Chapter 129: Ore Veins
The moment he saw Sheen, Madre's face turned white, what he had done, how could he not be clear, thinking of the incident two days ago, Madre couldn't help but swallow his saliva with difficulty, and his expression showed a little fear: "You...... What exactly do you want? β
"What do you want? Hehe......" Lin Li bent down, with a smile on his face, staring at Madre's eyes: "Don't be so nervous, I don't want to do anything to you, but today I suddenly heard Sheen say that there is a magician named Madre, who is lacking an opponent who practices magic, I don't know if I have this honor?" β
"Really?" Madre looked suspicious, and subconsciously shrank back, I don't know why, he always felt that this guy named Ferret was particularly terrible when he laughed.
"Of course it's true!" Lin Li nodded very seriously, and his expression was extremely sincere.
But at the same time, the wind blade had already tore through the air, and a soft "whoosh" sound was heard, and the wind blade was close to the inner thigh of Madre, making a deep and long cut...... "Ah! β
I only heard a sharp scream, and in an instant, I saw the blood flowing from Madre's legs, and a large area of blood flowed out of the wound, just in the blink of an eye, the brand-new gray mage robe was dyed red, Madre's eyes were full of horror, desperately screaming, desperately covering the wound, but he couldn't hold the blood that was gushing out...... "How is it, Madre Magician, my practice opponent is good, right?" β
Lin Li said with a smile as he stretched out a hand, and he didn't see him chanting any incantations, he only felt a violent magic fluctuation, followed by a soft sound of "boom", and a flame rose violently in his hand.
Looking at the dancing flames, Madre suddenly felt a tingling of his scalp, he finally knew what this guy wanted to do, he was going to repeat the events of the day before yesterday, except that the man who was lying on the ground and wailing would be replaced by himself from the country boy.
"Don't come here!" Suddenly, as if crazy, Madre crawled desperately into the corner, not even bothering to cover the wound on his leg, and screamed in despair as he crawled to the corner: "My uncle is Dalyan, he won't let you go!" β
"Your uncle is Dalyan?" The slowly falling hand of flame froze in the air for a moment, and the raging flames had almost burned to Madre's nose.
"......Huh" The hand of flame did not fall, and finally let Madre's tightly clenched heart let go, after a long exhale, the vest was already a cold swish, Madre knew that the hand of flame just now was by no means used to scare people, if he said that he was slow for half a second, maybe it would have fallen on his chest, fortunately, fortunately, he was clever, and mentioned his uncle Dalyan at a critical time...... "Guild Grand Wizard Dalyan is my uncle, I advise you not to mess around......" Thinking of his uncle the Great Wizard, Madre couldn't help but feel a little more confident in his heart.
"Oh...... It turns out that your uncle's name is Dalyan, I thought it was called Grayan......" Lin Li nodded, and the hand of flame fell.
"Zi ......" The raging flames fell, and in an instant I saw a piece of white smoke rise, and in the white smoke, a thick scorching smell spread, followed by a terrible scream, Madre almost fainted on the spot, the hand of flame fell on his chest, the feeling was like a red-hot soldering iron, the pain was far beyond the scope of ordinary people's tolerance, at that moment, Madre even suspected that his chest had been burned...... This cruel scene made everyone gasp.
The young magicians just now, all stood there in a daze, looking at Lin Li's eyes one by one, they were already full of fear, no one thought that their own guy would do such a desperate job, Madre had already said that his uncle was the guild archmage Dalyan, but this guy didn't seem to hear it, and he went directly to a flame hand, almost scalding Madre on the spot.
Everyone speculated, what is the background of this guy, and why is he so arrogant? That attitude of not caring is as if he has not taken the Dalyan Archmage seriously at all...... What they were thinking, Lin Li was not interested in knowing at all, only to see him stand up refreshed, and patted the ashes on his hands again, only then with a smile on his face, he said very politely: "Goodbye, Madre Magician, remember to help me say hello to your uncle." β
When almost everyone, including Madre, heard this, they let out a long sigh and finally sent the plague god away...... But as soon as this thought came to them, they saw the plague god stop: "I forgot about the air bursting......
