Chapter 1260: Chapter 497: Extraterrestrial Gold_3 Chapter 1260: Chapter 497: Extraterrestrial Gold_3 The only reason was that the oil waterfall’s downward flow was so substantial that the Drone’s ascent was incredibly slow, and its suction cups also had to consu more Energy Points. However, Yan Fei had made a significant find in the Underground Space, and he was in such a good mood that he naturally didn’t care about the expenditure of this bit of energy and ti.
Yan Fei controlled the Drone to slowly crawl upwards, stopping every 10 ters to drill horizontally into the rock wall, creating a large hole. Then, Yan Fei began to install a type of high-powered Explosive that had just been produced by Dream Island.
This high-powered Explosive was the latest product from Yang Qi’s laboratory, perfectly suited for underground demolition work and possessing highly efficient explosive power. The key was that this high-powered Explosive didn’t produce sparks upon detonation; even if it exploded in Oil, it wouldn’t ignite the oil. This high-powered Explosive was produced specifically by Yan Fei for the purpose of blasting through the underground, and now it was also very suitable for a new Task.
Every ti Yan Fei ascended 10 ters, he would set an explosion point for a high-powered Explosive according to the plan deduced by the Auxiliary Brain. By the ti he returned to the oil lakes 2,000 ters above, Yan Fei had set up a total of 200 explosion points in the downward passage. The amount of high-powered Explosives placed at these points reached a staggering 1,000 tons, too precious for Yan Fei to consider discarding even when clearing Space for the Golden Orb.
This arduous task of constantly swimming against the current, digging holes in the rock and placing Explosives consud a lot of Yan Fei’s ti, as well as a large number of Energy Points from the Drone. To complete the Task, Yan Fei even stayed attached to the rock wall for a day, and by the ti he had finished all the work and returned to the oil lake at 2,000 ters, a full two days had passed.
As oil from across the Middle East continued to converge here, the oil lake returned to its filled state. For his own safety, Yan Fei didn’t imdiately detonate the high-powered Explosives. Instead, he stayed in the oil lake and rested until midnight local ti in Kuwait, when the Drone Data refreshed rapidly, imdiately returning it to its peak condition.
It was at this ti that Yan Fei felt sufficiently confident. He first controlled the Drone to move away from the downward passage at the bottom of the oil lake, hiding behind a large boulder. Only then did he activate the control device for the two hundred high-powered Explosives. The Explosives detonated instantaneously, and a muffled colossal boom was heard, followed by intense vibrations that traveled through the oil lake to the Drone and then the granite passageway below burst open…
The oil lake where the Drone was situated was affected by the Explosion wave. The oil lake’s undercurrent surged, causing the Drone to tumble like a ship caught in a storm. Fortunately, since the environnt was sealed, the Drone’s tumbling range was limited, and with the interference of the giant boulder, the Drone soon stabilized after a short ti.
The power of this explosion was imnse and quickly transmitted to the surface of Kuwait. However, because it was a full 6,500 ters deep from the Kuwait surface, by the ti the Explosion wave reached the surface, the vibration could barely be felt.
Even so, the earthquake asurent departnt in Kuwait still detected this slight tremor. They didn’t know that a massive underground explosion had occurred and assud Kuwait was experiencing an earthquake. According to their seismic instrunts, the earthquake asured a re 2.5 on the Richter scale, posing no threat to Kuwait at all.
Although earthquakes were not common in the Gulf Region where Kuwait is located, this quake was considered quite unusual. Since the earthquake was rely 2.5 in magnitude and caused no damage to the surface, it failed to garner much attention. In fact, the majority of people in Kuwait didn’t even feel the underground tremors, and quickly, the news of the 2.5 magnitude earthquake released by the authorities was drowned in the deluge of entertainnt news…
