather than a player.

Because if there are players in the real world, they are definitely advanced players like Miaoyan!

Guys like that, they can't handle themselves.

“Sure enough... someone came to compete..." Chen Xiaocai snorted.
