Space Survival: My Teammates Are All Top-Tier

Hearing her younger sister's somewhat deliberate words, Guo Wanxing looked away and turned to look at her sister: "Don't be afraid, there's no danger inside."

"what?"

Guo Wanyu was somewhat surprised by her reaction, and looked Guo Wanxing up and down suspiciously, "Sister, aren't you afraid of the dark?"

She said that to some extent because she wanted to "protect" her sister, but she didn't expect Guo Wanxing's reaction to be so inappropriate.

"I'm not afraid anymore."

Guo Wanxing spoke casually, then countered, "What, you're unhappy now that I'm not afraid of the dark anymore?"

"Hehe, no way!"

Guo Wanyu quickly hugged her sister's arm and rubbed her face against it.

"I just felt that if my sister were still afraid of the dark, I could protect her. It's a pity you're not afraid anymore..."

My expectations were dashed, and I was a little unhappy.

Guo Wanxing understood the meaning behind her sister's words and found it somewhat amusing. She patted her sister's back and said softly:

"Silly girl, I don't need your protection. Your well-being is the greatest protection you can give me."

Guo Wanyu chuckled and gave a soft "Mmm"...

At this moment, Jiang Shi looked at everyone and raised his voice, saying, "Everyone, the mine is inside. Please be careful when you start mining."

"Let's go. Wanxing and I will lead the way, and Xiugou will be waiting inside."

A group of ten people stepped into the mine.

The cave was dark and cold, but under the strong light, the bloodstains on the rock walls and the ground were still faintly visible.

Guo Wanyu subconsciously leaned closer to her sister, while Guo Wanxing held her hand firmly.

Led by Jiang Shi and Guo Wanxing, the team successfully arrived at the mine.

"Woof..." Xiu Gou barked, ran to Jiang Shi's feet, and quieted down.

The group's eyes lit up as they looked at the mine, but they didn't have much time to appreciate it.

The group began mining as planned, and after six days of mining, their survival time had reached 16 days.

These six days were a period of intense stress and immense physical exertion for everyone.

Everyone was extremely careful as they mined the ore...

On the evening of the 6th day, the mine shaft was completely excavated.

The total amount of lepidocrocite ore is approximately 8 tons, and the total amount of silicon graphite ore is approximately 10 tons.

According to the pre-arranged 70/30 split agreement, Jiang Shi and Guo Wanxing received 70% of the total amount, including 5.6 tons of ore and 7 tons of silicon graphite.

The remaining 8% was divided among the eight people.

Despite their exhaustion, everyone felt that the six days of hard work were worthwhile, seeing the space filled with ore.

Especially thunderstone, a natural bomb, is absolutely effective as a concealed weapon when used unexpectedly.

Without much celebration, everyone quickly evacuated the mine and returned to the spaceship.

Back in the main cabin, without much rest, Bai Yubing activated the spaceship.

It begins takeoff from its spot, heading towards space...

Looking through the observation window at the gradually shrinking landscape, the group felt a sense of awe.

Staying on this planet might be a good choice for them, but what about the future? They'll just live an ordinary life.

None of the people present probably thought of the saying, "People strive for higher positions, while water flows downhill."

What's in front of me is nice, but I want to see what's behind me, what's even higher...

Before nightfall, they returned to space and could clearly see the meteorite rings surrounding the planet.

The spaceship was moving smoothly on a predetermined orbit and made a temporary stop.

Lin Qingxue looked at the blue planet outside the porthole, especially the ring of meteorites, hesitated for a moment, and then asked:

"Sister Bai, are we just going to leave like this?"

"Why don't we stay a little longer? We might find something of great value in that meteorite ring."

Her question silenced the cabin for a moment, and everyone looked at Bai Yubing.

Bai Yubing also turned her gaze away from the meteorite ring outside the porthole and swept it over the people inside the cabin.

Lin Qingxue's question was not without merit. Meteorites in the universe can yield treasure chests, and these chests can contain anything. Their value cannot be underestimated.

