A more violent explosion sounded instantly.
This time the explosion was more powerful than before, because the detonator and explosives that exploded along with the other detonators and explosives that the miners were carrying were also detonated.
The resulting force was so powerful that the entire mine began to shake violently, as if the ground was shaking. It was extremely frightening, and a large amount of dust fell on my head, and a vague feeling of uneasiness swept over me.
Damn...
This mine is about to collapse!
Thinking of this, everyone's hearts jumped up to their throats, and some looked up expectantly, hoping that the mine would not collapse.
After all, if a mine collapses at this depth, it is basically impossible to rescue them. The crushed soil will instantly extinguish all the air in the mine, and they will all die from lack of oxygen and suffocation!
But fortunately,
Although the detonator explosion just now was extremely powerful,
However, the quality of the wooden frame of the mine was barely acceptable. Only dust was scattered, and there was no large amount of soil and rubble falling, so there was no landslide. They were lucky.
However, this also indirectly reminded Javier that he no longer dared to use bullets to explode the detonator explosives.
This is different from the ground. If the miners carry too much detonators and explosives, they may accidentally detonate and cause the mine to collapse.
Therefore,
Javier must be more careful next time. He can't just blindly shoot the detonator and explosives. This is not a good idea...
"Fortunately, it almost collapsed."
"We can't stay here any longer. If we stay here, the entire mine may collapse at any time. We must quickly get rid of these miners and villagers in front of us and rush to resist the next stage of the mine."
The aftermath of the explosion slowly dissipated.
The merchant, Leon and others slowly stood up from the ground, thinking back to what had just happened, and hurriedly analyzed,
If another bomber miner comes, the mine will probably collapse. They have to move on quickly now and cannot stay here any longer.
Then,
With the unanimous decision of all,
Javier, the businessman, and Ada formed the assault team, Leon and Louis were the left and right guards to protect Ashley, and the little white wolf became a close bodyguard and followed closely behind Ashley, the daughter of the president, and they advanced one after another in an iron bucket formation.
He quickly broke through this stage of the mine and continued to move forward quickly into the depths, ignoring all the miners and villagers he met on the way.
If they didn't deliberately stop them, they would basically choose to ignore them and continue to move deeper into the mine.
but,
As several people went deeper and deeper,
The changes in the infected by the Plaka parasite are becoming more and more serious, and even the Baneling has a new posture.
The Plaka parasite infected person whose head exploded after being attacked before, in addition to the tentacle sickles, the most common things emerging from his neck were turbellarians with large suckers and gatekeeper ants.
But just now,
On a miner killed by Javier,
But suddenly a new form appeared. No... to be more precise, it should be the real body of the Plaka parasite.
The parasitic puppet body did not change at all, but the parasitic Plaka parasite broke free from the back of the spine.
It was like a giant white spider, very similar to the group on the flag of the Church of Light, which quickly and actively fell off from the back and attacked Javier and his men.
They are very fast, like ghosts, and use their front teeth and tentacles to stab and attack.
If you can,
They will quickly cut open the skin and muscles of their prey and quickly parasitize them. They are very strange creatures.
And the way it voluntarily separated from its host looked a bit like a Gundam pilot escaping from his cabin. I can only say... it really is a parasite.
but,
Having said that,
But essentially, because it is separated from the host,
Although the main bodies of these Plaka parasites are very fast, their defense is very weak. Basically, they can be killed by two shots to the body and one shot to the head.
Basically, there is no need to worry. They are not a kind of enhanced creatures, but a sacrificial gesture made by the Plaka parasites in order to survive.
"Ta Tata..."
"Ta Tata..."
And keep moving forward,
At this moment, everyone slowly discovered the changes in the mine. The tunnel of the entire mine became larger and larger, and the route also changed, just like an ant nest.
There were many roads leading to all directions. At the beginning, there was only one mine tunnel, but later there were many forks in the road, making it difficult for everyone to choose.
But fortunately, there was Louis, the guide, who did not let everyone get lost.
"This underground mine is really amazing,"
"Even the mine tunnels dug underground in the United States are not that complicated. After all, other mines are only used to find mineral veins, but the mine tunnels in front of us seem to avoid the mineral veins and are dug randomly just to find something."
Recalling the densely packed forks in the road just now, Leon seemed a little surprised, and couldn't help but muttered while looking at the mine in front of him,
After all, this was the first time he had seen such a complicated and chaotic mine tunnel. It was like an ant entering a complicated ant nest. It was a proper ecological environment, not for prospecting for minerals.
"In a sense, this is not for mining,"
"Although there are some basic coal mines inside, Raymond and Sadler's purpose at the beginning was not these things. The coal mines were just used to cover up their tracks. After all, it was where the fossils of the Plaka parasite were hidden, and they came to dig for fossils."
"That's why there are so many densely packed tunnels, and finding the rare Plaka parasite fossils requires this kind of frantic excavation,"
Facing Leon's doubts, the businessman next to him slowly squatted down, picked up a piece of coal on the ground and explained to him lightly,
"but……"
"Since there are so many mine tunnels ahead, it means that we are slowly getting deeper into the central area. This is actually a good thing. After all, when we get to this place, we usually have transportation that allows us to get rid of the need to walk."
"I'm here, look... that thing, a railroad minecart! But it's not used to carry the coal and fossils we've dug up, but to carry us. After all, if we really want to walk, it will take a long time!"
While helping Leon resolve his doubts,
The businessman slowly raised his head, and as his cloudy eyes looked at the increasing number of mine tunnels ahead, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl slightly, and he continued to make that hoarse hehehe laugh, pointing at the special means of transportation ahead and saying,
This is the long-awaited underground transportation...
