"Is this a private mine?" Kaya, who had not spoken, asked suddenly.

Minerals must be owned by the state, this is the concept of the earth. In the Lost Land, the ownership of the ore veins is like the hooligans of the earth fighting for territory, whoever has the biggest fist is whoever owns. It's just that in most cases, state-level organizations have the largest fist, and therefore rightfully own the minerals.

But for the newly discovered veins, some discoverers with better skills and ambitions will find ways to swallow them privately and get the most benefit from them. As long as you can hide it, you can hide it for as long as you can, until one day you can't hide it anymore. In order to achieve this goal, even if it is killing, it will not hesitate......

It seems that I have met such a group of people. Lin nodded, agreeing with Kaya's statement, because it was also the answer he thought was closest to the truth. However, he still said conservatively: "Although I vaguely guessed that this was a private mine, I don't know what it is." And it will make them kill people at any cost, which should be a very valuable mineral. Otherwise, at the risk of offending the magician, do this kind of thing, as long as they don't have the corresponding force, then it will be a proper thing to be destroyed by the surviving magician. ”

As the three of them talked, they continued to go deeper into the tunnel. If it was just the torches, or the little fluorescence that Harumi cast his light technique, I am afraid they would have to be cautious and grope their way forward. But Lin's improved version of the light technique illuminates the entire passage as if it were walking in a passage full of electric lights in the 21st century.

It is unusually bright, there are almost no dead spots, and it can be illuminated directly to the bottom of the passage in one shot. Of course, it is not very realistic to expect the light to turn a corner and shine into the passage behind the corner. At best, Lin just illuminates all the parts he can see.

For this reason, there are many small creatures such as geckos and lizards, constantly avoiding the sudden light. Their fleeing figures were clearly visible in the full light.

Doing so would also startle the ambushed enemy, if any. But the bigger benefit is that it removes the sense of oppression and mystery brought by the dark cave, and makes people no longer afraid of things in dark corners. And some forks and passages are also under the light, one by one.

In the past, when exploring caves or tunnels, the most common problem encountered was whether the mountain wall in the depression was a passage to a fork in the road, or just a concave mountain wall. Relying on the faint light of the dim torch or the light technique, it is impossible to distinguish it without looking closely. And if you ignore the fork in the road, you may be ambushed from behind, so you have to be careful.

Fortunately, the whole passage is lit up now. Occasionally, there are dead spots created by rocks, and in fact, there are no threatening creatures.

However, the deeper you go, there is a strange wave of power, which spreads faintly in the air. At the same time, the mineral deposits in this tunnel are gradually emerging.

On the rock wall, sparsely inlaid with crystal clear crystals. It's not polished, but it's full of mana. And in the maze land, as an associated mine, the magic stone is scarcely dotted with the main ore veins, which is a very common thing. But if you can find a vein with magic stones as the main product, then you can make a lot of money, just like digging oil in the earth.

This place in front of you...... It looks like a vein of magic stones, and all kinds of crystals are exposed in large swaths of the body. From red, to orange and yellow, the gradient changes, occasionally dotted with crystals close to green.

Since I haven't seen other magic stone veins, I can't compare the value of this vein in front of me. As for how to process the rough stone into a standard size magic stone, to be honest, no one has a concept.

But anyway, it's all money. It is said that in some places, large transactions are directly used as the currency of the magic stone. And no matter how the magic stone fluctuates in value because of its quality, no matter how low it is, it will not be low.

The most important thing is that this vein shows why those people are willing to risk offending the Dharma Master and are motivated to kill. Even strangers who pass by by by the accident look like they don't want people to leave.

Thinking of this, Lin had to sigh. I didn't have the idea of exploring the secrets of this village at first, and I certainly didn't know about this vein. If they don't have the idea of killing people and just let them go, there will be no follow-up at all.

Now I'm trapped in the tunnel, even if I haven't seen it with my own eyes. But just thinking about it, Lin felt that he should be able to guess ** without leaving ten. It was impossible for the villagers not to raid the carriage, nor to disturb the lich on it; And if you offend the former demon king, you can still escape with your life, then hell.

But he didn't want to care about the outside, Lin clenched his staff, turned his head to the two girls who were blinded by the magic stone vein, and said, "Hit your ears." You may not be able to hear that voice, but it may be a little uncomfortable. So it's better to put it on, although it may not be useful to press it up. ”

After being reprimanded before, the two girls were very obedient at this time, and looked at their teachers in confusion. Lin slammed his staff to the ground and muttered a spell. This is a detection spell that was once used in vampire castles, using the feedback of ultrasound waves to probe the terrain of buildings and labyrinths.

