Continuing along the valley, there is a huge cave entrance, with a large number of excavation marks along the way.
Encountering little resistance along the way, the Star Thieves group led by Sea Wolf marched straight in and quickly entered the depths of the cave.
Lu Yuan always kept his position near the end of the first echelon of the Star Thieves, taking his time.
He hardly took any action in the middle, just randomly destroying a few hidden energy turrets.
But as Alfonzo, Sea Wolf's younger brother, even if he wants to keep a low profile, there are always many people paying close attention to his movements.
Lu Yuan paid attention. In addition to "Red Beard", there were also several levels of seven-level spiritual power that would often fall on him pretending to be inadvertent. Presumably they were several other star thieves who wanted to conspire to get rid of Sea Wolf.
A powerful person.
Lu Yuan wrote down the identities of several people, pretended as if nothing had happened, and continued to mingle among the Star Thief army.
"boom!"
The scarlet energy beam, which was almost solidified, hit an alloy door directly in front like a knife cutting through butter, leaving a large hole several meters in diameter in the door.
In the diffuse smoke and heat, the black mecha with the bloody wolf head totem stepped forward step by step on the molten steel. Its giant alloy arm, as strong as a giant, held the edge of the hole with a little force.
"Kacha kacha——"
With a heart-wrenching sound of metal twisting, Sea Wolf directly tore open the seven- to eight-meter-thick alloy door, opening up a huge entrance that could allow several level five mechas to enter and exit in parallel.
The huge team of Star Thieves was silent for a few seconds, and the originally noisy Level 7 pilot channel also fell into a tacit silence.
Even though Sea Wolf's reputation has always been prominent, seeing the opponent's powerful strength at such a close distance inevitably caused the Star Thieves to be slightly shaken again.
"Is this the strength of level eight?"
Lu Yuan watched the whole process of Sea Wolf controlling the mecha to forcefully open a road, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
Alfonzo's memory told him that the custom-made Bloodscream mecha driven by Sea Wolf was not a power-type mecha.
But judging from the strength that Sea Wolf showed just now, that strength is no less than that of his mecha body with lv2 grandmaster activated.
The basic performance of the eighth-level mecha alone is enough to crush a group of ordinary seventh-level mechas, without counting the spiritual blessings of the pilots who are also at the eighth level, resonance skills and other means.
"The existence of mechas makes the gap in combat power between each level more exaggerated the further you go.
This is just under the Star Spirit Realm. If you enter the Star Master Realm, the pilot's mental power will transform, and the mecha will also be sublimated into the Star Master Soldier, then the gap between realms will be really outrageous."
Lu Yuan thought silently in his heart.
The shortcomings of his mecha body are also exposed at this point. After other pilots advance in spiritual power, they only need to change to a higher-level mecha, and their combat effectiveness will undergo a qualitative transformation.
But even if he devours more advanced mecha forging materials, the overall strength of the mecha body will not change significantly.
The influence of the technology tree continues to grow.
"Walk."
Sea Wolf's cold voice came from the terminal channel, and a group of star thieves filed in through the gap.
Lu Yuan followed the group of star thieves into the gap.
After entering, when I saw the scene in front of me clearly, I was slightly startled.
On the way here, Lu Yuan kept silently remembering the entry route, knowing that after entering the valley, the direction they were heading was always downward.
By now it is estimated that it has reached more than 200 meters below the ground.
However, at this time, Lu Yuan suddenly discovered that the group of intruders, after crossing the barrier of the alloy gate, were at a high point.
——
The star thieves headed by Sea Wolf were all standing on a white platform.
With all of them piloting mechas, they are already considered giants in the eyes of ordinary people.
However, the white platform with nearly a hundred intermediate mechas standing on it still seemed quite spacious. It was estimated that all the people behind would have to come in to barely fill the platform.
And even this white platform still looks inconspicuous in the space in front of you.
Including Lu Yuan, almost all the star thieves were slightly shocked by the extremely huge ruins space in front of them.
big.
too big.
Under the thick rock dome is an empty black square with an ancient atmosphere.
They were like a group of ants that accidentally broke into a giant's tomb, falling into a brief state of shock and confusion.
"Ancient ruins. Are these so-called ancient ruins?"
Lu Yuan heard the muttering voice of a certain seventh-level star thief coming from the terminal channel.
He glanced around and noticed that the walls of the huge ruins cave in front of him were all slightly green, and the air was filled with an unusually sober and pleasant smell.
Lu Yuan was not a serious piloting mecha. Without the hindrance of the fresh air filtration system, he noticed it immediately.
