Chapter 38: Mining Squad
"Lord Death, I'll return the Bone Aotian to you now!"
Baron Edra hurriedly said, he was still secretly happy at night, he thought that Lord Death had forgotten to recall Bone Aotian, and he could use Bone Aotian for free for a while.
As a result, Baron Edra didn't expect that he would have to pay for the sacrifice for as long as the undead warrior used, and the Reaper would not allow anyone to take advantage of him at all.
"Are you sure you're going to give it to me now? You can just let it mine at night. ”
An Baichen's tone was a little regretful, and he said: "You must know that the skeleton will not be tired, you can let it dig for a night." ”
"No, no, no, I already have the undead warrior that Lord Death has specially customized for me, and I think Lord Gu Aotian needs to rest as well. Baron Edra hurriedly rejected Lord Death's kindness, and he said, "Please Lord Death recall Gu Aotian now!"
Baron Edra was afraid that if he waited any longer, he would have to pay another sacrifice for his pride.
"Good. ”
An Baichen no longer insisted on it, and through the altar of the undead, he summoned Gu Aotian back to the world of the undead.
Seeing Gu Aotian disappear into the blood-colored circle, Baron Edra breathed a sigh of relief, and said respectfully to the small black box: "Lord Death, may I use these new undead warriors?"
"Will they know how to mine?"
Last night, Baron Edra didn't waste time teaching Bone Aotian how to mine in order to learn it.
"Rest assured, they know exactly how to mine, and this is an undead warrior tailored for you. ”
An Baichen had already taught these transformed skeletons how to mine, after all, this was a major matter related to their own money, and they should not be sloppy.
"That's good. Baron Edra breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then I'll retire first, Lord Death." ”
"Okay, go dig hard. ”
An Baichen nodded and hung up the phone.
Baron Edra watched the blood-colored circle on the small black box gradually calm down and return to its original state, and then solemnly put away the small black box close to his body.
The small black box was only the size of a palm, and Baron Edra had kept it close to him these days, and he really didn't feel at ease about hiding such an important thing somewhere, and only by keeping it close to him could people feel safe.
Even when he was sleeping, he had to sleep with a small black box to sleep.
After all, this is the hope of the Edra family's rise.
After putting away the small black box, Baron Edra raised his head and glanced at the ten skeleton soldiers in front of him, all of them in different shapes, and the appearance of his hands was something Baron Edra had never seen before.
"They, can they really be mined?" Baron Edra was a little skeptical, he probably could figure out the arm function of the pickaxe skeleton, which was supposed to be a mining tool.
But the awl shape of the drill skull, he really didn't understand what it was for.
"Could it be that it smashed the stone with these two sledgehammers?"
Baron Edra circled around the drill skeletons a few times, and finally gave up on continuing his research: "Let's try the effect, I'm sure Lord Death won't deceive me." ”
"Come with me. ”
With a wave of his hand, the ten transformed skeletons lined up in a very neat line, and followed Baron Edra out of the stone castle.
A farmer stood in front of the stone castle with a long sword and armor, and when he saw Baron Edra walking out of the stone castle, he hurriedly saluted respectfully and asked, "Lord Baron, do you want to go out so late?"
Since the last time Bone Aotian repelled the knight bandits, the armor and swords left behind by this group of enemies have been collected by Baron Edra and armed several able-bodied farmers as temporary defenders of the territory.
Farmers with swords and armor are not as effective as professional soldiers, but they can at least provide a certain degree of security to their people.
"I'm going to Nanshan. ”
"Lord Baron, do you want to mine tonight? ”
"No need, let them mine tonight, and everyone can have a good rest. ”
Lord Edra shook his head, he pointed behind him, and the farmer looked behind him, and there was a "crunching" sound of bones grinding in the darkness, and out of the darkness came ten skeleton soldiers of different shapes.
Their pale bones shimmered in the moonlight, and their eyes pulsed with an unquenchable soul flame.
The farmer was stunned, he didn't speak for a long time, and with his sword in his hand, he watched as the skeleton soldiers walked past him and followed Baron Edra out of the village.
"Hurry up, everyone, get up!
"Lord Baron has summoned a lot of undead warriors again, this time there are ten undead warriors!
"Is there another enemy invading the territory?"
"I don't know, I heard that Lord Baron is going to take them to Nanshan to mine. ”
"Do undead warriors also mine?"
