Chapter 71: The Nodal Mine
You Yuan and Hugo came to the Norder pit according to the route given by the system, there was no danger along the way, they encountered several wild beasts, they were killed effortlessly, they didn't get anything good, and they were not injured, but when they rode the Kodo Beast across the river, they met a group of crocodiles, and the Kodo Beast was slightly injured, and You Yuan solved it with a primary treatment technique, which was not difficult.
There is also a village and a town in the middle, in order to save time, you Yuan did not make any extraneous branches, but just noted down these two places in case you come to explore later.
The Norder pit is located in the middle of more than a dozen continuous stone mountains, it can be seen that this is a long-excavated pit, the entrance is easy to find, the two of them tethered the Kodo beast to a nearby woods, and just about to turn down, they saw a group of strange-looking humanoid monsters crawling out of the pit.
You Yuan and Hugo immediately hid behind the Kodo Beast and secretly observed.
The system identifies the monster in front: [Kobold, Norder absenteeism, level 20-22. 】
You Yuan confirmed the number, a total of four, and whispered to Hugo next to him: "This thing is also called a person?" It looks like a human, that is, it can walk upright, but those two hands are still a little interesting, and they can be compared to monkeys. ”
Hugo explained: "They are called kobolds because they speak the human language, they also have intelligence, although they do not have a high IQ, they are not very demanding, they are very obedient, they are very adaptable to the environment, and they rarely get sick, especially immune to most viruses." ”
You Yuan was surprised that Hugo knew so much about kobolds, but when he thought that he was a young elf, everything made sense.
You Yuan wanted to say something, but saw that Hugo had summoned four skeleton soldiers and went straight to the four kobolds. It is worth mentioning that the level of the skeleton soldier is the same as that of the master, which is level 23.
Almost without the two of them doing it again, You Yuan saw that the blood bars of the four kobolds were decreasing, and they soon fell to the ground. The system prompt appears after three seconds:
[Kobold 4 killed.] 】
The two walked out and looked around, and found no additional kobolds, You Yuan lowered his head to decompose the corpse, picked up four small pockets, and opened them one by one in order to obtain the task items, there were only some coins, in addition to a few pieces of malachite.
They went straight down, the pit was not too deep, there was a ramp next to it, but the two of them jumped directly from it, and there was no danger for them to jump directly at a height of five or six meters.
Below is a flat land of about 20 square meters, with some tools and messy daily necessities, you looked around, there was nothing valuable, and the two went in directly.
The inside of the mine was not straight, but potholed and crooked, with torches at intervals, as if they had been lit by spells, as there was no fuel supply.
After walking nearly 100 meters inside, you can hear the sound of pounding stones, and occasionally there is a sound of talking, but you can't hear what is being said, because it is all uneven stones, the sound is distorted in the transmission process.
However, after turning a corner, he soon found that there were two kobolds mining less than ten meters in front of him, and the system identification was level 20, Hugo did not summon skeleton soldiers again, but directly went over with a ghost fire, and knocked out two-thirds of the blood volume of the two kobolds.
You Yuan chanted the lightning chain in the process of casting the ghost fire, and after the ghost fire, the two kobolds just turned around to run, and they were burned by the lightning chain head-on, and the lightning chain bounced twice between the two kobolds, and they were all taken away.
System: [Kobold 6 killed]
The two of them continued to walk forward, at least 2 at a time, and at most 5, and the two of them dealt with it very easily, and before they were halfway through, they completed the task of killing 30 kobolds, and now all that was left was to find Plan 1.
Since coming in, You Yuan has received a small map of the mine from the system, and he and Hugo are represented by small red and blue dots on the map, so it is not difficult to walk down this way, as long as you follow the map.
Although the task of killing the kobold is completed, they still need to keep killing monsters in order to find the quest items. You Yuan found that the kobold here also have a division of labor, most of them are [kobold absenteeism], occasionally there will be a person wearing a different costume, and the system shows [kobold overseer].
You Yuan guessed that the schedule should be a more important thing, and it stands to reason that it should not be placed on the kobold absenteeism at the bottom, and there are still many supervisors.
So they stopped fighting when they encountered kobolds who didn't take the initiative to attack them, although they could level up by fighting monsters, but this was too much of a delay, You Yuan still wanted to go back earlier, and there were still many things to deal with in the territory.
They focused on the kobold overseers, who were generally a little higher in rank than absenteeism, level 23 or 24, but kobolds were not a race that was good at fighting, and after an hour, the entire mine had bottomed out, and they killed all the kobold overseers they met, but they had not found any quest items.
"Did we find the wrong person?" You Yuan said.
Hugo looked around: "There should be something we haven't found!" You Yuan secretly looked at the map, and it seemed that he hadn't fallen anywhere! But he didn't say it to Hugo.
So the two of them walked to the innermost flat area of the mine, which was obviously wider than any other place in the entire mine, and it looked like someone was working here, but there was no one here at this time.
You Yuan turned over everything here, but there was still nothing.
It's similar to the space where the water mirror was when Hugo was rescued, but it's much smaller and much more tattered.
You Yuan suddenly remembered that the water mirror appeared on the wall, yes, the wall, Hugo also thought of this, and the two began to search the wall carefully at the same time, but they found nothing.
At this time, there was a sharp scolding voice: "Lazy! I'll make you lazy! I've been out for so long, why are there so many people missing? You said! Then came the sound of a leather whip whipping flesh.
You Yuan and Hugo immediately followed the sound to find it, and sure enough, on the way they came, You Yuan looked at the small map again, and a large yellow dot appeared on it, and he guessed that this person must be related to the plan 1 he was looking for.
They ran directly towards the dot, and the strange thing was that the dot was clearly next to their location, how could they not find it, and the sound was so clear.
The two of them walked around the dot for a long time, and suddenly noticed a large abrupt rock that they had passed several times, and looked sideways, and it turned out that there was a very long staircase behind them, leading to the next floor.
From here, they quickly found their goal.
System Identification: [Head of the Nordel Mine, Goblin, Level 27. 】
"Goblins? Is this also a race? The mine where the kobold worked, how could the person in charge be a goblin? You Yuan was surprised by the information given by the system.
[Goblins are one of the races on the mainland, and the history is ancient......] The system talked about tuberculosis again, and began to state the racial history and specialties of the goblins at length, Balabala a lot, You Yuan immediately secretly said "quit", the system screen disappeared instantly, Hugo had already started the first attack, and You Yuan did not dare to delay.
The target immediately turned around when he saw someone attacking him, but when You Yuan saw the weapon in his hand, he almost dropped his jaw.
