National Star Sea Era

Chapter 175 Ring Soul Floating Land Detection Plan·A large number of soul stones are accounted for

Ignoring the specific attribute changes of the [Silver III Generation Ultra-Wave Magic Energy Detection Radar] component after it was enhanced to level 30, Song Chi immediately turned his attention back to the radar map in front of him.

To be more specific, it fell on the detection prompt of the current location of the Cangqiong on the radar map.

Soon his eyes lit up. Compared with the level 27, the ultra-wave magic energy detection radar that was strengthened to level 30 displayed significantly more energy fluctuation information.

Right now, there happens to be a new prompt where the Cangqiong is located.

After taking a closer look, it was the energy fluctuation prompt of the medium-sized medium-grade soul stone vein below.

[426 meters directly below, considerable energy fluctuations were detected. 99% were medium-grade soul stones that had just been entered into the mineral resource information database, and 1% were others. It was initially estimated to be a medium-sized mineral vein, and the number of mid-grade soul stones that could be mined exceeded 123,000. pieces. 】

After reading this message prompt, Song Chi's thoughts turned out to be true.

It's not that there's something wrong with the [Silver III Generation Ultra-Wave Magic Energy Detection Radar], but that its "magic energy detection" feature also has its limits. Before it is strengthened to the third level, it can only detect one thing under the ground at most. More than 100 meters.

Now that it has been strengthened to the third level, Song Chi estimates that the depth it can detect should reach about 500 meters.

Of course, this refers to a radius of about 100,000 meters with the Sky as the center.

Once this distance is exceeded, the detection depth and accuracy will be reduced to a certain extent, and then when it reaches one million meters, this reduction will become more and more serious, not to mention that the [Silver III Generation Ultra-Wave Magic Energy Detection Radar] can normally detect more than two Within the range of a light month.

After thinking for a moment, Song Chi turned his eyes and looked at the energy fluctuation message prompts that had not appeared before on the radar map ahead.

[One thousand three hundred meters to the north and 200 meters underground, slight energy fluctuations were detected. 98% were low-grade soul stone remnants that were recorded not long ago, and 2% were other. It is estimated that 500 low-grade soul stones can be mined. 】

[Two kilometers to the northwest, 310 meters underground, a slight...]

[Five hundred meters to the south...]

After checking them one by one, Song Chi quickly became helpless. These new energy fluctuation prompts were basically low-grade soul stones or other ordinary minerals, and their overall value was not high.

If you have enough time, you can try to mine slowly, but in this situation, it is obviously not worth the trouble.

This place is still under the control of the Soul Clan. Even with the means of hiding warships and sound shielding, every mining still requires taking a lot of risks.

As for when all these soul clans are cleaned up, Song Chi will probably have nothing to do with him.

According to what grandpa and uncle said before, once all the soul clans on this soul floating land are cleaned up, it is not even necessary to clean them all, as long as the original core of this soul floating land is weakened to a certain extent.

Weakened enough to support the two elders of the Song clan's fourth-order clan outside the floating land, they entered with full strength.

By then, this expedition mission will basically be over, and they, the mission participants, will surely receive the evacuation notice from the First Lineage as soon as possible.

There is no doubt, because this is inevitable. This can be seen from the fact that the family has not sent other fourth-level clan elders from the beginning to the end. Once the mission is over, this soul floating land will soon become the number one. Zhimai’s private land.

Of course, this does not mean that people from other branches of the Song family will not be able to come to this Soul Floating Land in the future, but it is definitely no longer free, and there is a high probability that the number of soul resources obtained here each time is also strictly limited.

So Song Chi's idea is very simple, seize this limited time and take advantage of the "magic energy detection" feature of the [Silver III Generation Ultrawave Magic Energy Detection Radar] as much as possible to mine more resource veins.

In this way, those micro and small mineral veins that are of low value and quite a waste of time are naturally not within his scope of consideration.

However, if you want to mine, you must first find the location of these veins.

Thinking about this, Song Chi activated the semi-automatic shipboard intelligence and asked it to check the new information prompts within the current radius of 100,000 meters one by one. He himself quickly started planning.

There are two simplest ways to find those mineral vein points.

First, get the vein distribution map recorded over the years on the first straight vein.

But this is obviously impossible. Those divine soul mineral vein points found and marked by the First Direct Vein must have been guarded by people from the First Direct Vein. How could he be allowed to secretly mine them?

