With a clang, the half-closed gate was pushed open, revealing the mine, which had ceased operations even before the Giant Beast Calamity, to Captain Luo Yan.
One after another, armored transport vehicles drove into the mine and stopped in the parking lot. Luo Yan got out and looked around. The entire mine was deathly silent, without a trace of human activity.
It had clearly been abandoned for a long time. Several bulldozers and trucks had been left in the lot.
Of course, those vehicles had long since been scrapped. Their metal shells were rusted, their tires deformed, and one of them had even overturned onto the ground, like a corpse that had been dead for ages.
At that moment, Xin Zeyang arrived nearby with his team. They carried all kinds of equipment, but the most eye-catching items were several robots.
These robots used tracked mobile chassis like tanks, allowing them to traverse most types of terrain.
Their bodies contained numerous storage compartments, enabling them to carry large quantities of tools and supplies.
Over the past two years, auxiliary robots like these had become quite common.
With an industrial foundation capable of producing mechs, manufacturing auxiliary robots like these was not difficult. However, resources had been scarce after the disaster, so the Strategic Affairs Department had used them only where they were most needed.
Now that even a Surface Base from the "Great Wall" series could be funded and built, producing auxiliary robots like these was a simple matter.
"Captain Luo Yan, we're ready."
Looking at Xin Zeyang, Luo Yan nodded, then addressed the others.
"Captain Bai?, you and Xia Yan and Yang Kui stay on the surface."
"Stand by inside your mechs and protect the mine. Try not to let any giant beasts or other factors interfere with us."
Bai?
