Chapter 1910: Underground Crystal Mine Cave

Xia Qing, lying on the Xiong Wang's shoulder, looked at the high and low, claw-and-tooth-baring death-evolutionary plants beside her, and her own heart was also beating wildly: Is the Xiong Wang taking her to mine?!

Is it?

It is!

The Xiong Wang ran southeast from the humid and sultry Sixty-Second Mountain north of the python lake, crossed the Sixty-First Mountain with dense vegetation, and entered the core territory of the Northern Bear Group—the Sixtieth Mountain.

Along the way, Xia Qing saw three giant bears and four bears of normal size. Every bear that saw the Xiong Wang—including the Xiong Wang's cub, the little bear sister—either stuffed food into its mouth quickly or picked up food and ran away. This scene was truly very shocking and also very fresh.

"Roar————"

When the Xiong Wang ran under the second peak, the angry roar of the Xiong Wang's partner came from the mountainside. Xia Qing's liver couldn't help but tremble; a giant mother bear with cubs had explosive combat power. Moreover, this was a giant mother bear that didn't like her. Does the Xiong Wang's family live in a crystal mine cave?!

Why did the giant mother bear not like Xia Qing? This had to start from last year, when the gluttonous little bear and Does Daigua were knocked down by Hui Sixth invaders using anesthetic medicine...

Hearing its partner's roar, the Xiong Wang stopped advancing, grabbed Xia Qing from its shoulder, and stuffed her into a mountain crack.

This crack was about half a meter wide, below was mountain stone soaked by stream water, and above was a sky as thin as a grass rope.

Xia Qing had studied hydrology and geology courses with the Broken-Waist Wolf and had mastered some professional knowledge, more or less. She could judge that this mountain crack should have been formed during the violent crustal movement of Blue Star in the two years before the natural disaster, based on the mountain stones in the water and the plants and moss on the stone walls on both sides of the crack.

The Xiong Wang put her here, wanting to tell her: There is crystal in this crack?

Shouldn't crystal grow inside a mine cave?

"Roar——"

The Xiong Wang roared, and used its large paw to stuff Xia Qing further into the crack, stuffing Xia Qing into the darkness.

She understood the Xiong Wang's meaning. She placed her large backpack outside the cave and quickly took out a few pieces of equipment from inside and put them into the cross-body bag at her waist. The half-meter-wide crack could not accommodate an adult giant bear, and Xia Qing also needed to move forward sideways. Although the food in her backpack had all been eaten by the Xiong Wang, there were still dozens of jin of other supplies inside.

Weapons? Of course, they were carried on her person. Xia Qing adjusted the positions of the weapons and supplies she carried, turned on the top light and camera of her protective mask, and walked sideways stepping on the stream water.

Why turn on the top light directly instead of using infrared or low-light night vision goggles? Nonsense, this is the Xiong Wang's core territory, and she is a guest brought by the Xiong Wang; there is no need to be sneaky at all.

The stream water wound down from between the stone cracks, converging into a thin stream of water, then flowing into the stream at the bottom of the mountain crack, flowing toward a lower place.

The further she walked, the darker the light became, and the lower the temperature became. Xia Qing, wearing a summer protective suit, felt obvious coolness.

When the stream water was about to submerge her protective boots, Xia Qing took out a fishing suit from her cross-body bag and put it on. This was high-level equipment she had exchanged with Big Boss Wu for 23,000 points. The thickness of this fishing suit was less than half of the fishing suits on the market, but its waterproof and thermal insulation performance was two levels higher.

After walking forward for about thirty meters along the mountain crack, the moss on the stone walls gradually decreased, replaced by a layer of grayish-white mineral deposits, which shone with dim silver light under the illumination of the top light. The stream water under her feet became shallower, and the sound of the water echoed in the narrow crack, like countless small hammers hitting the stone walls, and also hitting Xia Qing's eardrums.