So there is actually only one feasible way, and that is to drive the Sky to travel around various domains and let the [Silver III Generation Ultra-Wave Magic Energy Detection Radar] personally detect it on the spot.

Although this takes a bit of time, once you find a suitable mineral vein, it is very simple not to say that you will become fat in one bite, but to be full in one bite.

Thinking about it, Song Chi must have decided to follow this plan.

More than 400 meters underground, three angry tiger mining trucks are operating at full speed. According to their progress, they can mine the entire soul stone vein in at most seven or eight days.

However, Song Chi was still dissatisfied and asked the three Furious Tiger mining trucks to stop. He took the Cangqiong to the market again, and then brought out two Furious Tiger mining trucks. Five Furious Tiger mining trucks were brought out at the same time. Homework has improved this efficiency by less than half.

It's not that he doesn't want more mining vehicles to work together. With the resources in his hands becoming more abundant and the level 0 floating land source exceeding one million, he now has more than twenty Nuhu mining vehicles stocked in the market. In addition, there are two standard interstellar civilian mining ships.

However, the direction of the mineral vein below can only allow five mining vehicles to operate at the same time.

Song Chi was actually very satisfied with the efficiency of the five mining vehicles operating at the same time.

The only helpless thing is that the Sky can't leave during their operation, because the [Sonic Silence Field] component must be ensured to continue to be effective, otherwise even if it is hundreds of meters deep underground, the noise generated during the mining operation will definitely trigger the surrounding creatures. of attention.

Otherwise, Song Chi could use the intervening time to explore other places and search for other mineral veins.

"How about calling Xiaoyou over to help?"

Although Song You is weak, there is no need to fight for this kind of thing. He only needs to load the two components of [Void Membrane] and [Sound Wave Silence Field] on the ship.

After thinking about it, Song Chi quickly shook his head. This was still too risky after all.

After all, even he himself couldn't guarantee that he would not be discovered by other soul clans. If something unexpected happened after calling Song You over, he didn't even dare to think about the subsequent results.

In desperation, Song Chi, who had no other option, could only go to the market to practice the Guidance Technique. At the same time, he also continued to visualize the projection rubbings of the mythical mecha with medium-grade soul stones.

Of course, when he is inside the market, he will have two third-level soul clansmen guard the outer sky. If any accident occurs, the two third-level soul clansmen can notify him telepathically as soon as possible.

…

Time passed very quickly. Five days later, the mid-grade soul stone veins below were successfully mined. Song Chi finally harvested 124,700 mid-grade soul stones.

When the mining work was finished, he did not stop. He took back the five angry tiger mining trucks and started driving back non-stop.

He was not in a hurry to return to the stronghold, but was preparing to say hello to his grandfather, and then go directly to the Western Region to launch his previous exploration plan.

The Western Region is now completely in the hands of the family. It is currently the safest place for souls to float on the land, and it has naturally become Song Chi's preferred detection area.

Although most of the unexploited resource points marked by the first direct vein are now in this area, its length and width are more than one million kilometers, so it is impossible for all the first direct vein to be missed.

In addition, there is another reason why he is eager to go to the Western Region. Calculating the time, his next exploration of the alien star region is coming soon, and the tribesmen who are currently participating in the floating continent expedition mission, if they want to explore the alien star region, For Star Territory Exploration, the preferred launch location is the Western Region.

Moving forward carefully, there were no accidents along the way, and Song Chi quickly returned to the family's front line.

At the mountain stronghold, Song Mingsong was very happy to see Song Chi return safely, but before he could wait for a long time, Song Chi's next words made him look stiff.

"Are you going out again?"

Song Mingsong's face darkened and he was not very happy.

This Soul Floating Land is not considered safe. If possible, he naturally wants to keep several people in his family under his nose. This can better ensure the safety of everyone.

Beside her, grandma Bai Xiuqin rolled her eyes.

"Xiaochi is going to the Western Region, not the Central Region or the Eastern Region or anything like that. Why do you want so much?"

"Xiaochi, ignore your grandpa, go ahead, be careful on the road!!"

Even though she said this, Song Chi could also catch the deep worry in grandma's eyes.

He nodded solemnly, left the stronghold again under the gaze of the two people, and then summoned the Sky and headed west.