Every time he took a breath, a steady stream of extremely pure life energy emerged from the air he inhaled into his lungs.
There seemed to be many fluorescent green spots floating in the field of vision.
At this moment, Lu Yuan suddenly understood——
When he first arrived at Lilva Planet and traveled at night, he encountered a fluorescent ocean like a rising tide. Where did it come from?
It actually came from this huge ancient ruins cave in front of me.
Perhaps this is why the vegetation on Lilva has grown so much over the years, transforming it from a dead and desolate planet into a tourist resource with beautiful scenery.
It's simply unbelievable.
"Life Source Mine is Life Source Mine"
Someone in the star thief group made a trembling voice. He raised his alloy arm and pointed at the green walls around the cave. He couldn't restrain his excitement and almost shouted: "It's everywhere here.
Life Source Mine! It’s everywhere! It’s developed! We’re developed this time!! Haha”
Apparently more than one person discovered this, and all the star thieves on the platform became commotion.
Mechas flew up from the white platform like crazy, flying towards the nearest wall, and some even fired directly at the cave wall.
There were bursts of howling sounds coming from the terminal channel. Lu Yuan frowned and simply turned off the channel.
Of course, his mood at this time was equally agitated.
Licking his lips slightly, Lu Yuan took a deep breath and slowly looked away from the green cave wall in front of him.
His eyes were lowered, and his body even took two steps back slightly.
he knows.
At this time, the more you need to know how to control your desires.
"Boom! Boom"
With loud explosions, more and more star thieves began to fire at the cave wall.
But surprisingly, the cave walls, which were mixed with a large amount of life source ore, were exaggeratedly hard.
Even if the firepower of the seventh-level mecha hits the stone wall, it can only rustle down some stone dust, revealing the deeper green beneath the surface. There are not large chunks of life source ore as everyone imagined.
The falling scene occurs.
"Buzz——"
A strange trembling sound of air suddenly sounded in the cave.
As soon as Lu Yuan raised his head, he saw several Star Thief mechas floating in mid-air in his field of vision, and the most "active" Star Thief mecha was swept past by a flash of crystal-like purple light.
Then the figure immediately stopped, the fuselage spewed out a large amount of flames, split into two parts, and fell from the air like a stone.
A few seconds later, the dull sound of a mecha crashing and exploding came from below.
In an instant, the noisy atmosphere on the Star Thief's side suddenly came to a halt, and everyone retracted in an instant, all looking down.
I saw a large number of fighting mechs appearing in the huge black square below.
These mechas are red gold in color, gorgeous in shape, and even have translucent energy cloaks on the back of the fuselage. They look like a team of well-equipped and well-trained ancient palace knights.
And in the center of this group of red gold mechas, two figures stood quietly.
Looking up at the Star Thief's eyes and expressions, it's like looking at a group of funny clowns.
Lu Yuan recognized at a glance that these two people were the young Lingting Guard young man he had met at the spacecraft landing point and Red Diamond City, as well as Lord Gem.
Judging from the appearance of the two of them, it seemed that they were not at all panicked by the Star Thief's attack and plunder. Instead, they felt as if they were confident enough to invite you into the urn.
"idiot."
At this time, the voice belonging to the sea wolf sounded in the ears of many star thieves.
"The source of life requires special technology to mine. Instead of wasting your efforts here, it is better to go down and grab the ready-made ones.
They don’t have time to move all the ore, there must still be a lot of ore in the cave at this time.”
"I see."
A star thief shouted, "Sea Wolf, you have to capture the gem fat pig alive for the mining technology in his hands."
You should have known that this is a golden mountain, and we can't move it all at once!"
"snort."
Sea Wolf snorted and said nothing, but the meaning he expressed was non-committal.
At this moment, everyone seemed to finally understand why Sea Wolf had promised only 30% of the harvest before taking action. It turns out that what is truly valuable is not the Life Source Mine, but the mining technology of the Life Source Mine.
And this technology is in the hands of Lord Gem!
"Stop giving me nonsense!"
"call--"
Waves, who was at the front of the team, suddenly turned around. The blood-red wolf head on the huge and thick black mecha had scarlet eyes. The cold and domineering power was like a hurricane, whistling and circling above the heads of many star thieves.
"The great wealth is down there, if you want it, go down and grab it!"
After saying that, the twelve-meter-tall black mecha suddenly flew into the air, with intense red light shooting out from all over its body, and fell hard towards the bottom of the cave like a burning black meteorite.
