Upon reaching their destination, the group saw something that looked like a skull before them.

At the same time, he noticed that these mining machines seemed to use an extremely advanced force-field technology to control their front-end collection arms.
"This doesn't seem very safe. Aren't they worried that mining operations could threaten their survival?" Peter asked.
"The only permanent
