Chapter 382: Diao Chong's Deployment
Soon, Fang Qingyun saw a unit he had never seen in the game before, a huge... reptile? This special insect has a towering huge red abdomen full of corrosive liquid. When attacking, it can shoot out the corrosive liquid as a liquid ball, bombarding the designated location and creating a pit full of corrosive liquid.
These corrosive liquids can effectively prevent the infected bugs from approaching. These liquid pits bubble like boiling paste and can even melt the dwarfs' armor. Unless the infected bugs break out of a liquid pit in groups, even Fang Qingyun's troops will have to temporarily avoid the deadly corrosive ability.
Fortunately, this thing named pus worm is not very mobile, and it requires a lot of force to spray the liquid ball, so its range of thirty meters is enough. Otherwise, in the close-range street fighting environment, Fang Qingyun would find it difficult to deal with this thing.
In addition to the pus beetles that act as barbed wire, the thorns have also mutated into a new type of beetle, called the leech-tailed beetle. This beetle has armor comparable to that of a guard beetle, and its strong claws will not put it at a disadvantage in hand-to-hand combat with a blade beetle. But the most eye-catching part is actually its special tail.
This hook-like tail imitates the structure of the cave leech, which is recognized as the "new killer of dwarf miners". The cave leech is a trap-type monster, similar to a barnacle monster without the tentacles hanging down. They usually stay at the top of the dark tunnel. When they find the target, they will relax their muscles and put down the suction cup. Once the suction cup is attached to the dwarf's body, the leech will slowly pull the dwarf up, silently controlling his limbs so that he cannot resist. It can be said that it is hard to guard against.
If you encounter a team of miners that have no coordination and experience, it is very easy to be killed by a cave leech... CTs have never raised their heads since ancient times, let alone species like dwarves with relatively short necks.
The hook-like tail of the leech-tailed worm was created to cooperate with the dwarves. When the dwarves were fighting, a large number of acid-spitting worms could only keep watch on the periphery. Once the dwarves encountered difficulties in clearing the infection, it would be difficult to withdraw them, after all, there was a pit of corrosive liquid spewed out by the pus worms in the middle. The leech-tailed worm was a special worm responsible for pulling the dwarves out with its tail after they were in danger.
Their tails are as strong and powerful as springs and can be ejected to a length of more than ten meters. Even if Carl is fully armed, the leech-tailed worm can pull him up and bring him to its side like riding a cloud. Although this action is generally a predatory action of the leech-tailed worm, it stands to reason that the leech-tailed worm should replenish its claws after pulling the target to its side. However, under the restraint of thorns, this worm will only act as an external hook of the dwarf, responsible for pulling him out of the corrosive liquid pool without touching the ground when in danger.
After making a good plan for the coordination between the worms and the dwarves, and for the worms to deal with the infected worms, the next thing is how to distribute the worms. You know, there are worms everywhere on Hawks Star. A rockpox meteorite can infect worms in a considerable area. If the worms are distributed too densely, if they are hit, they will become the deployment point of the rockpox. If they are distributed too sparsely, it will be difficult to contain the infected worms in the first place.
Fang Qingyun originally planned to divide Hawks Star according to the group's management method, that is, the management area of a space drilling platform as a defense zone. After the division is completed, the bugs will be concentrated in a certain place in the defense zone. In this way, the probability of being hit by meteorites will be reduced and infinitely close to the probability of being struck by lightning. However, Fang Qingyun later changed his mind and felt that his thinking was not comprehensive enough, and he made a stupid move.
You should know that although mathematics regards extremely small probabilities as impossible events, real life does not tell you what is possible or impossible. No matter how small the probability is, the entire Hawks planet is facing a falling rockpox meteorite shower, and you may encounter one by luck. The almost insect-crowding hiding method will provide a steady supply of infected insects for the rockpox. The crisis at that time cannot be blocked by the purulent insects simply laying a layer of corrosive liquid.
To put it bluntly, although concentrating the bugs in one point by region can reduce the number of infected bugs to a certain extent, once infected, the entire defense zone will collapse, and the danger level of this defense zone will be frighteningly high. Once the infected bugs in the defense zone move around and connect the infected area from a point to a surface, the situation will be out of control.