The news spread quickly, and although it was late at night, most of the people in the village already knew that the Baron was going to take the skeleton soldiers to Nanshan to mine.
Aren't undead warriors supposed to be in charge of fighting and protecting their territory?how can they do such a menial thing as mining, that's what we should do!
The peasants were curious, and in their eyes, the warrior was a powerful and noble status, defending the territory with life and glory, and should not do such menial work.
No matter what the world is, human beings have curiosity, and the farmers spontaneously gather together, follow Baron Edla, and run to the place where the Nanshan vein is.
Baron Edra did not stop the peasants, and he led the skeletons all the way to the area where the vein was located.
"This is the secret stone vein, the exposed secret stone has basically been mined, can you dig out the secret stone buried in the soil?"
Baron Edra looked at the skeleton soldiers behind him and asked, "The stones in Nanshan are very hard, and even with sharp metal swords, the speed of excavation is very slow. ”
The ten skeletons stood still, all of them looking at Baron Edla, but none of them spoke.
They don't have the most basic thinking and cognitive abilities like Gu Aotian, they are just the most ordinary level 1 skeleton soldiers, they know how to follow orders, but they don't give feedback.
Baron Edra and the skeletons stared at each other for a long time, and finally had no choice but to give up, he picked up a black secret stone from the ground that was exposed on the surface, pointed to the veins of Nanshan and said: "Go to mine, I want this kind of stone, don't destroy it." ”
The command was received successfully.
"Crunch, crunch. ”
The skeletons strode to the area where the vein was, and the pickaxe skeleton and the drill skeleton began to work together, and the sound of "clang, clang!" was heard incessantly, and the rubble splattered and the dust flew up.
What shocked Baron Edra and the farmers the most was the drill skull, which they had not been able to read, the drill skull raised its arm, and the two bony drill bits "buzzed" at high speed, and the air around the drill bit arm produced some slight twisting fluctuations.
"Poof! poof!"
As the drill bit penetrates deeper into the ground, the piercing sound of excavation sounds, whether it is dirt or gravel and debris buried in the ground, it cannot stop the power of the high-speed rotating drill bit.
"Oh my God, how the hell do they do that?!"
Under the incredulous gaze of Baron Edla, it took only a few breaths for a drill skeleton to dig a large pit two or three meters deep. Around the vicinity of the large pit, the glow of black crystals shimmered, and the secret stone mines were all over the place.
"That's it!
Baron Edra shouted excitedly, and under his orders, the pickaxe skeleton jumped into the pit, constantly knocking out the secret stone mine attached to the pit wall, and then throwing it out of the pit.
"Hurry up, everyone, bring the cart and load the secret stone back to the village!"
The farmers were very excited, and one by one they began to help the skeletons spontaneously, and the Baron had long said that these secret stones were good things that would make us stronger and richer.
"Lord Death didn't deceive me, they are really fast enough to mine. Baron Edra stood in the moonlight, his eyes glinting with excitement, and he was very satisfied as he watched the black secret stones being transported back to the village.
The special arm form of the pickaxe skeleton and the drill skeleton was, in Baron Edla's opinion, the embodiment of true divine wisdom.
With the help of these skeletons, Baron Edra is confident enough to dig up more secret stones, and then find Lord Death to summon more and more powerful undead warriors.
"Lord Baron, do you need us to help them mine?" one of the farmers suggested eagerly, and he was very excited to see the skeleton soldiers' efficient mining speed, and wanted to help them.
"No need. ”
Baron Edra shook his head and turned to greet everyone: "Everyone have a good rest tonight, and leave a few people to take turns to assist the undead warriors in transporting the secret stone to the village." ”
"From today on, the matter of mining will be handed over to the undead warriors, and everyone can come down easily. ”
Baron Edra smiled and said, "With the tireless skeleton soldiers who don't need to eat, the inefficient farmer can do something else.
"Long live the Baron!"
The peasants cheered excitedly, and they gathered around Baron Edra in the direction of the village.
"I wonder how many secret stones they will dig out after digging all night?" Baron Edra glanced back at the skeleton soldiers who were toiling in the night, and the sound of "clang" was endless, and Baron Edra felt that this was the most beautiful music in the world.
Just when Baron Edra was thinking about a small calculation, An Baichen was also lying on the bed calculating today's income.
