Chapter 17: The Brave Warrior Fights the Evil Dragon

  ♂?,,

  Then, under the shouting of prison guards, two hundred prisoners began to go to the corner and select metal skeleton auxiliary equipment suitable for each other.

  As the head of the first prison cafeteria, Lin Fei didnt need to work and only came to the mining site for show. He didnt need to wear these auxiliary metal exoskeletons, but he also went forward to take a look at these old-fashioned metal exoskeletons.

  These metal skeletons that have been used for many years are rusty and have missing parts, some still with black blood clots, probably left behind by the unfortunate prisoner miners.

  As expected, the remote prisons mining site didnt provide these free laborers with any advanced auxiliary tools. The metal skeletons that had been used for decades were only there to enhance personal strength and increase excavation speed for these prisoners.

  More than ten minutes later, prisoners wearing auxiliary tools were transported to the underground mine under the batch arrangement of prison guards, taking excavation tools and starting to dig.

  Lin Fei followed the elevator down to the mine, wearing a hard hat, a quilted jacket and an oxygen mask on his face. The underground mining area was covered with high-power lighting systems, which were bright enough, but the smell was unpleasant. The temperature dropped instantly, compared to the scorching heat of the desert above ground, the underground cave made up of metal rods and rocks looked like a huge maze.

  The temperature in this huge underground crystal mine is as cold as a refrigerator.

  Underground mine, every few meters, a metal pillar for support is erected. In the grayish-black rock, fist-sized white energy stones are embedded. These white energy stones provide the unprocessed primary energy crystals needed for the power systems of mechs and warships.

  Lin Fei heard from the veteran prisoner beside him, who had experienced dozens of excavations, that in the next seven days, these prisoners would live and eat underground to dig out energy crystals in the cave.

  These fist-sized white energy crystals, ten of them can be exchanged for an apple or a cigarette. If you dig up blue energy crystals, one piece can be exchanged for a pack of cigarettes. If you dig up higher-grade black high-energy crystals, congratulations, just the size of a fingernail, one piece can be exchanged for a cigarette or two bottles of high-end wine.

  As for all the excavated energy crystals, after seven days from the underground cave, there will be special personnel to conduct statistics, according to size and energy capacity to calculate, back to prison, will exchange corresponding supplies.

  Lin Fei glanced at his fellow inmates who had started working with their tools, feeling a bit bored himself. As the prisons big brother, he didnt have to go work in the mines, and even if he didnt do any work, his underlings would still show him respect by giving him some crystal stones. His status as the top dog, earned through fighting, meant that no inmate dared to openly offend him.

  Since he came, Lin Fei also went to the corner of the cave and put on a set of old metal auxiliary skeleton that was still usable. He then carried a small drill machine on his shoulder and began digging in the cave, putting the white energy crystal stones he dug up into a small backpack attached to the metal skeleton.

  After digging for half a day, Lin Fei found that this was also a technical job. He only gained four small white energy crystals, while the old prisoners who came frequently had already gained more than ten white crystals. As for other high-level energy crystals of different colors, except for experience, most relied on luck.

  As the eldest of the First Canteen, Lin Fei didnt lack those supplies anyway. So, Su Xing took off his auxiliary metal exoskeleton and jumped onto the creaky elevator to go up to the mining area above to get some fresh air.

  After getting out of the mining cave through the elevator, it was already night. The desert at night is very cold, and the temperature is lower than that in the underground cave.

  Lin Fei saw two prison guards holding energy guns sitting on a rock at the exit of the elevator, guarding the night.

  As someones shadow emerged from the elevator of the underground cave, both prison guards aimed their guns at the gate of the elevator. "Its me, Lin Fei, I came up to find a place to sleep." Lin Fei said, throwing each of the two prison guards a cigarette.

  The prison guard who had been transporting vehicles on the way here was already familiar with Lin Fei, and didnt make things difficult for him as a prisoner.

  According to the rules, ordinary prisoners can only eat and live in underground caves for seven days, but as a prisoner, Lin Fei is an exception. The two prison guards turn a blind eye to him, as long as he doesnt break any rules, they dont want to provoke this human tyrant.

  Lin Fei followed the direction of two prison guards fingers, found an unoccupied simple windbreak small wooden house, and after digging in the mine for half a day, Lin Fei fell asleep directly on the metal bed in the small wooden house.

  ---

  For the next five days, Lin Fei would go dig for crystal ore when he felt like moving around, and come back to rest or wander in the empty mining area when he didnt feel like it.

  On the sixth day, Lin Fei sat on a rock at the entrance of the mine pit, gazing idly at the metal structure of the surrounding mining area, thinking that with only two days left, everything would go smoothly. However, he suddenly heard a series of panicked cries coming from the underground tunnels:

  "Oh no, help! A huge snake."

  "Dragon, black dragon."

  "Dragon spitting fire, oh my god, save me."

  The underground cave suddenly sent out the cries for help from the prisoners, accompanied by screams, and thick smoke also emerged from the entrance of the underground cave.

  The guards around were startled and immediately took up their guns, some went to control the energy turrets, all aiming at the exit of the underground elevator.

  The "boom" of explosions and impacts kept coming from underground, making every prison guard sweat, facing the unknown monster, these guards were not stupid enough to jump into the underground cave, risking their own lives for that little salary.

  Its unclear whether it was due to the fierce competition among the underground prisoners or the terrifying strength of the suddenly appearing monster, but none of the prisoners in the underground cave were able to successfully activate the elevator to come up. However, the cries for help and wails grew louder and louder.

  Lin Fei was fortunate that he wasnt in the underground cave, just as he was about to move away from the elevator exit and hide at the energy cannon platform of the mining area, the voice of the War God System in his mind appeared again.

  "An unknown dragon-like creature was discovered in an underground mine shaft. It has been identified as a variant of the Sand Wyrm, with a danger level of 177 and a scene conformity rate of 81%."
