Tang Yuge said in a deep voice, "The metal elements here are extremely dense. The concentration should be more than ninety percent. Although this dragon origin gold can only be considered a low-level rare metal, there are so many of them. Just mining and refining them will be a huge harvest.
"There are many origin dragons outside, and many of them are extremely powerful. They are very sensitive to the metal element, but I used Metal Escape to simulate the shape of dragon origin gold. Therefore, they should treat us as dragon origin gold and won't be able to sense our presence. The magnetic field here can't detect what's going on underground, so it's reasonable that they can't detect us. However, I have to maintain Metal Escape. "
Lan Xuanyu asked, "How long can you maintain it with your cultivation?"
Tang Yuge said, "It's not a problem. I have the support of my soul core. The metal elements here are so abundant that it's enough for me to absorb and convert them. Without fighting, I can maintain Metal Escape for a long time. Shall we continue?"
"Let's go. With your Metal Escape, it seems like our chances of completing the mission have greatly increased. "Lan Xuanyu smiled. Being able to use Metal Escape was their unique advantage. It was an advantage that many Heaven Fighters didn't have.
No matter how dangerous this gray area was, as long as Tang Yuge could use Metal Escape, they wouldn't be discovered even if they were on the ground. They would only be treated as dragon origin gold unless they encountered an origin dragon head-on. This was Tang Yuge's strength.
A faint green light was emitted from Lan Mengqin's body and enveloped the four of them. Everyone was energized. This was pure life energy that could keep them in their best condition.
Tang Yuge led the three of them deeper. They didn't actually have a clear direction, but Tang Yuge could rely on his memory of the metal element to find the way, so they didn't have to worry about getting lost in the gray area.
Tang Yuge led the three of them deeper into the gray area while relying on his perception of the metal element to sense everything outside.
There were many origin dragons in the gray area. Judging from their auras, the eighth-rank origin dragons that were rarely seen outside the gray area were extremely common here. There were also some with especially strong auras. Tang Yuge didn't dare to use his spiritual power mixed with the metal element to detect them.
"Xuan Yu, something's not right," Tang Yuge whispered.
"What's wrong?" Lan Xuanyu hurriedly asked.
Tang Yuge said, "We have been moving forward for about half an hour. In the places we just passed, I sensed at least five suspected rank 9 origin dragons. A ninth-grade origin dragon is at least equivalent to a Hyper Douluo in battle armor, or perhaps even stronger. There were also over a hundred Grade Eight Source Dragons.
"The area we've explored so far is at most one percent of the gray area. Based on this density, the number of high-level Source Dragons in this gray area would be a terrifying number. With such terrifying strength, why didn't they attack the Longyuan Base? "
Lan Xuanyu immediately understood what Tang Yuge meant. The Origin Dragon obviously knew about the existence of humans. Otherwise, it would not have launched the Origin Dragon Tide so often to attack the Longyuan Base. The Longyuan Base was well-equipped and had many powerful individuals. However, if there were hundreds of rank 9 origin dragons in this gray area, what would that mean? If they attacked with all their might, the Longyuan Base would be destroyed. However, why didn't they attack? Why did they allow humans to hunt them down?
According to the records of the Longyuan Base, even if it was an Origin Dragon Tide, there would only be one rank 9 origin dragon at a time.
The Longyuan Base had never explored the gray area. This meant that the Federation's military did not know that there were so many rank 9 origin dragons here.
Just by discovering this situation, Lan Xuanyu's team had already completed more than half of this rank 5 team mission.
"We should be able to complete the mission once we find the reason for this situation." Lan Xuanyu was also a little serious.
According to the Federation's judgment, the Origin Dragon was a creature without intelligence. It only fought based on its instincts.
However, Lan Xuanyu felt that it was a little strange when he first came to the Longyuan Base. If the Origin Dragons really didn't have any intelligence, how did they determine when to advance and when to retreat? If their instincts were to fight, why didn't they kill each other? Also, the Origin Dragon Tide did not seem like a battle without a commander.
They had discovered so many powerful origin dragons in this gray area. Could it be that the Origin Dragons had intelligence and were plotting something?
The Dragon Origin Crystals produced by the Longyuan Base were very important to the Federation's government. They were pure energy that could be used as the core energy of a warship. This greatly satisfied the Federation's warship energy requirements and allowed the Federation to put more resources into building warships.
Lei Junze, who was guarding this resource planet, was about to be promoted from a Major General to a Lieutenant General. This incident showed how important the resources of the Longyuan Base were to the Federation.
This resource planet was near a few administrative planets of the Federation. There was no need to worry about being attacked by external forces or interstellar pirates. Everything was perfect.
The more he thought about this, the more Lan Xuanyu felt that something was wrong. He vaguely felt that he had grasped something, but he couldn't be sure.
"Let's continue to go deeper. Continue to scout and record the number of Rank 9 Origin Dragons you find," Lan Xuanyu said in a deep voice.
The four of them continued to go deeper. The underground world seemed to have become their territory. Metal Escape was very suitable for them to hide here.
Lan Xuanyu and the others even removed their Battle Armors to reduce Tang Yuge's burden as much as possible.
They continued to move forward, changing their direction frequently to scout. Tang Yuge's expression became more and more serious.
She could sense that the Origin Dragons on the surface were not very evenly distributed, but there were many powerful ones. She had sensed the aura of Rank 9 Origin Dragons again and again. She had no doubt that if they appeared on the surface now, they would be torn to pieces by the Origin Dragons above. This was because there were simply too many powerful Origin Dragons above.
One had to know that Origin Dragons that had reached Rank 9 could use their control over the metal element to unleash terrifying attacks like metal storms in a large area at any time. If there was only one Origin Dragon, they could still try to fight it. If there were two Origin Dragons, they would definitely die. Moreover, there were so many Rank 8 Origin Dragons.
"Sixteen." Lan Xuanyu's expression became more serious every time Tang Yuge reported a number. They had already discovered sixteen suspected Rank 9 Origin Dragons.
Fortunately, they hadn't discovered any Rank 10 Origin Dragons. Their strength was at least equivalent to an Ultimate Douluo, and they might even be God-rank existences. Otherwise, they might have discovered them.
Suddenly, Tang Yuge stopped and turned to the right in surprise.
"What's wrong, Yuge?" Bai Xiuxiu asked.
Tang Yuge said, "There's something wrong over there. My spiritual power detected a pause over there. There seems to be a cave over there. "
"Oh? Let's go and take a look, "Lan Xuanyu said immediately.
In fact, he was already prepared to let Tang Yuge lead everyone to retreat. Although they were only moving underground, the discovery this time was really shocking!
There were so many Level 9 Source Dragons in the grey region. Even a God-Grade expert would find it hard to escape unscathed. Moreover, they didn't even know if there were any Grade 10 Source Dragons. There were so many powerful Origin Dragons, but none of them attacked the base. Why was that?
This news alone was enough for the Federation to mobilize their troops.
Tang Yuge led the three of them to move to the right. Suddenly, she stopped and turned to look at Lan Xuanyu. Her expression became extremely solemn.
