Chapter 40 Small Machine
Chapter 40 Small Machine
Given the conflict occurring within the area of the most vital underground lifeline—the mineral vein—one can imagine how anxious the subterranean fire would be.
Yunzhi led the three little ones into the mining area through some means, and learned many stories from the miners along the way.
The first thing to be affected is the "earth marrow" produced by the mineral veins. This is an important item for heating and the only legitimate channel for obtaining supplies from the upper layers.
It seems that only the Silvermane Iron Guards were withdrawn from the upper district; the others, although still being supplied, are in very small numbers.
It must be difficult to maintain daily life in this lower-class area.
As you follow the intricate path, you'll sometimes encounter battles.
When the people of the Earth Fire see them, they will come forward and ask them to leave. In such cases, just bring up Seele, or if all else fails, mention Sambo.
They had a relatively smooth journey; the homeless couldn't hurt them, and the fire didn't clash with them.
Upon venturing deeper into the mining area, a massive mineral deposit soon came into view.
On March 7th, someone exclaimed in surprise, "That mine is huge!"
"Hmm, it should be considered a livelihood for this lower-level area for the next thirty years," Yun said casually.
Hopefully, once the Star Core process is complete, no IOUs from the company will be found here.
Otherwise, none of us should live.
Although Yun's idea was very beautiful.
But reality is a little bit crueler than imagined.
As a highly skilled, natural-born master of rummaging through garbage cans, Xing ran off to the side and dug out a machine from a pile of ruins in the blink of an eye.
machine???
This machine looks familiar; it's somewhat like the antimatter legion's...baryon.
"Look, this thing should be useful, right?" Xing excitedly showed them the little machine gadget.
March 7th also excitedly joined in to watch.
"Is it already broken?" March 7th was a little disappointed after fiddling with it for a couple of turns.
Yun shook his head: "I think it shouldn't be there..." He seemed to see the logo of the Interstellar Peace Corporation on the robot's shell.
Before the words were even finished, the little robot sprang up as if a voice password had been entered correctly.
"Beep—Searching for possible users..."
"Beep—Voiceprint detected, searching for identity information corresponding to the voiceprint—Oh my god!!!"
The little robot suddenly let out a cry of surprise, startling the two girls so much that they both took a half step back.
Xing immediately pulled out her baseball bat and aimed it at the little robot.
Dan Heng pulled the still somewhat dazed March 7th behind him, and pointed his spear at the little robot.
To be honest, this scene is really... well, looking at the little robot's current state is quite embarrassing.
"Voiceprint detection, [Hunting] Envoy, Yun Zhi, oh my god, it's you???"
Why is his name in the voiceprint detection database for this robot?
"Huh? Why does this robot recognize him?"
March 7th was also surprised.
Dan Heng sighed: "It's definitely not technology from this planet. There's the logo of the Interstellar Peace Corporation on its shell."
Xing also went over to take a look.
Hmm, you should have seen this logo before...
The clouds look up at the sky.
Then he looked down at the little robot.
He seemed to hesitate for a moment.
Finally, he asked the question that had been bothering him for a long time, and which could now finally be confirmed:
"How much money does Bellauberg owe the company?"
"what?"
The three little ones were dumbfounded.
"Beep—Searching—Beep—Sorry, ChaBao does not have permission to search."
There is no best.
Yun took a deep breath and suppressed the countless zeros in her mind.
Looking at the little robot in front of him, Yunzhi knew that the company must have done business here. If they did business here, they must have done something here when the star core descended.
Destroy this place.
They absolutely cannot repay those capitalists.
Considering the behavior of those guys in the company, March 7th also realized that the amount of money Bellberg owed was probably astronomical.
She asked cautiously, "Um, Zhi, I remember the company has always regarded Yalilo-6 as a death star, right?"
Because of the Star Core, Yalilo-6 has long lost contact with the company. Even if it really owes money, it should just be a bad debt now.
The company can't possibly keep a Death Star IOU in the present.
"So, once the company finds out that there are still people on Yalilo-6, they will definitely come to collect the debt, unless we abandon the core."
The company probably won't go out of its way to confront Starcore head-on.
At this moment, Xing, who has a keen business sense, asked a rather sophisticated question:
"How much money is owed here? At the lowest possible interest rate?"
"ah......"
Yun's mind raced for a moment, then she used the most appropriate unit of measurement: "Even if you sold your mother hundreds of times, you still wouldn't be able to pay it back."
What was Kafka's bounty again? I think it was 10,899,000,000, right? That's a wanted poster from the Interstellar Peace Corporation. I think the Immortal Ship also has wanted posters for Star Core Hunters.
But the money Belloberg owes, plus interest and penalties... it's suffocating, absolutely suffocating.
Moreover, the interest rate is definitely monthly.
Xing fell silent.
It seems he is quite aware of his mother's value.
March 7th hissed, rubbing the goosebumps on his arms: "If this isn't paid off, what will the company do?"
Dan Heng is well-qualified to speak on this, having worked at the company for a period: "We'll probably build this place into the company's business planet. The success rate is over 50%, but there are also times when we fail."
Indeed, sometimes it's not because the company is incompetent.
Yun recalled something that happened a long time ago:
"He once shot down a planet in the company's business complex with an arrow, but by then, that planet had been infested by evil creatures for a long time, and the company was at a loss as to what to do about it."
There's really no way to destroy those celestial bodies.
What can we do now that things have turned out like that?
If there were still hope, Lan wouldn't have aimed directly at the target; his arrow would have grazed the edge of the celestial body, and then the Immortal Ship Alliance, which had been paying close attention to him, would naturally have followed the arrow to deal with it.
It's so good to have a home.
But most of the time, Lan prefers to solve the problem once and for all.
Look, he'd rather solve the problem once and for all than let the Immortal Boat Alliance suffer unnecessary sacrifices. I'm so upset.
"So, while the Yalilo-6 can indeed develop rapidly under the company, firstly, it loses its freedom, and secondly..."
Nanook's army invaded this place; what if Nanook suddenly had a whim and discovered that this planet, which hadn't been destroyed by the army, was thriving?
What will He do?
