Volume 19 Chapter 131 Mining hindered

With my summoning, the ghost and the Queen of Blades soon appeared beside me, but what is more confusing is that these two guys actually came with a large group of people who were chasing them.

"Damn, I asked you to come and take over the mission, but I didn't let you pull the enemy over!"

"We don't want to do it either!" Queen Blade complained helplessly: "They don't know what they did, they just stared at us!"

I glanced at the crowd, and then suddenly noticed a guy standing at the end of the crowd chasing me, and then I understood everything. "Look at that side."

Following my fingers, the Blade Queen and the Ghost both noticed the person I pointed to, and then these two guys who are not inferior to the player's intelligence also reacted.

The guy I'm referring to has no special appearance or gorgeous equipment. The only difference between him and the people around him is that we just met him, right in the hole before the collapse. He was the last guy to escape. The ghost broke the hole just to kill him, but it seemed that this guy ran out again. If he hadn't had a way to avoid the pursuit of missiles, it would be that he had the resurrection skill. In short, this guy who should have died and was buried underground now appears on the ground, and seems to be alive.

When I saw that guy appear, I knew what these people were here for without guessing.

"Ghost, go and block those guys. Queen of Blades, come with me to catch a leader and go back to interrogate."

"Catch the leader?"

"Just whoever the people there are, just catch one of them."

"You'll do this kind of thing just a few times, you'll get it done? Why do you want me to go?"

"Stupid! Compared to us, the other party is a very weak force. If they see me appear here, they will definitely know that the Frost Rose Alliance has been involved. They will definitely know that they are not the opponent of our guild, so as long as they are not too stupid, they will definitely unite to deal with us first. At that time, whatever I want to do will be more than ten times more difficult."

"Oh, I understand." The Queen of Blade quickly turned toward the group of big leaders who were still fighting, and then suddenly a large ball of liquefied metal bulge emerged from her shoulders. The liquefied metal continued to grow and lengthen, and finally formed a short-barrel artillery thing. "President, can you just catch someone here?"

"Of course. But what do you want to do if you get a cannon?"

"This is a catcher, not a cannon, you will understand after a while." The blade said and locked the target on one of the big bosses. Then with a muffled bang, a large metal ball suddenly flew out, and then rushed to the back of one of the big bosses at a lightning speed. Then, just as the moment when it was about to hit the guy, the metal ball suddenly exploded and turned into a huge metal net.

As a director of a large guild in South America, Hab can be regarded as one of the local powerful figures. The battle with these guild leaders who came to grab the mines from somewhere to get information from where to grab the mines made him more confident. The team leaders who came to grab the mines were indeed powerful enough, but there was basically nothing strong that he felt irresistible to him, which made him convinced that his combat power was indeed worthy of pride. However, just when he was fighting with his opponent with confidence, he suddenly realized that the expression of the opponent in front of him was a little wrong, and seemed to have seen something that surprised him.

As a powerful master, Hab's battlefield reaction was naturally not too weak. When he saw his opponent's slow movements due to surprise, he immediately rushed up excitedly, but before he could take action, a large net suddenly opened behind him and wrapped him in. Then the large net tightened instantly and was suddenly pulled back by a huge force. Hab struggled desperately in the net, but everything was in vain. This damn net was extremely solid, and it felt like a metal cage instead of a net, but this thing could be bent, and no matter how it was folded, it would be constantly.

Hab, who was tied like a wild boar, screamed and was pulled in front of me. Then the net was released. Before Hab could react, he put a cloth bag down and packed him up and transported him out of the battlefield.

I took this guy who was struggling and left the chaotic battlefield. I waited until we found a clearing place far away from the battlefield before I put the guy down. In order to let the other party cooperate, the interrogation work could not be carried out by me, so the Queen of Blade became the best candidate for interrogation. Most of my demon pets are too famous and are not suitable for this as much as I do.

After I hid it, the Queen of Blade pulled the cloth bag off the guy's head, and the ghost returned before that, just taking over my position, making it impossible for the guy to find out in terms of quantity that I was hiding.

As soon as the cloth bag was pulled off, the guy jumped up from the ground suddenly, and shouted loudly as he rang at the ghost. But the result was a golden sound that seemed to be hitting a bell. At the same time, the guy was immediately bounced back, and he rolled out seven or eight meters before holding a big tree. No matter how light materials were used, the ghost used a lot of human-shaped creatures composed of metal. Besides, he was more than two meters tall, and even an ordinary person grew up to such a big body, no one could touch it. Besides, the ghost was still a real iron lump. His self-weight had to be counted as a ton. That guy was not a power warrior. If he could really move, it would be a ghost.

Looking at the guy who was hit by him, the ghost strode over and lifted him up, and then threw him back to his previous position.

