Chapter 1799 The troops are divided into two groups
Qu Jianlei's equipment was prepared more than 20 years ago.
What he was thinking was that one day, minerals might need to be mined massively and quickly.
At that time, the target of his planning was not the spirit stone mine, but certain energy stone mines.
Later, as the patterns of several worlds became clearer and clearer, Qu Jianlei really began to consider the possibility of mining spirit stone mines.
Anyway, no matter what he does, he is accustomed to doing his homework first - at worst, he will prepare for nothing, what can he lose?
But at this moment, it really comes in handy!
Seeing the frantic digging, screening and sorting of mining equipment, the Asuras were a little speechless.
Blood Hammer let out a long sigh, "I finally understand why the Immortals use technological weapons to fight. It's so worry-free."
"Isn't this nonsense?" Hua Lei snorted coldly. She was a native of the Federation and hated Asura.
If it was a giant hammer with eight arms, she might not have the guts to express her stance, but with a blood hammer with six arms, it wouldn't matter.
Even if she is only an A-level.
"You..." Xue Hammer glanced at her, feeling very angry. Do you have a role to speak here?
However, the next moment, it took a gentle breath, then nodded with a smile, "You are right!"
Although it had a smile on its face, the muscles in the corners of its eyes were twitching, obviously trying to control it.
"You don't need to be duplicitous." Hua Lei was not used to it at all. "Why use spiritual energy when it can be solved with external force?"
"Okay, that's true," Blood Hammer said at a loss.
After cleaning the battlefield, Zichao roared away with everyone, leaving only a lot of machinery working there.
Jumai also saw this scene and couldn't help but ask questions on the way.
"How will mining end like this? Wouldn't it be terrible if an Asura breaks in?"
It just so happened that Duo Gan was on duty in the cave.
She was very shrewd in what she did, and she just smiled lightly when she heard this, "Technology also has its merits, you just don't understand it!"
However, for Jumai, this kind of casual and understatement is the most unacceptable.
Despite the ancestor's instructions, it couldn't help but say, "That might also expose it...or lose some spiritual stones?"
"It's rare for you to have such a heart," Dogan replied calmly, "but don't worry, we know what we are doing."
Juchui rolled his eyes helplessly when he heard this. He was really... so angry!
Fifteen days later, they came to another spirit stone mine and still operated according to the rules.
After two battles, one division-level ship was severely damaged, two were slightly damaged, and countless ammunition and energy blocks were consumed.
But compared to the gains, these efforts are worth it. After all, spiritual stones cannot be bought even with money.
While cleaning the battlefield, a white light flashed in a division ship, and a woman appeared on the teleportation array.
This is Jia Shuiqing's clone, responsible for overseeing the mining of the previous Lingshi mine.
In just fifteen days, a tribe had finished mining half of the mines that it took a century to mine.
Of course, this efficiency is undeniable, but the loss is indeed huge.
The blood hammer estimated that the loss would be more than half, but I can only say...it was pretty close to guessing.
In the process of mining, blasting, brutal excavation, etc. are really normal. It is a ghost if the losses are not high.
In fact, the overall mining cost is not low, and brute force cracking requires a lot of energy support.
Fortunately, for Qu Jianlei and others, the cost of energy blocks can be basically ignored.
On the contrary, it is the mechanical wear and tear that makes repair and maintenance more troublesome.
Even if you can consider buying new ones, the process of modifying mechanical equipment also requires computing power and time, right?
In any case, Asura still needs about a hundred years to mine the spiritual stone mine, and they only took fifteen days to mine it.
It would be strange to say that there are no huge costs and shocking waste in this process.
However, Jia Shuiqing's clone reported a figure that satisfied everyone - ordinary spiritual stones cost just over 10 million yuan.
According to this calculation, if mining is carried out safely, the amount will definitely exceed 20 million yuan.
Although it takes a hundred years, it can produce a fixed output of 200,000 spiritual stones every year. This is not bad, right?
In addition, Jia Shuiqing also mined more than 200,000 pieces of medium-grade spiritual stones.
Speaking of which, for a tribe to mine with great fanfare and have a spiritual stone mine guarded by the Brood, this output seems a bit modest.
But what needs to be emphasized is that this is a spiritual stone mine in the starry sky, not the kind found on the star continent that may affect spiritual intelligence.
The spiritual stone mines on Star Continent basically involve spiritual veins, and sustainable development must be considered when mining.
But speaking more broadly, spiritual veins involve the spiritual intelligence of the entire star continent, which is too much of a hindrance.
But the spirit stone mine in the starry sky has no such taboo.
Therefore, this kind of spiritual stone mine, no matter how small it is, is a treasure. It is picked up anyway, and it costs almost nothing. It is definitely worth taking seriously.
The only regret is that there are no high-grade spiritual stones, but... this is reasonable.