You have to know that the bugs can dig holes, and even if they are infected, this skill is engraved in their DNA. If these infected bugs are allowed to dig holes and harass everywhere, then the defense line will be messed up sooner or later. How can the defense line with holes everywhere guarantee the safety of the dwarves who enter the infected area to clean up?
Therefore, Fang Qingyun thought about it and decided to adopt a safer method, which is to distribute the Diao insects evenly in their respective defense zones. In this way, although the number of infected Diao insects will increase when the meteorite shower falls, most of them are evenly distributed in the defense zone, which also creates an opportunity for other Diao insects around to suppress them. The Diao insects rushing to the outside of the infected area from all directions will immediately block the target. In addition, although the number of infected Diao insects is large, they are surrounded evenly. Even if several meteorites occasionally fall in a defense zone, it only expands the area of the blockade a little.
Now all the bugs have evolved long-range attack capabilities. When the time comes, a round of acid spitting will naturally be able to suppress the infected bugs.
After thinking about these two questions, Fang Qingyun began to think about what he had not noticed. He stared at the dwarves who were holding the ammunition in a daze, feeling as if he had missed something.
"Apprentice, apprentice, when can we go down?" Ximi yawned across the screen. Although she was familiar with places like space, she was not very familiar with it either. This false feeling of being down to earth made her feel a little afraid that the space station would fall, just like sitting in the classroom and worrying that the electric fan would fall and cut the heads of people around her.
Ju'er pulled Ximi and told her to stop jumping around. She was still a little uncomfortable with her new body. She was used to passing through walls in her previous soul state, but now that she was at the space drilling platform, she had already smashed three airlock doors in just a short while...
"Um... how about we go through Hell for a transfer?" Fang Qingyun touched his chin. Anyway, Ximi and the others could open the Hell portal. After going through the Hell portal, they could open a door next to Fang Qingyun. In this way, they could get here in no time. "Take the miners with you. I'll reconnect their arms and legs."
Ximi nodded, understood Fang Qingyun's meaning, and led the miners into the hell portal. It must be said that hell has undergone a reform now. The originally orange-red sky has turned into blue sky with white clouds. This made the dwarf miners, who had not seen the familiar sky for a long time, burst into tears. They usually come into contact with either dim lights and tired friends, or the dazzling alternation of morning and evening, and bitter and watery beer in their mouths.
Ximi and Ju'er looked at each other, then opened the portal leading directly to Fang Qingyun again. Looking at the dwarf miners supporting each other, Ximi licked her lips. They also had the ability to regenerate broken legs and arms, but they couldn't expose it and take over the other's business. Instead, they had to give this opportunity to be good people to Fang Qingyun.
This was not Fang Qingyun's own idea. If you asked him to debate or negotiate, he could tell you his strengths and weaknesses, and he even dared to find out his opponent's weaknesses. However, he had never realized the things that required high emotional intelligence or attention to details in daily life. He was like a student who didn't see the questions on the back of the test paper and thought he did well, but in fact, in the eyes of others, he was so honest that he was "pure as paper".
The reason why Ximi didn't do this was very simple. She wanted to give all the credit and favor in this regard to Fang Qingyun. It was not that Fang Qingyun wanted to be in the limelight, but that Fang Qingyun urgently needed to leave an impression in the hearts of all the dwarves, an impression that was enough to make the dwarves follow.
If Simi also showed the ability to heal, then the dwarf miners, a group that was proud of their unity, would have two people to be grateful to. However, since gratitude could not be diverted to a certain extent, it was possible that everyone would be very grateful to the two people and give a bunch of small gifts that symbolized their thoughts, but in the end almost no dwarves would be willing to follow.
To put it bluntly, both accounts were grinding for reputation, but they were not concentrated together, resulting in both accounts having respected reputation. Since they did not reach worship, the plot was not triggered, and in the end it was a big loss.
Therefore, when Ximi saw the grateful expressions on the faces of the dwarf miners after Fang Qingyun healed the dwarves, and the expressions of disbelief and collapsed faith on the faces of the dwarves in the engineering department next to them, he knew that his choice should be correct... but in fact, it was wrong.
