Chapter 484 Confrontation

Continuing along the valley, there is a huge cave entrance, with a large number of excavation marks along the way.

Encountering little resistance along the way, the Star Thieves group led by Sea Wolf marched straight in and quickly entered the depths of the cave.

Lu Yuan always kept his position near the end of the first echelon of the Star Thieves, taking his time.

He almost didn't take any action in the middle, just randomly destroying a few hidden energy turrets.

But as Alfonzo, Sea Wolf's younger brother, even if he wants to keep a low profile, there are always many people paying close attention to his movements.

Lu Yuan noticed that in addition to "Red Beard", there were also several seventh-level spiritual powers that would pretend to fall on him inadvertently. Presumably they were several other star thieves who wanted to conspire to get rid of Sea Wolf. A powerful person.

Lu Yuan wrote down the identities of several people, pretended as if nothing had happened, and continued to mingle among the star thief army.

"boom!"

The scarlet energy beam, which was almost solidified, hit an alloy door directly in front like a knife cutting through butter, leaving a large hole several meters in diameter in the door.

In the diffuse smoke and heat, the black mecha with the bloody wolf head totem stepped forward step by step on the molten steel. Its giant alloy arm as strong as a giant held the edge of the big hole, and with a little force

"Kacha kacha——"

With a heart-wrenching sound of metal twisting, Sea Wolf tore open the seven- to eight-meter-thick alloy door, opening up a huge entrance that could allow several level five mechas to enter and exit in parallel.

The huge team of Star Thieves was silent for a few seconds, and the originally noisy Level 7 pilot channel also fell into a tacit silence.

Even though Sea Wolf's reputation has always been prominent, seeing the opponent's powerful strength at such a close distance inevitably caused the star thieves to be slightly shaken again.

"Is this the strength of level eight?"

Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly as he watched the whole process of Sea Wolf controlling the mecha to forcefully open a road.

Alfonzo's memory told him that the custom-made Bloodscream mecha driven by Sea Wolf was not a power-type mecha.

But judging from the strength that Sea Wolf just showed, that strength is no less than that of his lv2 grandmaster in the mecha body.

The basic performance of the eighth-level mecha alone is enough to crush a group of ordinary seventh-level mechas, not counting the spiritual blessings of the pilots who are also at the eighth level, and resonance skills and other means.

"The existence of mechas makes the gap in combat power between each level more exaggerated the further you go.

This is just under the Star Spirit Realm. If you enter the Star Master Realm, the pilot's mental power will transform, and the mecha will also sublimate into the Star Master Soldier, then the gap between realms will be really outrageous."

Lu Yuan thought silently in his heart.

The shortcomings of his mecha body are also exposed at this point. After other pilots advance in spiritual power, they only need to change to a higher-level mecha, and their combat effectiveness will undergo a qualitative transformation.

But even if he devours more advanced mecha forging materials, the overall strength of the mecha body will not change significantly.

The influence of the technology tree continues to grow.

"Walk."

Sea Wolf's cold voice came from the terminal channel, and a group of star thieves filed in through the gap.

Lu Yuan followed the group of star thieves into the gap.

After entering, when he saw the scene in front of him clearly, he was slightly startled.

Lu Yuan kept silently remembering the entry route on the way here, knowing that after entering the valley, the direction they were heading was always downward.

By now it is estimated that it has reached more than 200 meters below the ground.

However, at this time, Lu Yuan suddenly discovered that the group of intruders, after crossing the barrier of the alloy gate, were at a high point.

——

The star thieves headed by Sea Wolf were all standing on a white platform.

All of them piloted mechas, and in the eyes of ordinary people, they were already considered giants.

However, the white platform where nearly a hundred intermediate mechas stood still seemed quite spacious. It was estimated that all the people behind would need to come in to barely fill the platform.

And even this white platform still looks inconspicuous in the space in front of you.

Including Lu Yuan, almost all the star thieves were slightly shocked by the extremely huge ruins space in front of them.

big.

too big.

Under the thick rock dome is an empty black square with an ancient atmosphere.

This group of people was like a group of ants that accidentally broke into the giant's mausoleum. They fell into a brief shock and confusion in an instant.

"Ancient ruins. Are these so-called ancient ruins?"

Lu Yuan heard the muttering voice of a certain seventh-level star thief coming from the terminal channel.

He glanced around and noticed that the walls of the huge ruins cave in front of him were all slightly green, and the air was filled with an unusually sober and pleasant smell.