At this time, the bear roar in the mountain crack instead brought Xia Qing a trace of security.

She walked forward for about five minutes, and the half-meter-wide crack finally became one meter wide, two meters wide... The stone walls on both sides no longer pressed against Xia Qing's body, and the height of the top also increased, and the suffocation of being squeezed by the large mountain finally eased a bit.

Xia Qing quickened her pace, bypassed the corner of the crack, and then quickly retreated one step, sticking to the stone wall and holding her breath. After reacting for two seconds, she poked her head out again and looked for a few seconds before moving forward again.

In the twelve years of natural disasters—no, in her lifetime, Xia Qing had never seen such a beautiful mountain cave.

If the mountain cave where she first stepped into the hidden valley of the Fifty-Ninth Mountain could be considered the tip of the pyramid, then this mountain cave was the tip of the pyramid on the tip of the pyramid!

Turning off the top light, there was darkness before her eyes.

Turning on the top light again, countless light spots of different sizes and brightness surged out from inside the cave, as if Xia Qing had already left Blue Star and stepped into the brilliant galaxy.

What color is this? The color of points!

That is, it's her; if it were the Broken-Waist Wolf who came today, it would have gone crazy by now!

Xia Qing raised her hand to look at the air toxin detector on her arm, and listened carefully to the movement in the cave, confirming it was safe before taking a step forward. The angle of the light changed slightly, and the entire cave seemed to come alive, beautiful beyond words.

A ninth-level-and-a-half visual evolver quickly adapted to the light here and began to look at this huge underground cave.

The dome of the cave, up to thirty meters high, had stalactites growing downward like ice cones, emitting moist luster under the illumination of the top light. On the ground were stalagmites of various shapes, sizes, and thicknesses.

The most beautiful and bright things in this cave were not these stalactites and stalagmites, but the crystals of various colors embedded in the stone walls, stalactites, and stalagmites.

Large and small, milky white, purple, pink, light green, light yellow crystals were like clusters of blooming ice flowers. These ice flowers were reflected in the shallow water pool in the center of the cave, swaying with the water droplets falling on the water pool and Xia Qing's heartbeat.

Ding-dong, ding-dong—

The dripping sound like a clock awakened Xia Qing's sanity. She quickly stabilized her breathing and heartbeat, stepped on the moist broken stones and entered the cave, nimbly sampled a few stone blocks, and took out the death-element detector to confirm that the pool water was green-light quality, not feeling surprised at all.

If the water quality was not good, the Xiong Wang could not live here.

As for whether it was pollution-free spring water, it had to wait until Xia Qing returned to detect the Yi-element content before it could be confirmed. If it was pollution-free spring water, she could not hand over the water samples here to her idol.

Just like the Head Wolf and the Broken-Waist Wolf didn't want other humans to know that there was pollution-free spring water on the Fifty-Fifth Mountain, the Xiong Wang certainly didn't want the core secrets in its territory to be known by more humans.

After the sampling was finished, it was time to pick crystals.

Crystals were very brittle, and prying or breaking them directly would easily break them. Xia Qing turned around in the cave and harvested a few small crystals, and finally found a colorless and transparent crystal pillar with a natural crack at the bottom.

She pulled out the crowbar inserted behind her back, lengthened it, tightened it, carefully inserted the flat end into the crack at the bottom of the crystal pillar, and tested the stress point of the rock bit by bit. After finding the position, she held her breath and pressed hard.

With a crisp sound of "click," the connection between the base of the crystal pillar and the surrounding rock broke, and Xia Qing obtained a 1.8-meter-long crystal pillar!

Then Xia Qing took a look at the gap left on the base stone next to it after the crystal pillar was pried off, turned, and left this underground mine cave that made her dazzled. ===== CHAPTER 1911 =====

Then Xia Qing glanced at the gap left on the foundation stone next to her after the crystal pillar was pried off, turned, and left this underground mine that had left her dazzled and mesmerized.