Katerin came out of the hell portal next to her. The white-haired, red-eyed vampire yawned, said hello to Ju'er who was scratching the back of his head, and stared at Ximi with a little dissatisfaction: "Don't you think you missed something? For example, I'm still in the engineering department?"
Ximi smiled awkwardly: "Sorry, I forgot about it when I was thinking about something just now... Sorry, sorry!"
Knowing that he was wrong, Ximi clasped his hands together and bowed to Catherine in a flattering manner. This made Catherine feel a little embarrassed. She was just a little angry, angry that her presence was not strong, but Ximi's performance really made her flattered. So Fang Qingyun looked at the two non-human races bowing to each other, and he suspected that this was some kind of mysterious ritual.
"So what should we do? Is there any mission?" The boss walked up to Fang Qingyun and looked at him from his height, which had increased a lot but was still high enough for him to look up at him. "We can't just sit there like this, can we?"
Chapter 383: Speculations about Rock Pox
Speaking of the elite team of the boss, Fang Qingyun began to have a headache. On the one hand, they had just experienced painful lessons such as broken hands and feet. It was not easy for the boss and his team to get out of the haze so quickly. Although Fang Qingyun was the same at the beginning, he was burned into his birth form by a fire monster, but the next day he was still able to overcome his inner fear because of insufficient cards and look for relics to make up memory fragments...
Fang Qingyun recalled carefully. At that time, he did not seem to have any concerns, worries or even fears because of a death. Instead, he enthusiastically accepted the fact that he would die and continued to devote himself to the next adventure... It is not known whether it was the courage of seeing through everything and still choosing to move forward or just being a simple reckless man.
But that good thing never happened again. Fang Qingyun once suspected that the one-time effect of the achievement was the so-called help for novices, and the subsequent achievements had no similar effects. Otherwise, he could get a large amount of memory fragments by searching everyone's collection. Even if he did this once in the Food Addiction Dungeon, this amount of memory fragments was enough for Fang Qingyun to play the Codex of Fate as a cracked version of the game.
Fang Qingyun came back to his senses and noticed that the boss was still waiting for his answer. Fang Qingyun smiled and began to feel sad. Although it felt like only a short amount of time had passed, he still felt like he was getting old.
Fang Qingyun was calm and composed, and put his hand on the boss's shoulder in an old man's tone... Well, penguins don't have shoulders, so Fang Qingyun just put his hand on the side of the boss's fin: "This is a huge war beyond the imagination of many people. It is a battle of life and death..."
Koloski took out his whiteboard and started gesturing. The sound of the thick liner pen rubbing against the whiteboard made his scalp itch. "Boss, I understand. If we do something that we think is right, it is very likely to lead to the failure of the entire battle and an avalanche of consequences... Then everything we do will be useless, and our chance of survival will be reduced by 23.71%."
"Results, I want results, Koloski." The boss was obviously not sensitive to mathematics, and Fang Qingyun also knew that Koloski's analysis was more metaphysics than mathematics. He had shown more than once that he could draw conclusions based on certain conditions, and they were extremely accurate. It's just that sometimes the lack of some key conditions would cause a large deviation in everything, but generally speaking, Koloski's analysis was still reliable.
"Simply put, if we act recklessly... the probability of the destruction of the entire planet will approach 100%, and the probability of survival will be zero, it's not approaching." Koloski checked the calculation twice over and over again, but the way he crossed out all the zeros on the left and right sides of the addition and subtraction equations when simplifying them still made Fang Qingyun raise his eyebrows, wondering if he had learned something wrong in math.
It is probably 20-2=18. Cross out the zero on the left and the two circles on the right, so we get 2-2=1... um, Fang Qingyun can't tell the wrong way.
"What if it's a fully-equipped grand adventure?" The boss modified the conditions. When he said the three words "grand adventure", some inexplicable and exciting sound effects seemed to be transmitted in the empty insect tunnel, causing the dwarves, who were still loading bullets into the magazines with red faces and thick necks, to look in that direction for a second longer.
