Chapter 653: Overconfidence
Liu Cheng nodded to show that he understood, and then asked:
"How long will it take you?"
The foreman estimated and replied:
"The current entry is 100 meters per minute, and it is expected to be completed in 50 minutes.
However, the metal content of the subsequent strata will increase, and the speed of drilling will also decrease.
In addition to the possibility of damage to the prepared drilling transportation pipeline and replacement of the drilling transportation pipeline, it is estimated that it will take one and a half hours to reach the energy vein layer."
Liu Cheng nodded and replied:
"I know, if there are alien creatures attracted, I and the mercenary combat troops will help you resist.
You just need to concentrate on mining the energy veins."
After that, the foreman of the miners said goodbye and went back to continue directing the drilling work.
The reason why Liu Che asked you about the time is that the longer this huge movement lasts, the more alien creatures will be attracted.
He is calculating the number of alien creatures that may be encountered in this process.
Liu Cheng came to Augustine and Fu Yan. At this time, the two were discussing work arrangements with Tian Tiantian and Song Ziming.
Liu Cheng said to several people:
"The ground defense work will be handed over to Minister Tian and Minister Song.
Old Fu, you and Senior Augustine will be responsible for the construction of the energy base.
The First Fleet is responsible for reconnaissance and support in the air, so there shouldn't be any problems.
If you find something wrong, notify me immediately and I will go to support you."
Everyone nodded, and then dispersed to perform their respective tasks.
Since Song Ziming was forced to resign as the president of the Veterans Association, he joined the Black Gold Alliance's alliance army.
But on the side of the Aocheng Group, Liu Cheng still gave Song Ziming the position of deputy minister of the armed forces.
It can be regarded as special care for Song Ziming.
However, based on the military command ability that Song Ziming showed at the Veterans Association, he is fully qualified for the position of deputy minister of the armed forces.
"Boom boom boom boom..."
The drilling machine kept drilling the ground, and the huge friction and vibration sound of the metal pipe and the metal rock layer on the ground spread along the ground to the surrounding distance.
About twenty minutes later, a large number of alien creatures finally gathered and attacked the place where the vibration came from.
The First Fleet of the Aocheng Group, which was in the sky, discovered these incoming alien creatures at the first time. Fat Tiger asked Liu Cheng through the video:
"Chairman Tucheng, there are waves of alien creatures attacking from the east and the west, and the total number is about tens of thousands.
Do we need the First Fleet of the Aocheng Group to take the initiative to attack and eliminate them all?"
Liu Cheng was about to give an order, but Augustine beside him put a hand on his shoulder.
Liu Cheng turned his head to look at Augustine, and saw Augustine shaking his head to him without saying anything, so he understood what Augustine meant.
He replied to Fat Tiger:
"If the First Fleet bombards, the bodies of the alien creatures will be destroyed, which will be detrimental to the dissection of our garbage man employees.
Anyway, tens of thousands of alien creatures are not a big threat to the ground mercenary forces.
Your First Fleet should not take action."
"Understood, the First Fleet is on standby for support at any time."
After hanging up the communication, Augustine said to Liu Cheng:
"My Eye of Luck can sense that the alien creatures attacking from these two directions have a lot of good luck, which should be able to purify a lot of star cores that you and I need."
Liu Cheng nodded and said:
"It may also be a star core that is useful to Fu Yan and Tian Tiantian."
Augustine smiled and said:
"It seems that your clone who stayed in the starry sky behind has dissected a lot of good things.
Tell me honestly, how many star cores have you dissected in total?"
Liu Cheng stretched out a finger and gestured a one.
Augustine murmured:
"More than a hundred, that's a lot.
But how will your clone transport them back?"
Liu Cheng explained:
"If I bring Energy Planet No. 1, I think it will be too ostentatious.
So I asked the clone to transport those star cores back to Black Stone Planet first.
With a large number of star core fragments, the clone can keep flying for a long time without dissipating."
Augustine was very satisfied with Liu Cheng's approach. He smiled and asked:
"Will you still fight with the alien creatures later?
Your superpowers should not have been fully tested in actual combat, right? "
Liu Cheng said calmly:
"Let's see the situation.
If there are high-level alien creatures, I will definitely take action to reduce the casualties of employees.
However, if the attacking alien creatures are all second- and third-level, I don't need to take action.
After all, some of my superpowers are not suitable for public display. "
Augustine was surprised to hear this. He didn't expect that Liu Cheng was not only hiding his abilities, but also hiding something from himself and others.
Well, it is possible that he hid several things.
After all, that is twenty-nine star cores.
Even if two or three star cores merge and mutate into a superpower, this kid has at least gained more than a dozen new superpowers.
"Boom..."
The ground shook again.
However, the employees of the mercenary forces of the Aocheng Group knew that this new vibration was not caused by their drilling.
It was the alien creature swarm that was about to rush to the vicinity.
Tens of thousands of Aocheng Group's superpower mercenaries were ready for battle, and half of the Aocheng Group's mercenary forces participated in this operation.
Tian Tiantian and Song Ziming commanded from above:
"For the purpose of dissecting the tissues and organs of alien creatures, we will try not to use artillery to solve the alien creatures that can be killed by superpowers.
But everyone should do what they can, and artillery and other attack methods are not prohibited.
Don't cause unnecessary casualties for the sake of their own performance."
Most of the Aocheng Group's mercenaries are superpowers of level 2 or 3, and there are even many superpowers of level 4.
When they saw the alien swarms coming, they were not afraid, but somewhat excited.
These alien swarms that were attracted did not come to them because they broke through the defense of the 9728 Corps troops that landed on the periphery.
They were originally in the defense circle of the 9728 Corps and in the basin terrain.
Otherwise, the number would definitely not be just tens of thousands, at least tens of millions.
They also understand that this is not like the Black Sand Star Region, it is a star region planet that humans have never controlled.
Even if the Terra Zerg Leviathan transport group failed to come to reinforce and support, the alien creatures they have to face are much more terrifying in both quantity and quality than the alien creatures encountered in the Black Sand Star Region.
But what if there are powerful alien creatures?
They also have powerful psychics.
Ever since the employees of the Aocheng Group saw Chairman Tucheng killing multiple level six alien creatures in the starry sky, their self-confidence is a bit too inflated.
