Passing through the entrance of the mine, which was densely covered with cobwebs and guarded by a large number of spiders, Li Mo, accompanied by Kerrigan, Medusa, and Nasus, slowly walked into the tunnel of the mine.

The winding tunnel stretches down for an unknown distance, flanked by uneven rock walls. While observing, Li Mo continued to move forward along the tunnel, almost reaching a distance of more than 100 meters, and then saw the internal entrance of the mine.

Nasus led the way with a torch. When Li Mo stepped into the inner entrance of the mine, there was a vast emptiness in front of him, which even made Li Mo amazed.

He had never seen such a huge underground mine cave as a giant palace shrouded in darkness.

Li Mo looked up, but he couldn't see the top. At a height of about a dozen people, there were already layers of thick fog. A large number of faint Ambilight flickered on the top, as mysterious as the starry sky at night.

In the open direction in front of you, at the end of the road are many forks in the road.

Just a cursory glance shows that there are as many as seventeen or eighteen of these bifurcations. Every fork in the road has traces of excavation. The long ones have been excavated deep mineral areas, and the short ones have been blocked by gravel.

"Why are some open and some clogged?" Li Mo asked back.

"The Moon Creek Mine has been around for an unknown number of years. Nasus replied respectfully, raising his torch and circling around, "By the time we took over, there were already countless forks in the road. ”

"What hasn't been blocked is the new mining area that we have opened up. What is blocked is the old mining area. Nasus said as he led the way, "These clogged mines, the fog ahead, make them inaccessible. ”

Nasus came to a fork in the gravel and held a torch inside, saying, "There were once miners who wanted to go in and see what was going on, but they were swallowed up by the fog without a trace. Therefore, in order to avoid further accidents, we still maintain a blockade and prohibit entry. ”

Li Mo's visual perception was naturally much higher than that of Nasus, and he stared inward with his farsighted pupils, and the range he saw was also filled with black fog, as well as countless subtle floodlights, as if there were countless mysterious phosphorus fires swirling inside.

Nasus continued to lead the way, and came to the fork in the new mine where a dozen kobolds worked, and said as he went:

"These newly opened mining areas are stable and worth digging into. Of course, when we take over, there will also be new mining areas to dig out the fog, so we can only block and give up, and continue to choose other directions to excavate. ”

Li Mo nodded thoughtfully, looked around, and once again felt the huge size of this Yuexi Mine Cave. It is not even an exaggeration to say that it should be no problem to build a small kingdom underground.

Kerrigan and Medusa also wandered around with great interest. The two female vice-gods, one is a snake and the other is a spider, and they are born with an extraordinary interest in this kind of underground cave.

The kobold miners who were still working expressed their respect for Li Mo's arrival. No matter how dissatisfied he was before, he didn't dare to complain at this moment.

Because the director of the Moon Creek Mine, the most ferocious relative of the Baron, had already been poisoned and killed in front of their eyes. There is no doubt that the entire group of miners has had a psychological effect of intimidation and repression.

Li Mo walked to a huge pothole, which was filled with mountains of ore and abandoned rocks, and there were many slags beside it, like a small hill.

"The predecessors who used to work in this mine should have smelted iron ore and copper ore, which are the waste residues left behind by them. Nasus came to Li Mo's side.

Li Mo's eyes were always staring at these abandoned mines, and a satisfied smile was already on his face. He even broke open a rock and looked closely.

The inner layer of the gravel is grayish-white, and when you rub your fingers, there is powder overflowing. This represents a rich calcium carbonate content, that is, these are limestones.

As a modern keyboardist, Li Mo is sure that with limestone, he can make "cement".

In order to create an impregnable city base in this wilderness area, cement is an indispensable raw material, and it should be a raw material that transcends this era.

As long as he has a mixture of limestone, clay, gypsum, slag and other mixtures, and has high temperature conditions, Li Mo can get the necessary "cement" weapon for farming.

Li Mo stood up and looked around at this huge crater, as if looking at a treasure.

If all the ore and residue in this pit were crushed to ash, he would have all the mixture he wanted. You only need to think about the high temperature again, and all this can be turned into cement.

"How much time will it take to gather all the miners and grind all these waste rocks into powder?" Li Mo asked Nasus when he turned around.

Nasus had a look of embarrassment on his face, "My lord, they are good at mining, but the work of crushing stone into powder is probably very difficult in a short period of time. ”

Li Mo expressed his understanding that it was indeed not a simple matter to grind all the large piles of abandoned limestone like a small hill in front of him into ash.

