Volume 5 Legendary Mentor Chapter 125 Half-Orc Tomb
Ye Fengliu heard the system prompt, and the secret saying in his heart was indeed the case.
Since he found out that killing monsters in this story world actually doesn't give experience, he deduced that if he wants to score points in this bonus story world, he probably has to complete as many side quests as possible.
He had an idea just now, and cleverly set a task goal for himself in the words of expressing his desire to help the villagers, and sure enough, a side quest was triggered without accident.
The second team and others didn't want to show the villagers how to use the bug to upgrade He-Man, so they could only leave the iron cage monster to the villagers for the time being.
Then they followed the black thin village chief who volunteered to lead the way, and went directly to the Beach Mine Cave at the foot of the Zhitian Mountain.
Ye Fengliu used to use the fireball technique to consume divine power, so along the way, Shang Yi and Li Hui continued to open the way to kill those blind monsters along the way, and he accompanied He-Man to chat with the village chief.
Through small talk, Ye Fengliu learned that the Beechcraft Mine is rich in copper ore and iron ore, and occasionally some people are lucky enough to dig inferior silver and gold ore in the depths of the mine, but now most of the mine has been sealed, and the first half of the mine is estimated to be good if it can dig out inferior copper ore.
The closer you get to the Finger Tianshan Mountain, the more monsters there are, but they are all low-level monsters like the nail rake cat and the scarecrow, and such monsters are ordinary villagers who can defeat them in a one-on-one situation with farm tools, so in front of Shang Yi and Li Hui, they are simply killed in seconds.
Three hours later, the second team and others finally arrived in front of the Beach Mine.
Ye Fengliu sent the black and thin village chief back to the village, and asked him to bring the villagers over tomorrow morning to dig up the blocked mine hole as agreed. Then the second team and others carried torches into the mine without hesitation.
There are three main types of monsters in the mines: low-level zombies turned from miners' corpses, maggots and bats that have been demonized.
These monsters are no longer something that ordinary villagers can deal with one-on-one, but they are no longer a threat to He-Man.
At this time, He-Man's level has been raised to level 6 by the three members of the secondary two team using bugs, and he is also equipped with several low-level equipment produced by monsters.
So even if Seaman wants to clean up the mine alone, she has a certain chance of winning, but if she is alone, then it can be considered fast to complete the cleaning task in half a month.
Ye Fengliu naturally didn't have the patience and time, so he asked Li Hui to weave a few screens with thumb-thick steel bars to seal the entire mine and sieve all the way forward.
When encountering monsters, Li Hui also asked Li Hui to ignore it for a while, but just pushed more and more monsters all the way to the depths of the mine.
When encountering a fork in the road, he asked Shang to seal the rest of the passage with a screen, and then continued to push forward along the unsealed passage with the screen.
After such a barbaric operation, the large group of monsters that were blocked at the end of the mine, like chickens waiting to be slaughtered in a cage, were quickly turned into He-Man's experience points by the second team and others using bugs.
When the sky began to light up the next day, the labyrinthine Beechcraft Mine had been thoroughly combed by several members of the Secondary 2 team. If it weren't for the fact that He-Man had to stab one monster after another with a sword, the speed of this monster clearing would have doubled even faster.
Shang Yi looked at the steel bracelet and five gold coins that more than a thousand monsters had offered with disgust.
She threw the steel bracelet to Seaman, who was fiddling with ores, and complained to Ye Fengliu angrily: "No wonder no brave people came here to clean up these garbage monsters, they didn't give anything!" Didn't you say that good zombies can explode skill books? Why is there nothing? β
Ye Fengliu smiled bitterly when he heard this: "This is also reasonable, the zombie level here is obviously low." Maybe there will be a skill book in the orc tomb. β
Li Hui also asked depressedly: "Brother Ye, we have already cleaned up the monsters, why don't you give a hint of the completion of the task?" β
"The mission said that it must be to clean up all the monsters in the Beechcraft Mine." Ye Fengliu looked indifferent, "We only cleaned up the first half, so naturally it can't be counted as completing the task." Don't worry, the task reward can't run away. β
"There are no good mines here." Seaman also began to complain, "The best ore I have dug is also the 11th quality iron ore." In order to create high-quality equipment, the quality of the ore must be at least 15 or more. β
"In short, the ore here is so scarce and poor that it is estimated that it will not be able to feed a few villages. Looks like we're going to have to clean up the rest of the cave. β
Seaman looked at Ye Fengliu, Shang Yi, and Li Hui with expectant eyes, "Master, let's just clean up all the monsters along the secret passage." In this way, the nearby villagers were able to resume mining and survive. β
At this time, Ye Fengliu heard the system prompt sound again: "You have discovered the side quest Half-Orc Tomb, clear all the monsters in the Half-Orc Tomb, let the Beechcraft Mine resume production, and help at least 5 villages out of the existential crisis." After completing the task, you will be rewarded with 5,000 reincarnation points and a D-level plot crystal. β
Seeing that such a rewarding task was sent to the door like this, the three members of the secondary two squad looked at each other with joy on their faces.
