This is a huge metal ruins mountain, with countless abandoned machinery and metal materials piled up here, the magnetic field is chaotic, and the radiation elements are densely spread.
The most important thing is that there are no traces of the scavengers here! According to Du Mingxuan and the others' observations, it seems that this is not the inspection scope of the scavengers.
"Maybe it is because the radiation elements here cause too much damage to them!" Du Que said. These radiation elements and nuclear waste can corrode various substances. Even the scavenger's iron worm maggots cannot withstand it!
Du Mingxuan and Du Que have systematic alloy coating protection and can also support it. As for the weird iron egg, these nuclear pollution will not have any impact on it.
They used the ruins outside as bunkers and dug out a path from the ruins, preparing to dig out a hollow space inside as a temporary base.
"Sir, there is a giant mechanical skeleton here, which can be used as a support point for the base." Du Que found a huge mechanical wreck.
The wreckage is extremely huge, like a super machine as big as a football field. I don’t know what it is used for. The core part of it was broken, but the main torso of the body is still preserved and can be used as an iron skeleton to support the base.
There is a ruined mountain above the base. If the ruins are accidentally knocked down when hollowing out the middle, it will be a big problem. With this large debris, it can support the ruins mountain.
This large wreckage is difficult to move, so they dug the base according to the location of the mechanical wreckage, reinforced some damaged areas and transferred some obstacles.
If such a project was done by a construction team on earth, it would take at least a team of hundreds of people to complete, but it would take several months to complete it, but the speed of several mechanical lives to work together is very fast.
They can measure the places that may collapse, support strength, etc. directly, and construction can be carried out immediately.
"Get back and forth... Haha, I'm getting out so fast!" Tiedan was also helping. He put an iron ring on his body, pulling the huge mechanical wreck dozens of times larger than it was moving, cleaning up the waste residue.
"It's really strange. We are so disturbing here, and there is no scavenger coming?" Du Mingxuan was always alert, but no trace of the scavenger was found.
"Sir, I found an abnormal substance!" Du Que shouted. Du Mingxuan went over to check. There was a pool of black, unknown viscous liquid in a wreckage.
This liquid exudes an unpleasant odor, which corrodes all machinery made of special alloys.
"What is this?" Du Mingxuan wanted to identify its components, but there was no information in his core database.
"This thing..." Du Que was comparing the data. Suddenly, his radio waves of consciousness changed drastically, and he shouted: "Sir, we are in danger!"
"What?" Du Mingxuan immediately prepared for alert, but no scavenger was found around him.
"Sir, we must leave here quickly. I know why the scavenger is not here anymore!" Du Que and Du Mingxuan communicated through consciousness radio waves, and the speed was very fast.
"This is the excrement of the 'Golden Eater'! And it has not dried up completely, which means that the 'Golden Eater' is not far from here!"
When Du Que conveyed the news, he also passed the information of the "Golden Eater" to Du Mingxuan.
Gold-eating insects are another mechanical life of mechanical civilization. They do not have any clear subjective consciousness, but are like wild animals, only for survival.
They are generally not controlled by anyone. They live on the Origin Star and live by devouring metals or ores. They will repair themselves and replicate themselves under certain conditions. This kind of mechanical life is hostile to mechanical life like Du Mingxuan and Du Que, and is very aggressive.
"There are such things? How did they appear? Natural evolution cannot lead to such a life, right?" Du Mingxuan felt that his cognition was refreshed again.
"I don't know how they appeared. In my memory, it seems that on the day I was born, this kind of mechanical life existed in the Origin Star. There are also legends that they were created by some people to kill us. In addition to the gold-eating insects, there are other different kinds of mechanical life." Du Que said.
As soon as his radio wave of consciousness was transmitted, he turned around suddenly and shot a high-energy laser in a part of the ruins.
Du Mingxuan looked along the place where he attacked, and under the ruins, a mechanical worm that looked like a big centipede crawled over.
It is five or six meters long and has more than a dozen insect legs. The body can turn or twist at will. The insect mouth is like an iron crusher, which can crush hard metal into slag!
Duque's attack did not work for it. The high-energy laser destroyed one of its legs, but its movement speed was not affected at all, and it was still crawling over quickly.
"Get around...ah, what a terrible bug!" Tiedan saw the gold-eating bug and immediately rolled out.
Du Mingxuan immediately cooperated with Du Que to attack. He picked up a metal cutting saw and aimed it at the gold-eating insect.
"Sizizi..." The sharp cutting saw sputtered sparks on the gold-eating worm and cut into its body. But this worm is not organic life. As long as its core part is not damaged, it will dismantle it into hundreds of pieces, and it will not feel fear or pain!
One of the gold-eating insect's legs penetrated into Du Mingxuan's body and easily penetrated him. Fortunately, it did not hurt the mechanical core.
"Sir, be careful!" Du Que cut off the insect leg with a high-energy laser, then jumped up, jumped above the gold-eating insect, and used the laser to penetrate the control core in its body.
"Bang!" With an explosion, the gold-eating insect was killed in its original place, leaving behind a broken metal wreckage.
"Good guy, this thing is too fierce!" Du Mingxuan sat on the ground and repaired his body.
The last time the scavenger failed to seriously injured him, and this time he and Du Que almost failed to join forces.
"Woo(;′??Д??`)! So terrible, so many bugs!" Tiedan, who had just gotten out, rolled back. Seeing the scene behind it, Du Mingxuan couldn't help but curse: "Damn, can you let people live?"
I saw densely packed gold-eating insects crawling towards this side, with at least more than 40 of them, and maybe there were still some that were not detected.
A gold-eating worm is so difficult to deal with. These dozens of them are together, and they are in the middle of the ruins with limited mobility, and the danger level is directly at the highest!
"Mengdie, can you open the space door now?" Du Mingxuan asked hurriedly.
