Chapter 520: Sunstone Vein
In the vast desert, a mighty team went all the way south, slowly moving forward in the wind and sand.
Among this large army, there are more than 800 experienced miners, as well as 500 elite soldiers of the Guran Empire.
According to the previous situation, there was no need for so many Qur'an'an soldiers to mine sunstone, but this time the situation was more special, their prince and His Royal Highness had to accompany him, as well as the very famous leader of the new alliance, Dylan Green.
Today's Dylan is already a household name in the entire Violet Continent. Leaving aside the Ganeman Empire, the people of other countries, large and small, have always had great respect for this young man who dared to stand up and fight against Ganeman and the demons.
Various rumors about Dylan also spread quickly in the Violet Continent. Some of these rumors are true, and most of them are exaggerated, after all, how many people have actually seen Dylan himself, and how many have witnessed Dylan go all out?
However, this also shows that Dylan's reputation today can be said to be extremely loud.
In fact, His Majesty the King of the Guran Empire also knew very well in his heart that as long as Dylan accompanied Oscar and followed the miners to the depths of the desert, then there would be no problem with the safety of this team.
It's just that, as the king of the Guran Empire, he still needs to show his attitude and show his importance and concern for his son.
Dylan and Oscar walk at the back of the line, and underneath them is a giant desert dragon lizard.
This desert dragon lizard looks extremely fierce on the outside, but after being domesticated, it treats its master extremely docile and obedient to orders, and only when it is truly developed will it burst into terrifying combat power.
Dylan stood on top of the dragon lizard's broad back, looked at the vast desert around him, and said, "I admire you a lot, there is no reference here, in my opinion, every sand slope is the same, how do you tell the direction?"
Oscar pointed to the top of his head: "No other tools are needed, as long as there is the sun!"
Only then did Dylan react, thinking back to the huge "sundial" in Yangyan City, and his heart was clear.
The Guran Empire has always regarded itself as a "descendant of the sun", and they are proud of it, and they have a very high admiration for the sun, so they have always studied the sun and studied the sun. It's like the elves who have always revered the moon and the moon gods.
I don't know how long the army had been moving forward, but the old miner in the lead finally stopped.
I saw him stand still, squat down and grab a handful of yellow sand, and then walked a few steps in each direction around him, also checking the texture of the yellow sand, and finally said: "This is it!"
At his command, hundreds of miners began to dig around, and it wasn't long before one of them was heard shouting, "Here!"
Everyone heard the sound, and Dylan also flew into the sky with some curiosity, only to see that in front of the miner, the yellow sand collapsed, revealing a cave more than a meter wide, which should be the entrance to the underground ore vein.
When the old miner came to the entrance of the cave, he first put his ear close to the mouth of the cave and listened carefully to the feelings, then he took out a torch that he had brought with him, lit it and placed it at the mouth of the cave, and when he saw that the flame shook but did not go out, he nodded.
"Alright, you can go into the hole!" at the order of the old miner, all the miners began to work, digging holes and ladders, and each one of them looked very sophisticated.
Dylan returned to Oscar's side and couldn't help asking, "What's the origin of that leader?"
Oscar explained: "It's called the first lead, and it's an indispensable leader in the miners' ranks. ”
"The first citation is considered an official position in our Guran Empire, although the position is not high, but the status is not low. After all, they are mainly responsible for exploring sunstone veins, and our Gulan Empire has always regarded sunstone as a divine stone, so as the first guide to explore ore veins, it is natural that they have become extremely respected figures by the people of the empire, and some people even regard them as messengers of the sun. ”
Speaking of this, Oscar turned to Dylan: "What you just saw is the basic situation of the ore vein! ”
After listening to Oscar's explanation, Dylan basically understood the situation.
At this moment, the prime minister beckoned to Oscar and said loudly: "Your Royal Highness, we are ready, we can enter the ore vein at any time!"
Oscar nodded, then turned to look at the army leader not far away: "Send a few people down to check the situation first." ”
Soon, seven or eight people entered the cave along a long hanging ladder, and after about twenty minutes, a deep voice came from below: "Everything is normal down there, you can mine!"
In this way, all the miners began to descend into the cave in an orderly manner, and the remaining soldiers of the army followed, leaving only fifty men to guard the entrance to the cave.
Dylan glanced at Oscar: "I'll take you down?"
Oscar gave him a blank look: "Amazing how you can fly?" After speaking, his shoulders shook, and the pair of "feather" wings behind him instantly appeared, taking him into the mine at once.
Dylan followed suit.
Now that his strength has already improved by leaps and bounds, where does he still need the blessing of the "feather" magic. He was in mid-air, using the power of the stars to walk leisurely in the air, always accompanied by the twinkling of stars on the soles of his feet, looking unusually free.
Soon, Dylan was at the very bottom of the mine. After he stood still, he looked up and looked around, but saw that there was a depth of hundreds of meters, there was a cave, the space was huge, and the rocks on both sides were pitch black, which looked no different from ordinary caves, but he didn't see the slightest shadow of sunstone, which once made Dylan a little suspicious, this is simply an ordinary cave, maybe this is the first to make a mistake?
When everyone had descended to the bottom of the cave and everything was ready, the leader slowly walked to the stone wall, touched it lightly with his hand, and then took out a small stone from his bosom that glowed with golden light.
Oscar immediately explained to Dylan, "It's sunstone, and the first guide is using it to sense the purity of the vein. ”
But I saw that the first leader knocked the sunstone lightly on the stone wall, only to hear a crisp sound of "clang", and a crack appeared at the knock.
Then there was a sound of "Golala", and the surrounding stone walls seemed to have been shattered into a fragile shell, and thin stones fell to the ground.
The originally dim cave was as bright as day in an instant, and the light came so suddenly that people couldn't help but want to close their eyes.
