In less than half a day, the preparations for departure have been completed.

The Meteorite Team was originally a small family and a small business, but after receiving the help of the fire, especially the supplies provided by the fat man, it is now much more generous.

In addition to the most precious tidal fighter, which also integrates the functions of carrying and combat, everyone's individual combat equipment has been replaced with energy weapons.

There are also four sentinel mechas, but according to the standards of the Zero City permanent team, they are equipped with a comprehensive weapon and defense system. In addition to the built-in AI, it can also be controlled by Roddy with the Mechanical Heart skill and become a semi-manual mode if necessary.

Plus two thunderstorm tanks and a set of A-level protective suits each have... These pieces of things combined are enough to make the Meteorite Team considered first-class among all the Awakening Team.

Of course, compared with the former Zero City permanent teams, it is still not enough to watch. But now, even Zero City has been destroyed, and the remaining people of the permanent team have long disappeared, and I don’t know where to hide. I just don’t know if the dungeon will be forced to participate this time.

In addition to the existing equipment, Xia Xiaolei also used all the remaining points of the team to buy a large amount of ammunition and healing props. Considering that this dungeon is probably ancient time and space, and it lasts for a long time, he also prepared enough food and water for the team in January to store it in Chen Xiaolian's storage space.

"But there is still another problem now, that is the mineral of the Star Sand." After Xia Xiaolei reported the existing equipment, Roddy added with a worrying look: "The original promise of Daoshan Fire Sea was to purchase our Star Sands with three times the mining cost, but now, Zero City has been destroyed. Although the team of Daoshan Fire Sea may still have residual people, it is impossible to restore to its original grand occasion. There is no hope for them to still acquire these Star Sands minerals according to the original conditions. Moreover, we can't even establish them with them now.

At that time, you brought 10,000 points to make the Xingchen Sand mining area run at full capacity, but I think there will be no subsequent points added. So, what should I do with this mining area?"

Chen Xiaolian frowned.

After the destruction of Zero City, he was busy going to Romania and later entered the end of the world, but he did not consider these things.

The situation now is indeed a bit troublesome.

It was like a factory, which received investment from a big buyer, established a complete production line, signed a proper purchase and sales agreement, and everything started to run, but the big buyer suddenly went bankrupt!

But the products produced by this factory cannot find any other sales channels on the market.

Continue to keep mining? But this means that one day will be more than one day of mining. Qiao Yifeng was not saying anything at that time. With the size of the meteorite team, he could not use so much star sand at all. He put the white points into the mining area, and in exchange for a lot of star sand that could only be thrown there.

Stop mining? But when Zero City issued its mission, the mining area had a usage limit of only one year, and now Zero City has been destroyed. After the expiration of one year, the mining area may disappear directly or may not be used by any team. It was finally obtained the ownership of this mining area. If it was just for nothing to stop there and not use it, it would be a waste.

Of course, Chen Xiaolian is not sure what mechanism the mining area mission issued by Zero City is, and what changes will happen after Zero City is destroyed. It is also possible that this mining area will be occupied by the meteorite team forever in the future. However, Chen Xiaolian dares not look forward to such a good thing now.

What's more, the mining investment of star sand is not evenly consumed!

When the man in black transferred money to Chen Xiaolian, he said that the money could support the operation of the mining area for about three months, and Chen Xiaolian did not make any detailed calculations. But later after he actually started the operation of the mining area, he realized that this was not enough at all!

There are eight mines, each mine has to pay 100 points per month, which is a one-time payment. Before this month, even if the mine is closed, the points will not be returned.

There are also mining robots. In addition to the mining investment of one 100 points per day, the initial purchase also requires 100 points per unit.

After getting the points transferred by Qiao Yifeng, Chen Xiaolian bought the number of robots directly. There were eight mines, each with eight robots, and 6,400 points were spent.

In addition, the mining has been in the past ten days, and the daily mining expenses have dropped by 8,000 points. At this rate, in less than a month, those 10,000 points will be spent completely.

Chen Xiaolian calculated the speed of spending money at that time. He originally planned to contact people from Lingcheng again and ask for some operating funds. But so many things came up, but they were so delayed that they were forgotten.

"Let it do this..." Chen Xiaolian thought for a while: "Let it continue to rotate like this first, don't slow down the speed. There are still about 2,000 points left now, which is enough to support it and then run at full speed until the end of the first month. Stopping the robot will only save dozens of points every day, but the cost of the loss is too high."

