Chapter 1 Let’s Go Mining
On the endless sand, semi-underground houses were connected front to back. The walls were made of crushed stones mixed with adhesive, and the roofs were made of thin stone slabs.

Not far away, the sky and the dust merged together, whistling and sweeping away all obstructions on the road, approaching rapidly with a destructive pressure.

……

When the storm and sandstorm finally left, no ridges could be seen on the sand and rows of houses were buried.

Su You lay on the bed and listened attentively for a long time before she was sure that the sandstorm was over.

“It’s finally over.”

She shook out the old blanket covering her body, and dust filled the air.

Dust off the sand on the desk lamp and light it up.

Three years ago, Su You was still a bedridden terminally ill patient.

Three years later, she became a "three-no" person in the future world.

No money, no identity, no memory.

And he also brought a small burden with him.

Before she fell seriously ill and died, a voice appeared in her mind, asking her carefully and politely if she was willing to go to another world and complete a mission.

Su You agreed.

Even though the mission was difficult, she tried her best. After all, she could still survive, and even survive in the future, so it was not a loss.

When she first arrived, she woke up in this dilapidated house. Next to her was a woman who was not breathing. Next to the woman was a newborn baby boy who was crying at the top of his lungs.

The baby was naked, with broken black eggshells scattered around him.

Su You was not surprised by Dan Ke, but quickly picked up the cub and started to coax him.

Bound to her system number 0977, its ultimate goal is to allow Su You to complete an exquisite specimen containing thousands of plants.

According to 0977, there are many worlds outside the Earth where no plants grow. The people there have never seen bright flowers or tall, thriving trees.

Therefore, Su You’s mission is to bring plants into their world and create a plant specimen that passes the system’s certification and is collected in the plant collection of the Space-Time Administration.

The system chose Su You because her major was closely related to plants.

"Unfortunately, when I found you, your life had already come to an end, and I didn't have enough energy to continue looking for the next host. I had no choice but to take your soul and force my way to the mission world first. If I can find a suitable body, that would be great. If not, I will apply for credit and let the main system create a body for you."

Fortunately, 0977 made the right bet, and he met a body that was % compatible with him as soon as he traveled through time.

In this way, Su You became a glorious miner with children. Although he was poor, he was still alive.

Opening the secret door under the bed, Su You took out a small and soft cradle, carefully wiped off the thin layer of sand on the breathable mask of the sleeping baby, and then untied the mask, revealing the baby's fair and cute sleeping face.

When she first came, her original sister had a difficult delivery, and another child in her belly was dying along with the adults. She was put into a system space cabinet where time was stagnant by 0977.

At the same time, it also used up the last bit of energy of 0977.

"Yuzu, it's time for us to set off." System 0977 reminded.

Su You quickened her pace, handed the snoring Guoguo to 0977 for protection, and tied the strongest package around her chest.

It's time for her to go mining.

After the sandstorm ends, it is the annual free mining day on Sand Star. No matter what precious ores you dig up during these three days, you do not have to hand them in. You can go to the central area ore bank in Sand Star to exchange them for credit points.

Credit points are equivalent to money on Earth and are used for all living expenses.

She only got 30 credit points for a day's mining. And the mining area was not always willing to provide equipment for a skinny person like her.

Ahem...Su You covers her face and wraps her hair every day, wears ragged clothes, hunches over, and walks slowly, just like an old woman who is about to die at any moment.

No one wanted to rob her of her money, after all, if they pushed her, they might end up killing someone and getting sued.

She had no access to outside information here, and the farthest she had ever been was the central area of ​​Sand Star. Even if she saved up a month's worth of credits, she still couldn't rent a cheap place to stay. Su You pinned her hopes on Freedom Day.

Last year on Freedom Day, she dug up a thirty-gram piece of starstone.

The market price of starstone is one thousand credit points per gram.

It’s a pity that in addition to supporting her family, she also has to maintain the system.

0977 can absorb energy but must use the host as a medium to absorb pure energy in order to maintain basic operation.

However, the body that Su You wore had very poor physical fitness. After handing in the ore he mined every day, he could only achieve the minimum KPI and get a guaranteed daily reward of 30 credit points.

In order to prevent 0977 from becoming the first system in history to die of hunger, Su You reluctantly left the Starlight Stone behind.

After absorbing the energy from the starstone, 0977 has maintained the lowest energy loss, operating during the day and on standby at night, and has managed to survive until this year.

Su You encouraged herself and walked out the door.

Many people have already set out.

She first followed the long line for half an hour, and when the line thinned out, she turned around and walked into the mine, twisting and turning before she found the cave entrance where she had left her mark.

When mining last month, 0977 collected abnormal energy fluctuations here. Su You left a mark and waited for Free Day to come and take a look.

Pushing open the door of the mine entrance, the surveillance mechanical eyes that used to glow every day are all dim today, and the mine has become the miners' territory.

Su You walked along the channel for transporting ore for about ten minutes. Following the instruction of 0977, he walked along a rather steep path and went deeper into the darker underground.

Su You handed the cub in her arms to the system and transferred it to the safe system space before she dared to explore boldly.

After three years of mining life, she has become a lot braver.

The searchlight on your forehead illuminates the road under your feet.

The further down they went, the quieter it became. The air in front of them seemed to be covered by a veil that was getting thicker and thicker. Su You reached out to push it away, but it was empty again.

Where no one has gone before, opportunities abound, but dangers lurk as well.

After a while, the walls on both sides were sparkling with glowing star-shaped broken stones, and the light became brighter and brighter.

"Yuzu, there's a pretty good piece half a meter to the left that can produce about five grams of moonstone."

Moonstone, fifty star coins per gram.

Su You picked up the laser cutting knife, quickly collected it and put it in the bag behind her.

Then continue to descend, hoping that good luck will remain.

After walking for more than ten minutes, she suddenly heard a very slight sound in the quiet mine.

“Crack—crack—”

It was like a reptile sliding along the grass, but this place was full of large pieces of ore, and the reptile would not make any sound here.

0977 After some exploration, "Yuzu, after searching the area within ten meters, there are no small living animals."

"Also, I don't have enough energy to search again."

"Then we have to be careful." Su You held the protective gear tightly in his hand and continued to descend.

Giving herself another hour, if she couldn't find the next valuable ore, she would quit immediately.

She also has to take care of Guoguo and can't let him get hurt easily.

Half an hour later, Su You stopped at a hidden cave entrance. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. "77, I'm not seeing things, am I?"