ββ¦β¦β
Then there was a muffled "bang", and Madre, who was already a little delirious, jumped up like a frog under this muffled sound, and in an instant saw a splash of blood, mixed with the red of minced flesh and rags, splashed everywhere on the ground.
After a blow in the air, Madre lay on the ground as if he was dead, and his breathing became extremely weak. Everyone clearly saw that his entire back had been blown up, and from a distance, it looked like a blur of flesh and blood, as if he had just been gnawed by a wild beast, and the blood and flesh were mixed together, mixed with a few thin strips of cloth, this terrible sight made everyone gasp...... "Sheehan, let's go." β
After doing all this, Lin Li didn't even look at Madre, and left with Sheen, this kind of small role is not worth his attention.
β¦β¦β¦β¦ When the two returned to the guild hall, Anduin had been waiting there for a long time, and he was waiting with Medellin the goatee...... At the moment, he didn't bother to report to Odwin, so he hurriedly came down from the upper floor, greeted Anduin warmly, and asked him about his intentions while knocking on the side.
However, this old guy has a tight mouth, no matter how Medellin knocks on the side, he just refuses to say what he means, just looks around with a pair of eyes, and asks two questions about FerrΓ©'s current situation from time to time, which makes Medellin tremble, and almost not be scared into a nervous breakdown, for fear that he will say the wrong thing, so that this old guy thinks that Ferrey has suffered some grievances in the Magic Guild, then it is really a big deal...... For MedellΓn, it was nothing short of ordeal.
OK...... The torment didn't last too long.
When Lin Li walked into the guild hall, Medellin was really relaxed, and now he really wanted to pounce on Lin Li and kiss Lin Li, Uncle Fei Lei, Uncle Fei Lei, you can be regarded as here, hurry up and send this old plague god away...... "Where did you kid go?" Anduin waited for a long time, he was already a little impatient, and when he wanted to count a few words from this kid, he suddenly saw a burly young man like a monster behind Lin Li, and for a while, his eyes couldn't help but show a little surprise: "Is he?" β
"His name is Sheehan, and he's a friend of mine Garros."
"Not bad, not bad." The old man nodded, and said the same words as Gray's.
As for why it was good, Anduin didn't say.
But whether to say it or not, it's actually the same, anyway, with Sheen's knowledge, it is impossible to know who praised him, he only knows that this kind old man seems to be praising himself, so he lowered his head and smirked very modestly, making Medellin on the side cry and laugh...... Anduin rarely boasted, and even when he first met Gryffindor, he just said, "Not bad." β
Because of this "good", Gryffindor at that time was happy for a long time, and everyone said that he had been praised by Master Anduin.
Look at this black tower-like country boy, from beginning to end, he will only giggle "hehe", as if he is not a legendary mage, but a bad old man who sells bread next door.
Compared with the two, Medellin was really unconvinced, and secretly scolded in his heart, damn FerrΓ© is a pervert, and none of the people who have anything to do with him are normal people...... "By the way, Medellin, I'm going to take the two of them out for a trip, and they may not come tonight, so you won't have any opinions on the guild, right?" Before going out, Anduin asked very clearly.
"No opinion, no opinion......" Hearing this, Medellin hurriedly shook his head again and again, thinking to himself that you, the old plague god, are here in person, who dares to have an opinion? It's not that you're impatient...... "Yes, you're much more sensible than Hollen's scrap wood...... Anduin nodded with satisfaction, and then he praised it in an old-fashioned manner.
