CHAPTER 903: CHAPTER 992: ANOTHER GREAT TREASURE FOUND!

Jing Shu also swallowed a gulp of saliva. Having lived through the apocalypse for many years, she had seen plenty of food and various treasures, but never had she witnessed so much—ammunition.

"280, RDS, 12.7mm, PIAI"

Boxes of orange-yellow waterproof standard iron ammunition boxes were stacked together, filling the entire several hundred square meters of the villa to the brim.

Each iron box has labels with model and bullet caliber, featuring all sorts of bullet calibers.

Jing Shu even found precious grenades and rocket launcher ammunition, all placed on the second and third floors of the villa, still stacked box upon box, from low to high, packed full, leaving only a narrow gap for passage.

No wonder the tunneling insects couldn’t dig in; this villa has been specially modified. The ammunition here is so abundant it could support an army of tens of thousands fighting for a long time.

In the apocalypse, food is precious, and bullets are also precious; each bullet is worth at least one or two Virtual Coins. Considering the total in square meters, Jing Shu conservatively estimates it to be in the millions.

And these supplies are just one among many villas.

This represents that the Military Base is not only abundant in ammunition, possibly even other weapons are adequately stocked.

No wonder, in this impoverished Middle East, even the ordinary guards have standard military weapons; it turns out there’s so much good stuff hidden here.

Jing Shu opened a few boxes, finding everything preserved well, and smacked her lips, saying, "Guo Tou, looks like we’re going to hit it big. If we trade this weaponry with brother countries’ Old Yi, who knows how much oil we can get in return? They are really in need of this stuff."

Guo Tou nodded and swallowed. He didn’t understand all these convoluted matters; he just knew that soon, he’d have meat to eat—a lot of meat.

Jing Shu quietly released more insects for nearby scouting.

With so many supplies and so many Power Users guarding, it must be not simple; she’s just afraid to touch a Power User’s taboo, alerting them, so the more at times like this, the more careful she must be.

She added, "Guo Tou, contact Xiao Wei, and urgently dispatch at least over 200 large tunneling insects to transport the supplies. There might be more here than we thought."

"By the way," Jing Shu squinted her eyes, "don’t make any rash moves now; I suspect there are still Power Users guarding this place. Let me check it first before starting the transport."

Guo Tou nodded quickly, "I’ll follow Sister Jing’s instructions."

Next, Jing Shu and Guo Tou went to several more villas. If the tunneling insects could open them, then there was almost nothing valuable, but if the tunneling insects couldn’t, then it must be good stuff.

Jing Shu discovered two more ammunition depots and three full armories, with shoulder-held rocket launchers and artillery casually stacked inside the villa, making it very tempting.

After a tour, Jing Shu had a clear understanding of what there was, but she felt something was still missing.

Suddenly, there were frequent vibrations underground; the tunneling insects were encountering problems.

Jing Shu quickly led Guo Tou down to a transfer station more than twenty meters underground.

It had been expanded to over a hundred square meters, fearing collapse, the tunneling insects even transported over a dozen huge reinforced concrete pillars to prop it up.

However, now, the heads of the several-meter-long tunneling insects were all bleeding and baked black reefs.

"What have they encountered again?"

The tunneling insects led Jing Shu to the depths of the tunnel.

Originally, the tunneling insects were assigned routes to excavate three routes: one for escape, one for transport, and one backup. Every five hundred meters, there would be a cross point to connect them.

But the problem appeared at this Northwestern corner; originally, this was the convergence cross point of the three lines, but the insects couldn’t dig through from three sides.

They could only dig a detour, but even then, it still wasn’t open.

The detour kept expanding, gradually forming a huge vacuum zone in the middle, and whenever the tunneling insects dug nearby, they’d get electrocuted by the surrounding high-pressure electric grid.

Jing Shu frowned: "Burying high-pressure electric grid dozens of meters underground, unless one isn’t thinking straight, there must be something wrong here."

Arriving at the end of the tunnel, it was pitch dark, with a heavy scent of soil and rust, and going forward, indeed, was a dense tangle of wires.

Guo Tou was puzzled: "Who’s got such a screw loose, burying wires underground?"

Jing Shu put on insulated gloves and gently grabbed the wires.

The conditions for Magic Cube Space to collect materials include touching the object or using a material as a conductor to transfer all contacted conductors into Magic Cube Space.

After the last upgrade of Magic Cube Space, her sense of the space became deeper, and she gained a deeper understanding.

Now, it can not only transfer all conductors it touches into Magic Cube Space but also observe items through the point of contact.

In layman’s terms, through touching these wires, Magic Cube Space provides her with all objects the wires are in contact with.

Of course, this has a range—the range is the size of Magic Cube Space.

So, in an instant, Magic Cube Space simulated the arrangement of all things around the wires, essentially mapped it into Jing Shu’s mind.

Consequently, Jing Shu ’saw’ everything surrounding the wires.

Seeing this, Jing Shu’s breathing became tight.

It turns out the wires surround a huge net that encloses a large spherical iron chamber within.

Jing Shu didn’t know what was inside this sphere, but judging by its scale and presence, the items inside the iron spherical chamber are not simple.

"It’s something good!"

Guo Tou asked: "What’s the good stuff?"

Jing Shu pondered for a moment, "It should be some sort of secret weapon, otherwise it wouldn’t be hidden this deep underground, and protected with such measures."

Guo Tou was further curious: "Why isn’t this stuff kept aboveground, rather hidden underground?"

This was something Jing Shu did understand, albeit a bit: "Because all countries now have radar cruise tracking systems. It’s like with the previous near-war with Taiwan, people said it wouldn’t take a minute to hold your ID card and cross over to start selling barbecued pork and rice noodles.

If you were to start a war on Friday morning, you could process ID cards by the afternoon and still watch the news at night.

Taiwan’s missiles wouldn’t even get to fly before getting wiped out, because their weapon systems are all monitored and controlled.

To evade tracking, some countries bury secret weapons deep under the soil."
