Chapter 1171

Up.

"Captain, have you found something?"

Someone saw the captain's body trembling and curiously asked.

The captain handed the telescope over and said, "Look for yourselves—is that Qingshan shaped like a giant serpent?"

The crew members were baffled.

A giant serpent?

What kind of giant serpent could be as large as a mountain range?

They raised the telescope and examined it closely, their expressions gradually turning grave.

"It really does resemble serpent scales. But these scales are too enormous—if these truly are serpent scales, how massive would the serpent be?"

"No way?"

Others, curious, shouted out, urging the man to pass them the telescope and join the crowd gathering to look.

In a moment, everyone had taken a turn.

That 0.1 Qingshan was indeed covered in serpent-like scales—utterly shocking.

"But it can't be a serpent!"

"If that mountain range were a serpent, it would violate all scientific laws—no such creature could exist in nature. This must be a peculiar mineral vein, which is why it takes this shape."

"

At this point, the captain had figured it out and offered his explanation.

After hearing it, the others found it reasonable.

In reality, some minerals do naturally form into various shapes.

For example, fluorite and tourmaline often appear in nature with regular, almost artificially polished forms.

This serpent-scale-like mountain range could indeed be a new type of mineral deposit.

"Everyone, push harder! Discovering a new mineral—any of us could become famous!"

The captain rallied the crew, pointing at Qingshan, "Keep going!"

With a goal in sight, everyone's energy surged; they nearly ran toward Qingshan.