Lu Yuan was not a serious piloting mecha. Without the hindrance of the fresh air filtration system, he noticed it immediately.

Every time he took a breath, a steady stream of extremely pure life energy emerged from the air he inhaled into his lungs.

There seemed to be many fluorescent green spots floating in the field of vision.

At this moment, Lu Yuan suddenly understood——

When he first arrived at Lilva Planet, he wondered where the rising tide-like fluorescent ocean he encountered when traveling at night came from.

It actually came from this huge ancient ruins cave in front of me.

Perhaps, the reason why Lilwa has grown so much vegetation over the years and has transformed from a dead and barren planet into a tourist resource planet with beautiful scenery is also because of this.

It's incredible.

"Life source ore. It's life source ore."

Someone in the pirate group spoke with a trembling voice, and the alloy arm of the mecha raised and pointed at the green walls on all sides of the cave. Unable to suppress his excitement, he almost shouted: "There are life source ore everywhere! Everywhere! We are rich! We are rich this time!! Haha."

It is obvious that more than one person discovered this, and all the pirates on the platform became agitated.

One by one, the mechas flew up from the white platform like crazy, flying towards the nearest wall, and some even fired directly at the cave wall.

There were bursts of ghost-like howling sounds coming from the terminal channel. Lu Yuan frowned and simply turned off the channel.

Of course, he was also very excited at this time.

Licking his lips slightly, Lu Yuan took a deep breath and slowly moved his eyes away from the green cave wall in front of him.

His eyelids drooped, and his body even took two steps back.

He knew.

The more at this time, the more you need to know how to control your desires.

"Boom! Boom."

Accompanied by the sound of explosions, more and more space pirates began to fire at the cave wall.

But unexpectedly, the cave wall mixed with a large amount of life source ore was extremely hard.

Even if the firepower of the seventh-level mecha bombarded the stone wall, it could only rustle and fall some stone chips and powder, revealing the deeper green under the surface, and there was no scene of large chunks of life source ore falling as everyone imagined.

"Buzz--"

A strange air tremor suddenly sounded in the cave.

As soon as Lu Yuan looked up, he saw several "active" pirate mechas floating in the air being swept by a crystal-like purple light.

Then the bodies stopped immediately, and a large amount of flames were spewed out from the fuselage, split into two sections, and fell from the air like a stone.

A few seconds later, the dull sound of the mecha falling and exploding came from below.

In an instant, the noisy atmosphere on the pirate side suddenly stagnated, and everyone's figures instantly shrank back, and their eyes looked down.

I saw a large number of combat mechas appearing on the huge black square below.

These mechas were glowing red gold, with gorgeous shapes, and even translucent energy cloaks behind the fuselage. They looked like a team of well-equipped and well-trained ancient court knights.

In the center of this group of red gold mechas, two figures stood quietly.

Looking up, the eyes and expressions of the pirates were like looking at a group of funny clowns.

Lu Yuan recognized them at a glance. These two people were the young Spirit Guard and Lord Gem that he had met at the landing point of the spaceship and Red Diamond City.

From the looks of the two, they seemed not to be panicked by the pirates' attack and looting. Instead, they had a feeling of being well prepared and ready to fall into a trap.

"Idiot."

At this time, the voice of Sea Wolf sounded in the ears of many pirates.

"Life source ore requires special technology to mine. Instead of wasting energy here, it is better to go down and grab the ready-made ones.

They don't have time to transfer all the ore. There must be a lot of ore in the cave now."

"I understand."

A pirate shouted, "Sea Wolf, you want to capture the Gem Pig alive for the mining technology in his hands.

You knew it was a gold mountain. We can't move it all at once!"

"Humph."

Sea Wolf snorted lightly and didn't say anything, but the meaning he expressed was noncommittal.

At this moment, everyone seemed to finally understand why Sea Wolf promised to take only 30% of the harvest before the action. It turned out that the truly valuable thing was not the life source ore, but the mining technology of the life source ore.

And this technology was in the hands of Lord Gem!

"Stop talking nonsense to me!"

"Huh——"

Hailang, who was at the front of the team, turned around suddenly. The blood-red wolf head on the huge black mecha had scarlet eyes, and the cold and domineering power was like a hurricane whistling over the heads of many star pirates.

"The huge wealth is down there. If you want it, go down and grab it!"

After saying that, the 12-meter-high black mecha suddenly soared into the air, and a strong red light burst out from the whole body, like a burning black meteorite, falling fiercely to the bottom of the cave.