ββ¦β¦β
By the time the three of them came out of the Magic Guild, it was already dark outside, and the street was so deserted that they couldn't even see a ghost, so the three of them walked along the deserted street, all the way out of Garros City, in the direction of the Nightmare Mountains. It took a long time to get to the Nightmare Mountains, and it was almost midnight before the three of them climbed to the top of the mountain along the rugged mountain road, looking at the dense forest from afar.
Compared to the daytime, the Nightmare Mountains in the middle of the night seem to be a different scene.
Many of the common demonic beasts during the day, such as the three-eyed blood wolf and the like, mostly returned to their lair, and were replaced by various nocturnal demonic beasts, the forest was dark and quiet, and the lighting on the way completely relied on the light technique released by Lin Li, anyway, his magic power was almost infinite, even if he kept the light technique, it was nothing.
What's more, with Anduin's presence, he didn't have much chance to make a move, and there were demonic beasts from time to time along the way, but most of them didn't even have time to show their faces, but they accidentally made some noises, and the old guy just went over with a burning fireball, and even the bushes and demonic beasts blasted off together.
For Anduin, the demonic beasts below level 15 are floating clouds, and they don't even need to use their brains, they are directly killed by an instantaneous magic. Along the way, I don't know how many monsters have died unjustly in the hands of this old guy, it feels like driving a steamroller on the street, not caring about anything, just crushing it.
"Huh!" When passing through a bush, Lin Li suddenly stopped, because he found that among the bushes covered with spikes, there seemed to be traces of being trampled, and if he looked closely, there seemed to be a lot of people, and the footprints on the ground were many and messy, and there were more than a dozen people by random counting.
"Sure enough, someone went." I looked at the direction in which the footprints extended, and it was just north of the forest.
At this time, Anduin was unwilling, but he found that place, what is the difference between these guys sneaking around and snatching food in his bowl? The old guy touched his chin, and the look on his face was faintly ill-willed: "Who is so unsightly......"
"Just go and see." Lin Li is nothing, anyway, he is going to the Eternal Essence Gold Vein, even if he is the first to get there, it is just a little less, he doesn't believe that anyone can shine the Eternal Essence Gold overnight.
Along the way, they soon found the north side of the forest, and before the three of them walked out of the forest, Lin Li saw it from a distance, and there seemed to be a little fire flickering not far ahead.
A wizard's eye was summoned by him, and under the control of Lin Li's powerful spiritual power, this wizard's eye seemed to be particularly flexible, and soon passed through the dense jungle, thinking about the place where the fire was lit and quickly floated away.
These people obviously came prepared, even the camp had been arranged, on a plain outside the forest, tents were connected, and in the middle of it was a bonfire that seemed to be boiling something, and the smell of food was coming from far away from the camp.
But...... There was not even a single person in such a huge camp.
Lin Li frowned, his expression was a little puzzled, this scene was really a bit weird, there should be one or two people left behind in the huge camp, it was impossible to be like now, not even a trace of life could be felt.
With this hint of doubt, the wizard's eye flew from camp to camp, and then floated to the outside of a cave not far away, which was deep and dark, and seemed to reveal an eerie chill from a distance.
After the "strange ......" withdrew the wizard's eyes, Lin Li still had a puzzled face.
He was indeed a little strange, at first, he thought that all the people had gone into the cave to mine, but just now the wizard's eye floated around the cave, only to find that the cave was also as silent as death.
"What's wrong?" The old guy was very impatient, according to his thoughts, there was no need to scout with the wizard's eye secretly, just blast over with a magic, and tear down the hellish camp first, the guy who doesn't have long eyes actually dares to grab something to eat in the legendary mage's bowl...... "There is no one in the camp ......" Lin Li shook his head, and asked with some doubts: "When you came during the day, did you find anything wrong?" β
"There's nothing wrong with it, it's just a plain and a cave, right...... My Sleep Crystal was found in this cave. Anduin thought about it, and added with some hesitation: "If there is anything abnormal, it is estimated that it is the cave, which is as big as a labyrinth, and it is cold and dark, and when I went in during the day, it took me several hours to turn out." β
"Then go into the cave and take a look?"
