Chapter 357 Observing Ore 4

Chapter 357 Observing Ore 4

The sun shines through the sparse clouds, dappling on a valley covered with dense vegetation. Here, Lin Zhi and Zhang Ying are leading an expedition team composed of a mixture of Zerg and humans. Their goal is to explore a legendary mineral vein, which is said to contain rare minerals that can greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of the Zerg.

Lin Zhi, a traveler from Earth, has become proficient in the language and skills of the Zerg after years of adaptation and learning, and has become the soul of this team. Zhang Ying is Lin Zhi's first friend in the Zerg world, a brave and wise Zerg woman. Her existence makes Lin Zhi no longer lonely in her journey in the other world.

"Everyone be careful, the vegetation here is extremely dense and may hide unknown dangers." Lin Zhi's voice was steady and powerful. He walked at the front of the team, observing his surroundings vigilantly.

Following closely behind were the Zerg brothers, Wang Jun and Wang Kai. Wang Jun was tall and strong, and was the team's meat shield; Wang Kai was agile and good at reconnaissance and tracking. The two brothers were inseparable, working in perfect harmony, and provided a solid guarantee for the team.

"Brother Linzhi, we found some traces that look like they were left by some large creature passing by." Wang Kai reported in a low voice. His eyes were sharp and he did not miss any details.

Lin Zhi nodded, signaling the team to stop moving forward. He walked to where Wang Kai pointed and carefully observed the traces on the ground. These traces were of varying depths, and were obviously left by some heavyweight creature moving quickly.

"It seems that our goal is not far away. Everyone should be vigilant and prepared to deal with possible challenges." After Lin Zhi said this, he continued to lead the team to explore forward.

Soon, they came to an open area, and in front of them was a steep mountain wall, which was covered with strange patterns and flickered with faint light. This was the place where the legendary mineral veins were located.

"These lines... could they be the natural formation of minerals?" Zhang Ying exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and excitement.

Lin Zhi approached the mountain wall and gently touched the lines. A weak energy wave came from his fingertips, which shocked his heart. He realized that these minerals not only contained powerful energy, but also might hide some unknown secrets.

"We need to collect some samples for research." Lin Zhi gave the order. He turned and looked at the four Zerg brothers and sisters - Li?, Li Ming, Li Hua, and Li Li. These four were young talents in the Zerg, each with unique skills and wisdom.

"Li?, you are responsible for collecting mineral samples; Li Ming, you are responsible for protecting Li? to prevent accidents; Li Hua, Li Li, you are responsible for guarding the surroundings and ensuring our safety." Lin Zhi assigned the tasks in a clear and orderly manner.

The four siblings acted quickly. Li? carefully knocked on the mountain wall with a special tool, and pieces of ore that flashed with strange light were collected. Li Ming followed closely beside Li?, always ready to deal with possible dangers.

At the same time, Hua Yuan and Zhang Yuan, two Zerg women who are proficient in herbal medicine and treatment, are preparing emergency medicines and supplies for the team. Although they are not directly involved in the collection of ore, their presence gives the team more confidence when facing unknown risks.

"Brother Linzhi, the sample collection is complete." Li?'s voice came, he was holding a small piece of ore that was sparkling with dazzling light in his hand, with a proud smile on his face.

Lin Zhi took the ore and looked at it carefully. This ore was not only hard, but also contained amazing energy fluctuations. He knew that the gains from this expedition would far exceed their expectations.

"Okay, let's return to the base immediately and hand these samples over to the scientists for research." Lin Zhi gave the order to retreat. He knew very well that the discovery of these minerals would have a profound impact on the relationship between the Zerg and humans, and might even change the fate of the entire Zerg world.

On the way back, the team encountered several attacks by small herds of beasts, but under the leadership of Lin Zhi and Zhang Ying, they successfully repelled the enemy with their extraordinary wisdom and courage and returned to the base safely.

This expedition not only gave Linzhi a deeper understanding of the Zerg world, but also made him deeply appreciate the power of teamwork. He knew that in the days to come, they would face more challenges and opportunities, but as long as they were united, nothing could stop them from moving forward.