"...Well, then our chance of survival will increase, and the probability of the planet's destruction will drop to 63.14%." Koloski calculated the result using a simplified method that Fang Qingyun could not understand. It seemed that if the boss and his men continued to rush in with their previous stubborn approach, the result would be death without a burial place. But if they were fully equipped, they could increase the chance of the planet's survival by making a scene.
It was only at this time that Fang Qingyun noticed the description in Koloski's words just now. He used the word "destruction probability" to describe the planet. If only the worms suffered a catastrophic disaster, Hawks Planet should not be destroyed. At most, there would be a certain degree of ecological disorder, but soon a race would appear to replace the worms...
So why is there such a thing as destruction? Fang Qingyun pondered... Rockpox will cause the destruction of the planet... Could it be?
Fang Qingyun turned his head and asked Jingzhi, "Can rock pox infect rocks?"
"Unknown, there is such a tendency." Thorn gave an ambiguous statement. After falling, the rockpox will indeed turn a large area of the surrounding land into a disgusting thing like a fungal blanket, but these fungal blankets do not show any special abilities. They just change the color of the surrounding land, as if they have changed their skin. Other than that, there is nothing special about it.
If there is such a tendency, then the destructive power is basically certain. There is an 80% chance that this "fungal blanket" will infect the land and multiply in large numbers like the bacteria on the planet, until the entire planet is completely infected... At that time, it will release some spore gas that can infect other organisms, and snatch nutrients from plants... How many organisms can survive on the planet depends entirely on the mood of the rockpox. If the rockpox emits a large amount of infectious gas again, the dwarves who come down to mine will probably feel like they are entering a gas chamber.
If we think more deeply, after all, at this point, rockpox can only pose a superficial threat to the planet. The extinction of so many creatures and plants would at most be like a human going bald, but it would not pose a threat to human safety.
But if the rock pox develops to a certain extent, it will disintegrate the planet, splitting it layer by layer, like peeling an onion, and then the gravitational force will be strong enough to throw the planet out like gravel in a catapult, splitting it into countless small meteorites and carrying out saturation bombardment in all directions...
Then the rockpox meteorites that are about to fall on Hawks Star are likely to come in batches instead of just one wave...If some meteorites are not stopped in time from expanding the scope of infection, it is very likely that the entire Hawks Star will suffer a catastrophic disaster.
Fang Qingyun sent his guess to the Hell Network and sent a copy to the resurrected Carl at the same time. This information quickly made Carl's expression serious and melancholy, but he did not show too much worry. Instead, he cheered up the other miners who were still loading bullets. It must be said that as an idol worshipped by the dwarves (although there is a propaganda part), Carl is indeed good at increasing the centripetal force of everyone. After spending such a short time together, he integrated into the dwarves with his personal charm and even made jokes about his hands and feet.
Maybe others would be beaten by the dwarves for joking, but Carl regained his body after being resurrected, so his funny puns made the dwarves laugh. Carl also quietly achieved his goal during the conversation - taking the dwarves out to try out the gun.
Others who were not part of the Hell Network did not understand why Fang Qingyun was stunned. They only saw Fang Qingyun suddenly ask Thorn a question, and then he stood there in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking. The boss's fins patted Fang Qingyun's strong thighs, and the steel-like muscles made the boss unconsciously retract his fins. It was obviously just a light pat, but he felt a strong recoil. Anyway, his fins were numb now.
Fang Qingyun finally came back to his senses, looking at the boss who was rubbing his fins behind him calmly because of the pain. Fang Qingyun patted the boss's flat head lightly, which made the boss almost fall to the ground: "Well, I have no objection to you wanting to take risks, but you must bring communication devices, weapons, and armor to ask Dr. Blowhole. No matter how many people go out, bring them back intact. I don't want to see anyone running back to me with rock pox all over his body. I don't have the ability to do that, do you know?"
Fang Qingyun was not exaggerating. He also wanted to study the rockpox. Apart from its other functions, it would be great if he could develop the sensing ability of the rockpox. You know, the rockpox can be used as a fungal blanket. When someone wants to launch a sneak attack and steps on the rockpox, Qingyun will receive the message. This is undoubtedly an important part of supplementing the hell's reconnaissance means and tactical system.