"Okay, but be careful, don't get separated."
Indeed, as Anduin said, this cave is really similar to a labyrinth, after entering from the entrance of the cave, it is really complicated and terrifying, all the way is winding, much more rugged than the path up the mountain, Lin Li maintains the light technique, walks in the front to lead the way, closely behind him is Sheehan, because it is too tall, he has to bend down slightly to avoid hitting the top of the cave, Anduin walked at the back, among the three of them, with his strength, he must stay at the end to deal with all kinds of accidents.
The front is always pitch black, no matter how Lin Li increases the output of magic power, the light technique can only illuminate less than ten meters, and a swishing cold wind blows in the cave from time to time, which adds a bit of gloomy atmosphere to this mysterious cave, and the surrounding stone walls are damp and wet, and I only feel a slippery and greasy piece when I touch it with my hands, and it feels like touching the body of a python.
Overall, this place is really unpleasant...... After walking through a steep slope, the scene ahead suddenly changed, from the previous narrow and deep, suddenly became like a spider's web in all directions, standing in front of the entrances, Lin Li suddenly felt as if he had gotten into a beehive.
"How did you get around during the day?"
Anduin's voice was a little embarrassed: "I walked around with my eyes closed......"
ββ¦β¦β
Lin Li shook his head, this old guy is really unreliable, counted the entrances in front of him, there are as many as seven, large and small, from the outside, the middle one, is the most spacious of all the entrances, and from Lin Li's position, you can clearly see that there is a faint glimmer inside, which is the unique light of eternal pure gold.
Since he is here to mine, of course he has to choose the road with the mine, Lin Li hesitated slightly, and took the two of them into the largest entrance.
He was indeed not mistaken, not long after he walked into the entrance, Lin Li suddenly saw that there was a faint glimmer in an empty place in front of him.
The eternal fine gold veins are generally exposed outside the surface, and few are buried deep in the ground, such as Lin Li, a person whose mineral knowledge has reached the master level, only needs to rely on its unique light, you can easily find the open vein, just like this one in front of you, Lin Li looked at it from a distance, and knew that this should be a poor mine, and the eternal fine gold contained in it was smelted out, and it could probably forge two sets of armor.
"Such a stone, worthy of your midnight run to the Nightmare Mountains?" Although the old man is unmatched in terms of magical attainments, in terms of minerals, he is an out-and-out rookie, and he couldn't help but be a little puzzled for a while when he saw Lin Li standing in front of a stone in a daze.
"This isn't a stone, it's called Eternal Pure Gold, which can be used to forge gold rods or armor, and in terms of elemental resistance, it's definitely second to none among magical metals." Lin Li took out the scroll from the Flame Robe and patiently explained to Anduin.
The explanation of "......" sounded to Anduin, it was almost like a book from heaven, what eternal pure gold, what short in armor, he really couldn't understand how this kid knew so many things at a young age...... Lin Li took out a total of two air burst scrolls, one of which he held himself, while the other was handed to Anduin: "When I count to three, you will cause the air explosion on it with me." β
"Oh......" After a series of shocks, Anduin's eyes were a little straight, he had completely accepted his fate, this kid is a living monster, you can never figure out what he has in his head, instead of worrying about guessing, it is better to be honest, he will do whatever he tells him to do.
Two air burst scrolls, respectively inserted in the two gaps of the eternal essence gold vein, theoretically speaking, the power of these two magic, should be enough to explode the ore vein, but the theory is just a theory, even Lin Li himself, has never used magic to blow up the mine, used to use goblin explosives, but after arriving in the world of Anriel, he has never seen anything like it, and he can only use air blasting to make it happen...... With the idea of giving it a try, Lin Li began to count down.
"One!"
"Two!"
"Three!"
"Boom!"