The landing point was exactly in the direction of Lord Gem and the two people guarded by a group of red gold mechas.

"Ahh——"

With Sea Wolf leading the charge, all the star pirates followed suit and went crazy.

The atmosphere on the field suddenly became tense, and hundreds of space pirate mechas followed one after another, descending from the sky and rushing towards the source of wealth in their eyes.

It was also at the same time that the space pirates launched the attack.

The red gold mechas under the cave also took off one after another.

The two groups of mechas met in the air a hundred meters above the bottom of the cave, like two waves of steel torrents, one up and one down, colliding fiercely.

"Boom!"

Just a face-to-face encounter, the black mecha driven by the Sea Wolf directly tore through the siege and blockade of several red gold mechas.

Under the might of the eighth level, the three seventh-level red gold mechas blocking him were thrown away like toys and fell heavily into the distance.

But before the Sea Wolf could move forward again.

Standing below and looking up at this scene, Lord Gem suddenly smiled and took two steps back.

Immediately afterwards, the light gray-haired young man standing next to him raised his eyelids calmly.

"Buzz——"

A burst of extremely dazzling silver light pierced the few darkness in the cave, and all those who were fighting subconsciously narrowed their eyes.

When the dazzling silver light dissipates.

A circle of white air waves visible to the naked eye spread from high altitude, setting off huge winds.

At the center of the battle group, two mechas, one dark black and one silver white, were pressed against each other.

A distorted scene like violently oscillating water waves appeared around the two. It was a strange phenomenon caused by the collision and confrontation of eighth-level mental force fields.

This is an eighth-level battle!

"call--"

Lu Yuan exhaled a breath and jumped down from the white platform.

The mecha body shaped like the Blood Night Slayer drew a graceful arc in mid-air and quickly approached a rose-red mecha in front.

"Don't stay too far away from me. Always wait for my orders."

Lu Yuan passed the terminal and quickly gave instructions to Sonis, then flexibly passed through the mechas and approached the bottom of the cave.

"Whoosh——"

A red gold mecha emitting seven-level energy field fluctuations suddenly came in from one side and rushed towards the door facing Luyuan.

Before he even got close, he was blocked by Sonis who came in a flash and held two flaming red blades.

Lu Yuan randomly locked onto another level 7 mecha and pretended to fight with it, but in fact his eyes were constantly wandering around Lord Gem and the Black Square below.

Lu Yuan's mental strength is only level four, but he has an advantage that no one else can match, that is, he is extremely sensitive to the breath of life energy.

The strong desire for life energy in the core of his body is like a special hormone constantly stimulating the nerves in his brain.

With every breath, this desire grows stronger.

In Lu Yuan's consciousness, the huge ancient ruins cave was peeling away its visual appearance layer by layer.

Just like when he sensed those free evil god factors in the evil mysterious realm of his home star.

The life energy permeating the cave appeared clearly in his mind bit by bit.

Concentration distribution, source.

"Saw it"

Lu Yuan suddenly raised his hand, and the two weapons similar to steel claws extending from the alloy arms flashed in front of him in exquisite and gorgeous arcs, easily tearing open the opponent's seven-level energy protection barrier, leaving two holes on the opponent's body. There are crisscrossing deep claw marks.

Then the level 7 red gold mecha flew back with a shocked look in its eyes. It closed its eyes and murmured in a low voice.

"I saw where you hid them."

At this time, in Lu Yuan's perception, an extremely strong source of the ubiquitous life energy in the cave was located somewhere behind Lord Gemstone.

There should be a hidden secret door there, and behind the secret door there seems to be a hollowed-out storage space.

A large amount of mined life source minerals are present in it.

He couldn't estimate how far it would be. He only knew that it was a lot, very much, far more than he had expected.

After successfully finding the location of the life source mine, Lu Yuan opened his eyes, but there was not much joy on his face, and his expression became unusually calm.

From the Star Pirates launching an attack, to breaking into the ruins cave and fighting fiercely with the red gold mecha guards.

The time that passed in between was not too short.

Logically speaking, Lord Gem should be able to collect and transfer these life source minerals.

But I don't know why he didn't do that.

They didn't even use space storage props to put away these source minerals, and they were just placed in a majestic place less than two kilometers away from the battlefield.

“In the end, there were too many and there was no time to move them.

still"

"on purpose."

At this time, Lu Yuan looked at the location of the life source mine.

In his eyes, this huge pile of life source minerals was like a large plate of bait exuding an alluring aroma.

Just waiting for this group of them to take the bait.