Although Harb was still very proud of his combat power before, he had an advantage that others did not have, that is, his thoughts were very fast. To put it nicely, this was called flexible thinking and good at adapting. To put it nicely, it was because he was not firm in his will and liked to change his ruthlessness. After the impact, he decisively changed his point of view and immediately surrendered to the ghost, acting like a trained hunting dog, which was so honest.

"Why don't you resist?" The ghost looked at this guy who had just taken the opportunity to attack but has suddenly become extremely honest.

When Hab heard the other party’s question, he quickly replied: “I have fully realized your strong strength, and it is appropriate to surrender in front of the strong.”

"You're so open-minded." The ghost wanted to say something after he said that, but was pulled by the Queen of Blades.

"Tell me, what resources are you here for so powerfully?" After pulling the ghost, Queen Blade directly cut into the right question and asked. Recently, the ghost's reaction was obviously not right. He seemed quite taciturn when he first came out of the laboratory, but in recent hours his words began to change more and more, just like a dull guy who turned into an eloquent playboy in a few hours. This change was quite surprising. Queen Blade certainly had no idea about this situation. The reason why she pulled the ghost was mainly because I used a communicator to remind her.

"I……"

The guy just said a word and said the Queen of Blades first: "I advise you to think about it before talking. The information we know is just incomplete, not completely none. If you dare to mislead us with wrong information, I will let you know what regrets you are."

Hab nodded quickly when he heard this, and then replied seriously: "We came here to grab the pumice stone mine. But we didn't know where the news was leaked. As a result, so many guilds came to grab things from us. The information in that mining area was bought by our guild, and we didn't know what happened..."

The guy seemed to be quite dissatisfied with the leak and complained endlessly as soon as he opened his mouth, but I was not interested in the information behind it. The only thing that really attracted me was pumice stone. The two snowmen we caught before had said that this kind of ore was used to build spacecraft, and now this guy has confirmed that this kind of ore is a pumice stone ore. It is not difficult to draw a correct conclusion with the two corresponding evidences.

To be honest, I really didn't expect that there would be a pumice mine in this place. You should know that pumice is definitely not a high-yield resource, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a scarce resource. Besides, pumice stone is not like any pure gold. Mithril can change the magic and physical properties of the equipment by adding a few grams. The only function of pumice stone is suspension, so it can only be used to reduce the weight of the equipment, or simply use it in large quantities to make something fly directly. However, the support generated by pumice stone of unit quality can be produced.

The power is limited, and the ratio is quite low, so it's okay if you just want to make your armor lighter, but if you plan to let a piece of equipment fly with you, the amount will definitely be calculated at most. So, once pumice stone is used, the amount will be very large. But its output is the same as gold, often dozens of grams or hundreds of grams. That amount is enough to transform a piece of flying equipment. If you want to do something else, don't even think about it if you don't save it for three or five years.

After confirming that the guy was not lying, I asked the Queen of Blades to ask again: "Do you know the specific location of the mining area?"

"It's underground in the place where we just fought, but there was a hole there, but unfortunately it collapsed. I guess it was the good thing that those guys did. We came late and saw that someone would have entered the cave when they arrived first."

Needless to say, the group of people this guy saw should be the one we killed. According to him, wouldn’t the floating corpse mine be in the nest of the prison snake? Really, what would we do if we knew we had come out? But anyway, there were pioneers there, so it would be very fast to dig another hole.

Since we knew where the mine was buried, it would be meaningless to fight with these guys again. We were not here to fight. After directly letting the blade strike out and knocking the guy out of the way, I immediately summoned the Trail Blazers and Rose Vines to start digging back. Of course, the entrance was sealed after we entered, so that no one would use the hole we dug to follow in.

Although the Trail Blazers and Rose Vine are both creatures that are good at digging holes, it is not easy to find the cave we left before. When we came out before, we didn’t have to look at the road at all, just dig up, but it would be troublesome to find it from the ground. The crypt is below the battlefield. We cannot dig a vertical well from the middle of the battlefield, and we can only dig down from where we are now. However, it is actually not easy to ensure the direction of the passage below the ground. Often, it will deviate as we dig, and the final result of this deviation may be...

"Damn, what's going on?" Looking at the underground river flowing in front of me, I was stunned there. "Hey, Trail Blazer, where did you dig?"

The Trail Blazer tried his best to defend himself in the spiritual connection. I knew he couldn't blame him, so I didn't say much, so I could only let him dig back. Unlike regular large excavators, although the Trail Blazer is also good at digging holes, he is a creature after all, so he cannot even penetrate stones like an excavator. During the excavation process, the Trail Blazer will almost instinctively avoid hard matter such as rocks and try to choose softer parts to open holes. During this evasion process, the Trail Blazer will be like walking through the forest.

