Chapter 274: Chapter 248: The Mine Containing Supernatural Elements! (Two-in-One 5000 Words!)_3

"Is... Is that so?"

"The specific geological survey would require dispatching a more professional exploration team."

"Our carried equipment is too simple, many of the supernatural elements’ components can’t be analyzed."

"But mining on the Moon is a bit difficult... the cost is also too high."

"The cost is high because it hasn’t been scaled up; once we establish an appropriate industrial chain, the cost should significantly decrease."

The commanders at Earth’s headquarters collected themselves, fervently analyzing the immense value this crater brought.

The traditional economic system was beyond estimation...

Everything had to be overthrown!

Moon crater produces loads of supernatural raw materials, Qingtian Hospital churns out Ideal Energy "source", and the Game Training Camp provides the integration function of "Strange Objects."

Once this is done, a complete industrial chain would be established, wouldn’t it?

Things like Rune Blades could be produced on a large scale!

"Gentlemen, this matter is actually secondary; don’t let the immediate benefits cloud your judgment."

The number one elder of the Black-clothed Guard said, "Let’s not even mention that this crater is on the far side of the Moon, and the difficulty in its development. With our current level of technology, it would take a decade to exploit it fully. Even small-scale mining would require the dispatch of numerous astronauts, and then there’s the cost estimation..."

"We should first get past this immediate hurdle, right? What if the Moon exploded, how many could survive? If people are gone, what use are the benefits?"

However, he was privately sending out notices, urgently researching more powerful rockets for moon landing, and the feasibility of mining the Moon should also be studied swiftly!

"Indeed, we should first clarify the current crisis, then consider other matters," agreed Mysterious Bureau Chief Roger, though his words did not completely reveal his real intentions.

Privately, he was devising ways to convince the congress to restart the super rocket "Saturn V"...

Benefits moved hearts, and this opportunity could not be allowed to be snatched by the Black-clothed Guard again!

"We must quickly clarify the distribution of ores in the crater," thought Roger.

Europe’s leaders were also discussing among themselves about uniting and acting together.

The Great Emperor of Europe gave nothing away with his stoic expression, pondering unknown thoughts...

The global-level interstellar competition, fueled by immense interests, had officially begun!

...

Of course, while great powers openly competed, smaller countries only considered which side to take and the crumbs they could get.

Many were discussing why such a density of supernatural elements appeared in the crater?

The reason was not complicated: A powerful Idealism being was being born at the core of the Moon, "inadvertently" distorting the surrounding matter.

An immature Idealism being, compared to a mature one, had a stronger "distortion" effect.

Much like the Great Xia Country in traditional fantasy novels, an "unborn being" possesses "Innate Qi." In the shallow layers of the Etheric Abyss, the appearance of countless beings brought about a Humean distortion effect, giving birth to traces of Mithril, Refined Gold, and other mysterious elements.

On the other hand, once truly born, this "Innate Qi" dissipates completely, unable to distort the surrounding matter anymore.

With this explanation, the being inside the Moon must be incredibly powerful; its very existence twisted the nearby matter, creating a massive crater.

...

Finally, after a long journey, Li Qingshan, Smith, and Jenny arrived at the center of the crater.

"Oh, God, what is this place? The Devil’s treasury? This rock... what are these powdery particles on it?"

Smith murmured to himself, pale-faced, as he held the rock and studied it for a long time.

"This rock alone could make me money for ten lifetimes."

He could barely contain his excitement.

Due to the low gravity, the trio had been hopping forward like kangaroos.

However, Smith was deeply aware that the better the detected materials, the stronger the creature hidden there must be.

The terrible psychological pressure felt like thousands of needles; every step forward required an immense amount of courage.

"We can’t possibly be expected to kill this monster, right?" Smith’s forehead beaded with cold sweat as he blurted out absurdities.

"Shut your mouth, Mr. Smith, you are too tense," Divination Master Jenny said irritably, "You’ve been holding that broken rock for 15 minutes; surely you’re not thinking of taking it back with you, are you?"

"We’re like a trio of adventurers from a fantasy novel. After all the effort we’ve put in to arrive at the devil’s lair, it shouldn’t be excessive to take a bit of treasure back... of course, I wouldn’t hog it for myself; I just want to bring it back for the lab to study."

Smith stubbornly said, "The Moon Landing Module gives us permission to take back 150 kilograms of rock fragments. If we use a Dimension Box, we can bring back even more ore."

Jenny said, "We can’t use the Dimension Box anymore; it might be on the verge of going berserk."

Smith complained, "This isn’t allowed, that isn’t allowed; are we supposed to just stay here and wait for its birth?"

Jenny swallowed, trying to sense something.

No, it wasn’t working.

Her initial burst of insight had dried up to nothing.

Or maybe, was this being too strong, blocking her Spiritual Sense?

"Quiet, both of you, let’s advance a little further; just 2 more kilometers and we’ll be at the core area of the Meteor Crater," Li Qingshan said, swallowing nervously, as he soothed his teammates.

"Bring out your courage! We’ve come this far, we can’t back down now."

"Fine, let’s move forward," Smith grit his teeth.

Further ahead, the deep pit was dotted with vast lakes of lava, some of which had cooled down while others glowed with a dark red magma light.

At the center, a lava lake was shooting a fiery column. Due to the Moon’s gravity being only a sixth of Earth’s, this fiery column spurted thousands of meters high before falling back down like hail in a rain of magma.