She was silent for a few seconds, and finally, slowly spoke:

"We can't just give up like this, but we can't stay here too long either."

Bai Yubing met everyone's gaze.

"Qingxue's concerns are valid. Meteorites are very valuable, but we can't possibly collect them all."

She held up her finger: "Six days, we'll stay for another six days."

"Six days later, regardless of the harvest, we must evacuate and set off."

She paused, her gaze sweeping over everyone: "Does anyone have any objections to this decision?"

After a brief silence, everyone nodded in agreement.

Liu Siqin spoke first, adding:

"Since everyone agrees, for safety's sake, I suggest we split into groups of five to look out for each other."

As she spoke, she casually glanced at Jiang Shi and Zhang Ruoyu, who stood a little behind the crowd with her head down.

Liu Siqin secretly hoped that this group collaboration would ease the stalemate between the two, and at least for the sake of future teamwork, things couldn't continue like this.

"Let's group them according to our current numbers. Groups 1 to 5 will be one group, and groups 6 to 10 will be another."

"Can."

Bai Yubing nodded, "Group One, I'll be the team leader, Group Two..."

Her gaze fell on Jiang Shi. "Jiang Shi, you're the team leader. Is that alright?"

Jiang Shi met Bai Yubing's gaze, his face showing no extra expression, and simply nodded calmly.

"OK."

He didn't say a word more, but at the same time, he glanced at Zhang Ruoyu out of the corner of his eye.

You'd better behave yourself, don't mess with me, and don't even think about having any funny ideas, or else...

Hearing this heartfelt sentiment, Wang Xiaoxiao, who was standing next to Dai Xinhui and idly playing with her fingers, listened.

Suddenly, she raised her head, her big eyes looking at Jiang Shi with a puzzled expression, and then at Zhang Ruoyu, who was looking down.

Hmm? The older brother's malice towards Sister Zhang is so strong, so cold… much worse than when they had their last argument. This shouldn't be happening, right?

Did something happen between them that I don't know about?

Wang Xiaoxiao muttered to herself, puzzled. Her big eyes darted around, looking at this and then at that, her little face full of curiosity.

With the groups assigned, the plan was executed swiftly.

The two groups prepared themselves, put on their spacesuits, and checked their tools and weapons.

To deal with the potential dangers of the asteroid belt, each person was also equipped with five drones.

Shortly afterward, the two groups of people left the space station one after the other through the hatches of the spaceship.

It entered space, at the edge of the meteorite ring.

Jiang Shi led Group Two, whose members included himself (No. 7), Guo Wanxing (No. 6), Wang Xiaoxiao (No. 9), Zhang Ruoyu (No. 9), and Lin Qingxue (No. 10).

Twenty-five drones were launched and surrounded the five-person team, forming a simple dynamic protection circle.

Jiang Shi glanced at the members of his group, his gaze lingering for half a second on Zhang Ruoyu, whose eyelids were lowered and whose expression was obscured, before looking away.

"Since Captain Bai has appointed me as the team leader, I hope that in the upcoming operations, everyone will cooperate with each other, report any abnormalities in the channel immediately, and not act without authorization."

He paused, his tone unchanged: "I don't want to drag the entire team into danger because of anyone's personal thoughts or petty actions."

"Set off!"

He didn't name names, but the warning he conveyed was clear to everyone.

Guo Wanxing glanced at Jiang Shi, then at Zhang Ruoyu, without saying anything.

Wang Xiaoxiao nodded obediently, while glancing curiously at Jiang Shi and secretly glancing at Zhang Ruoyu.

The three began to slowly advance towards the asteroid belt.

Watching Jiang Shi, Guo Wanxing, and Wang Xiaoxiao gradually distance themselves from each other, Lin Qingxue's face was full of disdain:

"Hmph, what's with the fierceness? Do you really think you're so great? Right, Ruoyu?"

Zhang Ruoyu had no intention of agreeing. She was almost certain that Jiang Shi's words were directed at her!

She knew something, so she had to be even more careful and not provoke Jiang Shi.

"Shh..."
