Chapter 2373: Seeing and Hearing the Great Iron Factory!


Now that a large army has been assembled, it is inevitable that people will be discovered if they act with great fanfare.

Most of the rebels are hidden deep in abandoned towns and mines not far from the "Big Iron Works".

They can turn into turbulent waves with just one order.

The surging underground torrent.

Only Long Yangjun, Li Yao, Li Jialing and a handful of masters in the rebel army dared to take the risk to infiltrate near the big iron factory and contact the local worry-free believers in the big iron factory who were personally commanded by the Great Protector.

The underground world is a three-dimensional labyrinth of huge caves connected by tunnels and gaps.

Theoretically speaking, it is the easiest to defend and difficult to attack.

As long as an elite team is sent to guard the main road between the two huge spaces, it will be possible.

It can lock everyone's entry and exit routes.

However, near the large ironworks is a mature mining area that has been mined for hundreds of years.

It is complicated and has countless mines and tunnels.

No one who is not an experienced old miner will know the dark side roads deep in a certain tunnel. , where can it lead.

In order to transport fresh air and clean drinking water downwards, precious resources from deep underground must be transported up, and a large-scale ventilation and logistics pipeline system must be established.

In the past tens of thousands of years, the demon clan has built such a pipeline system, the Star Sea Empire has built it, the Star Sea Republic has built it, and the True Human Empire has naturally built it too.

Countless abandoned pipeline systems from the previous dynasty have become shortcuts for clandestine operations.

With only a few cultivators, there is no way to prevent this.

Naturally, among the Wuyou believers were old miners who had been dealing with rocks all their lives, and Li Yao was an unrivaled master at shuttling through ventilation ducts.

The group was familiar with the road and climbed smoothly through cracks into ventilation ducts and from ventilation ducts into tunnels.

Then he drilled through the tunnel into a mine that had been completely drained decades ago and had long been abandoned.

According to the mining industry regulations of the True Human Empire, such completely mined mines must be backfilled with rocks and rapidly solidifying liquid metal to ensure the stability of the entire geological structure and prevent large-scale landslides and geological movements from affecting the entire planet.

To the world of cultivating immortals on the ground.

However, the cost of rock backfilling is extremely high.

For the greedy and extremely decadent cultivators, the "Extraction Industry Code" is all nonsense.

The Black Iron Group was originally affiliated with the Dongfang Family.

The imperial capital is not the territory of the Dongfang family, so why would Li Minghui care about any regulations?

Therefore, there are dark and empty abandoned mines everywhere around the large iron works.

The Wuyou cultivators spent several years opening up most of the mines and carefully covering them up, turning the rock formations in this area into termites.

The big tree is riddled with holes inside, but you can't see it from the outside.

Li Yao and Long Yangjun emerged from the depths of such a mine, bypassed the outer guards of the Black Iron Group, and appeared on a honeycomb-like rock formation not far from the large iron factory.

Wearing gray cloaks, everyone seemed to blend in with the surrounding rocks.

They looked down at the entire ironworks.

The first thing that caught their eyes was naturally the well of magma in the center of the ironworks that looked like a volcanic eruption.

It was like a torch that had been ignited by condensing billions of heavenly fires.

It burned blazingly, roaring and howling with its teeth and claws.

Even from a few miles away, you could feel its scorching temperature.

In the blink of an eye, it seemed as if sparks would splash out. to the face.

Long Yangjun told Li Yao that under the rock formation where the large ironworks is located is the gathering place of three flame spiritual veins, which can continuously produce extremely strong and stable flame spiritual energy from afar.

It is the best quality energy for modern cultivation.

In civilized terms, there is a super high altitude hidden in the rock formations underground of the large iron factory.

It is a magma zone that is warm and ultra-high pressure but has a very stable and solid geological structure.

There are also several rare ore veins with extremely large reserves and excellent quality nearby.

We can simply build a smelting plant on the spot to smelt the ore using geothermal energy and refine the raw ore.

After the concentrate is transported to the ground, the relative cost will be much lower.

Li Yao looked far into the distance and saw the geothermal energy factory built around the Well of Flames, as well as various types of mining sites, smelters and metal processing plants built based on the energy factory, as well as a small rough processing factory for magic weapon components. .

The high and low smelting and refining furnaces are like cold giants, towering all the way to the top of the cave, making the originally open underground space extremely dull.

In underground smelting, the most difficult problem to solve is not the problem of industrial water, but the emission of toxic waste gas.

Li Yao noticed that there are countless huge pipes with strong suction on the roof of the cave above the entire large iron factory and on the surrounding cave walls. , constantly pumping away the black gas that is so dirty that it is almost solidified.

After multiple filtrations, all the highly toxic substances are filtered and compressed into extremely small cubes, and the purified air will be circulated back.

Even though thousands of powerful industrial air purifiers were working at full capacity, the air was still filled with all kinds of suffocating smells.