As for why they didn’t tell grandpa and grandma about the exploration and mining of mineral veins.

First of all, he is not sure that he will be able to find other suitable resource points in the future. If he fails to find them, it will definitely waste a lot of time for the two of them.

Secondly, not long after arriving at the Soul Floating Continent, grandma Bai Xiuqin's "Tianqin" has officially started the battleship promotion mission. The purpose is to kill as many third-order soul clans as possible on the Soul Floating Continent with the help of grandpa. , in order to improve the promotion success rate of Tianqin.

The other third-order black water snake in the underground cave space was handed over to grandma by grandpa and became part of the Tianqin's promotion success rate.

Under this situation, the two of them may not have time to assist him in mining those soul stone veins.

Furthermore, they have clearly accepted the patrol mission from the Southern Command, and the stronghold cannot be left undefended.

…

The soul floated to the Western Region, and after hurrying slowly, the Sky Ship arrived here in less than twenty minutes. Then he activated the [Void Membrane] component and began a detailed exploration of the Western Region.

The reason why he also used the [Void Membrane] component was because he was afraid that the Cang Qiong, which had been wandering slowly in the Western Region, would attract the attention of the First Lineage Clan members.

Another two days later.

Southern Region, Soul Fusion Mountains, Tenth Straight Vein Stronghold Cave.

In the battleship summoning room underneath the stronghold, Song You stood on the nether energy training platform inside the ship, practicing the guidance technique with all his strength.

As the weakest person participating in this mission, he was only at the first level and had been following his second uncle Song Hai for more than 20 days. He was not allowed to act alone and had no chance to earn additional resources.

This made Song You feel bored, so he could only spend most of his time practicing the Daoyin technique.

At this moment, something strange came from the center of his eyebrows, and the Fire Seed suddenly trembled several times.

Feeling this movement, he stopped practicing the Guidance Technique and quickly used the Fire Seed to connect to the temporary Fire LAN. If he guessed correctly, someone was contacting him through the Fire Network.

The next second, Song You's eyes lit up with joy, and his face showed joy.

"Are you interested in coming to the Western Region? Let me know in advance, there are benefits!!"

Seeing that it was Song Chi who sent the message, Song You replied directly without thinking.

"Yes, but grandpa's side..."

"It's okay. I've already said hello to grandpa, grandma, and my second uncle. Come out and I'll come and pick you up!"

Flying at full speed, it would not take long from the Western Region to the Southern Region. In order to ensure Song You's safety, Song Chi decided to make the trip himself.

More than ten minutes later, the two successfully reunited over the stronghold, and then headed straight to the Western Region again.

In the middle of the process, Song Chi also gave Song You two brand-new [Void Membrane] and [Sound Isolation Barrier] parts, and added in passing.

"If you want money, a total of 10,000 merits will be deducted from your subsequent income!!"

Hearing this, Song You was not only not disappointed, but also very happy. From Song Chi's words, it was not difficult to tell that from the subsequent actions of the two of them, his personal dividend income would most likely be more than 10,000 merit points.

For him, who is still a first-level fire captain, this is by no means a small gain.

On the easternmost side of the Western Region, in a canyon near the Central Region, two battleships loaded with [Void Membrane] components slowly descended.

In the battleship communication projection, Song You said uncertainly:

"Fourth brother, are you sure there is a small medium-grade soul stone vein in this canyon?"

Song Chi didn't answer much, just nodded lightly.

Yes, in the past two days, he found this small-scale mid-grade soul stone vein in the Western Region.

It's not that the entire Western Region is really that shabby, but that the first straight line moves very quickly, and their ability to search for mineral veins is not weak. Basically, those mineral veins with good value have been discovered by them first.

Quickly releasing three Furious Tiger mining trucks from the battleship, Song Chi warned:

"Xiaoyou, just stay here and watch."

"Remember, once the duration of the [Core Barrier] component has passed, the mining vehicle below will immediately stop working until the subsequent cooling is completed. The soul stone vein below can mine at least 30,000 medium-grade soul stones, etc. After mining, you will receive 3,000 coins!"

After saying that, Song Chi once again controlled the Cang Qiong and soared into the sky, heading towards the Southern Territory.

The area he wants to explore next is the southern region with the richest mineral resources.

ps: This shouldn’t be considered water, right?
