Chu Tian controlled the mecha, ascending slowly.
His ascent speed was not fast this time.
He reached the diamond layer and stopped gradually.
Xiao Hei and the others did not know what he was planning to do.
But soon, they saw the latest emitted laser, extremely thin and elongated.
It was cutting the sparkling stones in front of them.
Cubes of diamond, one meter per side, were cut by the Star Shatterer and collected into the cockpit.
Chu Tian, in the control system, grinned so wide his mouth was crooked.
"I'm rich, I'm rich... What African Star, Cullinan, they're all amateurs!"
When he returned, he could just casually bring out a piece, and it would be more than ten times theirs.
This trip to Xuantian Star made him wealthy.
With so many diamonds, he could make any Huang family consortium kneel.
Diamonds were extremely hard. Even with the Star Shatterer's cutting, he dared not set the laser too high.
After all, this entire layer was made of diamond. Diamond, when subjected to large-area laser bombardment, could easily cause an explosion.
And diamonds were called diamonds only after being cut from diamond.
Chu Tian spent a full day here.
He cut out approximately 10 cubic meters of diamond.
He pondered that too much wealth was also a problem if it couldn't be sold.
So, he stopped, and raised the mecha again.
He ascended to the gold vein layer.
This was a solid commodity.
Although not as valuable as diamonds,
It was easy to exchange.
And the latest data showed that the gold content here did not require further refinement.
Any piece dug out was 999 pure gold.
"Star Shatterer, dig with all your might, dig as much as you can!"
Piece after piece of gold was transported in.
Chu Tian's saliva was constantly dripping.
Until the third day...
"That's enough, get out quickly!" The latest communication system suddenly received a signal.
No doubt, it must be from the Blood King below.
Chu Tian cursed inwardly.
"Damn it, you want to control me even when I'm digging for gold?"
"Star Shatterer, tally how much we've dug so far?" Chu Tian asked.
[1821 tons!]
"Holy crap, that much! Let's continue until we reach 2000 tons, then we'll leave."
Chu Tian thought, "You want me to leave? I'll at least reach a round number."
Half a day later, the target was finally met.
The Star Shatterer automatically began to ascend slowly.
[Rare metal detected. Fusion of multiple metals can be used to manufacture mecha outer shells and precision parts!]
As it reached a certain altitude, the latest system suddenly prompted, feeding back a string of data.
"Hm, what?" Chu Tian was stunned.
"Forget it, I don't know how to build mechs!"
Chu Tian had a moment of impulse, but then thought better of it, as he didn't know how to build them.
[In the hangar of the terminal control system, mecha manufacturing data is stored, and it possesses the Ark System, capable of automatic manufacturing with sufficient ore!]
Just as Chu Tian was about to issue the command to leave, the Star Shatterer prompted again.
Upon hearing its reminder, Chu Tian was genuinely stunned.
He suddenly felt that the Star Shatterer mecha left by HK3106 was not as impressive anymore.
Instead, it felt like the watch he was wearing was the true treasure.
He originally thought this watch was just the control system for the Star Shatterer mecha, and that it could house it in a mobile hangar, even repair it.
He never expected...
That his hangar could also manufacture.
Could he mass-produce mechs and build a mecha army?
"Star Shatterer, scan the metal veins here. How many mechs can be built?"
[Please submit the mecha model for calculation!]
"Model? Mechs have models? What model are you?" Chu Tian asked, eyes wide.
[Yes, specifically, there are four types. The Star Shatterer is an ultimate top-tier battleship-class mecha, manufactured with the resources of an entire universe!]
"What about the other mechs?"
[The other mechs are all human-sized, suitable for single-soldier combat. The ore layers here are extremely rich. If all resources within a hundred-kilometer radius are collected, 6 high-level humanoid mechs can be manufactured, but it is far from enough for ultimate top-tier humanoid mechs.]
"Not even one is enough?"
[Yes, the materials needed for one ultimate top-tier humanoid mecha are almost the sum of 100 high-level humanoid mechs!]
After hearing this, Chu Tian realized how immense the resource demands of the first universe's technology were.
If they continued to develop like this, the entire universe wouldn't be enough for them to mine, would it?
"Dig!" Chu Tian gritted his teeth and said.
Mechs capable of single-soldier combat were what Chu Tian desired most.
Although the Star Shatterer was powerful, it could destroy planets with a single move. He dared not use it under normal circumstances.
Furthermore, its massive size made it cumbersome to operate.
After returning to Blue Star, the Star Shatterer could not be exposed or used.
Just like the attack the Star Shatterer had just launched at the battleship below.
If it were to strike the ground on Blue Star, it might very well hit the planet's core.
After all, compared to Xuantian Star, Blue Star was like a sesame seed next to a watermelon.
[Collection system activated!]
Upon receiving Chu Tian's command, the Star Shatterer directly activated a collection system.
It did not go and dig for gold or diamond itself as before.
After inquiring, Chu Tian learned that these minerals were not pure.
They required the collection system to activate, release mining machines, collect, and purify them.
"Kid, you're not done yet, are you? I need these ores to repair the battleship! You can come and dig after I leave!"
The Star Shatterer once again received a signal from the Blood King.
"Damn it, when are you leaving? How much will you leave me?" This time Chu Tian did not choose to remain silent and replied directly.
Facing such good things, Chu Tian's words became bolder.
What 300-level god-tier monster?
If you piss me off again, I'll blow you up with the Star Shatterer!
Of course, this was just his thought.
Moreover, after these few days, Chu Tian had figured it out.
The reason this guy hadn't attacked him.
Was likely because he was afraid Chu Tian would blast him?
After all, he had already attacked him at the beginning.
The Star Shatterer's counterattack directly blew up his cabin.
In the Heavenly Dao world, he used the mission system to open a teleportation gate and send himself here, and then they followed.
Presumably, they couldn't reach here directly.
Was this considered exploiting a game bug?
If no one had triggered that trial mission.
Would they be stuck in the Heavenly Dao world forever?
Or perhaps in that segment of the Heavenly Dao path that Daotian had separated using his heaven-defying laws?
Of course, all of this might be within Daotian's control.
Daotian might also have used them to send himself here.
After thinking it over, Chu Tian suddenly felt like he was being manipulated.
Forget it, he'd endure it. If he hadn't been manipulated, hadn't been reborn, he would probably still be in that crippled state after his legs were amputated.
This rebirth had completely changed his perception of the world.
Although it seemed he had been drawn into some kind of war.
So what? It was better than living like a dog.
After Chu Tian questioned the Blood King, there was no reply for half a day.
He wasn't in a hurry, watching the truck-sized mining machines deploy one by one.
"After a recent calculation, with our capabilities, we seem unable to complete the repair of the mecha! And there's a crucial problem: even if repaired, we seem unable to activate it!"
After a full half-day, the Blood King's voice came again.
His voice carried a hint of desolation.
