Chapter 432 – Latching Onto Me?
TL : GoldenLung
“It’s you?” If Lan Xuanyu couldn’t tell, his brain might as well be useless.
“En.” Dong Qianqiu blushed. “I was just thinking of saving you back then.”
Lan Xuanyu turned his head to look at her in surprise. Through the protective helmet, he looked at her charming face and his heart stirred.
“Why aren’t you saying anything? Didn’t you say you wanted to thank me? You want to go back on your words?” Dong Qianqiu nudged him.
Lan Xuanyu smiled. “I won’t thank you.”
“Why?” Dong Qianqiu was a little exasperated, especially when she thought about how worried she was about this guy and how she was so anxious that she was about to cry. She was furious. ‘Can’t this guy even say something nice?’
“You saved me, which is equivalent to letting me live once again. Then my life is naturally yours now. In other words, I am yours from now on. If I am already yours, what is there to thank for? You can do whatever you want,” Lan Xuanyu said matter-of-factly.
Dong Qianqiu stared at him in shock. It could also work like this ?
“Are you trying to latch onto me?” Dong Qianqiu snapped.
“Exactly ! Who asked you to save me?” Lan Xuanyu nudged her.
Dong Qianqiu turned her head away. “Go away, I regret it.”
“It’s too late to regret! You’ve already saved me. I’ll latch onto you from now on.” Lan Xuanyu quietly pulled her hand.
Dong Qianqiu’s body trembled. She suddenly felt that her heart was beating extremely fast and wanted to pull her hand out, but Lan Xuanyu still held her hand tightly. “Don’t hide. We’re together in life and death, so we can hold hands, right? We’re still young, don’t overthink it. Look at you, why are your thoughts so complicated?”
“Lan Xuanyu!” Dong Qianqiu swung her elbow back, causing Lan Xuanyu to groan and grin. But he didn’t let go of her hand.
Both of them fell silent. After a long while, Dong Qianqiu finally spoke softly, “Were you afraid ?”
“Of course I was ! It was quite frightening. I don’t want to die either! I really didn’t expect that everyone would disregard everything to save me. Really, I was very touched at that time.”
Dong Qianqiu said, “You can’t always be the only one sacrificing yourself for us! You’re our captain, so of course everyone has to save you.”
“En, we’re really like a team now. I feel very lucky to have met you guys,” Lan Xuanyu said sincerely.
Dong Qianqiu smiled. “Everyone feels the same.”
“Let’s take a break. We still have to continue later.”
Not long after, Tang Yuge returned. About 100 meters away from where they were, there was a metal mine. Another 100 meters away, there was another metal mine. It wasn’t too far away.
At this moment, perhaps because it could no longer feel their presence, the metal storm outside had weakened.
Tang Yuge and Lan Xuanyu discussed for a moment and decided to dig a hole above the metal mine, one large enough to accommodate everyone and s.p.a.ce to dig. It was just a 100-meter distance, and no matter how fast the metal storm would come, they had enough time to run over. It would save them the time of digging a tunnel underground.
Half an hour later, everyone started digging for rare metals. This time, everyone felt completely different from before. This was an opportunity that they had risked their lives for! No one complained about being tired as they dug ferociously.
The two types of metals produced here were both very valuable. This was after all a place where metal spirits could be born, and the metal elements here were extremely abundant. Compared to the ring-shaped mountain range, the metal mine here had a higher purity and better quality. The two types of rare metals were known as mithril, which was a lot more precious than essence metal and the strongest in terms of soul power conductivity. They were much more precious than refined metals and had extremely strong soul power conductivity. They were the most suitable for various key components of a core’s soul array. For example, a large wars.h.i.+p’s core’s soul array was made of mithril. They were the most important, precious, and scarce type of rare metals.
The other type of rare metal was also very impressive, called geng metal. Geng metal was one of the top three rare metals in terms of toughness. It was often used to forge offensive soul devices, especially physical attacks. Whether it was for making mechas or Battle Armors, it was a very good type of metal. It wasn’t as valuable as mithril, but it was also very rare. The key was that the geng metal’s quality here was simply too good.
Even without forging, Lan Xuanyu felt that the geng metal ore he excavated was as pure as a Hundred Refined metal. If he could forge such a piece of geng metal, he felt that it would definitely be of excellent quality, and a high purity also meant a high value !
A piece of geng metal the size of a fist weighed over ten kilograms, but the size of the ore was much larger. Their storage bracelet stored objects according to the size, and the denser the metal, the more suitable it was for storage.
After weighing the two metals, he couldn’t bear to lose either of them and decided to split their time equally.
With her Five Elements Escape Technique, Tang Yuge a.s.sisted everyone in excavating and their efficiency increased.
Two caves were dug on two different sides at the same time. 25 hours before the end of the test, their storage device was already fully filled up.
“Xuanyu, what should we do? Should we go back or what? It’s a bit of a loss!” Bing Tianliang had an unsatisfied look on his face. Although he wasn’t proficient in digging, he was proficient at destroying ! Previously, he had gone into a hole and exploded everything, almost burying himself alive, but a lot of ores were excavated.
Lan Xuanyu was somewhat helpless. “Although I can purify them through forging, with so many ores, I can’t purify much. At most, we can get a little bit more.”
“What a pity! Such a good mithril and geng metal mine and we still have 15 hours to mine.” Bing Tianliang had an unwilling look on his face. He wasn’t the only one; everyone had the same thought.
“I actually still have some storage s.p.a.ce here.” Just at this moment, Tang Yuge suddenly spoke up.
“En?” Everyone’s eyes immediately focused on her.
Tang Yuge raised her hand and took off her gloves. She had a ring on her finger with a faint silver gem embedded on it.
“Everyone, stand back.”
As a large amount of ores had been excavated, there was a lot of s.p.a.ce in the cave.
Everyone retreated and looked at her curiously. A silver light flashed on Tang Yuge’s ring and under everyone’s stunned gazes, a purple mecha appeared before them.
Mecha! That’s right, the mecha that Tang Yuge had released was actually a mecha. This mecha wasn’t too big, only about three meters tall and was completely purple.
The ranks of mechas were about the same as soul rings. The lowest ranked training mechas were white, the military standard mechas were yellow, and the higher ranked mechas were purple. Further up were the top-notch black mechas and the highest ranked G.o.d-cla.s.s mechas.
This was everything Lan Xuanyu and his team knew about mechas. It was said that only G.o.d-cla.s.s mechas and above had the right to change the color of their paint. Otherwise, they would apply the color corresponding to their rank.
Who would have thought that Tang Yuge actually carried a purple mecha with her. More importantly, it had appeared from her storage ring, which meant that she had a soul storage ring able to accommodate a mecha. This was not just five cubic meters, right? Although the mecha before her was not big, a s.p.a.ce of five mere cubic meters could definitely store it. It had to be at least twice as big.
Tang Yuge said indifferently, “During the third year, we officially started the Duo Mecha cla.s.ses. For a true Duo Mecha Master, the smaller the mecha, the better it is. For the same rank, the smaller the mecha, the higher its price is because it requires higher-end technology to make. A small size means flexibility, and it will be better coordinated with one’s Battle Armor.”
