Super Gene Hunting Ground

”Boom”, a massive boulder weighing thousands of pounds landed a hundred meters away from the mine pit, causing the ground to tremble slightly and forming a small crater.

Luo Meng said in surprise:

”Station Master, your spiritual power has greatly increased!”

To be able to move a boulder weighing thousands of pounds from a hundred meters away, this spiritual power was indeed terrifying, at least in Luo Meng’s view, David’s spiritual power seemed to have grown rapidly, he hadn’t seen him so powerful before.

David had been learning Go from Yang Xiao for two months, not only did his skill in Go improve, but the essence of Go Yang Xiao taught him broke his previous limitations, giving him a certain room for improvement.

Plus, playing Go daily with Yang Xiao, his spiritual power increased rapidly.

David glanced at the collapsed mine, and shook his head with a wry smile,

”Alas, I’m afraid I won’t be able to save Master Yang,

even if I gather the twenty or so team captains from the base, we can’t clear all these stones, unless someone of Emperor Level or higher makes a move to shift the stones from this hundred-meter-deep pit.”

”Station Master, do we need to ask the Emperor of Purple Origin Star for help?”

David shook his head,

”Ask the Emperor to save a few miners? Do you think he would agree?”

Luo Meng listened and shook his head.

”Can we find Thunder Bomb Drill from other bases?”

”It’s too late, even if our own base has Thunder Bomb Drill, it would take a week to drill through a hundred-meter-deep mine shaft, do you think they can survive a week?”

”If there’s enough food, maybe they can barely make it, Yang Xiao has a Space Ring, he usually prepares some extra food, and they also have Small Blood Pills, they can probably last about ten days.”

Luo Meng still didn’t want Yang Xiao to die just like that, he still wanted to play Go with him, the last time he won fifty million Gold Coins, all were given to Yang Xiao, he hadn’t gotten them back yet.

David seemed to have made up his mind, his expression was no longer as hesitant as before, he lightly said:

”Captain Luo, I know you don’t want Yang Xiao to just die like this, neither do I,

I also know you gave Yang Xiao the fifty million Gold Coins you won last time, I even gave him eighty million Gold Coins!

You know better than I do how much it costs to drill such a mine shaft with Thunder Bomb Drill, and even if we get through, the chances of Yang Xiao surviving are slim,

even if they have food, the air in the mine won’t be enough for them to breathe for ten days, right?

Even if there’s enough air in the mine for them to breathe for ten days, how do you know that the savages haven’t killed Yang Xiao and the others?

Yang Xiao and his group are all just King Level Evolvers, Ah Bao’s tribe has twenty or thirty Emperor Level Evolvers, isn’t it easy for them to kill Yang Xiao and the others?

They destroyed the mine just to vent their anger,

the savages have been killed by us recently in the teens, so they came to destroy the mine as revenge.”

Luo Meng felt a sinking feeling inside, and nodded.

Drilling a hundred-meter-deep mine shaft with Thunder Bomb Drill costs about a hundred million Crystal Coins, and considering the low chances of Yang Xiao’s survival, this investment obviously did not make sense.

If it could be confirmed that Yang Xiao and the others were still alive, David might have tried everything to save Yang Xiao, after all, Yang Xiao’s help in cultivating his spiritual power was significant.

Luo Meng sighed, looked at David, and said:

”Station Master, are we just giving up like this?”

”What else can we do?”

David retorted.

Luo Meng fell silent.

”Get your people together and temporarily reallocate them to the other two mining fields, enhance the guards, and also check the monitoring equipment to prevent the same thing from happening again.”

David finished speaking and turned to walk towards the nearby spaceship.

Suddenly Luo Meng shouted:

”Station Master, what if the savages come to secretly mine?”

David stopped in his tracks and gritted his teeth,

”I actually hope they do come, then I will also destroy the mine and bury Ah Bao and them alive, to vent the anger in my heart.”

David finished speaking and boarded the spaceship to leave.

Luo Meng looked at the collapsed mine in front of him and muttered to himself:

”Master Yang, it’s not that I won’t save you, it’s really hopeless. Rest in peace!”

Luo Meng finished speaking, gathered the team, checked the monitoring equipment near the mine, made some minor repairs, and then they all left aboard the spaceship.

...

Yang Xiao and the others were anxiously waiting inside Shuilian Cave.

The cold water rushed over everyone’s bodies but could not calm their anxious hearts.

When truly faced with death, not many people could let go and accept it.

During this time, Gu Beifeng went down to the mine pit once; the water in the mine pit was already about ten centimeters deep, submerging their ankles.

There was no shortage of oxygen temporarily; in fact, everyone even felt their breathing was more unobstructed than before.

”It’s simple,” Gu Beifeng explained, ”the accumulated water in the mine pushes the air upward, increasing air density. So for now, we don’t feel a lack of oxygen; in fact, breathing feels even easier because the concentration of oxygen in the air has temporarily increased.”

Yang Xiao was at the very front, with the rushing water about a meter ahead above his head, eagerly washing over the rocks.

Suddenly, Yang Xiao felt a long, thick, slippery something slide past him, startling him internally.

”Damn, what is that, it bit me,”

shouted Du Tianxing from behind.

Everyone immediately turned on several lights and suddenly saw a three-meter long, arm-thick golden monster sliding downwards through the cave.

Gu Beifeng was alerted and saw the golden monster sliding towards him. He reached out to grab its neck.

The golden monster suddenly reared up, opened its mouth, and its sharp teeth lunged at Gu Beifeng’s arm.

As a King Level Evolver, Gu Beifeng naturally wasn’t afraid. With a slight motion of his Divine Sense, his claw turned into a fist, a flash of light burst forth, and he struck with a powerful force.

But the golden monster seemed not to fear at all; its entire body flashed with a golden glow, and its long tail whipped towards him.

Bang!

Gu Beifeng’s fist met with the tail of the golden monster, his body shook, and his fist felt a tingling pain.

”Fuck!”

Gu Beifeng got angry, his palm transformed, releasing a Soul Skill, Tiger Claw,

with a slap, a massive tiger claw hit towards the head of the golden monster,

The golden monster opened its mouth wide, wanted to tear apart,

but was quickly smacked by Gu Beifeng along with its body directly into the cave wall,

with a ”boom” sound,

a meter-sized pit smashed into the rock wall, debris flying.

The monster squealed, its head deformed, and blood flowed from its mouth, dead.

Gu Beifeng grabbed the monster, which looked like an eel from Earth, but its teeth were sharp like steel saws, extremely sharp.

”Everyone be careful, the level of the monsters here is not low, this golden eel-like mutant monster is probably at the Enhanced Gene Advanced level.”

As he was speaking, people above suddenly screamed,

Dozens of golden eels slid from the hole above, their upper bodies raised, mouths open showing sharp teeth, launching an attack on people inside the cave.

Yang Xiao was at the very front, perhaps because the water flow was too rapid, those eels swiftly slid past Yang Xiao and started attacking the people lying in the cave a bit further down.

Everyone was initially unprepared and coupled with the dim light, several people were bitten, directly having chunks of flesh torn off, bleeding profusely, and screaming in pain.

”Everyone spread out, draw your swords, cut directly, don’t grab with hands anymore, and also, don’t use Soul Skills; if the cave collapses, it’s all over.”

”Fuck your ancestors, my ass got bitten.”
