The investigator sitting in the passenger seat looked through the car window at the location where the puck was coming and said with a smile.
"Oh, when we encountered them before, we had to fight with them to protect the ore. Now that we have this ore transport truck, we can just ignore them."
"Bang, bang, bang..."
When the egg-sized ice ball hit the ore transport truck, the vehicle shuddered and made a huge noise. Countless ice shards flew in all directions. The convoy seemed to be marching in a hail of bullets.
If an ordinary vehicle faces such an attack, it is inevitable that the vehicle will be destroyed and people will be killed after one round.
The attackers' attack was very ferocious, but the ore transport trucks were of excellent quality. They chased and attacked the convoy for hundreds of meters, but they were unable to cause any harm to the convoy.
"Buzz buzz..."
Hundreds of snow-white beasts, the size of pigeons and looking a bit like hummingbirds, looked at the retreating convoy, their eyes full of unwillingness.
…………
"Inspection passed! Released!"
As the horizontal railing at the entrance to the spiritual world station was slowly raised, an ore transport truck with a head height of 3.5 meters slowly drove into the spiritual world station in an orderly manner.
After the ore transport truck entered the station in the spirit world, it headed towards the location of the world passage. The drivers drove the vehicle through the world passage, unloaded the ore after Blue Star, and then returned to the spirit world.
The unloaded transport truck parked in the open-air parking lot designated in the spirit world station. The driver turned the vehicle's psychic engine to low-power operation, and the steam in the jet pipe also became weaker.
Maintenance personnel from nearby houses came immediately to debug and supply energy to the transport vehicle.
Because of the cold weather, in this environment, the transport vehicle suddenly stalled and it took a long time to restart.
This problem has been reported to the Psionics Research Institute. The next batch of ore transport trucks arriving should not have such defects.
"boom."
At the same time as the maintenance personnel arrived, the door of the transport vehicle opened from the inside out, and the people on the vehicle wearing thick winter clothes walked out. They said hello to the maintenance personnel, and then carried their luggage to different places in the spirit world station.
Walk in the direction.
One of the investigators did not leave like his companions, but went straight to the office of the transport vehicle maintenance department near the parking point. He came to an office with familiarity and knocked hard on the door twice.
"Bang bang bang."
After a while, an investigator of similar age opened the door, was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise, "Lao He, when did you come back?"
Investigator Lao He stepped into the house and took off his cold-proof helmet at the same time, revealing a wheat-colored face of about forty years old. He looked at the friends who greeted him in the house with a smile and said.
"Nonsense, of course I just came back."
"Is this the end of the mission to guard the mine?"
"It's over, I can come back and rest for a day."
Investigator Lao He casually answered the questions from his old friends, and then he took out a bag from his backpack.
This was a fruit from the spiritual world that he picked near the mine. He threw the fruit to his friends.
Listening to their surprised cheers, a happy smile appeared on his frozen face.
They were all the first batch to come to the spiritual world station. Originally, Lao He also wanted to work at this maintenance point like his friends.
But later, when Lao He made a breakthrough in cultivation, his superiors assigned him to go to the mine site to perform garrison duties.
As a mine site garrison, your life is always extremely boring. In addition to the garrison tasks, you often have to escort vehicles to and from the mine site and the spirit world garrison.
In the past, when the weather was warm, life was just boring. Later, after the blizzard appeared, life became a little difficult. The cold weather made my hands and feet freezing, and sometimes I encountered the danger of being attacked by strange animals...
Therefore, every time Lao He changed defenses and returned to his base in the spirit world, he would come and chat with his old friends.
"Lao He, you are returning from the defense change this time. Are you planning to take leave and return to Blue Star?" After chatting for a while, an investigator asked while eating the fruit that Lao He brought back from the mine site.
Lao He put the wet and cold coat on the "heater" to bake, and then took out another set of winter clothes from his luggage. He thought for a moment, shook his head and said.
"Wait a little longer. Recently we have discovered several new mining sites, and there are not enough guards. Now is not the time for me to go back."
"Hey, there aren't enough garrison personnel now, but it's not as exaggerated as you said.
Let me tell you, it doesn't matter how many days you return to Blue Star, and how long have you not been back? It's been half a year, don't you miss your daughter?" Another investigator took out a dozen beers and some peanuts from the locker.
Share it with others.
Hearing this, Lao He smiled, shook his head and said, "She is an adult. Now that she is old, she has nothing to think about. It is time for her to be independent."
"Bullshit, I don't believe you don't want to." The investigator who opened the door for Lao He before looked at you with a look on his face, took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it over, saying with a smile.
"When children have just grown up, they still have to keep an eye on them and let them roam free all the time. If their tempers become wild, what should they do if they don't go to school well?
A few days ago, Lao Qi from the next door department asked for leave and returned to Blue Star. After returning home, he mentioned his daughter to us and said he was worried."
"What did Lao Qi say?" Someone asked, not knowing.
"He said that since the explosion of spiritual energy, young people who had not been able to awaken their spiritual energy and could not practice in the past have begun to awaken their spiritual energy.
Nowadays, everyone can practice cultivation, and more and more young people are thinking that after passing the cultivation, they will become a peerless master." said the investigator who opened the door for Lao He.
"This is a good thing! The more people practice, the stronger our human power becomes," someone said.
"What a fart! It's easy for young people to be deceived, and it's easy to get their blood too high. After practicing, they gain power beyond ordinary people. If there are no parents around to control them, it's easy to get into trouble.
Just like what Lao Qi said about his daughter, it was a coincidence that when he went home that time, he happened to meet his daughter and wanted to stand up for her best friend who was being bullied.
If Lao Qi hadn't happened to come home, his daughter might have been arrested by his colleagues and taken into custody." said the investigator who opened the door for Lao He.
Everyone was silent for a while after hearing this. After all, we are all investigators. It would be really embarrassing for our children to commit crimes and be caught by colleagues and put into the police station. And the most important thing is that the child's path has gone astray. This is a very serious matter.
.
When Lao He heard what his friend said, he suddenly felt anxious. Although his daughter seemed to him to be very sensible, caring about her would lead to chaos.
He drank the beer in his hand "ton ton ton", and then said to his friends, "I'm going to ask for leave from the leader, and we'll talk later..."
