Star Farming, the eldest lady relies on alchemy to counterattack

Chapter 114 Night Attack
Although except for Lin Mo and Chen Nan, the other three are all Ying Yaoshi's subordinates, but in Ning Xuan's opinion, they have no direct subordinate relationship with her. They still have to travel together for some time, so it is better to make the rules clear to avoid confusion when encountering problems.

The three of them came to protect Ning Xuan, so they naturally would not refute what Ning Xuan said.

They even felt that working under Miss Ning was safer than their previous positions, with better pay and treatment. Although Miss Ning was young, she had great medical skills and was generous in using medicine on her own people.

They chose this place as their temporary residence because they had just eliminated seven golden-scaled beasts. The area should be safe for the time being. However, it was cleaned up in a hurry after all. At night, except Ning Xuan, the other five people took turns to keep watch.

Ning Xuan lived in the largest of the seven caves. The cave had been carefully cleaned by a housekeeping robot. She smelled the familiar floral scent coming from the stone wall, which was the smell of incense she liked on weekdays. The furnishings in the cave were the same as her previous stay. There were four warm jade screens in the center, and a large bed inside the screens. Ning Xuan smiled at the arrangement. It was indeed convenient to have a space button. Chen Nan actually brought this bed here.

This place is of course much simpler than the elaborately decorated cave in Wuyin Gorge, but after cleaning, it is dry and tidy. Ning Xuan also dug a lot of minerals today and felt a little tired. She rolled around on the big bed and invited Chen Nan to come to the bed to rest together.

Outside the valley, Su He switched his tactical goggles to night vision mode. The surrounding trees glowed white against the pale green field of view. He deployed a dozen palm-sized reconnaissance robots in all directions. These were brought by Major General Leng from the interstellar battlefield. They were said to be able to detect abnormal energy fluctuations within a thousand meters.

Three hours later, it was Zhao Qiu's turn to take over. During the handover, Su He informed Zhao Qiu of the previous arrangements. Zhao Qiu listened carefully. Su He also found that Zhao Qiu had a can of refreshing spray in his hand, which had a citrus scent mixed with the scent of military stimulants.

It was already late at night during the second hour of his shift. Zhao Qiu felt very sleepy, so he turned on the energy spray and pressed it on his face. It felt like a piece of ice was slapped on his face, cold and painful. He was still a little sleepy, but he woke up instantly.

The dozens of reconnaissance robots released were all equipped with biological detectors. At this time, the circular light curtain fed back by the reconnaissance robots cast ripples on the ground, and thirteen green light spots were stably distributed in the area outside the valley.

Zhao Qiu was instantly horrified. The green spots of light represented living creatures. Were they humans or strange beasts?
Zhao Qiu really wanted to get closer to take a look, but Ning Xuan had said when arranging the shifts that if you find anything unusual, don't shout or rush over blindly unless it's an emergency. Tell everyone the news first, and then work together to find a solution.

Zhao Qiu immediately entered the valley as agreed and told Ning Xuan and others the news that biological signals had appeared outside the valley.

Ning Xuan had just fallen asleep with Chen Nan in her arms, her eyes a little hazy. She was startled awake by the news Zhao Qiu brought. As her slender fingertips brushed across a certain dot of light, a sneer crossed her face. "Guess, are these green dots human or beast?"

Leng Yue looked at the 13 green dots, which were evenly distributed outside the valley, blocking all exits in every direction of the valley.

"It must be a human. The monsters wouldn't arrange their positions so perfectly." Leng Yue said.

Others had no objections.

"If it were people, they'd most likely have targeted us while we were mining," Ning Xuan said calmly. "Miss Ning, you're saying they've been targeting us for a while, but didn't choose to strike during the day. They waited for us to finish our work and let our guard down at night before attacking us," Leng Yue asked.

Leng Yue's analysis was reasonable and everyone agreed with his reasoning.

"They want to play the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Let's have some fun with them." Ning Xuan took out a box full of weapons from the space button, and then took out six walnut-sized metal balls from the box. The patterns on the surface of the spheres glowed like fireflies in the dark. She threw the metal balls out casually, and the metal balls disappeared.

Then Zhao Qiu will be asked to set up lightning ropes and other defensive facilities. Judging from the images sent back by the reconnaissance robot, the 13 green light spots are still motionless and look very patient.

About another hour later, at one o'clock in the morning, when people were in the deepest sleep, the thirteen spots of light began to move. Judging from the images, they were gradually shrinking the encirclement.

The leader's helmet reflected the outline of the valley, and the night vision goggles reflected all visible objects in his sight. Although he thought he was very patient, he still couldn't help but feel excited when he thought about the rewards after the task was completed.

Although the young lady was a good person and a precious controller, he could not care less in the face of such overwhelming wealth.

After narrowing the encirclement, the thirteen people gathered at the entrance of the valley. With the help of night vision goggles, Lin Mo, who was hiding in the dark, discovered that the leader was Zhou Yi, who had been following Tang Xue during the day.

Although this location is very remote and hidden, since Tang Xue and her group appeared here and fought with the golden-scaled beast, it is very likely that she did not encounter the golden-scaled beast by accident, but found it based on accurate clues.

If this is the case, it is normal for them to linger nearby and refuse to leave after escaping danger.

Zhou Yi led the team into the valley. As soon as they entered, they stepped into the minefield set up by Ning Xuan. A rumbling explosion sounded, and in an instant, the shock wave of the explosion spread in all directions, and gravel flew like a rainstorm.

Zhou Yi and the twelve people behind him activated the shield at the same time, and thirteen electromagnetic barriers connected into a light curtain at the entrance of the valley.

"Boom!" Ning Xuan's voice was heard, and the next second a blazing white beam of light tore through the night sky.

After the initial test, the two sides soon fought together. Zhou Yi chose this time period to attack, thinking that Ning Xuan and the others would be unprepared, but he did not expect that Ning Xuan had already set a trap and was waiting for them.

When they just crossed the minefield, half of their people were injured. The injured people were afraid of being invaded by evil spirits and did not dare to fight at all. On the other hand, Ning Xuan was completely fearless in the battle and fought with a reckless attitude.