So how could Fang Qingyun, who was completely clueless about rock pox, know how to treat it? He only knew to kill the person and try to revive him. If the infection was too deep and left residue after resurrection, Fang Qingyun would be helpless...
Rui Ge seemed to be quite enthusiastic about the adventure. When he heard that Fang Qingyun agreed, he cheered incoherently and at the same time made a celebratory gesture with his elbows swinging backwards and his hips thrust forward, which had a slightly obscene meaning, but it looked cuter on the penguin.
The Penguin Team ran to find Dr. Blowhole. They had been loving and hating each other for so long, so naturally they knew what each other needed. In addition, the dwarves from the engineering department of the command drilling platform brought some small tools with them when they came down. Fang Qingyun also kept the coordinates of the portal to the command drilling platform, so they could teleport between the two points at any time. In this way, they could use the tools of the command drilling platform to modify their weapons, and by the way, they could also kick the management staff who were left there.
On weekdays, everyone had had enough of sandwiches, and when they learned that their food rations had been replaced by high-quality steaks by the management, even the most tolerant dwarves could no longer tolerate it, especially the dwarves in the engineering department. The miners were used to hard work and naturally didn't care, but it was different in the engineering department. They ate sandwiches every day, and in the end they got inflamed lips and cracked lips, and they could only rely on swallowing pills to heal them. When they learned that their own fruits and vegetables had been replaced, their attitude towards the management could only be described as bad.
As for Fang Qingyun, now that he had arranged everything, he found that he had nothing to do. In addition, Kikuchiyo, Ximi and Juer next to him were still staring at Jingci who was holding Fang Qingyun's arm as if no one was around... There was a kind of half-smile on their expressions.
I always feel that this problem will become more serious in the future...
Chapter 384: Support Arrives
Buster was very efficient, and it was not known whether it was out of a desire for political capital or compliance with the terms of the contract he signed. In short, Fang Qingyun, who had just rested for a while, heard a vibration sound from top to bottom. This vibration sound seemed to come from the top and was gradually approaching.
"It sounds like the sound of a drill," Carl guessed based on his own experience. Although he had never heard of a drill with such high power during his lifetime, it did not mean that the dwarves later on could not invent one.
"It doesn't sound like a drop pod, but more like Dorela's voice..." An experienced old miner stroked his chin and listened carefully. He saw the dwarves from the engineering department next to him begin to flee in panic. Although they had never done the job, they knew what Dorela was. It was a large drill used by the Deep Rock Galactic Group to drill through the outer layer of the hard-to-break shell when mining the special Omoran Heartstone, and Dorela was the AI of the large drill.
Hearing that this thing was on the top, the dwarves in the engineering department began to hide in places around them that they thought were safe. Some even went back to the space drilling platform through the portal, for fear that this thing would fall on their heads.
The dwarf miners who listened carefully to the sound for a while seemed calm and composed. After arriving at the insect tunnel, they had a familiar feeling of returning home. They even subconsciously wanted to fire at the insects restrained by thorns. It was like muscle memory.
After arriving underground, these miners were like experienced men. They easily determined which terrain they were in based on the surrounding environment. Some experienced ones could even roughly determine their location in the terrain based on the subtle differences in the surrounding rocks and soil. Therefore, for experienced miners like them, the noise coming from far away when the large drill rigs on top were enough for them to roughly determine the time and direction required for the drill rigs to land. Some of them even opened a plate inside and pushed their empty magazines on it.
They planned to bet on the landing time of the drilling rig. The person who said the time closest to the landing time would win, and the loser would help the winner to load the bullet... This way of gambling was very déjà vu, just like before the lights were turned off at night in college, when everyone counted down to see when the lights would be turned off on time.
Most of the dwarves pressed the trigger for 120 seconds, but Carl was different. He was cunning and pressed the trigger for 119 seconds. If he won, it would be equivalent to winning a bunch of people's magazines at once, and then these dwarves would load the bullets and shoot at Carl... although Carl was using a Stalker.
