Chapter 236 Mechanical Ruins

Chen Shan said in surprise, "Su Mo, you're amazing! You could detect such a hidden monster. How did you do it?"

"It was nothing, just intuition."

Su Mo replied with a smile.

"But we didn't notice it at all."

Chen Shan still felt a bit incredulous.

Xiao Wen's heart was also surging beside him. Although he didn't speak, he was also very shocked.

Su Mo's strength had exceeded his understanding.

"Hey, can you guys not be so surprised all the time? This is just a small matter for Officer Su Mo, nothing to be surprised about. Actually, I also noticed it."

Mo Bake naturally started flattering.

"You noticed my ass. Everyone is sitting in their mechas, the scanning instruments were interfered with and didn't issue an alert, the visibility here is so poor, that bug has camouflage, and it's hiding in a recessed rock wall. What did you use to find it?"

Chen Shan couldn't help but complain about Mo Bake.

"Anyway, I just saw it."

Mo Bake made it up directly.

"Okay, stop arguing, everyone be careful."

Su Mo replied helplessly. In fact, he couldn't explain it himself, he just instinctively felt that there was an enemy there. From discovery to locking on to attacking, the series of actions were completed in one go, very natural like an instinct.

When everyone heard Su Mo's words, they stopped arguing and cheered up.

Su Mo controlled the Killing Blade to go down, chatting with the Creator·Devourer.

"Has my strength improved?"

"Compared to the beginning, it has naturally improved a lot, and you are starting to have combat instincts, which is a good thing. But it's still too weak. Real experts have combat nerve reflexes that are faster and more precise than yours!"

The Creator·Devourer answered in a low voice.

"Take it slow, no one is born an expert."

Su Mo was already very satisfied with the Creator·Devourer's evaluation.

Time passed little by little.

Su Mo and others kept going deeper into the insect nest. The passage they were walking on seemed to be the main passage, and there were no forks along the way.

However, they ran into a few scattered Scarlet Drake flying insects.

Before Xiao Wen and the others could take action, Su Mo, who was at the front, chopped them up in a few strokes.

"This nest is so deep, we've been going in for a while, right?"

Sun Duo Xiang felt more and more frightened.

"It's almost the end."

Su Mo estimated that it should be about the same, the insect queen's nest was just as deep back then.

When Sun Duo Xiang and the others heard Su Mo say this, they all gripped their weapons tightly, who knew if they would stir up a hornet's nest when they broke into the nest later.

"Look, there seems to be an exit ahead."

Mo Bake's eyes were very sharp and he found it, shouting nervously.

"Let's go!"

Su Mo took a deep breath and took the lead forward. It was only because he was driving a Tier III mecha that he needed to be so cautious. If he was driving the Gluttony mecha, he would have rushed in long ago.

Everyone followed with bated breath.

The moment Su Mo and the others walked out of the passage, the scene in front of them suddenly opened up.

Everyone was instantly shocked by the scene they saw.

They were inside a circular underground nest, and all kinds of wreckage were everywhere they looked. There were at least countless messy weapon wrecks here, including ship wrecks, mecha wrecks, and starfighter wrecks. At the same time, these weapons had been violently destroyed, and they were covered with all kinds of dark red mucus.

There were also scattered debris and the corpses of various monsters and humans scattered around.

Everything here should have been dragged in by the bugs.

There were a large number of small passages on the surrounding rock walls, and it was not known where they led.

In addition, there were a large number of residual scarlet insect eggs here, but these insect eggs looked very young.

In the central area, there was a giant pit, which seemed to have once been the nest of a certain creature.

At the same time, a rotten and foul smell rushed towards them, and the mechas of everyone were constantly popping up prompts, showing that toxic gases had been detected.

Sun Duo Xiang said excitedly, trembling, "I, I'm not mistaken, this is a mechanical ruins!"

"We're rich!"

Mo Bake said excitedly.

Chen Shan also had his mouth somewhat unable to close, saying, "God..."

Xiao Wen couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. Not to mention what mineral resources were in this nest, just looking at these mechanical wrecks, they knew they were super valuable, because the worst ones were Tier III quality.

It should be known that Tier III quality minerals are used to build Tier III mechas, and even the Federation doesn't have many of them now. Taking so many wrecks in front of them back to the furnace, who knew how many mechas could be made.

It would be difficult not to get rich.

After all, this planet had just been conquered, and no one had visited here before.

They would definitely be able to find many good things in the ruins.

At this moment, the voice of the Creator·Devourer suddenly sounded in Su Mo's mind.

"Go to the center of the nest, there is a piece of eternal metal there!"

Su Mo's heart was slightly startled. That was a Tier VI metal. Then he turned his head and said to everyone, "You guys stay here and don't move, I'll go take a look."

Before everyone could react, Su Mo controlled the Killing Blade and flew straight towards the center.

Along the way, he saw the broken warship parts and various bones. Su Mo felt more and more excited. This was really a natural treasure.

When Su Mo flew to the central area, his eyelids twitched.

At the bottom of the egg-laying pit where the Scarlet Drake insect queen was entrenched, there were blue crystal protrusions. It looked like it was a Tier III energy crystal.

Good fellow, the Scarlet Drake insect queen's nest was actually built on an energy crystal mine. Judging from the quantity, there seemed to be quite a few.

"I knew it, there must be energy crystals here."

Su Mo said with great joy.

"I know, send everyone out, I want to absorb this place."

The Creator·Devourer replied in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, we'll talk about this later, where is the eternal metal?"

Su Mo drove the mecha and landed on the insect queen's nest. The entire insect nest was surrounded by bones, and the nest was full of viscous red secretions. After the Killing Blade landed, both feet sank in a lot.

"It's right there."

The Creator·Devourer formed an image in Su Mo's eyes, directly locking onto that piece of eternal metal.

That piece of eternal metal was basically ninety percent submerged in the red secretion mucus, only a little bit of it was exposed. If it wasn't for the Creator·Devourer's reminder, he basically wouldn't have been able to see it.

"Is there any danger?"

Su Mo asked.

"No danger for now."

The Creator·Devourer replied.

"Forget it, I'd better be a bit more troublesome."

Su Mo then controlled the Killing Blade to squat down and reached out his right hand to grab the ground.

"You don't trust me?"

The Creator·Devourer questioned in a deep voice.

"Actually, I trusted you very much before, but now I need to reserve my opinion. You swore to me before that there were no energy crystals, didn't that slap you in the face?"

Su Mo teased the Creator·Devourer in a good mood.
