CHAPTER 999: CHAPTER 415: DIRECT CONFRONTATION (FIVE-IN-ONE) (PART 4)

Su Ming suppressed his turbulent heart and issued a command.

Rhein and the others immediately activated the equipment, and immediately a large amount of dust was extracted.

The entire sea of black dust began to descend at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Su Ming and the others felt their hearts leap into their throats; success or failure rested on this one move.

Just as the black dust descended to a certain point, a black mineral emerged, and if observed closely, fine golden veins could be seen.

Rhein and the others excitedly shouted to Su Ming.

"Boss, look quickly, something has emerged!"

At this moment, Little Grey was also incredibly excited, chirping excitedly at the black mineral.

"Chirp chirp!"

"Finally found it!"

Su Ming looked at the exposed mineral and flashed a brilliant smile.

"Boss, what kind of mineral is this?"

Ankaga asked curiously.

"Eternal Metal Ore."

Su Ming did not hide it from them because it surely couldn’t be concealed.

Upon hearing Su Ming’s words, Rhein and the others looked as if they had been struck by lightning, standing frozen in place with expressions of sheer astonishment.

"Holy crap, Eternal Metal Ore!"

"This big a piece must be worth a fortune!"

...

"Priceless,"

Su Ming took a deep breath and said.

At this moment Ankaga, with sharp eyes, noticed another piece of ore emerging, stuttering as he shouted.

"Bo-boss, look quickly, another piece!"

Upon hearing Ankaga’s words, Su Ming’s heart skipped a beat, and he looked over in shock.

It turned out there was indeed a second piece of ore emerging.

At this moment Allu shouted excitedly.

"There’s a piece emerging over there too!"

"And another piece is emerging here."

Rhein shouted, excitement overwhelmed him.

Su Ming looked at the emerging Eternal Metal Ore pieces, he was completely dumbfounded, just how many pieces are there?

Could the other treasures Lady Hai Lan mentioned actually be other smaller pieces of Eternal Metal Ore?

In fact, even Lady Hai Lan was stunned; she didn’t expect there to be so many pieces.

Soon, both sides of the black dust were completely extracted, revealing a total of eighteen Eternal Metal Ore pieces, among which the most conspicuous one was the first to emerge, with a gigantic size, estimated to be at least a thousand tons.

This was precisely the piece Lady Hai Lan promised to Su Ming back then, as for the other seventeen pieces of Eternal Metal Ore, they were relatively small, but the quantity was abundant.

Su Ming used the symbiotic armor to scan and roughly estimated that these Eternal Metal Ore pieces weighed at least around 3800 tons.

Rhein and the others were no longer merely thrilled, rather they felt a bit panicked looking at so many Eternal Metal Ore pieces.

"Boss, th-this many?"

Su Ming’s expression also turned extremely grave, so much Eternal Metal, once news leaks out, it doesn’t matter whether it’s Dark Star, Saint Qiao, or Tianqi, they will become frenzied, and even the Federation will be envious.

He spoke with a serious expression to Rhein and the others.

"Rhein, all of you listen carefully, you are the people I trust the most, no one is allowed to reveal a single word of what you’ve seen today, or don’t blame me for being ruthless. It’s not that I don’t trust you, but this concerns all of our lives now, once the news leaks, we’re all done for!"

"Understood, anyone who leaks, chop them!"

Rhein understood the stakes involved, answering without the slightest hesitation.

At this moment, Lady Hai Lan also looked a bit panicked and said to Su Ming.

"Mr. Su Ming, this...."

"Lady Hai Lan, it’s not that I’m greedy for your wealth, I hope you understand one thing. You can’t hold onto these Eternal Metals, nor can you use them, as soon as you dare to take them out, absolute disaster will befall your nation!"

Su Ming spoke sternly.

He finally understood why the Third Prince of Amis back then dug up these things but didn’t take them back!

Instead, he chose to eliminate all who were aware, as these things weren’t wealth for the Crimson Country but a calamity.

To put it bluntly, he couldn’t even protect these things.

"Then what do we do?"

Lady Hai Lan asked in a slight panic.

"Let me think,"

Su Ming’s expression constantly changed.

Everyone present looked at Su Ming, anxiously waiting for him to make a decision.

After ten minutes, Su Ming raised his head and looked at Lady Hai Lan, asking.

"Lady Hai Lan, do you trust me?"

"I trust you."

"Good, if that’s the case, I will take you to meet someone, only she can help you deal with these Eternal Metals. But you must understand one thing, with so much Eternal Metal, none will offer you a standard price, you can’t be greedy, you can only exchange for certain benefits, but this is enough for the Crimson Country to completely revive and restore."

"I’ll leave everything to Mr. Su Ming’s arrangements!"

Lady Hai Lan answered without the slightest hesitation.

"Alright, Rhein, quickly go out and bring in some mechanical boxes, pack up these Eternal Metal Ore pieces!"

"Yes!"

Rhein immediately took people to leave.

It wasn’t long before Rhein and the others brought in one mechanical box after another.

"Listen carefully, once the ore is placed in the mechanical boxes, fill them with black dust to shield them!"

Su Ming instructed Rhein and the others.

This black dust is valuable; it can interfere and block scanning, and better hide these ores.

"Understood!"

"And one more thing, if anyone asks what treasure you’ve unearthed after we leave, uniformly respond that you found a large batch of Level 5 Titanium Tantalum Ore stones."

"Alright."

Rhein and the others replied with a hint of panic.

"Okay, hurry up and pack them, once we’re done, we’ll head back to the Federation immediately!"

Su Ming planned to head directly back to the Federation to find Legion Commander Long Bai.

Bringing so much Eternal Metal Ore anywhere was unsafe, sooner or later it would catch unwanted attention.
