Space Survival: My Teammates Are All Top-Tier

Jiang Shi bent down, rubbed the little guy's head, forced a smile, and picked him up:

"Yes, of course I want Xiaoxiao!"

The little golden dragon on his shoulder was startled by the sudden appearance of the small face and twisted its body to fly a little higher.

Curious, it looked down at the human cub.

"Huh~"

Wang Xiaoxiao's attention was immediately drawn; she excitedly watched the two floating baby dragons in Jiang Shi's arms.

"Big brother, are those two dragons? They're so beautiful! Golden! Silver! Yingya, look!"

She called out to her friends.

"Bru~ Bru~"

The ethereal jellyfish, Yingya, floated over, its tentacles beneath its umbrella swaying slightly, emitting spiritual fluctuations.

It seemed quite interested in the two little creatures as well. It extended several translucent tentacles with faint starlight at their tips.

Curious, they peered towards the illusion and the candle.

Little Golden Dragon Illusion and Little Silver Dragon Candle were clearly also very curious about the floating jellyfish.

They tilted their little heads, and Yingya's figure was reflected in their pale gold and silver-white vertical pupils.

The phantom, emboldened, stretched out its tiny golden claw and gently touched the tip of Yingya's outstretched tentacle.

"Eeya?"

The candle found it interesting and touched it again.

However, at that moment, the aura of a high-level being emanating from Yingya dissipated.

Huan and Zhu froze almost simultaneously, then reacted like startled little animals.

They quickly flew away from Yingya and hid behind Jiang Shi on the left and right, peeking out with their little heads from Jiang Shi's shoulders.

It looked at Yingya warily and timidly, letting out a low murmur.

Jiang Shi: "..."

He could clearly sense the tension of the two young dragons. He looked at the golden and silver dragons hiding behind him, only daring to peek out and looking like cowards.

Looking up again at the floating jellyfish Yingya, who seemed a little confused as to why she had suddenly run away, she was filled with curiosity.

I couldn't help but roll my eyes inwardly and mutter to myself:

Hey, you two are supposed to be dragons, where's your dignity and prestige? You were actually scared by a jellyfish?

This is such a disgrace to the dragon...

Of course, he could only think these words in his heart.

At this moment, Bai Yubing, Liu Siqin, Lin Qingxue, Shen Xi, Dai Xinhui and others also focused their curious gazes on the two golden and silver baby dragons.

Surprise, curiosity, inquiry... a whole host of emotions were expressed.

Jiang Shi knew he had to give an explanation.

He coughed lightly, straightened his back, and began to improvise, making up stories:

"Ahem, everyone sees them, these two little dragons..."

"Well, that's probably the biggest gain we've made since this accidental fall!"

He pointed to Huan and Zhu behind him.

"We accidentally wandered into a cave and found these two eggs. The situation was critical, so we didn't think much and escaped with the eggs. Unexpectedly, they hatched on the spaceship."

"This golden one, let's call it Illusion for now, is closer to me; the silver one is called Candle, it likes to follow the evening stars..."

He tried to describe the process in a thrilling and vague way, avoiding details such as the golden and silver eggs and the cyclical illusion.

"We don't know exactly what capabilities it has at the moment."

As for his relationship with Guo Wanxing, Jiang Shi instinctively chose to ignore it.

Moreover, the story it was made up sound reasonable; there are all sorts of strange encounters in the vast universe.

Although everyone was still curious and puzzled, they did not ask too many questions, but simply sighed a few times.

Afterwards, everyone returned to the main cabin of the space station.

Bai Yubing briefly introduced the situation of the space station crew in the past few days: the collected water, dinosaur meat, wood, food, soil and seeds have ensured that the basic conditions for survival are no longer a problem.

Jiang Shi and Guo Wanxing also summarized their experiences after the crash, mentioning the discovery of a mineral vein, encounters with dinosaurs and flying beasts in the fog, and finally repairing their spaceship and returning home...