Like humans, they eventually deviate from the original route of travel because they constantly avoid the trees in front of them. Although the pioneers rely on their strong sense of direction will not make mistakes between east, west, and north, the passages he dug out are not straight lines after all, and it is completely understandable to miss something in the process. Besides, it is not like walking on the ground, and the space under the ground is also three-dimensional. Even if you aim at the direction, you may pass through the top or bottom of the target due to depth issues without knowing it.

Although the process of turning back and opening the road again could not prevent the Trail Blazers from going off again, I learned to be smart this time. In addition to letting the Trail Blazers dig holes in front, I also summoned the peppers. The mental power field of the peppers can penetrate a certain thickness of soil, which is equivalent to invisibly widening the holes dug by the Trail Blazers a lot. As long as the Trail Blazers can maintain the general direction, once we pass by the target, as long as we don’t exceed the sensing range of the peppers, we can immediately discover the cave.

Sure enough, I was much more lucky this time. The Trail Blazer had just dug a little far away and shouted: "Stop, I felt the underground cavity and dig to the lower left, which was only about twenty meters away from us."

After hearing this, the Trail Blazers turned around immediately. After pushing twenty meters in one breath, the Trail Blazers indeed penetrated a big hole. After retracting the Trail Blazers and Rose Vine, we finally returned to the crescent cave before, but the entrance we entered is at the top of the cave. If we hadn't all of us flew, it would be a troublesome thing to go down.

Although the guy who provided information before said that the ore was in this cave, we didn't know the specific location and was still able to get help. Fortunately, we knew that pumice stone was a black thing like coke, and this feature was relatively easy to recognize. After Xiaochun arranged the lighting, I released a lot of death guards and Kirin warriors to help find the ore. Of course, their main job was to clear out the collapsed big hole, because that was also part of the cave, and the possibility of burying pumice stone mines under it was very high. Besides, I asked Lilith to clean up the corpses before I had time to clean up the treasure cave below, so it was very necessary to clean up the other side.

Originally, the workload was quite large, but fortunately we have a lot of people and are not short of large-scale construction equipment (several dragons), so the excavation work was quite rapid. However, the problem still arises.

The pumice mine was discovered soon, but the problem also arose. I originally planned to dig a little back after discovering this thing, but fortunately the peppers were right next to it, otherwise it would be really troublesome. Just when I was about to let Luck start digging, the peppers suddenly reminded that behind the ore was the bed of the underground river we dug before, because the cave was much lower than that underground river, so once the ore was mined, the river water would immediately flow back into the cave here. Although many of my magic pets have the ability to survive underwater, it is definitely not that easy to mine underwater.

After all, my magic pet is just a magic pet. They exist for battle or support battle. It is okay to open a mine for investigation temporarily, but they cannot be used as miners, right? Besides, after our research, this mining area should be a rather annoying large reserve scattered ore. Among them, the total amount of useful pumice stone is very high, but the distribution area is very large. Most of the useful pumice stones are dug out in a unit volume. The content of useful pumice stones is extremely low. The annoying thing about this mining area is that the amount of mining is huge. You can't simply extract pumice stones. You can only dig out nearby rocks, and then divide ore and process them to finally get pumice stones. This series of processes are very complicated. Not to mention that the extra stones mined will also greatly increase the workload. In addition, the area of ​​this mining area is so large, the entire mining process will definitely not take one or two days. It will be considered fast if you can finish mining in a few months.

Such a long mining time determines that I can't use magic pets to mine. In the future, I can only leave it to the construction workers in the guild to mine. Once the mining area is permeable, even large equipment will not be used. Even if everyone has helmets with underwater breathing function go into the water, without equipment assistance, the mining speed will definitely be half lower. Besides, in the water, how do you use tools to dig stones with tools? Waving the pickaxe and shovel can't use force in the water, and explosives cannot be used underwater, otherwise the entire mine will definitely collapse.

Even if you don’t consider the mining equipment and time, once the mining area is permeable, mud alone can make people feel annoyed. As long as you do something under the water, you will inevitably muddy the water, and the mud and sand suspended in the water will not fall to the ground as quickly as the dust in the air. At that time, it will definitely cause a lot of mud. Not to mention mining, you can’t see it if you accidentally knock the tool on someone’s head.

Seeing such a large pumice mine that could not be dug, it was simply a cat who watched the fish on the plate not be allowed to be eaten. Isn’t this intention to kill a human being? I couldn’t think of a solution for a while, so I simply activated the communicator to contact the military god. The three cobblers were even more arrogant. If they were to put the think tanks in the guild, it would be a waste.
