Chapter 539 Cangshi Town

In the following time, the two of them stayed together on the bed for a while, and finally it was time to leave.

The engine roared and the air flow rolled. In the outer courtyard, the "Vulture" transport plane slowly took off and gradually disappeared into the southern sky.

Standing in the outer court, Wang Weiwei and Chen Xiong looked at the "Vulture" transport plane going away in silence.

At this time, the expressions on their faces seemed calm, but they were thinking about many things in their hearts.

he's gone……

When the "Vulture" transport plane was no longer visible in the distant sky, Wang Weiwei withdrew her sight.

Looking back at her husband beside her, Wang Weiwei said calmly: "Black Flag City is not as good as here. Learn the relevant knowledge and prepare yourself to be qualified as the district chief. You don't have much time left."

Looking back at his wife beside him, Chen Xiong's eyes flashed with surprise, and he replied: "I will."

A trace of hesitation flashed across his face, and Chen Xiong said, "Let's have dinner together at noon."

After glancing at her husband, Wang Weiwei said without changing her expression: "Okay."

Above the clouds, in the sea of ​​clouds, a "Vulture" transport plane was flying at high speed.

Sitting on his seat in the cabin, Li Meng looked at the sea of ​​clouds outside the window.

This scene is very quiet and beautiful. The sunlight shines on the extreme temperature layer, and its bright colors are very gorgeous, giving people a refreshing feeling and a yearning for self-flying.

The speed of the "Vulture" transport aircraft is much faster than the speed of the "Sea Whale" airship.

Two hours later, the huge hull of the "Sea Whale" airship appeared in the sea of ​​clouds ahead.

During the flight, the harbor gate on the right side of the "Sea Whale" airship slowly opened.

From the gate, the "Vulture" transport plane flew steadily into the harbor.

It only took six or seven hours from departure to return, and the "Sea Whale" airship was already very close to its destination.

"Captain, we should be able to reach Cangshi Town before dark."

Back on the bridge, Li Meng sat down on the captain's seat in front of everyone's eyes.

No one asked Li Meng what he did in Shangyang City because it had nothing to do with them.

Zhao Yufang, who was at the lower level, reported to Li Meng.

It was getting late. At this time, outside, the sun was about to set and the sky would get dark soon. In other words, they were very close to Cangshi Town.

Leaning back and leaning against the seat, Li Meng said calmly: "After arriving near the destination, the airship will hover above the clouds. It is not suitable to move in the dark. We will wait until dawn."

Speaking of this, Li Meng said to Zhao Hongwen, who was sitting in the row of seats behind him: "Prepare a small team and follow me down early tomorrow morning."

Zhao Hongwen nodded and said: "Yes!"

Without saying anything else, Li Meng stood up and walked out of the bridge.

He is tired and needs to rest.

Returning to the captain's cabin, which was very close to the bridge, Li Meng sat down on the seat behind the desk.

With his right hand on the bracelet on his left wrist, blue light flashed, forming a small holographic screen above his arm.

In the think tank, using his authority, Li Meng entered the internal database of Kangnan Mining Company.

So that’s it…

Looking at the information about the mining base in Cangshi Town in the database, Li Meng suddenly realized.

No wonder Kangnan Mining Company went to such a far away place for mining. It turned out that the predecessor of the mining stronghold was an abandoned platinum mine. Building a new mining stronghold on the abandoned mine would save a lot of expenses.

And a valuable platinum mine is worth the risk.

Black Flag City's existing technology is enough to forge stronger B-grade titanium alloys, but platinum, the material used in B-grade titanium alloys, accounts for a large proportion. Due to too few platinum resources, B-grade titanium alloys cannot be forged routinely. Therefore, only a small amount of B-grade titanium alloy can be used on some high-end components.

Since platinum resources are scarce, its price is naturally expensive. Even if the platinum storage capacity of this mine is only a few thousand tons, Kangnan Mining Company can still make a lot of money.

"Click..."

At this moment, the door was pushed open.

Yang Xiuling walked in wearing a silver-gray dress.

Seeing the captain sitting on the chair behind the desk looking at something, she smiled slightly, went to the refrigerator, opened the refrigerator, and took out a cup and a bottle of grape juice produced in Black Flag City.

After pouring a glass of juice, Yang Xiuling came to the desk and placed the cup filled with juice on the table in front of Li Meng.

Li Meng raised his head and glanced at Yang Xiuling at the desk. He picked up the water glass and took a sip of sweet grape juice.

"Captain, are you hungry? If you are, I will prepare dinner for you. What do you want to eat?"

Hearing what Yang Xiuling said, Li Meng did feel hungry.

This body is very strong and consumes a lot of energy. After tossing Wang Weiwei all morning, a lot of energy was consumed in her body.

At the end of the day, Li Meng didn't eat breakfast or lunch, so he naturally felt hungry.

With a faint smile, Li Meng said: "I am indeed hungry, so let's get some."

Without saying anything more, Yang Xiuling said, "Then I'll go get ready."

With that said, Yang Xiuling turned and left, not forgetting to close the door when she left.

Looking at the closed door, Li Meng smiled slightly and looked at the holographic screen again.

This woman Yang Xiuling...

How should I put it, in Li Meng's eyes, she is like a nanny. She takes good care of him and Chen Beier in daily life. With her around, Chen Beier's home is much cleaner and more refreshing.

Li Meng knew why she wanted to stay with him. He had advised her, but Li Meng respected her wishes.

Putting aside the random thoughts in his mind, Li Meng's face was thoughtful.

What happened to the mining base next to Cangshi Town?

Why did they lose contact?

Was it attacked by a strange beast?

No, now the communication satellites of Black Flag City have spread all over the world without dead ends. Even with a thick polar layer, the signal can be transmitted freely.

Even if something happened to the mining base and it was attacked by a strange beast, the staff of the mining base had enough time to send a distress signal to Kangnan Mining Company, and the mercenaries of GYB-0 Security Company had enough time to request support or help from the headquarters.

But what is strange is that neither Kangnan Mining Company nor GYB-0 Security Company received a call for help from the mining base, and the mining base suddenly lost contact.

Everything is unknown at the moment, and we can only wait until tomorrow to find out.

Time passed quickly, and darkness fell as the sun set.

Under the moonlight, the "Sea Whale" airship also arrived at its destination, stopped moving, and hovered above the clouds.

For the mercenaries in the "Sea Whale" airship, tonight is a peaceful night.

The airship is located more than 10,000 meters in the sky, above the thick polar temperature layer. Even if the alien beasts on the ground have the ability to break through the polar temperature layer, they will not wander around in the polar temperature layer at will.

For humans, the space above the polar temperature layer is a safe area. In this area, there is no need to worry about the threat of alien beasts.

The night gradually deepened, and there was no talk all night...