In the sound of the incantation, bursts of sound waves spread outward, and they kept refracting and refracting. In this continuous process, the topographical map of the tunnel in front of Lin gradually took shape.

Because he had to continue casting spells, Lin rested his forehead against the staff, closed his eyes, and recited the incantation intently. But in the eyes of the two girls, this magic stone vein seemed to resonate with something, and it shook slightly. The gravel on the ground bounced gently, and even the color of the magic stone mine seemed to flow, changing subtly.

When the spell stopped, Lin opened his eyes and looked at the topographical map of the tunnel drawn in the air in front of him, carefully studied it, and said to himself: "It's really strange, there will be some differences in the map drawn. ”

There are many references to the geographical location in the maze, so you can easily mark your location on the map. Lin looked at his location on the map and the cave he was actually in, studying the anomaly that showed discrepancies. I found that the parts that produced the color difference could be compared with the exposed magic stone veins.

"Could it be that this magic can also be used for prospecting." Lin was only surprised for a moment, and then relieved. Different materials have different performances for reflecting sound waves, and because of the difference in feedback time, the program that originally just measured the distance and then drew the point has an unexpected function.

However, the detection of sound waves should only act on the surface, how can it enter the interior of the solid. There is no piling machine used to transmit seismic waves to the interior, not to mention that even with the advanced technology of the earth, it is not so easy to detect the interior of solids. Could it be that because of the use of magic, there was some unexpected reaction? "It seems that we can focus on the excavation of this aspect of function in the future."

For such a building and maze structure drawing, it is not the first time that the two girls have seen it, of course, they can see the structure of this tunnel clearly at a glance. The pit is not deep, but there are a lot of forks, and it looks like it has been mined for a while. In addition to the mine cave where he was, there were several other mines that also had reactions that were suspected of being magic stone veins. In one of them, not only is the space larger, but even the reaction of the suspected magic stone is larger than here.

"Teacher, do you want to go here?" It was Kaya who spoke. She asked, pointing to the largest of the mines.

Lin nodded, and let the two girls lead the way, advancing to the deep big mine. Along the way, you can see a lot of damaged tools, which are discarded in relatively hidden corners. The air is filled with a fairly high concentration of power, as if it is about to form a substance, as if it has been liquefied. If you meditate in this environment, you should be able to do more with less.

And this reminded Lin of a question. Judging from their own experiences, it should not be the first time that those villagers have done this. But among the people they killed, there should be no magicians; Or the masters will be buried by earth and rocks at the entrance of the tunnel because of the wrong choice.

Because in an environment like this, what is more efficient for a formal magician than meditating on accumulating power is the speed at which power is restored after using magic. If you still don't feel fast enough, then go and hold a magic stone rough. Even if it is not cut, the power contained in it is genuine.

In other words, here, the mages can almost be regarded as having unlimited mana power. A passage blocked by earth and rocks is really not a big problem. Otherwise, if you take a gamble, you can use the apprentice-level magic of the Three Rings, any door, to open outside of your vision, and it is possible to leave.

However, considering that the movement of any door is too large, a space crossing portal must be opened before the mage can pass through. If you do this, it should be easy to be stared at and beaten by the people guarding outside.

In short, in such an environment, it is really unrealistic to want to trap a magician.

Step into the largest mine and you'll find it full of power. And the veins of the magic stones exposed outside the rock wall even began to glow on their own, showing a colorful and colorful color. It looks beautiful, but it's actually not a good thing. This indicates that the power of the place can no longer be stored and is beginning to overflow. However, this also means that there may be high-quality magic stones here.

Lin was groping for the rock walls and veins here, thinking to see if there was a way to get his hands on that 'high-quality' magic stone. But the two girls soon jumped out of the dazzling scenery in front of them. Because there was a strange feeling that flashed through their thoughts.

Looking closely, the attentive Kaya first noticed the slight throbbing of the gravel on the ground. Halumi pressed his hand to the ground, trying to find out the source of the vibration.

It's just that this source doesn't seem to need to be checked. Because the movement is getting louder and louder, and you can feel it's heading here.

"Teacher!" Halumi snapped a sigh to alert someone.

And someone is not unaware of what is happening. At least after seeing the strange behavior of the two girls, he paid more attention to the surroundings, and also noticed this inexplicable vibration. He slammed his staff to the ground, sending out an even stronger shock wave that plunged into the ground. In this way, it is hoped that the internal conditions of the solid can be clearly detected.

But this move seemed to infuriate the existence hiding in the land even more. I want to chat with more like-minded people about "The Starry Sky of the Magic Tower", pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