The location of the landing point was exactly in the direction of the two Lord Gemstones who were guarded by a group of red gold mechas.
"Ouch——"
With the sea wolf leading the charge, all the star pirates also started going crazy.
The atmosphere on the field suddenly became anxious, and hundreds of Star Thief mechas followed one after another, falling from the sky and pounced on the source of wealth in their eyes.
It was also at the same time that the Star Thieves launched their attack.
The red gold mechas under the cave also took off one after another.
The two groups of mechas met in mid-air a hundred meters above the bottom of the cave, like two waves of steel, one up and one down, colliding hard together.
"Boom!"
With just one encounter, the black mecha controlled by Sea Wolf directly tore through the siege and blockade of several red gold mechas.
Under the power of the eighth level, the three level seven red gold mechas in front of him were thrown away like toys and fell heavily into the distance.
But before the sea wolf could move forward again.
Lord Gem standing at the bottom, looking up at this scene, suddenly took two steps back with a smile.
Immediately afterwards, the light gray-haired young man standing next to him raised his eyelids calmly.
"Buzz——"
A burst of extremely dazzling silver light pierced the few darkness in the cave, and everyone who was fighting fiercely subconsciously narrowed their eyes.
When the dazzling silver light dissipates.
A circle of white air waves visible to the naked eye spread from high altitude, setting off huge winds.
I saw at the center of the battle group, two mechas, one up and down, one dark black and one silver white, pressing against each other.
A twisted scene like violently oscillating water waves appeared around the two, which was a strange phenomenon caused by the collision and confrontation of eight-level spiritual force fields.
This is an eighth-level battle!
"call--"
Lu Yuan exhaled a breath and jumped down from the white platform.
The mecha body shaped like the Blood Night Slayer drew a graceful arc in mid-air and quickly approached a rose-red mecha in front.
"Don't stay too far away from me. Always wait for my orders."
Lu Yuan quickly issued instructions to Sonis through the terminal, and then flexibly passed through the mechas, approaching the bottom of the cave.
"Whoosh——"
A red gold mecha emitting seven-level energy field fluctuations suddenly came in from one side and rushed towards the door on the far side.
Before he even got close, he was blocked by Sonis who came in a flash and held two flaming red blades.
Lu Yuan randomly locked onto another level 7 mecha and pretended to fight with it, but in reality his eyes were constantly wandering around Lord Gem and the Black Square below.
Lu Yuan's mental strength is only level four, but he has an advantage that no one else can match, that is, he is extremely sensitive to the breath of life energy.
The strong desire for life energy in the core of his body is like a special hormone constantly stimulating his brain nerves.
With every breath, this desire becomes stronger.
In Lu Yuan's consciousness, the huge ancient ruins cave was peeling away its visual appearance layer by layer.
Just like when he sensed those free evil god factors in the evil mystical realm of his home star.
The life energy permeating the cave appeared clearly in his mind bit by bit.
concentration distribution, source
"Saw it"
Lu Yuan suddenly raised his hand, and the two weapons similar to steel claws extending from the alloy arms flashed in front of him in exquisite and gorgeous arcs, easily tearing open the opponent's seven-level energy protection barrier, leaving two holes on the opponent's body.
There are deep claw marks crisscrossing the ground.
Then the level 7 red gold mecha flew back with a shocked look in its eyes. It closed its eyes and murmured in a low voice.
"I saw where you hid them."
At this time, Lu Yuan sensed that an extremely strong source of the ubiquitous life energy in the cave was located somewhere behind Lord Gem.
There should be a hidden secret door there, and behind the secret door there seems to be a hollowed-out storage space.
A large amount of mined life source minerals are present in it.
He couldn't estimate how far it would be. He only knew that it was a lot, very much, far more than he had expected.
After successfully finding the location of the Life Source Mine, Lu Yuan opened his eyes, but there was not much joy on his face, and his expression became unusually calm.
From the Star Pirates' attack, to the invasion of the ruins cave, and the fierce battle with the red gold mecha guards.
The time that passed in between was not too short.
Logically speaking, Lord Gem should be able to collect and transfer these life source minerals.
But I don't know why he didn't do that.
They didn't even use space storage props to store these source minerals, and they were just placed in a grand manner less than two kilometers away from the battlefield.
"In the end, there were too many and there was no time to move them.
still"
"on purpose."
At this time, Lu Yuan looked at the location of the Life Source Mine.
In his eyes, this huge pile of life source minerals was like a large plate of bait exuding an alluring aroma.
Just waiting for this group of people to take the bait.
