Chapter 16: The Mining Boy
Two days later.
Lu Ming returned to school.
He mingled among the new students, carrying a backpack, looking no different from those pink freshmen, very low-key.
"Wow, internship, I'm looking forward to it. ”
"I've heard that there are still a lot of credits. ”
"But...... I heard from a senior two days ago that this internship is not good...... It's a pit. ”
"How is it possible, this is the policy that must be implemented as required by the above!"
"That is, don't spread rumors. ”
Some people were chattering and discussing.
Everyone was carrying a bulging backpack, as if they were going on a trip.
Scold.
A smile appeared on the corner of Lu Ming's mouth, cute little guys.
Although people in this world are sinister and crises are everywhere, I have to say that these little guys who have just entered school are still quite cute.
Soon.
The school's shuttle bus departs and delivers the new students to their destinations in batches.
It was a mountain range.
The processing plant is located halfway up the mountain, where the students can eat, lodging, and have a simple recreation.
In the higher mines, it is the complex mines that are mined one by one, and the task of this internship is to go to the mines and dig out these power stones.
"Hey, look here, food and lodging are free today. But starting tomorrow, different foods need to be replaced with Submit Power Stones...... The more gems you submit, the better you can redeem for food, accommodation, and even entertainment......"
"Wow, can this be?"
The students were amazed.
"Look, these foods are actually divided into grades, and there are also legendary cultivation meals. ”
Some students excitedly.
Cultivation meals, meals made with some meat or spiritual grass that contain powerful energy as raw materials, after taking them, are very beneficial to cultivation.
Many students' eyes lit up.
This kind of thing......
"The dormitory conditions seem to be divided into grades, the highest level, and you can actually exchange for a practice room. ”
Everyone was pleasantly surprised.
Practice room!
It was a room specially prepared for cultivation, the energy concentration in the room was extremely high, and the cultivation speed was very fast, unexpectedly, this kind of room was also prepared here.
"Look here. ”
Another exclamation.
Everyone walked by and looked at it, and they immediately became excited.
Virtual Fantasy Game Equipment!
It's actually the highest level fantasy game!
Oh, my God.
It's a fully immersive gaming device!
There are many of them here, their family conditions are average, and they have never come into contact with this kind of high-level illusion equipment in their lives, and they are already excited at this moment.
It's a virtual fantasy!
I've heard of this kind of realistic game, but it's everything!
And those legendary young ladies......
They can't think about it.
Integral!
Integral!
All the students were beaten like chicken blood.
The staff who led them in from a distance were very satisfied, look, these intern student babies are simply too easy to serve, casually a little sweet......
Gee.
Hard working without complaint.
Rushing for work?
And at the moment.
in the crowd.
Lu Ming blended in in a low-key manner.
Looking at the excited students, he smiled like an old father.
These silly kids......
Think it's that simple?
Xiao Luming had already experienced this cheating process once last year.
From meals and lodging to entertainment, the factory offers distinct levels of service – S-level, A-class, B-class, C-level that can be redeemed as long as enough points are provided.
These services can be used not only for enjoyment and cultivation, but also for ......
Share your circle of friends.
Especially in these student groups.
Lu Ming took a look, and there were already some students with strong vanity who began to compare.
"Young. ”
Lu Ming sighed deeply.
Than what?
It's all leeks!
How do I get these premium services?
Points Redemption.
So where do these points come from?
Mining!
Eight hours of normal working mining is only enough for you to eat three meals a day!
Want more?
Then work harder!
Ten hours, twelve hours a day, not enough! Only sixteen or eighteen hours a day can be redeemed for those premium services!
And during this period, the value that a student can create......
Far more than that!
"You seem to know something. ”
A somewhat cold voice came.
Lu Ming looked back and saw that the person who spoke was actually a silver-haired young man, who was quite handsome, just a little worse than himself. And the most attractive thing is that he is carrying a bow on his back, and there seems to be a bow and arrow in the bag at his waist.
"Archer?"
Lu Ming was a little surprised.
In Xiao Lu Ming's memory, there seems to be this profession.
However, under normal circumstances, the number of people who choose this profession is still relatively small because of the cost...... The cost of maintaining the bow and the cost of consuming the arrows are a lot of money.
Maybe.
That's why elementalists are running all over the ground.
"Yes. ”
The silver-haired boy nodded slightly.
"You only have one arrow left. ”
Lu Ming glanced at his quiver.
