Chapter 592: First Exploration of the Lair
The stone slabs were shaking violently, as if a ferocious beast was imprisoned underneath.
Qian Qian reacted quickly and jumped up lightly, landing on his toes with a gun in his hand.
The stone slab shook for a while and slowly moved towards the altar.
A pitch-black cave entrance came into view. Qianqian walked forward a few steps and looked at the stairs made of blue bricks at the entrance.
From her perspective, she could only make out four or five steps leading down into darkness.
It was pitch black below the fourth or fifth step. [Tongzi,] Qianqian was a little panicked. [What should I do now?]
【Are you going down? 】
【Don't worry. 】
The system prompts, [Let me take a look first. ]
After a long while, [Qianqian, I am sure there are people in this evil dragon's lair.]
[Although I am not sure of the identities of those people, I think we should not go down easily. ]
Money money...
He frowned and thought for a while, then took out a few cans of spicy and strong poison from the space.
[Hey, how about sprinkling this poison powder on the steps? ]
The system was happy, [Hahaha, that's OK, at least the hatched dragon can't be chased out.]
Qian Qian curled her lips and carefully sprinkled poison powder on the four or five steps that she could see clearly.
Then, ignoring the system's dissuasion, he carefully stepped onto the stairs, spreading the poison powder cautiously as he went deeper and deeper.
The scene in front of him fell into darkness, and even though Qianqian had good eyesight, he could only see the outline of the stairs.
She had a hunch that the dragon's lair shouldn't be very large, and sure enough, the stairs became wider after she walked up more than thirty steps.
Everywhere you look, you can see densely packed round protrusions. Even though Qian Qian's vision is blurry and he can't see the details, his scalp still tingles.
She kept waving the poison powder and looking around.
I looked up a few more times and felt like there seemed to be something above the nest, but I couldn't see it clearly.
【Qianqian, please go out first.】
When Qian Qian heard Tongzi's solemn tone, he stepped back.
She was afraid of something unexpected happening so she didn't turn around, but retreated cautiously step by step.
While retreating, he sprinkled poison powder like crazy.
I didn't wear a face mask when I came down, and my nose was already sore from the spicy smell.
Enduring the discomfort, Qianqian withdrew little by little.
The vision became clear again, and the sky was getting dark as the golden sun was setting in the west.
[Qianqian,] the system reminded, [restore the stone slab and we will go back first.]
【it is good. 】
Qian Qian restored the slate and took out the key, then wiped the sweat from his forehead and returned to the airship.
Xiao Ying and others were very worried, but they were not in a hurry to ask about the situation.
Qianqian cleaned up and had dinner, and only then did he have time to ask the system.
[Tongzi, how is it? ]
【What do you know? 】
The system was calm and composed. [There were a total of 350 to 360 dragon eggs in that dragon's lair.]
[Dealing with dragon eggs is very simple. Just break the eggshell and sprinkle your pungent poison powder inside. The dragon will die.]
Money money...
Hehehe laughed twice, [What next? ]
【Then,】 the system said in a stern voice, 【five of the original 350 or 6 dragon eggs have hatched.】
[Although the five evil dragons are still small, they should not be underestimated. ]
[Qianqian, next time we secretly deal with unhatched dragon eggs, you can't do it alone.]
[I'm afraid I still need Xiao Ying's help to store the destroyed dragon eggs into the space. ]
Qian Qian frowned. He didn't want Ying'er to take any risks so he didn't plan to tell anyone about this.
The system continued, [Also, it is best not to store unprocessed dragon eggs in the space.]
[That thing is weird. I'm worried it will affect the space.]
In fact, ever since encountering the evil dragon that could control the money space, the system has been very wary of those Western evil dragons.
After all, he and Qian Qian have been eating melons together for so many years, and he has never encountered a situation that prevented Qian Qian from entering the space.
So it is never too careful when dealing with those evil dragons.
Qian Qian nodded slowly, [But I want to crack open the dragon eggs in the dragon's lair and put poison inside.]
[It shouldn’t be that easy, right? ]
[Yes,] the system's frustration was about to overflow, [the dragon's lair was particularly sensitive to sound, especially the sound of cracking eggshells.]
[However,] he changed the subject, [it would be much easier if we could deal with those hatched dragons first.]
[But,] Qianqian sighed, [Tongzi, don’t forget that you can’t eat all of the dragon’s melons now.]
system……
[That’s right, I still don’t fully understand what’s going on under that nest.]
Qian Qian rubbed his brows and said, "Forget it, let's not think about this for now."
Xiao Ying follows Qian Qian, and she is not a talkative person.
Without asking any questions, she just looked at Qianqian with a serious face. Qianqian had no choice but to give a simple explanation as she followed him.
Obviously, Xiao Ying was not satisfied with Fu Yan's explanation.
Qian Qian didn't care about so many things. In the evening, he entered the space and rummaged through the various machines he had asked for from Zhang Junmo, Li Rui, Mo Yanyan and others.
[Tongzi, is this fan okay? ]
She pointed to a fan that was about chest high and had particularly large blades.
[I remember this fan was made by Zhang Junmo when he was still a child.]
While reminiscing, Qianqian looked around the fan.
Crouching down, he pushed and pulled the bottom of the fan with his fingers. [Tongzi, do you see this ice trough?]
[You can put ice cubes in it,] she frowned, [but the only imperfection is that this thing can't be used to store core energy.]
[It seems that I can only operate manually and put the poison powder into this ice tank. ]
[Tsk tsk tsk, those dark evil dragons from the West are truly blessed. ]
system……
[This blessing is given to you, do you want it? ]
The system complained and then fell silent for a while, [Among the people Ying'er brought out, there are three or four newcomers from the Ministry of Industry. ]
【It was a piece of cake for them to install the core source on this fan. 】
Money money...
His eyes lit up, [That's fine. ]
[Tongzi, I used poison powder to incapacitate the hatched dragon.]
[Can we then deal with the dragon eggs one by one? ]
The system thought for a while, [Okay, but for the sake of caution, you should bring someone with you? ]
[Goodbye,] Qianqian disagreed, [I will go to the dragon's lair alone. If anything happens, I can still hide in the space.]
[If I bring one more person, do you think I should take care of it? ]
【Moreover,】 Qian Qian tilted his head and thought, 【the dragon eggs we saw today should be ordinary ones, right?】
[Ordinary means not outstanding. Since it is an ordinary dragon egg, it can definitely be discarded at any time. ]
【The truly important and powerful things should be hidden deeper. 】
The system agrees, [It makes sense. 】
【So, we don’t have to be too careful tomorrow. 】
The next day, Qianqian took the fan out of the space.
Xiao Ying ordered the people in the Engineering Department to modify the fan, and it was already noon when they installed the core source.
After lunch, Qianqian entered the dragon's lair again.
This time I was much more relaxed. I placed the fan on the steps and turned it on.
Not long after, a few squeaking sounds were heard coming from the darkness, and the sound made people feel uncomfortable all over.
【Tongzi? 】
【how? 】
Qian Qian stood on the steps with his back bent, ready to run away at any time.
The system said happily, "Money, use the night pearl to light up this place."
[The only ones guarding the dragon eggs here are four little creatures that have just hatched.]
[They all inhaled the poisonous powder and were about to die.]
Money money...
He raised his eyebrows, took out the night pearl from the space, and finally saw the scene in front of him clearly.