Not the tram or subway,
It's a minecart.
It also needs rails to fix the route, but its structure is very simple. It only needs four wheels, a sturdy iron basket, and a handle at the front for braking and turning.
In addition to helping miners transport ore and excavated soil and gravel, these rail mine cars are also very good means of transportation. They can basically carry miners unimpeded in the mines.
And now... Javier and his friends were planning to have a mine cart adventure in the mine tunnel, letting the mine cart carry them deeper into the center, which would save a lot of time.
It can also greatly avoid contact with some miners infected. After all, they are here to help Ashley remove the Plaka parasites, not to fight specifically -
Chapter 82 The Second Black Gold Business Card
Everyone slowly approached the rail mine car.
There were no miners or infected villagers around, but think about it, although the task of digging the mine was important,
But it was impossible to meet people everywhere in such a huge mine. After all, if they could meet people here, Javier and others would not be able to imagine how widely Sadler's personnel were spread out.
"..."
"You guys get on the mine carts first, I'll push them..."
Looking at the railroad mine carts in front of them, Javier quickly greeted everyone and said that there were enough mine carts in front of them. There were three of them, and each mine cart could accommodate two people. They had exactly six people, which was just right.
The crowd did not hesitate and jumped into the minecart. The first group was Leon and Ashley. As a guardian knight, he naturally needed to protect the princess closely.
The merchant and Louis came next. Although Louis wanted to express his dissatisfaction, he had no choice. Ada, the only one left, did not want to be in the same group with Louis, who was a chatterbox.
Even though Louis raised his hands to protest, Ada remained unmoved with her hands folded, and even looked at him coldly, just watching Louis' performance quietly.
Without any choice,
Louis had no choice but to jump on the mine cart and ride on a rail mine cart with the merchant who could only laugh weirdly. Looking at the merchant's cloudy and bloodshot eyes, to be honest, Louis was really afraid that the merchant would be controlled by the Plaka parasite halfway through the journey.
In that case, he would be completely finished. There was no place to escape, and they were so close, it was almost certain death. He couldn't jump out of the car, it seemed that he would only die more miserably.
Finally, there is Ada.
After carrying the little white wolf onto the mine cart, Ada lifted up her bright red patterned cheongsam and gently jumped into the mine cart. Although it was covered with some dust,
But at this moment, she couldn't care less. After all, she didn't even have time to wipe off the soot on her pretty face.
"Hold on tight, I'm going to start pushing...!"
Seeing that everyone was ready,
Javier used all his strength to slowly push the mine cart with both hands. There are generally three ways for mine carts to operate. One is to rely on electricity, like a tram, through the cables on the top. The second is manpower, through the double rocker to exert force independently, just like a seesaw. The third is simply relying on the curvature of the rails.
The rails are designed to be downhill, allowing the mine carts to slide down on their own. With just a little push, the subsequent mine carts can continue to move forward relying on their own weight and acceleration.
The mine cart that Javier and the others were riding in was obviously not powered by electricity or manpower, but simply relied on the rails to accelerate downhill.
"Click..."
"brake--!!!"
The sound of wheels rubbing against the rails slowly began to sound.
With Javier's desperate efforts, the three railcars slowly moved forward, and finally began to move slowly, and continued to accelerate at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"It's already started to move,"
"But then again, Leon, how do you brake this thing? It's not going to crash into the wall!"
Ashley, who was sitting in the same mine car with Leon, looked a little surprised as she watched the mine car gradually speed up. Although she had learned the technology of excavators at Shandong Lanxiang Technical School, she had never seen a mine cave or a mine car, so she was very curious.
"It's not that exaggerated,"
"There are two levers in front, one for turning and the other for braking. By squeezing the iron wheel to stop sliding, the mine cart will slowly stop in front. You just need to brake in advance. After all, they are not as sensitive as car brakes."
And hearing Ashley's curious question,
Leon also patiently pointed to the two levers at the front of the mine cart and explained that the mine cart needed to brake a certain distance in advance.
About 20 to 50 meters in advance. After all, the minecart relies on its own gravity to accelerate, so the brakes will not be so timely.
If you pull the lever when you are almost at the end, the mine cart may crash into the wall of the mine.
"..."
"Go, Sancho!"
And at this moment,
Louis also said his famous quote, raised his M16 assault rifle high and shouted loudly, and the entire rail mine car suddenly accelerated and fell into a downhill slope.
He began to sprint at an incredibly fast speed, and Louis began to gallop wantonly like a knight on a warhorse.
"Now it's our turn. Sit tight, Ms. Ada. The Akina Mountain Old Driver is about to start..."
After sending Louis away, Javier also pushed the last railroad mine cart with all his strength. Ada, who was sitting on it, glanced at Javier and shook her head helplessly. It was just a railroad mine cart. Why were they so childish? Did this thing need to be controlled?
"Click, click, click..."
As the mine cart slowly moved forward, the last rail mine cart also operated successfully. Javier quickly jumped onto the mine cart and squeezed in with Ada.
Three rail mine carts were speeding along the downhill section. The surrounding scene was rapidly receding, and the mine carts continued to move forward at a good speed.
Now,
Everyone is back on track...
"The mission is almost over,"
"So, what do you think after finishing this order? Are you interested in cooperating with me again? The reward is very generous, not much worse than Wesker's. Miss Ada, would you like to consider it?"
As the mine cart slowly moved forward, there were no miners or infected villagers blocking the way, so it was a leisurely time.
Out of boredom, Javier asked Ada beside him in a calm tone, trying to find out the next opportunity for cooperation -
