Many of the teams that returned to the portal base from the black iron ore cave were still pushing tools such as wheelbarrows, and there were a lot of pitch-black stones piled up on the carts, which shimmered in the sun, this is the precious mineral "black iron ore" produced in the other world of Luoxia Island, I heard that the metal properties are extremely good, and it is extremely widely used, and it can even create "enhanced weapons", and the purchase price on the blue star is expensive.

After following the path for a while, the Blood Banner Adventurers team arrived at a new adventurer camp, the Mine Cave Camp.

It was necessary to set up camp at the gates of important treasure hunting sites and resource points, and it was clear that this was a camp built entirely by Blue Star adventurers, similar in style to the "Portal Advance Base", where the main structure of the base was wood and iron.

The cave camp was only a few hundred meters away from the "Black Iron Mine", and it seemed to be about the same size as the advance base, but it was significantly more rigorous in terms of defense, and there were several "defense towers" standing on the edges of the camp walls - yes, the reason why it is called "defense towers" rather than "watchtowers" is because these towers are not very tall, only two or three stories long, but the platforms are built wide and long, obviously so that more soldiers can stand on them.

In the direction of the entrance to the black iron ore cave, the camp is stacked with many barricades and barbed wire, and the barbed wire is also covered with a strange purple-black slime, and there are many more Nova Company security personnel who maintain order inside and outside the camp, and many people know that they are "evolutionaries" at a glance.

Xu Ping'an followed the Blood Banner adventurer team into the camp and took a closer look, in general, regardless of the architectural style, this camp is different from the portal advance base, and it is completely different from the transit camp in the middle of the island.

In the middle of the island, the transit camp converted from an aboriginal village is actually more like a free market, and the resources of the entire Luoxia Island in the other world will be collected and screened in the transit camp before returning to the Blue Star, and the location of the transit camp is also relatively safe, and it also bears the function of resting and recovering for adventurers.

The cave camp in front of me seems to be the real camp facing dangerous battles at the forefront of the camp, the adventurers who come and go in the camp are extremely busy, many of them are stained with blood, some people's faces are happy, some people's faces are lost, and many tents are set up haphazardly in the camp, and you can hear the loud snoring of people inside.

Of course, there are a few adventurer merchants who sell medicine and weapons, but the variety and quantity of goods sold are much smaller than those in transit camps.

In addition, Xu Ping'an also smelled that there seemed to be a foul smell in the air of the entire camp, the stench of highly decomposed corpses...

"Let's rest for a few minutes, and then we'll head out into the Black Iron Mine!"

Lin Quan, the captain of the contractor, excitedly announced to the team, seeing that his excitement was not tired at all, if it weren't for the fact that the whole team had been trekking for a day, he would have rushed into the mine immediately to do a lot of work - although it was already a little late, but it didn't matter, anyway, the "mine" was dark inside, and he had prepared a lot of torches and lighting tools.

Xu Ping'an took out the marching kettle and drank water, while looking at the mine camp, under the west slanting sun, you can see the entrance and exit facing the mine, there are some security personnel of the new star company gathered in line, buckets of fuel barrels are carried out, and there is a pair of plastic back barrels with long nozzles and handles on the side, at least a dozen.

"A flamethrower with a hand-cranked pump?"

Xu Ping'an recognized at a glance what these things were, very old-fashioned, hand-cranked flamethrowers.

Well, Luoxia Island is a "fantasy world", advanced flamethrowers can't be used, and it's not strange to use old-fashioned flamethrowers with hand-cranks, it's strange why there are so many of them now.

The flamethrower is definitely at the level of a "big killer" in this world, even compared with the "magician", the flamethrower's continuous high-temperature output is not inferior to the "fireball technique", and it is better than the low cost and can be operated by ordinary people.

But even then, flamethrowers are rarely used, and even if they are used to defend camps, they are rarely purchased as much.

The reason is also very simple, the flamethrower spews out a high viscosity, high adhesion, and fuel that is difficult to extinguish, even if the monster is burned to death, the flame will not be extinguished, unless the fuel is completely burned, and this is different from the original intention of the adventurer and the other world development company - the high-value items carried by the monster, and even the "treasures" that are dropped with a small probability of killing the monster are often burned in the high temperature.

Everyone enters the other world to "make a fortune", if they are all burned, then what are they doing here?

···

The rest of the Blood Banner Adventurer team was soon over, and the group walked in the direction of the Black Iron Ore Cave, but at the gate of the camp, they were stopped again. ”

It was the security personnel of Nova Company, and they could see the barricades and barbed wire fences at the entrance of the camp also unfurled by them.

"What's wrong, why are you stopping us?"

Lin Quan, the foreman of the contract, asked with some vigilance.

"We're going to the Black Iron Cave. ”

The little follower Chen Wengui added a sentence on the side.

"You're going into the Black Iron Mine Cave at this time?"

The expression on the face of the Nova Company employee who stopped the Blood Banner Adventurer Team was a little weird, but then he smiled, pointed to the other direction of the camp, and said, "Don't you see that the blockade has begun here? ”

"Then let's go over there!"

Lin Quan said with some dissatisfaction, although he was dissatisfied, he did not conflict with the personnel of these new star companies.

"Wait!"

At this time, Ding Zhaohui, the highest-ranking person in the team, shouted.

"I suggest we cancel our entry into the Black Iron Cave and just stay in the camp. ”

"Cai Xu Kun" Xu Ping'an also followed behind Ding Zhaohui and added.

"What's the matter? It's not open today!"

Lin Quan, the foreman of the contract, frowned and looked at Ding Zhaohui and Xu Ping'an.

After entering the different world of Luoxia Island today, most of the time I was in a hurry, and I only killed a few scarecrows and cat monsters that jumped out on the road, and finally arrived at the mine camp, even if I only went into the mine for sightseeing, I had to go there.

"It's like... Something is wrong?"

Wang Jing, a female magician who was originally a teacher of knowledge classes in another world, couldn't help but speak, she was looking in the direction of the black iron ore cave.

I saw a group of adventurers rushing out of the mine cave hundreds of meters away, including adventurers with various weapons and torches, as well as mining adventurers carrying mining picks or carrying baskets of ores.

When these adventurers got out of the mine, they all walked towards the camp, and it was obvious that the current "black iron mine" was only going out, and no one was going inside.

"Assemble and check your equipment..."

"Hurry up while you're still eating..."

The members of the Blood Banner Adventurer Team turned their eyes to the back, that is, the interior of the mine camp, and suddenly became more lively, many adventurer teams were gathering people, looking like they were ready to fight, and those tents where people were sleeping were also opened, and one adventurer after another got out of it.

······

It's a new week, ask for recommendation votes, don't be stingy!