"Your Highness, my iron-clad spider swarm should be able to do it. ”

Kerrigan said suddenly.

"Oh! try it!" Li Mo smiled happily.

Kerrigan walked over to the crater in the rock, the bone wings behind him vibrating slightly. Immediately, a large number of dark brown spiders with large heads and small bodies like fists, like a tide, covered the rocky pile.

These dark brown spiders, with jagged pincers on their heads, gnawed frantically at the rocks at the whims of Kerrigan.

In an instant, the dust filled the air, and piles of rocks and slag, as if collapsing, slowly but steadily sank. It's just more than 70 spiders, and the crushing effect achieved is comparable to that of an automatic stone crushing machine.

Nasus watched in amazement, his torch holding his hand trembling. If these iron-clad spider swarms pounce into the living crowd of dogheads, that kind of tragic situation is unimaginable.

"Fortunately, the honorable lord was merciful and did not oppress the miners. Nasus prayed in his heart to calm his mind.

Li Mo paid attention to the gravel effect of the Iron Spider, and turned to Nasus and ordered, "Stop all mining operations, gather all the miners, and go to the swamp to collect clay." Then, transport a large amount of water in, ready to use. ”

"Yes!" Nasus hurried to do.

"Your Highness. Medusa, who had been silent for a long time, asked curiously, "What do you want these rock powders for?"

"Build walls. Li Mo said with a smile.

"Rock powder to build walls?" Medusa and Kerrigan looked at each other, both puzzled.

Time ticked by.

All the kobold miners, according to Nasus's instructions, transported the dug swamp clay into the mine in baskets. Then buckets of water were brought in and placed in front of the rock pit.

As the iron-sheath spider colony picked up speed, the last layer of limestone also disintegrated into powder. In the entire huge stone pit, there was suddenly only a pit full of white ash.

Li Mo waved his hand happily: "Pour the clay and water into it evenly." Pay attention to the agitation, I need a sufficient proportion of lime slurry. ”

The experienced miners, who had already been arranged, each holding an iron rod, poured clay and water while stirring vigorously according to Li Mo's request.

Medusa had the upper hand by Kerrigan before, and at this moment of course she is not far behind. With a finger of her hand, dozens of black-scaled snakes sprang out of the darkness, all of which burrowed into the huge mud puddle.

With the help of these black-scaled snakes, the miners were able to reconcile the mud with much more effect. Even these snakes are more effective than humans, after all, they go deep into the mud.

Li Mo smiled, he really didn't expect that his two female deputy gods would actually become assistants in the development of science. It's not the kind of gold medal fighter who fights the sky and the earth and the air in the traditional story.

Everything was ready, and the perfect mud full of sticky and rippling mud was displayed in front of Li Mo's eyes. Li Mo sniffed the smell of the mixed mud that was about to succeed, and turned around and said, "Call Zilai too." ”

But after a while, Jiraiya, who had been notified, hurriedly came to Li Mo's side.

Li Mo looked at Jiraiya, looked at its forehead, the evil taste ninja strap, and the word "oil" that represented the toad oil fire, and smiled:

"Jiraiya, if I'm not mistaken, after you evolved and awakened, did you master the technique of controlling flames?"

"Yes, Your Highness, thank you for your new life. Jiraiya said respectfully, but also lowered his voice, "It's just that it's still far from being fully controlled, and it can't be accurate to attack." ”

"I don't need your attack for the time being, what I need is enough temperature. Li Mo took the iron ore handed by Nasus and threw it in front of Jiraiya, "Can you melt iron?"

"I can try. Jiraiya nodded, holding the other wrist with one hand, concentrating, grasping the palm of his hand, and slowly exerting his strength on the iron ore on the ground.

Its face became a little red, and the word "oil" on its forehead began to shimmer. A scorching flame invisibly rushed out of its palm and slammed onto the iron ore on the ground.

"Transcendent?" Nasus was amazed.

At this moment, everyone quietly retreated and gave way to enough range.

The temperature of the invisible flame manipulated by Jiraiya was constantly spilled on the iron ore. But after a while, the palm-sized iron ore had already begun to melt into iron juice.

"Very good!" Li Mo high-fived happily and pointed to the mud in the huge pit, "Next, it's up to you to play." I'll help you to bake this mud into a dry powder!"
