Small-scale anomalous geomagnetic fields distributed in special areas like abandoned mine pits are influenced by the large-scale magnetic field of Source Star, resulting in periodic disturbances.
This is the correct answer.
You only know what it is, but I know why it is so.
However, today’s solar storm is not that strong. The real cause of the geomagnetic disturbance in the abandoned mine pit is the two super large magnetic field generators that Ren Zhong placed at the two main First Level magnetic nodes this morning.
Ren Zhong chose to act today not simply by picking an auspicious day.
He used Lin Wang’s "common knowledge" to mask the unreasonable phenomenon against a reasonable backdrop.
Element compatibility, +1.
The group walked a few more minutes inside, and Lin Wang again efficiently slew the next Level Four Ruined Beast.
This time, the one who nearly suffered from the frenzied attack of the Maze Bug was Bei Lihui.
Fortunately, the self-reacting shield on Bei Lihui’s body responded quickly, detaching from his shoulders in time to block two redirected flying needles from behind.
Of course, with Bei Lihui’s equipment performance, such an ambush was not beyond his capability to endure; it just left two small dents on his self-reacting shields.
Watching Si Mawan dismantle the Crystal Chip, an unfazed Bei Lihui smugly said, "Heh heh, guess what I’m thinking right now?"
"I’m thinking about how many people Tang Shuying, that unfortunate woman, will lose today. My equipment and the captain’s equipment are fine, but they are a bit behind us. If they keep pushing head-on, there’s no way they won’t have casualties."
Lin Wang nodded, "They don’t have overwhelming strength, so unless they’re being foolish, they should sensibly avoid confrontation and leave the abandoned mine pit, like we did the year before last."
Ren Zhong was delighted, "That would be a good thing!"
Element compatibility, +1.
By observing on the previous timeline and through the video captured by Yujin of Lin Wang’s encounter with the professional team’s conflict recently, Ren Zhong perfectly judged the power levels of the two teams.
He adjusted the power of the super large magnetic field generators to ensure that the frenzy level of the Ruined Beasts in the abandoned mine pit was just bearable for the two teams, but Lin Wang found no issues.
Ren Zhong suggested, "Then Captain, why don’t we do what they did before? Work a little overtime today and take over their hunting zone as well?"
Lin Wang shook his head, "That’s unnecessary. I’m not familiar with their territory. Among the three teams, our hunting zone is already the largest. Today, we just need to extend slightly along the original planned route. Even though Bei Lihui and I aren’t afraid, our self-reacting protective equipment still consumes resources, and the armor still suffers some damage under the assault of frenzied Ruined Beasts, so there’s no need to take extra risks."
Ren Zhong nodded, "The captain is truly thorough in his considerations."
Lin Wang showed Ren Zhong a map, which he had taken the time to modify earlier.
Lin Wang pointed to a spot on the projection, "Today, we’ll go here and then return, inspecting a total of forty-four Level Four Ruined Beast refresh points. You’ll have to work a bit harder."
Ren Zhong: "Alright!"
Element compatibility, +1.
A quarter past ten in the morning.
The four reached the turnaround point and slew another Level Four Ruined Beast.
The rewards were substantial.
Si Mawan was dismantling a Crystal Chip.
Lin Wang stood next to Si Mawan with his arms crossed.
Ren Zhong and Bei Lihui were at a corner at the entrance of the mine pit.
Continuing forward from this corner was another return route.
From time to time, Bei Lihui lowered his head to organize his protective equipment, saying, "Ren Zhong, after Starfire Town is disbanded, Ju Qingmeng will likely be transferred back to Chongyi County. What do you plan to do then? You can take Zheng Tian and Hanyu away, but the decision about someone like Ju Qingmeng, who is a Citizen, isn’t up to you."
Ren Zhong’s body language started to tense up; his left hand pinched his right wrist, his right hand resting on the belt buckle, and he sighed, "I don’t know. We’ll probably just part ways."
Bei Lihui chuckled, "See? I really thought you Citizens don’t even know how to break up. You should be more straightforward, like me."
"Thanks for the advice, Hui Bro."
"Haha, but you look a bit down. Seems like your words don’t match your feelings."
A crisp clang sounded.
Ren Zhong’s right hand shook free a red streak from his belt.
In the blink of an eye, his left hand moved down to join his right hand, gripping the long handle together.