As the afterglow of the setting sun gradually dissipated in the sky, Lin Zhi, Zhang Ying and their team embarked on a new journey with full harvest and hope.

The sun shines through the sparse clouds, dappling on a strange mineral vein. This mineral vein is an important discovery of Lin Zhi and Zhang Ying's recent expedition. It not only contains rich rare minerals, but also the key to unlocking the secrets of the Zerg world.

Lin Zhi stood at the edge of the ore vein, his eyes were sharp and his expression was stern. He was wearing a special exploration suit, which could not only withstand the harsh environment of the Zerg world, but also isolate the strange energy fluctuations emitted by the ore vein to a certain extent. Zhang Ying was debugging the analyzer in her hand, and her face was also focused and vigilant.

"Brother Lin, look at the texture of these ores. They are different from anything we have seen in the database." Zhang Ying's voice was a little excited as she pointed to a piece of ore sample that was emitting a faint light.

Lin Zhi nodded, knowing the importance of this discovery. Since crossing into the Zerg world, they have been looking for clues that can strengthen the connection between humans and Zerg, and this mineral vein may be the key.

"We have to be careful. The energy fluctuations here are extremely strong and might bring us unnecessary trouble." Lin Zhi reminded, his eyes scanning the surroundings as if he was wary of something.

At this moment, a low roar came from the dense forest not far away, and then two burly Zerg brothers, Wang Jun and Wang Kai, walked out of the bushes. They were covered in heavy carapaces, holding huge bone clubs, and their eyes were shining with curiosity and vigilance.

"They are humans! How come they are here?" Wang Jun's voice was low and powerful, his eyes fixed on Lin Zhi and Zhang Ying.

Wang Kai seemed more cautious. He slowly took a few steps forward and sniffed the air. "They don't show hostility, but we can't take it lightly."

Seeing this, Lin Zhi quickly raised his hands to indicate that he had no ill intentions: "We are here to explore, and we don't mean to disturb you. Do you know this mineral vein?"

Wang Jun and Wang Kai looked at each other with a hint of surprise in their eyes. They had never seen such a bold human being who dared to communicate with them so openly in the Zerg territory.

"Mineral vein? We know of its existence, but have never explored it in depth. The energy there is so strong that even we Zerg dare not set foot there easily." Wang Jun said truthfully.

At this moment, a burst of crisp laughter broke the tense atmosphere. The four Zerg siblings - Li?, Li Ming, Li Hua and Li Li, and their partners Hua Yuan and Zhang Yuan, came from the other direction. Their arrival added some relaxation to the tense atmosphere.

"Oh, isn't this Linzhi and Zhang Ying? Why are you here too?" Li Li asked lively, with curiosity and friendliness flashing in her eyes.

Lin Zhi smiled and nodded to them: "We discovered this mineral vein and are studying it. What about you? Are you here to explore as well?"

Li shook his head, a bit mysterious on his face: "We are here to prevent a disaster. This mineral vein is actually an unstable energy source. If it is not controlled, it is likely to cause a huge explosion and threaten the entire Zerg world."

Lin Zhi and Zhang Ying's hearts tightened when they heard this. They didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary ore vein could hide such a huge crisis.

"Then we have to do something. We can't let it endanger innocent people." Zhang Ying said firmly, with determination flashing in her eyes.

Thus, an exploration and protection operation for the ore veins quietly began. Lin Zhi, Zhang Ying and Zerg brothers Wang Jun, Wang Kai, as well as the four Zerg siblings and Li Yuan and Zhang Yuan, worked together to face the upcoming challenges.

In the process of exploration, they not only have to face the unknown dangers hidden in the ore veins, but also have to unlock the secrets behind the ore veins and its potential impact on the entire Zerg world and even the human world. Every time they go deep into the ore veins, it is a test of life and death, but it is these tests that make the friendship and trust between them deeper.

