Chapter 635: 8-Star Mist Dragon Trapping Formation
By winning the contract for the sixth mining area, Huahai Mining has solved the problem of obsidian production for some time to come.
Originally according to Jiang Ning's plan, it might take a year or two to collect all the black ore that Lin Xiao needed.
Now, as long as we put it into production quickly, it can be done in about one or two months.
Even if everything goes well, we can start building the time and space interweaving formation in about a month.
"The next top priority is to develop the sixth mining area as quickly as possible." Jiang Ning issued the task order.
"Yes!"
Everyone is also full of confidence.
After a week of work arrangements, all equipment and personnel have been fully equipped, and work in the sixth mining area is finally about to begin.
The sixth mining area is located in the sea east of Hokkaido. There are several small islands around it. It is uninhabited and covered with ice and snow for most of the year.
Now, in order to mine the sixth mining area, it is necessary to find some places nearby to accommodate people.
Therefore, Jiang Ning chose one of the larger islands.
The island is called the Turtle Island by the locals because its shape resembles a giant turtle lying in the sea.
Some workers and technicians from Huahai Mining have already been stationed on Shengui Island.
The equipment has also been transported over, and now all the manpower needs to be sent over to officially start mining work in the mine.
And this so-called total manpower actually includes construction workers and security personnel.
The construction team will start building houses, bases and workers' dormitories on the island, and the security personnel will naturally ensure the safety of these people.
"Brother Long, you and Xiaodao take some brothers to Shengui Island to scout the area in advance!" Jiang Ning said, "We must ensure that the mining work in the mining area will proceed smoothly in three days!"
"Don't worry, boss. I will find out if there is any trace of the enemy!" said Lei Long.
This is because Huahai Mining won the contract for the sixth mining area at the bidding meeting, and at the same time, it also started a real fight with the North Sea Alliance.
Under pressure from public opinion, the North Sea Alliance has not chosen to take immediate action in recent days.
According to Jiang Ning's guess, these people should dare to cause trouble when mining work in their own mining area just begins.
Because I am busy with work at that time, I will have more shortcomings and loopholes, and that is also the time when they can take advantage of me the most.
Therefore, Jiang Ning sent Lei Long and others to scout the mining area first, and brought Duan Shuiliu, Nuohan and others with them to ensure that the entire island could be turned upside down.
Two days later, all the domestic technical personnel arrived and Lin Xiao also arrived in Hokkaido.
Lin Xiao felt deeply moved when he set foot in the country of cherry blossoms again.
Many years ago, it was on this land that he met Ono Xiaoxiaozi's mother, the gentle and virtuous girl from the Sakura Country.
Time has passed, things have changed, and Lin Xiao's expression was complicated, as if he was immersed in memories from many years ago.
That night, Jiang Ning hosted all domestic employees at the most luxurious hotel in the area.
Nothing happened that night. The next day, all the employees, led by Yu Zeshui, went to the Shengui Island.
"Today is the first day of mining in the new mining area. Mr. Jiang, don't you want to go and take a look on site?" Yu Zeshui asked Jiang Ning before leaving.
"I don't know anything about mining, but I feel relieved knowing you're here!" Jiang Ning smiled.
In fact, it’s not that he doesn’t want to go, but that he can’t go.
He has to stay in the base camp for the time being.
Because the base camp has his company's largest distribution center, warehouse, and ore washing equipment.
Therefore, this place is of utmost importance. If he goes to the Sixth Mining Area now, someone might come to steal his house.
So, he had to guard the base camp.
However, he would not tell anyone his thoughts because he was not sure whether there were any undercover agents from the other side among the Sakura Country employees around him.
However, Jiang Ning's guess was indeed very accurate.
An accident occurred on the evening of the first day of mining in the sixth mining area.
That night, after a busy day, people returned to their base on Shengui Island. Just as they were preparing to rest, the weather changed.
First there was a gust of strong wind, and then heavy snow fell from the sky.
The strong wind mixed with heavy snow almost covered the entire camp.
However, no one thought anything was wrong.
This kind of extreme weather was very common in the past, so everyone just considered themselves unlucky.
However, after everyone had dinner in the evening, they found that it was pitch black all around them and they could not see any reference objects. For a moment, they seemed to be in a black hole.
Everyone began to get scared and turned on the searchlights with the highest wattage, but they still couldn't illuminate the darkness ahead.
Someone began to suggest that they form a team and walk outside the island to see if the island was surrounded by fog?
But Xiaoye Xiaoxiaozi was on the island and she knew what was happening.
"We've been trapped in the Eight-Star Mist Dragon Array." Ono Xiaoxiaozi said, "The sky above Hokkaido corresponds to the Big Dipper and the North Star. The other side has an Onmyoji who uses the stars and the weather to trap us in the array. No matter how we try, we can't get out!"
"What should we do? Do we have to wait until tomorrow morning?" Lei Long asked.
After all, Xiao Ye Xiao Xiaozi also said that this kind of formation relies on the stars.
"If the stars disappear during the day, will the formation disappear?" Xiaodao asked.
"It's not that the stars disappear during the day, but the sunlight is too strong during the day, so we can't see the stars!" Xiaoye Xiaoxiaozi said: "In fact, the stars are always there, regardless of day or night, but the formation is stronger at night!"
"Damn it, it must be the North Sea Alliance who did it!" Lei Long shouted angrily.
"To be exact, it was the Jiujiu people in the North Sea Alliance who did it!" said Ono Xiaoxiaozi.
He was very familiar with the methods used by Jiujiu's Yin-Yang masters.
Originally, when she and Lei Long came to the island today, part of her responsibility was to check whether there were any magic arrays or other traps on the island.
However, perhaps her ability was not enough, so she did not find any clues.
"This time Jiujiu has sent out the top Onmyoji!" Ono Xiaoxiaozi exclaimed.
Because, even a high-level Onmyoji like her could not discover the magic circle set up in advance by the other party, which means that the other party's ability is more than one level higher than hers.
It seems like Jiujiu is really ruthless this time.
I guess he has taken out all his belongings and is ready to fight to the death with Huahaihui.
"Call the boss and ask for support!" Lei Long said, picking up the phone.
But he was surprised to find that there was no signal on the phone.
"The Eight-Star Mist Dragon Trapping Formation was once used by Onmyoji Abe Haruaki to block the demons during the Night Parade of the Demons in peacetime." Ono Xiaoxiaozi said, "The energy of this formation is very strong. It can almost isolate us into another world. Not to mention mobile phones, any super strong signal will be blocked!"
"Moreover, as the fog gets stronger, we will slowly develop hysteria in the formation and eventually kill each other!" Xiaoye Xiaoxiaozi said, "Even if we are not completely killed, there will be evil spirits in the formation that will kill us and leave no trace."
"This is a very vicious formation. Abe Haruaki used it to suppress the hundreds of demons. We humans can't resist it for even one night."
