Chapter 300 Change of Strategy

At this moment, in the distant starry sky, Xia Weiya and Loren were frantically fleeing.

Their hearts were constantly tense, ready to fight at any moment.

However, as time passed, they realized that the Everlasting Sleepers were not chasing them.

"What's going on? Why haven't those guys caught up? That doesn't make sense! Normally, they should have chased us by now, right?"

Loren turned his head to look back, but for some reason, he couldn't see any sign of the Everlasting Sleeper forces.

Xia Weiya was also very puzzled, her expression changing for a moment.

"That's strange, they were biting so hard before. There's no reason for them to give up."

"So, what do we do now?"

Loren asked in a deep voice.

Xia Weiya's expression continued to shift, and she finally said, "I don't know what kind of tricks the enemy is playing, but at least we're a little safer now. But we still can't relax. Let's continue to escape for a while, completely shake them off, and then find a way to return to Star Ring City."

"Okay!"

Loren replied in a deep voice.

---------------------

More than ten days later, the legendary-class Star Destroyer Immortal Blade, carrying the Blue Whale, pierced through the thick clouds and slowly descended towards the mining area.

Inside the command room, Su Mo breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the safe and sound mining area.

To be honest, his heart had been hanging the whole way. Although, from a probabilistic point of view, the chances of Xiao Wen and the others being discovered by the Everlasting Sleepers were not high, he was afraid of any accidents.

At this time, inside the mining area, Xiao Wen and Chen Shan saw the return of the Immortal Blade, and they controlled their mechas to fly towards it.

Before long, the two entered the command room.

"How's the mining going? Did you encounter any trouble?"

Su Mo asked in a good mood.

"No, the mining has been very smooth. There are just too many resources excavated this time. I was just about to report the situation to you."

Xiao Wen raised his electronic bracelet and operated it, bringing up a virtual file and said to Su Mo.

"You've worked hard. Tell me..."

Su Mo nodded in response.

"I found a total of 260 different kinds of minerals in this mining area, with varying contents. The most abundant is the Level 5 rare mineral, Mo Lin ore..."

Xiao Wen reported to Su Mo in an orderly manner.

Su Mo listened very carefully to Xiao Wen's report.

At this time, Sun Duo Xiang, who was standing on the side, felt bored after listening for a while.

Then he glanced at Chen Shan and quietly moved over.

"Hey ~ Old Chen!"

"What's up!"

Chen Shan also looked at Sun Duo Xiang with a puzzled expression.

"I'm telling you, you guys missed out on too much by not going to Valley of the Gods with us this time."

"Missed out on what?"

Chen Shan was immediately intrigued by Sun Duo Xiang's suspense.

"A bunch of super good stuff, we made a fortune, you know?"

Sun Duo Xiang said excitedly.

"Tch, making a fortune is just making a fortune. What's the big deal? Can making any amount of money compare to the Everlasting Sleeper's reserves?"

"It's no fun to talk like that, but let me tell you, the benefits are not worse than that, maybe even better."

"Really?"

"Of course, it's true. We got a lot of mechas, and the boss left a share for you guys too."

Sun Duo Xiang said with a smile.

"I knew it, there must be a share for us. Actually, it doesn't matter whether we go exploring or not."

Chen Shan replied in a good mood.

Then Sun Duo Xiang poked Chen Shan with his arm and said mysteriously, "I'll tell you another super explosive thing."

"Tell me about it."

Chen Shan asked curiously.

"Do you know who we ran into on the way back?"

"Can you just say it all at once? Don't just say half a sentence!"

"Hehe, don't worry! I'm telling you, on the way back, we ran into a large force of Everlasting Sleepers, as well as four Vice Patriarchs!"

Sun Duo Xiang said with a wink.

When Chen Shan heard Sun Duo Xiang's words, his whole body froze in place, and he looked at Sun Duo Xiang suspiciously.

"Are you kidding me? Ran into an Everlasting Sleeper force and four Vice Patriarchs?"

"What are you talking about? Everything I said is true."

Sun Duo Xiang replied righteously.

"Was the loss serious then? Did you barely manage to escape by cutting off an arm?"

"Look at what you're saying, is it possible for us to escape? Of course, we fought them head-on!"

"I'm listening to you brag. Four Vice Patriarchs! It's not that I don't believe in the boss's strength, but do you know what four means? If you really fought them head-on, you would still be able to stand here intact?"

Chen Shan's expression was a little strained, and he felt that Sun Duo Xiang was just bragging.

"You're underestimating us. I'm telling you, you didn't see the scene. When they saw us, they were like seeing a ghost, and they didn't even dare to fight us. If they hadn't run fast, we would have broken their legs. It's a pity the boss didn't let us chase, otherwise we would definitely have been able to leave a few of them behind."

Sun Duo Xiang replied with a look of regret.

"Really? Can you draft your bragging a little?"

Chen Shan replied with a look of disdain.

"It's absolutely true, why would I lie to you? You can ask anyone! Everyone can prove it."

Sun Duo Xiang said confidently.

At this time, Chen Shan saw that Sun Duo Xiang didn't seem to be joking, and was immediately shocked, with an unbelievable look on his face.

At this time, Su Mo, who had finished listening to Xiao Wen's report, heard Sun Duo Xiang bragging to Chen Shan, so he walked behind him and knocked him on the head.

"Ouch! Ah! Boss, why are you hitting me?"

Sun Duo Xiang covered his head and turned his head back. Seeing that Su Mo had hit him, he said with a bitter face.

"Don't talk nonsense for no reason. None of the Everlasting Sleeper Vice Patriarchs are pushovers. That's right, if so many of us really went up there with our lives on the line, we would definitely be able to leave the other side behind. But Sun Duo Xiang, you have to understand one thing, you and everyone present are not just my subordinates, but also my brothers and sisters. We are all relatives who have experienced countless life-and-death battles. Any of your casualties are a huge loss to me. Even if it's one-for-one with an Everlasting Sleeper Vice Patriarch, I wouldn't be willing to exchange it, because for me, you are irreplaceable."

Su Mo said in a deep voice.

"Boss, I understand."

Sun Duo Xiang was also very moved after hearing Su Mo's words.

Everyone present, whether it was Kennedy or Chen Shan, all felt warm inside. Su Mo sincerely valued these brothers.

"It's good that you understand. Let's not talk about those things. It's not a good thing for the Everlasting Sleeper forces to appear near the Zero Zone. I have a feeling that it's not safe to continue digging. Let's stop mining for now and prepare to return to Star Ring City!"

Su Mo thought for a while and then made a decision.

"Then what about this mining area? There's still a lot left to mine?"

Chen Shan asked with some regret.

"The mining area is fine. We'll withdraw for a while, and it will freeze over again, so it will be harder for the enemy to find it, and Little Blue is watching over it. Besides, let's take the gains back first. Heart of Forbidden Prison is probably waiting to use it. We'll come back and continue mining when the situation is more stable."

Su Mo thought for a while and explained.