Exploring this mysterious and unknown land, in addition to the two humans, there are also Zerg brothers Wang Jun and Wang Kai, as well as four Zerg siblings Li?, Li Ming, Li Hua, and Li Li, plus two intelligent human allies Hua Yuan and Zhang Yuan.

One day, they came to an old mine abandoned by the Zerg. The mine was filled with a faint smell of sulfur, and all kinds of strange-shaped ores were scattered on the ground, many of which had mottled traces of repair. Lin Zhi looked at these ores with a frown, and she keenly realized that these ores seemed to hide some secrets.

"Zhang Ying, look at the repair marks on these ores. Are they a little strange?" Lin Zhi pointed at a piece of ore and whispered to Zhang Ying.

Zhang Ying carefully observed the ore after hearing this. As expected, he found that the repair marks on the ore were not formed naturally, but were the result of human intervention. These marks showed a strange pattern, as if some mysterious repair ritual was being performed.

Zhang Ying frowned slightly, staring at the ores in front of him, his heart full of doubts and puzzlement. The surface of these ores was as smooth as a mirror, without the slightest flaw, as if they had never experienced erosion and wear and tear over the years.

He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "It's really strange. These ores look like they were just mined. There is no damage at all. What's going on?"

Various possible explanations flashed through Zhang Ying's mind, but none of them convinced him completely. He pondered and suddenly thought of a possibility, and his face became solemn.

"Could it be that a high-level Zerg alchemist has been here before?" His voice was low and serious, as if this speculation shocked him greatly.

The Zerg alchemists are known for their superb skills and unique abilities, and they are able to use various mysterious powers to repair and transform items. If there are really high-level Zerg alchemists here, it is not surprising that these ores have been repaired so perfectly.

The more Zhang Ying thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was very high. He decided to continue investigating in depth to see if he could find more clues about the Zerg alchemist.

Wang Jun and Wang Kai heard the conversation and came over. Although they were Zerg, they knew as much about alchemy as humans. Wang Jun looked at the ore carefully, frowning: "The repair marks on these ores seem to be different from our Zerg alchemy."

“Indeed,” Wang Kai echoed, his voice revealing a thoughtful tone, “These objects look like they have been repaired by an older and more powerful alchemy. This alchemy obviously surpasses the level of technology we have today, and it contains a mysterious power that is difficult for us to understand.”

At this time, Li?, Li Ming, Li Hua, and Li Li, four siblings, also gathered around. Although they were young, they were well-known among the Zerg for being smart and studious. Li? pointed to the repair marks on a piece of ore and said, "Look, the shape and arrangement of these marks are a bit like the 'ore heart' in our Zerg legend, aren't they?"

"Mineral Heart?" Lin Zhi and Zhang Ying were surprised when they heard this. They knew that the "Mineral Heart" was an extremely precious mineral in the Zerg legend, which was said to have the ability to repair all minerals.

"If the 'Heart of Mineral' really exists here, then we must find it!" Zhang Ying's eyes flashed with determination.

So, everyone took action, like a group of foraging ants, they spread out and began to search for the legendary "Heart of Mineral" separately.

The edge of the mine was crowded with people, all staring with wide eyes, not missing any corner. Some people used their hands to dig through the thick soil, some used shovels to dig hard rocks, and some held magnifying glasses to carefully observe the texture of each piece of ore.

Hua Yuan and Zhang Yuan stood aside, not searching blindly like the others, but quietly observing the topography of the mine and the distribution of the ore, exchanging opinions from time to time.

"Look, the distribution of minerals here seems to have a certain pattern." Hua Yuan said, pointing to an area.

Zhang Yuan looked in the direction he pointed and nodded: "Yes, and the color and texture of these ores are also different from those in other places."

The two began to study the characteristics of these minerals in depth, and by analyzing their composition and formation process, they tried to infer the possible location of the "heart of the mineral".

After hours of searching, they finally found the "Mineral Heart" deep in a hidden mine. It was a piece of ore that emitted a faint glow, and its shape and color were completely different from ordinary ores. More importantly, it was surrounded by a powerful healing power that made people feel awe.