Without the nourishment of spiritual veins, even if there are high-grade spiritual stones, they will gradually degrade to mid-grade or even ordinary spiritual stones.
Being able to discover spirit stone mines in the starry sky is already pretty good, so what more bicycles are needed?
In the past fifteen days, no Asura's lair has been close to there, so the news should not have leaked out yet.
But how long this secret can last, only God knows.
Immediately afterwards, the second spirit stone mine also began to be mined intensively.
At the same time, Qu Jianlei and his party teleported to the vicinity of the "Danghu" nebula through a temporary teleportation array.
The last time they came here, a teleportation array was set up on a small meteorite here, and they got reasonably close.
But this is the spiritual stone mine they decided to mine forcibly for the last time.
Because the current status of the two Lingshi mines may be exposed at any time, we must hurry up on the mining of the third Lingshi mine.
The purpose of setting up the teleportation array in advance is to prepare for this time difference.
The teleportation array is still over 30 million and nearly 40 million kilometers away from the planet where the spirit stone mine is located.
But this time, Qu Jianlei did not release the child nest, but let Xizhao lead him forward.
There are two Brood Nests stationed here, which are much stricter than those at the first two Lingshi Mines and cannot be ignored.
Although the damage in the first two battles was not serious, one division-class ship was seriously damaged and two were slightly damaged...it was actually quite traumatic.
How many division-class ships does the entire Digital Phantom have under its name? There are no such disasters.
The two of them quietly approached the star, but were shocked to find that there was only one brood stationed here!
In order to confirm the news, they spent most of the day walking around in a circle.
Facts have proved that their observations were correct. There was indeed only one brood nest here, not two.
"Have one been withdrawn?" Xizhao sent out his spiritual consciousness, "But it's normal...after all, the war on the front line is a bit tight."
Asura's armed forces are very strong. It is said that the losses on the front line are not very large compared to the entire ethnic group.
However, any normal society will strive for a balance between supply and demand, and the absolute share of mobility will not be very large.
If there are local losses, they will inevitably be mobilized from other places, but who will retain too much mobile power?
Therefore, it is normal for various places to be stretched thin.
It is not too much to transfer a brood nest from here.
But Qu Jianlei was used to being careful, "Let's see again, what if it's a trap?"
"Then we might as well sneak into the nest directly," Xizhao gave a bold suggestion, "and see what tricks they are playing."
Qu Jianlei's heart skipped a beat, and after thinking for a moment he said, "I'll go discuss it with everyone."
The previous two times were strong attacks, which were to save everyone's combat power as much as possible, but this time, it is the last one in the short term.
So he landed on the surface of the mother's nest and entered the cave to ventilate with everyone.
Finally, everyone agreed that Jing Yuexin would lead the cave, wearing an invisibility cloak, and follow the sunset into the nest.
Although she has never made sacrifices to the cave, but with the cooperation of the weapon spirit, it is not a big deal.
Qu Jianlei, with his cloud crown, was lying in ambush around him, ready to take action at any time.
The invisibility effect of the invisibility cloak feels a bit useless at the moment.
Under normal circumstances, Nascent Soul will not notice its existence.
But if you sense it carefully and purposefully, not to mention the human Nascent Soul, the eight-armed Asura may find something wrong.
Fortunately, although this is a heavily guarded mine, in most cases, accidents always come from outside.
Therefore, the security of the mother nest is relatively lax, and most of the security tasks are undertaken by the smaller nests on the periphery.
This is actually normal. The mining of Lingshi mines takes decades and hundreds of years, and the guard force cannot always be highly tense.
Only a thousand days can make a thief, how can a thousand days prevent a thief?
Jing Yuexin and Xizhao easily sneaked into the nest.
About ten minutes later, the sound of fire suddenly erupted from the nest, and it became chaotic in just a few seconds.
The nearby nests all discovered something unusual and started to pay attention to it.
After another two minutes or so, even the small nests on guard in the distance got the news and changed their routes to come over.
At this moment, there was a slight fluctuation in the air, and a secondary nest appeared.
It appeared quite suddenly, but the surrounding nests were paying attention to the movements of the mother's nest, and some were even approaching the mother's nest.
So for a while, no nest noticed it.
However, this negligence did not last long. About ten seconds later, a nest discovered it.
Even the lair recognized its origin, "The lair of the Gangzhi tribe, what do they want to do?"
There are almost no asuras who are mining or guarding here who don't know about Gangzhibu.
After all, this mine was originally discovered by Goushii, but was later taken away by Ishigakibe and Gou, and then even the dividends were lost.
Gangzhibu struggled with this for a while, but it was a pity that no one made the decision for them.
Now this tribe's secondary lair suddenly appeared around the mine. Just looking at its appearance, it was obvious that its intentions were not very friendly.
