Chapter Sixty-Eight: There Are Mines
"Ding Ding Ding"
Sweat kept dripping down his face, and a young man wiped his face casually.
"One, two, three."
The young man silently recited the trumpet and raised his pickaxe and smashed it down against the mine wall.
[System Prompt: You get Copper Block X6, quality 53]
I saw a small piece of the mine wall in front of him suddenly disappear, as if someone had wiped the rock off with an eraser.
"As luck would have it, I got 6 medium-quality copper blocks at once."
[System Prompt: Experience +65]
You can also gain experience by mining, but it is pitifully less than killing mutants.
The mined copper will be automatically put into the storage space, and if the storage space is full, the system will give a prompt and the mined copper will disappear.
When people first came here to mine, they were surprised, but they found that this method was N times more convenient, and gradually they got used to it.
The young man, who had been digging here for a day and a night, looked at the piles of copper in the storage space, and thought to himself:
"Dig for another hour, and I'll be back in the territory."
"If you go back this time, you can get about 9,000 gold coins, plus the previous deposit, which is enough to go to the Exchange Square to buy a few pieces of equipment with good attributes."
"When the time comes, our team will be able to hunt the weaker three-star mutant beasts."
The hearts of young people are on fire.
"When I go back this time, I must have a good meal, I have had enough of the "food" produced by the system, and these days, I feel like I am about to become an NPC. ”
The "food" produced by the system is just a prop to increase satiety, which is virtual, there is no physical object, and long-term use is a kind of mental torture for people.
"One, two, three."
"Ding~"
[System Prompt: You get Copper Block (Common Item) X3, Quality 45]
"One, two, three."
"Ding~"
[System Prompt: You get Copper Block (Common Item) X2, Quality 33]
"Hey, what is this?"
As a copper-yellow wall vanished, a wall of purplish-red rock with silver streaks was revealed.
"Hey, what is this?"
"Whatever it is, dig and dig first."
"One, two, three."
"Ding~"
[System prompt: Your mining skills are insufficient to collect the corresponding materials]
"Lack of mining skills?"
"Da Fei, Da Fei, come and come, I seem to have found a precious mineral material!"
The young man lowered his voice and said to one of his companions beside him.
"Your mining skills are higher than mine, come and give it a try, maybe we'll get rich in this moment."
"I just said that sharpening knives is not wrong for woodcutters, and mining skills should be slightly improved."
"Get out of the way, let my brother come."
"Copper ore with silver streaks, I've never seen it before."
Nearby, another sturdy young man walked over, raised his pickaxe and swung it towards the silver-striped ore wall.
"Ding~"
With a crisp sound, the pickaxe flicked back, leaving the silver-striped ore wall intact.
[System prompt: Your mining skills are insufficient to collect the corresponding materials]
"My mining skills are the highest among amateur miners, and I can't even mine this mine?!"
Da Fei was surprised.
"Let's go, let's go find my second uncle."
Da Fei's second uncle is a professional miner, and his mining skills are much higher than those of amateurs.
"No, Da Fei, you go to your second uncle, I'll stay here."
The young man looked left and right, and saw that no one noticed this, and his body moved, covering the silver mine wall.
Seeing this, Da Fei patted the young man on the shoulder and said in a low voice: "You should think carefully, I'll go to my second uncle and come back in 5 minutes." ”
After Da Fei finished speaking, he hurriedly walked to the mine, and in less than 3 minutes, he hurried over with a middle-aged strong man.
The middle-aged strong man is 1.9 meters tall, his arms are racing his thighs, and he can't see at all that a few months ago, he was still a waste man paralyzed in bed.
The middle-aged strong man used to be a miner who had an accident during the mining process, and the huge rocks crushed his legs, destroyed the nerves in his spines, and made him lose consciousness in the lower half of his body.
The emergence of the system makes the gray life of the middle-aged man burst out with new brilliance. When he learned that the territory had built a mining farm, he immediately reverted to his old ways, hoping to earn some gold. Buy some good gear for his two loved ones.
"Second uncle, look, it's over here."
The young man stepped aside, revealing the silver-veined mine wall behind him.
"The silver-striped rock wall has never been seen in this vein, and judging by its pattern, there should be a large piece behind this mountain wall."
"This must be a rare ore, get out of the way."
As he spoke, the middle-aged man took out a steel ore pickaxe engraved with runes from behind his back.
The steel ore pickaxe was raised, and the mining posture of the middle-aged man was tempered and natural.
"Ding~"
A small piece of the silver-veined ore wall is visible to the naked eye.
Seeing this, the two young men glanced at each other, and both saw the excitement in each other's eyes.
"Second uncle, what did you dig up?" Da Fei's eyes lit up and he couldn't wait to ask
"Stinky boy, not steady at all."
The middle-aged man came back to his senses from his daze, scolded with a smile, and then took out a piece of silver-veined ore from the storage space and shared the attributes of the item with the two young men.
[Silver Grain Copper Block (2nd Order White), quality 65, associated mineral of copper-rich ore veins, relatively rare, requires mining skills≥20]
In the academy, you can learn mining skills, which are non-combat skills, and require less experience to learn than combat skills, but require more gold.
Now in the city of enlightenment, mining greater than level 20 is already considered a top miner.
"Second-order white ore!"
Da Fei exclaimed in a low voice, he remembered the first-order gray mineral that caused a sensation in the miners' circle half a month ago: the green spot copper block.
"Green Spot Copper Block, even if it is sold directly to the blacksmith shop, the price is 1,000 gold coins a piece!"
Da Fei's eyes were hot, and his mind was also hot.
"The Green Spot Copper Block is only a first-order ore, while the Silver Copper Block is a second-order ore!"
Suddenly, a big slap slapped Da Fei on the back of the head.
"If you can't hold your breath so much, how will you get ahead in the future, will you be mining here for the rest of your life?"
The middle-aged man reprimanded solemnly.
"How can you enter a good legion like this, how can you go to the dangerous jungle battle!"
"Got it...... Second uncle. ”
Da Fei touched the back of his head, lowered his head and admitted his mistake, he knew that the second uncle was all for his good.
The middle-aged man said in a deep voice: "We can't gather here for too long, Xiaofeng, you go and dig a copper mine on the left side of the silver pattern ore wall first." ”
"The Silver Ore Wall is in a good location, in a corner depression, and you're mining to the left of it, just enough to block the view from there."
Xiaofeng nodded, took the mining manuscript and dug it up.
"How many levels of mining skills are yours?"
"I'm level 15." "Level 13."
The middle-aged uncle thought for a while and said, "It won't be hidden here for long, while others don't find out, we have to dig up as much silver ore as possible." ”
"Xiaofei, there are 130,000 gold coins here, you go back first and learn the mining skills to level 20."
"Xiaofeng, I don't have any gold coins for you to learn mining skills, here is what you found first, all the proceeds will be divided equally between the three of us, do you think it's okay?"
"No, you've already spent 130,000, I can't take so much of the proceeds!" He and Da Fei grew up wearing a pair of pants since they were children, and they have always been taken care of by Da Fei's second uncle, in his heart, this is his own second uncle.
"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up, every minute and second is gold now."
The middle-aged man said, raising the steel ore pickaxe, thinking about smashing down the silver ore wall.