With Carl taking the lead, the dwarves who were originally worried that the serious Carl came to stop gambling relaxed a little. After all, the propaganda about Carl included a lot of... unrealistic qualities and virtues that were easy to exploit.
For example, Carl is an almost fearless miner, enthusiastic and brave - this is what motivates the miners to work overtime.
For example, Carl seldom drinks because he needs to keep a clear head - this is because beer was free in the beginning in the bar, a virtue born out of the desire to reduce beer consumption. Later, after the reform, beer was charged, but this virtue cannot be taken back and can only be left as it is.
In short, after a series of publicity, Carl became a breath of fresh air among the dwarves. He hated evil but was always enthusiastic about the next mission. He never gambled or played games. When Carl came over, the dwarves thought they would be scolded by their idol, but they never expected that Carl would take advantage of them as accurately as an old gambler, and the atmosphere became harmonious again.
After Carl set the example, the dwarf miners who were waiting and watching also joined in. Even a few dwarves from the engineering department tried to take their valuables to participate, but all the valuables were rejected by the miners. They were just doing it for fun, not for taking things from their friends. Not to mention whether they could bear to extort so much from their friends, what if they encountered danger while going down the mine?
Expecting your teammates who owe you a debt to give you a hand?
So the dwarves from the engineering department also took a magazine and mixed in with the dwarf group to place bets. They quickly became friends with the miners with their loud and noisy attitude. In addition, there were no combat missions at the moment, so Bosco became a bartender, pulled a beer tube from the space drilling platform through the portal, and began to pour beer for the dwarves. Anyway, there was no way to charge them now. Dr. Blowhole used a little trick to damage the beer nozzle and internal sensing components. As long as the Bosco robot clamped the tube, the flow rate of the beer could be controlled.
When the dwarf guards sent by Buster came out of the large drill with a basket of chemical protection suits, they saw this scene: Carl raised his cup and shouted "I won", and the other dwarf miners were red-faced and began to load bullets with a smell of alcohol. There were also a few dwarves from the engineering department in red clothes mixed in. They believed that it was the truth of the world that one should accept defeat. Next to them was the Bosco robot who was pouring wine with his head tilted...
The chaotic scene startled the Dwarf Guards. Their leaders suspected that they had taken the wrong route. Their original mission to capture a "Carl imitator" was cancelled and replaced with the more illusory mission of saving the world. During the landing process, they also received a large amount of intelligence about the enemy they would face. The Dwarf Guards, who were given an important task, thought they were here to save the world. After landing, they should be incorporated into the combat team without stopping. Some of them were even ready to die.
The Dwarf Guards looked at the chaotic scene with empty eyes... Can they save the world in this state?
"This is really his style." A hoarse voice came out of the red dwarf next to the leader of the Dwarf Guard. His temperament was incompatible with the sophisticated equipment of the Dwarf Guard, just like a battle-hardened veteran dressed sloppily with a group of nervous recruits standing at attention next to him. The red dwarf patted his tattered jacket. You know, he was pulled here urgently. If there were not enough seats in the drilling rig, he might have to buy a standing ticket.
"Hey, Carl." The red dwarf's jacket was a little white. I don't know what kind of leather it was made of. Because it was worn for too long and washed, there were cracks and wrinkles all over the leather. "Long time no see? Don't you miss me?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Carl turned his head so fast that the dwarf next to him could almost hear the wind. He turned his head and saw a familiar figure in red. The old acquaintance with glasses, who was weathered but still a little shy (not being good at speaking might be more suitable for his age), asked Carl to put down the cup in his hand and rushed over at almost a running speed: "Fettig? Why did Buster put you down?"
Carl thought that everything Buster did before was just acting, and in fact Buster was still the reliable teammate he used to be. But soon Carl's former teammate, engineer Fettig, interrupted Carl's thoughts: "I came here by myself. The leader of the dwarf guard is your fan. He was almost tricked by Buster to come and capture you, the 'Carl imitator'. I told him and he let me come up."
Karl was about to ask something when he was interrupted by Fettig again.
