Chapter 1254: Chapter 495 Underground Traversal_2 Chapter 1254: Chapter 495 Underground Traversal_2 The silence at 1000 meters underground was terrifying, everywhere was pitch black, and the only thing Yan Fei could see was the underground structure within a 20-meter radius. Due to the obstruction of underground rocks and soil, the Drone Quantum Radar's maximum scanning distance was a mere 100 meters, so Yan Fei never activated the Quantum Radar since it would only waste Energy Points.
If it were someone else, staying in such a dark and quiet environment for too long could cause mental issues, and they might even go insane. But Yan Fei was different; he was a God-Level Expert, not only did he have supreme control over his own body, but his Spiritual Power was also incredibly strong, ensuring his mental state remained within the normal fluctuations. Furthermore, Yan Fei had hatred in his heart, he wanted to seek revenge for Wen Rou; this obsession supported him to keep going. To achieve his goal, he would stay in this extreme environment indefinitely without any regrets…
Four hours later, at midnight local time in Kuwait, the Drone Data began to refresh. The Drone Body slightly vibrated, and all the data was restored to full value, including the Energy Points returning to their peak of ten million points.
With plenty of Energy Points, Yan Fei continued to control the Drone to traverse deeper underground. Guided by the arrow in the Auxiliary Brain in his mind, the Drone's direction strictly followed the guidance without any deviation. This direction was meticulously deduced by the Auxiliary Brain, and if there indeed was a huge Underground Space, it would definitely be in the direction indicated by the Auxiliary Brain.
Starting from 1000 meters underground, the amount of oil outside the Drone's window increased significantly, the sand quickly decreased, and the quantity of rocks of varying sizes began to increase. The change in terrain, especially the increase in rocks, caused the Drone's traversal speed to slow down. However, even with the increased difficulty of underground traversal, the lubrication from the oil did not reduce the speed much.
Three hours later, when the Drone stopped due to a lack of Energy Points, it had traversed another 1200 meters downwards. Without sufficient Energy Points, the Drone could only lurk motionlessly underground, waiting for another data refresh; at this point, the Drone was 2200 meters away from the surface of Kuwait City.
Before Yan Fei planned to execute this super plan, he had done a lot of preparatory work. Particularly, he had meticulously arranged logistics, storing a large amount of daily necessities in the Universal Space, including piping hot meals. So, although he was staying deep underground, he could immediately enjoy delicious meals, and even fresh fruits and tea, whenever he wished.
Thus, while waiting for the Drone Energy Points data refresh, over a satisfying meal, Yan Fei pondered how to develop the strength of Dream Island, how to defeat The United States of America, and how to eliminate the mastermind behind the scenes. It was precisely because Yan Fei continuously thought things through that his heart grew stronger, allowing him to endure this nearly unbearable underground traversing ordeal. Removed from the outer world here, even the mastermind could not influence Yan Fei, making him believe this was where he could really come up with the right strategies…
On the third day, right after the Drone Data refreshed, Yan Fei controlled the Drone to continue its underground traversal. The change was drastic at 2200 meters underground; the sand significantly decreased while the rocks increasingly grew in size and hardness. But at this depth, the Drone found more and more oil. Yan Fei even discovered a small oil lake within a fractured hard rock layer.
Overall, at this depth, the Drone's underground traversal speed became slower and slower, and the consumption of Energy Points for traversing increased significantly. Fortunately, the Drone was equipped with a comprehensive breathing system; otherwise, Yan Fei inside would have long died from a lack of oxygen. In these tough conditions, the Drone only managed to traverse an additional 800 meters deep that day; at this point, the Drone was 3000 meters away from the surface of Kuwait City.
On the fourth day, after data refresh, the Drone continued its journey, discovering that all the sediment had disappeared outside; now it was surrounded entirely by layered rocks of various sizes. Fortunately, these rocks weren't very hard, and occasionally small to medium-sized oil lakes formed in gaps between the rocks, allowing the Drone to take a shortcut by passing directly through these oil lakes instead of drilling through the rocks.
At this point, the complicated underground environment increased the resistance to the Drone's downward traversal. That day, the Drone only managed to go another 600 meters deep; now, the Drone was 3600 meters away from the surface of Kuwait City.
On the fifth day, the underground environment changed again as the Drone encountered numerous hard rocks, which further slowed the Drone's subterranean speed. However, Yan Fei was not discouraged but continued to traverse. After drilling through an extremely hard rock layer 100 meters deep, he surprisingly found a huge oil lake underneath the rock layer.
The oil lake was not long, but its depth was an astonishing 500 meters. It was only after the Drone Quantum Radar Scan that Yan Fei discovered the oil lake had formed in the gaps between several huge rocks, with oil from other areas seeping in to create a massive lake.
Yan Fei was overjoyed and quickly controlled the drone to traverse the oil lake. When the drone finally reached the bottom of the 500-meter-deep oil lake, he found the hardest granite there. Even though the drone's underground traversal speed was fast, it struggled with the hard granite and could only drill bit by bit. Fortunately, as the drone moved forward, the oil behind kept advancing, always serving as a lubricant for the drone, slightly speeding up the traversal.
That day, due to the oil lake, the drone reached a depth of 900 meters underground, with Kuwait City now 4,500 meters above it.
After reaching a depth of 4,500 meters, Yan Fei still had not found the possible vast underground space. He grew anxious, knowing that at a depth of 4,500 meters, movement was highly inconvenient. Should any accident, like an earthquake or volcanic eruption, occur, there was absolutely no escape, and he would definitely die there. Perhaps billions of years later, tectonic shifts could bring Yan Fei's corpse back to sunlight, turning him into a research specimen for a future civilization on Earth…
Despite his anxiety, Yan Fei was determined. After hesitating for a day, he steeled his resolve to continue traveling deeper underground in pursuit of completing the impossible super plan to destroy the Middle East's oil.
However, since encountering the granite layer, Yan Fei noticed the rock below becoming increasingly hard, and the thickness of the granite seemed immense. By the sixth day, the drone had only managed to carve a 200-meter-deep passage through the granite. On the seventh day, the drone once again carved a 200-meter-deep channel downward.
At that point, the drone had advanced 400 meters into the granite layer, but the end of the granite layer was nowhere in sight. Fortunately, unlike the steel rocks under Dream Island, there were occasional cracks and caves in this granite layer, which gave Yan Fei hope of drilling through.
In the following days, the drone continued to progress 200 meters daily but still hadn't drilled through the granite layer. The drone had now descended to a depth of over 5,000 meters below Kuwait City, yet still hadn't discovered any large underground space.
It wasn't until 10 days into the granite layer, after the drone had traveled 2,000 meters, that the rapidly spinning drill bit suddenly hit emptiness, and all resistance vanished. Excited, Yan Fei knew this indicated he had finally drilled through that damn granite layer.
The drone continued to descend when suddenly, it completely exited the granite layer and, under the influence of Earth's gravity, plummeted at high speed into the dark space below.
