"But the formation process of coal itself is extremely complicated. The branches, leaves and roots of plants accumulate into thick black humus, which is continuously buried underground through changes in the earth's crust. It has to be isolated from the air, high temperature and pressure for a long time, and has to withstand a long period of time. Complex physical and chemical changes, etc., the whole process takes almost tens of millions of years.
According to ideals, it should take even longer to generate energy from the original matter. It’s incredible how long it takes.”
Xiao Jing patted her head, "Why are you thinking so much? You just mentioned the opportunity. The opportunity may be a long time, or it may only be a moment."
Qi Zhen blinked, "If you can do it, I know you might be able to create a way to get rich."
Xiao Jing raised his eyebrows, "Oh, come on."
"It's so insincere." Qi Zhen wrinkled her nose in dissatisfaction. , she is serious. But it's too early to argue about this now. The most important thing is whether we can keep the coal. "If we leave like this, will the new coal be discovered?"
"No. Even if it is discovered, they will not be able to leave the territory of the alien beasts."
Qi Zhen meets Xiao Jing showed a meaningful expression, and instantly felt that the matter was not that simple. He asked tentatively, "When you say you can't get out, do you mean it is convenient for alien beasts or other things?" Qi Zhen, a thoughtful person, is not just guessing. After all, the Jixiang Mercenary Group is here. Their planet is really not top-notch.
To put it bluntly, as long as any powerful force does not understand the problem here, it should not be their turn. But the fact is that they are here, and coming alone seems fishy no matter how you think about it.
Surprise flashed in Xiao Jing's eyes, his wife was far smarter than he thought. Not prepared to give in, she gave an affirmative answer, "It's possible, even if you are lucky enough to escape from the mouth of a strange beast, you won't be able to get out of the territory."
Qi Zhen understood immediately, "The big fish eats the small fish." Xu Bin and others regarded them as small fishes, but they did not know that they were also small fishes. After thinking about it, I found it unbelievable, "They don't take precautions."
"Yes, the remaining people should be distributed on the edge of the alien beast's territory, and there are quite a few of them. However, there should not be many with strong combat power. This team can see it."
"What the hell, we don't want to use the human sea strategy now." The gap in combat power is huge. Qi Zhen is not optimistic about this group of people at all. What's more, there must be more than one team spying on them, and they might even join forces. As the saying goes, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests.
"This has nothing to do with us. You just need to know that we have enough time to dig that batch of coal."
"That's not necessarily true. If they all died in Qihang There will always be people coming in to explore the city again. "If you want to give up such a big piece of fat, you will never let go to the hungry wolves who have been hungry for a long time. The planet is short of resources, and the struggle to snatch resources is not at all weaker than that of a prosperous planet, and is even more radical and brutal.
"There must be some scruples when the whole army is wiped out. Their own people dare not go to investigate rashly, and the same is true for the forces secretly waiting for the results. I think Xu Bin still has time to deceive us, and he wants to come and give it to himself.The time limit for the tasks we have set is not short, and when we work together, we have enough time to accomplish what we want to do. "
Qi Zhen thought about it carefully, but she still had questions, "You seem to be very sure that they will not leave Qihang City. ”
“I can’t guarantee it until I see the strange beast, otherwise I wouldn’t take you around.” "If he had some chance of winning alone, he would not be able to win with A-Zhen.
Although Xiao Jing's powers were damaged, he easily tricked the gang, so she believed what he said. It's true. "Then let's go dig coal tomorrow morning." Hangcheng. If we don't avoid it deliberately, collision is inevitable.
"Uh," ask me. "Let's learn about the strange beasts first." We all wandered around their territory for two days without coming out to meet each other, and we had no sense of being hosts at all. "Although Qi Zhen pretends to be relaxed, she is actually quite nervous. Why did she suggest digging for charcoal? It's because she doesn't want to confront strange beasts. It's only a day as long as she can delay it. It's normal for people to be afraid of unknown things. If we really face it, Just try not to be timid.
Xiao Jing couldn’t help laughing, “Be careful, walls have ears. "
"No, there are ears across the ground. "While Qi Zhen was talking, she had a foreign pickaxe in her hand, and her eyes were fixed on the mound of soil that suddenly appeared at the bottom of the tree for a moment. The crow's mouth always talks about strange beasts when talking about something bad. This time it's time to talk about it. < /p>
As Xiao Jing stood up, he stepped towards another tree trunk, deftly blocking Qi Zhen without affecting her movement.
"Chacha" a pair of pliers emerged from the mound of soil. , like two sharp knives, glowing with a cold light, and soon two thin and long tentacles stretched out, capturing the position of the two people in just a moment.
The round heads were followed. , with an unusually soft body and a pair of wings as thin as cicada wings, the alien beast Earth Worm finally reveals its true face. The Earth Worm can freely shuttle underground, can fly short distances, and is extremely fast. A pair of pincers can attack and defend, and its wings It's thin, but it's not a weakness. It can't fly but can still move freely.
"Chacha" mounds of earth appeared in many places, and dozens of identical ground insects quickly emerged. The tentacles on his head were shaking, as if exchanging information.
He didn't attack immediately.
Xiao Jing became more and more defensive, "The body of the earth insect is with me." They are similar to ordinary bugs, very fragile, just find an opportunity to smash them. Remember not to get caught by the mud it sprays. The mud can not only inhibit supernatural powers, but also increase the weight on the body and restrict movement. "Earth worms are just ordinary second-level alien beasts, and they are extremely common in the wild.
Xiao Jing is naturally familiar with it. It stands to reason that it is extremely unlikely that such a low-level species can activate supernatural powers, let alone in groups. , the total number of things he has encountered before are not as many as now. The earthworms here are obviously breaking the rules, and it is definitely not a good thing. "Be careful, there may be situations I don't know about. "What he just said is probably understood by the people guarding outside.
"I see. "Qi Zhen held the wooden handle of the foreign pickaxe tightly and stared at the earth insects without blinking.
This earth insect team is one of the advance troops, responsible for collecting information and finding out if necessary The strength of the enemy.
The leader waved his claws humanely, and dozens of ground insects rushed towards Qi Zhen and Xiao Jing without hesitation, attacking without hesitation. < /p>
Fortunately, the two of them were prepared and immediately swung the pickaxe to hit the weak spots.
"Bang bang" Qi Zhen hit the ground insects with several swings. Although the clamping knife stopped the opponent's attack, it did not cause any real damage, which was enough to show that it was difficult to deal with. It immediately continued to attack without stopping, forming a clever balance with it.
But it was only temporary. Looking for an opportunity, either Qi Zhen smashes the Earth Worm's head first, or the Earth Worm sprays mud to slow down Qi Zhen's attack.
Qi Zhen's physical strength is limited, and the longer the stalemate is, the worse it will be for her, not to mention other things. The earthworm is trying hard to break through Xiao Jing's defense line and attack her.
