Volume 1, Atlanta Chapter 34, What is the connection?
"This is an underground secret passage, and this Nima is simply a starry sky!"
Caesar looked at the spacious underground passage, all around which there were all kinds of purple lights, and in the dark tunnel, it looked like a starry sky!
Every point of light is a magic crystal mine, Caesar doesn't know how much there is in it, anyway, it stretches along the purple light, and he doesn't know how far he can still see it.
"Although it is said that this is a big treasure, I can't guarantee that there will be one underground. Pete illuminated the secret passage with a torch, and then used his hand to pick up the dirt near a magic crystal mine, "Look, lord!"
The one that was revealed was actually only a fraction of it, and as Pete kept pushing away the dirt, a palm-sized piece of magic crystal ore was completely revealed.
"Lord Lord, these points of light you see now are actually only a small part, most of the magic crystal mines are covered in mud, if you walk straight in, if you accidentally step on one of the magic crystal mines......"
That's like a landmine!
Caesar nodded, indicating that he knew.
Caesar then looked at the tunnel, which didn't look like it had been excavated by hand, but it didn't look like it was natural...... It's like someone has processed it on this natural basis.
It's about three meters tall and three meters wide, like a square.
And the old Pete hammered open the big stone, which is the door of this secret passage.
"Great Lord, can you analyze it?"
"Please wait!" the Great Lord's voice seemed to be a little less electronic synthesizer, and it sounded a little girly.
"The analysis is successful, the length of the magic crystal ore vein is about three kilometers, and it stretches continuously in the mountain, because there is a thick mountain as protection, so it is impossible to trigger the explosion effect of the magic crystal ore above. ”
"But the inner part is too far away and blocked by the mountain, so it can't be detected, and we can only roughly measure how long it is by the flow of the wind. ”
There are only three kilometers that can be detected, and how many of them are undetectable?
Caesar gasped, Pete was right, it's really a big baby!
But here's the problem, they Caesar can't dig this thing!
The Great Lord System said that the current forging methods, cutting methods, and craftsmanship of this thing are only possessed by the dwarves in the world, and they have no dwarves in Atlanta, so naturally there is no way to dig it.
In that case......
Isn't this just guarding the treasure and not being able to move?
Is the meat that reaches the mouth going to run away?
Fat Pete clapped his hands, "Yes, Lord Caesar, I have a plan...... Maybe we'll lose a little bit of the magic crystal ore, but we have a chance to get a way to dig it, I don't know if you ......"
"Say!"
Pete's hands rubbed each other, with a smile on his face, and he said: "That's the case, the dwarves are actually in the mountains not far from us, if we go and invite the dwarves to come and help, it may be ......"
"No!" Before Pete could finish speaking, Rod was the first to interrupt: "If that's the case, I'm afraid that this section of the magic crystal mine will be completely remembered by the dwarves, and now the situation is different!"
Everyone in the room nodded, indeed!
The situation is different now, Atlanta is not the Atlanta of the past, Atlanta was able to maintain a good cooperative relationship with the entire Northwest in the past, but now Atlanta's strength is really too poor.
Partnerships are always based on equality of strength.
If the dwarves are worried about these magic crystal mines, then the worst outcome is that Atlanta ignites the magic crystal mines and fights the dwarves desperately!
So Pitt's method is not a next policy, it should be a next step.
"Captain Rod, you have someone to guard here, and no one is allowed to enter without my consent!" Caesar ordered.
"Yes!"
Although this magic crystal ore is a treasure, you don't have a way to dig it, this thing is like a remote-controlled bomb, you never know when it will explode.
And what is more troublesome than a remote-controlled bomb now? A remote-controlled bomb can at least find a place where no one is there and explode and fend for itself, but this thing is in the mountains of Atlanta, although the beam is not a volcano, but once it explodes, the damage caused by it will not be worse than a volcano!
Once such a huge magic crystal mine is detonated, not to mention whether the various territories of the prairie will be affected, but Atlanta is definitely gone!
"Also, Pete, you can't stop digging the bricks and limestone, you have to keep an eye on this place at all times, and if you find something wrong you have to move it immediately, no one knows where the ore will be. ”
"Philip, go to the little dark room at once, and tell Miss Caterina about the situation, and see if she wants to come out, or if something happens, I'm afraid Miss Caterina will be the first to die in our Atlanta." ”
Commands jumped out of Caesar's mouth like a cannonball, and Caesar was genuinely worried, but luckily the lizardmen and goblin catapults didn't throw the stone to this side, otherwise......
Wait a minute!
Catapults!
Caesar seemed to think of something, jumped up in the secret passage, and looked down on Liangshan!
"What's wrong?"
Caesar suddenly ran out, everyone was puzzled, and Rod hurried with Caesar.
Caesar frowned slightly: "Captain Rod, if you are under Atlanta, can you use a catapult to throw stones on this?"
Rhodes looked at the distance and height, and then replied affirmatively, "If the wind is accurate, the catapult can indeed attack here." ”
Liangshan is not very high, it can only be regarded as a hill, and the attack of catapults is generally at a distance of 500 to 800 meters!
Of course, if you calculate the distance of the parabola, you should be able to go to 1,000 to 1,500 meters, and this distance is no problem to smash rocks on it.
"I finally know why, that guy you're talking about is arranging for low-level races like goblins and lizardmen to attack Atlanta!"
Caesar spat out a sentence, looking at Rhodes with a strange look in his eyes.
Rod looked at the distance, and also looked at the secret passage, his heart was shocked, and he gasped: "That guy's purpose...... Is this here?"
Caesar shook his head, "I don't know, maybe it is! or maybe not, it's just our guess." ”
If the enemy's goal is to destroy Atlanta, then there is no problem at all to coerce and lure goblins, lizardmen, and fishmen, which are a large number of races with low strength and intelligence.
But why did he do it?
If he really destroyed Atlanta, what good would it do him?
Moreover, even the 'natives' of the people of Atlanta don't know about the existence of this magic crystal mine, so how do outsiders know about it?
There are many problems and doubts, not to mention that Caesar doesn't understand, and the Great Lord system has no way to analyze the correlation between the two.
Even though Caesar had already told Caterina about this, Caterina said that if Caesar came to her directly to ask her about anything, it would be better to hand over the lord of Atlanta to herself.
For this, Caesar is also helpless, whether it is personality, IQ or EQ, this strange woman is beyond her own existence, and Caesar is also powerless for this.
Since Caterina was reluctant to help, Caesar had to figure it out on her own.
As for the two pieces of magic crystal ore, old Pete also handed it over to Caesar, Caesar gave the little magic crystal ore that old Pete took at the beginning to Adele, girls like these shiny things, and Adele's direct descendants of the Evil Spirit Knights also have some understanding of this nature, Adele seriously told Caesar that she will definitely use it well.
Well...... I'm giving you this as if it's just a souvenir......
Caesar said with a roll of his eyes.
