"Understood, I understand!" The Supervisor agreed repeatedly. A mining cart, a large pot of water, a Safety Helmet, and a pig snout-style filter face mask, a set of mining equipment that looked very high-tech, and two boxes of self-heating vegetarian bento – these were all the necessary equipment for Manno Daisei to go down the Mine.
Entering and exiting the Mine could only be done by lying flat on the mining cart. Even so, his face was only three fists' distance from the rocks overhead.
The oppressive and suffocating atmosphere made Manno Daisei feel like he couldn't breathe.
The mining cart was automatic driving, and its Speed was not slow, but it still traveled for over ten minutes from the mine pit entrance.
The terrain along the way was all like this environment of gaps between mountain rocks, moving close to the Ground. Every few meters, Manno Daisei could see jacks and Steel Plates supporting the rock ceiling.
This gave his tense heart a little comfort, so he didn't have to worry about encountering a collapse and being buried alive.
Soon, the mining cart brought him to an open Mine. The Space here was large, and people could stand up completely. Lighting fixtures were installed on the mine ceiling, preventing this Mine from being too dark.
In this Mine, Manno Daisei also saw two patrolling Iron Robot.
In the Mine, everyone worked according to the areas designated by these two Iron Robot, mining and excavating. According to the Old Miner, the internal analysis program of these two Iron Robot could designate directions that would maximize the avoidance of collapse.
According to the person in charge of the Camp,
There were seven or eight Mine near the Camp. The Mine they entered was located deep within the Mountain Interior and was rich in rare gemstones. It had the harshest conditions among the several Mine.
However, it also had the best treatment, with an additional fifty thousand Japanese Yen subsidy each month. Those who dug up a large number of gemstones also received additional rewards. Ishikawa was in this mining area.
According to the demonstration by the Elder before entering the mine pit, Manno Daisei put on the mining equipment. It was like a back brace health product. He wore a hollowed-out metal arm over his right arm. At the end of the arm was a device integrating detection, excavation, and mining.
Buzzing!
Manno Daisei aimed the tip of the metal arm at the Ore rock layer, then pressed the Switch on his waist. The spikes at the end of the arm vibrated at high frequency, digging into the Rock Layer two to four or five centimeters like cutting tofu.
"Sugoi!"
Manno Daisei was somewhat amazed by the formidableness of this equipment. He looked left and right. At this moment, everyone was engaged in intense work. Thinking of his wife and children at home, Manno Daisei didn't dare to be negligent and quickly also immersed himself in mining.
The semi-automatic Mechanical Arm, supported by the Energy Source at his waist, excavated the rock wall like cutting tofu. However, perhaps because the number of gemstones in the ore layer was too scarce.
Manno Daisei dug for a full two hours, and he was almost suspecting if he had dug in the wrong place, when his detector's indicator light emitted red light, accompanied by the Beep Beep Beep of the Alarm Sound.
Manno Daisei lay on the Ground, scrabbling through the dug-out gravel powder, and finally found a Red Gemstone the size of a mung bean.
His Wrist Device silently recorded this scene and added it to the Database. "According to Red Queen's estimated yield analysis, the magic gemstone mine in the Mountain Interior can be mined for at most two more months. The quantity is very small, so there's no need to use explosives for violent mountain excavation. Yes, I understand! The smelted Metal Ingots will be transported back to the Warehouse tomorrow morning!"
Monroe hung up the Satellite Phone and said to Bernie, "The Pioneer group has opened up a new mining area using Yamata no Orochi. Boss Kane wants us to send fifty skilled workers over!"
"Skilled workers! There are only a few skilled workers in the entire mining area! Didn't you explain the situation clearly to Boss Kane!?"
"I did. Boss gave us a week's time for them to bring newcomers!"
"Those beasts from the Pioneer group, can't they let Yamata no Orochi rest for a few days!" Bernie complained.
Over 150 kilometers away from this Mine, in a Mountain Hollow, a huge glowing sphere rose into the Sky. Then, a huge figure on the Ground pounced towards the Darkness, chasing after the Artificial Sun flying up into the Sky, like a Child whose lollipop was taken away.
The rumbling sound of the giant creature collapsing mountain rocks grew farther and farther away in the Darkness... Not long after, a convoy of dozens of Buses and armed Trucks arrived at this Mine. The first to get off were a batch of Guards wearing Black Demon Battle Armor. They all wore the same style face masks as the Predator from back then. The infrared scanning instruments on the face masks made them like fish in water in the Darkness.
As for the batch of Guards who were not wearing face masks, they had all been injected with the latest type of low-light agent. Even in the Dark Heimdall, they all saw the night as daytime.
After they completed the Alert,
A large batch of Engineers and workers got off the vehicles and began building barracks and setting up the Camp according to the established plan. Under the rampage of Yamata no Orochi, the native creatures of this Mine had already fled from here. However, for safety's sake, over ten Iron Soldier were still escorting and protecting them in the Sky.
"According to this progress, in another half a year, our Mining Base can be expanded to twenty. However, the Mine must be connected. Our Manpower is too scarce, and these Mining Base are too far apart. Once attacked, it will be difficult for us to react in time!"
Inside the Camp leading to the Heimdall Space Gate, Kane looked at the Satellite Image, and the laser pointer in his hand lit up.
"Communication between the Mine must be ensured. Within half a year, at least six more Satellites must be launched. At the same time, add more outpost type small camps between the Mine, and increase the number of Artificial Suns!"
The Reason for the distance between the Mine being too far was to prevent Yamata no Orochi from being attracted by the Artificial Sun and attacking the mining camps.
Therefore, the landing points chosen for the Artificial Sun used by the Pioneer group to lure the snake were at least 100 kilometers away from their Mine, in areas with rich resources or where there were powerful magical beasts.
Everyone present was Government High-level Staff within the Tang Group, and they all understood Kane's position among the Big Boss individuals. They silently took notes.
"Dr. Otto, is there any difficulty in the manufacturing of Artificial Suns?"
Kane looked at Doctor Octopus and asked.
