Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System-Chapter 751 - 707: Unknown Wall

Not only that, after enduring a noise interference from this high-intensity friction for a dozen seconds, the entire spacecraft did not advance an inch.

In other words, after such a long period of friction, they still hadn't broken through whatever was blocking the drill bit from moving forward.

This left Lin Yi momentarily unsure of what was happening.

He also couldn't discern what exactly was blocking the way ahead.

Could it really just be a mineral?

But what kind of mineral would have such strength?

Or perhaps, is there a special metallic mineral inside the moon?

Though puzzled, Lin Yi felt this was a relatively normal occurrence.

After all, it was the first time humanity had set foot on the moon.

Humans have no idea what kind of minerals are on this mysterious celestial body.

Because of this, after a period of no progress, Lin Yi decisively ordered the spacecraft to retreat.

However, he did not intend to return outright; instead, he wanted to maneuver the spacecraft to go around whatever was ahead.

In this way, after the spacecraft, originally advancing in a straight line, retreated a certain distance, it veered to another side to drill forward.

To successfully avoid this area, Lin Yi even maneuvered the spacecraft to drill laterally for nearly 50 meters before continuing to move forward.

Based on his estimation, even if the mining area was quite dense, he believed 50 meters should suffice.

In fact, Lin Yi had another hypothesis in mind.

That the object he encountered was possibly the culprit behind the meteor crater, perhaps the very meteor that once struck the moon, or a small comet.

And over this extraterrestrial iron, what material could it possibly be? Why is it so hard?

Isn't there an old saying? When a meteor falls, it creates an unparalleled divine weapon.

It made sense that such a thing would be incredibly hard.

One must admit, Lin Yi had quite the vivid imagination.

If this guy were to write a novel, he might even become a renowned author.

Of course, at that moment, Lin Yi couldn't possibly write a novel, not in this lifetime.

After all, the exhausting lifestyle of a web novelist isn't something he enjoys.

Ahem, I've digressed a bit. Let's return to the main story.

Lin Yi chose to strategically retreat and go around this thing.

But to his dismay, even after drilling 50 meters laterally and exploring in depth again, he still encountered the same issue.

For a moment, Lin Yi felt exasperated. Could the meteor or comet inside already exceed a hundred meters in size?

With this thought, Lin Yi simply turned again and drilled another 100 meters laterally.

Simultaneously, he thought, this time, I should be able to get around it, right?

However, what happened next left him completely speechless.

Even after 100 meters, the unknown object continued to block his path.

This was followed by 150 meters, 200 meters, 300 meters, until reaching the maximum drilling depth of the ship, yet the obstacle remained unbroken.

Suddenly, Lin Yi was extremely frustrated. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

"What the hell is this thing?"

Even a mining area shouldn't have such a high density!

There must be some gap for me to pass through, right?

Could this really be a small comet?

But that doesn't seem right!

After all, we've already covered at least 600 meters, and if a comet were really this big, wouldn't it knock the moon out of orbit on impact?"

Lin Yi's statement wasn't an exaggeration — if a comet with a diameter of 600 meters struck the lunar surface, it would certainly cause significant waves.

And the small meteor crater outside couldn't possibly be the result of such an impact.

Yet, Lin Yi didn't give up. Instead, he decided to return the way he came, then began drilling in the opposite direction from his original position.

In a flash, another 600 meters was drilled.

In this direction, Lin Yi still couldn't succeed in drilling as he continued to be obstructed by the unknown object.

This time, Lin Yi was completely bewildered.

Having already drilled 600 meters laterally, and another 600 meters in reverse, that was already a total of 1200 meters!

And this is only due to the travel limitation of the spacecraft he was in, preventing further exploration, meaning he still didn't know how many more meters lay ahead.

Because of this, Lin Yi abandoned his previous notion; perhaps it wasn't an extraterrestrial body, certainly not a moon or a meteor.

There was a high likelihood that this was a part of the moon's internal structure.

Yet what confused him was, they had only drilled about 100 meters underground, still an extremely long way from the moon's core.

If this were on Earth, they would've drilled a deeper well, and even that wouldn't reach such depths.

How could the moon's interior have such high density?

Driven by curiosity, Lin Yi decided not to advance further, but instead began excavating around the initial entry point;

In no time, through his maneuvers, an area the size of a football field had emerged 100 meters below the lunar surface.

After completing all of this, Lin Yi could vaguely make out what was blocking him.

The reason for the vague visibility was the excessive darkness in the area.

Relying on his own lights and looking through the spacecraft's glass, it was nearly impossible to discern the true appearance of the dirt-covered wall ahead.

But this didn't hinder Lin Yi; since he couldn't clearly see from inside, he decided to continue expanding the excavation.

Furthermore, this time Lin Yi went even further, directly digging a large hole.

His plan was to dig a pit the size of a football field at this depth, so he could directly bring the UFO from outside in.

Once the UFO was inside, not only would they have a stronger light source, he could even put on a spacesuit and go down to personally see what was blocking the way.

Acting on this impulse, Lin Yi's tenacity and the drill's high speed resulted in a crater with a diameter of over a hundred meters within an hour of effort, appearing beneath Lin Yi's feet.