After both sides had learned about each other's information, the cabin fell silent for a while.

You look at me, I look at you.

Finally, Bai Yubing looked at Jiang Shi and spoke:

"Jiang Shi, you just mentioned that you've discovered a mineral vein?"

"Yes."

Jiang Shi nodded, "Silicon graphite ore and a type of mineral called lepidocrocite."

"What are the reserves like? How difficult is it to mine them?"

Bai Yubing pressed further, saying that minerals are very important and that storing more is definitely the right thing to do.

Jiang Shi spoke the truth:

"It's hard to say the exact reserves. The vein is probably three or four meters deep, but no more than 100 meters. The sides, top, and surface are all covered in ore, and the enrichment level is very high. However,"

He then changed the subject, his tone becoming serious, "Mining is extremely difficult."

We will begin by explaining how the silica ore is tightly interlocked with slub and is difficult to separate, and the extremely unstable nature of slub.

"Even a slightly violent impact or improper handling could detonate the thunderstone."

"That thing has a huge explosive force; a single bolt of lightning can be used as a weapon. But what if it triggers a chain reaction of lightning stones in the ore vein..."

Jiang Shi paused, then looked at the crowd.

"Forget about mining, they can't even run away. The entire cave, along with a large area nearby, will be blown to bits."

A few soft gasps were heard inside the cabin.

Bai Yubing adjusted her glasses, and Liu Siqin frowned...

But high risk often comes with high reward, it's just that this risk sounds a bit too deadly.

Bai Yubing was silent for a moment, weighing her options: "Jiang Shi, here's the deal: you take us there, and the minerals we obtain will be split 60/40, you get 60%, and we get 40%."

"This planet is too ordinary, and its resources are limited for upgrading the space station."

"Unless we want to settle down permanently, we cannot stay here for long. We must return to space as soon as possible to find planets of higher value and at the same time find the deformable protonucleus needed to upgrade the spaceship to level four."

Jiang Shi knew in his heart that upgrading the spaceship to level four was a qualitative change, and he understood that Bai Yubing was right.

To climb higher, you must upgrade; to upgrade, you must acquire the transformation core; to acquire it, you must return to space.

One link leads to another, each link connected to the next; there's no escaping it.

But Jiang Shi did not agree immediately.

He narrowed his eyes, his gaze sweeping over Bai Yubing, Liu Siqin and the others, before finally settling back on Bai Yubing's face.

"Captain Bai, Wanxing and I discovered the mineral vein, so we'll each get seven, and you three."

"73%?" Shen Xi couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice, feeling that Jiang Shi's price was a bit too steep.

Bai Yubing was not surprised by this small benefit and agreed to Jiang Shi's request in just a few seconds.

"Okay, 70/30 it is, you get 70, we get 30."

"Deal!" Jiang Shi said readily.

"Let's not delay, let's set off now."

Jiang Shi turned to the main console and said, "Xiao Ai, immediately try to relocate the mining dog machine, and then share the coordinates."

"Received, attempting to establish a connection..."

Everyone held their breath and waited.

About a minute later, Xiao Ai's voice rang out again: "Location successful, coordinates sent."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Shi couldn't help but exclaim softly. Xiu Gou being alright meant that he could take him home. It would be such a pity to give up such a capable assistant.

"Captain Bai, coordinates have been sent. It's about a four-hour flight from our current location."

Upon receiving the coordinates, Bai Yubing did not hesitate and immediately ordered the starship to be activated.

Target mine coordinates, proceed at full speed...

About four hours later.

The Tier 3 spaceship slowly descended to the entrance of the Purple Scaled Velociraptor Cave.

The entrance was projected onto the screen, clearly showing the deep, dark environment of the entrance.

Jiang Shi's expression was complicated because Guo Wanyu was clinging to Guo Wanxing, making it difficult for him to get close.

After all, their relationship hadn't been officially announced yet, but the two, who seemed to have a tacit understanding, still exchanged a glance.

"Sis, this cave is so dark..."
