CHAPTER 497: CHAPTER 376: SURPASSING OTHERWORLD’S LAWS, A TERRIFYING DISCOVERY!

[You have obtained: Oil Extraction and Refining Platform Blueprint!]

A damaged oil extraction and refining platform is of no value.

Lin Yue, not being a professional, has a profoundly deep understanding of his own abilities.

Even if he had strong hands-on skills and learning abilities, he was still an ordinary young man, not some professional technical personnel, and not powerful enough to repair a giant machine he had never seen through any channel on Earth before.

Therefore, Lin Yue chose to decompose it into a blueprint, which was a very reasonable decision.

"Wait, does this require only various alloys? There’s nothing that requires a lot of effort to obtain?"

Lin Yue even found that although it consisted of extremely complex components, they were mostly various alloys. Even if there were other requirements, they were just rubber or fiberglass, nothing special.

This can be said to be quite good.

If there were any special, hard-to-find components, it would really be troublesome.

"I still have to go back once and then manufacture this big guy. Of course, I also need to get some ’guards’."

"Gawu." Bai nodded as well.

If one wants to make the most use of this oil river in front, they can’t let others touch it.

Especially those Lizardmen and beggars.

Necessary guards, such as Medium Electric Guard Machine Gun Platforms and Little Ice Lizards, are suitable choices.

However, Lin Yue was still very concerned about one thing.

Why would there be such a large machine sunk in the oil river here?

Could it be that someone had discovered this place before? And even unpacked such a big guy...

Let’s make an assumption.

Thirty-five days ago, some big shot opened a treasure chest, coincidentally opened this oil extraction and refining platform, and then coincidentally discovered this oil deposit.

And then, coincidentally, they disappeared?

"Bai, do you smell anything else worth noting here?" The more Lin Yue thought about it, the more something seemed off.

The probability of such a situation occurring was too low.

Where did the person go? It couldn’t be a Lizardman who opened it, right?

"Gawu..." Bai sniffed the air carefully, like an oversized puppy, moving around and sniffing here and there.

Finally, it suddenly stretched its head towards the ground, sniffed for a while, and suddenly looked towards the west!

"Gawu!" Bai growled lowly, motioning for Lin Yue to follow, and Lin Yue immediately followed it step by step towards the west.

After walking almost two kilometers, Bai suddenly stopped and pointed its large claw at the ground.

The ground? What’s underneath?

Lin Yue looked at his feet, all covered with wild grass and extremely flat, showing no difference from other places.

However... since Bai said so, it proved there was something down there!

Lin Yue took out the shovel.

This tool had always been used to dig traps, but since the yard wall was expanded and became five meters high, the traps indeed hadn’t been dug again.

But its effectiveness was truly remarkable, and it required very little effort, even without wearing the exoskeleton; it was very easy to use.

With one shovel down, a large chunk of soil was removed from the spot Bai pointed to, and then he dug another shovel.

But after two shovels, dozens of centimeters deep, nothing was found.

What’s going on?

Bai pointed down again, seemingly quite certain there was something there, and took the shovel from Lin Yue, digging a few more shovels down.

"Clang!"

Suddenly, with the sound of metal clashing, Lin Yue immediately looked at the source of the sound!

"Metal..." Lin Yue took back the shovel from Bai and dug around it, revealing the full appearance of this metal!

It was actually a metal lid!

This metal lid was covered with spots of rust, but its basic outline could still be seen.

A round lid with a two-meter diameter... looks familiar.

Lin Yue recalled that beside his main shelter, there was an underground alloy shelter, also with such a large lid at the entrance, which could be opened to directly enter inside.

An underground shelter... is there actually such a thing here?

Lin Yue continued to clear the surrounding soil and unexpectedly found that apart from this large lid and a small area beside it, the rest was soil. Digging more than a meter down, it was still so.

"What’s the matter? Shouldn’t it be the wall of the shelter directly?"

Lin Yue found it strange, quite different from his shelter.

In his shelter, not to mention the ground, the underground allowed direct entry into the vast interior space of the shelter just by opening the entrance. Although there was a ladder, it was only a means to descend to the floor.

But this shelter seemed completely different, like a beer bottle cap with the downward part like a bottleneck.

Lin Yue thought for a moment and felt that it was more appropriate to force the door open.

He wore his exoskeleton, added mechanical arms, and tried to handle the big door, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t open it.