"Understand." Roddy nodded: "What if the first month is over?"

"There are more than ten days left, and the first month will end. If you still can't find the source of funds at that time, close the other seven mines and leave only one." Chen Xiaolian gritted his teeth: "Although Xingchen Sand is a good thing, it is indeed not something we can afford now. But..."

He looked at Roddy: "How much star sand we have accumulated now?"

"It's only half a month since I opened the mine, only less than thirty kilograms..." Roddy's eyes suddenly lit up: "What?! Do you want to use my mecha?!"

"Stop dreaming." Chen Xiaolian rolled his eyes: "You can control the mecha within 24 hours now for only 18 seconds. Under such a time limit, no matter how much it is strengthened, it will not be much improvement. It is a waste."

"Damn it, I'm so happy." Roddy was dejected.

"But--" Chen Xiaolian changed his tone: "It is not meant that it cannot be used to strengthen your mecha, but it does not mean that it cannot be used for you. Don't we still have four sentinel mechas?"

"That...is pretty good, but..." Hearing this, Roddy recovered a little bit: "Thirty kilograms of star sand are only enough to partially strengthen the armor system of the four mechas."

"When did I say I want to strengthen the four units?" Chen Xiaolian smiled: "Although these sentinel mechas are very high, they will never become our main equipment in the future. They are just temporary overuse. Moreover, we spent so many points to save up such a little star sand, so we can't just waste it. If you give you ten kilograms and use them on a mecha, it should be enough to improve its armor performance by a large amount. This armor will be used as current conventional equipment."

"That's all? What about the rest?" Roddy curled his lips.

"This time the dungeon is so big. Before officially entering the dungeon, the surrounding area will be very lively. Then we will contact each other nearby to see if we can find a buyer. If it is only 20 kilograms, we may be able to find a team that can eat." Chen Xiaolian looked at Roddy: "By the way, what valuable content have you seen on the Internet?"

"I flipped through the secret forums between several awakened people, and the forums were basically in full swing." Roddy smiled: "Everyone basically thinks that the difficulty of this dungeon is beyond imagination. Someone has suggested that I contact it before the dungeon begins."

After saying that, Roddy took out his cell phone and opened a page: "It's this guy."

Chen Xiaolian took the phone and looked at it. The sender of this message was a random number id. He wrote a lot of his analysis of this copy. Finally, he said that he and his team would arrive in the mission area two days before the beginning of the copy. If there are teams or individual participants who want to share information and jointly formulate a battle plan, they can contact him.

However, Chen Xiaolian looked through the reply below, but no one contacted him directly.

"Even if you want to contact me, you will use private messages, and it is generally unlikely to reply." Roddy explained: "So, do we need to contact me?"

"Of course. Let's go after handling the family matters." Chen Xiaolian nodded without hesitation and suddenly remembered something again: "By the way, where is the child I sent back from the end of the world?"

Tire patted his head apologetically: "You said Duoduo? I forgot to tell you, I live in the resort. You haven't come back, and we don't know how to resettle him. We only asked about some basic information. The name is Wang Duo, ten years old, fourth grade in elementary school, and home in Xijing..."

"Then send it back." Chen Xiaolian nodded: "At this age, you can remember your home address and parents' names. Anyway, the tide fighter is very fast, so we can send him to Xijing first and then to the dungeon area."

Tire hesitated for a moment and whispered: "-The child is very smart. He knows that he has died once. He was hit by a car while crossing the road. Send him back, his parents..."

Chen Xiaolian was stunned, reacted, and smiled bitterly: "There are too many things happening recently, and I'm so stupid that I'm so stupid. So, he has become a black household?"

"Yes." Tire looked at Chen Xiaolian: "These days, Hakikisi has been taking care of him and waiting for you to come back to make arrangements. Now it seems that we must... adopt him."

"I'm afraid that's all that is the only way to do it at the moment." Chen Xiaolian sighed and said to Roddy: "You are the only one who can do this. Can you arrange an identity and student status for Duoduo? "

"No problem." Roddy nodded and walked out the door: "I'll make a call."

After a while, Roddy pushed the door back in and smiled and said, "Okay, it's already arranged."

"So fast?" Chen Xiaolian was surprised.

Roddy smiled and said, "It's not that fast, I just explain it first. We will set off to participate in the dungeon later. We can't wait for everything to be done before we set off. I asked the old man to find a friend and go to get the identity first. I guess after we come back, my academic qualifications will be almost the same."