"Don't even think about it. Buster has completely become a stranger. If I hadn't sneaked in quietly, he would probably tell me to get out... or even do something more cruel and just drag me out and shoot me." Fettig shrugged his shoulders: "But he is still too naive. When I received your message, I was thinking about how to get here. It just so happened that I got a ride, and this guy is also your little fan, so I came here."
"...where's the driller?" Carl asked. The engineer Fettig who was in the team had arrived, but the gunner Buster had become a stranger, and no one knew where the driller was.
"...I don't know." Fettig shook his head sadly. He didn't know where the driller had gone. He only knew that the driller left in anger. He didn't know whether he had returned to normal life or was dealt with. You know, the driller was also aware of some of Carl's content, so it was normal for him to be transferred from his post or simply dealt with.
This Fettig was no ordinary man either, or could be said to be another legend, but his glory was overshadowed by Carl. After Carl's death, he was transferred to another dwarf mining team as a babysitter. During a level 5 difficulty expedition in the vine tree cave, because the three gold-level teammates failed to figure out their own position, Fettig stayed behind to clean up the mess, and he almost followed in Carl's footsteps. When he arrived at the airdrop chamber, there was only a big pit left, and he was abandoned by his three cowardly teammates.
His three teammates said that the engineer died heroically to protect everyone, so the group did not send out a rescue team to save the diamond-level engineer.
Thus Fettig began his wandering on Hawks Star. Relying on his only ammunition, he wandered in the dangerous insect tunnels. By recycling the equipment and ammunition of the previous dwarves, he completed the accumulation of his own primitive engineering tools. Next, he assembled a radio with these scraps and tried to contact the space station.
But it was obvious that the space station did not respond to him, so Fettig had to change his idea and send high-intensity signals to the surroundings, trying to contact other dwarves who were also trapped on Hawks. Soon, Fettig's behavior was rewarded.
He gradually contacted and took in many nearby dwarves. Due to lack of food, clothing, ammunition and supplies, the dwarves had to avoid the activities of the insects and move around. When they arrived at Fettig's temporary camp, the thinnest among them had lost nearly 20 kilograms, and many people died on the way.
Fettig DIYed weapons while hiding from place to place, and finally relied on the radio to lead the dwarves to find a nearby abandoned airdrop chamber and return home. However, after performing such a heroic act, Fettig did not receive the treatment he deserved, but faced a fine for violating other people's patents during DIY. Even Buster complained about why Fettig brought those dwarves back...
Chapter 385: Disaster Strikes
After all, the money needed for a dead dwarf is far less than the money the group needs to pay after a dwarf miner returns... This was also the opportunity for Fettig to see the true face of Deep Rock Galactic Group. From then on, Fettig was in the logistics department, and no one else knew what he did. The final outcome of those dwarves who had gone through life and death was to be forced to retire and go home. As for Fettig himself... he did not receive any compensation except for receiving a bill.
There is never too much time to prepare, but disaster will not stop for even a second.
Diao Chong has been assigned, and Fang Qingyun has also dispersed the one thousand death commandos in his hands, spreading them out as much as possible within Hawks Star. Even with the configuration of four-man teams, this one thousand death commandos can only cover two hundred and fifty areas, which is a drop in the bucket for the entire Hawks Star and can only barely cover Buster's defense zone.
Fang Qingyun was busy all night and didn't feel tired. He repeated the task of opening and closing the portal and completed the arrangement under the guidance of Thorn. He originally wanted to split the team up a little more, keeping two-person teams or more aggressive one-person teams, but in that case the team could easily be wiped out due to accidents, so to be on the safe side Fang Qingyun could only disperse like this.
The message that the leader of the Dwarf Guard brought down was very simple. Buster had contacted other people, but the directors had not responded yet (in fact, the letter had not been delivered to them), so they could only take care of their own business. Carl had no choice but to use the communicators and radios brought down by the Dwarf Guard to send messages to all the dwarves on Hawks Star in a place with better signals, telling them that a major disaster was about to occur, and that the Diao Chong around them would take them to refuge.
