Even the all-purpose Engineer Sun was starting to feel numb.
He had originally been leading people in building a road along the edge of the Black Forest when he suddenly received a call from Yu Sheng, who said there was a special out-of-town "small job" that needed his help. The simple, honest Earthwork Immortal hadn't thought much of it. Following Yu Sheng's instructions, he brought his people and equipment through a door that had appeared directly beside the Black Forest—only to learn that the so-called "small job" was to dig Nine-tailed Demon Fox out from the middle of a mass of fused crystal.
And this Nine-tailed Demon Fox had gotten stuck in the ground because she had carried out a space-based bombardment.
"I'm serious." Engineer Sun's voice came through the speakers of his Power Armor, sounding somewhat muffled. "I've dug trenches on planets on the verge of disintegration, laid roads in strange spaces polluted by entities, and even hammered bunkers together in wastelands ravaged by swarms—but I've really never seen anything like this. Following you has certainly broadened my horizons."
"Don't say that. I feel like my horizons have been broadened too." Yu Sheng laughed and turned to glance at Engineer Sun. "Just tell me whether you can do it. If you can't, I'll ask the Earthwork Immortals of Thousand Peaks Spirit Mountain to think of something."
"You're looking down on me now." Engineer Sun immediately shot Yu Sheng a glance. The pride of a construction worker made him accept the job without hesitation. "It's not like I've never done this kind of work. It's just that I haven't done it before, and it's not difficult. Hold the door open for now. I'll have the guys go back and get some more suitable tools. The ones we brought aren't useful