"It's a nightmare mission! The reward given is really rich," Ye Fengliu looked at He-Man with even more eager eyes.
"Can the master do it? What do you think of me as this? β
Seaman was uncomfortable by the three of them, and thought that his request was a bit excessive, so he continued with some frustration: "Yes, the half-orc tomb can't even be explored by 5,000 elite soldiers, only the four of us are still delusional about what to get rid of all the monsters, I'm sorry master, it's too naΓ―ve to think in vain." β
"No, you're right, I'm relieved." Ye Fengliu smiled all over his face, "It seems that you have realized the truth that it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish." β
"It's easy to feed the people, but you want the people to survive. It is necessary to provide them with a comfortable living condition. β
"Princess, these days, have you ever wondered what is causing the people's current existential crisis?"
"I ...... I really don't know what Biqi is like this. He-Man's expression was pained, "Has my father been lying to me all along?" β
"I really don't understand, even if my father needs to increase taxes in order to fight against the upcoming outbreak of monsters, if he forces the people to death, then what's the point of defeating monsters?"
Ye Fengliu asked step by step: "Princess, have you ever thought about it?" What can you do to change this situation and save the people from fire and water? β
"Yes, I must tell my father about this, perhaps he has been deceived by some sinister courtier." Seaman looked excited.
"Uh......" Ye Fengliu was very disappointed when he heard this, but he still continued to ask unwillingly: "But there are less than three months to go before the White Sun Gate Competition, and then your father will pass on the throne." β
"That's right!" Seaman tilted his head and thought about it, then said with a serious face: "It's what I thought about simply, I should let my three brothers know about this situation, so that no matter which of them becomes king, they won't let the people continue to suffer." Master, am I right? β
"Uh," Ye Fengliu patted his head heavily, "It's that I'm too simple!" It's not the most difficult! β
"Master, what are you talking about?" Seaman looked confused.
"It's nothing," Ye Fengliu said righteously, "I mean, no matter how difficult it is, the masters will also help you fulfill your wishes, starting with the orc tomb, let's clean it up first, so that the people here can return to normal life." β
"Thank you, master, you are so good, I will try my best to learn martial arts and live up to your teachings." He-Man shook his fist hard, his face full of joy.
At this time, the morning sun finally rose.
The four members of the secondary 2 team, who had been waiting at the entrance of the cave for a long time, finally saw the black thin village chief leading about a hundred young and strong villagers to run over, several of whom were still slightly injured, and they should have fought with the monsters on the way here.
"You're really still alive," the black thin village chief looked surprised, "It's right for you to escape, it's okay, I have gathered all the young men from the six nearby villages last night." β
"We'll go in together in a while, and we'll never stop until we clean up the monsters in the mine. Let's take a break! β
"No need. The first half of the mine has been cleared. Ye Fengliu looked helpless, this village chief is too real, how can this kind words sound a little harsh.
"What!" The black and thin village chief was a little stupid when he heard this.
"Didn't you hear what my master said? We've already cleared the monsters in the mine. β
Seaman said proudly, "We are righteous knights, so help us dig the passage to the orc tomb as promised." We'll kill all the monsters inside, and then you can resume normal mining in the mines! β
"What, digging a passage to the Orc Tomb?" When a villager heard this, he shouted, "That's not good, are you crazy?" It's the best ...... there."
"Don't talk about Brother Yang," the black thin village chief interrupted the man's words, "I have made an agreement with these brave men. β
"If only they had emptied the Beechcraft Mine. Then I must fulfill my promise to help them open that channel. When the time comes, you can go back to the village first, and if there are no problems, I will go and inform you to come back. β
"You don't have to." The black and thin village chief turned his head again and said to He-Man with a sad face: "If you really clean up all the monsters inside. β
"Then this mine will not belong to us, and the blacksmith guild will take it back then. It's better to just dig up some low-quality ore, and maybe you can barely make a living. β
"Hah! How so? He-Man was furious, "How can this blacksmith guild be unreasonable? When there are monsters occupying them, they don't send people to clean up the monsters, and when we clean up the monsters, they will take them back? β
"How can there be such a truth in the world, don't worry, with our Knights of Justice, this Beechcraft Mine can only belong to you in the future."
When the three members of the Secondary 2 squad heard Seaman say this, their faces froze.
"It seems that high rewards are really not so easy to get. Do you not only want to clear the monster but also compete with others for the industry? What is this blacksmith guild? Ye Fengliu secretly slandered himself, his face full of helplessness.