"Well, because it's more expensive. ”
The silver-haired boy's expression was more helpless.
"It's better than paper, after all, you're a shooter. ”
Lu Ming thought so.
“??”
The silver-haired boy was confused.
Shooter...... What does it have to do with fee paper?
"My name is Xia Yu. ”
The silver-haired boy introduced, "I just looked at your expression, and it seems that I have some understanding of this internship activity. ”
"I participated in it last year. ”
Lu Ming shrugged.
"It turned out to be a senior. ”
Xia Yu was solemn, "I just looked at those high-level services, it seems to be good, the only thing that worries people is the efficiency of points acquisition, so ......"
"You guessed it. ”
Lu Ming said with a smile.
"Sure enough. ”
Xia Yu sighed.
He knew that the school would not be so caring.
At this moment, the teacher came over again and handed out the map of the mine, because the mine was too large and complicated, so it needed the guidance of the map.
Brush!
Lu Ming flipped through the map.
In the mine, there is not much change from last year.
The mine is divided into two areas, with the mining area on the periphery, and the inside is a complex of intertwined cavities. And deeper, there are mining areas, areas that have not yet been developed.
"The mining area is a little deeper than last year. ”
Lu Ming understood.
Obviously, another part of the area has been carved out and has become a mining area.
"Remember!"
"These mining areas are inaccessible, and there are large machines in them that are digging holes, which is dangerous. ”
"Understood?"
The teacher shouted.
"Understood. ”
The students replied in unison.
"Okay, after dinner, go back to the dormitory to rest, and start work at six o'clock tomorrow. ”
"Yes!"
The students dispersed.
After Xia Yu and Lu Ming thanked Lu Ming, they also left.
Xia Yu......
Lu Ming was thoughtful.
This voice is a little cold, and the silver-haired guy is full of ascetic feelings...... And his bow, which was clearly of extraordinary texture.
How so?
It's expensive at first glance!
It's just that a person who can't afford to use ordinary arrows actually uses such a good bow?
It's kind of interesting.
A smile appeared on the corner of Lu Ming's mouth.
However, he didn't pay much attention to others, and the time for this internship was precious, and he had to grasp it well, and he could make some preparations today.
Rise.
He was just about to go back when he suddenly saw a group of workers carrying equipment passing by in front of him and walking towards the depths of the mine.
Worker......
Lu Ming was suddenly a little puzzled, is the work here so late?
"Teacher, what are those people?"
Lu Ming pretended not to care and walked to the teacher's side, muttering, "I feel so fierce." ”
"Normal, let you work overtime every day, you are also fierce. ”
The teacher didn't care: "When I handed over just now, I heard from the staff that the energy of the mine is about to run out recently, and there is no progress in the mining area, and the above is in a hurry, these workers have been working overtime for two months in a row, if they haven't made progress this year......
"I'm afraid we're going to have to look for a partner again next year. ”
The teacher pouted.
"I see"
Lu Ming was stunned.
"Alright. ”
The teacher came back to his senses, and said to a student what he was doing, and immediately waved his hand: "Hurry up and eat." ”
"Okay. ”
Lu Ming turned around and left.
Night.
The students all went to bed early.
Although the lowest-level dormitory is simple, it also seems to have a certain calming effect, and it seems that the factory personnel also know that they can work more when they have enough sleep.
Next.
Morning.
The students rushed to the mine with excitement.
As soon as they stepped into the mine, they clearly saw that there were strange stones full of impurities embedded in the ground and walls of the mine, and this was their goal - power stones.
Integral!
These are all points!
The students' eyes were red.
Of course, the excavation of power stones is not simple, you need to use a pickaxe to get a lot of downs to get out, you must be careful not to hurt the power stones.
"Hmmm......"
"First sew with a small pickaxe, then use a big pickaxe. ”
The students recalled yesterday's "Introduction to Mining" and followed the procedure very strictly, and after a while, they finally dug up the first power stone.
It's just that......
Seems a bit too much of a drain on time?
It took a full thirty minutes to get the first power stone out!
"It must be that I am not skilled. ”
"Hmmm......"
"It's faster to practice more. ”
Students comfort themselves.
However, the day passed quickly, and by the time the evening was settled, their mentality completely collapsed.
Because after a tired and excited day of work, they were shocked to find that their nearly ten hours of work were only enough to eat!
Amusement?
Practice?
It doesn't exist at all!