This news made countless dwarves who were still mining below sneer. You know, the bugs and the dwarves are two groups that are incompatible with each other, so how could they reach a consensus? Just when they regarded all this as a joke, the thorns came.
Thorn did not appear in her original form. She scanned the entire Hawkes planet with her sensing ability. With Carl's endorsement, she broke herself into hundreds of pieces and negotiated with the vigilant dwarves.
After seeing the obedient appearance of the Diao Chong, the dwarves half-believed and half-doubted what Thorn said, but they rejected Thorn's suggestion that they disperse to avoid the meteorite bombardment. In this regard, they were more inclined to believe that it was Thorn's trick to defeat them one by one, so they still temporarily did not invade each other in the form of a small team, but in the rest area designated by the Diao Chong, they also set up a large number of traps to prevent the Diao Chong from suddenly rushing in and encircling and annihilating them.
But Thorn didn't care about their defensive posture. If Fang Qingyun hadn't ordered her, she wouldn't even bother to talk to these dwarves. The dwarves had hatred for the bugs, but didn't the bugs have hatred for the dwarves? It was just that Thorn didn't usually show it.
After a busy night, Fang Qingyun finally had time to sleep for a while. Although he had never slept in the Food Addiction Dungeon and only rested for a while in the final stage, he was no longer the zombie body in the Food Addiction Dungeon. Naturally, he did not have the endless power and tireless ability like an engine. To be honest, he had a high tolerance for things like fighting, but he would get tired quickly if he had to keep using his brain to do things. Now he only felt that his eyelids were sticking together, and fatigue made him feel a sense of blockage every time he opened and closed his eyes.
After finishing all this, Fang Qingyun found a relatively clean place, shook off the salt crystal fragments that might prick his butt, and without caring about how he cleaned up, he sat down there, tilted his head back and leaned against the rock wall, and fell asleep within five minutes.
His sleep quality has always been very good. Even in an unfamiliar place, as long as he feels that it is time for him to sleep, he can fall asleep within five minutes, and even make steady breathing sounds after falling asleep.
Kikuchiyo and Ximi walked to the sleeping Fang Qingyun. They moved very lightly for fear of waking Fang Qingyun up, but that was unnecessary because as long as Fang Qingyun was asleep, he would not wake up even if the sky fell...
And then the sky really collapsed...Rocks and rubble crashed down from the ceiling, and the entire ground shook violently as if there was an earthquake. Fang Qingyun, who had just fallen asleep, fell down on the dirt beside him like a hungry dog. The flying dust turned Kikuchiyo and Ximi into harlequin cats. Piles of salt crystal cones fell from the ceiling, pierced straight into the ground and shattered into several pieces.
"Puh, puh, puh." Fang Qingyun spat out the coarse salt that fell into his mouth. The bitter and salty feeling made him put on a mask of pain, and his whole face wrinkled: "What's going on? How long have I been sleeping?"
—Five minutes ago, a space rig—
"Ethan, Ethan! Look, there's a meteor shower outside!" The idle scout sat in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window of the space drilling platform with a glass of wine. From this angle, he could see the whole picture of Hawks Planet. A large number of deep red meteorites like lava rocks passed by in front of him, which scared him and made him subconsciously utter some not-so-elegant words.
"What's wrong?" Driller Ethan yawned, he walked to the scout and clinked the glass in his hand with the scout's as a celebration, then poured the glass of wine into his mouth. While drinking, he did not forget to continue looking at the surface of Hawks Star. This place is both a treasure land and a place to lose lives... As he was thinking this, his sight was suddenly blocked by something, but that thing came and went quickly, and Ethan only felt his face darken but he could not see anything clearly.
"What just passed by? A big black rat?" Ethan put down his wine glass and leaned against the French window to try to see what just passed by, but even if he pressed his whole face against the screen, he couldn't see what just passed by.
"Meteor shower, so romantic." The scout didn't seem panicked at all, but this sentence made Ethan feel a little uneasy. He turned his head to look at the radar, only to find that the radar screen displayed the game interface of the "Rocket Boots" mini-game. The magical sound effect was so loud that Ethan frowned unconsciously.
"Where's the radar interface?" Ethan asked.