Even Li Yao felt a little uncomfortable, as if someone had stuffed two lumps of rubber into his nose.

It’s a mixture of asphalt and asphalt.

I really don’t know how the workers and their families here can tolerate it.

"In fact, the Real Human Empire is the same as the New Federation before you returned.

It uses a large number of demon workers.

To be more precise, it uses various medicines to activate the 'demon cells' in the lower-level workers, giving them all kinds of strange things. , the 'ability' with great side effects."

Long Yangjun whispered, "In other words, since the complete collapse of the demon clan's rule ten thousand years ago, in the center of the star sea, the human race has never stopped enslaving the demon clan.

Regardless of the high-level demon clan, they are strong, hard-working and hard-working.

The low-level monsters are the best labor force.

Who would be willing to slaughter all these 'big animals'?

Wouldn't that be such a waste of natural resources?

"Of course, in order to defend the 'dignity and pride of human civilization' and more importantly the 'humanitarian spirit', such a simple and crude approach of completely transforming human beings into grotesque monsters is not very common, but it is very harmful to human organs.

Carrying out partial transformation, or using the principle of 'eugenics' to combine humans with certain demonized genes to create offspring with certain functions.

This practice, similar to breeding pet dogs, has never stopped.

“The workers who live in various heavily polluted factories underground have a complete respiratory system that is more like that of demons than humans, which enables them to master the ability to survive and work in heavily polluted environments.

"This is not without cost.

The demonization gene can only help their working ability in young adults, but it cannot prevent the accumulation of highly toxic heavy metals in their bodies.

The end result is a greatly shortened life span and a certain probability of damaged intelligence.

However, for As far as the cultivator factory owners are concerned, these are not a 'price'.

Anyway, they do not need the miners to live to the limit of their natural life span, nor do they need them to have too high intelligence.

It would be easier to control them if they were stupider."

Li Yao was horrified and furious when he heard this: "These immortal cultivators are so despicable!"

"You are wrongly blaming the immortal cultivator."

Long Yangjun said coldly, "The cultivators are not the originators, they are just following the bad rules of the previous dynasty.

As early as the era of the Star Sea Republic, those sanctimonious cultivators were setting up some kind of 'model factory' on the surface of the blue sky and white sun, not to mention how elegant the environment was. , The birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and there is laughter, but deep underground where the sun cannot be found, why not do this for the sake of excessive profits?

Anyway, since these workers have been activated with the demon gene, they are considered to be contaminated by the demon clan, or Simply a member of the demon clan.

"The demon race is the enemy of the human race, so whether you are a cultivator or an immortal cultivator, you don't feel any guilt for enslaving the 'monster race', so you can be justified, right?"

Li Yao was speechless, suddenly very grateful to Jin Xinyue for everything he had done in the past hundred years.

Without her leading the demon race's resistance, would the Starry Star Federation still have a large number of such cruel factories today?

That is definitely not the dream world in Li Yao's mind, something that should exist!

In addition to the deadly poisonous gas, thousands of industrial air purifiers emit a deafening roar at full power output.

It is also like an endless brain-penetrating magic sound, hovering over the large iron factory, turning into thousands of flowing venom.

Snakes get into everyone's ears.

Li Yao tried to converge his spiritual energy to the limit, relying only on his strong flesh and blood to resist the noise.

Soon his mouth went dry, his heart beat faster, he was sweating profusely, his blood vessels were beating wildly, and he had countless dark and bloody thoughts.

"How about it?"

Long Yangjun smiled and said, "You should understand now why so many people are crying and kneeling down to beg me to practice "Wangyou Jue", right?

Even if it is just to resist this never-ending noise, it is very difficult.

It’s worth it!”

Li Yao squinted his eyes and stared at the "rumbling" air purification magic weapon above his head.

He shook his head and said, "There is no reason.

Even a high-power air purification system for industrial use can only be carefully refined and maintained and replaced regularly."

If you use a silent gasket, it’s impossible to make such a harsh noise.

This is a technology that even the Star Star Federation can solve, there’s no reason why the Real Human Empire can’t do it!”

"You have already said that it must be 'carefully refined' and 'regularly maintained and replaced with silent gaskets.'

Each replacement requires a partial shutdown of the factory, which is very costly, okay?"

Long Yangjun said, "Compared with such a high cost, the cost of issuing three pairs of earplugs to each worker and family member every month is much cheaper.

What do you think a cultivator like Li Minghui will choose?"

Li Yao frowned and said, "The air purification system is running all the time, and the noise will never disappear.

In other words, the residents here have to wear earplugs and talk to each other all day long.

Isn't it very inconvenient?"

“It’s just inconvenient!”

Long Yangjun said, "Then just stop talking, shut up, and devote your life to cultivating immortals.

Wouldn't it be just right?"
